dope setup!

[@user-su2rg4wx4w]

Maybe a NAS would be the solution for your storage problem?

[@user-dq7gv5zt6f]

Really cool setup!! Can I ask where did you get the wall shelf which you used to put your TIE fighter on?

[@SideofTech]

Thank you! This is from Grovemade 🙂

[@Miguel_Pratz]

Beautiful set up! Are you running a KVM switch to go back and forth between your mac and PC? I am running into issues with my PC recognizing my mic/audio interface through the KVM :(

[@SideofTech]

Thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed! I’m am not running a switch, it’s just the monitor that I have hooked up to the inputs in the back. My ps5 is through HDMI, PC is through DisplayPort, and my Mac is through thunderbolt. I like the idea of KVM switches but in my opinion, things just work better with a monitor that can do it all 🤗

[@paco5star]

Nice set up man, curious as to what is that little thing on your desk that says your KZbinr subscribers and other stuff ?

[@SideofTech]

It’s from LaMetric 😄

[@chencg179]

Love these dark aesthetic set ups. I like the elegant look but gamer look when rgb is on. Can I ask are the walls a dark grey or black? Can never tell over video

[@SideofTech]

I’m glad you enjoyed! It’s like a dark grey with a greenish tint. Looks really nice in person 🤗

[@Lcbear101]

Dude this is such a level up!! 🤌🏻 thanks for blessing our day with another video!

[@SideofTech]

Glad you enjoyed it! This was fun to make for ya’ll 🤗

[@user-su2rg4wx4w]

Maybe a NAS would be the solution for your storage problem? Great video!

[@SideofTech]

I actually have one already, but sadly it’s not that fast to work directly off of 🥲 I would opt for the 8tb of onboard storage if it meant I could work solely off my MacBook haha

[@ChainsawzTheInsane]

Hey, I'm curious, does your gaming PC also somehow connect to Caldigit TS4? I want to pull off the same thing with hybrid setup, but I'm not sure how :)

[@SideofTech]

Hello! It does not, I achieve this using the thunderbolt port on the back of my monitor for the Mac and display port for my PC 😄

[@thirdforest182]

Love the matte gray wall color - do you have any info on where I can find that or what it’s called? Sick setup!

[@SideofTech]

Hello, thanks for watching! The color is called peppercorn from SW 🤗

[@SideofTech]

Thank you! They’re from Deltahub, I cover them in the video 😁

[@gabor_artms2]

Hello! Amazing video! Just asking: what is the neon you put on the ikea pegboard?

[@SideofTech]

Thank you! This is a light bar from Amaran called the T2C 👍🏼

[@gabor_artms2]

@@SideofTech ok thank you so much !

[@IrezumiSleeves_]

Awesome video! Where did you get the ff7 figures?

[@SideofTech]

These are the amiibos for the super smash bros game 🤗

[@jasonwilliams6870]

Can you give some insight as to why you chose the E5 over Flexispot's other options like the E7 or E7 plus (4 leg version). Has the E5 been stable enough for your uses at both sitting and standing heights?

[@SideofTech]

I did a partnership with Flexispot and they sent me the E5 for review but the weight capacity has been 💯 since day one. At both heights it’s really stable. Check out that video if you wanna get some insight on the desk!

[@Bpags868]

Do you run that tube light on the pegboard on battery or is it permanently plugged into the wall?

[@SideofTech]

It’s just on battery and I charge it whenever it needs it 🤗

[@jacquelynnacopoulos1278]

Hello, Congratulations Cool👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@SideofTech]

Thanks for watching!! 🤗

[@roninstormYT]

hey do you know if your monitor uses pip and pbp with is picture in picture and picture by picture witch lets me use two devices on one monitor instead of dual monitors

[@SideofTech]

It does buts it’s very unreliable, it drops signal very often when I try to run a split screen 😵‍💫

[@velocity1601]

Hey man! I was wondering if there was a way to get a 72x30" E5 like that shipped to my country but i couldnt find a way no matter where i searched, if you could, can you help me figure this out?

[@SideofTech]

Hello! I believe Flexispot only ships to the US currently. They do have some of their products on Amazon so if you have their services in your country, I believe it can work. Hope this helps!

[@velocity1601]

@@SideofTech I see, there were canadian and australian felxispots sites so i was just wondering. Appreciate that you tried though. (The Amazon Flexispot E5 is 55x28" even on the other models, cant find the 72x30" model there.)

[@Thewickedjon]

i like your setup, you should consider building a NAS, and putting it somewhere very far away from your desk, like a closet or something. If you manage to do this, you might just be the first ever mac user to ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND how a nas works. most mac users that i see, - have excellent taste in aesthetics - have great cable management skills - have very nice desks - value comfort, - dont understand what a NAS is - usually resort to a bunch of small ssd's for storage (because they dont understand what a nas is) - get angry when someone says mac users dont understand what a NAS is, , and decide to buy more usb storage, thinking its a nas - WHEN they eventually do some research and get a nas, it's usually a synology ( the most apple-like nas maker) - they fail to understand NAS stands for NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE , and you see them bolting the nas under the desk or some incredibly stupid thing like that, thinking that having it closer to their billion thunderbolt docks will somehow make transfers faster?? Anyways, you have a nice pc, which makes me wonder, why would you even need a ps5 ? i mean, ,,,, sigh.... lemme get outta here before i accidentally offend someone...

[@SideofTech]

Well I’m glad you took the time to comment! I’m also proud to say I have set up my very own NAS which is from Synology. Right now I just use it as extra storage and as a backup to my SSDs. I really do need to upgrade it tho since it’s reaching capacity! Also I only have the PS5 for the exclusives 😎

[@amasephy]

Any chance you can share the exact wall paint colors?

[@SideofTech]

The wall color is Peppercorn from SW 👍🏼

[@monsterx1121]

i have a question what is the best window if i wanna buy one window 10 or 11 ?

[@SideofTech]

Definitely 11 👍🏼

[@BobCostas-db5hb]

if you're really into keyboard, have you heard of Mode Keyboards? Seems they're really becoming popular among minimalists

[@SideofTech]

Oh yes, I’ve heard of them. They’re just crazy expensive haha, but hopefully one day I’ll get a Sonnet! 😅

[@RatchetMiner]

Please tell me where you got your ipad stand.

[@SideofTech]

The iPad stand is from the Balolo desk accessories system for this specific desk shelf. I have it linked in the description, hope this helps!

[@uTubeJoe]

Is the audio interface connected to CalDigit?

[@SideofTech]

Yes it is via usb-a to c 😄

[@mrbabyhugh]

so basically, these desk setup videos is just about how much money has been spent on peripherals.

[@Beadlock_]

And now it’s time to consolidate the PC headset and the PS5 into 1, being the Audeze Maxwell.

[@SideofTech]

But the question is that or the Astro A50 X? 🤔

[@wastedo]

looks great but that to-do list is like $100 aud :(

[@SideofTech]

Yeah it’s pretty pricey! But reusable 👍🏼

Am I blind or is there no link for the adjustable desk legs?

[@SideofTech]

The legs are the Flexispot E5. Can be found on their website 😄

[@deletedchanneI]

so... you say H9 was built for PS5 but you also it doesn't have full support... may be they wasn't built for playstation? they was built for general gaming usage but with little bit better integration for playstation

[@SideofTech]

Hey you’re right! A slight miscommunication on my part. I do cover and explain it better in my full review. Thanks for commenting!

[@deletedchanneI]

no way you don't have KVM switch

[@Fant0me972]

If it ain’t broke…

[@DlES-IRAE]

Hey mate, awesome setup! I was wondering which chair you are using?

[@SideofTech]

Thank you! This is the Herman Miller Aeron, it’s covered in the video 🤗
