1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:08,480
it's finally happening ladies and gentlemen the ultimate pc build off

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,360
between Linus tech tips and bit wit

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:14,799
but rather than exhaust ourselves and you

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:19,199
know get all sweaty building computers we've decided to fight this as more of a

5
00:00:17,039 --> 00:00:24,320
proxy war so instead of Linus versus kyle it's

6
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:27,840
going to be my wife Yvonne versus wifey sauce wifey sauce that's a good

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:34,000
nickname so mine has a nickname ladies uh have fun

8
00:00:31,279 --> 00:00:40,840
we're gonna go sit on the couch and uh critique your builds and you have snacks

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,840
i do i'm gonna have some snacks

10
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:54,000
so you guys are each going to build your pc starting on the same mark and then

11
00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:58,399
we're going to come in and inspect each other's wives buildings

12
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:02,640
okay okay okay so so it's not a speed contest no it's a thoroughness contest a

13
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:07,040
little bit of both actually so you'll get 10 points if you finish first and

14
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:10,560
then you get deducted one point the slower person gets deducted one point

15
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:16,159
for every 10 minutes extra they take then we have a five-point score for your

16
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:19,600
cable management so one is going to be you basically just threw it all in their

17
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:24,080
total rat's nest and bang the side panels on you're nasty with a 5 being

18
00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:27,680
what we would consider to be better than what we would have done for these builds

19
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:32,799
however even if you get 15 points if there are

20
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:36,079
defects or damn it what was the word deficiencies

21
00:01:34,479 --> 00:01:40,960
something's not plugged in io there's a memory stick that's undone

22
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:44,079
yep you get one point docked for every single deficiency

23
00:01:42,479 --> 00:01:46,320
so then if we're going to be doing cable management where are zip ties and all

24
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:51,200
that uh i believe you said you have a bunch

25
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:56,320
of uh LTT cable ties most of them are in use but i do have a bag of zip ties

26
00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:02,159
yeah okay you could even you can even fight over

27
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,960
who gets to use that more often okay um and did we get

28
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:09,679
like a sort of briefing do we get to watch one of your videos you can watch

29
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:13,440
as many of my videos as you want okay and i can watch as many of yours sure i

30
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:18,480
mean they won't be helpful are we allowed to read the instruction man it's an hour long yeah of course okay just

31
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:22,800
checking i don't know we're not allowed to help each other you can help each

32
00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:25,920
other if you want but like that's no one wants to see it close what if

33
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:29,200
like one of those finishes first they can go over and help the other person

34
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:34,640
where's the fight she already knows she's gonna win she's trash talking right now she's coming

35
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:37,040
over to help me out that is true women are

36
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,760
yeah it's like mean girls okay well see you guys yeah good luck

37
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:50,480
okay okay i'm going to start with the motherboard

38
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:54,800
i'm afraid to say things out loud i know me too but you're

39
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:58,879
see i don't you're being local this is i think this might be like a back plate of

40
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:02,959
some kind i'm actually really looking forward to this i am too this is great

41
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:06,239
like we're making content i feel like we're just sitting back and relaxing i

42
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,840
know right we should just do this more often let them do all the work oh shoot

43
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:13,280
they didn't give us thermal paste uh does it not come on the cooler

44
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:17,760
already wow just uh making a mess of things right away i

45
00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:20,879
mean you gotta you know desk space is a valuable asset when you're building a

46
00:03:18,959 --> 00:03:25,599
pci how is she not using the motherboard box as a cheap easy anti-static safe

47
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:30,239
work station well because she's got a beautiful gamer's nexus mod mat

48
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:33,840
i don't think the CPU works for this mother this motherboard she get wait and

49
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,840
she doesn't have it lined she doesn't have it lined up right she has it she hasn't rotated wait she keeps like

50
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:42,879
second guessing she keeps putting it in the same way i can't tell can you tell if it's facing them it's not facing the

51
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:47,120
right way you know what i take it back this is not much fun this is really this

52
00:03:44,799 --> 00:03:52,480
is really sad so far they're not going to sleep with us for

53
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,480
like a week after they watch this video

54
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:04,239
wait a minute was your CPU exactly the same can i see the top of it

55
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:10,400
uh AMD ryzen 2400 mine's not AMD ryzen no they're not the

56
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:15,280
same they're not the same mine's at 2700

57
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:20,320
so mine's not like when i put it when i line up the arrows

58
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:24,560
unless it goes this way no because i lined up the arrows

59
00:04:22,639 --> 00:04:30,560
and then yeah because it's not like seating at all i feel like this is the

60
00:04:26,479 --> 00:04:30,560
blind bleeding the blind right now but

61
00:04:31,759 --> 00:04:38,080
there oh my gosh okay i was like

62
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:43,600
okay thank you you are welcome this is so embarrassing oh my

63
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:47,199
god wifey you're better than this

64
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:51,520
i mean at least she's installing RAM now instead of like trying to put an aio

65
00:04:49,199 --> 00:04:54,880
cooler on outside of the case right well see now if wifey sauce is a good

66
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:58,320
sport she'll help Yvonne when she gets in a pinch yeah right she owes her one i

67
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:02,080
think she owes her one at least right now yeah so you said you haven't built a

68
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:06,639
computer in 10 years i feel like that's a lie because you remember

69
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:11,120
you just no it has it actually has been a really long time and i've never built

70
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:13,440
one completely myself before okay

71
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:17,919
but i think i'm just i'm using like logic i saw

72
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:21,120
like for the CPU i saw a little gold triangle on one side and then i saw a

73
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,240
little triangle on the other thing so i assumed that they went together i think

74
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:28,639
i really need to get my eyes checked because i was seeing like two markings

75
00:05:26,639 --> 00:05:31,520
that looked both looked like arrows and i was like

76
00:05:29,919 --> 00:05:36,400
i don't know i think it's the nerves or something it must be

77
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:42,800
this is not right what is going on does it go this way that can't be right

78
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:42,800
let's sit this way

79
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:49,759
okay this really is the true test

80
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:52,960
of manufacturer documentation no kidding right

81
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:56,720
because i think honestly our wives are probably a pretty good representation of

82
00:05:55,039 --> 00:06:01,039
people who like are like aware of computers right but

83
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:05,039
have never actually like really done it yeah what's really baffling me

84
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,800
is that they haven't just pulled out one of our videos to watch along with do

85
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:12,560
they really have this little faith in us i'm trying to be careful not to touch

86
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:17,280
the bottom and oh yours had thermal paste and mine doesn't

87
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:21,199
so i gotta figure that out too after oh thank you

88
00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:24,160
why are they collaborating so much i don't know like i wouldn't be helping

89
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:29,199
you at all look at them there's like sharing tools and stuff like what are

90
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,560
you guys baking a cake together

91
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:34,560
this is supposed to be cut throat there's no prize for finishing together

92
00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:39,759
i need to put these on but i don't know which

93
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:42,400
way these go on so it looks like the RAM is over

94
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:46,880
i'm really bad at physics so i need to like line things up

95
00:06:44,479 --> 00:06:50,479
exactly how it says this is not physics milady

96
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,639
ironically she got a far better grade in our first year physics course than i did

97
00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:02,400
i mean you were probably just busy dropping things that was your physics exam

98
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:07,599
drop the you know things drop the course drop my whole degree

99
00:07:05,039 --> 00:07:11,599
i'm shaking right now are you shaking i am thinking i love doing this and on

100
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:17,680
top of that i have thermal compound all over my hand

101
00:07:13,599 --> 00:07:21,199
no no no no this is wrong this is wrong

102
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:23,440
it is not making contact at all okay

103
00:07:21,199 --> 00:07:28,479
okay this is all the wrong way

104
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,479
why isn't it working

105
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:34,400
she flipped it she flipped the other the breath did it oh they did it too yeah

106
00:07:33,039 --> 00:07:38,160
they flipped it well that's why heather had to flip it around because i didn't

107
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:44,199
go i didn't notice she did that too yep she's got it now but yeah but she can't

108
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,199
figure out how to put on the socket

109
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:52,319
did she just take it off put it back on exactly the same way

110
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:58,400
there it is there it is i'm gonna get my memory in

111
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:01,199
okay so this part

112
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:07,039
you gotta line up the little things and open it up

113
00:08:03,599 --> 00:08:08,000
oh boy hand it should be

114
00:08:07,039 --> 00:08:13,120
okay i heard it click that's good okay

115
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:18,479
yeah that's some good RAM installation hon good job

116
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:21,840
you rammed it in there you rammed it where's my other fan okay

117
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:31,840
oh no i did this the perfect way is she putting the fans

118
00:08:29,199 --> 00:08:31,840
on the radio

119
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:38,640
oh no wait what is she doing hold on if

120
00:08:36,479 --> 00:08:42,880
she if she's putting them on the right way it could still work

121
00:08:41,519 --> 00:08:48,399
in fact i would oh no that's not right at all she's

122
00:08:45,839 --> 00:08:52,320
doing it the same as he does i know oh no

123
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,320
honey that was your chance to catch up yeah i always mess up like what

124
00:08:54,240 --> 00:09:01,360
direction like the cable should go when i'm mounting fans on

125
00:08:58,959 --> 00:09:05,279
radiators i can hear them like yelling in there and i wonder like what they're

126
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:09,440
getting so riled up about which one of us is making a horrible mistake right

127
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:13,519
now that they're making fun of us for both of you

128
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,720
really the reflection is on us though it really is you know that right yeah

129
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:23,360
they're just an extension of our own skill and training abilities do you have snacks i

130
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,760
do i'm kind of hungry yeah let me get something like kind of lunch time right

131
00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:30,800
oh nice you've got like a platter i really hate working this hard but you

132
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:34,720
know oh boy

133
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:39,440
okay am i supposed to mount the radiator before i put in my memory

134
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:44,640
because it is not fitting you know what to be safe i'm just going to take out my

135
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:48,320
memory they both took the RAM out

136
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,320
i didn't see heather take the rabbit

137
00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:55,920
but if they left the RAM in then they probably wouldn't have been able to install the radiator oh which means that

138
00:09:54,720 --> 00:10:00,800
they're going to be like i said they have to be they have to install it at the front

139
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:05,200
that's the only option they're both let's see who figures it out first

140
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:08,880
why does my memory not fit see i thought it was just actually i'm clearly i don't

141
00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:13,440
think it's gonna fit i think i think i think they're too tall is

142
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,839
yours too tall too yeah i had the same issue

143
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:20,240
okay but that can't be right i mean because i

144
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:23,120
had to take mine out in order to mount the radiator that's what i just did and

145
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:27,760
then i now i'm wondering if we should have left

146
00:10:26,399 --> 00:10:32,800
it in there the memory well it i didn't want to ruin

147
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:37,360
because i took it off for the same reason i was having trouble fitting the

148
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:41,360
radiator in there but there is no way in hell yeah it's going to go back there

149
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:47,800
it's going to go back in there oh my god i'm am i screwed right now

150
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,800
are we

151
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:56,160
you know what i think we should do is remove like the fan

152
00:10:53,920 --> 00:11:02,000
i'm not sure if that would help well just to just just to be sure that you

153
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:05,839
know but then do i tell you if it works well if you've moved on i'll know that

154
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:10,079
you did you did you did help me with this the CPU so that's that's true

155
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:15,440
that's true i'll tell you um okay so GPU uh-oh

156
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:21,920
uh-oh i don't do that don't do that premature

157
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:24,240
okay please go in come on just just go in there

158
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:32,240
and don't break anything oh she's got the GPU installed

159
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:36,160
for better or for worse i mean it's fine as long as she got all of the front

160
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,360
panel i o and everything hooked up perfectly underneath it

161
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:45,360
it might be blocking the SATA ports though because they do have a two and a half inch SSD to deal with graphics card

162
00:11:42,959 --> 00:11:48,000
last hun watch videos

163
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:53,279
just any video um okay so do you guys want any hints we both

164
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:59,680
cannot figure out how to make this fit we think it's too tall

165
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,680
well sorry i can't give you any hints

166
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:07,279
but you guys are 100 certain that this will fit with the build this computer

167
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:13,040
can be built dude i think it's too tall

168
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:18,000
this is the life yep you know

169
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:22,800
happy happy wife happy life right absolutely they look happy

170
00:12:19,839 --> 00:12:26,320
oh my gosh i'm so flustered right now where did my

171
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,660
screwdriver go okay am i oh my gosh why isn't this coming out

172
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:31,680
because i need this to come out

173
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:39,760
okay i think that's the only way that's gonna be plugged in

174
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:41,519
i can go like that i think that will

175
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,639
work hey what is this

176
00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:49,519
whoa oh wait is this oh wait is Yvonne asking for help what is

177
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:54,240
this okay so she's helping her she's help my

178
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:58,000
wife is helping your wife are they mad at you

179
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:01,440
i think it might be one of those but i honestly i thought so too but they don't

180
00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:07,600
they don't plug in i think we have other connectors for that

181
00:13:06,079 --> 00:13:12,800
um oh that's all i'm gonna say

182
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:16,720
okay other connectors is that what these are

183
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:24,160
that looks like a looks like an RGB lead please don't try to plug that into that

184
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:25,760
stop just stop just stop please no stop

185
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:29,360
i had this brilliant idea that i was going to try to mount the radiator

186
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:35,680
somewhere else but i don't think it fits over there

187
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,839
does a radiator really need two fans

188
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:42,399
she's not technically wrong it's an aesthetic thing it's only

189
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:44,959
cooling like a ryzen CPU it's a 2700 it

190
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:49,399
can get warm yeah with a stock cooler on it

191
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:56,720
did she just like jam it in there i don't know wait is there RAM on her tail

192
00:13:54,160 --> 00:14:01,920
oh i can't see oh she got it got it in there how got it in it can be done is it

193
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:05,440
and it looks fairly installed right it looks fairly intact even didn't line up

194
00:14:04,079 --> 00:14:09,839
with the right there is enough clearance to me but maybe there just just just is

195
00:14:08,399 --> 00:14:16,399
mind you now she's gonna have a hell of a time getting a PCIe power cable

196
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,800
she's gonna have to pull you're right

197
00:14:19,519 --> 00:14:25,199
let's just start plugging things in i guess

198
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:30,880
oh my god did i just do just i mean

199
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:35,760
oh there it is

200
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:39,199
you've got to be kidding me at least she recognizes it at least she

201
00:14:37,519 --> 00:14:43,600
at least she realized it that's good that's good because otherwise she was good fry your

202
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:47,199
board yeah yeah third time's a charm

203
00:14:46,079 --> 00:14:53,040
you know what i think i'm just gonna move on from this

204
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:57,199
it's one point for a deduction for not getting something right so i'm just not

205
00:14:55,040 --> 00:15:00,800
gonna put that second fan in and i'm going to hope that i make it up for with

206
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:05,600
speed there it is honey there it is sorry she

207
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:09,680
blows oh isn't that easier

208
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:16,560
remember when we were like four hours yeah we don't need four hours

209
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:19,920
to build a computer that's insulting that they would think

210
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:24,959
we would need four hours to build a computer yeah well

211
00:15:24,959 --> 00:15:30,000
it seemed like 90 of both of their struggles just stemmed straight from the

212
00:15:28,399 --> 00:15:34,959
aio they haven't really struggled with a whole lot else that's taken too much

213
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:37,839
time actually everything else looks installed correctly

214
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:42,959
yeah you figured out the fan thing too nope

215
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,519
i'm sorry the the aio they wear it plugged in did you figure

216
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:50,800
that out nope and i am also bleeding now so i'm

217
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:54,480
bleeding too looking i don't know it was all over me

218
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,880
i have no idea how that happened did they say they were both bleeding i think

219
00:15:56,079 --> 00:16:00,000
so they must be on the same cycle

220
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:09,360
making my own tourniquet are you bleeding law do you need a

221
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:10,880
band-aid um

222
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:13,360
i'm so stressed out building this thing that i didn't even feel it

223
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:18,480
yeah i just don't want to get blood everywhere right

224
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:22,800
the phone is still a flashlight oh no

225
00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:22,800
dear heaven no no no

226
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:28,959
why do i feel like this goes together but i can't

227
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:35,079
i don't know if this was it the whole time

228
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,079
it was

229
00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:44,800
if they finish at around the same time so far i think they both only have one

230
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:48,880
obvious deficiency Yvonne doesn't have both fans on her rad

231
00:16:47,199 --> 00:16:53,519
right and heather didn't plug in the usb on your CPU block right

232
00:16:51,120 --> 00:17:00,560
you know i just realized i uh installed my aio

233
00:16:56,399 --> 00:17:03,519
kind of upside down i noticed that

234
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:07,600
you have time now to fix it if you wish because i am not and i'll get a point

235
00:17:05,439 --> 00:17:11,439
off for that i'm not touching it unbelievable

236
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:15,120
on but why would she not Yvonne's still building her two thirds

237
00:17:13,360 --> 00:17:19,760
sorry a third of the score is aesthetics why would you not think that an upside

238
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:22,319
down logo is gonna cost you i know

239
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:25,520
after doing this it makes me realize that i need to build more

240
00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:31,720
computers it makes me realize that

241
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,720
i don't need to do any more computers

242
00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:40,320
there are lights on everything if Yvonne manages to put in her eight

243
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:43,919
pin she could still win this kyle i can't

244
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:50,400
turn it too much because it's plugged in right now and it's really ugly from the back but

245
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:52,640
oh shoot this panel's not on properly

246
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:56,000
but you don't open your backside panel so yeah okay that's that's what i expect

247
00:17:54,880 --> 00:18:01,840
normal yep that's what happens when you don't when you don't plug things in

248
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:05,039
i will confirm for you guys if this system has posted

249
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:10,240
you know what we're going to call that a no post okay okay so what am i missing

250
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,640
so here this is a moment of truth for wifey sauce you're watching or what yep

251
00:18:13,039 --> 00:18:19,760
i think it did does that mean it posted not yet ah

252
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:22,970
i didn't see her do anything wrong i'll go double check double check just

253
00:18:21,360 --> 00:18:24,640
change the input just a minute

254
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:31,200
no post that's too long

255
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:35,039
now that they've now that they've both failed their first post should we give

256
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:39,360
them a hint i think so could could you tell what was wrong with her build

257
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,880
i didn't look closely i was just looking i was legitimately just looking to see

258
00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:47,520
if there a postcode readout okay kyle and i have talked through it and since

259
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:52,640
you both reached sort of the finished stage of your builds and did not manage

260
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:55,840
to post we've come up with two hints

261
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,919
that are designed to help both of you

262
00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:01,360
we're not going to say which hint is for who

263
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:06,799
but the hints are watch a freaking video

264
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:13,200
make sure you didn't miss a step yep wow and hint number two is

265
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:15,360
make sure everything is seated correctly

266
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:18,880
okay well the the watch of freaking video is definitely for me

267
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:27,039
so see ya i'm watching the no dollar wasted pc build guide now i found an LTT one

268
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:33,520
hello welcome to dennis tech tips this is happening so you just do this very

269
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,440
very gently what the hell okay that is

270
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:39,679
okay this right here is not where i meant to put this um i

271
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:45,200
removed yeah i don't know i don't know how that happened it's not even in a slot

272
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,200
sorry ladies figure it out time is kind of over yeah

273
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:55,600
it's up to us now to try posting your systems okay okay and we've decided that

274
00:19:53,919 --> 00:20:00,320
each thing we have to do to your system is a one point deduction okay

275
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:04,880
okay well honey you were so like just so close for so very long i

276
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,000
thought the comment you had for me was that i should watch a video so it was

277
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:13,440
you should have watched a video three hours ago though oh i missed plugging something in the

278
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:18,000
top so graciously kyle has agreed that plugging in your

279
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:22,480
eps connector doesn't count as three steps removing your radiator i should

280
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:25,679
have plugging in your eps connector i regret everything in your radiator that

281
00:20:23,919 --> 00:20:32,480
can i regret everything that was the part that i was just on for the video i

282
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:34,400
i was gonna get there uh yeah maybe

283
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:42,320
what can i do actually no i'm not going to do that holy crap no just kidding just kidding

284
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:46,240
you scared me yeah that scared me too it's funny because i know that you asked

285
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:50,640
you used to build your build outside the case just to make it post first maybe

286
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:56,400
i even thought about doing that that would have been a great idea yeah it would have been great if you watched a

287
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:57,919
video well no but i knew that i just i i

288
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:01,760
thought oh man she's starting with the case i'll just i'll just go for it oh

289
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:05,440
that and you guys didn't give us the monitor so i thought we were just supposed to build oh you're supposed to

290
00:21:04,159 --> 00:21:09,840
watch a video that's what the challenge was

291
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:14,000
using only your husband's videos we're going off of memory obviously yeah

292
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:18,559
yep ain't working yeah something good that did

293
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:23,679
oh boy hold on hold on there it is we have a post all right oh my other

294
00:21:20,799 --> 00:21:27,520
friend's spinning oh oh it sounds like it might be promising

295
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:32,000
okay fans and now is the time to get a little quieter

296
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:34,240
yep anytime now

297
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:37,760
any time now that would be good

298
00:21:35,679 --> 00:21:41,440
now would be even better ten seconds ago maybe wait just give us some time now

299
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:45,679
would be worse but still okay i think it's gone i tried a different

300
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:51,440
CPU one step this motherboard has worked

301
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:53,360
before if neither you nor i can find any

302
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:57,039
clear deficiency in the build do we chalk it up to dead hardware which we

303
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:00,960
cannot penalize for i mean i think that that's fair i think that's our only

304
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,960
choice yeah

305
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:06,960
i do too i thought we were both going to post and

306
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:11,039
yeah we didn't well she did eventually i know yeah that's true you did eventually

307
00:22:08,159 --> 00:22:14,640
i only fixed one thing and kyle and i we have no way of knowing definitively

308
00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:17,919
whether you actually killed the board or whether you got a bad one in the first

309
00:22:15,919 --> 00:22:21,840
place so we've decided to ignore it right and pretend that it posted because

310
00:22:19,919 --> 00:22:25,360
neither of us can find a reason that's physically obvious for it to not post so

311
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:29,200
if neither of them get any sort of advantage in the time category it really

312
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:34,320
boils down to cable management or aesthetics and any deductions yeah so

313
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:37,679
you both get 10 out of 10 for time right because you finished effectively at the

314
00:22:36,559 --> 00:22:41,919
same time there was a really solid effort made to

315
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:45,440
hide your cables behind the motherboard tray which in this case is quite

316
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:49,600
challenging because it doesn't have a lot of space right there

317
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:54,159
you did a good job of managing your tubing here having like a nice arc to

318
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:58,640
somewhere sensible as opposed to having them twisted or anything like that all

319
00:22:56,559 --> 00:23:03,760
your RGB is illuminated so all those components are functioning

320
00:23:01,120 --> 00:23:09,600
enough to at least look good and you did what i would say is at least a b-plus

321
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:12,000
job of getting rid of the power supply

322
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:16,400
nest down here and running all of your motherboard panel connectors um down

323
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:20,720
along the edges here where your aesthetics kind of struggle

324
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:25,840
are in the rat's nest that you've got under your drive cages over here

325
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:30,799
the fan connection wires that are hanging right across your RGB

326
00:23:27,919 --> 00:23:37,120
motherboard here i agree and while you've done an okay job of the

327
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:39,679
cable management for your aio um i've

328
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:43,679
got to take a point right off for this being upside down

329
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:47,120
oh i know i know

330
00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:51,360
if one is a dog's breakfast you didn't do anything and five is better than i

331
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:54,799
would have done um i i'm gonna give you a three

332
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:59,360
five three point five okay so taking a look

333
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:04,640
at Yvonne's build here it actually looks fairly tidy at the front uh kind of an

334
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:08,480
interesting method here for wiring your water cooling tubes you have it sort of

335
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:12,799
zip tied to the motherboard tray which isn't super conventional but i i guess

336
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:18,320
it kind of looks all right um but apart from that you have this

337
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:21,279
cable that's coming right in front of your fan which

338
00:24:19,919 --> 00:24:25,120
had you just sort of flipped it it could have been completely hidden behind it or

339
00:24:23,039 --> 00:24:30,240
something like that there's also probably not a whole lot wrong with the

340
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:32,320
fact that your rear fan is mounted as an

341
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,919
intake apart from you know zero dust filtration but we'll get to that later i

342
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:41,600
think more or less it's just kind of an eyesore that we're seeing the back of the fan as opposed to the nice looking

343
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:46,960
blades uh and also it's upside down so so that's not quite plumb um but uh

344
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:50,559
apart from that it does look like you've taken care of your bottom cable

345
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:54,640
management pretty well here i don't really see a lot of rats nests

346
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:58,880
additionally there's i don't know if this counts as

347
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:03,200
aesthetics but having your one of your radiator fans relocated to the back i

348
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:06,320
mean it looks a little bit odd to have one fan on a rad

349
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:14,240
imo i don't know if this counts as aesthetics either but uh the missing

350
00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:15,840
panel the side panel that goes oh oh

351
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:19,919
interesting we'll get to that later it looks like

352
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:25,039
your RGB is pretty much all lit up for the most part which looks nice uh the

353
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:28,559
cable management around your aio also looks pretty good you did a pretty

354
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:31,840
good job of routing it sort of behind the water cooling tubes and around the

355
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:38,159
memory and i think that's pretty much it so as

356
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:42,080
far as scoring goes i think i would also have to give this

357
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:45,039
a 3.5 out of five

358
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:48,480
really why do you think you deserve more or less i'm curious um actually more

359
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:51,600
because i don't have things just like hanging in front of my

360
00:25:50,159 --> 00:25:55,039
my thing like i don't have just wires coming down

361
00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:58,480
across my build and yeah it's unconventional that i

362
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:02,720
tucked it away but it's also like super clean okay i'll give you a four yes okay well

363
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:08,799
heather i think you should get an opportunity to argue with your judge do you think you deserve more than a 3.5 my

364
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:12,799
only argument is i i i guess when you said cable management might i i thought

365
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:16,080
i thought cable management was front and back i didn't know it was only the front

366
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,520
you know what i guess we never specified i think i think we didn't specify make

367
00:26:18,159 --> 00:26:25,840
it a four out of five i saw it already it's better than ebon's all right functionally speaking we have

368
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:30,080
a couple things to note here uh the first thing that i pointed out i think

369
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:34,640
was this expansion slot isn't even mounted so it's just kind of hanging out

370
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:39,840
there um so i would have to deduct at least one point for that

371
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,840
okay my turn

372
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:47,600
your GPU is on in the bottom slot or the second slot which

373
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:51,279
generally isn't recommended uh you might be lucky to the point where there's the

374
00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:55,760
same number of of lanes going there but uh it's not 100 it's most likely not 100

375
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,760
of the performance that you would get out of the top slot even if it's just by

376
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:04,000
a really slight margin so i'm gonna have to dock a point for that uh missing

377
00:27:01,679 --> 00:27:07,679
motherboard screws that's a deduction i have to point out the obvious the

378
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:10,159
8-pin eps connector for the CPU wasn't plugged in Linus had to come in and do

379
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:15,279
that himself that's fairly important so

380
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:18,880
point didn't you take out my front panel connectors

381
00:27:16,559 --> 00:27:21,600
yes yeah so she would get docked a point for the front panel connectors because

382
00:27:20,159 --> 00:27:25,840
that's something i had to fix oh you fixed it yes going back to this fan at

383
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:30,080
the rear it being mounted as an intake with no dust filtration whatsoever would

384
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:34,240
be even more detrimental to potential dust build up in the case over

385
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:39,200
time and i think that sort of ties in with the fact that you're not really

386
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:43,200
getting all the cooling performance that you would have theoretically paid for

387
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:47,360
out of this aio by moving one of those fans

388
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:50,159
obviously it wouldn't fit anyway because of the clearance issue involving the

389
00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:54,720
memory but there was still the possibility that the rad could have been mounted to the

390
00:27:53,279 --> 00:27:59,919
front of the case to avoid all that entirely see i even thought of that would this be

391
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:03,520
one point or two you can't prove that the cooling potential is not good

392
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:08,159
because unlike this aio yeah that one at least has two fans

393
00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:13,440
spinning that one was spinning actually and yet here we are okay

394
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:17,679
all right we'll do one point Linus is a baby

395
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:20,880
so did you break your SATA cable here sorry what

396
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:24,960
um so i'm just gonna pop this SATA cable out but it appears that you've actually

397
00:28:22,399 --> 00:28:28,399
cracked your SATA data cable during installation

398
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,120
that is there are certain things and i just unplugged that and your other fan

399
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:37,840
started spinning which is really interesting i think that's all

400
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:41,120
i think so too i can't see anything else so

401
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:44,559
in summary i have a total initial score of 14 out of 15 for time and aesthetics

402
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:49,440
same and i have deductions for a missing pci

403
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:53,760
slot cover missing motherboard screws incorrect front panel connection and a

404
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:58,080
broken SATA cable that once removed actually caused a fan to start spinning

405
00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:03,520
so that gives heather a total of 10 out of 5 or 66.6

406
00:29:00,559 --> 00:29:07,679
percent 10 out of 15. 10 out of 15 yes Yvonne got a 10 out of 10 for time a 4

407
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:12,799
out of 5 for aesthetics and i doctor once for not having expansion slot

408
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,240
mounted down one more for a GPU in the

409
00:29:12,799 --> 00:29:19,039
incorrect slot an additional point docked for not having her eps eight pin connector

410
00:29:17,679 --> 00:29:24,000
plugged in which is why she wasn't able to post and one more for having a rear fan

411
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:29,120
mounted as an intake that didn't have any dust filtration which brings her

412
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,559
total score to 14 minus four which is 10

413
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,520
out of well that was another waste of time if we were gonna end up with a tie

414
00:29:32,159 --> 00:29:38,399
i wouldn't have even bothered this was pointless way to go hon you guys suck

415
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:41,200
wow you know what we're definitely going on a date without

416
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,640
