00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,480
two years ago James checked out version one of the goie AI sync box well they're

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:10,120
back again sponsoring this video for us to check out Gen 2 they make one that's

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:16,199
compatible with their TV as well but we're going to check out the PC

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:18,840
one we're the AI sync box actually takes

5
00:00:16,199 --> 00:00:23,560
your HDMI input from your devices and then has an output to your

6
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:27,240
TV and using that signal it can use its AI calculations to actually project

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:31,519
lights onto your wall so you can get a more immersive experience but let's see

8
00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:35,200
what it comes with here paper quick start guide which is more paper oh this

9
00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:38,960
is the sync box itself oh wow it's got four HDMI inputs and one out that's

10
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,520
actually one more than last year's model and these HDMI inputs are actually 2.1

11
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,480
as well meaning you can go all the way up to 8K 60 which you probably won't do

12
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:52,280
cuz you don't have an 8K TV but that means you can do 4K 144 which is

13
00:00:48,559 --> 00:00:53,760
fantastic for gaming and 1440p at 240

14
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,559
it's got everything and then it's also got two outputs here in type c and

15
00:00:55,359 --> 00:01:01,600
that's for connecting the lights that actually come with this kit here the last connector is just the power on the

16
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:04,799
back here and then RGB strip all along because this sits on your desk in front

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:08,759
of you while you're gaming and it can do RGB diffusion as well and these are the

18
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:13,000
two goie light bars here they each sit on either side of your monitor with the

19
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:16,159
LEDs facing the wall away from where you're sitting so they can diffuse on

20
00:01:14,439 --> 00:01:20,920
the wall here and they connect with your type-c to those ports we talked about

21
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:24,920
earlier got some nice sleeved HDMI cables for two of them I guess one going

22
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:29,640
in from whatever console or PC and then back to your monitor in this box here we

23
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:33,920
have the RGB icw LED strip which now featur features 75 LEDs per meter

24
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,720
instead of 60 it's all rolled up nicely for you with a 3M sticky on the back for

25
00:01:35,799 --> 00:01:40,520
you to be able to stick it to your monitor 15 more LEDs might not sound

26
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:46,159
like a lot but it really does help with more color contrast and more variety in

27
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:48,200
your color diffusion oh these are the

28
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:52,640
stands I thought this was actually just the goie logo itself there's one power

29
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:56,719
cable there that's the barrel end Jack comes with a little screwdriver what are

30
00:01:54,360 --> 00:02:00,240
we screwing 3M sticky pads this is for the light strips for sticking behind

31
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:06,039
your monitor on your TV your TV cabinet whatever that's a very big bag for six

32
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,039
screws these towers are also RGB icw

33
00:02:06,039 --> 00:02:12,640
meaning they added a white LED over last year which helps with brightness color

34
00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:15,920
accuracy diffusion again overall these RGB lights are better than last year's

35
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:21,560
we're going to go install our RGB strip on the back of our monitor really quick where did I put the me clips oh there

36
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:26,599
they are looks like we have some clips left over from our last video that

37
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:30,480
might make this very easy to mount then installation's overall pretty easy you

38
00:02:28,239 --> 00:02:33,560
just need to peel the 3M off this but you want to also make sure you use the

39
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:38,200
included alcohol pads to wipe down wherever you're going to be sticking it

40
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:43,080
in our case around the clip area along the sides here they have actually short

41
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:46,440
sides on the LED which go on the short side of your monitor and then the long

42
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:50,239
side so it actually is kind of hard to mess it up this Kit's compatible with

43
00:02:47,959 --> 00:02:54,720
the 27 to 34in gaming monitors and then the TV one ranges from 55 all the way up

44
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,319
to 85 depending on which kit you buy using some of the clips to hold the

45
00:02:55,879 --> 00:03:00,920
corners down just so they're out of the way but it was pretty quick install

46
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:05,400
overall we unfortunately have this open cap in R monitor which caused it to kind

47
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:09,120
of do this W motion it still sticks very well it's going to be totally fine once

48
00:03:07,239 --> 00:03:12,920
we actually get the LEDs on have to swap out our DisplayPort cable for the

49
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:17,840
included HDMI ones this one goes from our GPU into the Inn on the goie box

50
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:21,040
which again this features four HDMI ins so you could use it as an HDMI switcher

51
00:03:19,959 --> 00:03:28,760
which is pretty cool it's not even advertised for that but hey why not the USB from the strips here going into this

52
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:34,000
output and then the HDMI from the monitor is going into the HDMI

53
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:38,080
output and then our towers are already plugged in as well are they labeled left

54
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:42,720
and right they're labeled G for go wherever the hell you want a there we go

55
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:46,840
okay so the two buttons on the side here this back one is for power this one is

56
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:50,439
the toggle between the four HDMI ports and when you're toggling each section

57
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:54,280
kind of lights up to let you know which one you're in so 1 2 3 or four took a

58
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,519
little bit to figure that out but we're here with our computer connected let's

59
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,879
see if we can actually test the colors here oh wow without even fully setting

60
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:05,239
up the yet you can see the light Trail going all the way down it's pretty cool

61
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:10,360
I think later in this video there's color wheel too W that's not the coolest

62
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:14,159
feature though it boasts a feature called cogn glow as well which is an AI

63
00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:18,000
tool that can read whatever game you're playing and give you led effects based

64
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:23,600
on what you're doing which we're going to check out but an example is if you're healing an apex it actually like charges

65
00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:27,720
your health bar it's pretty cool let's go let's play a game so just walking

66
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:31,199
around the map you can see changes based on whatever object we have so we have

67
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:35,120
kind of a more yellowy Brown object and the light even changes going out to the

68
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:40,639
daylight it's pretty cool but let's test like a flashbang let's see if it just blinds us

69
00:04:38,039 --> 00:04:43,639
here I definitely turned that one to bright white we haven't even adjusted

70
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:47,120
the settings in the app yet so I don't know if this is Max brightness or not

71
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:52,280
but maybe on Max brightness it'll actually like flashbang you which would be kind of funny it does give a feeling

72
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,800
like you're entering indoors just because it's so bright from the outside

73
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:59,280
and then as you walk in everything kind of just dims around you and the good

74
00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:02,720
news is if you already have some lights set up you could actually pair it

75
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,639
with this box already using their AI dream view which allows you to maybe

76
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:11,360
sync all of them together increasing your Ambience the environment around you

77
00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:14,520
as you walk in it all dims or flashbang yourself we didn't pair this led just

78
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:18,800
because we wanted to test the kit that it comes with and it's already pretty

79
00:05:16,759 --> 00:05:22,360
good even on this blue wall which is probably like the worst case scenario so

80
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:27,000
our brightness was actually at 100% which is fine but you can also adjust relative brightness so you could just

81
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:30,639
have the bars go brighter than the backlight or vice versa but there's a

82
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:35,639
saturation slide here I'm going to crank that up to 100% is it different okay in

83
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:41,199
in person it's very subtle oh wow that's way more noticeable

84
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:46,400
when it's already very dark and then you flashbang that's pretty cool I could

85
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:49,520
imagine like having a full room of this it' be pretty funny if somehow like

86
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:52,880
you're playing a game and actually just go blind there's one effect I think in

87
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:58,120
League where you get like a double kill and then a triple kill and even a Penta kill the lights will change I'm not that

88
00:05:56,280 --> 00:06:02,160
good to test that one but it's those kind of features that the AI box really

89
00:06:00,039 --> 00:06:05,560
shines through for in-game events to help increase your immersion some other

90
00:06:04,039 --> 00:06:09,880
Mis stuff it's compatible with smart home features with matter support vrr as

91
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:13,599
well as autol low latency mode and overall I think it does really help to

92
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:18,520
the immersion of whatever you're either watching or you're playing for $280 the

93
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:23,000
PC kit including the two lamps the LED strips the 4-in-1 HDMI box which doubles

94
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,919
as an HDMI splitter it's a pretty compelling offer to help increase your

95
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:31,000
immersion in your game or your movies and the TV kit actually starts at 240 so

96
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:35,440
if you just want to increase your movie watching or your couch console games I

97
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,400
think it's kind of a fine offer to have and it looks sleek too but let us know

98
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,759
what you guys think down below thanks again for sponsoring this video

99
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,199
maybe go check out the first version that James did almost two years ago so

100
00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:47,160
that way you can see some of the differences
