1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,159
let's copy the world's ugliest fan

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:11,599
do you want to go to the warehouse now and start doing water cooling and then we'll head out okay afterwards let's go

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:14,719
look for water cooling okay and then yeah we can come back

4
00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:18,160
both teams were given permission to do their water cooling with stuff from the

5
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:21,680
Linus warehouse problem is luke and Linus didn't

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:25,680
actually get the message so the bs mods guys get the first crack at it

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:33,440
tech showdown is brought to you by synergy 2 in partnership with g-skill be

8
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:37,600
quiet and cable mod synergy 2 makes sharing your mouse and

9
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:42,399
keyboard between multiple computers so simple that anyone can use it learn more

10
00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:48,480
at the link below we could do cream accents

11
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,480
with a brown base

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,039
we have to commit to something it's two o'clock

13
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:59,199
yeah okay let's do it then i don't think it's the greatest idea

14
00:00:57,199 --> 00:01:02,239
i've ever had but like i think for us to win this we really needed like a super

15
00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:06,000
killer idea and i don't necessarily think that we

16
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:10,000
have one so let's do it so let's get this banged out as fast as we can

17
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:15,680
do you want this kind of candy color or do you want

18
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:18,640
this kind of this kind of candy color okay here's here's a crazy idea i'm

19
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:22,720
sorry i'm changing gears on you again that's weird but if this is

20
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:28,720
gold brown we could reuse the gold caps

21
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:28,720
and do the base brown

22
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:34,479
but that would be that would match the theme that would match the color scheme

23
00:01:32,479 --> 00:01:38,320
but not the overarching theme forget it i i said a dumb thing and we're all gonna

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:45,119
just forget it brandon wasn't recording that anyway this is a pretty ambitious project that

25
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:45,119
we've put in it in front of ourselves

26
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:51,439
everything's [ __ ] we're [ __ ] you know we're gonna lose right yeah let's

27
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:54,720
just try not to get humiliated yeah like i don't want to give them the

28
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:59,119
satisfaction okay i'm just going to cry i think because

29
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,119
that's probably fair

30
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:05,439
everything's [ __ ] let's just give up let's just take all the candy off the

31
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:11,280
shelves literally jam it into our tower

32
00:02:08,399 --> 00:02:11,280
and build a computer

33
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:14,640
oh my god

34
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:26,239
that could have to be kind of cool i think we could make that work a dark spin to candyland the dark side of candy

35
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:29,360
and like the the like d on candy land is like

36
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,440
if we could illuminate the candyland sign i don't think that would even be

37
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:36,239
that hard um and have the d like kind of falling off

38
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:41,760
and not illuminated oh god okay that is a lot of work that's

39
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:45,120
like two hours of work yeah but the candyland sign would

40
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:49,040
probably be pretty important okay what color

41
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:53,840
green no because it doesn't look like grass

42
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:57,760
so we get fake grass from somewhere and then i'm not worried about the color too

43
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:01,680
much so we could just go with brown okay so i think what we're gonna do is

44
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:05,920
kind of divide and conquer rather than trying to tackle everything together we

45
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:09,440
have the general theme kind of figured out

46
00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:14,959
luke kicked my ass with his diorama skills in the second

47
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:20,319
tech showdown something like that so luke is in charge

48
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,480
making this the

49
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:26,720
why don't you guys like talk a little bit or something you know

50
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:35,680
okay and then i am on transforming this

51
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:43,760
desktop surface and figuring out how the uh

52
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,760
scenery is going to work

53
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:50,319
so i'm going home depot he's going to michael's we're both going to look for

54
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,280
some inspiration and uh i'm like on a roll with this we'll be

55
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:58,799
vlogging it up while we're there this dress right now so i'm going to get this finished so i got to coat this

56
00:03:56,959 --> 00:04:02,080
i gotta figure out some paint coatings for some other stuff

57
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:06,959
since i'm covering things i might as well figure out this horrible zit on my nose

58
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:10,239
now that i'm out of earshot i'm finding this place pretty oppressive

59
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:14,239
i just got to get out of here man working with luke the worst it's the

60
00:04:12,239 --> 00:04:18,160
worst so we've stripped down the case where no

61
00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:23,120
we're painting it painting it inside outside some accents colors

62
00:04:20,799 --> 00:04:28,560
pulled the tray out everything plastic rubber is gone we're gonna be doing hard

63
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:31,440
line water cooling right um hopefully to

64
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:34,400
GPU and CPU we also might use these gigantic this is a 400 millimeter

65
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:38,240
reservoir these might be actually mounted onto the desk

66
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:41,919
and not inside the computer which will bring the hard line

67
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:46,880
across the computer and the desk and tie the whole thing together so we don't

68
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,400
have an actual plan really no

69
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:51,440
but we made it look like we did we have elements we

70
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:56,320
we just wanted them to sweat a little bit so we what we when we get a good mod

71
00:04:54,639 --> 00:05:00,080
it usually revolves around a lot of elements so we're trying to just develop

72
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,479
each key element okay some of the things we know that we're going to use we're

73
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,160
going to have we got to have movement right

74
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:11,600
we know that we're going to do some big candy like giant well we hope as long as

75
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:15,919
we can find them we want some big giant yeah lollipop whatever things um we're

76
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:21,120
gonna of course light the underside of the desk we're gonna try to use the

77
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,960
sawhorse desk parts right um we're gonna

78
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,240
try to enclose those with acrylic and then we were probably gonna do something

79
00:05:24,479 --> 00:05:31,759
with some sort of signage or a whole front skirt on the front of the desk and

80
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:34,240
do some sort of uh signage like call it

81
00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:40,240
uh something something candy shop like win winning

82
00:05:35,919 --> 00:05:42,960
winning team candy shop we just ran into

83
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:46,400
the pink lamb right here and so uh we know that our competition is in the

84
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,600
store so we're gonna let some air out of their tires to slow them down just a

85
00:05:47,919 --> 00:05:52,800
little bit you know i just i thought this was gonna be like

86
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:57,520
you know a by the rules competition these guys

87
00:05:55,759 --> 00:06:01,120
just keep camping it up in my aisle here

88
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:06,880
camping it up in my aisle we're trying to scope out the

89
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:11,440
competition oh the hide yourself

90
00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:14,800
yeah as if you guys have anything worth hiding

91
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:19,280
okay that's the we are so [ __ ] just [ __ ]

92
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:22,560
off that's the underside

93
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:27,680
like it's fine okay so i have a little bit of this gold left

94
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:31,600
i don't think it's enough so i bought another one but we can return that if we

95
00:06:29,919 --> 00:06:37,759
don't need it this was just in my car don't worry about it ignore that

96
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:43,440
so this is i believe the same gold but new

97
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,120
it's not the same at all so that's cool

98
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:49,280
these are these are rollers

99
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:53,039
so what i think i'm actually going to do is i'm going to go chocolate brown on

100
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:57,120
the edges and green turf on the top so the desk

101
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:02,000
actually has like a two-tone look and then do you want to do chocolate brown for the legs too

102
00:06:59,919 --> 00:07:06,000
not necessarily i still think we should get the wrapping paper which it just

103
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:11,039
occurred to me we appear to already actually have

104
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:14,160
oh okay so i wonder if we can just borrow that

105
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:17,919
here's a white there's actually a bright red spray bomb in the workshop right now

106
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:21,919
okay check out my toy store haul as well okay one quick thing i got the fondue

107
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:26,479
machine they didn't really want me to vlog in the store so here's my vlog for

108
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:31,840
getting the fondue machine i also got a bunch of multiple chocolate for it uh oh

109
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:34,000
yeah so hazmat guys

110
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:37,919
um yeah i figured we could just like comically cross that out

111
00:07:35,919 --> 00:07:43,199
and write something else i think i think this will be good i don't know

112
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,880
what is this that's like accessories and stuff you you have to buy them at like

113
00:07:45,599 --> 00:07:50,880
see their heat sealed you have to buy them as like these sets this is just a

114
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:57,360
bunch of extra stuff so i have um i have like a pallet

115
00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:00,560
that's cool and i have like a cage that goes around it

116
00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:04,160
if we wanted to have like some finished candy in there

117
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:07,680
i have um i tried to get as much of this kind of this could be like wasteland

118
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:12,080
behind the computer because i don't know absolutely this could be yeah um and

119
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:15,520
then our hazmat guys could work on that i got the hazmat guys come with hatchets

120
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:20,160
for some reason so i got them to throw in some brooms

121
00:08:17,919 --> 00:08:25,039
for them cool okay so hazmat guys have brooms now but they only came with

122
00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:29,039
hatchets yeah i know right or like pickaxes or whatever you would

123
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:32,479
call that sure okay they're mining plutonium with pickaxes

124
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:38,640
yeah sure why not so right so this is the um

125
00:08:35,599 --> 00:08:40,640
the like area behind it or whatever and

126
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:44,320
these guys are like working on it or whatever yeah cool i love that so we

127
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:48,399
should leave a sig like a fairly significant amount of space behind the computer if we can

128
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:52,640
okay um maybe the behind the computer isn't

129
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:56,320
even hidden on an angle behind it it's like beside it over here

130
00:08:54,640 --> 00:09:00,959
and then candyland is over there cool that's good you sound worried i'm

131
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:04,399
[ __ ] worried i am like i could not possibly be more

132
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:08,640
worried right now we are we're gonna get our ass i think

133
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:13,760
them being allowed to do like super crazy multi-loop water cooling and us

134
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,920
not is like not really fair oh i don't think that matters i think that's a

135
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,839
complete waste of time super matters oh no way are you kidding me

136
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:25,040
stephen what yeah but remember like

137
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:31,200
he's going to go wow there's his water cooled yours is not you're [ __ ] plebs

138
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:34,640
absolutely we are not allowed yeah

139
00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:38,240
doing it now is probably an issue yeah even then i don't think look i

140
00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:44,000
think if we try to go head-to-head that's for the keyboard

141
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,240
if we try to go head-to-head those are stupid

142
00:09:44,959 --> 00:09:50,240
um like hardline water-cooled build versus

143
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,920
hardline water cool build we're gonna get our asses kicked anyway

144
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:59,440
they're gonna do a better job of it right so we're better off executing

145
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:04,959
our style better than they would execute their style or

146
00:10:02,399 --> 00:10:08,560
if not better than funner and i know founder's not a word but that

147
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:13,680
was sort of my point sure we're the funner team you know

148
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:19,519
it's like we don't really get it but we seem nice you know

149
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:21,760
one of our shirts don't fit yeah

150
00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:26,560
we're going for the sympathy vote uh brandon where do you want this lens

151
00:10:23,839 --> 00:10:31,600
synergy 2 is designed to be easier and more seamless to use than synergy one

152
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:36,640
features include sharing from anywhere with automatic control of any other

153
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:41,519
computer without reconfiguring ssl encryption to protect your keystrokes

154
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,600
from attackers dynamic networking so it

155
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:48,560
detects the best route based on your setup and being able to always run in

156
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:54,079
the background on all your operating systems so you can set and forget and it

157
00:10:51,519 --> 00:10:58,399
even works across vpn's and tricky home networks if you get the pro version you

158
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:03,519
can get access to other cool features too like clipboard sharing dragging and

159
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:07,360
dropping files copy pasting lock screen synchronization and lots more we got

160
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:13,120
some nice pink spray paint thanks bro we got

161
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,040
uh steel rod we got stuff from the candy

162
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:20,480
shop oh you're excited about that shop stuff a bunch of paint prep stuff

163
00:11:17,839 --> 00:11:24,320
our chalkboard that we talked about uh we got some

164
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:30,240
of these lights right here that we're gonna use above and below RGB yeah RGB

165
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:35,519
everything all the stuffs and then our sparkly uh stuff we showed you

166
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:39,279
we got some sparkly glitter glue stick things

167
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:42,880
and then all the associated like you know supplies paint rollers that kind of

168
00:11:40,959 --> 00:11:47,360
crap nothing too exciting so all right let's get moving we're going to go in

169
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,360
there yeah we're running outside bye

170
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:57,640
we don't have to worry about the edge because we're working all right

171
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,640
so these are yeah full

172
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:10,639
by the time we get it cleaned off okay we're about to do that in the

173
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:16,320
morning okay all right five minutes

174
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:21,680
so from what i can tell those guys haven't done anything that looks good

175
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:26,240
so um yeah we could just wait a whole another day

176
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:31,360
don't touch that because it's not secured in any meaningful way

177
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,760
okay the idea evolved from

178
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:38,480
a flowing river of chocolate that the user can consume

179
00:12:36,959 --> 00:12:45,040
into having it be like like a candy

180
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:46,800
place themed into having some things

181
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:52,000
maybe be wrapped in foil but then be chocolate inside

182
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:54,320
and then into now the tower is a factory

183
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:59,600
and outside is like where the workers harvest the materials to make candy

184
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:03,120
the guy can't even stand up what

185
00:13:01,839 --> 00:13:06,880
well no that's fine we'll just hot glue everything

186
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,399
i mean all of those changes occurred within a span of a couple of hours

187
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:15,760
meaning that there's been very little decisive action

188
00:13:12,959 --> 00:13:19,440
and very little time to act on it wait the decisive action is the action i

189
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:24,480
mean this is what this is what i'm talking about because we get fun you know

190
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:28,959
like that's what this project is supposed to be about it's not supposed to be all

191
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:34,200
like serious who can build the best you know modded computer or whatever look at

192
00:13:30,639 --> 00:13:34,200
these guys they're like

193
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:40,240
so i don't have the paint booth set up right now which means that

194
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:44,000
this is pretty much our best bet

195
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,959
um preferably

196
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:55,120
yeah this isn't ideal tuck tape tuck tape hit

197
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:58,440
me with the duct tape nice throw

198
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,920
okay

199
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:14,639
their measurement of a good day

200
00:14:12,959 --> 00:14:20,399
how much painting you can do maybe it isn't about painting

201
00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:25,279
and i'm gonna spring into action springing into action for day two

202
00:14:23,279 --> 00:14:29,600
let's get on this first things first i need to get another

203
00:14:27,519 --> 00:14:34,240
coat of my stain on here got my got my dark brown stain i got one

204
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:37,120
here you know got other ones that i can't show you because it's too hot for

205
00:14:35,839 --> 00:14:41,440
tv i mean that's hot to some people i think

206
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:46,160
like maybe we could do like a brick street kind of deal and use like

207
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:49,600
kitkat bars and have the wheelbarrow there and they're like laying them out

208
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:53,600
on top like GPU or something totally cool um this is honestly not the one i

209
00:14:52,399 --> 00:15:00,800
wanted they didn't have the one i wanted in stock but i think it'll get the point

210
00:14:56,839 --> 00:15:01,680
across uh it's probably good enough yeah

211
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:08,079
so i'm gonna work on getting this while you finish disassembling i'm gonna work on

212
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:13,040
getting this uh cut out and i want it to line up as perfectly

213
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:17,120
along the sides as we can get away with i reflected a lot last night

214
00:15:15,839 --> 00:15:23,199
and i'm coming into today

215
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:25,440
feeling a lot better actually

216
00:15:23,199 --> 00:15:30,320
today's a fresh day it doesn't have to be affected by the

217
00:15:27,199 --> 00:15:30,320
failures of yesterday

218
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:37,199
so this is what we call the comfort surface

219
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:42,000
i think we need a mouse pad or else we'll lose some points because our comfort surface is like exceptionally

220
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:45,760
uncomfortable yeah no oh it's not exceptional i mean it's a

221
00:15:43,839 --> 00:15:49,519
little uncomfortable you definitely red mark your hand like real fast this has

222
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:54,279
to come off and i need to do some more staining

223
00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:02,480
tell me objectively does it look bad like no and you're gonna cover it anyway

224
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:05,839
so why does it matter okay fine good while luke and Linus are going with

225
00:16:03,839 --> 00:16:09,680
brown the other team is getting started with good old-fashioned white hopefully

226
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:16,240
their plan for painting won't be as big of a letdown as it was in scrapyard wars

227
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:20,800
yeah so i just finished cleaning off all the stickers that were on the case so we

228
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:25,519
could paint where those were and then just kind of wiped it down with dinner

229
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,440
to get it ready to paint

230
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:31,680
okay so i got full coverage on the first coat i'm gonna let that sit it might

231
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:35,079
take a couple hours

232
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:43,759
i'm not sure how to get these grates off of some of these parts but i'm working on it great

233
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:48,839
get it yes we'll make it great again

234
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:54,000
we need to jury rig ourselves some way to hang things once

235
00:16:52,079 --> 00:16:58,000
we're done painting them honestly luke

236
00:16:55,519 --> 00:17:02,000
i think a good enough paint job

237
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:08,720
plus our x factor could be enough to do this

238
00:17:06,559 --> 00:17:12,480
maybe because i honestly don't think the judges are going to look that closely at

239
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:16,480
the paint biggest mistake yesterday was not just

240
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,679
like going with something and then just like

241
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:24,559
frantically doing it i think that's what we need to do for the next three days well that's yeah

242
00:17:23,199 --> 00:17:28,880
yeah i don't know if i agree on the first part but that is what we need to do now

243
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:32,799
there's kind of a wild card here because uh like i really didn't see this team

244
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:38,080
assignment coming i mean literally no one did i think

245
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:44,320
not even Colton yep oh yeah you were here for that right yep

246
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:48,000
Colton's like what that doesn't make any sense

247
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:52,320
i'm not going to be the kid on the school yard that whines about the teams

248
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:57,600
i'm going to be the kid on the school yard who makes the best of his crappy team

249
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:03,840
luke and Linus might have a shot at making up for their slow start they're

250
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:09,280
going full speed ahead with whatever half big idea they have but will it be

251
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:12,280
enough find out next time on tech showdown
