WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.920
imagine the kind of PC this kid would build pretty awful now imagine he never

00:00:06.720 --> 00:00:13.559
stopped that's right that kid was me is

00:00:10.920 --> 00:00:18.119
that supposed to be a chalking twist today we're going to be roasting the

00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:23.039
cringiest most embarrassing builds from my past and who better to join me than

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:27.420
two of my kindest most gracious paid friends three if you count our sponsor

00:00:25.260 --> 00:00:33.300
Lenovo who's featuring their brand new Creator focused yoga Pro 9 eye known in

00:00:30.779 --> 00:00:39.440
North America as the Lenovo slim Pro 9i with Intel 13th gen processors and

00:00:35.579 --> 00:00:39.440
NVIDIA 40 series laptop graphics

00:00:46.340 --> 00:00:51.719
oh man where do we start our tour at the

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:56.219
beginning I'm gonna have great context for all this stuff that was done when I

00:00:53.820 --> 00:00:58.820
was two years old I can't wait till

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

00:01:04.559 --> 00:01:11.540
pictures and was only able to recover thumbnail sized images how old are you

00:01:08.520 --> 00:01:14.400
here well that's not me yeah

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

00:01:16.740 --> 00:01:25.500
uncle who was ditching his Pentium 166. holy

00:01:21.500 --> 00:01:29.900
z985 sticker is legit is that a receiver

00:01:25.500 --> 00:01:29.900
no no that's a tape deck

00:01:30.360 --> 00:01:36.299
this is the 2002 baby I love the corded

00:01:34.259 --> 00:01:40.619
phone too that was to talk to my girlfriend that you can't use at the

00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:44.820
same time as a computer yeah when did MSN Messenger come out 2005. oh yeah I

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

00:01:48.360 --> 00:01:54.960
chatted with my sweetheart 09. that was Yvonne's handle with all the like cringy

00:01:52.979 --> 00:01:59.159
like x's and brackets and stuff and everything around it yeah this is my

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

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:09.739
most proud Christmas gifts for me I asked for Warcraft 2 and what I got

00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:14.760
was furniture yeah they were super pleased with their

00:02:12.540 --> 00:02:19.620
way of supporting my computer hobby without actually getting me any computer

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

00:02:21.900 --> 00:02:29.580
kind of awful how much uh mousing space Also that we got here 2002 first

00:02:27.420 --> 00:02:34.319
computer I ever built for a client there's your MSN Messenger who's Tyson

00:02:31.980 --> 00:02:37.440
uh my friend in high school wait so you built a computer for your client and

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

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

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:51.599
using it for a little bit before delivery I don't know burn-in period I

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

00:02:53.280 --> 00:03:00.420
oh oh my first gaming PC with a

00:02:57.060 --> 00:03:02.879
dedicated GPU let's go wow that is it

00:03:00.420 --> 00:03:08.459
like translucent plastic yeah it was meant to match that era of iMac which my

00:03:06.300 --> 00:03:12.959
parents thought was super cool and got for me not realizing that my keyboard

00:03:10.620 --> 00:03:16.860
was in fact about 40 percent wider than the Apple keyboard at the time and

00:03:14.700 --> 00:03:19.860
therefore in order to use it this is the technique I developed yeah you figured

00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:25.080
it out right you're actually using an ergo keyboard hey yeah well that really

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

00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:35.040
have got a job oh I had a job I had a job many years wait

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

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

00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:48.840
still Athlon XP so same CPU as my original build but I've upgraded from a

00:03:46.620 --> 00:03:51.659
motherboard with onboard Graphics to an ASUS motherboard that's pretty big I

00:03:50.580 --> 00:03:57.000
feel like you guys aren't looking closely enough oh my God I saw that see

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

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

00:04:01.739 --> 00:04:08.400
beautiful see I yeah this works for me is that just cable management

00:04:06.659 --> 00:04:12.420
electrical tape yeah but there's no window so who cares uh no this can this

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

00:04:14.340 --> 00:04:23.040
the bottom right no back then your audio headers were either standard HD audio or

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

00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:29.340
that was the extras hanging off did you plan on having more hard drives you just

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

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

00:04:36.060 --> 00:04:44.780
great all right I expected you guys to roast me for the cable management oh no

00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:47.460
I just was no sarcasm I see all that fan

00:04:44.780 --> 00:04:52.020
whoa was that something you could buy or you painted that I found some UV

00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:57.660
reactive waterborne paint on an art supply store

00:04:54.259 --> 00:04:59.280
I mean at this is 2004. you went to the

00:04:57.660 --> 00:05:04.080
store no I had to order this online really no you can find this stuff in

00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:10.680
store this was this was Niche you painted the blades too I did however Buy

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:13.740
AI also online this UV reactive IDE and

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:17.060
floppy cable set this UV green sleeving

00:05:13.740 --> 00:05:19.800
and this Arctic Cooling

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

00:05:22.380 --> 00:05:29.639
own slot caption for this you merely adopted the three slot GPU I was born in

00:05:27.780 --> 00:05:33.720
it molded by it I need like some tape to cover up the

00:05:31.380 --> 00:05:39.539
top so you can't see that I mean tape in here

00:05:35.780 --> 00:05:41.580
that's the old P6 connector I apparently

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

00:05:44.100 --> 00:05:49.100
there's just that one IDE cable thing so yeah really good quality UV heat shrink

00:05:48.300 --> 00:05:54.660
here those cables that he bought would have

00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:56.880
come all pre-done oh well these ones yes

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

00:05:58.620 --> 00:06:03.979
been what he did yeah I put some UV accents on the top of the

00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:08.699
heatsink here is that on purpose or you just dropping

00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:14.940
that's actually just Jank like that actually just looks terrible I'm I'm

00:06:10.500 --> 00:06:18.300
like quite Pro like the like dude what

00:06:14.940 --> 00:06:20.639
you can setups but just painting poorly

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

00:06:23.819 --> 00:06:29.400
you left them the heatsink still looks like trash that's what I'm saying the

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

00:06:31.440 --> 00:06:37.800
not that bad yeah okay those sleeves

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

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

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

00:06:48.419 --> 00:06:54.419
designed by somebody that doesn't actually know what the like the thing is

00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:57.180
supposed to look like they just computers they throw things in there

00:06:55.860 --> 00:07:02.460
yeah that looks like a computer that's what Linus made is this where the lambo

00:06:59.280 --> 00:07:04.020
RAM is that really just you left that

00:07:02.460 --> 00:07:07.620
there you just were you actually having cooling problems with your RAM or you

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

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

00:07:14.100 --> 00:07:19.520
pictures of this I used it oh my God

00:07:20.520 --> 00:07:28.280
I must have cleaned the GPU at some point because I think I had problems

00:07:24.539 --> 00:07:28.280
with that makes sense

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

00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:42.840
CPU Cooler was two-tone he did green underneath and orange blades my first

00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:46.680
surround sound speaker setup I like the height one of them is Linus height the

00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:51.060
other one was hung by his dad still learning the alphabet there I see okay

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

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

00:08:00.300 --> 00:08:05.400
Duo big upgrade and a freebie mouse pad

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

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

00:08:12.960 --> 00:08:19.740
like this today if I could why is your blanket on Twitter I don't know

00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:23.520
insulation man what are you even really trying to take a picture of right now

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

00:08:26.340 --> 00:08:32.700
the amount of UV light that I could get from just the the little computer-sized

00:08:30.960 --> 00:08:36.959
ones so that's why your side panel is always off because you had an external

00:08:34.140 --> 00:08:42.959
UV light oh that might be it and external Powers that's a full that's

00:08:40.020 --> 00:08:47.399
a full dick like black light from probably Spencer's Gifts or like San

00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:52.459
Francisco or something that was a chain store here that had Novelties and sex

00:08:49.560 --> 00:09:00.120
toys and stuff whoa this was an exciting upgrade Athlon 64

00:08:55.500 --> 00:09:02.220
baby and one of the dumbest decisions I

00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:06.899
ever made this heatsink from Swift Tech was

00:09:03.839 --> 00:09:09.839
awful oh I'm sure and very expensive

00:09:06.899 --> 00:09:13.920
these were helical coils I have no doubt they spent a ton of money building the

00:09:11.339 --> 00:09:17.820
thing but the performance was dog crap and I bought it completely sight unseen

00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:21.540
no reviews learned a valuable lesson yeah this is my test bench and literally

00:09:19.500 --> 00:09:25.980
my mom's basement what is that spray yeah

00:09:22.640 --> 00:09:28.440
lubricating spray fun fact I still own

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

00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:35.820
lubricate the back door like a month ago

00:09:33.779 --> 00:09:41.040
no but what we're using it for here I have no idea

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

00:09:43.140 --> 00:09:48.480
understand like what why did you take a picture right now though you're like 80

00:09:46.980 --> 00:09:53.760
of the way to your cable management being done and you're like a picture was

00:09:51.899 --> 00:09:57.300
that painters tape like on the power supply

00:09:54.959 --> 00:10:00.779
yes that's funny hey that actually works

00:09:58.860 --> 00:10:04.680
okay though yeah but you can see them all inside what difference does it make

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

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

00:10:11.700 --> 00:10:20.040
spaghett yep nice okay

00:10:16.040 --> 00:10:23.100
done a better job oh man Intel inside no

00:10:20.040 --> 00:10:25.620
AMD AMD

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

00:10:27.060 --> 00:10:33.180
actually pretty good so I doubt it oh yeah

00:10:31.019 --> 00:10:39.060
yeah also I could play you got a desk only the finest games yeah yeah

00:10:35.940 --> 00:10:41.880
big desk upgrade big desk energy he

00:10:39.060 --> 00:10:46.320
finally got the mouse pad upgrade piece of A4 paper he cut it to size though

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

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

00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:58.920
in my parents basement hey is that a

00:10:55.980 --> 00:11:02.760
tire that oh these are those ones this is threaded Rod just like some weird

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

00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:12.240
the thing did you take it from like a wheelbarrow or you bought that at the

00:11:10.260 --> 00:11:17.339
hardware store no no my dad helps me with this he bought this specifically

00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:19.200
this is all new designed like this yes

00:11:17.339 --> 00:11:22.680
by Design I mean it worked it was probably cheaper than buying I grew up

00:11:20.940 --> 00:11:26.700
in shanty town you got to make stuff happen not everything needs to be

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

00:11:29.339 --> 00:11:39.360
clearly had the the funds to get a mouse pad I was buying more lights

00:11:35.060 --> 00:11:41.339
UV paint all right it's 2005 baby oh

00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:44.100
this is an iconic photo it's your village called the idiot is missing

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

00:11:45.959 --> 00:11:52.680
LimeWire this is probably pyrus that looks like some form of I remember the

00:11:50.760 --> 00:11:56.220
icons at the bottom of like LimeWire and FrostWire I'm pretty sure that's

00:11:54.000 --> 00:12:02.100
LimeWire I literally have five hundred dollars speakers and a broken three

00:11:59.820 --> 00:12:07.680
dollar desk yeah you have two monitors now hey yep yeah was that one also a

00:12:04.740 --> 00:12:11.760
hand-me-down no the black one is super expensive you bought that p95f plus did

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

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

00:12:17.220 --> 00:12:23.399
actually like kind of jacked because I'm doing martial arts and lifeguarding

00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:25.440
quick flex but okay yeah no this is the

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

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

00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:39.300
probing the LED touch screen on this thing is 3K resolution so literally four

00:12:37.019 --> 00:12:43.680
times as many pixels as that monitor a hundred percent coverage of the srgv DC

00:12:41.100 --> 00:12:47.040
ip3 and Adobe RGB color space automatic switching and a Delta e of less than one

00:12:45.300 --> 00:12:51.959
out of the box that thing by comparison actual garbage first Rattle can paint

00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:56.339
job I thought it was just like dark lighting

00:12:54.480 --> 00:13:00.380
yeah I feel like this has been like you and Bob spray painted a silver case

00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:06.300
silver I feel like it's pretty similar no no

00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:07.680
my compute no no no I reject no

00:13:06.300 --> 00:13:12.000
heatsinks on your RAM I'm kind of disappointed wait this is this is later

00:13:09.420 --> 00:13:16.740
this is my first water cooling setup I was gonna say thermaltake big water SC

00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:20.100
baby hey there's my UV paint though have you bought like multiple kits at this

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

00:13:24.839 --> 00:13:28.579
Yvonne fun fact

00:13:29.220 --> 00:13:34.560
same did she just like wearing that or did

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

00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:43.980
Yvonne's parents house oh

00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:47.579
man you had class back then moving into your girlfriend's house girlfriend's

00:13:45.540 --> 00:13:52.339
parents house sorry sorry shout out Sophia and Albert

00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:54.360
guys are awesome still got the speakers

00:13:52.339 --> 00:13:58.260
they're actually in surround configuration now not rear right beside

00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:02.339
your head I think the desk is an upgrade though because the the previous one was

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

00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:13.139
of the changes he still doesn't have his speakers behind his monitor Athlon 64 X2

00:14:11.160 --> 00:14:18.959
there it is still the single most expensive computer component I've ever

00:14:14.940 --> 00:14:20.339
bought it was about 700 750 for a CPU

00:14:18.959 --> 00:14:26.760
that's when things started getting like actually kind of sick though what 2005

00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:28.500
2006 baby this is 2005 on the photo then

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

00:14:31.500 --> 00:14:39.600
picture exists well thanks for sharing it with us my first SLI setup yeah these

00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:42.660
are 7 800 GTX did you paint those

00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:44.399
heatsinks too yeah those look like

00:14:42.660 --> 00:14:48.600
official those are from salmon those are just blue heat sinks oh you just put

00:14:46.199 --> 00:14:52.980
them on aftermarket yeah my first custom water cooling setup a few big jumps are

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:15:19.199 --> 00:15:27.420
I destructively clipped off of an Arctic cooling freezer something it was this

00:15:24.300 --> 00:15:28.980
weird l-bracketed fan that they built

00:15:27.420 --> 00:15:34.740
specifically for one of their Tower coolers and I was like you're useful and

00:15:32.220 --> 00:15:39.779
I added all these heat sinks to my vrms and then clipped that fan there sick

00:15:37.199 --> 00:15:43.440
maybe double-sided tape I enjoyed I enjoyed the like aftermarket heatsink

00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:47.880
stuff when that was in Vogue for a little while that was the pump

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

00:15:49.620 --> 00:15:56.880
flash photography oh you upgraded the tape the tape is better no it's not tape

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

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

00:16:05.339 --> 00:16:10.100
it yeah it looks worse than the tape really

00:16:10.560 --> 00:16:16.500
worth level your level your shirts

00:16:13.920 --> 00:16:22.320
look at how stupid I am was The Village Idiot now Evolution went

00:16:18.779 --> 00:16:24.560
wrong oh my God this is a big step

00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:29.519
forward I posted this on Extreme systems so I

00:16:27.839 --> 00:16:33.540
had these little captions to explain what I was doing because it wasn't

00:16:31.260 --> 00:16:37.380
evident from just the picture itself so this was a birthday present yes this was

00:16:35.699 --> 00:16:42.120
a birthday present from Yvonne can you tell she's a keeper yeah I bought

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

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

00:16:48.060 --> 00:16:54.360
custom 13th gen Intel processor with a smaller package that allows the same

00:16:51.839 --> 00:16:59.820
performance in a smaller chassis and up to a RTX 4070 laptop GPU with time

00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:04.260
saving machine learning and media acceleration for industry-leading

00:17:01.680 --> 00:17:08.040
Creative apps the pro 9i is also custom tuned with Lenovo X power to deliver the

00:17:06.600 --> 00:17:12.120
best possible performance in all applications with high speed ddr5 and

00:17:09.780 --> 00:17:15.000
mdme storage efficient Cooling and software that optimizes power

00:17:13.380 --> 00:17:19.980
consumption based on the application you're running see I didn't have

00:17:17.220 --> 00:17:24.000
so I needed Sub-Zero cooling I love that you bought like the windshield de-icer

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

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

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

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

00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:42.419
shopping together okay yeah we went shopping for my birthday okay that's

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

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

00:17:50.820 --> 00:17:59.700
learned about that yet and this was a brand new motherboard this is my Core 2

00:17:56.100 --> 00:18:01.260
Duo upgrade even a 6600 baby even if you

00:17:59.700 --> 00:18:04.620
like tried to peel that off you probably rip those caps oh yeah oh yeah yeah

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

00:18:07.020 --> 00:18:15.299
this was a mistake believe it or not I actually attended

00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:17.520
Lan parties with this system as it is

00:18:15.299 --> 00:18:21.419
see I wanted trash on it but I'm so into it

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

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

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

00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:38.160
got help carrying it just I think I had to carry it as one piece I

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

00:18:40.679 --> 00:18:47.820
just carried it I didn't have a dolly like what are you talking about death

00:18:43.740 --> 00:18:49.919
change again Logitech g15 baby massive

00:18:47.820 --> 00:18:54.000
keyboard upgrade that most was so cool because it had it had these batteries so

00:18:52.140 --> 00:18:57.960
it was Wireless and it had rechargeable batteries and you can see the base just

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

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

00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:08.640
would fire that battery out and you slot it back in it's like reloading like

00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:13.620
magazine changes yeah battery it was actually so for the time it was amazing

00:19:11.280 --> 00:19:17.660
you were he wore deodorant that's good um why is there any bond sticker because

00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:22.380
this is Yvonne's bedroom oh right so you're just using her desk

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

00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:29.940
monitor than you though that's probably my second biggest ever personal

00:19:27.360 --> 00:19:33.000
investment because it was like six seven hundred dollars on a monitor which

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

00:19:35.220 --> 00:19:41.580
fpw which isn't big more it's a 24 inch

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

00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:52.460
Pro Yogo that extra vertical space makes

00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:57.960
such a big difference for everything 16x9 was a mistake especially on a

00:19:55.140 --> 00:20:01.380
laptop yeah we've undone that mistake so happy what was the wait what was the

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

00:20:03.299 --> 00:20:10.380
girlfriend's bedroom this is not my personal rig but this is

00:20:08.340 --> 00:20:14.340
the first water cooled PC I ever built for an NCIX customer there's the okay

00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:19.500
you can see the inverter box that like weird like off light blue they were all

00:20:17.220 --> 00:20:23.760
like that I actually delivered this to a client which is embarrassing to me now

00:20:21.080 --> 00:20:29.240
uh we fast forward a little bit my girlfriend bought me a Silverstone tj07

00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:32.400
so this is never side panel on

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:34.440
uh no this is mid working on stuff

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

00:20:36.660 --> 00:20:42.960
t-line um when we're done that will wrap up

00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:45.419
here and hide away that is nail polish

00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:49.860
ah so that's what you used no it was something else before I don't

00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:52.799
know just anything that can fit in the end he just needed the coolant to go

00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:58.559
down so we could take the block off pretty clever right we have a bunch

00:20:55.260 --> 00:21:00.740
because every time I saw them I grabbed

00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:06.539
them and took them home so you started the trend

00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:10.559
it's really just company culture at this point

00:21:07.460 --> 00:21:12.179
oh why is actually starting to have some

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

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

00:21:19.380 --> 00:21:24.780
yeah but other than that this is like actually sick well what else would you

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

00:21:26.760 --> 00:21:32.159
yes or sandblasted yes this is after I got it powder coated by Mountain mods so

00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:37.140
he had to ship the whole case to some guy like this wasn't local

00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:39.780
wow oh I'm doing maintenance on the CPU

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

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

00:21:46.440 --> 00:21:54.000
couldn't figure out how to package their products and a solid like quarter of one

00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:58.980
of our shipments was bashed in so I negotiated

00:21:55.500 --> 00:22:00.120
a little discount on this radiator that

00:21:58.980 --> 00:22:06.659
I checked to make sure was in fact still

00:22:02.820 --> 00:22:09.299
working can I just buy this as is he did

00:22:06.659 --> 00:22:13.320
it with a lot of things hey just coil stuff around

00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:18.840
why cut when you can manage well even the light this is pretty dope

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

00:22:20.520 --> 00:22:26.760
bring back UV man I love it you're

00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:29.960
missing some some cables no 24 pin isn't it there that wait what is this

00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:41.220
isn't that dual monitors

00:22:38.600 --> 00:22:46.740
oh I didn't even see it the the Casual couch monitor yeah it's

00:22:44.340 --> 00:22:49.860
just sitting on the couch is this isn't in her bedroom anymore you've upgraded

00:22:48.120 --> 00:22:55.260
to the living room oh yeah I'm in the family room wow the parents must really

00:22:52.080 --> 00:22:58.559
liked you no they are just extremely

00:22:55.260 --> 00:23:00.419
supportive of their daughter oh really

00:22:58.559 --> 00:23:02.360
supportive they weren't a big fan of me in the early days I was gonna say have

00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:12.919
you met him man very supportive holy so you like

00:23:08.520 --> 00:23:12.919
trashed their family room oh my God

00:23:13.380 --> 00:23:20.880
sure what did you take this photo with like what happened took a test bench

00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:22.559
home from work uh oh yeah yeah that's

00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:27.059
what the couch monitor is for that's a test bench I'm probably benchmarking FX

00:23:24.900 --> 00:23:30.840
this is that story that I've told so many times about how AMD promised me

00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:35.640
this thing was great so I like pulled an all-nighter to get great performance

00:23:33.539 --> 00:23:39.600
from it because clearly I was doing something wrong and then in the next

00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:43.559
morning I found out it was a piece of when all the other reviews came out

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

00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:51.900
this actually like for an article NCIX had launched Hardware Canucks by this

00:23:50.220 --> 00:23:55.799
point which they didn't disclose belonged to them but definitely

00:23:53.460 --> 00:23:59.039
definitely belonged to them if they ever disclosed that well it doesn't belong to

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

00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:06.659
don't think they ever publicly acknowledged it that's fine Avon

00:24:04.260 --> 00:24:12.720
probably studying yeah oh yeah Yvonne's studying to pay for you know me to just

00:24:09.900 --> 00:24:16.260
do nothing but this all day okay 2008. so this must be the night before a

00:24:14.460 --> 00:24:20.460
launch of something how's that keyboard oh that's a good question really nice

00:24:18.059 --> 00:24:24.480
keyboard quiet one and a half millimeters of travel concave keycaps

00:24:22.500 --> 00:24:28.740
really comfortable nice large track pad and machine learning enhancement on the

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:32.520
5 megapixel webcam with physical privacy shutter no it was it was it was Phenom I

00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:37.200
call it Phenom because it was part of their their spider platform so like

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

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

00:24:43.260 --> 00:24:49.919
like you're renting a whole house or uh this is the house I grew up in I

00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:53.820
borrowed a house from my dad who was traveling abroad and didn't have a

00:24:51.900 --> 00:24:57.059
tenant at the time and Yvonne was doing her practicum in tuwassen so it was

00:24:55.620 --> 00:25:02.340
actually really close so he just let you live there for free so we were just living there for free the desk is so

00:24:59.820 --> 00:25:06.299
much worse than yours um they're both awful yeah they look

00:25:04.260 --> 00:25:11.820
pretty bad this one you see these supports oh I didn't that's rough yeah

00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:17.480

of these years of photos there's always Tums on your that is the same bottle

00:28:31.679 --> 00:28:38.279
what in every single one because I always intended to take calcium

supplements oh you never remembered to do it and so I would just always have it

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

00:28:45.299 --> 00:28:53.580
