WEBVTT

00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:04.159
let's copy the world's ugliest fan

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

00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:14.719
look for water cooling okay and then yeah we can come back

00:00:13.120 --> 00:00:18.160
both teams were given permission to do their water cooling with stuff from the

00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:21.680
Linus warehouse problem is luke and Linus didn't

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:25.680
actually get the message so the bs mods guys get the first crack at it

00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:33.440
tech showdown is brought to you by synergy 2 in partnership with g-skill be

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:37.600
quiet and cable mod synergy 2 makes sharing your mouse and

00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:42.399
keyboard between multiple computers so simple that anyone can use it learn more

00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:48.480
at the link below we could do cream accents

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:48.480
with a brown base

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:53.039
we have to commit to something it's two o'clock

00:00:53.360 --> 00:00:59.199
yeah okay let's do it then i don't think it's the greatest idea

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

00:01:00.879 --> 00:01:06.000
killer idea and i don't necessarily think that we

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

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:15.680
do you want this kind of candy color or do you want

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

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.720
sorry i'm changing gears on you again that's weird but if this is

00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:28.720
gold brown we could reuse the gold caps

00:01:25.759 --> 00:01:28.720
and do the base brown

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:34.479
but that would be that would match the theme that would match the color scheme

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

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:45.119
just forget it brandon wasn't recording that anyway this is a pretty ambitious project that

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:45.119
we've put in it in front of ourselves

00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:51.439
everything's [ __ ] we're [ __ ] you know we're gonna lose right yeah let's

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:54.720
just try not to get humiliated yeah like i don't want to give them the

00:01:52.240 --> 00:01:59.119
satisfaction okay i'm just going to cry i think because

00:01:56.320 --> 00:01:59.119
that's probably fair

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:05.439
everything's [ __ ] let's just give up let's just take all the candy off the

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:11.280
shelves literally jam it into our tower

00:02:08.399 --> 00:02:11.280
and build a computer

00:02:11.920 --> 00:02:14.640
oh my god

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

00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:29.360
and like the the like d on candy land is like

00:02:27.200 --> 00:02:31.440
if we could illuminate the candyland sign i don't think that would even be

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.239
that hard um and have the d like kind of falling off

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:41.760
and not illuminated oh god okay that is a lot of work that's

00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:45.120
like two hours of work yeah but the candyland sign would

00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:49.040
probably be pretty important okay what color

00:02:47.440 --> 00:02:53.840
green no because it doesn't look like grass

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

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

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:05.920
kind of divide and conquer rather than trying to tackle everything together we

00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:09.440
have the general theme kind of figured out

00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:14.959
luke kicked my ass with his diorama skills in the second

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:20.319
tech showdown something like that so luke is in charge

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:22.480
making this the

00:03:22.640 --> 00:03:26.720
why don't you guys like talk a little bit or something you know

00:03:29.040 --> 00:03:35.680
okay and then i am on transforming this

00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:43.760
desktop surface and figuring out how the uh

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:43.760
scenery is going to work

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

00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:53.280
some inspiration and uh i'm like on a roll with this we'll be

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

00:03:56.959 --> 00:04:02.080
i gotta figure out some paint coatings for some other stuff

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

00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:10.239
now that i'm out of earshot i'm finding this place pretty oppressive

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

00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:18.160
worst so we've stripped down the case where no

00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:23.120
we're painting it painting it inside outside some accents colors

00:04:20.799 --> 00:04:28.560
pulled the tray out everything plastic rubber is gone we're gonna be doing hard

00:04:25.280 --> 00:04:31.440
line water cooling right um hopefully to

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:34.400
GPU and CPU we also might use these gigantic this is a 400 millimeter

00:04:32.960 --> 00:04:38.240
reservoir these might be actually mounted onto the desk

00:04:36.400 --> 00:04:41.919
and not inside the computer which will bring the hard line

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:46.880
across the computer and the desk and tie the whole thing together so we don't

00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:48.400
have an actual plan really no

00:04:46.880 --> 00:04:51.440
but we made it look like we did we have elements we

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

00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:00.080
it usually revolves around a lot of elements so we're trying to just develop

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

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:06.160
going to have we got to have movement right

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

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:15.919
we can find them we want some big giant yeah lollipop whatever things um we're

00:05:14.320 --> 00:05:21.120
gonna of course light the underside of the desk we're gonna try to use the

00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:22.960
sawhorse desk parts right um we're gonna

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:26.240
try to enclose those with acrylic and then we were probably gonna do something

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

00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:34.240
do some sort of uh signage like call it

00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:40.240
uh something something candy shop like win winning

00:05:35.919 --> 00:05:42.960
winning team candy shop we just ran into

00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:46.400
the pink lamb right here and so uh we know that our competition is in the

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

00:05:47.919 --> 00:05:52.800
little bit you know i just i thought this was gonna be like

00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:57.520
you know a by the rules competition these guys

00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:01.120
just keep camping it up in my aisle here

00:06:01.280 --> 00:06:06.880
camping it up in my aisle we're trying to scope out the

00:06:05.520 --> 00:06:11.440
competition oh the hide yourself

00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:14.800
yeah as if you guys have anything worth hiding

00:06:13.520 --> 00:06:19.280
okay that's the we are so [ __ ] just [ __ ]

00:06:17.440 --> 00:06:22.560
off that's the underside

00:06:20.960 --> 00:06:27.680
like it's fine okay so i have a little bit of this gold left

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

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

00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:43.440
so this is i believe the same gold but new

00:06:39.520 --> 00:06:45.120
it's not the same at all so that's cool

00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:49.280
these are these are rollers

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

00:06:50.960 --> 00:06:57.120
the edges and green turf on the top so the desk

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

00:06:59.919 --> 00:07:06.000
not necessarily i still think we should get the wrapping paper which it just

00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:11.039
occurred to me we appear to already actually have

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:14.160
oh okay so i wonder if we can just borrow that

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

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

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

00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:31.840
getting the fondue machine i also got a bunch of multiple chocolate for it uh oh

00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:34.000
yeah so hazmat guys

00:07:31.840 --> 00:07:37.919
um yeah i figured we could just like comically cross that out

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:43.199
and write something else i think i think this will be good i don't know

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

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

00:07:48.960 --> 00:07:57.360
bunch of extra stuff so i have um i have like a pallet

00:07:55.440 --> 00:08:00.560
that's cool and i have like a cage that goes around it

00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:04.160
if we wanted to have like some finished candy in there

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

00:08:05.840 --> 00:08:12.080
behind the computer because i don't know absolutely this could be yeah um and

00:08:10.080 --> 00:08:15.520
then our hazmat guys could work on that i got the hazmat guys come with hatchets

00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:20.160
for some reason so i got them to throw in some brooms

00:08:17.919 --> 00:08:25.039
for them cool okay so hazmat guys have brooms now but they only came with

00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:29.039
hatchets yeah i know right or like pickaxes or whatever you would

00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:32.479
call that sure okay they're mining plutonium with pickaxes

00:08:30.960 --> 00:08:38.640
yeah sure why not so right so this is the um

00:08:35.599 --> 00:08:40.640
the like area behind it or whatever and

00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:44.320
these guys are like working on it or whatever yeah cool i love that so we

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

00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:52.640
okay um maybe the behind the computer isn't

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:56.320
even hidden on an angle behind it it's like beside it over here

00:08:54.640 --> 00:09:00.959
and then candyland is over there cool that's good you sound worried i'm

00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:04.399
[ __ ] worried i am like i could not possibly be more

00:09:03.040 --> 00:09:08.640
worried right now we are we're gonna get our ass i think

00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:13.760
them being allowed to do like super crazy multi-loop water cooling and us

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

00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:20.839
complete waste of time super matters oh no way are you kidding me

00:09:19.760 --> 00:09:25.040
stephen what yeah but remember like

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

00:09:28.560 --> 00:09:34.640
absolutely we are not allowed yeah

00:09:32.560 --> 00:09:38.240
doing it now is probably an issue yeah even then i don't think look i

00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:44.000
think if we try to go head-to-head that's for the keyboard

00:09:41.920 --> 00:09:46.240
if we try to go head-to-head those are stupid

00:09:44.959 --> 00:09:50.240
um like hardline water-cooled build versus

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:53.920
hardline water cool build we're gonna get our asses kicked anyway

00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:59.440
they're gonna do a better job of it right so we're better off executing

00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:04.959
our style better than they would execute their style or

00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:08.560
if not better than funner and i know founder's not a word but that

00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:13.680
was sort of my point sure we're the funner team you know

00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:19.519
it's like we don't really get it but we seem nice you know

00:10:16.160 --> 00:10:21.760
one of our shirts don't fit yeah

00:10:19.519 --> 00:10:26.560
we're going for the sympathy vote uh brandon where do you want this lens

00:10:23.839 --> 00:10:31.600
synergy 2 is designed to be easier and more seamless to use than synergy one

00:10:29.040 --> 00:10:36.640
features include sharing from anywhere with automatic control of any other

00:10:33.920 --> 00:10:41.519
computer without reconfiguring ssl encryption to protect your keystrokes

00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:43.600
from attackers dynamic networking so it

00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:48.560
detects the best route based on your setup and being able to always run in

00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:54.079
the background on all your operating systems so you can set and forget and it

00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:58.399
even works across vpn's and tricky home networks if you get the pro version you

00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:03.519
can get access to other cool features too like clipboard sharing dragging and

00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:07.360
dropping files copy pasting lock screen synchronization and lots more we got

00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:13.120
some nice pink spray paint thanks bro we got

00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:15.040
uh steel rod we got stuff from the candy

00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:20.480
shop oh you're excited about that shop stuff a bunch of paint prep stuff

00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:24.320
our chalkboard that we talked about uh we got some

00:11:22.800 --> 00:11:30.240
of these lights right here that we're gonna use above and below RGB yeah RGB

00:11:27.920 --> 00:11:35.519
everything all the stuffs and then our sparkly uh stuff we showed you

00:11:33.040 --> 00:11:39.279
we got some sparkly glitter glue stick things

00:11:37.040 --> 00:11:42.880
and then all the associated like you know supplies paint rollers that kind of

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

00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:47.360
there yeah we're running outside bye

00:11:50.160 --> 00:11:57.640
we don't have to worry about the edge because we're working all right

00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:57.640
so these are yeah full

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

00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:16.320
morning okay all right five minutes

00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:21.680
so from what i can tell those guys haven't done anything that looks good

00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:26.240
so um yeah we could just wait a whole another day

00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:31.360
don't touch that because it's not secured in any meaningful way

00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:33.760
okay the idea evolved from

00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:38.480
a flowing river of chocolate that the user can consume

00:12:36.959 --> 00:12:45.040
into having it be like like a candy

00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:46.800
place themed into having some things

00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:52.000
maybe be wrapped in foil but then be chocolate inside

00:12:48.560 --> 00:12:54.320
and then into now the tower is a factory

00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:59.600
and outside is like where the workers harvest the materials to make candy

00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:03.120
the guy can't even stand up what

00:13:01.839 --> 00:13:06.880
well no that's fine we'll just hot glue everything

00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:10.399
i mean all of those changes occurred within a span of a couple of hours

00:13:08.880 --> 00:13:15.760
meaning that there's been very little decisive action

00:13:12.959 --> 00:13:19.440
and very little time to act on it wait the decisive action is the action i

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

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

00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:34.200
like serious who can build the best you know modded computer or whatever look at

00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:34.200
these guys they're like

00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:40.240
so i don't have the paint booth set up right now which means that

00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:44.000
this is pretty much our best bet

00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:48.959
um preferably

00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:55.120
yeah this isn't ideal tuck tape tuck tape hit

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:58.440
me with the duct tape nice throw

00:14:05.680 --> 00:14:07.920
okay

00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:14.639
their measurement of a good day

00:14:12.959 --> 00:14:20.399
how much painting you can do maybe it isn't about painting

00:14:17.680 --> 00:14:25.279
and i'm gonna spring into action springing into action for day two

00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:29.600
let's get on this first things first i need to get another

00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:34.240
coat of my stain on here got my got my dark brown stain i got one

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

00:14:35.839 --> 00:14:41.440
tv i mean that's hot to some people i think

00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:46.160
like maybe we could do like a brick street kind of deal and use like

00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:49.600
kitkat bars and have the wheelbarrow there and they're like laying them out

00:14:47.760 --> 00:14:53.600
on top like GPU or something totally cool um this is honestly not the one i

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

00:14:56.839 --> 00:15:01.680
across uh it's probably good enough yeah

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

00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:13.040
getting this uh cut out and i want it to line up as perfectly

00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:17.120
along the sides as we can get away with i reflected a lot last night

00:15:15.839 --> 00:15:23.199
and i'm coming into today

00:15:20.160 --> 00:15:25.440
feeling a lot better actually

00:15:23.199 --> 00:15:30.320
today's a fresh day it doesn't have to be affected by the

00:15:27.199 --> 00:15:30.320
failures of yesterday

00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:37.199
so this is what we call the comfort surface

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

00:15:39.920 --> 00:15:45.760
uncomfortable yeah no oh it's not exceptional i mean it's a

00:15:43.839 --> 00:15:49.519
little uncomfortable you definitely red mark your hand like real fast this has

00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:54.279
to come off and i need to do some more staining

00:15:55.920 --> 00:16:02.480
tell me objectively does it look bad like no and you're gonna cover it anyway

00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:05.839
so why does it matter okay fine good while luke and Linus are going with

00:16:03.839 --> 00:16:09.680
brown the other team is getting started with good old-fashioned white hopefully

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

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

00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:25.519
could paint where those were and then just kind of wiped it down with dinner

00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:27.440
to get it ready to paint

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

00:16:30.560 --> 00:16:35.079
take a couple hours

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

00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:48.839
get it yes we'll make it great again

00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:54.000
we need to jury rig ourselves some way to hang things once

00:16:52.079 --> 00:16:58.000
we're done painting them honestly luke

00:16:55.519 --> 00:17:02.000
i think a good enough paint job

00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:08.720
plus our x factor could be enough to do this

00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:12.480
maybe because i honestly don't think the judges are going to look that closely at

00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:16.480
the paint biggest mistake yesterday was not just

00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:19.679
like going with something and then just like

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

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

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

00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:38.080
assignment coming i mean literally no one did i think

00:17:35.520 --> 00:17:44.320
not even Colton yep oh yeah you were here for that right yep

00:17:41.520 --> 00:17:48.000
Colton's like what that doesn't make any sense

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

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

00:17:57.840 --> 00:18:03.840
luke and Linus might have a shot at making up for their slow start they're

00:18:01.840 --> 00:18:09.280
going full speed ahead with whatever half big idea they have but will it be

00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:12.280
enough find out next time on tech showdown
