everyone so this is it this is the new office in part one of our moving vlog series we showed you what we were working with and it was pretty it was pretty bad we don't have a whole lot of space there so we're moving into this space I don't want anyone to worry and think that like because we have a rent obligation now that the content quality will go down or anything like that this is very within our budget and the big thing here is that I have been completely unable to build out more test benches the reason the fan tests are delayed power supply tests are delayed all of that is because we're out of space there's no more space where we are now so this will enable us in a lot of ways to expand our technical content you may have seen Patrick's workstation in part one of this it's not even a permanent workstation so he brings his laptop in and sets it up there's a test bench there sometimes you can even work there so we're gonna solve all those problems with this space and the plan here today it's just while it's empty show you what it looks like now so we can transition to what it will look like once the moving series is all over before that this video is brought to you by Corsairs HS 70 wireless gaming headset which focuses on comfort with memory foam adjustable ear cups and a padded headband the headset has a 40 foot low latency range over wireless lasts for up to 16 hours of gaming use and as extra focus on build quality to ensure it lasts a long time learn more at the link in the description below alright so first thing to do is show you where you're gonna actually see me standing most of the time which will be the video set so what I need you to do is work with me here use your imagination basically we're thinking a roll set right behind me here and here's the big thing permanent live streaming set up next to it so this is cool in a lot of ways one livestreams have been really popular everyone seems to have loved them thank you very much for watching them we enjoy doing them a lot too and right now it takes about two hours of setup and teardown just to get the live stream going because we have to move multiple monitors on top of the table the wobbly table which will probably be replaced and then we have to move multiple systems in streaming system testbench system and that's problem so what we're going to do is have basically like a divider somewhere he probably not a physical divider but there'll be a space here and there'll be the normal a roll set with the blue tool tool wall and some kind of table in front of me for where I'm working and then over here we're gonna do what I'm thinking is workbench against the wall probably thirty inch deep workbench here and then another work table in front of me and maybe like a rolling cart and the rolling cart will be so that I can grab the test batch from one of the other rooms and wheel it over and we can do our live streaming setup that way so be really easy to transport stuff but yeah table here basically bench there and maybe a shelf somewhere and then if I need tools I just walk over to a roll set and grab them and whoever's Manning the camera can pan over and catch that instead of what we normally do where I literally have to duck under he the lights I have to duck under cables for the lights sometimes will crawl under the table if there's not stuff under it going into different rooms or downstairs in the house to grab tools and stuff like that's problem - you can't do that during live streams so this will solve all of that and basically we'll be able to do live streams more frequently without eating into the normal content because right now to do a live stream take so much setup and teardown time that's just not feasible to do it all the time so this will actually be a net positive and our time available even though we'll be doing more live streams that's really cool so yeah permanent live stream a will set in front of me here I'll just be lights tripod stuff like that but like I said right now we can't navigate the lights without like like docking and weaving around them so there'll be enough space here to actually do that without tripping and knocking things over and also we can upgrade eventually not immediately but eventually upgrade our lighting setup if we want it to like add an extra light somewhere or something like that to make the shops look better so we have a lot of options there so that's the main studio area is kind of this just between me and the camera right now is where the studio is gonna be and I'll talk a little bit about some of the other stuff so over here we have the obviously kitchen slash break room whatever some tables that we brought in but I ignore those for now so basics here the part that's relevant to you all is probably about where I'm standing but not positive yet we might do some kind of interview table thinking like bar height bar stool height tables so the goal isn't necessarily to make it look like a literal bar it's just that that setup will be really nice for camera so we're thinking aside from obviously being able to use the table to eat and take a break is when we bring out guests like I've spoken to you build Zoid about potentially getting him out here for some Alan to overclocking spoken with some vendors and manufacturers who have expert Alan to overclockers engineers stuff like that so we want to bring people out and do videos with that mom's site and do interviews with experts basically to expand the technical depth of the channel and part of that will be getting a set up here I can just sit down with them and a somewhat casual set up I don't know maybe camera back here somewhere and film out this way and that'll show the normal a role and livestream sets in the background pretty nice background good depth of field and to have a somewhat informal area to speak with guests and expand our technical reach and the content and I'm still going to be working the really long hours like whenever we have a major launch it's definitely possible that I'll be in here for 24 hours plus at a time so to accommodate that I need a couch and we don't have the budget for a massive beanbag room like some some people in the space but we're gonna do a couch by just right here and I don't know need fridge obviously food stuff so that's all pretty basic I'll show you the other rooms briefly I'm not going to talk about what's in them yet we'll kind of look at that stuff as we're going through the moving part of the vlog either at the end of this video and the next one will show you kind of the move-in process and what's going in there but we have this one so this room is one of the bigger ones and there's obviously a bit of echo right now in all these rooms but as we fill everything in the cool thing with sound is that the waves sound waves will break apart as we put stuff into intercept them so we'll be filled with stuff all of these rooms yeah they're gonna have just like cases whatever in them so that'll that'll deal with the echo we have right now this is one of the rooms show you what's in it later we can go into one of the other two right now and check that out as well so this is one of the other rooms that we we're gonna be working with it is it's not huge but it's a very good size just to give perspective right now this room alone is even though it's not even a big room it's slightly bigger than the main production we work at right now where it's not uncommon that three of us will be working in there at a time and I mean the other day Patrick's chair was hitting my chair while we were working so gives you an idea for space so this room alone is bigger than our main production right now and again we're not going crazy not spending an irresponsible amount of money on space but anything is a huge upgrade and this is a huge upgrade so anyway it's got a just a server rack except it's only the front of it so it's got old rack mat this is all old stuff from the previous tenants so this will be replaced but I don't know if we'll put in a real server rack or not I don't know if we're going full Lynas with the server or if we're just gonna keep working out of NASA's or custom builds whatever you'll hear about it as we go through all of that but anyway yeah that came with the space might not use it it's bolted into the floor which is kind of cool they actually installed it properly they have an ESD mat down there that's grounded but we'll do whatever we want with the space eventually so that may go but that's kind of gives you an idea of what's already in here so this is the last room this room comes with a pre-installed whiteboard which when we were talking out where stuff goes everyone seems to come back to the fact that this room had a whiteboard in it even though we can install one wherever we want it's a nice whiteboard though I don't hopefully is it but this is a it's a decent sized room again just like the previous two it's about the same size or slightly bigger than our existing production room and so that'll give us a give us plenty of options for working with the space but those are the main three rooms there's one more thing I want to show in the kitchen area that I just remembered that's worth pulling out from the previous tenants so the last thing I think Patrick maybe Patrick and Keegan discovered when we here the other day this is left over from the previous occupants from who knows how long ago but it's a Windows XP professional installation guide for compact pcs and I think this will actually come in in great use for us it's also old old like telecom stuff in here so we're not gonna be using any of the switchboards that you saw in the other room with the server rack of course but I guess someone did at one point so anyway give you some provenance for the office and I guess how long the previous tenants were in here or something like that I don't know I don't really know what to make of it but that's the whole space let us know what you think we have a pretty good idea of where stuff's gonna go there's still room to change things if you have an idea that you think is amazing and you want us to look in to post it below so that we can look into it before we start moving everything and that's it for now as always store document access net to pick up one of our shirts like this blue print shirt we have a black version of it as well now that we're calling chalkboard you patreon.com slash gamers Nexus tops that directly really looking forward to the new
