The Rig
Everything on the desk — and everything humming inside the tower. 16 pieces of gear I actually own and use on stream, each one reviewed honestly. If you've ever asked "what do you use?", here's the whole web in one place.
Stream Control
Elgato Stream Deck +
The Stream Deck + is the most versatile control surface Elgato has produced, and its limitations are ones of capacity rather than quality.
Audio
Audeze Maxwell Wireless Gaming Headset
A legitimate audiophile product wearing a gaming headset's feature set.
HyperX QuadCast 2 S
A meaningful generational improvement that keeps everything the original did well.
Camera
Logitech Brio 4K
An aging flagship that still earns its desk space through image quality and Windows Hello.
Desk & Peripherals
OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro
A surprisingly credible enthusiast keyboard from an unexpected source.
Razer Naga V2 Pro
The definitive MMO mouse, and a credible everything mouse, held back only by its software and mass.
Razer Goliathus Extended Chroma, Halo Infinite Edition
An indulgence that performs its actual job flawlessly.
Displays
LG C3 OLED 42"
The most convincing argument yet that the best monitor may be a small television.
Dell UltraSharp U3419W
A productivity instrument that quietly organized the entire desk.
Inside the Machine
ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360
The rare component that outperforms its price bracket by an entire tier.
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
The easiest CPU recommendation of its generation for gamers.
Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX
Unremarkable in operation, which is exactly what a motherboard should be.
G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo 64GB DDR5-6000 (AMD EXPO)
Exactly what validated memory promises to be, at the capacity serious work requires.
Lian Li O11 Dynamic
The definitive showcase chassis of its era, sold slightly incomplete.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
An unreasonable product, executed almost flawlessly.
Samsung SSD 990 PRO 2TB
Boring, fast, and dependable, in the order storage should prioritize.
