1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,720
You think gaming chairs have gotten boring? Not this one!

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:09,120
Get down! Ah! The only good bug is a damn bug!

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:10,120
Ah!

4
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:17,680
You may remember when we looked at the Cluven Scorpion Chair-in, it turns out

5
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:22,480
they have a whole range of products covering the entire sci-fi spectrum,

6
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,440
from the stylings of Prometheus, all the way to Starship Troopers.

7
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:34,880
Unofficially, of course. And this is the M2HB50Cal BMG Ultimate Gaming Cockpit!

8
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,800
A sum-assembly-required Ultimate Gaming Cockpit!

9
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,840
I was told it would be more assembled. You made the mistake of believing Cluvens.

10
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:06,520
Okay, I see what the shape of the chair is now. There's less assembly than I first feared.

11
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:11,080
But what little assembly there is is going to be a bit of a challenge. The total weight of this chair,

12
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,800
given its nearly all-steel construction, is over 600 pounds.

13
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,000
Geez Louise, and that's without monitors and PC, and this guy over here.

14
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,520
I think I found our first gun. Geez!

15
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,840
Oh, crap! Are you selling it, or are you-

16
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,120
No, it's so much heavier than I expected. Like, now you'll be expecting it, but like...

17
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,320
What the heck? Does that make the point?

18
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:39,360
I think they mixed up our orders and gave us real guns.

19
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:44,360
Oh! It's so much more realistic than I expected.

20
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,880
Dude, this is so cool. Whoa.

21
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,720
It has moving parts. Yes!

22
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:56,000
These obviously aren't real guns, but they feel so real.

23
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,800
Like, there's weight to the man. Oh, look at this.

24
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,120
The one and only Jamie Pilke brought me one of this season's new colors

25
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,320
for our long sleeve, but that's beautiful.

26
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,320
You can get it on lttstore.com, but given the theme of today's video,

27
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,520
I'm actually going to go with the olive. The combat look. Yeah.

28
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,000
But you can get this one today at lttstore.com. Thanks, Jamie.

29
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,360
Okay, let's put the guns down and see what else we got going on. Sorry, you want me to put these down?

30
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,960
There was no manual online, so I'm really counting on there being a manual in here.

31
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,840
Literally everything's made of steel. Well, that explains the weight.

32
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,800
What do they do in the bag? What?

33
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,840
Okay, that's pretty cool. Now you have to keep it in your house.

34
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,080
Because, yeah, I don't think I signed that agreement anywhere.

35
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,200
Oh, I found the barrel for our gun. While David continues unpacking things,

36
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,680
I want to talk through some of the features of our gaming chair here.

37
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,760
The chair itself uses PU leather

38
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,960
with a high density cold-care PU sponge.

39
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,240
And the idea behind that is that it should have some give,

40
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,280
but it should also provide strong support.

41
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:08,400
Actually, initial impressions, not bad as far as gaming chairs go.

42
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,160
It even has some lumbar support. This one looked a lot more comfy in the photos

43
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,880
than the Scorpion did. Although that's a pretty low bar.

44
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,880
What the old Scorpion chair did a good job of, though, was the integrated cable management.

45
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:24,760
And the M2HB50 cal follows in its footsteps very nicely.

46
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,760
Inside here, we've got not one, not two, but three, but four.

47
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,680
Wait, did I say four displays? I meant five. Three HDMI's and two display ports.

48
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,800
Wait, the HDMI's are not all the same. They've got two different cables in here.

49
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,320
Also in here is a sketchy-looking power bar.

50
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,200
Holy crap. The HAYU electrical appliances,

51
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,840
no model number power bar, features international plugs,

52
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,480
which I don't think are to code. Hey, David, feel how light this is.

53
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:02,120
Oh, what? Well, understandably, I mean, this is a very weight-focused design.

54
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,640
They wanted to keep it light, so they balanced it out.

55
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,360
Where there is something, though, is behind the seat.

56
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,360
We've got surround speakers. And then are these lights?

57
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:20,240
There is supposed to be RGB integrated into the chair. I think these are just white LEDs, though.

58
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,960
Is Hecatea brand of speaker you recognize? Nope.

59
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,720
This is sort of our last shot for a manual. You want instructions? What are you, weak?

60
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,040
Drop down and give me 20. No, I'm kidding, obviously.

61
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,720
I have $20 right here. Did you think you were done, maggot?

62
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,080
I don't know if the computer that I got for this is actually gonna fit back there.

63
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,440
That's a pretty acceptable size, but I did get us the biggest computer of all time.

64
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,240
Oh, that thing looks sick. Did we ever do a video about this? No.

65
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,680
We were going to, but things got away from us. Dang.

66
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,480
And I thought it was metal. It's plastic, which kind of is a downer.

67
00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,320
But the fact that it fooled me from, you know, more than five feet away means it looks pretty cool.

68
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:01,880
Try and lift it.

69
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,840
You call that lifting, maggot? Drop down and give me 20.

70
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:13,840
Sorry, sir. I'll do better next time. I'm all about creating a fair and equitable toxic workplace.

71
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,680
If everyone's getting abused equally, no one's getting abused. Now that everything's loaded off of it,

72
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,480
do you think we can get it off the pallet?

73
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,840
It's like the sound they make in old Navy films

74
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:29,000
when the boat's creaking. That's what it sounds like. It's happy.

75
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,680
Oh, there's wheels. Reese, you may want to take the back because you're taller.

76
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,720
Unless, David, you... Okay, ready? One, two, three, hop.

77
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,160
Oh! One's like, I slipped. Show me the other side.

78
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,360
Show me the back. Show me the front.

79
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:52,440
Those are good sounds. How the Sam Hill do they expect people to unbox

80
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,480
and unpack and set this thing up? Hey, Elijah, your new chair's here.

81
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,200
Remember how much you liked the last Cluvin's chair? How's your back feeling, buddy?

82
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,880
Still recovering. Okay, that's not, like, cut my Achilles tendon.

83
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:11,280
For those not in the know, Elijah won the privilege of using it for a month last time.

84
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:14,720
I think he lasted less than a week before he had to just give up.

85
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,600
Is your head abnormally large or is there no way to fit ahead in between those speakers?

86
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,280
But how's the back and the bum? Oh, man, this lumbar support sucks.

87
00:06:24,280 --> 00:06:28,640
At least it has some. Does it? I cannot tell. It is overall comfier.

88
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,560
Thanks, Elijah. Hey, it's on wheels now, though. Check this out. I did notice that when I sat down.

89
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,640
I mean, what good is, you know, an armored vehicle that doesn't move?

90
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,200
Oh, man. You okay? I'm just trying to figure out, like...

91
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,160
I feel like I'm already in the chair. So where do all these pieces go?

92
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,400
We found the online user manual. That's great news.

93
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,920
Can the chair be carried upstairs? The chair can be disassembled

94
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,960
by removing the armrest to reduce its weight and then carried upstairs.

95
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,800
The chair is large and heavy, but its dimensions are suitable for almost all elevators.

96
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:02,040
4,200 US dollars. Of course it was 48 with the guns.

97
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,320
What would you rather have? 75% of a 5090 or a...

98
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,400
Yeah, that's fair. To be fair, this is actually way cheaper

99
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,960
for this product category than I expected. M2HB machine gun operating.

100
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,640
That's a real... This is for an actual gun. Wait, we're supposed to get like bullets for this thing.

101
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,000
Oh yeah. Where are the decorative bullets? We found the guide.

102
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,120
It's video. That's why you weren't able to find it. I see.

103
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:28,200
And the timeline is gonna take to watch that video. We're just gonna friggin' install this crap ourselves.

104
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,720
This goes here. This goes there.

105
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:37,400
We're done. I found your answer, David. Yeah? 200 bullets of 50PMGR worth of it.

106
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:43,040
$1,000. So I must emphasize that I never provide ammunition.

107
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,920
So in his demo systems, that appears to be actual ammunition.

108
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:52,160
Live ammunition? That I don't know, but it's some sort of either replica or whatever.

109
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,040
He doesn't provide it. So I had to watch the video to find that out. I don't think that's on the website.

110
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,640
Remember when I said we had an instructional video? Yeah. We don't, it's marketing.

111
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,160
Oh. I can't find a step-by-step instructional video. Clubans, I'd really appreciate it

112
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,760
if you made a proper manual. So will the rest of your 27 customers.

113
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,000
They've apparently been doing this for 10 years. 10 years of this?

114
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,360
Yeah. It should be fair. It's pretty cool. It is cool.

115
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,440
It's just hard to imagine buying one. Some stuff's obvious.

116
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:22,960
Like this clearly goes in here, and then slides to the right. But I have no idea how I'm supposed to get under this thing

117
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:27,080
now and tighten those bolts. There's another threaded spot in the middle.

118
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,600
So you put that screw in, and then it kinda like is fine.

119
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,320
This thing's grown on me. Like a wart.

120
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,240
With just the weight of the monitor ARM, the whole thing's kinda twisting this way,

121
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,280
and it's freaking me out. So guys, I think I remember this from last time.

122
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,240
You gotta have both monitors on, and they kinda like balance each other out.

123
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,360
The bottom hole's really hard to get to. I can see my hole, but I can't fit it in.

124
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:57,560
I think the screws is too big. Maybe a little lube would make it fit. Okay, settle down.

125
00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:01,680
I'm actually gonna lose my patience with this hole though. Okay, big moment.

126
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:08,320
Uh, clearly not right. Well, I rotated it 90 more degrees, and now it's here.

127
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:13,280
So if this was here, actually that does make more sense.

128
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,720
Sorry, get down and do it again. Yes, sir!

129
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Whoa, are you okay? David needs some time in the crying room.

130
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,840
Ah! David, the screaming room is over there.

131
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,560
This is the crying room. Oh, oh wait, I got it through the first stage of the hole.

132
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:33,800
Boy, hey! Okay, she's on.

133
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,320
Mama. Just some pieces came off. Also, I figured out what that other hole is.

134
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,640
What's the other hole? I think it's like a set screw.

135
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,000
Okay, just gotta loosen it up a little.

136
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,760
This must be it. Yes, that feels so much more correct.

137
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:56,440
Okay, all right. Progress, in armrest storage?

138
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,120
Are you sure we're not supposed to put a human in there first then build around them?

139
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:05,200
It seems really hard to get in and out of this thing. Reese, if you wouldn't mind, can you kind of like

140
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,200
play around with the angle until this screw starts to go in for me?

141
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,560
Maybe shake it slower. Shake it less stupid.

142
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:17,600
Not even trying to pimp the screwdriver right now, but aligning these with the screwdriver was way easier.

143
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:22,560
You guys should just abandon the Allen key. Hold on, let me just tighten them and then you can have it.

144
00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:26,560
So anyone else notice there's a lot of little bolts that are just not tightened?

145
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:30,480
The good news is that we basically only have the guns in the monitors left.

146
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,360
Oh, really? Yeah. Okay, let's figure out the guns. I think this is a two man lift,

147
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,800
if we want to get it up there safely. Okay.

148
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,880
Beauty. This is not aligned at all.

149
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,540
Watch me. Oh.

150
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,760
Ah, yeah, you're right. And it's in. No, I think you're cross-sided. Should we put it on first?

151
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,560
I think we should put lube on it. Generally? Yeah, oh yeah. Okay.

152
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,160
I think the bigger issue is just that the angle's wrong. You can't even tell that it's not screwed in.

153
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,880
I think someone will tell when it falls on their head. And in it goes.

154
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:06,040
Oh, and all the lube farted out. What a stupid problem.

155
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,200
My 50 cal won't mount to my gaming chair.

156
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:14,120
We just need to get it perfectly aligned. Holy crap, I think we're gonna get it.

157
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,280
Nice. This is never coming apart again.

158
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,680
All right. For all the pain that it was to get it set up,

159
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:24,240
it looks pretty cool. Yeah. Look at that.

160
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,160
First ride. Cash money, boys. So it was a skill issue on the other side then.

161
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,280
No, no, it wasn't. The other side was really poorly aligned. Oh, it's way cooler with two.

162
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,360
Look at it from the front. Stand right there. Yeah, stand right there.

163
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,800
Stand right there. Yeah, stand right there. Very funny, you guys. It looks kind of dangerous, you know?

164
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,080
Am I the only one who feels like this level of engineering

165
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,920
for the slide was not necessary for a prop gun?

166
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,480
Reload action's pretty freaking sweet. We keep telling them, why did you do it this way?

167
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,480
And then we keep being like, oh man, this is cool. This is pretty cool.

168
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,080
I can't put the back on.

169
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,880
This needs a manual. We may want to email them at this point.

170
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,280
Hey, you solved it. What did I miss? You just have to make sure all the parts are where they belong,

171
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:13,960
including the piece that we had trouble with belongs over here, outside of the guns.

172
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,120
And you put the monitors on too. Oh, this is like gaming ready now.

173
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:22,000
I'm actually so excited for you to get in there. Although, it goes at an angle when you pull it out.

174
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,160
That's not actually great for keeping stuff on here. But you got guns above your head.

175
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,720
Dude, it looks so sick. And I mean, things don't have to not fall down

176
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:36,040
if we just store them inside. These ammo boxes also double as snack faces.

177
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,960
Oh, sick. Wait, did you not see the mouse pad that it came with? Do you like the way that they're perfectly sized

178
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,960
for the metal that they go on top of?

179
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,400
They're not. This is very not flat. Does it slide this way?

180
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,000
It slides this way. It should really go this way and this way a little bit.

181
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,880
This is one of your controllers.

182
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,320
Be careful. You can do a combination of movements that will chop your freaking hand off.

183
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,520
I got real close. How do I stop it?

184
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,680
Usually when you press it again. How do I stop it? Usually when I press it again.

185
00:13:07,680 --> 00:13:10,880
David! David, how do I stop it?

186
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,080
When I press it again. It's encroaching.

187
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,240
It'll stop on its own. Wait, where is it even moving?

188
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,360
It's just moving along the gun barrel.

189
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:26,840
You can see the lube marks where it is originally. One thing I can see right now is these lights here.

190
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,440
These are not great. You thankfully can turn them off

191
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,520
with the button that you have on the armrest. They've got to be like this. This has got to be what they're for,

192
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,120
but they just are their ass. Button three.

193
00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:45,280
Okay, that's pretty cool. It's really cool. This is crazy.

194
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,120
Can you... That's the flip side.

195
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:54,320
There's definitely some creaks and crunches that I really don't like at the end of the movement ranges.

196
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,920
Also, do you remember how we had trouble putting in that left barrel? Cause it like wasn't quite aligned.

197
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,280
I can tell the whole thing is this way a bit.

198
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:07,120
And so because of the monitors, the whole thing is this way a bit.

199
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,560
Four, I assume is the opposite of that. Can I stop it?

200
00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:13,080
Yes, I can. Yeah, with this one it interrupts. Five.

201
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:20,080
I'm going up. Am I going to crash into the keyboard? So far the answer is yes.

202
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,360
Yes, I will. Contrary to how this might look, I'm not excited about what just happened.

203
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,680
Okay, seven. I understand why it can't move faster,

204
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,840
but I wish it did. It would be really nice if it had presets.

205
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,720
Nine. One thing of note is that you can actually upgrade to a voice control package.

206
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,400
That just seems so absurd, you know, in a really grounded product.

207
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,080
It's definitely cool. Locked in.

208
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:48,720
The position of the mouse pad is terrible. I feel like these arms might be nice

209
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,800
if they came with your angle a little bit. I understand why they don't because there's a mouse on there.

210
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,400
Is there anywhere to really rest your arms while you're gaming? You can kind of put your elbow here

211
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:02,760
and like kind of here. It's not optimal.

212
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:07,200
I mean, I would probably put my keyboard over there because I don't like having my keyboard in the center.

213
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,200
It would also have been nice if there was a way to change the tilt of the monitors.

214
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:15,640
Yeah, there's really not any control with how you can mount these monitors.

215
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,000
Basically, eight screw holes and a screw through them.

216
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,880
Hopefully it works. Windows is insane, dude. So I'm in game, okay, whatever.

217
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:29,040
I go out of game. So my start menu is popping up here over top of nothing.

218
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,840
I want to change the volume. So I click that over here and it pops up over.

219
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,480
Like, I don't know if this is NVIDIA drivers or if this is Microsoft.

220
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,000
To be fair, this is probably a NVIDIA surround issue.

221
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,480
We use NVIDIA surround so that it shows up as one giant monitor to Windows.

222
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,920
Shame on both of them. Okay, speakers, real tech audio. Yeah, I'm not hearing anything through these speakers.

223
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:54,600
Am I, oh. Okay, they work.

224
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,160
My head hits them when I, there's like nowhere to fit my head

225
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,880
when I don't have the headrest down. Oh man, there's like a-

226
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,280
A metal bar that holds everything together. Oh man.

227
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,220
Do you want the headrest back? Yeah, sure.

228
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,200
Oh, it's worse. It's like knocks my head off.

229
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,680
But you got that from lttstore.com. I know.

230
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,280
Aw. There's LTT on it. I want it to knock it off.

231
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,640
How is it so bad? It's unfathomably bad.

232
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,080
You just slip off of it. Somehow being-

233
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,260
If I pull it out more. On it is worse than slipping off of it.

234
00:16:38,260 --> 00:16:43,280
Which is somehow worse than not having it. Which is somehow worse than being on it.

235
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,920
It's, whoa.

236
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:52,640
I don't think I've ever seen it do this. What are the specs of this machine anyway? This is the latest Alienware Area 51.

237
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,000
It's equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 285K,

238
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,580
as well as a 5090. It is a pretty dang top tier system.

239
00:16:59,580 --> 00:17:03,440
So under normal circumstances, this thing absolutely rips.

240
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,280
At 11K resolution, nothing does.

241
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,160
This is a pretty top end price.

242
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,440
And it's gone. Okay, I'm just gonna fire up the NVIDIA app and see if there's maybe a dry wrap.

243
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,120
That's possible. Yeah.

244
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:25,520
They're not as bad as I expected. But that's the nicest thing that I can say about them.

245
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,520
I expected them to be really, really, really bad.

246
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,080
Dude, I blame Microsoft. Did you see that? Looking for network?

247
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,800
Looking for salute? What are you talking about? Just go get into Windows.

248
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,960
Buddy, what is this? Your device ran into a problem and couldn't be repaired.

249
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:44,880
Are you friggin' kidding me? This was working like two seconds before I sat down.

250
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,000
Now, honestly, you have a gift. I think they call it a curse.

251
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,040
I've noticed while I've been sitting here doing nothing while David's been troubleshooting out there

252
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,520
that my butt's starting to get pretty sweaty.

253
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,080
I think they should have a gun-shaped fan pointed right at the rear end.

254
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,340
That's a wild thing to ask for. We are so back.

255
00:18:06,340 --> 00:18:09,720
All right, so now having learned nothing, I'm going to re-enable Surround

256
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,880
and launch the game again. Are you serious right now? Full screen, come on.

257
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,880
No. Oh. Yeah, buddy. It's way better than the last one,

258
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,760
but my back is starting to get a little sore. Okay, would you trade the guns for a massage functionality?

259
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,440
I don't need a massage functionality. I just need, like, ergo adjustments for the chair.

260
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,520
So maybe Cyberpunk just... What? Did you see that?

261
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,880
Maybe Cyberpunk doesn't like Surround. Like I said, I had Forza Horizon 5 working,

262
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,840
so I say we go into a game that I know works. Well, this is a good sign.

263
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,320
NVIDIA Surround and AMD iFINITY have become such niche use cases at this point

264
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:48,680
that it never surprises me when things don't work properly, but I feel really bad for the folks that rely on it to work.

265
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:55,400
It's so frustrating to buy into something and have it kind of work for, like, 15 years, you know?

266
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,880
Yeah, why won't my Crossfire graphics cards work anymore in AMD? Come on.

267
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:03,000
Oh, no, but I think this is different than I thought.

268
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:09,480
It's a technology that we've been sold for so long and has just never really worked great for just as long.

269
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,600
It, um, occurs to me as I'm jumping headfirst

270
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:17,560
into a racing game that there is absolutely no way

271
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,720
to mount, like, a stick shift or a wheel

272
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,720
or anything to this. No, you could kind of Jerry-rig something,

273
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,120
but it would not be a good solution. I'd actually be more likely to buy something like this

274
00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:31,920
if it was optimized as a Flight Sim setup or a Racing Sim setup,

275
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:36,960
not as a general purpose gaming cockpit. This is pretty freaking insane, though.

276
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:41,120
And, like, if there was another car that was bothering me, I could just be like,

277
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:45,600
light them up, boys! That's the Forza Horizon expansion I want.

278
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,760
Forza X World of Tanks. Do you feel immersed?

279
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,640
I do feel immersed. I wish that the angle was a little better,

280
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,960
but, hey, at least these Dell monitors have a pretty solid viewing angle,

281
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,200
so it's not bothering me that much. Are these cutie OLED?

282
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,320
Yes. Waiting behind traffic like a sucker.

283
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:06,040
Oh, God! Stout little man.

284
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,680
It's like Farquaad in a suit of armor. Apply.

285
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,200
The heck? I don't think I've ever seen a game give up faster than that.

286
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,040
Doom Black screens the second I launched it. Trying red dead redemption now.

287
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:23,000
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on! I see a loading bar.

288
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:23,840
Oh, here we go.

289
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:33,920
Like, this video is transformed from the Cluven's chair to the David and Linus try and fail

290
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,160
to make NVIDIA surround work. I feel like the wow guy from South Park right now.

291
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:42,480
We are getting painfully close to Wally, though. Just need wheels on this thing.

292
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:47,360
It has wheels. I'm not gonna try to move it this time. I'm gonna let it just, I'm gonna give it a sec.

293
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,120
Looking so weird indie game. Oh, hey, oh!

294
00:20:52,120 --> 00:20:56,280
You know what? Giving it a sec does legitimately seem to help a little bit.

295
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,760
To be clear, this game may not support surround at all.

296
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,320
Like, you know, clearly. But you look at the way this house just like,

297
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,440
is sometimes a wire, or is sometimes just framed

298
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,440
and sometimes is a complete house. Do you see this?

299
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:14,160
The thing I like is how it has like that 3D effect for social media where there's black bars

300
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,960
and then the things pop out of the black bars. I'm building the fence, I'm playing Fortnite, bro.

301
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:24,440
We're gonna turn it down to like medium settings. How about we drop the resolution down?

302
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:30,040
I'm beginning to think this may be an edge case that is specific to our exact hardware and software

303
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:35,240
right now because I just can't imagine that this is this broken under normal circumstances.

304
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,040
I'm not willing to draw any conclusion other than that.

305
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:43,360
This didn't work for us today. And frankly, it doesn't affect the conclusion

306
00:21:43,360 --> 00:21:49,240
of this video anyway. This is a super weird chair with a very niche use case.

307
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,400
You have to be someone who doesn't want any sim equipment,

308
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,640
just wants a keyboard and mouse, but doesn't want them to be easily reachable

309
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,760
and wants your chair to look like a gun. But how will this chair do when it's being daily driven?

310
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:04,480
We're gonna find out by having Sammy sit in it every single day instead of his regular desk.

311
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,000
You should check it out, LMG.gg slash flow plane.

312
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,640
If that's you, boy, do I ever have the product for you.

313
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,400
And if it's not you, you'll probably be better off with something else.

314
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,360
Like this message from our sponsor. If you guys enjoyed this video,

315
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:25,200
why not check out the last time we looked at a Cleveland's chair? Had more of a scorpion vibe, you know, like get over here.
