loud and we are live welcome to the live
stream guys we made
it here in our new studio space and we
have a new setup and of course that combines extremely well with
um what do you want nothing okay uh so
we're here in our new in our new studio with our new setup which includes sort
of running our third scene off of my laptop which apparently
this is stuck on something no I'll just pull on it that
can only end well that's not going to
doubt force it that's not going to end well wait a second it could end well no
it won yes it w see it ended well
because I I pulled on it which caused a problem for you and your sense of the
way things should work which meant you rushed over there and fixed it for me
that ended well pulling on cables is like so let's see if this is still
working hey hey that's still working too not a very good Tech tip Yank on the
cable Yank on the cables as long as there's someone nearby who cares about
that cable and will protect it from you that's my
kinu so I kind of oh oh and I was going
to break the mouse too excellent really this is yours yeah
oh cool all right so let's go ahead head
and I'm going to crack open the twitch chat also I think we've got a fair bit
to talk about this week because you were not here last week why don't you update
the audience on where you are even though I actually think I told them
probably about half a dozen times during the stream last week cuz people kept joining and then they kept asking so
carry on he said where I am so technically I'm in the new studio but
where I was was Korea and I didn't
actually land when the stream started I landed like a while after the stream
ended right yeah why did we think you were going to be on time for the stream
cuz we had your flight details like two three weeks before we left yeah I don't
know what happened I I don't know why we thought that possible hours late like
hours and hours late like I I didn't get home until well we went and had dinner
afterwards but I didn't get home if I minus the time of dinner I didn't get
home until like 10: which is hours after
the stream when did we well that would have been okay to join me during the old
is that what we were thinking that might have been it cuz technically we were still in the old stream time when we
first started doing the trip details that might be it but then we didn't
factor in okay so tell tell us about your trip to you've told me nothing about your trip to Korea what happened
that first night the first uh I don't know how much I
should have you heard anything about the first night no I know nothing huh how
into details I know you were I know you were stuck in Korea that's all I know
okay I'll go through the play byplay I don't know if I anyways I'll just do it
whatever um so I land my I have three
phones on me right now because I had the Note One blackberry and my S3 and I have
my laptop right right laptop's dead Blackberry is dead not's dead S3 has 13%
oh okay laptop's not dead laptop had about 15% S3 had about 10 15% okay so
everything's pretty much dead but my assumption was a ton of people in Taipei
could speak English oh yeah a ton of people you could get around fairly easily right yeah but there was a
convention in town but there was a convention in town but a lot of the people that just worked in the stores or
whatever could like at least point you in the right direction yeah however if
you're like t-shirt extra extra extra large they
could kind of handle it they could get you to where you need to go food water
hotel whatever kind of work no not in
Korea not in Korea the airport was good
and when I first land in the airport I was like all right I'm good this is good
by the way when I first land in the airport someone ran up to me cuz I'm wearing it's really bright in the area
cuz there's lights everywhere in white floors and I just got off a pitch black
plane cuz Ione have their Windows close so I had my aviators on cuz my eyes were
still readjusting so I have my aviators on I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt and
this dude runs up to me he's like military military military and he looks really angry and I'm like what the heck
and I kind of thought about it and we had talked about this previously all the
American GIS that are in oh some of that
is being happily accepted some of that is not being happily accepted so I
didn't know what this guy's position was but he was yelling military at me and looked really pissed off so I flashed my
Canadian passport and was like no no no no no no no no Canada has no military
it's okay we have some robots we make it by um I heard we had a submarine at one
point really like one why I don't know
anyway car no we bought it used from the British or something like that seems
like a terrible idea I know right man dumb anyways so a flash my
password whatever get it across that I'm not military he says okay and actually
was nice and end up escorting me to the like Express train into Soul so I get
onto the express train into Soul everything seems fine I ran into an
actually American GI there so I wasn't surprised that he was asking if I was
one um and I get to Soul station which
is like Soul Central Station it's this huge hub for Transit tons of trains and
everything all there um but then right when I get to Soul Central station no
one speaks English right I try to go get on one of
the trains and there's no like coin slot or Bill slot or anything so I have no
idea what's going on I see some people with these like cards that they're
hitting against the thing and it beeps so like I'm like okay like people have
NFC cards how do I get one of these like I have no idea what I'm doing I start
asking around I don't know what the currency rate is and I go to the ATM and
go to pull out money and the minimum pull out is like $50,000 right okay
right and I'm like whoa hope hopefully the conversion is
pretty uh pretty scaled out there because I have no idea how I'm pulling
how much I'm pulling out of the ATM um and my phone's dead and there's not very
much free Wi-Fi huh in Soul Central Station there was no free Wi-Fi right
okay which is nuts there's a McDonald's there there's a whole bunch of stuff
there that I would expect from being in Canada that there would be free Wi-Fi
there so I'm thinking okay I might be
getting through one of these Wi-Fi portals I might be able to get Wi-Fi
access because some of them I'm cing random Korean buttons hoping that it
works and like I think I might be getting through one but my phone's
starting to die because I've been doing this for a while I've been at Soul Central Station for a little while now
okay so I go to McDonald's hoping that they have Wi-Fi they don't but either
way I stash all my stuff I load up my laptop put it into sleep and close it so
that I can drain the battery from my laptop into my phone because at this point in time I'm like my phone's more
important and there's no plugs that I can use slick power management tips
right there drain your laptop into your phone yeah there's no there's no power
plugs like can use right okay cuz I have a like North American PL and you don't
have a travel adapter don't have a travel adapter because diesel does right
when you he was supposed to be going before you but it ended up that I was
going before him so I could catch WCS
Starcraft so sit down in this McDonald's trying to drain my laptop trying to
listen to people around me and catch keywords to see if I can like quick
translate anything on the fly like I'm trying to document everything I can
right yeah I start just writing down random names of the things at McDonald's
that I know would be like translations of
hamburger like so I can like ask for food and stuff like I'm trying to I'm
like I'm screwed I need to get whatever information I can because I'm
screwed and Brilliant me when I was in
the airport someone asked if I wanted a rental phone but it was $9,000 or 9,000
w a day okay so it seemed way too expensive I didn't know the currency
conversion so I didn't get it so I didn't have a rental phone yet
awesome and I knew there was other stuff could do and I assumed free Wi-Fi
everywhere and if free Wi-Fi was everywhere I knew I'd be able to make it buy right so I wasn't worried I could
WhatsApp diesel I could do whatever I could communicate I really assumed free
Wi-Fi everywhere because I'm in Korea right apparently that's not a thing um
so I don't have a rental phone all that kind of stuff while I'm sitting there um
this one chick looks at me and she's like hey are you new here in perfect
English and I'm like yes you can save me
this is so good um so I start talking to them for a little bit and then they're
like let's go get food so I'm like okay there's two of them yay we can go get
food so before I leave I get them to go to the ATM with me and help me figure
out what the currency conversion is ends up being super easy right um 200,000 is
basically 200 bucks okay there's a scale off like it's probably plus or minus 20
bucks or something but it's close enough that it's like okay somewhere around
there right so I pull out some money we go for food they teach me some of the
customs with like eating food and going to restaurants and how to like deal with
people and stuff taugh me a few words that could help me get by um like if
you're trying to hail someone down how to do it if it's a guy how to do it if it's a girl okay um hello sure just like
random little things like that like I learned some really basic stuff um and
they helped me out and then like we're going around cruising around checking
out different shops and different restaurants and stuff and I'm like hey I need to get like a hotel cuz I need to
sleep before WCS tomorrow cuz at this point I still want to go to the
Starcraft event right I haven't had that's a high priority oh it is it's
definitely a high priority Starcraft um
I've had no time online yet since hitting Korea right so I have no idea
what's going on which explains why I didn't hear from you yeah okay or anyone
like my mom's freaking out yeah you know my mom oh I'm sure your mom was freaking
out not happy um so I'm cruising around
you know she Facebooked me
right did she really yes well in Korea
asking if you had any info saying that because I think by the time I had
reached her she had heard from you so something about the only reason I'm
still alive is that she's heard from you by now or something like
that I sounds about right okay um so I'm
like hey I need to get somewhere I figure out that I'm in like the bottom
of soul and where I wanted to end up was way up in the top of Soul okay at this
point in time transit's down sure um
like I don't know how to talk to taxis like it's not a good situation okay um
so the one chick is like you can just stay at our
dorms that's what my mom did it ended up
being fine uhuh so I crashed on the floor of the one chick's dorm room and
then um the one girl's boyfriend took me
to WCS in the morning okay and then that was great and then I got to see I went
to gome Studio which is like my two two of my favorite casters tasteless and
osis not9 who is my actual favorite Caster but two of my favorite casters um
got to see them do the semi-finals which was great um talked to them got them to
sign my Starcraft box which I gave to my brother that was the box with the
writing okay sure I I brought my Starcraft Heart of the Swarm box I got
both of them to sign it CU my brother's a caster and he loves casters right so I
got them to sign that I ended up giving that to my brother and then I talked to
them about where the finals actually were because they were casting it as a
spectator oh oh okay okay so they had a camera on them and a screen in their
desk that was the Starcraft I see okay and when they're casting most of the
time the Starcraft stream is on the screen so they got to just stare at it and talk about it while was going on
right but they weren't actually live at the event and the event was in Korea so
I got to see the semi-finals with them which was awesome but then I wanted to go to the big Arena event cuz I was like
okay I'm in Korea I got to go to a Starcraft event in an arena CU that's
awesome so the tasteless which is one of
the guys um who like I didn't have a marker from to sign my thing cuz I don't
know how to buy a marker in Korea cuz I like couldn't find a stationary store
because I'm like where the heck am I supposed to go um I mean I don't want to
generalize but based on all the Korean exchange students that have ever come to
my school when I was in like high school and all the stationary that they carry
with them there should it should bewhere think they have stores for that should be every we ended up I ended up finding
an insane school supply station yeah like they probably have like every color
of every penc but that was a few days down not that I'm generalizing it's just
I mean you can't help but make observations anyway go ahead that yeah I
I did find that place um NG also known
as by now Diesel and I call them proxy
but that's a whole another story proxy sure oh oh okay yeah that uh intern guy
yeah he ended up showing us one it was awesome but that was a few days down the line that's when after I had met up with
both of them this was when I was still on my own um so tasteless and I are like
pulling out tables and stuff trying to find like
sliding tables away from walls trying to open drawers to find try and find a
marker he was actually pretty awesome I ended up finding a marker so he signed
the box for my brother I talked to him for a little bit and then he walked me outside and pointed down a bridge I was
just like go down there you'll see Arenas and then it's the one in the back
so I'm like okay time to go I guess so I
just walk down the street get to the Arenas walk through like some security
gate just pretended that I was totally confident there was totally nothing
wrong with me walking through the security gate like tall white dude in
Korea is's not going to stand out at all this is obviously fine right like no big
deal I'm just walking through no big deal no one stopped me which is great okay so I walked through the security
gate there's three huge Arenas and two of them are super super loud and have
tons of cars out them and are just absolutely massive and I'm like I think
Starcraft is a little bit smaller than that those ended up both being huge
baseball games going on at the same time okay and then so I walk through go to
the one in the very back so Starcraft isn't quite baseball yet that's what
you're trying to say no not quite they're trying though go to the back um
admittance was it cost it was a 10 deposit that I got
back or 10,000 W um to get a like little
radio thing I wore headphones for that I could get tuned into to the English
casters right because there was the Korean casters which honestly after a
while I just took it out because it was kind of cool to listen to the crazy
Korean casters right they're nuts cuz I
can kind of see what's going on it's kind of like badminton where there's uh
some of the uh some of the coverage on the Canadian feed had commentation but
it was like terrible whereas I'd rather
i' honestly I'd rather listen to it in like Danish because at least the guys
know when to be excited and like like the like the guys who don't really know
the sport very well they'd get like super excited about some shot and I'm like I can make that shot whereas like
the actual guys who actually know how to play the game or knew how to play it at
some point they yeah anyway so yeah well
like okay those Starcraft CS were actually good the English ones so it's
not I understand that analogy and I agree but it didn't really CU not quite
like that then but it was just entertaining to listen to the Korean
guys live cuz they're so crazy right so it was it was just kind of cool um and
to like feel the vibe of the crowd because everyone was just way more amped
than I've ever seen cuz the only thing I've gone to around here is barcraft
which is where people go to a bar and then all the TVs have Starcraft on them
right um and that's interesting but no one's really Rowdy right everyone was
crazy in the arena so that was kind of cool um end up trying to leave there and
figure out how the heck I'm supposed to get back to that dorm right cuz that's
where my luggage is right so jump on the
train hope I'm going in the right direction get off at some random stop
figure it out ended up getting there it actually wasn't that bad cuz soul is
actually really easy to navigate around cuz the train system is like super
intricate but if you at least know what stop you're supposed to get off on it
can kind of lean you there okay it's not really that big of a deal got there
eventually hung out with them for a while okay now this is Sunday diesel
should be in town um I need to get up to
the hotel so I can meet up with him right um I go around the Subway or yeah
Subway really really quickly get up there try and get a cab to Rada where we
were staying took me to Grand Hyatt which is way across town and then I had
to try and get all the way back eventually made it that was ridiculous
and then the actual Korea trip started which was fairly not very eventful
except for a Changing of the Guard ceremony that Diesel and I participated
in which I'll try and get pictures for you we acted as commanders in The
Changing of the Guard ceremony it was
epic what I I was Googling up stuff to do in
Korea and they're like changing the guard ceremony they only do like one person a day it's like this big thing so
I was like let's do it so I talked to proxy and I was like can we do this so
he hooked it all up and we ended up going and put us in full costume with
like a real sword and a real bow and arrow and everything and then we like
marched out with everyone and had to go through this like cryptic process to make sure we're the same people and you
like put coins together and make sure they match and check for a key and do
all this stuff it's crazy and we were in front of all these people that were
watching and it was nuts W that's really cool it was pretty cool other than that
it was just like shopping all right so let's talk Xbox one so this is Xbox 180
Xbox yeah Xbox
180 so this is from IGN from a couple days ago you guys have probably heard
about this but what you haven't heard is any of Slick's take on the whole NextGen
console Xbox One Thing Beyond some of the early news that was coming out so
I'll run you through quickly through the details of this one so contrary to
everything Microsoft has set up till now they are completely turning around on
everything so it no longer requires an internet connection to play offline
games no longer needs to check in 24 hours a day now allows game discs to be
traded in much the same way that they used to so disc based games operate the
way they used to whereas uh games that
are based around downloads will operate according to your account from from what
I've seen in here uh what else we got here no uh no no restrictions on
trade-ins no region locked consoles honestly that was the one where I was
just like is this April fools you're going to launch a console in like 2122
countries whatever it was I mean that was ridiculous did you even see that one yeah yeah and it was like a whole bunch
of Asian countries it wasn't being released in are you crazy it's like oh
yeah no we don't need to release in China or India because China and India
don't play video what are you nuts anyway uh and I think Japan wasn't even
on the list there was a few ones that made me yeah that honestly like it
looked like they were joking at that point um in addition to being available
in retail stores Xbox One games will still be available to download on day one and will be playable on any Xbox One
console so that sounds like it's account based um so here this is the part that
is really most notable to me uh since unveiling our plans for Xbox
One my team and I have heard directly from many of you read your comments and
listen to your feedback I would like to take the opportunity today to thank you
for our assistance and helping us reshape the future of Xbox one you told
us how much you love the flexibility you have today with games delivered on dis the ability to lend share and resell
these games at your discretion is of incredible importance to you also important is the freedom to play offline
for any length of time anywhere in the world
I'll let you go first basically what I think happened was they were second on
Amazon pre-order sales mm and they were like oh no how do we take that first
spot huh I'm not really sure what do
everyone like more about the other conso okay I guess we should maybe change a
few things so we can get that top dollar spot I think that's what happened cuz
that's the only thing okay the company's going to change something so they can make more money it's a company you're
supposed to try and make more money that's the whole idea of a company so
while I don't necessarily think the idea of making more money is evil or bad NOP
lus Media Group needs to make money we need to make more money throwing that out there and we will do things that
help us make more money yes um I think they I like to think we don't bone our
viewers over it yeah I was just going to say they went way too far like orders of
magnitude way too far and then reeled it
all the way back which was a good move I don't know if it's too little too late I
don't know if everyone's too angry already did you hear about the like Mass
returns of Xbox 360 stuff tra in stuff
people were trading in everything they had really here's my console here's all
my games at like stupid low tradein prices because everyone is doing it so
so now's a good time to get an Xbox 360 on the cheap probably I would assume I
don't really know if we wanted to play Xbox 3 you know I had a lot of people
criticizing me last week for talking consoles at all because I said outright
the last console game I bought was Mario Kart Wii and then the one before before
that was probably on this NES and people were like well if you don't buy it then
you don't have the right to talk about it and I was just kind of like
well okay you know duly noted but I
don't think playing Gears of War makes me more qualified to talk about an
Xbox I think it could help do you think it could help if I play GE of War could
help because then you're more in tuned you know like you're more in tuned with
the whole system mhm if you if not necessarily the act of purchasing a game
but if you actually play on the console you probably have more to say about it
okay that much is true you you would you probably already have a minimum amount
to say about it I don't think that's invalid because you don't play on it but
I think you could have more to say about it well they said they wanted to hear from you more because you are an actual
gamer so that's why that's why I'm kind of letting you go first here on this one
okay even though I it should be noted when was the last time you played a game
on an Xbox an Xbox M broke or an Xbox
360 mine broke yours how many times did yours break
four I think I have three on my shelf
that are all dead but I think one of them was exchanged for warranty so I
think I think it was four but I currently have three broken ones on a
shelf okay and you don't have a working one no and one of them like so so out of
the two of us I'm the only one with a working Xbox 360 but I played a lot I
played on Xbox 360 if so there you go guys that's why slick will do most of
our uh most of our console talk but my
brother and I took one of them had a dead optical drive the other one had a
dead motherboard so we zombied two of them together right we were riding on
that for a little while and then that one kind of died right like man okay so
here's my take whether you guys think I should be allowed to talk about it or not and I mean okay maybe I'm giving
them the benefit of the doubt much the same way we've done to EA before and as
much as it hurts me I mean I love Microsoft I love so many of the things
they do and as much as it hurts me to utter their name under in the same
breath as the it almost feels like what they've done
here is intentionally be as terrible as
they possibly can for all of the press
and all the talk and all the buzz so
that they can have as much impact as possible when they reverse all of it
because if they were really trying to get away with all this stuff did they
have to go trickle it out yeah did they have to go full stop no we're going to
go as people have said this is the Xbox 180 do we do we need to do a full
reversal of absolutely everything why
why couldn't they still do account-based games I actually don't understand why
you can't have an account-based game I and
like oh there's a lot to say on that okay there's a lot to say I mean why
can't it work something like steam though that's an account-based gaming
system yeah you sign in and then see I'm I'm going to keep
doing this look at he looks like he's going to explode so you sign in and then
once you've signed it so you boot up and sign in then it's validated for a while
I actually don't have a problem with that it's never bothered me I've never been offline long enough that it's
bothered me I've had my computer offline for insane amounts of Time how long is
the time frame for steam yeah it's I I think it's at least a week I or like 5
days or three days or something like it's multiple days I'd be surprised if it was that short it might veryy by it's
pretty freaking long so so if they' implemented something like
that and like another thing though with steam um with their new leaked code
thing oh yeah no no we talk about that later okay okay well that ties in so
well uh okay fine we'll talk about that now so okay okay okay so there's a few
lines of code that came out in a new beta patch yeah um which basically
stated in the lines of code shared game borrowed game lending game kind of
phrases two weeks someone says more than two weeks either way it's a long time
it's a long time yeah um which basically
means there's a high possibility that you are going to be able to lend share
borrow games through Steam so people would be able sool so cool so you would
be able to like I guess temporarily remove your ability to play it from your
library and allow your friend to play it which is the exact same thing as taking
a disc from your house giving it to your friend and not being able to play it for
a little while except your friend could live in like Sweden yeah ah so cool
which is awesome like that's really really cool again uh one of our mod just
said 90 days that sounds more right that sounds that sounds too much I've like I
was pretty sure it's really long cuz i' I've I've had it be really long before I
don't know if that's right or not anyway I mean I think the I think the the
protection from someone like valve is
well you don't let people log into your Steam account because then you're boned
yeah I mean and I don't mind that as far as protection goes I mean use twep
because they do use twostep when you log in from an unfamiliar I love their twep
and their twostep is great so if Microsoft were to implement it exactly
that way you would not lend your Xbox account to
someone like you just wouldn't so but
they should allow the sharing thing but they should allow the sharing thing so
anyway like do you think it's just that no press is bad press and it was like a
strategy I don't think so or is that just too insane I think it's too insane
is that any less insane than if they actually did that than if they actually
Prett close what's more insane they
developed all these systems I think they were going to try I think they didn't think it was going
to be that big of a deal how could they possibly think that because Xbox is
huge so is PlayStation yeah they have a
competitor but who don't worry about
it but at the same time a lot of people were expecting PlayStation to be at a
much higher price point and I wonder if Microsoft thought
the same price point like PlayStation's
cheaper and it's cheaper significant amount but a lot of like play uh
Playstation 3 came out at a huge price point yeah that's true so if Microsoft
was expecting a similar idea they shouldn't have everyone already knew
that both Microsoft and Sony were going to be using pretty much the same fraking
Hardware y except Sony doesn't have a
like Grand scale webcam that comes with it which people don't want which people
well I would probably use it a lot of people don't want okay many people don't
want but I think I think a lot of the mainstream folks who are not Reddit
junkies and yeah but it's not just Reddit junkies that are scared of the
constant surveillance that's true that's true but they've also come out and set a
few things about the constant surveillance I mean having it listening
for microphone commands is a little bit different from having it recording every
conversation and then but then all the same time all that stuff going on with prism and everything you don't really
know what's happening that's true and I'm like I don't want to get way into
that we're not saying Microsoft is in any way involved in prism just that
thing exists yeah and they're a company that has data and and and and whatever
um figure that out on your own I guess
um but yeah I'm not way too into
that yeah okay all right I don't know so
anyway yeah valve allowing lending of
games potentially at some point that's going to be super cool that's awesome
like okay now I don't think they're going to have the uh bring in a friend
thing that you used to be able to do basically with like Warcraft 3 and stuff
where if spawn install spawn install yeah I don't
think they're going to though because that would be way too I mean they'd have to that would be license that would be a
license thing that have to figure out on a game by game basis yeah that would be
awesome like okay nothing about this I just randomly brought this up that would
be cool though and maybe if you can do it with every person like twice maybe
right per Steam account like that would be pretty
cool sure that would be pretty cool just
so the person can try out the game cuz there's a lot of games I'll talk to my friends about and like you got to get
this game it's pretty cheap you should buy it it's amazing so if you could lend
someone I wonder if the lending will be like uh long-term lending or if they'll
only allow like short period lending I mean it's possible they just I mean you
look at sort of when valve announces or starts talking about something or you
catch something three years five years yeah they might still be working on
implementation they might have put it in there just to kind of use it internally
maybe they only maybe they created the tool just for
themselves you never know that would be pretty Li nightmare this all speculation
and I really hope it happens I don't know it's just a few
lines of code that a few people found in their new build right so it could mean
realistically anything okay so topic you
know what let's do a Twitter Q&A uh Twitter Q&A blitz so here we go guys hit
us on Twitter uh did you hear about the
new rumors for halflife 3 and I think he means wait what source 2 oh source 2
engine I heard it was half Half Life 3 and something else three Half Life 3 is
on Steam but not for sale someone just told me what anyway you heard about this
I I heard that there was there was a there was a rumor and hold
on holy no no no no no no no no no no no
that's a that's a prank look at the URL it's someone sent it to me too I was
like come on man a Stern poers d e a r n
m or something you can tell because the picture's all yeah no no no no ignore
that uh there was a rumor though that half lifee 3 will be coming at some point uh someone says New Star Citizen
video okay I'll check it out yeah uh are tablets worth it that totally depends on
your use Cas subjective go subjective so if well it's subjective yeah so go
what's your subjective okay if if like if you're someone who wants to hang out
on the couch watch TV a lot and be able to do emails and stuff while you're on the couch I think that's awesome if you
basically need a laptop I wouldn't suggest buying a tablet as a laptop
replacement I would actually just buy a laptop the only time I ever really use
my t just to watch videos on the bath so yeah that's it so honestly I see tablets
less as a super portable thing as or more as something to carry around the
house or as like instead of a notepad like sometimes I'll set up a tablet on a
stand so that I can refer to it during an unboxing definitely uh he lus at
computex did you see the refresher on the 600t I did not unfortunately uh my
friend brought a Mac bought a Mac Pro for $3,800 and uses it for only Facebook
uh he says Mac is better than PC how hard should I smack him there's no point
smacking him because negative reinforcement is not how they learn
positive reinforcement man did you sign the petition for Tom Clan's The Division
I did did you why because I want to play Tom Clancy's division on PC okay it's
it's the the the petition is to bring Tom Clancy's division to PC all right
and Ubisoft Ubisoft is pushing it they're like yeah yeah sign it sign it
so do you think Microsoft would do something like releasing a system that's around $400 Before Christmas it depends
how hard people don't buy the Xbox one that comes with connect saw a viio 14in
Ultra look on the background of your keyboard unboxing review soon yes also
we're going to be doing like a cool lifestyle type video that features that
particular notebook it isn't an Ultrabook though it's actually a 15in
and it's like a super slim touchscreen notebook with a quad core someone says
check this out with no link Half Life 3 on Steam not for sale
no it isn't uh will there be changes to the computex giveaways potentially but
no promises yet so stay tuned for that
uh will there be any hard drive cage add-ons for the card buide 540 possibly
to the back or have to mod it I believe I said in the video that you can add
more no maybe not I don't know so don't
don't quote me on that what do you think of having a code in dis based games that
lets it be account bound if you want you're on is that not how a lot of them
work I think dis based games are dis based games according to the article
that we had up for Xbox for Xbox okay I didn't realize that was I think I think
he's talking Xbox I snapped to like PC stuff right there um I don't know if you
if options are good in my opinion okay
if you want it to be account bound that would be cool if but having the option
to not apply that code would also be cool according to this post by Valve
employee offline mode is intended to be basically indefinite now very cool so
you guys can click on that one if you want to check that out awesome watching live in the UK determined to watch all
the way through thanks man hello you can buy games from Steam from
different retailers which means discounts you can only buy digital games for Xbox from Ms what games for steam
can you buy from different re yeah like if it comes with a steam code in a box
well no there's stuff like Humble Bundle yeah and there's other places that you
get steam codes for games I think that might be what he means I'm not really sure I mean I found it's uh a lot of the
time steam's cheaper anyway yeah to be honest they have insane sales speaking
of which summer sale has got to be coming fairly soon oh yeah summer sale
the first year they did summer sale I probably spent like a couple hundred
bucks on just a bunch of games that I've like never played never played yeah but
the problem is I'll do it again which is just oh I know right it's kind of
ridiculous and like I understand it doesn't make any sense cuz I still
haven't played a lot of games from the last summer sale I'm was like oh it's a
really good deal it's like 85% off uh my
360 has also been bodge where are you from what does bodge mean I hate it
maybe I should just get a new one I just want Halo that's it all right so why
don't we move on to our next topic which
happens to be actually I'm going to combine this topic with uh with another
one Microsoft offering schools and colleges 199 Surface RT tablets this
article is from Daily Tech so Windows RT
hasn't been the most popular Microsoft product Daily Tech writes Master of the
obvious there but hey for anyone who hasn't heard of Surface RT which I think
is a lot of people that might be a relevant thing to say Microsoft will
soon introduce the surface for Education limited time offer this month which will
offer discounted surface RTS to schools and colleges interested in adopting the
tablet for only $1.99 the Surface RT retails for $4.99 if schools want blah
blah blah etc etc expected further details and I wanted to tie this into
another article that is related also on
Daily Tech at the same time Apple scores $30 million iPad contract from the LA
School District launches Apple camp for
youngsters the LA Unified School District is paying
$678 per iPad which will come pre-loaded
with educ software but won't include a
keyboard they have a three-year warranty that includes free replacement devices
up to 5% of the value of the purchase price the 30 million for iPads is a
steep contract price but La District insisted on the measure because new
state and National tests will be taken on computers so people have to learn to
use computers etc etc that my friends is
all you need to know about Microsoft Windows
RT for onethird of the Price Less Than
onethird of the price and if they bought in that big of bulk they probably could
have got an even better deal oh man they still are not winning
bids I mean okay honestly that La School
District deal was probably in effect that was probably in in talks for a long
time and it's it's not necessarily an indication that La School District was
looking at Surface RT versus iPad and ended up going that route with in the
context of the 199 deal but it's just those two things coming out I think they
were posted on Daily Tech on almost the same day I was just kind of looking at
it going wow that's how dominant apple
is in the tablet space I mean Android has made up enormous ground on phones
Android is number one for phones now and that's fantastic and that's cool and as
someone who has recently switched to Android and is loving it I love that too
but on the tablet side what would you use if someone were to give you a
tablet but you know I wouldn't use a tablet it doesn't matter they they're
going to give it to you you don't have to use it but you have to have one you
can give it you can give it away you can sell it it doesn't matter like vendor trash pawn it to be honest I would never
use it it doesn't matter someone's giving it to you for free they refuse to
give you anything but a
tablet and remember your options are basically Windows 8 Windows RT and iOS
and Android if I could get the full Windows 81 okay no your options are
window Windows RT iOS and Android let's go with ARM operating systems if I could
get the full Windows 81 I get the full Windows 81 hand it's actually a terrible
experience really it really terrible because I haven't used it the problem is
that there's like I cannot make myself use modern UI even on a tablet I just
can't do it it's just not but you can
functional desktop applications yes you can but using Windows 8 in desktop mode
with a touchcreen is really not any better than using Windows
7 it's just not the buttons are still tiny the things like you can enlarge
stuff I know but it's like okay you haven't done it I know I'm telling you
you do it does weird stuff like when you click the like when you open up a
keyboard and this is weird because it was doing it on my tablet the other day when I was trying to use it for
something you open up the keyboard it takes your Windows and it like resizes
them and then you close the keyboard and they stay up there and I'm just like
really like really and I know it's meant
to be used in modern UI and I understand that but like really also I'd always
have the keyboard cover on anyway iPad hands down for me for tablet experience
there is no comparison whatsoever I don't really have enough experience I
would like to say Android but the one Android tablet that I've used and only
one that's the Transformer right the original Transformer was not a very good
use case and honestly that had the latest software at the time like it
wasn't like it was running like at time yes but this was a while ago but that
was Ice Cream Sandwich yeah I never liked ice cream sandwi sandwich though
yeah I mean it I I don't think the tablet experience has changed much since
Ice Cream Sandwich so and I mean yeah okay I'm sure there's feature here and
feature there but but like I don't like iPad either
okay I don't know I'm not a tablet guy
if I'm laying on the couch and I need to check my email I'm completely cool with
he's in my phone okay I don't see why I
need this like slightly bigger one I actually type faster on a phone than I
do on a tablet yeah me too that's for sure by a lot yeah so I don't know I'm
I'm really not into tablets all right tell us about your uh NASA which is
completely different from NSA we're not talking about that other thing so this
is kind of cool if you if you go to a link that's in this article uh maybe we
can tweet it out or something I'll try we could just click on it here they're
looking at it it's a billion pixel it's
a billion oh right okay you might not want to click on that might crash the
stream yeah so it's it's I haven't looked at it yet um but it's apparently
an awesome semi- Panorama or completely panorama pixel uh picture which is a
billion pixels and it's supposed to just look very very cool of Mars it was where
they were picking up some like dust and sand and rocks and stuff it's the C
Curiosity Rover and it's actually pretty freaking cool I like it when NASA sends
back like a bunch of really cool pictures and stuff I don't know for how
little funding they get they're quite
interactive oh NASA you used to be everyone's favorite child and now you're
just just don't get much funding yeah
all right why don't we do a Twitter Blitz everyone hit us on Twitter
actually what we'll probably end up doing is going through most of the Twitter questions we got last time I
love how we actually didn't set up a light in here so we're just relying on
the light coming in from that window over there which is actually darkening
as the stream goes on making it so that we're getting pretty dark here but H
there's uh that's fine all right how do you like your new BlackBerry
in two words three words or less the the conclusion video isn't out yet yeah
conclusion video is not out yet whatever just tell them uh I I will be you I
can't do returning to S3 okay there you go I
was thinking I'm not switching would have also worked okay but either way I
think we achieved the so do you know if this is real okay I'm not oh my goodness
how are people do you not do you not read URLs before you click on them let
me tell you in their defense the r going to the end does kind of look like an M
as a seasoned internet
user I look carefully at that URL before I click it okay tuning in from Croatia
sweet I I hate that so much because I have to click on the window in order to
use the mouse to scroll or the wheel to scroll but then it always expands people's tweets what is rant 30 I don't
know okay I recognize that Tablet Plus NES emulator isn't that a thing Logan
does uh rant 30 like inbox exe and the tech
are the only ones I know I think he does rant 30 does he do a new rant thing I
think so oh okay let me see you keep
going uh watching the Line Tech tips live stream yay while finishing up my
keyboard okay maybe changing out keyc
Caps or something like that changing out key caps cleaning something sure will
you purchase I still got to play a Starcraft game with you I recognize that Twitter will you purchase either of the
new consoles yeah Tech Syndicate rant 30 um
no no probably not or I'll wait until like the next iteration cuz there's
going to be like you know it's going to be like 10 years right yeah but it's
going to you're going to be like in your mid-30s by the time you can buy one of
these because the new one's out no I don't mean next Generation as in like
PlayStation 4 and Xbox whatever the heck they decide to
name it I mean like Xbox Elite
PlayStation slim like like the the new model cuz there's always the new like
the lower power one that comes all the features the original one should have so
I'm going to wait for like the the nicer models so you're waiting for service
pack one basically okay because then at the same time there will be more games
right okay cuz buying buying consoles at release and as far as I know these ones
will have a huge plethora of games which will be nice um but buying consoles at
release I find there's usually not enough going to be a half a
dozen games that are maybe worth playing yeah you know I'm I'm sticking with my
whole thing where I always own like the previous generation one so when when uh
when PS1 came out actually no I never did get an m64 okay okay we're not
including we but when PS2 came out I got a PlayStation one like right at that
time when PlayStation 3 came out I got a PlayStation 2 super cheap boom I I I've
only played like two games on it though I played through all actually no more
than that I played through all of the PS2 final fantasies okay so but honestly
they started getting really terrible like X2 was just awful uh Final Fantasy
MMO apparently is re-releasing it it's supposed to be way better than it was
never it's an MMO I'm not paying a subscription to play a game is it a
subscription one I don't know I don't care yeah I'm not really that interested
other CL online's coming the okay yeah I
won't talk about it yeah don't stop talking you know you know what's funny
is I believe there was a tweet or something in twitch chat last time around was like oh Slick's not here we
won't have to hear about all Scrolls I didn't get in the beta again
anyways um uh watching live from Brazil
hello hello can you clone your hard drive to an SSD without losing your OS
yes yep in fact Corsair has a kit Intel
drives include it Samsung drives include the software um and if you don't have
any software uh crucial has a kit that you can buy with their drives uh left
for dead three that was that was the other one that was rumored to be coming
although quite frankly if it's anything like Left for Dead 1 to Left for Dead 2
in terms of changes then you know what valve whoa whoa whoa that's not a middle
technically yeah all right but either way um yeah that was that was not worth
the 50 bucks or whatever I paid for Left for Dead too it was the same game it was
like yeah we changed the skin color of like the chick and the dude we swapped
them there was a pallet swap I played Left 4 Dead a bit but I didn't play Left
4 Dead too was the same game wasn't there like a few more different they
added some monsters it could have been a DLC for $4.99 it was a full game release
yeah it was brutal uh what's a good PSU a single GPU PC um depends on right now
that kind of depends on what CPU you're running with Haswell coming around yeah
that's true get a Haswell ready one so it supports the Deep Sleep States and uh
I don't know I mean if if you're running a Haswell chip you can get quite low how
about what's not a good PSU really really really really low
wattage or way way way way way too high wattage wasting money any good brand
name you know 500 to 600 watt is going to be pretty safe for almost any single
GPU you know Corsair Cooler Master seic
antech with with with uh Ivy I saw a lot
of people going 600 watt but Haswell now I've seen a lot of people dropping it
down to 500 watt everyone seems fine in our Haswell build guide where we put in
a GTX 780 right we put in what like a
520 watt power supply didn't even come
close to maxing it out totally fine yeah love the show thank you y we love you
too Saleem VFX uh good morning from Romania oh oh I have actually this is
not related to Twitter we'll get back to Twitter in a moment but we're looking at
potentially adding a call-in segment right soon so guys we might I don't know
how long it'll be I don't know exactly how it's going to work yet buts are
going to be interesting we're going to do a trial run next week and then the
official one sponsored by our unnamed sponsor who will be announced at some
point will be probably the following week but we haven't gotten 100%
confirmation on that yet cool that's going to be very cool uh
there we go good morning from Romania hi LCD or LED go watch the video on Tech
quickie LCD versus LED they don't happen to be different things necessarily have
you seen how to uninstall macafee antivirus on YouTube uh no I haven't if
it's anything like the how to install iOS 7 video it's probably just
ridiculous yeah uh Left 4 Dead 3 also
why you know say Linux like your name with an
X oh Steve that's the worst question I think 's ever sent into this show uh
because it's not my name well even the
Linux guy's name is lonus the same is mine what kind of question is that Linux
isn't a name yeah are you leaving yeah oh okay
do you want to pop in and say hi do you guys want diesel to pop in and say hi
hold on I'm going to check and see if twitch chat even wants you to he wanted
me to knock on the wall no if they don't if they don't want you to then uh we're
not going to oh oh unanimously no
no no they're they're all saying yes they're all saying yes you can come join us so guys if you if you haven't if you
haven't seen them already get comfy diesel the intern joining
us okay now I'm GNA go okay all right good night see you Monday
see youing yeah for those of you who don't know we're in the new HQ so everyone's
uh everyone's here we're all uh we're all working enjoying our linous Media
Group uh lucrative high-paying jobs that
shut up that YouTube money
right whatever man khakis is Australian
for car keys I actually kind of believe that although I think you're pulling my
leg uh what fans do you recommend for the h100 hold on hold on hold on you got
three guesses in the first two don't count Noctua what model n12 Noctua n12
thank you same check out our check out our cooling benches they're really
freaking good you know what here is here's something that I would like to
get some feedback from the viewers on and uh okay so so we're done with a
Twitter with that Twitter Blitz for now guys you know how much I love Noctua
okay so I you probably know how much I love
Noctua Noctua doesn't really do a lot of
marketing like have you ever seen have
you ever seen a nocta ad ask yourself that however much you also happen to
love Noctua if you love them as much as we do one quick thing I'm going to Jud
in when we going through the computer like crazy computer shop area in Korea
there was a store that only sold Noctua products that's awesome it wasn't a no a
store called lus store no oh okay well they should have they should have been
called it should have been called the Linux store because apparently that's my name now I it sells only fans so we've
been talking to Noctua they know how much we love them and their products we
were blown away by the cool fraking stuff that uh that we saw at their booth
at computex and we basically sat down with them and we went look
we love your products we want to pimp your products we pimp your products even
though you've never spent a dollar with us in terms of sponsorship or
advertising cab roll is there any way
that you guys would consider sponsoring Us in some way so that if we're going to
pimp your products anyway we can at least turn this into like some kind of
mutually supportive relationship because let me tell you nocta has already
noticed how much traffic is coming to their website from lus Tech tips Forum
cool and I was like you know what's funny is what you've probably seen a lot
of is um I don't I think these fans are
ugly but lonus recommends them for some reason so I might as well look at so you
should probably buy them and they were it's funny because they're their
engineer burst out laughing he was like yeah that's exactly what they
said it's like these ugly fans that inexplicably lius gets like a raging B-
word over so anyway I was like I was sitting
down with them and I'm like how do we make this something that makes sense
that doesn't compromise our integrity because honestly I don't want it to be
like a paid thing yeah because we'll Honestly though it it and we'll we'll
continue doing it even if they don't give us a dollar because we do so much
already cooler reviews anything that ever needs a fan even in the room tour
we shot the other day of this room you brought I know I'm like there's my pile
of nocas that I don't actually use in my own system man the new black ones
though I need those they're like $30 a
fan people buy them though a thing like
okay I saw one complaint about the uh brown rubber uh noise dancing thing on
the corners they're not that bad and you can take them off you can take them off
yeah well you can take them off on the current on that's true so I'm assuming
you can take them off okay that's true okay so guys we want your feedback how
could lonus Tech tips possibly collaborate with in with Noctua in some
way that wouldn't bother you guys but that would be you know somehow help less
Media Group pay our bills because we have a lot of them so I'm I'm going to
the Twitter boards and I'm opening up the twitch chat and I'm going to look at what you guys have to say I'm going to
try and read the twitch chat but y'all don't have a whole lot of uh oh my
apparently there's like massive horse penises in the twitch chat so we're
going to go to uh we're going to go back to Twitter
here uh I okay I have no idea that
anyway fan controller yes or no um I
personally don't like manual fan controllers because I think they're super pointless you're never going to
touch it yeah uh but automated fan controllers yay stuff like T balancer
which we both you get yours working yeah oh cool okay U stuff like T balancer
which we both have is amazing did you get it like configurable working like I
sent you the software patch and all that man that's ridiculous it's really hard we should do a guide on
that I wonder how I already forgot how to fully do it it took me a while well
it took me hours the first time back when I did it like 3 years ago and then
it took me hours the second time even with your like kind of ghetto guide
thing that you gave me like it took me a long time comments on how iOS 7 looks um
honestly I am I find it extremely confusing some of the visual changes
that they've made in iOS 7 I don't think it contributes in any meaningful way and
Marcus brownley uh has a fantastic video
sort of covering how the Innovative features in iOS
7 kind of not that Innovative to elaborate I'm running a GTX 570 sorry
man we got that out of order much I can do Sheamus I have ios7 working fine cool
beans GTX 780 versus 770 I don't see a compelling reason to grab a 770 versus a
used 680 for example um I would grab a
780 however 780 is Beast if I had the
budget for it 780 and 770 is not the same ballpark they are not on the same
tier in a way that we actually haven't seen in many generations the top tier
card in fact I don't think we've ever seen this before not that big of a spread as far as I know that's insane
like 90 even like 9700 Pro 9500 Pro same
GPU architecture I don't think we've ever seen it not the same
GPU for the top tier and the next tier well isn't it gk110 and gk104 yeah yeah
cuz the G I know what you're saying like this is the first time we've seen it sorry I thought you were saying the
exact same one I realized what you're saying now but like charts break because
of it yeah I know it's like yeah like Slick's having trouble
with our uh 40 new interactions anything to say
about the 8,000 series nope if you make
a military build it's the only way no look good in a case true Dad I'm looking
for a gaming mouse without a ton of buttons for MMOs can you recommend me
stuff course their M40 actually looks compelling and Death Adder 2013 if you
don't mind the hair trigger buttons which are driving me crazy if you need a
bigger Mouse Funk ms3 Funk ms3 Is Not a Bad Bet either I would do a build video
with all no tour products and show how to install use and they sponsor it
that's actually not a bad idea where we do an ultimate silent build which I
think everyone should be on the same page would contain nocta products yeah
that's not a bad idea yeah okay uh we need to fight bandwagoning and single
brand bias you should be impartial be quiet! and Fant text is equal more or
less no they're not so there um do you
hate origin or
ea uh why not make KN to a commercials your commercials are awesome H the
commercials are a huge up front investment and I think noctu is looking
for more like you know um they're very
practical yeah as you may or may not have noticed from the design that goes
into their products they're they're going to be more into some s some type
of tech tip or some type of guide something like that they're a very
technical community like a guide is more something that I can imagine them being
interested in where it educates their their users in some meaningful
way um I only ever use no toz as all my case fans what about 29in monitor I have
no idea how those two things are related ads before actual video content
like we normally do wouldn't bother me okay how about a Linus design fan like
how Pro Gamers have mice and keyboards you know what honestly I pitched it um I
I wanted to do it I was like guys let me
at one of your products let me make some tweaks that I think will make sense
visually and uh let me turn it into something that I would proudly put in my
system because as much as I love no to one I refuse to use anything else on
like test benches or whatever else they still haven't found a home in my system
even though they are superior to every product I use in my system and I know it
because I just can't handle the looks although the new black ones will they
will change all that oh my goodness they look so good super excited about that um
I feel as though even being paid by Noctua wouldn't be a bad thing as
they're a great brand yeah still though get Linus to replace the girl in the top
corner of no. yeah I'm not as hot as her I haven't
seen her but I'm sure that I'm not as
attractive uh I'm going to start putting
lus sent me here in my comments for products very nice uh just be like lonus
uses these fans put them in your build though I can't I can't until the black
ones come then I will then I will mark my words I believe it have the fans
installed in all your cases water and rad so so more like a product placement
thing we already we already kind of do it even we totally don't already do that
I know we should totally have a contest
where you PID had entered into a no to a contest I could use some fans you could
use 10 bucks we don't want to take money from the community for I don't like
those kind of contests at all they seem so scammy yeah I
don't uh put your face on the fan boxes
have Josh from fractal as a booth babe show off the no fans goodness that would
work fractal has fans so I don't know that they're going to want to do that
build a comp together computer together with nox you know what something like a
sponsored build where we do like ultimate silence build might make a lot
of sense maybe I'll reach out to them with that something that could be really
cool it's really far away and probably super impractical but if you could go to
their facility and see how they test like noise levels and all that other
kind of stuff because we've done that before but knock TOA doesn't that would be phenomenally expensive though you
have to fly at least me plus one like I said super not practical to Austria
super far away you know what's funny it would just be really cool I'm convinced
at this point that all Austrian computer companies know each other uh you know
what they do what are you trying to do here go uh do another Topic in the
meantime wow that was random um let me find the topic list and find something
to talk about
uh wow I don't have anything on here
sorry guys give me a
second it's open in a tab on yours yeah sorry give me one sec
and it's to it to the screen okay I don't know how to do that
I'm going to jump into something super random he has it titled
as erotic adventure with oculus rift so
basically what's going on is people are developing games for Oculus Rift already Oculus Rift is virtual reality that goes
on your head it's freaking awesome I've tried it check out our what is it called
Omni video to see Oculus Rift in action
Oculus Rift is very very cool another thing to check out on the same topic is
EVR or Eve VR it's a uh dog fighting
style space combat game inspired by by Eve made by CCP which is the guys that
make Eve but it's done with oculus rift and that with razor Hydra a that would
be so cool I got so excited when I saw that trailer if you haven't seen it yet
and you're interested in VR definitely check that out but back on to the topic
that's in here is Oculus Rift erotic Adventure one thing that um lonus put in
here is how detri how detrimental is this to have it released before the
Oculus Rift even hits the market um in
my my opinion it could get some bad rep for Oculus Rift and it could get some
bad rep for itself um because of certain people that aren't going to want this
but if people don't think there is already erotic games like you're
delusional there's tons of them already they're out there people don't have to
play them and people won't have to play the one with oculus rift it's not a
requirement so in my opinion you
probably should have seen this coming it was going to happen uh if you're a
parent just monitor your kids game library or whatever just make sure they
don't play it if you don't want them to play it like I don't think it's the
biggest deal um this kind of stuff will happen with
everything everyone saw this coming like
the fact that it's releasing before Oculus Rift hits the market is
interesting but not that surprising because they're going to want this
available for everyone right away and it's probably not going to have to be
the highest quality thing in the world so that's really not that
surprising what are you do doing that's weird and not in
Focus focusing is often my
problem so so why did you grab the angel bird the angel bird this is hilarious
because we did an unboxing of this uh aluminum enclosure I mean the
craftsmanship of this thing is outstanding I think we can all agree on that I found out why it uses USB 3 Type
A connectors at the back did I tell you this yet because and this is funny
because because it so validates something I've been ranting about for so
long Angel bird Austrian
company actually tested every usb3
connector implementation to find out how many inser like in a practical Everyday
Use scenario how many inserts it was good for and they found that every other
connector failed around 350 350 yes whereas usba a was good for
3 3500 Plus
that is why they're using USB 3 on the
back like type A on the back of their drive because they actually validate it
and they actually care unlike that's Beast cell phone companies which I find
it unbelievable that they all standardized on micro USB mine is almost
kind of broken I've told you about that right it's ridiculous the worst
connector in the world y the little contact on the inside of mine is super
flimsy maybe not the worst connector in the world but it's not good but it's terrible expecting it to last based on
that angel bird only was able to validate it for around 365 and that was
the USB 3 one which is wider I mean given you have to charge a
phone every day it will not last for 3 years I have problems with mine I have
to sometimes I have to like angle my phone interestingly so that it will
actually like press up against it so it'll work properly and like pushing it
in there sometimes I'm really careful so I actually get the thing in like so the
angel bird guys were telling the Noctua guys about our great unboxing and
they're like yeah he covered our booth too blah blah blah blah blah so the angel bird guys is like yeah Jacob from
nocta says hi and I'm like do you guys all like live in the same town or
something they I'm sure they all talk to each other anyway I got a kick out of
that that's cool that's Prett so uh uh
let's talk oh I just talking about the Oculus Rift thing if you want to add
comments no I just think that that's extremely detrimental to sort of the
image yeah that VR is going to have at the very beginning oh it is I mean but
at the same time what I said is everyone should have seen this coming on the other hand it might push it to
mainstream like right quick
fast that's also possible po POV
Adventure uh yeah but like okay seriously everyone should have seen this
coming they get to every medium you know what though in terms of PC games there
hasn't been that much they exist though okay but there's some like I If I recall
correctly there were some experienced game devs with pretty impressive resumes
working on this was it I haven't looked into it yeah no I did okay but anyway so
okay I wanted to move on to the AMD upcoming uh
CPUs oh yeah with the gigahertz race on
again AMD releasing the first 5 GHz CPU
I talked about it a little bit last week so I don't know have have you heard anything about this no okay three things
number one is these are very cherry-picked they are going to be
extremely Limited in Supply number two is they are not intended to be available
in the retail channel so the 9590 and the 9570 will be system Builder only SKS
much like the um oh crap what was it I
think it was AMD's first dual GPU card that had the ridiculous like handle on
it yeah or like maybe it was like the ear like was it like a 2900 XT
overclocked or or an x850 XT like
Platinum Edition something like like AMD's done this before back then they
were ATI but whatever um so anyway they
they've done stuff like this before and so these are going to be system builder
only SKS and last but not least check
this out 220 watt TDP I yeah I did know that that
is the most ludicrous thing so insane that I have ever seen so this was
submitted on the Forum by metrop P who
uh has linked here with his own little blur although we prefer a little bit of
a longer write up than that guys uh if you don't mind and I just zoomed in and
now I'm breaking everything so anyway softpedia andd won't sell the 5 GHz and
4.7 GHz CPUs two consumers Two Cherry
Picked yeah two Cherry Picked I suspect there just aren't enough of them and not
only that but they'll Ship Without cooling solutions and they will be expecting uh aftermarket coolers on
these things because of the extremely high 220 watt TDP and the funny thing is
um most of the people that have sent me messages about this seem to be under the
impression thatd is concerned about the chips not being cooled enough I call
ball on that because Intel already does it with their six core processors all
LGA 2011 processors ship with no heat sink these are high TDP chips they are
expecting people to put an appropriate cooler on it with that said it's a
different socket and you'd expect any cooler on lga2011 to be appropriate for
an LGA 2011 chip but there are quad cores on 2011 there are lowprofile
coolers that I kind of look at and I go seriously oh jeez you know that one we
have just like really maybe if the fan
goes speaking of nocta who I love so dearly they have a low profile cooler
coming it looks so sexy speaking of noct we killed their website double stack did
we really yeah
oops sorry sorry sorry Jacob um I think
the problem is actually to do with the vrm on motherboards because we've seen this
before with AMD when they started releasing some of their High TDP Black
Edition chips um even not to 200 plus
wattt TDP chip so remember that is going to be pulling a ton of power these are
basically overclocked CPUs out of the box Cherry Picked and overclocked um
people were killing boards because they were putting them on consumer grade
boards remember AMD doesn't have a socket differentiation strategy I
believe AMD is concerned not only about consumers putting them on boards that
are going to fry but also motherboard
manufacturers validating these chips on boards that can't handle them in the
long term Intel saw a ton of this back in the presc days I saw motherboards
that had been running for maybe a year and a half where the entire back of the
board along the vrm was brownish black
yeah and they weren't even dead yet they were still running but Lord only knows
what kind of voltages they were delivering to the CPU by that point how
damaged they were so this wouldn't be the first time that a CPU manufacturer
has gone okay whoa hold on this chip needs a lot of power maybe we better be
careful what kind of motherboards it's being put in and I know that some of the
boards that it's being validated with are things like Crosshair 5 where ASUS
on their Rog boards overb builds the vrm to the point where it's just kind of
stupid yeah but that's what they need but that's what they do yeah and that's
what this chip needs so um so there you go that's my that's my take on that
whole thing that's interesting that makes sense uh TDP thermal design power
so TDP is used a little H it's used a
little bit interchangeably with power and thermal output so that is how much
heat it generates and the the thing is that there does tend to be a correlation
between the P the power consumption of the Chip And The Heat that it wastes
because efficiency is efficiency across an architecture and so the amount of
heat that you're going to generate as waste is going to have something to do with how much power consumption that
it's actually using versus how much of it gets expelled as heat and part of the
confusion also comes from the fact that watts are used for both heat and Power
but TDP strictly speaking refers to the
actual thermal output of a chip or graphics card or whatever else it just
happens that like it's funny because you look at the TDP of something like um a
GTX 690 versus a Radeon 7990 there's a
75 watt difference it happens that underload power consumption is a 75 watt
difference so you see where the confusion comes
from so yeah so 220 wat TDP means these
things bust out a ton of heat which also affects the vrm solution because even if
you have a beefy vrm if it doesn't have adequate Cooling and there's this 220
watt heating element and that's before people overclock them and TDP goes on a
curve like this as you start to overclock it um there's a lot of heat
there that can burn out vrms as well uh how bad are Corsair SP 1220s compared to
n2s I mean they're not bad they have a bit more of a ticking noise particularly
when they're undervolted um they don't perform as well um
they look really they look way better that's that's I think that's where the
main competition is people don't like the look of nocu but you see a lot of SP
that's why I'm using GED wings and AP1 121s cuz I can't accept the nocas in my
in my personal build which has a blue and black color scheme the interchangeable rings on SP 1220s are
awesome that was such that was such an innovation really good move it was like
the weirdest smallest thing I didn't think it mattered at first and then I
started seeing it in different colored builds and I was just like they hit the
nail on the head with that one they really really did yeah hey lonus why don't you ever talk about GTX funny cuz
I just talked about it uh I don't have one NVIDIA never sent me one because I
was literally in a delivery room when
the conference call that I had to be on in order to get one was going on not
delivery room as in like male yeah like like my baby was being born so uh so
they so I mean they only have review samples when they have review samples
and it was one of those things where they were just like
dude sorry man and I was like okay okay
still can't make it but okay other than that we have every NVIDIA GPU that
they've done over the last uh however long so uh tell us more about the Omni
experience it was very cool but we've talked about it a fair bit we actually
have an interview with uh with Yan coming up on the line of tech tips
Channel soon is the ASUS Zonar something
still relevant probably um I don't know I can never remember what a DX or an XE
or seem to move way too fast they don't move too fast get a Zonar you'll be
happy you'll be good for at least quite a while yes I prefer single GPU cards
what's up with the 590 in my rig I had a water block I had a 590 and they look so
good with that water block and they look so good with that water block like I use
bad components people ask me what's in
my personal rig and I'm almost afraid to tell them sometimes because I use stuff
that just makes no sense yes but then look at the same time look at super
super high-end system Builders like like people making stuff for million dollar
PC and stuff if you look at what's in in the computer it's not always that good
but the stuff I'm using is like balling but like makes no sense I have an
extreme Edition yeah like I I don't even
have it overclocked that hard I could literally get a
3930k overclock it and get better performance if I just spent a little bit
of time T tuning it um I have two sticks
of RAM in an LGA 2011 board right now
because I just haven't gotten around to moving the RAM that's in that rig over
there to my system I have a 590 which
makes not an ounce of sense because the power consumption of it especially
compared to 600 series and 7,000 series is terrible at idol the amount of heat
it kicks out is just devastating um I have looks good some
ludicrous raid card with eight ssds in raid zero which I do not recommend
running the amount of times I've had panic moments because my computer blue
screens and the RAID controller has a small freak out and loses my array and I
have to swap the cables and the alarms off and the I mean I'm I'm running in a
Cari laser which is like a 5-year-old Mouse I was like I was talking to one of
the guys that used to be at meic and he was like really there's way better mice
out there and I'm like I know but I just I love it and I can't change I just
can't change I have it dialed into exactly the settings I like what can I
do changing mice is difficult it really is I'm trying to change to the death out
2013 right now even just form factor because okay I have a G500 yeah I know
that there's problems with the lasers yeah that is a very well-known thing so
don't listen to us basically but if I put my hand on any other Mouse it's like
Oh that's oh it doesn't feel like a G500 yeah like I look at like my uh my case
makes no sense like tj07 that I've
probably spent $7 to $800 on and then I
haven't even spent the money in ways that are like good like instead of
buying like a Murder mod front panel for it I got a bunch of antech 900 front
grills and like powder coated them so that I could put another Radiator in the
front with like velcro let's see what else about my
build makes my pump is like 5 and 1/2 years old and you have newer ones with
the same and I have newer ones with the same model but I was just like oh I don't know this one's like Works it'll
probably be fine should be fine don't worry about it hey
girl yeah so I hate telling people about my rig I'm running a BenQ 24in monitor
that probably weighs as much as a CR T cuz it's so old it's like some slow VA
panel because my my 30-in monitor broke and I don't have money to replace it so
yeah bike over monitor I should totally do a Kickstarter buy Linus a new
monitor and like what do you get for doing it lamest Kickstarter ever you get
the self-satisfaction that's horrible
I'm not going to do it okay um there's people tweeting about us crashing noa's
website sorry Noca sorry um
what do you think of track ball mice
no we probably shouldn't get subjective no subjective um in very very specific
use cases I think they can be very cool a lime fire X has to go how long is the
stream going to be I'm trying to say awake it's so early in the morning thank
you for trying I have no idea what time is it I don't know when we started I
don't know when we started I don't know what time it is we were really late why
don't we burn through some topics here so that we can so we can at least end it
when they're tired of listening to us okay um and anek did a did a pretty cool
article uh best CPU best gaming CPUs for
the money 2013 guys check this out it was submitted on the Forum by excuse me
Samuel um there were a couple things in here that I thought were a little bit
suspect um so this is by Ian cutris I believe he's a doctor so I'm going to
say Dr cutris um I actually ran into him at computex cool yeah we ran into each
other in the ASRock Booth cool um I didn't think he was going to recognize
me because I'd only met him once before that I also ran into Anand and we filmed
an interview that all of my editors passive aggressively didn't edit and
didn't upload because apparently I was fanboying way too hard holy cow we
should we should release it at least un like unedited and we just release it I'm
not ashamed to Fanboy over on N it was awesome 40 minutes long whatever 50
minutes long they don't have to watch the whole thing and then the walk away
was amazing too I filmed part of it I don't think I'm going to release this
but I filmed part of it with the other two guys in the crew just like us all
talking about you and an N walking away whatever it was fantastic and then I
drew like fake little love circles I can think of I can think of worse people to
have a bromance with so anyway um so
their conclusions A8 5600k plus the core parking updates for
Windows is their CPU for single GPU
gaming this was can you still even get those core parking updates I think so
yeah okay and I think Windows 8 comes with them or something like it's not
that bad um so interesting choice makes
a lot of sense it does they're overclockable y it's not like you need I
mean we saw going results going from Sandy bridge to Ivy bridge to Haswell in
games what two three FPS that much you
won't notice it that much I love my 2600k Pepsi challenge
tmrc whatever all the things are Pepsi challenge aside like you'd never know
the difference sitting down in front of them which is to me the most important thing
my 2600k is overclocked quite well yep and I yeah I couldn't bring myself this
CPU costs next to nothing yep the boards are cheap super cheap fm2 boards cost
nothing 890 bucks for like a pretty good board for a pretty good board and it'll
be Crossfire ready or whatever else so I thought that was a fantastic uh I
thought that was a fantastic choice um the next one I thought was a little bit
weird 2500k can you even still get these 2500k
yeah that's actually not a bad choice though
I don't know how you could get one yeah exactly like what kind of what kind of recommendation is that though let me see
real quick and fx8350 to me look really
smacks of sort of trying to appease AMD here because
fx8350 because games are not really going to leverage those extra cores in a
meaningful way right now um is not going to perform that much better than the
5600k that they already recommended especially after you're overclocking
that 5600k I think it was almost reaching for like a better CPU to use
for dual GPU gaming just so that they could recommend something because you
still feel kind of silly putting a Titan in something like a 5600k system because
it just feels inappropriate but um I
mean really 2500k yeah it's not even listed on on NC it's not listed on
NewEgg like where are you going to buy these I mean 3500 for 3570k I could kind
of see and they do talk about that and the text blurb under it but uh yeah I
think it's a good choice and then the next one was
3770k and I I kind of had the same I kind of had the same feeling here where
the this was the triple GPU gaming CPU so they're saying um or yeah they're
saying 4770k I'm not really convinced wait Tri
okay and then for Quad GPU they say 3770k with the plx board because they
haven't had much experience with Z87 boards with plx chipset but I mean still
I'm not convinced that a hyperthreaded CP
makes any kind of an impact because you have more gpus um no we've had great great results
with non hyper threaded CPUs with multiple card we don't test multiple
graphics cards that much which is possibly part of that because neither of
us like them yeah well it's not so much
a like or dislike thing it's just uh it's it's so few people that are
actually running these three-way and fourway setups and with uh frame rating
and all that other stuff going around but on It's relatively not a problem
true um I mean and I've run SLI setups
many times for all of my preaching about single G that's another thing for all
the preaching I do about no TOA fans and single GPU setups I'm running yed wings
and Silverstone air penetrators which are both good fans too by the way and
I'm running a 590 and okay and I ran 7900 GT SLI and I ran 7950 GT SLI and I
ran GTX 260 SLI and I ran 8800 GTS 320
gig SLI and I ran no I think that was it I I my
buddy Harrison wanted a super super super high performance rig and ended up
getting him to get two 660 Ti power editions the original ones when you
could overclock them like crazy that was a great card and like that was a crazy
card and he esed them and they're crazy powerful sometimes it makes a ton of
sense yeah so anyway saying like usually we don't check out the Anon Tech article
thank you to uh to s ual for submitting
that article on the Forum in the news section guys don't forget if you submit
news items in the Forum there is a chance we will feature you on the live
stream which uh we don't it doesn't entitle you to any money but that
basically means you're like the rest of the lonus Media Group
employees that YouTube money
right uh NVIDIA licenses out Kepler
architecture and future GPU architectures uh submitted by good this
is also an article on Anon and I'm not going to wax on about how Anon is
awesome and I read it every day um if
that's a preview that's a preview of the interview with the net not only do I
read it every day but I've been reading it every day for years like I brought up
stuff in the interview he'd be like yeah something something something I'd be
like yeah kind of like in that article where you said this and he's just like
how do you possibly you really have been reading me for a long time like yeah
I've read everything you've ever written um we should relase that
interview yeah I probably should I was like yeah and you went through that phase where you were only interested in
like home theater crap for a while and he was like yeah I
did I was like yeah it was hard to keep reading your articles at that time
because home theater is so far behind in Canada because none of the providers
okay I'm not going to talk about a non Tech anymore um so moving on so this to
me is bizarre so they'll be licensing out their architecture in much the same
way that ARM does for its ARM architecture processors
what the devil does this mean go I I
haven't read enough into it it's just nuts like so are is there potential that
we could see an Intel you know I don't know
trollbridge CPU at some point with an
NVIDIA GeForce GPU in it troll bridge yes and this is where I think CU I'm
kind of trolling because I don't think Intel's going to do it but but it could
could we see someone else could as well and you look at like does this work
against what NVIDIA is trying to do with Tegra it feels like it is are they
shifting strategy here are they giving up on Tegra where they designed their
own complete chip but on the other hand they acquired all those Wireless patents
so so are they are they trying to own
are they trying to spread into the ecosystem are they hedging their bets
are they going we're still committed to Tegra we still believe according to the
code names of teger CPUs that they are basically our superhero product
but are they trying to make it so that there's a possibility that a Samsung or
Apple on the down low would put GeForce
inside because we can all agree that Tegra
Graphics have a lot of potential and they can basically compete with
themselves at this point yes which is interesting because if they're competing
with themselves they're still getting sales on both sides yes which is really
really good like really really good it
it opens the doors to a ton of stuff it could burst money into them which is
also another thing yeah it could be a really really good Financial depending
how the licensing depending on licing works all that kind of stuff who actually buys it we don't know right now
like it could be amazing it could not be amazing I mean it's interesting that is
just like Bizarro land to me it's weird because they've always been so closed
doors I mean if they're talking about you know having licensing partners for
the GPU Tech I mean at that point you're
going to have to start sharing GPU technology before release they have
always been like nope like I have a
feeling that you could get killed at NVIDIA for like releasing I mean okay if
Jensen's watching I know you wouldn't kill anybody I I met him once he's super
cool um but
yeah still though that's they've always been
hardcore this is our technology you don't mess with it and uh I don't know
this is just uh this is this is so bizarre I mean would they would they
would they license it to AMD if they wanted to that's one thing I was just
thinking but I don't think so because at that point like you just said they'd
have to release stuff before the release and I don't think AMD would actually
want it I think they take a lot of pride in what they've done with Radeon over
the last little while and they are take like if you look at the architectures
they're really different yes they're very very different gravis cards but they're really different and you look at
I mean AMD in some ways yeah is is as
ahead of the curve as they've ever been in terms of the tech do they have a
competitor for Titan no but that was never their strategy no
not in the not since they did 3870 has that been their strategy the
highend is meant to be addressed by two dual by a dual GPU card um so so yeah so
there so there's that you look at how far ahead they are on in terms of open C
Al performance which is going to be much very relevant moving forward that's
going to be a big deal and it feels like I mean particularly with Adobe moving to
opencl it feels like that battle is going to be
interesting open SE versus Cuda uh you look at how competitive six uh 7,000
series still is even though it launched before this is something a lot of people
forget 7,000 series is old people ask me
all the time lonus why don't you ever do any coverage of AMD gpus well because
they haven't freaking released anything in a long time because 7,000 series was
before 600 series and NVIDIA is refreshing to 700 series already and
they didn't get us to 7990 and and they didn't get but we have one now the
unboxing is shot and it'll be up soon so
there you go so that means I get to and we got a 7790 finally uh I don't know if
there's any point in US benchmarking it because we don't have a frame rating
setup right I don't know so we'll we'll we'll we'll discuss internally and see
what we think makes sense but
um yeah I mean they're they're really ahead they're really advanced in in a
way that and I think it would be a pride thing I don't think AMD would want to
take you know yeah help from the Green
Team then again I'm you know I'm not going to speak for amds be interesting
Technologies at the same time like they're trying to get um oh man why
can't I remember the name of it right now dress effects yeah the hair thing
yep they might be able to pull in help by getting some of the Technologies from
physic okay so I don't again pride thing
which is honestly as a company I wouldn't want to be like hey we want to
like figure out yeah we're going to start you know pushing physx yeah that
doesn't seem like the right move and I don't think they'll do it I just can't imagine AMD putting anything green on
their box yeah no they even moved away
from it on the AMD CPU side like nope
nope our performance stuff is all red yeah done
yeah um how are the angel bird internal ssds any good they're sand Force ssds so
they couldn't be bad so far just based
on the sort of fit and finish of this I would say their attention to detail and
quality is outstanding and it's been doing great we've actually used it a lot
using it all day today um please do a guide on the tea balancer yeah I know
it's for like seven people that need one
um other than mice causing pregnancy oh shoot you guys can't see Twitter right
now I'm sorry uh let's lus let's just say your
personal rig is full of things that you take risks on dayto day yes I do
what what do you think about Omni and the Elder Scrolls guy working together
to make okay what do you think about Omni and Elder Scrolls would you play
Elder Scrolls with an omni uh if I want to become a marathon runner true that
okay fast travel I guess yeah but I okay I don't want to
get into this I'll talk for too long Ivy Bridge uses a very cheap thermal
solution under the IHS 2500k is great good for you but you can't buy one
that's what we were talking about he he I think he I I think I saw that tweet
too I have won at 5 years so he has one
already he's not trying to buy one oh and you could technically buy them
that's not really relevant from for a 2013 buyer guide though definitely not
okay but do you think the Dell u31 is
worth $1,400 depends what you're doing are you a professional user yeah are you
a professional well yeah are you a professional user who can't quite afford
an
isoo super expensive I don't I've never even looked into it I know I've know
more than one person that has that monitor because it's amazingly good yeah
I know some graphic designers I bought a 2405 fpw back in the day I picked one up
used for 750 or 800 bucks like that was
the most expensive monitor I've ever bought even my 30 in I only spent around
650 bucks on it um Dell monitors are outstanding that 2405 fpw that's an 05
model is still running and it's starting to fade it's
been fading for about a year but it's still on my wife's desk so I believe in
Dell monitors I'll just put really really really good it's my personal
experience best CPU for 3D rendering and rendering in general I have a six core
1090t I mean 3930k is what I would
go um I think I accidentally scrolled up or
something most embarrassing moment at computex was it all the booth babes
trying to take pictures with you yeah probably that's weird never happened to
me so I guess uh I guess we didn't even
release the video of the best one oh really oh that no it got lost oh did it
yeah it glitched out I pulled the USB
drive out of the computer without safely removing and the file oh that one was
the best one oh Boll was like choked so
choked he was like I wanted that to I know I'm sorry
it was my bad it was my bad well I don't safely remove flash lives either so I I
can't be that mad you could have EAS you could have just as easily done it but Boll was mad yeah cuz he does and he
does do we don't have time we're just like ah
let's go go go the files are of lesser importance than getting this USB drive
out as quickly as we can I CL yeah that's broken that's like definitely
broken oh okay well we tried to go to this link but uh here you go guys China
now has the world's fastest supercomputer by a long fraking shot
Titan has been surpassed so NVIDIA is going to have to redo all of their
marketing around the world's fastest supercomputer and the Titan GPU I mean
it was the world's fastest supercomputer and that whole thing is just a Leap Frog
race oh yeah insanely fast too and Titan's still fast don't worry and I
mean China's approach was to throw what was it like something like a million
plus CPUs at the problem trying they built their own interconnect to
communicate from like node to node and
the thing is fraking beast and it's basically part of China's initiative to
be to to to have their own it resources
that are just freaking boss because when China decides to do something and like
do it hardcore like look at the Beijing Olympics everything about it was like
awesome like I honestly living in Vancouver I just felt embarrassed by
things like our Opening Ceremonies compared to the Beijing one just like
everything was embarrassing compared to just China is hardcore uh so blah blah
blah they you so they're not using their own CPUs although there
are so yeah this is so super so Titan is
just over half of the power of the new uh whatever it's called Ti and not power
draw yeah no uh Power in terms of like
ra yeah yeah um Gun Show time so also
known as Milky Way 2 consists of 16,000 nodes inside each node two Intel xon
ivybridge processors and three Intel xon five processors run the show adding up
to a total of 3.12 million Computing
cores okay then the machine is is scheduled to be fully operational by the
end of this year something something something so most of the features of the
system were developed in China they're using only Intel for the main compute
part however the interconnect operating system frontend processors and software
are mainly Chinese very interesting and
the Chinese are looking into making their own processors right yeah like
like yep large large scale in fact there
are something where are they something something something something something
ah can't find it I think there are some Chinese processors in there that they're
not even factoring into the power of it
from it's like a top 500 supercomputer perspective and it's more specialized
for like weather weather predictions or something I pretty sure I read that
anyway this could be a slightly I think I clicked on another link within the
article and I I kind of kept reading about it cuz I was interested in it but
uh There You Go China dominant in terms of world's fastest but I think the US
still has something ludicrous like 200 of the top 500 super computers and China
has like 70 or something like that so it's still it's still the US uh the US
show in terms of supercomputing and let's do build of the week and then I
think we're pretty much going to do another Twitter Blitz and wrap this up
folks build of the week is a you're up uh oh okay I did a PowerPoint for it oh
where is it this works it's in the Google Drive all right Google Drive oh
you're showing the Google Das whatever um uh what's it called uh today's try
today's date with dashes today date with dashes are you what are you hi what
didn't mean type in today 6-21
sl23 really oh really yeah and it's
going to look like and your naming thing for the file earlier I was like yeah
three numbers that's perfect all right so here we go wow did we see this I saw
that we saw this yeah I saw this at compex yeah and it's in it's in a video
that we did of the ECS Booth is this on her form this is she posted it on her
her to while she was there because there was the five mod men competition right
she was the only one actively standing by her computer and actively talking
about her computer so I was like you should post this on her Forum you'll get tons of traffic she ended up winning a
Community Choice Award cool which is awesome and I think largely driven by
our fans because it in our video and that's really really cool the power
suppies is in the bottom it's all she's a gold and silver smith oh is it silver
it's no it's aluminum oh okay um but like she has the tools to do that kind
of stuff what's oh that's the other build of the week okay so uh where do
they go to get the links for build of the week the links for this will be in
I'll tweet them out right now they will be in a form topic on the top of build
logs um made by windspeed 36 so you'll be able to find these later on um he
will add them there and I'll tweet these out but they're both totally awesome
this one is user fat you can find her on the Forum you can check the build doogs
thread she's still I think page one or two and that thing is very very very
cool all right next up this is user rjf
049 with okay then the most creative name I've ever seen and it's on a test
bench but it's really interesting I really really suggest checking out the
thread because while this is the most um
like pulled out video uh picture I could see that really showed the whole build
you should really really see the closer up pictures because he's got really nice look at that individually sleeved
cabling it's like perfect super nice sleeving um and he sleeved his tubes oh
it really good looks it looks really really good the test bench is way too
big I see that it's way too big and it's
a lot bigger that's an hptx uh it's one of the uh ah what am I not cool it um um
deusch no no they do like pots or whatever the fit thing oh phobia phobia
it's a phobia test bench and it's absolutely massive and I mean how many
slots do this 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 like
is that 11 what kind of board does this okay anyway whatever you want but it's a
really really cool build I've said really really a ton you do say about a
ton I do I fall back on if I say really
really or very very it buys me time so I can figure out what I'm going to say
next look how dark we are now yeah cuz it's dimming outside yeah um anyway guys
check out the builds of the week they're awesome as usual we will be back oh no I
said we would do a Twitter Blitz okay guys Twitter Blitz time slick thoughts
on Elder schools online coming to consoles no we're not talking about
that um if you want to talk about that we'll talk about that later in some
medium either message me on the forarm or start a thread or something I'll show up my PC and everything in it is four5
years old is it worth upgrading over time save for a new build do that thing
save for a new build it is pretty much always uh a better choice will you
autograph my side panel if I send it to you that's not really a service we
offer um honestly I think you'll be Amed
at how expensive it is to I shipped a motherboard to Australia today and it
was $90 and that was going through
through the shipping rates that are available at NC I called in a favor
which is not how much it would have cost if we went normally yeah it was like 250
bucks FedEx quoted us yeah uh should I get an h8i or an h100i get an h100i
Haswell e x99 LGA 20113 any news not
really I mean Ivy bridy isn't out yet
so what's up with the PS4 saying it will have ddr5 RAM it has gddr5 RAM and it
shares that Graphics memory which the main differences between Graphics memory
and system memory are that it's higher latency and typically higher clock
speeds um it's going to share that as system memory this is something we've
never seen before and everyone is very interested to see how that goes yeah are
closed loop water cools generally loud no but the h60 if you want to overclock
could potentially be get an h100i or an h110 if you want something really quiet
to do a few uh should I push pull a heat sink with two different fans
no compression lost lossy lossless
versus uncompressed files in terms of video audio photos uh uncompressed as
far as I know is I'm not really sure
what the question is yeah okay moving on um are we I think so we haven't finished
yet we're close okay okay okay is there
going to be an yes H h100i if you can fit an h100i do
an h100i anything new on NVIDIA Shadow play not that I've heard I'm excited
yeah they're still saying it's coming in the summer sometime yeah super
excited uh presumably Seagate or Western
Digital yeah yeah they probably have a really good deal
actually is the Haswell on the same line as in's extreme Edition they are using
different processor architectures um and they are they have
a different number of cores and they're on different plat forms um performance
however is pretty similar particularly for gaming not for things like 3D
rendering or more professional work pros and cons of upgrading to a 120 HZ
monitor specifically I'm a gamer go do you want like H are you going for 3D
like um this kind of a question I would throw this on the Forum because you can
get a lot more in depth than what we're going to get it to now we need to know
more of what you're doing like yes you're a gamer but we need to know like
what games what you want to do with it all that kind of stuff so I would recommend posting on the for Will and
can do a build video for around a 3,000 we aren't really planning on that right
now but I do have a call with Intel this coming week where we're going to discuss
what we're doing for our next Intel sponsored build
guide you can buy new ones apparently on
Amazon cool okay it's 230 bucks though
yeah that's not even a good deal no okay
I'm making an 8 SSD rate array should I set up a RAM dis probably not I mean you
can use um fancy cash
but I think it's still in beta or something like it's one of those things
where yeah sure go for it I do it but I still wouldn't recommend it all that
stuff is a little bit sketch right now but it's fun so whatever you want to do
well with the new consoles how much of the8 core CPU label will translate into
performance and how much is Just marketing speak I think we'll see when it comes
out it depends on how optimized the games are for multicore yeah because
these are not powerful cores nope but people are going to be they optimize
like crazy for console y I remember when um jumping back to this when they were
making mowind they had to move the data
that was going to be read more closer in the disc so it can be R
faster excuse me ah sorry will you do a
review of the h630 Yeah we actually have one sitting downstairs we just haven't
gotten around to it yet good morning from Israel hello hello good
morning do you recommend 2 670s or
single 770 780 go 780 okay agreed what
would you recommend for a sad with decent storage and good speed well I'd recommend you watch us on your computer
and not on your phone for one thing if you want to type correctly uh just uh
SSD with good storage in good speed I don't know anything from Samsung Intel
crucial um quite frankly the new Neutron GTX from Corsair is getting Ray reviews
these days there's a lot of really solid stuff right now and it's not moving
super quickly right now seates new stuff is outstanding I mean you look at how
much it's slowed down San Force SATA 3 is
still very relevant very competitive um
so yeah DDR3 ddr5 in the PS4 we already
talked about this gaming monitor 3x 23 in or 21 by9 27 in both are IPS 5
millisecond response time and both Solutions are around 600 bucks go so
wait is he doing 127 in or 3 1 21 by9
super widescreen 27 in or 32 3-in
monitors in surround remember we saw one today the
uh the Alienware one yeah I don't like
that personally you'd I would really
recommend trying to go to a store where you can see it in person I find it is
very flat whereas to be an equal distance away from the monitor you
almost bit curvature you almost need some curvature there we've seen some kind of stuff like that from I don't
remember who but they made this giant curve monitor which was realistically
three monitors right blah blah blah blah blah my friend needs to format a sparrow
s drive and Windows just won't let him format it any tools to format it um yeah
Fisk within Windows you can actually force it so uh lus oh already got that
one already got that one a few times I think can you recommend the Silverstone
ps07 or another less than greater than seven or another greater than $70 us
case make an ultimate silence build with KN to1 T balancer you know what I'm not
that familiar with the ps07 unfortunately so I'm I'm
sorry uh what does okay we already talked about that already talked about
that ASUS bamboo really he asked me what
laptop I had oh
okay suggesting okay well I think that's pretty much it thank you everyone and
good night well what we're going to do
well good night for now until after party which um I don't know how long
we'll be able to go tonight it's already 7:30 and we kind of have stuff to go do
wow yeah okay maybe we'll just we showed up really late and we went for two hours
I think we went for two hours I think so oh okay okay well thank you everyone and
good night for real this time good night
thanks for watching
