So how does the world devouring serpent like to dine? Now you can know the culinary serpent secrets with this list of approved kitchen implements. Made to help you level up your kitchen game. Most of these are recommended items I am using either right now or have used in the past.

Serpents Kitchen Cabinet

Did you ever wonder what powers the serpent stream besides spinsneks unwavering rotational fortitude? I present to you a collection of my stream gear past and present with my thoughts on usefulness for the aspiring streamer.

The Serpents Stream Gear

A deep dive into the entrails of the Sneks PC. Encompasses all components I currently have in use.

SNEK PC COMPONENTS

Did you know you can get Advanced.gg Gamer Juice for 10% off right now with my code SNAKEOIL. It will double your dick size, give you big ol' ass and titties. Any combination there of and make you the president of whatever country you favor. It will also cure your Ligma.
But seriously I love this stuff its a great 0 Calorie Energy Drink or just flavor with the Hydration line. This list encompasses all flavors and other products I have personally tried.

Dutch Ovens are extremely useful and you should have on in your kitchen toolbox. Enamel coated is recommended. With these what you pay is what you get so maybe shilling out for that Le Creuset might be worth it to you if you have the money to spend.

Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven, 6-Quart, Blue

First off this is a rebrand of the Xrite i1 DisplayPro Calibration tool so if you want one that version might be cheaper. Its a basic display calibration tool that allows you to improve the color accuracy of our monitors. I recommend using DisplayCAL as a free software to apply your color profiles. I got this thing free with the Display when I bought it used and it has been very useful since.

Wacom Color Manager (EODIS3-DCWA)

Very tasty mango flavor. If you love mango you'll love this one.

Mtashed Mango Splash

Small form factor console style pc case. Great if you move often since it fits very well in most travel cases. Not amazing for thermals and acoustics however. My next pc needs to be silent enough to run a ASMR setup so this case is sadly a no go. It might be in use as either an emulation box or a AI painting art machine when I am forced to upgrade.

Fractal Design Node 202 

I have two of these for my monitors. They hold 32 inch monitors ok. Not recommended for setups that need to change often this is more a set it once and forget it kind of thing. You can purchase extra holder  arms to fix two monitors to a pole in vertical configuration. 

Adjustable Monitor Arm

Carbon Steel is much like cast iron in the kitchen. It needs seasoning and can rust but the results are worth it. Get yourself a carbon steel pan for all your frying needs. Brand doesn't matter a ton buy what is available in the size you need and get a good season on it.

Carbon Steel Skillet, Pre-Seasoned

I love this flavor. Could be a bit more sour for my taste but very refreshing and tasty otherwise. 

SirD's Sour Watermelon

Good quality HDD DATA storage drive for Assets and Artwork as well as just for general data hording.

WD Western Digital 2TB 2.5"

Tamagoyaki is lit. Yes it is a very specialty piece of equipment but there is no replacement for it if you wanna make tamagoyaki.

Tamagoyaki Omelette Pan

This Adapter allows you to connect your facial tracking IPhone or IPad to your ethernet via a physical connection which massively improves speed and stability of your tracking connection. I still have this as a fallback option in case the USB connection won't work. Saved my ass at least once so far. Its a bit fiddly with many cables coming off at angles but it also allows you to charge the phone at the same time you are streaming with the power pass trough port which is extremely nice to have. haven't been able to get the data connection to work but that's not really needed for streaming purposes.

Lighting Ethernet Adapter

This one slaps. Very close to the actual soda. Super refreshing. Me and everyone I know how tried it love it.

Original Ramune

Pretty good SATA SSD. Used as a games and steam drive.

Crucial MX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD

Cleavers aren't for everyone but they are a replacement for chef knifes of any style if used correctly. I use cleavers for basically all tasks and can only recommend learning to use them. No real reason to spend a ton of money on one especially initially just get the size and finish you prefer.

Chinese Cleaver

Tastes exactly like bubble tea. I love it and most of my friends also enjoy it. Maybe not for every day but I hear it is also good with milk or almond milk.

Taro Bubble Tea

a right angle lighting cable is much appreciated to connect your facial tracking IPhone to USB. It saves space and allows you to have the phone closer to the desk if needed.

Lightning to USB Cable, Right Angle

2TB of reasonably fast storage on PCIe 3.0. One of the first 3D NAND SSDs  you could get. Basically just a lot of storage for a decent price at the time. used as system and program drive.


Intel 660p Series M.2 2280 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD

Ever wondered what amazing blades top chefs use back in the kitchen. Victorinox is old reliable for a reason. They aren't the best fit or finish but they get the job done and they are super easy to sharpen until you can't anymore and cheap enough to replace afterwards. If you are on a budget this set is all a usual american/european kitchen needs and should last you years for just home useage. 

Victorinox Swiss Army Cutlery Fibrox Pro Knife Set, 4-Piece

I cant find the exact model on amazon.com right now so this is from the European one. This hub is great cause it has two quick charge plus data ports. This allows to both provide enough power to your face tracking IPhone to indefinitely stream and connect to VTube Studio via UBS and just have one single cord. Also obviously great for just the extra USB ports. All around simplifies your streaming setup a lot.

TP-Link UH700 7-Port USB 3.0 HUB

Sadly the Hydration line from Advanced.gg is a bit sparse. From the ones I have tried I like this one the most so far. Its alright to add a bit of flavor to your water from time to time.

Lemonade

At the point I build my current PC I was not a streamer and power standards for Graphics cards were only normal insane. Now I am a streamer and might need a larger tier GPU and power standards are ABSURD. I thought this completely overspecced small form factor PSU would last me decades but it seems I might have to replace it now. What a time to be alive.

Corsair SF Series, SF750, 750 Watt, SFX, 80+ Platinum Certified

A cheap boom arm with basically no carrying capacity so basically just right to hold your phone you might need an adapter to fit the ball joint and phone holder clamp here.

InnoGear Microphone Arm

Combine this with the other ZWILLING HENCKELS knifes and you are set baby!

ZWILLING HENCKELS Classic Bread Knife, 7-inch, Black

This one wasn't really what I was looking for in Pomegranate flavor. Its very sugary and sweet and doesn't have the classic pomegranate acid to it. If you like that kind of stuff be sure to give it a try.

Blueberry Pomegranate

Slim version of the NF-A12x25. I replaced the stock fan on a Big Shuriken 2 CPU cooler with this for better more silent operation.

Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM

For your Facial Tracking Phone. They are very handy you might need adapters to fix them to a cheap boom arm of choice. Get whatever brand you like I think Elgato also makes a fancy one.

Universal Cell Phone Tripod Mount Adapter

good quality basic kitchen knife with french profile plus a petty knife. This is all a regular home kitchen should need next to maybe a decent bread knife.

ZWILLING J.A. Henckels Professional S 2-Piece Chef's Set

First of all yes it does glow in the dark. Also good volume for the thirsty among us. amogus

Glow-in-the-Dark Slime Stretch 25oz Shaker

Couldn't find this one American amazon so this is form the European one. This mounting kit can be modified to fix the Scythe Big Shuriken 2 to an AM4 Slot. The mounting holes for the screws that go into the cooler plate must be slightly enlarged by drilling them out so they have enough tolerance to fit. Otherwise this kit works very well and applies enough mounting pressure to keep tight.

Noctua NM-AM4 L9aL9i

Needed for the currently best possible facial tracking for both Live2D models and 3D models. Game studios use IPhones for mocap as well. The 13 is mini small and light which makes it more versatile. It takes away less vision from your screen if you fix it in front of you and its easier to put into a head harness for tracking while you move for those kinds of live events.

Apple iPhone 13 Mini, 128GB

If you want to mix cocktails a Boston Shaker is a good place to start. Even Cheap ones provide good results and you can get them with as many or few accessories as you prefer. Just search amazon.

Bartender Kit | 14-Piece Cocktail Shaker Set

ADVANCED.GGs standard model shaker available in many colours. Very solid but maybe a bit too small to provide hydration over long streams.

Stealth Edition Shaker

A out of production cooler that is the best possible heatsink that still fits the fractal design node 202 case. It needs some Jerryrigging to get it to fit a AM4 socket but works amazingly once in place. If you wanna run this case try to find a new old stock of these for sure.

Scythe SCBSK-2100 BIG Shuriken 2 Rev. B CPU Cooler

Learn how to sharpen your knifes. It's critical to not only cooking results but also kitchen safety plus it extends the life of your knifes.

Knife Sharpening Stone Set

When I started out I bought a used somewhat damaged IPhone XS MAX from a shady guy in a parking lot. Don't be like me and almost get stabbed for your VTuber career. The OLED screen of this phone is great for normal use but for VTube Studio there is a high risk of burn in since it will display the same screen for hours on end. If you are an android user and starting out as a VTuber on a budget my recommendation is still to just get the cheapest IPhone X or newer [excluding the SE] you can get your hands on. All that matters is that Face ID functions properly.

Apple iPhone XS Max

Very cool shaker comes with plastic reusable straw. Slightly insulated with an air gap between the outer layer of plastic and the drink. Very good to use not just for boba.

Bubble Tea Cup

A solid Processor for its era. Obviously its outmatched by the newer ryzen zen3 offerings but its ok for medium load tasks. I do feel it is a bit underpowered for running all of the VTubing related software plus some more demanding games. Just running OBS with all the bells and whistles plus a chatbot and VTube Studio will take about 40% off this things Capacity. I did really underestimated how powerful a streaming PC really has to be to avoid issues.

AMD Ryzen 5 3600

Great keyboard with a good selection of switches available. Corsair owns Elgato now so it is integrated with streamdeck. The left silver buttons can be programmed to do streamdeck commands.

Corsair K95 RGB Platinum XT

Good quality kitchen Shears. Extremely useful, if you haven't had kitchen sears before just pick them up they aren't even that expensive.

Victorinox 7.6363-X4 Kitchen Shear, 4-Inch, Black

I used these to cool my GPU. Very silent fan with a great balance between static pressure and airflow. If you pay more for the black version you are a chump.

Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM

The entirety of Ikeas Korken Jar line is great. Cheap jars you can always get more of the exact same model. Don't buy them from amazon obviously but I recommend storing spices and non perishables in them to keep insects out and prevent spices from losing their fragrance.

Ikea Korken

This is the keyboard I used to have. It's also available without the RGB and with several switch options. Its solid for the extremely cheap price but just too loud for a streaming setup using blue switches.

Redragon K552 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

The GPU I still run on. It is showing its age but this card was so overspecced for its time it actually kinda holds up for the most part. If you do stream graphically demanding games and stack a ton of VTuber software I would not recommend it though.
I got this one cheap with a broken fan so I replaced the stock fan assembly with two 120mm Noctua fans.

ASUS ROG-STRIX-GTX1080TI-O11G-GAMING

Great Mouse with tons of features and macro buttons which you will lean to value as a streamer. 

Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite

Probably the most reasonable high end rice cooker. In most households this does everything needed for perfect rice every time.

Zojirushi, Made in Japan Neuro Fuzzy Rice Cooker, 5.5-Cup, Premium White

Very good quality RAM that can usually run much better than speccs suggest. 3000mhz for DDR4 is about the sweet spot necessary to not bottleneck your Ryzen CPU.

Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 3000 MHz DDR4 DRAM

My old mouse prior to having the Scimitar. Very solid basic mouse. No frills but also no problems.

Logitech G203 Prodigy RGB

I'ma be real with you its expensive as fuck but the rice this thing makes is the most baller white stuff of all time. Beats cocaine.

Zojirushi NP-NWC10XB Pressure Induction Heating Rice Cooker

Motherboard with solid power delivery and feature set for the mini-ITX form factor. Not much of an option these days but it was the best possible board I could purchase with the Ryzen 5 3600.

MSI B450i GAMING PLUS AC

The original first party xbox one controller plus cable. Yes its expensive but its guaranteed compatibility to the most PC games and emulators possible with no battery life issues. You don't wanna have to charge a wireless controller in mid stream trust me.

Xbox Controller + Cable

In my opinion the best coffee machine engineered for home use. If you are some advanced coffee alchemist and tinkering with vacuum coffee or similar it wont satisfy your lust for caffeinated perfection but it makes really good expresso if configured well.

Breville Barista Express BES870XL

Fix this to a cheap boom arm and a phone clamp adapter. gives better positioning ability than those premade phone clamp boom arms. You will need an adapter for the boom arm to connect to this. also very handy for VR Lighthouse base stations if you wanna wall mount them. They are strong enough to also be sued with your microphone if you need better positioning there.

UTEBIT Ball Head with 1/4"

For most households this will do everything you want a stand mixer to EVER do. Make pasta, bread, froth eggs or cream. You name it. Build quality is also very convincing. 

Kitchenaid Artisan Mini Plus 3.5-Qt

There are certain screws in your setup that you really don't wanna come lose. Just use it and thank yourself later

Loctite Blue Medium Strength Threadlocker

A mini fridge for under your desk is absolutely based for long streams on hot summer days. Couldn't find the exact model I have. You might also wanna consider one without a window for better energy efficiency.

Mini Beverage Fridge

Solves the cold drink problem. You will have cool refreshments for hours while you stream at a reasonable price. Maybe consider a larger capacity if you stream long hours.

THERMOS Insulated Travel Tumbler, 16 Ounce

Solves the hot drink problem. Really provides perfect temperature coffee for hours while you stream but at what price?

Ember Smart Mug 2, 14 oz

Got this one when I bought the Tablet used off the previous owner. It is super handy for 3D modelling. I don't do that stuff a lot anymore but if you so its a no brainer.

Wacom Pro Pen 3D - KP505

I got this when I bought the tablet used off some dude. Its a decent pen with a more traditional feel but I prefer the good old grip pen.

Wacom Art Pen (KP701E2)

Smudge guard is the original drawing glove. You can get them with two or one finger span and in different colors and sizes. on a budget a cheaper one will do and many screen tablets come packaged with a glove these days but if you don't have one you can't go wrong with this one.

SmudgeGuard2

Stand for the Cintiq Pro 24. Look at that price dude. Its not really worth getting but damn is it nice to use.

Wacom Ergo Stand, Cintiq Pro 24

My Drawing tablet. There is a touch and non touch version. The touch sucks don't get it. It actually makes the thing worse. In fact don't get this at all it's way to expensive but damn does the drawing on it feel good.

Wacom DTK2420K0 Cintiq Pro 24

XLR is an analog signal so cable quality matters and good XLR cables are expensive. It does not have to be this one just read some reviews get what you can afford.

Mogami Gold STUDIO-03 XLR Microphone Cable

There is a lot of alternatives but in my opinion this is still the best all in one solution a streamer can use for audio routing plus XLR interface functionality. If you wanna save a buck the mini version comes with the same routing features minus the soundboard and voice changer dohickys but you also lose the motorized faders which are actually incredibly useful. the motofaders let you switch between profiles which allows you to control more than 4 channels effortlessly.

TC-Helicon GO XLR

ITS FREE! Equalizer APO is a software that provides EQ by tweaking your sound driver which allows it to generate absolutely 0 delay in sound. It's very well liked with audiophiles using it to tweak their listening experience but its also great to EQ your stream microphone. You will need a user interface on top of this for ease of use. I recommend PEACE. 

Equalizer APO

My current pair of stream Headphones. Very nice headphones with fun sound profile. Easily replaceable standard cable. comfortable but maybe a slight bit heavy. The issue with them is that they are half open and do bleed a fair bit of audio that might be picked up by your microphone. Maybe give these a pass if you run a condenser mic otherwise amazing. There is a "successor" product but those cans have nothing to do with these in reality and are a completely different experience.

Philips Audio Fidelio X2HR

I had these prior to the Fidelio. Very nice planar magnetic drivers for the price. Great visual design and good sound plus very comfortable around the ears. They bleed sound like nobody's business though being completely open so a bit of an issue with streaming especially with condenser microphones. the cable is also non-standard and fairly hard to get in some parts of the world. Still a good buy if the downsides are irrelevant to you.

HIFIMAN HE4XX Planar Magnetic Over-ear Open-back Headphones

I had these for a long time. Very comfortable with incredible sound stage. A bit cumbersome with extremely long cable and large 6.35mm jack. There is a updated version with removeable cable in the K72 if you wanna try them. They are a classic for a reason. Also bleed a ton of sound so maybe don't use them in combination with condenser microphones.

AKG K 701

The boom arm I use for my actual microphone. Not a scissor design but very stable, has cable channels and above average reach. Expensive but holds mics too heavy for discount boom arms with no issue.

Blue Compass III

Still my current Microphone. With some EQ it is possible to achieve shockingly good audio for a all in one USB microphone solution. Also comes with extremely helpful software for audio control. The WaveLink software provides VST2 and VST3 support which can provide EQ. All in all definitely my #1 recommendation for any beginner streamer. Could also work great for an all in one mic/routing solution for a streaming setup while traveling.

Elgato Wave:3

3Dio FS XLR (FSXLR-2W-002)

Mixer and audio interface hybrid that can connect the 3Dio to your PC and have 48V phantom power provided. The first two channels have compression built in which is also handy. This mixer/interface could also be used to run a 2 PC streaming setup pretty successfully but lacks notable quality of life features for it. In a pinch or on a budget it's good to know it's an option though.

YAMAHA MG10XU

If you have a switch model older than the OLED one it wont have a Ethernet port. Those consoles have a single USB 3.0 port on the back which you can use for an ethernet adapter. The issue is the switch only has drivers for adapters that uses the same kind of chipset as the official nintendo one so you gotta go case by case. The amazon basics one for example will not be recognized. I personally own a UGREEN one and it worked perfectly.

UGREEN USB 3.0 to Ethernet Adapter Gigabit Network Adapter

If you stream long hours from your switch you need to have it in the dock which will murder your Joycon battery. This thing eliminates any time restrictions you have on your stream cause of this extremely annoying issue. If you do switch streams and have the money to spend get it or a cheaper alternative controller. It can be made to work with steam games but is not natively supported by windows as their own Xbox brand one is. Even within steam the button layouts on some games can be wonky. Keep that in mind if you consider this one as your main overall controller.

Switch Pro Controller

I actually own the Animal Crossing Limited Edition but just honestly buy the newer revision if you got the cash or go used otherwise. The switch is probably the best console of its generation for a streamer to own if you could only choose one. The extremely high amount of exclusives opens up a lot of possibilities you would otherwise miss out on. 

Nintendo Switch

The Capture card I use right now. Solid feature set and resolution Support plus very low latency in comparison to other options makes for a great capture card for live content.

AVerMedia GC553 Live Gamer Ultra

I have two of these and I cannot express how important it is to streamline your streaming experience. Having control of every aspect of your stream and your fingertips lets you focus on performing and elevates the quality of your content. If you can, get these if not at least try one of the alternative apps for touchscreen tablets.
