It's a good thing you made this video. I was recently planning on buying an AIO with a display to replace my monitor. Guess I'll just stick with what I have. :(
You'll be gaming on the display on the side of your 5090 or 6090 pretty soon. Then probably the Motherboard I/O cover, the top of the ram, the top of the m.2, the back of the PSU, etc...
I think it should be okay, because there are some cables that are routed from the front to the back via the top side of the motherboard (although idk if that was just luck or intentional :P)
Give it a couple of months and some mad lad will code the original game so it can be played natively, which this thing sure can do considering it is playable on lower end electronics.
You could've also used VRCDN as latency is only 0.7 seconds from your PC to the streaming service (using the RTSP link or the MP4 link or the Preview link)
I'm a bit confused as to why NZXT would make a display with 60Hz refresh, but couple it with USB 2.0. Obviously, there is a bandwidth issue. No idea how you thought of this, but it's why I sub.
That's the sucky part he was limited by the CAM software, and hardware interface. There are a lots of small round displays now for hobby electronics projects with HDMI interfaces that can do the proper bandwidth.
If the desktop is encoding an H.264 video that gets streamed to the display on the cooler, it would only require a fraction of the bandwidth available over USB 2.0. Even a 4K Blu-Ray maxes out at 128 Mbps.
Use ffmpeg to stream desktop to localhost while also resizing the stream to smaller resolution (ideally that fits your AIO). you can open the stream in browser (assuming you have the correct streaming protocol selected). that way you should be able to get your latency down to few seconds or maybe even less... or you can setup a local rtsp server and stream to it with OBS... then with little HTML knowledge you can make your own little streaming twitch-like platform locally... that will also reduce your latency... (its still going to be few seconds... but definetly better than twitch)
Just picked up a Jonsbo d41 case and it has a screen built into it. I actually used it to install windows and mess with the bios. I also played a couple games on it. It has the same resolution as a steam deck 1280x800. Pretty neat little case got it for my old parts 5800x3d 3080ti. Love your channel you do crazy stuff nobody else does.
@@Elinzar i was surprised the build quality was fine came in perfect condition the extra screen looks good its 1280x800. The only complaint I have is there’s not a lot of room behind the motherboard for cable management. But for its size you can put a 360 aio or a decently tall air cooler in it. And I’ve seen people put really big gpu’s like the gaming oc 4090 in it. And the design has plenty of airflow with plenty of holes on the top, bottom and front of the case. I have 3x120 fans on the bottom 2x140 on the top and a 120 on the back and front. I used a thermalright peerless assassin 120 cooler, 5800x3d and a ftw3 3080ti with an evga p2 750 watt psu. Its weird having the psu up front in the case. But it was nice having the small screen i used it to install windows and change some bios settings to make sure everything worked before moving it to my game room. The only crappy thing now is everyone likes this build better than my main rig. Its a 7950x3d, arctic freezer ii 420 cooler, 4090 in a phanteks evolve x case. There are two ways you can get the case screen or no screen and mesh or solid panels. Make sure to get mesh but I hope this helps some. I need to learn how to use aida64 to make cool hardware info templates for the small screen. Thankfully you can find some and download them but I’ve seen some very cool ones. Seems like this case is getting kind of popular mainly because that small screen makes it unique and useful if you like tinkering.
@@ChadKenova i cant blame them for liking that pc more, smallish cases are all the rage now and even if you got the mid tower ATX one (im aiming for the D31, iirc is the mATX version of this case) is fairly small having the psu in the front im currently rocking a Maximus Hero IX board and the old ASUS ROG Front Base monitor in front, and is so damm useless... its also not supported in win 11 anymore so yeah, planning to go Alder lake soon and get me the D31 case to build it on and give this pc to my cousing or we thanks for the details, i will pay attention to the cable magnament and im glad it have good quality, i hope that it survives shipping to Latin america tho lmao, do you remember if it was well packed?
Does it also work if you use localhost as the url? If so, you could probably just make your own webserver on your machines and hopefully decrease latency by a lot since you're not connecting to then internet anymore.
In general I'd agree. However, in this instance LTT has done gaming on a similar thing. I can't recall if they did an AIO, but they've done front-of-case screens gaming before lol.
You know when a Dawid video includes "it got me thinking..." In the intro, we're in for one hell of a gaming hardware fever dream for the next 10-20 minutes
I honestly doubt anyone else on RU-vid wouldn't think about gaming on the screen of a cooler 😂. Utterly insane. Well done, I give you thiddy three out of ten for this video.
Assuming this works, you could self host a webpage that allows you to broadcast to the AIO in real time at a semi decent framerate. I bet somebody has already made such a thing or even if I knew about this, could of done it for you. Love these wacky videos and challenges.
Great video! BTW all the new features shown, like Webpage integration, 15 degree LCD rotation, GIFs and so on are all in the recent NZXT CAM update and work on the old Kraken Z series AIO models.
I could hardly see through the tears in my eyes in the last few minutes of this video (the fact that I'm a chinese with chinese eyes doesn't help at all). Excellent video as always Dawid!
1:56 breaking the connector to figure out the orientation has been my tried and true method since i started building. i don't know if i'm ready for change
Ive been addicted to Kitboga, Pierogi, Atomic Shrimp, Pleasant Green, and of course Jim Browning for years. I watch so many channels that its kind of alarming actually... lol
I love it, this is content heaven! I remember porting Quake (vanilla) to my Compaq personal organizer back in the day (don't ask why I had one of those); the results weren't massively better - but it worked :)
I've got a case with a display on the front of it. It's a perfectly normal 8" 1280x800 IPS LCD over HDMI, so there's nothing too special about it other than just the e-peen factor of literally gaming on my gaming PC. They market it for either Wallpaper Engine or Aida64 sensor panel.
lol, that was awesome. Flipping the display is also likely going to add latency because it will require and additional frame buffer to flip all the pixels. Not that it matters in this case, lol
Hey, Thermaltake sells a Display you can put on your RAM called the "Pacific R2 Ultra Memory LCD Monitor Kit" They also have a Case called "Ceres 500 TG" that you can ALSO buy an extra display for "LCD Panel Kit for Ceres 500" Here's my idea: build a PC with as many Displays on/in the case as possible!
Well done , now if only you could get all your opponents to take the same steps and you might win altogether. How about upgrading to one of those long thin lcd case screens Dawid?
I actually almost bust a gut laughing at such a stunt. Forgive me, but when Dawid first said an AIO, I imagined one of those Dell or Apple all-in-one computers and not a liquid cooler. So when he trucked out the NZXT box, I had a moment of disbelief. But it is Dawid, so..., yeah he always doing these insane stunts. Very good video, had me laughing out loud during the whole time.
For CSGO, you can use the number keys to buy stuff. Also if you died, you can take control of the bot by pressing "USE" which is "E" by default. Hopefully that helps for later crazy projects.
one trick I like using is vdo ninja, there is a clean video feed and is pretty low latency. People use this for like conference stream and whatnot, but screensharing to it should be possible
Something that AIO display would actually be useful for is a raspberry pi cyberdeck style build, the cooling system is also the screen. Ive never seen a cyberdeck with water cooling though, much less one that gets hot enough to need one
This video sort of reminds me of when I try to play Minecraft on my smartwatch it was definitely a better experience, you could also sideload space desk onto it so you can actually use it as a second monitor
damn that's actually pretty cool aio I thought of a funny use for a simmilar tech for a supercompact pc design, use a 1 fan aio as a screen for your pc
