00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.000
guys we're down in los angeles sponsored by micro center and this is the most fun

00:00:03.679 --> 00:00:10.960
i've had doing a video in quite some time on the surface the challenge is

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:18.080
very simple build a super fast gaming rig with Intel's brand new core i9 9900

00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:20.320
ks five gigahertz eight core processor

00:00:18.080 --> 00:00:25.840
i could do that in my sleep they have everything here diy systems pre-builds

00:00:23.439 --> 00:00:30.080
audio networking stem gaming gear every cable you can imagine

00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:34.559
i even found this dummy's guide to office xp

00:00:31.439 --> 00:00:37.760
but there's a small problem i have to

00:00:34.559 --> 00:00:40.399
sell the computer that i build today

00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:44.320
the store closes in 6 hours and 15 minutes

00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:46.879
and i haven't even started yet we better

00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.879
get to it

00:00:55.760 --> 00:01:03.280
all right so item one is obviously our 9900 ks processor but because this

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:08.080
technically hasn't launched yet we're going to keep it inside his box as

00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:11.600
we continue to shop i was pretty impressed with the last

00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:16.560
ASUS case that i checked out let's go with a tough gaming gt501

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:20.400
boom i'd love to go full custom water cooling

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:28.000
but i really don't think we have enough time so we're gonna settle for an h150i pro

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:29.520
RGB settle

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.360
seeing all the options they have here though really does make me want to go

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:36.720
custom i was eavesdropping on someone earlier and i heard one of the sales

00:01:34.880 --> 00:01:40.400
reps talking about their own custom loop at home and advising someone like how to

00:01:38.960 --> 00:01:44.799
build it and i tell you i would have given anything for a single sales rep in

00:01:43.119 --> 00:01:49.600
our company that knowledgeable back when i was the water cooling pm at ncix

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:52.320
do we go formula or hero i mean micro center's footing the bill

00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:57.360
but then we don't really need the integrated custom water cooling stuff

00:01:54.399 --> 00:01:57.360
let's go with this one

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:01.200
time for some RGB

00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.399
we're not going to be able to sell a system without RGB

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:13.040
man the temptation there is to go two terabyte but you know what

00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.440
i think we're gonna go 970 evo plus one terabyte

00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:19.120
and then we're gonna throw in a hard drive for our steam library

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:24.080
i'm having fun today i'm just not even looking at the price tags

00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:28.800
technically i do have a price limit on this but i was like well you know if

00:02:26.720 --> 00:02:32.480
it's like a really great video you know can we push it a bit and they're like i

00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:39.200
guess i'll take that as a yes let's go with the supernova 850 g3 look at that it's

00:02:36.640 --> 00:02:44.800
got a nice little spot for it there that's your power supply shelf all right

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:48.160
got a fully featured shopping cart here

00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:51.440
there's so many options and yet

00:02:48.160 --> 00:02:52.720
only one true choice g skill trident z

00:02:51.440 --> 00:02:57.440
royal if you're gonna do a flashy build

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.519
make it flashy okay so now it's graphics card time but

00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:05.840
we're presented with a difficult choice there's two 20 80 ti stricts on the

00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:11.760
shelf now if there was only one then obviously i would just get one but let

00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:11.760
me just see how's our budget doing here

00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:19.319
i think we can fit two we're gonna need a bigger power supply

00:03:21.519 --> 00:03:29.200
sorry 850 g3 you were probably good enough but

00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:29.200
we're stepping up

00:03:30.799 --> 00:03:36.480
and an envy link sli bridge

00:03:34.640 --> 00:03:41.760
all right here we are it's all wrung up ladies and gentlemen

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:45.640
look at this receipt and by the way

00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:49.360
did we ever nail it after taxes

00:03:45.640 --> 00:03:50.959
5062 dollars and 52 cents and that's

00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:56.480
with nod 32 gamer antivirus and our copy of

00:03:54.879 --> 00:04:01.360
Windows 10. let's build a machine shall we

00:03:58.640 --> 00:04:04.159
all right so let's get everything we need loaded up

00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:10.959
here RAM NVMe SSD

00:04:07.920 --> 00:04:10.959
secret sauce

00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:18.239
i gotta say man they have an awesome tech room here this place is absolutely

00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:22.160
incredible i've complained before about how america gets all the cool stuff but

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:26.720
they have 25 of these micro center locations and i don't think in the

00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:34.160
entire country we have a single store that is anything like this here we go

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:36.560
core i9 special edition

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:42.160
this is as fast as it gets in Intel's lineup five gigahertz all-core turbo

00:04:39.919 --> 00:04:46.000
so funny story i have never actually opened one of these because

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:49.280
all my chips are engineering samples and they don't come in a cool package

00:04:50.960 --> 00:04:59.040
so that explains it the s is for special man i can't believe we're building this

00:04:55.199 --> 00:05:01.280
right now this is without any asterisks

00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:04.880
the fastest gaming machine you can build out of off-the-shelf parts okay one

00:05:03.520 --> 00:05:11.600
asterisk i guess you could put higher speed memory in it or something like that small differences though okay

00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:16.400
minor minor things imagine you broke it

00:05:14.479 --> 00:05:19.440
i gotta say after the latest reliability data from puget systems there's not much

00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:23.880
to tempt me to other SSD manufacturers

00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:32.479
it's time for david's favorite RAM my camera guy is not a fan of the tried

00:05:29.280 --> 00:05:36.000
and zero but you know what

00:05:32.479 --> 00:05:37.600
peel tasmic

00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:41.840
all right so that's pretty good we can put that aside grab our case

00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:44.639
so down here at the bottom that's where we're gonna put our hard drive we might

00:05:43.520 --> 00:05:50.160
as well just get that out of the way right now we went with a six terabyte barracuda

00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:54.320
because that was the closest thing to me on the shelf

00:05:52.880 --> 00:05:59.440
look i don't make the rules the hard drive's hard drive baby all right now i

00:05:56.479 --> 00:06:03.199
suspect they go in this way and

00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:07.360
the holes do not line up so let's try the other way and now they

00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:11.520
do now it's time for our power supply

00:06:09.919 --> 00:06:16.560
all right there it is 140 mil fan modular interface nice short

00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:20.080
unit this case is raised nice and high off the table or the floor or wherever

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:23.360
it gets put and it's got a nice little filtered intake down here so i'm gonna

00:06:21.520 --> 00:06:26.800
go ahead i'm gonna put my fan down so it's drawing nice fresh air from

00:06:25.440 --> 00:06:30.560
the outside and then exhausting it right out the back of the case i gotta say one

00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:34.639
thing that kind of sucks about doing a build for an actual customer for a

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:38.479
change is that i can't cheap out and just put in like half of the screws

00:06:38.880 --> 00:06:44.720
radiator time ladies and gentlemen we're going for a pull configuration

00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:48.479
that way our RGB fans will be visible from inside our window the front of the

00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:52.160
case is solid anyway so there was no point having it show there the wiring at

00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:57.039
the back is going to be pretty messy regardless i think

00:06:55.039 --> 00:07:01.680
this is not really a normal build order for me going from it looking very very

00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:05.199
incomplete to nine screws later and the system looks

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:10.960
almost done because i had left the motherboard out for so long so now

00:07:08.080 --> 00:07:15.599
we can wire some shiz up here there's our pci express ah

00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:21.520
SATA for our hard drive man there is a lot of friggin wiring

00:07:18.960 --> 00:07:25.919
there it is in the handful of games that support it

00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:31.120
this rig is going to have more graphics horsepower than

00:07:28.960 --> 00:07:33.360
any other and

00:07:33.599 --> 00:07:40.080
a one and GPU

00:07:37.520 --> 00:07:44.479
number two okay

00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:46.479
so the time is now 20 after five

00:07:44.479 --> 00:07:50.960
which means we've only got three and a half hours to sell this thing but

00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:53.840
there's no way that i cannot do at least a little bit of cable management back

00:07:52.400 --> 00:07:57.919
here so we're gonna do that up now

00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:02.720
we're really up against our time limit here all right

00:08:01.039 --> 00:08:05.360
we're calling that good enough

00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:13.120
i hear water moving i see RGB

00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:15.360
i want to see a post though yeah okay where's my delete

00:08:14.479 --> 00:08:21.120
okay there it is everything showing up as expected

00:08:19.599 --> 00:08:25.360
now all we need to do is get Windows installed okay so now that the system works one of

00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:31.759
the techs here is getting all the drivers loaded and software installed and all that good stuff so we're going

00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:32.880
to scout out our best location to plant

00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:39.120
the system so one option would be to throw it right in between a couple of micro center zone

00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:42.959
power spec lineup of uh gaming machines like maybe like kind of here

00:08:40.800 --> 00:08:45.519
another option would be to set it up right here

00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:50.240
in the entrance so that anyone who walks in the door

00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:54.399
it's the first thing they see one cool idea we had was to set it up with the

00:08:51.839 --> 00:08:57.680
printers and kind of like ancient technology land

00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:02.399
before we can put it out on the floor though we need to set a price now

00:08:59.920 --> 00:09:07.040
our cost on the system before taxes is around 4 600 but

00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:11.200
we don't have a lot of time to sell this thing so

00:09:08.640 --> 00:09:16.480
thinking we make ourselves up uh our very own price tag here

00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.480
we go like uh

00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:22.480
you know what we're in a pretty big hurry

00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:26.800
how about that thing is i don't want the first person

00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:31.200
who walks up to this thing to have it stand out to them and for them to go oh

00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:35.519
there we go i want this to be a reward for the observant shopper

00:09:33.680 --> 00:09:41.200
fortunately our boy cody who's been helping us out with the video today has

00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:42.560
got us covered check this out super

00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:47.519
professional got all our specs in here that says k

00:09:45.839 --> 00:09:51.279
long story it doesn't exist in their system yet don't worry about it oh what

00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:55.040
the apparently it includes a picture with me

00:09:53.040 --> 00:10:00.000
but anyway we still do have a small problem in here that

00:09:57.040 --> 00:10:03.360
is not very convincing like if i do well i don't know we can try but the

00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:07.360
spacing's kind of funny fortunately we have an idea if we take some duplicate

00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:12.160
price tags and cut out the letters and repaste them maybe we can get it looking

00:10:10.160 --> 00:10:16.880
a plus professional here need some scissors it's time for arts and crafts

00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:20.800
now unfortunately for my arts and crafts endeavor here they didn't have any glue

00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:26.240
sticks on hand so we're going to

00:10:23.920 --> 00:10:32.720
just kind of use some clear tape to cover up that nine

00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:35.519
then we're gonna move our nine right there

00:10:33.680 --> 00:10:38.000
i am having too much fun this has been a blast

00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:45.560
1999. that looks pretty good it does look pretty good there it is

00:10:47.040 --> 00:10:53.920
yeah that seems like a good price we run into a snag remember how i said

00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:58.480
their system couldn't process our imaginary sku well they have no way to

00:10:56.399 --> 00:11:05.320
sell it but that's okay because we are going to make

00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.320
our very own store

00:11:24.560 --> 00:11:30.240
okay so we gave the system to cody and he's heading back to the pre-built

00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:34.079
systems area to set it up but there have been a handful of people coming into the

00:11:31.920 --> 00:11:38.959
micro center who have like recognized me and wondered what we're doing here so

00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:49.669
i'm like trying to lose them you know trying to get them off my tail

00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:10.079
okay we made it all the way to the dead memes

00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:15.680
aisle and i don't think we've been followed

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:22.000
okay so cody just put the price tag on

00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:23.600
and now we play the waiting game

00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:27.440
i'm gonna be trying to keep an eye on it from afar

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:32.720
all without catching any customers on my camera here unfortunately we're here on

00:12:29.680 --> 00:12:33.600
a monday evening which is not exactly

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:37.360
their busiest time

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:42.880
you've got to be kidding me there's two girls down there that walked

00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:46.800
past it looked right at it and then it looked like they were going

00:12:44.079 --> 00:12:50.079
to do another lap fly by again didn't go for it

00:12:48.959 --> 00:12:53.639
wait a minute they are oh we're just supposed to

00:12:56.959 --> 00:13:04.480
i think she's figured it out but you should probably go in there

00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:08.880
it's a pretty weird deal that it's 20. yeah i thought i was reading that wrong

00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:14.000
what do you think i think it's pretty weird would you guys like me to fill you in on

00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:16.959
what's going on not sure my name's Linus hi nice to meet you i'm sydney i'm a

00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:23.440
youtuber and i built this system earlier today it

00:13:19.920 --> 00:13:25.839
is worth about five thousand us dollars

00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:29.680
retail are you selling it for 20

00:13:28.079 --> 00:13:35.600
i'm just trying to buy a present for my birthday and my brother's birthday

00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:39.600
your brother is getting just about the

00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:39.600
fallenest computer that money can buy

00:13:39.760 --> 00:13:45.360
okay cool can i hug you

00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:49.839
sure thank you what the heck

00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:54.160
you know how long we were standing there waiting for someone to just

00:13:51.839 --> 00:13:57.839
wander by and look just a little bit closely at this thing

00:13:55.839 --> 00:14:00.959
well because i was like oh that can't be right and then i was looking i was like

00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:04.560
oh everything else is like three thousand dollars i was rooting for you

00:14:02.959 --> 00:14:08.160
guys because because i was i was over there i was

00:14:06.160 --> 00:14:12.480
like there's these two girls they did a flyby and i saw them look at it i saw

00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:16.480
them look at it and then they just left and then i

00:14:14.560 --> 00:14:21.440
thought you guys came around this way and then i thought you were going to loop back around and do the double take

00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:26.320
but then i was like no i'm so disappointed they left and i said

00:14:23.760 --> 00:14:29.360

00:14:28.079 --> 00:14:34.320
wrong and i don't feel like asking someone about it don't feel like asking a stupid

00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:34.320
question

00:14:35.680 --> 00:14:42.959
so what's your brother gonna use the computer for uh just gaming as far as i

00:14:40.880 --> 00:14:48.639
know oh shoot that's really awkward because this is not for gaming at all

00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:50.320
don't worry i'm totally

00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:55.440
i can't do that it looks like i gotta go home

00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:59.120
so sorry no no this is this is hands down the fastest gaming machine money

00:14:57.600 --> 00:15:04.160
can buy right now oh my god period

00:15:01.040 --> 00:15:06.560
can't believe my brother's gonna love me

00:15:04.160 --> 00:15:10.240
so micro center actually sponsored this video today is there a reason that you

00:15:08.800 --> 00:15:13.839
chose to walk into micro center this morning out of all the computer stores

00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:18.079
you could go to we just honestly like looked it up and i was like this place

00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:21.360
looks cool and then we went there and it turned out to be like the best

00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:24.560
decision ever does your brother know how to build his

00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:28.639
own computer or was he expecting like a pre-built one no i honestly i don't

00:15:27.519 --> 00:15:33.600
really know he is like very familiar with computers though he's like working on building his

00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:37.680
own i think cool he won't have to anymore so do you want to sound like a

00:15:35.760 --> 00:15:42.480
super knowledgeable older sister that's like laying down okay so i'll i'll show you a

00:15:41.040 --> 00:15:46.639
couple of things you can show them about so come on come on over here so you got

00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:51.839
to tell them that this is a triple fan liquid cooling system

00:15:49.920 --> 00:15:57.199
tell them you made sure you got a k series unlocked processor okay series

00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:04.399
here i'm just going to dictate to it i wasn't sure whether to get a single

00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:06.959
graphics card or two running in sli

00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:11.839
because i know that not all games scale great with multiple gpus

00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:16.079
totally yeah yeah totally of course i know ventilation is extremely important

00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:20.959
for gaming systems so i chose an ASUS tough series case

00:16:18.800 --> 00:16:25.120
and it's got carrying handles as an extra bonus all right so there you go

00:16:23.199 --> 00:16:28.079
