at long last the final update to the wallpaper TV window saga is here I've come up with a couple of really fun ways to take advantage of the features we saw in our previous videos including its 4k resolution spectacular image quality integrated Dolby sound bar and HDR support and I'm rolling the whole thing into something people have been asking about for quite some time so step into my office we are going for a little tour sponsored by LG almost everything in here has a story behind it the textured wall on the left as you come in is not wallpaper which is what most people assume it's actually made up entirely of painted motherboards and it's not just for looks see you can hang stuff off the little i/o ports as for my desk that hasn't changed much the custom PC that was built into it was designed to my spec with a 10 Core Extreme Edition processor a 1.2 terabyte Intel PCI Express SSD and Asus workstation board with 10 gigabit networking 64 gigs of corsair dominator special edition memory 24 terabytes of local storage a totally overkill water cooling system from UK and an LG 38 you c99 38 inch 75 Hertz ultrawide monitor with a c910 webcam and a razer siren pro for video calls and some pretty boring peripherals they're actually so old they're not even they're not even Argentine I'm using a Corsair Raptor m45 because it's one of the only mice that doesn't agitate my wrists and as for my g7 10-plus honestly nothing else would feel quite right this baby has seen me through literally hundreds of thousands of words of LTT script material including the ones you're listening to right now and I have no intention of replacing it until it fails this wall here is where I keep all the sentimental stuff that I have acquired over the years I've got the world's creepiest renditions of Han Solo and Leia Organa with mine and my wife's head swapped onto them a broken thread ripper 1950 xcp you framed badminton jersey an entire silicon wafer of quantum processors that was really cool that was from when we checked out d-wave and finally one of those Chinese money cats that my wife got me as sort of a joke when we moved into this building and then he's wearing this super weird thing that this JaVale Oh company sent they were like whoa check it out you could do engraved pendants with your face on it and I was like wow who would want to do that bringing us finally to the big change now the original plan here for the wallpaper TV window was to just basically leave the room the way that it was and put the TV on the wall but as you can see we actually ended up Rikka jiggering this entire side of the room to make it significantly more functional so we added some shelving up on the top left I can use that to store ongoing projects or things like the extra modular cables for my test bench power supply we added some shelves over on the right which ended up being mostly decorative they're not really big enough to put anything that useful on and we added this built in desk so it's the right height for me as it is which means I no longer need to have one of our more expensive up desks in here we've got a pass-through power that's backed up by a UPS as well as pass-through USB power for whatever I might be running on the bench surface right here and use case number one for the wallpaper TV is that better not that does so right now I'm testing this external GPU box and there you go I'm just using it as a secondary display for the laptop right here so I've got two HDMI cables that are coming up through the bottom of the desk one of them comes up through here for a test bench and the other one comes up over here for a laptop so I can just sit here and use these throw a video up there if I want to have it playing in the background while I'm working or whatever the case may be use case number two is probably the most obvious one so using an additional PC just a little low power consumption one plugged into yet another HDMI input in the speaker bar that's below the desk here we can use a combination of stock video footage from online and our own clips like the one that's running behind me to change the environment in the room more than you would probably think so whether it's the Serengeti or whether it's a view out over the water in downtown Vancouver or from in a bad mood whatever goes better with that this use case is probably the most wow factor one for when people come into the room because the image quality on this thing is just breathtaking which isn't to say that it's necessarily the one that's most fun for me okay so let's pull this off and check this out wait this was just working this right here is the new tech studio monitor app and with this I can replace the functionality of the fifty dollar piece of glass that I could have put here with exactly the same experience for the value price of only eight thousand dollars for the TV plus a whole bunch of other gear yes my friends I can see exactly what I would have seen if we had just put a window here or thanks to the wonders of modern battery banks with AC outputs networking and I don't know tripods I can see anything I want anywhere with a network connection this thing actually does go wireless but I found that the wired connection is a little more reliable go figure right I just got the battery out of the camera is that good oh that's not good don't mind me employees I am just putting this camera here pay no attention to the camera it will not be used for surveillance don't think of it as a camera think of it as a window of opportunity check it out they don't suspect a thing my totally discreet tripod setup gives me a window into the goings-on of the lmg headquarters neat huh well whatever I like it so thanks to LG for sponsoring
