okay guys so I did say we were going to be 5 minutes late today and we were only
5 minutes late today I'm pretty sure the audio is working I I hope the audio is
working if the audio is not working I will actually cry like I will I will cry
uh we're going to check the twitch chat to make sure the audio is working
welcome everyone to the Live lonus tech tip show we are here for all of your
enjoyment and of course our own enjoyment because slick loves nothing
more after he has spent the day filming with me than
to what yeah I didn't say all right it's
flickering flicker on the screen I don't
know our feed looks okay it's flickering
whatever okay so we haven't had a chance to eat dinner yet tonight I hope you
guys forgive us for being a little bit slow kind of getting into the show here
because it has been hope kind of a rough day so I had a
really cool meeting with the probably the most one of the most important
people I've ever had a chance to meet this morning so I had to be at work
early I had to wear a dress shirt
which just about destroy no dress pants
shiny shoes you we shoes I wore shoes I
did not wear sandals to work today wow the funny thing too is I even wore my
sand when AMD SS a group of six people I
literally don't think I've ever seen including a VP I wore sandals I wore my
sandals I was like guys I dressed up for you I wore a dress shirt today
like what's the problem I can't remember oh yeah we're watching it just SEC just
SEC oh for L what's the problem
jeez okay we're good now right guys
let's get that twitch chat going again cuz you guys you guys are you guys are
fast to help us get that fixed all right yeah BR on yeah okay so the kind of
things that we should have sort of you know done by now but okay to give you
guys some idea what do you think the speed I averaged on the way back here from Richmond
was no cops watching
right uh I don't even know like just
ridiculous so we made it all the way from the NC headquarters in Richmond
sports mode in like 29 minutes to my
house which is trust me not a good
thing anyway so
right sorry slick always has dinner he
ate separately that time so guys don't worry about it
uh right so my meeting today was with like the most important person ever who
is like a like a global director of
marketing for Samsung ssds or something
like that like just like crazy crazy stuff so I wore shiny shoes I had like a
shirt and like pants and a belt and like
I did my hair today but you can't really tell anymore cuz it's just a total mess
but uh yeah so that was really exciting spent like 2 and 1/2 hours in that
meeting just you know marketing strategies and stuff for those of you
watching the live stream who don't know I'm a product manager at NC so that's
like my real job um I don't remember
where I was going with this you were just talking about oh yeah it's been a
long day I had to go in early right because when it's someone like that and
they're making time like they he flew from Korea right right so he's like
making time to like get on a plane from Korea and come here and come to our
office office and talk to me so it's like if I won't go in like you know half
an hour or an hour early to work then that's like the rudest thing ever so I'm
like yeah yeah yeah no no no problem and then so I was at work at sort of 9:30ish
today which means that by the time we're
done this live stream it'll have been like a 13-hour workday which is sort of
sweet um we filmed a really cool episode today though maybe slick can tell you
about it while I try and take a couple bites of food uh we built a computer in
the ft P3 mini and that's a pretty sick
case actually Sil most Silverstone cases are pretty epic but for a small case
this computer is really cool we fit um we fit a 670 in it and for its
size if you like actually go and look at a picture of it for its size that's
ridiculously impressive so that was a really fun build what else did we get in
there what else did we get in there we did a lot of unboxings no I mean in the
case in the case uh what's the name with
that the we put the little ASUS ITX
Deluxe board but I don't remember its actual name p77 I Deluxe I think I just ID Deluxe
okay yeah the ASUS p8 z77 I Deluxe uh
3570k although we could have used
3770k we just had a 3570k um SSD of course uh crucial
M4 load temps you guys were like uh what
were they like for the CPU it was around 28 and idle was 28 yeah oh load temps
load temps I think were around 50° yeah and then on the GPU it was like 70° like
totally normal temps one fan in the system cuz we put a water cooling in
water cooler in there well there was there was the air penetrator and then
there was the fan that came with the water cooler M you didn't put the fan
with no you're not supposed to oh okay there's no room for it okay you use the
air penetrator at the bottom of the case and then even though it doesn't quite
align with the radiator it's very directed air flow so it goes right through the radiator anyway like the
case is designed that I thought it just was like basically stack f it wasn't
who's asking if Rose will is a good case manufacturer on the twitch chat like
come on guys Rose how is Rose will a manufacturer of
anything is Rose will a good case manufacturer and why is the uh all
messed up I don't I don't know what's going on here I'll have to fix that
later um yeah Rosell doesn't make anything Rosell is new eggs like uh no
name brand so it's like whatever OEM
stuff and then they put Rosewell on
it so there you go what else we filmed
today uh like I said a lot of unboxings
okay for NCI actives I don't really remember was it just the F3 I think that
was it I think we were going to try and do uh h100 versus h100i versus we
started that that's why we unboxed the h80i I think and then the thermal right
and you're right the thermal silver Arrow uh what is it called Extreme M I
think the yeah thermite Silver Arrow extreme which looks amazing the fans
look a little weird but it looks it looks amazing what the color schem of
those fans red and it was like red borderline pink and then for the like
casing of the fan and then like bright fluorescent orange for the blades which
is a little bit little bit out there little bit extreme I guess it's definitely extreme definitely extreme
definitely extreme um and then I worked on a gaunlet node
episode but we weren't done that had some problems with
wireless not with the gauntlet wir excuse me
no 7 H V2 that's not even aair someone
says I know far too little about the business it seems I'm not sure what
business he's talking about but it's been my entire job for
like 5 years so I think I know
something mhm okay my hand's quite a bit
better I still can't close it I that's all I can do for trying to close my hand
but it works now so that's
good okay so why don't we do a couple Twitter questions we've got some pretty
good discussion topics for tonight we're just like really hungry
so
sorry all right let's head over to
Twitter let's see if this is going to work that GNA work yeah see that's not
even the right why did we have it oh I remember okay remove for the videos yeah
because the last time we used this we were doing like a totally totally
totally different thing and it was uh not not Twitter and there we go so now
we have Twitter and you guys can enjoy
that with us and I my phone is going bananas like just absolutely bananas
because of all the uh all the tweets that are that it is exper experiencing
right now there we go all right so
question number one from Paul F could you beat up slick do you think a slick
could beat ASUS's JJ in a straight up
fist fight I would like to hear Slick's take on this I don't really I've seen JJ
like twice I don't I have no idea come on come on no think think think more in
terms of like does he have the mental toughness think like a
fighter I don't know him I don't know JJ
I can't just say I'd be be able to beat some guy if I don't even know him I think he'd have the endurance he would I
think he would have the endurance Advantage because you look at how long
JJ can talk about the least interesting possible aspect of an isus
motherboard like I swear like 45 minutes on like one F control
feature I think you just have to keep hitting the guy he'd be like uh what was
that fighter that would just let you hit him until you retired and then he'd knock you out I don't I I can't remember
I can't remember his name but like that guy you think he's like that style of fighter I think he's that style of
fighter because I think that like his enthusiasm level for like what he's
doing like okay if he wasn't interested in the fight I think he could take you
or I think you could take him but if he was like passionate about like like
destroying you I think he would just like just I think he'd tank it might
might take like an hour or three yeah like a three-hour fight like if it was
done in rounds and there was like a time limit I think you could get him
okay next next Twitter question for the night what are your thoughts on the
hybrid fluid Dynamic VGA coolers honestly I don't think I've heard of
those hybrid fluid Dynamic VGA coolers I haven't found any that I like what are
they they're basically like talk at the camera though um okay I haven't seen one
in a really long time but if I remember correctly they're kind of like h100 h80
that like like Clos Loop water cooler style but it works for your VGA
you can see why I'm not a hug oh yeah those are dumb yeah yeah those are those
are really expensive and they perform
better than obviously they perform better than an air cooler on a graphics
card I mean the graphics card form factors like PCI cards were never
intended to be like double triple wide and have like coolers on them it was
never never supposed I'm just going to turn my phone off because the uh the
tweets are driving me absolutely crazy there we go phone off um because
something right they were never designed to have coolers in that kind of a sort
of space like coolers are supposed to blow fan air toward something not like
down at its surface and then sort of toward the back of it it doesn't make
sense it doesn't work that way so um so
yeah they'd obviously be better but you have a couple of drawbacks so number one
is that tubing wise you have to have long tubing to get that that cooler to
somewhere in your case that makes sense unless you have and it's pretty much
always going like it's coming from the bottom of the
gra yeah so it'll be like a total mess that way then I mean personally the
graphics card isn't priority number one for me for water cooling so then you
don't have room to mount your CPU radiator plus yeah they're just they're
expensive they don't have wide compatibility they only work with one
card ever usually for the pricing that I've seen I would much rather just do my
own Loop yes that's what I've found so I
don't really see them applicable that's why I've never really been interested and not really cared cuz in all
situations your own Loop is awesome but sometimes it's not worth the cost then
if you're going to spend the cost on something like that you might as well just which you're just going to throw
away when you're done with it yeah when you can just buy a new block for a loop
and then there you go like if you get a new graphics code all right moving along
in our Twitter questions here let's see what else we got Wilson asks how do you
pronounce ASUS all right so ASUS yeah
ASUS ASUS as long as it's Seuss Seuss
like Dr Seuss not like sus or not like
Pegasus so a lot of people have made the argument to me on Twitter because I
posted a video made by made byus uh
where they it's like a really cute little thing where like two girls go up
to like two guys at a at a bar and they're like hey do you want to see our
asses we love asses something like that and then do you want to see them and the
guys are like yeah and they pull out notebooks and they're ASUS notebooks and
the guys are like Oh you mean ASUS and the girls are like oh yeah yeah so it's
it's funny because it's ASUS's subtle way of telling people stop pronouncing
the name of our company wrong just stop
stop doing it and I had a bunch of people still arguing with me on Twitter
No No it's it's as Asis Asis like
Pegasus and because that's what it shortened from because the company used to be called Pegasus and and um you know
you know it's funny almost all of those guys had like really cheeseball names to
start with you know what DFI used to stand for I just always knew as a DFI
okay well at the end it was designed for Innovation now it's uh or before before
that it was Diamond flower International it's like who calls their
computer component company Diamond flower makes no sense uh LG Life's good
you know what that used to be right yeah you told me it was something yeah Lucky Gold Star
it's like this is my lucky gold star washer and dryer smile and then you get
like you know the uh the shine on the on the teeth it's like well no so um so
yeah so so ASUS changed to something that sort of didn't sound like a
unicorn what a pegasus is all right
Linus and Slick weird question what are stylists made out of BC I can't use any
heat touch items I use a head pointer to use gadgets I think he means like
oh what are styluses made out of because I can't use any heat touch
items I use a head pointer to use
gadgets um okay well let's go with the part of
that question that I think I can answer most styluses are made out of
plastic there must be something different though because if you just press a piece of plastic against its
stylus reactive screen it doesn't go off okay they must be made of something else
you know what I don't know great
question sorry we can't help you sorry yeah Kelvin asks lonus what do you think
about WD red drives been reading some reviews and some people have DOA for
those of you who don't know what that means it means Dead on Arrival also can
you review Western digitals 4 terb black hard drive um my thoughts on my thoughts
on WD red drives is that we got four of them and none of them were DOA um also
doas don't necessarily indicate anything about the quality of the product they
can just indicate that someone was unlucky um I mean look at it this way if
you make a 100,000 of
something and a hundred of them die you got a 100 dead drives out there
that seems like a lot but in terms of the actual failure rate that would be
like that's actually pretty good 0.1% yeah that's pretty good right so even if
a thousand of them died that would be a 1% RMA
rate but that means because remember satis customers whose hard drive is in
their computer just working they're not going to say anything most likely would
you go on a forum and talk about how your hard drive Works no I've gone on forums and talk
about how certain parts have worked and how they've worked really well but not a hard drive not a hard drive definitely
not okay cuz if you did that I'd have to smack you yeah yeah yeah okay yeah it's
like guys cuz you know it's funny every once in a while like on the ncx Forum or
like Hardware conu Forum or whatever else someone comes in and they're like
never buy Seagate I bought three Seagate hard drives and two of them died and uh
I don't think I've ever seen anyone come on a forum and say buy Seagate hard
drives I have six and they're all
alive no definitely not so guys you got to take every bit of information you get
with a grain of salt it just doesn't work that way if someone's like myga
video card died after 2 years and my waranty was only one year they screwed
me it's like no that's bad luck it's
really bad luck I mean if you'd registered your card you'd have gotten
extra one year warranty anyway but it's bad luck you got a bad card it's not
it's it doesn't mean EVGA cards are terrible in fact pretty much everyone's
graphics cards are especially reference cards pretty much the same quality
anyway so so yeah I mean I get a kick
out of it when people are like you know why are hisis cards more expensive
they're like oh they're better quality and I'm like okay not the reference
cards they're pretty much the same for everybody although some cards
lightning um classified like ones where
they're really overbuilding the card those ones are
better what else we got um someone's asking me to post on Twitter that I'm
streaming at the moment but I can't imagine that it didn't go to Twitter
when my YouTube video went live so I
don't know if that's live yet yeah it looks like that's live there's a few people that have looked at it and uh
almost oh that's funny look at this people don't even like me anymore this
guy's like I almost tuned out when you said slick wouldn't be on cuz I was
teasing them in the uh in the teaser and
uh I said slick wasn't going to be there cuz he was going to get our food and and
yeah apparently people don't even like me anymore whatever you guys I don't have
to take this in how many years do you recommend upgrading Hardware why you
feel this one I uh uh that's really
subjective depends what Hardware you have Hardware we're talking about if
it's a mechanical no I'm good actually okay if it's a mechanical
keyboard never never if you're happy
with it never uh if it's what about if it has Cheeto stains on it it has Cheeto
stains on it you might want to clean it it's mechanical keyboard so you can take all key caps off that shouldn't really
be a problem maybe stop eating so many Cheetos at your computer um yeah it
really depends what you have what device it is uh when you're not satisfied
anymore is your computer slow are you lagging in games are you below certain
acceptable threshold of FPS um are you out of storage you might want to buy
another hard drive uh or when something big and new comes along like ssds are
getting well below a dollar per gig right now especially on Black Friday
sales so if you don't have an SSD yet now might be a good time to buy that but
as for like graphics cards or CPUs it really depends what you have to start
with yeah good job slick you want find another question for us well that could
lead us into uh one of our discussion
topics you said that's fine I don't need to eat
anyway okay fine I'll find a how much RAM do you really need for
gaming not that much good question okay
yeah well how much is not that much come on man eight gigs you can buy an 8 gig
uh 8 gig kit for really really cheap just buy that and you'll be fine I saw
them NC had eight gig kits for $1 199.99 yeah like ridiculously cheap just go
with that you'll be fine for
gaming tell us more about the Forum you're working on sure actually let's
let's let's kick off our first discussion topic then fine okay so
that'll be the for wait do you want to do the other one first the one that you said that was a good lead into no that's
fine we can do the other one first it's okay no we'll go with his question you
said you wanted to do the other well this guy we pronounced this guy's name wrong last time you're fired that's
unfortunate for what is worth I warned you I told him I was going to fire him
on the live stream tonight did he did uh we pronounced this guy's name wrong
before he's I can't remember I'm trying to remember the Tweet he sent me one uh
it's Greek or something so vag 93 is back
yes but it's not vag it'll always be vad to me okay
um so you know what guys I want to
involve you in this part of the discussion he's got a pen and paper this
is getting serious um no no I'm not writing anything down
I'm actually writing down because I do those um here no I need to write down a
Time 927 Forum well yeah I wrote something
down but it's not because I'm writing down what they're saying so what I'm writing down is the
uh the time codes that I put under the video on YouTube so instead of actually
going through and watching the video because quite frankly he's very boring
and I have a I have a hard time watching a show that has him on it also ugly I
don't know what you people see um
it just makes it a little bit easier for me to put those in at the end um so
first of all uh the choice of V bulletin so I had quite a few people on Twitter
ask me why V bulletin because it costs 250 bucks it um is not free like phbv
and there's some other options as well so question answer number okay okay
no what I want you guys filling in on the twitch chat and Twitter right now is
what you guys want because there's a million Hardware forms like literally
probably a million Hardware forums what do you guys think would set apart a lus
tech tips forum and I'd love to take your feedback right now and maybe I will
even write some of it down no no I'll write some of it down
but we're both listening we're both here and between me and Slick
99% of the work on the Forum and the conceptualization is going to be done um
tell us what you want so why V bulletin V bulletin was chosen because I'm
familiar with it so I don't have to learn which is great because I have to
learn enough new things to do my job and it's tiresome um so I I don't have to
learn wow that's a really big
factor uh number two is with v bulletin
5 they have a pretty cool content management system that's completely
integrated into the forum so I want and you know reviews for example unboxings I
want to have a couple little pictures a a little short article I want to have a
way to drive traffic to this site where people can really engage in discussion
beyond the YouTube comments YouTube comments are fine and dandy but let's
face it for every sort of on YouTube in
general for every well-intentioned coherent individual there's maybe 10
morons and I think that my videos buck
that Trend I think for every 10 coherent individuals there's maybe one but
that doesn't change the fact that there's still that guy ruining it for everyone and YouTube is the ultimate
mainstream platform where everyone has a everyone watches videos on YouTube
absolutely everyone so I want to create a forum where we can weed out the one
moreon and we can just have really good discussions about tech I also want it to
be a noob friendly Forum I never ever
want to see a link to let me Google that for you not once if I see a link to let
me Google that for you I will ban you done because I want this to be somewhere
where you can actually ask a question and get an answer and have people be
respectful to each other so that's one problem that I have with a lot of the
Old Guard forums so one that I particularly have taken issue with over
the years is a super hardcore Enthusiast
Forum based out of the states where basically anyone who goes there just
gets treated like crap especially particular sections where people are not
helpful they tell people to you know go read the stickies or go do this and I
mean yeah people should read stickies but you can also be polite about
explaining why stickies are there and why you should read them and all that kind of stuff you could Point them to
the correct sticky for example so there's ways to be polite about it so um
I don't know slick what's what do you think we can contribute that someone
else doesn't already cuz you're he's a huge ocn guy yeah so what could we do
that oen doesn't do for example um oen
has its own community and I think from the live stream you guys talking in the
live stream you guys talking in the comments you guys talking on our Twitter's you guys commenting on each
other's posts on Twitter that happens a lot sometimes I don't even have answer a
question because there's a couple guys that seem to go to my Twitter a lot and just answer questions for me which is
kind of cool um yeah you want them to wipe your butt for you too what it's
like look at this guy he's all like oh yeah I don't even have to reply to my own Twitter anymore no it's cool because
they they like it's my viewer base knows what they're talking about they're so
lazy what do I even pay you for um I think it would be cool to have
somewhere for everyone to come together and talk about things amongst uh our
community so I think that's pretty cool um I think it would be cool for everyone
to show their own build logs and like we we should definitely have a build log
section and you can be like oh like if you're new you can be like oh I got to
this part of my build but I'm having problems with this and then instead of
just being it being like build logs where it's just epic and baller that's
awesome but I think the build log could also be a helpful section right it could
be like look at this this is weird what am I doing why is it wrong how can I fix
my cable management how can I fix my cable management is there any suggestions for how I have this laid out
um is this water loop good how is this going blah blah blah blah blah it could
be more of a helpful helpful space think that would be good I mean other things I
think that we can do with a forum that are really difficult to do with Twitter
and Facebook is we can take um we can take feedback on more complicated things
a lot more easily yeah so definitely oh my goodness I get so many questions on
Twitter that like if I answered it it would I would have to spam you like nine
times because 140 characters is just not enough so many of the times it's really
frustrating I get questions all the time where I'm just like this is not like
this is not the right medium for this question I can't do this properly right
now Twitter doesn't have adequate ways like for example I try to answer the
vast majority of my tweets and Twitter doesn't have good tools to show you like
hoot is a piece of garbage I don't even get me started on hoot what a horrible
piece of software considering the company's worth like millions and
millions now how are they worth millions of dollars they make one piece of
software for one social network that oh
anyway um so there's no way to track whether you've replied to something or
not if you're looking at it earlier in the can't find it again yes there's no
way to find stuff the search just doesn't work at all like you might as
well key in Google tweet about something and like try to remember something about
it because that's the best chance you have of finding that tweet
um so a forum would be a way for me to actually prioritize and keep track of
messages I mean uh YouTube YouTube private messages are another example of
this where I love to reply to YouTube private messages but honestly it's just
stupid and it's a waste of my time because of a couple things at least 30%
of people on YouTube have the uh uh
private message block enabled so unless you're on their contact list you can't
private message them so they'll message me and then I'll type out a reply for 10
minutes and then I'll click Send and they have it blocked and I'm like you
know what that's a waste of my time it just is and then the other thing is it
doesn't it doesn't um it doesn't archive
the previous parts of the conversation below your message I get so many private
messages on YouTube I might have to go back five pages to find the original
message you sent me and then figure out what I replied and then find your new
message just to figure out what you're even talking about because people will
be like um so so so they'll say something like oh lonus I'm shopping for
a monitor what's your suggestion and I'll send back this and then they'll say
oh well what about this meanwhile I have no idea what I suggested or what they
originally asked me or what it's for and it's just not helpful so a forum would
be a great thing for that any other sort
of off the top of your head before we get to some tweets um no I I like the
build log idea a lot of course everyone has build logs but I want to be more helpful based and I know a lot of people
have helpful kind of build logs but I just I don't know I think that would be cool and just bringing the community
together one place one yeah one place instead of having all like of course
these other different mediums will keep flowing but having a more permanent kind
of housing for everything would be really cool and just so you guys know I
don't have any intention at this time to put advertising on the for so just if
you're if you care about that it's not something that I'll be
trying to that I'll be trying to monetize in anyway oh wow 203 tweets
awesome uh in-depth tutorials that too
yeah yeah like like a lot of people ask
for the mineral oil guide mineral oil cooling guide and I still don't think
we'll do that but we could have a section on the Forum where people could
ask more specific questions instead of just the general how do I build a minor
computer cuz there's yeah I'm just not even going to get into it but if you had
like more specific questions or have any questions at all you could ask them
there and then I could like take my time and actually flush out answers that make
sense you know
what here's something I want to do a little bit differently from other guys
as well a lot of forms have up systems and
they'll have rankings for their users on the lineus tech tips Forum
rather than it being paced on how many posts or being based on sort of anything
honestly guys I think that every level
up in terms of your user status will be
yeah none of them will be it won't be a paid level up you can't pay for a level up you might be able to pay for you know
a custom avatar or something something something it does cost money to run a forum um but I think every level up will
actually be assigned by me you're slick and I don't know if I've talked to you
about this at all yet nope but what I want to do is I want to have rankings
for People based on really I mean we'll both be monitoring the form very
regularly so I want to have rankings that are based on are you contributing
how accurate as your advice I don't want someone on our Forum to have a tag that
says top contributor when that's just based on replying plus one or whatever
else I want it to be based on oh I saw
that guy make a really good reply to someone I go and check his post history
I make sure all the advice he's giving is accurate and awesome and all that
kind of stuff and then I can put like a
like a Linus approved advice sealed next to his post we should have individual
ones and yes lus approved slick approved uh diesel approved yeah so we can do
multiple tiers of rankings so that we can find a way to really differ no
matter how many posts you've made or haven't made really differentiate the
people who we see as top contributors right from the very start so you come in
you make 10 posts and they're awesome I would love to give you a better ranking
even though you haven't made a lot of posts you haven't been a member for a long time so that's another way where I
want to be really friendly to new members especially guys who are willing to be helpful we should we should we
should have that but I think there might also be room for like like seals like
those could be seals I don't know I think we should get viewer input from
this too but we could have like seals like
um no like the line of seal of Excellence or like the Slick seal of
Excellence or whatever start the league of lus the league of lus yeah LOL Yeah
well it's kind of already taken but whatever
man all right thank you for your commitment I
love your videos and Slick thank you is
slick ever G to have his own YouTube channel heaven forbid that guy's so ugly
so ugly I have to cover him up in the live stream look at this
guy slick L seems to make fun of you a
lot have you ever considered pimp slapping him it happen but rarely um
I'll be doing an unboxing of that microphone soon ASUS for
sure yeah you know what here's the thing about subreddit um subreddit will never
have direct control over we'll never be able to label our top contributors we'll
never be able to like no you you get like you get to be a mod of it and
whatever okay why am I driving traffic to their website no I know I'm just saying I'm just saying yeah um I cruise
around I'm not going to give it my username but I cruise around build a PC
and uh keepy boards and a bunch of other
uh Tech based subreddits that's pretty much all the subreddits that I follow
are Tech based subreddits but I I Cruiser own and I post again I'm not
going to say my name but yeah say my name say my name no one is
around I've never heard of a Vex
here my RAM choices are Kingston
corer I don't know mushkin gkill yeah
never heard of a vexer so sorry
H yeah that's probably a graphics card upgrade that'll help you the most no one
is talking are you guys
serious a Nick's missing the live stream because he's only on he's on
4G L plff Forum profit no we're not actually planning to profit from The
Forum but thank you I think he means profit as in like this is a good idea
not necessarily profit in financial ways oh I get it okay nice Team Liquid
sweatshirt slick thanks
if they're asking what is RAM just send those link to Wikipedia yeah don't that
well no one asks what RAM is though um okay so colors color schemes
use neutral colors on the background so text is easy to read okay that's
actually those are those are all that's all good input I'll look into that
Michael wants a test of knowledge to join a to to join the Forum Michael you
are automatically banned I think that was the point of making it Noob friendly
that there isn't a test of no there's no test we want everyone to be welcome at
the lus tech tips Forum except people who are sort of um what's it called
elitist
yeah acknowledging someone who knows a lot isn't a bad idea but just try I
think it's more trashing on people that we're trying to stay away
from you have to add a user rating system yep for
sure I will no we're not automatically Banning anyone who requests a build with
no input at all but what we will have is a stick saying what information we do
need and then we can refer them to that
um yeah we're definitely going to skin it um I don't know how much work we're
going to be able to put into the skin cuz like I said I'm not planning to make it ad monetized so we're not going to
have a lot of money to spend on like graphic design and I don't think slick
is very good I am probably ranking
within the worst artists that have ever been born onto this planet and I'm
probably going to be the one and we are one of us will probably be the ones that
make the skin so no diesel can help
diesel diesel can help diesel yeah diesel can help I I'll try and find a
template and hopefully diesel can help but in the early early build which I'm
hopefully going to be doing this weekend really hopefully W well there you go
that is what I pay him for um it's not as bad as I thought hopefully doing this
weekend uh I don't entirely know if it'll go live but it'll be running on my
computer in the very early build and once it's probably the first version that goes live will probably not look
insanely pretty but we'll work on it okay well malvin thinks V bulletin is
just fine I should devote a form just to stocking you um absolutely
not um building a PC versus NCI building
one or Hackintosh versus a Mac Pro build a Hackintosh don't like buy a Mac just
make sure the hardware is compatible as for building a PC versus having NCIX Do
It um it doesn't it doesn't matter um if
you're lazy then you can have NCIX build it the additional benefit is they'll do
a one-year warranty on the on the system itself it's honestly not that expensive
I don't I've got a buddy I've got a buddy that every computer that he gets
made like he definitely knows how to build computers but every computer that
he gets he uh he gets it built by ncx
because he's just way too lazy to build it himself um Michael get the h100i that
one's new newer okay so we're not actually seeing that much feedback about
the Forum let's go back up to the top let's see if some of these 121 new
interactions also if we have a forum I can post like the uh documentation for
my benchmarking oh yeah that' be kind of neat yeah so stuff that doesn't make it
into the videos um the actual spreadsheet so people can actually see
it stuff like that right so people can download it and manipulate it themselves
and whatnot so you don't just have to see a video version of it so that would
be kind of cool that was a good point that guy I didn't see the guy's name but
someone said that Jason asks when we uh when we plan
on launching and obviously soon okay so I think we spent enough time on this to
we can go back and have a look at some of these tweets after um any for you know what have a
look at some of your some of your topic suggestions for tonight let's do some more just general why don't we give the
twitch chat some love let's see what they want to know these guys go so fast
so I can never W there's a good suggestion see
let someone make a forum skin and make a contest out of it I mean the thing I
don't like about contests sometimes is just because someone always gets hurt
someone's feelings always get hurt no matter what someone's feelings are
always hurt
um it's like like if someone makes something for you no matter what it is
if you don't like it for whatever reason say like even if it's incompatible or if
there's like some weird reason that isn't necessarily that you don't like it
but you can't use it for some reason uh
it'll always hurt that person so making a contest um we only get to use one y
like it's not it's not like the Corsair keyboard video where we're like yeah we're going to give away five keyboards
except we're going to give away seven keyboards and like 35 versions of
Assassin's Creed cuz we're ridiculous um I don't know why is this
coming here why would this not be coming here not that it's not amazing I dropped
my T Virus though so I'm super not thrilled about that work I don't know
let's check so I had some no looks like it's okay so I had someone ask about the
status of my personal build so here it is um as you can plainly see there is no
status update so here's my virus here
put the T Virus down here's the
rig okay so basically I've actually un
progressed since last time I posted about it so you can see my 590 is
covered in drywall dust cuz it was in the yeah that's really not good like I
have no idea how I'm going to clean it now U my CPU socket is now empty cuz I
had to borrow the CPU for something and then my uh and then two of
my RAM sticks are gone because one of these one of my lus Edition RAM sticks
that was in my wife's computer died oh no way yeah I'm super not thrilled so
now I have five sticks take the spreaders off you can't trust me the
adhesive you'd bend them before you'd get them off and they're they're two pieces there's an outside piece and an
under like it's trust me it's not going to work talk to about that later I'll
help you you can oh okay I guarantee you I can get it off but you can I have some
other RAM I could put them on but um so yeah I took two of those out uh although
I've got my RAID card wired up correctly now and I've got a list in here of all
the additional things that I still need to uh to to do in terms of cutting
things and all that so really there's probably only about 8 hours of work left
in it but I've spent so much time on upgrading the uh the studio that I'm
putting in the garage that I just haven't had any time to spend on this so
yeah between that and the baby it's just really really tough want to find us
another Twitter question uh Twitter question or or twitch twitch someone say
something on Twitch it's not even in real time
they're like 10 seconds 15 seconds behind us
oh oh my God it's so quick I actually can't read one of them people say hi
slick chicken nuggets potato Starcraft 2
Cats slick do you even
lift show us your lifting here you
go can't do it can't do it the you can't
lift awesom T virus is too heavy too heavy it's it's the weight of how great
it is I know I just know I know um my first topic which I don't
think will take very long uh glossy versus Matte and why it's important
glossy versus Matte okay here we go hold on let me write this down okay we're
ready okay so I've been looking through Black Friday sales as long as uh I mean
the same as I bet a lot of you have I've been looking for a new monitor and I
just there's a couple really good options and a couple of the really good options are glossy and I just can't do
it I just I can't bring myself to buy a glossy monor okay we should clarify
glossy screen glossy bezel glossy bezel
glossy bezel okay I like Matt screen too
cuz you don't get glare problems but then I usually just black out blind my
room really yeah and then you get your bag of Cheetos I'm that guy you're that
guy I've blackout blinded most rooms that I've been in um where I am right
now now it's not as easy but I have curtains seriously I have curtains
blackout blinds blackout blinds oh my
goodness um my parents place is horrible
because there's there's a huge uh double
like sliding glass door behind me so you blackout blind I did not black out blind
it okay I black out blind my room I don't black out blind like like General
like so when slick moves out and has his own house I will black blind everything
it will be a dungeon I'm kidding I'm kidding I'll black up
blind where my computer but you'd put your computer in the basement if you had one yes so you'd be like so so you have
to have a nerd dungeon you'd be one step above living in your mom's basement I'd
be living in my own basement I definitely want like one of
my dreams for when I move out is like the best most epic nerd dungeon ever
like I want arcade machines arcade machines I want arcade maches you have
any idea how expensive those are they're quite a bit but you can make your own
yeah but I can tell you you can't afford to make your own because I know how much
I pay you this is I said this is when I move
out this is later on in life um but yeah
you're not going to work for me forever you can um I'll pay you
more sweet um you can make your own
fairly easily actually especially with a lot of the like ITX kind of hardware and
software you can get now yeah there's like M emulators and stuff right yeah that's not legit though you have to have
a legit pinball machine and like a legit like and like I would want those I would
really really want those but at the beginning I would probably kind of just
no that's just because if you settle then you'll never upgrade
it I don't know because you'd have to like you
don't want to find like the one that some dude has just had forever and
doesn't take care of it and just like uses it as like something to put his beer on
like you don't want that you want to go find the quality one no no you find a
black light you go over it it fits clean
it's okay but like I mean like dents all that kind
of stuff like I I would want one that's still in good condition you want one without dents well brutal where are you
going to find that brutal dance there's there's a you're a brutal dance there's
a like Museum kind of thing down in the states where okay so you're going to
steal from a museum no no um they help
you they help you find them look at this guy I didn't say I was going to steal
from a museum they help you find them steal from a museum steal Priceless
artifacts don't steal arcade machines but thinking small
here I'd much rather arcade machine than a I'm going to let you finish but
Beyonce had the best album how did we get you're trash how did we get here
from Matt versy trash your singing is trash compared to Beyonce I what I heard
you I heard you sing of course but it's I don't claim that I'm a good
singer how did we get here I think we
started with glossy versus Matt M monitor okay so let me put it this way I
mean I don't own a single glossy monitor
do I um my TV has a glossy bezel as you
can see however my TV was a wedding
present and as we discussed before there's no way to reject a wedding
present due to the screen's glossy I'm afraid I
cannot accept this 52-in television as
my wedding present it's just not going to happen yeah um so yeah pay attention
when you're buying monitors uh unless you just don't care but I would highly
suggest making sure that you get one with a matte pisel you know what a lot of people what like okay CU in theory
you should never touch it so why does it matter but it collects dust more easily
mhm it just generally looks dirty and you're going to move it from time to
time it's going to happen I think the biggest problem for me with glossy
surfaces is that unlike paint like paint
the glossier the more durable and the easier it is to clean but it's keep
going seems like with plastic the glossier it is the easier it is to
scratch up and Destroy yeah yeah it just looks like crap over time like you can
you can see uh what are they what are they even called idea pads think books
the IBM laptop yeah like super General one they're always think books something
yeah they're always like matte everywhere and even if they're super
super old like my grandma has one that she's had for a really long time she got
it with Windows 95 origin and it's like still a super I keep it
cuz that as a comp Port so I can plug it into like old things and manage them
anyways um it's all matte and is that
what you stole from the museum
no we got her a new computer and then she didn't want that one so she's going
to get rid of it so I took it so I can plug into things with the comport
anyways um it's it's matte everywhere and it still looks new except for the
fact that it's like thick but like all
the Plastics still look new because it's all matte and totally yeah yeah um well
like Blacky gray but yeah you know what a lot of people messag me about you know
those Cheapo Korean monitors on eBay yeah so you can get 2560 by 1440 like
IPS uh I think they're usually a minus
grade panels LG IPS a minus grade panels
lots of different monitors lots of different IDs for those of you who don't know ID refers to Industrial design so
it's like the design of the product what it looks like so I was looking at them yesterday
lots of options so they got ones with just DVI in they've got ones where you
can supposedly overclock the panel to faster than 60 htz no seriously I I
believe it I'm just surprised they've got ones where um they've got lots of
different inputs they've got like tons of different options not a single one of
them has a matte bezel yeah I was not
surprised I I expect I expected that and I'm not really that surprised I don't
know glossy just seems like the go-to and I have no idea cuz it looks good in
a store it looks good on display and there's a lot does not it gets dusty
instantly in a store the same way it does but they clean it every single night yeah in theory supp your magical
store like I'm just saying but
like I don't know looks good in pictures yeah it looks good in renders because
with pictures it's impossible not to catch the lights right exactly or like
edited photos but like it's it's more of a sales pitchy kind of thing not a I've
used this kind of thing before that had a glossy surface and I hated it kind of
thing here's what I want to know does it cost that much more to make a matte
bezel I I don't know when I first started seeing like when when glossy
started being really popular I was actually surprised because I assumed it
cost more it looks like it would cost more I don't know I have no idea I know
they have to put more protective crap on it in order to protect like seal it yeah
they always have to seal it so there's probably tooling involved in something
to do with that like some kind of D to cut out the plastic and but I mean
someone has to put it on yeah yeah I don't know I just well it's probably a
machine but like you're a
machine machine SMH and you're wearing green that's Hulk
not machine well I didn't say you were the Hulk you said machine smash yeah and
Hulk doesn't say machine smash no he doesn't but you're a machine not the
Hulk what's wrong with you think he the hul why does the machine have to be
green a bunch of people on YouTube tell him he's hul and now he thinks he's the
that wasn't the point why did you why did why does the machine have to be green your name isn't Bruce Banner I
wish I was Bruce Banner it's awesome except that I'd be
dead right now I'm glad you're not no remember from
Avengers he's always angry and can control it so you wouldn't be dead right now cuz you pay me but you've never
necessarily like helped before so maybe this would be the first time and you
wouldn't have control cuz you're still young right now he's younger than me
like a lot younger even though he's much larger 11 is not a
number on a previous stream someone asked me how old I was and I said 11 and
then someone thought I was actually 11 hold on I have a question for the twitch
chat we're going to Twitch chat right now twitch chat twitch chat tell me
something like this tell me if there's
anyone who actually prefers a glossy bezel come on
guys tell me what we we got who prefers a glossy
bezel yes I love phys no no no no no yes
I saw one yes I saw one I prefer glossy
people say largely that it doesn't matter twitch chat is just impossible to
follow how fast can't you put it on can't you put it on slow mode yeah but
people complain when I put it on slow mode this is the problem with having
2,000 people watching all right back to
Twitter because twitch chat is impossible I love you guys but it's
impossible oh this is interesting synapse 2.0 apparently got an update so
now when you lose the internet it goes into offline mode so you can still use your key bindings so what's your take on
on synapse now so synapse is Razor software that allows you to use the
cloud to back up all your preferences for your peripherals and stuff that's
I'm okay with it now that was that was my only real problem there we go if if
you fix my only real problem that's okay I I'm I'm surprised they overlooked it
but it that seemed like it was fixed pretty quickly okay so that's cool I'm
cool with that I have not seen the MSI EMP power RAM although I suspect it's
RAM just like all other RAM
um H Clinton says I have a $5 capture
card and a $90 one they both look the crap what do you suggest as an alternate
composite video capture card not HDMI
oh honestly I don't have many suggestions you can adapter off adap off
of what HD want yeah but there'll have
to be some kind of adapt like there'll have to be it'll have to be an active adapter well the live gamer HD can
adapter off we were doing DVI and DVI we weren't doing HDMI and HDMI no no but
that's composite that's an analog signal yeah no no that won't work the
black magic intensity Pro does do composite but it's a $200 capture card
but it's a professional grade capture card and it's really volatile and it
well yeah and it causes blue screen it just like dies constantly
well no if you have it in the right motherboard it doesn't die constantly
right if anyone's wondering why we have the kinds of technical difficulties we
do it's like oh nothing ever works we
get pre-release stuff we get Niche stuff beta drivers beta drivers we're always
running ridiculous things like state-of-the-art stuff that like thing a
Works thing B works but thing a plus b
just explosion cuz usually if if if we have a video about it if it's on release
and we release the video on release we probably filmed it a really long time
ago when they were still like you couldn't download the drivers for it it
came on like some unlabeled disc where someone wrote with a marker like beta
driver and then what number like it's usually pretty pretty sketchy setup I
remember there was one motherboard where I was getting driver updates in my inbox
like every two days and I was like what is the point of me even starting to test
this platform if they're sending me new driver releases every 2 days that will
completely inval validate or not driver BIOS releases that will completely
invalidate everything I already ran why would I even bother to start on this and
that happened all the way up till about 3 days from release and I'm like what
about all the motherboards youve already built are they shipping with a BIOS
that's not good enough like I not naming
any names or anything but just you know a lot of you know you guys ask me a lot
of the time lonus why don't you ever recommend this brand or ever recommend
this thing assume there's a reason let's just put it that way
assume I know and assume there's a reason uh okay people could submit their
own reviews that could be voted up in a database that would be kind of fun as a forum idea that' be cool because we
can't see everything y uh let's a good Sandy Bridge upgrade
you know what here let's go into let's go into another let's go to another topic why don't you uh why don't you get
a topic for us okay
um uh this actually builds into what you were just talking about brand favoritism
ah yes um people ask why I suggest ducky
keyboards a lot um so okay this one's not even necessarily brand favoritism
I've had quite a few people go like oh I see you suggest a lot of keyboards on Twitter why are they all duckies it's
because 99% of the people that ask me for a keyboard on Twitter are asking for
a keyboard with backlights a mechanical keyboard with backlights so if you don't
want a very specific colored backlight um and it's mechanical key
like if you want a blue backlight there's three options yeah I think
that's pretty much it if you want a back white backlight there's two options and
if you want any other color there's one option so oh Cooler Master has some more
now as well actually Cooler Master does yeah I think they have some backlit ones quickfire something something there's
one in the mail to us but it's shipped by USPS so it'll get here when it does
whenever it feels like it yeah yeah okay well that's cool but like the reason why
I suggest a lot of duckies is like in my
opinion it's like ducky and filco or
like the legit like top tier keyboard that's
just completely utterly badass g710 plus
really really good I don't have enough usage with it yet personally because
I've typed on it for like 3 seconds okay it's a really decide okay I'll give you
that um but Logitech as far as actual
like software goes is legit as hell way better than probably anyone else
Logitech could blast up there I I believe in Logitech because I'm going to
go get the g710 plus but you can okay here cover this tweet wait they come up
with one with Blue switches that's my whole thing I know I'm a blue switch guy
so for me to really really like something it's going to be Blue switches
what am I what am I doing for tweet no no that tweet that's up there right now
in my email okay this tweet is
everything that's wrong with like PC enthusiasts so I got a tweet from
someone I'm not going to name any names at Linus I really don't like apple if I
get an iPad iPhone iPod I whatever then
I would sell it directly because it is the worst OS ever with two RS and five
exclamation marks so let me put it this way cuz I was making I was making a
point I'm not a fan of anything I'm not some kind of zealot um I have an iPhone
I chose the iPhone because it was the best choice at the time Android was
still in the gingerbread stage which was rubbish and the devices out there were
not very good so I got an iPhone 4 um
Android devices are way better now with stuff like the Galaxy S3 being the
singest phone ever and uh so yeah ever
right yeah I was just going to bring up that the uh Nexus 4 sold out just like
oh yeah Nexus 4 might you know come up on it but I mean S3 has been out for so
long oh yeah know I know I'm just saying like like Android selling Android in
general is selling like hot cakes right now so the point I was trying to make is
that iPhone is a great phone that's it it's not open for debate
they've sold millions and millions and millions and millions and there's lots
of happy happy happy happy custom just because it's not good for you cuz
someone was saying that it's the worst the worst OS ever really worse than
Windows
me and now I'm just I'm I mean I'm just picking on Microsoft is it worse than
Windows 95 actually 95 is okay I should I'm not
going to pick on 95 was it worse than I mean I personally liked Vista but in
your mind it was it worse than Vista I I okay you see my point here
right yeah we we talked about this in the car and like you guys all know I fight for Android um and I will continue
to fight for Android but if my grandpa asked for a phone why would I suggest
Android that doesn't seem like a good idea that seems like a terrible idea I
want something that he can grab it and it will be set up immediately and he
won't have to do anything with it and he can just send emails and send text
messages and call people so the point is that if it's not great for you that
doesn't mean necess that doesn't mean it might not be great for someone else that doesn't mean it sucks yeah my mom my mom
has a non-smartphone Android and I wish
I would have just gotten her to get an iPhone because she constantly struggles
with it because like very simple cues
she doesn't really pick up on all the time um which like very simple to me um
but iPhone seems a lot more intuitive for her usage scenario so it depends
what usage scenario being for so it might be the worst OS ever to you ever
but it's not necessarily the worst OS ever to everyone else again in my
opinion for me especially and for I
think probably a vast majority of our viewers Android will probably suit you
better but that doesn't mean that iOS is inherently bad now like okay Apple Maps
is bad okay but but I have still manage to
avoid updating to iOS 6 so there bam right um okay so so fanboyism in general
is terrible and I just want to put it this way being a zealot of anything
makes you lame what have you got oh I'll just bring it out okay um but in cases
where it kind of makes sense is when um
they have like great support they're great warranty so you can like the brand
because of their how much they will help you but then if their product suck
that's not going to help so you should look at the individual products and then if you find two equals go with a brand
that you know has awesome support but that's not being a zealot like being a
zealot is supporting something that's just that we just know is bad I mean
something like okay H ly you know what anyone who bought an original Pentium 4
extreme Edition tune out now just tune out now stop watching go away I don't
want to talk to you anymore because it was an obviously inferior product I mean
you're probably a little bit too young for this aren't you I I was not crazy
into computer okay the Pentium 4 extreme Edition I think it was the 925 XE was
the first one I think I could be wrong
terrible product it ran so hard
and it was so slow compared to the FX
chip that it was up against which would have been the FX 51 or 53 or something
along those lines the FX AMD started this whole thousand desktop processor
thing and like guys you know if you think any you know if you're all like
blah blah blah you know AMD loves the consumer that's why they have $200
processor AMD has $200 processors because that's how much people will pay for their processors when they thought
they could get 1,000 bucks for a chip they were all over that like white on
rice they were they started this whole
extreme Edition thing that Intel continues to do so it was a just
horrible product compared to what what else was out there people bought it I
know that people bought it so that to me is being a zealot
because AMD and Intel both have a long track record of good reliability blah
blah blah blah blah all that good stuff except we knew that they cost the same
and we knew that the extreme Edition was dramatically slower
and otherwise equal in every possible way o it had hyperthreading but it was
still slower so it doesn't matter yeah like that's that's what I
mean though but like like uh I don't
know he let's talk video cards maybe like 9800 it's just reskinned which
one's that 9800 yeah but that doesn't have to do with brand favoritism but
that's like it was a reskin and a lot of people yeah I guess that's not really
brand no no no see why do I even invite him to these things just so that you
guys can like look at him but a lot of people would upgrade to it just because
they believed like see that much it's new from it's I knew a lot of people
that didn't really yeah oh but they're like oh it's new I have an 8800 GTX my
8800 GTX is good and it's NVIDIA so NVIDIA came up with something new that
means it's obviously awesome I should upgrade okay well okay okay so I see
what you mean so blind faith and brand blind blind upgrading when you actually
don't need it because you have that Blind Faith and that zetis so that's
almost like apple zombie syndrome yeah
yeah oh my God new iPad I have no idea what just happened but I'm going to buy
one see that's another thing guys like you guys give me a really hard time for
owning an iPhone I don't own an iPhone 5
I don't own a 4S I didn't own a 3Gs and
I didn't own whatever what came before that wasn't it just three 3G I didn't
own a 3G and I didn't own an iPhone I have owned one iPhone ever because my
company said we're getting you a phone what do you want so I picked this that
was it I I have actually only spent money on an Apple product once in my
life and it was when I dropped my keys on my iPad and I cracked the screen and
it was I think it was $200 to get a brand new iPad from the store because it
was under warranty or something so I didn't even buy my iPad I just replaced
it when it was broken so that was the that was the only time so so guys I
don't oh yeah here's another one um has anyone ever told minus that you look
like Eminem I actually get that a and I don't see it do you see it no doesn't
Eminem No No Yeah see guys no I I get it
a lot though white guy with blonde hair is that like is that what they're seeing
well I dyed my hair blonde once but it's like blondish is is it is I don't think
his is straight blonde I don't really know I don't yeah
whatever I don't really see it I don't know okay uh you know what this is this
is a question that's going to lead us into another discussion topic so
discussion topic for right now
is stop asking me what is the best
monitor stop asking me what is the best case stop asking me what is the best
Mouse stop asking me what is the best keyboard I could go on for a while if
it's something that's subjective I cannot tell you you can ask me I mean
even I I sent out this tweet earlier and I had a lot of people Tweet back at me
and go well lonus what they really mean to ask you is what are you using to
which I would reply it's probably not relevant because what I'm using for
example for my monitor is a 305t plus from Samsung you can't buy it it's
discontinued so what am I going to do I'm not going to recommend it because
you can't buy it in fact same thing goes for my mouse people ask me oh what's the
best Mouse and I'll say this and this and they'll say oh well what most do you
use and I say well I use an aari laser good luck trying to buy one because
they're dead now well they're not dead they still work they're hard to find but
you can't find them anymore so um if you
want to ask a question like what is the best monitor ask me a question like what
is the best monitor for gaming refresh
rate is most important to me or color is most important to me because what
happens is I end up asking having to ask probing questions and what happens on
Twitter if I have to ask you so if you send me so here let's simulate this ask
me a question what is the best key keboard what is your keyboard
for gaming do you need macro keys or not
no do you type a lot yes okay go with a dash keyboard what
switches they both have blues oh okay but don't be a smart guy the blue one
calm down so my point is I don't see
every tweet if we have to go back and forth four times you're never going to
get an answer so don't ask me lonus can you configure a PC for me you know what
go on nci.com go to buy a PC and then
find a computer and then say lonus is this a good computer or what would you
change and then I can send you a summary and Slick can do the same thing he's
super technical too what would you change we'll go oh well you know
downgrade this upgrade this you can hit approximately that same price point get
10% better performance but if you're just like lonus I'm not willing to put
the work into it uh what should I get for custom water cooling I'm going to
say look man this is Twitter I have 140 characters to tell you a full custom
water cooling loop I don't know what case you have I don't know what CPU
socket you're using I don't know what graphics card you have I don't know if you even want to water cool your
graphics I don't know what your budget is like we want to help you but it's a
lot better if you give us like like these are very specifically what I want
or um like these two things okay saying
I want a great gaming keyboard with blue backlight like that helps we can help
you that helps a lot but if it's like like what's the best keyboard it's it's
way too General what's the best keyboard I don't know well you tell me what do
you use I well okay I use a non-backlit
ducky with blue well that one has a wire I don't like wires I want
Wireless
stop do mechanical switches inherently use more power why don't we have any
Wireless mechanical keyboards cuz wireless keyboards are okay the whole
like mindset of having mechanical keyboard goes against the like latency
issues that are inherited by a wired by a wireless they have very low latency
Wireless um you could like you can
yourself make using like Wireless dongles and whatnot you could make
a yeah but then you'd end up with like the okay people want Wireless because
they want something elegant not cuz they want some Franken keyboard all left like
wires coming out of it here and like screws
like random USB dongle just like shooting out of the back yeah that's still a wire just saying no I mean like
the the stick just the stick you can don't worry about it
um it's just like uber low latency uh en
key rollover like all this kind of stuff is the whole mindset of mechanical so
why would you go Wireless you're not why would you have a mechanical keyboard for
your like media PC well yeah but I don't maybe I just don't like uh maybe I want
to have a great typing experience and I don't want why wires there's something
wrong with that I don't know I just the Market's not there is my guess I would
have thought the market there might also be another reason but I'm not entirely sure I would have thought the market
wasn't there for mechanical keyboards in general but we've got at least like
three or four like there entire forum is dedicated to it well yeah exactly but
it's still a niche thing comparatively speaking compared to membran keyboards
like membran keyboards it's totally Niche yeah yeah it's becoming more
popular though logitech's embraced it yeah someone must have a wireless
keyboard at some point like mechanical keyboard some point so anyway test is
not going to be applicable some of this came from uh some of this came from a
tweet that I got that was oh yeah another thing guys is if you've already
Googled it and you already can't find it
like the odds are excellent that if you Google like you know 120 HZ monitor with
great viewing angles and you couldn't find anything like that the odds are
excellent It's because it doesn't exist and tweeting me about it actually won't
help so I had someone tweet me do you know a 120 HZ monitor with great viewing
angles or or at least better than average and the answer is no because 120
HZ monitors are all using TN panels they're using TN panels that are
overclocked like Mad in order to get the
pixels to switch fast enough between color and a and color B in order to keep
up with that 120 HZ refresh rate TN monitors have rubbish viewing
angles rubbish color reproduction and
rubbish color depth that's just all there is to it
however they are much much faster than
VA IPS or PLS panels which is good for
gaming however I personally prefer my
305t Plus for gaming it's a VA panel
it's slow as heck I can see the motion blur but it doesn't bother me that much
input leg is very discernible if I have anti-aliasing on so I keep it off I like
the high resolution the deep colors and the accurate colors that enhances my
gaming experience so you might go okay lonus I'm not going to ask you what's
the best monitor but I'll ask you what's the best gaming monitor to which I would
go I don't know man you want resolution you want color accuracy you want color
depth you want speed I don't know you want 3D these are all again this brings
up the Forum thing again these are all a lot better A lot better questions for a
forum we we can't we don't have the typing space to deal with it in Twitter
I think that's more what he's complaining about you know what we need in the Forum we need like a section with
like slicks picks yeah and like Linus's
um I don't know there's nothing that catchy Slick's pick is way better
although it sounds like it sounds like um you know like the nose and the Slick
p i don't oh my goodness no double meaning slicks picks where I try to take
pictures of you picking your nose so it's picks of his pics and they're
slicks wow wow
wow no that shouldn't be an entire form
section no I don't think so okay then let's go back to uh let's go back
to more topics that I had sort of
uh oh yeah here okay riddle me this why
do people buy phones without a
contract um this tweets point is iPhone
is no no don't worry about that one this one just that yeah why why would you buy
a phone without a contract riddle me this like phones are like $600 it's a
lot of money uh I think you're already on a contract so you just switch what phone you're
using okay so like if someone had why
are you switching your phone because you want a new one I wouldn't I'm just
trying I'm playing Devil's Advocate I'm trying to fight for the guys that do like I've got a friend at school that
really really wanted the Nexus 4 I don't know what he has right now but he really
really wanted a Nexus 4 so he was waiting to buy a Nexus 4 online he
already has a contract he just wanted a new phone you and me aren't I like I
like Android and I play around my Android but I'm definitely not as crazy
as um well one of my friends other than that I'm pretty much the craziest in our
group but like some of the guys that um follow me on Twitter have commented on
stuff that's a little bit over my head and I've looked it up and figured it out but yeah but like if you're a phone
Advocate it might be worth for you to buy a new
phone you're just buying a new piece of technology okay I'm sure they know it's
not but the but the release Cycles on them are so
fast that's true but like if you if you
have the money to spend and that's what you're really into then why not I would make the argument that any phone from
the last couple years is a phone already
and does pretty much anything that you could possibly
need okay tell me what you can do with your NEX or whatever that thing is
Galaxy S3 that you couldn't do with your Nexus S A lot of the games a lot of the
games on my Nexus S would like emulators emulators would like some of the higher
end emulators would like okay um this is
just generally faster okay which it has a way nicer even
though I had Jelly Bean on my Nexus S this one's Jelly Bean due to its
Hardware advancements is a lot snappier a lot faster and a lot more
fluid and I can go from like playing a game I can be in the middle of playing a
game and just like tap home button and
just send an email and jump back into the game on my next assess would be like
tap home button oh God the game has to like decide that it's quitting now okay
see this is yet another like iOS thing I'm kind of spoiled I don't have that
you don't have what like there's no there's no lag I can exit a game and
then go do something else and go back into yeah but I'm talking about pretty
intense games not Angry Birds what's an intense game on a phone though they have
higher end games like like that blade one or
whatever Infinity Blade I don't know Infinity Blade supposed to have good
that was a long time ago the only games I have on my phone are from Humble Bundle oh okay okay well fine you've
made your point okay I kind of understand I mean it's it's been a long
time it's just not really your thing yes phones are not my thing yeah so like you
you can't hate on someone for enjoying something really I suppose best case
best no no this is related to the same thing oh oh oh okay you know what let's
do a little bit of uh Twitter Q&A because we've really abandoned the poor
the poor peeps on Twitter tonight 320
new interactions all right here we go
all right I was wondering if you could suggest a good gaming keyboard with macro keys I also type a lot so it need
to be good for typing uh you know what actually g710 plus would be a great
choice there yeah actually bam okay here
spend some time with the g710 plus I'll do Twitter questions for a bit see what
you think cuz the build quality like feels I saw it for a little bit pretty
pretty solid to me all right 27 in monitor with 2 to 3 millisecond response
time don't care about the Hertz and a matte desle under $400 what would you
recommend you know what Ian that's you've got such a good idea of what you
want you might as well just type that all into Google and find it however 2 to 3 millisecond response time is totally
unre realistic so this is where you're asking me for something that actually
doesn't probably exist um wow A lot of people are asking
me to unbox the Razer uroos so I should probably do something
about that I haven't actually um can I can I email this to
myself I don't know in who tweet I can email myself a tweet to remind me but I
will try to remember to deal with that because a lot of people have asked me
for that and now I've lost where we were
what have you done slick I didn't do anything D okay here we go we're
typically at around one gig for most modern games however more gigs is only
really useful for higher res or many displays uh Nick that has not been my
experience I've seen games use more than a gig of RAM um a contract with an S3
for 24 months will cost around 1K but buy the phone for 400 and a 7even 12mth
contract is a better deal okay s um you
live in the UK obviously and it might be different there but here trust me it is
a way better deal to just get the phone with a contract um especially because
you have to get a service plan anyway I know that wireless is really cheap in
the UK but here it's totally different because Canada is really big and to a
lesser extent the US is quite big as well compared to the UK in the UK you
put up like what three cell towers and you have deployed the latest high-speed
technology whereas uh the carriers in Canada have to I mean how many towers do
you think they have to put up compared to like oh it's ridiculous and then they don't even they get like um a lot of
carriers in Canada base their coverage off of population coverage not land
coverage did you know that yeah I know that because all they'll cover is like
like in BC they'll cover like Vancouver and Victoria Island and then like a
little bit of Colona and stuff and then they like don't go up from there
seriously look at look at I've seen the Rogers map cuz it's just like the top is
like empty yeah it's empty and then it's like it like Scoops up a little bit on
the west coast and then kind of goes like and then jumps a bit when it gets
to Ontario that's about it right so like you're not really getting all of Canada
coverage so yeah here the the plans are actually super expensive like my cell
phone's about $100 a month because I have to place some calls to the US so I
need I need a couple more advanced features for business uh Nick Carter
asks is it possible to find this yes it is eBay has them
ebay.com go there search for 2560 time
1440 what is the best fan setup for the Corsair obsidian if I don't use the
bottom fan Mount going to use an h100i in the top mounts just use knock to a F
series for everything and it will always be the best actually I don't remember if
the C70 has 140 mil fans you know what best fan setup is
always easy find good fans put them in your case don't worry too much about it
beyond that yeah oh oh Linus I've read a
lot that you need 2 millisecond response time monitors for to game what Max
response time do you think is needed for gaming anyone who tells you you need a 2
millisecond response time for gaming is an idiot because it doesn't exist there
there's no such thing as a monitor with 2 millisecond response time that doesn't
exhibit motion blur which is exactly what the response time means response
time is it's rated in either gray to gray or whatever the other one is and it
means how quickly the pixels can change color pixels are not fast they are slow
they are so slow compared to CRT compared to DLP and projection uh or in
projectors compared to plasma LCD pixels are slow so any monitor that is rated at
2 milliseconds you know right off the bat they are lying because none of them
are that fast what's more important than the response time of the panel because
there's only like a half a dozen maybe I don't know how many panel manufacturers
are left there's LG Phillips there's Samsung I think auo still manufactures
some but there's only a few guys left actually manufacturing LCD panels so
it's all the same stuff so it's not like one of them is like way faster than
something else because of like magic
um so yeah so anyone who tells you 2
milliseconds is lying also the electronics of the monitor are in some
ways way more important than the actual response time of the screen since you
know that that's going to be pretty much the same so I have a monitor that has
such bad input leg so input leg how long
it takes between the Monitor receiving the signal and actually sending that to
the pixels before they change so I'll go like this it's
like when I move the mouse like it's just terrible it's an older monitor none
of the new stuff's that bad mostly you just see like motion blur on VA panels
but um where was I going with this if you must have the fastest possible
monitors get a 120 HZ panel benq's 2420t
is excellent um ASUS's VG series I think is it VG VH something whatever they
their 120 HZ and 144 HZ panels are as
good as you're going to get the colors are terrible the viewing angles are terrible don't ask me if it's the best
monitor because it's not but it is the
fastest and like okay it still matters if you're ridiculously hardcore but the
2ms thing is kind of a sham just try and go for one that's good quality like he
was talking about Christi I'm ready to talk about this one okay Christian says
he buys off contract for his phones can get a better plan that is cheaper in the
long run okay again depends how it works where you're from uh in Canada you do
not get a cheaper plan for having your own phone no but this is educational for
me now I understand why people do it because here in Canada makes yeah people
still do it here though yeah that I don't understand um I bought a phone case cuz
my old one
broke ah slicks picks and Linus's finest
that's not bad for our for our like top uh our top choices pretty good why
hasn't Cricket caught on in
Canada um well the socks are an
issue it's a very European game yeah I
know they wear those socks here and I think the a lot of sports are influenced
from like a really long time ago and I think the whole America and Canada
trying to separate themselves from the
European grouping of countries um might
Ser that away look at this guy look at
him I don't think that's why people don't want to play it
here are you sure that's not why people don't want to play it I
look at him I mean here it doesn't get any
better look at these guys so look at uh look at curling c
yeah but curling curling is inexplicable too but it's huge in Canada old people
play it it's like golf where like old people can still do it so maybe that's
why it's
popular I mean look at these guys these guys are probably like super famous and
awesome look how badass this guy looks look at that look on his face and this
guy's a dream boat but come on they got
like stars on their uniform and stuff okay okay I mean it's not getting
any better for this
game okay we get this kid's pretty cool
okay fine we're not going to pick on Cricket anymore I'm done I'm done and
I'm sorry I'm sorry uh you know what I think it's just a cultural thing I mean
hockey is Canada sport it's like you
watch your dad watches it's like why isn't oh boy this is going to get ugly
but like why isn't Christianity popular in the Middle East because your dad
didn't believe in Jesus so they never told you about it and that's just it's
it's cultural everything is cultural why isn't Curry popular in Great
Britain because that's not what you grew up eating so I grew up watching hockey
my dad watched hockey there's hockey night in Canada it's just built into the
fabricc of your culture all it is I'm sure that has a lot to do that has a lot
to do with it why is badminton not popular in North America fantastic sport
fast-paced super athletic entertaining
to watch tons of fun to play but everyone in North America thinks badmon
is this plink plink plink badminton is
not that badminton is 300 plus kilometer per hour smashes but I I I i' played
tennis and I thought badminton I thought it was more than I think most
people from where I grew up thought it was but then after seeing him play it's
actually pretty freaking ridiculous after I still remember playing myself I
still remember what you said to me the first cuz I had to it was a late filming
night and I took slick with me to uh to
cuz I was like I I want to go play badminton tonight do you want to just like nap on the couch there's a couch
there and uh he he said something along
the lines of like holy crap you're really fast yeah yeah I did not expect
him to be that fast at all he did not know the game was fast though you have
to be fast but it doesn't it hasn't caught on and I yeah I don't I don't
know yeah Slick's pick sounds like nude picks of slick you know what we could
add that to the Forum might drive traffic yeah it might drive traffic okay
guys if you would come to our Forum to see new picks of him then go
away cuz he's really not that goodlooking let's cover him up
again nude P of
snake I have two GTX 560s and I would
yes your power supply is fine what does gosu mean uh I believe Pro in Korean Pro
in Korean it's from Star it's from handsome I think it's called handsome
gamer.com the big Starcraft Caster has a site where he sells shirts and they all
reference Starcraft and you'll say G Su in Starcraft some's really good you
don't care just keep going I like it though it's cool do you
feel the Nostalgia of the days you wanted a Motorola Razor so badly
actually I don't I've never been a phone guy I've owned like five phones in my
life over a span of like 10 years so that should give you guys some idea what
my upgrade cycle is and it was always whatever was free with a contract or
whatever like work offered me the only reason why I ever got a phone in the
first place was so that I could get on the cheapest phone with the cheapest
plan that offered unlimited texting so that my girlfriend could text me that
was the only reason I got I got it so that she could talk to me I've never
bought a phone I just realized that my
mom bought me my first phone because it was like this cool Motorola thing it was
called the vbox or something like that it had a full keyboard it was the first
like cell phone like mainstream cell phone it was $200 with a plan that had a
full keyboard then that one broke so I got a warranty replacement of something
else and then that one died so I used someone else's old phone and then I got
my job at NC and they issued me a Blackberry and then that one got to be
like three and a half years old and I was up for Renewal so then I got an
iPhone with my plan and it was provided by work I've never bought a
phone there you go I just realized that
learned something every day well I didn't learn it but I realized it sort
of the same thing oh my
goodness it is not a 130 HZ monitor some
people have managed to overclock the early ones that's done
now um in Soviet Russia Google Linus is
you okay thank you Peter
I have a level 10 GT wanted to know if I can keep my fan LEDs the same color at
boot I have no idea I also don't know why that would
matter Linus's links isn't
bad uh so you mean to say that you have to sacrifice qualities for high frame
rates with 120 HZ monitor yes yes you do
the only way to get high frame rates great color and um yeah High frame rates
are like Fast frequencies great color
and like great brightness and all that stuff is to have you know a 60 pound
CRT I kind of wish someone still made like like a 24in widescreen CRT that'd
be kind of awesome I wonder what the shipping costs on those are nowadays
well I mean it was always that was always a huge part of why CRTs were
expensive no I know I'm just saying like like your pricing for that would to be
incredible yeah it would have to be just like horrible compared and the volumes
would be so low yeah cuz nobody wants a CRT I mean some people do but they're
very Niche uh okay we've got like I thought I
thought I saw someone say something about tedious oh no I thought someone said our
conversation was tedious if you guys don't like the conversation I'm very
sorry um moderators from forums will be
individually selected based on contribution in the Forum that much is
set in stone at this point in time what you got for a topic um we've got a
couple things probably CF oh yeah so guys uh we mentioned a little
while back that we're going to be at CES so he and I and Diesel's coming too now
yay um are going to be at CES this year we are going to be doing all kinds of
cool stuff we want to know what's your priority so the goal is to provide the
most complete content possible so we want to do video then we want to have
pictures to go along with a little written article that has the video embedd in it we want you guys to have
the CES experience that you would have if you got to go which you don't because
you don't have an industry affiliation unless you do in which case maybe I'll
see you there so what's the most important to you guys cuz there's a lot
of aspects number one is there's the show floor itself where you're going to
have a lot of iPhone accessories like serious business like a
third of the booths will be like iPhone crap then there'll be like the Intel
thing which will be like this huge thing and probably its own dedicated video or
multiple videos and then in between that you've got guys like um you know uh
shuttle for example where they're like it cool it components showing off new
stuff but they're not Intel and they're also not iPhone accessories where it's
kind of cool stuff then you've got the sweets so guys like some of the boutique
guys like you know an EVGA or someone like that Corsair might have all their
new stuff on display in a suite in a nearby Hotel um and finally there's just
the general hubub you guys want to see like the traffic and like just all the
people around and like sort of some of the cool stuff going on outside the CES
building so what's your priority what do you guys want to see you want to see the show floor you want to see the Suites
and focus on sort of what's on display more privately or do you want to focus
on uh like do you want to see Keynotes and stuff which I don't think is going
to be an option because we can't get press passes but oh yeah okay forget the
Keynotes we can't bring you that um but do you guys guys just want like General
footage of the whole thing you want like the being their experience right yeah
but like also what thanks for the contribution like do they you were talking pretty quick the whole time what
do you want me to do um like you well
when I want to say something when you're talking I just talk over you it's cuz you're a
jerk um like do you want more of a focus on written articles do you want do you
want quick quick quick articles all the time or do you want just like uh more
in-depth thorough articles like yeah just what do you guys want um yeah what
do you want loud
computers okay well we don't have to transition into that right away we could
actually read what they're saying well okay I thought they were going to say
okay he wants no iPhone stuff all right
uh is it useful having 4 gigs of vram uh yes however I have no idea how much vram
future games will use because they're not here yet when are you going to play
Super Mario Brothers we said we yeah we got to find it I have no idea I have no
idea it's we're both ridiculously busy so finding time to sit down and bust the
Super Mario Brothers is going to be hard yeah in school I work fulltime Plus
YouTube so that should give you guys some idea um sinuses no that's ter um
what was I going to say but like we we will I think at some point in time we
will get it done maybe in the summer yeah like it like it might take a long
time but it'll happen um when will you announce the for
we will announce that the Forum is live the second it's live guys yeah Lenovo
twist if you could get a if if I might do some for some testing for the Forum I
might just post on my Twitter so we don't get completely ridiculously Zerg
Rush right um because we will if we post it
on your Twitter right um so I might just post it on mine and I might just put it
up for a little bit of time just to test certain things and I'll probably have a theme like post pictures or something
here's a good question if and asking me I guess if you have any if you actually
why don't we both answer if you could have any phone now for free would you go
with an iOS phone or Windows or Android
go I would love to try I would love to try the new Windows one but I would
probably go with what if you were locked into it like what if you're a cheap
person like you are he's the one of the cheapest people I know what if you were
cheap and you knew that whatever phone you pick you're stuck with it for the next three years Nexus 4 you'd go with
the Nexus 4 yeah done Nexus support is amazing you'll always get the new OS
upgrades you always get all that kind of stuff so Nexus 4 okay I love my S3 it's
great but if I'm locked into something I would like it to be a next and I know I
am right it sucks warranty issues anyways um if I'm locked into something
Nexus and the newest one is an Nexus 4 and it's getting awesome reviews and
it's just generally great so yeah go with Nexus 4 hands down I would get an
iPhone
5 you know what okay not not because I'm
a zealot but couple of reasons you're used to the user experience I am used to
it I hate learning new things although I have spent a fair amount of time with
Android just because I have to because it's my job um however all the apps I
own are on I I have bought apps and
migrating is a pain um I have an iPad
and I don't like Android tablets yet I haven't found one that I really really
like um I use my Galaxy Tab 10.1 to
watch Flash videos other than that I refuse to use it I use the iPad
um I use my TF700 again for watching
Flash videos when the battery's dead on the Galaxy Tab cuz it's too heavy and
the Galaxy Tab is lighter I'm a really p picky user and I've had people say that
I'm just like a really like you know don't be such a just use whatever
but come on guys if you could have every
tablet yo wouldn't you just be picky about which one you use I mean they're
all here why don't I use the one I like best bam so um so yes so I like you know
having that that ecosystem that is
similar I'd never go Mac for it like I'd never go Mac to have the full
integration thank God I I don't know
maybe I'd consider a Windows phone I I'm interested in the Windows phone because
Windows 8 is pretty awesome I mean we played around with we played around with
that Samsung one not enough though I know it wasn't enough we we saw a
Samsung Windows 8 phone at the windows8 launch party looked awesome it looked
great it was basically basically an S3
made out of metal that had Windows eight
on it so it was pretty it was pretty pretty legit the camera sucked I didn't
check the CER no the camera sucked did it yeah I thought it was supposed to be the same as this one I don't think so oh
cuz this maybe no it was the tablet it was the tablet that the camera suck the
tablet had a terrible camera ter the Windows 8 one from Samsung has the same
camera as this which is great okay my bad um
I okay I would waffle about it it would be a tough choice I wouldn't go on
Android though okay I'm I'm not surprised take that just cuz well I know
you don't like the user experience I
personally I think Android's better and you know what this comes down to that
fanboyism thing again where honestly sometimes fanboyism isn't fanboyism
sometimes it's a negative past experience the Android experience with
my wi phone has been terrible but you're using an like again not an Nexus device
so you didn't get updates um and you're
using one like an older Android OS and older Android os's were not that popular
it's a lot more popular now this is this is a good one Trent asks can you do more
3D monitor unboxings around 23 in and more affordable not those $600 ones
please this is a great example where if you checked it out and you searched for 3D
monitors on say for example a popular eail website like NCI what you'd see is
that the 3D monitors do cost a lot um so
for me to unbox the ones that are not expensive would be very
difficult slicks picks and Linus's
Lube lus likes lus likes that's not bad is that
on Twitter or something now okay do you have anything else for really important
discussion topics because it's 10:42 already for people that are really into
games um a new release that's coming out fairly soon I think it's right at the
beginning of December Far Cry 3 if you look on YouTube there's a the first 20
minutes of the game looks awesome really excited for Far Cry 3 um the story line
sounds amazing if you've been following the storyline updates at all and the
gameplay video is just it's great check it out it's 20 minutes the uh the
doesn't ruin the story line at all the ad forward on The Escapist is terrible
the voice actor is I think the worst I've ever heard the voice actor which
one which one the main character I think really I it's just maybe it's just for
the ad like maybe he just phoned in the ad spot or something maybe because it
was just terrible you didn't see that bad my friends and I went to an island
and then the whole point captured originally he's kind of like a prissy
boy and his brother's in the Army and his brother like in a little tiny bit of
time trains him like very basic things then he has to like find his way to
survive and he becomes if it's better than Far Cry 2 I'll be happy like he's
got like Rich parents and stuff and they sent him on this trip and then all of his friends got captured and killed and
Etc okay Harry asks a question that uh
can be addressed uh he wants to blah BL something everyday computer and gaming
server he needs a GPU with dual HDMI no you don't DVI is the same signal as HDMI
DVI to HDMI adapter is exactly the same
image quality as straight HDMI and vice versa for that matter
the only difference is that HDMI has half the bandwidth of dual link DV uh we
can leave that one out um yeah we can actually leave those for
next week because there's uh we've kind of run out of time I just want to see if
anyone else has um Tyler asks do I still have the
surface I do not that was only an eval unit I only got to hold on to it for
about two weeks I did really like it though this is this is time specific
steam sales there's tons of epic epic epic steam sales going on right now
Black Friday yeah um there's there's like some done by hours there's some
done by days like go check it out there's going to be new steam sales up
all the time and a lot of them are really good they have a couple I know
there's a Reddit thread for like all the the top discount ones so some of them
are like 80% 75% cool should check it out okay well I've been corrected onean
writes back in to say actually Linus you're wrong at 12 hz.
Biz hold on actually it's on sale and
are having good results bam sold out since November
1st so I don't know I don't know who's
right let's go back to Twitter uh let's see EVGA step up from
660 Ti s to 2680 is an S worth it hard to say depends how much you're paying
for it uh what's your experience yeah uh
Surface RT I really liked but I'm really
excited for Surface Pro Windows 8 full Windows 8 that's going to be actually
install things and fully use the OS truly awesome like super excited about
that oh yeah uh love it good ideas
something something what was the question we even asked I don't think anyone's answered
it I use xsplit what people want to see at CES yeah nobody answered
it uh yes this is a good monitor if the
surface prosos at CES you should do an in-depth article on that yes absolutely
absolutely this is good to hear okay know maybe I should change my answer
then maybe I should just like say I bite the bullet and go for Windows Eight go for gold what do you think of the g710
plus okay I've been sitting here for a while right um You have to hold it up
cuz they can't see it because it's covered by it is right here one of my first things that I noticed is the whole
don't know if you can see that so well oh yeah you can as I turn it like this
see all the glossy we talked about that earlier today the whole thing's glossy
and the whole time I've been sitting hold on that's not the whole thing caps
are M oh of course what do you mean of course there's a lot of glossy Razer
Razer has a glossy keyboard do they I would never yeah they have the laosa
leosa mirror was super
glossy I saw someone with it out of land
it was the most disgusting thing I'd ever seen okay anyways the whole time
I've been sitting here if you guys see me looking down a lot it's because I'm
grabbing my shirt like this and putting my finger in it so I can clean the
glossiness cuz it is just driving me insane already so I do not like that at
all um the keys feel good obviously I'm
a fan of Blues so I'm not really going to comment on that too much keycaps seem
pretty legit um there's a few things like game mode I wish that was a switch
okay rather than rather than a toggle button
um the you they can't see what you're doing I'm just saying right yeah I know
like the mute button and game mode should be switches in my opinion okay um
other than that it seems pretty legit the the build quality seems really good
really really good would you put it up there with filco and
ducky the build quality yeah uh see I'm already cleaning more of
the glossy stuff um I don't know I still
think I'd need more time with it okay but maybe close though close I think
it's like one of the biggest contenders so far but I still think FCO and ducky
would be it probably okay well thank you guys for
yeah yeah no F ducky still be it okay so
