WEBVTT 00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:07.839 can that be right has it really been almost 3 years since we filmed whole 00:00:05.600 --> 00:00:11.519 room water cooling where we upgraded all our editing 00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:16.800 workstations that means we've been using the same base editing workstations for 00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:20.560 almost 3 years I mean they've served us well six Core Extreme editions 32 gigs 00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:26.359 of RAM Titan graphics cards all that good stuff but come on baby it's 00:00:23.240 --> 00:00:28.720 2017 it's time for an upgrade so we're 00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:35.160 going to be moving to the latest 10 Core Extreme editions and perhaps even more 00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:37.480 importantly RGB and to help me I have 00:00:35.160 --> 00:00:42.559 enlisted a very special guest my favorite Soviet Canadian Ivan who is 00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:46.960 going to be helping me perform these upgrades in place with the goal being to 00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:52.239 hot swap everybody's editing workstations so we lose almost no 00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:54.320 productivity will it work probably not 00:00:52.239 --> 00:00:58.920 so if we miss any uploads you'll know what happened but darn it we're going to 00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:07.320 do our best let's go 00:01:07.320 --> 00:01:14.759 so this is the part where he finds out why he was brought in today it's a 00:01:12.360 --> 00:01:19.560 buildoff do you have a screwdriver what is that it's a custom made one of course 00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:25.079 it is why did I even ask wow it's really smooth mhm looks 00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:28.799 like it has all kinds of uses mhm I'm sorry I touched 00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:35.320 it all right you only get half of the table don't touch my 00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.720 side don't yell at me don't don't touch my side don't yell at me we're not in 00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.759 the relationship so in terms of motherboard the choice was actually 00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:48.840 pretty straightforward we were looking for something based on ASUS's x99 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:54.920 platform eight sticks of RAM support we needed lots of PCI Express slots and we 00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:57.119 wanted Rock Solid stability so that's 00:01:54.920 --> 00:02:02.280 why we went with this board versus the more advanced one oh right and it has an 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:07.240 RGB header the most important feature in 00:02:05.119 --> 00:02:12.599 terms of processor well as you probably noticed this video was brought to you by 00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:15.120 Intel so if you get to choose whatever 00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:21.760 processor you want in Intel's lineup come on you go with the 00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:27.400 6950x so not only are we getting faster individual cores compared to our 00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:30.400 existing 4960 XS we are actually getting 00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:32.239 four more processing cores so that means 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.680 more multitasking that means better performance as we've measured before in 00:02:34.440 --> 00:02:42.440 the past so if you wanted you could actually check out a video that we did a 00:02:38.480 --> 00:02:45.080 little while ago on um the best possible 00:02:42.440 --> 00:02:49.120 hardware setup for video encoding we get more performance there and we get better 00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:57.200 multitasking chill out man I'm the one who should be russing okay yeah you 00:02:54.120 --> 00:03:02.640 never worked in the office back with 00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:02.640 us you never wanted to oh what did I 00:03:04.200 --> 00:03:10.120 hit okay so what I could do is figure 00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:16.000 out the orientation myself but thanks to the side by-side format of this 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:18.159 buildoff and the respect that I have for 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.400 my competitor I'm just going to jump right in and do it the same way he did 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:26.920 it see he congratulates me for cheating 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.360 isn't he wonderful hey what's all this stuff in 00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:37.120 my pocket I know where lives oh RGB oh oh Advantage Linus 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:41.560 because he didn't spell out all of the Rules of 00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:44.400 Engagement well you're already married get it 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:53.560 gety so in terms of the power supply upgrade here we're actually going from 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:55.280 750 watt 80 plus gold power supplies 00:03:53.560 --> 00:04:02.200 that were semi modular to Corsair's hxi 850w power 00:03:59.799 --> 00:04:07.120 supplies one of the big advantages here is that the fan itself actually turns 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:12.159 off when it's not under a heavy load which means that these systems will be 00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:13.599 extremely quiet at least acoustically 00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:16.680 they're going to be RGB so they're going to be their own flavor of 00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:25.080 loud did you put in all four screws on the uh radiator or all eight rather yes 00:04:21.880 --> 00:04:27.560 sir oh man why you do this because you 00:04:25.080 --> 00:04:33.600 taught me that way Ian do not do half job ever wow 00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:36.360 oh oh you know what you may have made a 00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:41.720 mistake though your RGB fans will not be visible from the 00:04:37.919 --> 00:04:41.720 outside then I might have made a 00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:48.919 mistake since uh this is the only thing that's going to be lighting up the 00:04:46.039 --> 00:04:52.680 inside of the case I actually do stick with my decision because then at least 00:04:50.280 --> 00:04:55.960 we'll have the inside of the case lit somehow as opposed to only having it 00:04:54.720 --> 00:05:01.639 coming from the front fence which are kind of further to the front arbitrary 00:04:57.840 --> 00:05:01.639 rules are also arbit 00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:07.759 AR it's like you can't install the motherboard until you install the AO you 00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:14.320 can't install the AO until you install the fans you can't install the fans until you install the we got to create 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:18.639 that fake uh like that fake cooking show tension where's the 00:05:16.479 --> 00:05:23.680 salt see this is what I love about modern cases that have the the middle 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:28.400 kind of nubin thing going on there so you can actually 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:30.080 mount a motherboard and it'll stay in 00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:33.720 place well enough for you put in the rest of the motherboard 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:36.840 screws while you look for the motherboard screws where are my 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:41.720 motherboard screws oh thank 00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:45.160 you a 00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:52.160 shoot novice mistake man I got my IO 00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:54.280 Shield stuck on one of my ports so I 00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:59.240 have to pull the board out fortunately I've only put in one screw no washer is 00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:04.440 on the ID either no you don't need washers on on the 00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:08.919 radiator warps the metal if you 00:06:04.440 --> 00:06:11.280 don't I oh come on it's 00:06:08.919 --> 00:06:16.120 fine now I have to flip my radiator orientation cuz I think my two hose will 00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:19.720 collide with a your friend I always run into trouble with my hose 00:06:18.080 --> 00:06:23.680 colliding holla that's okay we've got lots of 00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:27.759 clean terrible humor we don't need the dirty terrible 00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:31.720 humor is that a SATA cable in your pocket you're just happy to see me 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:35.080 well if I was happy it wouldn't be very happy look at this thing 00:06:35.599 --> 00:06:44.680 yeah it's even a little weenie one like weeny like eenie weeny but also 00:06:41.400 --> 00:06:47.319 like a penis okay this is a trick that I 00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:52.560 use but never recommend where you just kind of line it up on the pins and then 00:06:50.400 --> 00:07:01.280 you use a screwdriver to jam it on if you slip you hit your motherboard with a 00:06:57.039 --> 00:07:04.479 screwdriver yeah the build off's done I 00:07:01.280 --> 00:07:06.440 won by 10 minutes but given that he's 00:07:04.479 --> 00:07:11.080 never built in the case before I'd say that's kind of within you know margin of 00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:15.080 error so it's going to come down to which build you guys ultimately think is 00:07:12.919 --> 00:07:19.720 better Ivan took a different approach to the cabling at the back a different 00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:24.440 approach to the cabling at the front and opted to put the fans on the inside to 00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:31.280 illuminate the motherboard area rather than on the outside and as for me I have 00:07:28.440 --> 00:07:35.639 my 24 four pin cable going up the cable management run I have my uh my drive 00:07:34.080 --> 00:07:39.720 cable really not looking as good back there I don't think I did as good a job 00:07:37.120 --> 00:07:43.879 of these cables but I've got my Thunderbolt 3 card installed so bonus 00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:49.800 points for that they're all supposed to have Thunderbolt 3 and 10 gig Lan and 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:55.360 I've got my fans visible from the top here so that I can have like dope 00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:57.400 animated lighting effects like that of 00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:01.520 course we had to build six of these systems and Ian did the other four and 00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:04.319 he figures this is what he calls the final form so what did you do 00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:07.919 differently on this one right well starting from the front I took a 00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:11.680 extremely neat approach to the bottom part of the cabling see how everything 00:08:09.599 --> 00:08:16.360 snakes around and is barely visible except for this little Rainbow piece 00:08:12.960 --> 00:08:19.560 over here uh the other thing is that I 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:21.360 actually found where to tuck away all of 00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:26.080 the extra cables there's a cavity up here here so as you can see the backside 00:08:23.520 --> 00:08:30.360 is very clean and finally I managed to stick all of the thicker cables behind 00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:35.599 this protective sheath and even cleaned up the bottom a little bit still not 00:08:32.959 --> 00:08:39.479 perfectly happy with the result but that's the key a clean backside all 00:08:37.880 --> 00:08:43.839 right so uh of course you guys aren't here just 00:08:41.719 --> 00:08:48.519 for that but also performance so we tested these systems a couple of 00:08:45.680 --> 00:08:53.959 different ways first with the RGB lighting mostly disabled the RAM's still 00:08:50.640 --> 00:08:55.399 on but all the fans off so we could get 00:08:53.959 --> 00:09:00.200 a baseline for how much of an improvement we were looking at over our 00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:05.120 previous systems and as you guys can see it is pretty freaking huge whether we're 00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:11.560 talking cine bench whether we're talking Adobe Media encoder going from six to 10 00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:14.839 cores and faster cores with upgraded 00:09:11.560 --> 00:09:17.920 Graphics is a massive 00:09:14.839 --> 00:09:21.320 difference but and that's without RGB 00:09:17.920 --> 00:09:24.040 flare so my system here was actually 00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:29.920 tested a little bit differently we turned on the RGB lighting with some 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:36.440 animations and overclocked the CPU to 4.2 GHz one of which we're not sure if 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:39.880 it was the RGB or the overclock allowed 00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:42.519 us to achieve simply mindboggling 00:09:39.880 --> 00:09:47.760 performance it actually feels like this is an upgrade over the three-year-old 00:09:44.880 --> 00:09:54.440 systems in everything from video editing to heavy multitasking to even gaming so 00:09:52.640 --> 00:09:59.440 when it comes to the red footage that we're working on now that we can swap 00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:04.680 everybody's systems out now we're looking at definite real usability 00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:08.720 improvements over the old systems things like timeline scrubbing are going to be 00:10:06.680 --> 00:10:13.079 much faster on these systems than they were on the old ones and I think that 00:10:11.160 --> 00:10:18.760 pretty much wraps it up thank you guys for coming along on this wild and 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:22.480 hopefully entertaining ride thank you to 00:10:18.760 --> 00:10:24.560 Intel ASUS and Corsair for hooking us up 00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:30.480 with what we think are pretty much the most ba editing workstations on the 00:10:27.959 --> 00:10:35.800 planet and thanks to you guys for watching see you next time oh yeah and 00:10:33.079 --> 00:10:39.839 thanks to Ivan for being here and being productive and that 00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:42.519 too so thanks for watching guys if you dislike this video you know where that 00:10:41.079 --> 00:10:46.920 button is but if you liked it hit that like button get subscribed maybe
