1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:08,080
if you watched our recent review of dell's ultra short throw laser projector

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:10,719
the s718 ql known affectionately around

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:16,880
the office as kylo ren then you already know that it's a badass 4k HDR projector

4
00:00:14,559 --> 00:00:20,320
with insane brightness that works just about anywhere

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:24,320
but what you didn't know is that we actually have not one

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:31,599
not even two but three kylo ren's and today we're

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,320
gonna do something big with them

8
00:00:31,599 --> 00:00:37,369
something big and wide

9
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:46,719
okay so first thing we need aside from projectors is a rig powerful enough to

10
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:54,719
run three 4k displays in games at once so

11
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:57,840
what we're using is three quadro p5000

12
00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:59,920
gpus then we needed a platform that

13
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:05,439
could not only support all three of these quadros but that would also have

14
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:09,280
space for an additional expansion card

15
00:01:05,439 --> 00:01:13,119
so we're using an x99 ews from ASUS a

16
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,360
core i7 6900k eight core processor with

17
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:21,680
a hundred and twenty eight gigs of g skill tridency RGB RAM because

18
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,680
why not and then because our goal isn't

19
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:30,159
to display the same image from three projectors no no we want to make one big

20
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:33,200
image we need an NVIDIA sync 2 expansion

21
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:35,200
card this is the same one from our 16k

22
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:38,240
gaming build which you can check out right over there

23
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:43,280
powering the whole thing we've got a platymax df platinum 1200 watt power

24
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:47,920
supply with sleeve cables right out of the box we've got an equal lens tempered

25
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,200
glass case although the glass is off right now so i can point at all this

26
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:56,320
stuff with high density soundproofing insulation in the front top and side

27
00:01:53,680 --> 00:02:02,240
we're using a lick max 2 240 millimeter aio cooler that can handle up to a 350

28
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:07,200
watt processor and we're using lipa chopper advanced led fans all courtesy

29
00:02:05,119 --> 00:02:11,039
of enermax who get a big shout out for sponsoring this video

30
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:16,480
so then we've got three projectors

31
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:20,160
we've got a pc to power them now's the big reveal

32
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:26,400
we are going on a little field trip outside where

33
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:29,920
we're going to be creating one gigantic

34
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:32,160
image on the side of our neighbor's

35
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:37,280
building hey i think i solved the network problem

36
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:41,920
uh we had a network cable running over to the laser cutter uh so i threw a

37
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:47,280
switch here i think for i think we're actually pretty close to the 100 meter

38
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:51,360
limit though for Ethernet on that subject

39
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:56,160
i think we've got every extension cord in the entire building

40
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,959
daisy chained together we got enough power out here because we're running

41
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:03,760
three 5 000 lumen projectors projectors it's

42
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:07,519
cold sorry projectors so yeah they're laser they're efficient

43
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:12,560
but still so there are a number of challenges that

44
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:17,599
we have to address before we're going to be able to game on this

45
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:20,480
number one is that all these projectors

46
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:27,120
need to be level off the ground so the innovative strategy that we've come up

47
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:29,519
with is a combination of these rocks

48
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,519
these rubber papers and then we got some printer paper to

49
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:39,680
kind of do the fine adjustments at the end problem number two that we have to solve

50
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,760
is that they all have to be exactly the same distance

51
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:47,760
away from the wall although what's cool is that they don't have to be the same

52
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:53,120
distance away from each other because the quadro sync card in our

53
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:58,879
configuration here allows us to fine tune NVIDIA's mosaic settings on a pixel

54
00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:03,120
by pixel basis so that we can get them to butt up right against each other

55
00:04:01,439 --> 00:04:06,239
problem number three is that each one of them has to be

56
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:11,760
keystone because we can make all the pixel by pixel

57
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:15,360
adjustments in the world that we want but ultimately

58
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:19,199
if you have some overlap at the top and a gap at the bottom the mouse movements

59
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:22,479
are going to be really unnatural problem number four

60
00:04:20,639 --> 00:04:25,680
is that our office is right next to a train

61
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:29,840
obviously we couldn't do this inside because we wanted to project you know

62
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:34,639
like a freaking 80 inch diagonal screen that's been 80

63
00:04:32,479 --> 00:04:38,400
foot 80 foot sorry imperial is not my strong point

64
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:42,560
okay i'm not quite sure how you intended these runs james one for beanbag maybe

65
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:48,080
one for beanbag do you want me to help you um help make a spot in it for you

66
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:48,080
okay

67
00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:57,440
okay come on over here okay hold on let me put at least two or

68
00:04:54,840 --> 00:05:03,120
three is it that heavy yeah it's pretty heavy oh okay okay so

69
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:06,240
we've got them good enough because we're not gonna stay

70
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:10,479
out here all night um now it's time to make some fine

71
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:15,440
adjustments so with monitors you use bezel correction to make it so that when

72
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:20,000
something passes over a bezel you don't end up with it misaligned like this

73
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:24,479
but now we want overlap i feel like i'm giving a presentation or something so

74
00:05:22,479 --> 00:05:29,520
now we're just going to you know click the mouse over there you know it took a

75
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:32,800
lot of tweaking but once we got it working

76
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:41,120
it was absolutely freaking

77
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:41,120
sick like james you are actually

78
00:05:41,199 --> 00:05:48,160
like 40 feet from the start menu right

79
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,160
here here you go bud guide me in

80
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,479
you're trying to try to get

81
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:04,400
one of the things we learned is that just because it's awesome

82
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,479
doesn't mean that it is actually usable

83
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:12,000
no there now there's trees in the way yeah we did not think this through

84
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:17,280
clearly some games operate better in 48 by nine aspect ratio than others do oh

85
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:22,160
then your weapons you lost like a couple hp on the jump oh look at the ammo i

86
00:06:19,039 --> 00:06:22,160
have how much do i have

87
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:28,000
yeah that's quality is this resolution

88
00:06:25,919 --> 00:06:31,520
maybe i don't know what any of these are can you see something that looks like

89
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:37,199
system so it turns out that just because you're using three 2500 graphics cards

90
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:41,600
that doesn't mean that you can actually game at 60fps

91
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:46,319
three times 4k is a lot of pixels you know how gta

92
00:06:44,319 --> 00:06:51,120
tells you how much video memory you're gonna need for the settings you pick

93
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:56,720
it wanted 14 gigs so thanks for watching guys a huge shout

94
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,240
out to dell and enter max for allowing

95
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:02,880
us to uh come out here in the middle of the night

96
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:08,880
in the cold and have an utterly unique if not particularly um

97
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:12,479
advantageous gaming experience if you guys dislike this video you can hit that
