hey guys Austin you might be familiar with this my personal gaming PC which is seeing quite the update over the last couple videos we started out by trying to build something that was very high-end we had a core i7 and important that we have 14 terabytes of hard drive space update memory all kinds of fun stuff over in the last update we update even farther with the brand-new coral 1990 900k and Archie X 20 atti but it's still a PC that's sitting all by itself which means it's time for a brand new set so Ken what do you got place so we got this brand new LG monitor I don't even think this is out yet right no this is the new ultra gear so we did take a look at this briefly at Aoife and LG was awesome enough to sponsor this video by not only hooking this up with a minor but trying to get this set up finally well not by itself what's cool about this monitor is is that it is a full Ultra Y as you would expect 34 40 by 1440 but importantly this Ken rips the box in half it also runs at a full 120 Hertz and that's with G sync all right this for that boy well it's actually not that huge this is a 34 inch monitor but behind it manageable with one person can you grab the stand yes probability sout this is actually easy enough to set up I mean usually these LG monitors just kind of slot in I mean most monitors are like that too you know I'll be real I mean obviously LG is sponsoring this video but I have personally been using LG monitors for a long time right I mean my monitor work as LG my monitor at home is LG this seems really sketchy to do this with one hand but I'm gonna do it anyway yeah there we go cool all right that was fall off the table I'll say first this looks really cool from the back oh so it doesn't even have the RGB on look at this like just the vents alone with like the red accents it's cool the next step is to actually get this set up well where it should be so right now we're just putting it in the corner here to just make sure that all the accessories and the cables and stuff work at some point this is going to make it to my house if we ever stopped needing this PC and every single video we do so let's figure out how to move everything I'm actually really excited to try this monitor so we briefly got to take a look at it it Aoife and it looked really nice but I didn't actually get to playing games on it for such a high resolution ultra wide and it's 120 Hertz with g-sync I'm ready do who bath you look cool and the red lights up - yeah everything lights up so we should almost for the final version of this setup leave this in an open area so we can catch own the back Oh actually to be fair the lighting might work if you do it against the wall so it might look sort of like an under glow so something that I got is this Corsair mousepad that has a Qi charging zone so you can charge your phone in addition to using it as a mousepad I really like the idea be able to charge your phone on your mousepad I mean you already have to have a mousepad anyway and I'm charging my phone at the time I sit down at my desk it's a little less thing to have and you have more space for a mousepad in general if you don't use the Qi charging right so we have a lot of USB ports we need for this one in fact actually we're kind of out of ports on the back well it's okay because the monitor also has two alright 34 40 by 1440 120 Hertz oh look at that look at that the mouse is really simple if the BenQ Zowie FK one it's the same one that I've been using for or what like at least a year now so we've got that plugged in we also do have our charting station which if I drop my phone on hey it works so the idea is you can be gaming and obviously if you want to clear off the entire pad you can sort of get that full range of motion but if you want drop your phone on while you're I don't know on reddit or something what do you do on your gaming PC that's not gaming the keyboard was a really easy decision here we have the Razer Huntsman elite now we've done a whole video about this we featured it in a couple of videos cents this is hands-down my favorite keyboard that you can buy it all right now now that do we have one at the office I know Jimmy uses one I have one at home this is straight up as good as it gets as far as keyboards go you get the full RGB the chroma but importantly you have those awesome opto optoelectronic an optical optimum optomechanical switch keyboard I knew it I always thought it was kind of close alright this setup is looking a whole lot better right now so just to recap first of all we do have my gaming PC it's got that core I $9.99 hundred K as well as the RT X xx atti and this is a lot of power because it is powering a very nice monitor a monitor that's been overclocked to 120 Hertz now this monitor is definitely not cheap what I appreciate is this pretty much the best of both worlds so as far as the gaming side you do have that high res it is a not only ultra wide display but it also is curved but importantly it runs a full 120 Hertz now I've seen a couple monitors that are ultra wide but they're much lower resolution but you're getting a full 1440p panel what's also nice about that is that you're not losing that vertical screen real estate for things like video editing which is the secondary use of this monitor as it actually has a full nano IPS display which means that you can do some proper creative work on Eire you can watch some ultra wide video you can do gaming it really can do everything that sounds like a huge marketing tagline but this legitimately is one of the most impressive monitors I've ever tried because usually when it comes to gaming monitors you have to make some kind of sacrifice but the ultra care really doesn't make you make that sacrifice we've got a serious serious audio setup going here so first of all running from the PC into the audio engine d1 this is serving as our DAC and then it goes into the audio engine and 22 which is powering our bookshelf speakers when you crank it but essentially the best audio system I think we got our had for a video listen to that I'm using it here okay so we've had some really nice fortnight's that up slightly especially with the ultimate Thunderbolt but this look at this I'm playing at full 1440p on a curve ultra wide at almost exactly 120 frames per second that is obscenely smooth that's just not even funny I mean obviously the video is not shot in hundred twenty Hertz so you can't really see it but I mean the smoothness is ridiculous I'm really happy that this setup is finally coming together we spend a lot of time working on this PC and trying to get things as close as possible but it always feels like we're missing something but now we've got the great display we've got the great audio we've got the great peripherals it really does feel like the entire setup anyway hopefully you guys enjoy this wonderful video all about the new setup and specifically huge shout out to LG for sponsoring this video with their dope ultra clear monitor as always links to all this stuff will be in the description and if you'll excuse me I'm going to go probably lose again because that's what I do best right ken yes
