      it's damn good you should just submit it to randomfrankp , techsource , swashin man
      I like that you're set up is such a minimal one
      I wish I could have one of those

  • @LakerTriangle
    @LakerTriangle Před 6 lety +20

    Lighting is key for not straining your eyes when you edit and game for hours.

    • @James-wl4wi
      @James-wl4wi Před 6 lety

      RdyPlyOne true. I am thinking of either getting some nanoleaf of getting a led strip and running it behind my monitor and connecting it to my motherboard

    @g1zmo85 Před 6 lety +1

    You seriously have the cleanest setups, keep up the great work! I tried building in the NCase but found that my motherboard choice was limiting the cooler options too much so moved to a different case for now. Going to keep an eye out for a better board in the future and then re-use the case then as it is such a sleek little enclosure.

  • @annasoH323
    @annasoH323 Před 6 lety +1

    So, what I would change is to take your setup and put it in my house.
    Joking aside, I was wondering if you had a speaker setup as well or if it's all headphone audio for you? I generally stick to my AKG/Massdrop K7XX's but I do have a Klipsch speaker setup for either ambient music or for when people aren't home and I can crank it :) (K7XX's aren't basshead phones). Also, ever since I saw your mITX cooler comparison video, I've been strongly considering if I should up/sidegrade my RVZ02 to one that can support a larger cooler and more fans without being bigger than my setup can support (though, the good thing about the RVZ02 is that I don't need a separate headphone stand).

  • @pkerry12
    @pkerry12 Před 6 lety

    I have a LG 5k ultrafine thunderbolt 3 display and a 4k samsung display I don't think I could even do 4 video editing on any other monitors because of the colour perfection and being able to run a full 4k preview and have all my video editing tools open on one display on the 5k monitor. I like the look for the curved displayed but none of them come in 5k or higher.

    Hello... Can somebody help me, pls? My rig: rx 570/i5 7400/8gb ddr4/ 1tb hdd/ corsair vs450 (450w)
    So my problem is that i have worse fps in all games that i play than other similar pcs... For example in far cry 4 i can only play at 1080p/high and only between 40-50 fps with stutter..... And others with weaker pc get better performance, and i dont know why is that.... I saw in msi afterburner that my rx 570 on full load in all games that i play is working just on 16%, all of the time.... I dont know if this is a bottleneck, or anything else, so thats why i am here so somebody can help me...

      @MaZEEZaM Před 6 lety

      I wish I could get it, sadly the bloody NBN Co designated my place as Fixed wireless despite us being on the side of a hill surrounded by trees and getting next to no mobile phone reception. I did have them come out to test and hopefully install the nbn but the people said it no where near met the minimum required signal strength. This is made all the more annoying as literally on my street but on the other side of the hill they have Fibre to the Node installed but we are classified as a different post code so yeah, im stuck with 250kb/s actual download speed with the exception of if I reset the modem which occurs around twice per day to get around 380-420kb/s actual download speed which happens to be half of what we got a year ago before the bloody nbn was installed on our street. Friggen Telstra wont fix the line and this is what we are stuck with. SHITTING LIBERALS, should have been fibre to the home.
