WEBVTT

00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:08.000
ah we're good this is a

00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:12.080
okay so it's usually Linus who shows up at somebody's house to do an extreme

00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:17.279
tech upgrade sponsored by Intel but the problem is that he's usually

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:18.800
here to upgrade a pc

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:22.800
as far as i'm aware there's never actually been a pc in this house

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:28.400
so maybe we can get mark to let us in a little bit

00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:32.400
on why it is he's never had a pc

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:46.649
hello there

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:55.120
all right well i think the last time i was in a house without a pc and it was in the 1990s so uh why don't you show me

00:00:52.239 --> 00:00:59.920
what it looks like sure all right well everything is uh integrated with home

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:04.960
kit all right i have the eero device here which is uh the mesh network

00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:07.119
one that works with home kit you don't want to like mount it somewhere like

00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:13.439
that like with i'm working on it this is the kitchen so

00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:16.320
these are like my knives and everything oh

00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:22.080
before i was uh an editor uh i used to be a butcher yeah so before

00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:25.680
i cut videos i cut meat i guess it's a natural evolution yeah so who's the very

00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:31.600
good boy that's been following us around all the time oh this is ben

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:33.840
he's uh my dog he's got uh 2000

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:37.040
followers on instagram really yeah ben the terrier fun fact he's not actually a

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:43.840
terrier don't tell anyone is that a plasma tv

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:45.759
yes a 42-inch plasma tv i did not buy

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:50.320
this so it wasn't specifically for playing games oh oh definitely not um

00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:53.840
i'm guessing the reason we're here though

00:01:51.600 --> 00:02:00.560
is you're going to replace it absolutely what are you replacing it with a 55-inch

00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:01.600
lg OLED tv and there's also a sound bar

00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:08.239
over here i noticed you don't have a soundbar or any kind of speakers right now so i got this

00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:11.760
i chose the sonos arc mainly because

00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:14.400
it's a home kit integrated oh so i can

00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:17.200
connect it very easily with uh airplay i know a lot of people in the comments are

00:02:15.760 --> 00:02:21.780
going to say i shouldn't mount it over a fireplace

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:24.879
this is true talk about burn-in

00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:33.040
the air purifier over there is also homekit enabled why do you need

00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:34.640
an air purifier to be home kit enabled

00:02:33.040 --> 00:02:39.040
so i can shut it off when i when we leave the house do you not have a remote

00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:41.680
control the remote control is my iphone

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:49.840
so continuing with the home tour okay it's upstairs

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:56.160
so this is kind of my home office slash studio okay uh slash server room slash

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:01.360
server room everything well yeah here's my server huh you gotta have like an actual rack

00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:05.920
yeah yeah is it just the drogo or dribble nope

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.360
is it the camera nope come over here

00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:12.560
it's that what this that's my server and this is

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:14.959
my desktop editor which is a

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:21.519
vcr yeah that's that's about what i thought that was yeah oh yeah we got this when

00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:26.080
the first imac came out came packaged with the uh computer i i don't get rid

00:03:24.239 --> 00:03:33.120
of my mac so i just repurposed them for other uses so you don't get rid of your macs

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:35.440
where's your uh imac g3 i don't know

00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:40.560
i was looking for it i actually have a g3 a g4 cube

00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:46.959
uh i have a 6400 power mac also i have a apple two plus okay that that i actually

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:50.319
think my mom got rid of got rid of i moved out and then we moved back in so

00:03:48.799 --> 00:03:55.599
this is your mom's place not exactly look she lives with me okay

00:03:54.319 --> 00:04:01.840
okay whatever you say i see you also have a 3d printer yep

00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:05.439
this is the one i got from uh from the office yeah yeah stolen from the uh

00:04:03.920 --> 00:04:08.879
yeah that's that's the excuse we're using despite you know being an apple

00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:15.120
guy uh i do play games it's not like i don't

00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:19.089
have Windows installed on here it's uh through bootcamp bootcamp yeah bootcamp

00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:21.040
that's illegal uh

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:27.919
i mean it is kinda now with m1 and that's part of the reason why i really

00:04:24.880 --> 00:04:30.080
need a pc right right you can't upgrade

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:34.880
well i can't upgrade Windows anyway because i have an egpu

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:38.479
and uh that's what that is yeah in order to game with it i should be plugging

00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.880
into the displayport or HDMI or whatever into the GPU

00:04:39.919 --> 00:04:46.000
but this monitor here is Thunderbolt only

00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:50.560
so i have to plug it into the macbook but let me show you how i have to boot

00:04:48.400 --> 00:04:55.680
into Windows there's the real challenge so to do this properly i need to set the

00:04:53.120 --> 00:05:00.960
startup disk to boot camp what i usually do is i press restart and then i unplug

00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:04.000
everything i gotta hot plug it

00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:08.479
right now into the left port okay cool

00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:11.520
all right so now the fun part

00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:17.520
so now what i have to do is i have to unplug

00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:21.840
the egpu plug it into the other side unplug it

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:27.440
again wait what and then plug it in again

00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:31.919
and now it's recognized now i can plug everything else back in

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:36.000
so tell me something yep where are you going to set up your actual build right

00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:39.680
here do you have a display for it this is the

00:05:38.400 --> 00:05:45.280
display so i got a

00:05:41.919 --> 00:05:47.600
evga 3080 because uh they're the only

00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:52.160
ones that had gpus for some reason um fair enough i got these uh leon lee fans

00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:55.520
because i was recommended them and they just came out and they look pretty

00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:59.919
that's what i'm going for clean and a red theme that's the other

00:05:57.919 --> 00:06:04.160
thing a red thing yeah you know you do know that this is sponsored

00:06:01.440 --> 00:06:10.479
i understand that and you know i've as a apple user i've always been team

00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:12.960
blue and before i was team blue i was

00:06:10.479 --> 00:06:19.600
team big blue uh so we got a core i7 yep

00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:22.800
11 700k yep and then this is the was the

00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:27.280
most important piece of the puzzle

00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:29.680
because this is the z590 ace from MSI

00:06:27.280 --> 00:06:35.840
and the reason i got it is because it has Thunderbolt 4 and that's what i need

00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:40.240
to make it work with that monitor the big ticket item here is the case

00:06:38.080 --> 00:06:43.600
please don't tell me that's an antec 900 nope

00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:47.360
this is a tow 2.0

00:06:45.840 --> 00:06:51.919
what you got that case yeah

00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:57.840
so the reason i got this case is it was featured in the first video i was on in

00:06:54.400 --> 00:07:00.479
an LTT video if i'm gonna get a pc

00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:04.400
i'm gonna go all out pc this case is weird it's literally made of Windows

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:09.599
so the core i7 11700k

00:07:07.520 --> 00:07:13.840
is a 8 core 16 thread processor with a base

00:07:11.520 --> 00:07:20.160
frequency of 3.6 gigahertz with a maximum turbo of 5.0

00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:22.560
and thanks to this rather beefy cooler

00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:26.479
we should be able to actually do that much more often than we normally would

00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:30.479
be able to now mark's not here to defend himself but i don't see any RAM here

00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:35.599
for now i'm going to move on to the NVMe SSD now

00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:36.960
this is the severant rocket NVMe 4.0

00:07:35.599 --> 00:07:43.360
these are actually quite good drives price to

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:46.160
performance wise it's kind of tough to

00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:50.720
say no to them yeah i'll get you the RAM oh the RAM question it's finally being

00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:53.919
answered where is it what is it

00:07:51.919 --> 00:08:01.919
crucial ballistics okay so ddr4 3200 15 18 18 36 so

00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:04.720
that's fine it's fine did you yeah this is

00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:08.560
you took this from the office i was kicked out of the computer club

00:08:06.960 --> 00:08:13.560
what yeah in high school i was kicked out of the computer club why because i

00:08:10.080 --> 00:08:13.560
was a mac user

00:08:13.919 --> 00:08:18.160
uh yeah no it's nothing nothing important i just kind of screwed one of

00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:23.360
the drywall anchors into the wall

00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:26.400
somehow i don't even know how that works so you're probably asking like okay this

00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:31.039
this looks amazing um i'm holding basically a tetris block

00:08:29.599 --> 00:08:36.159
how do we power it well we've got this it goes straight on

00:08:34.800 --> 00:08:42.000
something like uh not like that hang on what so it goes

00:08:39.680 --> 00:08:45.519
on like that i don't look like a fool at all so you just snap it on there and

00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:51.680
you're good to go well i noticed that you don't have a whole lot of RGB these fans are

00:08:48.160 --> 00:08:53.279
basically it i want to make it tasteful

00:08:51.680 --> 00:09:00.240
you don't think unicorn vomit is tasteful unicorn vomit no

00:08:56.959 --> 00:09:01.279
a case made of glass

00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:07.040
yeah long story short i've got the fans in and i've got the fan controller and RGB

00:09:04.880 --> 00:09:09.600
hub in maybe i still need to do cable management but there's not a whole lot

00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:14.240
of cable management opportunities in this case unfortunately

00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:17.839
so we'll have to see how that goes well to go with the red and black build we

00:09:15.839 --> 00:09:23.440
got purple purple and blue brown brown brown

00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:27.040
and purple okay so i've discovered a slight problem yeah okay so there are

00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:29.519
two of these yeah there's only one of those on the board

00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:34.399
yeah which would you prefer the type c or the

00:09:31.839 --> 00:09:37.680
type a's maybe type c that's what it currently looks like

00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:41.839
yeah everything should be good to go from

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:45.600
here all that's left to do is to throw the side panels on and power it up hey

00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:51.839
let's see if this works is it this no

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:55.040
there you go holy crap hey

00:09:51.839 --> 00:10:00.000
that's a lot of light sure is

00:09:55.040 --> 00:10:00.000
that is some grade a rainbow barf

00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:07.360
ben seems to like it yeah it looks like it's like 54

00:10:04.800 --> 00:10:11.760
60 FPS wow a little dipping into the 40s but like

00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:26.399
you've got it turned up to unreasonable in 5k

00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:32.399
so i guess this is the part of the part where we're taking down the old tv and putting the

00:10:30.640 --> 00:10:36.079
new one in pretty much all right you got a drill if not we're

00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:41.120
just going to use our knife yeah we'll use your knives that'll work yeah

00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:44.800
you can eat it we're good

00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:48.720
all i did was let up off it a little bit yeah

00:10:46.880 --> 00:10:52.959
i'm kind of glad it's you and not Linus right now

00:10:50.800 --> 00:10:58.800
i can't see i think you need to go up a bit here we go how do we lock it in place it

00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:02.720
is i think i don't know what this is for oh wait hold on to unlock the tv from

00:11:01.040 --> 00:11:08.240
the wall plate pull down and hold yeah good thing i didn't pull down on those

00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:11.680
yeah yeah because we get it right the first time

00:11:10.800 --> 00:11:16.320
yeah wow that's like the first time in

00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:19.760
any line of tech tips video well it's because we didn't just like oh what does

00:11:17.680 --> 00:11:22.000
this do yank we're like what does this do

00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:27.760
oh yeah don't do that yeah we read the

00:11:24.640 --> 00:11:30.480
manual always read the manual you see i

00:11:27.760 --> 00:11:34.240
kind of peeled a little bit already why would you do that oh it's actually

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:38.399
making a beautiful sound it's like a campfire yeah

00:11:37.040 --> 00:11:42.000
oh yeah oh that looks pretty

00:11:40.079 --> 00:11:44.959
so another reason i chose the ark was mainly because

00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.959
sometimes i don't want to have the tv on especially it's an OLED and i do want to

00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:53.600
play but i do want to play music or something and i can just you know from

00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:57.040
the laptop down here or upstairs just airplay straight to this on the network

00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:02.079
so what you're saying is it's a glorified homepod yeah no the the

00:11:59.839 --> 00:12:07.120
homepod kind of sucks this is just it i'm not like a fanboy of every product

00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:12.079
apple comes out with i don't have an apple watch and literally everybody at

00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:14.399
the office has an apple watch yeah

00:12:13.040 --> 00:12:19.839
so uh there's your there's your uh explanation

00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:25.839
there press the ok button wheel on your remote okay i'm getting it god

00:12:23.040 --> 00:12:31.920
whoa whoa what oh that's the legs right holy crap

00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:31.920
that's a huge remote yeah

00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:42.079
wow that revolt is big you press the wheel

00:12:42.079 --> 00:12:46.399
yeah it looks pretty good to me that is sounds good to me

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:53.040
dang all right that's gonna just about do it i think we've got the tv mounted we've

00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:57.279
got the pc built everything is good to go

00:12:54.079 --> 00:13:00.079
so hopefully mark enjoys his newly

00:12:57.279 --> 00:13:05.440
upgraded spaces hopefully you enjoyed this video and part of uh Intel's

00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:08.480
extreme tech upgrade series mine was the first one but there's

00:13:06.880 --> 00:13:13.920
plenty more that you can watch there's david's there's andes there's Colton's

00:13:10.959 --> 00:13:19.120
there's riley's there's dennis's if we can twist enough arms at Intel we can

00:13:16.560 --> 00:13:25.040
get everybody one of these so stay tuned for more of these and thanks again for

00:13:20.959 --> 00:13:27.279
Intel sponsoring this series what is he

00:13:25.040 --> 00:13:30.160
he's a he's a chihuahua poodle and a few other things
