For a standard desk: a 36x18 inch pad covers the keyboard and mouse area together and leaves room for monitors. For a wider desk: 40x20 or larger covers the full working area. A full-desk pad (59x31 for a standard 60-inch desk) provides a uniform surface but requires more care to avoid bunching. Start with 36x18 for most setups.

A desk pad protects the desk surface from scratches, provides a consistent mouse and keyboard surface, and improves the aesthetic of the setup. For any desk that you care about protecting (wood, glass), a desk pad is worth it. For people who primarily use a separate gaming mouse pad, the benefit is aesthetic, the pad unifies the look of the desk setup.
