00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.720
do you remember the last time you used a cookie cutter to make treats for your

00:00:03.679 --> 00:00:10.440
weekly techwiki viewing party well even if that was for a

00:00:08.360 --> 00:00:14.440
different occasion odds are that your cookies came out looking slightly

00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:19.199
different no matter how identical you tried to make them this is the same

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:23.039
concept behind binning a term used by the manufacturing industry to sort

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:27.320
things like for instance processors and memory modules by quality once they're

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:31.720
manufactured you see although manufacturing processes for computer

00:00:29.279 --> 00:00:36.120
chips are extremely precise there's going to be some variation between them

00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:40.800
due to the intricacies involved in fabricating such tiny complicated

00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:44.879
components for example a CPU with a certain microarchitecture which you can

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:49.360
learn more about in this video up here will have targets for performance power

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:54.359
management and thermal output all set by the manufacturer if a certain sample

00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:59.559
hits these targets it will be bined at a higher quality and end up being sold as

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:04.640
a higher-end product but if it falls short it will end up being a more value

00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:08.640
oriented product multi-core CPUs illustrate this very well let's say you

00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:13.240
have a core I3 from Intel sitting in your rig right now although it's a dual

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:18.360
core processor the actual die might have actually been four cores if a chip has a

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:22.720
core that isn't up to par but has others that function as intended the defective

00:01:20.360 --> 00:01:27.320
cores can be disabled and the chips sold at a lower tier so that I3 in your

00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:31.360
machine could have actually been an i5 but some small thing went wrong in the

00:01:29.240 --> 00:01:36.000
factory on the other hand the highest bin consumer grade Intel CPUs often

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:40.399
become the unlocked K series chips marketed to overclockers as these are

00:01:38.399 --> 00:01:44.119
typically the ones that perform the best without having to crank the voltage way

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:48.079
high or putting out an insane amount of heat even so due to the minute

00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:52.759
differences between individual processors overclocking results will

00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:57.320
vary between even favorably bended unlocked chips the so-called silicon

00:01:55.479 --> 00:02:02.039
Lottery you hear Enthusiast talking about the same concept also appears in

00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:05.759
graphics cards as well often times when there's a new GPU release that isn't

00:02:03.759 --> 00:02:10.160
something on the extremely high end you'll see a review that says it has the

00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:15.080
same GPU as a more expensive model but with X number of compute units disabled

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:19.200
this is often due to binning where a GPU might have a block of compute units that

00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:25.760
don't make the cut quality-wise so they're disabled instead and sold as a

00:02:21.640 --> 00:02:27.519
say GTX 950 instead of 960 so hold on a

00:02:25.760 --> 00:02:31.800
second you're telling me that I can turn on extra cores that might be hiding on

00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:36.800
my CPU or GPU and get some free performance if I slap on a better cooler

00:02:34.160 --> 00:02:41.720
or something right unfortunately no that party has kind of ended years ago it was

00:02:39.720 --> 00:02:45.560
more commonly possible on certain products through some BIOS trickery or

00:02:43.720 --> 00:02:49.640
maybe a firmware update here or there but these days most major manufacturers

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:53.959
physically disable the connections between inactive cores and the rest of

00:02:51.640 --> 00:02:58.480
the processing unit so they can't be used at all by consumers but even so

00:02:56.959 --> 00:03:02.480
don't feel bad if you bought a lower Bend chip just remember remember that

00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:06.680
you saved an innocent CPU from being melted down for gold and silicon and

00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:11.519
didn't even have to make a monthly donation because you saw a depressing TV

00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:14.760
commercial tunnel bear VPN lets you connect to 20 different countries

00:03:13.239 --> 00:03:19.519
allowing you to browse the internet and use online services as if you're in said

00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:24.280
different country they have an easy to use app for iOS Android PC and mac and

00:03:22.440 --> 00:03:28.040
they even have a Chrome extension if you just want to have like one thing going

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:32.680
in that country and not everything just choose a country in the app turn tunnel

00:03:29.959 --> 00:03:36.200
bear on and watch as your bear tunnels your internet connection to a new

00:03:34.239 --> 00:03:39.680
location when you turn tunnel bear on two things happen your connection gets

00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:44.879
encrypted with AES 256bit which is awesome and your public

00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:48.280
IP address gets switched so you can show up as if you're in a different country

00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.519
like I just said you can try out tunnel bear VPN with 500 megabytes of free data

00:03:50.760 --> 00:03:57.200
with no credit card required and if you want to upgrade to unlimited data you

00:03:54.040 --> 00:03:59.280
can save 10% by going to Tunnel bear.com

00:03:57.200 --> 00:04:03.439
Linus if you like the video like it if you dislike the video dislike it comment

00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:06.680
down below if there's like stuff you want us to cover someone released a

00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:10.879
really good comment recently that had like four different things that we haven't covered yet that were great

00:04:09.040 --> 00:04:14.280
ideas so we're probably going to do those don't forget to subscribe and

00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:18.280
check with Channel Super Fun we do like weird stuff this Probably sounds

00:04:16.359 --> 00:04:22.400
horrible in the mic and there's like things bouncing off of me and it's bad

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:29.479
but if you didn't like that sound you should go there don't know how that works go there

00:04:26.479 --> 00:04:29.479
anyways
