Is this Table Placement correct?

If you don't print often it should fit nicely on the top shelf of your closet until you need it next time :)
I print one or two times (multiple pages) per week. btw I don't know yet what to do with that extra space:)

You have a PC case with a window - if that wasn't the case, I would suggest placing it on the floor and save some more precious desktop space.
To be honest I'm not interested in rgb so I switch it off all the time. But, the bad side is on the floor the dust will accumulate much more quickly than the top..

There are other things to consider too. You lose some legroom and easy access to ports.

An advice for anyone that keeps (or thinks about putting) the PC case on the floor: it will collect much less dust if it's raised on a pad, at least several centimetres above the floor.

Regarding the subwoofer: room acoustics is tricky. You can use a tool like this audio sweep generator to listen through a range of frequencies and find out where the sound becomes very weak (that's less annoying) or very loud and boomy (that's more annoying). Then you move the subwoofer, maybe tune it differently if it can be tuned, and try again, and again, and again.
 
Here is the latest state..
Thank you for helping me to decide!

Depending on where wires are for sub is how you place it. I have CL SB X230 set and the woofer is supposed to sit to the left.
 
This is the latest decision, hope you like it.

PC on the desk, sub on the floor against the wall where your pc currently is so your neighbours all around you can hear it and you get to take advantage of better acoustics (because its against the wall)

My vote:
PC on the desk (right) and sub in the right corner on the floor.
 
You have room, do something like this and sub on the floor

Sorry but I don't.

When it comes to audio frequencies, the lower the frequency, the less directional it becomes. For this reason, even in high-end audiophile-quality sound systems, the LFE (low frequency effects) subwoofer(s) is(are) often placed off to the side out of the way.

Actually the above sentence is irrelevant. What matters is subwoofers use large speakers that use large drivers (magnets) and magnets can have a very adverse affect on RF (radio frequency) signals. I can think of no worse place to put your wifi antenna than on top of a subwoofer. :(

The subwoofer needs to go on the floor and the antenna up high (even mounted on wall is good). You don't have room for both the PC and the subwoofer on the floor, so as FE recommends, put the sub on the floor and the tower on your desk. But do NOT put the antenna on top of the tower. The next worse place to put a wifi antenna is next to (or on top of) a big metal object.

Well I appreciate these excellent informations.
I will re-arrange my table.

Actually my intention is to have more minimalistic design.

Pretty hard when you cannot hide the components.

I will say some sort of cable organizers or sleeves will tidy it up a bit. That said, I have a love hate relationship with cable organizers. I love 'em when all done and they look nice (or at least not ugly). But inevitably, as soon as I get them perfect, something happens and I need to undo all that work because something changed in my setup. :(
