Room Tour Project 55 - Best Gaming and Desk Setups ft. Dom Esposito

**The Room Tour Project**

I'm DOM and I'm excited to be back again on room tour project. A big thank you to Frank P for making that happen, but if you're subscribed to my channel, I'm sure you've noticed the changes in my desk setup. If you're not, I'm going to give you guys a behind-the-scenes look at how everything is set up over here with my desk in the office and things like that.

**The Desk Setup**

So, this is where all the magic happens and it's been updated with a few extra goodies since my last desk tour. First off, as far as the actual desk is concerned, well, it's not meant to be a desk at all. This giant slab of wood is actually a Karlby kitchen countertop from IKEA resting on two Alex drawer units lined with a Philips Hue light strip along the backside. The top is heavy enough to keep everything in place and the rubber feet from the setup actually keep it from sliding around. Overall, it's pretty dope and it looks real clean.

**The Monitors**

Next up, quite possibly the star of the show here are my dual LG ultra-wide monitors. I just upgraded to these bad boys, and if you're curious, they are the 34" 4K UHD models both of which are mounted on a Rigged CIG triple monitor mount which I removed the middle section from to accommodate the two ultra-wide up top.

**The Webcam and USB Hub**

Here we have a Logitech C920 webcam and below the monitors there's actually an anchor for Port USB 3.0 hub for some additional connectivity. Lining the sides of the desk, we have my Yamaha HS 8 speakers which I've had for a while and absolutely love. They're nice and loud, transparent, and sound, and are resting on top of a pair of Ultimate Support speaker stands which are very sturdy.

**The Headphones**

Now, when I'm not in the mood for loud speakers, I tend to stick with these Samson Z55 headphones. These sleek cans feature 45 millimeter drivers, comfortable lambskin ear pads, and cater to a more transparent pro sound. And of course, I keep those cans rested on a Just Mobile headphone stand.

**The Audio Interface**

For my audio interface, I'm still rocking the Focusrite Forte which I've had forever, and for the money, this thing is excellent. It's my go-to interface for everything around the office, and it looks pretty clean as well with its aluminum design.

**The PC**

Of course, audio would be nothing without the means to capture it all, and that's where my beast of a PC comes into play. If you're not familiar with Black Eyes, it's a PC build that I did a while back, and it's been running like a champ for everything we do here ever since. It's packing dual Titan X GPUs, 64 gigabytes of RAM, and an Intel i9-9900X processor but whether it's editing audio production or gaming, this thing is a boss all around.

**The Peripherals**

For peripherals, I'm rocking the Corsair K70 RGB Rapid-Fire Mechanical Keyboard with LED backlighting and Cherry MX Speed key switches. And for my mouse, I'm rocking the Corsair Scimitar RGB Gaming Mouse. Oddly enough, we find the programmable buttons on the side extremely useful for editing in Adobe Premiere. It's just really nice to have keyboard shortcuts lined up at your fingertips when using the mouse.

**The Mass Storage**

For mass storage, I'm rocking a couple of different solutions here. First up, we have my trusty G-Raid Studio which packs 6 terabytes of storage and works great for editing off of. But the main star here is my Synology DS416+ network-attached storage unit and this baby is packing 16 terabytes of storage and is accessible from anywhere in the world. So we're always sharing files across it, backing up data, and even streaming movies to the TV with its built-in transcoding. It's very epic.

**Conclusion**

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys I'm random Frank P back with episode 55 of room tour project the series that we show off the best setups our special guests gonna be Dom Esposito I'm sure you guys all know Dom from his YouTube channel he'll be showing off his updated 2016 office and setup really pumped for that and as always we have some killer setup to show off so hope you're pumped and we'll start off episode 55 first is a nice quadruple monitor set up here at the three on the bottom with the overhead display really liking what I'm seeing here with the purple RGB lights and those two salt lamps on the desk it really adds a nice ambient glow as for those monitors his main center display is a BenQ XL two-for-one onesie gives at 1080p 144 Hertz display the two on the sides are an AOC p23 5h and that overhead is an Acer 2 3 6 7 they are all 1080p screens here but having that main BenQ monitor at the 144 Hertz was a great idea definitely getting to take advantage of all those frames but as for the peripherals on his desk he's using the Razer BlackWidow tournament edition keyboard which would explain why it is more compact loving that and his mouse to go along with the keyboard is the Razer DeathAdder metal take a look at the PC hidden behind some fake plants but you know plants always a nice touch inside the NZXT s340 white case he has an i-5 6600 K CPU cooling that is the cooler master hyper 212 Evo a very popular budget CPU cooler 16 gigs of HyperX ram and then an msi gtx 960 graphics card and on top of the case he has a gift you said he got from his best man at his wedding which is a knife I don't know if it's counter-strike related or not I don't really follow that kind of stuff but anyways it's a nice little touch to add some personalization all together the four monitors here look sick a very nice gaming setup in your bedroom and like I said earlier the purple lights with those two salt lamps adds a nice overall glow now I can really relate to this guy at home with my blast setup I had the really white and cool tone theme I moved on to a more warmer theme with those wood accents and hear exactly what he's rocking here warm glowing LED lights a wooden desk loving this the setup itself is laid out really nicely as well desktop isn't too cluttered lights behind the monitor is always a nice touch in those picture frames above the setup really do something the layout which they're hung up was done really nicely and it really adds a lot to this setup and when talking his main gear that monitor is a belyeu 34 1 5w a 34 inch ultra wide the single monitor choice here I think was great that would much rather prefer seeing this ultra wide as opposed to just two monitors side-by-side that are a 16 by 9 ratio now for his peripherals he's using a Logitech illuminated keyboard BK 800 and the Logitech M 510 wireless mouse and as for audio he's using the bose QC 15 noise cancelling headphones and for the speaker's the Edifier e 25 lunar eclipse in white looks really really nice these speakers are awesome and then no main rig does show off he's using both his laptops is an HP laptop and a macbook pro because he is a photographer so he can take his work with him on the go or hook it up to the monitor when he's home to make this kind of versatile best setup all together for I guess I productivity setup I love what he's done with it it looks really nice and I just love the warm glowing tones to this and now we got Dirk with his red and black floating custom PC desk I love seeing these the fact they're always DIY and always look awesome is just so refreshing to see before we get into the beauty that is that beast that was pretty good we'll talk about his gear and his monitor is the asus rog swift PG 27 q the 27-inch 2560 by 1440 p 865 hertz refresh rate monitor beautiful in this setup definitely going to fit in with the theme meant force peripherals he uses the corsair gaming k70 RGB rapid-fire keyboard paired with the coarser m65 RGB mouse although in the photos it seems he is using a different mouse at that time and what I like is I noted the one he doesn't use the peripherals Caslon on the top of the desk doesn't hide any of those externals in the desk being shown and let's be real you wouldn't want to hide that anyway and now taking a look at that red carbon desk build as he calls it this thing is just beautiful here's an i7 4790k CPU eight gigs of course our Dominator platinum rim that's on the ASUS Maximus 7 Ranger motherboard in the GTX 970 from Asus he Strix 4 gigabyte edition then you just take a look inside all the other custom cooling components tons of things from ek whether it's the nickel fittings or the pump it all just looks so nice obviously there's an RGB light strip in there to kind of accent the components inside and the coolant and all together it's just done really well very clean and awesome looking definitely a gamers build here all together Dirk gotta hand it to you man you built yourself it's awesome modded desk PC and your setup as a whole looks really great and I love the whole black and red theme you stuck to now this setup I have to praise for sticking to that black and green aesthetic here you went the extra mile and I notice that dedication into the main stuff that monitor is an asus rog swift PG 27 8q the 27-inch 144 Hertz monitor again on the desk for those beautifully matched peripherals we have the ducky shine 5 RGB keyboard with some line green key caps on them as well to accent and highlight the black and green theme that's what I'm talking about here for the mouse you had logitech g930 the AKG q 701 headphones in that lime-green they are a great pair of headphones so shout out for taking those up in the Mackay cr.42 inch speakers have that lion green accent great stuff SiC into a certain aesthetic and then no it doesn't end there because inside the NZXT eh 440 razor case again black and green we have an i7 5820k cpu with the NZXT kraken x61 liquid cooler because your Dominator platinum Ram was again colored green whether it's spray painted or Placid dip whatever it matches the theme with that lime green look and you got dual EVGA 980ti hybrid graphics cards but just just look at this you have the green sli bridge the black and green cables I just can't stress enough how much I love the dedication to sticking to that black and green theme the entire way here so while the setup might not be too flashy or you know really overkill it cut a lot of the setups I show off on this show and just having all those RGB lights glow whether being your mouse your keyboard or their black and green PC really helps this setup shine literally what's going on everyone this is DOM and I'm very
