gentlemen we all know that companies love putting gaming in their product
names but while this is a meaningful descriptor for some components for
others it's nothing more than marketing gobbly [ __ ] your task is to arrange
these gaming parts on the board according to the most legitimate you
know what i'll go first i would say a gaming mouse is legitimately
very gaming why'd you put the mouse so high line is this this should be at the
top well no because a gaming mouse is more likely to have
better gaming you try to head shots with a quadro dude yeah
especially with the new car new drivers get out of here
and i'm standing by it
oh no it's off the charts we got SSD we're putting this way down
here boys off the charts again yeah yeah
yeah well i mean gaming monitors i would say like probably go right over whoa
like more than a mouse okay i'm gonna say that gaming RAM probably makes more
of a difference than gaming SSD because it does tend to have lower latency oh
okay yeah i can get behind that i also think the RGB makes you feel better
about yourself and so you're going to perform better that's true so maybe
interesting they're accounting for a placebo effect
okay gaming headphones oh that can tell you where the enemies
are yeah so can regular headphones that's true to a quadro what are you
comparing it to we're comparing it to products called gaming
now let's see how our participants respond to gaming desk
sorry what
no strong disagree
oh oh that is wow throw in a cup holder perhaps for
your energy drink would that improve gaming performance
but that wouldn't be for performance the drink is improving performance your
confounding variables but if you have to put it somewhere else
and go grab it every time you want to drink
that could hurt your gaming performance yeah well yeah if it doesn't have a cup
holder it has that okay all right i'm getting
it it's likely to hurt me but we gotta probably have we gotta assume it has RGB
i think we just leave it there so is there such a thing as a gaming desk
let's see what the sharkoon skiller sgd1
brings to the table
the nuforce b36 has a new version using the latest in true wireless technology
like their new mono mode for one ear use while maintaining audio file quality
sound check it out at the link in the video description
first let's start with the facts the sgd1 is a 55 by 27.5 inch desk that
stands 31 inches tall it's got a wooden table top with a
scratch and apparently splash resistant coating and hefty triangular steel legs
on balance the desk feels robust and sturdy
it's a good desk but is there anything about it that makes it
a gaming desk other than it's explicit but not in my opinion over-the-top game
ray looks well sharkun claims that the desk does
indeed have specialized functionality for gamers though i'm not sure i really
buy it let's go through these features one by one shall we
first the tabletop is large enough for essential equipment
well there's definitely enough room for a monitor keyboard and mouse though you
might have difficulty fitting your desktop on there too depending on how
big your case is especially considering the shape of the desk kind of prevents
you from comfortably sliding the rest of your stuff over still i'll let them have
this one next it's the ergonomically chamfered
edges that ensure comfortable gaming and working even over long periods they're
talking about this little slope here but it's surprisingly sweet it's easy on
your mouse ARM and if you pull the keyboard close to the edge it makes a
really nice natural wrist rest because your wrists are in a neutral position
rather than extended which can contribute to repetitive stress injuries
this one definitely counts but the strangest claim is that the protruding
elements at each side provide convenient support for the elbows
the elbows really this one wasn't working for me so i
enlisted the help of the other riders
do people game like this
oh that's way better
well there's two ways that i can see
one is if you have two
gaming computers for like
i don't know team play or something you've got an armrest right here and an
armrest right over there that's actually a pretty good point i didn't realize
that i was using this edge but would it really matter if i if i
didn't have the sketch i would still be over here
apparently pro gamers use their whole arms when they move the mess around and
you gotta like teach yourself to do this if you've got like a lot
of travel this actually lets you get a bit more
movement with the mouse it's not bad
you got to be leaning right in basically you need to be a sniper i
guess i think i get the advantage of being up close rather than having a big
monitor or whatever look at look at the amount of control that i have because my
elbow is there i could pawn so many more noobs normally
i can pawn like four to five this is a 8 9 situation
okay i'm still not sure about that one but there's actually a fair few features
that other gaming deaths offer that this one does not like a full surface mouse
pad headphone hanger or RGB lights
no RGB
but the sgd one does have a couple design elements that are nice to have
for any desk gamer or not including the
wobble killing adjustable feet integrated cable management tray and
this lovely little recess that ensures you can run cables off the desk's edge
and still be able to push it flush against the wall
very nice so should you buy this desk
while i don't think it's going to give me any more FPS i found it very easy to
assemble in just under 35 minutes with nice build quality despite the holes on
the underside not quite lining up perfectly but that didn't really take
away from the structural integrity so if you like the look and i hope you like
blue because it's the only color if you live in a region where this puppy's
actually sold or especially if you already own matching skiller products
this is a desk you can really stand behind
