WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.400 We've got a brand new set for ShortCircuit, and that means we need a brand 00:00:03.800 --> 00:00:10.480 new computer. So, we asked Maingear if they could send over some of the most 00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:14.640 top-end hardware available, so that when we're gaming, you know it's as good as 00:00:12.600 --> 00:00:18.960 it's going to get. See? 00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:22.200 Progress. Progress. That's great. 00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:25.640 That's what building computers IS ALL ABOUT. 00:00:24.360 --> 00:00:31.680 GOOD THING WE DON'T HAVE TO SEND THIS BACK. NICE. NICE. That's right. We've got the 00:00:29.560 --> 00:00:35.560 Doom the Dark Ages limited edition computer. And the nicest thing is, if 00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:41.560 you do buy the case from Haven, it's just the Haven 420. However, if you buy 00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:45.200 this specific limited edition case, you will get a couple of things that are 00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:48.920 different from the normal builds. Oh, man. How do I get this out of this? It's 00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:52.920 a 360 mil AIO, and it's also just a lot of high-end components, so it's like 00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:56.880 really heavy. Um, but you can still do this. 00:00:54.120 --> 00:00:56.880 Yeah. 00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:03.200 All right. I actually do really like 00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.640 that even just the Haven HS420 has this really cool uh Doom design on it. So, 00:01:05.880 --> 00:01:11.400 it's not like some, you know, "Oh, I'm buying the HS420, and then it's the Doom 00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:14.880 one." It's like, "No, even your box has the cool Doom stuff on it." I've also 00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:20.040 been playing Doom since the '90s, uh probably before I should have been, to 00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:20.720 be clear. I was just a wee a wee lad. 00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:26.760 Um, but I've been a big fan ever since. I'm not sure if you'll be able to buy this 00:01:23.960 --> 00:01:30.200 by the time the video comes out, but as of time of filming, there are some left 00:01:28.600 --> 00:01:34.320 available, but they're all at Micro Center. So, if you do want this case, I 00:01:33.080 --> 00:01:41.160 guess you're going to Micro Center. This is one green lean machine, and I'm going 00:01:37.320 --> 00:01:42.640 to flip it over. That's one part, and 00:01:41.160 --> 00:01:48.400 then the other Oh, it's going to go right on my head. There we go. 00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:53.440 This also might be a bit of a hot take, but I love Doom 3. I liked how scary it 00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:57.880 was. It was very scary as a kid. Maybe now that we've got this sick machine, 00:01:55.240 --> 00:02:02.160 because oh my god, this thing looks incredible. 00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:06.560 Um, on top of the normal Haven HS420 styling, you've got some nice touches, 00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:09.399 like the Doom symbol here. I actually don't know what that specific 00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.840 symbol means. I don't know if that makes me a fake fan. I don't know 00:02:11.480 --> 00:02:17.120 uh where the symbol originally came from, but uh it's also on our power button. It's also on the side of the box 00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:21.880 there. Um, when I see that symbol, I think Doom. I really don't know the lore 00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:26.040 reason behind it. So, please kill me in the comments. 00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:29.240 Call me a fake fan. But, because HS420 is so easy to take apart, 00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:34.320 we're not going to like tear this whole thing down. I just love how easy it is to take the top off, so that you can 00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:38.040 just like see that we've got a nice 360 mil AIO up here. 00:02:36.640 --> 00:02:40.960 Oh, there's a bunch of stuff in I haven't even seen the insides yet. Okay, 00:02:39.640 --> 00:02:46.280 let's get uh let's get these out. I'm pretty sure you 00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:47.880 got to take this top part off. Oh, yeah. 00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:54.240 Is there a peel or anything? No, no internal peel. They've just got this Maingear decal here, and then this cool 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:56.240 Doom decal here. Woah! That's cool. 00:02:54.240 --> 00:03:00.280 They've got a Doom logo GPU [music] bracket, anti-sag bracket. Looks a 00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:03.440 little 3D printed on the top here, but you know, that's actually pretty easy to 00:03:01.600 --> 00:03:08.040 fix on your own if you really care about seeing some layer lines. 00:03:05.320 --> 00:03:11.320 Let me get this out of out of the way. There's all our pink foam. 00:03:10.160 --> 00:03:16.000 Don't forget the skull. >> What skull? The skull. 00:03:14.160 --> 00:03:18.760 Yo! What is this thing for? So, this what 00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:24.680 this comes with the computer? Yeah, open it up. >> Haven Danger strong magnets. How do 00:03:22.720 --> 00:03:29.840 those work? Woah! What the hell? 00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:34.640 It's a cover for your reservoir. We have an AIO already pre-installed, but if you 00:03:32.160 --> 00:03:37.880 do ever upgrade this with like a big reservoir or something, cuz you do your 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:40.480 own custom loop, which would look pretty cool, cuz you can put some red water in 00:03:39.480 --> 00:03:46.640 there, make it look like blood, whatever. Um, but it'll slot right on top here, reservoir, like this. But, if 00:03:45.040 --> 00:03:51.120 you don't have that, and you've just got the same computer we do, 00:03:48.720 --> 00:03:54.320 it's magnetic. So, you can kind of stick it like just about anywhere, cuz all 00:03:52.920 --> 00:03:58.720 these parts are metal. It'll go there for now. And also, I completely neglected all this other 00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:02.640 stuff, like you've got this other like cool Doom imagery. It's all spooky hell 00:04:00.920 --> 00:04:08.200 stuff. I don't know if this is Latin or not, but kind of looks weird. 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:12.240 So, that's super cool. Oh my god, even around the fans? 00:04:10.320 --> 00:04:17.120 Oh, and then down here it says, "Haven 420 limited edition Doom PC number one." 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:21.640 Did you know they gave us the first one? >> No. We got number [music] one. We are 00:04:19.720 --> 00:04:25.920 number one. Bell kept reading, and he told me that you could also, they say, 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:29.000 put it outside as a headphone hanger, which it looks like it. It totally looks 00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:33.920 like you put a band of headphones right there. Bell doesn't know I'm stealing the skull 00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:40.560 later. Shh. From the 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:44.600 logo on the back to the custom uh top IO 00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:47.200 cover to like the red cables to all the 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:52.000 random Doom script here, and like the neat just color match on the fan, and 00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:56.000 this has got to be probably one of the coolest themed PCs that I've ever 00:04:54.680 --> 00:05:00.360 opened. I haven't opened a lot of them, but uh this is my favorite. You guys haven't 00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:03.800 even seen the back of this thing yet. It still looks so cool from the front. Oh 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:11.760 my god, move again. There is, in fact, an RTX 5090 and a 9950X3D, 00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:14.680 along with 64 gigs of DDR5 running at, I think, 6,000 mega transfers per second. 00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:22.040 So, pretty top of the line. And then we've got a 2 terabyte Gen 4 or Gen 5 NVMe 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:26.600 drive. Either way, plenty fast for gaming. But, as you can see, the red 00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:29.640 cabling has continued along the back here. And I just I don't know, I love 00:05:27.960 --> 00:05:32.680 the style of this case. And I love how the power supply like doesn't take up a 00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:39.680 giant chunk of space in the bottom like it does, but It's apparently 72 lb. 72 00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:42.040 lb? My god. 00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:46.640 Oh, man. I don't know if it's the case or the water or what, but 72 lb is a 00:05:44.200 --> 00:05:51.720 lot. Uh you saw us struggle earlier. If you buy this computer, uh maybe look for 00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:55.200 help in setting it up. Even if you're very alone, hire someone on TaskRabbit 00:05:53.800 --> 00:06:00.040 to come by and give you a hand. There's no shame in that, you know, everyone needs help sometimes. Um, but yeah, like 00:05:58.280 --> 00:06:04.480 even the top with like the power button and the cool uh I think the leather 00:06:02.200 --> 00:06:08.440 strap is always there, but like it really fits with all this. And then the 00:06:05.880 --> 00:06:13.520 custom green uh color, you know, the classic Doom green for 00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:16.160 Doom guy. Man, I just 00:06:13.520 --> 00:06:19.760 I love this thing. I got so excited that I actually forgot that there was uh some 00:06:18.280 --> 00:06:25.560 extras included. These are probably power supply cables. Um, it has a 1250 W 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:30.360 80 plus gold power supply, by the way. So, even with the high-end components, 00:06:27.880 --> 00:06:35.560 it should be totally fine. Uh so, this looks like Yep, extra power supply 00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:39.480 cables. Probably all of them, because it looks like they got replaced by 00:06:37.320 --> 00:06:44.400 something from uh third-party vendor. We've got a nice C13 power cable. 00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:46.880 Maingear sticker. 00:06:44.400 --> 00:06:50.600 We've also got instructions for our CPU cooler, it looks like. Wait, what's 00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:55.400 this? So, with a lot of AMD boards, this was common on AM4 as well. Um, when you 00:06:53.720 --> 00:07:01.320 put a new cooler on, you actually have to remove the stock hardware. And so, 00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.960 they've given that to us, because if you have to RMA this, I mean, you probably 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:09.000 go back through Maingear, but I don't know, they probably want it. I wonder if the socket cover We've got uh all of the 00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:14.320 extra cables that come in our motherboard box, like our SATA data 00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:16.280 cables, uh keycap. 00:07:14.320 --> 00:07:21.000 PG, that's from Hasrock. 00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:22.880 Some RGB cables. And uh what else? This 00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:28.400 is a little Oh, it's like a power switch, but it goes to an antenna? I'm 00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:31.280 not sure. LVPE4 collision de plastique. 00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:34.120 That's not what that's for. Wi-Fi. We're probably going to go wired 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:38.320 directly to Ethernet, but I'm going to plug these in and attach them just in 00:07:36.080 --> 00:07:41.960 case. But, enough about cables. Let's see what this thing looks like powered 00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:47.040 on, after a word from our sponsor. Sharge, their all new IceMag 3 is a 00:07:44.320 --> 00:07:51.760 10,000 mA power bank that supports next-gen Qi2 25 W wireless fast 00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:55.760 charging. For folks that like regular old wire charging, it comes with an 00:07:53.320 --> 00:07:59.640 integrated 35 W USB-C fast charging cable. Plus, it has a built-in 10,000 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:03.400 RPM micro fan to ensure device temperatures remain within safe limits 00:08:01.440 --> 00:08:07.360 during 25 W charging. If you find yourself on airplanes a lot, no need to 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:10.960 worry, as it complies with TSA carry-on battery rules. And it just looks sick as 00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:14.160 hell with its transparent design combined with RGB lighting. Treat 00:08:12.520 --> 00:08:19.200 yourself this holiday season, and pick up a Sharge IceMag 3 at the link below. 00:08:16.960 --> 00:08:25.040 Are you tired of boring screwdrivers? Boom! Four new colors of the brand new 00:08:22.200 --> 00:08:30.760 LTT transparent screwdriver. Plasma purple, cryo teal, molten orange, and 00:08:28.520 --> 00:08:33.880 carbon black. They're see-through, they're awesome, and they're probably 00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:40.080 going to sell out. The Prismagic screwdrivers are launching on December 26th at 6:00 a.m. PST. Sign up at the 00:08:37.880 --> 00:08:46.480 link below to get notified. Collect them all, or maybe pair them with our brand 00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:46.480 new bit case and all-over print hoodie. 00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:52.240 Bell put the computer down, and he plugged stuff in, but he didn't he didn't flip the switch on the back of 00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:55.720 the power supply. So, luckily, that's an easy fix. And if 00:08:53.800 --> 00:08:59.520 it's not, well, our computer's hooped, and uh that's not good. But, uh you 00:08:58.560 --> 00:09:04.560 know, there's already lights going to the motherboard. Hey, oh, sick, and it's all red out of the box, too. 00:09:02.680 --> 00:09:07.586 >> Keep an eye on that AIO. WHY A 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:12.840 WOAH! [screaming] [groaning] THAT'S AWESOME. It's playing what, Doom 00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:15.840 1 1? I kind of wish you could move it, though. Like, that's my only issue is 00:09:14.160 --> 00:09:21.040 it's like in the middle. I want it to be full screen here, or full screen on the 00:09:18.280 --> 00:09:23.760 side. Uh right now, it's like split. So, I don't know if that's adjustable in 00:09:22.160 --> 00:09:28.720 software, but I really hope it is. I'm being told that we've done a video on the Panorama before, and it is 00:09:26.520 --> 00:09:32.320 adjustable. So, we're going to adjust that for the future. Not for this video, 00:09:30.800 --> 00:09:36.720 but this is our new set PC. So, absolutely in the future. First thing 00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:40.480 I'm going to do is make sure XMP is on. It's from Maingear, 00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:43.800 so of course, it's set. They've also enabled rebar right out of the box, 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:49.560 which I mean, I think most motherboards just kind of do that these days on their own, but hey, it's nice to know that 00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:52.400 they didn't disable it, and um that's where some of your performance is going 00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:56.800 to come from. So, you want to make sure that everything's configured. All right, 00:09:54.080 --> 00:10:00.920 we're playing Doom the Dark Ages on our Doom the Dark Ages computer from Main 00:09:58.920 --> 00:10:06.800 Gear and I've got everything set to ultra nightmare except for path tracing 00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:08.640 and we've got DLSS set to quality. I 00:10:06.800 --> 00:10:12.720 personally won't go lower than quality. Yeah, we're getting 00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:17.000 easy 140 120, 00:10:14.560 --> 00:10:21.400 31% lows. Like this plays great. But let's, you know, 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:25.680 some of you don't like DLSS even at quality. So, let's turn it off and 00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:31.400 see what we get at native 4K. Okay, now we're native using I think TAA was the 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:35.040 only option which I don't like TAA, but you know, you can probably use DLAA 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:39.600 instead of DLSS and that's fine. But without upscaling, we're looking at like 00:10:36.800 --> 00:10:48.080 still 90 frames per second average. 1% is only in the 84, 85, like 88 range. 00:10:44.280 --> 00:10:50.080 Um so, yeah. The truth is, if you spend 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:54.240 a lot of money on your computer, it's going to do just about whatever you 00:10:52.760 --> 00:10:56.920 want it to do when it comes to gaming, especially in a really well-optimized 00:10:55.920 --> 00:11:04.240 game using id Tech. But what about other games? Well, the lab did test a slew of 00:11:00.920 --> 00:11:06.600 games at both 1440p and at 4K and they 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:10.440 all tested admirably. Basically, as good as you're going to expect from the 00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:14.720 hardware that we've got in this machine. It also ran nice and cool during all of 00:11:12.560 --> 00:11:20.720 that. So, you know that the case, the fans, the GPU, everything is working as 00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:23.520 it should along with our nice 360 mil 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:29.400 AIO keeping our CPU nice and cool. And I should really hope that it does because 00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:34.800 as spec'd, this machine costs about $6,000. 00:11:32.040 --> 00:11:38.680 So, it's a lot of money, but also we needed a really high-end PC for our 00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:42.400 brand new ShortCircuit set and I'm really glad that Main Gear sent it over. 00:11:40.400 --> 00:11:46.200 They didn't sponsor this video, but thanks Main Gear. We do appreciate it. 00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:51.120 Ultimately though, it's up to you to decide whether one, you want to spend 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:55.268 this much money on a computer and two, whether you want a super cool limited 00:11:53.040 --> 00:11:59.640 edition Doom version of your computer. [music] Whatever you want to do, if you 00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:03.720 want to get more information and stay up to speed on what's coming out, make sure 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:07.640 to stay subscribed to ShortCircuit. I'm Ploof. This is our new set. Check out 00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:12.200 the LTT that we're going to release if you want to learn anything more about that. Goodbye.
