this is kind of neat I have cable managed this case um a good dozen or two
times before this is actually a case with which I am intimately familiar so
um I'm I'm pretty excited about the opportunity to work in it again it's
been quite some time now it does have
toolless uh Bays here but they are not
exactly the world's most elegant system this I won't
need so we're just going to try this
up so this is actually not the correct
threading for this piece so we're kind of creating our own threads as we
go lonus has to clean out his entire PC
to get started while Luke only has three parts to pop in to start overclocking
we're not sure what the outcome of this will be but we do know it will be close
he just isn't cleaning his stuff cuz he didn't find an advantage rag like I did
yeah see Advantage Rags are not real so
lanus is obviously in a stage of denial
at the moment it wasn't real how could I hold it in my
hand having already used his Advantage rag the Linus can be seen here using a
box or his
underwear or we can try and jury rig
this uh well we can take this off without damaging it without without too
much I think we should go for it I think
that like fiddle around for a little bit do a
little bit research see what this chip is capable of see what this board is
capable of see what see I hear them Whispering as if that'll
help I mean the shopping stage is done Luke so uh you know the fact that you
have crap Hardware uh no amount of keeping it
secret is going to keep it secret forever and then I'll tease you oh yeah
I forgot about that I'm sorry oh shoot I hope this has the right mounting
hardware in there oh hold
on okay so these are a little uh these are a little worse for the wear right
here so there here's a little trick you just give them the old
that so here we can
oh that is some rookie stuff right there I forgot
this I don't have time for his Shenanigans at this point in the
competition because winners do not
consort with people who don't win as
hard they don't consort with them yeah
that's right a shoot got it in there
once therefore I can do it again and that is why I have two children
yeah the only one around here with proof of his
virility how do you know cuz your mother would kill you the
way he good
point no no he's right my mom would kill me you'd be dead yeah you'd actually be
dead
yep did we bring out any zip ties no but
there might be some in the screw
bin that'll do
it okay oh
yeah oh that is a thing of beauty right
there fantastic oh I'm feeling good today
today yeah man my Mini Wheats are like I
ate them I crapped them out I ate them again I took a picture put it on
Instagram this was a real score like
this was probably worth a good chunk of the budget right
there coming along just nicely why don't you get the hell out of
here spy we don't hate you over here we
accept your kind yeah losers are stuck hanging out with the other
losers this is real good this is
trustworthy that's the difference between this and Snakes in the Grass
like
Luke oh I should have done this before I did the other thing oh oh I don't know
if it's going to reach are you missing my epic struggle
over here never
mind yes
oh yeah that table
management all right um all right now we
did specifically say that there would be demerit points for leaving the garage
and I don't need to leave the garage but I do need to walk over here so uh I'm
averting my eyes Burl will uh Burl will
hold this box or Taran is he still
here okay well someone someone will Burl
will supervise me here I got see my blinders yeah okay I got my blinders on
this box right here is called the fun box because there's a chair on top of
it for some
reason all right see this is something Luke wouldn't even think of needing
probably cuz I wouldn't need it cuz I'm not terrible
nice one of
these oh yeah oh
yeah let's get the oh yeah moment there we go all
right see you got a system fired up over there I hear keyboard Strokes no not at
all I didn't finish installing all my drivers like half an hour
ago oh what's that sound is that a hard drive oh interesting well I wouldn't
know what a hard drive sounds like I mean I'm all solid state over here
man here we go Chang to 340 with the
magic hands it'll boot
fine okay uh here's the moment we've all
been waiting for
mhm mhm what
oh done set your download yet um small problem I mean it's not a
big problem it's just a small one okay oh yes oh yes we got this this
is good so I don't think we have that no
we don't um I wonder what we can get out of
this baby wow it's been a really long
time no we're not going to quite go for that go
for about that we're going to go for
about that
instead of aiming for like ultimate why don't we aim for like
hi I think we should go ultimate you want you want to go ultimate yeah well
that tells Max possible settings in every game that tells me a lot about the
uh the way you weighted your uh your system good I don't know how much it'll
show on screen but uh don't my screen oh
okay
wow this takes a while to load
okay look what happened
there I literally didn't even change anything I'm going to turn this
off I opened After Burner and typed in a number didn't press enter and the screen
went black oh all right here it goes yeah
there's nothing on
screen
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh come on what
happened you take your you take your attempt I'll uh I'll shutter down it
looks like I might need to dial back a
thing crashing one has happened no
that's two crashes I wasn't benching yet
oh you said that like it was it's a
horrible don't worry mine didn't even start yet no my computer's better under
load it's like a rotary engine I got to get up to a certain RPM before the
computer actually runs I might be blaming you for this
what happened I I did nothing oh whenever I open executables the screen
goes black I was working on this last night and it was fine I haven't touched
it unless I came back here in the middle of the night I've been supervised the entire time
I've been here probably massively overused in so
this has an FPS counter on it I guess we're going to see my score so you might
as well uh check it out
that tearing whoa oh that artifacting does
that count against me I don't know I kind of I don't
know I think that's just part of
the frankly I can't tell oh no there's
some oh okay all right I think I think we have to call this one
off okay all
right seriously and then uh seriously
let's just load Up 3D Mark
here well I think I know something about his system I'm fairly sure that's a
reference cooler that is a sound I've heard before it has a particular
tonality to
it what it's terrible that doesn't seem
right it's not running in a full no it's
fine all right so
how how was yours here that's looking
higher turn the fans feed down and try it
again you still have to run actual games don't be too smug this is a graphics
Benchmark I'm just happy I won one of them I like a lot like two times was
that is that how that math works I think that was about two
times oh yeah
that's a crash unless your FPS is uh
1,600 it's 1900 I'm 2200 in counting
speed 2600 in counting it's ramping up do you see do you see this clear
glitching 100 times glitch exploit wait up no I'm trying to get it to 200 times
your speed in a couple seconds here all right why don't you go ahead and shut
that down and I'll take a run at this
this is the physics test yeah you didn't know there was a
physics test did you I did actually oh all
right so 5866 is the mark to beat okay
the first successful run perhaps still higher it's not as
higher nope still higher I might have been
drawing too much power that a hard drive is horrible I know like everything's
kind of working properly I didn't it did it start walking though I feel like it
started walking I don't
remember cuz remember yeah it was counting FPS it
crashed look at my signs is but look at the signs they're
still flicker not nearly as much though
I'm not I'm not saying a deduction plan all right here we go physics
test oh dear so what were you getting here 17 or something yeah
okay oh that is
terrible oo that looks pretty smooth you know what you're
oh oh the mountains start falling you get really bad you get
owned wow what did you get 5866 I think
what have you got
5745 what all
right what the hell is
this yeah just run it just run it and then we'll and then I'll go online I'll
see if that
helps fourth that's appropriate wow
average FPS 66.6 minimum minimum
4696 that's a pretty respectable minimum I don't know how bottlenecked you're
going to be there smooth I'm guessing
73 73 you're going to get you know I'm
going to guess minimum 58 yeah I'm not going to get at the
average oh son son you just got wrecked
okay so here's Luke's results Min 39
average 63.3 here's Linus's results Min
56 whoa average 82.1 all right oh oh wow
deduction points for really bad ensure Swift Victory with Corsair's
highly responsive lightweight gaming mouse the saber RGB click now to learn
more I originally thought you had a 7950 now I'm pretty sure you have a
7970 which means you spent about half of your budget on your graphics card I
think I know for sure you have you're
wrong wrong I know for sure you have a
dual core CPU because you because you
got absolutely destroyed you must have
ddr2 and I think you've got four gigs of RAM
you how did you get a
290 the the thing that's going to blow your mine though I have a q6600 ah I was
right oh what yeah and that that that
RAM and the dual core I think was the dual core is a little rough but I didn't
think you were going to come out with a quad core yeah I got a quad a I got a
quad core cool so really the big winner
the big winner would have been probably a combination of the two they could get
a 290 a Q66 8 gigs of RAM a good quality
power supply an aluminum fronted case if we took my card out of my system and put
it in here which is what that would have been that would be a pretty sick machine
for 380 bucks and that's still cheaper than all the consoles we looked at and
you could still buy one or two games to equal the console price I I think for
$300 if you can build a rig like this
then guys like there is at the you know
it's funny and I guess we'll make this the conclusion for this we get this a
lot where people uh criticize us for focusing really on the high-end stuff
and and the brands that make the most sense at the highend and they ask us
well why is that there's such great value stuff out there on the low end and
the answer is that if either of us were going to build a $500 machine we'd do
something like this we would do this we wouldn't be buying new I would have done
exactly what I did for the graphics card try and find one that I can get which
shouldn't be that cheap and then I would have not rush purchase that setup cuz it
came with a terrible motherboard cuz if you're smart and you're a good shopper
both of us were doing this at the same time with only 48 hours to turn around
all of these deals not even we realistically only had seven or eight
hours to contact people and pick up things and like go get them we ended up
with machines that we could easily resell for more than what we paid and to
match this performance buying new from the store would cost at least 50% more
or more so there you go guys used Hardware good value this was fun this
was really fun but you got wrecked you
got wrecked son that quadcore man that quadcore is pretty Beast so thanks for
watching guys this has been the very first round of scrapyard Wars we have
lots of great ideas coming for this series let us know in the comments if
you want to see more let us know how you liked the format it's a little different
