(Part 2) Top products from r/ShadowPC

Oh I got this one! I play WoW (pvp, raiding, ect) and some other light games. Overall it works great!

Here's my setup:

Mouse - Logitech MX Master 2s: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Cross-Computer-Control-Graphite/dp/B072RCDN7T/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=logitech+mouse+mx+master+2s&qid=1572889826&sprefix=logitech+mouse+mx&sr=8-4

Keyboard - Logitech k480: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Multi-Device-Keyboard-K480/dp/B00MUTWLW4/ref=mp_s_a_1_30?keywords=wireless+bluetooth+keyboard&qid=1572889945&sprefix=wireless+bluetooth+ke&sr=8-30

Bose soundsport wireless earbuds: https://www.amazon.com/Bose-SoundSport-Wireless-Headphones-Aqua/dp/B01L7PWBRG/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?keywords=bose+bluetooth+headphones&qid=1572890109&sprefix=bose+bluetooth+he&sr=8-8

USBC to HDMI with an HDMI cord. This allows the phone to be played on the tv utilizing Samsung DeX.

It’s not ergonomic enough to sell an iPad product like that en mass. Best bet would be to wait for iOS to update with controller support & mix your Phone with a stand like this:

And an iPad sitting on a normal case-stand

Hi, Found this thread while doing my own research. Thanks for the falling over heads up. It saved me from buying the same one. I did end up finding this on amazon and it looks like it's brand new (no reviews yet) and was designed with that issue in mind). I'll post back when i get it tomorrow and test it at night.

Thanks for the reply. I am going to try it with this pc stick that I own - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M6XULXJ/ref=dp_prsubs_1

I think it is pretty close in specs to your box. It does not do windows at 4k, so I may upgrade it. But I will have to see what it get this this box first.

If I can advice you something to play/look videos in bed it's this. I have two of them and it's close to perfect :-) https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=tablet%2Bholder%2Bbed&qid=1554443282&s=gateway&sr=8-4&th=1&psc=1

I use this keyboard https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-KUMARA-Backlit-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B019O9BLVY?th=1
Its the Redragon Kumura, it has RGB Lighting and Blue Mechanical Switches. Its definitely worth the $45 price tag, plus it currently has a Lightning Sale on Amazon for Prime Day so its only $35 for the next 3 hours.

I use an HTPC to access Shadow. Windows seems to be the most stable client IMO. I'd look into getting an Intel Compute Stick or something similar if I didn't already have the HTPC hooked up to the TV. The Nvidia Shield is also pretty great for everything else but I don't like it for Shadow.

So my gaming desktop but keep my Asus ROG. Perfect with the Ghost!

I have heard that people trying it had to plug into different USB ports to find one that worked. Make sure it is a usb c 3.0 or above. Most C cables out in the wild are not. Here is one that oculus recommends. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A6F3WHG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Lwh1DbGJ6AQNF

I've just been using my phone and a telescopic controller like this one.

https://laptoping.com/specs/product/rca-cambio-w101-v2-10-1-2-in-1-tablet-32gb-intel-atom-quad-core-windows-10/

I run it on this tablet right here.

Only problem I had was the 2.4ghz wifi wasn't strong enough for anything more then 10mbs bitrate, i use a USB2.0 to Ethernet hub that also has 3 usb ports.

This here works perfectly on my TV

Overkill. :P I use a GPD XD+ with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

(For when I need them anyways, the XD+ comes with a gamepad built in that'll work for most games.)

which one? I'm not only considering gaming mice as I would also be using this mouse for work productivity as that's what I use my Mac for

Edit: Is this the one you mean? https://smile.amazon.com/Microsoft-7N5-00001-Designer-Bluetooth-Mouse/dp/B00S0CTU2Y?sa-no-redirect=1

SteelSeries Stratus XL Bluetooth Wireless Gaming Controller for iOS Devices(69026) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QTSR5GO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_iNLPBbDT3KVZ4

I use this one, I'm on android but it's compatible with ios.

>DDR4 still costs a lot

16gb of performance RAM can be had for as little as $100

>you need to buy an SSD, HDD, the PSU, all the other items

A 500gb SSD (almost twice the storage of shadow) can be had for $50 and a PSU can literally be as cheap as you're willing to risk paying

Add in a $130 dollar Ryzen Processor, a cheap PC case and Motherboard and you've got an entirely better System (sans the GPU) for a grand total of $450. With the massive price drops of GPUs coming this month, you can add one of your choice and have it all for $800- $900, and that's all brand new hardware. If you were to buy used, you could build for hundreds less.
So no, you're wrong. It's not anywhere near $2000. Not even by half.

There are a few. I have a few of these:

IIRC, the Ethernet is only 100Mbit but should be more than enough for Shadow. I haven’t tried it but the fact you can pick a bitrate, you should have no issue.
