hey how's it going guys this is Dave - Dee and welcome to episode 5 of my laptop setup a series where I feature the gear that you guys submit as well as showcase whatever it is that you do with your laptop so this episode is featuring gamers now I do a lot of gaming laptop coverage on this channel so it's no surprise that there's going to be some gamer episodes this is the first of hopefully many first we have a submission from Chris his setup includes an alien r17 and some corsair gear so the corsair mouse mate mm 200 mouse pad and a corsair saber gaming mouse that has full RGB lighting and it's around $50 so it's actually a pretty solid mouse for the price the headphone he uses are the Sennheiser urbanite XL and the phone he uses is a Xiaomi me v or mi5 not sure how to pronounce it but I thought that was a Samsung s6 at first because that curved back so he goes to school for computer engineering and it looks like he's a Linux user and he works with C in Visual Studio and of course he's a gamer so the clip he submitted is from Tom Clancy's the division so this was a game that was really hyped at launch I almost did an oMG setup for it it's an online open-world third-person shooter and it's a lot of fun especially their friends to play with nowadays the servers are a little less busy so it's not quite the same feeling as the original game but yeah it's a pretty solid game and it looks like Chris is pretty good at it the next set up is from Edward he's also a student his pack is the ever lane modern snap backpack his laptop is the gold XPS 13 and if you've seen my review of it it's the most powerful XPS 13 with the HD 540 graphics card instead of a mouse he uses a ps4 controller for most of his gaming the headphones he uses are the v-moda m100 s for his phone he's rocking a 1+1 so this is the og 1 plus and he also uses this pencil the pen Telegraph Gear 1000 now I normally wouldn't showcase the pencil in this series but it's actually the same pencil that I use and it's actually my favorite mechanical pencil I picked it up in Japan it's an awesome pencil like 10 out of 10 would recommend if you're looking for a mechanical pencil this has absolutely nothing to do with tech but this is a really good one he's submitted a clip from Bioshock and that's a first-person shooter with what I consider to be the best story I've ever seen in a first-person shooter game and there's also some kind of RPG I'm actually not sure what game this is but it's neat that he plays these games with a controller and not a mouse the last set up is from Sean so he's using a camo version of the ARS x5 s I've never done a full review of that laptop but I think it's one of the most technically impressive laptops on the market there's room for 64 gigs of ram there are four separate drive bays it can fit a gtx 980m and it's relatively thin and light it's a beast the v6 is coming out soon with the gtx 1070 and i'll likely do a review of that one he's got a pack from solo and he uses a Swiss skier sleeve to protect the laptop he also has a Logitech G 240 mouse pad and a G 900 wireless mouse so this mouse is arguably the best performing wireless gaming mouse on the market right now for audio he uses a pair of Mophie headphones from blue those are more of an audiophile set of headphones he also uses a pair of wireless JBL earbuds and when he wants to amp it up he uses the TV ka 33 which is a wireless Bluetooth speaker that's weatherproof so Sean submitted a clip of himself playing planetside 2 that's a free to play MMO shooter lots of fun I used to play that thing obsessively but the frame rates of this recording are a bit choppy for his laptop I'm not sure why possibly because it was filmed with fraps that thing is kind of resource hungry just a piece of advice for anyone else who wants to submit gameplay footage use shadowplay if you can't it's only for NVIDIA cards but it's free it's very light on resources and the image quality is really good I definitely prefer shadow play over fraps right now but that's the end of this episode hope you guys enjoyed it if you want to submit your own content check the video description below there's full instructions there if you're a gamer and you feel like you kind of missed the boat for this episode don't worry there's a lot of gamers out there there's going to be future gaming episodes I will do my best to include all of you that I can thumbs if you like this video subs if you loved it it's been nice I'll see you guys next time
