1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,920
imagine the kind of PC this kid would build pretty awful now imagine he never

2
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:13,559
stopped that's right that kid was me is

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:18,119
that supposed to be a chalking twist today we're going to be roasting the

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:23,039
cringiest most embarrassing builds from my past and who better to join me than

5
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:27,420
two of my kindest most gracious paid friends three if you count our sponsor

6
00:00:25,260 --> 00:00:33,300
Lenovo who's featuring their brand new Creator focused yoga Pro 9 eye known in

7
00:00:30,779 --> 00:00:39,440
North America as the Lenovo slim Pro 9i with Intel 13th gen processors and

8
00:00:35,579 --> 00:00:39,440
NVIDIA 40 series laptop graphics

9
00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:51,719
oh man where do we start our tour at the

10
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:56,219
beginning I'm gonna have great context for all this stuff that was done when I

11
00:00:53,820 --> 00:00:58,820
was two years old I can't wait till

12
00:01:00,059 --> 00:01:06,240
this is how big this picture is it's a recovery from when I lost all of my

13
00:01:04,559 --> 00:01:11,540
pictures and was only able to recover thumbnail sized images how old are you

14
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:14,400
here well that's not me yeah

15
00:01:11,540 --> 00:01:19,500
thanks Jake I don't know but this is my setup my hand-me-down setup from my

16
00:01:16,740 --> 00:01:25,500
uncle who was ditching his Pentium 166. holy

17
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:29,900
z985 sticker is legit is that a receiver

18
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:29,900
no no that's a tape deck

19
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:36,299
this is the 2002 baby I love the corded

20
00:01:34,259 --> 00:01:40,619
phone too that was to talk to my girlfriend that you can't use at the

21
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:44,820
same time as a computer yeah when did MSN Messenger come out 2005. oh yeah I

22
00:01:42,780 --> 00:01:50,939
was using MSN by this okay okay yeah yeah oh yeah when did him at 2005. I

23
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:54,960
chatted with my sweetheart 09. that was Yvonne's handle with all the like cringy

24
00:01:52,979 --> 00:01:59,159
like x's and brackets and stuff and everything around it yeah this is my

25
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:04,140
bedroom yeah the green how did you get a match desk that was one of my parents

26
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:09,739
most proud Christmas gifts for me I asked for Warcraft 2 and what I got

27
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:14,760
was furniture yeah they were super pleased with their

28
00:02:12,540 --> 00:02:19,620
way of supporting my computer hobby without actually getting me any computer

29
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:24,360
stuff or games ever I was fine with the desk I had before in fact this desk was

30
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:29,580
kind of awful how much uh mousing space Also that we got here 2002 first

31
00:02:27,420 --> 00:02:34,319
computer I ever built for a client there's your MSN Messenger who's Tyson

32
00:02:31,980 --> 00:02:37,440
uh my friend in high school wait so you built a computer for your client and

33
00:02:35,819 --> 00:02:43,319
then installed MSN on it and talked to your friend don't ask me why I was doing that I mean

34
00:02:41,580 --> 00:02:46,019
his computer was probably better than the one I had at the time so maybe I was

35
00:02:44,879 --> 00:02:51,599
using it for a little bit before delivery I don't know burn-in period I

36
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:57,060
suspect Lyle is like an alter ego and he just got it for himself no no he's dead

37
00:02:53,280 --> 00:03:00,420
oh oh my first gaming PC with a

38
00:02:57,060 --> 00:03:02,879
dedicated GPU let's go wow that is it

39
00:03:00,420 --> 00:03:08,459
like translucent plastic yeah it was meant to match that era of iMac which my

40
00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:12,959
parents thought was super cool and got for me not realizing that my keyboard

41
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:16,860
was in fact about 40 percent wider than the Apple keyboard at the time and

42
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:19,860
therefore in order to use it this is the technique I developed yeah you figured

43
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:25,080
it out right you're actually using an ergo keyboard hey yeah well that really

44
00:03:22,260 --> 00:03:30,780
that was what I was given ah somebody cared about you yep you're 16. you could

45
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:35,040
have got a job oh I had a job I had a job many years wait

46
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:39,480
no which is how I afford it look this is two years after he's 18. he should have

47
00:03:36,659 --> 00:03:44,879
moved his ass out by then this is my first build with a dedicated GPU this is

48
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:48,840
still Athlon XP so same CPU as my original build but I've upgraded from a

49
00:03:46,620 --> 00:03:51,659
motherboard with onboard Graphics to an ASUS motherboard that's pretty big I

50
00:03:50,580 --> 00:03:57,000
feel like you guys aren't looking closely enough oh my God I saw that see

51
00:03:55,500 --> 00:04:00,239
my problem was I was completely fine with that yeah see like I don't know if

52
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:04,080
he's the best person for this video have you seen some of the Jake he's done

53
00:04:01,739 --> 00:04:08,400
beautiful see I yeah this works for me is that just cable management

54
00:04:06,659 --> 00:04:12,420
electrical tape yeah but there's no window so who cares uh no this can this

55
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:16,979
case had a window oh it had a window oh yeah do you have unplugged headers in

56
00:04:14,340 --> 00:04:23,040
the bottom right no back then your audio headers were either standard HD audio or

57
00:04:20,940 --> 00:04:26,160
you had to do the old PC 97 audio where you had to do each one individually so

58
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:29,340
that was the extras hanging off did you plan on having more hard drives you just

59
00:04:27,660 --> 00:04:33,120
put the fans there for looks I mean looks is a bit I think that's for the

60
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:38,520
GPS yeah it's for GPU cooling that's my all in Wonder 9600 Pro cable manage is

61
00:04:36,060 --> 00:04:44,780
great all right I expected you guys to roast me for the cable management oh no

62
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:47,460
I just was no sarcasm I see all that fan

63
00:04:44,780 --> 00:04:52,020
whoa was that something you could buy or you painted that I found some UV

64
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:57,660
reactive waterborne paint on an art supply store

65
00:04:54,259 --> 00:04:59,280
I mean at this is 2004. you went to the

66
00:04:57,660 --> 00:05:04,080
store no I had to order this online really no you can find this stuff in

67
00:05:01,199 --> 00:05:10,680
store this was this was Niche you painted the blades too I did however Buy

68
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:13,740
AI also online this UV reactive IDE and

69
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:17,060
floppy cable set this UV green sleeving

70
00:05:13,740 --> 00:05:19,800
and this Arctic Cooling

71
00:05:17,060 --> 00:05:24,600
GPU shroud I was going to ask that's not a new GPU is it nope nice it's got its

72
00:05:22,380 --> 00:05:29,639
own slot caption for this you merely adopted the three slot GPU I was born in

73
00:05:27,780 --> 00:05:33,720
it molded by it I need like some tape to cover up the

74
00:05:31,380 --> 00:05:39,539
top so you can't see that I mean tape in here

75
00:05:35,780 --> 00:05:41,580
that's the old P6 connector I apparently

76
00:05:39,539 --> 00:05:46,500
just cut it off so wait you said you got a cable kit no no it's leaving oh and

77
00:05:44,100 --> 00:05:49,100
there's just that one IDE cable thing so yeah really good quality UV heat shrink

78
00:05:48,300 --> 00:05:54,660
here those cables that he bought would have

79
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,880
come all pre-done oh well these ones yes

80
00:05:54,660 --> 00:05:59,940
yes oh yeah I see the girls and then the the stuff that looks terrible would have

81
00:05:58,620 --> 00:06:03,979
been what he did yeah I put some UV accents on the top of the

82
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:08,699
heatsink here is that on purpose or you just dropping

83
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:14,940
that's actually just Jank like that actually just looks terrible I'm I'm

84
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:18,300
like quite Pro like the like dude what

85
00:06:14,940 --> 00:06:20,639
you can setups but just painting poorly

86
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:25,380
painting the tips of that heatsink half of them Wow Let's Go I mean is that how

87
00:06:23,819 --> 00:06:29,400
you left them the heatsink still looks like trash that's what I'm saying the

88
00:06:27,060 --> 00:06:34,860
rest of it the rest of it's like not that bad but the heatsink looks terrible

89
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:37,800
not that bad yeah okay those sleeves

90
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:41,039
look okay are they managed well no but this like he doesn't have the Shroud on

91
00:06:39,419 --> 00:06:45,120
in this picture yet so I think this is an earlier picture I think this is actually where he's like testing the UV

92
00:06:43,919 --> 00:06:49,500
it's like you know what this looks like to me when you when you see a horror movie and they have like props that were

93
00:06:48,419 --> 00:06:54,419
designed by somebody that doesn't actually know what the like the thing is

94
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:57,180
supposed to look like they just computers they throw things in there

95
00:06:55,860 --> 00:07:02,460
yeah that looks like a computer that's what Linus made is this where the lambo

96
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:04,020
RAM is that really just you left that

97
00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:07,620
there you just were you actually having cooling problems with your RAM or you

98
00:07:05,580 --> 00:07:12,000
just wanted pink the UV paint came in a kit oh my God you've painted it orange

99
00:07:09,539 --> 00:07:19,520
that was a choice this was when I bought the UV pen I didn't think I had any

100
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:19,520
pictures of this I used it oh my God

101
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:28,280
I must have cleaned the GPU at some point because I think I had problems

102
00:07:24,539 --> 00:07:28,280
with that makes sense

103
00:07:31,979 --> 00:07:37,500
I think that was here I can't even give you those points I just like that the

104
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:42,840
CPU Cooler was two-tone he did green underneath and orange blades my first

105
00:07:40,199 --> 00:07:46,680
surround sound speaker setup I like the height one of them is Linus height the

106
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:51,060
other one was hung by his dad still learning the alphabet there I see okay

107
00:07:48,780 --> 00:07:57,240
this is the other oh so that's your Aid your next set yeah yep Logitech Zed 680s

108
00:07:54,300 --> 00:08:03,419
this is post UV paint hey you got a new keyboard though yes and that Logitech MX

109
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:05,400
Duo big upgrade and a freebie mouse pad

110
00:08:03,419 --> 00:08:11,280
you're not even using it well it was awful yeah it was truly awful ah no

111
00:08:08,580 --> 00:08:14,819
that's cool wow no I'm I'm on board I would unironically use a power supply

112
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:19,740
like this today if I could why is your blanket on Twitter I don't know

113
00:08:17,180 --> 00:08:23,520
insulation man what are you even really trying to take a picture of right now

114
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:28,440
what is that on the side of the desk that is a UV light I wasn't happy with

115
00:08:26,340 --> 00:08:32,700
the amount of UV light that I could get from just the the little computer-sized

116
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:36,959
ones so that's why your side panel is always off because you had an external

117
00:08:34,140 --> 00:08:42,959
UV light oh that might be it and external Powers that's a full that's

118
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:47,399
a full dick like black light from probably Spencer's Gifts or like San

119
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:52,459
Francisco or something that was a chain store here that had Novelties and sex

120
00:08:49,560 --> 00:09:00,120
toys and stuff whoa this was an exciting upgrade Athlon 64

121
00:08:55,500 --> 00:09:02,220
baby and one of the dumbest decisions I

122
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:06,899
ever made this heatsink from Swift Tech was

123
00:09:03,839 --> 00:09:09,839
awful oh I'm sure and very expensive

124
00:09:06,899 --> 00:09:13,920
these were helical coils I have no doubt they spent a ton of money building the

125
00:09:11,339 --> 00:09:17,820
thing but the performance was dog crap and I bought it completely sight unseen

126
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:21,540
no reviews learned a valuable lesson yeah this is my test bench and literally

127
00:09:19,500 --> 00:09:25,980
my mom's basement what is that spray yeah

128
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:28,440
lubricating spray fun fact I still own

129
00:09:25,980 --> 00:09:33,779
this can it is at my house on a shelf I used it using it for it I used it to

130
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,820
lubricate the back door like a month ago

131
00:09:33,779 --> 00:09:41,040
no but what we're using it for here I have no idea

132
00:09:38,220 --> 00:09:44,940
nice see I I think that's cool it is cool okay this is I still don't

133
00:09:43,140 --> 00:09:48,480
understand like what why did you take a picture right now though you're like 80

134
00:09:46,980 --> 00:09:53,760
of the way to your cable management being done and you're like a picture was

135
00:09:51,899 --> 00:09:57,300
that painters tape like on the power supply

136
00:09:54,959 --> 00:10:00,779
yes that's funny hey that actually works

137
00:09:58,860 --> 00:10:04,680
okay though yeah but you can see them all inside what difference does it make

138
00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:08,700
it would be worse if it wasn't there uh I don't know can I you can see the cable

139
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:16,040
still go to the next photo like are we gonna get another angle where you can still totally see the the rainbow

140
00:10:11,700 --> 00:10:20,040
spaghett yep nice okay

141
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:23,100
done a better job oh man Intel inside no

142
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:25,620
AMD AMD

143
00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:29,220
did you do that yourself no I bought it from ADP I was gonna say that looks

144
00:10:27,060 --> 00:10:33,180
actually pretty good so I doubt it oh yeah

145
00:10:31,019 --> 00:10:39,060
yeah also I could play you got a desk only the finest games yeah yeah

146
00:10:35,940 --> 00:10:41,880
big desk upgrade big desk energy he

147
00:10:39,060 --> 00:10:46,320
finally got the mouse pad upgrade piece of A4 paper he cut it to size though

148
00:10:44,459 --> 00:10:49,800
nope nope that's full size it's just taped down to the desk so it doesn't

149
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:55,980
move I was a speaker's boy I spent all my money on speakers and I was literally

150
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:58,920
in my parents basement hey is that a

151
00:10:55,980 --> 00:11:02,760
tire that oh these are those ones this is threaded Rod just like some weird

152
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:09,120
bracket um piece of metal you had laying around and a tire that happened to thread into

153
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:12,240
the thing did you take it from like a wheelbarrow or you bought that at the

154
00:11:10,260 --> 00:11:17,339
hardware store no no my dad helps me with this he bought this specifically

155
00:11:14,279 --> 00:11:19,200
this is all new designed like this yes

156
00:11:17,339 --> 00:11:22,680
by Design I mean it worked it was probably cheaper than buying I grew up

157
00:11:20,940 --> 00:11:26,700
in shanty town you got to make stuff happen not everything needs to be

158
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:31,980
perfect I'm still I still can't uh let you go on the the paper Mouse you

159
00:11:29,339 --> 00:11:39,360
clearly had the the funds to get a mouse pad I was buying more lights

160
00:11:35,060 --> 00:11:41,339
UV paint all right it's 2005 baby oh

161
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:44,100
this is an iconic photo it's your village called the idiot is missing

162
00:11:42,959 --> 00:11:48,899
what's on your screen what's going on are you pirating right now is that like

163
00:11:45,959 --> 00:11:52,680
LimeWire this is probably pyrus that looks like some form of I remember the

164
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:56,220
icons at the bottom of like LimeWire and FrostWire I'm pretty sure that's

165
00:11:54,000 --> 00:12:02,100
LimeWire I literally have five hundred dollars speakers and a broken three

166
00:11:59,820 --> 00:12:07,680
dollar desk yeah you have two monitors now hey yep yeah was that one also a

167
00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:11,760
hand-me-down no the black one is super expensive you bought that p95f plus did

168
00:12:10,019 --> 00:12:15,779
you have a job at this time oh yeah what were you doing and I'm lifeguarding at

169
00:12:13,620 --> 00:12:18,959
this point you can't tell because I wear shirts that are too big for me but I'm

170
00:12:17,220 --> 00:12:23,399
actually like kind of jacked because I'm doing martial arts and lifeguarding

171
00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:25,440
quick flex but okay yeah no this is the

172
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:30,180
best shape I was ever in in my life I look like a tool obviously but the

173
00:12:28,140 --> 00:12:33,959
monitor's good I mean it doesn't compare to how far we've come but pure site

174
00:12:32,279 --> 00:12:39,300
probing the LED touch screen on this thing is 3K resolution so literally four

175
00:12:37,019 --> 00:12:43,680
times as many pixels as that monitor a hundred percent coverage of the srgv DC

176
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:47,040
ip3 and Adobe RGB color space automatic switching and a Delta e of less than one

177
00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:51,959
out of the box that thing by comparison actual garbage first Rattle can paint

178
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,339
job I thought it was just like dark lighting

179
00:12:54,480 --> 00:13:00,380
yeah I feel like this has been like you and Bob spray painted a silver case

180
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:06,300
silver I feel like it's pretty similar no no

181
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:07,680
my compute no no no I reject no

182
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:12,000
heatsinks on your RAM I'm kind of disappointed wait this is this is later

183
00:13:09,420 --> 00:13:16,740
this is my first water cooling setup I was gonna say thermaltake big water SC

184
00:13:14,399 --> 00:13:20,100
baby hey there's my UV paint though have you bought like multiple kits at this

185
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:28,579
point nope remember it was hard to find special order it was oh my God it's baby

186
00:13:24,839 --> 00:13:28,579
Yvonne fun fact

187
00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:34,560
same did she just like wearing that or did

188
00:13:33,060 --> 00:13:42,000
you take a picture set desktop backer and then take another picture truthfully I don't know this is when I moved into

189
00:13:38,519 --> 00:13:43,980
Yvonne's parents house oh

190
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:47,579
man you had class back then moving into your girlfriend's house girlfriend's

191
00:13:45,540 --> 00:13:52,339
parents house sorry sorry shout out Sophia and Albert

192
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,360
guys are awesome still got the speakers

193
00:13:52,339 --> 00:13:58,260
they're actually in surround configuration now not rear right beside

194
00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:02,339
your head I think the desk is an upgrade though because the the previous one was

195
00:14:00,420 --> 00:14:07,740
uneven yeah and now he's got space for his UV paint yeah I will say despite all

196
00:14:05,639 --> 00:14:13,139
of the changes he still doesn't have his speakers behind his monitor Athlon 64 X2

197
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:18,959
there it is still the single most expensive computer component I've ever

198
00:14:14,940 --> 00:14:20,339
bought it was about 700 750 for a CPU

199
00:14:18,959 --> 00:14:26,760
that's when things started getting like actually kind of sick though what 2005

200
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:28,500
2006 baby this is 2005 on the photo then

201
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:33,540
the metadata must be wrong this was uh yeah so late 2005. I don't know why this

202
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:39,600
picture exists well thanks for sharing it with us my first SLI setup yeah these

203
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:42,660
are 7 800 GTX did you paint those

204
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,399
heatsinks too yeah those look like

205
00:14:42,660 --> 00:14:48,600
official those are from salmon those are just blue heat sinks oh you just put

206
00:14:46,199 --> 00:14:52,980
them on aftermarket yeah my first custom water cooling setup a few big jumps are

207
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:58,019
you making more money now did you job switch at this point I'm at NCIX at this

208
00:14:55,440 --> 00:15:02,399
point okay okay yeah because I'm like there's the iPhone X2 is a big jump

209
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:08,160
custom water cooling is a big jump in expense wait am I at NCIX yet no I'm not

210
00:15:05,579 --> 00:15:11,699
at NCIX yet I'm painting houses now oh so now you got some money yeah I have a

211
00:15:09,959 --> 00:15:15,959
little bit this uh that Swift Tech Block we still have that don't we we do up

212
00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:21,660
into the left of the what what's that what a wonderful question that is a fan

213
00:15:19,199 --> 00:15:27,420
I destructively clipped off of an Arctic cooling freezer something it was this

214
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:28,980
weird l-bracketed fan that they built

215
00:15:27,420 --> 00:15:34,740
specifically for one of their Tower coolers and I was like you're useful and

216
00:15:32,220 --> 00:15:39,779
I added all these heat sinks to my vrms and then clipped that fan there sick

217
00:15:37,199 --> 00:15:43,440
maybe double-sided tape I enjoyed I enjoyed the like aftermarket heatsink

218
00:15:41,639 --> 00:15:47,880
stuff when that was in Vogue for a little while that was the pump

219
00:15:45,060 --> 00:15:52,139
got the classy Worm Drive clamps yeah well you don't want it to leak do you

220
00:15:49,620 --> 00:15:56,880
flash photography oh you upgraded the tape the tape is better no it's not tape

221
00:15:54,600 --> 00:16:02,760
that oh wait is it this is giant heat shrink it didn't shrink I just stretched

222
00:16:00,779 --> 00:16:07,560
it on there by putting one of the cables in at a time and we're like reefing on

223
00:16:05,339 --> 00:16:10,100
it yeah it looks worse than the tape really

224
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:16,500
worth level your level your shirts

225
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:22,320
look at how stupid I am was The Village Idiot now Evolution went

226
00:16:18,779 --> 00:16:24,560
wrong oh my God this is a big step

227
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:29,519
forward I posted this on Extreme systems so I

228
00:16:27,839 --> 00:16:33,540
had these little captions to explain what I was doing because it wasn't

229
00:16:31,260 --> 00:16:37,380
evident from just the picture itself so this was a birthday present yes this was

230
00:16:35,699 --> 00:16:42,120
a birthday present from Yvonne can you tell she's a keeper yeah I bought

231
00:16:39,779 --> 00:16:45,839
windshield de-icer but I used water for the test run this seems like a good time

232
00:16:43,980 --> 00:16:50,279
to point out how far we've come in terms of performance and cooling this has a

233
00:16:48,060 --> 00:16:54,360
custom 13th gen Intel processor with a smaller package that allows the same

234
00:16:51,839 --> 00:16:59,820
performance in a smaller chassis and up to a RTX 4070 laptop GPU with time

235
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:04,260
saving machine learning and media acceleration for industry-leading

236
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:08,040
Creative apps the pro 9i is also custom tuned with Lenovo X power to deliver the

237
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:12,120
best possible performance in all applications with high speed ddr5 and

238
00:17:09,780 --> 00:17:15,000
mdme storage efficient Cooling and software that optimizes power

239
00:17:13,380 --> 00:17:19,980
consumption based on the application you're running see I didn't have

240
00:17:17,220 --> 00:17:24,000
so I needed Sub-Zero cooling I love that you bought like the windshield de-icer

241
00:17:21,900 --> 00:17:27,419
and then used it to prop up the cooler and and then like to fill extra space

242
00:17:25,980 --> 00:17:31,320
you didn't have to get as much water it's almost like you could have just

243
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:35,280
poured it in to do the same thing and it wouldn't have frozen over also did she

244
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:38,820
figure out all the stuff or did you like give her a list of parts we went

245
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:42,419
shopping together okay yeah we went shopping for my birthday okay that's

246
00:17:40,380 --> 00:17:48,539
cool is she a sweetheart or not is this just glue that is silicone there we go

247
00:17:45,780 --> 00:17:53,700
oh I was pretty sure it wasn't bad that ain't coming off oh my God I have not

248
00:17:50,820 --> 00:17:59,700
learned about that yet and this was a brand new motherboard this is my Core 2

249
00:17:56,100 --> 00:18:01,260
Duo upgrade even a 6600 baby even if you

250
00:17:59,700 --> 00:18:04,620
like tried to peel that off you probably rip those caps oh yeah oh yeah yeah

251
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:09,200
you're destroying them yeah and it's oh and the CPU is in there too oh my God

252
00:18:07,020 --> 00:18:15,299
this was a mistake believe it or not I actually attended

253
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:17,520
Lan parties with this system as it is

254
00:18:15,299 --> 00:18:21,419
see I wanted trash on it but I'm so into it

255
00:18:18,679 --> 00:18:25,140
I absolutely love this I've got real UV fans now oh yeah was this like you'd

256
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:29,400
unplug all the cables and then you could like card it or did you undo a lot of

257
00:18:28,020 --> 00:18:34,140
this in order to get like you take the the block off I imagine I think I just

258
00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:38,160
got help carrying it just I think I had to carry it as one piece I

259
00:18:36,179 --> 00:18:42,059
don't even think I drained it and you didn't like Dolly it or anything no I

260
00:18:40,679 --> 00:18:47,820
just carried it I didn't have a dolly like what are you talking about death

261
00:18:43,740 --> 00:18:49,919
change again Logitech g15 baby massive

262
00:18:47,820 --> 00:18:54,000
keyboard upgrade that most was so cool because it had it had these batteries so

263
00:18:52,140 --> 00:18:57,960
it was Wireless and it had rechargeable batteries and you can see the base just

264
00:18:56,100 --> 00:19:01,799
to the top right of his mousepad oh yeah you'd flip the Mills over press a button

265
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:05,039
and it would like fire the battery out you'd press a button on that base it

266
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:08,640
would fire that battery out and you slot it back in it's like reloading like

267
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:13,620
magazine changes yeah battery it was actually so for the time it was amazing

268
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:17,660
you were he wore deodorant that's good um why is there any bond sticker because

269
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:22,380
this is Yvonne's bedroom oh right so you're just using her desk

270
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,380
now so we we had the same keyboard in the same Mouse yeah I had a better

271
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,940
monitor than you though that's probably my second biggest ever personal

272
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:33,000
investment because it was like six seven hundred dollars on a monitor which

273
00:19:31,260 --> 00:19:39,059
seemed crazy to me at the time oh is that the really big one it's the 2004

274
00:19:35,220 --> 00:19:41,580
fpw which isn't big more it's a 24 inch

275
00:19:39,059 --> 00:19:46,039
monitor but it was 16 by 10. yeah I was just gonna say just like the Lenovo yogo

276
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:52,460
Pro Yogo that extra vertical space makes

277
00:19:49,799 --> 00:19:57,960
such a big difference for everything 16x9 was a mistake especially on a

278
00:19:55,140 --> 00:20:01,380
laptop yeah we've undone that mistake so happy what was the wait what was the

279
00:19:59,700 --> 00:20:05,580
name of that last file hold on go back why do I keep my computer in my

280
00:20:03,299 --> 00:20:10,380
girlfriend's bedroom this is not my personal rig but this is

281
00:20:08,340 --> 00:20:14,340
the first water cooled PC I ever built for an NCIX customer there's the okay

282
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:19,500
you can see the inverter box that like weird like off light blue they were all

283
00:20:17,220 --> 00:20:23,760
like that I actually delivered this to a client which is embarrassing to me now

284
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:29,240
uh we fast forward a little bit my girlfriend bought me a Silverstone tj07

285
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:32,400
so this is never side panel on

286
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:34,440
uh no this is mid working on stuff

287
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,860
because well the tube goes out of the case that side panel is flush that's my

288
00:20:36,660 --> 00:20:42,960
t-line um when we're done that will wrap up

289
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:45,419
here and hide away that is nail polish

290
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:49,860
ah so that's what you used no it was something else before I don't

291
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,799
know just anything that can fit in the end he just needed the coolant to go

292
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:58,559
down so we could take the block off pretty clever right we have a bunch

293
00:20:55,260 --> 00:21:00,740
because every time I saw them I grabbed

294
00:20:58,559 --> 00:21:06,539
them and took them home so you started the trend

295
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:10,559
it's really just company culture at this point

296
00:21:07,460 --> 00:21:12,179
oh why is actually starting to have some

297
00:21:10,559 --> 00:21:16,260
like Swagger with his building I like this a lot I was never a fan of that

298
00:21:14,340 --> 00:21:20,700
SATA cable wrap you did it a bunch of times yeah I know it was never enough

299
00:21:19,380 --> 00:21:24,780
yeah but other than that this is like actually sick well what else would you

300
00:21:22,620 --> 00:21:29,159
do I guess just zip tie it behind us oh was this after you got it painted too

301
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:32,159
yes or sandblasted yes this is after I got it powder coated by Mountain mods so

302
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:37,140
he had to ship the whole case to some guy like this wasn't local

303
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:39,780
wow oh I'm doing maintenance on the CPU

304
00:21:37,140 --> 00:21:43,919
and the GPU so it's empty no Jake pointed out what'd you do to your rat he

305
00:21:41,460 --> 00:21:48,299
did that on purpose no no that was a deal Thermo chilt was based in the UK

306
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:54,000
couldn't figure out how to package their products and a solid like quarter of one

307
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:58,980
of our shipments was bashed in so I negotiated

308
00:21:55,500 --> 00:22:00,120
a little discount on this radiator that

309
00:21:58,980 --> 00:22:06,659
I checked to make sure was in fact still

310
00:22:02,820 --> 00:22:09,299
working can I just buy this as is he did

311
00:22:06,659 --> 00:22:13,320
it with a lot of things hey just coil stuff around

312
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:18,840
why cut when you can manage well even the light this is pretty dope

313
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:24,000
yeah this is sick like it was it was bad before but we're getting there can we

314
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:26,760
bring back UV man I love it you're

315
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:29,960

supportive of their daughter oh really

322
00:22:58,559 --> 00:23:02,360

00:23:13,380 --> 00:23:20,880
sure what did you take this photo with like what happened took a test bench

326
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,559
home from work uh oh yeah yeah that's

327
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:27,059
what the couch monitor is for that's a test bench I'm probably benchmarking FX

328
00:23:24,900 --> 00:23:30,840
this is that story that I've told so many times about how AMD promised me

329
00:23:28,799 --> 00:23:35,640
this thing was great so I like pulled an all-nighter to get great performance

330
00:23:33,539 --> 00:23:39,600
from it because clearly I was doing something wrong and then in the next

331
00:23:38,039 --> 00:23:43,559
morning I found out it was a piece of when all the other reviews came out

332
00:23:41,100 --> 00:23:48,480
not so were you just benching it because of being a PM or being interested or was

333
00:23:46,559 --> 00:23:51,900
this actually like for an article NCIX had launched Hardware Canucks by this

334
00:23:50,220 --> 00:23:55,799
point which they didn't disclose belonged to them but definitely

335
00:23:53,460 --> 00:23:59,039
definitely belonged to them if they ever disclosed that well it doesn't belong to

336
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:02,400
them anymore so I guess if it has anyone ever brought that up before online uh I

337
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:06,659
don't think they ever publicly acknowledged it that's fine Avon

338
00:24:04,260 --> 00:24:12,720
probably studying yeah oh yeah Yvonne's studying to pay for you know me to just

339
00:24:09,900 --> 00:24:16,260
do nothing but this all day okay 2008. so this must be the night before a

340
00:24:14,460 --> 00:24:20,460
launch of something how's that keyboard oh that's a good question really nice

343
00:24:26,460 --> 00:24:32,520
5 megapixel webcam with physical privacy shutter no it was it was it was Phenom I

344
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:37,200
call it Phenom because it was part of their their spider platform so like

345
00:24:35,460 --> 00:24:40,860
venom venom and that's what they that's what they sold to me everyone else calls

346
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:45,480
it Phenom but that's why I do it AMD's fault our side-by-side gaming setups

347
00:24:43,260 --> 00:24:49,919

can I ask like okay throughout all

397
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:34,200
of these years of photos there's always Tums on your that is the same bottle

398
00:28:31,679 --> 00:28:38,279
what in every single one because I always intended to take calcium

399
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:41,760
supplements oh you never remembered to do it and so I would just always have it

400
00:28:40,500 --> 00:28:47,220
on my desk because I'm like I'm totally gonna start taking these this time you were taking Tums as a calcium supplement

401
00:28:45,299 --> 00:28:53,580
well that's intended to but never did I mean I apparently never did well I just

402
00:28:49,919 --> 00:28:55,140
okay if people go back in in archeology

403
