My Dream Setups!

2017-07-07
hey how's it going Dave TD here so this is a video on three completely different setups they have nice aesthetics they're great performers but they're super expensive okay first is the razor blade pro version two it's similar to the razor blade pro I reviewed a few months ago it's still running the GTX 1080 still has the mechanical RGB keyboard and the trackpad on the right with a programmable scroll wheel but it has faster RAM and overclockable CPU and THX certification so these speakers are amazing there is clear as the new MacBook speakers but it has stronger bass and they can get super loud the 17 inch display is also THX certified it's excellent for content creation and gaming its color calibrated at the factory it's got 4k resolution it's bright and it's running g-sync at 60 Hertz it's not the quietest laptop and it's not the most powerful and with the new overclock little CPU when you crank it up the temperatures get pretty hot but for gaming and video editing this is one of the best laptops on the market for $4,000 though I would never call this a value oriented purchase it's a very steep price tag but it's awesome okay next up is a desktop PC this is a bare-bones pre-built PC from ZOTAC it's 5.8 5 liters in volume it's really small it's running a core i7 7700 a GTX 1080 but all the other stuff you got to supply yourself it cost $1,800 and I know you can build a custom PC for like $7 that would crush this thing in terms of performance for the money but it wouldn't be this small and it wouldn't be this quiet and those two things are pretty important to me inside it's running a samsung PM 961 a 500 gig SSD and 32 gigs of ram from corsair the bias gives you a good amount of fan control you can keep the system running incredibly quiet if you want and it will ramp up the fans if you're doing heavier stuff gaming and video editing performance is surprisingly good considering how compact the system is the display is the 8k panel from Dell the up-3 2-1 8k it has excellent color gamut and accuracy and it's crazy expensive it retails for $5,000 the resolution not obviously aimed at the professional content creator who's working with really high-res video or photo files and I got to be honest I'm not part of that demographic but the screen is awesome the camera I used as a red scarlet W it shoots in 5k and before this display I'd never seen the full 5pa image before for my camera at least not on one screen I'd had to like zoom in and scope around to kind of seize all the pixels but now I can see all 5k regardless it's a really nice screen to edit videos with it is in fact the sharpest display of ever used it does need a pretty beefy graphics card to run it and you're using two DisplayPort cables to make it happen 8k gaming is actually not too bad on the zotac it's pointless though I mean I would never play games of this resolution but it is viable for some games if you're curious I'm running some speakers from Kanto it sound really good these aren't particularly expensive speakers but I like them because of their aesthetic matte gray clean design and they also connect over Bluetooth so you have less wires the keyboard is also Wireless with cyan gmk key caps and I also have a white Razer DeathAdder there's one issue that I have with that setup and it's a problem that most people wouldn't have but because I'm old and I have a kid and I have a pretty intensive job outside of youtube I don't like having that gaming pc around so I have terrible self control when it comes to PC games and I found over the years that the best way for me to kind of curve that addiction is to just not have a gaming PC so this is the setup I like the most the trash can Mac Pro it's three and a half years old it's still stupidly overpriced but fortunately I can't put it over watch in Mac OS it is the quietest desktop I've ever used and it's also one of the fastest that I've used for Adobe Premiere it's running a 10 core CPU with 64 gigs of RAM and that's why I still use it there's nothing on the market right now that has a five and a half liter case that crushes video edits like this and is also virtually silent now as for why I like cases that are so small and so quiet like I don't know I'm weird I know most of you won't appreciate that kind of stuff most of you don't care about things like that but it is important to me the display is the 38 you see 99 from LG this thing goes for $1500 this is one of the more reasonably priced items in the video but it's also my favorite display for edits I actually prefer this thing over panel and for the stuff that I do I think the display is perfect it's bright excellent color gamut and color accuracy there's enough of a curve to give you a bit of immersion when you're watching videos but it's not too distracting and it has these PC input and the speakers in here aren't bad actually don't use speakers when I have it connected up to the Mac just to keep things as clean as possible but that's it I hope you guys enjoyed this video I mean there was no sponsor to this thing there was no even purpose to this video it's just to showcase three really cool setups that I've been able to use and I thought were really impressive in case some of you have really big budgets and you want to go ham on buying a computer well now you have three more options
