do you watch anime
and what you do for living
Hey, Brittany. Lost contact since March. 4th. It would be appreciated if you could check your inbox. Looking forward to your ride on Kugoo Kirin Q06 Pro :)
Why buy a $300 HDMI pass through box when you can get synchronized RGB using SignalRGB??? :D Also we have a huge library of supported games, way more than 4....
not worth it.
I was waiting for your review of this, had a feeling it was coming and here it is! Good to have you back Josh 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Ay appreciate you dude
Great video as always!! Looks awesome!! Thanks for putting the video together!
Thanks Chris! (I always show naynay your videos!) ❤️
Hey Chris 😁
@@TechTesseract That's amazing! You two are one of my favorite channels to watch. Love everything you do!
This is what I love to see simple succinct straight to the point review. In your recommendation what is the best sync box for tv mount plugged with ps5 ?
Hi, i see we are using the same monitor. Do you get all monitor capabilities with the workaround with the cables? 175hz hdr 3440x1440 g sync?
Is the AI sync box limited to a max number of 5 other lights connected (not including the USB C)? I have 10 other Govee lights. Currently Govee Dreamview only allows control of 5 other lights. Ran into same limit with hue sync box. Right now using a combination of PC Software, Razer Synapse, Govee Dreamview, and a Hue Sync box. To control all the lights throughout room. Understand it wouldn't control Hue Lights. But will it control more than 5 other Govee lights?
Josh pushing out the vids almost daily big up
ayyy 🤘
Have you noticed better color matching with the AI turned on?
in General people tha are going to drop $300 on rgb light are likely not going to be running slow or low rez monitors. needed to be 1440p at 250hz and 144hz at 4k to sell to its intended market.
Can you still use a capture card on console for pc streaming with this sync box being hooked up to your console
This is a hard pass for me. Without HDMI 2.1 or display port, I don't get VRR. It might have been fine fine for TV if we are talking last gen but with both ps5 and xbox series supporting VRR this just is a pass.
There's a pretty nice bypass actually. You just need two ports from your PC or Xbox(can't do this on playstations cause they only have 1 port).
One goes to the syncbox and the other goes directly to the screen you're using. This bypasses the syncboxes limitations to framerate at higher resolutions,
lack of VRR, or anything else cause the input to the screen isnt coming from the box. It's coming directly from your device. The output to the syncbox
doesn't actually need to be connected to your screen to function. It only needs to be connected to the light bars and the lightstrip.
This doesn't change the fact that it's expensive. It would just fix most of the issues you would have with it regarding support.
Can you sync the box with other Govee RGBIC ledstrips via BT/Wifi?
I need this! but my monitor rear faces an open room. so wouldnt reflect the light. :(
Hello, I have a problem with the package and hope you can help me. I set everything up as shown, the lighting stays white. Even if I turn on the aimode, the lighting doesn't adapt to the game like lol. Does the bix have to be connected to the WiFi for this to work or what am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance for the help.
What is the length of each section of the led strip?
doesnt Razer Synapse already do the AI thing if you have razer connect with Govee? 300 $ for what exactly - I am getting most of the things through synapse anyways atleast for apex - I mean when other games support does come out it might be worth - Thanks for the review! Cheers mate
I mean Govee is doing an amazing job but at the cost... I'll pass. For now..... 😈
At least it’s cheaper than the Phillips version.
It’s $100 through Amazon prime rn
Just was looking at reviews. The price is %63 off it's only $74.99 but it's a flash sale only for Amazon Prime
@@ericp7413 My man... 9 months later and this community always has everyone's back. ✊
eBay and Amazon have good deals. I just bought some stuff yesterday. I’m excited for it to come in
Ideally if these use computer vision / audio recognition ("ai", aka some kind of glorified pattern recognition software), you *should* be able to train the algo to do whatever you want (ui change, jingle play etc) to launch some kind of colour pattern.
No idea how tweakable that thing is though, or of the memory available to store other models, so for $300 it might be a bit steep for now.
I love Govee and i Have loads of their strips from 15 pound sets to M1 and Neon Rope but im not sure the colors look accurate enough just Yet it seems to be adding light that isn't displayed and also i think they need more Games especially campaign solo games People will want the emersion in Game not competitive in my opinion its a distraction while competing I will have to get my hands on one to test it out fully but It seems from what iv seen so far that it needs a couple of small updates hopefuly that can be just updated like the strips can but i like it in overall
Love the idea but the graphics limit is just to much for me to buy.
Is there anyway to still use a capture card with this
I wonder if Govee will make a version geared for the TV
Yes lol waiting for the TV one
Is there a problem if my monitor is like 25 inches
So can anybody help me please? My friend purchased this for me as they new I was building a desk set up for work / streaming / gaming. I have a 4k monitor and use if for digital art connected to my macbook. I sometimes stream PS5 and Nintendo switch and i'm wondering if this is any good for my setup as it says it only runs at 60hz for 4k... Does that mean the lights are dimmer or something I'm confused!
no display port support?
Looks like you have a hook up with Govee please ask why they still don’t sell their products in Australia
Honestly pretty annoyed that the site doesn't specify that the AI Gaming Sync kit doesn't have the 2nd USB-C for the light bars, should you, like me, think you were going to buy the lightbars later on. If you think the box is the same, it's not; you also can't use it for large TV's either because it won't support the additional LED's, even though that seems like nothing more than a firmware tweak.
Hey, do you have a link to that desk neon light strip?
April 10th! I saw it below - will be out on Amazon
I'm more interested on that LED neon rope lights. Is it out yet? I dont see it on their site. :(
10th April! I'll put the links soon as they are live!
@@TechTesseract Thank you
when will the desk strip lights be available i don't dee them on amazon or govee site
14th april! I'll add the links when they're live!
@@TechTesseract 10th April, no?
Got it on Amazon for $99, probably worth it now as affordable customization.
Biggest thing I don’t care for Govee dreamlight is on black scene it turns blue and Philips just turns it off. No light is the perfect black
Do these sync boxes work with HDMI splitters? so you dont have bottle neck yourself with the box.
Ever find out?
6:26 I'm a long time govee user. I can tell you from expirence, they don't update devices. Ever. So if they claim they will had support for more games, it will have a cap, and they will want you to purchase the new version they make for more games.
They have to!! I want my Fornite lighting effectssss
WHICH CAMERA YOU GUYS USE IT
3 x Panasonic Lumix S5!
@@TechTesseract thankyou it's 00:44 am right now in India
But it's double than my budget 😕 but thanks it means a lot
❤️❤️❤️ I started youtube with my phone for the first 2 years!
I am using Display Port to connect my PC with my Monitor.......can I use this Connection further on and use the HDMI seperate to the Box or do I need to sleeve the Signal through the Box? I really like the Effects, but I dont wanna change my Display Port Connection to HDMI
This is my same question! can the box handle it is the question.
Not sure if this is the question your asking... but I tested it with using displayport straight to my monitor, then using the HDMI port on my GPU to go to the box, then select "duplicate" on the windows display settings - basically lets you run the HDMI box as a slave connection and still get the RGB effects
@@TechTesseract thx for reply, I think its exactly what I wanted to ask......I wanna use my Display Port direct to my Monitor and a second Connection seperate to the Box. Thanks so much
@@TechTesseract I see so your saying use the settings of the second or third HDMI slot from the GPU as a slave to the AI GOVEE BOX. duplicate the signal out from the GPU. So, all the lighting effects come through. never thought about it that way.
Yup, only realised after posting the video haha
What type of monitor do you use????
Alienware Ultrawide 34 inch OLED
@@TechTesseract thank you!
I have a few Govee products, but I bought everything used. Their products are just too expensive to justify it for me. $300 goes a long way in upgrading your pc
True!
It's AI. Let's jack up the pricing.
Just called it Philips Ambilight.
No Display port... I can't even use it then.
I’ve been waiting for something like this from them for so long but hdmi is such a deal breaker 🙄
Connet the Govee as a secondary monitor, duplicate the display to run your your pc to its full potential!
Is this the 2.1 run around?
@@CadillacCoopdaville23 I’m not sure what you are asking
The no 4k 120hz is a miss for me.
Agree I wanted that too, a workaround though is if you have a graphics card that has multiple outputs, you can mirror the screens and then send 1 hdmi signal to your monitor and a separate to the sync box.
Hopefully they'll make the TV version 2.1
@@thecyberhobbit I want to know if using that method i will get 175hz,HDR and g sync on 3440x1440. Do you have any idea?
@@andreistreche9547ever find out?
@@thecyberhobbitany videos on this? I can’t find any
Looks cool, but I wouldnt pay $300 for it under any circumstances.
AS soon as I saw price tag... it was a huge NOPE... found other HDMI cheaper
It's nice and all but 300$!? For lights? No thanks I'm poor 😅
Hey, can you help me please? I cant activate Hdr on my alienware 3423dw when this Thing is plugged in. And it only work when i duplicate the monitor output. When its not duplicated in windows settings. The rgb is Staying one colour or complete off
This isn’t tech support bro. Get outta here
Is it staying static white? I had to unplug mine from the wall and replug it in and it fixed itself
@@TechTesseract yes static white but its not working. I replugged everything. On how much hz you set the monitor?
@ytytyt2265 100hz bro, that's max refresh rate for HDMI 2.0 on 3440 x 1440
@@TechTesseract yes i have it on 100 hz as well. Idk its not working
Wow looks amazing!
It's pretty cool!
@@TechTesseract not as cool as u uwu hahaha have a wonderful weekend brother
Ayy appreciate you always commenting bro! Haven a good one ❤️❤️❤️
big fan big fan
lytmi ambilight prismatek wled etc
n fact, I wish and dream of my life to own a computer😢😢
no spot for speaker...
lol
First
The AI mode sucks... The screen is all red and there is a crazy blue flashing all around it... If it is based on game actions, then probably better to go with Logitech or Razer (e.g. police lights when you are wanted in GTA, or red pulsing when you are dying in Battlefield) ...
I think if I wanted anything like this, I would go with a camera based solution. There is enough trouble to make your PS5->Amplifier->TV ... PC-amplifier->TV issues to get the desired refresh rate and resolution ... throwing an extra box into the equation is just a pain in the butt ... not mentioning DisplayPort :O
I guess the good part is that you can change the lighting effect per in game action to whatever you want, and yeah camera system definitely has it's benefits too!
