Thanks for watching! What did you guys think of the setup?

The dumpling neon sign is special. It’s invigorating. For me I would put one up as “車仔面”. My favorite.

I have the same PC, focusrite, and speakers. I've never run into any problems with the PC. I've pushed it hard with video editing, photoshop, stock charts, multiple monitors, obs, etc and it still runs like a champ. I also have the Macbook M1 air. Great combo you got there.

Great setup! You can use Synergy to switch seamlessly between your computers, without messing with Bluetooth connections.

Tip: look into Synergy. Instead of a singular monitor set up like you do, I have multiple monitors. With Synergy, it allows you to control your computers with one mouse & keyboard. It's been part of my workflow for years since I use both Mac & PC. It allows me to use both machines equally. Example: Display 1 + 2 = PC. Display 3 = Mac. Synergy can be set up so that you can use all 3 monitors & when you move your mouse off the screen, it appears at that same location on the other machine.

"Cheapest desk I can find, oh and my Herman Miller Chair" haha. I thought that was funny. Great Set up! and yes, the chair is the most important aspect ;)

Uplift desk - worth every penny. Super stable and with the solid wood top it’s a luxury feel.

[markestares]

great thing about creating yout own set up is ther is no limit to it and you get to design and create your dream place.

[bobsfriend]

To improve this I would use software like synergy (paid) or barrier (free and open source) to allow you to use it like it was one computer.

I know this is a year old video but I just found it. I have a MAC/PC KB/M software. this setup is actually perfect for my needs.

The algorithm has blessed you. It's time 🚀

Awesome video, One suggestion though, Using the LOGITECH FLOW can help you to use the same mouse and keyboard on both devices seamlessly without clicking the button underneath. Simply hover to the edge of the display and you are done. The best part is that once you hover your mouse to another screen keyboard sync at the same time without any need to press the button. Make sure both supports LOGITECH FLOW. :D

It would be super helpful to see how you have your connections/setting to use both systems at the same time.

Bro goes like "and i know what you're thinking, why would i talk about a chair?"
LIKE FAM IT'S AN HERMAN MILLER EMBODY. of course you're going to talk about it

I like the way he advertise each product 🤣, any company see these will be impressed.

PC just chilling under the desk and seamlessly levitating with it

[giancarlog]

Try moving your external screen to the usb-c connector on the right of the Macbook. That solved the fan issue in my case. I don't know the reason why, I just read it in a blog post and it worked.

The Nike shirt fit is, well, making your content even better. Yums

Tie the USB C cable of Macbook to the audio arm with a Velcro tie so it won't fall down when you remove it.
