You sit like a Female to Male Transgender.

[@panch0labase694]

and 3Mb/s connection

[@Scalier7451]

MAN, this is my type of setup. Amazing work with the cables and i love the idea of the server box. Keep up the great work

[@RANDAMULOL]

tbh its actually pretty impressive and cool (but its a lil too many things for me LOL, i am a lil bit minimalist, not a lot like others though)

[@Yt-final-boss]

Same

[@HiteshBhagatGameTech]

Loved your setup mate, absolutely perfect, you have really given me a good idea as to how to fit pc and server rack in my room, been planning to run something like this for ages.

[@redbelliedgaming]

That is an absolute beast of a setup

[@ifrozr]

That's such a cool setup, congrats! I'd probably get some cable extensions for the main gaming PC as it is completely visible, and with all the RGB, it would only do it some justice to get those. Otherwise, it's really nice imo. You could also personalize it a bit more. Like some posters, wall decor, shelves, figurines, or anything you're interested in.

[@TinyMaths]

Love the look of that server rack; has a kind of sci-fi vibe to it. Definitely appeals to the 'neat freak' in me.

[@tripp-hq]

You should enter in Tech Source setup wars man. You've got a great setup that needs to be recognized!

[@tommyinnit8239]

[@LZ_Protogen]

man we have the same keyboard! ive had this for 2-3 years now and it's never failed me, absolutely love using it

[@bigjimstream]

Super cool! Lots of awesome tech and the server cabinet is a nice touch. Might be time to add a decent camera to the mix!

[@seza9240]

The server rack is a great idea that I never would of thought of. Setup looks great.

[@pixluxxbuiltthewave]

server racks are seriously underated because it just fit well, things in the rack are secured its like a life saver

[@scarecrow-rf6wm]

I just love this setup so much. I think this is the best setup in 2023 so far! The server box is awesome! Thanks this video bro.

[@bubblegumgun3292]

2:25 thats so cool , im totally digging your monitor set up

[@DankyMankey]

amazing that your sever also houses your gaming consoles with a little bit of RGB lighting.

[@m4nc1n1]

Love the rack! I, too, have a rack in the basement with network equipment (Unifi DMP, three Unifi 10G switches, two servers, and the 1821+ fully loaded with 14TB drives). NAS and Rigs all have 10G cards in them as well.

[@mrshadowgaming1719]

Tech source has a worthy competitor for best gaming setup

[@markmckeown87]

That AR overlay on the switch is INSANE

[@fancyhandlegoeshere]

I'm extremely curious about your dual streaming PC setup and how you have everything configured. If you are ever wondering if anyone would like to see an uber-detailed video on your setup, you have at least one person who would!

[@ChrisProAU]

Ooh I've been considering that, it's a bit complex. I use NDI for Video between PC's and do audio over standard cables.

[@jingobango7313]

@@ChrisProAU How do you control your streaming PC? Like the most setups have a second mouse and keyboard.

[@ChrisProAU]

I use Input Director or VNC as a backup. I show it off a bit better in my previous setup tours.

[@thechalatorgamer798]

Dude, that is a nicely done setup. Especially you keep the Cable clean. Whoa

[@thejourneyoffaith8116]

That rack is such a smart idea im gonna steal that for my future setup!

[@ddssrr1614]

Store Person: Do you need RGB ?. Chris: Yes all the RGB.

[@Doge1221]

For some reason my dumbass thought that rgb shelf was a pc when I first saw the thumbnail

[@DiePflegeexpertin]

Wow this is soooo beautiful - i love it. Great Work and please keep going!

[@louisevalentine44]

give this man a trophy , nothing else is more impressive than the cable management clean AF!

[@ideskdesign]

This was such a good watch, your office has always been such an incredible blend of good tech and inspiring design but this version is my favourite so far! Also, smashed it on the visuals - going to binge watch the rest of your videos now 👀

[@Vagabondo-fs6qu]

Quite the amazing set up. What would be great is to see a wiring diagram of what is connected where.

[@temskee6792]

bro got his own cloud

[@Sub0x-x40]

fuck yeh i want to emulate this

[@vizkiz.4431]

I like this idea of keeping tech and other spare or useful stuff in a server rack. But just think of the *power bill* .

[@classzedits]

while watching this, i kept on saying "wow". i love how you arranged the big monitors, and 2 smaller ones. i also have 2 equal sized big monitors, and 2 small ones but i don't know how to position them. this is the best setup to imitate with my 4 monitors of different sizes.

[@itsproyo]

Might be a stupid suggestion, but for the pc case against the wall, you could potentially flip it upside down to have the glass facing inward - just reverse the fan directions to accommodate your push/pull preference. Just a thought.

[@mychellemalheiros5014]

Awesome!!! Congratulations.

[@sofakingdom3076]

I have the same headphones. Definitely worth every penny and their comfortable.

[@Uro_Boros]

where are you from?

[@blameflex]

Dope setup. Would you mind sharing where you got that server rack or what the name of it is? Thanks ! 🙏

[@ChrisProAU]

Yep, it's just a cheap 22RU rack. Believe this is the specific one I bought, might be under a different store if your outside Australia. dataworld.com.au/product/22ru-1000mm-deep-x-600mm-wide-rack-cabinet/

[@intothebeyond8763]

It's absolutely overkill but that's why I love it .

[@REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5]

I love the look of that Desk i have a Custom home made Desk right now but want to upgrade to something this good

[@jelous87]

Everything looks amazing. I am curious, do you not have to worry about any airflow or heat build up in your server case?

[@d3miiig0d44]

It’s a server case…..

[@ryanu3708]

Nice work! I was hoping you would discuss that chair. Finding a comfortable chair for marathon gaming sessions is a toughie in my world. I have a house full of those things lol.

That server setup is pretty nice, that is something I'm looking to incorporate into my office :D I'm definitely taking notes!

[@rodneydangerfield7153]

Thanks, ChrisPro, for posting the best gaming desktop set-up video on KZbin!...QUESTION:How did you decide on whether to purchase a two-leg or four-leg sit/stand desk with three monitors and two PC's?...Forgot to mention the beautiful server box to house consoles and UPS's! (If possible, please provide spec's of PC and server box).

[@ChrisProAU]

I had been wanting a standing desk for a while but could never find one big enough for my needs, I wanted the PC's off the ground as I had issues with extending cables to my machine on the floor. I saw the review of this desk on LTT I think and as soon as they showed off the PC mounts I knew this was what I wanted.

[@ChangeDisplayName658]

What are those PC mounts you use (including all 4 monitors)

[@zeeplays_yt5527]

Nice set up! Pro tip: When I go to your Twitch and I click your "set up" link, It takes me to your 2021 set up. You could update that link and link this video in it instead.

[@raphaky]

Congratulations dude!

[@kingzoe16]

Definitely inspired me to get a setup similar to this

[@joeglennaz]

I’m not a gamer but that is cool. I really like the server rack. The only thing I’m interested in this may be getting a PC for Microsoft flight Sim. I’m a pilot and haven’t played flight simulator since the 90s. I have a really old HP, all-in-one PC other than that I use Mac I have a new M1 MacBook Pro. So I definitely need to upgrade my PC if I want to play flight sim

good setup! i have the same desk coming cuz i had to pre order. and im upgrading my second pc. good to see some ideas

[@Dr.Kryptanical]

I'm getting the ROG Strix 4070ti OC Edition after the 3rd which man... time flies that's literally next monday... I've been saving up since last year gonna borrow like £30 from my stepdad as i'll be just short of the price... then I am getting a cpu cooler for my 5600x so it doesn't overheat in summer, I know the GPU is like really OP and I've calculated a 13% bottleneck from the other components but my PSU is more than enough it's a 1000W I plan to get the Helios case after so that should take till the 17th of august or late august then I start saving for next year I intend to get a 7700X and an AM5 x670 gaming wifi ROG Strix board and some ROG Strix ram it's gonna be an NVIDEA/ASUS/AMD build but most parts will be rog strix then i'm gonna use my A520m-k Prime, RX580 2048sp and 5600X for a streaming pc and older games! also my friend got into the test for Windows 12 he claims it's still technically in a Windows 11 state but it's apparently gonna be slowly patched into 12 and he said they plan to release it september next year! if it's true (he's not always truthful so take it with a pinch of salt) then if it's better than 11 I may upgrade, he also says they'll be working on a fix for the multiple desktop freeze issue which i get pretty regular when streaming! but glad I waited and decided to get a 4070Ti OC instead of a 3070Ti OC back in january whats more I'm getting the Redfall bite back edition free so that's gonna be something to try I was a streamer but i'm switching youtube on my alt channel as my primary focus since my twitch vods seem to get more views than my livestreams(rough sleeping pattern and schedule) I'm a big ROG fan and always wanted but i'm poor enough that always seemed to be never possible but I decided i'd forgo the good things in life for now so that I can have better hardware to improve the quality of my videos and kinda prove that a decent top end enthusiast build is possible for someone like me with a low budget (I halved my food and drink money to get this gpu as it's the most expensive component and would of took a long time) if you have the patience and family member willing to help, I helped my stepdad go from 14 year old pc that kept breaking down on windows 7 to a windows 11 pc with a 5600X & an EVGA 2060 SC a520m-k mb even bought him some fans for it and when he messed up and bought a Philips 27" 1080p workstation monitor because he didn't listen to me (he used to be tech savvy back in the 2000s he taught me the basics of pc as a kid but he lost his way got out of touch with the tech world and has only been recconecting through me more recently! I bought it off him and gave him the extra money to get a KOORUI 27 Inch QHD Gaming Monitor (144 Hz, 1ms, DCI-P3 90% Color Gamut, FreeSync, Ultra Slim Frame, VESA Mountable (2560x1440, HDMI, DisplayPort) Black) for £178 total! So he's been thankful it's allowed him to play modern games he's always wanted to play but never had the money and saved him money on the build fee because we bought the components and I built it for him, it's not without it's issue I made a mistake on the case and cpu but it turned out for the better if I hadn't messed up on got the 5600X instead of the the 5600G he wouldn't of got the 2060 and been able to play games like metro exodus at 2k at a decently high framerate! Which is why he wants to help me build my dream pc he can see my vision and it is an investment it's not just a gaming rig this could allow me to make 4k quality gaming content and stream and edit much faster than I currently can... we're the kind of people that love our pc's the same way drivers love their cars... so, so to speak it's understandable he'd want his stepson have a good high quality computer equivalent of a car, so he's doing his best to help me where he can even though at times money can get tight cause he knows if I do well with my goals theres gonna be a return i'm gonna make sure my family wants for nothing! My setup isn't nearly as clean as yours yet but it's the dream once my alt channel takes off (not gonna say the name of it because advertising in someone elses chat is a nono in the community) I want to have a clean look to my room with the rgb's so I'll be getting one of those white ikea cubed wardrobes for my clothes and clean the room more I intend to make space so I can get vr in the future i'm considering building one of those custom build open source full body vr suits to be a foot in the door into learning engineering (also your feet don't have to touch the ground like Kat VR so it makes less noise don't wanna tick off my neighbours, I am also considering the beyond headset which will be my next big major purchase but it will probably be 2025 by the time i'm done building this pc fully so it's gonna while before I join the world of vr! Unless my gaming channel, or my tech review channel really becomes successful! I do have one question @ChisPro did you have trouble with the cables against the glass i'm worried cause while the 4070 is smaller than the 4080 it's still quite large and I'm worried about bending the atx connectors in my current case the MSI Ryzen 011c Vampiric!

[@whiskeysk]

very neat, I wish I had the space for a rack like that.

[@Rouladen1]

Where are your rack from?

[@dallascferguson]

This is insane!!!

[@JordanDoPlay_Mc]

Cool setup. Kinda hard to understand the meaning of having 2 computers but I guess using one for gaming and one specifically for work related things only makes sense to keep everything separate and organized. Edit: The Idiots in the comments, I NEVER SAID IT WAS A BAD THING TO HAVE TWO COMPUTERS! Just wanted to know why and there is no harm in knowing why.

[@ChrisProAU]

Ah the 2nd one is for streaming and recording, it runs OBS and NOALBS for mobile streaming and it also runs my Minecraft Server and a VM with NGINX Proxy Manager for my websites. It's on 24/7 and also handles things like NVIDIA Broadcast for my webcam, sometimes I use it for games as a second camera/account or for AFK farming. Most of the time it will just be displaying the security cameras for my house with all the other stuff running in the background I don't really use it for work, aside from taking notes or looking something up real quick when I'm using my other monitors.

[@shathaan1763]

Have you heard of streaming?

[@JordanDoPlay_Mc]

@@shathaan1763 have you heard of replying to other comments? Read the damn comment before you get sassy kid.

[@JordanDoPlay_Mc]

@@shathaan1763 you also don’t need 2 computers to stream. Some people use 2 computers because they run servers that require a strong source. Don’t be an idiot saying you have to have 2 computers for streaming. He already mentioned that in the video and the reply. Start reading your comments better.
