thanks to Capital One shopping for sponsoring a portion of this video we

00:00:03.899 --> 00:00:10.620
just built a 69 gaming PC that is so

00:00:08.220 --> 00:00:16.680
blazing fast that it can play everything from CS go to Elden ring sort of all it

00:00:14.219 --> 00:00:21.119
took was an eBay workstation with a funny name and a lucky GPU score from

00:00:19.560 --> 00:00:27.660
our friend dude guy Everyman on Craigslist but what if we could give this budget

00:00:24.660 --> 00:00:29.880
Beauty another boost what new Feats of

00:00:27.660 --> 00:00:36.780
potency could it reach for a hundred and sixty nine dollars 269 or even four

00:00:34.440 --> 00:00:41.399
hundred twenty dollars spoiler alert it's gonna get really fast and you're

00:00:39.120 --> 00:00:45.960
gonna get really surprised what isn't going to surprise you is our sponsor

more about Capital One shopping later on in the video thanks to Capital One

00:00:59.160 --> 00:01:06.900
shopping for sponsoring that portion of the video what makes a gaming PC a

00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:11.580
gaming PC well it's the GPU obviously

00:01:06.900 --> 00:01:14.100
right and I mean sure our 30 GTX 760

00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:18.479
here will not be outdone in the bang for the buck department and yes it can

00:01:16.619 --> 00:01:23.159
technically play just about any game even tiny teenage wonderlands but if we

00:01:20.939 --> 00:01:27.240
want to do better than 720 NEP at the lowest possible settings this guy is

00:01:25.619 --> 00:01:30.960
going to be the first to go once our lawnmower business starts paying

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:36.060
dividends let's look at our contenders then at minimum we want four gigs of

00:01:33.659 --> 00:01:40.560
frame buffer memory or vram and we've got a hundred dollars to spend before we

00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:48.540
hit our next price tier that gives us options like the 1660 1650 super 1060

00:01:44.700 --> 00:01:51.600
and 970. we ended up going with a GTX

00:01:48.540 --> 00:01:54.420
1060. simply because back when we

00:01:51.600 --> 00:01:59.579
prepared this video RX 580 prices hadn't yet been annihilated by the ethereum

00:01:57.060 --> 00:02:04.200
merge so I guess I wasted a hundred bucks on this thing and I'm gonna go

00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:07.740
grab a Radeon RX 580 from the shelf and you should too

00:02:05.399 --> 00:02:12.900
we went with this dual OC model from ASUS but realistically you could go with

00:02:09.899 --> 00:02:15.360
just about any RX 580 as long as it's

00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:21.180
not one like this where it's got both an eight pin and a six pin power connector

00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:22.980
because our power supply only has a

00:02:21.180 --> 00:02:26.700
single extra Molex and while it does have extra satas and you can get

00:02:24.720 --> 00:02:32.840
adapters like this to use a card like this one

00:02:27.959 --> 00:02:32.840
I would not recommend this

00:02:33.420 --> 00:02:41.280
for minimal risk of fire then stick with the Dual six pin to eight pin adapter

00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:44.760
and a single 8-pin RX 580 or failing

00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:48.000
that you could go with a 570 a 480 or

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:49.140
470 or even a 1060 like we had specked

00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:53.879
out initially tool-less installation

00:02:51.900 --> 00:02:59.340
that's it let's play some games this my friends is why we wanted four

00:02:56.580 --> 00:03:04.440
gigs of frame buffer we're at 1080p High which can do maternal is basically like

00:03:01.500 --> 00:03:12.959
medium well we gaming ladies and gentlemen I mean okay it's not pinned at

00:03:09.060 --> 00:03:15.540
60fps but this is absolutely playable

00:03:12.959 --> 00:03:19.980
any dying that you see Happening Here is because of my lack of skill not because

00:03:17.940 --> 00:03:24.599
the game is not running well enough okay let's go again where's the bad guys at

00:03:21.780 --> 00:03:28.620
I'm only on the first level it doesn't this is definitely

00:03:26.940 --> 00:03:32.280
definitely playable and it doesn't even look it's not like

00:03:30.239 --> 00:03:37.560
oh yeah we turn in the details way down it looks like absolute hot garbage this

00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:41.519
looks fine I think this is really impressive but don't take my word for it

00:03:39.659 --> 00:03:44.940
look at these performance graphs I mean yeah we're spending nearly three times

00:03:43.200 --> 00:03:49.680
as much on the machine compared to where we started but there are also cases

00:03:47.640 --> 00:03:56.580
where we're getting nearly three times the performance that is great value for

00:03:52.739 --> 00:03:59.340
the dollar we are not done no no no I

00:03:56.580 --> 00:04:05.340
mean what is the point of rocking a brand new to us GPU if it's going to get

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:11.400
bottlenecked by our weak CPU the bad news is the locked down BIOS on our z420

00:04:08.340 --> 00:04:13.620
workstation does not support the next

00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:18.720
generation of Intel Xeon chips codename ivybridge the good news though is that

00:04:16.440 --> 00:04:24.240
many other boards from that era did support such upgrades so cast off Sandy

00:04:21.780 --> 00:04:28.680
Bridge chips even really high-end ones are cheap and plentiful the most

00:04:26.940 --> 00:04:34.380
powerful CPU supported by our mother board then is the E5

00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:35.759
2687w in single threaded tasks it might

00:04:34.380 --> 00:04:40.560
not be much more powerful than our existing E5 1620 but it has double the

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:45.900
number of cores double the number of threads and costs a mere 30 on eBay with

00:04:44.340 --> 00:04:49.560
many of the listings even covering shipping within the continental US score

00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:54.960
or unfortunately this CPU runs hot enough

00:04:52.620 --> 00:04:59.639
that HP figured it needed an all-in-one liquid cooler instead of

00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:04.740
this thing so I guess we'll need to upgrade that too not to an AIO though

00:05:02.699 --> 00:05:10.440
we've talked a fair bit about how water coolers are not always better than air

00:05:07.139 --> 00:05:12.780
coolers and this wimpy thing is a prime

00:05:10.440 --> 00:05:19.139
example meanwhile The Cooler Master hyper 212 Evo supports LGA 2011 and can

00:05:16.919 --> 00:05:24.840
be had for the very attractive price of about 20 Canadian pesos so at about 15

00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:29.160
real dollars to the cost of our CPU another five to ten for some thermal

00:05:26.699 --> 00:05:37.080
paste and I'm expecting a pretty nice uplift for 50 here what is up with this

00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:42.900
this is a five pin band connector oh man

00:05:37.080 --> 00:05:45.240
I love hddt I love hddt cooler installs

00:05:42.900 --> 00:05:50.160
take our fan pop that on there and now we just gotta plug

00:05:46.860 --> 00:05:52.199
ah this is a four pin Fan industry

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:56.820
standard remember on the motherboard we had that five pin fan header well a

00:05:55.139 --> 00:06:01.740
quick Google search later you find a post from user silent BOGO on the tech

00:05:59.280 --> 00:06:06.479
PowerUp forums who tells us that the motherboard header is actually a four

00:06:03.960 --> 00:06:09.660
pin fan header but just with two ground connectors one on either side of the

00:06:08.580 --> 00:06:15.960
active pins so our workaround is to take a four pin

00:06:13.080 --> 00:06:20.220
fan splitter and use that to make it work conveniently you can find these in

00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:24.300
two packs on Amazon for about five bucks here's a little Tech tip for you we're

00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:28.500
just gonna pop these pins out then we take our connectors in the exact same

00:06:26.280 --> 00:06:33.479
order and we're going to put them in on this side

00:06:30.419 --> 00:06:37.440
all right now we can take our standard

00:06:33.479 --> 00:06:39.479
fan plug it into here standard four pin

00:06:37.440 --> 00:06:43.680
connector and we've ripped off our proprietary five pin connector and we

00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:46.680
can plug that into the board yay

00:06:50.039 --> 00:06:55.620
really what really you guys now you

00:06:53.699 --> 00:06:59.699
don't tell me what cooling I need the bad news is that this is not the only

00:06:58.080 --> 00:07:05.520
ridiculous error that could have you pressing F1 every time you want to boot

00:07:03.300 --> 00:07:09.720
your computer the good news is that every single one of these errors has a

00:07:07.440 --> 00:07:13.919
solution that is both inexpensive and can be executed with standard household

00:07:11.520 --> 00:07:17.880
tools but to show you how many things can cause these sorts of problems let's

00:07:16.139 --> 00:07:25.380
go ahead and shut the system back off and unplug some stuff

00:07:20.520 --> 00:07:26.759
let's unplug the RAM fan front USB let's

00:07:25.380 --> 00:07:33.440
take out this one sure and whoops all right let's fire it back

00:07:31.259 --> 00:07:39.599
up to be clear it's kind of a cool feature

00:07:37.620 --> 00:07:43.440
actually it's just not the most convenient for you know performing janky

00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:48.300
upgrades so let's get everything restored to

00:07:45.900 --> 00:07:53.639
factory the one we can't put back though is this one which presumably is using

00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:56.880
that fifth pin to sense whether you have a water cooler or not the really

00:07:55.380 --> 00:08:02.460
frustrating part of this is that if we adopted for the slightly less powerful

00:07:59.400 --> 00:08:05.280
E5 2690 we probably could have avoided

00:08:02.460 --> 00:08:10.500
this problem altogether the 2690 is nearly identical to our W workstation

00:08:08.220 --> 00:08:15.720
chip in every way it's even the same price on eBay but its base clock is 200

00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:21.000
megahertz slower and therefore its TDP is only 120 watts instead of the 150

00:08:19.259 --> 00:08:26.099
watt monster that we're rocking now thankfully silent vogo chronicled their

00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:30.780
Journey performing a case transplant on a similar z620 workstation and we were

00:08:29.039 --> 00:08:36.240
able to adapt some of their findings to help defeat the evil Lord HP BIOS let's

00:08:33.959 --> 00:08:40.800
walk through it but first let's walk through today's sponsor Capital One

sponsoring that portion of the video let's walk through it silent pogo's post

00:09:23.700 --> 00:09:31.680
mentioned that pin one on the CPU fan might have been the sensor for a second

00:09:29.220 --> 00:09:35.339
fan and looking at photos of the official water cooler it certainly

00:09:33.180 --> 00:09:39.899
appears that that cable goes somewhere instead of just looping back to ground

00:09:37.740 --> 00:09:44.339
like it does on the stock cooler want to know why because in an air cooled

00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:50.700
configuration the system is only expecting one fan so that extra pin well

00:09:47.820 --> 00:09:56.820
that goes to ground no problem but in a water cooled configuration it's

00:09:52.740 --> 00:09:59.040
expecting two fans so for that reason we

00:09:56.820 --> 00:10:04.740
actually need to jump that fifth pin to the tack pin which is in the middle

00:10:01.820 --> 00:10:09.060
we've already done the work I'll turn up the workers sort of mediocreatly done

00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:12.660
should probably be soldered but this is good enough for us to show you guys that

00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:16.740
it will work the one thing to be really careful of guys while you're jumping

00:10:15.180 --> 00:10:22.980
pins between each other on a fan connector is please don't connect your

00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:29.519
ground to your 12 volt that could start a fire yes yes ignore this extra black

00:10:27.779 --> 00:10:32.519
lead that's hanging off of here that was from one of the early experiments when

00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:38.519
we were still trying to figure this out oh my goodness still trying to figure this out ready

00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:42.600
and with the CPU actually upgraded this time

00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:46.380
here it comes front chassis fan not detected

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:51.240
oh crap the good news is there's a quick and

00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:53.640
easy solution to this unfortunately it

00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:59.040
costs 40 dollars why do they even need a special bracket

00:10:56.279 --> 00:11:03.240
for the fan just put just put mounting holes like everyone else so we're not

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:08.220
going to buy that what we are going to do is we're going to buy a two pack of

00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:12.600
those fan Splitters we showed you guys before which fortunately costs the same

00:11:10.920 --> 00:11:17.519
for some reason and we're going to make ourselves another little fix by

00:11:15.779 --> 00:11:21.959
salvaging some fan connector pins from our work earlier shorting pins three and

00:11:20.220 --> 00:11:27.660
four like this which obviously will protect by putting something over top of

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:29.880
them and then shaving off this guide

00:11:27.660 --> 00:11:35.420
here with a pair of blush Cutters we are able to put without installing another

00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:37.440
fan which we don't have the bracket for

00:11:35.420 --> 00:11:42.779
this one here which should allow us once and for all

00:11:40.380 --> 00:11:48.720
to boot the freaking thing up no F1

00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:51.720
here it is the big moment

00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.720
nice

00:11:52.920 --> 00:12:01.200
okay all I need to do is close up the

00:11:58.079 --> 00:12:03.540
are you kidding me thing looks like a

00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:08.519
bloody Tesla it's the heat pipe from the cooler causing the problem thankfully

00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:10.079
though there's a quick and easy solution

00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:14.160
speed holes off camera we just put a little bit of

00:12:12.060 --> 00:12:18.480
like goop like paint or something on the top of the heat pipes then put it on so

00:12:16.680 --> 00:12:20.660
that it would Mark the spots and then we just

00:12:21.480 --> 00:12:28.200
parfait less parfait not crap

00:12:25.940 --> 00:12:34.320
should have put some masking tape on you know what no let's see if we

00:12:31.339 --> 00:12:37.380
these are not even close dude but wait wait why did I even close this up we're

00:12:36.180 --> 00:12:46.260
not even done with this stage of the upgrade yet ow currently our system has two sticks

00:12:43.980 --> 00:12:50.399
of memory in it which means that we're not making proper use of our Xeon

00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:54.360
processors quad Channel memory controller one way to fix this would be

00:12:52.320 --> 00:13:00.120
to try to match the RAM that's in there with two more sticks but there can be a

00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:04.320
little bit of trial and error especially on workstation and server boards which

00:13:01.980 --> 00:13:08.279
tend to be a little bit pickier so we took the easy path and grabbed four

00:13:06.420 --> 00:13:17.600
matching sticks of ECC DDR3 for about 30 bucks that is

00:13:13.740 --> 00:13:21.060
less than a dollar per Gigabyte

00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:22.980
oh whoa nice party trick but wait

00:13:21.060 --> 00:13:25.920
there's more depending how much you spent on your RAM upgrade your budget

00:13:24.420 --> 00:13:30.959
for this could vary but you should have anywhere between 15 and 30 dollars left

00:13:28.740 --> 00:13:35.459
to spend on a two and a half gig network card that'll go a long way towards

00:13:33.420 --> 00:13:39.420
modernizing our system for our high speed Network transfers we're using a

00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:43.980
card from Trend net which is technically out of our budget but it was lying

00:13:41.579 --> 00:13:47.760
around in the warehouse well we're connected at two and a half gigabit per

00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:51.560
second so that's good but because of other system bottlenecks we weren't able

00:13:49.500 --> 00:13:58.680
to crack around 800 megabit so maybe we can address that

00:13:55.800 --> 00:14:04.440
later but first let's play around with our two 69 gaming PC

00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:08.100
oh here's our eight cores and 16 threads by the way pretty sick

00:14:06.959 --> 00:14:13.380
yeah I know I would say this is running meaningfully better I think it's pretty

00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:17.459
clear from the FPS counter in the corner that we're not getting way higher frame

00:14:15.420 --> 00:14:22.440
rates than we were before with our eight core CPU they are significantly more

00:14:20.220 --> 00:14:27.779
consistent and that's a really good thing because it's making the game feel

00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:29.940
a lot more you know smoother than the

00:14:27.779 --> 00:14:34.260
FPS counter would indicate that's awesome

00:14:31.139 --> 00:14:38.040
great our 99th percentile low frame

00:14:34.260 --> 00:14:40.920
times are equivalent to over 100 FPS man

00:14:38.040 --> 00:14:45.839
you want to play some GTA 5. we don't have it cranked or anything but

00:14:43.079 --> 00:14:51.180
the game is running pretty high we're still pinned at like 120 FPS which

00:14:48.300 --> 00:14:55.620
yes it's not the city but like damn what's not to like here this is enough

00:14:53.519 --> 00:15:01.740
performance for 1080p gaming in pretty much any game you'd want to play at 269

00:14:58.740 --> 00:15:05.339
dollars absolutely amazing for the price

00:15:01.740 --> 00:15:07.680
but I want more more what well as I

00:15:05.339 --> 00:15:13.260
alluded to before I think we could have better storage in this system now that I

00:15:09.959 --> 00:15:15.180
can play so many games 256 gigs isn't

00:15:13.260 --> 00:15:20.880
going to be enough to satisfy me and while I could just sell off your my

00:15:17.820 --> 00:15:22.740
precious GTX 760 and use my 23 to

00:15:20.880 --> 00:15:26.160
patiently wait for a one terabyte hard drive to show up somewhere

00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:31.920
I want this PC to be better than that the smart choice is probably a 512 gig

00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:37.500
or one terabyte two and a half inch SSD like this something like an adata Su 760

00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:43.740
is going to give me a dram cache drive for only 50 bucks for 512 or 85 dollars

00:15:40.620 --> 00:15:47.220
for a terabyte but our next budget tier

00:15:43.740 --> 00:15:49.860
is 369 dollars and this amount of spare

00:15:47.220 --> 00:15:57.899
cash has me not really thinking straight here I'm thinking high speed NVMe Drive

00:15:54.180 --> 00:15:59.040
I mean yes this computer predates NVMe

00:15:57.899 --> 00:16:03.480
drives but I don't care I'm flush with cash and

00:16:01.740 --> 00:16:07.800
throwing caution to the wind problem number one is that modern NVMe drives

00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:13.139
are almost exclusively available in the m.2 form factor and our motherboard has

00:16:10.620 --> 00:16:17.579
no m.2 slot but I've already kind of given away the solution here you can get

00:16:15.060 --> 00:16:22.579
cards like this one from Angel bird that allow you to adapt a regular old PCI

00:16:20.100 --> 00:16:27.360
Express slot to an m.2 slot and the reason that these

00:16:25.740 --> 00:16:32.279
are so inexpensive is because they're not actually really doing anything see

00:16:29.880 --> 00:16:35.480
here's all your power pins over here and here's all your data pins over here and

00:16:34.079 --> 00:16:39.839
they just go right there we have this fancy looking

00:16:38.040 --> 00:16:42.959
one from Angel bird lying around but there is no reason that you couldn't

00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:49.440
just use an off-brand one which should run you around 13 then for our drive we

00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:55.800
picked up the second hand Samsung 970 Evo one terabyte that cost us a hundred

00:16:52.259 --> 00:16:58.800
and 120 Canadian dineros which is about

00:16:55.800 --> 00:17:00.480
equivalent to 87 real dollars at the

00:16:58.800 --> 00:17:05.699
time of filming anyway actually that's probably at the time of calculating it a

00:17:02.220 --> 00:17:08.480
week ago which uh there we go

00:17:05.699 --> 00:17:08.480
we're done

00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:16.740
no or not see that there isn't even a sub menu in

00:17:13.919 --> 00:17:21.839
the BIOS for NVMe drives but that doesn't mean that the system can't see

00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:27.780
it if we boot into Windows from our SATA drive it actually shows up in device

00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:29.940
manager as a PCIe device it just doesn't

00:17:27.780 --> 00:17:35.400
show up as a drive so we need to find a workaround

00:17:31.980 --> 00:17:38.039
thankfully we can take a page from the

00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:42.960
Hackintosh user's manual so all we need is a USB drive that we don't need

00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:48.600
anymore one gig or larger doesn't even need to be USB 3 then we're going to put

00:17:45.780 --> 00:17:53.400
the Clover bootloader on it and allow our system to boot from the flash drive

00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:57.840
Clover can understand what NVMe drives are which means that it can bridge the

00:17:55.080 --> 00:18:04.020
gap between our system which can boot to USB and clover which can read our NVMe

00:18:01.260 --> 00:18:08.400
drive now we don't really want a USB drive sticking off of our system if we

00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:13.440
can avoid it so if we want to hide it but also ensure that it stays put we can

00:18:10.980 --> 00:18:17.640
scrounge up an old front panel USB connection from an old case that maybe

00:18:15.360 --> 00:18:23.240
somebody's getting rid of plug our drive into one of the many open USB 2 headers

00:18:20.580 --> 00:18:23.240
on our motherboard

00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:33.179
okay there it is now we can boot from our

00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:35.820
Kingston data traveler 3.0 here we go

00:18:33.179 --> 00:18:39.600
automatic boot in one second uh by the way if you don't want to just leave this

00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:43.160
hang in here you could use an LTT Store cable tie to hold it in place

00:18:43.919 --> 00:18:52.799
there now it will never move this is immediately noticeably faster

00:18:49.220 --> 00:18:55.200
it's responsive you know what I mean

00:18:52.799 --> 00:19:01.440
like let's uh here let's fire up let's fire up steam bring up task manager like

00:18:57.419 --> 00:19:03.780
this does not feel like a eight-year-old

00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:07.860
system we're back in game now the performance is very similar to what we

00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:12.600
had before but that's not the point of fast storage this is the point of fast

00:19:10.380 --> 00:19:17.000
storage boom I'll Tab out I'm doing stuff I'm using my computer I'll tab

00:19:15.299 --> 00:19:23.460
well I make sure I hit the right window and I'm back in my game it's the

00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:27.900
responsiveness that's what makes this feel like a modern new system and not

00:19:25.980 --> 00:19:34.020
something from eight years ago but we're not done yet we promised you guys a 420

00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:38.700
computer didn't we I was told I was getting fifty dollars in RGB lighting

00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:42.360
and this is what they handed me I guess that's fair enough at this budget that

00:19:40.980 --> 00:19:47.100
would be a pretty stupid thing to spend another fifty dollars on actually I

00:19:45.179 --> 00:19:52.140
would probably go the route of adding a little bit more GPU power maybe step up

00:19:49.320 --> 00:19:56.039
to something like a 5700 or something along those lines but realistically I

00:19:54.600 --> 00:20:00.720
don't feel like most people are gonna feel like they need to upgrade this

00:19:57.600 --> 00:20:04.140
thing this is cyberpunk 27 seven running

00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:09.539
on basically High presets what's our

00:20:04.140 --> 00:20:12.780
99th percentile lows here like 37 35 FPS

00:20:09.539 --> 00:20:15.360
no it's not perfect but there is no

00:20:12.780 --> 00:20:21.240
question whatsoever that this is playable which means basically you can

00:20:18.179 --> 00:20:24.120
play any game and at this price point

00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:28.620
that is quite the accomplishment if you like this video check out the first

00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:32.700
video where we built the 69 rig or maybe the extended version of it on float

00:20:30.299 --> 00:20:36.200
plane we included some too hot for our sponsors bits in there
