1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:06,520
and we're live good evening everybody it

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:11,920
might not actually be evening where you are but I think you kind of get my point

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:16,279
um oh there's already oh look at this look at this we've already got a viewer

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:22,960
who's uh who's all about sort of our audio issues and uh how I should fire

5
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:26,080
slick and hire him so that or her could

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:28,560
be a girl I heard there's a girl on the

7
00:00:26,080 --> 00:00:32,719
internet what's the name a oh yeah I have no idea yeah AO no idea there's a

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:37,440
lot of girls on that internet tons of them or at least

9
00:00:35,079 --> 00:00:42,719
pictures that creepers took of girls on the internet it's a lot of that so good

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:47,239
night every oh good night no wait we're not done that's more of a we're done thing it's night here though it's

11
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:51,320
actually very late at night we had a very long day today we had once again

12
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:56,399
you know what for those of you who complain that it's unprofessional of us

13
00:00:53,199 --> 00:00:58,199
to eat on the live stream um you know

14
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:02,359
what we're very sorry that we have to do that and trust us it's like we're not

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:10,920
that cool with what time like what time did we leave today this morning like

16
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:13,119
leave 2:45 nine yeah okay so so we got

17
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:16,960
started around 9: today and then we actually start that's that's pretty

18
00:01:14,439 --> 00:01:21,960
typical on Fridays we shoot ncx Tech tip so then we make it back here for our

19
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:26,920
live stream at 9:00 our time and then we go for another hour and a half so you

20
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:29,439
guys do the math and then there's uh

21
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:32,159
work afterwards because I have to then watch the live

22
00:01:32,759 --> 00:01:39,439
stream I I have to then watch the live stream I spilled food in my lap of

23
00:01:37,399 --> 00:01:46,560
course you guys are wondering so so do I prefer this system the answer is no no

24
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,680
because it results in like a 13 14 hour

25
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:53,640
day yeah pretty much and then we get to eat at the like 12 hour Point that's the

26
00:01:50,759 --> 00:01:59,360
first time we get to eat yep busy busy days so the good news is we have a busy

27
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:06,439
busy live stream for you one of the biggest the news this week was that um

28
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,119
NVIDIA has started well not they've

29
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:14,080
started they are not talking about it at all but the internets are starting to

30
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:15,400
talk about a replacement for the GTX 680

31
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:20,920
have you seen this have you heard about this so the rumor the word on the street

32
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:25,640
is it's going to be based on failed Tesla cores so Tesla's used for what's

33
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:29,519
that a supercomputer that deployed like a bajillion Teslas not that long ago I

34
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:34,280
won't know the name of it yeah I can't remember the name of it but Tesla is

35
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:38,959
used for supercomputing it's used for um things like cloud gaming so if you're

36
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,640
not familiar with cloud gaming that's um you know what I'll let you talk about

37
00:02:40,239 --> 00:02:44,720
cloud gaming while I try to take like three bites here I'm not a fan of cloud

38
00:02:43,239 --> 00:02:48,080
gaming but the idea is that it's all rendered and everything's pre-processed

39
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:53,440
in the cloud and then streamed down to your computer okay so tell me this about

40
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:56,239
cloud gaming based on oh right you

41
00:02:53,440 --> 00:03:00,440
weren't there for Project Shield okay of course you have to troll me again no I

42
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:05,159
had forgotten because I was I was pretty down on cloud gaming

43
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:10,959
uh to start with like I was like oh yeah this isn't going to work bye-bye but

44
00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:13,680
based on what I saw from Project

45
00:03:10,959 --> 00:03:16,640
Shield it could work is that not local streaming though yes it's local

46
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:21,840
streaming but it's local streaming over Wireless which can't be that much better

47
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:24,599
than remote streaming over copper right

48
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:28,319
or better yet fiber yeah so when fiber hits cloud gaming is going to make your

49
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:34,120
gaming computer totally irrelevant forever it will never matter ever

50
00:03:31,319 --> 00:03:38,200
again nope I'll play Legacy games You'll Play Legacy games yep you know what's

51
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:45,799
funny is I actually have Parts in my attic that are I have a yeah my my my

52
00:03:43,319 --> 00:03:50,120
wife doesn't know about cuz she told me when we moved here she told me to throw

53
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,840
out all of the unnecessary Tech crap that I have and I was like oh yeah yeah

54
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:57,319
it's all gone it's all gone don't worry about it um it's hiding in the Attic

55
00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:05,560
yeah there's a there's a box hiding in the Attic of enough Legacy Parts I think

56
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:07,360
I have a P2 233 some Edo RAM or it might

57
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:16,400
be might have been SD RAM by that time might be SD RAM I've got an old old id

58
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:21,079
like ATA 33 hard drive um like an a64

59
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:23,560
sound card Isa Isa a64 sound card and my

60
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:31,440
intention at some point is to find like a balling case and then just like I've

61
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,759
got an at power supply to go with it

62
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,160
and then I'm going to try like Frankenstein it into this balling

63
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:42,240
awesome looking machine so I can have a dedicated box just to play TIE fighter

64
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:45,479
so I've got my old thrustmaster Top Gun

65
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,759
joystick I saw that too seral seral

66
00:04:45,479 --> 00:04:50,160
joystick epic there's one guy on the forums you got to check out his build

67
00:04:48,919 --> 00:04:53,479
blog he did I don't remember all your specs if you're watching I'm sorry um

68
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:59,960
but the thing that stood out the most was he got voodo SLI running I told you about this I think

69
00:04:57,639 --> 00:05:04,360
mhm yeah and that's just so awesome awesome so awesome wasn't he like even

70
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,280
running like old benchmarks on it he was running old benchmarks and trying to

71
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:11,639
prove his platform and like showing off him playing games and like really really

72
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:15,840
cool really cool build log he's talking about how he'd like buy stuff and people

73
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:20,919
would just send like like he said his two processors just came like taped

74
00:05:17,919 --> 00:05:23,039
together two processors yeah so it's

75
00:05:20,919 --> 00:05:28,360
like a dual CPU what like oh it must be like penium super super uber highend

76
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:32,479
yeah I think it might be pum I actually acquired back before I don't remember

77
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:39,680
what it is before dual cores were affordable um I had the I I I acquired

78
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:42,319
two Pentium 31 gigahertz and I think I

79
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:47,160
got something like a gig and a half of RAM or something for it uh when I

80
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:51,880
upgraded my my in-laws machine a number of years ago like this was this must

81
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,680
have been like six years ago because um

82
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:59,680
and you know what it actually kind of rocked running a modern OS like Windows

83
00:05:56,639 --> 00:06:00,880
XP with dual processors even though

84
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:06,360
though they were underpowered for something like an office machine is way

85
00:06:03,919 --> 00:06:11,880
better than a single core one of one of my most prized possessions within my

86
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:13,599
like the the the like room in your house

87
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:16,520
where you put all your Tech crap one of my most prized possessions in there

88
00:06:15,039 --> 00:06:23,240
which I have like wrapped up like crazy in an antistatic bag so that I hope it

89
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:26,080
won't die is a one gig dim of uh ddr1

90
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:30,560
seriously yeah that's freaking awesome those were expensive those were like

91
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:34,560
crazy I don't know where I got it from I didn't buy it like I probably got out of

92
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:39,160
some system that a friend was like oh you can just have this I'm buying a new one I know you do computer crap and they

93
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:45,680
probably just bought a new system from Best Buy and like gave me their old crappy one crappy quote unquote because

94
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:49,639
it had a 1 gig ddr1 dim in it but yeah I I harvested that and just hold on to it

95
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,759
with dear life and every single time that I need to make like an old school

96
00:06:50,919 --> 00:06:57,879
system for whatever reason I just throw it in to be like yeah now there's no RAM

97
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:02,240
problems instantly I can stack it with like

98
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:06,960
however many other sticks I want it's still usually more than half of the RAM

99
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,160
in the whole system it's just so epic

100
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:15,240
that's awesome I don't know if I have any I don't know if I have any old okay

101
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:20,199
probably my thrustmaster top gun so that joystick is is like legendary for

102
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:27,400
me other than that you know I wish I wish I still had

103
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:30,199
my monitor my CRT monitor so for those

104
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:37,280
of you who knew CRT monitors I had a P95 f+b from bonic which was aperture Grill

105
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:41,360
so it wasn't using that um whatever it was Shadow mask I think was the other

106
00:07:38,919 --> 00:07:44,680
competing technology so aperture Grill was one of those things where you know

107
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,319
there was a lot of debate on the forums should I get an aperture Grill monitor

108
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:52,360
should I not because the aperture Grill causes two faint lines at about the top

109
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:58,319
third of the screen and the bottom third of the screen that allow the picture to

110
00:07:55,599 --> 00:08:02,479
be much more square and much more clear for the flat screen

111
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:06,159
but actually caus those lines to be visible to you so people are like who I

112
00:08:04,919 --> 00:08:09,680
couldn't get used to it or people are like oh I didn't even see it after two

113
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:15,520
three years so I took the plunge I got myself an aperture girl monitor I loved

114
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:20,440
that monitor one of my siblings took a quarter to

115
00:08:17,919 --> 00:08:24,479
it never told me how it died the anti- glare Coating in the middle there was

116
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:29,599
nothing wrong with the monitor so I got a replacement from view Sonic it was

117
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:33,599
terrible it was like a refurbished this was when CRTs were not even really in

118
00:08:32,039 --> 00:08:39,159
production anymore they got me the replacement when I was just like this is

119
00:08:35,919 --> 00:08:42,080
unusable so I pwned it off for cheap and

120
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:48,760
uh and that was the end of my P95 f+b and that was when I made the switch very

121
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:56,839
begrudgingly to LCD and I moved to uh an

122
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:58,720
Acer 1916 W that 1440 by uh 900 was it I

123
00:08:56,839 --> 00:09:03,959
don't remember I I don't remember it was like uh it was like whatever the

124
00:09:01,399 --> 00:09:10,160
resolution was it was like super low res and I was just like oh it's WID screen

125
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:17,240
really small and I don't have a lot of desktop room like slow clap

126
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:19,480
myself so I blew like $ 6700 on a 2405

127
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:24,040
fpw and then that's the one that is still running on my wife's computer it's

128
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:27,079
starting to die though is it yeah I'm super sad I haven't noticed I haven't

129
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:33,440
spent like any time on it but I haven't noticed the edges are yellowing oh yeah

130
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:39,399
well it's cathod backlit so guys for those of you who don't know an LED

131
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,000
screen is not a thing okay I'm G let

132
00:09:39,399 --> 00:09:45,800
that sync in for a minute that's why it's LCD LED yeah but people don't no I

133
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:51,120
know that people are like oh I want an LED monitor an LED monitor would be like

134
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:56,120
a lightboard like one of those Billboards that that's an LED monitor

135
00:09:54,120 --> 00:10:01,519
trust me you don't want one of those or an OLED monitor would could technically

136
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,600
yeah yeah cuz that's an organic light so that would technically be an LED monitor

137
00:10:02,959 --> 00:10:10,480
and that would be balling but we can't buy those yet no or we can but money

138
00:10:08,079 --> 00:10:14,920
yeah we have to be like a sultan of like Malaysia or something and then we can

139
00:10:12,519 --> 00:10:19,440
mount our OLED monitors in all of our cars they can go clear right uh oh there

140
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,880
was one on display at CES that was transpar that was transparent put it as

141
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:27,320
your windshield yeah that would be illegal I'm sure in any country anywhere

142
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:30,560
why what do you mean why because you could overlay like your speed and

143
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:34,560
everything or you could overlay a television show what if you could like

144
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:38,320
software mod it so that it forces to not show things on certain parts of the

145
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:43,200
screen so of course someone yeah okay I was going to say if someone handed you a

146
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,279
car that had a software limited screen

147
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:51,160
in the windshield what's the first thing you would do I'm not going to go into

148
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:54,880
that topic but that would be really

149
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:57,160
cool yay I want a screen right so LED

150
00:10:54,880 --> 00:11:01,320
screens and LCD screens are not different things so an LCD is a liquid

151
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:08,720
crystal display it's a panel okay so it's thin it's thin it just goes at the

152
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:10,320
front and then uh ccfl or um fluorescent

153
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:16,040
those are the same thing okay so fluorescent lights go behind it and

154
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:18,880
shine through the LCD panel or you can

155
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:23,399
have an array of LED lights that shine through the LCD panel so that's the

156
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:28,240
difference so anyway it's an older fluorescent LCD monitor and what happens

157
00:11:26,279 --> 00:11:31,639
to them is you can actually replace the cathodes I don't know if you knew that y

158
00:11:29,959 --> 00:11:35,560
but you can replace the cathod but it's probably not worth it at this point

159
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:41,160
actually maybe it's probably really expensive 24 in VA panel though was a

160
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:46,399
very well-regarded monitor at the time do you think there might just be like stock hanging around I don't know I

161
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:49,360
don't know if I'd be able to get uh to get fluorescent tube looking into that

162
00:11:48,079 --> 00:11:54,760
would be a fun video actually if you find they're so cheap now you can get an

163
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:57,120
LC you can get an LED backl LCD for like

164
00:11:54,760 --> 00:12:00,399
nothing now and the advantage of LED is that they don't fade over time they

165
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:07,600
don't yellow over time and they last for a really long time which brings us

166
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:11,279
gracefully back to Tesla and NVIDIA's

167
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:14,360
upcoming replacement GeForce card um so

168
00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:16,880
Tesla is used for uh compute

169
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:22,720
applications for cloud gaming and they want to take failed Tesla course which

170
00:12:19,279 --> 00:12:25,360
doesn't mean failed so it's binning

171
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:31,600
process yes the binning process is the key here so you can have a Tesla spec

172
00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:33,800
that goes whatever gigahertz whatever

173
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:37,279
memory bus uh whatever okay so that's the only thing

174
00:12:35,839 --> 00:12:41,399
most people think about is what speed does it run at no there's way more than

175
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:44,920
that because for applications like compute where they're installing these

176
00:12:42,959 --> 00:12:50,000
in blades they're going to have very strict power and heat guidelines so

177
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:56,480
there could be a chip that runs at 2 GHz at stock voltage but if it's hot like a

178
00:12:53,079 --> 00:13:00,079
mofo it's totally unusable something can

179
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,079
be hot like a mofo

180
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:07,959
I'm hot like a mofa actually I'm really cold right now

181
00:13:06,079 --> 00:13:14,639
I could use a jacket but the food's like frozen I know you microwaved yours but I

182
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:17,839
bet it's cold now yes the potatoes are

183
00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:19,199
like solid but anyways um uh so the

184
00:13:17,839 --> 00:13:23,279
binning process why don't you get into the binning process while I it's not

185
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:28,199
that show them how of us well it's pretty cold it's not that cold it's not

186
00:13:25,519 --> 00:13:32,320
as cold as like two days ago it's 12° in here and you're in a T-shirt shirt nice

187
00:13:30,399 --> 00:13:35,440
which sort of is more of a reflection on your wisdom and planning than it is on

188
00:13:34,199 --> 00:13:39,399
the temperature I don't think it's that cold though I don't know I think it's

189
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:44,240
pretty cold we have the lights pointed at us though that's probably helping a little bit although they're fluorescent

190
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:48,079
lights so that's a thing they don't really heat out that much if we had the

191
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:52,880
ones from the ntx studio here oh that would H ridiculous so the other light

192
00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:58,759
main light technology is incandescent which means basically

193
00:13:55,680 --> 00:14:02,120
fire what it means um so that's where

194
00:13:58,759 --> 00:14:04,839
something is just glowing so white hot

195
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:10,959
and so bright that it throws light all over everything around it those are hot

196
00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:13,759
compared to ccfls which are hot compared

197
00:14:10,959 --> 00:14:17,480
to L LEDs are you just checking to make sure the audio is actually good because

198
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:22,199
I never checked uh yes that's a good idea I have the twitch chat open here

199
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:27,560
too okay well maybe open that I was also going to bring up the list of companies

200
00:14:23,959 --> 00:14:29,079
and what games and uh groups were

201
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:34,360
purchased good thinking I'll do some twiter questions except I got to finish this NVIDIA topic that I've been really

202
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:38,160
struggling to actually manage to finish sounds

203
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:42,480
good so the new card coming is going to be a replacement for the 690 it's going

204
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:45,480
to be failed Tesla cores which doesn't mean they're failed it could mean that

205
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:49,240
they run at a slightly higher power envelope which is fine when you can

206
00:14:47,199 --> 00:14:54,720
throw a big old dual slot cooler on it in like a nice well ventilated gaming

207
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:57,440
chassis so no big deal and we're

208
00:14:54,720 --> 00:15:01,199
expecting this to be an enormous well I'm expecting it to be based B on sort

209
00:14:59,519 --> 00:15:04,639
of the leaked specs that have been seen and based on what we know actually not

210
00:15:02,839 --> 00:15:10,240
even leaked specs based on what we know about Tesla specs this thing should be a

211
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:17,720
huge generational boost in performance so this was this core was

212
00:15:13,639 --> 00:15:20,279
ready back when NVIDIA was launching GTX

213
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:23,959
680 but for whatever reason whether it was due to the competitive landscape

214
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:28,560
whether it was due to the yields on this gigantic die it's very expensive to

215
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:33,920
manufacture for a number of reasons so whether it was due to the yields whether

216
00:15:29,839 --> 00:15:35,079
it was due to just it being very

217
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:40,040
difficult there being very few production lines that could actually manufacture this monstrosity they held

218
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:44,160
it back from the GeForce line and have only been using it for Tesla I think it

219
00:15:41,959 --> 00:15:47,120
only recently made it to cuadro as well is that

220
00:15:44,959 --> 00:15:50,079
correct I think that was a while back that it made it to Quadro not that long

221
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:55,399
ago though correct me if I'm wrong though guys um so I'm really excited

222
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:59,639
because I'm not a huge fan of dual GPU Solutions I don't like the inconsistency

223
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:03,399
of their performance so the way that in some games they'll be like this when you

224
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:06,319
compare to sort of a better single card you know if you go dual GPU okay

225
00:16:05,079 --> 00:16:13,759
sometimes it's here sometimes it's here sometimes it's here because you're paying more for it um and there's just

226
00:16:10,959 --> 00:16:18,399
more General like if if there's a game that runs perfectly on all

227
00:16:15,639 --> 00:16:21,720
configurations except one you know all single cards run I pretty much guarantee

228
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,639
you it's all the single card configs that work and some dual card

229
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:28,959
configuration that doesn't work because it's a lot more complicated to code the

230
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:34,079
drivers for it so really excited about another truly high-end GPU that's using

231
00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:40,240
a single GPU uh high-end graphics card using a single GPU and what that'll mean

232
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:41,959
for well for for everyone um are you

233
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:47,839
ready to join me for another of our main discussion topics or should I do some Twitter chat um I almost found it okay

234
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:53,079
let's do some Twitter Q&A then guys I'm going to go ahead and switch over to

235
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:55,160
Twitter and 121 new

236
00:16:53,079 --> 00:16:59,880
interactions uh my speakers make some kind of strange high pitch pop every few

237
00:16:56,959 --> 00:17:02,480
minutes any idea uh could be your phone if your phone is sitting near your

238
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:07,079
speakers and they're unshielded then there's a chance that you'll get some interference from them from your phone

239
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:11,880
whenever it's receiving or sending cellular data uh yes we will be covering

240
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:16,679
the THQ bankruptcy soon that's actually what Slick's compiling his uh his

241
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:23,400
numbers for what's that a pen you need a pen I have 15 pens you can

242
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:29,120
have so funny that one uh I might have one in my pocket you

243
00:17:26,799 --> 00:17:35,480
can reach in and get it if you want no I got nothing that's a

244
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:36,799
shame so close and yet so far do we

245
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:42,280
really not have a single you know all the technology in the world and uh we

246
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:49,799
don't have a single pen it's cool you can go do problem

247
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:53,280
you're good okay I'm doing Twitter Q&A

248
00:17:49,799 --> 00:17:56,880
then okay more Twitter Q&A would you

249
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:59,600
recommend the EVGA sr2 or SRX for

250
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:04,919
hardcore editing SL mid highish end gaming on the side actually yes that is

251
00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:12,080
one of the only usage scenarios where I would genuinely recommend an SRX because

252
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:19,799
it is not useful for gaming mark my words slower for gaming than a than an

253
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:21,799
LG 1155 platform with a 3570k on it

254
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:26,080
especially if you're overclocking so there's that but if you can take

255
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:30,320
advantage of all of those cores and all those threads I mean I'm super stoked to

256
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:34,320
see what an SRX with Ivy Bridge e in it I want to see I've actually been able to

257
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,200
work with an SRX in real life really there's the issue for me is there's not

258
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:43,320
many cases or I probably would have bought an sr2 can the 900 do it uh yes

259
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:46,520
900d will do it but the 900 will not that's what I meant remember the 900d

260
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:50,039
and the 900 are completely different things much the same way that the 300

261
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:54,480
are and the 300 are different things although like where did Corsair get this

262
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:59,799
naming strategy from they both have 600s although the corsairs has a T and anex

263
00:18:56,919 --> 00:19:05,400
does not what other numbers of overlap 600 do I think they both have a 200 is

264
00:19:02,919 --> 00:19:10,720
there yeah low an yeah I think there's a carbide carbide 200 of some sort 200 r

265
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:15,679
or something like that yeah there you go so uh so Corsair when they re when they

266
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:20,840
iterate the 800d and the 900d a couple more times they'll have an 1100 as

267
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:24,200
well not really not sure where I was going with this cloud gaming will never

268
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:29,760
fully take over there's a reason we're called Enthusiast building computers is a hobby for many good for you but you're

269
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:33,799
wrong uh cloud gaming will take over and there will be nothing left of Enthusiast

270
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:37,600
there will be old games or like Indie Games it's like it's like saying um it's

271
00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:41,760
like saying Super Nintendo is never going to die because there are

272
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:46,080
enthusiasts and there will always it'll always be there and you're right in fact

273
00:19:44,360 --> 00:19:49,640
I think the most recent Super Nintendo game was made only a couple years ago or

274
00:19:48,159 --> 00:19:53,840
something like that like yeah there's still guys coding games for Super

275
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:57,360
Nintendo and finding ways to like flash the ROMs onto cartridges and play them

276
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:01,200
and like you said with Indie Games there always be like Kickstarter they're going

277
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,640
to release and then stretch goals will always be like local platform local

278
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:09,600
platform or right now it's like Linux Linux Linux there will always be like

279
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:16,840
that that that push where there will be a few options for it but um yeah it's

280
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:19,760
going away mainstream mark my words 10

281
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:23,320
years from now you probably won't have any good reason to still have a

282
00:20:21,679 --> 00:20:28,120
dedicated gaming computer uh but there come on guys okay

283
00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:33,520
here here's another thing too is don't worry too about it because there's going

284
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:35,200
to be lots of stuff to Tinker with like

285
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:40,240
there's going to be lots of cool stuff that we can play with as enthusiasts I

286
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:43,080
mean that's like saying you know uh oh

287
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:47,440
you know the uh the desktop PC is never never going away because phones will

288
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:51,679
never take over ra ra ra the reality of it is we all have awesome smartphones

289
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:57,080
that we all use to play games and we all use to do all kinds of things and they

290
00:20:54,679 --> 00:21:01,799
are coexisting that's okay so your local platform that you play your indie games

291
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:06,240
or whatever will coexist but you will have some kind of a cloud service maybe

292
00:21:03,919 --> 00:21:10,600
10 years is optimistic especially for certain countries like I think in places

293
00:21:08,039 --> 00:21:14,799
like Japan where infrastructure costs nothing in places like Europe where the

294
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:17,880
population density is so high compared to how how long did you say you think

295
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:21,360
it's going to take I said 10 years I think that's optimistic that's like I

296
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:25,279
think it'll take longer than that yeah no exactly 100% sure think yeah it'll

297
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:29,360
probably be more like 20 before we actually don't need it'll be a long time

298
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:33,640
so it'll be a long time so don't worry it'll be a long time and the transition

299
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:37,600
will be smooth well smoothish nothing's ever smooth nothing ever works that's

300
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:45,720
rule number one of tech tips thank you for joining us live Beno Beno Beno

301
00:21:40,919 --> 00:21:48,679
please boost to 1080p up from 900p I'm

302
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:56,240
tired of see seeing people ask what it is please boost to 1080p plus up from

303
00:21:53,960 --> 00:22:00,279
900p I'm sorry I don't understand stream in 900 I don't think we're streaming in

304
00:21:57,799 --> 00:22:05,600
900p um I don't think I can check right now

305
00:22:02,279 --> 00:22:07,640
though resolution oh what the heck we're

306
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:11,320
streaming in600 by 900 why are we stream okay sorry guys

307
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:16,039
there's nothing I can really do right now about that the profile must

308
00:22:13,279 --> 00:22:20,840
transfer okay it's all Slick's fault because he was using uh he was using my

309
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:26,600
Twitch account to test some things when he was streaming some game last night

310
00:22:22,559 --> 00:22:29,559
and his monitor is 1680 by 1050 which

311
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:34,360
because you know X splits awesome and doesn't acknowledge 1600 by or 16x 10

312
00:22:32,559 --> 00:22:38,559
resolutions which I understand I understand it's it's a streaming

313
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:41,600
platform for I'm getting new monitors slick says he's getting new monitors I

314
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:47,159
don't I'll believe it when I see it so sorry about that guys we will uh we will

315
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:53,120
have to deal with uh we'll have to deal with that another

316
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:55,880
time um Australia Day cool watching from

317
00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:59,240

319
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:07,919
um or anytime recently so hopefully we'll be doing the gaming peripherals

320
00:23:06,279 --> 00:23:13,159
giveaway very very soon I have them sitting in my waiting to ship stuff out

321
00:23:11,039 --> 00:23:18,480

together and uh and do like a random.org choice for a winner so that's good uh

323
00:23:21,679 --> 00:23:29,080
Tech Team GB says they saw my my story post on my Forum uh they wondered what

324
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:34,000
what I recommend for new reviewers um I think pretty much everything I have to

325
00:23:30,679 --> 00:23:36,000
say is is in that post um if you if you

326
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:39,360
go on the liniste tips.com Forum and search for my story or something like

327
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,080
that basically I just posted I've talked about it on the live streams before so

328
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:46,799
if you've been following for a while then then you'll already know but uh I

329
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:54,880
posted sort of how I got into making YouTube videos and how my career has has

330
00:23:50,159 --> 00:23:57,600
started and sort of continued to evolve

331
00:23:54,880 --> 00:24:03,039
and uh slick is now prepared with our next main topic so let's do a few more

332
00:23:59,279 --> 00:24:05,320
Twitter Q&A things talk about the diaper

333
00:24:03,039 --> 00:24:10,000
video um I don't know what there is to talk about on the diaper video but it is

334
00:24:07,799 --> 00:24:14,279
what it is I mean babies don't really they don't really care they don't really

335
00:24:11,120 --> 00:24:17,880
have any shame have you heard about the

336
00:24:14,279 --> 00:24:19,880
8350 um versus 3570 disagreement going

337
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:25,520
on between Logan and some neck beards no I haven't I yeah he posted a bunch of

338
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:28,080
videos saying that the 8350 beats 3570k

339
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:32,320
oh well it doesn't yeah I know oh okay I'm so that we're clear it I haven't I

340
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:35,880
haven't actually watched his videos um but I think it's like certain I think

341
00:24:34,559 --> 00:24:39,679
what he's actually trying to say is that it wins in very specific use cases well

342
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:46,880
I saw the title of his video but I didn't watch it it was something to do with Twitch streaming and gaming I have

343
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:51,640
no idea what he was aiming at so if you're if you are if you're in an

344
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:56,880
environment where um where you actually have a lot

345
00:24:54,919 --> 00:25:01,919
of multi-threaded junk going on in the background like if you have like three

346
00:25:00,159 --> 00:25:05,559
people Skyping in and you have Windows of them here here and here and then

347
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:10,200
you're streaming from the corner while you're playing a game and you're doing like a stream like that where it's very

348
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:14,919
CPU intensive because it's encoding multiple streams then something like an

349
00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:17,159
8350 could pull ahead of a 3570k because

350
00:25:14,919 --> 00:25:23,399
all them cores yeah because all them cores but uh in sort of the well in

351
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:26,640
situations that most people would encounter that's not really going to

352
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:30,799
happen like we just said though we haven't seen his video you should have

353
00:25:28,159 --> 00:25:34,480
yeah hi Winnipeg sorry hate sucks to be you man um you should have Skype callers

354
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,919
on your live stream you know what it's something that we might do at some point

355
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:42,399
with like uh you know having like diesel join us for example but it'll be a it

356
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:46,159
probably won't happen where we'll take actual live viewers as callers because

357
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:50,279
Twitter is a much more manageable way for us to interact with the

358
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,559
audience uh talk about Intel said they'll stop making desktop CPUs after

359
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:59,000
let's see let's see what they say although actually okay before we do that

360
00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,640
I have another topic Intel is oh my

361
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:06,640
goodness I have I have two more that are awesome yeah that one too so let's start

362
00:26:04,039 --> 00:26:10,600
with let's start with Intel uh is not going to make desktop boards anymore

363
00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:14,120
yeah heard about that y they were never that huge in the motherboard Market

364
00:26:12,279 --> 00:26:19,960
though in some markets it was different was it yes in markets where CU Intel's

365
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:24,919
strength more than well okay they technology so technology here you know

366
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,320
probably branding here and then strength number three I guess if I had to pick

367
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:32,799
one this is off the top of my head so they probably have more strength I mean Intel is just like you know if they had

368
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:38,960
eight arms sticking out of them they'd all be going like this right um but

369
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:43,000
their distribution Network yeah because

370
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:46,200
you can buy an Intel CPU anywhere

371
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:50,360
anywhere yeah so especially years ago

372
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:52,720
when ASUS or DFI or biostar or whatever

373
00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:56,360
DFI and biostar yeah or like markets where ASUS didn't have a lot of

374
00:26:54,159 --> 00:27:00,039
penetration very lowcost markets Intel was actually seen as a premium brand

375
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:06,440
because compared to the other garbage you could buy Intel was reliable it

376
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:08,559
would work every time and and that was

377
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:13,840
that so so Intel actually like is a thing well was a thing when it comes to

378
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:16,799
motherboards but now that has uh that has all change so what does this mean

379
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,840
I'll I'll take your thoughts first while I adjust the angle of the camera a little bit here because it's bugging me

380
00:27:19,559 --> 00:27:27,039
I wonder if they'll be quite so strict on uh the specification for

381
00:27:25,360 --> 00:27:30,159
everything other than that I don't really think it's that big of a deal

382
00:27:31,279 --> 00:27:35,840
I don't know that's really all I have to say that's all you have to say about

383
00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:39,480
Intel not doing motherboards anymore I don't think it's that big of a deal I was never even interested in it

384
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:44,840
motherboards but that's not the point what does it mean for the market we've

385
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:46,600
Consolidated down from okay here I'm

386
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:51,559
going to name all the motherboard makers I can think of from when I was an

387
00:27:48,360 --> 00:27:52,960
Enthusiast at the very beginning okay so

388
00:27:51,559 --> 00:28:00,039
like like I'm talking branded motherboard makers where you could actually go to a store or an online

389
00:27:56,039 --> 00:28:03,080
website and buy it so

390
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:05,360
ECS biostar

391
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:10,279
foxcon soultech MSI ASUS

392
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:16,200
Gigabyte EVGA what are some of the other crazy

393
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:17,880
chain Tech chain

394
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:22,679
DFI um what else was there probably missing

395
00:28:20,559 --> 00:28:30,120
some I'm probably missing a bunch but we're now down to oh Intel right Intel

396
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,120
is another one

397
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:36,640
um I'm sure there's it's probably blowing up with a whole bunch that we

398
00:28:35,279 --> 00:28:43,559
just missed but those are pretty much all the ones I remember yeah so so at least at least a

399
00:28:40,799 --> 00:28:50,120
dozen guys like existed around the in the socket a era and one by one they've

400
00:28:47,399 --> 00:28:55,240
gradually just started a bit there's another one a bit uh there's 13 that's

401
00:28:53,399 --> 00:29:00,000
happened with everything though every single piece consolidation so 13 I name

402
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:03,480
from when I was actually I don't know if I can count EVGA because I don't think

403
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:08,880
they overlapped with soultech so let's say at least 12 active ones at a time so

404
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:15,120
now we're down without Intel we're down to uh oh asrock's another one 14 of

405
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:18,000
course yeah azrock so lots of guys so

406
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:26,559
now we're down to ASUS Gigabyte as like a clear one two then MSI as a clear

407
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:28,200
number three and then ASRock which who

408
00:29:26,559 --> 00:29:32,720
may or may not there was a rumor that ASUS is going to reacquire ASRock

409
00:29:30,159 --> 00:29:37,440
because that's asrock's origin so that would leave us with three Intel will be

410
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:40,960
gone biostar and ECS are still out there but they're just making lowend stuff and

411
00:29:38,799 --> 00:29:44,600
I can tell you the margins are not good like it just won't make any sense at

412
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:49,559
some point and they'll just abandon making Standalone boards evg is still

413
00:29:47,279 --> 00:29:54,320
making evj is still making motherboards but I know that their volumes are not as

414
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:58,399
high as someone like ASUS and the margin's not there because they have to

415
00:29:55,919 --> 00:30:02,600
get someone else to make it for them like whether it's foxcon or orus or

416
00:30:00,519 --> 00:30:07,600
Gigabyte or whoever else they evj is not a manufacturer of

417
00:30:05,159 --> 00:30:12,679
motherboards so that leaves us with what maybe six guys that are still active

418
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:16,960
now I mean CH that's happened with everything though seriously there's

419
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,919
still a lot of video card guys yeah but quite a few of them have fallen too

420
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:26,840
still a lot of peripheral guys if anything there's probably more peripheral is yeah monitors still Lots

421
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:30,760
although there might have been more uh look at gaming Studios looking at our

422
00:30:28,559 --> 00:30:36,240
next topic yeah gaming Studios that has happened like crazy look at the volume

423
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:39,880
of just EA look at what they've like eaten and consumed and destroyed and

424
00:30:38,679 --> 00:30:44,480
left dead well they don't leave everything

425
00:30:42,039 --> 00:30:47,159
dead EA has good stuff the Sims is kind of

426
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:54,720
awesome wasn't that originally their title yeah

427
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:56,120
yeah no um NHL 2013 was that originally

428
00:30:54,720 --> 00:31:00,600
their title which almost didn't happen wasn't that originally their title

429
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:03,039
who have they consumed that has like came out

430
00:31:08,679 --> 00:31:17,279
well because I think they were working on uh Mass Effect one when they acquired

431
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:22,600
BioWare and I think they were working on Dragon Age one so those games were

432
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:25,919
released more from just BioWare standpoint and then Dragon Age 2 came

433
00:31:24,639 --> 00:31:32,320
out I know you haven't played it but like I bought it was it bad

434
00:31:29,039 --> 00:31:34,120
oh hated that game L Dragon Age 1 did

435
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:38,039
not like Dragon Age 2 you can't go anywhere it's just like oh I got to the

436
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,880
main city and I'm just in the main city and any quests that are outside the main

437
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:46,639
city I get to teleport to and then teleport back it's sweet that's so G so

438
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:52,279
boring I mean for me one of the best parts of any kind of an RPG Style game

439
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:57,559
is getting to the next town and like finding all the weird random stuff like

440
00:31:55,320 --> 00:32:02,960
like the the chicken that you can throw down hole or whatever in Zelda or like

441
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:06,000
or like or like the house that you go into in Final Fantasy 6 where the

442
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:10,799
music's different so you know there's going to be like a cooky old man in there the the chicken at the very

443
00:32:09,279 --> 00:32:15,960
beginning of Skyrim you run up and hit it the whole town freaking goes crazy on

444
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:20,360
you like like just awesome little things like that's so cool Mass Effect uh Mass

445
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:24,840
Effect 3 came out my brother and I were both like oh we haven't played Mass

446
00:32:21,919 --> 00:32:28,679
Effect series at all let's not read anything cuz everyone hated Mass Effect

447
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:32,919
3 but we just refuse to read anything cuz we're like we'll catch up right both

448
00:32:30,399 --> 00:32:37,039
played Mass Effect one both absolutely loved it awesome game loved that game it

449
00:32:35,159 --> 00:32:43,679
was great picked up Mass Effect 2 I'm playing on PC I quit in like 15 minutes

450
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:46,360
that's it they they put everything on

451
00:32:43,679 --> 00:32:49,679
like you can tell it was Hardcore made for a controller and if you go into the

452
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:54,000
key bindings to rebind things it's like oh yeah I rebind three moves onto one

453
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:56,840
button on your keyboard what why it's like no I don't want like I don't

454
00:32:55,120 --> 00:33:03,440
remember them all but it's like jump and open and like do this other thing all my

455
00:32:59,159 --> 00:33:04,440
space bar it's like no use is e what are

456
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:09,679
you doing use can be F or F or whatever like

457
00:33:08,159 --> 00:33:12,320
you can bind it to whatever you want right like could be

458
00:33:13,039 --> 00:33:18,360
you wow you know what I mean though yes

459
00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:21,880
like being able to keybind specific abilities is like kind of important and

460
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:27,279
they put it all on single buttons I like screw this you know what I love about

461
00:33:23,559 --> 00:33:29,440
like proper PC games like Quake 3 okay

462
00:33:27,279 --> 00:33:35,039
awesome when got a widescreen monitor I was like okay go into the inii

463
00:33:32,399 --> 00:33:38,679
file key in a value for field of view it's just like bloop key in a value for

464
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:42,760
resolution done it doesn't matter how old and

465
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:47,480
crappy it is if the game developer actually properly makes it customizable

466
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:52,279
and it it can't be that much work they just port and forget how much work is it

467
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:58,399
it's like built-in bench marking utilities how much work is it to record

468
00:33:54,760 --> 00:34:01,120
a stupid time demo

469
00:33:58,399 --> 00:34:07,240
come on like how much publicity does a game developer who produces a benchmark

470
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:09,960
for their game get from everyone

471
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:14,240
everywhere benchmarking their game like what was that um what was that game

472
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:20,960
where the Benchmark was like the big monster that comes out and like does

473
00:34:17,879 --> 00:34:22,760
stuff uh I'm not going to be able to

474
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:26,960
think of it ah I can't think of it either we should like segue from that

475
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:32,639
and talk about whether or not people want those videos Planet 2 was that it yeah that was the one Lost

476
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:35,800
Planet 2 it's like I wouldn't have even considered playing that game cuz I just

477
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:41,320
didn't care and didn't have the time around that time but then there's a benchmark but there's a benchmark so you

478
00:34:38,599 --> 00:34:44,800
see it on every review site for every video card and if your benchmark it

479
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:47,960
looks if your benchmark looks good enough which it should everyone's going

480
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:52,119
to go oh that looks cool I want to play that game super easy to get super easy

481
00:34:50,359 --> 00:34:56,320
adver how much work is that anyway you know what before we go on to the THQ

482
00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:01,560
acquisition what's up we should talk about benchmarking view if people want

483
00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:02,839
it okay Right Far Cry 3 okay um let's

484
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:11,560
take some let's go have a look at Twitter really quick here to see if anyone was able to come up with uh with

485
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:14,720
any that uh that EA hasn't

486
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,280
wrecked uh here we go yeah same

487
00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:22,720
experience as slick playing Mass Effect 2 he kept playing though because uh GIS

488
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:23,800
was sexy GIS is pretty awesome Slick's

489
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:29,440
in agreement with you if you can't hear him I know the shotgun mic's pretty directional sorry I'm late was

490
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:33,320
installing a pass VGA cool my 6870 good luck with that I hope you have some airf

491
00:35:30,839 --> 00:35:39,200
flow Logan attributed two unreleased Windows 7 updates for the reason why

492
00:35:35,359 --> 00:35:40,640
8350 pulled ahead no uh I think you

493
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:44,800
should check out Singularity computers he's a custom builder okay uh what about

494
00:35:43,119 --> 00:35:48,040
Texas Instruments no they were never in motherboards should try Firefall it's

495
00:35:46,839 --> 00:35:53,880
free for two days um wish I had time I'm going to go

496
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:57,680
in and do other things like work when I'm done this my 13-year-old friend is

497
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:04,280
getting a gaming PC and wants an i7 could you convince him he doesn't need an i7 uh he doesn't need one an i7 is

498
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:07,880
not a bad idea send him at the forums get him to go into the Bild Planning

499
00:36:05,720 --> 00:36:11,040
Group y those guys are really good they know what they're doing send them to

500
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:19,560
linest Tech tips.com we are streaming on the xa1 hi from the UK hello hey

501
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:22,640
hello uh agreed exploration for the win

502
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:24,839
yes sir or ma'am Zachary probably not a

503
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:29,480
chick how many gigahertz can I get I don't know go for it find out that's

504
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:33,000
half the fun yeah uh IBM probably manufactured their own boards at some

505
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:37,079
point but I was talking branded and he's talking when he was into it very

506
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:41,440
specifically like but like branded in a retail box marked with the brand uh

507
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:45,520
Zotac and foxcon that's right Zotac does still make motherboards although it's

508
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:49,920
very Niche like very Niche I mean I was also wasn't talking about super micro

509
00:36:47,119 --> 00:36:54,720
and tyan either so Zotac basically just ITX

510
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:56,000
boards um when my comp sleeps it

511
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:59,480
undetect the storage drive I have to restart to be able to play games we're

512
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,359
having a similar issue with our benchmarking platform which is using an

513
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:07,359
ice scuzzy disc that's a little bit different because ice scy disc sort of different okay any update on the build

514
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:10,960
I'm waiting for Mountain mods to ship me back my stuff want to put KN to a fans

515
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:16,040
on my build but I don't like the color any good way to paint it and will it affect performance painting it will

516
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:21,040
affect the balance and could even affect the shape slightly paint is not um

517
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:24,760
insignificant it does have thickness if I was really going to go all out and I

518
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:28,839
was going to really try to put Noctua fans in a system I would try and figure

519
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:32,160
out some way to to dye the plastic because that's probably a better way to

520
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:39,000
do it without adding any weight or any bulk or any uh or affecting the balance

521
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,480
because balance is everything with a

522
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:44,079
high quality fan have you ever actually done that though no or heard of anyone

523
00:37:42,319 --> 00:37:47,720
doing that no because how would you dye it properly how' you dye plastic you'd

524
00:37:46,359 --> 00:37:51,760
have to no because the motor's in there you'd have to you'd have to um put like

525
00:37:49,839 --> 00:37:55,520
some kind of a waterproof thing that would be hard that' be really cool but

526
00:37:53,119 --> 00:38:00,000
that' be a cool mod though black KN to a fans like custom made cuz I love to us

527
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:03,599
but they only work in systems like that like the I guess you can't see can't see

528
00:38:01,599 --> 00:38:06,240
that so green C70 it looks really military it looks really cool throw a

529
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:11,520
saber-tooth in there and it just looks awesome our live stream setup is a Canon

530
00:38:08,720 --> 00:38:16,400
XA 10 we've got a road shotgun mic on it um we're streaming to a black magic

531
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:21,800
intensity Pro capture card we're using xsplit and we've got a 3770 with like 8

532
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:27,880
gigs of RAM as our as our streaming computer running on Onboard video

533
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:33,160
watching from sa where's SA South Arizona I think there's probably

534
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:37,839
more than one San Antonio and we have fans from around the world South Africa

535
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:43,160
South America shout out to all of those places hello everybody

536
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:48,760
um uh there there will probably be a new Chips side it'll probably be like

537
00:38:45,599 --> 00:38:51,599
Z87 or something I know I'm going out on

538
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:57,839
a limb there whoa lus calm down that was creative

539
00:38:58,079 --> 00:39:04,599
also in the snow yes snow shout out to

540
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:06,760
you too editing dual aha dual well

541
00:39:04,599 --> 00:39:11,560
neither editing you don't need either of those things you need one Cuda capable

542
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:18,480
core and preferably a Quadro if you're using Premier Pro PC chips ah yes PC

543
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:22,839
chips there you go that's another one motherboard manufacturer low end stuff

544
00:39:21,119 --> 00:39:26,079
okay uh what temperature is dangerous for laptops internal Hardware I'd say

545
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:28,960
anything above 80 to 85 degrees is probably getting into not too

546
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:33,680
comfortable Zone laptops are usually pretty well like they know what they're

547
00:39:31,119 --> 00:39:37,359
building they're usually cooled enough no updates on the Intel smartphones we

548
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:41,200
did talk about them a little bit at CES the one thing that the that the guys in

549
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:45,760
the booth did mention to us though was that especially the lower cost one was

550
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:49,800
aimed more at developing markets and not so much as a North American thing so

551
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:53,599
it's got like good performance but quite inexpensive so they were aiming to get

552
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:59,200
smartphones down to sort of a few hundred Price Point again uh utilizing

553
00:39:56,720 --> 00:40:05,319
what you're talking about with the uh distribution networks they know where

554
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:08,599
they can push so might as well

555
00:40:05,319 --> 00:40:10,880
mhm speaking of

556
00:40:08,599 --> 00:40:17,119
phones I have officially switched to an HTC 8X I'm running Windows 8 phone

557
00:40:14,720 --> 00:40:21,599
247 and I'm going to do it for at least 30 days before I decide whether I'm

558
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:26,040
going back to iOS and how's that going for you so far I have a list of

559
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:31,560
frustrations actually maybe tomorrow or Monday we should film part two of my I

560
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:35,359
switched blog so you can check it out on the lus tech tips YouTube channel if you

561
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:39,520
haven't seen it already I did a day one one where I went through and everything

562
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:43,440
that bothered me on day one or everything I thought was cool on day one

563
00:40:41,079 --> 00:40:46,839
is all in there and then I have a huge list of notes that's going to make up

564
00:40:45,359 --> 00:40:51,400
the next couple videos where I'm it's going to be sort of everything that happened before day three and everything

565
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:55,440
that happened between kind of day three in day 15 and then I'll probably do one

566
00:40:53,079 --> 00:40:59,960
more at the end of 30 days where I let you guys know based on my experience am

567
00:40:57,720 --> 00:41:04,560
I going to switch back to iOS or am I going to stick with Windows Phone 8 I'm

568
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:08,960
not going Android for all of you who are about to suggest that I buy a Galaxy S3

569
00:41:06,720 --> 00:41:13,400
he refused to try it he grabbed Windows Phone 8 which is like still being

570
00:41:11,119 --> 00:41:17,960
developed for pretty hardcore because it's like oh I've seen his list of notes

571
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:22,680
and there's a lot of stuff that's just like really like the auto rotate thing

572
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:28,280
yeah that one's pretty frustrating you cannot cannot turn off auto rotate on

573
00:41:25,319 --> 00:41:33,440
Windows 8 Windows Phone 8 and not wrong I can hear you all rushing to your

574
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:38,560
keyboards and Googling it Windows Phone 8 does not support disabling auto rotate

575
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:42,560
so if you're using the phone in bed and you want to use it in portrait mode you

576
00:41:41,119 --> 00:41:46,560
cannot do that it will switch to landscape mode on you so then you'll

577
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:49,560
flip it again and it'll go back to portrait mode and then you'll flip it

578
00:41:48,119 --> 00:41:53,599
again and you'll end up in this endless cycle of flipping the phone around not

579
00:41:52,119 --> 00:41:57,760
knowing what's going on and what's up and what's down for people that tuned in

580
00:41:55,480 --> 00:42:01,839
last week my keyboard works that was weird the cable completely

581
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:06,760
broke like it doesn't work on anything else and the driver got messed up at the

582
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:11,880
exact same time so well was probably to do with the broken cable like fing

583
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:16,599
things up maybe yeah um so I had to pitch that cable

584
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:17,880
and and he stole my C I stole your cable

585
00:42:16,599 --> 00:42:25,400
I gave it back did you give my cable back yeah okay cuz I was going to have to charge you for that I'm using

586
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:29,760
the I'm using the detachable cable from my quickfire because the quickfire is

587
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:34,520
detachable cable is awesome it's like sleeved and golden tipped and just sweet

588
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:38,880
so I just shoved it on my ducky and I'm good to go now all right you know what I

589
00:42:37,559 --> 00:42:43,839
want to talk let's talk more consolidation before we do this one okay

590
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:47,200
um well we didn't get any EA answers because I think we scrolled down oh yeah

591
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,760
did anyone actually manage you asked a question and then you clicked on the

592
00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:55,559
comments right away so no one had time to answer it oh okay Intel doesn't make

593
00:42:52,839 --> 00:43:00,760
mother I hope they still do Nicks Logan lus says you're wrong about the 83 50 uh

594
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:05,520
we we have we have we have done a fair bit of testing on that and like I said

595
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:09,880
if he's in a particular scenario and maybe Far Cry 3

596
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:15,960
is an exception maybe we should do Far Cry 3 testing so so hold hold off guys

597
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:18,160
don't sort of he's wrong in the context

598
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:22,440
of most games and anything we've ever tested but if he's found a scenario

599
00:43:20,119 --> 00:43:27,960
where the 8350 comes out ahead we haven't seen his video yes so

600
00:43:25,559 --> 00:43:30,800
there that's a factor we can't actually say he's wrong cuz we haven't seen his

601
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:36,359
video slick your thoughts on the Elder SCS MMO while I eat I am excited and

602
00:43:34,079 --> 00:43:40,839
very very fearful at the same time okay if none of you guys know they released a

603
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:44,160
beta sign up I've been like too nervous to write the ridiculous essay that I'm

604
00:43:42,839 --> 00:43:49,319
going to write for why I should be chosen for this beta I'm actually going

605
00:43:46,599 --> 00:43:52,359
to sit down tomorrow for like an hour or two and like properly script the whole

606
00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:57,160
thing I didn't have time for this and I know you're really really good at

607
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:59,760
like like you took English in University so I'm probably going to send it to you

608
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,599
what did you take I thought you took English I skipped

609
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,760
it anyways I know you're good at that

610
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:12,400
kind of write up so I'm going to send it to you when I'm done to edit it and I'll

611
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:17,000
get you to edit it somehow um hate you you're fired and then I'm

612
00:44:15,319 --> 00:44:21,520
going to hand that in I'm super freaking stoked and scared as hell at the same

613
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:26,240
time because some of the stuff that I've read has been like oh God you're going

614
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:31,119
to destroy everything but then later on they're like hey we listened to our fans

615
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:33,160
and changed it so it could they're

616
00:44:31,119 --> 00:44:36,119
actually listening and like I've seen quite a few videos if you check out the

617
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:40,520
interview videos and stuff they're like hey we go on this forum we go on this

618
00:44:38,079 --> 00:44:44,920
forum we go on this forum we read everything that gets posted under these

619
00:44:42,599 --> 00:44:48,200
forums on these specific like sticky topics and stuff we read everything and

620
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:55,839
they pay attention to what people are saying so they have been fixing things that are like holy crap that's bad so

621
00:44:53,800 --> 00:45:02,040
I'm actually really excited I've been a huge fan of every single Elder Scrolls

622
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:04,640
game ever uh mowind is like by far and

623
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:08,400
large way above everything else in my L of favorite G nothing is far and large

624
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:12,680
if it was far and large then that's the same as it being close and

625
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:16,960
normal no because what if it's like a skyscraper it can be far and large and

626
00:45:14,720 --> 00:45:24,440
close and large

627
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:26,720
touche anyways um it is by far and

628
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:29,880
large my personal favorite game ever I've my like list of games that I just

629
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:35,599
absolutely love and morwin just completely trump card you've also never played any of my favorite games Final

630
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:39,640
Fantasy 6 TI fighter fin Fantasy 6 I haven't played TIE fighter I will I will

631
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:44,319
go back and play them I seriously doubt they will beat morwin though prob

632
00:45:42,079 --> 00:45:49,359
probably not probably not one of my spring breaks in high school I spent

633
00:45:47,319 --> 00:45:55,559
pretty much the entire duration on the couch in front of my TV playing morn

634
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:57,920
almost the entire time I love that game

635
00:45:55,559 --> 00:46:01,040
and i' I've said my story before about figuring out the main quest so I'm not

636
00:45:59,720 --> 00:46:05,280
going to bother repeat that but yeah amazing I'm stoked for Elder schols MMO

637
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:10,319
but like I just said I'm worried too so I hope it comes out well I think it'll come out well but it's probably about

638
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:14,720
time for a Changing of the Guard I mean what do we have Guild Wars 2 Warcraft

639
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:17,800
the 16th or whatever expansion pack they're on now okay I was going to say

640
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:22,240
expansion yeah still technically the same one yeah but come on I mean it's

641
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:26,480
such a different game compared to what it was when it launched completely yeah

642
00:46:24,559 --> 00:46:30,040
it's ridiculous well but that's good that's probably what's kept it fresh

643
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:34,520
that's probably what's kept subscribers too because at the beginning it was it

644
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:37,240
actually oh people might hate me for this I think at the beginning it was a

645
00:46:36,119 --> 00:46:41,839
little bit more hardcore and at the beginning you had to have a 40-man raid

646
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:46,440
group to do raids so you needed this like huge network of people all the

647
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:49,680
servers were self-contained at the very beginning there was no Battlegrounds so

648
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:53,480
all I don't even know what a Battleground is so like there's like a

649
00:46:51,839 --> 00:46:57,240
capture the flag one and there's like a whole King of the never mind anyways at

650
00:46:55,839 --> 00:47:01,839
the beginning you needed 40 people if you wanted to raid there was World PVP

651
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:05,680
that was it and it's all contained on your own server so you knew like all the

652
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:08,800
top guilds on your server you knew like the top dudes of the top Guild on your

653
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:12,520
server because there's only like three really big guilds on the server so you

654
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:15,680
know everyone when you go into PVP if it's you know the guys you're fighting

655
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:19,960
and like it's very possible that you've been in vent with them before even if they're on the other side people don't

656
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:25,839
even use vent that much anymore it's Skype now anyways um like you knew

657
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:29,280
everyone now it's massively across server and now when you look for an

658
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:32,920
instance you just like click a button and click join and a timer goes and then

659
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:37,200
once it finds enough people it's just like join instance and you join in with people from other servers and stuff and

660
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:41,160
you just leave when you're done so there's no like communication really

661
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:45,800
like there used to be so it's more mainstream way more mainstream it's kind

662
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:51,640
of weird I don't know I come from EverQuest days so new MMOs are just kind

663
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:56,559
of icky to me I don't know uh what else we got but I'm still

664
00:47:54,280 --> 00:48:06,040
stoked for the Skyrim one or whoa ell schs one no one uh no one has managed

665
00:48:02,079 --> 00:48:07,960
to post anything so let's take that as

666
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:13,440
no one thinks EA has ever acquired anything and not eared it I just saw a

667
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:19,000
funny Twitter um D D D D D yeah I I see nothing

668
00:48:17,559 --> 00:48:24,200
someone apparently has the same steak knives as me okay so let's talk uh let's

669
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:28,920
talk guys I don't know if you've know if you know this yet but lynxis so if you

670
00:48:27,240 --> 00:48:34,119
guys remember linkis used to be their own thing and then they were acquired by

671
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:36,520
Cisco so any recent linkis router

672
00:48:34,119 --> 00:48:43,160
actually has a big Cisco on it and then like a little like linkis somewhere like

673
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:46,440
maybe on the bottom um Cisco the deal is

674
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:48,920
done has sold off the linkis in fact the

675
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:54,760
entire consumer networking business unit to belon of all

676
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:56,160
companies so Cisco gradually closed

677
00:48:54,760 --> 00:49:04,119
things down like flip I don't know if you guys remember flip video I mean that was doomed anyway just because phones

678
00:49:00,240 --> 00:49:06,440
were catching up so fast was like yeah

679
00:49:04,119 --> 00:49:12,599
I'm going to carry around a dedicated device to film crappy videos no offense

680
00:49:10,079 --> 00:49:17,920
to flip I made a video about the flip way back when and basically because you

681
00:49:15,119 --> 00:49:20,599
know I try not to you know if you don't have anything nice to say don't say

682
00:49:19,240 --> 00:49:25,200
anything at all is sort of the approach that I take but what I did do in the

683
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:28,599
video was I showed a sample video shot with the flip or I shot another video

684
00:49:27,240 --> 00:49:35,720
with the flip so I let people make their own decision and what they think about the Flip's image quality but I had a

685
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:43,760
Flip HD that I B from a friend to film uh me unboxing and talking about a

686
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:46,520
ducky 908 DK 2 you're such a

687
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:51,400
dork if you can find that video prop this guy he does unboxings I don't know

688
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:54,760
the account name to that YouTube I don't know the password to that mysterious

689
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:59,720
account name to that YouTube so I can't help you find it but it's out there somewhere

690
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:04,240
um I don't even know if I'm in it I think I just talk and like I'm holding

691
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:09,240
it towards the thing oh so it's like one of those like um like the horrible P

692
00:50:07,119 --> 00:50:14,200
unboxing you can't see anything in like a dimly lit room and you're like oh yeah

693
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:17,760
I'm really excited about this like mouth breathing into the

694
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:23,000
camera so cool it's not even like it's pretty bad

695
00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:27,400
basically what I do is show off Blue switches that's basically what I did

696
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:33,000
anyways yeah um that's why I had that flip and then I still have it because I

697
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:38,400
haven't seen that guy since okay here we go hey someone defending EA EA acquired

698
00:50:36,599 --> 00:50:43,640
Criterion which are still alive and making happy you know what hold on we're not done with the links this thing so

699
00:50:41,079 --> 00:50:48,359
we'll go back to that hold on okay the look on your face kind of said it all

700
00:50:45,119 --> 00:50:50,160
but uh so guys you know what I'd love

701
00:50:48,359 --> 00:50:57,480
let's ah let's reach out to the twitch chat for a change I love you guys um so

702
00:50:53,920 --> 00:51:02,160
tell us what you think about the

703
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:05,839
lynis uh the lynxis deal where they are

704
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:08,520
being there we go where they are being

705
00:51:05,839 --> 00:51:13,400
acquired by Bellin just seems like such a strange

706
00:51:11,359 --> 00:51:18,319
thing so let's scroll down to the bottom someone just said I hate that Fallout 3

707
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:20,760
doesn't work on Windows 7 it does fix it

708
00:51:18,319 --> 00:51:24,799
someone doesn't care someone loves bacon I think belin's a good company Cisco

709
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:31,720
something bankrupt and something holy crap wow it now I remember why we don't

710
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:35,319
use can't read it okay lynxis is the

711
00:51:31,720 --> 00:51:37,480
whole R uh okay you know what I give up

712
00:51:35,319 --> 00:51:40,760
can one of the mods put on slow mode ah it's okay we're

713
00:51:40,839 --> 00:51:49,319
done that that was pretty much it I mean for me belin's uh I mean okay so why did

714
00:51:46,119 --> 00:51:51,480
Cisco get rid of it because and see this

715
00:51:49,319 --> 00:51:56,240
is this is the thing that kind of kills me about the way business is done versus

716
00:51:54,040 --> 00:52:03,520
the way that uh a normal person might think make sense so Cisco has a certain

717
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:08,720
profit margin that they have to maintain in order to please their shareholders

718
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:12,240
and to make their numbers look good so it doesn't matter how much money they're

719
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:17,160
making in general it's the percentages and everything it's it's making sure

720
00:52:14,079 --> 00:52:18,799
that those numbers all keep growing so

721
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:22,400
you have to grow how much revenue you're doing you have to grow your profit

722
00:52:20,599 --> 00:52:25,559
margin you have to grow your market share you have to grow your unit sold

723
00:52:24,319 --> 00:52:28,920
you have to grow them all at the same time that's what gives shareholders a

724
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:33,839
big happy smiley face and makes them invest money into your company so if I'm

725
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:40,440
Cisco and I'm like okay so I own this linkis consumer consumer brand and they

726
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:46,200
sell routers and maybe compared to Cisco equipment which

727
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:48,240
has well into double digits margins on

728
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:54,599
it oh yeah like well into double digits margins Because the actual bomb cost of

729
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:57,480
a high-end Cisco switch is not this the

730
00:52:54,599 --> 00:53:01,079
opposite of that is peanuts compared to the development and the software that

731
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:04,799
went into it so if they can sell once they're done developing the the thing if

732
00:53:03,079 --> 00:53:07,000
they can actually sell any of them then they're

733
00:53:09,240 --> 00:53:17,000
like and the thing is they'll probably sell quite a few yeah whereas with a

734
00:53:14,319 --> 00:53:20,839
consumer product okay you have to put in all that work developing it but you have

735
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:26,160
to make it up in volume because you're not making more than maybe 20 30 points

736
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:28,400
on actually selling the thing so and

737
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:32,799
then you got to deal with retailers and they want all these backend programs and

738
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:38,480
you got to deal with end users and they want all this you know you got people

739
00:53:35,079 --> 00:53:41,119
calling you and they're like um the

740
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:46,359
lights aren't on did you plug it in well no my internet's not

741
00:53:43,839 --> 00:53:50,200
working um do you have internet is it the

742
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:55,079
WPS does that open the port so that's the kind of thing that a

743
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:59,200
company like Cisco is not really set up for or accustomed to so the amount of

744
00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:03,000
overhead that goes into dealing with retail consumer Brands and how low the

745
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:08,799
margins are compared to their traditional business so if I was sort of

746
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:14,319
the only one making the decision I'd go okay well are they

747
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:16,839
profitable yes are they doing business

748
00:54:14,319 --> 00:54:22,280
are they employing people are they providing a good service to their

749
00:54:18,240 --> 00:54:25,400
customers yes yes yes yes okay leave it

750
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:27,440
alone what's wrong with it whereas from

751
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:31,680
a bigger business perspective are they profitable is not as important as are

752
00:54:29,839 --> 00:54:37,799
they growing our profit margin so there you go Belin on the

753
00:54:35,359 --> 00:54:43,400
other hand is accustomed to the low margin sort of consumer oriented

754
00:54:40,240 --> 00:54:47,799
branding business uh the one concern I'd

755
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:50,680
have about Belin is do they have the do

756
00:54:47,799 --> 00:54:57,480
they have the coonies to do the kinds of things that lynis did where they had

757
00:54:53,119 --> 00:55:02,359
very long-term SKS things like wrt54

758
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:04,960
ran forever amazing things like ea4500

759
00:55:02,359 --> 00:55:08,880
even have a long life cycle compared to what I've seen from typical Belin

760
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:13,400
consumer products where they just they're there and then they kind of

761
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:19,280
they're on fire sale and then they're gone um so yeah I'm I'm I'm very very

762
00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:23,599
interested to see how how all of that shapes down I mean it comes down to that

763
00:55:21,119 --> 00:55:26,319
theme that we had when we excuse me when we were talking about motherboards

764
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:29,680
before where it's that cons consolidation so how many networking

765
00:55:28,079 --> 00:55:31,960
guys are left compared to how many there were

766
00:55:33,359 --> 00:55:40,880
before okay well Cisco doesn't care so

767
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:43,200
just so you know Cisco did nothing wrong

768
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:46,960
they got rid of an asset it's not their problem anymore oh they made a bunch of

769
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:49,680
money selling it and or no they didn't they lost a lot of money because they

770
00:55:48,119 --> 00:55:55,520
acquired it for like five billion or something back yeah but they made Instant Cash okay yes they have cash in

771
00:55:53,000 --> 00:56:02,319
the bank my friend's GPU died out of nowhere sometimes

772
00:55:58,079 --> 00:56:07,599
happens uh sure why

773
00:56:02,319 --> 00:56:10,720
not uh oh Vector nice scared you don't

774
00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:12,680
click on buttons man he seemed like

775
00:56:10,720 --> 00:56:17,480
pretty coherent didn't the last one seemed pretty coherent yeah I think so

776
00:56:14,119 --> 00:56:20,599
and we all got screamed at 75 to $100

777
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,599
mid Tower get a Define

778
00:56:21,039 --> 00:56:26,319
R4 well I know uh GTX 680 now wait for

779
00:56:24,839 --> 00:56:31,680
you know what this is always the internal question let me put it this way

780
00:56:29,119 --> 00:56:37,240
uh if you can afford a GTX 680 right now and it meets your performance

781
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:38,760
requirements go for it GTX 700 series is

782
00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:44,680
going to be a lot more expensive than you can acquire a 6804 right now there's

783
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:48,079
at NC this week There's a GTX 670 for

784
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:51,520
what was it 2 280 or something it's like

785
00:56:48,079 --> 00:56:52,960
289 or 299 or something under $300 after

786
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:59,599
it comes with Assassin Creed 3 after a mail and rebate comes with a game um so

787
00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:04,680
yeah will a 700 series perform better yes will it cost probably double to

788
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:06,520
Triple that yes it will so it's up to

789
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:09,680
you man and one thing you can always do is we don't necessarily support on our

790
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:14,480
forums yet because of multiple reasons but you can jump on a hardware Forum

791
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:18,039
move your card after you buy it and pick up a higher-end one yeah or better yet

792
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:22,359
find someone who's unloading their 680 in anticipation of 700 series right now

793
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:28,400
cuz I guarantee you they're out there yep they're out there they're out there

794
00:57:26,559 --> 00:57:31,920
ni I'm looking for a CPU Cooler and an SSD I'm a heavy gamer which has

795
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:38,559
absolutely nothing to do with your CPU Cooler or your SSD but grab an h100i and

796
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:44,440
grab either an 840 Pro 256 gig or a vector 256 gig lus it's 1:00 a.m. here

797
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:48,319
I'm sorry I can't stay I'm sorry too Brian lus have my babies it really

798
00:57:46,839 --> 00:57:53,319
doesn't work that way that's not really a tech tip but uh you'll just have to

799
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:57,640
trust me on this one yes quickfire TK is a great keyboard for a non-s spacious

800
00:57:55,240 --> 00:58:02,039
area um sorry I don't have time for that

801
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:05,720
right now hi Puerto Rico please fix the focus of the live stream is the focus

802
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:10,880
off I think it's on autofocus so I think it's going back and forth I can try and

803
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:13,440
fix that uh sure okay slicks on it is

804
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:19,720
PCIe 3.0 capable by AMD motherboards only compatible with visher

805
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:21,079
architecture uh yes wait what what the

806
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:25,359
heck is he talking about vishera and bulldozzer are the same thing vishera is

807
00:58:23,599 --> 00:58:32,720
an architecture made up of bulldozer cores so any of the newer FX

808
00:58:28,359 --> 00:58:33,920
8350 80 or 6300 what am I doing I need

809
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:40,839
you to move into the middle cuz it seems in when it focuses move to the middle yeah cuz I need to be able to see you

810
00:58:37,319 --> 00:58:40,839
when it's trying to focus okay

811
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,880
okay is that

812
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:49,599
better it's actually hard to make it

813
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:56,200
focus when you're doing that all right I think that's good though uh slick did

814
00:58:51,319 --> 00:58:57,960
you kill par he says no okay no doesn't

815
00:58:56,200 --> 00:59:00,440
Belin still make their own routers isn't this sort of anti-competitive what do

816
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:06,039
you think Belin is going to do with it they'll probably still maintain both brands in much the same way that Cisco

817
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:09,760
never well they did kind of Rebrand all the rers Cisco but I don't know what was

818
00:59:08,079 --> 00:59:15,240
up with that that was only near the end was it Apple had a motherboard Market uh

819
00:59:12,839 --> 00:59:22,400
okay we're talking guys we're talking about branded motherboards sold on their

820
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:24,799
own guess I won't buy linkx this

821
00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:30,440
anymore 4500s are still going to be awesome even when doesn't own it uh yes

822
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:34,880
we don't bench on a C70 we use that as our thermal test bench I still bench do

823
00:59:32,839 --> 00:59:40,400
you well okay sort of that's a bench yeah it's just a thermal

824
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:42,119
bench I saw it earlier didn't want to

825
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:47,079
say anything so let's just leave that there for a bit oh my God that's awkward

826
00:59:44,599 --> 00:59:51,559
um Jason Lee asks why not sell linkis to dink Rus my bet would be that they

827
00:59:49,039 --> 00:59:57,000
didn't actually have enough money or care to buy it um ASUS is quickly

828
00:59:55,280 --> 01:00:01,559
gaining Market share in the networking space they are just

829
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:04,920
rolling like freaking huge so it kind of makes sense ASUS is just ASUS where

830
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:09,000
you're just kind of like okay the first generation product might not be perfect

831
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:12,559
and the second generation product might not still be perfect but the third

832
01:00:10,839 --> 01:00:16,839
generation one will just sort of roll everything else and everyone else might

833
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:22,039
as well just go home they'll take a bit but they'll get it right and then they'll just Crush yeah that's acus for

834
01:00:20,119 --> 01:00:26,480
you it's like it's like their their mission statement just must just be like

835
01:00:24,559 --> 01:00:31,119
take your time destroy go into new categories question

836
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:36,319
mark destroy because they're ASUS I mean it's

837
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:44,480
not I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing I'm an ASUS kind of guy uh AMD

838
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:44,480
win stock clock crisis

839
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:55,119
Warhead I don't know about this I'm running away my friends oh okay uh okay

840
01:00:53,280 --> 01:01:01,000
I think we we've caught up okay so let's talk about th you being gone bye-bye

841
01:00:58,039 --> 01:01:05,079
okay so so where did it all go consolidation is the theme of the night

842
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:09,039
I couldn't find the exact post that I Foundation is the theme tell me more

843
01:01:06,839 --> 01:01:12,839
about the post I couldn't find the exact post that I used for n link weekly I

844
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:17,880
don't know I looked for it quite a bit using the exact same we filed an episode of n link weekly today that had all of

845
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:23,480
the numbers on it as well but it might not be live yet yeah um but I do have

846
01:01:21,079 --> 01:01:28,359
the company Acquisitions so Sega acquired Relic who makes company heroes

847
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:32,960
in warh Hammer um cotch media how does Sega still exist and THQ doesn't that's

848
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:37,599
what I want to know it actually kind of blows my mind I have no idea like I

849
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:42,160
think Sega own like I don't know this I wish I did but I think Sega kind of just

850
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:45,760
owns a lot of stuff I know they do so who cares they're just a they're they're

851
01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:48,079
in they're a parent company now it doesn't

852
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:53,960
matter coach media the guys that bought volition they're a parent company right

853
01:01:52,279 --> 01:01:58,000
okay they own the they own the company that makes Dead Island okay and Dead

854
01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:04,440
Island wasn't that just one game no they made Dead Island too I'm pretty sure

855
01:02:00,039 --> 01:02:07,119
okay so it was one game twice yeah okay

856
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:12,000
cool um so wasn't it like not a very well regarded game some people really

857
01:02:09,559 --> 01:02:15,240
liked it I've heard kind of broad ends of the spectrum on each side okay some

858
01:02:13,799 --> 01:02:19,240
people liked it a lot or absolutely hated it I think it had fun multiplayer

859
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:22,359
okay or Co-op or something I never actually played it Co-op zombie games is

860
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:26,400
kind of hard to go wrong yeah so like I think that's kind of their thing there

861
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:30,839
I'm not entirely sure though coach cotch I'm not sure how to say this but cotch

862
01:02:27,599 --> 01:02:34,680
media uh took out volition which has

863
01:02:30,839 --> 01:02:37,920
Saints Row and they bought Metro so 2033

864
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:40,480
and the rights to 2034 okay and then

865
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:44,200
krych grabbed Homefront which I think krych is already making Homefront to so

866
01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:47,960
they just bought the whole thing so now it's theirs instead of buying the rights

867
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:52,319
to do it temporarily okay instead of being a developer for yeah yeah so now

868
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:55,880
they own the whole thing so they just basically were like okay we'll take that

869
01:02:54,359 --> 01:02:58,799
if you're offering it all right I me if it's if they knew they were making

870
01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:02,440
actually that's probably a really good sign oh yeah cuz krych knows their

871
01:03:00,599 --> 01:03:06,960
business and if krych thinks whatever they're working on is like going to be

872
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:12,680
good then I sort of trust krych inherently that's good take two who is

873
01:03:09,559 --> 01:03:15,760
2K and Rockstar grabbed evolve which is

874
01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:18,839
a code name project so not sure what

875
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:20,520
that is could it be a new uh what was

876
01:03:18,839 --> 01:03:24,920
that that game by The Sims guy that no one cared

877
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:28,920
about sport sport yeah maybe it's a new sport probably not I don't think so I

878
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:33,079
think wasn't that one of like the biggest devastating so stoked for that

879
01:03:31,359 --> 01:03:37,279
game I bought the like pre-released character creator thing and I bought the

880
01:03:34,799 --> 01:03:42,079
game and was just like what is this is it that bad yeah I paid I played one

881
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:46,920
fulltime through just cuz I was like no I bought both these things I will play

882
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:52,640
it but I just that was a waste of time huh it's just not like they War I gold

883
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:56,240
pre bu they developed it for like ridiculous amounts of time yeah oh yeah

884
01:03:54,559 --> 01:03:59,279
I don't remember how long it was and then it was just like devastating oh

885
01:03:58,079 --> 01:04:02,799
this feels like an indie game that you developed in like a couple months well

886
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:06,160
it was one of those like Allen wake type things where it's like I'm sorry you

887
01:04:04,359 --> 01:04:09,520
were working on this game for how long yeah and then you ended up with what was

888
01:04:08,119 --> 01:04:13,119
apparently I never played it but was apparently a pretty decent game Alan

889
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:19,319
Wake yeah yeah lots of people like it but I mean they were talking about Allan

890
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:20,440
Wake when I was running a 9600 Pro like

891
01:04:19,319 --> 01:04:27,559
I've been talking about this stuff for a long time then it comes out and sucks Ubisoft grabbed South Park Stick of

892
01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:30,400
Truth so have you seen videos for that

893
01:04:27,559 --> 01:04:35,960
no it actually looks like the first game based off like a TV show that I would

894
01:04:33,839 --> 01:04:39,960
actually be interested in I did play the South Park game for N64 though the

895
01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:44,240
snowball fight was awesome I think South Park is the only one that can like

896
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:48,160
really pull it off well they have the like the character style already that

897
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:52,640
they' adapt very well they have sort of as long as they've actually got the

898
01:04:49,839 --> 01:04:56,680
writing team involved to make it I think they did South Park humor like there's

899
01:04:54,839 --> 01:05:01,480
been Simpsons G games that if I hear correctly are somewhat oh The Simpsons

900
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:05,000
Sid scroller is awesome the old arcade game I've never played no I've heard of

901
01:05:03,839 --> 01:05:09,119
it but I've never played oh it's freaking amazing it's like the best sides scroller you're like Bart and

902
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:14,079
you're like swinging your skateboard around and like that's awesome yeah like

903
01:05:12,039 --> 01:05:18,839
bad guys all look like uh Principal Skinner or whatever and like yeah no

904
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:23,279
it's awesome that's sweet so amazing but like actually pretty stoked for that and

905
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:30,920
then they just completely consumed THQ Montreal I just went like oh I see there

906
01:05:26,599 --> 01:05:32,279
ours now so yeah there's one wait I

907
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:37,119
don't think you ever said Ubisoft that's what I don't did you say

908
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:43,279
Ubisoft I think Ubisoft took over South Park SE of Truth and Montreal I think

909
01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:44,680
and then they yeah I think there's one

910
01:05:43,279 --> 01:05:48,920
title I don't remember which one it is it's the group that makes

911
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:53,359
Darksiders they have not been purchased yet and that's because they are not up

912
01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:58,160
for sale okay I'm not entirely sure what's going on there I think it might

913
01:05:55,160 --> 01:06:00,119
be part of the bankruptcy deal but they

914
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:03,240
are not up for sale which is kind of sucky because dark starters was actually

915
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:07,319
pretty awesome it goes to show you how much money it takes to run a publisher

916
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:12,039
and game developer because it wasn't that long ago that THQ wasn't it like a

917
01:06:09,359 --> 01:06:16,119
month ago THQ ran that in bundle that that yeah that Humble Bundle and they

918
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:21,000
made like a lot that injected a lot of cash into the company and they're

919
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:24,079
bankrupt now already yeah like was that did they already know that it was going

920
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:28,440
down no matter what I think the idea with that cuz you notice like steam

921
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:32,039
Humble Bundle like they they picked up a new guy I don't remember who it was and

922
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:36,240
he was like to run their company from there on because their old guy I don't

923
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:40,200
know if it was the CEO but someone highend um was like I can't do this

924
01:06:38,559 --> 01:06:43,599
anymore and stepped back they picked up a new guy and then he just went nuts he

925
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:47,599
pushed the Humble Bundle thing he pushed some crazy aggressive steam sales he

926
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:51,319
just like went absolutely crazy but I just guess it wasn't enough probably

927
01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:56,559
spiraling too hard couldn't pull it out of it and then they just died I bet you

928
01:06:54,000 --> 01:07:01,680
if they were able to survive to things like uh company Heroes 2 if they able to

929
01:06:59,559 --> 01:07:05,079
survive to that release they might have been able to pull it back out right but

930
01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:09,680
they probably just couldn't live that long which is really unfortunate because

931
01:07:07,039 --> 01:07:12,480
THQ is pretty awesome I'm actually pretty upset that they're gone but some

932
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:17,520
of the Acquisitions I'm crisis yeah or krych

933
01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:23,279
rather krych Ubisoft Ubisoft has been doing really great so far okay lately

934
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:25,960
now except for you play I'm sorry but

935
01:07:23,279 --> 01:07:29,480
you play is like come on guys what did it do the other

936
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:33,000
day that was oh yeah we had all the files in the install directory and we

937
01:07:31,279 --> 01:07:36,359
went to play the game and it just it just disappeared gone had no idea

938
01:07:35,119 --> 01:07:41,760
completely gone no idea it was there I mean this is stuff that even uh even

939
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:47,240
that other one that I even the gross orange circle of origin yeah origin even

940
01:07:44,079 --> 01:07:49,200
origin has that figured out um I haven't

941
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:52,279
set up my entire house with Inson I haven't had time and one of the light

942
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:57,319
switches I wired wrong so one of my other lights doesn't work so I'm sort of

943
01:07:54,839 --> 01:08:03,319
I'm waiting is that that one yeah that's why that's why that doesn't work yeah

944
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:07,599
okay so I'm um I can never find my shoes

945
01:08:03,319 --> 01:08:10,279
my brilliant plan is to go ahead and uh

946
01:08:07,599 --> 01:08:14,520
hold off on that for now until I can afford to do the whole house and have an

947
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:18,560
electrician come in and just do it for me because it'd be pretty cool I don't

948
01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:22,480
know if inston is the one I'd go with um just because I don't I haven't and I'm

949
01:08:20,359 --> 01:08:24,920
not saying I wouldn't but I haven't looked haven't tried the other ones yeah

950
01:08:23,719 --> 01:08:30,600
I haven't tried anything else and I haven't seen they have in terms of like a software interface for managing the

951
01:08:28,799 --> 01:08:34,920
whole thing with automated like programmable events okay like the phone

952
01:08:33,279 --> 01:08:38,480
app is good and it works and blah blah blah blah blah like and all it all works

953
01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:42,679
but I need to know if I can program things like while I'm away if I can have

954
01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:46,319
random lights turn on at random intervals make it look like you're at

955
01:08:44,279 --> 01:08:50,920
home and what yeah so cool cool stuff like that baby mode would be cool just

956
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:57,440
have everything in the house turn off baby mode yeah be like baby sleeping

957
01:08:52,839 --> 01:08:57,440
mode just like power down everything

958
01:08:57,759 --> 01:09:03,080
yeah turn off the home theater so then when he cries and I'm trying to go and

959
01:09:01,159 --> 01:09:08,319
get to him then I can trip over his toys and step on his Legos and I didn't mean

960
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:12,279
lights I me things that made noise calm down I meant things that make noise it's

961
01:09:10,799 --> 01:09:18,319
completely unrelated to lights I don't think there's anything in my house that makes noise you have kind of a eerily

962
01:09:16,440 --> 01:09:23,440
quiet house yeah my house is sort of quiet um lonus what's the Forum server

963
01:09:20,759 --> 01:09:26,520
running don't ask me Forum server running what do you mean what do you

964
01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:33,759
mean Hardware software what are you talking about Apache Cent Apache

965
01:09:30,239 --> 01:09:37,839
Centos uh what board's in there 980f

966
01:09:33,759 --> 01:09:42,359
980x it's a 980x on an MSI Big

967
01:09:37,839 --> 01:09:44,759
Bang yeah yeah oh yeah big bang X power

968
01:09:42,359 --> 01:09:48,040
we had a 650 TI in there that got pulled out and replaced with what card did you

969
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:53,319
give me I don't know what that was uh I think it was a 2600 XT passive passive

970
01:09:51,279 --> 01:09:59,159
card passive yeah passive card pretty cool um some fsp 400 power supply we had

971
01:09:56,440 --> 01:10:02,480
a stock cooler in there that uh this was due to Slick's utter incompetent

972
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:06,679
actually you know what I must have had it in there so it's possible it's got

973
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:10,199
plastic push pins so I think one of them popped out or maybe I didn't have it

974
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:13,760
quite in enough so that was uh that was causing some overheating and CPU

975
01:10:12,199 --> 01:10:17,360
throttling so we have a stock Intel cooler in there that's like one of the

976
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:22,199
baller ones with the blue LED and like the copper all around it and like an

977
01:10:19,679 --> 01:10:27,640
extreme Edition stock heat sink to explain a lot of the outages um we now

978
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:29,040
have a new boss mode firewall and since

979
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:35,560
it's been installed how many times has he said we've been attacked I think it was like 9,000 times that this one guy

980
01:10:33,719 --> 01:10:40,239
like the afternoon after the new firewall was installed it was hit some

981
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:44,239
guy was hitting it like 9,000 times and then like that afternoon we're getting

982
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:50,600
dosed right away so like we've been getting hit pretty hard um we had power

983
01:10:47,159 --> 01:10:51,800
issues today oh that was awesome explain

984
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:56,600
what was running on what the electricians wired up the tech tips

985
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:00,960
Studio incorrectly so there's a bank of eight Outlets that's supposed to run all

986
01:10:58,199 --> 01:11:04,480
the lights and it's a 30 amp circuit for these eight Outlets so it's supposed to

987
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:10,679
run all of the lights and the test computers and all that stuff and it went

988
01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:15,679
out and I'm like what form server goes down I'm fre so 30 amp circuit goes out

989
01:11:14,239 --> 01:11:20,360
I mean what were we running off the thing like a microwave you know 2,000

990
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:24,320
watt like no we didn't have a microwave so I'm like okay so I go down to the

991
01:11:22,440 --> 01:11:27,400
breaker and I call up the warehouse manager I'm like the only only one

992
01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:31,440
that's tripped is this 50 amp breaker everything else is fine and he's like no

993
01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:35,120
no for sure they hooked up that one to the 30 amp breaker and the other one to

994
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:41,080
the other thing I'm like so we we dig into it and it turns out that we have

995
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:43,719
basically the TV in the back of the NC

996
01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:48,040
Tech tip set running off of a 30 amp breaker and then we have a 15 amp

997
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:53,440
breaker for all of our lights and test benches and everything else and the

998
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:55,000
servers and everything and everything so

999
01:11:53,440 --> 01:11:58,400
that happens so the electrician's coming in to switch that around and then we had

1000
01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:02,440
to find another circuit we had to run a wire from there to run the server off of

1001
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:07,280
in the meantime so it doesn't go down when the electrician comes in and

1002
01:12:03,719 --> 01:12:10,480
switches it around and then I had to we

1003
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:12,239
I had to take out the 650 TI I had to

1004
01:12:10,480 --> 01:12:19,480
take out the 660ti that was in my Windows

1005
01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:22,400
Server um this is actually pretty funny

1006
01:12:19,480 --> 01:12:27,239
I'm going to show this someone says I found slick and it's uh like a me hold

1007
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:32,719
on hold on hold on hold onol it's like a meme picture called

1008
01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:36,159
friend zone uh keep telling yourself it's better than demotivational poster

1009
01:12:34,480 --> 01:12:40,199
yeah it's whatever you're a demotivational poster it does kind of

1010
01:12:38,239 --> 01:12:43,080
look like you though actually does it yeah here hold your head above above

1011
01:12:41,760 --> 01:12:49,440
that guy I have to go like well now you're so

1012
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:52,560
close yeah see now it totally looks like that's awesome I usually have short hair

1013
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:57,120
though I just haven't gotten a haircut in like seven months yeah

1014
01:12:58,120 --> 01:13:05,239
do you want a beta key for Firefall uh I'm

1015
01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:08,880
okay I probably would never play yeah I don't really have much no time for MMO

1016
01:13:07,199 --> 01:13:12,960
you guys sorry man I appreciate it but it would probably be better spent on

1017
01:13:10,239 --> 01:13:16,360
someone else we appreciate it um do we have any other topics for tonight I'm

1018
01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:19,199
sure there was something the Far Cry 3 Benchmark video oh I want to know if

1019
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:25,920
people are interested okay you talk about that I'll go see if I had any other notes okay so we're planning a

1020
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:32,280
bunch of videos for like actually some of the cards are behind me

1021
01:13:27,719 --> 01:13:34,600
like what card for what card is best AMD

1022
01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:39,360
versus NVIDIA so we'll show like the best two cards under different price

1023
01:13:36,440 --> 01:13:42,520
points uh for Far Cry 3 so we're choosing three different price points

1024
01:13:40,639 --> 01:13:47,639
you guys will see the videos but um I had to set up the Benchmark for it and

1025
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:53,080
it's kind of a fun Benchmark so what I want to do is show my methodology for

1026
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:56,760
The Benchmark so it's if you played one of the uh if you've played Far Cry 3

1027
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:59,440
it's one the trials and it's the one where you're driving in the Jeep and you

1028
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:04,440
have to hit everyone you have to run over all the guys so what my methodology

1029
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:07,480
is you drive around you drive up the thing you hit all the time barrels but

1030
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:10,960
the plan is you don't hit any of the guys to make it consistent because it's

1031
01:14:09,159 --> 01:14:16,520
way easier to not hit the guys than it is to hit the guys so I was wondering if

1032
01:14:13,679 --> 01:14:24,080
you guys are interested in us posting a video of like lonus describing what the

1033
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:25,719
Benchmark is about showing like me

1034
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:28,719
getting into the game and then showing where where I start The Benchmark

1035
01:14:27,239 --> 01:14:32,920
starting The Benchmark going through the whole thing and ending it and then

1036
01:14:30,719 --> 01:14:36,679
lineus ending off the video if you guys would actually think that's interesting

1037
01:14:34,159 --> 01:14:40,600
content we've never shown our benchmarking methodology that deeply

1038
01:14:39,159 --> 01:14:44,920
before like we've never shown the actual run fully I don't think uh I think I've

1039
01:14:43,440 --> 01:14:49,239
done videos where the camera's over my shoulder over your shoulder and you're doing The Benchmark but we haven't like

1040
01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:53,400
properly shown the whole Benchmark in fraps like on the screen so you can see

1041
01:14:51,199 --> 01:14:56,960
it really clearly before and we'd like for you guys to be able to run it and

1042
01:14:55,120 --> 01:15:00,600
compare your own system so you can go okay what kind of performance do I get

1043
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:04,520
versus if I was running a system like what they're running that's cool right

1044
01:15:03,440 --> 01:15:09,080
yeah and I think this would be really fun in his uh section of the Forum the

1045
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:12,920
lonus whatever whatever ramblings section if he posts that video up and we

1046
01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:18,280
can show our results and then you guys can show all your results of your systems yeah that' be cool so everyone

1047
01:15:16,199 --> 01:15:22,000
yeah so everyone can see like okay if I get this system it will run Far Cry 3

1048
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:25,520
this well and that's cool because compared to most like uh reviews or

1049
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:33,199
whatever else where you have whatever their revieww system was you don't necessarily you

1050
01:15:30,159 --> 01:15:34,639
need more variety than that because the

1051
01:15:33,199 --> 01:15:38,679
way that you do a review is very different from the way that you look at

1052
01:15:36,480 --> 01:15:44,719
overall how does this game Run on a variety of of platforms because you tend

1053
01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:46,480
to do things like overball out the CPU

1054
01:15:44,719 --> 01:15:49,760
so that you can see the differences between all the graphics cards whereas

1055
01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:54,600
if we have people posting their configurations CPU GPU RAM um it's

1056
01:15:53,679 --> 01:16:00,520
probably the only thing that really matters uh CPU GPU RAM and frames per second

1057
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:04,600
then that gives us a really clear picture of what which platforms it runs

1058
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:09,400
best on and what affects the performance of that particular uh game yeah I did

1059
01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:13,920
have something that I forget now someone will post that sometime being like I

1060
01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:17,600
have a 3570k and a sabertooth with 8 gigs of RAM and then everyone will be

1061
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:26,040
able to properly see what their system like whatever graphics card all right so

1062
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:30,239
I uh I called the Bell customer service

1063
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:33,520
quote uh buttheads unquote on the last

1064
01:16:30,239 --> 01:16:36,880
live stream and I would just like to say

1065
01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:39,239
that they have proven themselves to me

1066
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:45,080
in in my in my eyes they have really gone above and beyond the Call of Duty

1067
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:47,719
and they actually had did did I I don't

1068
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:53,320
think I even told you this but the guy who called me to follow up on what was

1069
01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:57,120
going on so they tracked down my name and my phone number and called me and

1070
01:16:55,320 --> 01:17:02,800
they were like is this a good time to talk because our understanding is that

1071
01:17:00,199 --> 01:17:07,280
you may have had a negative experience with Bell customer service which I

1072
01:17:04,679 --> 01:17:11,080
should clarify it wasn't quite so much that it was a negative experience as

1073
01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:17,080
that it was a complicated and timec consuming experience they

1074
01:17:14,719 --> 01:17:22,520
um what I was doing was I was transferring the ownership of a cell

1075
01:17:19,199 --> 01:17:25,440
phone plan from a corporate account to a

1076
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:31,320
personal account to a different small business account under someone

1077
01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:34,639
else's existing account so what I was

1078
01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:37,960
doing was extremely complicated on top

1079
01:17:34,639 --> 01:17:39,600
of that I was changing my plan and I was

1080
01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:43,719
trying to see if I qualified for a hardware upgrade and I was trying to get

1081
01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:47,760
a new phone so that's what was going on that's

1082
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:53,280
why I was on the phone with Bell customer service for like an entire day

1083
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:57,120
um they were more difficult than because people didn't really understand exactly

1084
01:17:55,040 --> 01:18:01,560
what I was trying to do and for their small business plans they're not just on

1085
01:17:59,199 --> 01:18:06,360
the website you can't actually do like a comparison so everything's verbal so

1086
01:18:04,520 --> 01:18:12,239
there's a lot of miscommunication whereas finally I just got in a car and

1087
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:14,600
went to the Bell store and got someone

1088
01:18:12,239 --> 01:18:17,280
to pull out their cheat sheet that only they're allowed to see it says like

1089
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:21,679
confidential everything all over the top of it and I was like look no one can

1090
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:24,480
give me a clear idea of exactly what's in this plan so how about you look that

1091
01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:29,639
way for a minute I'm going to take a picture of this so that if there's ever

1092
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:33,040
any debate about what my plan entails

1093
01:18:29,639 --> 01:18:35,800
we'll all know so so that that got done

1094
01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:39,960
and then they clarified everything and um I was just frustrated because it took

1095
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:44,719
so long and I was also frustrated because because of what the existing

1096
01:18:42,679 --> 01:18:50,040
owner of the corporate account integrated my phone number had done

1097
01:18:47,480 --> 01:18:54,120
before I didn't qualify for a hardware upgrade even though I otherwise would

1098
01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:58,520
have so uh so that was where some of the miscommunication was there because they

1099
01:18:55,639 --> 01:19:02,520
had renewed my agreement when they moved it over to something else in some way so

1100
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:05,280
that's why I didn't qualify for my Hardware upgrade so I was frustrated

1101
01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:09,960
about that as well but it wasn't actually Belle's fault in that case so

1102
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:14,000
before you guys sort of go like oh lus is paid off by Bell I can tell you right

1103
01:19:11,480 --> 01:19:18,199
now I'm not I pay a Bell cell phone bill just like every other Bell customer uh

1104
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:23,239
they did clarify a couple of things about my plan that I hadn't managed to

1105
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:24,880
figure out until now um but they were

1106
01:19:23,239 --> 01:19:28,520
they were sort of deeply concerned that I had you know called because they

1107
01:19:26,880 --> 01:19:31,920
didn't say that I called them buttheads but they said that I might have had a

1108
01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:36,239
complaint and I couldn't actually remember even mentioning it in the live

1109
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:40,120
stream it was slick who told me that in the live stream I had said something

1110
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:43,960
about Belle so I had to go back and watch the AR time where I was like oh I

1111
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:47,400
called them buttheads that's probably that's probably why they were upset so

1112
01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:51,480
our new plan is to call everyone buttheads yeah so we're going to start

1113
01:19:49,159 --> 01:19:55,960
with Intel Intel's a bunch of buttheads they're just all they're all buttheads

1114
01:19:53,600 --> 01:20:00,239
they're all buttheads but let's see if I get a call from oh right so the guy who

1115
01:19:58,199 --> 01:20:07,000
called me reports directly to the VP at Bell or AVP anyway we need to like

1116
01:20:04,679 --> 01:20:12,000
seriously call everyone buttheads so I need I'm expecting a call from Craig

1117
01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:16,960
Barrett himself at this point you know apologizing

1118
01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:18,840
for whatever whatever whatever Intel did

1119
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:24,040
to wrong us blam you for making good CPUs yeah

1120
01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:29,560
what's your problem you make so many CPUs that like we can't find any other

1121
01:20:26,679 --> 01:20:29,560
things that are better to

1122
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:36,080
buy so there so anyway uh yes I was

1123
01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:39,880
frustrated it was probably not very nice of me to call them buttheads because I

1124
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:44,440
realize now that I sort of have a fair number of people watching so you know I

1125
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:48,880
I'll be fair next time and I'll actually explain what happened and then I'll let

1126
01:20:46,639 --> 01:20:52,400
you guys decide if you think that the company in question is buttheads or if

1127
01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:59,159
they're not so there you go awesome a yeah that

1128
01:20:56,880 --> 01:21:01,520
was sort of awesome uh so let's do some Twitter Q&A and then I think we're

1129
01:21:00,480 --> 01:21:08,120
probably going to wrap it up a little bit early because I think we're both really tired do I speak for both of us

1130
01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:11,840
yes but gabri yes you'll have his babies I was talking about Gabriel's

1131
01:21:10,159 --> 01:21:15,040
comment go you're talking about babies bring up marius's comment as well and

1132
01:21:13,199 --> 01:21:19,600
yes we love pure Android compared to anything

1133
01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:24,199
else pure Android is like everything else should be cleansed yeah no offense

1134
01:21:22,719 --> 01:21:30,360
to everyone else who tries to not do pure right I mean I love you guys

1135
01:21:28,239 --> 01:21:34,679
but no not really maybe a little bit in some games

1136
01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:39,199
but for the amount of extra power it's going to consume a 260 with a what did

1137
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:42,920
you say 670 yeah that would almost slow it down no a 260 is way fast no slick

1138
01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:49,000
doesn't know what he's talking about for f x yeah trust me fys X only slows down

1139
01:21:47,199 --> 01:21:56,360
if you use like really old fail stuff like 9600 GT I run an 8,800 with a

1140
01:21:53,520 --> 01:22:00,600
460 which is a similar Gap and it slowed it

1141
01:21:57,239 --> 01:22:02,400
down okay it's not about the Gap no I

1142
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:07,920
know I'm just yeah it's just about whether the card can do the phys GTX 260

1143
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:10,199
is still a very capable

1144
01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:13,440
card watching from Norway at a land party go play games that's what I was

1145
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:17,400
saying that's why I said go to Gabriel's oh yeah go play games

1146
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:20,520
Gabriel I mean you can watch us too just make sure you have two monitors two yeah

1147
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:25,360
or like a smartphone which most land parties don't allow unless you're at like a buddy's house no because you

1148
01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:30,239
could use um here you have to buy two seats this is what I used to do at uh at

1149
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:34,040
land actually did you buy two seats no okay no no I didn't do that do I

1150
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:38,120
honestly do you think I would pay for two of anything no but I was thinking

1151
01:22:35,639 --> 01:22:41,560
maybe a land party exactly so this is what I used to do if I wanted to have

1152
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:49,440
some kind of content that I was listening to at the same time I'd get open earbuds so not in not imem but like

1153
01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:54,880
just earbuds and then I'd wear my gaming headphones over top of them so that I

1154
01:22:51,719 --> 01:22:57,480
could listen to music but actually have

1155
01:22:54,880 --> 01:23:00,360
like my game sound not necess so so if I needed to get rid of them I could I

1156
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:06,000
could take them out at a moment's notice that's sort of so you have your smartphone running the live stream here

1157
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:10,440
and then uh so that would be on like the Wi-Fi network which they've probably got

1158
01:23:07,639 --> 01:23:13,960
segregated and qos out the yinyang and then uh you could have everything else

1159
01:23:12,199 --> 01:23:18,120
sort of running off of your wired connection what are some games you're

1160
01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:22,880
looking forward to in 2013 I'm looking forward to the Star Citizen

1161
01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:28,960
Alpha yeah and that's about it Star Citizen uh

1162
01:23:25,719 --> 01:23:31,120
oh what is it called planetary Planet

1163
01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:35,600
Planetary Annihilation Planetary Annihilation looks sweet does it yeah SS

1164
01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:42,040
it's an RTS game but you can like expand to the moon and then like shoot like oh

1165
01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:45,639
you can grab asteroids and strap Rockets to the asteroids and bomb your enemy's

1166
01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:50,280
base with asteroids so basically it's civilization except after you make the

1167
01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:57,000
spaceship there game freaking awesome and like you can fight people with like

1168
01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:59,239
planetary object X which is just sweet

1169
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:04,120
it brings back to the like '90s level of just awesome just like doesn't make any

1170
01:24:01,679 --> 01:24:07,960
sense but sweet I remain skeptical I think it's going to be awesome it's

1171
01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:11,679
Kickstarter game look it up my 660 keeps crashing usually happens during a visual

1172
01:24:09,719 --> 01:24:15,600
glitch and comes back in like 4 seconds could be a power issue um could be an

1173
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:20,239
overall system stability issue may not actually be directly related uh neither

1174
01:24:18,679 --> 01:24:25,239
neither of those are neither of those are good Solutions uh what graphics card would

1175
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:29,120
you recommend for intense video editing on Adobe software any Cuda capable card

1176
01:24:27,679 --> 01:24:33,480
particularly a Quadro Far Cry 3 bench go got it you

1177
01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:37,520
still planning on Switching the form software due to all the glitches no no

1178
01:24:36,199 --> 01:24:43,920
we're going to stick with v bullets and five there are some issues but uh by and

1179
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:46,440
large it it works works there's a lot of

1180
01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:51,440
like okay another bajillion showed out to Mr Wizard and the rest of the mod

1181
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:54,000
team um but sorry rest of the mod team

1182
01:24:51,440 --> 01:24:58,760
mainly Mr Wizard we've been like fighting

1183
01:24:54,920 --> 01:25:00,719
V Buon 5 to make this thing work um

1184
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:04,520
there have been an incredible amount of problems but we've also made an

1185
01:25:02,639 --> 01:25:09,440
incredible amount of progress it's fairly stable right now most the out

1186
01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:12,679
outages that you see is because like we were running it in a horrible ghetto

1187
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:17,880
state with like Hardware that shouldn't have been in there and stuff so today there was some oages that had to do with

1188
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:21,199
power and me moving it across the room and to where it should stay for should

1189
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:24,719
stay forever and like we're still working on the permanent solution we and

1190
01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:28,400
we got their new firewall so had to go down while the new firewall was

1191
01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:36,040
installed but it's like $1,300 firewall so like Yay like we're bye-bye DS yeah

1192
01:25:33,679 --> 01:25:39,440
hopefully they can still happen we're we're we're moving forward we're working

1193
01:25:37,639 --> 01:25:44,080
on things this isn't a huge budget project so we're trying to like yeah you

1194
01:25:42,080 --> 01:25:46,880
got to throw that in hey well I'm not I'm not giving him the budget for rack

1195
01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:50,760
space is basically what he's he's not giving me the budget for any external

1196
01:25:48,719 --> 01:25:55,360
hosting well we could have done external hosting if it was like that website

1197
01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:57,480
hosting plan that included like no St

1198
01:25:55,360 --> 01:26:00,239
like how many five gigs of storage or something no what was it for the

1199
01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:03,280
database you were allowed to have as many databases as you want but they

1200
01:26:01,639 --> 01:26:06,880
couldn't be more than like 10 BS or something or one gig yeah and that was

1201
01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:10,920
the biggest plan that was like pretty expensive and he wasn't stoked about and

1202
01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:15,400
then we had like five gigs of hard drive storage and like 512 megabytes of RAM

1203
01:26:13,239 --> 01:26:20,679
which not going to fly I mean oh for context the server has 48 gigs of RAM so

1204
01:26:18,199 --> 01:26:26,639
it's caching a lot of the pages in RAM rather than actually running off of the

1205
01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:31,159
256 gig SSD that's in there falling back

1206
01:26:26,639 --> 01:26:33,480
to the 1 tbte re4 Enterprise level raid

1207
01:26:31,159 --> 01:26:36,119
one that is basically backing up everything what we did have budget for

1208
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:43,119
was computer hardware yeah we had budget for that yes

1209
01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:44,239
because we had it but like H there's a

1210
01:26:43,119 --> 01:26:49,639
lot of stuff that still has to get in place one thing that I'm planning on doing and I've seen posts about this is

1211
01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:54,840
rolling out ads on that right side under the thank you NCI label which is like

1212
01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:58,920
just void space right now there was a poll someone put up a poll asking really

1213
01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:02,719
some dude on the form put up a poll being like we should do this because they're thinking to help with the

1214
01:27:00,840 --> 01:27:07,040
charity drive okay which it would alleviate costs so it would well that

1215
01:27:05,159 --> 01:27:10,360
doesn't necessarily contribute in any way to the charity drive the charity

1216
01:27:08,480 --> 01:27:14,360
drive is a different thing but it would help us guys make sure if you're not

1217
01:27:12,639 --> 01:27:18,719
doing it already just click the like button on all of our videos because if

1218
01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:23,199
we hit our Target for this month we're going to donate $250 to the charity of

1219
01:27:21,239 --> 01:27:27,440
your choice if you visit the Linus Tech tips Forum in the charity section uh go

1220
01:27:25,719 --> 01:27:30,440
there and then you have an option for a lot of different charities that we can

1221
01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:34,360
contribute it to it basically comes directly out of my pocket so which is I

1222
01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:39,920
think what the poll was about it was about just helping you in general not necessarily it was a thanks for the

1223
01:27:37,480 --> 01:27:43,280
charity I'm okay I know but I'm just they're trying to be nice so they said

1224
01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:48,800
do you want to put that there and people either said yeah do it or I don't really

1225
01:27:46,560 --> 01:27:52,199
care okay no one actually said no so if the form was ad supported apparently

1226
01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:57,960
people don't really get bothered by that no they don't want moving ads okay they

1227
01:27:55,320 --> 01:28:01,639
don't want flashing like crazy stuff they want like stable kind of normal

1228
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:05,600
looking images so basically they want the ads that they can

1229
01:28:03,440 --> 01:28:09,639
ignore no I think they want the ads that aren't like there's a difference there's

1230
01:28:08,199 --> 01:28:14,920
a big difference you know which one used to drive me crazy the one where it was

1231
01:28:12,159 --> 01:28:18,400
uh it was an ad for some Smiley package and the guy says say something do you

1232
01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:22,639
remember that one ridiculous and the other one that I

1233
01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:26,280
hate is the one where it's like move your mouse to like punch punch George

1234
01:28:24,679 --> 01:28:30,440
Bush or whatever it is because I always just want to do it I want to on but you

1235
01:28:28,639 --> 01:28:34,600
have to hit usually it's like a Target you have to hit it like three times or

1236
01:28:31,719 --> 01:28:39,360
something so I'll do it like twice um yes so we'll probably be

1237
01:28:37,239 --> 01:28:43,080
rolling out ads not crazy ones I think they just don't want that like attack

1238
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:46,320
your face right but we'll we'll put like at least fairly passive ads we'll put it

1239
01:28:45,159 --> 01:28:49,719
on the right side and we'll try and alleviate some of that cost uh 2400

1240
01:28:48,159 --> 01:28:53,280
people watching tonight so it's a little slower than some other weeks but uh it

1241
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:58,280
is what it is and we're glad that you guys are tuned in we appreciate it 2440

1242
01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:06,760
we care about those 40 apparently his e4200 V2 slowed down his internet that

1243
01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:08,080
uh is probably something else or like

1244
01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:13,080
legendarily broken uh Sean why do I hate consoles

1245
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:17,159
two words and I will illustrate these words although I'm stoked for the new

1246
01:29:15,480 --> 01:29:21,480
PlayStation new Xbox because it'll push ported games to be better okay that yes

1247
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:26,679
but okay oh okay well then more than two words keyboard and mouse are words one

1248
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:33,280
and to and then the other things are holding back game development the only

1249
01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:38,239
reason we don't have games that have real time calculations and physics as

1250
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:43,560
part of the core gameplay are because they have to Port it to consoles so

1251
01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:47,119
there that's why consoles bother me I don't hate consoles he's like think

1252
01:29:45,679 --> 01:29:52,880
about it NVIDIA Shield is using a controller good for that I won't play

1253
01:29:50,239 --> 01:29:59,440
Shooters on it I can tell you that right now racing games on conses racing games

1254
01:29:55,679 --> 01:30:00,920
yay um sports games yay I play

1255
01:29:59,440 --> 01:30:06,239
Assassin's Creed on the computer but I use an Xbox controller RPGs yay lots of

1256
01:30:04,119 --> 01:30:11,600
stuff is way better on Console compared to computer

1257
01:30:08,840 --> 01:30:16,000
um yeah not all RPGs are better on console for computer I think that flows

1258
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:20,800
back on the RPG I'm thinking like Final Fantasy style way way way better console

1259
01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:26,560
like you play it with a controller like there's no reason you'd have to play it with a keyboard okay um

1260
01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:30,280
um let's jump back on consoles real quick as far as I've seen both of them

1261
01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:35,679
are coming out with eight gigs of RAM and eight cores okay so like oh yeah

1262
01:30:33,639 --> 01:30:40,840
right the Xbox uh whatever it's going to be called spec leak we didn't even talk

1263
01:30:37,239 --> 01:30:42,840
about play leaks too I heard that

1264
01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:47,159
there's no way that that happened at the same time no I think PlayStation leaked

1265
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:50,600
earlier actually completely intentional like for them to both be around the same

1266
01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:54,920
time you know you got to imagine both around the same spec you you got to

1267
01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:58,719
imagine like Xbox EX and like PlayStation Executives sitting

1268
01:30:56,600 --> 01:31:02,760
around a table with like cigars and like playing cards and like discussing you

1269
01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:07,440
know the schedule on which they'll both leak things and then this and then

1270
01:31:04,440 --> 01:31:09,159
launch and like I'm you know I'm not

1271
01:31:07,440 --> 01:31:14,719
accusing them of actually doing that because that's not good that's collusion

1272
01:31:11,440 --> 01:31:16,080
or whatever it is but uh yeah I just you

1273
01:31:14,719 --> 01:31:20,480
you have like that image in your head when these things it's like when you

1274
01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:28,119
know AMD and Intel launch CPU platforms at like the same time or AMD and NVIDIA

1275
01:31:23,639 --> 01:31:31,080
launch new gpus at like the same time so

1276
01:31:28,119 --> 01:31:34,639
yeah uh what are some useful networking programs you

1277
01:31:32,360 --> 01:31:40,280
suggest um what what are you trying to do man Windows 8 yeah what are you

1278
01:31:37,119 --> 01:31:42,760
trying to do Post in the networking form

1279
01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:48,400
yeah in linch tips.com bened marking ideas epic got it all of my yes got it

1280
01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:52,600
okay put it two different videos probably not uh h110 coming out coming

1281
01:31:51,719 --> 01:31:59,080
very soon um it's different than the h100 because

1282
01:31:56,679 --> 01:32:02,840
it's more bigger what do I think about WD keyboards I think they're supposed to

1283
01:32:01,159 --> 01:32:05,880
be pretty good never had my hands on one personally I've also not personally used

1284
01:32:04,639 --> 01:32:11,600
one and also heard they're pretty good what are the best speakers for games and music for computer speakers just grab

1285
01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:16,679
some SP 2500s and be done with it have you tried I also like the the clips Pro

1286
01:32:14,119 --> 01:32:22,119
media yeah but that's the promedia 2.1 is nothing like

1287
01:32:19,679 --> 01:32:27,080
the promedia 5.1 Ultra was though yeah it has a weak sub compared to the SP

1288
01:32:24,480 --> 01:32:33,199
2500s okay I'd love to see the methodology awesome come on to Australia

1289
01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:36,040
no too hot 48 degrees CS that's

1290
01:32:33,199 --> 01:32:41,360
ridiculous is that even right no is it right I hope not yeah it's like

1291
01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:45,480
all desert down there basically isn't it and it's the opposite season Sim City

1292
01:32:43,320 --> 01:32:51,520
beta is awesome EA didn't kill that yet all right I heard I've heard opposite

1293
01:32:48,639 --> 01:32:56,239
really uh on Reddit there's a Sim City uh Reddit and people are freaking out

1294
01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:58,520
absolutely freaking out what's the keybo I haven't played it so I have no idea so

1295
01:32:57,480 --> 01:33:03,880
I'm not going against you I'm just saying I've heard opposite I think someone asks this every live stream what

1296
01:33:02,119 --> 01:33:09,520
is the keyboard I use on the live stream it is an AO KB 178

1297
01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:14,800
RT some games are not meant to be played with a controller yeah of course

1298
01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:18,960
not yeah uh would you recommend an fx8350 if you can leverage the course

1299
01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:24,560
okay apparently the leaked Xbox specs were faked all right I don't know man to

1300
01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:28,639
Washington how far from the border is ex uh depends where you are in Washington

1301
01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:32,840
Washington's a big state all right I think we're pretty much done for the

1302
01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:37,119
night good night everybody and thank you for tuning into the live stream and

1303
01:33:34,679 --> 01:33:44,360
don't forget to tune in to live streams featuring

1304
01:33:41,239 --> 01:33:47,560
me and you and me yeah you're here too

1305
01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:49,199
yeah you're fired apparently that joke

1306
01:33:47,560 --> 01:33:54,440
is apparently that joke is old now someone went like crazy defending me on

1307
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:59,199
the Forum really I don't was like thanks bro didn't actually say anything but he

1308
01:33:56,639 --> 01:34:02,760
was like no stop you guys are jerks and I was like that's kind of cool I

1309
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:07,440
appreciate it cool but they must know you're not actually fired yeah or are

1310
01:34:05,639 --> 01:34:12,199
you but no like it's I think it's not you that he's he was getting after it's

1311
01:34:10,679 --> 01:34:17,880
the crazy amount of threads where people say slick is fired on the Forum well you

1312
01:34:15,480 --> 01:34:22,000
were fired a crazy number of times so it makes sense I heard someone was trying

1313
01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:26,199
to actually keep track of how many times been fired I haven't seen that yeah no I

1314
01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:30,360
think it I I thought I saw like a tweet about it or something we got to try and

1315
01:34:27,800 --> 01:34:34,520
add offscreen fires then off screen that's gonna be tough because you get

1316
01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:37,360
fired a lot yeah he gets fired a lot I

1317
01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:42,440
mean today oh no yesterday that thing where you ran all of the benchmarks and

1318
01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:46,159
overclocked all okay okay so yeah embarrass okay if he's going to tell the

1319
01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:51,360
story about how I threw a USB drive at the server then I'm going to tell this

1320
01:34:47,800 --> 01:34:54,440
story so slick I would like for you to

1321
01:34:51,360 --> 01:34:59,560
actually tell me how many times you

1322
01:34:54,440 --> 01:35:03,280
think I told you to use a cloud storage

1323
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:05,320
solution to log his maximum overclocks

1324
01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:07,760
on this entire table full of video cards and everything else I've ever

1325
01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:13,760
overclocked while working with you behind us okay that as well as his

1326
01:35:11,280 --> 01:35:18,119
results for the Far Cry 3 benchmarks he ran for six different cards so this was

1327
01:35:16,320 --> 01:35:22,800
probably like four or five hours of testing finding maximum overclocks using

1328
01:35:20,440 --> 01:35:28,080
crisis which is a good stress tester and then um and then running benchmarks on

1329
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:29,800
Far Cry 3 to uh and then making graphs

1330
01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:36,000
making nice tidy graphs that we can show you guys in a video that we're going to release soon how many times did I tell

1331
01:35:33,199 --> 01:35:42,080
you to save the files to cloud storage that day alone at least six okay and uh

1332
01:35:39,760 --> 01:35:47,960
how many cloud storage uh Services did you save them

1333
01:35:43,280 --> 01:35:51,080
to I saved part of them to one okay and

1334
01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:53,639
uh what were you saving them to Google

1335
01:35:51,080 --> 01:35:57,639
Drive no no what oh oh oh oh what they they were all on was a patriot flash

1336
01:35:55,320 --> 01:36:01,040
drive okay what happened to that flash drive I was trying to preper video for

1337
01:35:59,440 --> 01:36:04,199
True Crypt didn't realize it was still in the machine and went to encrypt a

1338
01:36:02,520 --> 01:36:12,360
flash drive encrypted the wrong one and erased everything so so I go I go so I

1339
01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:15,320
go to his workstation and I'm like slick

1340
01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:21,159
what are you doing are you finished the benchmarks he's like yeah I'm finished

1341
01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:26,239
but it's all gone and he's trying to use a data recovery program to get the files

1342
01:36:24,119 --> 01:36:30,639
back did that work how hard did I rub that you know I

1343
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:35,040
don't think I actually fired you cuz I think I basically said something like

1344
01:36:32,520 --> 01:36:38,159
that's your training budget he came over to where I was and I'm sitting there and

1345
01:36:36,480 --> 01:36:42,520
like never put the hood up on my sweater he's like he's like B okay if he if he

1346
01:36:40,080 --> 01:36:48,600
was if he it was warmer he'd have been sweating like how hard he was working at

1347
01:36:46,159 --> 01:36:54,239
this oh I ended up running like three different data recovery programs and

1348
01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:56,440
like oh I was not happy that was was not

1349
01:36:54,239 --> 01:36:59,840
a good time so I was just like what did we

1350
01:36:57,440 --> 01:37:03,840
learn okay and the funny thing too is I'm writing him about it now but the

1351
01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:08,840
only reason that I gave him such a hard time about this was that I have done it

1352
01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:14,440
over and over and over again there's a reason that I harp on redundancy and

1353
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:19,000
there's a reason that I harp on backups there's a reason I have a raid six

1354
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:23,320
server in my house and an offsite raid five that it backs up to every night

1355
01:37:21,239 --> 01:37:26,719
because I hate losing data and I've lost a a lot of it the kicker that you don't

1356
01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:31,040
know about is that drive I have been backing up because I knew it was

1357
01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:36,600
important so I had everything from before the Far Cry 3 benchmarks on it

1358
01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:42,880
and I had all of that I had just finished moving to drive so everything

1359
01:37:39,719 --> 01:37:45,320
that didn't matter was was backed up to

1360
01:37:42,880 --> 01:37:49,840
my personal PC and backed up to Google Drive and everything that currently

1361
01:37:47,040 --> 01:37:57,080
mattered disappeared so so guys there's the lesson for you cloud is good uh

1362
01:37:53,679 --> 01:37:59,239
backups in general are good um

1363
01:37:57,080 --> 01:38:02,800
accidentally formatting things is bad not good so I you know what I think I

1364
01:38:01,480 --> 01:38:06,880
said earlier that I'd never lost my music library that's not true I did lose

1365
01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:12,520
it once I lost my music library and my entire photo library once when I was

1366
01:38:09,199 --> 01:38:15,480
like I must have been grade 10 so when I

1367
01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:20,960
was about 15 16 and what happened it was an accidental format and I found a tool

1368
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:24,599
that recovered some of my pictures my problem is it wasn't a hard disk it was

1369
01:38:22,639 --> 01:38:28,639
a flash drive even then like accidentally formatting a volume though

1370
01:38:26,280 --> 01:38:33,119
oh yeah so that was actually the way that I've lost data in the past has

1371
01:38:30,440 --> 01:38:37,239
never been physical drive failure because I've always used raid I've had

1372
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:41,000
one physical drive failure um this was when I was first I think I've told you

1373
01:38:38,560 --> 01:38:46,840
about this first moving to my mineral L PC in the middle of building my mineral

1374
01:38:43,159 --> 01:38:48,320
o PC and okay um like the hard drive in

1375
01:38:46,840 --> 01:38:53,760
my mineral L PC sorry there's a piece of hair right in front of my face

1376
01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:57,159
it's is it gone I can't see any anymore

1377
01:38:53,760 --> 01:39:00,360
good enough for me go away the hard

1378
01:38:57,159 --> 01:39:03,080
drive for my mineral PC sat in like the

1379
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:07,520
the lid on top so the very last thing you do when you're done building my

1380
01:39:05,239 --> 01:39:12,679
design is you put it on the top plug SATA plug SATA top it you're done that's

1381
01:39:10,719 --> 01:39:17,119
the last thing in the whole build so I'm done my hands are covered in mineral oil

1382
01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:21,840
and I go pick up my hard drive you see what's happening I'm

1383
01:39:20,199 --> 01:39:25,040
really tired this build has taken me like 12 hours it's like three or four in

1384
01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:31,119
the morning because I didn't realize how long it would take I pick up the drive and like all my stuff that I was using

1385
01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:34,520
was on one table and the machines on the other table so I pick up my drive and I

1386
01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:38,880
go to walk over to the other table it's just like right out of my hands because

1387
01:39:36,639 --> 01:39:43,800
mineral oil is so slippery and the side of a hard drive is just like metal like

1388
01:39:41,639 --> 01:39:48,639
very smooth metal so I plug it up just and I see it just hit the ground and I

1389
01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:53,679
didn't even pick it up I was just like nope I have a new drive here I'm just

1390
01:39:50,920 --> 01:39:57,080
going to put that in game over man came over like I know that's dead there's no

1391
01:39:55,679 --> 01:40:01,159
point I ended up plugging it in like a month later it's

1392
01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:07,360
like like okay I think the only hard drive that I ever killed by dropping it

1393
01:40:03,639 --> 01:40:09,760
was my old one tbte external 2 and 1 12

1394
01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:14,719
in drive that had that awesome custom form factor like super thick 2 and 1/2

1395
01:40:12,480 --> 01:40:18,880
inch Drive I don't even remember where I got that thing from but it was a beast

1396
01:40:16,679 --> 01:40:22,840
it was some custom Seagate thing that I don't think many people bought them

1397
01:40:20,560 --> 01:40:28,480
because it was really uncommon and I was moving a test bench and I used to keep

1398
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:33,400
the drive not on like a grippy pad the way that I do now so it was just on top

1399
01:40:30,360 --> 01:40:36,920
of an optical drive oh slid out

1400
01:40:33,400 --> 01:40:38,880
disconnected the wire hit the ground and

1401
01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:43,239
well the rest is history but it only had like games on it it was like Steam games

1402
01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:50,679
so I was still annoyed because it had a lot of like Steam games and I was in the

1403
01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:53,480
middle of bench marking the 6870 video

1404
01:40:50,679 --> 01:40:56,199
the one on the wall of Legend and so that video oh that was one of my most

1405
01:40:54,719 --> 01:41:01,440
frustrating videos ever anyway you know what we run over time good night everybody and we'll see you next week
