 Folks, I'm Nathan and Ruffle Jants, and this is our first ever episode of setup crusade Setup crusade is a weekly show where we show off your guys's setups and we go over what's included in your setup What the parts might be so people if they're interested could go buy that stuff themselves we also give suggestions on how we think your setup could be improved and Let you guys at the end of the episode vote on which setup is the winner now We take up to six setups per episode however, because it's a brand new show is no surprise our very first episode only had two submissions, but We are very thankful for the submissions we did get without further ado. Let's get right into it Our first submission comes from LYP as you can see here There's a rather basic setup for LYP with a TV Wii U switch and PlayStation 4 all just sitting on a small table in the corner now This isn't bad in that of itself. However, the organization could be better, right? The fact that the gamepad covers up the bottom part of the TV Isn't really that attractive in I'm guessing this is just the angle of the shop But it does look like the TV's a little crooked. I could be wrong there Maybe he needs to fix the stand or You know get a whole brand new stand maybe even put that TV on the wall The wall mount now because I don't know what type of TV it is I can't make a suggestion for a wall mount, but in general it's it's a pretty base setup pretty cluttered If I had to guess there had to there should be a way to attach a shelf below the bottom to put your consoles there To free up space on that TV to maybe display Some show pieces whether it is games that you want to have stacked over there Or maybe you just want to put like those little Ikea plants or something He also has a gaming PC with a recording setup You know, you'll see here in the picture is an ASUS monitor. I believe this is the ASUS VS 247 HR The keyboard that you'll notice there is the razor desktop or chroma It's actually a keyboard. I used to own myself until I replaced it recently with our Models from Corsair the microphone is the microphone I'm actually using to record with this right now. We have the exact same microphones the blue Yeti and The webcam you see at the top is a Logitech C922 and the mouse is a razor mama tournament edition He also has a capture card somewhere in here the Elgato game capture HD again I can vouch for the quality of the capture card because I use that myself for all the game footage you see here at Nintendo Prime For audio, he does not have any speakers. He just has some ear pop your your little earbuds And he plans to get some headphones down the line Overall the setup here in the desk again It looks like he has some some space issues some limited space I would suggest maybe finding a Way to adjust things around like your printer if you were able to take your game consoles off your TV stand that I'm Assuming is next to your desk and add a shelf on the bottom where you could put your game consoles there That would free up that entire corner to put your printer So you have more space on your desk itself I see it looks like you have some game controllers on there again Freeing up that space would allow you to put a controller stand there You hold your PlayStation 4 controllers or your switch controllers or what have you I do really really like the toad touch Just that one simple little amiibo on the desk very classy Moving on to the rest of his setup. He shows his cable management skills which Leave some to be desired here You'll see his Elgato game card PlayStation controllers and what looks like a PlayStation 3 Something I don't believe he mentioned and a stack of games And I think this is actually the shelf I was talking about that might be available underneath his TV Based on the fact that in the corner. I see the Wii U game pad So again, I feel like the cable management here could be a lot better now It looks like there are two panels blocking the wall. There is All those wires you see are very easy to hide Behind that stuff. So then you would only see the single wire Going down the black going down which I assume goes to a power strip and the other wires It's just kind of haphazardly laid in there Now I'm not wanted to talk about the best cable management in the world if you saw my introduction video notice My cable management skills weren't exactly up to par But I have a lot of reasons to have my cables readily available Based on a lot of things. I need a hot swap out on a daily basis Here, I don't think there's a lot of reason to have the cables that way. So there there's just so It could be done better Let's just put it that way And I feel like if you reorganize things a little better You could actually move a lot of those game consoles down to the shelf again freeing up that extra space to put your printer over there Again freeing up some extra space on your desk allowing you to have less clutter Just a thought Moving on our second submission comes from Miko So this setup he shows off the entire room So first you see just a patch out of the room here It looks like he has a sort of bean chair bear Bag bed chair, whatever you want to call it along with a corner couch leather system with his PC Stuff in the corner If you turn things around you can see his TV and that is I believe an LG 19mm 43 HD TV so 43 inch LG HD TV In addition if you look at his computer setup over here, he has a 22 inch LED LG monitor He apparently doesn't know the name of it and I couldn't find the brand He says he has a generic USB gamecube controller there. So no that's not hooked up to a gamecube That's a PC controller He's got the tech net as extended mouse mat an AT 2020 plus microphone An old Dell keyboard from 2002, you know one of those free ones They pack it with the PCs and a steel series rival 300 mouse now He did not provide much of a picture of his actual gaming PC But it does have an i5-4460 and MSI R9 392 gig 8 gigabytes of Corsair Vengeance Ram An ASUS H97 ME motherboard fractal design core 1500 micro ATX mini tower case Of course, they're CX 500 watt power supply and a WD blue one terabyte hard drive again all the links to his various Stuff in his setup will be down in the description below along with L Y C setup too Now if you go back to look at his actual Setup for his games the only thing I do not like about You know how I would improve this again is cable management and Cable management is one of the hardest things to do Especially when you are rocking the kind of setup he has where you have a giant wide open spaces with no backing there So one thing I would suggest and this is just from my own personal preference is you can get some twist ties Or you can get some velcro straps and take that the switch wires coming off of the switch You could actually run those straight down against that that what that? Divider before right before the TV and then over it up behind the TV and you would end up not seeing those wires crossover You also have a bunch of wires just haphazardly laying on the ground try to see more for your Wii U and DVD player or cable box etc Again, there's not a whole lot to do to hide those at this point Just because you have that bit giant power strip That's actually bigger than any space you have to hide it potentially But I do notice that behind your TV there appears to be a single long You know Backing below back piece. I assume it's just for support You should be able to use some 3m tape and connect your power strip to that back there Which would then lift all your cables off of the ground and allow you to hide them in that spot Just some food for thought you don't have to change your setup at all But it is a way that I would improve your gaming setup here And obviously I love the fact that you have Mario Kart 8 Deluxe up fantastic game love the way your amiibo are displayed I could you say some OCD and say you're including amiibo? I believe is a little bit off in terms of the spacing but Okay, I guess I just said that Just moving back to your PC gaming setup. I love the dual monitor setup. It's fantastic I use dual monitors myself You know I'm I always a big fan of different size dual monitors, but I understand people that don't have matching monitors It's okay I used to use mismatch monitors all of the time and there's reasons sometimes to have different size monitors as well I do notice that the cable management looks again a little messy Again cable management is one of the hardest things to do. Well, especially when you're setting up things So the desk you have is an IKEA linman and you're using the signum rack to hold up your wires And that's a fantastic rack to use It's actually a rack I've been looking into adding to my own setup to help with cable management And I do see that you're using some zip ties and you have things it almost looks like you Tried the cable manager, but you didn't go all the way with it So there's little things you can do to improve this cable management setup as an example Those wires you have to the left by your back left leg You could have had those a long it looks like with your wireless router could have ran along the Bottom leg they're going up if they needed to come up from the ground And then you could have ran them across the backside of your desk and held it there with velcro tape or twist ties and Some 3m tape and then have it come into the rack mount So the only thing you would really see are some wires packed into the rack mount with everything plugged in the wires coming from your PC again You could have cable managed them and had them come up the right leg over there and then over to the rack And I know some of those wires are probably extra wires from like your monitors and stuff Again just some suggestions that could improve the look of your setup. You might not care How about this is setup crusade so it is obviously all about Some of the aesthetics and how people create their video game setups either way it is a very good setup I'm extremely jealous of your couch and your TV since I'm only rocking a little 32-inch cheap Vizio And that I got from Walmart.
