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 uc
99 38 inch 75 hertz ultra wide 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 RGB
i'm using a Corsair raptor m45 because it's one of the only mice that doesn't
agitate my wrist 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've 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 threadripper 1950x CPU uh
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 uh 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 javello
company sent they were like oh 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 reconfiguring 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 are have 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 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 uh throwa
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
if i'm 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 what is he doing
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 uh
modern battery banks with ac outputs
networking and uh i don't know tripods
i can see anything i want anywhere with a network connection this thing actually
does go wireless but i've found that the wired connection is
a little more reliable go figure right
oh i just dropped the battery out of the camera
is that good no 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
