He's got the computer in a microwave! That is sick. I'm not expecting you guys to be able to keep up with my recent glow up But MSI sponsored this video so that we could show a bit of appreciation To our community and take a look at your setup glow ups Whether you cable managed wired up a ton of RGB or went whole hog and completely redid your existing setup I want to see it Plouffe and James want to see it and most importantly All of you guys also want to see it before we get started though I just want to give a huge thanks and shout out to everyone who submitted pictures for today's video We wouldn't be here without you and also a big thanks to MSI and their new laptops the Raider GE68 and Summit E13 flip the Raider that I'm roasting you guys with today has got up to a 13th gen Intel core i9 processor, an RTX 4090 mobile absolute beast and they're cooling it with a brand new shared heat pipe design We'll get more into it and the E13 flip later. But for now, let's light them up Start with Ada Lundhe. Before! I do like this setup, but where is the actual computer? It's under the piano chair Hey, there it is Piano chair you say, that's pretty generous. That looks like an Ikea bar stool to me You know what considering how much gear is in here though? Not bad cable management You didn't have to use your old 0.3 megapixel Logitech webcam to take the picture though. Maybe it's a really old picture Maybe this is a really old setup. I mean that is a square monitor. Yeah. This is back from the days where all walls were yellow Whoa! That’s crazy. Person won the lottery in the interim years I think. Right? Holy cow. All of this audio equipment is tens of thousands of dollars This person is just one of those people who like setting things up Do you actually use this stuff? You cannot play that many keyboards at once I think we witnessed the transition from amateur to professional or from amateur to amateur with a big problem. Sounds like me Adri Dwitomo. Oh, I like the studio monitors or whatever speakers those are. You know, I don't even mind this setup I like these stands. I don't know what you put under them. Surely, those aren't your surround speakers. Oh! No, you didn’t! Never took them off It's so much easier to take them off before you put the wheels on. Was that a UPS down there? Yeah, man or lady of culture. I will sacrifice my foot space. This is nice Now that's a gaming den. What do we got over here? We got the Witcher He's got a nice camera. Wow nice streaming setup. Yeah. Wireless dock. Yeah Also- This person’s set up. What is with these cultured folks with the studio monitor speakers? Right? You know, I never got into it. But man, do they ever sound good? What's under that white cloth? Oh, that's a mystery cloth. Something we're not supposed to see Obviously. Covered it for the photo. Azura. This is the before? This is a nice before. This must glow a lot now if this is what we're looking at for before. This is before at my parents house Sure. Yeah, they got a bunch of manga. They buy every Call of Duty. Buy a lot of Call of Duty. They've got a Switch on the left there Okay, they added lighting. Is that same room? It kind of looks like, well go back go back to the crown molding Yeah, it is! In my humble opinion, the old setup was kind of cooler This is more mature. Yeah, this is way more tasteful Except you need a diffuser for those crown molding LEDs when you can just see the LEDs exposed, no good. It has character. I get it. You need to bring a girl over once in a while. That wasn't an issue at this point How do you know it's not a girl? How do you know they're into girls? If you were bringing a dude over this wouldn't be a problem. Well, okay fine. Oh my god, are you in a bathroom? Oh, no. No, I don't think this is a bathroom I think this is off to the side in the kitchen Oh, maybe. I think this is the old-school phone table. And really like Facebook? Right hand side start menu? You monster! How much you want to bet there's no deodorant? Anyone who would have a right side start panel would have no deodorant. Oh! Wow. This is great. I love it when they do the effort of making it all one thing. It looks really nice I like how the speakers nest underneath in that in the gaps there. That's cool. Tell me this blue. Yeah keyboard nerd Tell me this Plouffe? Yeah? You’re the keyboard nerd How cool is this keyboard, out of ten? It's it's pretty sweet. I really like that wrist rest. Yeah, I was gonna say I really like the like marbly wrist rest. This is perfectly parallel. It’s a coiled cable. Perfectly parallel to the keyboard. Yep. Nice little 60% Oh that plywood. Or is that cardboard? That’s cardboard dude. That’s cardboard. First year engineering student. Also this side panel though. Yeah. There is a side panel on there I just think it is actually cellophane. Oh, I thought it was a plastic peel. It’s totally wrapped. Oh my goodness, this OSD This interface though. The monitor, he took it right out of the shell. It can't get much worse The background got worse. Hey, but the desk pad. Oh yeah, new keyboard with the cable. Cool keyboard. Could be straightened. Couldn’t be bothered to organize that Those are some weak headphones. Wait, combo breaker? We've had all stereo monitors up until now and then we end up with this Is this running off a MacBook or is there a PC somewhere? It's probably off of whatever they got at the dollar store with their headphones. This is classic, look at this Got the old desk. This is a laptop plugged into a TV This desk though I don't even think that's Ikea grade. Got the sick studio monitor. He's got like a hatchet or an axe though This guy an axe murderer? Why do you need this axe? This is the before picture of that other guys white cloth Yeah, you just got a laptop down there. Speaking of laptops, did I mention the Raider GE 68 has a bunch of cool aesthetic upgrades? there's a new customizable matrix light bar and they've infused the MSI logo into numerous spots on the chassis like into the bottom the hinge cover and concealed here in the speaker mesh. How cool is that? Not as cool as this setup Is that a playstation on the bottom shelf or another laptop? PS3 fat. PS3, yeah. Uh oh, it gets Linus-ified Are those just heat sinks sandwiched? With weights on them And I hate that I understand this immediately looking at it The weights are on them because there's no actual mount and they just need some pressure to ensure decent contact between the heat sink and the chip. You're disappointed because you see yourself in this build This is totally something you would have done. This is something I have done! Look at that nice mount though on the side. That's not a nice mount They've got double-sided tape with double-sided velcro on it. No, but it's awesome for convenience You don't have to bend over get your head in there you unvelcro it and dongle up velcro back on I fully agree, and this cabinet or whatever this desk they're using. It's not that expensive You know, they can deal with the tape ripping off later. That's a very tactful way of putting that. See the laptop protrudes out the front? Yeah. That's air flow. There's no door. Go to the after Oh That's crazy Racing, streaming. Okay. So what kind of job did you get? No, look at the desk. Oh, no! No, the desk is even worse That's practical. It might be the same desk is reconfigured. Yeah, that's what the axe was for. Look at this. Ooh They got the LTT sticker Yeah, at least they got their priorities straight spend all your money on LTT store.com Have no money left for a desk that doesn't look like your rodent chewed on it. Oh! I figured it out you guys. This is all chewed up from mounting and remounting the wheel. Oh my God. There it is. That's their old racing rig. Well, it looks better now. Look at that chair. You got that from someone's lawn Wow, that’s messy but there's stuff there. Oh we got a creator here? Yep. Got the key-shaped USB, I like it. Hey, they got a command strip holding the headphones, you know, you can take that off without it damaging anything. Carefully peeling it. And it’s gone. You're not supposed to do that. Is that a fidget spinner or what is that? A disc holder? Is the fidget spinner really our concern when they're using a pull-out keyboard tray? They feel great when you don't want to keep your arms like up on the desk No, they don't! They are awful. Look at this mousing space. Yeah. Okay, that's pretty bad Also, this looks like the worst of the worst of gaming chairs when you have to put one of these dollar store butt pads on just to make it usable, you know, you've made a really poor decision This guy's driver's seat has the beads on it, you know Hey, that's some organization got that nice butcher block gonna make my own table out of just a big piece of wood vibe This is a studio now though. Yes Yeah. It looks good. Some treatment on the ceiling, maybe. Some acoustic treatment would be good. Wow. That's a clean under desk though. Your robot vacuum loves you. Oh classic. Wow, everything about this is square. The monitors, the aspect ratio, the photo. What's that tablet or whatever on the left? Oh my god, that's a Wii U with a sick Splatoon skin or something on it. They do exist It looks like from a scene in Alien where there was gonna be a soldier hung up in that We should just sell shrouds like the desk mats. Just hang them there Also, who do you think you're fooling? What you're gonna put all these in a nice little grid like you're not some kind of savage who just puts everything all over your desktop. No, if you have that many icons on your desktop, you and I can't be friends. Wow. Wife approval factor Well depends if this is in the bedroom, I don’t think my wife would be impressed. Okay, let me rephrase that wife banished factor She gave him this space. Yeah Also, like the ergonomics of this do not look great. You're sitting here. Gaming from the floor. Here we go aquarium vibes I am far more into the minifigures vibe than the gigantic figures in my space vibe. I think it's cool clutter It's nice, especially on a floating shelf. Pull out keyboard tray. Really? Did you go out of your way to add that to this table? They probably don't have much space. Oh wait, holy crap Did you guys notice how low-profile this is? Yeah. That's not deep at all. These are mounted to the wall So your wife gave you even less space. But boy, did you ever make the most of it? I like it I really like that lamp on the left What, this? Yeah. Shining down on the screen? No, I refuse to accept that that is a valid place to put a lamp Andy’s got one! I like the lamp. I know what Andy has You have to try it! I'm not gonna try it. We go out of our way to not have light shining off of our monitors. This is pretty nice This is a pretty nice before, you sure you didn't get those confused? Oh a nice ledge by the window, the monitors on the ledge What? What? The tiny Acer monitor. Why? You have enough depth in your desk. You just put it on- No, no, I get it sometimes- Yeah, sometimes they want to put the arms down. That is not a big enough monitor to- Like a keyboard cat? Intentionally move it farther away. No, I'm sorry They moved or something. You are now above a garage. Cool loft space though It just would have been so much better if you had managed to measure the middle point before you started sticking it to the wall Oh yeah it’s just a little short That’s the kind of thing that you go is it worth redoing all of this no, no, no one else will ever know- The internet. We did. I love these right angle window cases though, that is sick. Got the printer. First printer. Yeah. They got a keyboard stand. Okay, that's not a keyboard stand That's just an Ikea pegboard that they happen to put a keyboard on. Ah, that is a thing he owns. A keyboard presentation stand, because you have more keyboards than you could possibly ever use Evan and Katelyn It's a couple. This is the before? This is awesome. What's up with these laptops? Why would you use laptops when you have this much space? And it looks like they have a desktop under the desk anyway Is that her hair extensions hanging out in the foreground? That looks like it or a wig yeah. Wow! Someone made some YouTube money. It looks great. Look at all that treatment. Looks awesome. Probably sounds amazing in there. I love this desk. That's the same desk. Oh, wow. It's very practical. It's cleaner now. Two keyboards is a better number than what you had going on there before. Some of the same mice Seven monitors, that's a lot of monitors. They got chat, other chat, other other chat Keep it simple. Yeah. Got a monitor arm. Is that a vape? It looks like it, yeah. Front and center baby. Got the vape Tasteful vape. Got the Xbox controller what else could you possibly need? Whoa got the father-son setup going on I love it. You can tell which one's the dad by the computers. Yeah by how much better it is See, I would never consider giving my son an inferior setup Is that white thing the vape still or did this guy quit? Nope Vape’s right there baby. Made my case out of concrete? That's wild. Is that good for cooling like it's gonna suck in a lot of heat but then it's gonna keep it. What is this speaker doing? There's so many questions. Where are the fans on these holes? It just uses the Noctua fans to cool everything. I think there's a primitive technology video where he builds this case He's got the DVD. Look at this. You got the diamond plating side panel though. This looks pretty good though, they got the Kleenex on the desk. So they're always ready. Where's your VR headset? Where's your VR headset? This is like kind of garage vibes. That pair of scissors on the right I would angle that the other way more feng shui. Yeah. Wow. He's got his keyboard vertical so he could type like this He just pecks! Finger guns. Does some actual electronics stuff though. Those sunglasses were free These headphones were free. I hope so. What about the back there behind the keyboard this guy right here? Yeah. No idea. Clearly some kind of display cuz there's an HDMI cable Hooked into a RasPi or something It looks like it's made out of K'nex. Like is this a Lego monitor stand? Mad respect for the cardboard box monitor stand Almost as good as that other cardboard box monitor stand? I love the Yellowstone, Sequoia, and Yosemite posters. Okay, this is still here. What is this thing? It's got a use They got a nice keyboard, a glasses case Definitely a big headphone glow up. Also these Lego plant kits. Oh, yeah, they're great. A little bonsai It's super popular. Yvonne got into them. We have like all of them Gelo That bag of chips front and center? What the hell is Gelo? There’s several. I think there's two or three, there’s two bags of chips right there. Oh, I haven't seen this in many a year Do you remember the music visualization in Windows Media Player? This is a pretty old picture. That was so cool. Whoa What is all that? Funko Pops. I can't say that I think it's a great investment, but if they make you happy Cool case. Oh yeah. Is it Gundam or what is it? It looks like it. I like the planning here. You got a calendar. Yeah, nothing on it They probably want four sticks of RAM just so that they've got the RGB going. Reminder: do nothing Wait till next January get motivated again. Oh, it is Gundam, this is awsesome. There’s a figurine in the computer. That's pretty cool. Oh no Wow Let's address the sheets first. Who were your celebrity crushes? You really should not charge your devices in your bed. If they catch fire you burn. I like that cute little clock Yeah, I like it. It's like old-school alarm clock. That thing gets loud Honestly, I consider this to be a better use of this pullout drawer than putting a keyboard on it I want to know why there's a microphone here. Recording farts They're gaming from bed and they're using that microphone because they don't want to use the crappy mic on the laptop. You know what? Respect. Yeah. Hey Well, they're a Magic fan. Another awesome case. Yeah, cool keyboard. Sick keyboard. Nice skin on the MacBook Yeah, white peripherals. Oh ergo mouse. Wow There must have been a lot of years in between these ones that would be kind of a fun game to play Oh, how long between? How many years in between? Should have asked. We're just gonna power through it boys Sounds good. Just like we're gonna power through this message from MSI. Don't you hate not having enough IO? Well with the Raider GE 68 You're always good to go No matter what needs plugging in. Two USB A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two type C 3.2 Gen 2 ports, one with power delivery Both with DisplayPort, Thunderbolt 4 with DisplayPort, but wait, there's more. We've also got HDMI 2.1 for 4k 120 hertz an audio combo jack, full-size SD card, and when Wi-Fi 60 just isn't enough There's an Ethernet port so you can stay connected no matter what? Oh an old Alienware laptop Canada Dry, baby You got an upset stomach? You didn't even bother showing us the computer just the tissues Got the glass bottle coke and Pepsi though. Oh good job This is really nice. Maximizing the space. The only problem is where do you put your legs and your feet? Yeah, that's a problem You sit cross-legged.

I don't know because it would be terrible for cooling. Yeah, but you got a clock on it and everything.

They spent all their money on Kirbys and MSI spent all their money sponsoring this video. This was a ton of fun I like how positive it is seeing people make upgrades So we actually spent most of the time roasting them. Whatever that was scripted. The point is speaking of small We've got MSI's stealth 16 studio It's a thin and light portable laptop that can handle both gaming and creative tasks We even used them in the gaming minivan that we kitted out a few months ago Thanks again to MSI for sponsoring this video. If you want to check out any of the laptops we mentioned today We're gonna have them linked in the description below. If you guys enjoyed this video be sure to check out other roasting videos We've done we've got to do one in person at LTX and that was super fun getting to see the reactions firsthand
