WEBVTT 00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:06.520 and we're live good evening everybody it 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 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 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 00:00:19.080 --> 00:00:26.080 slick and hire him so that or her could 00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:28.560 be a girl I heard there's a girl on the 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 00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:37.440 lot of girls on that internet tons of them or at least 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 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 00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:51.320 actually very late at night we had a very long day today we had once again 00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:56.399 you know what for those of you who complain that it's unprofessional of us 00:00:53.199 --> 00:00:58.199 to eat on the live stream um you know 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 00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:10.920 that cool with what time like what time did we leave today this morning like 00:01:06.360 --> 00:01:13.119 leave 2:45 nine yeah okay so so we got 00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:16.960 started around 9: today and then we actually start that's that's pretty 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 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 00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:29.439 guys do the math and then there's uh 00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:32.159 work afterwards because I have to then watch the live 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 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 00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:48.680 because it results in like a 13 14 hour 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 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 00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:06.439 busy live stream for you one of the biggest the news this week was that um 00:02:03.360 --> 00:02:08.119 NVIDIA has started well not they've 00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:14.080 started they are not talking about it at all but the internets are starting to 00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:15.400 talk about a replacement for the GTX 680 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 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 00:02:23.920 --> 00:02:29.519 that a supercomputer that deployed like a bajillion Teslas not that long ago I 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 00:02:31.480 --> 00:02:38.959 used for supercomputing it's used for um things like cloud gaming so if you're 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 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 00:02:43.239 --> 00:02:48.080 gaming but the idea is that it's all rendered and everything's pre-processed 00:02:46.440 --> 00:02:53.440 in the cloud and then streamed down to your computer okay so tell me this about 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:56.239 cloud gaming based on oh right you 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 00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:05.159 had forgotten because I was I was pretty down on cloud gaming 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 00:03:07.920 --> 00:03:13.680 based on what I saw from Project 00:03:10.959 --> 00:03:16.640 Shield it could work is that not local streaming though yes it's local 00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:21.840 streaming but it's local streaming over Wireless which can't be that much better 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:24.599 than remote streaming over copper right 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:28.319 or better yet fiber yeah so when fiber hits cloud gaming is going to make your 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:34.120 gaming computer totally irrelevant forever it will never matter ever 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 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 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 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 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 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 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:07.360 I have a P2 233 some Edo RAM or it might 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 00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:21.079 like ATA 33 hard drive um like an a64 00:04:16.400 --> 00:04:23.560 sound card Isa Isa a64 sound card and my 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 00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:32.759 got an at power supply to go with it 00:04:31.440 --> 00:04:36.160 and then I'm going to try like Frankenstein it into this balling 00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:42.240 awesome looking machine so I can have a dedicated box just to play TIE fighter 00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:45.479 so I've got my old thrustmaster Top Gun 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:47.759 joystick I saw that too seral seral 00:04:45.479 --> 00:04:50.160 joystick epic there's one guy on the forums you got to check out his build 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 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 00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:04.360 mhm yeah and that's just so awesome awesome so awesome wasn't he like even 00:05:02.400 --> 00:05:07.280 running like old benchmarks on it he was running old benchmarks and trying to 00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:11.639 prove his platform and like showing off him playing games and like really really 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 00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:20.919 would just send like like he said his two processors just came like taped 00:05:17.919 --> 00:05:23.039 together two processors yeah so it's 00:05:20.919 --> 00:05:28.360 like a dual CPU what like oh it must be like penium super super uber highend 00:05:25.400 --> 00:05:32.479 yeah I think it might be pum I actually acquired back before I don't remember 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:39.680 what it is before dual cores were affordable um I had the I I I acquired 00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:42.319 two Pentium 31 gigahertz and I think I 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 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:51.880 upgraded my my in-laws machine a number of years ago like this was this must 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:53.680 have been like six years ago because um 00:05:51.880 --> 00:05:59.680 and you know what it actually kind of rocked running a modern OS like Windows 00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:00.880 XP with dual processors even though 00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:06.360 though they were underpowered for something like an office machine is way 00:06:03.919 --> 00:06:11.880 better than a single core one of one of my most prized possessions within my 00:06:08.840 --> 00:06:13.599 like the the the like room in your house 00:06:11.880 --> 00:06:16.520 where you put all your Tech crap one of my most prized possessions in there 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 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:26.080 won't die is a one gig dim of uh ddr1 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:30.560 seriously yeah that's freaking awesome those were expensive those were like 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 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 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 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 00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:52.759 with dear life and every single time that I need to make like an old school 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 00:06:56.440 --> 00:07:02.240 problems instantly I can stack it with like 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:06.960 however many other sticks I want it's still usually more than half of the RAM 00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:09.160 in the whole system it's just so epic 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 00:07:12.520 --> 00:07:20.199 probably my thrustmaster top gun so that joystick is is like legendary for 00:07:17.960 --> 00:07:27.400 me other than that you know I wish I wish I still had 00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:30.199 my monitor my CRT monitor so for those 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 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 00:07:38.919 --> 00:07:44.680 competing technology so aperture Grill was one of those things where you know 00:07:43.080 --> 00:07:48.319 there was a lot of debate on the forums should I get an aperture Grill monitor 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:52.360 should I not because the aperture Grill causes two faint lines at about the top 00:07:50.960 --> 00:07:58.319 third of the screen and the bottom third of the screen that allow the picture to 00:07:55.599 --> 00:08:02.479 be much more square and much more clear for the flat screen 00:08:00.080 --> 00:08:06.159 but actually caus those lines to be visible to you so people are like who I 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 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:15.520 three years so I took the plunge I got myself an aperture girl monitor I loved 00:08:13.400 --> 00:08:20.440 that monitor one of my siblings took a quarter to 00:08:17.919 --> 00:08:24.479 it never told me how it died the anti- glare Coating in the middle there was 00:08:22.280 --> 00:08:29.599 nothing wrong with the monitor so I got a replacement from view Sonic it was 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:33.599 terrible it was like a refurbished this was when CRTs were not even really in 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:39.159 production anymore they got me the replacement when I was just like this is 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:42.080 unusable so I pwned it off for cheap and 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 00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:56.839 begrudgingly to LCD and I moved to uh an 00:08:48.760 --> 00:08:58.720 Acer 1916 W that 1440 by uh 900 was it I 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 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 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:17.240 really small and I don't have a lot of desktop room like slow clap 00:09:13.160 --> 00:09:19.480 myself so I blew like $ 6700 on a 2405 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 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 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 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 00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:41.000 screen is not a thing okay I'm G let 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 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 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:56.120 a lightboard like one of those Billboards that that's an LED monitor 00:09:54.120 --> 00:10:01.519 trust me you don't want one of those or an OLED monitor would could technically 00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:04.600 yeah yeah cuz that's an organic light so that would technically be an LED monitor 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 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 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 00:10:17.920 --> 00:10:22.880 was one on display at CES that was transpar that was transparent put it as 00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:27.320 your windshield yeah that would be illegal I'm sure in any country anywhere 00:10:25.640 --> 00:10:30.560 why what do you mean why because you could overlay like your speed and 00:10:28.760 --> 00:10:34.560 everything or you could overlay a television show what if you could like 00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:38.320 software mod it so that it forces to not show things on certain parts of the 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 00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.279 car that had a software limited screen 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 00:10:47.680 --> 00:10:54.880 that topic but that would be really 00:10:51.160 --> 00:10:57.160 cool yay I want a screen right so LED 00:10:54.880 --> 00:11:01.320 screens and LCD screens are not different things so an LCD is a liquid 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 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:10.320 front and then uh ccfl or um fluorescent 00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:16.040 those are the same thing okay so fluorescent lights go behind it and 00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:18.880 shine through the LCD panel or you can 00:11:16.040 --> 00:11:23.399 have an array of LED lights that shine through the LCD panel so that's the 00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:28.240 difference so anyway it's an older fluorescent LCD monitor and what happens 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 00:11:29.959 --> 00:11:35.560 but you can replace the cathod but it's probably not worth it at this point 00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:41.160 actually maybe it's probably really expensive 24 in VA panel though was a 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 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 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 00:11:51.160 --> 00:11:57.120 LC you can get an LED backl LCD for like 00:11:54.760 --> 00:12:00.399 nothing now and the advantage of LED is that they don't fade over time they 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:07.600 don't yellow over time and they last for a really long time which brings us 00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:11.279 gracefully back to Tesla and NVIDIA's 00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:14.360 upcoming replacement GeForce card um so 00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:16.880 Tesla is used for uh compute 00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:22.720 applications for cloud gaming and they want to take failed Tesla course which 00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:25.360 doesn't mean failed so it's binning 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:31.600 process yes the binning process is the key here so you can have a Tesla spec 00:12:28.560 --> 00:12:33.800 that goes whatever gigahertz whatever 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:37.279 memory bus uh whatever okay so that's the only thing 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 00:12:39.880 --> 00:12:44.920 that because for applications like compute where they're installing these 00:12:42.959 --> 00:12:50.000 in blades they're going to have very strict power and heat guidelines so 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 00:12:53.079 --> 00:13:00.079 mofo it's totally unusable something can 00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:00.079 be hot like a mofo 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:07.959 I'm hot like a mofa actually I'm really cold right now 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 00:13:11.560 --> 00:13:17.839 bet it's cold now yes the potatoes are 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:19.199 like solid but anyways um uh so the 00:13:17.839 --> 00:13:23.279 binning process why don't you get into the binning process while I it's not 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 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 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 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 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 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 00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:52.880 ones from the ntx studio here oh that would H ridiculous so the other light 00:13:50.560 --> 00:13:58.759 main light technology is incandescent which means basically 00:13:55.680 --> 00:14:02.120 fire what it means um so that's where 00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:04.839 something is just glowing so white hot 00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:10.959 and so bright that it throws light all over everything around it those are hot 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.759 compared to ccfls which are hot compared 00:14:10.959 --> 00:14:17.480 to L LEDs are you just checking to make sure the audio is actually good because 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 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 00:14:23.959 --> 00:14:29.079 and what games and uh groups were 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 00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:38.160 struggling to actually manage to finish sounds 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 00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:45.480 to be failed Tesla cores which doesn't mean they're failed it could mean that 00:14:43.920 --> 00:14:49.240 they run at a slightly higher power envelope which is fine when you can 00:14:47.199 --> 00:14:54.720 throw a big old dual slot cooler on it in like a nice well ventilated gaming 00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:57.440 chassis so no big deal and we're 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 00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:04.639 of the leaked specs that have been seen and based on what we know actually not 00:15:02.839 --> 00:15:10.240 even leaked specs based on what we know about Tesla specs this thing should be a 00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:17.720 huge generational boost in performance so this was this core was 00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:20.279 ready back when NVIDIA was launching GTX 00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:23.959 680 but for whatever reason whether it was due to the competitive landscape 00:15:21.920 --> 00:15:28.560 whether it was due to the yields on this gigantic die it's very expensive to 00:15:26.560 --> 00:15:33.920 manufacture for a number of reasons so whether it was due to the yields whether 00:15:29.839 --> 00:15:35.079 it was due to just it being very 00:15:33.920 --> 00:15:40.040 difficult there being very few production lines that could actually manufacture this monstrosity they held 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 00:15:41.959 --> 00:15:47.120 only recently made it to cuadro as well is that 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 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:55.399 ago though correct me if I'm wrong though guys um so I'm really excited 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 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 00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:06.319 compare to sort of a better single card you know if you go dual GPU okay 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 00:16:10.959 --> 00:16:18.399 more General like if if there's a game that runs perfectly on all 00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:21.720 configurations except one you know all single cards run I pretty much guarantee 00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:24.639 you it's all the single card configs that work and some dual card 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:28.959 configuration that doesn't work because it's a lot more complicated to code the 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:34.079 drivers for it so really excited about another truly high-end GPU that's using 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 00:16:36.560 --> 00:16:41.959 for well for for everyone um are you 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 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 00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:55.160 Twitter and 121 new 00:16:53.079 --> 00:16:59.880 interactions uh my speakers make some kind of strange high pitch pop every few 00:16:56.959 --> 00:17:02.480 minutes any idea uh could be your phone if your phone is sitting near your 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 00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:11.880 whenever it's receiving or sending cellular data uh yes we will be covering 00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:16.679 the THQ bankruptcy soon that's actually what Slick's compiling his uh his 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 00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:29.120 have so funny that one uh I might have one in my pocket you 00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:35.480 can reach in and get it if you want no I got nothing that's a 00:17:30.520 --> 00:17:36.799 shame so close and yet so far do we 00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:42.280 really not have a single you know all the technology in the world and uh we 00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:49.799 don't have a single pen it's cool you can go do problem 00:17:45.320 --> 00:17:53.280 you're good okay I'm doing Twitter Q&A 00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:56.880 then okay more Twitter Q&A would you 00:17:53.280 --> 00:17:59.600 recommend the EVGA sr2 or SRX for 00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:04.919 hardcore editing SL mid highish end gaming on the side actually yes that is 00:18:02.120 --> 00:18:12.080 one of the only usage scenarios where I would genuinely recommend an SRX because 00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:19.799 it is not useful for gaming mark my words slower for gaming than a than an 00:18:16.320 --> 00:18:21.799 LG 1155 platform with a 3570k on it 00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:26.080 especially if you're overclocking so there's that but if you can take 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 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 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 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 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 00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:50.039 and the 900 are completely different things much the same way that the 300 00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:54.480 are and the 300 are different things although like where did Corsair get this 00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:59.799 naming strategy from they both have 600s although the corsairs has a T and anex 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 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 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 00:19:13.600 --> 00:19:20.840 iterate the 800d and the 900d a couple more times they'll have an 1100 as 00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:24.200 well not really not sure where I was going with this cloud gaming will never 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 00:19:27.280 --> 00:19:33.799 wrong uh cloud gaming will take over and there will be nothing left of Enthusiast 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 00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:41.760 like saying Super Nintendo is never going to die because there are 00:19:39.840 --> 00:19:46.080 enthusiasts and there will always it'll always be there and you're right in fact 00:19:44.360 --> 00:19:49.640 I think the most recent Super Nintendo game was made only a couple years ago or 00:19:48.159 --> 00:19:53.840 something like that like yeah there's still guys coding games for Super 00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:57.360 Nintendo and finding ways to like flash the ROMs onto cartridges and play them 00:19:55.840 --> 00:20:01.200 and like you said with Indie Games there always be like Kickstarter they're going 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:04.640 to release and then stretch goals will always be like local platform local 00:20:03.080 --> 00:20:09.600 platform or right now it's like Linux Linux Linux there will always be like 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 00:20:13.760 --> 00:20:19.760 going away mainstream mark my words 10 00:20:16.840 --> 00:20:23.320 years from now you probably won't have any good reason to still have a 00:20:21.679 --> 00:20:28.120 dedicated gaming computer uh but there come on guys okay 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 00:20:30.320 --> 00:20:35.200 to be lots of stuff to Tinker with like 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 00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:43.080 mean that's like saying you know uh oh 00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:47.440 you know the uh the desktop PC is never never going away because phones will 00:20:45.280 --> 00:20:51.679 never take over ra ra ra the reality of it is we all have awesome smartphones 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 00:20:54.679 --> 00:21:01.799 are coexisting that's okay so your local platform that you play your indie games 00:20:58.840 --> 00:21:06.240 or whatever will coexist but you will have some kind of a cloud service maybe 00:21:03.919 --> 00:21:10.600 10 years is optimistic especially for certain countries like I think in places 00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:14.799 like Japan where infrastructure costs nothing in places like Europe where the 00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:17.880 population density is so high compared to how how long did you say you think 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 00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:25.279 think it'll take longer than that yeah no exactly 100% sure think yeah it'll 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 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 00:21:31.320 --> 00:21:37.600 will be smooth well smoothish nothing's ever smooth nothing ever works that's 00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:45.720 rule number one of tech tips thank you for joining us live Beno Beno Beno 00:21:40.919 --> 00:21:48.679 please boost to 1080p up from 900p I'm 00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:56.240 tired of see seeing people ask what it is please boost to 1080p plus up from 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 00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:05.600 900p um I don't think I can check right now 00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:07.640 though resolution oh what the heck we're 00:22:05.600 --> 00:22:11.320 streaming in600 by 900 why are we stream okay sorry guys 00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:16.039 there's nothing I can really do right now about that the profile must 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 00:22:19.200 --> 00:22:26.600 Twitch account to test some things when he was streaming some game last night 00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:29.559 and his monitor is 1680 by 1050 which 00:22:26.600 --> 00:22:34.360 because you know X splits awesome and doesn't acknowledge 1600 by or 16x 10 00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:38.559 resolutions which I understand I understand it's it's a streaming 00:22:35.760 --> 00:22:41.600 platform for I'm getting new monitors slick says he's getting new monitors I 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 00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:53.120 have to deal with uh we'll have to deal with that another 00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:55.880 time um Australia Day cool watching from 00:22:53.120 --> 00:22:59.240 the UK awesome when will The Sweep stakes be over you know what I haven't 00:22:57.240 --> 00:23:04.559 talked to Lou from unbox there anytime soon 00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:07.919 um or anytime recently so hopefully we'll be doing the gaming peripherals 00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:13.159 giveaway very very soon I have them sitting in my waiting to ship stuff out 00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:18.480 pile over there so it's uh we'll ship it out as soon as as soon as we uh we get 00:23:15.919 --> 00:23:24.520 together and uh and do like a random.org choice for a winner so that's good uh 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 00:23:26.840 --> 00:23:34.000 what I recommend for new reviewers um I think pretty much everything I have to 00:23:30.679 --> 00:23:36.000 say is is in that post um if you if you 00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:39.360 go on the liniste tips.com Forum and search for my story or something like 00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:42.080 that basically I just posted I've talked about it on the live streams before so 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 00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:54.880 posted sort of how I got into making YouTube videos and how my career has has 00:23:50.159 --> 00:23:57.600 started and sort of continued to evolve 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 00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:05.320 Twitter Q&A things talk about the diaper 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 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 00:24:11.120 --> 00:24:17.880 have any shame have you heard about the 00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:19.880 8350 um versus 3570 disagreement going 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 00:24:21.799 --> 00:24:28.080 videos saying that the 8350 beats 3570k 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 00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:35.880 haven't actually watched his videos um but I think it's like certain I think 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 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 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 00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:56.880 environment where um where you actually have a lot 00:24:54.919 --> 00:25:01.919 of multi-threaded junk going on in the background like if you have like three 00:25:00.159 --> 00:25:05.559 people Skyping in and you have Windows of them here here and here and then 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 00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:14.919 CPU intensive because it's encoding multiple streams then something like an 00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:17.159 8350 could pull ahead of a 3570k because 00:25:14.919 --> 00:25:23.399 all them cores yeah because all them cores but uh in sort of the well in 00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:26.640 situations that most people would encounter that's not really going to 00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:30.799 happen like we just said though we haven't seen his video you should have 00:25:28.159 --> 00:25:34.480 yeah hi Winnipeg sorry hate sucks to be you man um you should have Skype callers 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 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 00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:46.159 probably won't happen where we'll take actual live viewers as callers because 00:25:44.520 --> 00:25:50.279 Twitter is a much more manageable way for us to interact with the 00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:53.559 audience uh talk about Intel said they'll stop making desktop CPUs after 00:25:52.080 --> 00:25:59.000 let's see let's see what they say although actually okay before we do that 00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:00.640 I have another topic Intel is oh my 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 00:26:04.039 --> 00:26:10.600 with let's start with Intel uh is not going to make desktop boards anymore 00:26:08.360 --> 00:26:14.120 yeah heard about that y they were never that huge in the motherboard Market 00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:19.960 though in some markets it was different was it yes in markets where CU Intel's 00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:24.919 strength more than well okay they technology so technology here you know 00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:27.320 probably branding here and then strength number three I guess if I had to pick 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 00:26:31.080 --> 00:26:38.960 eight arms sticking out of them they'd all be going like this right um but 00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:43.000 their distribution Network yeah because 00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:46.200 you can buy an Intel CPU anywhere 00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:50.360 anywhere yeah so especially years ago 00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:52.720 when ASUS or DFI or biostar or whatever 00:26:50.360 --> 00:26:56.360 DFI and biostar yeah or like markets where ASUS didn't have a lot of 00:26:54.159 --> 00:27:00.039 penetration very lowcost markets Intel was actually seen as a premium brand 00:26:58.640 --> 00:27:06.440 because compared to the other garbage you could buy Intel was reliable it 00:27:03.360 --> 00:27:08.559 would work every time and and that was 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 00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:16.799 motherboards but now that has uh that has all change so what does this mean 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 00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:27.039 I wonder if they'll be quite so strict on uh the specification for 00:27:25.360 --> 00:27:30.159 everything other than that I don't really think it's that big of a deal 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 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 00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:44.840 motherboards but that's not the point what does it mean for the market we've 00:27:41.760 --> 00:27:46.600 Consolidated down from okay here I'm 00:27:44.840 --> 00:27:51.559 going to name all the motherboard makers I can think of from when I was an 00:27:48.360 --> 00:27:52.960 Enthusiast at the very beginning okay so 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 00:27:56.039 --> 00:28:03.080 website and buy it so 00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:05.360 ECS biostar 00:28:03.080 --> 00:28:10.279 foxcon soultech MSI ASUS 00:28:08.760 --> 00:28:16.200 Gigabyte EVGA what are some of the other crazy 00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:17.880 chain Tech chain 00:28:16.200 --> 00:28:22.679 DFI um what else was there probably missing 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 00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.120 is another one 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 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 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 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 00:28:53.399 --> 00:29:00.000 happened with everything though every single piece consolidation so 13 I name 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 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 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 00:29:12.120 --> 00:29:18.000 course yeah azrock so lots of guys so 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 00:29:22.320 --> 00:29:28.200 number three and then ASRock which who 00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:32.720 may or may not there was a rumor that ASUS is going to reacquire ASRock 00:29:30.159 --> 00:29:37.440 because that's asrock's origin so that would leave us with three Intel will be 00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:40.960 gone biostar and ECS are still out there but they're just making lowend stuff and 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 00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:49.559 some point and they'll just abandon making Standalone boards evg is still 00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:54.320 making evj is still making motherboards but I know that their volumes are not as 00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:58.399 high as someone like ASUS and the margin's not there because they have to 00:29:55.919 --> 00:30:02.600 get someone else to make it for them like whether it's foxcon or orus or 00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:07.600 Gigabyte or whoever else they evj is not a manufacturer of 00:30:05.159 --> 00:30:12.679 motherboards so that leaves us with what maybe six guys that are still active 00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:16.960 now I mean CH that's happened with everything though seriously there's 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 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 00:30:24.880 --> 00:30:30.760 although there might have been more uh look at gaming Studios looking at our 00:30:28.559 --> 00:30:36.240 next topic yeah gaming Studios that has happened like crazy look at the volume 00:30:33.360 --> 00:30:39.880 of just EA look at what they've like eaten and consumed and destroyed and 00:30:38.679 --> 00:30:44.480 left dead well they don't leave everything 00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:47.159 dead EA has good stuff the Sims is kind of 00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:54.720 awesome wasn't that originally their title yeah 00:30:49.720 --> 00:30:56.120 yeah no um NHL 2013 was that originally 00:30:54.720 --> 00:31:00.600 their title which almost didn't happen wasn't that originally their title 00:30:59.080 --> 00:31:03.039 who have they consumed that has like came out 00:31:08.679 --> 00:31:17.279 well because I think they were working on uh Mass Effect one when they acquired 00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:22.600 BioWare and I think they were working on Dragon Age one so those games were 00:31:20.080 --> 00:31:25.919 released more from just BioWare standpoint and then Dragon Age 2 came 00:31:24.639 --> 00:31:32.320 out I know you haven't played it but like I bought it was it bad 00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:34.120 oh hated that game L Dragon Age 1 did 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 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 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 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 00:31:49.360 --> 00:31:57.559 is getting to the next town and like finding all the weird random stuff like 00:31:55.320 --> 00:32:02.960 like the the chicken that you can throw down hole or whatever in Zelda or like 00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:06.000 or like or like the house that you go into in Final Fantasy 6 where the 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 00:32:09.279 --> 00:32:15.960 beginning of Skyrim you run up and hit it the whole town freaking goes crazy on 00:32:13.360 --> 00:32:20.360 you like like just awesome little things like that's so cool Mass Effect uh Mass 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 00:32:21.919 --> 00:32:28.679 Effect series at all let's not read anything cuz everyone hated Mass Effect 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 00:32:30.399 --> 00:32:37.039 played Mass Effect one both absolutely loved it awesome game loved that game it 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 00:32:40.480 --> 00:32:46.360 that's it they they put everything on 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 00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:54.000 key bindings to rebind things it's like oh yeah I rebind three moves onto one 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 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 00:32:59.159 --> 00:33:04.440 space bar it's like no use is e what are 00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:09.679 you doing use can be F or F or whatever like 00:33:08.159 --> 00:33:12.320 you can bind it to whatever you want right like could be 00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:18.360 you wow you know what I mean though yes 00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:21.880 like being able to keybind specific abilities is like kind of important and 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 00:33:23.559 --> 00:33:29.440 like proper PC games like Quake 3 okay 00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:35.039 awesome when got a widescreen monitor I was like okay go into the inii 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 00:33:37.120 --> 00:33:42.760 resolution done it doesn't matter how old and 00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:47.480 crappy it is if the game developer actually properly makes it customizable 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 00:33:50.840 --> 00:33:58.399 it's like built-in bench marking utilities how much work is it to record 00:33:54.760 --> 00:34:01.120 a stupid time demo 00:33:58.399 --> 00:34:07.240 come on like how much publicity does a game developer who produces a benchmark 00:34:04.120 --> 00:34:09.960 for their game get from everyone 00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:14.240 everywhere benchmarking their game like what was that um what was that game 00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:20.960 where the Benchmark was like the big monster that comes out and like does 00:34:17.879 --> 00:34:22.760 stuff uh I'm not going to be able to 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 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 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 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 00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:44.800 see it on every review site for every video card and if your benchmark it 00:34:43.040 --> 00:34:47.960 looks if your benchmark looks good enough which it should everyone's going 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 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 00:34:55.040 --> 00:35:01.560 acquisition what's up we should talk about benchmarking view if people want 00:34:58.079 --> 00:35:02.839 it okay Right Far Cry 3 okay um let's 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 00:35:07.000 --> 00:35:14.720 any that uh that EA hasn't 00:35:11.560 --> 00:35:16.280 wrecked uh here we go yeah same 00:35:14.720 --> 00:35:22.720 experience as slick playing Mass Effect 2 he kept playing though because uh GIS 00:35:18.720 --> 00:35:23.800 was sexy GIS is pretty awesome Slick's 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 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 00:35:30.839 --> 00:35:39.200 flow Logan attributed two unreleased Windows 7 updates for the reason why 00:35:35.359 --> 00:35:40.640 8350 pulled ahead no uh I think you 00:35:39.200 --> 00:35:44.800 should check out Singularity computers he's a custom builder okay uh what about 00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:48.040 Texas Instruments no they were never in motherboards should try Firefall it's 00:35:46.839 --> 00:35:53.880 free for two days um wish I had time I'm going to go 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 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 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 00:36:05.720 --> 00:36:11.040 Group y those guys are really good they know what they're doing send them to 00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:19.560 linest Tech tips.com we are streaming on the xa1 hi from the UK hello hey 00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:22.640 hello uh agreed exploration for the win 00:36:19.560 --> 00:36:24.839 yes sir or ma'am Zachary probably not a 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 00:36:27.040 --> 00:36:33.000 half the fun yeah uh IBM probably manufactured their own boards at some 00:36:30.720 --> 00:36:37.079 point but I was talking branded and he's talking when he was into it very 00:36:34.800 --> 00:36:41.440 specifically like but like branded in a retail box marked with the brand uh 00:36:39.480 --> 00:36:45.520 Zotac and foxcon that's right Zotac does still make motherboards although it's 00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:49.920 very Niche like very Niche I mean I was also wasn't talking about super micro 00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:54.720 and tyan either so Zotac basically just ITX 00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:56.000 boards um when my comp sleeps it 00:36:54.720 --> 00:36:59.480 undetect the storage drive I have to restart to be able to play games we're 00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:02.359 having a similar issue with our benchmarking platform which is using an 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 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 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 00:37:13.960 --> 00:37:21.040 affect the balance and could even affect the shape slightly paint is not um 00:37:18.680 --> 00:37:24.760 insignificant it does have thickness if I was really going to go all out and I 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 00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:32.160 out some way to to dye the plastic because that's probably a better way to 00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:39.000 do it without adding any weight or any bulk or any uh or affecting the balance 00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:40.480 because balance is everything with a 00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:44.079 high quality fan have you ever actually done that though no or heard of anyone 00:37:42.319 --> 00:37:47.720 doing that no because how would you dye it properly how' you dye plastic you'd 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 00:37:49.839 --> 00:37:55.520 some kind of a waterproof thing that would be hard that' be really cool but 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 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 00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:06.240 that so green C70 it looks really military it looks really cool throw a 00:38:04.920 --> 00:38:11.520 saber-tooth in there and it just looks awesome our live stream setup is a Canon 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 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 00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:27.880 gigs of RAM as our as our streaming computer running on Onboard video 00:38:25.040 --> 00:38:33.160 watching from sa where's SA South Arizona I think there's probably 00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:37.839 more than one San Antonio and we have fans from around the world South Africa 00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:43.160 South America shout out to all of those places hello everybody 00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:48.760 um uh there there will probably be a new Chips side it'll probably be like 00:38:45.599 --> 00:38:51.599 Z87 or something I know I'm going out on 00:38:48.760 --> 00:38:57.839 a limb there whoa lus calm down that was creative 00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:04.599 also in the snow yes snow shout out to 00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:06.760 you too editing dual aha dual well 00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:11.560 neither editing you don't need either of those things you need one Cuda capable 00:39:09.160 --> 00:39:18.480 core and preferably a Quadro if you're using Premier Pro PC chips ah yes PC 00:39:15.680 --> 00:39:22.839 chips there you go that's another one motherboard manufacturer low end stuff 00:39:21.119 --> 00:39:26.079 okay uh what temperature is dangerous for laptops internal Hardware I'd say 00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:28.960 anything above 80 to 85 degrees is probably getting into not too 00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:33.680 comfortable Zone laptops are usually pretty well like they know what they're 00:39:31.119 --> 00:39:37.359 building they're usually cooled enough no updates on the Intel smartphones we 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 00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:45.760 the booth did mention to us though was that especially the lower cost one was 00:39:43.720 --> 00:39:49.800 aimed more at developing markets and not so much as a North American thing so 00:39:47.440 --> 00:39:53.599 it's got like good performance but quite inexpensive so they were aiming to get 00:39:51.880 --> 00:39:59.200 smartphones down to sort of a few hundred Price Point again uh utilizing 00:39:56.720 --> 00:40:05.319 what you're talking about with the uh distribution networks they know where 00:40:01.520 --> 00:40:08.599 they can push so might as well 00:40:05.319 --> 00:40:10.880 mhm speaking of 00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:17.119 phones I have officially switched to an HTC 8X I'm running Windows 8 phone 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 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 00:40:23.800 --> 00:40:31.560 frustrations actually maybe tomorrow or Monday we should film part two of my I 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 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 00:40:38.000 --> 00:40:43.440 that bothered me on day one or everything I thought was cool on day one 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 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 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 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 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 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 00:41:06.720 --> 00:41:13.400 he refused to try it he grabbed Windows Phone 8 which is like still being 00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:17.960 developed for pretty hardcore because it's like oh I've seen his list of notes 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 00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:28.280 yeah that one's pretty frustrating you cannot cannot turn off auto rotate on 00:41:25.319 --> 00:41:33.440 Windows 8 Windows Phone 8 and not wrong I can hear you all rushing to your 00:41:30.520 --> 00:41:38.560 keyboards and Googling it Windows Phone 8 does not support disabling auto rotate 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 00:41:41.119 --> 00:41:46.560 cannot do that it will switch to landscape mode on you so then you'll 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 00:41:48.119 --> 00:41:53.599 again and you'll end up in this endless cycle of flipping the phone around not 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 00:41:55.480 --> 00:42:01.839 last week my keyboard works that was weird the cable completely 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 00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:11.880 exact same time so well was probably to do with the broken cable like fing 00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:16.599 things up maybe yeah um so I had to pitch that cable 00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:17.880 and and he stole my C I stole your cable 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 00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:29.760 the I'm using the detachable cable from my quickfire because the quickfire is 00:42:27.160 --> 00:42:34.520 detachable cable is awesome it's like sleeved and golden tipped and just sweet 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 00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:43.839 want to talk let's talk more consolidation before we do this one okay 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 00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:49.760 did anyone actually manage you asked a question and then you clicked on the 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 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 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 00:43:03.680 --> 00:43:09.880 if he's in a particular scenario and maybe Far Cry 3 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 00:43:12.880 --> 00:43:18.160 don't sort of he's wrong in the context 00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:22.440 of most games and anything we've ever tested but if he's found a scenario 00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:27.960 where the 8350 comes out ahead we haven't seen his video yes so 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 00:43:29.160 --> 00:43:36.359 video slick your thoughts on the Elder SCS MMO while I eat I am excited and 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 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 00:43:42.839 --> 00:43:49.319 going to write for why I should be chosen for this beta I'm actually going 00:43:46.599 --> 00:43:52.359 to sit down tomorrow for like an hour or two and like properly script the whole 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 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 00:43:58.680 --> 00:44:02.599 what did you take I thought you took English I skipped 00:44:03.520 --> 00:44:07.760 it anyways I know you're good at that 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 00:44:09.760 --> 00:44:17.000 get you to edit it somehow um hate you you're fired and then I'm 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 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 00:44:23.640 --> 00:44:31.119 to destroy everything but then later on they're like hey we listened to our fans 00:44:28.040 --> 00:44:33.160 and changed it so it could they're 00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:36.119 actually listening and like I've seen quite a few videos if you check out the 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 00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:44.920 forum we go on this forum we read everything that gets posted under these 00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:48.200 forums on these specific like sticky topics and stuff we read everything and 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 00:44:53.800 --> 00:45:02.040 I'm actually really excited I've been a huge fan of every single Elder Scrolls 00:44:58.400 --> 00:45:04.640 game ever uh mowind is like by far and 00:45:02.040 --> 00:45:08.400 large way above everything else in my L of favorite G nothing is far and large 00:45:07.040 --> 00:45:12.680 if it was far and large then that's the same as it being close and 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 00:45:14.720 --> 00:45:24.440 close and large 00:45:19.160 --> 00:45:26.720 touche anyways um it is by far and 00:45:24.440 --> 00:45:29.880 large my personal favorite game ever I've my like list of games that I just 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 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 00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:44.319 go back and play them I seriously doubt they will beat morwin though prob 00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:49.359 probably not probably not one of my spring breaks in high school I spent 00:45:47.319 --> 00:45:55.559 pretty much the entire duration on the couch in front of my TV playing morn 00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:57.920 almost the entire time I love that game 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 00:45:59.720 --> 00:46:05.280 going to bother repeat that but yeah amazing I'm stoked for Elder schols MMO 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 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 00:46:12.680 --> 00:46:17.800 the 16th or whatever expansion pack they're on now okay I was going to say 00:46:15.920 --> 00:46:22.240 expansion yeah still technically the same one yeah but come on I mean it's 00:46:20.680 --> 00:46:26.480 such a different game compared to what it was when it launched completely yeah 00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:30.040 it's ridiculous well but that's good that's probably what's kept it fresh 00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:34.520 that's probably what's kept subscribers too because at the beginning it was it 00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:37.240 actually oh people might hate me for this I think at the beginning it was a 00:46:36.119 --> 00:46:41.839 little bit more hardcore and at the beginning you had to have a 40-man raid 00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:46.440 group to do raids so you needed this like huge network of people all the 00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:49.680 servers were self-contained at the very beginning there was no Battlegrounds so 00:46:48.760 --> 00:46:53.480 all I don't even know what a Battleground is so like there's like a 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 00:46:55.839 --> 00:47:01.839 the beginning you needed 40 people if you wanted to raid there was World PVP 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 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 00:47:07.200 --> 00:47:12.520 server because there's only like three really big guilds on the server so you 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 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 00:47:18.680 --> 00:47:25.839 even use vent that much anymore it's Skype now anyways um like you knew 00:47:23.440 --> 00:47:29.280 everyone now it's massively across server and now when you look for an 00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:32.920 instance you just like click a button and click join and a timer goes and then 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 00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:41.160 you just leave when you're done so there's no like communication really 00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:45.800 like there used to be so it's more mainstream way more mainstream it's kind 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 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 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 00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:07.960 to post anything so let's take that as 00:48:06.040 --> 00:48:13.440 no one thinks EA has ever acquired anything and not eared it I just saw a 00:48:11.520 --> 00:48:19.000 funny Twitter um D D D D D yeah I I see nothing 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 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 00:48:27.240 --> 00:48:34.119 guys remember linkis used to be their own thing and then they were acquired by 00:48:31.000 --> 00:48:36.520 Cisco so any recent linkis router 00:48:34.119 --> 00:48:43.160 actually has a big Cisco on it and then like a little like linkis somewhere like 00:48:39.040 --> 00:48:46.440 maybe on the bottom um Cisco the deal is 00:48:43.160 --> 00:48:48.920 done has sold off the linkis in fact the 00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:54.760 entire consumer networking business unit to belon of all 00:48:51.680 --> 00:48:56.160 companies so Cisco gradually closed 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 00:49:00.240 --> 00:49:06.440 were catching up so fast was like yeah 00:49:04.119 --> 00:49:12.599 I'm going to carry around a dedicated device to film crappy videos no offense 00:49:10.079 --> 00:49:17.920 to flip I made a video about the flip way back when and basically because you 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 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 00:49:22.640 --> 00:49:28.599 video was I showed a sample video shot with the flip or I shot another video 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 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 00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:46.520 ducky 908 DK 2 you're such a 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 00:49:48.640 --> 00:49:54.760 the account name to that YouTube I don't know the password to that mysterious 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 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 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 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 00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:17.760 I'm really excited about this like mouth breathing into the 00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:23.000 camera so cool it's not even like it's pretty bad 00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:27.400 basically what I do is show off Blue switches that's basically what I did 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 00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:38.400 haven't seen that guy since okay here we go hey someone defending EA EA acquired 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 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 00:50:45.119 --> 00:50:50.160 but uh so guys you know what I'd love 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 00:50:53.920 --> 00:51:02.160 tell us what you think about the 00:50:57.480 --> 00:51:05.839 lynis uh the lynxis deal where they are 00:51:02.160 --> 00:51:08.520 being there we go where they are being 00:51:05.839 --> 00:51:13.400 acquired by Bellin just seems like such a strange 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 00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:20.760 doesn't work on Windows 7 it does fix it 00:51:18.319 --> 00:51:24.799 someone doesn't care someone loves bacon I think belin's a good company Cisco 00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:31.720 something bankrupt and something holy crap wow it now I remember why we don't 00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:35.319 use can't read it okay lynxis is the 00:51:31.720 --> 00:51:37.480 whole R uh okay you know what I give up 00:51:35.319 --> 00:51:40.760 can one of the mods put on slow mode ah it's okay we're 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 00:51:46.119 --> 00:51:51.480 Cisco get rid of it because and see this 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 00:51:54.040 --> 00:52:03.520 the way that uh a normal person might think make sense so Cisco has a certain 00:52:01.040 --> 00:52:08.720 profit margin that they have to maintain in order to please their shareholders 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 00:52:10.520 --> 00:52:17.160 making in general it's the percentages and everything it's it's making sure 00:52:14.079 --> 00:52:18.799 that those numbers all keep growing so 00:52:17.160 --> 00:52:22.400 you have to grow how much revenue you're doing you have to grow your profit 00:52:20.599 --> 00:52:25.559 margin you have to grow your market share you have to grow your unit sold 00:52:24.319 --> 00:52:28.920 you have to grow them all at the same time that's what gives shareholders a 00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:33.839 big happy smiley face and makes them invest money into your company so if I'm 00:52:32.000 --> 00:52:40.440 Cisco and I'm like okay so I own this linkis consumer consumer brand and they 00:52:37.960 --> 00:52:46.200 sell routers and maybe compared to Cisco equipment which 00:52:42.200 --> 00:52:48.240 has well into double digits margins on 00:52:46.200 --> 00:52:54.599 it oh yeah like well into double digits margins Because the actual bomb cost of 00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:57.480 a high-end Cisco switch is not this the 00:52:54.599 --> 00:53:01.079 opposite of that is peanuts compared to the development and the software that 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 00:53:03.079 --> 00:53:07.000 they can actually sell any of them then they're 00:53:09.240 --> 00:53:17.000 like and the thing is they'll probably sell quite a few yeah whereas with a 00:53:14.319 --> 00:53:20.839 consumer product okay you have to put in all that work developing it but you have 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 00:53:23.160 --> 00:53:28.400 on actually selling the thing so and 00:53:26.160 --> 00:53:32.799 then you got to deal with retailers and they want all these backend programs and 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 00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:41.119 calling you and they're like um the 00:53:38.480 --> 00:53:46.359 lights aren't on did you plug it in well no my internet's not 00:53:43.839 --> 00:53:50.200 working um do you have internet is it the 00:53:47.520 --> 00:53:55.079 WPS does that open the port so that's the kind of thing that a 00:53:52.640 --> 00:53:59.200 company like Cisco is not really set up for or accustomed to so the amount of 00:53:57.280 --> 00:54:03.000 overhead that goes into dealing with retail consumer Brands and how low the 00:54:01.880 --> 00:54:08.799 margins are compared to their traditional business so if I was sort of 00:54:06.240 --> 00:54:14.319 the only one making the decision I'd go okay well are they 00:54:10.440 --> 00:54:16.839 profitable yes are they doing business 00:54:14.319 --> 00:54:22.280 are they employing people are they providing a good service to their 00:54:18.240 --> 00:54:25.400 customers yes yes yes yes okay leave it 00:54:22.280 --> 00:54:27.440 alone what's wrong with it whereas from 00:54:25.400 --> 00:54:31.680 a bigger business perspective are they profitable is not as important as are 00:54:29.839 --> 00:54:37.799 they growing our profit margin so there you go Belin on the 00:54:35.359 --> 00:54:43.400 other hand is accustomed to the low margin sort of consumer oriented 00:54:40.240 --> 00:54:47.799 branding business uh the one concern I'd 00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:50.680 have about Belin is do they have the do 00:54:47.799 --> 00:54:57.480 they have the coonies to do the kinds of things that lynis did where they had 00:54:53.119 --> 00:55:02.359 very long-term SKS things like wrt54 00:54:57.480 --> 00:55:04.960 ran forever amazing things like ea4500 00:55:02.359 --> 00:55:08.880 even have a long life cycle compared to what I've seen from typical Belin 00:55:07.200 --> 00:55:13.400 consumer products where they just they're there and then they kind of 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 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 00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:26.319 theme that we had when we excuse me when we were talking about motherboards 00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:29.680 before where it's that cons consolidation so how many networking 00:55:28.079 --> 00:55:31.960 guys are left compared to how many there were 00:55:33.359 --> 00:55:40.880 before okay well Cisco doesn't care so 00:55:37.200 --> 00:55:43.200 just so you know Cisco did nothing wrong 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 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 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 00:55:53.000 --> 00:56:02.319 the bank my friend's GPU died out of nowhere sometimes 00:55:58.079 --> 00:56:07.599 happens uh sure why 00:56:02.319 --> 00:56:10.720 not uh oh Vector nice scared you don't 00:56:07.599 --> 00:56:12.680 click on buttons man he seemed like 00:56:10.720 --> 00:56:17.480 pretty coherent didn't the last one seemed pretty coherent yeah I think so 00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:20.599 and we all got screamed at 75 to $100 00:56:17.480 --> 00:56:20.599 mid Tower get a Define 00:56:21.039 --> 00:56:26.319 R4 well I know uh GTX 680 now wait for 00:56:24.839 --> 00:56:31.680 you know what this is always the internal question let me put it this way 00:56:29.119 --> 00:56:37.240 uh if you can afford a GTX 680 right now and it meets your performance 00:56:32.920 --> 00:56:38.760 requirements go for it GTX 700 series is 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 00:56:41.440 --> 00:56:48.079 at NC this week There's a GTX 670 for 00:56:44.680 --> 00:56:51.520 what was it 2 280 or something it's like 00:56:48.079 --> 00:56:52.960 289 or 299 or something under $300 after 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 00:56:56.760 --> 00:57:04.680 yeah will a 700 series perform better yes will it cost probably double to 00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:06.520 Triple that yes it will so it's up to 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 00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:14.480 forums yet because of multiple reasons but you can jump on a hardware Forum 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 00:57:16.240 --> 00:57:22.359 find someone who's unloading their 680 in anticipation of 700 series right now 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 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 00:57:30.200 --> 00:57:38.559 absolutely nothing to do with your CPU Cooler or your SSD but grab an h100i and 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 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 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 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 00:57:55.240 --> 00:58:02.039 area um sorry I don't have time for that 00:57:59.400 --> 00:58:05.720 right now hi Puerto Rico please fix the focus of the live stream is the focus 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 00:58:07.520 --> 00:58:13.440 fix that uh sure okay slicks on it is 00:58:10.880 --> 00:58:19.720 PCIe 3.0 capable by AMD motherboards only compatible with visher 00:58:15.400 --> 00:58:21.079 architecture uh yes wait what what the 00:58:19.720 --> 00:58:25.359 heck is he talking about vishera and bulldozzer are the same thing vishera is 00:58:23.599 --> 00:58:32.720 an architecture made up of bulldozer cores so any of the newer FX 00:58:28.359 --> 00:58:33.920 8350 80 or 6300 what am I doing I need 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 00:58:37.319 --> 00:58:40.839 when it's trying to focus okay 00:58:41.280 --> 00:58:44.880 okay is that 00:58:44.880 --> 00:58:49.599 better it's actually hard to make it 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 00:58:51.319 --> 00:58:57.960 you kill par he says no okay no doesn't 00:58:56.200 --> 00:59:00.440 Belin still make their own routers isn't this sort of anti-competitive what do 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 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 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 00:59:12.839 --> 00:59:22.400 okay we're talking guys we're talking about branded motherboards sold on their 00:59:18.200 --> 00:59:24.799 own guess I won't buy linkx this 00:59:22.400 --> 00:59:30.440 anymore 4500s are still going to be awesome even when doesn't own it uh yes 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 00:59:32.839 --> 00:59:40.400 you well okay sort of that's a bench yeah it's just a thermal 00:59:37.240 --> 00:59:42.119 bench I saw it earlier didn't want to 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 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 00:59:49.039 --> 00:59:57.000 didn't actually have enough money or care to buy it um ASUS is quickly 00:59:55.280 --> 01:00:01.559 gaining Market share in the networking space they are just 00:59:58.760 --> 01:00:04.920 rolling like freaking huge so it kind of makes sense ASUS is just ASUS where 01:00:03.400 --> 01:00:09.000 you're just kind of like okay the first generation product might not be perfect 01:00:07.440 --> 01:00:12.559 and the second generation product might not still be perfect but the third 01:00:10.839 --> 01:00:16.839 generation one will just sort of roll everything else and everyone else might 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 01:00:20.119 --> 01:00:26.480 you it's like it's like their their mission statement just must just be like 01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:31.119 take your time destroy go into new categories question 01:00:29.520 --> 01:00:36.319 mark destroy because they're ASUS I mean it's 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 01:00:40.400 --> 01:00:44.480 win stock clock crisis 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 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 01:00:58.039 --> 01:01:05.079 okay so so where did it all go consolidation is the theme of the night 01:01:02.880 --> 01:01:09.039 I couldn't find the exact post that I Foundation is the theme tell me more 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 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 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 01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:28.359 the company Acquisitions so Sega acquired Relic who makes company heroes 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 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 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 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 01:01:43.880 --> 01:01:48.079 in they're a parent company now it doesn't 01:01:48.160 --> 01:01:53.960 matter coach media the guys that bought volition they're a parent company right 01:01:52.279 --> 01:01:58.000 okay they own the they own the company that makes Dead Island okay and Dead 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 01:02:00.039 --> 01:02:07.119 okay so it was one game twice yeah okay 01:02:04.440 --> 01:02:12.000 cool um so wasn't it like not a very well regarded game some people really 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 01:02:13.799 --> 01:02:19.240 people liked it a lot or absolutely hated it I think it had fun multiplayer 01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:22.359 okay or Co-op or something I never actually played it Co-op zombie games is 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 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 01:02:27.599 --> 01:02:34.680 media uh took out volition which has 01:02:30.839 --> 01:02:37.920 Saints Row and they bought Metro so 2033 01:02:34.680 --> 01:02:40.480 and the rights to 2034 okay and then 01:02:37.920 --> 01:02:44.200 krych grabbed Homefront which I think krych is already making Homefront to so 01:02:42.680 --> 01:02:47.960 they just bought the whole thing so now it's theirs instead of buying the rights 01:02:45.960 --> 01:02:52.319 to do it temporarily okay instead of being a developer for yeah yeah so now 01:02:50.480 --> 01:02:55.880 they own the whole thing so they just basically were like okay we'll take that 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 01:02:57.520 --> 01:03:02.440 actually that's probably a really good sign oh yeah cuz krych knows their 01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:06.960 business and if krych thinks whatever they're working on is like going to be 01:03:05.000 --> 01:03:12.680 good then I sort of trust krych inherently that's good take two who is 01:03:09.559 --> 01:03:15.760 2K and Rockstar grabbed evolve which is 01:03:12.680 --> 01:03:18.839 a code name project so not sure what 01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:20.520 that is could it be a new uh what was 01:03:18.839 --> 01:03:24.920 that that game by The Sims guy that no one cared 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 01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:33.079 think wasn't that one of like the biggest devastating so stoked for that 01:03:31.359 --> 01:03:37.279 game I bought the like pre-released character creator thing and I bought the 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 01:03:39.880 --> 01:03:46.920 fulltime through just cuz I was like no I bought both these things I will play 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 01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:56.240 pre bu they developed it for like ridiculous amounts of time yeah oh yeah 01:03:54.559 --> 01:03:59.279 I don't remember how long it was and then it was just like devastating oh 01:03:58.079 --> 01:04:02.799 this feels like an indie game that you developed in like a couple months well 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 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 01:04:08.119 --> 01:04:13.119 apparently I never played it but was apparently a pretty decent game Alan 01:04:11.400 --> 01:04:19.319 Wake yeah yeah lots of people like it but I mean they were talking about Allan 01:04:15.640 --> 01:04:20.440 Wake when I was running a 9600 Pro like 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 01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:30.400 Truth so have you seen videos for that 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 01:04:33.839 --> 01:04:39.960 actually be interested in I did play the South Park game for N64 though the 01:04:37.760 --> 01:04:44.240 snowball fight was awesome I think South Park is the only one that can like 01:04:41.880 --> 01:04:48.160 really pull it off well they have the like the character style already that 01:04:45.880 --> 01:04:52.640 they' adapt very well they have sort of as long as they've actually got the 01:04:49.839 --> 01:04:56.680 writing team involved to make it I think they did South Park humor like there's 01:04:54.839 --> 01:05:01.480 been Simpsons G games that if I hear correctly are somewhat oh The Simpsons 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 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 01:05:07.960 --> 01:05:14.079 you're like swinging your skateboard around and like that's awesome yeah like 01:05:12.039 --> 01:05:18.839 bad guys all look like uh Principal Skinner or whatever and like yeah no 01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:23.279 it's awesome that's sweet so amazing but like actually pretty stoked for that and 01:05:20.440 --> 01:05:30.920 then they just completely consumed THQ Montreal I just went like oh I see there 01:05:26.599 --> 01:05:32.279 ours now so yeah there's one wait I 01:05:30.920 --> 01:05:37.119 don't think you ever said Ubisoft that's what I don't did you say 01:05:34.880 --> 01:05:43.279 Ubisoft I think Ubisoft took over South Park SE of Truth and Montreal I think 01:05:39.960 --> 01:05:44.680 and then they yeah I think there's one 01:05:43.279 --> 01:05:48.920 title I don't remember which one it is it's the group that makes 01:05:46.520 --> 01:05:53.359 Darksiders they have not been purchased yet and that's because they are not up 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 01:05:55.160 --> 01:06:00.119 be part of the bankruptcy deal but they 01:05:58.160 --> 01:06:03.240 are not up for sale which is kind of sucky because dark starters was actually 01:06:01.760 --> 01:06:07.319 pretty awesome it goes to show you how much money it takes to run a publisher 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 01:06:09.359 --> 01:06:16.119 month ago THQ ran that in bundle that that yeah that Humble Bundle and they 01:06:13.480 --> 01:06:21.000 made like a lot that injected a lot of cash into the company and they're 01:06:18.200 --> 01:06:24.079 bankrupt now already yeah like was that did they already know that it was going 01:06:22.680 --> 01:06:28.440 down no matter what I think the idea with that cuz you notice like steam 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 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 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 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 01:06:41.760 --> 01:06:47.599 pushed the Humble Bundle thing he pushed some crazy aggressive steam sales he 01:06:45.960 --> 01:06:51.319 just like went absolutely crazy but I just guess it wasn't enough probably 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 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 01:06:59.559 --> 01:07:05.079 survive to that release they might have been able to pull it back out right but 01:07:03.920 --> 01:07:09.680 they probably just couldn't live that long which is really unfortunate because 01:07:07.039 --> 01:07:12.480 THQ is pretty awesome I'm actually pretty upset that they're gone but some 01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:17.520 of the Acquisitions I'm crisis yeah or krych 01:07:15.480 --> 01:07:23.279 rather krych Ubisoft Ubisoft has been doing really great so far okay lately 01:07:19.720 --> 01:07:25.960 now except for you play I'm sorry but 01:07:23.279 --> 01:07:29.480 you play is like come on guys what did it do the other 01:07:27.480 --> 01:07:33.000 day that was oh yeah we had all the files in the install directory and we 01:07:31.279 --> 01:07:36.359 went to play the game and it just it just disappeared gone had no idea 01:07:35.119 --> 01:07:41.760 completely gone no idea it was there I mean this is stuff that even uh even 01:07:39.680 --> 01:07:47.240 that other one that I even the gross orange circle of origin yeah origin even 01:07:44.079 --> 01:07:49.200 origin has that figured out um I haven't 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 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 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 01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:07.599 okay so I'm um I can never find my shoes 01:08:03.319 --> 01:08:10.279 my brilliant plan is to go ahead and uh 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 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 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 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 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 01:08:28.799 --> 01:08:34.920 whole thing with automated like programmable events okay like the phone 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 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 01:08:41.080 --> 01:08:46.319 random lights turn on at random intervals make it look like you're at 01:08:44.279 --> 01:08:50.920 home and what yeah so cool cool stuff like that baby mode would be cool just 01:08:49.040 --> 01:08:57.440 have everything in the house turn off baby mode yeah be like baby sleeping 01:08:52.839 --> 01:08:57.440 mode just like power down everything 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 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 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 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 01:09:16.440 --> 01:09:23.440 quiet house yeah my house is sort of quiet um lonus what's the Forum server 01:09:20.759 --> 01:09:26.520 running don't ask me Forum server running what do you mean what do you 01:09:25.080 --> 01:09:33.759 mean Hardware software what are you talking about Apache Cent Apache 01:09:30.239 --> 01:09:37.839 Centos uh what board's in there 980f 01:09:33.759 --> 01:09:42.359 980x it's a 980x on an MSI Big 01:09:37.839 --> 01:09:44.759 Bang yeah yeah oh yeah big bang X power 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 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 01:09:51.279 --> 01:09:59.159 card passive yeah passive card pretty cool um some fsp 400 power supply we had 01:09:56.440 --> 01:10:02.480 a stock cooler in there that uh this was due to Slick's utter incompetent 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 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 01:10:08.000 --> 01:10:13.760 quite in enough so that was uh that was causing some overheating and CPU 01:10:12.199 --> 01:10:17.360 throttling so we have a stock Intel cooler in there that's like one of the 01:10:15.320 --> 01:10:22.199 baller ones with the blue LED and like the copper all around it and like an 01:10:19.679 --> 01:10:27.640 extreme Edition stock heat sink to explain a lot of the outages um we now 01:10:24.360 --> 01:10:29.040 have a new boss mode firewall and since 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 01:10:33.719 --> 01:10:40.239 like the afternoon after the new firewall was installed it was hit some 01:10:38.080 --> 01:10:44.239 guy was hitting it like 9,000 times and then like that afternoon we're getting 01:10:41.880 --> 01:10:50.600 dosed right away so like we've been getting hit pretty hard um we had power 01:10:47.159 --> 01:10:51.800 issues today oh that was awesome explain 01:10:50.600 --> 01:10:56.600 what was running on what the electricians wired up the tech tips 01:10:54.000 --> 01:11:00.960 Studio incorrectly so there's a bank of eight Outlets that's supposed to run all 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 01:11:02.640 --> 01:11:10.679 run all of the lights and the test computers and all that stuff and it went 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 01:11:14.239 --> 01:11:20.360 I mean what were we running off the thing like a microwave you know 2,000 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 01:11:22.440 --> 01:11:27.400 breaker and I call up the warehouse manager I'm like the only only one 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 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 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 01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:43.719 basically the TV in the back of the NC 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 01:11:46.080 --> 01:11:53.440 breaker for all of our lights and test benches and everything else and the 01:11:49.840 --> 01:11:55.000 servers and everything and everything so 01:11:53.440 --> 01:11:58.400 that happens so the electrician's coming in to switch that around and then we had 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 01:12:00.400 --> 01:12:07.280 in the meantime so it doesn't go down when the electrician comes in and 01:12:03.719 --> 01:12:10.480 switches it around and then I had to we 01:12:07.280 --> 01:12:12.239 I had to take out the 650 TI I had to 01:12:10.480 --> 01:12:19.480 take out the 660ti that was in my Windows 01:12:15.920 --> 01:12:22.400 Server um this is actually pretty funny 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 01:12:25.800 --> 01:12:32.719 on hold on hold on hold onol it's like a meme picture called 01:12:29.880 --> 01:12:36.159 friend zone uh keep telling yourself it's better than demotivational poster 01:12:34.480 --> 01:12:40.199 yeah it's whatever you're a demotivational poster it does kind of 01:12:38.239 --> 01:12:43.080 look like you though actually does it yeah here hold your head above above 01:12:41.760 --> 01:12:49.440 that guy I have to go like well now you're so 01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:52.560 close yeah see now it totally looks like that's awesome I usually have short hair 01:12:51.080 --> 01:12:57.120 though I just haven't gotten a haircut in like seven months yeah 01:12:58.120 --> 01:13:05.239 do you want a beta key for Firefall uh I'm 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 01:13:07.199 --> 01:13:12.960 you guys sorry man I appreciate it but it would probably be better spent on 01:13:10.239 --> 01:13:16.360 someone else we appreciate it um do we have any other topics for tonight I'm 01:13:14.920 --> 01:13:19.199 sure there was something the Far Cry 3 Benchmark video oh I want to know if 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 01:13:23.000 --> 01:13:32.280 bunch of videos for like actually some of the cards are behind me 01:13:27.719 --> 01:13:34.600 like what card for what card is best AMD 01:13:32.280 --> 01:13:39.360 versus NVIDIA so we'll show like the best two cards under different price 01:13:36.440 --> 01:13:42.520 points uh for Far Cry 3 so we're choosing three different price points 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 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 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 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 01:13:58.000 --> 01:14:04.440 have to hit everyone you have to run over all the guys so what my methodology 01:14:02.800 --> 01:14:07.480 is you drive around you drive up the thing you hit all the time barrels but 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 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 01:14:13.679 --> 01:14:24.080 you guys are interested in us posting a video of like lonus describing what the 01:14:19.920 --> 01:14:25.719 Benchmark is about showing like me 01:14:24.080 --> 01:14:28.719 getting into the game and then showing where where I start The Benchmark 01:14:27.239 --> 01:14:32.920 starting The Benchmark going through the whole thing and ending it and then 01:14:30.719 --> 01:14:36.679 lineus ending off the video if you guys would actually think that's interesting 01:14:34.159 --> 01:14:40.600 content we've never shown our benchmarking methodology that deeply 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 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 01:14:47.760 --> 01:14:53.400 properly shown the whole Benchmark in fraps like on the screen so you can see 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 01:14:55.120 --> 01:15:00.600 compare your own system so you can go okay what kind of performance do I get 01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:04.520 versus if I was running a system like what they're running that's cool right 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 01:15:06.960 --> 01:15:12.920 lonus whatever whatever ramblings section if he posts that video up and we 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 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 01:15:20.120 --> 01:15:25.520 this well and that's cool because compared to most like uh reviews or 01:15:24.400 --> 01:15:33.199 whatever else where you have whatever their revieww system was you don't necessarily you 01:15:30.159 --> 01:15:34.639 need more variety than that because the 01:15:33.199 --> 01:15:38.679 way that you do a review is very different from the way that you look at 01:15:36.480 --> 01:15:44.719 overall how does this game Run on a variety of of platforms because you tend 01:15:41.280 --> 01:15:46.480 to do things like overball out the CPU 01:15:44.719 --> 01:15:49.760 so that you can see the differences between all the graphics cards whereas 01:15:48.280 --> 01:15:54.600 if we have people posting their configurations CPU GPU RAM um it's 01:15:53.679 --> 01:16:00.520 probably the only thing that really matters uh CPU GPU RAM and frames per second 01:15:58.880 --> 01:16:04.600 then that gives us a really clear picture of what which platforms it runs 01:16:02.840 --> 01:16:09.400 best on and what affects the performance of that particular uh game yeah I did 01:16:07.880 --> 01:16:13.920 have something that I forget now someone will post that sometime being like I 01:16:11.280 --> 01:16:17.600 have a 3570k and a sabertooth with 8 gigs of RAM and then everyone will be 01:16:15.800 --> 01:16:26.040 able to properly see what their system like whatever graphics card all right so 01:16:21.520 --> 01:16:30.239 I uh I called the Bell customer service 01:16:26.040 --> 01:16:33.520 quote uh buttheads unquote on the last 01:16:30.239 --> 01:16:36.880 live stream and I would just like to say 01:16:33.520 --> 01:16:39.239 that they have proven themselves to me 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 01:16:42.000 --> 01:16:47.719 and they actually had did did I I don't 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 01:16:50.880 --> 01:16:57.120 going on so they tracked down my name and my phone number and called me and 01:16:55.320 --> 01:17:02.800 they were like is this a good time to talk because our understanding is that 01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:07.280 you may have had a negative experience with Bell customer service which I 01:17:04.679 --> 01:17:11.080 should clarify it wasn't quite so much that it was a negative experience as 01:17:09.120 --> 01:17:17.080 that it was a complicated and timec consuming experience they 01:17:14.719 --> 01:17:22.520 um what I was doing was I was transferring the ownership of a cell 01:17:19.199 --> 01:17:25.440 phone plan from a corporate account to a 01:17:22.520 --> 01:17:31.320 personal account to a different small business account under someone 01:17:28.320 --> 01:17:34.639 else's existing account so what I was 01:17:31.320 --> 01:17:37.960 doing was extremely complicated on top 01:17:34.639 --> 01:17:39.600 of that I was changing my plan and I was 01:17:37.960 --> 01:17:43.719 trying to see if I qualified for a hardware upgrade and I was trying to get 01:17:41.880 --> 01:17:47.760 a new phone so that's what was going on that's 01:17:46.360 --> 01:17:53.280 why I was on the phone with Bell customer service for like an entire day 01:17:50.560 --> 01:17:57.120 um they were more difficult than because people didn't really understand exactly 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 01:17:59.199 --> 01:18:06.360 the website you can't actually do like a comparison so everything's verbal so 01:18:04.520 --> 01:18:12.239 there's a lot of miscommunication whereas finally I just got in a car and 01:18:09.000 --> 01:18:14.600 went to the Bell store and got someone 01:18:12.239 --> 01:18:17.280 to pull out their cheat sheet that only they're allowed to see it says like 01:18:15.760 --> 01:18:21.679 confidential everything all over the top of it and I was like look no one can 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 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 01:18:26.560 --> 01:18:33.040 any debate about what my plan entails 01:18:29.639 --> 01:18:35.800 we'll all know so so that that got done 01:18:33.040 --> 01:18:39.960 and then they clarified everything and um I was just frustrated because it took 01:18:38.080 --> 01:18:44.719 so long and I was also frustrated because because of what the existing 01:18:42.679 --> 01:18:50.040 owner of the corporate account integrated my phone number had done 01:18:47.480 --> 01:18:54.120 before I didn't qualify for a hardware upgrade even though I otherwise would 01:18:51.600 --> 01:18:58.520 have so uh so that was where some of the miscommunication was there because they 01:18:55.639 --> 01:19:02.520 had renewed my agreement when they moved it over to something else in some way so 01:19:01.040 --> 01:19:05.280 that's why I didn't qualify for my Hardware upgrade so I was frustrated 01:19:04.040 --> 01:19:09.960 about that as well but it wasn't actually Belle's fault in that case so 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 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 01:19:16.120 --> 01:19:23.239 they did clarify a couple of things about my plan that I hadn't managed to 01:19:19.920 --> 01:19:24.880 figure out until now um but they were 01:19:23.239 --> 01:19:28.520 they were sort of deeply concerned that I had you know called because they 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 01:19:30.040 --> 01:19:36.239 complaint and I couldn't actually remember even mentioning it in the live 01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:40.120 stream it was slick who told me that in the live stream I had said something 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 01:19:41.800 --> 01:19:47.400 called them buttheads that's probably that's probably why they were upset so 01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:51.480 our new plan is to call everyone buttheads yeah so we're going to start 01:19:49.159 --> 01:19:55.960 with Intel Intel's a bunch of buttheads they're just all they're all buttheads 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 01:19:58.199 --> 01:20:07.000 called me reports directly to the VP at Bell or AVP anyway we need to like 01:20:04.679 --> 01:20:12.000 seriously call everyone buttheads so I need I'm expecting a call from Craig 01:20:09.120 --> 01:20:16.960 Barrett himself at this point you know apologizing 01:20:13.520 --> 01:20:18.840 for whatever whatever whatever Intel did 01:20:16.960 --> 01:20:24.040 to wrong us blam you for making good CPUs yeah 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 01:20:26.679 --> 01:20:29.560 things that are better to 01:20:30.040 --> 01:20:36.080 buy so there so anyway uh yes I was 01:20:33.920 --> 01:20:39.880 frustrated it was probably not very nice of me to call them buttheads because I 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 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 01:20:46.639 --> 01:20:52.400 you guys decide if you think that the company in question is buttheads or if 01:20:50.800 --> 01:20:59.159 they're not so there you go awesome a yeah that 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 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 01:21:05.360 --> 01:21:11.840 yes but gabri yes you'll have his babies I was talking about Gabriel's 01:21:10.159 --> 01:21:15.040 comment go you're talking about babies bring up marius's comment as well and 01:21:13.199 --> 01:21:19.600 yes we love pure Android compared to anything 01:21:16.880 --> 01:21:24.199 else pure Android is like everything else should be cleansed yeah no offense 01:21:22.719 --> 01:21:30.360 to everyone else who tries to not do pure right I mean I love you guys 01:21:28.239 --> 01:21:34.679 but no not really maybe a little bit in some games 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 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 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 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 01:21:53.520 --> 01:22:00.600 460 which is a similar Gap and it slowed it 01:21:57.239 --> 01:22:02.400 down okay it's not about the Gap no I 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 01:22:04.920 --> 01:22:10.199 is still a very capable 01:22:07.920 --> 01:22:13.440 card watching from Norway at a land party go play games that's what I was 01:22:11.600 --> 01:22:17.400 saying that's why I said go to Gabriel's oh yeah go play games 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 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 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 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 01:22:32.600 --> 01:22:38.120 honestly do you think I would pay for two of anything no but I was thinking 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 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 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 01:22:51.719 --> 01:22:57.480 could listen to music but actually have 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 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 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 01:23:07.639 --> 01:23:13.960 segregated and qos out the yinyang and then uh you could have everything else 01:23:12.199 --> 01:23:18.120 sort of running off of your wired connection what are some games you're 01:23:15.600 --> 01:23:22.880 looking forward to in 2013 I'm looking forward to the Star Citizen 01:23:20.280 --> 01:23:28.960 Alpha yeah and that's about it Star Citizen uh 01:23:25.719 --> 01:23:31.120 oh what is it called planetary Planet 01:23:28.960 --> 01:23:35.600 Planetary Annihilation Planetary Annihilation looks sweet does it yeah SS 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 01:23:39.880 --> 01:23:45.639 you can grab asteroids and strap Rockets to the asteroids and bomb your enemy's 01:23:43.800 --> 01:23:50.280 base with asteroids so basically it's civilization except after you make the 01:23:47.520 --> 01:23:57.000 spaceship there game freaking awesome and like you can fight people with like 01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:59.239 planetary object X which is just sweet 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 01:24:01.679 --> 01:24:07.960 sense but sweet I remain skeptical I think it's going to be awesome it's 01:24:05.360 --> 01:24:11.679 Kickstarter game look it up my 660 keeps crashing usually happens during a visual 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 01:24:13.920 --> 01:24:20.239 overall system stability issue may not actually be directly related uh neither 01:24:18.679 --> 01:24:25.239 neither of those are neither of those are good Solutions uh what graphics card would 01:24:23.600 --> 01:24:29.120 you recommend for intense video editing on Adobe software any Cuda capable card 01:24:27.679 --> 01:24:33.480 particularly a Quadro Far Cry 3 bench go got it you 01:24:32.360 --> 01:24:37.520 still planning on Switching the form software due to all the glitches no no 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 01:24:40.560 --> 01:24:46.440 large it it works works there's a lot of 01:24:43.920 --> 01:24:51.440 like okay another bajillion showed out to Mr Wizard and the rest of the mod 01:24:48.280 --> 01:24:54.000 team um but sorry rest of the mod team 01:24:51.440 --> 01:24:58.760 mainly Mr Wizard we've been like fighting 01:24:54.920 --> 01:25:00.719 V Buon 5 to make this thing work um 01:24:58.760 --> 01:25:04.520 there have been an incredible amount of problems but we've also made an 01:25:02.639 --> 01:25:09.440 incredible amount of progress it's fairly stable right now most the out 01:25:06.840 --> 01:25:12.679 outages that you see is because like we were running it in a horrible ghetto 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 01:25:15.400 --> 01:25:21.199 power and me moving it across the room and to where it should stay for should 01:25:19.600 --> 01:25:24.719 stay forever and like we're still working on the permanent solution we and 01:25:22.920 --> 01:25:28.400 we got their new firewall so had to go down while the new firewall was 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 01:25:33.679 --> 01:25:39.440 hopefully they can still happen we're we're we're moving forward we're working 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 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 01:25:45.560 --> 01:25:50.760 space is basically what he's he's not giving me the budget for any external 01:25:48.719 --> 01:25:55.360 hosting well we could have done external hosting if it was like that website 01:25:52.360 --> 01:25:57.480 hosting plan that included like no St 01:25:55.360 --> 01:26:00.239 like how many five gigs of storage or something no what was it for the 01:25:58.600 --> 01:26:03.280 database you were allowed to have as many databases as you want but they 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 01:26:05.320 --> 01:26:10.920 the biggest plan that was like pretty expensive and he wasn't stoked about and 01:26:08.960 --> 01:26:15.400 then we had like five gigs of hard drive storage and like 512 megabytes of RAM 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 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 01:26:22.960 --> 01:26:31.159 256 gig SSD that's in there falling back 01:26:26.639 --> 01:26:33.480 to the 1 tbte re4 Enterprise level raid 01:26:31.159 --> 01:26:36.119 one that is basically backing up everything what we did have budget for 01:26:35.040 --> 01:26:43.119 was computer hardware yeah we had budget for that yes 01:26:39.880 --> 01:26:44.239 because we had it but like H there's a 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 01:26:47.280 --> 01:26:54.840 rolling out ads on that right side under the thank you NCI label which is like 01:26:52.600 --> 01:26:58.920 just void space right now there was a poll someone put up a poll asking really 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 01:27:00.840 --> 01:27:07.040 charity drive okay which it would alleviate costs so it would well that 01:27:05.159 --> 01:27:10.360 doesn't necessarily contribute in any way to the charity drive the charity 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 01:27:12.639 --> 01:27:18.719 doing it already just click the like button on all of our videos because if 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 01:27:21.239 --> 01:27:27.440 your choice if you visit the Linus Tech tips Forum in the charity section uh go 01:27:25.719 --> 01:27:30.440 there and then you have an option for a lot of different charities that we can 01:27:28.920 --> 01:27:34.360 contribute it to it basically comes directly out of my pocket so which is I 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 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 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 01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:52.199 care okay no one actually said no so if the form was ad supported apparently 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 01:27:55.320 --> 01:28:01.639 don't want flashing like crazy stuff they want like stable kind of normal 01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:05.600 looking images so basically they want the ads that they can 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 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 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 01:28:17.360 --> 01:28:22.639 remember that one ridiculous and the other one that I 01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:26.280 hate is the one where it's like move your mouse to like punch punch George 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 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 01:28:31.719 --> 01:28:39.360 something so I'll do it like twice um yes so we'll probably be 01:28:37.239 --> 01:28:43.080 rolling out ads not crazy ones I think they just don't want that like attack 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 01:28:45.159 --> 01:28:49.719 on the right side and we'll try and alleviate some of that cost uh 2400 01:28:48.159 --> 01:28:53.280 people watching tonight so it's a little slower than some other weeks but uh it 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 01:28:56.000 --> 01:29:06.760 we care about those 40 apparently his e4200 V2 slowed down his internet that 01:29:02.400 --> 01:29:08.080 uh is probably something else or like 01:29:06.760 --> 01:29:13.080 legendarily broken uh Sean why do I hate consoles 01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:17.159 two words and I will illustrate these words although I'm stoked for the new 01:29:15.480 --> 01:29:21.480 PlayStation new Xbox because it'll push ported games to be better okay that yes 01:29:19.600 --> 01:29:26.679 but okay oh okay well then more than two words keyboard and mouse are words one 01:29:23.840 --> 01:29:33.280 and to and then the other things are holding back game development the only 01:29:30.840 --> 01:29:38.239 reason we don't have games that have real time calculations and physics as 01:29:35.880 --> 01:29:43.560 part of the core gameplay are because they have to Port it to consoles so 01:29:41.280 --> 01:29:47.119 there that's why consoles bother me I don't hate consoles he's like think 01:29:45.679 --> 01:29:52.880 about it NVIDIA Shield is using a controller good for that I won't play 01:29:50.239 --> 01:29:59.440 Shooters on it I can tell you that right now racing games on conses racing games 01:29:55.679 --> 01:30:00.920 yay um sports games yay I play 01:29:59.440 --> 01:30:06.239 Assassin's Creed on the computer but I use an Xbox controller RPGs yay lots of 01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:11.600 stuff is way better on Console compared to computer 01:30:08.840 --> 01:30:16.000 um yeah not all RPGs are better on console for computer I think that flows 01:30:13.360 --> 01:30:20.800 back on the RPG I'm thinking like Final Fantasy style way way way better console 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 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 01:30:28.880 --> 01:30:35.679 are coming out with eight gigs of RAM and eight cores okay so like oh yeah 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 01:30:37.239 --> 01:30:42.840 about play leaks too I heard that 01:30:40.840 --> 01:30:47.159 there's no way that that happened at the same time no I think PlayStation leaked 01:30:44.800 --> 01:30:50.600 earlier actually completely intentional like for them to both be around the same 01:30:48.560 --> 01:30:54.920 time you know you got to imagine both around the same spec you you got to 01:30:52.320 --> 01:30:58.719 imagine like Xbox EX and like PlayStation Executives sitting 01:30:56.600 --> 01:31:02.760 around a table with like cigars and like playing cards and like discussing you 01:31:00.840 --> 01:31:07.440 know the schedule on which they'll both leak things and then this and then 01:31:04.440 --> 01:31:09.159 launch and like I'm you know I'm not 01:31:07.440 --> 01:31:14.719 accusing them of actually doing that because that's not good that's collusion 01:31:11.440 --> 01:31:16.080 or whatever it is but uh yeah I just you 01:31:14.719 --> 01:31:20.480 you have like that image in your head when these things it's like when you 01:31:17.960 --> 01:31:28.119 know AMD and Intel launch CPU platforms at like the same time or AMD and NVIDIA 01:31:23.639 --> 01:31:31.080 launch new gpus at like the same time so 01:31:28.119 --> 01:31:34.639 yeah uh what are some useful networking programs you 01:31:32.360 --> 01:31:40.280 suggest um what what are you trying to do man Windows 8 yeah what are you 01:31:37.119 --> 01:31:42.760 trying to do Post in the networking form 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 01:31:46.760 --> 01:31:52.600 okay put it two different videos probably not uh h110 coming out coming 01:31:51.719 --> 01:31:59.080 very soon um it's different than the h100 because 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 01:32:01.159 --> 01:32:05.880 be pretty good never had my hands on one personally I've also not personally used 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 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 01:32:14.119 --> 01:32:22.119 media yeah but that's the promedia 2.1 is nothing like 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 01:32:24.480 --> 01:32:33.199 2500s okay I'd love to see the methodology awesome come on to Australia 01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:36.040 no too hot 48 degrees CS that's 01:32:33.199 --> 01:32:41.360 ridiculous is that even right no is it right I hope not yeah it's like 01:32:39.560 --> 01:32:45.480 all desert down there basically isn't it and it's the opposite season Sim City 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 01:32:48.639 --> 01:32:56.239 really uh on Reddit there's a Sim City uh Reddit and people are freaking out 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 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 01:33:02.119 --> 01:33:09.520 is the keyboard I use on the live stream it is an AO KB 178 01:33:06.840 --> 01:33:14.800 RT some games are not meant to be played with a controller yeah of course 01:33:11.960 --> 01:33:18.960 not yeah uh would you recommend an fx8350 if you can leverage the course 01:33:17.400 --> 01:33:24.560 okay apparently the leaked Xbox specs were faked all right I don't know man to 01:33:22.040 --> 01:33:28.639 Washington how far from the border is ex uh depends where you are in Washington 01:33:26.520 --> 01:33:32.840 Washington's a big state all right I think we're pretty much done for the 01:33:30.080 --> 01:33:37.119 night good night everybody and thank you for tuning into the live stream and 01:33:34.679 --> 01:33:44.360 don't forget to tune in to live streams featuring 01:33:41.239 --> 01:33:47.560 me and you and me yeah you're here too 01:33:44.360 --> 01:33:49.199 yeah you're fired apparently that joke 01:33:47.560 --> 01:33:54.440 is apparently that joke is old now someone went like crazy defending me on 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 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 01:34:01.080 --> 01:34:07.440 appreciate it cool but they must know you're not actually fired yeah or are 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 01:34:10.679 --> 01:34:17.880 the crazy amount of threads where people say slick is fired on the Forum well you 01:34:15.480 --> 01:34:22.000 were fired a crazy number of times so it makes sense I heard someone was trying 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 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 01:34:27.800 --> 01:34:34.520 add offscreen fires then off screen that's gonna be tough because you get 01:34:31.400 --> 01:34:37.360 fired a lot yeah he gets fired a lot I 01:34:34.520 --> 01:34:42.440 mean today oh no yesterday that thing where you ran all of the benchmarks and 01:34:39.800 --> 01:34:46.159 overclocked all okay okay so yeah embarrass okay if he's going to tell the 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 01:34:47.800 --> 01:34:54.440 story so slick I would like for you to 01:34:51.360 --> 01:34:59.560 actually tell me how many times you 01:34:54.440 --> 01:35:03.280 think I told you to use a cloud storage 01:34:59.560 --> 01:35:05.320 solution to log his maximum overclocks 01:35:03.280 --> 01:35:07.760 on this entire table full of video cards and everything else I've ever 01:35:06.280 --> 01:35:13.760 overclocked while working with you behind us okay that as well as his 01:35:11.280 --> 01:35:18.119 results for the Far Cry 3 benchmarks he ran for six different cards so this was 01:35:16.320 --> 01:35:22.800 probably like four or five hours of testing finding maximum overclocks using 01:35:20.440 --> 01:35:28.080 crisis which is a good stress tester and then um and then running benchmarks on 01:35:24.880 --> 01:35:29.800 Far Cry 3 to uh and then making graphs 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 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 01:35:39.760 --> 01:35:47.960 how many cloud storage uh Services did you save them 01:35:43.280 --> 01:35:51.080 to I saved part of them to one okay and 01:35:47.960 --> 01:35:53.639 uh what were you saving them to Google 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 01:35:55.320 --> 01:36:01.040 drive okay what happened to that flash drive I was trying to preper video for 01:35:59.440 --> 01:36:04.199 True Crypt didn't realize it was still in the machine and went to encrypt a 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 01:36:08.360 --> 01:36:15.320 go to his workstation and I'm like slick 01:36:12.360 --> 01:36:21.159 what are you doing are you finished the benchmarks he's like yeah I'm finished 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 01:36:24.119 --> 01:36:30.639 back did that work how hard did I rub that you know I 01:36:28.600 --> 01:36:35.040 don't think I actually fired you cuz I think I basically said something like 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 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 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 01:36:46.159 --> 01:36:54.239 this oh I ended up running like three different data recovery programs and 01:36:50.800 --> 01:36:56.440 like oh I was not happy that was was not 01:36:54.239 --> 01:36:59.840 a good time so I was just like what did we 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 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 01:37:06.800 --> 01:37:14.440 over and over and over again there's a reason that I harp on redundancy and 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 01:37:16.040 --> 01:37:23.320 server in my house and an offsite raid five that it backs up to every night 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 01:37:24.800 --> 01:37:31.040 know about is that drive I have been backing up because I knew it was 01:37:28.520 --> 01:37:36.600 important so I had everything from before the Far Cry 3 benchmarks on it 01:37:33.840 --> 01:37:42.880 and I had all of that I had just finished moving to drive so everything 01:37:39.719 --> 01:37:45.320 that didn't matter was was backed up to 01:37:42.880 --> 01:37:49.840 my personal PC and backed up to Google Drive and everything that currently 01:37:47.040 --> 01:37:57.080 mattered disappeared so so guys there's the lesson for you cloud is good uh 01:37:53.679 --> 01:37:59.239 backups in general are good um 01:37:57.080 --> 01:38:02.800 accidentally formatting things is bad not good so I you know what I think I 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 01:38:04.560 --> 01:38:12.520 it once I lost my music library and my entire photo library once when I was 01:38:09.199 --> 01:38:15.480 like I must have been grade 10 so when I 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 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 01:38:22.639 --> 01:38:28.639 a flash drive even then like accidentally formatting a volume though 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 01:38:30.440 --> 01:38:37.239 never been physical drive failure because I've always used raid I've had 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 01:38:38.560 --> 01:38:46.840 about this first moving to my mineral L PC in the middle of building my mineral 01:38:43.159 --> 01:38:48.320 o PC and okay um like the hard drive in 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 01:38:50.520 --> 01:38:57.159 it's is it gone I can't see any anymore 01:38:53.760 --> 01:39:00.360 good enough for me go away the hard 01:38:57.159 --> 01:39:03.080 drive for my mineral PC sat in like the 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 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 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 01:39:15.080 --> 01:39:21.840 and I go pick up my hard drive you see what's happening I'm 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 01:39:55.679 --> 01:40:01.159 point I ended up plugging it in like a month later it's 01:39:58.920 --> 01:40:07.360 like like okay I think the only hard drive that I ever killed by dropping it 01:40:03.639 --> 01:40:09.760 was my old one tbte external 2 and 1 12 01:40:07.360 --> 01:40:14.719 in drive that had that awesome custom form factor like super thick 2 and 1/2 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 01:40:16.679 --> 01:40:22.840 it was some custom Seagate thing that I don't think many people bought them 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 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 01:40:30.360 --> 01:40:36.920 of an optical drive oh slid out 01:40:33.400 --> 01:40:38.880 disconnected the wire hit the ground and 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 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 01:40:45.520 --> 01:40:53.480 middle of bench marking the 6870 video 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 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 01:40:59.360 --> 01:41:04.960 same bat Time same bat Channel and until we move it and then it will be a 01:41:03.119 --> 01:41:10.639 different bat time on it well the same bat 01:41:06.199 --> 01:41:10.639 Channel there are no bats
