00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:08.080
if you watched our recent review of dell's ultra short throw laser projector

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:10.719
the s718 ql known affectionately around

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

00:00:14.559 --> 00:00:20.320
with insane brightness that works just about anywhere

00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:24.320
but what you didn't know is that we actually have not one

00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:31.599
not even two but three kylo ren's and today we're

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:34.320
gonna do something big with them

00:00:31.599 --> 00:00:37.369
something big and wide

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:46.719
okay so first thing we need aside from projectors is a rig powerful enough to

00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:54.719
run three 4k displays in games at once so

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:57.840
what we're using is three quadro p5000

00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:59.920
gpus then we needed a platform that

00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:05.439
could not only support all three of these quadros but that would also have

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:09.280
space for an additional expansion card

00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:13.119
so we're using an x99 ews from ASUS a

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:15.360
core i7 6900k eight core processor with

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:21.680
a hundred and twenty eight gigs of g skill tridency RGB RAM because

00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:23.680
why not and then because our goal isn't

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:30.159
to display the same image from three projectors no no we want to make one big

00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:33.200
image we need an NVIDIA sync 2 expansion

00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:35.200
card this is the same one from our 16k

00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:38.240
gaming build which you can check out right over there

00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:43.280
powering the whole thing we've got a platymax df platinum 1200 watt power

00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:47.920
supply with sleeve cables right out of the box we've got an equal lens tempered

00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:51.200
glass case although the glass is off right now so i can point at all this

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:56.320
stuff with high density soundproofing insulation in the front top and side

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

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:07.200
watt processor and we're using lipa chopper advanced led fans all courtesy

00:02:05.119 --> 00:02:11.039
of enermax who get a big shout out for sponsoring this video

00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:16.480
so then we've got three projectors

00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:20.160
we've got a pc to power them now's the big reveal

00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:26.400
we are going on a little field trip outside where

00:02:23.040 --> 00:02:29.920
we're going to be creating one gigantic

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:32.160
image on the side of our neighbor's

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:37.280
building hey i think i solved the network problem

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

00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:47.280
switch here i think for i think we're actually pretty close to the 100 meter

00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:51.360
limit though for Ethernet on that subject

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:56.160
i think we've got every extension cord in the entire building

00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:58.959
daisy chained together we got enough power out here because we're running

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:03.760
three 5 000 lumen projectors projectors it's

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:07.519
cold sorry projectors so yeah they're laser they're efficient

00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:12.560
but still so there are a number of challenges that

00:03:10.720 --> 00:03:17.599
we have to address before we're going to be able to game on this

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.480
number one is that all these projectors

00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:27.120
need to be level off the ground so the innovative strategy that we've come up

00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:29.519
with is a combination of these rocks

00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:33.519
these rubber papers and then we got some printer paper to

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

00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:43.760
is that they all have to be exactly the same distance

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

00:03:45.440 --> 00:03:53.120
distance away from each other because the quadro sync card in our

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:58.879
configuration here allows us to fine tune NVIDIA's mosaic settings on a pixel

00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.120
by pixel basis so that we can get them to butt up right against each other

00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:06.239
problem number three is that each one of them has to be

00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:11.760
keystone because we can make all the pixel by pixel

00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:15.360
adjustments in the world that we want but ultimately

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

00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:22.479
are going to be really unnatural problem number four

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.680
is that our office is right next to a train

00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:29.840
obviously we couldn't do this inside because we wanted to project you know

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:34.639
like a freaking 80 inch diagonal screen that's been 80

00:04:32.479 --> 00:04:38.400
foot 80 foot sorry imperial is not my strong point

00:04:36.320 --> 00:04:42.560
okay i'm not quite sure how you intended these runs james one for beanbag maybe

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

00:04:45.840 --> 00:04:48.080
okay

00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:57.440
okay come on over here okay hold on let me put at least two or

00:04:54.840 --> 00:05:03.120
three is it that heavy yeah it's pretty heavy oh okay okay so

00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:06.240
we've got them good enough because we're not gonna stay

00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:10.479
out here all night um now it's time to make some fine

00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:15.440
adjustments so with monitors you use bezel correction to make it so that when

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:20.000
something passes over a bezel you don't end up with it misaligned like this

00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:24.479
but now we want overlap i feel like i'm giving a presentation or something so

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

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:32.800
lot of tweaking but once we got it working

00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:41.120
it was absolutely freaking

00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:41.120
sick like james you are actually

00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:48.160
like 40 feet from the start menu right

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:48.160
here here you go bud guide me in

00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:53.479
you're trying to try to get

00:05:57.280 --> 00:06:04.400
one of the things we learned is that just because it's awesome

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:06.479
doesn't mean that it is actually usable

00:06:04.400 --> 00:06:12.000
no there now there's trees in the way yeah we did not think this through

00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:17.280
clearly some games operate better in 48 by nine aspect ratio than others do oh

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

00:06:19.039 --> 00:06:22.160
have how much do i have

00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:28.000
yeah that's quality is this resolution

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

00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:37.199
system so it turns out that just because you're using three 2500 graphics cards

00:06:35.440 --> 00:06:41.600
that doesn't mean that you can actually game at 60fps

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:46.319
three times 4k is a lot of pixels you know how gta

00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:51.120
tells you how much video memory you're gonna need for the settings you pick

00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:56.720
it wanted 14 gigs so thanks for watching guys a huge shout

00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:58.240
out to dell and enter max for allowing

00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:02.880
us to uh come out here in the middle of the night

00:07:00.080 --> 00:07:08.880
in the cold and have an utterly unique if not particularly um

00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:12.479
