Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, everyone. Welcome to episode 176 of the NCC podcast, the official podcast of the NCC community. This podcast recorded live every Friday at 10 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on the official NCC Twitch is available to stream on demand on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and SoundCloud. My name is Michael.
Starting point is 00:00:18 As always, is Ivan. How are you doing, Ivan? Doing fantastic, Michael. Happy Friday. This is the first set-up podcast of the year. so I'm excited to see all the setups people contributed and submitted via our Discord channel here. Before we get started, I do want to make some quick announcements. First and foremost, if you are not in the Discord server, please pop on.
Starting point is 00:00:48 That is how we collected all these setups that we're going to be talking about today and showing off. And that can be found at Discord.g.g. slash NZXT. and everyone who submitted a picture of their setup will be entered into a giveaway to win an NZXT Pucci Flesh doll. Mike is showing it off there. Yay. And then the other announcement is if you are not in the Discord server and you're just watching live. It's cool. Don't worry.
Starting point is 00:01:20 We are also going to be doing another giveaway. And you can enter that by either clicking on the PIN message there in the chat. or typing an exclamation mark giveaway in the chat. And Darkie just pointed out that the chat is in sub-only mode, Michael, so you might want to fix that. I don't even know how to take that off. Wait, isn't Darkie a mod? He should be able to do that.
Starting point is 00:01:53 You look confused, Mike. Hold on, let me see. It shouldn't be on that. What the heck? What the heck? Sorry, hold on, y'all. The most only chat. No, it says that it's on it.
Starting point is 00:02:19 It says that it's on regular. Yeah. Here, let me, let me. Okay. There we go. I just disabled it. Okay, thank you. What the heck?
Starting point is 00:02:37 On my screen, it says that's fine. I literally see it's like, it's fine. What the heck? I don't know how you turn it on. Maybe, so just next time, slash, subscribe is off. What the heck on my screen? It says that's fine.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Oh, sorry, y'all. That's my fault. There we go. There we are. All right. Well, let's go ahead. So, yeah, I guess I should also mention, too, maybe you turned it off on by accident. During yesterday's stream, you were playing foul world.
Starting point is 00:03:08 So if anyone missed that stream, I guess look at the recent streams and you can watch Mike play the Powell World game. Yeah. Looks pretty fun. All right. Sorry about that, y'all. But we are ready to go ahead and go into the setups. We really need some theme music for this, I think. We do.
Starting point is 00:03:33 We do. We'll figure, we'll make something. We'll put you out my way. Okay, so we're going to go ahead and do the rating of the setups that you guys submitted to us. Discord. Yeah. What I did was I basically, um, instead of like resizing, because it, the pictures looked really bad when I like tried to like download it and re-added I'm just going to grab it from the
Starting point is 00:03:56 drive itself so you'll see like the link the name and it will just resize it from there so don't don't worry too much about that yeah I'll announce the names I've and so it's just a little easier because I'm going to be clicking around so this is from Aris and this is there PC setup all right Aris what do you think uh uh so So what I'll start off with what I don't like about this setup before I tell you what I do like about it. What I don't like about it is this chair definitely needs to like get a good chair. That's a good chair. That's a well, well made or well sat in it.
Starting point is 00:04:45 I mean, it looks comfy, but if I were to like come over to this person's house and Arise was like, have a seat. I would be like, I'll just stand. Thank you. I do not want to sit on that. Whatever's going on there is just too much, man. Like at some point, you really do need to, you know, either fix the chair or get a new chair, right? So I guess that I don't like that. And then the other thing I don't like is despite having two monitors, you know, the main monitor is like super tiny.
Starting point is 00:05:20 And I mean, that's the monitor you're going to be playing video games on most of the time. I would switch the monitors. I would rather have a small vertical monitor instead of having a huge vertical monitor and a tiny primary monitor. But besides that, you know, the setup's not bad. It looks like it's in a cozy little corner there. The PC looks like it's nicely built.
Starting point is 00:05:43 I don't see a bunch of messy cables anywhere. It's got a boom arm, speakers. It's a blue snowball. Nice of mine. Yeah. And besides the chair, and the monitor, like, this is a really nice setup. And this is not a roasting episode, so I don't want to, like, roast the chair too much.
Starting point is 00:06:03 But that is the one thing that stood out to me. Yeah, honestly, I kind of agree. I mean, honestly, it's what you got. It works great. Oh, also to help with the mouse pad doing that weird wavy thing, if I remember correctly, you put water on the edges of the mouse pad, you flip it over and you put weights around it. and after like a couple hours to maybe even a day, it should flatten out.
Starting point is 00:06:26 That helps a lot with like that little like wavy part. You do that with carpets. Oh, it's an ice cube. It's an ice cube. You put a little ice and then you just let it sit there with some weights and it'll climb out. I think TTC, Beppo said it, right?
Starting point is 00:06:41 I think instead of maybe replacing a chair, because it looks like a decent chair, you can just put a car seat. You put like those little pillow things. I think it works out great. I mean, the chair does look. It looks like it's very, very plushy. I honestly, I, I think it's a good one.
Starting point is 00:07:00 What was your rating? I would give this a 7 out of 10, which is, you know, not a great score, but not a bad score. It's right in between. I'll be around that. Like I said, biggest reason is just like the chair can need some work. And also just gaming on that tiny little monitor. I don't even care what game you're playing It's just not gonna be fun
Starting point is 00:07:23 You know just switch the monitors around Yeah I feel like I feel yeah I feel like this one would be That's like a 24 inch It's just like a 1618 inch monitor Yeah just goes around I'll give this a I'll give it You know what as a standard
Starting point is 00:07:40 We're just gonna make this like a good standard I'm gonna give it a five Not trying to be mean or anything This is just a good standard setup You can play on it It works great can do improvements, but also it's not bad. So I'm going to give a straight five just to make it easy.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Okay. All right. And then I think I see Astro. Astros in chat. I have your setup in the chat. I saw your name and I'm like, I'm ready to show this one out to everyone. Let's see Astro the Furry's set up here. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:08:17 All right. Well, I know this I know this is not a This is not a roast my set-ups episode But I'm sorry, Astro the Furry I'm going to have to roast you a little bit What is that? This setup is just way too messy
Starting point is 00:08:35 Yeah, it's just I mean, forget about what's even on top of the desk Look at like underneath the desk You can't even sit down there and put your feet there Come on. What is that? You got to move It's old
Starting point is 00:08:51 stuff that I'm sure he doesn't even use Yeah So all right Where's Astro? Astro You got to give us You got to give us some You got to give us some context
Starting point is 00:09:01 Like what's underneath here You know Where is the PC? Well it says right there NZXT H5 Flow got it from my Yeah so I see No but where's the physical Is this the fiscal
Starting point is 00:09:16 That's not the I don't think I don't think they have a PC going on right there. Oh, this is it? Yeah. Lenovo thinks that are M83. Is that, oh, you
Starting point is 00:09:28 are you using a laptop with a monitor? Oh, no, it is a PC. Where is it? What if the PC is underneath that stuff underneath there underneath the desk? I were wondering what it was. Wait, is it, yeah, is Astro, is this thing, the
Starting point is 00:09:43 the Lenovo PC here you have? I'm just, I'm just or maybe it's the switch. The switch could be connected there. All right, I sure you got. Yeah, okay, so the thing on the bottom is the PC
Starting point is 00:09:59 just without the case and then you're going to switch it into the H5. Okay, gotcha. Okay, well, if that's the case, that's the worst possible location you could possibly put that because, number one,
Starting point is 00:10:13 that's where your feet go, and number two, it's on the carpet and it's definitely not safe. So, Astro the Furry, I'm sorry. I'm going to have to give this a one out of 10 because this setup needs to be
Starting point is 00:10:29 completely overhauled. Apart from putting those parts in the case that you just have right there, you know, you need to really clean up this mess and organize your setup a little bit. Sorry, Astridor the Furry.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Definitely, after you fix this, resubmitted, and show us what you did. And for those of you, who are asking in the chat where you submit your setups. You can submit your setups via our Discord server, Discord.g.g slash NZXT. Probably too late for us to get to them today, but next time we do this,
Starting point is 00:11:09 that is where we collect these from. What is, is this popcorn? It looks like a... Or it looks like something. I don't know what this is. But yeah, I agree. So sandwich wrapper. Okay. Astro.
Starting point is 00:11:27 I'm not going to give it a one because it's a honestly, it's not a bad setup. However, I feel like there could be a couple things that you could do, obviously, cleaning it up, getting rid of everything. Two, I think what you could do is get rid of all this, push the keyboard a little bit to the side so that you have mouse space. because you have a good mouse pad. They have a keyboard. Yeah. Parton there. Let me just put it there.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Oh, yeah. Yeah. You know what? Actually, yeah, you have a little keyboard thing. Does this pull out? Is this uncomfortable? How do you sit? You sit with your feet on top of the PC?
Starting point is 00:12:07 You can't sit there. No, you can probably fit your feet. Like, your knees are just bent like that. I feel like you can do that. But yeah, you got to move this. You got to clean it up. The desk is fine, I think. You just got to get rid of all this here.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Literally just get rid of this, and you can push that out. My feet is on to PC. Oh, my goodness. Astro. Astro. Remood pose. Oh. I mean, I guess that's a footrest, but yeah, I think it's cleaned it up.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I'll give it. It has potential. I'll give it a 2.5. I mean, yeah, the only way, the only way to go from. here is up for sure. My Lenovo PC is little profile and Lolo has their own motherboard size, so I have to buy brand new stuff for the NCCKs. Honestly, I
Starting point is 00:12:58 think with this, I think it's kind of worth your, your Lenovo is only $100 used or $193 refurbished on Amazon. So I think it would be a good idea just to maybe
Starting point is 00:13:14 just redo a lot of stuff. But I'll give it 2.5. It's got potential. Yes. That's very, very generous of you. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I mean, hey, if it works, it works. From Jakey CMH. Let's see, Jakey. All right. All right. Okay. Let me try to zoom out a little bit. See the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:13:46 So what I like about this is I am a huge fan of L-shaped desk. Specifically for this reason here, is that you, You can put a lot of stuff on your desk and it's not in your way that you're not using all the time. Like right there they have their joystick, they have their VR goggles, they have their PS5, et cetera. And it doesn't get in the way of their primary gaming area where they have the keyboard and their mouse and their speakers and their dual monitors, et cetera. It's awesome. I love L-shaped desk. What I don't like about this setup is the cable management is really sloppy.
Starting point is 00:14:30 The PC is not only on the floor, it's on the left side of the desk, which definitely I get it, because you have the little window there, but I always feel like PCs should be on the right because it's a right-handers world, to be honest. So if this was my setup, I would put the PC on top of the desk where the L is. And I would probably get like a little, a little like side desk compartment type of thing that you just put like underneath the right there. And then I would put my PlayStation, my joystick, my controller, my VR set there. So yeah, so I would give this, I would give this another seven out of 10, which is. Not bad, but it's also not great.
Starting point is 00:15:25 I think it needs to be reorganized and cleaned up a little bit. The reason why I laughed was because Miko Ann had a really funny comment. Rip armrest. Because armrest is off. Unless the care does that. I just noticed that. Yeah, I see. Yeah, Mika pointed out.
Starting point is 00:15:49 I looked at it. I went, wait a minute. I thought this was the mic or something. No, this is the armrest. Why is it all right to the left? Maybe it's a chair that does that or maybe it's broken. But I agree. I think it's L-shaped deaths are great.
Starting point is 00:16:04 It helps kind of keep all the stuff kind of compartmentalized. Two PCs or two monitor setup. You know, you got your PS5 and everything. But yeah, maybe instead, how about this? Maybe instead of having all this here, like all the controller stuff, do the same thing instead, put the PC here. instead and then have the little compartment for all the controllers and stuff because where you need is height and the PC's way taller than all this you can probably put this underneath because you have a lot of space and also to help with that you can put like something here like a little flat board or like a little little shelf um that isn't like you know hitting your feet or anything like that so it blocks a lot of the cable management and it also acts of storage so that helps a lot too i Underneath my thing, I have a little, like, cardboard cutout that blocks a lot of the wires on that.
Starting point is 00:17:00 I'll have to get cable management. Just hide it. It definitely needs to get reorganized because even, you know, you have a speaker right in front of your monitor there, which is your primary monitor. So it's like, do you really want to be staring at a speaker while you're playing video games? Probably not. Yeah. So, yeah, this thing just, it's a nice desk. You just got to reorganize everything.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I'll give this a good six. I think it's good. Can improve, but it's good. It works. You have mouse space. I think the biggest thing for me is, like, you have to have mouse space and keyboard space. And this thing has all of it here. Nothing in the way.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Everything from the PC is literally there. It's perfect. It's great. Great PC. From Ikea. I don't know how to pronounce it. Sorry, I'm misprime. Ikega.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Okay. So this is one of the reason why I did the ghoul. thing so that I can like zoom in a little bit on this. A little tough to see but here I'll try to why are you bugging out? There go. Okay. So
Starting point is 00:18:06 I can't really see. It looks like there's an H5 flow I think underneath. Or I should I have RGV? You're a flow or an elite. I think it might be the elite. I think it's the flow. It looks like it's perforated. No, it is the flow. Yeah, there you know. Perforated.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Yeah. But let's see. So go for it. Go for it, Ivan. All right. So right off the bat, I love the desk. I really like the type of desk style, which is basically just like a large, big table. Because I love putting my arms on my desk like that.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Me too. And I also like the three monitor setup is also. I think, very well placed on there, where you have your primary monitor at center, another secondary monitor to your left, and then your vertical monitor to the right, I think perfectly placed. Even though I like this lamp, I don't necessarily
Starting point is 00:19:14 think it's in a good spot, to be honest. It's like blocking that vertical monitor. I also feel like the, mouse pad would be a lot bigger. It is a relatively small mouse pad for the size of the desk, but not a deal breaker. The PC on the floor, I mean, I definitely prefer to have your PC on your desk, but in this case, you know, when you have three monitors, your space is kind of limited no matter how big your desk is, so it's not too bad. I still think your PC should be on the right because I know some people in the chat here we're talking about, I feel like the PC should be on the left,
Starting point is 00:19:54 The reason why I think it should be on the right is so you can see inside of it. Because if you put it on your left right here and you sit down, you're going to see the back panel. Whereas if it was on the right hand side, you will see the internals of your PC, which, you know, like if you have a crack in, you can see your temps or if it's getting dusty, you can actually see that and know like, oh, I got to take this out and clean it and things like that. So it's not ideal to have it on your floor, but I think if you are going to have it on the floor, I would definitely have it on the right. just so you can see inside of it. Cable management is not fantastic, but it's not horrendous. I think it's average. I would give this a solid eight out of 10.
Starting point is 00:20:39 I mean, yeah, I mean, I am a huge proponent of having a thicker desk than a longer desk. Yeah, the longer desk, it helps with having, like, placing a bunch of stuff. A thicker desk allows you to literally, like, this is what I do. Like, when I, when I rest my arms on, my, the desk goes all the way up to here. And the desk goes all the way up to here. So literally, I can put my full arm on the desk and I can, like, rest it, which helps a lot, helps with a lot of risk trouble, which a lot of gamers down the road get carpal tunnel. So, yes, I agree with that. People honestly aren't bad because I think, I mean, this part, you can't really control because you have a wired mouse.
Starting point is 00:21:24 a wired keyboard this is the thing that's not that bad and the headset i also understand you can't really deal you can't really cable manage a headset because like you're going to be moving around a lot maybe moving around your room a lot so i understand that um yeah i agree with the pc on the left or the right i'm always on the right because you can see into the glass it's really nice it's pretty it's made to be on the right side um someone in chat someone uh someone's in chat said this about the lamb. But yeah, the lamp has a lot of, like, I love this lamp. Very good mood lighting.
Starting point is 00:22:03 And also has, like, some cool buttons, too. Yeah, here from a TTC, Beppo. Like, you can see, like, it has, like, settings on it. So you can kind of change it. And it looks like there's even, like, a controller for, like, maybe the RGB on this or something else. I love that. Set up looks great.
Starting point is 00:22:19 I love to dual monitor with the vertical here. It looks like there's a camera here. Mike's great Mike's set up's good I also noticed that this chair maybe like a Herman Miller chair like a really nice Herman Miller so that's awesome
Starting point is 00:22:34 yeah I'm gonna give us a good solid eight solid eight but yeah I think what could change you getting a wireless headset to get rid of this long cable helps out a lot maybe cable managing the wire
Starting point is 00:22:48 to like up to here with little cable ties and let it kind of drip down all the way here and then yeah I mean honestly I love this I love the setup I think it would be a nine or a ten if you got rid of one of the monitors
Starting point is 00:23:02 and you put the PC on top and you had more room for that lamp and got a bigger mouse pad yeah but having a triple monitor setup it's hard to beat a triple once you get that triple monitor it's like you want another so I get that as well yeah maybe maybe put the if you're going to have three maybe you want to have the two horizontal ones stacked
Starting point is 00:23:21 and then moving more to the left Oh, so it's like one here, here, and that there. So it makes it kind of like a big box. That would be kind of nice. Yeah. Yeah. Is under the desk really dark to hide something? I mean, I can't really see, but it looks like there's cable.
Starting point is 00:23:39 From what I can see, you guys can't really see on stream. It looks like these are cable managed. Like, it looks like these are tied here. So I think it's cable managed. There's definitely a monster underneath there. Yeah. It's really dark. But not bad.
Starting point is 00:23:53 I'll get a solid eight. All right, from Happy Panda, 79. All right, Panda. Just be Happy Panda. So this isn't a setup, but I wanted to bring this. I know a lot of people sent their PCs,
Starting point is 00:24:08 and thank you for sending the PCs, but we wanted to show setups. However, I wanted to get your opinion on figurines inside cases. I also ask people in chat as well about that. I love it. I think everyone should have a little, personality with their computer
Starting point is 00:24:24 whether on the inside or outside. You always want to make your PC unique. Well, at least I do. That's my philosophy. Every time I get a new PC, I always, one of the first things I do is I'll put something inside of it or I'll put some stickers on there. I love that.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I also agree. There's a lot of people, especially on Reddit, despise having figurines in cases. Like if you say that you're, like, killing the airflow. The case looks awful. This stuff looks bad.
Starting point is 00:24:56 No, it helps. Yeah, exactly. It makes it feel more personal, makes it feel like it's your PC. So, like,
Starting point is 00:25:04 there's a huge thing on Reddit that I saw about, like, someone to have, like, the people and the Reddors were, like, they were shredding this person in the comments,
Starting point is 00:25:14 but no, it's fine. It's good. Having things either thing is, that makes it your case, right? You don't have to follow what people wants. So do what you want.
Starting point is 00:25:24 It's a really nice build, except for one thing, I think. You peel? No, not even that. So they have really nice cable extensions for the 24 pin on the motherboard, and then for the graphics card, right? And then they have really good cable management, except for some reason those two random fan cables on the right that go behind the cable management bar
Starting point is 00:25:52 and then... Oh, these. And then one other cable that's like on the right side of the RAM. Like those wires should go behind the case and motherboard. Like you don't need to see those wires. And besides that though,
Starting point is 00:26:07 I mean, the build is really, really clean. I mean, I'll give us a good... Since we don't see the setup itself, we'll give it a good six. Six, really? Yeah, because we don't have the setup, though. We don't have the, we don't have the desk and everything. So as the thing itself, yeah, but if we see the setup, it'll probably be like a seven or an eight, you know.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Okay. Well, since there's no setup, I'm going to give it a zero. And I'll rate the build. I'll give this build an eight out of ten. It would be a nine if you just move those cables. behind the motherboard and it'll be fine. Yep. I agree with that. The build itself, good, good, solidate.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Yes, and it looks like it's an 8-700. It's an 8-7, actually. Oh, it is an 8-7. Okay, great. Oh, right, because of the shroud, right? You can tell by the cable management bar. You're not ready for this, Ivan. Are you ready?
Starting point is 00:27:17 From Grieco. Get ready for this, y'all. From Critico. From Critico. Oh, my. Oh, my. I can smell this setup. Yeah, you can definitely smell something here.
Starting point is 00:27:42 You can't. I mean, I can't. I really don't want to like, you know, roast too many setup. But, uh, it's definitely out of Google. This definitely deserves to get roasted. I mean. I mean, a brand is that? There's just like so many things that are wrong with this.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I guess we'll start with the obvious. I mean, it's really, really sloppy. You know, it's like cables everywhere. Like, can't tell what anything is plugged into. You got your socks and underwear drawer right there. Like with not just, you don't only just have your PC on top of your, like, sock and underwear drawer you have socks and underwear is just sticking out out
Starting point is 00:28:30 Mr. Mr. Cocoa has a really good point. You know, I'm just saying it's not a floor PC. Yeah, it's not a floor PC, but maybe this PC should be on the floor, to be honest. It looks like, is that like a Windows XP box? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:53 Right there. It's a Windows XP box. an x x20 r o or x2 or i don't know exorro thing but it's definitely an old this is definitely a a meme one which i just want to throw out but i also want to point out the uh it's like it's hovering in the air the physical power strip is just in the air Yeah, this is, looks like it's just an accident reading to happen.
Starting point is 00:29:28 But the reason I said I could smell this setup is not because of the underwear or the socks. It's because of the desk. I don't know if you guys remember back in like the early 2000s, I guess, even like the 90s, these like wooden desk stations, they all had the same unique smell. And like to this day, I can still smell those those desks. It's kind of funny. I think I mean you can smell it too
Starting point is 00:29:55 because there's coffee beans right here I assume Yeah I mean Who said in chat Someone said that Where oh yeah So where are the cables going to What are these leading to
Starting point is 00:30:09 Because those are definitely Those aren't any controllers Those are clothes What's underneath the clothes that is charging Or a better question is do we want to know Yeah. The answer to that question. I don't think we do.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Yeah, I'm going to give this. I mean, I feel like they're trolling this. I'm just going to give it straight up, straight up zero. Yeah, I got. Yeah, exactly. It's definitely, it's definitely not his because, I mean, no one has Windows XP or these type of things. But it's funny. I'll give it a one.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Just because it's funny. It's funny. Yeah. I'll give it a one. I mean, with that monitor, you never know. They could be a CSGO player. Oh, like a CS1. 0.6 player.
Starting point is 00:30:57 From Hambino. Very The great Hembino right here. Beautiful setup. All right, there we go. Yeah, this is what we want to see. So actually, this is a good setup because
Starting point is 00:31:12 you know how I was saying earlier? I feel like PC should go on the right. The only exception to the rule is if you have it in this orientation on the left, and that's because it does two things. It does two things. It hides the rear of the case so you don't see like a lot of cables and whatnot. And then on the front of the case, you actually see your RGB fans. So it's really, really, this is the only time I think having you on the left is it makes a lot of sense.
Starting point is 00:31:46 And I like this setup. I agree. When it makes, when you have your PC as like part of the aesthetic rather than just. like, you know, to the side, like, oh, there's the PC. Like, it is part of my aesthetic. Like, the RGB matches it. I have my figurines and it is a centerpiece on my thing. Fantastic.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Yeah. And this setup here is a vibe. You know, it's like he's got, or I don't know if it's a heat, but they got paneling on the walls. They got LED lighting going on. I don't know what's on that shelf, but they have a shelf up there. It's like the mics right here, which is really cool. I've never seen that. A mic on top of like a shelf above to get bring it down.
Starting point is 00:32:29 That's cool. That's dope. Yeah. And I see a couple of comments you're saying like it's only one monitor, but all you need is one monitor. You know, anything more than one monitor is just like a nice to have. You really only need one monitor to game. I'm not going to deduct points for just having one monitor.
Starting point is 00:32:46 I want to zoom in on the right high definition photo, by the way. Yeah. I love the figurines inside the case. Big Naruto fan. Oh, I didn't even notice like the, it was the gigabyte GPU that's white as well. So it's all white as well. I didn't even notice that.
Starting point is 00:33:02 It's a really nice PC right there. Oh, it's like it's all, it's all Naruto stuff. That's dope. That's dope. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:11 That's probably one of the nicest builds I've ever seen, to be honest. It's super clean. Mm-hmm. I guess the one thing that I think could be improved is the mouse pad is
Starting point is 00:33:22 definitely not the right size for this setup because you have part of it going over your monitor stand and then you have the other part of it being stuck underneath your PC. So it's just not the right size. You're going to need to get a smaller mouse pad or a bigger desk. But it seems like this setup here is like in a cozy little corner. So you probably can't get a bigger desk. So I would just get a smaller mouse pad. Or you could get a, uh, uh, from a monitor stand. Or monitor stand. He just,
Starting point is 00:33:57 it's just plugs right here and it gets rid of this little thing. Yeah. So I'm going to give this a nine out of ten. I would say just either get a smaller mouse pad so it doesn't get in the way. Or like Mike said, mount your monitor on the desk so you can move that mouse pad over. But it's a really nice setup, especially the build.
Starting point is 00:34:22 I mean, this, zoom in on that PC again, Mike, because this PC, I don't think it gets better than this, to be honest. It's like, beautiful. Perfectly coordinated, perfect cable management, perfect figurine placement and everything. It's like an awesome, awesome PC build. Yeah. I'm going to give us a solid nine. We have two things. Maybe three.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Okay, so two, I agree, the mouse pad. You know, maybe I'm not a big against having the monitor legs on top of the mouse pad. Honestly, I'm not against that. I don't like it when it's underneath. But the setup itself, the RGB, the panels, the vibes, the RGB fantastic, solid nine. The second thing, I don't like having it here because it kind of restricts the airflow coming out. Although it is a part of the aesthetic. And if it's, you know, I mean, their temps are still good, 54.
Starting point is 00:35:21 38, still pretty good. But if you can, get rid of this, may you put it to the side, if you can. And yeah, I am a proponent. Yeah, you only need one monitor, but I would, I think if this had a monitor stand, one monitor here and a second monitor to like the side here, this would be like a tent. This would be a like perfect 10 in my opinion. But it could be. You know, maybe I'll have room for it or anything like that, but solid, solid.
Starting point is 00:35:50 not great setup yeah good job the wall panels a wall panels are really nice yeah dude the wall panels are great from on cakes poncakes what you got okay this is a very minimal setup and it's it's perfect to be honest this is like super minimal simple clean organized not a speck of dust on it. You know, you got your PC on the desk, on the right-hand side, exactly where it should go for the reason I stated earlier. The mouse pad is the perfect size for that desk. The desk is tiny, but they make perfect use of that tiny space.
Starting point is 00:36:52 The only thing I think that can make this setup better is a bigger monitor. The monitor looks very, very small for the setup. And you do have the space to get a bigger monitor, but not a deal breaker. I mean, I could play video games on that monitor. And caveat in the chat saying, no speakers or headset. And to be honest, you don't always need speakers or headset, depending on what you're using your gaming setup for.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Not every game It's going to require you to listen to audio. Some games, you literally just, you don't need to hear anything. But, yeah, I think for me, this is a 10 out of 10 just because it's like everything is perfectly placed and how it should be. The only thing I think could possibly improve this is just a bigger monitor.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Yeah. I think I'm going to give this a solid eight. As because it's just clean. It's great. It looks good. It works. I do agree that there's, I think they took things out just for the photo.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Like there's no side panel right here. I assume it's just so there's no glare in the photo. I understand that. No headset is odd. But, you know, maybe they just have like, you know, earbuds and just plug it on top of the thing, you know?
Starting point is 00:38:23 I agree. bigger monitor, maybe even two. Or maybe they keep their peripherals, like their headset in that drawer right there right here. Right in the desk, yeah. Maybe it is a wireless and there's like something in the back that's already plugged, but like, dude. The only cables are these and I assume it's like you can't bend those because it's an older monitor.
Starting point is 00:38:45 But dude, these are the only cables in this entire thing. That's crazy. It's also a really nice looking case to be. on it. Yeah. I like the front. The front of it looks cool. And I think, you know, some people do remove the side panel just to get better
Starting point is 00:39:01 airflow or sometimes it breaks and they don't even bother replacing it. But, yeah, I think this is a really nice setup. I hope that it is cable match and they didn't. No, it's on. So, yeah. So the cables are just really well done. I'm going to give a solid eight. There could be improvements, bigger monitor, you know, maybe, you know, adding a little
Starting point is 00:39:23 bit of like, you know, maybe like a little potted plant here or something like that. So it's not just pure clean. But I'll give it eight. I'll give it a solid eight. Well, Buzz King. Buzz King. Wasn't that your nickname in college, Mike? When you were a shoot-kees?
Starting point is 00:39:45 All right. This is also another clean setup. All right. So first and foremost, I love this giant mouse pad. It covers up like the, majority of the desk and the beautiful part about it is that it doesn't get in the way. Like the other setup that we saw with the big mouse pad, you know, you had part of it over your monitor stand and part of it stuck underneath your PC, whereas this setup here, you have a
Starting point is 00:40:19 giant mouse pad and like it's not getting in the way. Perfect. I love the big monitor as well, front and center, you know, where it should be. And it's not like too big, it's not too, but it's big, you know, it's a really big monitor. I don't even know what size that is. It's probably like a 32 inch monitor, I think. Probably like a 20. Yeah, it's a high 20 or low 30 monitor. Yeah, it's pretty big.
Starting point is 00:40:52 Yeah. And then you got your speakers right on the left and right of there. you have a ring light, you have a boom arm with the mic, you have your controller on the desk, really nice keyboard, custom key. Yeah, that's that nice keyboard. Love the colors on it.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Yeah. Wrist guard there and everything. This, and also, the other thing I really like is that you have this big desk, big belts pad, big monitor, and then you have a little PC. Yeah. I love that.
Starting point is 00:41:29 It's cool. I'm a huge fan of ITX builds, and I think that might be, I think that's a fractal case. I think so. It's one of the new ones that just came out with. Yeah. Really nice case. So, yeah, to me, this is a 10 out of 10. I don't possibly know how this setup could be improved.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Um, it's awesome. I would love a setup like this. Mm-hmm. I agree. I gotta give it a solid nine. I don't say 9.5. I think this is the next one I've seen so far. I don't want to give a solid 10 until it's something that I personally like, but.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Oh, man. Your standard is too high. This is awesome. This is definitely a 9.5. Like there's there, I literally have no complaints. Like, yeah, there's wires, but like at that point, like, who cares? Everything else is so clean. I mean, there's only really.
Starting point is 00:42:26 one wire and that's the keyboard and one of the left is your microphone yeah exactly so it's like it's good yeah I mean yeah I mean I literally have no complaints I guess you know what you could do what you could do to make this cleaner
Starting point is 00:42:42 you get a custom because you have a custom keyboard why not just get a custom cable for it so it's a little tidier yeah and then for that microphone cable you know, just tape it or something
Starting point is 00:42:58 to the desk on the back so you don't have it running across your desk there and then this thing would be super clean. I also agree with Mr. Cocoa Nutter. It is a little bit low to the ground to me because for me when I game my monitor is like high up because or those that don't know,
Starting point is 00:43:16 your monitor should be eye level. Like the center of your monitor should be eye level with however position you're gaming. So like when I lean back and I game my monitor straight in the center. it should be a little higher up. Just a little bit higher up. But, I mean, maybe, maybe they are,
Starting point is 00:43:32 maybe it is in the center of the screen and it works, good, good for you. Beautiful. But, yeah, I mean, this is a great PC. This is a great setup. Good job, Buzz King. I see him in chat.
Starting point is 00:43:47 Deathridge. Let's see your, let's see your setup, shall we? Solid. Solid. Solid. Solid. Solid setup. I am trying to figure out
Starting point is 00:44:04 how this, it looks like the left-hand side there is their closet. Yeah, it's the mirror on it. And then their bed is on the right. I'm just trying to figure out the situation. Yeah. So it looks like closet here, bed here. Well, actually, what is this? Is this storage?
Starting point is 00:44:29 Yeah. So there's definitely in a... Yeah, no space. A small, small space. But Death Rage also makes the most of it. And I think they do it in a really, really like, clever, clever way. So, you know, like in a way,
Starting point is 00:44:52 you've got to do as much as you can with what you got. And I think Death Rage does that here. You know, you don't have much space. So obviously right off the bat, you know, You got to figure out how you're going to put all this gear together. And I think they were smart by having one really long monitor that covers basically the whole width of the desk. And then your secondary monitor on top because you can't have them side by size. You just can't with this, that's this size.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Well, I guess you could if you had two smaller monitors, but this is definitely a better setup. But I also like the fact that, you know, they got a small mouse pad. You know, I know a lot of people always go for like the biggest mouth pad they can possibly get because, you know, it looks cooler and everything. But if they had a really big mouse pad here, it just, it would not, it would not work. It would just get in the way. And they have a small mouse pad, full-size keyboard to the left of there. The PC, yes, it's on the floor. However, I'm not going to dig points for that because it is on the right.
Starting point is 00:45:56 And there's also no space on the desk. So there's literally like nowhere else you can put the PC. The only thing I don't like about this set up Death Rage is like it's blocking whatever it is you have there behind the closet. It looks like you have, what is that, a printer? In like some storage compartment. It's a printer, router, et cetera. Oh, well, I guess you don't really need to access. that stuff all the time.
Starting point is 00:46:27 You don't really eat that. All right. So I'm going to give this a, I'm going to give this a nine out of ten. Wow. Yeah. And it's because even though, yes, I've seen or we've seen setups that are like, I want to say, I don't want to say much nicer, but, you know, that have like, you know, better desk and more space and all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:46:57 I think the way Death Rage set this up is perfect for the space that they have. I agree. I'm going to give this a 0.5. Actually, no, you know, screw it. It is a 9. I think it is a 9 because I agree with Ivan. You don't have a lot of room
Starting point is 00:47:15 and you are making use of it. Like, I understand you can't put your PC on your desk. I understand that, like, this little corner is just, you're just going to shove into the corner because, you know, you got to work it. But dang, man, this with how little you have, you make really good use of it. And the RGP and everything is so good. What I want to know, Death Rage, is when you're playing video games, do you ever just look to your left and look at yourself in the mirror there?
Starting point is 00:47:46 Like, flex or something? Do you ever freak yourself out on accident? Or, like, oh, my God, if you have like a flashbang in the game, you get like double flashbang from the side too. You're like, oh, God. Honestly, yeah, this is solid, solid, solid setup. I love it. Yeah. Actually happens.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Yeah, solid-nine. Funny. All right. From Jessica Phantom Hive. Jessica Phantom Hive. And would you see, Jessica. Oh, my Lord. This looks like my current setup, actually.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Well, Jessica, I'm sorry, but I'm just going to straight up say this is going to be a zero for me. Even though it does look like you are probably a very productive person because I see you have your notebook, you have your pen, you have your notes going on. It's like you're working on a PowerPoint presentation there. but this is like a really really sloppy and unorganized setup I mean I don't even know why you have a second monitor there with like a zip lock bag hanging over it you have stacks and stacks of paper you can't even put like a couple water on your desk that's how messy it is um trying to show yeah a little poop emoji too yeah yeah It's just, it's extremely messy. And I feel like if this were cleaned up, it would be nice.
Starting point is 00:49:40 If you just got rid of all the stacks of paper and put everything where it should be, you know, like right there on your left where you have like just clutter. Like, why not keep your notebook there? So you have an actual place to write notes and then you can have, you can use the mouse for. that keyboard, sorry for that laptop you have there on that stand. Yeah, this is a really, really
Starting point is 00:50:10 messy setup. So I'm going to give it a zero out of ten. I think, I think, you know, with what they got, I think we give her a little extra points. I'm going to give it a two. There's stuff that definitely can be approved. Lots of cleaning. Lots of clicking. Also, the big thing that for me is that I don't
Starting point is 00:50:30 see a keyboard here. So you're typing and doing like this. That's very awkward. So that I'll pull out keyboard stand. That's where they eat their cereal. So like, if you had
Starting point is 00:50:46 like a little keyboard and mouse setup, I would like that, but definitely just clean it up. I think if you clean this up, it would look so good. It will look so, so, so good. Because it would be nice.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Yeah, it'd be nice because you just have a little monitor or a little laptop stand, you have your mouse, you have, you know, your school supplies over to the left, full empty space to the left. So you have something to do to move. It would be great. It would be good one. Oh, yeah, buy an HDMAR, connect the monitor to your laptop. Yeah, you can put your laptop like over here and then this monitor can use both.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Yeah, exactly. Yeah, needs a lot of work. Needs a lot of work, but it's possible. All right. Let's get through a couple more of these. Table flip. So this I found and I went, huh? Whoa.
Starting point is 00:51:40 So it looks like they have... Is this a bed? Yes, it's a bed. So they lie down and get this. I don't even know what's going on here. Honestly, this may be a move. Yeah. I don't know whether to be shocked or depressed.
Starting point is 00:51:59 So, like, I imagine table flip, like, sleeping, and then they wake up and they just, like, get on their stomach and, like, they're on their PC, and, like, now they're in game mode. Is that what's going on here? I think that's how it works. Like, I think they have the game lying down like this. Honestly, this may be, this may, yeah, yeah, Lauren, they're living in 2050. This may be, boo. I mean, this is definitely unique. I've never seen a setup like this in my entire life.
Starting point is 00:52:36 I will say, I love that computer case, whatever that is. It's like super old school. It's like it belongs in a hospital in the 1980s or something. It's super old school. Yeah, I don't even know what to grade this thing because it's so weird. It's so odd. Because look, look, there's something here too. There's like a small divot or like a table that they can put like a monitor and thing on.
Starting point is 00:53:08 So I'm very confused. What's in there? Literally have no idea what's going on here. But it's as weird as it is, I also love it for something. Like I would love it. I would actually love to have this next to my bed so I can like just wake up and get to gamer mode, like right when I wake up or even like right before I go to sleep.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Yeah, Rika makes a good point. Like, did AI make this picture? I don't think it is because I see the Discord symbol right here. They won't be able to use Discord stuff. I think this is, yeah, this is a legit setup, y'all. I mean, the wires
Starting point is 00:53:47 could literally be in this little metal pipe thing right here. Oh, by the way, you can't really see it, but this is a, you can see the monitor thing right here. So it probably could, it probably feeds down into it. I'm going to rate this. Brough.
Starting point is 00:54:05 Honestly? Are we judging this task bar being on the full left side? Actually, yeah, honestly, that that's a good spot. Like, having other...
Starting point is 00:54:22 I don't even think we can rate this thing, to be honest. I don't know what to think of it. Laura had a really funny comment. Looks like a sleeper build, though. Oh, all right, Michael, can you save this image and that caption so you can post it on social? Oh, 100%. Yeah, 100%. Well, I'll set this over real quick, but...
Starting point is 00:54:44 Sleeper build. Sleeper build. Man, dude, I don't know what to think. Like, what would you... It's given an 11 out of 10 because it's so unique. It's so unique. It's so unique that you can have to love it for... as weird as it is.
Starting point is 00:55:03 And I guess if you're listening to this podcast, instead of watching live on Twitch, you definitely have to go back and watch the Vod just for tableflicts set up. It's worth it, believe me. Yeah, this is hilarious. Honestly, I love it. I absolutely love this so much.
Starting point is 00:55:26 I'm going to try that out now. Yeah, it looks great. So, tail flip, well done, well done. From Brandon Potter. Yes, we are pulling these from Discord. Yeah, for the people asking where we're getting this from, we asked our Discord community to submit them all week. And if you're not in the Discord server,
Starting point is 00:55:48 you can join at Discord.g.g slash NZXT. We do these setups, these setup ratings every so often, maybe like, you know, once a month at this point. And people love them. So if you're not in the server, please join and submit your setup the next time we do this. I just want you to just Before you say anything
Starting point is 00:56:07 Just take a quick look At Do you notice anything specific The NZT sword Or the toilet paper The toilet paper Yeah I think every time I see toilet paper
Starting point is 00:56:24 There's two rolls of toilet paper At that Do you notice that? Oh God there's two There's one in the left Oh wait I think we did this one Didn't we do this one before
Starting point is 00:56:34 I have possibly I think we've done this one before but I think we've got to revisit it Yeah All right so first and foremost I love L-shaped desk You know because it gives you more space And they have the PC on the right on the L
Starting point is 00:56:51 right there where it belongs They have the dual monitors They have the cool keyboard They have the cool mouse pad Everything is really nice Except for the fact that there's a bunch of random stuff on the desk and it's not just a toilet paper there's like other stuff I don't even know what half these things are doing on here to be honest
Starting point is 00:57:16 like if you zoom in like let's see what what is all this stuff like like right there to the right hand side of the where the toilet paper is like what's the glowing thing there I think it's just like a one of those like displays yeah it's like what's the what's that even doing there. And you got like a, I don't know, it's just like a lot of zinc gets on there that
Starting point is 00:57:39 I don't know what they're doing. Yeah, Rika, Rika has it right. Compared to the other set of you see, which is pure minimalistic, this is very, like, more maximalistic. You know,
Starting point is 00:57:48 it's very, there's a lot going on. But it's also, I feel like that is also an aesthetic, which is like, look, I have so much stuff on my desk, but it works and it's still really nice.
Starting point is 00:58:00 You know? Yeah, it's not bad. I don't want to say it's bad. It's just, just too much trinkets in the desk and one too many toilet paper rolls for my taste yeah I think the toilet paper roll gives me it's either it gains a point or loses
Starting point is 00:58:17 the point you know what to be funny is if they actually put like a toilet paper roll holder on the desk and they just like drilled it in that if you did that who sent this one Brandon Potter, if you put a toilet paper roll thing onto the side, you get an 11 out of 10. You win.
Starting point is 00:58:42 You just win. Put the roll on the actual PC. Right there on the front, you just pulled the toilet paper from there. Hold on. Yeah. Is there a magnetic toilet? There has to be. Oh.
Starting point is 00:58:58 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. This, this right here on the side of your PC. Right here, this one. Put that? It's only five bucks. Right here.
Starting point is 00:59:20 Perfect. It's perfect. Imagine it through that. That would actually make this perfect. Honestly, I think if you did that, it'd be so good. Yeah. So my rating for this is going to be very unique. because even though I don't like all the crinkets and the toilet paper
Starting point is 00:59:42 and all the stuff that's on the desk, I feel like this is a very realistic interpretation of what most people's setups look like, to be honest, because most people don't have their desk completely clean all the time. And I'm sure if they really wanted to, they just wanted to take a really good picture of this. Like if they got rid of all those trinkets and took a picture, I'm sure we'd give us a 10 out of 10.
Starting point is 01:00:11 And because of that, you know, I'm going to say, I'm only going to deduct one point for the toilet paper. So I'm going to give it a 9 out of 10. I'll give it. I'll give us an 8.5. I'm not a maximalist person, but it does look cool. The toilet paper, I would give you a 10 out of 10 if you install that toilet paper holder into your PC.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Yeah, minus one point until you get the whole. holder. Exactly. Exactly. All right. We'll get through, we only have enough time to go through about a two or three more. And then if you didn't get to yours, please resubmit it. We'll be doing this a lot because this is actually really fun to look at all this stuff. Since Coco nutters in the chat, I brought your PC out. So let's go ahead and take a look at Coco nutters.
Starting point is 01:01:01 See? Oh, nice, Coco nutters. Oh, this is cute. Oh, this is real cute. Okay, so... Top of the morning. Let's see, cocoa nutters. Here's what I think here.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I think the first thing that stands out to me is the cable management, because you have messy cables, like all underneath the monitors there. You know, it's... It stands out. It's because it's right in the middle of your desk. You know, it's like really, really sloppy. I think if you just cleaned up those cables, you know, just get some zip ties and didn't have them all tangled like that, this setup would actually be like almost perfect. And I say almost perfect because there's other things that I think could be possibly improved.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Like, I'm not going to, it dug points for it, but it does kind of mess with my OCD a little bit. bit when you have three different size monitors. I think if you had the two horizontal monitors, the same size, it would not only look a lot better, but make it easier to use because I feel like, and I've done this myself where I've had different size monitors and just kind of messes with my vision for some reason. So that's what I would change.
Starting point is 01:02:30 And then also, I think the speakers are probably too big for the desk space you have. They're nice speakers, don't get me wrong, but I mean, one of them is behind a monitor, half of it's behind a monitor, and then the other one is like hanging off the desk almost. So I think having smaller speakers would be better or mounting them somewhere else where they're not like that. The boom arm and the mic are really nice.
Starting point is 01:03:02 The headset's also really nice. I like how you hang your headset there and it's kind of a, out of the way. The only complaint about that, though, is that the boom arm seems to be going over the right monitor. Like it's not out of the way. So I would probably put the boom arm on the left. So it's going over the vertical monitor,
Starting point is 01:03:25 as opposed to one of my primary monitors. But that's just personal preference, I think. And I see the PC is not on your desk, but it looks like it's on a stand. So bonus points for not putting it on the floor. I am going to give this I'm going to say it has a potential
Starting point is 01:03:44 I think to be 8.5 if it's cleaned up a bit so I'm going to give it a 7 I'm going to give it a 7.5 7.5 out of 10 I'm going to give this I think as someone that has
Starting point is 01:04:04 had this exact type of set up before I'm going to give this a good sub.5, maybe even an 8. I think as, I think everyone during a PC journey has had this type of setup. I think it's great. I think it's good. Yes, definitely lots of zip ties. Just zip tie it and immediately or like those cable sleeve things, you know, those like things that go wrap around.
Starting point is 01:04:29 It will make it so much better. But what is this? I don't know if you explain. What is this plushy? What is this plushy? It's very cute. It's very adorable how it's like sitting on top of your mic. I love that.
Starting point is 01:04:43 Yeah, what is the little, it was a gift from a friend. Aw. Almond. Oh, that's cute. But, yeah, it's, I mean, it's a good setup, but there are things you can improve on. If you got this situated. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:02 I think it'd be easy 8.5. It's mostly, it's mostly the cables. They're just, it's a rat's nest going on there Yeah, underneath your monitors That's really it. Hold on. Look under the cat. Like the stuffed animal cat is what you're talking?

Starting point is 01:06:59 I needed to replace my decade old laptop I mostly used to watch YouTube in bed inside the case is a 2600X and a 4060 you know 4060 TI in this that's amazing yeah what oh RX460
Starting point is 01:07:16 okay okay I was like what yeah this setup is an 11 out of 10 Like, I stand by my rating. It's just so out there that I cannot deny the ingenuity here. Someone should send this, send table flip an application to apply at NASA. I think he would get hired. Yeah, wait, wait, Staless.
Starting point is 01:07:45 I have a question. So, so you, how old is this, how old is this, like, have you had this old? like have you had this a lot or did you like buy it and then wanted to like install stuff into it Mike they just posted a picture of it in the setups channel I won't be able to check it can you send it to me on slack yeah I'll slack it yeah because I can't change our discord there's there's a giant cardboard box inside of there for some reason I'm even more confused now now that I see the inside of this PC I'm even more confused what's going on here I I I I I freaked out a little bit when he said, oh yeah, this has a 4060 T.I.
Starting point is 01:08:28 I went, huh? This case is from 2001. My grandfather gave it to me ages ago. Carboard is an aeroduck because it only has a single 80 millimeter exhaust fan. Oh, my God. Hold on. Okay, I'm downloading it right now. Hold on.
Starting point is 01:08:48 I got to show you guys the inside of this case. What? There's no way. I'm downloading it right now. of course my my thing's being a little okay here we go here we go wow wow so this so this is an air duct for the 80 because it has oh wow
Starting point is 01:09:19 it's the do you do anything other than YouTube on this or is this like oh my god I even notice the PSU was on top it's not even on the bottom of shroud it's on the top I didn't even realize that I love this case. It's awesome. That's cool that you kept it your grandpa gave it to you. Wow. You just keep this case forever. This is great.
Starting point is 01:09:49 Yeah. Oh yeah. Look at the old school cables too. Look at that. Oh, those are going to back, man. The true sleeper build. That is, this is legit. Yeah, is that, wait.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Is that USBC? Even has the plastic on it. Oh, that brings me back. Even has the plastic thing on it. Retro inside. Retro inside. Oh, this brings me back, man. That's crazy.
Starting point is 01:10:33 Yeah, that's a true sleeper build for sure. All right. We'll do the last one. We'll finish it off on Mr. C. Lemons. we got his rose Mr. C. Lemons. All right, Mr. C. Lemons. Let's finish it off on your
Starting point is 01:10:49 Ooh. Ooh. So, Goddum. I appreciate that. All right. So this is a really nice setup. What do you mean? So
Starting point is 01:11:05 I guess I love I love everything that's in this picture. I just don't necessarily think it's the right hardware for this size of desk. So what I mean by that is, okay, the mouse pad is great. It takes up the entire desk, basically. And it doesn't get in the way because it's not like, you have your monitors on stand, sorry, on mounts.
Starting point is 01:11:36 So the mouse pad's not hanging over the monitors, which is great. And it's not tucked underneath the PC, which is great. But the monitors, I think, are way too big because the center of your viewing area is the bezels of both. So it's just not ideal, in my opinion. I would much rather have two smaller monitors and have one vertical. And then my primary monitor just directly in the center. second game on it. And I also feel like the PC is very nice,
Starting point is 01:12:17 but it might be too big for this desk because it looks like it's hanging off the edge there if I'm looking at this correctly. It's a little dark, so I can't tell. I can't tell if it's on the actual desk or if it's on a separate stand, but it looks like it's just too big for some reason. I think this desk curls right here,
Starting point is 01:12:37 and it's the little corner, maybe it's a little hanging off. Yeah. Yeah. looks, it looks like this is, this, this desk curls here or, no, I think this is a desk. No, it's still on it. Yeah, this is the desk right here. Sorry, I was looking at it wrong. Yeah, this is, this is the curl right here.
Starting point is 01:12:56 This is the curl. But yeah, it's fully on the desk. Okay. I guess my only, my only real grip with the setup then is the monitors just because the center of your viewing angle is going to be those bezels, you know, and I would just say either make one of those in vertical and
Starting point is 01:13:16 keep your main primary monitor more centers. But besides that, it's awesome. I love the Sea of Eve's mouse pad. Everything's real nice. I'm going to give this a... I'm going to give
Starting point is 01:13:34 it a 9 out of 10, and it would be a 10 out of 10 if the monitors were oriented differently. I'm going to give it a good solid 8.5. Bailey, I agree to orientation. I don't know why.
Starting point is 01:13:52 I understand the aesthetic look at the monitors is great, but I can never deal with having it in the center. I always have to have a center monitor and one to the side. Or better yet, center monitor and two monitors. So the center monitor is the one you game on. I like that. In my personal opinion, I don't like to, you know, look left or right.
Starting point is 01:14:12 But the PC, the keyboard. I love to see if these mouse pad. That's an awesome mouse pad, by the way. It's huge, too, which is awesome. Yeah. Nice. Wireless mouse, Elgado. I like the chapstick, too. Got to keep your lips chapped at all times. You know, you never know. Mr. C. Lemons is in the chat, too. Yep. Yep. Yeah. I mean, God. Is this melatonin on the side here? I think I have the same one. It's like that nature's bountier or whatever, melatonin as well.
Starting point is 01:14:42 but I mean Base is great PC's good I love the Gundam ball paper 8.5 solid 8.5 There's really nice setup
