I have this
Here is what my setup looks like http://i.imgur.com/hg5aMnE.jpg
Just a cheap on from amazon. I will be upgrading when I move out to a long straight desk but this will work for now.

I have the 48"x31" bekant and love it. It's a sturdy, slim, and the beveled edges don't kill your arms if you rest on it. Super easy to put together, especially considering its from Ikea.

I've since upgraded to 3x27" monitors and love the setup. I have mine a little different, with the third almost 90 degrees to my left, but that's mostly just for music/soccer in the background.
I considered making my own L desk from Ikea with linnmon table tops (woulda been like $70 or something ridiculously cheap) but after being able to see/feel the tops, I was put off. They're rather thick with sharpish edges and I didn't feel it would be nice in the long run. More like a kitchen table than a desk if anything.
I considered this guy as well: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009YPRRZ8/
I believe it's on sale in r/buildapcsales atm too.

Im currently using This Desk And it works fine, except for 1 issue. I can only fit 2 of my 24" monitors on it currently. I could put on a 3rd but the way the desk is built you kinda have to sit farther to the left/right of the desk depending which way you face so 1 monitor is alittle to far away for it to be a comfortable fit. I hope I explained it well haha its in a kinda of awkward position.
Got this desk: http://www.amazon.com/Ameriwood-Office-L-Shaped-Shelves-9354303PCOM/dp/B009YPRRZ8 near fall super cheap and Very sturdy! Also alot more room than the one in OP. No quality issues yet, you do have to build it though.
Ameriwood Home Dakota L-Shaped Desk with Bookshelves, Espresso seems popular and a pretty good bargain.
How bout this one?.
Honestly I am using Lifetime tables. As long as you are not putting anything super heavy on them they are fine. If you have nothing but a computer to put on your desk, then having a real 'desk' would be better.
This one looks pretty cool for your price range.
I'm looking for a computer desk, most likely a corner desk like this
I want to spend under $200, but I want something stable that can fit 2 27" monitors (currently have 1) and my desktop (NZXT Phantom 530). I don't want the desktop on the ground (because dust is mostly ground level) and I DO NOT WANT TEMPERED GLASS as I have seen way too many disaster photos on here. I would build my own, but I'd rather it look nice.
Any recommendations?
It's [this desk.] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009YPRRZ8/ref=oh_details_o02_s02_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) As for the desk itself, it looks pretty good but the build quality leaves something to be desired. Pretty flimsy but probably what you would expect out of a desk in the subpar $100ish range.
This looks like a sturdy desk at a good price

This is the one I ordered but I wouldn't recommend it. It's way too small for me and my chair and the proportions are odd. The longer part of the L where I wanted to put my monitors and keyboard was far to narrow to the point where my M&KB was practically right on top of my monitors. The other side that OP is using has a good width but the length isn't far enough. I can't push myself in without my leg and chair hitting the shelf. I really wanted an upgrade from the fold up table i've used for years but after buying this I now miss the space I once had and want to go back.

Hmm sorry about that! This better?

It's on my Wishlist, looks good in this pic.
Edit: don't buy that specific desk, get the same one from somewhere else seeing that there's a $120 shipping fee.
I've seen some recommendations for this desk on this subreddit. Looks like it'll fit well in a corner. There's also this one on amazon, I think it looks well made.
Thanks! It’s this one: Ameriwood Home Dakota L-Shaped Desk with Bookshelves (Espresso) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009YPRRZ8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_KrYZzbG0XCA2A
