WEBVTT 00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:01.920 Full-size desktops are great 00:00:01.920 --> 00:00:04.680 for playing the latest AAA games at high frame rates, 00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:08.000 or if you need the extra muscle for video editing, 00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:11.320 3D rendering, or computer-assisted design. 00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:15.530 But if we're being honest, for most people, 00:00:15.530 --> 00:00:17.950 a thin and light basic laptop 00:00:17.950 --> 00:00:19.970 is more than enough these days 00:00:19.970 --> 00:00:23.370 and comes with the extra benefits of portability 00:00:23.370 --> 00:00:27.180 and convenience that you simply don't get with a desktop. 00:00:27.180 --> 00:00:30.900 The real bummer is when you end up having to buy both, 00:00:30.900 --> 00:00:34.500 a desktop for your gaming or your heavy work 00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:37.380 and a laptop for when you're out and about. 00:00:37.380 --> 00:00:40.960 I mean, why bother having two full CPUs 00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:42.740 installed on two motherboards 00:00:42.740 --> 00:00:46.610 when you can only really use one at a time? 00:00:46.610 --> 00:00:48.450 If only there was a solution 00:00:48.450 --> 00:00:50.490 where just by plugging one cable 00:00:50.490 --> 00:00:52.490 into that laptop you already own, 00:00:52.490 --> 00:00:55.510 you could extend it with a full-size desktop, 00:00:55.510 --> 00:00:58.110 all the peripherals and expansion you could want, 00:00:58.110 --> 00:01:01.380 and even a powerful graphics card. 00:01:01.380 --> 00:01:03.320 And I mean, while I'm dreaming, 00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:05.700 what if wireless charging was simply built 00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:08.080 right into a desk? 00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:12.170 Oh, wait, it is. 00:01:12.170 --> 00:01:13.990 And we did all that stuff. 00:01:13.990 --> 00:01:17.130 And we're gonna show you exactly how it works 00:01:17.130 --> 00:01:20.490 after this message from our sponsor, Origin. 00:01:20.490 --> 00:01:23.570 Origin PC builds custom desktops, 00:01:23.570 --> 00:01:24.470 like this one over here 00:01:24.470 --> 00:01:26.470 that we were actually using for a video earlier, 00:01:26.470 --> 00:01:29.610 and laptops with free 24-7 lifetime tech support 00:01:29.610 --> 00:01:30.450 and high-quality components, 00:01:30.450 --> 00:01:30.570 and laptops with free 24-7 lifetime tech support, 00:01:30.570 --> 00:01:30.650 and laptops with free 24-7 lifetime tech support, 00:01:30.650 --> 00:01:34.310 like Samsung's 970 EVO and M.2 SSD. 00:01:34.310 --> 00:01:46.200 Check them out at the link in the video description. 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.880 So step zero for making your very own 00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:52.160 one cable desk dock thing 00:01:52.160 --> 00:01:54.360 is having a compatible laptop. 00:01:54.360 --> 00:01:56.760 You don't get dual 4K monitors, 00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:58.500 10 gig file transfers, 00:01:58.500 --> 00:02:01.060 and 85 watts of charging 00:02:01.060 --> 00:02:04.360 through a regular old micro USB port and cable. 00:02:04.360 --> 00:02:05.940 No, for this to work, 00:02:05.940 --> 00:02:09.540 you need a laptop with at least one Thunderbolt 3 port. 00:02:09.540 --> 00:02:12.560 And we would strongly recommend finding one 00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:16.700 that has a four by PCI express lane interface. 00:02:16.700 --> 00:02:21.200 So Thunderbolt 3 looks like a normal USB type C port, 00:02:21.200 --> 00:02:25.480 except for this little lightning bolt emblem 00:02:25.480 --> 00:02:27.320 that isn't even always there. 00:02:27.320 --> 00:02:28.560 So the Thunderbolt 3 port 00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:31.420 on our 2018 Razer Blade Stealth, for example, 00:02:31.420 --> 00:02:33.640 is totally unmarked. 00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:35.420 If you need to double check your device, 00:02:35.420 --> 00:02:36.620 you can always search for it 00:02:36.620 --> 00:02:39.020 on the Thunderbolt Technology website. 00:02:39.020 --> 00:02:39.740 Now, for the most important part, 00:02:39.740 --> 00:02:43.160 for step one, plan your layout. 00:02:43.160 --> 00:02:45.580 At a minimum, your desktop is going to need 00:02:45.580 --> 00:02:48.980 a Thunderbolt 3 hub for everything to run through. 00:02:48.980 --> 00:02:51.340 Luckily for us, CalDigit was kind enough 00:02:51.340 --> 00:02:54.240 to send us their flagship TS3 Plus, 00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:56.740 which can provide 85 watts of power. 00:02:56.740 --> 00:02:58.960 That's enough to charge a MacBook Pro. 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:01.520 And it's got enough ports for your peripherals, 00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:05.320 wired internet, and a 10 gigabit external drive. 00:03:05.320 --> 00:03:08.620 Oh, also up to two 4K monitors. 00:03:08.620 --> 00:03:09.740 Now, you could just get a 4K monitor, 00:03:09.740 --> 00:03:11.120 get a device like this, 00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:14.680 and call it a day with no other parts necessary. 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:17.600 But to make our setup really special, 00:03:17.600 --> 00:03:20.880 we wanted to add an external graphics card enclosure 00:03:20.880 --> 00:03:24.940 so that our desktop not only makes our laptop easier to use 00:03:24.940 --> 00:03:27.500 with a monitor and peripherals and, you know, 00:03:27.500 --> 00:03:28.860 lots of ports and all that, 00:03:28.860 --> 00:03:32.500 but also substantially more powerful. 00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:35.640 So that ended up making things a bit more complicated. 00:03:35.640 --> 00:03:39.720 For starters, while Thunderbolt 3 does support daisy chain, 00:03:39.740 --> 00:03:42.820 up to six devices off of a single port, 00:03:42.820 --> 00:03:46.120 you can't just plug your graphics card into your dock. 00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.660 Unless your eGPU is the first device in the chain, 00:03:49.660 --> 00:03:52.300 you'll get awful latency at best, 00:03:52.300 --> 00:03:57.060 and at worst, random crashes or total non-functionality. 00:03:57.060 --> 00:04:00.440 Okay, so we just switch the order then, right? 00:04:00.440 --> 00:04:05.700 Laptop to eGPU, eGPU to dock, oh. 00:04:05.860 --> 00:04:10.280 So at the time of writing, the odds of your eGPU having two ports 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.780 on it for daisy chaining are pretty low. 00:04:12.780 --> 00:04:16.100 The only options we're aware of are the Blackmagic eGPU, 00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:19.160 which only works with Macs, the Akitio Node Duo, 00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:21.440 which is designed to hold two cards, 00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:24.260 but at only half the bandwidth each, 00:04:24.260 --> 00:04:26.480 and the Akitio Node Pro, 00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:28.820 which is exactly what we ended up using. 00:04:28.820 --> 00:04:33.460 It solves our problems, but it has a gotcha. 00:04:33.460 --> 00:04:37.980 Even though our TS3 Plus hub can deliver 85 watts of power, 00:04:37.980 --> 00:04:40.280 your laptop only receives power 00:04:40.280 --> 00:04:43.980 from the device that it is directly connected to. 00:04:43.980 --> 00:04:46.320 So in our case, that's the Node Pro, 00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:48.940 whose Thunderbolt 3 ports can only deliver 00:04:48.940 --> 00:04:51.360 up to 60 watts of power. 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.020 So machines with higher power demands, 00:04:54.020 --> 00:04:57.760 like the MacBook Pro, could end up trickle charging. 00:04:57.760 --> 00:05:00.280 Fortunately for us, that is not the case 00:05:00.280 --> 00:05:04.920 for my Blade Stealth 2017, so our journey continues. 00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:07.700 Step two then, choose a suitable desk. 00:05:07.700 --> 00:05:10.280 As you can see, our finished desk dock 00:05:10.280 --> 00:05:12.580 is completely stealthed, 00:05:12.580 --> 00:05:14.520 meaning that even though it's got 00:05:14.520 --> 00:05:18.040 integrated wireless charging and a freaking graphics card, 00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.400 you can't see either of those things 00:05:20.400 --> 00:05:21.960 when you're sitting at the desk. 00:05:21.960 --> 00:05:24.400 And that is only possible because of the planning 00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:26.300 that we did back in step one. 00:05:26.300 --> 00:05:28.600 So we limited our options to ones 00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.380 with enough cabinet space and thickness 00:05:31.380 --> 00:05:34.480 to contain all of our devices and our cables, 00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:37.520 with obvious cable management runs for bonus points. 00:05:37.520 --> 00:05:39.480 This one fit the bill nicely, 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.300 and we're mostly thrilled 00:05:41.300 --> 00:05:43.960 with how the finished product looks. 00:05:43.960 --> 00:05:47.020 But we're gonna stop short of a recommendation here 00:05:47.020 --> 00:05:48.700 because the desk's build quality 00:05:48.700 --> 00:05:50.120 is a bit of a disappointment. 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:52.000 It's basically Ikea level. 00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.240 It even uses the same dowels and hardware, 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:56.700 but it was at least twice what you'd expect to pay 00:05:56.700 --> 00:05:58.200 at the blue and yellow store. 00:05:58.200 --> 00:06:00.240 And it is full of little oversights, 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:03.480 like these holes here that aren't even big enough 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:07.600 to accommodate the screws that are included with the desk. 00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.280 Now it's time for power tools. 00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:13.860 Step three is to hide the eGPU inside the desk somehow. 00:06:13.860 --> 00:06:16.740 Our desk arrived before our eGPU did, 00:06:16.740 --> 00:06:18.780 but the on paper specs indicated 00:06:18.780 --> 00:06:21.920 that it was just a bit smaller than the cabinet. 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.160 That is as long as the drawers weren't in the way. 00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.040 So we made room by shortening the drawers. 00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:29.880 This created an empty space at the back of the cabinet 00:06:29.880 --> 00:06:31.720 while maintaining the original look. 00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.200 And what's really cool is that these drawers 00:06:34.200 --> 00:06:37.120 can still be used to hold a couple of pens 00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.400 or like a single banana. 00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:41.200 When it actually arrived though, 00:06:41.200 --> 00:06:43.900 we did find out that once you accounted for cables 00:06:43.900 --> 00:06:47.000 and drawer rails, there really wasn't enough room 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.440 for the giant eGPU chassis. 00:06:49.440 --> 00:06:52.500 Fortunately, we were able to extract the parts that matter 00:06:52.500 --> 00:06:56.380 and then prop them up on a janky frame made out of scrap wood 00:06:56.380 --> 00:06:59.240 that did fit inside the hollowed cabinet. 00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:02.480 One more thing, we learned from our last desk project 00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:04.980 that cooling is super important. 00:07:04.980 --> 00:07:08.480 So we used a hole saw to bore a four fan breezeway, 00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:09.540 then used fan splitters 00:07:09.540 --> 00:07:12.020 to connect our fans to the single fan header 00:07:12.020 --> 00:07:15.260 that was already on the Node Pros PCB. 00:07:15.260 --> 00:07:19.300 Step three was installing an invisible wireless charger. 00:07:19.300 --> 00:07:22.000 Now the original plan here was to simply cut 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:24.800 a charging pad sized hole in the top of the desk 00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:28.300 and then have the exposed pad kind of poking through. 00:07:28.300 --> 00:07:29.280 But then we remembered, 00:07:29.280 --> 00:07:33.500 hey, we have a giant CNC router and an Alex. 00:07:33.500 --> 00:07:37.520 So he programmed a basic design, including a cable channel. 00:07:37.520 --> 00:07:39.460 And after a couple of test cuts to make sure 00:07:39.460 --> 00:07:42.920 that this low quality chipboard didn't just explode 00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:44.380 on contact with the blade, 00:07:44.380 --> 00:07:47.320 we were able to carve out a recess for the charging pad 00:07:47.320 --> 00:07:49.420 to nest into from the bottom, 00:07:49.420 --> 00:07:51.700 leaving the surface of the desk intact, 00:07:51.700 --> 00:07:53.460 but as thin as possible 00:07:53.460 --> 00:07:56.360 to maximize the charging pad's effectiveness. 00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:58.220 Then we added these classy dots 00:07:58.220 --> 00:08:00.140 to show you where the heck the thing is. 00:08:00.140 --> 00:08:01.500 Cool, right? 00:08:01.500 --> 00:08:04.560 Step four was mounting the Thunderbolt 3 hub. 00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.960 So the TS3 Plus has IO on the front 00:08:06.960 --> 00:08:08.900 that we wanted to be able to access. 00:08:09.460 --> 00:08:11.400 And the TS3 Plus has IO on the back 00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:13.280 that we wanted to be able to access. 00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:15.460 So we had to use Velcro tape on the top 00:08:15.460 --> 00:08:17.700 to mount it to the underside of the desk. 00:08:17.700 --> 00:08:20.700 This gives us both a discreet, slick looking finish 00:08:20.700 --> 00:08:23.400 and the ability to pull the device off easily 00:08:23.400 --> 00:08:25.340 instead of contorting our spines 00:08:25.340 --> 00:08:27.960 in the event that we need to plug something into the back. 00:08:27.960 --> 00:08:30.340 Step five, cable management. 00:08:30.340 --> 00:08:33.340 Our desk did come with cable management holes in the middle, 00:08:33.340 --> 00:08:35.020 but we added a few more of our own 00:08:35.020 --> 00:08:36.720 so that we could route all of the cables 00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:39.460 from the inside of the desk and the cabinet, 00:08:39.460 --> 00:08:41.600 and the table leg. 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:42.980 Once you're done then, 00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:46.260 the only loose cable that you should ever have to interact 00:08:46.260 --> 00:08:48.820 with is the Thunderbolt 3 cable 00:08:48.820 --> 00:08:50.160 that you plug into your machine. 00:08:50.160 --> 00:08:51.320 And this is cool. 00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:54.600 It can actually go on either side of this divider down here, 00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:56.940 thanks to the hole that we drilled at the back. 00:08:56.940 --> 00:09:00.320 That means that it doesn't matter which side of your device 00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:02.400 your Thunderbolt 3 port is on. 00:09:02.400 --> 00:09:03.380 So that's how we did it, 00:09:03.380 --> 00:09:04.920 but let me show you guys how it works. 00:09:04.920 --> 00:09:07.580 So first, I have to configure my laptop 00:09:07.580 --> 00:09:09.500 to not go to sleep when I close the lid. 00:09:09.820 --> 00:09:11.360 Obviously, I could have set up the desk 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.240 so that the laptop goes here, 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:14.640 and then it just stays open 00:09:14.640 --> 00:09:16.920 and I could use it as a second monitor or whatever else, 00:09:16.920 --> 00:09:20.300 but we were going for the cleanest setup. 00:09:20.300 --> 00:09:22.580 So once it's powered, 00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:24.220 I can go ahead and close the lid 00:09:24.220 --> 00:09:26.240 and it's not gonna go to sleep. 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:27.940 You can just kinda tuck it in there. 00:09:27.940 --> 00:09:31.700 Now we give it like somewhere between five and 10 seconds, 00:09:31.700 --> 00:09:34.400 and our monitor should come to life. 00:09:34.400 --> 00:09:39.740 Our peripherals should, come on baby, start working. 00:09:39.740 --> 00:09:40.040 There we go. 00:09:40.040 --> 00:09:42.260 And check this out. 00:09:42.260 --> 00:09:45.670 If I hop over to device manager, 00:09:45.670 --> 00:09:47.130 we might even be able to catch it showing up here. 00:09:47.130 --> 00:09:48.390 Nope, it's already there. 00:09:48.390 --> 00:09:51.630 GeForce GTX 1080 TI. 00:09:51.630 --> 00:09:55.170 So because this is a quad core Ultrabook, 00:09:55.170 --> 00:09:58.150 that means that we are actually in a position 00:09:58.150 --> 00:10:02.330 where we can play AAA level games on our Ultrabook 00:10:02.330 --> 00:10:03.510 just with this one cable. 00:10:03.510 --> 00:10:08.440 So I'm gonna go ahead and fire up Rise of the Tomb Raider. 00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:09.620 One other really cool thing 00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:10.900 that I don't actually have set up here 00:10:10.900 --> 00:10:14.460 is that with some of the other high-speed USB ports 00:10:14.460 --> 00:10:16.660 on the back of this CalDigit device, 00:10:16.660 --> 00:10:19.780 you could also do something like have a high-speed 00:10:19.780 --> 00:10:23.340 either SSD or hard drive that you've got pre-attached 00:10:23.340 --> 00:10:25.340 and then just like, I don't know, taped to the top 00:10:25.340 --> 00:10:27.700 or even just hanging out back there, 00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:29.460 like plugged into something like this. 00:10:29.460 --> 00:10:30.460 And then what would happen is 00:10:30.460 --> 00:10:32.920 even if you didn't have a ton of storage on your laptop, 00:10:32.920 --> 00:10:35.280 you could plug it in and boom, 00:10:35.280 --> 00:10:38.840 your Steam library with hundreds of gigabytes of games 00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:40.820 would automatically be remapped. 00:10:40.820 --> 00:10:41.820 And then accessible to you. 00:10:41.820 --> 00:10:44.980 That's something that actually already works fairly well. 00:10:44.980 --> 00:10:48.040 So let's go ahead and continue our game here. 00:10:48.040 --> 00:10:51.620 So this is Rise of the Tomb Raider running at mostly high. 00:10:51.620 --> 00:10:53.120 I've got motion blur disabled 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:55.580 and a couple of other things that I just kind of prefer. 00:10:55.580 --> 00:11:00.580 But this is that mostly high details running at 75, 00:11:01.020 --> 00:11:03.620 70 to 75 frames per second. 00:11:03.620 --> 00:11:05.580 And the coolest thing about it is actually something 00:11:05.580 --> 00:11:07.460 that probably won't be obvious 00:11:07.460 --> 00:11:08.980 to you guys watching right now. 00:11:08.980 --> 00:11:09.820 And that's this. 00:11:09.820 --> 00:11:10.820 So my microphone's right here. 00:11:10.820 --> 00:11:15.900 It's basically silent. 00:11:15.900 --> 00:11:18.120 So for peace of mind, next time around, 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:20.780 I'd probably put an 80 millimeter fan in the back 00:11:20.780 --> 00:11:23.780 and just have it draw some air across the laptop. 00:11:23.780 --> 00:11:25.400 But honestly, we left it running 00:11:25.400 --> 00:11:28.240 for over an hour yesterday in a game 00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.880 and our CPU never hit above 65 degrees. 00:11:30.880 --> 00:11:32.080 So it was chilly in our warehouse, 00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:34.930 but basically at room temperature, 00:11:34.930 --> 00:11:37.010 you'd never see above about 75. 00:11:37.010 --> 00:11:39.530 And then our GPU stayed downright frosty 00:11:39.530 --> 00:11:42.390 with all those cooling fans circulating air in the cabinet. 00:11:42.390 --> 00:11:45.330 Honestly, the loudest fan in this thing 00:11:45.330 --> 00:11:47.410 is the one in the included power supply 00:11:47.410 --> 00:11:49.150 from the Akitio Node Pro. 00:11:49.150 --> 00:11:51.890 So to do it again, I do the cooling fan 00:11:51.890 --> 00:11:54.190 and then probably swap out that power supply. 00:11:54.190 --> 00:11:56.170 Silverstone has some really great options 00:11:56.170 --> 00:11:58.570 for semi silent units. 00:11:58.570 --> 00:12:00.130 They've got like an 800 watt 00:12:00.130 --> 00:12:01.690 that I think the fan only turns on 00:12:01.690 --> 00:12:04.450 if you draw over like two or 300 watts of power. 00:12:04.450 --> 00:12:06.710 So something like that would make this whole setup, 00:12:06.710 --> 00:12:10.770 not just stealthy to the eye, but also stealthy to the ear. 00:12:10.770 --> 00:12:11.610 All right. 00:12:11.610 --> 00:12:12.750 Well, because we kind of have to, 00:12:12.750 --> 00:12:16.010 let's fire up Fortnite and have a look at what it thinks 00:12:16.010 --> 00:12:18.570 will be the ideal settings for our system here. 00:12:18.570 --> 00:12:19.450 50% off what? 00:12:19.450 --> 00:12:20.670 Do I have to pay for that? 00:12:20.670 --> 00:12:21.650 You gotta be kidding me. 00:12:21.650 --> 00:12:25.760 What is this? 00:12:25.760 --> 00:12:29.160 So it has defaulted us to our, 00:12:29.160 --> 00:12:32.980 I don't know why there's a frame rate limit. 00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:33.820 You know what? 00:12:33.820 --> 00:12:35.780 I'm just gonna do this myself. 00:12:35.780 --> 00:12:36.780 Motion blur, off. 00:12:36.780 --> 00:12:39.580 No, God, why would anyone want that? 00:12:39.580 --> 00:12:41.920 All right, not bad. 00:12:41.920 --> 00:12:44.260 So we're running in the neighborhood 00:12:44.740 --> 00:12:46.680 70 to 80 FPS. 00:12:46.680 --> 00:12:48.840 I've seen dips down to 55 or 60. 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:51.570 Let's go ahead and jump out of the battle bus here. 00:12:51.570 --> 00:12:56.190 Yep, so around 50 at the lowest as we're falling. 00:12:56.190 --> 00:12:57.950 So I could probably improve that 00:12:57.950 --> 00:12:59.690 by dropping a couple things down to medium, 00:12:59.690 --> 00:13:01.770 but overall, very playable. 00:13:01.770 --> 00:13:04.750 And remember, this is at 3840 by 1600 resolution 00:13:04.750 --> 00:13:08.120 running off of a laptop CPU. 00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:09.900 Super impressed. 00:13:09.900 --> 00:13:12.380 I mean, I could take his plane, right? 00:13:12.380 --> 00:13:13.220 Yeah. 00:13:13.220 --> 00:13:15.210 Wee! 00:13:15.210 --> 00:13:17.540 Bye loser. 00:13:18.140 --> 00:13:19.940 I'm definitely getting a little bit of chop 00:13:19.940 --> 00:13:20.940 that I wouldn't be expecting. 00:13:20.940 --> 00:13:22.880 I think there's a little bit more tuning required 00:13:22.880 --> 00:13:27.000 to get this running as smoothly as I would expect 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:28.840 for the FPS that we're getting. 00:13:32.820 --> 00:13:33.660 We gotta get out of here. 00:13:33.660 --> 00:13:34.500 We gotta get out of here. 00:13:34.500 --> 00:13:35.880 Oh, damn. 00:13:35.880 --> 00:13:39.000 So maybe a couple more things to tweak here. 00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:41.240 Now that I've seen this fall down once, 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:45.440 some kind of reinforcement so it stays in place better. 00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:46.640 Probably a good idea. 00:13:46.640 --> 00:13:49.500 Also, using a mouse directly on a desk surface 00:13:49.500 --> 00:13:50.460 is not something I'd recommend. 00:13:50.460 --> 00:13:53.700 If we had thought for certain 00:13:53.700 --> 00:13:55.760 that there was no way we were gonna damage the table, 00:13:55.760 --> 00:13:57.560 what we would have really wanted to do 00:13:57.560 --> 00:14:00.760 was route out exactly the shape of a mouse pad 00:14:00.760 --> 00:14:02.640 and then have it recessed in the table. 00:14:02.640 --> 00:14:04.800 That's something we'd probably wanna do on a V2, 00:14:04.800 --> 00:14:07.480 but I mean, other than that, 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:09.060 I'm super proud of the result here. 00:14:09.060 --> 00:14:13.760 I gave James the task of creating the cleanest setup, 00:14:13.760 --> 00:14:18.820 bar none, and as far as I'm concerned, mission accomplished. 00:14:18.820 --> 00:14:20.680 I think the only thing left now 00:14:20.680 --> 00:14:22.780 is maybe to do like an updated version 00:14:22.780 --> 00:14:26.940 for our MacBook user viewers 00:14:26.940 --> 00:14:29.220 with maybe a couple of the tweaks that we've talked about, 00:14:29.220 --> 00:14:30.700 but we'll see. 00:14:30.700 --> 00:14:31.620 Let us know in the comments 00:14:31.620 --> 00:14:33.720 if you'd like to see a follow-up. 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:35.080 And now I wanna thank our sponsor 00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:36.820 for today's video, Massdrop. 00:14:36.820 --> 00:14:38.800 They collaborated with Koss 00:14:38.800 --> 00:14:42.160 to bring their original 1984 design 00:14:42.160 --> 00:14:45.440 and update it to make it modern and durable 00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:46.380 while remaining light. 00:14:46.380 --> 00:14:48.060 So these are portable on-ear headphones that can be used, 00:14:48.060 --> 00:14:50.900 that can be folded up in different configurations 00:14:50.900 --> 00:14:53.220 to make them compact for easy storage. 00:14:53.220 --> 00:14:58.130 They use oxygen-free copper voice coils 00:14:58.130 --> 00:15:01.050 for great audio and a warm, smooth experience, 00:15:01.050 --> 00:15:03.410 and the single-button control lets you skip tracks, 00:15:03.410 --> 00:15:05.770 make calls, and activate voice commands 00:15:05.770 --> 00:15:07.610 through the noise-canceling mic. 00:15:07.610 --> 00:15:09.910 It's backed by Koss's lifetime warranty, 00:15:09.910 --> 00:15:11.410 and you can join the drop today 00:15:11.410 --> 00:15:14.230 and grab yourself a pair of these for $37.99 00:15:14.230 --> 00:15:16.270 at the link in the video description. 00:15:16.270 --> 00:15:17.670 So thanks for watching, guys. 00:15:17.670 --> 00:15:19.410 If you disliked this video, 00:15:19.410 --> 00:15:20.470 you can hit that button. 00:15:20.470 --> 00:15:22.950 But if you liked it, hit like, get subscribed, 00:15:22.950 --> 00:15:23.970 or maybe consider checking out 00:15:23.970 --> 00:15:25.470 where to buy the stuff we featured 00:15:25.470 --> 00:15:27.350 at the link in the video description. 00:15:27.350 --> 00:15:28.610 Also down there is our merch store, 00:15:28.610 --> 00:15:30.690 which has cool shirts like the one I'm wearing, 00:15:30.690 --> 00:15:33.230 and our community forum, which you should totally join. 00:15:33.230 --> 00:15:36.430 And yes, the animation smoothness is way better 00:15:36.430 --> 00:15:38.390 as soon as I dropped the render resolution 00:15:38.390 --> 00:15:39.530 down a little bit. 00:15:39.530 --> 00:15:44.440 I think it was just struggling a bit at basically 4K.
