1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,439
a high refresh rate monitor a carbon fiber gaming mouse a four sensitive

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,320
keyboard money everyone knows that these

3
00:00:07,439 --> 00:00:15,679
are the things that you need to be a great gamer or that's what PC companies

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:17,600
want you to think razor Logitech NVIDIA

5
00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:24,920
they all want you to feel like you need to spend big to win big but do you to

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:27,679
find out we built the most Tri hard PC

7
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:32,559
setup possible buying into every single claim frame and mind game that PC

8
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:37,520
Hardware manufacturer's pitch and we're going to see how much of an edge we

9
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:41,680
really get compared to the average PC which you know parts are actually worth

10
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:47,000
splurging on and which are a total waste of money you know let's talk Hardware

11
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:54,520
naturally we got to start with the best the beastly Intel Core I9 13900 K and

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:58,280
the Behemoth ASUS Rog stricks

13
00:00:54,520 --> 00:01:00,760
4090 because frames win games we've

14
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:05,119
proven it and these two pretty much always get the most frames to manage all

15
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:12,040
that power and heat we've gone with a fractal torrent equipped with a 420 mm

16
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:15,360
nice AIO from Corsair 7 140 mm nocta

17
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:17,000
industrial fans and three NF1 12s at the

18
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:20,799
bottom of the case for fresh air to our GPU which we then exhaust through the

19
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:25,439
front mounted radiator where we've removed the dust filters entirely for

20
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:29,600
better air flow finally we swapped out the stock retention bracket for a

21
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:34,000
thermal Grizzly bracket to give us a few more degrees of cooling on the CPU and

22
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:39,520
up in the attic lives our power supply from C Sonic who sponsored this video we

23
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:44,799
chose their PX 1300 because it's 80 plus Platinum certified and so even at 20%

24
00:01:42,119 --> 00:01:49,799
load this thing will be at worst 90% efficient and all their new psus in the

25
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:54,560
PX lineup come with a 12volt high power connector so you don't need this stupid

26
00:01:52,399 --> 00:02:00,680
octopus adapter when you put in the 4090 for the motherboard we are using the

27
00:01:56,119 --> 00:02:03,920
EVGA z790 dark Kingpin motherboard

28
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:06,079
specifically meant for extreme

29
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,520
overclockers notice that the RAM has been moved up to the top of the board

30
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:15,680
this is specifically to reduce the distance from the CPU to improve the

31
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:21,080
timings we've used the onboard utility to overclock our CPU to 5.8 GHz across

32
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:26,599
all cores for that extra oomph you know and of course we have ample fast storage

33
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:34,840
in the form of 10 terabytes worth of PCI Express Gen 4 and vme ssds okay now for

34
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:37,319
peripherals our Guiding Light is latency

35
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:42,920
reduction latency is the time between input and eventual output and is the

36
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:47,560
enemy of good gaming every single piece in this setup is focused on reducing the

37
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:53,480
time between targeting the enemy and seeing his head replaced with a thin Red

38
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:58,400
Mist the biggest source of latency in your system is likely going to be the

39
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:01,640
display a typical 144hz gaming display

40
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:05,200
introduces a whopping 6.94 milliseconds

41
00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:08,640
of latency compared that to the 390 Herz

42
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:10,560
of the Acer Nitro X the fastest monitor

43
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:17,680
on the market today where each frame is displayed for just 2.56 milliseconds

44
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:20,599
this Nets us a nearly 4.38 millisecond

45
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:25,239
reduction that is if you can run your games that fast in scenarios where

46
00:03:22,799 --> 00:03:29,519
performance is CPU limited like we are preventing us from running all of our

47
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:37,799
games at 390 frames per second you might want to consider the ASUS Rog Swift pg27

48
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:40,920
aqn which is 1440p and 360 HZ mean you

49
00:03:37,799 --> 00:03:42,920
can trade 30 HZ for extra image Clarity

50
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:47,239
we have both here but to reduce GPU overhead we'll be unplugging our second

51
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:53,519
monitor while gaming and for peripherals the Aon kig

52
00:03:49,439 --> 00:03:55,599
m2k uh okay this is the m1k but they

53
00:03:53,519 --> 00:04:01,000
were all out of m2ks and this uses the same sensor and switches so for our

54
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:03,599
purposes it works at just 24 RS you are

55
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:08,879
basically holding nothing this mouse doesn't waste time with side buttons or

56
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:14,239
even most of the mouse what it does have is two clicks and a scroll wheel or well

57
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,959
the m2k has a scroll wheel and 8,000 HZ

58
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:21,799
pulling rate which means that your inputs will be delayed at most

59
00:04:18,799 --> 00:04:24,320
0.125 milliseconds eight times faster

60
00:04:21,799 --> 00:04:29,560
than other piddly Gamers thousand Herz pulling rates and if you simply cannot

61
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:35,199
stand the shape then maybe recommend the more more Normy razor Viper 8 khz while

62
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:40,360
it does come in at nearly three times the weight of the Zan kig it has the

63
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:45,160
same polling rate and sensor and it is a lot easier to buy we're using a glass

64
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:49,600
mouse pad for maximum slage feels like you're moving on nothing at all nothing

65
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:55,840
at all nothing at all damn sexy Flanders our keyboard is

66
00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:58,320
the wooting 60 H what makes this so

67
00:04:55,840 --> 00:05:03,280
special is that each switch is actually an analog input meaning we can do things

68
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:08,280
like partially push our keys down to walk rather than run and we can set our

69
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:16,639
actuation point to 0.1 mm a typical key switch actuates at

70
00:05:12,479 --> 00:05:19,440
around 1.5 to 2 mm into the keystroke so

71
00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:23,680
that takes about 5 milliseconds more for that key press to register just by the

72
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:28,680
force of the action alone by setting our actuation point so much higher our key

73
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:34,080
presses will register 15 to 20 times faster than the competition

74
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:36,639
just .25 milliseconds the catch is that

75
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:41,600
our keyboard only has a th000 HZ pulling rate meaning that the average latency

76
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:45,479
will still be 1 millisecond the only way we could improve this is if the next

77
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:49,960
revision adds 8,000 HZ polling what makes this actually the best for gaming

78
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:55,520
is that it's an optical instead of a mechanical switch meaning there's no

79
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:59,800
debounce delay at all so as soon as you

80
00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:02,039
unpress a key it's instantly un un

81
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:07,880
pressed to ensure that no inputs get lost in the high polling rate Fray we

82
00:06:05,199 --> 00:06:11,319
plugged our devices into different USP controllers on our motherboard you can

83
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:17,120
use your motherboard manual to see which ports are managed by each controller oh

84
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:20,400
wait there is one other input that we

85
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:22,440
forgot to talk about our foot pedals we

86
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:28,039
can't afford to move our fingers away from those was keys so we got elgato's

87
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:32,039
stream deck foot pedals to quickly and easily map some of our less time

88
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:36,880
critical inputs to things like reloading or taunting the polling rate on this is

89
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:40,520
not nearly as high as we would hope but we might be able to overclock the thing

90
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:45,960
for a little bit lower latency that's a whole other can of worms finally we have

91
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:50,160
our audio solution for the clearest coms we went with an electrovoice re20 with

92
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:55,639
the dynamite preamp connected to our audient Evo interface for the front end

93
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:59,599
we went with the Sennheiser hd800s for its incredible Sound Stage which allows

94
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:06,120
us to pinpoint the footsteps of our enemies with ease oh yeah and we even got the

95
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:10,520
ultimate gaming router the ASUS Rog Rapture a quadband gaming router that

96
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:16,000
has tweaks to optimize Network traffic for gaming oh and uh naturally we have

97
00:07:13,639 --> 00:07:21,280
the Herman Miller embody gaming chair for maximum ergonomics and comfort we

98
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:25,080
also made some tweaks like we disabled background processes like Windows

99
00:07:22,759 --> 00:07:29,720
Defender which is always a good idea we've disabled Wi-Fi on the motherboard

100
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:33,800
to reduce Emi and CPU interrupts we've turned on multi-core enhancement set

101
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:40,120
Windows to GPU accelerated scheduling and ultimate performance power plan set

102
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:41,960
XMP on and we've given our CPU and GPU a

103
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:46,280
slight overclock to get a little bit of extra performance we aren't pushing too

104
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:51,919
hard as stability is Paramount for the sweaty tryhard gamer okay enough Theory

105
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:58,599
crafting let's see if all of this is worth it by testing it with real Gamers

106
00:07:55,039 --> 00:08:00,879
and by Gamers we mean lonus sup no wrong

107
00:07:58,599 --> 00:08:05,720
one oh get out of here we're going to compare our two setups this is the most

108
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:10,759
average gaming PC we've made one upgrade a 144 HZ monitor sure we're going to

109
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:15,479
compare that to the full try hard setup the sweatiest gaming PC absolutely get

110
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:20,000
your bearings here enjoy it play a game with the most common peripherals the

111
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:23,599
typical kind of experience a deskmat from LTT

112
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:26,879
store.com is there anyone else on this map am I are there supposed to be people

113
00:08:25,039 --> 00:08:30,879
to fight B to get out of here there's no Bots what the hell Jake okay just press

114
00:08:29,159 --> 00:08:34,279
Escape go start a bot match or you can play a real match and see how you do I

115
00:08:32,399 --> 00:08:38,519
never used to feel like the g502 was Heavy it's kind of heavy by today's

116
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:45,200
standards I use a G Pro Wireless at home and it's it's a lot

117
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:47,000
later okay oh shoot wow uh okay that was

118
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:52,360
probably the heavy Mouse uh was probably because of the heavy Mouse no no no oh

119
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:55,360
shoot no come on come on ah

120
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,360
shoot

121
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:04,480
oh ah come on no hold down tab that's where you are

122
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:10,000
on the leaderboard well you know what it's hard see that he was at the very

123
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:12,320
bottom it is hard yeah it's hard what if

124
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:17,800
we could upgrade your game all right let's try the upgrade all right welcome

125
00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:20,480
to the try hard setup 999 frames per

126
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:27,600
second this is the mouse yes it weighs but 23 g wow okay and we have you

127
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:29,800
equipped with the wooting 60hp wa this

128
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:34,600
like a hair trigger keyboard because it's an optical and analog switch you

129
00:09:31,839 --> 00:09:39,399
can set the actuation point as high or as low as you want I've set it to 0.1 mm

130
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:44,000
so that the moment you want to make an action you go it also has rapid trigger

131
00:09:42,399 --> 00:09:47,880
so the moment you relieve any pressure from the key it just stops sending a

132
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:54,040
signal you don't have to wait for it to cross back over the actuation point again that's pretty cool what is this

133
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:57,600
doing here that's your for your comms for your team and also we equi you with

134
00:09:55,959 --> 00:10:04,360
the best headphones you could find for Sound Stage okay I should definitely try

135
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:10,839
without sound first for Apples to Apples here is this a 390 HZ monitor it is it's

136
00:10:09,079 --> 00:10:17,279
the fastest monitor currently on the market okay okay got

137
00:10:13,959 --> 00:10:19,760
him come on he's right there what do you

138
00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:23,680
mean I only hit him three times okay here I have a solution no you're getting

139
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:28,880
clammy hammed you need to use gamer goo which flavor would you like and it

140
00:10:26,279 --> 00:10:33,200
comes oh I'm liking the weight of this mouse I'm not liking the shape very much

141
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:37,800
but not going to lie kind of actually feeling it okay what's the gamer goo

142
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:41,279
fine we got we got smells I don't what this got orange peppermint uh we'll put

143
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:45,519
some on your hands so you can get improve your grip it's kind of a shiny

144
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:50,200
Mouse this is chaos also we've brought you some ghost gamer neotropics what I

145
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:53,399
don't that's so a neut Tropic it's brain enhancing chemicals these are all legal

146
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:57,920
what are you even talking about I'm trying to enhance your performance Linus well it's not going to do anything

147
00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:01,160
instantly well it should have taken it 15 minutes ago cuz the amount of time it

148
00:10:59,839 --> 00:11:06,200
takes for caffeine to kick in that's the important thing to know about all of these the actual thing that matters is

149
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:10,000
the caffeine so you can just dry scoop it right now if you want um

150
00:11:14,839 --> 00:11:20,600
sure I'm going to get him some water oh God he's going to

151
00:11:18,839 --> 00:11:25,320
die I'm fine very unpleasant not recommended

152
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:30,600
honestly there's too much Randomness with just people being flipping

153
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:33,480
everywhere in this tip okay let's go

154
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:38,279
into aim lab um just press steam it's right there no I won't oh my God how do

155
00:11:35,639 --> 00:11:42,920
I even oh my God how I don't have a mouse wheel I don't know how to use a

156
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:46,680
computer without a scroll wheel how do you actually the good news is that the

157
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:51,880
newer version of this mouse does have a scroll wheel but the company only makes

158
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:54,079
a certain amount every year and they ran

159
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:57,079
out they're like two guys they're working really hard okay all right all

160
00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:01,600
right I'm probably not going to do very well oh yeah I definitely feel sweatier

161
00:11:59,560 --> 00:12:09,399
I'm a sweatier gamer for sure okay 68% accuracy so I am above

162
00:12:07,279 --> 00:12:12,399
average barely which means that you'll probably be worse when you're not

163
00:12:10,639 --> 00:12:17,440
performance enhanced but I should have more caffeine in my system with my heavy

164
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,920
ass Mouse here all right I got better

165
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,120
okay now you want to go back and try this test over here what what what did I

166
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:26,480
get that time or wait I guess it's a different test you had

167
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:30,480
45,000 I'm familiar with the test now okay let's try the sweaty setup

168
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:47,160
49,27805 kill total nice oh yeah and

169
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:53,880
just so you know this computer uh this whole setup it's um it's

170
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:58,560
$111,000 this one is about uh it's about

171
00:12:53,880 --> 00:13:01,399
600 so that extra $10,400 probably

172
00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:04,839
better inest Ed in some coaching yeah yeah or practice practice but that's not

173
00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:07,760
that's not the point pay yourself to practice but what do you think what do

174
00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:13,560
you think about some of these parts do you think that any of these actually make a huge difference like this is a

175
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:18,720
huge difference maker for me a fan yeah yeah oh yeah scores and test asde which

176
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:23,760
are affected by a human element what is the actual difference in latency between

177
00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:26,959
one system and the other on this system the average end to endend latency so

178
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:33,000
from click to when you see something happen on your screen that's 12

179
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:38,040
milliseconds really yeah which is a lot

180
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:41,079
faster than the average PC which is 26

181
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:43,360
milliseconds and yet I still can't

182
00:13:41,079 --> 00:13:46,199
really feel the difference between them huh we are really at a point of

183
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:50,399
diminishing returns here aren't we especially when you consider like human

184
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:55,800
reaction speeds and stuff like that is like around the 180 to 280 millisecond

185
00:13:52,839 --> 00:13:59,600
range you're talking about a less than a tenth of your own human reaction speed

186
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:05,240
right but in the event where two people across

187
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:09,680
the planet click at the exact same time this system's going to win out pretty

188
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:13,880
much every time damn it I haven't gotten all five of them a single time ah if you

189
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:18,759
like this video why don't you watch the one we did on the most average gaming PC

190
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:21,720
since that's really all you need evidently
