out of all the stuff that you have on this table that you've already seen
what do you think he's gonna drop i'm definitely feeling graphics card i feel
like he's just gonna be like look at this it's heavy and then drops it
you can like really hear the weight of it you don't want to like
like you don't want something like that just like
waggle wobbling around in the case yeah in 2020 many of the things that bring us
joy have been canceled ltx ellen degeneres
among us two although arguably that one was not really that big of a deal and
almost rog rig reboot
but no we said we will find a way
to do rog rig reboot even if we have to bring emma here
remotely using one of these stupid remote presence devices and we'll find a
way for her to build a computer damn it sponsored by ASUS rog
and and i'm gonna be her hands and she's gonna tell me what to do and i'm gonna
act like i have no idea how to build a computer and i'm pretty sure she has no
idea how to build a computer so this is gonna be a total show but we're all
gonna have a lot of fun everybody ready yeah yeah
sorry i'm gonna just move you here
it's cool okay with rg rig reboot you showed us your current setup but you
didn't really talk about it what is your current setup so my current
setup is actually a hand-me-down laptop it's kind of like a family laptop that
i've had for like years i mean i remember going into like some like
computer store like maybe six years ago and my dad picking out like probably
like the cheapest option what's Windows 7. with a new computer what's the first
game you're going to be playing angry birds rio i mean yes besides angry birds
rio um gosh i want to play among us because
like i don't even think my computer could can handle that i can't it can't
handle among us i don't think so i can't download steam on that thing but yeah
i'll probably get red dead that game looks like a lot of fun so have you ever
built a computer before uh simple answer no complicated answer
no i have no i have not wonderful i love it i've watched Linus's first person
computer build because i was looking into building my own computer but then i
saw you were doing the rog rig reboot thing so i was like oh just uh like do
that that sounds fun so if you were to build a computer where would you start
so i know this you start at the motherboard start at the motherboard good okay i'm gonna give you four
options here and i would like you to identify the motherboard which
of these four things
going so fast what's the motherboard
the third one the third one all right so emma we're going to start
with the rodri wait no that's not a good board sorry what's that now what's that
now that's not that's not a motherboard oh oh oh okay oh sorry okay so which
which which one was it then which one was it hold on okay what's what's the big one
on the big one on the right now that uh this is the thor 1200 oh that's not it
it's neither of those neither of those okay all right i know there's like a motherboard a CPU and a graphics card
and a bunch of other stuff that you shove into a case and then poop a
computer so i definitely think he's gonna be making fun of me and let's grab
the motherboard does that look like a motherboard to you all right yeah perfect we've gone with
the crosshair 8 dark hero from ASUS rog
it's got a great mix of i o thanks to its x570 chipset so you got that two and
a half gigabit networking sli support
lol rip sli
lots of overclocking features great cooling tons of m.2 expansion and wow
that's a lot of usb 3 ports so do you have a lot of usb 3 peripherals emma i
just heard random numbers yeah it doesn't matter you don't have to plug in
any usb it's it's fine you can just uh
you can use ps2 i have a ps3 can you give her a look at
everything on the table here so emma what would you pick next
so if i remember from the the other video yes ah you're prepared
yeah clever tiny thing which is the CPU the tiny thing please
point me at the tiny thing ryzen ryzen
very nice i like it we're off to a good start here
ladies and gentlemen so you are going to be equipped with a ryzen 7 5800x that's
right my friends emma is not only getting this machine for free she's
getting parts you basically can't even buy
now tell me something why exactly do you need eight processing cores you're gonna
be playing some fortnites i'm gonna
take on editing and directing videos and directing videos
yeah like short skits fascinating okay well you won't be doing any of that
unless you figure out how to get the CPU in the socket so oh i already opened up
the thing okay you're getting ahead of yourself here emma how do we put the
thing in there so you got your CPU what do you do next see you you lifted the
bar i got to pretend i don't know how to build a computer here
so you lift the bar yep i can't get it up it's stuck oh no there it goes
and then you lift the black cover lift the black cover thing
well i can try never mind okay start lift the black
cover always a cover kind of here no no hold on i'm trying to find more
black covers for you emma but maybe it maybe it's not the black hole all i'm
allowed to do is follow your instructions emma i really wish i could help you but i can't i don't like the
rules here i i really don't know
okay i will give you a hint i'll give you a hint there's no black cover you
probably watched a previous rog rig reboot didn't you
okay you're trying to install an AMD CPU
using an Intel method
so now that you know there's no cover what can you tell me about which way it
goes in the socket i know that there's like a dot dot you say on the is there a
dot on the CPU you find a dot for me i
don't see any dot no how bad is her video feed there's definitely a dot
is it on the bottom left it is on the bottom left
all right so where does the dot go all right okay so you match up the dot
with the next triangle okay here we go boys you ready
oh god i'm scared
oh no you got it wait you got a leg flat oh i see yeah okay
wonderful here we go but you gotta flip it upside down upside down the other way
like this way yeah uh-huh and make sure that the dot
no no that's just the way you had it you make sure the pins are on the buttons
are on the bottom i see okay all right
you have installed yourself a CPU emma it might be dead by now but hey it's in
there all right what do we do next oh wait the rail RAM
RAM yeah it's a great dance it goes like this do the RAM do the RAM see put or
put put the rim on put the RAM on the motherboard got it so i just put them on
the motherboard so i think it's the the
side closest to the camera yeah there's the you put them into those slots right
there and you put one side in and then the other till it clicks okay here we go
okay then maybe it's not that is it the other way do you have to put it in the
other way try that no it just seems like it's too wide
it's like it's closed or something you pull oh do you pull the little oh that
seems like a good idea let's try that okay and then i push in one side and
then the other yeah
i heard it that sounded good yeah that did sound
good actually all right all right okay now whoa this is a tough one where's the
next one go do you put RAM next to each other i don't know you're the one who's
building the computer aren't you just put do the same thing that you did with
the last one but the next row next row over
all right emma should i break it to her
emma your RAM is running in single channel mode
joke's on you you think i know what that means
all right i will give you a tech tip we're going to move it over one slot and
that's going to double our memory bandwidth which is a big improvement in
performance on AMD ryzen platforms all right
CPU RAM and motherboard we're like 30 of the way there what's next what's the the
other tiny boxes yep can you see it so those are from
crucial we have an mx 500 two and a half inch
solid state drive and we have a p5 NVMe
m.2 solid state drive in a two terabyte
and one terabyte capacity respectively m.2 that sounds familiar are they both m
they're not one is two and a half inch and one is m.2 i don't know what the
difference is but i know that you put one of them on the motherboard or both of them
so i'm gonna i'm gonna say m.2 m.2 all
right you are m dot correct
yes all right i was rooting for you there it really was
okay where does it go now i'm rooting against you oh wait does that say m.2
that says m.2 brandon you totally led the witness okay
leading the witness okay
all right what should i do now so i know that one one side you put into
the black bar on the right next to the screw
and then do you just screw it on i guess so
um i don't know it seems like we're missing something it doesn't go all the
way down or do you do you screw the the top back the top
back on i mean
technically not um
it would work but it's really not correct uh
i'm gonna help you out here emma yes screwing in the heat spreader would
actually hold the drive in place but we're gonna open up the motherboard box
and get the little um nut and screw that need to go in there
first do you put the fan on now emma
there's no wrong answers just dumb answers well
i've been wrong for most of this so far so we're going to put the fan on
and this is what you had identified as the fan is that correct
is that yeah the cooler yeah cooler that's a good that's a good word for it now we've
got a big old long boy
as i've and have been informed you zoomers call these things specifically
spelled boi that's it that's all okay
so the the long boy
is what you attach to the motherboard correct all right we can try that and
then that goes over the CPU what does
you attach the uh the circular circular part
yep goes over the CPU okay cool i mean i'm assuming you want me to pull this
plastic off oh yeah that would probably be good and then a little tuck oh do you
have to take the screws off first um it's going to take a while brandon
here we go i feel like this was the wrong answer
there we go uh
do you put the mounting bracket on top of it okay
there we go beautiful that does not look great really doesn't
does it so do you put do you put the the cooler
on it and then the mountain brackets
think emma might just surprise all those haters out there who unlike me
were not rooting for her the whole time which i was
all right so we got we got are those are those three they are they're threaded
all right so then we have to find can i see the manually you sure can or just what's the
options that i have well here here's the here's the things you have can you see
through the baggies actually it might be the ones on the
right let's try it
now guys in fairness to emma this is actually
very difficult her video feed if it's anywhere near as bad as mine is not
great i hate to say this but it's very clear
oh i tried all right just got to tighten up these
nuts and then we're good
sorry what's that is it all right
all right partner just keep on rolling baby you
know what time it is it's uh 3 20.
do you even know who do you know who fred durst is
yeah i know that's fine don't worry about it i wouldn't say i was a fan it's
just you know just just know who he is that's all what are
we doing next emma help me out here help me and do this uh i guess i guess we put
it into the case put it into the case
ah and it's white it is white as the driven
snow emma now tell me something
do any of your friends have like sick gaming rigs like have you actually like
tried out playing on a full-fledged gaming machine
at the microsoft store the microsoft store huh
i played minecraft there once wow so this is just gonna be a whole new
experience for you then oh that's fun that's great so what do we
do next take the glass panel off sure let's take
the glass panel off okay and i believe ah as is rog rig reboot tradition
we are actually going to be custom engraving one of the panels for you but
you need to select your preferred artwork or style
oh i don't know i haven't thought of you got to think hard this is a decision
that you're going to have to live with for literally years very much way more
than a big deal yeah i want a hottie you want a hot dog
she requested a hot dog all right alex is going to create something for
you we're going to engrave it on the side panel with our glowforge laser
we're actually going to have the link to that down below if you guys want to check it out and in the meantime let's
go ahead and do what you said we were going to do which is put this in there i
mean look how like dongly schwangly this is oh man
what a mess oh okay so the the ports i
know that goes on the the back side yeah ports on the back side okay
so i guess like that you put it in that way so like that
and then do you do you screw it into the back panel screw it in through the back
panel i mean boy we could sure try
oh it fell it fell completely out of the case
oh that's pretty rough i don't think it's good for motherboards to fall like
that i mean we could try one more time if you want
or not or yeah or i don't know
well seems to me our main problem is that our motherboard keeps falling out
of our case can you think of any way we could solve that problem
do you put the the cooler on first like do you attach it to the top i mean yeah
we could sure try oh whatever you say that doesn't end well
where do you want it so you put it on the top
uh like on the roof
okay wait did the instructions on the the
cooler manual does that show what to do
would you look at that on the very next
page is that the bag of black screws that we
haven't used i bet it is you probably attached the fans to the
longboard for the long fans to the long boy we got this
okay cool there's so many different ways that we
could put them on though it's a lot harder than i expected
which way does it go on though this way or this way that way which way you this
way the other way yeah i think so hey because that looks like the prettier
that looks like the prettier side you know what i mean
wrong method right answer um good job
okay so we've got a slight problem though uh i'm trying to put the radiator where
you told me to put it and i'm getting some drag here
i seem to have some baggage uh well could you just lift the the
motherboard up and just set it on the little
you want me to just put it there yeah can you do that i mean yeah i guess
okay oh there we go so how many screws do i
have to put in this puppy are there four how many um are there or
twelve holes well then 12 screws
fine if they're fine
are there 12 screws yes there are 12 screws
all right then i'm sticking with twelve i'm just going to stand on this box so i
can reach ah line is too short
see this is the problem this is the problem with these rog rig reboot
winners you know they start out all shy and they're like oh Linus please teach
me things and then by the end of it they're like what a loser he's not even tall
you don't look that tall yourself i mean i'm five six five six yeah see
that's not very tall you're not even much taller than me so there you go
well now since you're standing on this yeah yeah yeah the stool helps a lot
that's a really tell us yeah it's actually your monitor so it might be
broken so the joke's on you so that monitor that monitor is one of
the focus products for ASUS for this thing 4k 144 hertz HDR 400 and maybe
functional after Linus stands on it well that was relatively painless other than
that you made me put in like three times as many screws as was necessary
now what um you can't keep kicking this motherboard
problem down the line here all right let's let's okay put the motherboard in
and then do you screw it in oh do you not screw this oh that's an idea
man if only there was some way we could have screwed in the motherboard i don't
know 45 minutes ago yeah
okay how so you want me to put them in from the back right
uh hey brandon help me out if he can't hear you
i'll dang it um i'm guessing this side because he
hasn't moved to the other side so i'm gonna say this side yes it's on this
side now i know why people watch some of
the simpler tech channels what are your favorite tech channels emma
why is shut up tips what are the ones you actually watch
actually you're the only tech channeler
i don't think she even watches this channel what's your favorite video
my favorite video was the one where you went to the store that i micro it was a
micro center and you built like a really expensive computer and you sold it to a girl for
like 20 bucks okay that is that was my favorite that
is an actual video we actually made that there would be no reason for you to know
about unless you actually watch the channel all right fine so there's your
power supply are there any wires in the box wires in
the box or instructions or instructions
this is it she's figured out this instructions hack now she's just going
to cheat her way through life there you have it folks it's time to
play do you need that wire
this is our contestant emma she has shown herself to be a capable
guesser do you need it
uh yeah no no i'm just gonna say yes yes
yes yes this yes answer seems to be working so
yes no no
correct all right um i got distracted i started just kind
of building the computer on my own there so i i put the power supply in the back for
you you're welcome um and i plugged in the rest of the modular cables and then
all we've got left is these three connectors for our
graphics card and
right are there any other components to install then well i guess graphics
graphics card you guess you are getting an rtx
3080 which short of the 30 90 which is
basically unobtainium is as fast as it gets for gaming
graphics cards this thing's got RGB lighting up the wazoo
a gigantic cooling patch ton of heat
pipes three fans it's extremely quiet
and of course it'll run fall guys and i
guarantee you hundreds of frames per second
but can it run angry birds it can run angry birds at
if it doesn't do it at hundreds of frames per second i will personally eat
it i will eat this graphics card if it doesn't run angry birds to your
satisfaction how do we install it now so i think you have to take one of the uh
brackets off on the shoulder let's try that which one and let me see let me see
the graphics card sure
all right so i'll say the the black one the top the top black one that's a great
start and maybe the white maybe the white one underneath it as well do you
just mount it now with the just mount it she says i leaves it entirely to my
imagination all right here we go
i have no id are there instructions
you and your instructions step one power off your computer and
unplug the power cables step two remove the chassis cover and locate the pci
express slot where is the pci express
slot is it isn't it the hole we just made or is it the the one yeah that one
this hole is that it i think that's just a hole i don't think that's a slot all
right then is it the one to your right i mean this one
no it's the the vertical this
rectangle no that's also just a hole yeah yep that's a hole okay is it is it
the two bars on the motherboard bars yes yeah yeah okay pci express slot
got it step four insert the card into the slot until it is firmly in place so
this way then the fence face up or down no no
definitely definitely something like that yeah you're right the first time okay
you know it's like it's so funny because it's not a totally unfair thing to
assume that the fans would go up because it seems kind of right side up
it's just it's fascinating it's fascinating for me it's it's the letters
i think that should have the letters yep the letters are right side up now that's
a good thing how you like that RGB
that's pretty cool that's pretty cool that actually does look great
it's very pretty is there a wait the motherboard lights up too
motherboard lights up you're gonna be surprised at all the things that light
up on this thing it's gonna be pretty lit all right good job emma you built a
computer we did it all by yourself
well let's be honest if it wasn't for the instructions i mean
at least you give credit to your cheats
that's that's better than many gamers can do oh wow you got all kinds of like
fun white stuff check out these headphones
they're white white headphones oh i have a question for you if you could
have any image any graphic on the face of the earth
projected from the bottom of your monitor's butt onto your table what
would it be about that symbol i don't
really remember what the bat symbol looks like now i could look it up i
guess but that feels like it would be cheating
all right there it is so somewhere i think we landed somewhere
in between pretty decent and amazing right is that safe to say
it sort of looks like a mosquito and a bat and aside from this monitor having
basically every gaming feature that matters so you got your g-sync 144 hertz
4k HDR look at that
RGB on the back whoa where you'll never see it
because it'll be against the wall but you'll know it's there man this keyboard
is sick that looks so good
uh we also got this is pretty cool you've got a mouse pad
with a built-in chi charging thing so you can put your
chi charging mouse on there or you can just
game on the bottom of it and you can like put your phone there to charge now
under normal circumstances one of the really fun parts of these videos is for
you to like experience you know elite gaming
performance you know for the first time
on your like brand new machine but instead you're just gonna have to live
vicariously through me i suppose um so it's going to be like watching any
other video uh what game shall we play emma
we've got dumat angry birds sorry angry birds
we're going to play angry birds we might as well play it at 120 hertz i could put
it to 144 actually does this do uh 144
4k without chroma sub sampling i guess i can find out easily enough
well lucky you emma unlike their first generation 4k one 44 hertz display this
one has display stream compression so you can run 144 hertz without weird
fringing on your text no fringing but nice and smooth see how smooth are those
how smooth is that bird look at that smooth angry bird i promised you
hundreds of FPS in angry birds didn't i or you would eat the graphics card
that's that's what i recall um i don't know if i remember the part about eating
a graphics card all right why don't we try an actual game
okay how about fall guys do you like fall guys
is fall guys dead now they like it kind of lost its height
what did it fall guys you gotta be kidding me things happen this fast is
fall guys dead now why it's season two
no it's not dead chase says it's not dead and he's like your age i promised
hundreds of frames per second didn't i in fall guys does that say
what does that say 600 well i don't know how they do rounding
in florida schools but 680 would round up to 700 here in canada so i'm counting
it as 700. there you go get out of my way get out of my way
you got this i qualified i got places to go people to see yes
barely sneaking under the wire this is a great fall guys computer by
the way we're running at 1 300 frames per second at the moment here we go get
out of my way guys get out of my way
i had it i had the victory in my head oh god oh my god so close
you got to be kidding me i'm going to pun okay it's good thing
this is your monitor i don't want to break it oh
one more thing though we do need to show you your side panel
oh perfect it looks great i mean better than i
imagined actually well thanks for playing this was lots of fun now i'm all
agitated so i'm not going to blame the computer
but this might not have been as good a fall guy's computer as i thought because
clearly we all saw what happened there but hey
congratulations on building your first pc winning rog rig reboot massive thank
you to ASUS and emma for being good sports guys check out the links to where
you can find all of the sweet rog gear that we feature today in the video
description and we will see you at the next one that's right rg rig reboot it's
happening for real two more videos are coming
