WEBVTT

00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:05.920
and okay we're actually live this time

00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:11.040
woo we got that going no problem no big deal not a thing yeah oh is a thing but

00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:20.279
it's a it's an okay thing so we've got a great show for you guys today I'm here

00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:22.840
Luke's here and uh John might be making

00:00:20.279 --> 00:00:28.320
an appearance really for one specific topic oh do we have another legal topic

00:00:26.080 --> 00:00:30.880
yeah oh I see you know those are actually some of the most interesting

00:00:29.439 --> 00:00:36.239
ones for me he'll go off on some where he's like

00:00:34.239 --> 00:00:42.039
I'll have some misconception or whatever and he'll go off he'll be like well

00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:43.840
actually it works this way or in this

00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:47.719
specific state or whatever it turns out that I got an education for a reason and

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:53.079
you probably should have gone to school and you know oh no I disagree with that

00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:57.120
for your specific use case not for everybody really okay you know what's

00:00:54.559 --> 00:01:04.799
funny is I actually had lunch with a local content producer yeah um earlier

00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:06.960
this week like she she does like this

00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:13.439
kind of vertically integrated content production for uh business professionals

00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:15.560
okay that's like about stocks and like

00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:21.040
business tips and stuff like that and apparently their program actually airs

00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:25.680
uh among other things on one of Fox's things like a fox business thing okay

00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:30.159
and then also on like Air Canada flights like very old media yeah you know like

00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:36.720
relationships with you know know National Airlines and like Network TV

00:01:34.399 --> 00:01:40.880
and um anyway so she wanted to have lunch I had no idea what she wanted uh

00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:46.560
basically we did like a studio tour Taran was instructed by someone who

00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:48.799
works with her doing some stuff over at

00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:53.280
BCIT and the funny thing is Taran brought me into their studio so that I

00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:57.960
could see how like a proper company does things and maybe we should have edit

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:02.880
Suites and maybe we should have this and maybe we should have that and it turned

00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:05.719
out that in much the same way as us they learned as they went and there were a

00:02:04.360 --> 00:02:10.920
lot of things they did better than us and there are a lot of things we do better than them so that was

00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:14.400
enlightening and fun did they do edit Suites uh they do have edit Suites that

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.640
was what he wanted me to see what he didn't want me to see was all the other

00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:26.160
kind of janky stuff like the fact that they literally have footage archived on

00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:28.879
betas still whoa yeah but remember

00:02:26.160 --> 00:02:33.560
broadcast TV that was a thing but you'd think you'd move it a lot more recently

00:02:31.640 --> 00:02:39.680
where you would actually be submitting finished projects by mailing a beta mag

00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:44.519
t or not a beta Max sorry it's like they were two different standards yeah like

00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:48.640
the the the broadcast tape version and like the one that competed with VH

00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.680
anyway the point the point is they still have like a sh and this is after they

00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:56.920
cleaned up they have like a shelf of betas and I'm like You're great and uh I

00:02:55.519 --> 00:03:01.319
was telling them about the Vault and stuff and they're like yeah that would be pretty cool and Tan's like yeah yeah

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:05.400
that's pretty useful maybe I don't have an editing Suite but I do have that

00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:10.560
anyway the point is um she asked me to have lunch with her and um she she

00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:15.280
didn't really tell me what it was about it turned out she wanted me to talk some

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:19.599
sense into her son okay who had this idea in his head that he was going to he

00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:23.360
has two videos uploaded to YouTube and you know you probably get this all the

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:27.480
time too right people being like how do I be a successful YouTuber especially on

00:03:25.920 --> 00:03:31.879
my not to plug it but especially on my stream yeah especially on your streams

00:03:28.920 --> 00:03:35.360
cuz like you have which is hilarious because my stream sucks and like nobody

00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:40.080
watches it and people ask me how to be a successful streamer and I'm like you think I know I'm glad you said that

00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:46.000
because I was going to crap on your stream a little bit yeah no it's ter I was going to be like yeah like and your

00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:48.959
stream's not even that big or anything

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:53.480
and charity like but you have a lot more success streaming than like you know how

00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:58.000
it's like the first thousand subscribers on YouTube is the hardest right you've

00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:02.599
passed that first handful of twitch subscribers never took a further step

00:04:00.040 --> 00:04:06.560
and phoned it in the rest of the way but you clearly know enough to know

00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:11.799
a thing that people would ask you about it anyway so so usually when people ask

00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:16.680
that question it starts with yeah I just uploaded my first video or I just did my

00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:21.799
first stream what would you recommend and the guy's like yeah so I want to do

00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:23.120
like a um like a fitness clothing line

00:04:21.799 --> 00:04:30.199
and I want to do like a fitness lifestyle Vlog and uh and way way to

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:33.520
compete against everyone yeah and it was

00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.440
funny because his mom's giving me

00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:39.759
additional details like yeah he wants me to pay for plane tickets so he can like

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:46.720
travel interesting places for his lifestyle Vlog of course and so I was

00:04:42.440 --> 00:04:49.720
like yeah all right bro one I'm not

00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:52.000
going to side with your mom and and just

00:04:49.720 --> 00:05:00.560
say straight up stay in school could be a decent strategy because I didn't

00:04:55.360 --> 00:05:00.560
nothing don't worry about it really

00:05:00.880 --> 00:05:05.240
I mean if she's got plane tickets go all around the world okay all right I

00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:09.440
thought you were going somewhere else with that no no totally

00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:15.880
no anyway yeah I'm not siding with his

00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:21.160
mom directly cuz like the whole school thing didn't work out very well for me

00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:25.680
but I was also like on the other hand dude if you're going to succeed as a

00:05:23.039 --> 00:05:32.759
social media influencer you won't succeed unless you have a the passion

00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:34.520
and B the dve slor ethic to do it on the

00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:40.000
side yeah so if you don't have anything better to do then stay in school but

00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:43.800
don't lose track of that this should be your full-time side project yeah and

00:05:42.440 --> 00:05:48.360
that was sort of the advice that I gave and the guy like he looked like I you

00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:52.680
know punched him in the stomach well and I was bigger than I

00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:58.840
am my biggest thing oh my goodness thank you Nick um my biggest thing is like the

00:05:56.039 --> 00:06:03.639
the Nick as should be paying me for this yeah I've been drinking out of this

00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:05.319
bottle on W show for years yeah you can

00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:08.840
call out that person who uh you called out in the super fun yeah okay maybe

00:06:07.080 --> 00:06:14.720
I'll do that I don't think he controls any budget spending there so it won't do

00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:17.039
me any good but that's fine um hey Seuss

00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:20.400
pay us the money for product placement okay see you can never get money for

00:06:18.840 --> 00:06:24.440
product placement if you have product placement all over your stuff for free

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:29.160
anyway people are everyone looks at it and they just go why so why would I pay

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:35.000
for this you're do any ever done a success straight up product placement

00:06:31.599 --> 00:06:36.840
deal I don't think so we tried to do

00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:40.639
something with a smartwatch like with Pebble I think like a thousand years ago

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:45.039
and then Pebble wouldn't even send us review samples and then they got bought

00:06:43.280 --> 00:06:49.440
yeah so that's about how successful we've been whatever yeah maybe they

00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:53.919
should have done that that marketing spot anyway um okay so my thing

00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:58.199
especially people are in his specific position where you're like he's uploaded

00:06:55.520 --> 00:07:02.800
two videos yes my whole thing is like I don't care and you shouldn't

00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:06.639
upload way more that's your big problem right now is you just need to do it a

00:07:04.400 --> 00:07:11.120
whole bunch because there's going to be things that you're missing doing it

00:07:08.599 --> 00:07:17.400
doing it learn from doing it yeah okay anyway like a you know all right let's

00:07:14.039 --> 00:07:17.400
roll the intro

00:07:30.440 --> 00:07:36.599
I don't know if the uh the L show announcement went up oh it did look at

00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:40.479
that LTX I'm actually getting a lot more

00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:45.840
confident that this is going to be a lot of fun yeah um the case toss was really

00:07:43.080 --> 00:07:51.360
fun we put uh we put actually we put Colton's wife in charge of the event

00:07:47.960 --> 00:07:54.319
yeah because previously we had Colton in

00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:58.479
charge um because they had such a wonderful and well organized wedding and

00:07:56.840 --> 00:08:03.319
then we found out that of course he had nothing to do with it so we hired his

00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:05.039
wife and she is doing a bang up job so

00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:13.280
far there is going to be a lot of fun stuff to do also fresh books yay woo

00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:15.960
fresh books and EK water

00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:19.520
blocks now hold on a second actually you know what I'll get into it in the

00:08:16.960 --> 00:08:23.080
sponsor spot but that is not as crazy as it sounds yeah that whole thing that I

00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:29.479
just put on the screen there

00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:31.240
uh okay so first uh first topic you know

00:08:29.479 --> 00:08:37.279
you know what let's jump right into the good stuff today the original article here is from

00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:45.120
PC perspective and it was posted on the Forum by E kin and our buddy Mr the one

00:08:42.719 --> 00:08:51.880
and only Ryan shastic got his hand on an AMD Vega

00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:55.959
Frontier Edition and how he did this I

00:08:51.880 --> 00:09:00.279
can tell you he bought it the same as we

00:08:55.959 --> 00:09:03.240
had to ours is in the mail okay AMD is

00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:08.040
not sampling Frontier Edition why might they not oh actually

00:09:06.760 --> 00:09:14.160
you know what's really funny is I didn't even read the article purchased directly

00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:19.000
from a reseller rather than being

00:09:14.160 --> 00:09:20.560
sampled from AMD um so why didn't they

00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:25.200
want to sample this to press well there are a number of uh potential

00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:30.920
explanations for that can you think of any uh well they've been moving this way

00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:33.680
for a while they okay that's true on the

00:09:30.920 --> 00:09:37.120
professional cards the fire fire class cards and actually kind of both sides

00:09:35.800 --> 00:09:40.839
have been moving this way a little bit inv Vidia has still been on their gaming

00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:44.079
cards have been pushing really hard but AMD for a little while now has been

00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:50.079
saying that they don't want to give out as many reviewer sample cards cuz they want to do more seeding into the

00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:54.040
community and NVIDIA did not sample the Titan xpp yeah we have a video coming

00:09:52.560 --> 00:09:57.680
featuring it soon but we borrowed it from somebody and they're trying to line

00:09:55.760 --> 00:10:02.399
this card up more against those that's true okay my now I'm going to contribute

00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:07.480
a potential reason uh potential reason number two yields are very low and they

00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:10.200
don't have a lot of them yeah okay so that might be another one you got

00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:16.160
another one um I doubt this is a thing MH but even

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:20.000
maybe everyone is buying every single card everywhere for AMD right now

00:10:17.760 --> 00:10:24.839
because of mining okay okay so they like know that it will sell immediately so

00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:27.920
price so rather than giving away literally money in the bank which when

00:10:26.959 --> 00:10:32.160
you're AMD and like with their press right now

00:10:30.560 --> 00:10:36.560
they might not even need reviews of this thing because everyone talking about AMD

00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:40.680
stuff is super popular right now and very positive right now so it's going to

00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:44.680
be popular and positive anyways and then everyone's buying it anyways because of

00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:48.160
mining so they might not even need the marketing that they would get from

00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:55.839
sending it okay which brings us then to reason number four which I actually

00:10:51.160 --> 00:10:58.639
think might be the most likely Vega does

00:10:55.839 --> 00:11:07.000
not look like it is going to set the world on on fire and AMD and for that

00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:11.680
matter um I mean who hasn't done this

00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:15.320
but AMD has demonstrated in the past a a

00:11:11.680 --> 00:11:18.320
lower level of eagerness to seed

00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:23.399
products that they don't think are going

00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:26.880
to be as exciting in an attempt to if

00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:29.880
not limit independent coverage of them

00:11:26.880 --> 00:11:33.279
at least not spend money on getting

00:11:29.880 --> 00:11:35.279
independent coverage of them so let's

00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:39.040
give a a brief outline of what it is so the Vega Founders Edition is not

00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:43.839
explicitly aimed at Gamers Frontier Edition sorry I did that

00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:47.560
a lot on the announcement video like really you guys I actually might have

00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:52.760
another Walkin the park coming on AMD's naming schemes cuz I'm getting real Fed

00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:55.639
Up um so the Vega Frontier Edition like

00:11:52.760 --> 00:12:00.160
almost sort of copy everyone else yeah not explicitly aimed at Gamers uh like

00:11:57.880 --> 00:12:05.880
NVIDIA Titans we shouldn't expect the best performance per dollar okay uh

00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:11.160
gaming results though and this is this is kind of uh this kind of throws up

00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:19.560
some warning flags because with gaming results between a GTX 1070 and a

00:12:14.959 --> 00:12:21.760
1080 priced at $1,000 for the 300 watt

00:12:19.560 --> 00:12:28.160
version this tells us a couple things number one is that and that's the air

00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:30.320
cooled one and $1,500 for the 375 watt

00:12:28.160 --> 00:12:36.839
water cooled one that tells us we are pretty close to the the limit of what

00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:39.600
this chip is capable of and there there

00:12:36.839 --> 00:12:44.720
isn't a lot of magic sauce we did a video kind of covering this a little

00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:47.680
while ago it was a holy Shiite episode

00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:54.360
that we did um where we we like uh $6,000 graphics card we game on

00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:58.600
it the amount of R&D that goes into

00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:59.800
building a GPU is such that you should

00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:07.680
be very surprised if there is a specific product

00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:09.720
created for Quadro versus GeForce yeah

00:13:07.680 --> 00:13:15.760
it's the same product it's the same silicon and in much the same way AMD's

00:13:12.959 --> 00:13:20.320
Frontier Edition silicon will be the same silicon it give or take it might be

00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:23.839
set up and utilized or whatever in different ways and the memory paired

00:13:21.880 --> 00:13:28.160
with it might be different units here and the logic on board might be a little

00:13:26.079 --> 00:13:36.639
bit different a tweak here and there but the amount of money involved in

00:13:30.959 --> 00:13:39.519
building a GPU is incredible so if you

00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:49.360
are expecting then the gaming versions of Vega to come in and crush

00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:53.240
the GTX 10 1080 let alone the 1080 TI

00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:55.759
you are setting yourself up for a major

00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:59.240
disappointment and I'm sure that the AMD fans in twitch chat are freaking out

00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:04.240
right now I'm specifically not looking at it because I really don't care I'm

00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:09.199
laying down some reality here and that's the way it's going to be there is some

00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:16.600
driver optimization to be done and AMD has been notorious for this the 5870 is

00:14:12.560 --> 00:14:18.959
a perfect example of a product that

00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:24.120
managed to get faster enough through driver releases that when they rebadged

00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:28.279
it it ended up being it ended up not looking that bad when you looked at

00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:34.240
launch reviews of the rebadged one versus launch reviews of the original

00:14:30.839 --> 00:14:36.120
one but you can't expect more than it's

00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:39.959
not going to double in speed driver optimizations will give you a little bit

00:14:37.880 --> 00:14:44.560
but the Silicon is by and large not going to change yeah the clock speed is

00:14:42.560 --> 00:14:50.959
by and large not going to change because it's a 300 watt part at $9.99 AMD's

00:14:48.560 --> 00:14:54.839
closest thing to a competitor is probably going to be somewhere in the

00:14:52.240 --> 00:15:00.600
neighborhood of a GTX 1070 to 1080 in terms of performance

00:14:57.480 --> 00:15:02.480
so AMD may not have abandoned the high

00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:09.040
endend but it does look like cuz they're not even talking about like a high end

00:15:06.680 --> 00:15:14.079
Vega architecture product right now not at all they do seem to have abandoned

00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:20.959
whether by choice or whether by strategy the enthusiest The Very extreme highend

00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:24.519
I like using rise of the Tomb Raider as a standard Benchmark we use it in a lot

00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:32.880
of different scales really well CPU and GPU and and multi GPU even and the Vega

00:15:29.040 --> 00:15:35.199
Fe only managed to beat out the 1070 by

00:15:32.880 --> 00:15:39.959
about a 4 to 5% lead which is at that price like really

00:15:39.040 --> 00:15:44.639
not great so um it's not a gaming card no

00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:49.440
it's not and we don't know anything about what pricing of Vega gaming like

00:15:47.920 --> 00:15:53.519
what are they going to call it R9 Vega or something I don't I don't I don't remember what they're going to call it

00:15:52.160 --> 00:15:59.519
but um a lot of times you can

00:15:56.800 --> 00:16:03.399
get a rough idea of how it will perform in things that aren't gaming by using

00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:10.000
games yes they're not unre they're not completely unrelated yeah but with that

00:16:06.319 --> 00:16:12.560
said I believe uh is it fp16 something

00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:17.880
there's there's some more um more professional grade features that make it

00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:22.959
more comparable to quadros than a straight gaming card would that will

00:16:20.040 --> 00:16:27.440
perform much better and may make Vega Frontier Edition very interesting for

00:16:24.920 --> 00:16:34.000
workstation users because it will be similar in terms of performance to to a

00:16:29.199 --> 00:16:37.639
p5000 Quadro but at about half the price

00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:39.160
of that so at the very least if you if

00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:43.720
you were wondering about buying like this crazy tiered AMD card for gaming

00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:48.079
like maybe don't maybe that's what we know so far

00:16:45.959 --> 00:16:51.120
or at the very least like wait until the gaming version of it arrives and we can

00:16:49.880 --> 00:16:55.720
see kind of what we're what we're dealing with here even PC purse

00:16:52.920 --> 00:16:59.519
conclusion is like title marked conclusion do do dot for now or

00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:05.319
something like that so like yeah I don't think it's a huge

00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:07.679
deal um yeah I mean unless you were

00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:12.679
looking into this card at as a gamer's perspective but that's not what it is no

00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:17.919
and it's not how it's priced yeah I am shocked that they had the guts to do a

00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:20.720
water cooled card again like that looked

00:17:17.919 --> 00:17:26.120
like a desperation tactic last time the fury X was a commercial failure utter

00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:27.559
commercial failure and could you buy I

00:17:26.120 --> 00:17:33.080
don't think you could buy a furyx air cooled though right no so this is a

00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:37.360
versioning thing they have an aired

00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:40.440
one Fury X again yeah yeah yeah

00:17:37.360 --> 00:17:42.840
um yeah that's

00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:46.720
fair yeah we've got people in the chat I'm finally I'm finally looking at the

00:17:44.600 --> 00:17:53.320
chat I've decided to subject myself to that uh age core 123 is like AMD fans

00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:57.520
equal NVIDIA fans and then there's some Emoji I can't see cuz it's too small and

00:17:55.240 --> 00:17:59.960
yeah the recent War has I talked about this a little bit on the last show to

00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:04.440
the recent War has been kind of interesting cuz everything that people are fighting about are these like

00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:10.760
outside of the tears of what they're probably shopping for products it is

00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:12.039
funny thing so weird uh the percentage

00:18:10.760 --> 00:18:17.159
of people that are actually interested in buying a $1,000 graphics card cuz if

00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:24.600
AMD can get this priced right then you know it yeah it'll Stomp all over a 1060

00:18:20.159 --> 00:18:26.640
but if it consumes like 300 watts yeah I

00:18:24.600 --> 00:18:31.679
don't know we'll you know what how about this why don't we cross that bridge when

00:18:29.159 --> 00:18:35.880
we get to it in the me that's what we know for now also our Vega Frontier

00:18:34.120 --> 00:18:40.240
Edition is coming so we're going to run all of our own numbers and make our own

00:18:37.600 --> 00:18:44.120
video and you can probably save yourself the trouble of watching it by reading

00:18:41.520 --> 00:18:49.159
shrout's review but am I allowed to say that yeah I mean who's going to who's

00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:52.640
going to fire me

00:18:49.159 --> 00:18:56.240
but lus you're fired damn

00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:58.120
it crap I'll have to go to my other job

00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:02.799
yeah I'll have to go work work for Floatplane club like

00:18:59.360 --> 00:19:04.320
he yeah yeah would you hire me yeah yes

00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:07.919
yeah yeah I would you'd be pretty expensive but all right I feel like that

00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:14.120
investment would pay itself off so the original article for our next news story

00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:18.520
is overclock 3d. net AMD announces their

00:19:14.120 --> 00:19:22.320
new risen pro series of desktop CPUs and

00:19:18.520 --> 00:19:25.799
I I got to confess I was a little bit

00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:29.480
confused initially by the announcement

00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:31.000
of ryzen pro because I kind of went well

00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:35.080
what makes a processor Pro other than being a

00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:42.679
processor nothing I get nothing for processor sorry I'm replying to

00:19:40.679 --> 00:19:48.240
Something in the chat I hate you can you there I can I pretend that

00:19:45.360 --> 00:19:51.960
that laugh was for my joke the best part too is you made a joke and I didn't

00:19:50.120 --> 00:19:56.520
laugh because I was answering a question of someone going really Luke laughing

00:19:54.159 --> 00:20:02.640
again everything's funny I'm just like you know what I enjoy things and I find

00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:04.840
things funny maybe we do WAN Show at the

00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:09.960
end of the day on Friday so we can kind of loosen up a little bit like hang out

00:20:07.679 --> 00:20:13.760
for the first time this week because we almost never see each other this week

00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:20.360
was pretty good this week was pretty good there was a few times yeah yeah da

00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:22.320
zore HK yeah I just enjoy laughing at

00:20:20.360 --> 00:20:27.000
things yeah you know what laughter is the best medicine I even got un you need

00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:32.200
chemotherapy in which case chemotherapy is probably the best medicine might go

00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:33.720
do yes so laughter is the best medicine

00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:39.600
for if you're not actually sick if you're not actually sick okay anyway so

00:20:37.760 --> 00:20:43.840
I was sitting there going what makes something a

00:20:41.360 --> 00:20:52.120
processor and my got him jeez and my my initial answer

00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:53.799
to that was the obvious one ECC support

00:20:52.120 --> 00:20:58.760
okay yeah okay okay so you can use server memory that um has automatic

00:20:56.600 --> 00:21:02.480
error Corrections that are going going on the fly in case there's like you know

00:21:00.520 --> 00:21:08.080
a solar flare that flips a bit or whatever and you your your freaking you

00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:10.520
know freen ass ZFS array gets corrupted

00:21:08.080 --> 00:21:13.000
irreparably like that that's a prole feature but the funny thing about that

00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:19.720
is that ryzen has ECC support they didn't fuse

00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:24.880
it off the way that Intel does on all of their consumer chips even ones that cost

00:21:21.919 --> 00:21:28.679
,000 which I I think is unreasonable because they're worried about um they're

00:21:27.080 --> 00:21:35.840
worried about cannibalizing their ENT prise chips they're

00:21:30.159 --> 00:21:37.799
xeons um so what they do do though and

00:21:35.840 --> 00:21:43.240
this didn't occur to me initially is they offer Windows 10 Enterprise

00:21:39.679 --> 00:21:46.360
security support AES 128bit memory

00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:48.279
encryption and a longer warranty with

00:21:46.360 --> 00:21:55.120
that said a 36-month warranty is what they used to offer anyway but hey okay I

00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:59.679
mean sure it's also a processor so whether it's AMD or Intel they're both

00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:03.520
pretty good about their CPUs not just like randomly failing how many times

00:22:01.919 --> 00:22:11.000
have you had a processor die I had an opteron 165 die I deserved

00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:14.880
it was it your fault I had

00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:16.720
it how do I put this um yes I'm hold yes

00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:21.559
no I didn't like drop it on the floor but you like overvolted the tar off of

00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:27.720
it just can you just relax okay yeah okay so I had it chilled to minus 25°

00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:33.279
okay I'm not going to finish the story

00:22:33.600 --> 00:22:41.840
okay all right all right so so it was not really the processor so I had that

00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:44.840
coming I'm not I'm not yeah so zero so

00:22:41.840 --> 00:22:47.919
far do you have anymore um no I'm also

00:22:44.840 --> 00:22:49.880
at zero so like it's probably fine the

00:22:47.919 --> 00:22:55.400
pro series will come okay now to be clear I have had like test bench chips

00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:57.000
die was that the the old school Chiller

00:22:55.400 --> 00:23:01.279
yes oh that's pretty cool that's the chiller we haven't thrown it away I might resurrect it someday just for LS

00:23:00.080 --> 00:23:05.039
you should do that as a video it would be a great actually it would be a great video that would be really fun get Alex

00:23:03.679 --> 00:23:09.080
to help you with it and like modernize it a little bit get it in a cooler box

00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:12.440
than just Proto case to do something up for us nice I like this project that

00:23:11.120 --> 00:23:17.200
would actually be really sick and then we could use it like on our test benches and stuff that would be really sick we'd

00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:20.640
have to do up a new block for it because the block I used to use for it was a

00:23:18.840 --> 00:23:25.039
dangered end TDX and that was out of pure cheapness maybe you can follow up

00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:31.240
the like terrible heat sink guides with like a we professionally designed our

00:23:27.400 --> 00:23:31.240
own heat sink Terri Chiller

00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:38.799
guide I I would love personally I would love watching that that would be great

00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:42.559
um so I was actually using highly not recommended so with people are asking

00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:47.440
for the story but keep going with antifreeze um and water as coolant

00:23:45.600 --> 00:23:51.559
because once you're going down to no no sorry that's not what you use you use a

00:23:49.320 --> 00:23:56.400
windshield deicer so that's actually like an alcohol based coolant so I was

00:23:54.080 --> 00:24:00.360
using that at like sub 25

00:23:59.080 --> 00:24:07.320
actually a little more than that on the actual cools about sub35 I was using

00:24:03.080 --> 00:24:09.200
that in an acrylic block oh so you

00:24:07.320 --> 00:24:12.840
leaked onto it no no I didn't I didn't no that survived no no I'm just saying

00:24:10.919 --> 00:24:18.000
that that block still exists we still have it but it is so full of micro

00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:20.960
Cracks around the fittings that it is terrifying so I was using it out of

00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:27.320
cheapness because I just assumed it would have cracked at that point whatever block I used in this

00:24:24.919 --> 00:24:31.880
contraption had to have like industrial glue put on it so that could put all of

00:24:29.120 --> 00:24:36.720
my like neoprene insulation and crap all over it and um so it was basically a

00:24:34.399 --> 00:24:40.440
write off and that was at a time that so A well you're supposed to use an all

00:24:38.320 --> 00:24:44.559
metal block yeah preferably all the same metal yeah um so that the expansion and

00:24:42.520 --> 00:24:48.679
contraction isn't of different Metals yeah um so preferably you're supposed to

00:24:46.520 --> 00:24:52.840
do that but those back then I would have been buying like a water cool I think it

00:24:51.159 --> 00:24:59.640
was called the heat killer 3.0 or something like that or whatever it would have been at the time those were 150

00:24:56.760 --> 00:25:03.600
bucks all just silver not you could get silver ones but even the copper ones

00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:08.399
were like they were like 80 or 90 or something stupid like that so um so I

00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:13.159
was using like a crazy dumb thing anyway if we if we Ed the Partnerships that I

00:25:10.919 --> 00:25:17.440
now have with like protoc case to do like a really nice enclosure for it and

00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:21.120
like get EK to build us something like custom or something for it oh that would

00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:24.600
be sick that would be a sick project and something that we could like pull out

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:27.640
with pride on the test bench when we want like yeah you know you know what

00:25:26.279 --> 00:25:30.320
cuz we have more resources now we have more writers

00:25:31.159 --> 00:25:39.919
us when it was just you and me we did some factory tours yes we did Omron we

00:25:36.760 --> 00:25:41.240
did Sennheiser we did uh I feel like

00:25:39.919 --> 00:25:47.799
there was another one I'm Miss uh yeah we did Cherry Cherry How Could You Forget Cherry like my yeah that was

00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:51.039
where we popped our factory tour Cherry yeah it was it was great I think I think

00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:57.240
I missed it because Sennheiser and Cherry were on the same trip they were

00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:59.720
um but now going through like maybe

00:25:57.240 --> 00:26:05.880
spending a couple days there mhm and like going through each station through

00:26:02.679 --> 00:26:07.600
like the design process of a water block

00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:14.279
go through like the guy that cads out the original files you know what we we

00:26:10.720 --> 00:26:16.399
tried to do EK oh we actually were

00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:21.120
thinking about doing it on the same trip as cherry and Sennheiser oh we couldn't

00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:25.760
get it worked out because the budget required for all the travel and because

00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:31.840
we do charge for those that is a sponsored type of project for us um they

00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:35.480
couldn't make that work at the time but now that they're going a little bit more

00:26:33.159 --> 00:26:39.039
mainstream and actually that might work we'll talk a little bit more about that

00:26:36.760 --> 00:26:42.960
when we do our ad spot for w show today that's ekk spot uh maybe we could make

00:26:41.159 --> 00:26:48.559
it work cuz I would love to see their would super cool their shop is sick yeah

00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:53.320
and like if you can actually see like what goes into designing and building a

00:26:50.799 --> 00:26:58.320
product and EK actually manufactures everything so they're not like all water

00:26:56.039 --> 00:27:02.840
cooling companies that are designing somewhere and then Outsourcing to China

00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:07.919
um EK actually owns their own manufacturing so it would be pretty cool

00:27:05.159 --> 00:27:13.279
to see that that would be pretty sick um okay what else what else do we got okay

00:27:09.679 --> 00:27:15.320
ryzen Pro um right we were talking about

00:27:13.279 --> 00:27:20.480
that okay ryen Pro offers yet another advantage over Intel's I3 series

00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:24.000
especially because those lack uh Intel V

00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:26.320
Pro so um basically AMD is putting more

00:27:24.000 --> 00:27:29.679
pressure on Intel and this time it's on the like professional and business

00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:33.080
feature side which is definitely something that I can appreciate because

00:27:31.880 --> 00:27:38.080
I mean you were talking about this the other day security and encryption is

00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:46.080
going to become one of those things where like we might be sitting in a golden age of Hardware right now where

00:27:43.159 --> 00:27:50.480
manufacturers are waking up to the need for encryption on their devices Apple

00:27:47.799 --> 00:27:57.559
has to a great extent yeah and governments haven't outlawed it yet yeah

00:27:53.960 --> 00:28:01.159
so think about this like 10 years from

00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:03.960
now getting your hands on a ryzen pro

00:28:01.159 --> 00:28:07.399
might be like a thing yeah for your like encrypted computer if you want encrypted

00:28:05.760 --> 00:28:11.120
memory yeah think about that for a minute like

00:28:09.519 --> 00:28:15.559
I'm not trying to go all tinfoil hat but it's no secret that governments around

00:28:13.080 --> 00:28:19.640
the world articles in this W show that we haven't talked about yet that are

00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:25.440
exactly in line with this yeah it's going to be uh it's going to be an

00:28:20.640 --> 00:28:28.960
interesting time um AMD accidentally

00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:30.840
reveals ryen 3 details w a is this like

00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:33.840
a quote unquote accidentally or is this legitimately accidentally I can never

00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:38.000
tell with those guys to be honest with you sometimes I suspect that it's quote

00:28:35.840 --> 00:28:42.200
unquote accidentally other times I believe them that it's not accident I

00:28:39.679 --> 00:28:47.159
don't know um anyway originally posted by Ryan Smith over at unon Tech well gee

00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:52.799
if you were paying close attention to this morning's announcement of AMD's new ryzen Pro skes then you likely noticed

00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:55.360
something interesting the non-x pro chips all have the same performance

00:28:54.159 --> 00:28:59.519
specifications as their standard consumer counterparts specifically both

00:28:57.600 --> 00:29:03.320
of the non X pro SKS with existing ryzen 5 and 7 counterparts have the same core

00:29:00.760 --> 00:29:06.480
counts clock speeds and ttps as for the final two ryzen Pro 3 SKS well they

00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:12.200
inadvertently showed their hand when it comes to the forthcoming ryzen

00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:15.480
3 okay so I mean we are making some

00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:17.279
assumptions here but it looks like uh

00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:24.360
they've inadvertently revealed the ryzen 3 1300 and 1200 specs so the ryzen 3

00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:28.799
looks like it'll be a quad core CPU without smt so that's four threads

00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:33.960
rather than eight which in my opinion is what entrylevel

00:29:31.559 --> 00:29:38.840
chips should have been at this point for a few years now uh that's give me one

00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:42.360
quick second sorry you're good everything's fine don't worry about it

00:29:40.840 --> 00:29:48.399
everything's okay is everything okay yeah it is does everything seem okay to you guys

00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:55.960
tell you what why don't we talk about ryzen 3 later why don't I just do the

00:29:50.120 --> 00:29:58.640
sponsor spots so uh boom fresh books uh

00:29:55.960 --> 00:30:02.880
oh right I have I have notes I always go off script and I always get in trouble

00:30:00.039 --> 00:30:08.919
so freshbooks is the super simpl to use invoicing tool that actually does a lot

00:30:06.039 --> 00:30:13.679
more than just help you create and send slick looking invoices you can keep

00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:19.480
track of your time with their time sheet function manage your expenses and keep

00:30:16.679 --> 00:30:24.120
track of who owes you money even going as far as to be able to tell you once

00:30:22.120 --> 00:30:28.159
your client has looked at your invoice for the first time what's really neat is

00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:33.399
their mobile app has all the function ality of the desktop version so you can

00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:35.080
take fresh books with you wherever you

00:30:33.399 --> 00:30:38.480
go and if you have any questions about fresh books or how to use it you can

00:30:36.840 --> 00:30:43.960
reach out to their support staff where you literally call them and someone like

00:30:41.120 --> 00:30:48.039
a person picks up the phone is like hello no one is available to take your

00:30:46.360 --> 00:30:52.039
call please leave it no I'm just kidding not that other part they pick up the phone and they say hello and you can

00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:57.600
actually talk to them no escalations phone trees return calls just answers so

LTX yeah lonus tech expo 2017 where you

00:31:20.120 --> 00:31:25.240
can see this oh I wasn't going to acknowledge it

00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:32.120
everyone's been talking about it in the chat and I was just going to completely IGN also just

00:31:28.760 --> 00:31:35.159
you are also here

00:31:32.120 --> 00:31:37.480

that'll be there but I'm not going to tell you any more about it oh other than

00:31:40.120 --> 00:31:46.840
that uh that might be a lonus tech tips logo

00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:50.840
there yeah that's all we'll say that's all we'll say about it so that'll be

00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:55.200
there um we're probably hopefully going to have okay I'm kind of Tiff my hand a

00:31:53.600 --> 00:31:59.840
little bit here but LTX is going to be freaking sick um we're going to have 15K

00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:05.440
gaming there the cas TOS k i I don't know uh

00:32:03.600 --> 00:32:09.639
it's on Floatplane right now yeah it's ch FL right now yeah it's it's not on

00:32:07.600 --> 00:32:13.320
channel super on YouTube but we did like a a case toss to so show what it might

00:32:11.679 --> 00:32:17.919
be like while you're at LTX there actually tons of fun yep um there's

00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:20.919
going to be other examples of Booth there's going to be other types of

00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:24.360
booths like guess how many CPUs are in a jar kind of like the old Jelly Bean

00:32:22.320 --> 00:32:28.480
thing rocket league in real life uh video editing tips from Taran we're

00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:33.760
literally going to take his Workstation and like transplant it over there and

00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:37.159
just let him keep working yep and he'll be like talking to people about what

00:32:34.919 --> 00:32:41.039
he's doing so it's July 29th from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and you can get your

00:32:38.679 --> 00:32:44.200
ticket through the Forum or at the link in the video description which I'm going

00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:49.840
to go ahead and drop in the twitch chat right now Twitch Plays Pokemon was like

00:32:46.320 --> 00:32:53.519
are we just skipping 8K yes

00:32:49.840 --> 00:32:57.200
yes uh okay other sponsor EK water

00:32:53.519 --> 00:33:01.240
blocks heck yeah so this my friends is

00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:04.559
ek's foray into the mainstream but

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:07.559
unlike their previous Predator lineup

00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:09.200
of thank you trying to make water

00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:17.159
cooling more mainstream like trying to be more like an AIO but better like

00:33:12.080 --> 00:33:19.840
expandable this one is much much less

00:33:17.159 --> 00:33:24.159
expensive so what they've done and this sounds crazy on first glance but we

00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:27.799
actually have a review which by the way we completed it's not uploaded yet but

00:33:26.120 --> 00:33:33.639
we completed we evaluated this thing before we did any sponsor spots for it

00:33:29.919 --> 00:33:36.240
we have a review coming um and it's

00:33:33.639 --> 00:33:41.440
pretty positive uh this thing is really good by making all the blocks out of

00:33:38.919 --> 00:33:46.080
aluminum instead of copper they have lowered the cost they have lowered the

00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:53.559
Machining time which inherently lowers the cost they have retained the

00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:56.519
expandability and they have retained

00:33:53.559 --> 00:34:02.360
most of the performance of a full Copper Custom Loop the drawback is that you

00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:04.080
can't mix ek's a series products with

00:34:02.360 --> 00:34:08.839
their normal products because there would be a risk of galvanic corrosion I

00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:15.320
don't know why Siri started taking off there but the point is the a120 the a240

00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:20.440
and the a240g especially personally I don't

00:34:18.399 --> 00:34:26.240
think this is in my uh I don't think this is in my sponsor notes but

00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:28.399
especially the a240 and the a240g look

00:34:26.240 --> 00:34:32.359
like a fantastic value for custom liquid cooling is it

00:34:30.879 --> 00:34:39.200
the G does that mean it includes like graphics card it does it includes a 1060

00:34:35.280 --> 00:34:42.560
to Titan XP Founders Edition compatible

00:34:39.200 --> 00:34:45.079
block cool so looks pretty darn good and

00:34:42.560 --> 00:34:49.639
unlike other aios it includes actual fittings it includes tubing that you can

00:34:47.359 --> 00:34:56.119
change up for something else it includes vardar fans oh so very good fans and it

00:34:53.200 --> 00:35:01.720
includes um a like like a custom grade pump and then

00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:07.640
tube Reservoir combo nice yeah that's cool so looking looking pretty good so

00:35:03.720 --> 00:35:10.119
you can check that out over at Genie g.

00:35:07.640 --> 00:35:15.440
usek fluid gaming I'll drop that in the twitch chat as

00:35:12.359 --> 00:35:18.200
well okay all right yeah I know I I I

00:35:15.440 --> 00:35:23.520
got the notification from Tyler that he was clearing the fridge out in 15

00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:25.280
minutes and I got it 21 minutes ago oh

00:35:23.520 --> 00:35:28.920
and he was going to throw away your food which I like don't even normally store

00:35:27.160 --> 00:35:32.640
food here cuz I just have like soil in which you don't throw out which I have

00:35:30.520 --> 00:35:36.920
for like breakfast and stuff but there's I had a bunch of food here that my

00:35:34.560 --> 00:35:40.480
girlfriend cooked and she's the least domestic person ever and doesn't cook

00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:45.359
but she's very excited about this stuff right now so if it all got thrown out

00:35:42.359 --> 00:35:46.880
that would have been a very bad um right

00:35:45.359 --> 00:35:51.480
yeah that would have been bad bad scene so I solved that good everything's fine

00:35:49.720 --> 00:35:54.960
so you solved that by fishing it out of the garbage can putting it back in the

00:35:52.880 --> 00:36:00.680
container and not telling her I think I I think in in Tyler's

00:35:58.960 --> 00:36:04.720
regular style he said 15 minutes and it's probably like half an hour okay so

00:36:02.440 --> 00:36:07.880
it just wasn't done yet okay uh we've got people asking why I'm using an

00:36:06.160 --> 00:36:11.640
iPhone to be clear what I mean by that is he gave people a grace period not

00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:18.839
that he's delayed uh I'm using an iPhone because I actually don't really care

00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:22.280
right now um between Android and iOS and

00:36:18.839 --> 00:36:25.280
I had to give the shooters my S8 which I

00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:28.359
was using as my daily driver um to do

00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:29.720
comparative b-roll against the OnePlus 5

00:36:28.359 --> 00:36:35.160
and then I I just haven't gotten around to putting my sim back in the S8 I do intend to go back to the S8 how do you

00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:39.119
feel about the notifications they're both awful in different ways okay cuz

00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:42.160
that was like one thing that I hated about iOS when I used it for a fairly

00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:49.880
short period of time was the notifications yeah um the problem is that Samsung in the I think it was the

00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:52.280
marshmallow update nou nou update so

00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:55.560
Samsung um even when you set your privacy settings people in the

00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:04.000
chat uh even when you set your privacy settings to show your notifications on

00:37:01.440 --> 00:37:09.880
your lock screen before you log in they changed it so that Gmail

00:37:06.560 --> 00:37:12.800
notifications don't show

00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:16.040
anymore so I actually have to unlock the phone like I can see I have Gmail

00:37:14.560 --> 00:37:19.560
notifications but I can't see what they are okay yeah well you should have your

00:37:18.160 --> 00:37:23.400
phone encrypted so it doesn't show what they are

00:37:21.200 --> 00:37:27.119
anyways no I think yeah no it's encrypted but you should you should make

00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:31.319
it so that it doesn't show anyway yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that was like in the security should should

00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:35.720
should should should should but the point is I get too many notifications

00:37:33.079 --> 00:37:38.359
for that to be perfectly Frank with you if certain emails come through you can

00:37:37.200 --> 00:37:43.160
get super screwed yeah I guess that's possible

00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:46.480
just show the subject subject line and like maybe the first few words but

00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:51.200
there's not much there's some emails that can you can get screwed for I don't

00:37:48.280 --> 00:37:54.040
get any like two Factor emails though like

00:37:51.920 --> 00:37:58.680
that cuz I think that's the kind you're thinking of mostly yeah no yeah Okay no

00:37:56.480 --> 00:38:03.640
Okay um so so yeah it it's really frustrating and uh yeah so anyway I just

00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:08.520
haven't put my sim back in the S8 yet and I actually own two SmartWatches they

00:38:06.040 --> 00:38:12.839
both sit on my bedside table on their Chargers and whichever phone I happen to

00:38:10.680 --> 00:38:18.839
be using I just grab either an Android Wear or an Apple Watch wow

00:38:18.960 --> 00:38:25.280
yep cuz I just don't care anymore at

00:38:23.040 --> 00:38:29.319
this point I I am actually pretty psyched for the you know what here let's

00:38:27.480 --> 00:38:32.760
blow through ryzen 3 oh that's the opposite of first world problems that's

00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:37.880
just like first world excess sorry I have a matching phone for

00:38:35.720 --> 00:38:41.119
I have a matching watch for my phone it's perfect all the time you know what

00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:45.079
it's not that different from people who have watches for their outfits in fact

00:38:43.520 --> 00:38:50.280
it's very different I only need two watches more practical that is not more

00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:52.880
practical no your way oh oh I see I was

00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:58.440
I was admitting a minor amount of defeat yeah um so anyway AMD accidentally

00:38:56.640 --> 00:39:01.680
reveals Ryon 3 details it's quad core without smt it'll use the same dies

00:39:00.160 --> 00:39:06.400
ryzen 5 and Ry 7 oh that's surprising actually luk don't get paid enough even

00:39:03.160 --> 00:39:08.920
if I did I wouldn't do that four cores

00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:12.839
distributed over two CCX but we saw that that wasn't a huge deal with the lower

00:39:10.440 --> 00:39:18.000
end ryzen 5S same cash structure as ryzen 5400 blah blah blah blah blah blah

00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:25.079
TDP will still this be the same 65 watt but as we know the TDP ratings for CPUs

00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:28.800
like Intel rates all of their HDT chips

00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:31.480
like 130 Watts y clearly the ones with

00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:36.760
twice as many cores clearly consume more power yeah clearly so there's that just

00:39:34.560 --> 00:39:40.960
like blanket statement whole areas um yeah I had wanted to chat about oh yeah

00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:44.359
you know what well do you want to do this first or that why don't we do that

00:39:42.359 --> 00:39:49.319
let's do that okay okay I realized what we're saying right now is very cryptic

00:39:46.160 --> 00:39:50.839
but this is important if you are not

00:39:49.319 --> 00:39:56.119
already on Floatplane this is the week well other than

00:39:53.960 --> 00:40:02.079
like a scrap scrapyard Wars because unlike scrapyard Wars where we have one

00:39:58.160 --> 00:40:06.480
piece of content that like half of our

00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:09.119
community cannot wait to watch we have

00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:15.160
four pieces of content right now that are behind the Early Access wall on

00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:16.839
Floatplane that are freaking unreal but

00:40:15.160 --> 00:40:20.760
they'll all be coming uh sometime in the next week so if you watched all of them

00:40:18.760 --> 00:40:24.319
and I don't normally watch our videos even that

00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:28.640
often well okay cuz I hear about everything that's going on and I'll like

00:40:26.560 --> 00:40:35.640
talk to the writer that's working on it and know their conclusions and stuff wow

00:40:30.680 --> 00:40:38.599
dick I'm just saying okay so LT video

00:40:35.640 --> 00:40:43.079
exposing dead Mouse's Studio spoiler he's a huge geek this isn't even an LTT

00:40:41.520 --> 00:40:47.079
video but do cell phones actually cause cancer it was an entertaining Tech to

00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:50.880
make you probably know the answer I kind of hope but like it's it's a good thing

00:40:49.240 --> 00:40:57.400
to send to people not everybody does or we wouldn't have made the video Fair um

00:40:53.160 --> 00:41:01.000
LTT unboxing a quantum computer that was

00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:02.160
very cool um that was awesome so was the

00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:06.680
deadmouse one those were both really awesome LT the most important iPad video

00:41:05.359 --> 00:41:12.160
in years which actually got Lost in Translation it's supposed to be the most important iPad in years but that's okay

00:41:10.839 --> 00:41:16.160
we'll figure that out also there's a giraffe in the video which is why it

00:41:14.240 --> 00:41:23.520
says gone wild see we're all about clickbait that's true yeah uh LT the

00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:26.240
ultimate RGB build guide yes build

00:41:23.520 --> 00:41:29.240
guides are back in a real way just to okay okay this one I'll

00:41:29.839 --> 00:41:35.760
uh class distinction didn't know you could do that I'm sorry I didn't even

00:41:33.079 --> 00:41:40.960
know you could do itst preview check out this intro this is very cool

00:41:38.440 --> 00:41:44.200
yeah the best part is can you identify all the people I can tell who some of

00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:48.520
them are except for when they're running by like I know yeah that was very

00:41:46.240 --> 00:41:52.839
obvious yeah I can identify everyone except for

00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:58.880
when they're all running by all at once anyway then it gets messy that's a great

00:41:54.599 --> 00:42:02.480
video LTT can you plastic dip a whole PC

00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:03.880
inside and out LTT unboxing Canada's

00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:09.880
biggest supercomputer um yeah LTT can you plasty

00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:15.119
dip a whole PC is actually really funny yeah so next week is going to be

00:42:12.880 --> 00:42:19.960
ridiculous because many of these projects were things that we've been

00:42:16.359 --> 00:42:22.839
working on for weeks and or months and

00:42:19.960 --> 00:42:27.440
they just all kind of came together at the same time in fact if I was like in

00:42:24.640 --> 00:42:31.200
charge of programming here I might not necessarily like I might have tried to

00:42:28.960 --> 00:42:37.400
find other sort of I don't want to say crappier stuff

00:42:33.760 --> 00:42:40.559
but yeah less expensive content to

00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:43.280
produce to to like space things out a

00:42:40.559 --> 00:42:48.359
little bit um but if you guys want to join the Floatplane Club um basically

00:42:47.040 --> 00:42:53.119
the way to do it you got the link you post it in the chat do you yeah okay

00:42:50.359 --> 00:42:58.040
good LTT Bots got that now's kind of the time to do it and uh yeah it's going to

00:42:56.640 --> 00:43:02.000
be it's going to be a good time it's going to be a good time over on Floatplane right now if you want to binge

00:43:00.599 --> 00:43:11.040
watch all that stuff you're going to be you're going to like it um okay so Apple moving on to news

00:43:08.200 --> 00:43:17.079
this was posted by WM gr on the Forum and the original article is from n

00:43:13.240 --> 00:43:17.079
Gadget it looks like

00:43:17.160 --> 00:43:25.559
Vivo Vivo oh that's what happened there what

00:43:22.200 --> 00:43:27.880
beats Apple to an underd display

00:43:25.559 --> 00:43:32.640
fingerprint scanner but they say that uh the technology

00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:37.880
still has a way to go I mean that's how it sometimes is where people are like

00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:41.000
yeah apple never invented anything whereas a lot of the time Apple doesn't

00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:46.119
invent it they just kind of come along and use it when when it's actually

00:43:43.440 --> 00:43:52.160
mature enough yeah to be clear it's a it's a uh Qualcomm technology yeah um so

00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:58.079
this is an ultra Sonic fingerprint solution offering integration beneath

00:43:55.319 --> 00:44:04.599
OLED displays up to 1 2 mm thick like that's pretty thick a fair amount for an

00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:06.280
OLED um as well as aluminum even that's

00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:11.520
freaking cool that's pretty like if the whole phone imagine this if you could

00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:16.359
have like if you could have like uh just to unlock your phone is like easy like

00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:20.160
it's just one and then to access your encrypted folder you have to put like

00:44:18.319 --> 00:44:23.240
all five fingers on it or you have to like can you imagine that would be

00:44:21.520 --> 00:44:27.359
pretty cool so if you had like you could have like the the fingerprint down here

00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:31.280
and then like all four fingers on the back have to engage yes that' be pretty

00:44:29.440 --> 00:44:34.680
neat I would love that it have to be really accurate for that first gen

00:44:32.720 --> 00:44:38.800
stuff's not going to have that but that's the kind of stuff I'd love to see

00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:43.079
in the future um apparently it works even when the device is immersed in

00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:46.880
water which is a huge problem with existing fingerprint sensors and it

00:44:45.359 --> 00:44:51.160
tolerates to be fair not not because you're like swimming with your phone all the time but like if it's raining or

00:44:50.040 --> 00:44:58.359
something like that if it's a little bit wet it can be really annoying or like if you sweat as much as I do I mean like

00:44:56.440 --> 00:45:02.119
sports not not just in like I'm not I'm not sweaty right now I mean I touched

00:45:00.240 --> 00:45:06.280
your shirt so I could be as sweaty as you

00:45:03.680 --> 00:45:13.119
know yeah he's good he's scientific tests very scientific

00:45:09.559 --> 00:45:14.640
test oh that that was really awkward I

00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:19.440
have problems with fingerprint scanners though um because I have as you know

00:45:17.119 --> 00:45:23.000
annoyingly sweaty hands you're not nearly as bad as when I met you yeah

00:45:21.119 --> 00:45:25.680
when I met you it was like fullon hyperhydrosis

00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:34.000
like it has gotten a little bit better um I would go out of my way to like not

00:45:32.119 --> 00:45:38.440
touch him like when I shook hands at his interview I was just like can I hire

00:45:36.680 --> 00:45:41.599
this guy I also used to like like if I went on a let's get personal here for a

00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:46.559
second if I went on a date with someone I would like avoid that you would avoid

00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:52.480
hand holding so you would just straight grab her by the I'd do like ARM over

00:45:50.040 --> 00:45:57.040
or I don't go no I don't go Trump Style with that but I'd try to go like ARM

00:45:54.119 --> 00:46:01.640
over shoulders or like like something I would even do the like joking ARM in ARM

00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:05.920
we're being funny old school thing wow that's cringe dude well I would do it as

00:46:03.280 --> 00:46:10.160
a joke to be clear but I would do that for like a couple seconds to try to show

00:46:07.839 --> 00:46:13.680
like I'm not being standoffish but also I'm going to do this as a joke and then

00:46:11.520 --> 00:46:19.319
stop because I don't want to hold your hand wow because I was like yeah it's

00:46:16.359 --> 00:46:26.440
pretty gnarly it's it's it's mostly fine now okay um yeah how's it going so

00:46:23.720 --> 00:46:30.280
anyway vivo's xplay 6 demonstrated the technology the demo started off with a

00:46:28.640 --> 00:46:34.240
fingerprint registration process that requested blah blah blah etc etc then

00:46:32.680 --> 00:46:42.960
the user would be able to unlock the phone by touching the spot where they did the setup process or somewhere else

00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:47.079
um so fingerprint recognition speed in this implementation is slower than the

00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:50.359
near instantaneous unlock we expect from normal fingerprint scanners about a

00:46:48.680 --> 00:46:54.160
second between the first touch and entering the home screen but they said

00:46:52.720 --> 00:46:58.400
the same Tech could be applied across the entire screen oh wait no hold on F

00:46:56.440 --> 00:47:02.319
oh yeah so they touched a different area just above the old fingerprint button um

00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:06.400
so instead they might eventually cover just the bottom half of the screen

00:47:03.960 --> 00:47:10.720
rather than the whole screen um to save cost and yeah same Tex shown on the back

00:47:09.319 --> 00:47:16.440
of the phone's body allowing it to be unlocked even when placed in water

00:47:12.319 --> 00:47:18.200
pretty cool yeah I really like like I

00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:25.280
very much like the fingerprint unlock on the back of the pixel I'm a huge fan of

00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:27.119
that um are we going into this yeah I

00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:32.440
don't know should we or is it just boring I want to talk about ethereum

00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:38.000
mining this is a really quick one but this was uh posted on futurism and the

00:47:34.359 --> 00:47:38.000
original post on the Forum was Ginger

00:47:38.960 --> 00:47:45.559
137 and the headline kind of says it all there's not not a whole lot more to say

00:47:43.040 --> 00:47:49.400
at this point ethereum could be using more than an entire country's worth of

00:47:47.839 --> 00:47:54.319
electricity now of course we don't mean like China or the us or whatever um oh

00:47:53.240 --> 00:48:00.880
hi guys but um I think the the country that

00:47:58.079 --> 00:48:06.440
we were talking about was oh a small country Cyprus um so a

00:48:04.599 --> 00:48:15.839
bit more than what consumed by the island of Cypress so 4.2 terawatt

00:48:11.400 --> 00:48:15.839
hours wow that's pretty

00:48:16.160 --> 00:48:22.240
insane so one major reason for this is the power hungry graphics cards that are

00:48:20.800 --> 00:48:28.200
involved but this might not be the case for long ethereum has plans to move away

00:48:24.680 --> 00:48:30.640
from its existing energy intensive

00:48:28.200 --> 00:48:34.440
algorithms so there you go I wonder what that means for people's Hardware if it's

00:48:32.720 --> 00:48:41.240
just an algorithm thing like will that rebalance what is better at it it means

00:48:37.200 --> 00:48:43.839
a lot of cheap 580s on the uh on

00:48:41.240 --> 00:48:48.319
eBay hopefully because honestly I was talking to someone the other day buying

00:48:45.400 --> 00:48:53.960
a computer right now kind of sucks holy crap it's a great time to buy a CPU yeah

00:48:51.480 --> 00:48:57.319
but okay but on the counterargument and people are going to hate me for this but

00:48:56.160 --> 00:49:01.680
it's kind of rough to get into PC gaming

00:48:59.720 --> 00:49:05.920
right now and I actually see a lot of people going like okay well the graphics

00:49:04.160 --> 00:49:12.280
card that I want is going to cost more than the freaking console yep and like

00:49:09.040 --> 00:49:13.640
it's hard to justify yep it's genuinely

00:49:12.280 --> 00:49:18.240
a little bit hard to justify it's cuz the graphics cards are so expensive and

00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:22.480
if I'm AMD I certainly want to sell graphics cards for as much as I can of

00:49:20.200 --> 00:49:25.760
course why not or NVIDIA for that matter although NVIDIA has been a little less

00:49:24.240 --> 00:49:29.760
popular on the whole ethereum mining side of things and like seen some stuff

00:49:27.720 --> 00:49:32.839
where people are trying to snipe out stores because certain stores aren't

00:49:31.359 --> 00:49:36.799
increasing their prices because they're just trying to go for MSRP and RAM too

00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:40.599
there's a worldwide Dam shortage that's expected to last well into next year

00:49:38.640 --> 00:49:46.119
it's great for companies like Corsair cuz it's hilarious like RAM makers like

00:49:43.160 --> 00:49:51.839
Corsair and Kingston where they they buy modules and then sell them uh it's great

00:49:49.520 --> 00:49:55.359
for them because as much as it's frustrating for them to not be able to

00:49:53.440 --> 00:50:00.920
get as much allocation as they'd like to sell they're margin on a product like

00:49:58.040 --> 00:50:05.160
that is kind of set cuz there's a lot of competitors out there and everybody's

00:50:02.319 --> 00:50:11.240
kind of in that 7 to 12% range pretty much give or take but even though

00:50:07.799 --> 00:50:14.160
they're selling less what they do sell

00:50:11.240 --> 00:50:21.280
hits their um hits their revenue numbers a lot harder so they're doing more

00:50:16.119 --> 00:50:24.440
revenue and making 10% let's say on a $

00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:27.240
transaction versus making 10% on a $100

00:50:24.440 --> 00:50:34.599
transaction having to do all the same fixed cost things so thep the processing

00:50:31.160 --> 00:50:39.559
fee Transportation marketing uh

00:50:34.599 --> 00:50:43.559
packaging yeah hey that's great for them

00:50:39.559 --> 00:50:45.960
um speaking of the memory business rip

00:50:43.559 --> 00:50:50.480
Lexar memory cards this was posted by shutter Boy on The Forum the original

00:50:48.440 --> 00:50:56.240
article here is from petapixel but crucial I don't know if

00:50:53.160 --> 00:50:59.000
you guys know this but uh Micron parent

00:50:56.240 --> 00:51:06.280
company of crucial and Lexar um Micron just kind of went yeah

00:51:02.960 --> 00:51:08.640
you know what um compared to the

00:51:06.280 --> 00:51:16.079
lucrative business of selling flash to companies like Amazon and

00:51:11.280 --> 00:51:18.559
Google um selling like SD cards is a

00:51:16.079 --> 00:51:23.799
Fool's errand due to those low margins and low volumes all that packaging and

00:51:20.839 --> 00:51:27.920
all that marketing involved in what this tiny transaction this is stupid so

00:51:25.799 --> 00:51:32.520
they're just like forget it and they are shutting down their removable storage

00:51:30.559 --> 00:51:37.079
retail business I hope they don't shut down crucial because their Facebook page

00:51:35.119 --> 00:51:40.880
is hilarious other products that are being killed off include USB flash

00:51:39.040 --> 00:51:46.720
drives memory card readers and storage drives which honestly I'm kind of not

00:51:43.720 --> 00:51:49.400
stoked on because the only prograde card

00:51:46.720 --> 00:51:53.920
readers that we could find are those Lexar ones that we're using our sco up a

00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:57.799
few I'm not even kidding we we might even do that although I did run into

00:51:55.880 --> 00:52:02.240
someone at PEX that's making something that looks really Pro and that has SSD

00:52:00.160 --> 00:52:06.680
and red Meg versions as well they're like rack mount and you can and their

00:52:04.319 --> 00:52:10.400
modular so I'll look into those they run off Thunderbolt too and our ingest

00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:13.960
stations are Thunderbolt so we'll see yeah but if that doesn't pan out or if

00:52:12.440 --> 00:52:18.880
that product sucks Lexar is all I kind of got um but

00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:22.520
the decision was made as part of the company's ongoing efforts to focus on

00:52:20.839 --> 00:52:27.200
its increasing opportunities in higher value markets and

00:52:24.119 --> 00:52:29.160
channels so basically like Lexar

00:52:27.200 --> 00:52:34.559
products suck it uh they are exploring opportunities

00:52:32.720 --> 00:52:39.240
to sell all or part of the Lexar business but what that means is

00:52:36.480 --> 00:52:43.400
basically that Lexar won't be Lexar yeah in much the same way that the sharp is

00:52:41.680 --> 00:52:47.680
trying to get their brand back in North America because they're actually suing

00:52:45.160 --> 00:52:55.040
over high sense I believe it's high sense I'm going to double check before I

00:52:49.720 --> 00:52:58.040
like disar a brand um sharp high sense

00:52:55.040 --> 00:53:01.119
lawsuit I think yeah yeah sharp saying

00:52:58.040 --> 00:53:04.000
that high sense's shoddily manufactured

00:53:01.119 --> 00:53:07.440
TVs are hurting their brand image what even though they were the ones who sold

00:53:05.400 --> 00:53:11.359
the business unit to high sense they sold it can they do anything about that

00:53:09.359 --> 00:53:16.359
I don't know but it explains you know how we go to CES and we're like what the

00:53:14.119 --> 00:53:22.839
heck is high sense yeah why are they even here yeah now I finally get it

00:53:20.160 --> 00:53:28.520
yes um what else what else we got for this week there's not a ton there 's

00:53:26.680 --> 00:53:31.280
that weird Canada thing which might affect other people so I don't know we

00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:35.640
might want to talk about that there's the tech PowerUp thing I'm wondering on

00:53:33.160 --> 00:53:39.799
your opinion on that actually okay I'm sorry I really haven't looked into this

00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:44.799
oh and there's um it's there's not a ton to look into it you can look into it

00:53:41.680 --> 00:53:46.640
really quick so um should I start on it

00:53:44.799 --> 00:53:50.799
sure having not read it uh was posted on the Forum by eyes can't see over 24 FPS

00:53:49.119 --> 00:53:55.680
and that was the only way we were going to get me to say those words Al together

00:53:53.640 --> 00:54:00.799
in that order very very funny you know that's going to get you gigantic troll

00:53:58.040 --> 00:54:04.640
like really tightly clipped I know um and the original article here is from

00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:11.599
delited tech.com which I've actually never heard of what's delited tech.com I

00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:15.319
don't know wow this looks like a very

00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:19.280
small site and I'm I'm not hating or

00:54:15.319 --> 00:54:22.599
anything um but basically the

00:54:19.280 --> 00:54:25.559
controversy is over a tech

00:54:22.599 --> 00:54:30.599
PowerUp article that appeared to be an article anyway that was a comparison

00:54:27.720 --> 00:54:36.960
between AMD's radon rx560 and NVIDIA's GTX 1050 but that was actually an AMD ad

00:54:34.799 --> 00:54:40.280
the article reads like a review with no disclaimers within the article itself

00:54:38.559 --> 00:54:46.200
that it comes from AMD or is sponsored by AMD the only ad markers on the page

00:54:43.319 --> 00:54:49.760
were advertorial by AMD off to the side on the top right and the author being

00:54:48.160 --> 00:54:55.400
named advertorial the article was posted

00:54:52.799 --> 00:55:02.559
directly in the review section of the site our Forum members apparently

00:54:59.480 --> 00:55:04.119
disagree as to whether or not AMD

00:55:02.559 --> 00:55:08.880
crossed the line I don't know why it wasn't linked but here's the actual

00:55:07.640 --> 00:55:15.160
thing if you want go okay so let's pull let's pull up the article here this does

00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:20.760
look like an article so they're sponsored right there yeah advertorial

00:55:18.520 --> 00:55:24.400
by AMD okay this might be uh looks like it's been updated a little bit this

00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:24.400
might be

00:55:25.119 --> 00:55:30.720
updated huh when I first saw this I I didn't check

00:55:29.000 --> 00:55:35.720
for each individual location but when I first saw this I was not oh it says

00:55:33.359 --> 00:55:39.880
sponsored right there content by MD okay okay it looks like a few things have

00:55:37.680 --> 00:55:43.200
been added

00:55:44.559 --> 00:55:50.720
huh interesting so did they run their own

00:55:48.839 --> 00:55:54.520
marks current in its current state what do you what do you think about the

00:55:52.039 --> 00:55:58.240
transparency okay so and it's current

00:55:59.119 --> 00:56:05.359
State the deled tech site doesn't seem to have

00:56:02.960 --> 00:56:07.559
huh oh I think there's a picture on there

00:56:08.160 --> 00:56:14.640
actually so yeah advertorial by AMD

00:56:11.520 --> 00:56:16.280
above the here let's go uh let's go over

00:56:14.640 --> 00:56:21.160
to deleted tech for a second here and show what it used to look like you just move to my oh no mine's screwed up yeah

00:56:19.480 --> 00:56:27.760
yours is screwed up right now sorry so you're going to want to this one yeah

00:56:23.960 --> 00:56:31.760
yeah okay so here's what it used to look

00:56:27.760 --> 00:56:33.720
like the uh the writer was advertorial

00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:38.520
it didn't say sponsored under the 560 logo say sponsored under the logo here

00:56:36.440 --> 00:56:43.319
and it said introduction as though it was an introduction to something yeah

00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:47.799
but it did say avoral by MD over on the right so it wasn't like impossible to

00:56:45.720 --> 00:56:53.240
figure out what it was but I think the word

00:56:48.960 --> 00:56:56.240
advertorial is um a little misleading

00:56:53.240 --> 00:56:57.280
because in my mind an advertorial okay

00:56:56.240 --> 00:57:02.480
so it's like edutainment right yeah it's inherently

00:57:00.119 --> 00:57:06.760
educational entertaining SS advert and tutorial and it's not a tutorial this

00:57:05.039 --> 00:57:11.119
isn't a tutorial at all here let's read it we'll read it together it's not like

00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:14.559
how to use AMD graphics cards advertorial by AMD last year AMD

00:57:13.079 --> 00:57:18.079
introduced the first Polaris generation of gpus with it AMD delivered many new

00:57:16.640 --> 00:57:23.319
features along with great performance in the latest games and greatly improved

00:57:19.839 --> 00:57:26.880
efficiency like that is not a

00:57:23.319 --> 00:57:28.760
tutorial um be it orts or AA titles best

00:57:26.880 --> 00:57:33.000
value for the money at around €100 consistently smooth animation in popular

00:57:30.520 --> 00:57:35.920
games at 1080 avoids performance pit Falls caused by running out of video

00:57:34.280 --> 00:57:41.599
memory due to 4 gig models being available okay none of that's a tutorial

00:57:38.920 --> 00:57:44.079
for only around €100 the radon rx560 outperforms the competition at this

00:57:43.079 --> 00:57:50.039
price point while showing the significant difference of upgrading from a previous generation is this their own

00:57:47.039 --> 00:57:52.160
benchmarks so that's honestly where

00:57:50.039 --> 00:57:55.960
that's that's the one that I don't like um radon chill hold on hold on radon

00:57:54.280 --> 00:57:59.960
chill saves power during games it does this in these kinds of titles there is

00:57:58.599 --> 00:58:05.520
no tutorial oh editorial not tutorial

00:58:05.839 --> 00:58:11.160
editorial is it

00:58:11.240 --> 00:58:15.920
interesting good call twitch chat okay I

00:58:14.280 --> 00:58:22.640
did not know that I always thought that an advertorial was an ad that was like

00:58:19.640 --> 00:58:25.760
how to use it I thought it was is what I

00:58:22.640 --> 00:58:28.520
think an advertorial should be by the

00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:34.240
way because I have no problem with that in fact that's something that I've been

00:58:30.359 --> 00:58:36.799
doing for years is like here's how to

00:58:34.240 --> 00:58:40.599
water cool your computer brought to you by some parts that you can use to do

00:58:38.880 --> 00:58:46.799
that but but all of these things I'm saying still apply to other stuff an

00:58:43.920 --> 00:58:50.559
advertorial the like proper definition is a newspaper or Magazine advertisement

00:58:48.839 --> 00:58:54.599
don't worry too much about that giving information about a product in the style

00:58:52.559 --> 00:58:58.200
of an editorial or objective journalistic article

00:58:56.559 --> 00:59:04.000
okay so that's actually fairly transparent okay all right fine I don't

00:59:01.160 --> 00:59:08.240
like yeah so there's a couple things here

00:59:06.440 --> 00:59:13.000
number one is I think they're going to need to change says testing done by AMD

00:59:10.920 --> 00:59:17.559
in the last paragraph yeah I think it should say that on the chart I think the

00:59:15.039 --> 00:59:24.200
testing shouldn't be done by AMD for one thing um so even when we do so we've

00:59:20.440 --> 00:59:28.160
actually done a um here the closest

00:59:24.200 --> 00:59:30.079
thing that we've done was uh the te okay

00:59:28.160 --> 00:59:36.359
guys the testing done by AMD should be on the chart here this is the closest

00:59:33.559 --> 00:59:41.359
thing we've done actually with AMD oh unskippable ads we have unskippable ads

00:59:39.039 --> 00:59:47.640
they enable after a while so they're on our um our back catalog oh do we even do

00:59:45.079 --> 00:59:54.400
that no it's something that our MCN does automatically oh yeah okay can you build

00:59:51.559 --> 00:59:59.280
a 4K gaming PC for under $1,000 oh for some reason we're not

00:59:56.640 --> 01:00:03.559
looking at the beginning of it so we say something something something something

01:00:00.559 --> 01:00:06.280
something AMD challenged us to do this

01:00:03.559 --> 01:00:12.839
blah blah blah hold on here we go is this the sponsored by AMD call out no I

01:00:09.760 --> 01:00:14.319
don't think so um but this was uh this

01:00:12.839 --> 01:00:21.079
was actually before some of those guidelines came into place and we uh let

01:00:18.240 --> 01:00:26.359
me see where else anyway I say it either two or three times in the video

01:00:23.799 --> 01:00:33.160
verbally um when we get to the benchmarks because AMD's argument to us

01:00:29.280 --> 01:00:37.359
to for doing this piece was that you can

01:00:33.160 --> 01:00:40.440
play popular Esports titles at 60 FPS on

01:00:37.359 --> 01:00:43.799
their affordable for at 4k on their

01:00:40.440 --> 01:00:45.440
affordable all AMD machine we ran these

01:00:43.799 --> 01:00:50.799
benchmarks ourselves and we told them we're not

01:00:48.119 --> 01:00:55.520
doing this video unless we can validate this ourselves yeah and that would have

01:00:52.960 --> 01:01:01.520
meant not taking the budget that happened

01:00:57.839 --> 01:01:04.520
letting AMD run their own

01:01:01.520 --> 01:01:07.599
benchmarks yes I think strictly speaking

01:01:04.520 --> 01:01:11.520
that does make it exactly as much of an

01:01:07.599 --> 01:01:14.319
advertorial then as just an opinion but

01:01:11.520 --> 01:01:20.160
an editorial again and maybe you can hear want to be my definition man for a

01:01:16.240 --> 01:01:24.799
second here editorial my understanding

01:01:20.160 --> 01:01:28.319
means opinion and facts graphs and

01:01:24.799 --> 01:01:30.720
charts are not not opinions a newspaper

01:01:28.319 --> 01:01:34.720
article written by or on behalf of an editor that gives an opinion on a

01:01:32.680 --> 01:01:39.640
topical issue so really that's where the line

01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:45.000
gets crossed for me because the disclosure is not quite good enough uh

01:01:42.280 --> 01:01:49.680
it should be in the title uh sponsored should be in the actual title

01:01:47.440 --> 01:01:53.160
of the article uh according to like FTC guidelines like that actually needs to

01:01:51.119 --> 01:02:00.160
get done um all of this stuff is quite a bit

01:01:55.599 --> 01:02:03.200
better Now adoral by AMD but in my

01:02:00.160 --> 01:02:05.480
opinion these graphs should have either

01:02:03.200 --> 01:02:09.520
been run by tech power up or they shouldn't be here and it should just be

01:02:07.799 --> 01:02:13.079
an opinion at the very least in my opinion it needs to be very clear on the

01:02:11.119 --> 01:02:17.480
graphs that these are graphs from the company and then personally that would

01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:20.200
just make me not care and I'd move on people are saying the graphs serve as

01:02:18.760 --> 01:02:25.240
evidence for the opinion of the author but that's exactly it then it isn't an

01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:30.559
editorial then it's not an opinion you can't say in my opinion this graphics

01:02:27.960 --> 01:02:35.400
card runs faster when you actually have fact I mean it's the whole blurry line

01:02:31.960 --> 01:02:37.839
between facts and opinion these days but

01:02:35.400 --> 01:02:45.119
once it's been quantitatively measured in a way that is reproducible

01:02:40.799 --> 01:02:48.400
and defensible and adheres to the

01:02:45.119 --> 01:02:52.839
scientific method once it's Quantified

01:02:48.400 --> 01:02:57.839
it isn't an opinion anymore and a graph

01:02:52.839 --> 01:02:57.839
inherently suggests that it has been

01:02:57.880 --> 01:03:03.680
Quantified people are saying but AMD is the author that's fine but it still

01:03:01.799 --> 01:03:05.880
isn't an editorial and therefore isn't an

01:03:06.240 --> 01:03:13.000
advertorial so yeah

01:03:11.400 --> 01:03:18.200
um huh okay I mean as long as it's

01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:22.599
disclosed it's sort of up to them and their relationship with their viewers uh

01:03:20.200 --> 01:03:28.599
for our part we do do sponsored content we've done sponsored content for years

01:03:25.279 --> 01:03:31.079
we say when it sponsored

01:03:28.599 --> 01:03:36.920
content I would love to say that we've never used anyone's numbers we've shown

01:03:34.279 --> 01:03:39.839
slides with a manufacturer's numbers generally speaking that would be before

01:03:38.359 --> 01:03:43.720
we get an opportunity to show our own numbers like at a launch event or when

01:03:41.920 --> 01:03:47.480
it's being first unveiled at CES for example yeah um but then it's usually

01:03:45.920 --> 01:03:51.480
clearly stated that that's their numbers but it's clearly stated that it is someone else's numbers not quite but

01:03:50.200 --> 01:03:54.960
probably almost every time that I've done that I've been like but we'll have

01:03:53.359 --> 01:03:58.760
to see when we can get it back into the office for testing of our own I mean

01:03:57.000 --> 01:04:03.319
with over 3,000 videos uploaded I don't want to say we've never shown anybody

01:04:00.319 --> 01:04:04.680
else's numbers but generally speaking

01:04:03.319 --> 01:04:08.359
that's where we draw our line clear disclosure and running our own

01:04:06.680 --> 01:04:13.240
validation against the claims of the manufacturer yeah in this case I can't

01:04:10.880 --> 01:04:18.319
speak to their due diligence uh behind the scenes except to say that this graph

01:04:16.920 --> 01:04:25.119
doesn't look like it was produced by them it looks like it was produced by AMD for all I know they ran the

01:04:21.720 --> 01:04:27.520
numbers but I I don't don't have a way

01:04:25.119 --> 01:04:31.119
of that performance by AMD oh no that's right it does down at the very bottom

01:04:28.720 --> 01:04:35.319
yeah uh testing done by AMD performance Labs March 1st 2017 using a core

01:04:35.599 --> 01:04:43.839
i76700k oh boy

01:04:39.160 --> 01:04:45.480
um yeah so I'm not going to say look

01:04:43.839 --> 01:04:50.079
sponsored content shouldn't exist I'm just going to say it needs to be clearly

01:04:47.039 --> 01:04:54.079
disclosed and for me

01:04:50.079 --> 01:04:54.079
personally um

01:04:55.799 --> 01:05:01.200
I'm very careful about any claims that are

01:04:58.960 --> 01:05:05.400
made in our publication that I couldn't stand behind

01:05:04.279 --> 01:05:11.720
whether I was the one who ran the numbers or whether it was my idea or whether it was someone else's idea um

01:05:09.279 --> 01:05:15.240
even in sponsored content and it's up to tech power up to manage their

01:05:13.640 --> 01:05:20.720
relationship with their audience and their trust with their audience um in

01:05:18.960 --> 01:05:28.160
terms of how they want to proceed with this

01:05:23.359 --> 01:05:30.000
there yeah interesting one more topic um

01:05:28.160 --> 01:05:35.000
I'm kind of done okay yeah that's boring that's boring oh

01:05:33.200 --> 01:05:39.440
okay this is kind of cool pet yeah yeah coaxial gamer posted this on the for

01:05:36.720 --> 01:05:47.240
original article from overclock 3d. net tashiba produces the world's first 4 bit

01:05:42.720 --> 01:05:50.240
per cell so that's qlc nand flash memory

01:05:47.240 --> 01:05:52.279
so the endurance on this stuff will suck

01:05:50.240 --> 01:05:57.160
um like we're talking a handful of right Cycles

01:05:54.839 --> 01:06:05.440
compared to what SLC would have been capable of if it still existed but um

01:06:00.559 --> 01:06:08.480
great for write once read many many

01:06:05.440 --> 01:06:10.720
times kinds of applications because it

01:06:08.480 --> 01:06:16.480
will be really cheap so we're talking capacities of up to 96 gigabyt of

01:06:13.160 --> 01:06:20.079
storage per die allowing Toshiba to

01:06:16.480 --> 01:06:22.039
create a 1.5 terab SSD package with a 16

01:06:20.079 --> 01:06:27.640
die stacked architecture so they're going to demo it at the 2017 flash

01:06:23.839 --> 01:06:29.920
Summit in August uh there's x299 boards

01:06:27.640 --> 01:06:35.480
bad vrm cooling oh yeah that's a big sort of thing I think we did tease that

01:06:32.079 --> 01:06:36.880
so uh yeah uh we should probably talk

01:06:35.480 --> 01:06:41.559
about it I've seen this guy's videos before I think you pronounced the

01:06:38.559 --> 01:06:44.440
channel derau yep der I met him yeah yes

01:06:41.559 --> 01:06:50.440
I've good videos actually but um der posted a video uh showing that the vrms

01:06:46.640 --> 01:06:52.799
on an x299 board were reaching 100 degre

01:06:50.440 --> 01:06:58.240
and the single 8 Pin connectors for the power supply can hit 60° when over

01:06:55.599 --> 01:07:04.400
talking the 10 core models so here's derau good guy Pro overclocker um

01:07:01.760 --> 01:07:08.960
actually makes the derau delting tool which he gave us one of nice which

01:07:06.000 --> 01:07:15.599
pretty pretty sick yeah um and he has some serious concerns about x299 and how

01:07:13.359 --> 01:07:19.319
much time the motherboard manufacturers had to work on their designs to make

01:07:17.160 --> 01:07:23.119
sure that they were cooled correctly and not just that but um if you're

01:07:21.960 --> 01:07:30.240
interested in that kind of stuff go watch his video he does good stuff but given that the motherboard manufacturers

01:07:26.520 --> 01:07:33.119
also got blindsided by any CPUs with a

01:07:30.240 --> 01:07:36.359
core count over 12 it's not just a matter of being rushed but also a matter

01:07:34.680 --> 01:07:41.279
of not having enough information potentially to design a board that is

01:07:38.640 --> 01:07:46.720
actually capable of handling this to be fair he was testing with one of 10 yes

01:07:44.000 --> 01:07:52.319
the 10 cor models but yeah so it so it can't get any better it can only get

01:07:48.839 --> 01:07:54.319
worse is sort of the point yeah okay

01:07:52.319 --> 01:08:00.680
there's there's one more topic we can gloss over it a little bit but want to

01:07:56.240 --> 01:08:05.039
some people information if no

01:08:00.680 --> 01:08:06.400
um Peta ransomware okay um I do really

01:08:05.039 --> 01:08:14.480
want to give a call out for the guy on the Forum that posted this thread WM

01:08:09.720 --> 01:08:16.880
groom AK has done a very very good job

01:08:14.480 --> 01:08:22.480
of keeping this up to date with really good article linking really good quoting

01:08:18.960 --> 01:08:24.520
really good updates um condensing big

01:08:22.480 --> 01:08:29.359
updates on other sites down into easy digestible things so if you're

01:08:26.279 --> 01:08:32.440
interested in the world of viruses and

01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:34.400
hacking and ransomware and wipers and

01:08:32.440 --> 01:08:40.600
everything else definitely go check out this thread I just post it in the chat

01:08:36.080 --> 01:08:42.000
awesome um and there's a lot of crazy

01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:46.080
information in there there's there's a bit of a developing story yeah so you

01:08:44.040 --> 01:08:48.799
can maybe if we cover this now and someone watches the show in three days

01:08:47.400 --> 01:08:54.120
it's not going to be up to dat all our notes are wrong and not because James is

01:08:51.679 --> 01:08:57.560
a bad person but because it has literally all changed it's been changing

01:08:56.040 --> 01:09:02.679
since he made his notes so so so go check out that thread it's being updated

01:08:59.440 --> 01:09:05.239
like it it was last updated like

01:09:02.679 --> 01:09:09.920
slightly over an hour ago y like after the show was even supposed to start

01:09:07.480 --> 01:09:15.640
technically before the show started but yeah um it it's it's parading as

01:09:12.799 --> 01:09:19.960
ransomware it's actually a wiper uh apparently the email account has been

01:09:18.080 --> 01:09:23.839
closed by the email hosting service that was hosting it so even if you try to pay

01:09:22.239 --> 01:09:28.120
to get your thing back they can't receive the email so not going to be

01:09:25.880 --> 01:09:32.719
able to give you a key to unlock your device like it's it's it's a mess right

01:09:31.480 --> 01:09:40.199
now and if you're really interested in that stuff I would check out that thread it's it's very well up to date it even

01:09:37.600 --> 01:09:44.319
includes like the Bitcoin wallet address that people are sending money to so you

01:09:42.080 --> 01:09:48.400
can see like how much money they've made so far and everything like it's yeah

01:09:45.960 --> 01:09:53.040
