00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,600
Welcome to Scrapyard Wars, where Luke and I compete to build the best computer on a fixed budget.

2
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:12,000
And this year, it's going to be interesting because we get to play with an enormous $800,

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,760
including a hundred bucks to spend on whatever we want from our sponsor, Jawa.

4
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,640
At the end of the week, our setups will be put through the ultimate gauntlet to find out who

5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:29,360
wins Scrapyard Wars. Yeah! Go! Go! Go! Do I keep all the money?

6
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,720
Here!

7
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,120
This year, the rules are mostly the same except for one major change. Our teammate

8
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,840
can make pickups after the 5 p.m. cutoff. We'll be bringing them in shortly. We still aren't

9
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:57,440
allowed to research or plan off hours, nor are we allowed to use our industry connections or

10
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:02,880
our influencer clout for deals, which has become harder as the channel has grown and

11
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:09,360
my face has become a bit of a meme. That is why our first stop is a little unusual.

12
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:15,840
There's actually one more change this year. You're not building just a computer,

13
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,400
you're doing a full gaming setup for $800. Oh, so like monitor keyboard models?

14
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:26,000
Yes. Oh, I can do that. Desk chair. Desk. Too easy. Unless he defines chair,

15
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,360
I'm just going to show up with a log. I don't need to define anything because there's three

16
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,720
parts to the score. There's going to be Labs testing, there's going to be subjective judging,

17
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:37,040
and then there'll be a benchmark drag race at the end. Oh. So you need to impress the

18
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,600
judges with your setup. Well, that is harder than it is in tip. Yeah. Oh, it kind of gives you a

19
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,760
boxer nose. We're going to put on a few small pieces to aid you a little bit. Yeah, because

20
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,160
that's what I need. Make you look a little bit more tired. Grumpy, haggard. Yeah, and you're a

21
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,520
biker. You're probably getting all that wind hitting you. Clearly, I'm a little ways off from

22
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,280
my close up, but that doesn't mean I can't start working on my plan of attack. We know

23
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,560
the first name is Duke. What do you think for the last name? I think you had kind of mentioned

24
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:06,800
offhand a bit ago, Sons of Anarchy. There was like Teller, Dax, Moro. Moro? Duke Moro.

25
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,120
I like Duke Moro. That's a good one. You know what the end result for the makeup's supposed to be.

26
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:16,240
Have you given any thought to your identity as this finalized person? Not even a little bit.

27
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,560
There might be time to do that. Pick what bike does Duke Moro ride. I like that one.

28
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,880
Luke has a full alias ready to go. What? I'm probably just going to cheap out and just be my grandpa.

29
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:31,840
You need a whole identity. What? My grandpa's cool. I have a whole identity. I'm John.

30
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:38,640
I'm from the Prairies. As is tradition, we start by scoping out the usual second hand

31
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:43,200
marketplaces. Facebook has come up in a big way since the last time we did one of these.

32
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:49,440
Craigslist is like dead now. Man, looking at GPUs over on Facebook right now, I'm kind of wondering

33
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,080
if my $100 on Java would be best spent just getting a decent GPU and then fighting my way

34
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:01,360
through like crappy old Lenovo pre-built that are local. Honestly, so far finding the things on

35
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,160
Java seems the easiest, but I'm trying to make sure that I look everywhere. We'll shop around.

36
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:16,720
A $6,700 XT is like $400 Canadian on Facebook and as low as $240 US on Java. So it's like 320 bucks.

37
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,960
Wow. Oh yeah, aside from pricing, there's a couple talking points. Put the market in the hands

38
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:26,640
of gamers, you can find parts, pre-built systems, new end used, and they've got individually vetted

39
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:30,480
verified sellers. So that's probably what I'm going to want to go with so I can make sure

40
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,000
that we get it shipped up here in time. That's exactly right. Are we considering things like

41
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,080
shipping costs? No, no, no, no. We're getting it like expedited so it'll arrive tomorrow. They're

42
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,680
not actually available in Canada. They're making an exception for us. I kind of wish they were though.

43
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,320
We can get this right now. Meet your teammate. What's up, brother? My name's Duke Merrow.

44
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,880
Duke? So I've got a bit of a bad update for you. Okay. It turns out, never buying your own computer

45
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,920
components and not reviewing computer components for, I think, five years since the last GraphGuard

46
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:07,840
Wars means I have no idea what's going on. The what I've done is nothing. Well, I have some good news.

47
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,560
I have a plan that I think will win us the game. Brother. There's a whole bunch of mom and pop tech

48
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,520
shops or even just small tech shops that do like small to medium businesses. They have recycling

49
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,560
piles. We could probably just call them. So we could as much get like PC cases, power supplies,

50
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,800
things like that. When I was working at a place several years ago, they were recycling eighth

51
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:32,880
gens, CPUs. Whoa, I love this. One thing that I was doing actually was googling around for recycling

52
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,280
places because something that won me a GraphGuard Wars in the past was finding free geek.

53
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:42,560
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Totally. Free geek is closed now. Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Whoa. I like

54
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:50,960
this deal. What the hell is this? Tower only 250 bucks. Core i7-8700 32 gigs RAM. This is obviously

55
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:56,480
a custom build. Comes with the tower cooler. Whoa. Whoa. See sonic 520 watt power supply. Dude,

56
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:01,760
I should just go buy this. I might not even keep all that stuff. I got like four days. I can flip

57
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:06,160
some of that stuff. We're going to turn a paperclip into a house. Let's go. I'm going to be super

58
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,040
formal in my communication. I think that's going to be part of my persona. I don't have a lot of

59
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:17,360
money. What does he want? He wants to play Fortnite. I'm going to spell it wrong. Thank you,

60
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:22,960
John. Okay. Send message and see how it goes. Apparently presentation is some amount of the

61
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,400
judging. I don't know how much. Okay. Like if we end up with kind of an ugly computer,

62
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:35,360
my idea was that we hide it by like desk mounting the computer basically. And I have found a desk

63
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,800
that had like cable management holes in it and all that kind of stuff that was free. It says

64
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,800
pick up available today. So we should offer like now. It's in Langley too. So it's nice and close.

65
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,040
Overdale. This guy's like, yeah, just come by and pick it up. So we will go pick it up today.

66
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:55,840
This is interesting. What the hell is a Ryzen 5 4500? Oh, wait. Do I have a message back already?

67
00:05:55,840 --> 00:06:02,240
I'm not a gamer. You need to look at the specs and draw your own conclusions. Sorry. Can you advise

68
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,480
if this is the best deal you can offer me? All right. Well, he got back to me really fast.

69
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,560
That's a big improvement over the Craigslist days. What do I want my angle to be? I got to

70
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,040
impress the judges. All I had to do was build a fast computer. No problem. Who are the judges?

71
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,360
Can we cater to the judges? Yeah, I'll tell you the judges. It's Nicole, Plouffe and Riley.

72
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,040
Okay. So Plouffe, we need a good monitor and keyboard. Riley is going to want minimalism.

73
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:30,160
I want to make sure that we try to spend nothing on desk chair, things like computer case,

74
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,800
stuff like that. But we should still try to do cool things with it. I should start figuring out

75
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:40,400
what I'm going to expect to pay for like a desk. I mean, it's got to be free, right? Oh, it's free

76
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:46,640
as f***. Things that I'm a little bit concerned about is peripherals and monitor. Labs won't be

77
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,080
testing the monitor. They'll just be testing the computer. But the monitor will be more

78
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:55,200
the subjector. That's part of the experience. Yeah. Whoa. This monitor is 300 Hertz for $175.

79
00:06:55,280 --> 00:06:59,920
Honestly, you might want to even just send it. That's really good. It's a 24 inch 1080p,

80
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:10,560
one millisecond. Dude, I can get leftover paint for like five bucks. Like if I like painted up the

81
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,920
walls and you're my setup and stuff, I think that'd go a long way. There's one system on Java

82
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,880
that's like really sick. It's like legitimately pretty well specced out. My biggest concern was

83
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:26,320
that's American, which would be basically that's our budget. I think that'd be like $800. Yeah. So

84
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,440
you have to get like a free monitor, free mouse, free keyboard, free desk, free chair.

85
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:38,160
What is it? 400 bucks. Man, there's some deals. Of course. See Sonic Focus GM 550. Man,

86
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,560
will not come with storage. Okay. That's what's missing on this buddy for 400. All right. Hi,

87
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:51,440
just sending some messages, sending some messages. Hi Linus. Never better. Oh God. Okay.

88
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:58,000
Hello. It was the reverse of what happened when he shaved his beard off. Honestly,

89
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,200
things are going a little rough. Okay. For team Linus and Sammy. Okay. I found a couple of pretty

90
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:09,520
good deals. Okay. They are not responding to me. Oh, I found one okay deal, buddy needs two hours

91
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:16,480
of notice, but it's for a Core i7-8700, which is okay. Yeah, that's like worse than mine. And I

92
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,280
play games that run on a hamster wheel. So what I really want is a Ryzen 3000 series. There's a

93
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:26,160
couple good deals out there. One of them I can call, but I think it might be actually better if you

94
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:32,720
place the call. So guess what? You're up. Now we need a story. You're my daughter-in-law. So that's

95
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,680
why you're communicating for me. Okay. I'm trying to buy a gaming system for my grandson. I guess

96
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:43,040
he's your son then. I'm 23. He could have a son. Yeah. Biologically speaking. Look, I'm not saying

97
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,200
you're a responsible daughter-in-law. I don't have a lot of money. I'm a pensioner. Okay.

98
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,480
You have reached mailbox number. We're going to text. I guess that makes it a little bit easier.

99
00:08:52,480 --> 00:09:00,160
Okay. Okay. Don't stand by. What? I mean, you're good for now. Are you sure your old man fingers

100
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,800
don't? Should I type it off? If we get the whole computer for free, we could spend the rest of

101
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:10,000
the budget just on PLUS monitor. Yeah. His current monitor that he has. I don't know. But that all

102
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,040
depends on you getting it for free. So why don't you call the tech shops? Yeah. Maybe I should

103
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:18,000
and see if they have a second pile they'll let you dig through. Yeah. This person's mailbox is full.

104
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,600
Bruh. Okay. I guess we're calling somewhere else. So Luke is also doing this right now. You have

105
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:31,680
reached mailbox number 604. Hey there. I was just calling. I just heard back from Buddy with the $400

106
00:09:31,680 --> 00:09:37,920
3600 machine. It's got a 1660 super in it already. We could probably flip that for a few bucks.

107
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:47,120
B450A Pro Max 16 gigs rip jaws 3600. Focus 550 watt power supply. Serenity now. Nice looking case.

108
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:52,720
Okay. Lots of nice looking fans and stuff. We'll not come with storage. Yeah. That's fine. We can

109
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,920
find storage. I worry that this place is going to know my voice though because I've definitely

110
00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:00,640
called. Hi there. Bit of a bit of a long shot but I've just been calling around trying to see if

111
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,600
any of the computer shops have like a recycling pile or something. If you've got anything you were

112
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:10,000
planning on recycling, if I could sift through it, that would be fantastic. Yeah. I could ask one

113
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,720
of the bosses. Would I be able to give you a call back? Yeah. Absolutely. I really appreciate it.

114
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:23,360
What's your name? Luke. Uh, Duke? Duke? Okay. I'll give you a call back. Okay. Thank you. Holy crap.

115
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,000
What's your name? Duke.

116
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,480
By the way, they probably know who you are because I've been there and they've talked about LMG.

117
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,240
So this might be a little bit interesting. I hope they don't agree to do it just because they might

118
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:42,960
have a sense of who you are. If they do, it should be fine because it's free, right? Not really. I

119
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,200
suspect it would be against the spirit of the competition. I see. But I'll try to be pretty

120
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:55,280
convincing. This buddy has no GPU in it. Okay. But does have storage. Okay. Oh god, what's this now?

121
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,840
I can help you out with that if you're not the most tech savvy. Oh, that's so helpful. I am asking

122
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:10,240
my daughter-in-law to have a look at your listing for me. She is quite knowledgeable. No pressure,

123
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:15,600
though. What do you mean no? I put things together. I've made one PC. That's it. Do you know how to

124
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:21,920
graph data visualization, right? Yeah. I could do that on a MacBook.

125
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:28,480
What time would we be looking at? I don't mind this one. Ideally, we should be picking up at

126
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,680
least something today or it's going to be a big waste of Tom's time to make me up.

127
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,760
Can we come in?

128
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,320
No pressure, but can we come in? It takes an hour to get there. 1.5 hours?

129
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,320
We're going to immediately flip this GPU. Okay. Because we're going to pick up something else.

130
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,920
Okay. But we got basically everything else that we need here other than storage. So we

131
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,160
just got to find storage. What GPU do we have? We don't have one. Oh, okay. So you just wanted

132
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:01,840
something else? Where do you want to meet up? Oh god, we're going to need like an outfit for me by

133
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:08,240
then. Well, we're committed now, Sammy. Should we call Black Lab, Glenn? It's the guy who we did

134
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,320
like buying out the mom and pop tech shop. Give it a shot. I'll give it a call. We'll see if Keith

135
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,240
answers. They picked up my recycling last week. Oh, okay.

136
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,960
I'm going to ask him if he can do $25 off, but I feel like I might have

137
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,760
committed already. Am I going to be one of those guys that shows up $50 short and is like,

138
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:32,240
well, do you want it or not? No, I hate those people. I actually hate them. I would be like,

139
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:38,800
I don't know this man. Someone just reached out to me. So I'm not sure. That is f***ing Luke.

140
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:47,120
They just low-balled you. They sound like a jerk. Pleasure doing business with you.

141
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:52,880
That sounds very broomer. I know. Well, it's what I'm going for, man. Yeah, no response from

142
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,000
any of the tech shops. I'm going to feel so dumb if we buy a $30.70 knowing we can get the rest of

143
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:04,800
the parts for like nothing. I agree. So overall update, we're debating on buying a $30.70 on

144
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:10,240
Java. And it is well-priced on Java. It is actually well-priced compared to our local area right

145
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:17,200
now. But the issue we're potentially seeing is if we spend that little of our budget on a $30.70

146
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:22,560
and we get the rest of the computer for very cheap, we could have theoretically bought a $30.80.

147
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:27,360
And so now we're trying to weigh our options of should we just bite the bullet and get the $30.70?

148
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,480
Should we wait for this one of the tech shops to call us because maybe they'll

149
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:37,120
say, yeah, come look through our recycling pile. Well, we could buy the $30.70. Hear me out. Do you

150
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:42,400
think someone here wants to buy a $30.70? We sell it to them for $20 more. That is actually fine.

151
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:48,080
I don't think we could sell it in here in the company. But if we were able to flip it on Facebook

152
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:53,200
market, like a day and a half. Yeah. Because it's showing up from Java. That stuff has happened,

153
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:59,360
by the way. Yeah. It's just very hard. Let's see, $30.70. Okay, what's a $30.70 going for?

154
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:06,880
Two, three hundred. Whoa, whoa, whoa. $260. Is this just like an amazing deal?

155
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:13,840
The only thing we're going to get that might be better would be if we could get a $6,800 XT.

156
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:20,240
Okay. I don't think we're getting that. Maybe a $6,800 XT. What about a $30.80 equivalent AMD card?

157
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,560
That's what I'm looking for right now. Got it. Oh man, I'm a little scared to just take the first

158
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,960
deal I see on Java. But like, I think this is like the best deal. If Luke doesn't get this,

159
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,840
I think he's like boned. The thing is that like, I feel like if it's the official store,

160
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,320
they would have tested it, Questerbark. That's true. Because that's like a big chunk of change,

161
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,240
right? And we can't get it back. Still going with that then? Yeah. I think we're still going to go

162
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:48,320
with it. When a hundred Hertz, 1080p, 22 inch monitor for $50. Or we get that monitor that we saw,

163
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,800
that super overkill monitor. Because if we get a $30.70 or $30.80, it'll be able to drive it.

164
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,280
But then that monitor is a hundred Canadian. It was, yeah. And it's all the Java money.

165
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:02,560
So we would only have 600 bucks left. Which then would be 500 for a $30.80. So we'd have a hundred

166
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:10,640
dollars for the rest of the system and peripherals. There is a $75 one. It's 24 inch 144. That's sick,

167
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:15,200
isn't it? Yeah, 75 bucks. And then we have 25 bucks still on Java. So we spend it on that SSD.

168
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:21,920
What's the most we can get for the max price of 25 bucks? We get a 256 SATA or 256 m.2.

169
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:30,640
Sheesh, brother. Or we spend 28. So we go $3 U.S. to Canadian and we get a 480 SATA.

170
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,800
You want to do that? I think that's, that seems pretty good to me. Okay, we need to find out what

171
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:40,000
the cheapest SSD we can get is. Oh wait, buddy here has tons of them. Okay, no, no. We can,

172
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,640
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So we can, we can get them for 20 bucks Canadian locally.

173
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,640
Now we're trying to make a commitment on the GPU so that we can have a pricing for the rest of the

174
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:54,000
system. But we don't want to actually spend the money. So we're going to ask someone if we can

175
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:58,160
make an agreement to buy the card and say, can we pick it out tomorrow with full intention to

176
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,240
actually do that. But by saying we're going to pick it out tomorrow, we're buying ourselves the time

177
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,800
to figure out if it's even technically possible. So that is 100% the goal. We're not going to try

178
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:13,840
to bail on this person. But we want to lock in the deal. $30, 80 and $800 system is insane.

179
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:22,240
I can pick it up tomorrow. Is there any wiggle room on the price? Smiley face.

180
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,760
I don't know if... Okay, I'm deleting the smiley face. I don't know if Duke Marrow would send a smiley

181
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:33,440
face. Oh, sorry. Yeah, your Duke Marrow. Oh, I never checked my email. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I heard

182
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:38,320
back from this guy. I'm free after six today. Okay. Original Craigslist. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

183
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,920
whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, but it only comes with eight gigs round, but it has a better

184
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:50,560
motherboard. It has a Quadro 600. That's like really old, I think. Quadro 600 is worth $5.

185
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:58,160
Where do you see 4,500 U in the posting? I mean, it says 4,500. That's not a CPU.

186
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:04,640
Wait, what the hell is a Ryzen 5 4,500? Oh, it is a desktop chip. How okay with bending the rules,

187
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:13,040
are you? We're okay with that. What if we, like, bought this and then we went on, like, a selling

188
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:18,960
spree over the next bit? Because I think this deal is crazy. Okay. Like, I think this guy has no idea

189
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:25,360
what this stuff is worth. There's five Noctua fans. The Noctua fans are worth $200. I say we do it.

190
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:30,160
Okay, and then we sell stuff. And then we have to sell stuff to get back under budget. Okay.

191
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:35,440
Luke would do the same thing. I don't know if we actually want to go with this name, but hey,

192
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:46,080
young Mike. What's up? If I come pick up today at six, can you give me $20 off?

193
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:53,680
See, this isn't so much a budget management exercise as a cash flow management exercise,

194
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:59,920
because the Jawa cash hasn't left our wallet. So as long as by the time the Jawa card arrives,

195
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:06,240
and the cash is back in our wallet by then, then we're good. Okay. Right? I didn't hear anything,

196
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:14,640
and I will allow it because it sounds interesting. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Between these two deals,

197
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:20,880
I think we're in really good shape because, like, a Ryzen 3,600 is worth like 90 bucks.

198
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,800
This is all mental math, which is not my specialty. Have you seen the tattoos? Whoa,

199
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,440
we got one by your eye? Damn. Your nose is huge. I can't get over the nose.

200
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,440
The nose is pretty huge. This side is enormous. Yeah, I really don't like that different.

201
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,760
I think if I put a hat on though. Yeah, a hat would help. Here we go. Here we go. We heard back.

202
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,520
Okay. Sure. Sure. Sure. 20 bucks off. We just got 20 bucks off. Let's f***ing go. $20 is the

203
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:49,520
difference between victory and crushing defeat in Scrapyard Wars. $20 is the difference between

204
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:55,040
cute desk and not cute desk. That's true. And it'll get us points at Nicole.

205
00:18:55,040 --> 00:19:00,240
Right? Because she has a cat. Right? Yes. You still got to shave your head? All right, let's do it.

206
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,840
I think you should do it. You want me to shave his head? I think you should shave his head.

207
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Why are we even, why are we doing this at all? Does he need to be convincing as well?

208
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:12,720
Is Linus this person also getting disguised? Is that a no? The problem is Elijah's actually

209
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:18,160
kind of recognizable. We do need to go to our first port of call very soon though. Here's what

210
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,960
I'm thinking. Sammy? Okay. Do you want to make a quick trip to the Valley Village?

211
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,920
We have a separate budget for clothes for our outfit. Okay. You got to help me out here.

212
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:36,480
I'm fine if you try to actually style it. You don't have to go straight bald. What does style it mean? I don't know. Do a lower taper fade. Straight bald is the only style we know.

213
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,840
I already regret it. I don't know if this is the right time to say it. I've never cut anyone's

214
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:51,040
hair in my entire life. If you want to see the full, you know, uncut version of me brutalizing

215
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:56,000
Elijah's hair, check it out on Flow Plane. And if you're not subscribed, there has never been a

216
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,240
better time. We're going to be releasing every part of Scrap Yard Wars a little bit early on the

217
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:05,360
platform. And that's on top of all the incredible content we have cooking at LMG.gg slash Flow Plane.

218
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:08,960
But wait, there's more. If you're itching for even more Scrap Yard Wars goodness,

219
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:14,560
Jawa has an entire giveaway campaign running right now. They gave us a sneak peek and I gotta say,

220
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,240
you're going to want to check it out for yourself. That's at the link below. Now back to the video.

221
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,320
Sorry, I'm a little focused right now, but yeah, check it out. I appreciate him being focused.

222
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,440
Oh my God, that's a lot of hair. I'm giving young Mic a buzz.

223
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:31,600
What does that say? I don't want it to be like white people can't read this or something.

224
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:39,520
We're here at Valley Village. Line is giving $50 in cash. I was tasked to specifically get him a

225
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,880
hat. We'll see what embarrassing things I can put him in. There's a name BJ,

226
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,040
but he wears socks with sandals at the office, so I don't know how much worse it can get.

227
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:54,000
$13.99. I'll go with this. I'm an adult, but not like a real adult. I think this one is more

228
00:20:54,000 --> 00:21:00,960
fitting of a boomer man with a daughter-at-law who's 23 years old. How much is this one? $7.99.

229
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,360
It'd be really funny if we had a fedora. His head's kind of small, isn't it? Maybe we do have

230
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:11,840
to go with a cap then. We'll go with this one. It's very beige and sad. Pants are hard because

231
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,560
the thing is like he's so short, so I think getting shorts is like the safer option here.

232
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:22,880
Kaki might work. Like he goes boating and fishing every once in a while. He sold his house for

233
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:29,600
$3 million, even though he bought it for $150,000. It matches. Okay, we're good.

234
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:41,920
You look like that could just be your haircut. Yes! I did it. I mean, same with you.

235
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:47,520
I just look like I got, you mentioned it. I think you said it well. I just look older

236
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,760
and like I had some bad decisions. What do you mean, great decisions?

237
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,880
Now look at your young man. Oh my god. He looks way different than I do. You don't look that

238
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:02,000
different. You look older. We're hoping a hat is going to be a big part of the sale. I haven't,

239
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,720
I have not seen myself yet. So you start, you look older as well. Oh my god. You just look a lot older.

240
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,720
I feel like you've maybe got a bit of advantage here because people will be like nice to the old

241
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,320
grandpa trying to buy a computer for probably what I'm assuming you're going to say is you're like

242
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,640
young. Gosh, I never thought of that. Oh, he just gave him advice. No, trust me, he was going to do

243
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:27,040
it anyways. I'm busy for my grandson. Yes. Have you seen the neck? Not bad actually. I like that.

244
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,800
Yeah, it's good. You should get neck tattoos. No. You know, you can have hats from here, right?

245
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:37,200
Oh. A pirate hook. What? Elijah, whose team are you on? You could also just wear a freaking helmet.

246
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,440
You know what? That sells the look a lot. That I'm going to leave and get in my car.

247
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:49,040
No, you want to go with like the Canadian flag. Canada. The Canadian flag is really good. This

248
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:54,240
hat is definitely too small for me. It was a child sized hat. You know what?

249
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,360
Your laugh is so distinctive though. I gotta not laugh. Found any good deals?

250
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:06,160
Yeah, actually. I didn't. Nice. I got no good deals. Nice. All right. See you later. See you.

251
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:15,040
Hi there, honey. Give me a kiss. Wow, that's actually like very realistic.

252
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:22,240
Not bad, huh? No, it's pretty bad. How's it going? I mean, how's it going, young whippersnappers?

253
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:27,920
My goodness, you young people. It's inspiring seeing y'all working so hard in here. The visual

254
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,560
change is actually people won't recognize you, I think. I've seen the other team and they look

255
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:38,000
very much like the other team. Look at that, calling speechless.

256
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,800
Well, you have a hat, but I bought you a dad hat, which also might work. We got to go

257
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,160
basically like immediately. So I'm just going to throw this on. This is a shirt. It still had

258
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,000
the tag on it. It doesn't really matter what it says because I grabbed you a sweater.

259
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,680
I grabbed you a sweater. Okay, maybe we'll throw the sweater on. And then I grabbed you like khaki

260
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,960
shorts because I didn't want to buy long pants and have them be too long because... Okay. You know,

261
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:10,400
so here you go. I made sure that they didn't have weird stains or holes on them. Okay, thanks.

262
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:15,520
We are headed to Baloo Village or Value Village to try to get the rest of my costume,

263
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:21,520
like the clothing portions of my costume. Elijah is off to go pick up the desk and potentially

264
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,480
other things from some warehouse. I'm hoping he can come out with a desk and a chair.

265
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:31,120
Now my eyes ain't what they used to be, but I think we're going to turn right up there.

266
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:37,040
Is that right? All right, so what's this accent? Hold on. Hold on. Let me try again.

267
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,360
You should have gotten coaching from Gary.

268
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:45,440
I don't think any of these beat the Canada hat. Am I close enough to the steering wheel?

269
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,600
Oh, am I in the lane right now?

270
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,720
Yeah. Does it actually work? Yes. We just get this and then I can check what shirt I have in the car and just go with that.

271
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:04,000
Well, this is it. First deal. Am I going to pass? I hope so. If you just like look down,

272
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,200
maybe. Hopefully he's taller than you, so... That's Rich coming from you.

273
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,720
Am I going to get away with this? At the voice. You have to change the voice. Sorry.

274
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:25,520
Um, so we're, yeah, we're here to pick up the PC.

275
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:28,720
Oh, thank you very much.

276
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,600
Okay. Thank you. Great. Okay. Yeah, no problem. Should be good to go. Thank you very much.

277
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,160
We can just wait outside if that works for you. I'll just wait here.

278
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:52,560
Hello. Bye. No problem. Take your time. You seem pretty good with those machines.

279
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,880
How do you find this? That's a cool screwdriver.

280
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,800
Oh, where'd you get it?

281
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,680
Hi, Mango. Your name is Mango, right? I'm sorry. He's a door-to-door salesman?

282
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:31,120
Do you have the cash? Thank you. So one, two, three, four hundred. Thank you very much.

283
00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:33,680
One question for you. When did you figure out who we were?

284
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,240
I saw your car in the background, unfortunately, and it's a very distinct wrap.

285
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,440
But the deal was not affected by real, okay.

286
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,800
Okay. Tell me, would you be able to tell? I think the eyes are kind of a dead giveaway.

287
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:55,040
That's my makeup artist right there. We hired a professional from the industry to come in and

288
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,800
that's the shtick this season. It's a nice screwdriver you got there.

289
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:04,160
Yeah, it's been pretty good. I haven't lost anything. Oh, thankfully. That's okay. There's bits available from, from where?

290
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,760
From LTG, LTGstore.com. That's right. Better believe it.

291
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,200
You know what's funny? We were like, we saw the screwdriver. He brought it out in the box. I was

292
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,680
like, hmm, yeah, it has a screwdriver. I don't know what that looks cool. And then he was like,

293
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,680
yeah, it kind of looks like you. I was like, we got busted. You know what? As long as it doesn't

294
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,800
affect the deal, then it's legal. Yo, that's pretty good. Do you want to know the best part?

295
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,960
They were literally across the street from the Labs building. What? I literally got in the truck

296
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:35,280
and just went. And they're like, oh, you're from Linus, right? I'm like, yep, it's free though,

297
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,560
because we already agreed to free beforehand. The deal was already made. The deal was made.

298
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,080
I don't want us to be cheating, but yeah, there's a little bit of suss stuff.

299
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,600
There's soundproofing on the underneath of it. And there's a bunch of like white splatters.

300
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:54,160
We can clean it. Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No black lights. One of the guys agreed to $500 for a 3080 that leaves us with $194.

301
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:58,560
There is a decent amount of systems available at around that price,

302
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:04,320
usually i5s, i7s around like seventh, eighth gen. Power supply is going to be our issue.

303
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,160
Some of these brands I've never heard of. So that does sketch me a little bit. If they're

304
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:14,960
like seven years old, throwing a 3080 on it might be a little oof because of the big spikes, right?

305
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:19,840
It does. But if we have three of them, it's redundancy. Each piece of power connector

306
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:25,600
is a different power supply. Would that be three power supplies? And then one for the motherboard,

307
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:32,560
one for the drive. So we end up buying like five power supplies. We go get a power bar and it's

308
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,680
just part of the build. You have to have this power bar. He's going to look at the computer

309
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,200
at the end. He's going to be like, why are there five power cables coming off of this?

310
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:49,040
I just don't, I don't know if it works. Everyone is saying don't do it in forums,

311
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:55,040
but nobody's saying you can't. The one we're getting recommends a 750 watt. Yeah, but for a

312
00:28:55,040 --> 00:29:01,280
system with one in it, like how much power draw is just a 3080 taking? Uh, 321. According to Zotac

313
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:06,960
site. So we could get away with like a 400 watt. So if we can't, no way. Why? No, no, I'm just saying

314
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:12,800
just a 400, just for the GPU. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is worth. We are fairly committed

315
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,360
to multiple power supply. We also need to be ready to kill our babies and move on from this idea.

316
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:24,320
Tom, am I allowed to drink? It's hard though. All right,

317
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,080
should we have a look at what we scored? Okay. Yeah, because I never got a close look at it,

318
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:34,080
because I was pretending to not know what's going on. Okay. We're just going to pull over right here.

319
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:39,360
So we have a full system basically without storage, right? Six core processor, 16 gigs RAM.

320
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,480
This GPU is going to go because we bought that one on job already. Yeah. So what that means is

321
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:49,360
Sammy, we need to start creating listings for any of this stuff that we are not going to keep.

322
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:55,280
Okay. Like now, because we got to sell this stuff. I didn't tell you this, but I'm $80 over budget

323
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:05,120
right now. Okay. The good news is the total stuff that we're buying for $780. Right. Is about $1,150

324
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:10,240
worth of stuff. Okay. However, we're probably going to have to sell it soon. So we have to

325
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,440
cut ourselves. And so we have to sell it for less than a 1,100 bucks.

326
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:22,320
Yeah. How do you want to do division of labor here? You take it out and I can make the listing

327
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:28,080
look pretty. Okay. You might have to customulate that a little. So do you want to grab pictures then?

328
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:32,720
Yep. The RAM we're keeping, I don't think we can afford this cooler. The other system has a stock

329
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:38,400
cooler. So we're going to use that instead. Do you, do you so shmeed? Are you, you, you got this?

330
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:43,840
She's got this. I just want to get these listings up as soon as possible because coming in under

331
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:50,400
budget at all is reliant on us selling at least some of it. Oh God. This is definitely dirtier

332
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,120
than I initially realized. No judgment though. No judgment. Okay. Are you ready to take the next

333
00:30:55,120 --> 00:31:01,600
picture? Yeah. Okay. Do you want to grab this? Oh my God. A snake. Kidding. Kidding. Okay. So this

334
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,960
GPU is going to go. Let's get the back panel off here. You have man hands. Can you hold this?

335
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,920
Oh, you know what we should do though? We should clean the goop off the bottom. Make it look shinier.

336
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,360
Oh no, don't touch that. It'll get all over your hands forever. Should we post it right away or

337
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,800
can we wait until I clean it up and make it look nice? No, no. We're going to clean it up right

338
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:26,240
now. We got this. Okay. Don't even trip. Okay. Hi. Sorry. Yep. Technically legal what we're doing.

339
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,680
A little weird but legal. Weird. Yes. There's also dust on the outside. I'm working on it.

340
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:38,160
Any luck? Is it working? No, you're breathing it all in. Next time you drink water, it'll

341
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,480
taste like dirt. So let's put that on the dirty side. Okay. She kind of cleans up pretty decent

342
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,800
here. Yep. All right. I guess I'll probably write the posts or you know what? I can help you. I can

343
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:53,040
transcribe it. Wait, do you get carsick? No. Nice. So I can dictate when we're in the car and you

344
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:59,360
can post. Okay. We got this. Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. We ended up with a hard drive that I wasn't

345
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:04,160
expecting. Oh, I told them we'd give it back to them if we found any storage. Oh, for crying out

346
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:11,360
loud. It's the biggest one. Bloody hell, Daniel. That was his name, right? Yep. This power supply,

347
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:17,520
we're keeping. So there's no point extracting all of this yet. But the case is going to go. I think

348
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:23,920
I have enough photos. I think this... Yeah, but then if we try to get a better price,

349
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:28,960
they'll be like, you don't need that money. Yeah. That and if Luke sees it, he'll know it's us. Yeah.

350
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,120
We can bait Luke and then ghost him. That's the best. It's not actually about saving money. First,

351
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:38,080
I'm going to clean this CPU. This CPU is going to go. We've got another one that's almost exactly

352
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:45,280
the same. It actually boosts a little lower, but it's a weirdo 4500 that most people don't seem to

353
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:50,480
have heard of. So they're going for a lot less. So I'd rather take the small performance hit

354
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:55,040
and get the most money back possible. This CPU is one of the most liquid things we have. It should

355
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:59,680
be really easy to move. Okay. Do you feel ridiculous yet? Yes. Good. That means you're doing it right.

356
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:05,520
Hold on. We might want to do this, but this would be the sketchiest possible. They have

357
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:12,400
LTT edition Noctua fans. It would be very hard for them to not recognize us. Duke and was it the

358
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:19,920
young Mike or whatever? What is it? What is it? AMD Ryzen 5 4500. Oh, it's only a 430 watt power

359
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:26,960
supply. Do you think if we say, Hey, no hard drive, no quadro, no power supply, maybe in a case, no case.

360
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:34,640
I mean, you could go for it. Just be like 125 bucks posted 18 days ago. That's a long time ago.

361
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:41,280
Why isn't it selling? That's one stick of memory. Maybe that's why people aren't buying it. But like

362
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,280
maybe the guy's willing to take the RAM out too. It's like, Hey brother, we really just need the

363
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:50,720
motherboard and CPU. Everything else can go away. Honestly, we don't need the GPU.

364
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:59,120
We're back. We forgot your hard drive. Yeah, it was in the hard drive. It's led. Do you

365
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:05,040
don't happen to have the mounting hardware for that CPU cooler for like other sockets? Oh, I do.

366
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,440
And since I'm at it, the motherboard box as well. Do you have the motherboard accessories?

367
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:15,280
All right, success. Awesome. See you later. Have a good one. Man, that worked out great.

368
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:20,000
Oh, look at that. We've got thermal compound and everything. We appear to have

369
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,360
the full complement of mounting hardware for our cooler. Let's take a photo of our combo. Okay.

370
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:35,840
Okay, we still got to get the case. We're just going to do a quick wipe down. Don't worry, we got this. It'll be worth it when we see Luke's crying face at the end. He'll cry real

371
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,720
tears. Interesting take on a friendship. Look, if you can't delay in the tears of your friends,

372
00:34:40,720 --> 00:34:44,960
then, you know, really, what is there in life? A lot of other things like food. But imagine if

373
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:50,480
you could season your food with Luke's tears. This is the best place to do this. There is no better

374
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:56,320
method. Also, the fact that Linus had his LTT keychain out. Oh, yeah, that did not help. Do we

375
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:04,560
have everything we need? Oh, son of a gun. Daniel! I feel bad. But I really need the modular cables

376
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,800
from this power supply. Hello, we're sorry. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Sorry to be a

377
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:14,800
pain in the butt. I promise not to knock on your door again. I'll ring the bell. Okay. It's older,

378
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:20,960
but it has more cores and more threads. It's a Ryzen 7 1700. So it's first gen Ryzen. That's pretty

379
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:26,320
good. But it comes with the motherboard. 16 gigs of RAM. That's pretty good. 750 watt power supply.

380
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:34,000
That's amazing. No GPU nor storage. That's fine. 170. That's amazing. It's a it's 3.7 gigahertz turbo

381
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,560
at 8 cores, 16 threads. Do you think they're going to have 8 cores? They'll probably beat us on CPU.

382
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,160
I don't feel like they're going to they might. I don't feel like they're going to get a 3080.

383
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:46,960
This was listed four days ago. And he says he's unable to test it, unfortunately. But like 170,

384
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,600
and that gives us the rest of the system because it's 16 gigs of RGB RAM, bro. It's good. I don't

385
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:56,560
think it's necessarily the best thing we could possibly find. Yeah. This other system that I found

386
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,680
where we'd have to like hopefully get them to take some things out of it like the Quattro and

387
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,640
stuff, which is way less likely. Yeah. Would be better, but it's less likely. This one sounds

388
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:09,280
pretty realistic. Like even if he didn't take a deal with us. Yeah. It works because it's the whole

389
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,640
system. It's still in our budget, too. Right. So we should start moving on that. This guy's in

390
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,320
Coquitlam. Do you want me to low ball him or do you want me to say, Hey, before I low ball,

391
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:21,920
I always open with, is this available? I can pick it up. Either tomorrow. Yeah. Basically be like,

392
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:26,720
I'm committed. I can come to you and get it. I'm not I'm not one of those people asking for delivery.

393
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:32,400
And I have cash I can give you now. Our success hinges on selling some of the components that

394
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,880
we've bought because we've got a lot of duplicates in our first two deals. So Sammy is working on

395
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:42,640
getting all of our posts up on Facebook marketplace right now. We're going to land back at the office

396
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,800
and she's going to have about half an hour more overlapping with me where we can kind of plan

397
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,440
out the rest of her night. And then she gets another three hours. So she's going to go pick up

398
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,320
our next deal pretty much right away when we get back. And then dude, I have no idea beyond

399
00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:00,480
that. So I mean, we're going to have to figure that out. Yeah. Oh, you can monitor if people want

400
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:07,760
to buy our stuff. The guy on the 13080 wants to pick it up after 6pm tomorrow, which doesn't work.

401
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:12,640
We were supposed to deliver the systems to Labs at 6pm. Could we get it after 6pm today? That is

402
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:17,920
then for sure locking us in to this. And we're like, we're in deep brother. That means tomorrow is

403
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:25,120
going to. Yeah, but we would have some time to find another system. Sure. Okay. Can I pick it up today?

404
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:32,880
Okay. Title. Corsair Carbide 275R. Computer case. I would go gaming case. Or yeah. Oh,

405
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:38,160
yeah. PC or computers. Because people search, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So gaming PC

406
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:45,760
computer case. Yep. Let's go full SEO. Let's go. The dude wants you to pick up the 3080 at 615pm.

407
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:52,400
Today. Yeah, that's fine. I can do it. Are we committing to it? Are we committing to a 3080?

408
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:58,560
Oh, man. I think this decision is going to make or break if we win Scrap Your Wars right now. Yeah.

409
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:06,480
Hi, I have other people offering full price. Can you do 200 an hour ago? Oh, my second deal

410
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:12,720
backed off on the $20 discount. I suspect the other person offering full price is Luke. It's a

411
00:38:12,720 --> 00:38:17,600
really, really good deal. I'm a little surprised he found it though. But at this point, I'd rather

412
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:23,120
pay the extra $20 knowing that I'll just have to sell a little bit more and know that he's not

413
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,920
getting that deal. It's a really good deal. Okay. We got to focus in pretty hard on finding a system

414
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,520
because right now we actually have no leads that have responded. This guy is selling a

415
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:38,160
Ryzen 5 3600 for $65, but just the CPU. So it's like we need to find... You can find the rest of

416
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,920
the platform. Let's go. I found a motherboard for $120, which would put us at $185. So we'd need

417
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:49,600
$10 for RAM and power supply. Like maybe if I talk them down, we'll get lucky. But the guy who

418
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:54,720
listed the CPU listed it four minutes ago. Message them to talk them down. It's worth it. We don't

419
00:38:54,720 --> 00:39:02,080
have anything right now. We got to chase everything we possibly can. We got a hit on our listing.

420
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:09,040
Which one? Which one? On the CPU. Already? They're friends with 18 people, including your wife

421
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:18,000
on Facebook. Wait. It's Luke. It's Luke. What a piece of s***. Nice try, Luke. Yeah, got him.

422
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:24,800
Okay. I messaged the CPU guy and I said, Hey, I have cash and can pick up tomorrow. He just

423
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:29,120
responded with nice try, Luke. Wait, but now he knows it's us. Oh yeah, maybe we shouldn't have

424
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:35,280
said that. His name is John. Who is this guy? Wait, John. Isn't that Linus' name?

425
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:41,040
He saw it. Unlucky. We should have wasted his time. Oh, that sucks. I thought we had a real bite.

426
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:45,360
I wonder if he doesn't even have it yet and he's like pre-listing it.

427
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:53,600
Hi, John. Buy our name. Would you take 40 cash for this, for the CPU? 40 bucks. I can reply with

428
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:59,360
55. What did we list it for? 65. Do you want to check what the other listings for the 3600 are

429
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,360
on Facebook Marketplace? Okay. Because I think we're already the lowest. Other people are listing

430
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:09,920
it for 60. Let's offer him 50. We can do 50. Yeah. Well, don't say we. Oh.

431
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:23,840
Check Facebook Messenger. Check Facebook Messenger. Which one? Which one? Which one? Check Facebook Messenger. Holy s***, dude. We're back in it, brother. Let's f***ing go.

432
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:31,440
Okay. So that was the guy who had the Ryzen 7 1700 and a 750 watt power supply

433
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:38,400
and 16 gigs of RAM. For 170 bucks. For 170 bucks. Meaning we will have 25 bucks as a wiggle room

434
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:44,480
to do like... One mouse. Dude, a 1700 is so good. I think it's good. It's a little old. Got another

435
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,560
bite on the Corsair case. I thought the case was going to be hard to sell. You must have taken

436
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:54,640
great photos, Sammy. Yes. Maybe the Duke should have chosen to be a king. Then he would have a crown.

437
00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,640
Are you going to be fielding messages all night selling this stuff? Because like...

438
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:05,040
I can't believe how active these posts are. It can't be real. I can reply to multiple people

439
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:11,600
at the same time. Got that zoomer energy. Love it. Do you just sell CPU, GPU and case? Or do you

440
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:17,520
have motherboard too? Yeah, I got a motherboard. We have a motherboard too. That's weak. Well, I'm sorry.

441
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,400
I can more or less guarantee you they'll have a better processor. Are they going to have a better

442
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:26,800
GPU? I mean, they do have a better processor right now. They have 3600. And they're selling it.

443
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,480
Them selling a processor has made me pretty concerned. All right. Well, hold on. So what

444
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:35,360
all is he interested in? Can we add it up? Because it occurred to me with how we're kind of pricing

445
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:41,200
things according to how it is on Facebook and then like discounting a bit. I don't actually know

446
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:45,760
for sure that we're making money. Like I haven't checked, you know? This listing is being reviewed.

447
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:53,360
Can someone like report it? Did Luke report it? That would be quite the s*** move. I'm worried

448
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:58,320
they're going to make the benchmarks like super lame, like really heavy like storage and CPU based,

449
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:02,720
which like no one will ever do or use or care about. You guys in the comments can show how

450
00:42:02,720 --> 00:42:08,640
upset you are. You would want a 3080, right? Right? Right? Wait, we may not have actually, uh-oh,

451
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:14,800
this may not be smart. Maybe that's why so many people are messaging us, though. Maybe our pricing

452
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:20,480
is a little bit too low. A little stressed. This may have just been an exercise in

453
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:25,600
doing the math. Swapping cash back for cash. Okay. We'll be fine, though. We'll be fine.

454
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:30,960
Let's get the $1,700. That power supply alone is for our whole system. Let's just send it. You want

455
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:37,680
to pick that up tonight, if possible. Yeah. So like 615 is the GPU. Where was the GPU? Did the guy

456
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,680
get back to you? I don't know. Oh, he hasn't responded after you sent that 20 minutes ago.

457
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:47,200
Do you think he's faking selling stuff? He just read it right now. I watched him. Should I just

458
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:52,400
ask him if he wants me to pick it up now? Say, I got off work early. He's in Richmond. Okay, so I

459
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:57,120
need to do that. Yeah, I got off work early. I can go pick it up now. I'm doing a lot of driving.

460
00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:01,200
I'm driving all the way to Richmond to pick up a 3080. I'm then driving all the way to

461
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:06,640
Whitlam to pick up that Ryzen 7 system. I need to go ask accounting to break this into 20s,

462
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,880
because I don't really want to show up and be like, do you have 30? Yo, brother, I got Hondos.

463
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:19,680
Yeah. Day two, starting. I got the GPU yesterday, and I got the full tower. The guy did recognize me,

464
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:24,560
which was fun. The haircut didn't work. You were still okay with 170, though. That's what you

465
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:31,440
agreed on. So I'm not using my influence to get a deal. Dude, I can't believe it. I never thought

466
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:36,400
this day would come. And we bought it for literally what he listed it at. Yeah. Because we suck at

467
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,320
bargaining. We haven't tested it yet. We're going to test the GPU in the computer,

468
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:46,880
make sure it works. We have $25 left. We still need to get keyboard, mouse, mousepad, and chair.

469
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:54,080
We really need to verify the GPU works. Yeah. How'd it go? The seller from Craigslist,

470
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,360
they haven't responded. So I tried texting them again. Hopefully they'll reply. They're not

471
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:04,800
replying to me. Anyway, text. So I went and I sat in his lobby and kept emailing him, hi, I'm here,

472
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:09,280
and then eventually I picked it up. We have it right here. I didn't get to like plug it in because

473
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:14,640
we were in the lobby. Yeah. Otherwise, I sat there and I hit refresh until 9 p.m. all night to see

474
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:19,840
if we got more messages. We didn't really get many. So I'm a little worried about selling right now.

475
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:24,560
We need to buy more stuff before we can even sell anything, though. We don't even have storage.

476
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:29,200
Oh, so we're going to pick up storage at around 1120. Okay. And we're going to pick up a keyboard

477
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:35,120
at 11. We still need a mouse and monitor and a desk and a chair. A desk? Desks are free.

478
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:39,760
Okay. We just have to find one where the person is available. So here's our 3080. It's quite dusty,

479
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:44,000
but the guy told me he like just pulled it out of his computer to go do the sale. So I'm hoping

480
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:51,920
that's accurate. Oh crap, is it long enough? Okay. It's a snug fit, but it does fit in the

481
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,520
computer case. That I'm not worried about. We can always make things fit. The power supply that it

482
00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:00,560
comes with, I opened it up. It's 750 bronze from Thermaltake. We're pushing the limits here on

483
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:06,640
like if this GPU is going to be fine. Didn't even realize we bought such new hardware. Still has the

484
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:12,320
plastic peel on. Look at that. Brand new case, basically. And he would be disappointed I peeled

485
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:23,520
it, but you know what? That's fine. All right. Let's power it on. Okay. Switch was off. Let's power it on.

486
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,960
It kicked off a lot of dust.

487
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:37,680
Do you hear that? I do. That fan does not sound healthy. I think it's this front one. Hey,

488
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:43,280
there you go. There it is. Ryzen 7 1700, 8 core processor. Got our 16 gigs of RAM. So our memory,

489
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:49,760
2133. Not the fastest. Definitely not the fastest. That's pretty slow. But you know what? We have a 38.

490
00:45:50,240 --> 00:45:57,120
I found us a desk. It's a solid wood desk. Oh, that guy lies. That's not solid wood. Oh, I saw

491
00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:02,080
that one. Those are MDF desks. You know what? At this point, I think we might just have to go with

492
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:08,560
it though. Can you throw in a chair? Yes, but they are old. That is okay. I mean, we might as well.

493
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:13,600
If we don't want it, we can find another one. So I need to go get that keyboard like now. I should

494
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:19,200
be done very shortly. It's 40 minutes away. That's gone up since I looked it up. I can message them.

495
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:24,240
Okay. I don't think we'll make it in time for the SSD Linus. I may lose this one, but damn it,

496
00:46:24,240 --> 00:46:29,440
I'm gonna look good doing it. He said 1110 is the latest he can do. Okay, we gotta go then.

497
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:36,080
I'm coming. Okay. Now. Oh God, we need to get these products listed. Can I take apart a computer in

498
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:42,000
the backseat? I guess we're doing that. Hey, look at that. This NAS build has one of those old

499
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:49,440
LTT edition and FF12 fans. Oh. Hello. Good. Good. How are you? Good. I talked with my boss, so

500
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:54,880
are you available tomorrow? Oh, unfortunately, no. It would have to be today. That's the tech shop

501
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,480
that we called yesterday calling back. I worry that this place is going to know my voice though,

502
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:04,080
because I've definitely called her. You got me good. What's your name? Luke. Duke. Duke? I think it's

503
00:47:04,720 --> 00:47:07,680
Okay, awesome. Thanks. Sorry for, sorry for being difficult here.

504
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:14,080
1130 this morning. Okay, great. Okay, so we might have some pretty major curve balls because that's

505
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:19,040
the shop. And they could potentially have a keyboard mouse. Yes. For us, which would save us the 10

506
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:23,120
bucks. Some audio thing, probably not. But they would also probably have DDR4 RAM. So if we really

507
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:28,000
want to, we could look at the speed and go to 32 gigs or we could find faster memory. It also

508
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,480
be a possibility for a platform swap. Yeah. This could like, this could really change a lot dramatically

509
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:37,600
change things. According to this board, it says it has an NVMe slot. I don't see it though. So I

510
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,040
don't know if it's on the back or under the GPU. So I'm going to pull this back out and take a quick

511
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:45,600
look. Yeah, there it is. Okay, cool. I also I'm going to take out the RAM. I want to see what speed

512
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:51,120
we have on this. Just so when we go look there, maybe they have faster or if they have similar,

513
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:55,840
we could potentially go from 16 to 32 or something. A lot up in the air right now. So I took the RAM

514
00:47:55,840 --> 00:48:00,480
out. It actually does support up to 3200. So we could just enable XMP and hopefully get that full

515
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:07,680
performance much better than 2133 or whatever it was. How are the listings going? I might have a

516
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:17,680
buyer for a bunch of stuff. This guy might want RAM, CPU, case, MOBO and GPU. Okay. He's making me

517
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:23,840
kind of a low offer, but we are over budget right now and we need some money. We just need the SSD.

518
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,880
We need a monitor. Monitor. That's the thing. Literally doing the makeup on the way there.

519
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:35,360
This is quite funny. I love this. A little bit of balancing. All right. Baking right. Nice.

520
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:42,080
Okay. Nice. Okay. Well, we're here. All right. I misspelled outside three times. Okay. Well,

521
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:51,760
that's never better. How do I look? Great. Never better. Hi. For the keyboard, I don't have cash

522
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:57,360
on me. Can I e-transfer you at all? Okay. So it was $10, right? And can I take a look at the keyboard?

523
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,600
Thank you. Do you want to try it out? Do you think I'll like this one? We have the WASD

524
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:10,480
Gamer. Okay. Thank you. It's good. It's good. Okay. Thank you. Let me know if you get it or

525
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,560
it should be sent. Sounds good. Yeah. Thank you very much. Have a good day. Okay. Thank you.

526
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:21,840
I don't know. He glanced at me a couple of times, but I'm not sure if he suspected anything.

527
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:27,840
I need the address for the second place. Oh, yeah, for sure. Sorry. Yeah, for sure.

528
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,160
And can you let them know that we're on our way? We'll be there around 11.25.

529
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:38,800
Hi, this is Duke. I'm on the road now. The current ETA is 11.40. Does that still work?

530
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:48,080
Yeah, sure. I'll let them know if you're there. Do you need a loop or a loop? Duke. Duke. Okay. It comes up as a loop. So, like, did I get your name wrong?

531
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,760
Oh, yeah. That's a weird thing with Facebook. I actually changed my name

532
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:59,200
quite a few years back, but Facebook sometimes just doesn't. It sends the old one. I don't know.

533
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,600
Okay. Yeah, I'll let them know if you're going to be there at 11.40.

534
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,680
Okay. Sounds good. I never messaged them on Facebook. That's caller ID.

535
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:14,160
Yep. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, no. Well, we'll see how this goes. We're good?

536
00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:23,360
Yeah. I'm just going to powder it. Man, buddy here wants $250 for a Ryzen 3600 with Cooler and

537
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:30,000
motherboard and the Corsair case and 8 gigs of RAM and the 1660 Super and the CX430 power supply.

538
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:35,120
That pretty much leaves us with only, like, kind of worthless stuff. That's basically all we can

539
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:39,920
sell. That puts us back in the green, though. How much in the green? By, like, 80, 90 bucks.

540
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:44,160
I'm going to do 250 with the Cougar case. I'm going to say final offer.

541
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:48,960
So we keep the nice case from Daniel. Yep. It'd be nice to be able to move all this to one person.

542
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:54,000
We don't have, like, a week to dick around selling to half a dozen different people.

543
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:58,000
Where the hell is Dunbar Community Center? He wants us to go all the way out to Vancouver.

544
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:03,200
That is in the middle of f***ing nowhere. I don't live in Dunbar. Should I offer to come all the

545
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:09,600
way to Dunbar for an extra 10 bucks? 10. 15? 15. I'm being a fair guy. I'm a fair guy.

546
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:14,240
Oh man, we are bang on time for this guy. Let's go. What does this work?

547
00:51:16,240 --> 00:51:23,120
Hello. Hello. Hi, nice to meet you. Yes, this is John. Hi. Yes. Can I get you to put in your

548
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:30,080
e-transfer? No, cash only. Oh, we have 100. I have a change. Oh, okay. Perfect. So, John, I did test

549
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:35,280
and they sent you the screenshot of the test. Oh, good. Can you see it on the messages? Yeah.

550
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,160
Yeah. Okay, great. Thank you very much. Do you want to give him the cash? Yeah.

551
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:44,800
80 bucks? Yes. Thank you. I'm kind of in a rush here. Oh, no worries. Thank you very much.

552
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:51,200
Thank you. Have a great day. Thank you. Okay, thank you. I'll walk slow for you. Hi, young lady.

553
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,920
I don't think I got mated either the last two. No. No. I was, like, a little sus because he,

554
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,960
like, smiled a bit too much. Yeah, I think he was just friendly. Hey, Tom. Hey, Tom. Right there,

555
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:08,800
buddy. All right. Rock on. Let's go. All right. Bye-bye. Let me find out if this guy, if we

556
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:13,920
got a deal with him, have we confirmed a time with the desk guy? He said anytime before five. Hell,

557
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:18,800
yeah, that's super flexible. Okay, that helps a lot. Where is he at? Somewhere in Surrey. Okay,

558
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,800
beautiful. Beautiful. You know what? We might pull this off. All right, so we're almost at the

559
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:27,040
computer shop. I am getting progressively more worried that they're going to recognize me,

560
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:36,400
but I will be going in with Lindsay, who is my sister. Yes. Okay. Yeah, we're building a computer

561
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:44,640
for our other sister's son, our nephew, Ryan, who is seven. Here's the whole, I got to add in the

562
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:50,960
hat. This is the full ensemble, which is not a word I will be saying while we're inside.

563
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:55,360
A biker would never say that word. No, I don't think so. Yeah. Full get up. This is a get up.

564
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:03,120
This f*****g offered $10 fee and me in the afternoon. I think we might have to take it. I

565
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:07,680
guess if that's the best we got, that's the best we got. F*****g ruthless. He's getting a great deal.

566
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:13,440
The good news is his deal wasn't as good as mine. So I'm still out ahead. Let's go. One thing I will

567
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:17,760
tell you about Pal knows he is not getting these knock to a fans. I'm going to swap them out for

568
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:22,160
the fans that are in that other system. We've got five knock to a fans in here. He's getting zero

569
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:28,880
of them. Oh my God. See, I was afraid of this. Our mass storage, Sammy, is going to be a mobile

570
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:34,880
two and a half inch hard drive. Look at the little thing. Hello. We are here. I've got to leave you

571
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:40,000
guys behind now, but we're going to go in there and try to get her done, which is something he

572
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:47,040
would say. All right. So keyboard, mouse, desk pad, speakers, chair. If they have a chair, you

573
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:53,120
could get a second power supply just in case. If there's RAM, that's like similar speed or

574
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:58,160
like slightly slower, but we can get more of it. That might also be better. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And

575
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:02,240
then platform swap. If I don't know, they're recycling 11th gens or something like, you don't

576
00:54:02,240 --> 00:54:06,240
think they'll have an AMD? They never, we never dealt with AMD when we built the systems unless

577
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:10,880
they're recycling someone else's computer. That is AMD. All right. Let me try to hide the mics

578
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:14,400
real quick. Yeah. Make sure mics are hidden. I'm like so nervous. I don't know why. I'm not even

579
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:20,240
going in there and I'm the nervous one. I'm wearing a wire, dude. I think I'm just going to have one

580
00:54:20,240 --> 00:54:23,840
wire coming down, but honestly, I don't think they're going to notice it. I think him going in

581
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:29,600
with Lindsay is actually going to help a ton too. Okay, cool. All right. See you guys in a bit. You're

582
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:35,440
ready? Yeah. We'll make it work. Yeah. Or we won't. It'll be funny. Yeah. My name's still Lindsay

583
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:40,560
right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're trying to make a computer for our nephew, Ryan. Right now,

584
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:46,080
we're mostly looking for a keyboard, a mouse, maybe a power supply if there's one of those.

585
00:54:46,720 --> 00:54:51,440
Sorry, I'm not 100% up on the terminology, but the main part I'm hoping the disguise is working then.

586
00:54:51,440 --> 00:55:00,400
Horizon. Horizon 1700. Yeah. Would you mind if I ripped that one out? Yeah. Would that be okay?

587
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:06,720
Also, some RAM maybe, but it would need to be DDR4, which I think that might be 3. Yeah. Some

588
00:55:06,720 --> 00:55:12,080
power supplies here. All of these are going to be 351. I don't have a screwdriver with me here.

589
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:16,720
Do you have one with you or we can go upstairs and grab one from there too? Okay.

590
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:25,840
Cool. Thank you very much. Okay, they literally just like walk right in front of the car. I know

591
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:31,040
this guy who knows me. I used to come here and get free tech all the time, so it's going to be a little

592
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:38,400
size. Unfortunately, the platform we currently have is the DDR4, but I appreciate the look.

593
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:41,920
Oh, nice. Okay. Awesome.

594
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,840
That's okay. I appreciate it. Power supply in the mouse will come in handy.

595
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,520
Good luck finding the rest of the pieces. Thank you. Now that this is concluded,

596
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,200
I will say I noticed the LTT screwdriver. Did you recognize me at all?

597
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,040
I do. Yeah. Might be a little easier without the glasses.

598
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:06,000
We have the glasses and the tattoos. The beard and the tattoos and stuff.

599
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:10,560
When we were about to leave, he gave me a few looks that were like a little longer than they

600
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:15,040
probably normally would have been. I could tell he was like trying to pierce the glasses a little

601
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:19,600
bit and then we went inside and he handed me the LTT screwdriver and I was like, well, all right.

602
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:24,640
I was like, okay, from here on, if he offers anything like crazy, then I'm going to have to

603
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:32,400
say no, but we got an old PowerMan 350 watt power supply. I think this is like an IBM Thinkpad

604
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:37,840
mouse. So all we need now technically is a keyboard, audio solution and a chair and audio.

605
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:41,440
This mouse sucks. We're probably still going to want to buy that combo set and we don't need

606
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:45,360
the audio today. Is that right? I guess technically not. We could get the audio tomorrow. So we're

607
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,720
doing okay, actually. So I think we should head back and try to get this computer going.

608
00:56:48,720 --> 00:56:49,840
All right, I'm adjusting lanes.

609
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:55,040
Hey, there we go. Oh, just, you know, part of the life.

610
00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:02,240
Have to have a constant makeup person. What's up, brother? Here's the rundown. Our GPU arrived

611
00:57:02,240 --> 00:57:06,800
from Java, which means combined with storage, we have everything to put together our final computer.

612
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:12,560
We've got the deal to sell most of our leftovers, but it's way in Vancouver, super far away and

613
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:18,560
the deal sucks. This whole offered $10 fee and me in the afternoon. I think we might have to take

614
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:23,360
it. I guess if that's the best we got, that's the best we got. With all that said, priority number

615
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:30,560
one is to get this damn sweater off. I'm dying right now. It's so warm. Okay, let's get a system

616
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:35,120
built. Have you ever built a computer before? Yes. Okay, good. Build a computer. Go. No kidding,

617
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:40,320
I'll help. Okay, let's do this thing. I have a gift for you. Oh, these Java special edition

618
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:44,560
screwdrivers. Oh, get rid of this one. This one's gone. Oh, okay. Yeah, this is great.

619
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:49,920
Are our sponsor Java? Well, I mean, it's from us, isn't it? Yeah, we made it, but we wouldn't have

620
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:55,680
made it without their colors. Thanks, Java. We're actually going to be giving some of these away

621
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:59,360
on Flowplain at the end of this and Java is also going to be giving some away. So

622
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:05,440
you want to check them out online? I'm taking all of the, whoa. Thanks, Daniel. And then let's get

623
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:08,720
all of these cheap fans out of here and then we're going to replace them with the Noctwiz that are

624
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,880
in the other case. Oh, yeah, that's something you can do, Sammy. Do I also get a Java edition

625
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:18,320
screwdriver for now? Thank you. Wow, lots of Noctua fans. Oh yeah, no, Sammy's got more.

626
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:23,200
What? Yeah. More fans. Oh, I found us some speakers. Sammy, check out these speakers,

627
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:30,560
yo. 20 bucks. You smell like glue. Well, you smell like we're about to get a good deal. 20 bucks.

628
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:36,160
That's good. Thank you, speaker guy. 6 p.m. Ah, sorry. You're doing great, Sammy.

629
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:41,040
How is the selling going? I don't think anyone else has messaged. So when are we supposed to

630
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:45,280
meet Pal? I haven't confirmed yet, but this afternoon. Oh my God, it's afternoon. We do not

631
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:50,960
want to get stuck in rush hour traffic today. No. I know it doesn't really matter, but it's not

632
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:55,920
getting these Noctua fans. We want the Noctua fans. Question for you, Linus. Are you doing Windows 10

633
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:59,520
or 11? Well, unlike some people, I'm compatible with Windows 11. What do you know about the

634
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,600
other system? I know that I'm compatible with Windows 11 and they're asking about Windows 10.

635
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,160
So I say we're on Windows 11. I don't know how to suit this fan and it's really tight.

636
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:12,720
Okay. There you go. I don't want to break anything. No, no, you're good. If you break it,

637
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:17,680
just remember this guy's a hole. Oh, okay. One thing I'm concerned about is we bargained with

638
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:22,720
no one. We tried with the GPUs and they are both just like, no. And those were a lot cheaper than

639
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:27,360
the rest of the market. We probably should have tried to bargain with 170 guy for the system,

640
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:31,200
but once he recognized you, I couldn't bargain anymore. And it wasn't worth

641
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:37,360
not getting it at that point because we needed something. We're going to lose CPU stuff. We will.

642
00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:41,840
I guarantee you they'll have a better CPU. Linus is going to take a more rounded approach. I

643
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:46,480
bet you his setup is going to be nicer in general. I bet you he's going to have a better CPU. And

644
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:51,760
then we're going to come in with the like the club with nails driven through it of a 3080.

645
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:56,080
You're like, what's up? You want to go? Big update. We've got a new buyer. Okay. His name's

646
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,480
better motherboard, but he's way closer. And I talked him into taking the Cougar case. Yes.

647
01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:12,240
Let's go. So let's get this board out of here because we're no longer using it. Okay. And we

648
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:16,560
got to get the CPU swapped and we got to get out of here. And I got to put my beard back on. When

649
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:21,680
are we meeting him? We're meeting him before 230. As soon as I told pal that I had another offer,

650
01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:26,160
he's like, well, what's the deal? All of a sudden he wants to negotiate. You know what? F*** you.

651
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:31,840
Pal. In all fairness, I respect the hustle. I do respect the hustle. I respect how we did to

652
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:38,080
other people in previous shows. And this one. F***ing pal. That just means like, bro, I swear

653
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,920
nobody keeps their word these days. Whatever, man. Enjoy. Enjoy. And I'm like, if he backs out,

654
01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:47,200
I'll let you know. He goes, he ain't. Oh, so now he knows what a good deal it is. F*** you. Pal.

655
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:52,640
One more. This cooler is going with this board. This CPU comes out though. So that's our 4500.

656
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:58,400
Okay. And then our 3600 is going to go in here. You could throw like a tiny bit more goop on there,

657
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:02,080
but the goop that's on there is probably fun. You know what? Here. Here. Goop transplant.

658
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:07,040
Oh, yeah. Should we take a photo of it before we put it on? No, he wants to boot it up while

659
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:11,200
we're there. Buddy wants to see it post, which makes sense. So what I was thinking was, oh,

660
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:18,480
that's a lot. Whatever. So what I was thinking was we will just build it. Can we try to post it

661
01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:23,840
before we leave? Yeah. Do we have another Ramstick? He gets one Ramstick. Oh, he gets one Ramstick.

662
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:29,680
Why am I? You're building his system. Oh, I see. These fans, you can just basically find

663
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:34,800
anywhere that looks like that and just kind of plug them in. So there's, I don't think we're

664
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:41,200
going to do cable management on this bad boy. Nice. Got it. Perfect. Thank you. Hard drives in,

665
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:46,560
everything's in. The reason I want to see this post before we go is that if for whatever reason,

666
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:53,280
this system does not work. Now is the time for us to tell Buddy, hey, look, sorry,

667
01:01:54,160 --> 01:02:00,400
we can't spare the motherboard or whatever. You know, this is mostly Daniel's system anyway.

668
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:07,040
We've got his RAM, his cooler, his motherboard. It's just the CPU from the weird Craigslist guy.

669
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:15,120
All right. Okay. All my fans spin. That's a good sign. GPU fans spin. Thank you, Jawa. Show me an

670
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:20,400
output. Your time, buddy. It's okay. Sometimes it takes a minute or two. No HDMI signal from your

671
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:24,960
device going in this time by mode. I wonder if it needs a BIOS update. Well, we're going to have

672
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:31,280
to gamble. We've got to go meet the guy. Let's make sure that this one posts. Now's the time. Oh,

673
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:36,320
there we go. Let's power it off. Here's what we're going to do, Sammy. We are going to do the world's

674
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:41,520
fastest BIOS update. I need that CPU. The CPU? The one that's in there. So here's what I want to see.

675
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:48,160
I want to see this motherboard post with a definitely compatible CPU. All right. Not stressed.

676
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:53,840
Not stressed. It's still not posting. No, it's stuck on CPU. Are you kidding me? Oh, no, no, no, no,

677
01:02:53,840 --> 01:03:01,200
no. This is bad. Did we plug it into the GPU power supply correctly? Yep. Come on. Come on.

678
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:08,320
Oh, I think it's doing stuff. It's doing stuff. Oh, thank God. Okay. Okay. I am sweating absolute

679
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:13,600
buckets right now and flash. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. No, no, this is fine. Everything's

680
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:21,040
fine. What time is it? We're still going to be okay, but we have to go like now. Hey, here we go.

681
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:27,920
Yeah. So the BIOS on this board is from 2020. So that's why it wasn't posting with this 4000

682
01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:32,640
series chip. Just hadn't had support added for it yet. This is good. Let's take a moment and talk

683
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:36,640
about one of the great features of Java. If you want to skip the hassle of listing your GPU for

684
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:41,280
sale on a marketplace, you can sell it directly to Java to help offset the cost of your upgrade.

685
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:45,280
Hilariously, after all the negotiations with the guy that we're selling this one to,

686
01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:48,560
we actually would have gotten a very similar offer from Java. So we could have just saved the

687
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:53,520
trouble. Check out java.gg. And you can also participate in the giveaways that they have

688
01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:57,440
lined up for scrapyard bores. Thanks for sponsoring this series, Java. What's our ETA, Sammy?

689
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:04,080
17 minutes plus whatever a few minutes. So it should be 20. Hell yeah. Here it is. I need to see

690
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:08,960
it post with this chip. This is it. This is where we find out if it posts with the 4500. I mean,

691
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:16,480
the compatibility list says yes. Theoretically, it's fine. Yes. Okay, let's go. The t-shirt's

692
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:23,840
not great. Literally says LTT on it. Or he just doesn't know who we are. This is it. Hi. Further PC.

693
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:31,360
I'm just going to go into task manager. Oh yeah, no storage right? No. So it's not going to boot

694
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:37,360
into task manager. It'll just be the BIOS, but it posts. Yeah, it looks good to me. Sounds good.

695
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:40,400
Okay, thank you. Thank you very much. Have a good day. Thank you. Have a good day.

696
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:46,000
Young man, do you know Linus Tech Tips? Yeah. Oh, really? Would you recognize him if you saw him?

697
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:54,480
Wait, no way. Do you want to be in the video? Are you serious? Yeah. Wait, really? Hi.

698
01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:01,280
I always thought if I saw, you guys see them in the video, not recognize, they're like,

699
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:10,080
oh, if I saw him, I would know. No, I don't. We got him. I didn't. It's fake. Dude, I'm not this old.

700
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:14,320
It's a big battle. What are you trying to say right now? That went about as well as it could

701
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:19,120
have possibly gone. Tom, you missed it, but this was someone who regularly watches the channel,

702
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:24,560
watches the podcast, literally knew we were doing scrapyard wars right now. He's like, I hope.

703
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:29,920
And still didn't make me. Very good. Good work, man. So what's our next stop? To pick up the

704
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:34,080
desk, right? But we need the truck. We're going back. Yeah, we got to go back. We'll pick up a chair

705
01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:39,920
and lunch and then come back. And then at 4pm, it sounds like we're going to pick up the keyboard

706
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:44,240
mouse. Keyboard mouse, mouse pad. Okay. Well, Luke is out getting some more stuff. I was taking

707
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:52,240
this to the shop to give it a dust and holy crap. I am glad I did. This is nasty and a fire hazard.

708
01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:58,000
Okay. So we got the chair. It's in the back. We strapped it down. I don't know how excited

709
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:04,400
they were to see Duke. They said nothing, zero words. When I got to the door, I picked it up,

710
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:11,520
said thanks. Still no response left. Nothing. But hey, we got a chair. There we go. A little bit

711
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:15,520
better. There's still a tiny bit of dust in there, but I don't want to take the air compressor too

712
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:21,200
hard because it'll spin that fan. This is more than clean for kind of this top down look here

713
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:25,600
and even just from the back. So I think we're going to be good there. We made a decision

714
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:29,840
really early on because we were trying to get things shipped on time from Java where we were

715
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:34,880
going to get a standard SATA SSD because we weren't sure what platform we were going to end up with

716
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:39,440
and if it was even going to have an M.2 slot or whatever else. But that's not like a normal problem

717
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:43,280
that you would have if you were doing this. We're actually upgrading because we found that the best

718
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:49,520
SSD option that we could find was an M.2 off of Java anyways. Luckily, we've been able to do a bit

719
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:54,720
of a swap there. We found this Patriot P300 on Java, which was great. We unfortunately can't get it

720
01:06:54,800 --> 01:07:00,080
in time to Canada, but that's okay. The judges deemed that this Intel 660p is more than equivalent

721
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:03,760
enough for us to install in our system. That way, we'd actually have a system to turn in today.

722
01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:10,320
Thankfully, I think that SSD might actually like save us. Saved one of our benchmarks. I still

723
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:14,160
don't think we're necessarily going to win that one. They might have a better platform. They have

724
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,960
a better one with like more cash or something. We'll still lose almost certainly all the other

725
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:23,360
CPU bound benchmarks, but hopefully we crush the GPU ones enough. And I hope they let us put Ray

726
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:28,560
Tracing on. Because if they let us put Ray Tracing on, we will destroy certainly whatever they have.

727
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:35,280
Are you nervous? You look nervous. No, I'm not nervous. You look super nervous.

728
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:39,760
It's DDR4, right? Yeah. You know, if it doesn't work, we can just plant some like

729
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,600
thermite in there. And when they go to start benchmarking, we'll just light it all on fire.

730
01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:49,280
We'll be like, whoops. As part of our promoting things that are available on LTTstore.com, each team

731
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:55,440
got one of our PTM7950 phase change thermal pads. These are great thermal pad material from Honeywell

732
01:07:55,440 --> 01:08:00,720
that performs really, really well. Super easy to apply. You don't have to deal with any kind of

733
01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:05,440
liquid metal type nonsense. It's non-conductive. And we're going to use that to get really great

734
01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:13,440
temps on our CPU. But I'm also considering maybe putting it on the GPU. Is it worth it to tear

735
01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:18,560
the cooler off this thing? What's our budget? So we've got 130 bucks. Monitor mouse, mouse pad,

736
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:25,920
desk chair, and everything else. This is so doable. I messaged someone with a Logitech mouse earlier.

737
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:32,080
Did I hear back? Oh, he's available from 430 to 530. How much is this guy? 15 bucks for a

738
01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:37,200
Hyperion 402. Maybe ask Buddy if he has a mouse pad. Well, he's only available from 430. So we need

739
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:44,480
to go pick up the desk first and then we will go to mouse guy. Well, 15 bucks for a mouse pad

740
01:08:44,480 --> 01:08:50,080
or for a mouse. Right. I was going to tell you, I wouldn't normally bother to repaste a GPU this

741
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:54,880
new. It's probably fine. But knowing that the judges are going to be looking at temperatures,

742
01:08:54,880 --> 01:09:01,680
I'm going to repaste this thing. Ben Q, 144 Hertz. He's willing to take 70, 24 inch monitor. Comes

743
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:07,600
with DVI cable and power cord. DVI cable might be a bit loose. But that monitor might be DVI only

744
01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:13,440
for higher refresh rate as well. It's just continued. Specs. DP 1.2. Let's just do it. I can stop

745
01:09:13,440 --> 01:09:18,480
looking at DP to DVI adapters. But we have to pick up the desk first. If we want to leave, we have

746
01:09:18,480 --> 01:09:24,960
to leave basically now. Are you grabbing the other end of this for me? Yeah. How bad is it? It's

747
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:29,840
fine. Nothing, nothing wrong. Okay, that was fun. Pencil is downtime today, right? For the computer

748
01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:33,360
hoping for five. No, no, you'll have the computer before. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's fine. Six is fine.

749
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:36,880
I'll have the computer for you before we go out again. Yeah. Ideally, you and Luke will go

750
01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:41,440
together to hand the computers off. We have like four stops to make in the next couple hours here.

751
01:09:41,440 --> 01:09:47,600
We need to go now. But Windows update. Okay. Windows update. This guy's down for another five

752
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:55,040
dollars. Thank you so much. Negotiators. You're the best period. It's possible this hard drive

753
01:09:55,040 --> 01:10:01,200
does not work. Sammy, you dropped it, hey? Sorry. Yeah. It's definitely not detected. I know that

754
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:06,240
much. I mean, we don't need it. I don't think we need it. As long as they're not installing

755
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:12,400
too large of games. How much is our SSD? Our SSD was 20 bucks. No, but like how much stored? 256.

756
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:17,440
Oh, that's fine. Should be okay. Can you swing by an occasionally Windows update? Yes. I also

757
01:10:17,440 --> 01:10:22,400
haven't put the latest NVIDIA drivers on. I can do that. Other than that, she's tuned. Let's go.

758
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:26,800
I feel like where Sammy is really going to come into her own as the superior assistant

759
01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:31,280
is tomorrow when we're setting everything up to be aesthetic because Elijah's got a lot going for

760
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:37,920
him. It's pretty tech savvy, very enthusiastic, but aesthetic sense. Sammy, you got him, right?

761
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:45,120
Yeah. It's so casual. All right. We are off to our last pickup of the day. We are trying to get a

762
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:50,960
keyboard mouse and mousepad combo for 10 bucks. Then that'll leave us with just an audio setup

763
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:55,520
that we need to get. So we're hoping with, you know, basically the entire day of tomorrow,

764
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:59,040
we're going to be able to pick up some free speakers or something from somewhere.

765
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:04,480
I won't have the makeup tomorrow. Hopefully whoever wants to sell it to us won't recognize me.

766
01:11:04,480 --> 01:11:10,320
All right. Well, Luke and Glenn are still out. I am going to attempt to enable XMP. We'll change

767
01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:15,760
that to XMP profile one. Let's see if our computer boots again. It's starting up again, which is good.

768
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:28,640
Oh, maybe not. Oh, oh, oh, oh. I'm on BIOS. Okay. That's good. Memory, 3200. Look at that.

769
01:11:29,440 --> 01:11:33,040
This is getting me excited. I've been very stressed just trying to get everything installed

770
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,560
and working. Like I'm confident it's going to boot and I'm confident we're going to be fine,

771
01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:44,080
but it's just I'm still nervous. Yeah. So we're on like a 2017 BIOS. That's not great. Let's update

772
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:51,200
this. So we got back from the keyboard mouse and mouse pad. I think it's a win. I won't show you

773
01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:56,400
all the stuff now because of like dangers of driving, but that doesn't sound like great actually.

774
01:11:56,400 --> 01:12:04,000
It's definitely like a cheap no-back plate. Look at that. Kind of like knockoff mechanical keyboard,

775
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:08,960
but it's a mechanical keyboard technically. And the mouse is another one of those kind of like,

776
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:13,680
it looks like maybe like a final mouse or something like that. It's not.

777
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:18,880
And we technically have a mouse pad. So it's okay stuff. Considering we got it for 10 bucks,

778
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:23,760
I'm very, very happy with it. Mouse guy. Yeah. I was like, would you go down to 10? He left me

779
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:28,960
unread. I say, okay, no problem. I'll still come pick up around five. Now, just where the devil

780
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:34,720
are we going, Sammy? This is like a strip ball. Yeah, it's a business. They're giving away desks

781
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:43,120
and chairs and they close at 5pm. Wait. Oh my God. That would be hilarious. This is my realtor's

782
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:49,200
office. No way. What? We might get an opportunity to see if I can pass to someone who knows me

783
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:56,480
reasonably well. Hi. We were told to come here for a desk to pick up. Let's go. We'll grab the desk

784
01:12:56,480 --> 01:13:05,200
first. Does Ben still work out of this office? Is he here right now? Let me watch my hands.

785
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:10,560
All those 10 hours. Right there. Yep. There we go. So the green one's greener, but that one's

786
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,080
kind of a better condition. Yeah, I think we should take the one in better condition. Take the

787
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:18,960
gray one. Okay. Do you mind if I see if Ben's around? Sure. You can go now. Okay. Thanks so much.

788
01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:31,360
Hello. The ladies downstairs said you were giving away some desks. I just wanted to say thank you.

789
01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:34,560
Hey, welcome.

790
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:45,200
Recognize me yet? He bought a house for me. Oh, more than just that. The get up is we're shooting

791
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:49,760
a video. This is one of my team members. We're filming you. Sorry, Ben. Sorry to ambush you

792
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:55,600
like that. Anyway, thanks for the desk. All right. See you later, Ben. Oh, the look on his face. It's

793
01:13:55,680 --> 01:14:02,320
hilarious. So Ben sold us the LMG office. He represented us when we bought the lab.

794
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:10,320
He sold me and Yvonne our first home. No, we go way back with Ben. Wait, DVI out on the board?

795
01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:17,280
Yeah. PS2? It's like first gen Ryzen, bro. It works. Okay. Okay. Oh, you're on the best part. To get

796
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:22,880
the board updated to the latest BIOS, I had to do five BIOS updates because I couldn't jump from

797
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:27,040
the original. Yeah, yeah. It was on the original. That's pretty normal, actually. It was on 2017,

798
01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:32,480
but it booted. We'll see how it goes. There is one fan on the Zotac that is off balance,

799
01:14:32,480 --> 01:14:38,640
and so when it stops, it'll get lopsided. And then when we reboot, it picks up again. But I can

800
01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:44,640
fix it by just like kind of giving it another go. Should we just tape it so it doesn't ever spin?

801
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:51,040
So here's where we can really gain. The performance that Labs tests is not final performance.

802
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:58,560
As long as our system is stable when we drag race it, it's fine. The things that Labs testing

803
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:05,200
that are final is things like noise. So we take the tape off tomorrow. Yes. I'm so down. Pull the

804
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:14,240
limiter out. Well, this is just cyberpunk being cyberpunk. Starting to take off, dude. We are

805
01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:20,880
averaging 60 FPS though. Are you murdering innocent civilians? Yes, that's good. That's a mentality

806
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:27,280
we need in this graph yard. Duke. Good training, young Mike. We got to use that on the streets.

807
01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:32,880
What quality setting is this? We're on like ultra at 1080p. That's pretty sick. That is pretty loud

808
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:36,000
though, and I don't think we're going to be able to use this. Well, the side panel is not on either.

809
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:43,200
Sure, yeah. That's not better at all. Is it kicking off a lot of heat? No. And the air volume is also

810
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:47,680
very bad. Yeah, these fans are pretty rinky-dinky. I should have just taken that whole system from

811
01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:52,960
stratum. Yeah. Pulled the fans out of it. Because having no fans in the top too is like kind of

812
01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:57,120
rough. Yeah. You'll be able to mess with fan profiles and stuff too. Yeah. I mean, our GPU is

813
01:15:57,120 --> 01:16:02,160
getting up to 87 degrees, 88 degrees. Maybe we shouldn't mess with fan profiles. Yeah, CPU is

814
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:07,440
at 50. Our CPU is like fine actually. Taping plan was fun. Yeah. But when it's cranked up,

815
01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:14,640
that was on cue. Yeah. Well, when it's cranked up, the fan is fine. And honestly,

816
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:18,160
I think we might need it. Yeah, let's just let her be loud. She's just allowed. Because I think

817
01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:22,720
people got to realize like GPUs are loud. Can we steal some of the sound foam? What happens if we like

818
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:29,600
I think it just is loud though. Yeah, I don't think it's going to help that much. Yeah. I'm

819
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,640
trying to I'm trying to gain, but we got zero minutes left. So I think we just got to kind of

820
01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:38,640
the line. This isn't back yet. So you got a bit more time. Yeah, we're ready. He's late. That

821
01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:42,560
traditionally comes with downsides. I'm just saying what the downsides are

822
01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:48,720
varies. I don't know. There's been crazy ones where it was like 10% every 10 minutes. Yeah.

823
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:55,600
Every 10 minutes over the deadline was minus 10% I believe to your score. And it sort of depends

824
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:58,800
on how late it is. Like if you're like five minutes late, it's like who gives a ****. But

825
01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:03,680
if he shows up at six. That's kind of a big deal. I saw that message. I'm being asking what the ETA

826
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:09,760
was. So typical Linus always late. Yeah, I gave them permission to pick something up later, but

827
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:16,720
I told them they had to be back at five to do this. So they're late for that part of it.

828
01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:21,600
I said Sammy could pick it up till six because I technically they're on 10 till six. I might

829
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:26,960
just send you and Sammy for this pickup. Oh man. I'm negotiating with David. Apparently we don't

830
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,280
have enough storage for all the benchmarks. Maybe we should have looked at what the benchmark

831
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:38,480
requirements were. Yeah, that's not going to work for tomorrow, he says. Oh man. I mean,

832
01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:43,600
do we get a random hard drive? We have to get it done by today. I don't know what's going on. Yeah,

833
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:47,920
how are we going to get another drive? I mean, we can afford it. Yeah. I had no idea we were

834
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:53,920
going to need more than 256 gigs. So it's this complex here. Hey, what unit was it? We don't

835
01:17:54,000 --> 01:18:00,080
know where this what unit this guy lives and he's not responding. So the mouse steal is dead.

836
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:06,240
I guess so. Bummer. Now David's calling me. Hey David. How are you? I'm not going to lie. I still

837
01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:11,120
have not looked at the benchmark requirements. I suppose it mentions that we need some amount of

838
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:17,840
storage. It's not specifically specified that you need a certain amount of storage. Then I guess

839
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:22,720
we won't get anything docked for that. That's not true. Hold on, hold on, just a gosh darn minute

840
01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:27,120
here. If it's not a requirement, it's not a requirement. It's an implied requirement that

841
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:32,560
the benchmark need to be installed. You can't have an implied requirement, sir. Is the problem that

842
01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:38,160
your drive is broken? Yes, my drive is broken. But I had one working drive, so I figured I was in

843
01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:43,920
good shape. Your drive works. What? Which one? The 750? I just plugged it in and then detected right

844
01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:49,680
away. Really? Oh, mouse guy. Just replied, sorry. Well then that's great. So we'll use the hard drive?

845
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:54,480
So what I had intended to do actually was set them up as tiered storage, but... We can delay

846
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:59,520
so Luke can go hand his PC in. They can start the testing on his. Then when you get back,

847
01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:04,000
you can set up the tiered storage. No, I don't think I'm going to be able to. Because to set up

848
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:08,080
tiered storage, you have to install to the hard drive. Can you just tell me what the benchmarks

849
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:13,840
are and then... I can pull it up. Just like you could have, based on the document I sent out

850
01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:18,560
earlier today. We have never had it in the past that you have to have all the benchmarks on the

851
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:24,320
drive at a time. So if that wasn't explicitly in the rules, I expect there to be no penalty for

852
01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:28,960
this. And the fact that I happen to have a working drive, it turns out that's a bonus.

853
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:32,800
Did you really think we were going to all stand around do that, or are you just playing a game

854
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:38,800
to try and win? We've done that before. No, I'm serious. The amount of storage, unless it's

855
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:43,680
explicitly laid out, is just whatever it is. And you just install whatever you need when you need

856
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:48,320
it. When we've tested in the past. Okay, that's what the subjective scoring is for. It's to bring

857
01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:52,800
you to marriage there. That's going to be up to the judges. But yeah, it will affect the subjective

858
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:58,640
scoring. Yeah, yeah, that's fine. No, no, I knew that. So David, put whatever the most storage dependent

859
01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:02,880
ones are on the SSD and then put everything else on the hard drive, I guess. Okay, sounds good.

860
01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:09,360
All right, thanks, David. We doing this thing? How much was it? 15. Hello, mouse guy. Oh, thank you.

861
01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:15,280
Great. Do you think I like this? Yep. Lots of buttons, gamer. Yeah, it's good. It's my ex-girlfriend.

862
01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:18,960
Oh, sorry to hear that. No, no, no, that's fine. Then I'm glad to hear that.

863
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:26,080
I built a computer for and everything. So 15? Yeah. Okay. How'd you learn to

864
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:30,880
build computers? It's pretty easy. Like, honestly, if you watch on YouTube, it's super easy to do.

865
01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:35,760
What's like a good channel? Yeah, we got to build one right now. So. Oh, really? Yeah. Just what would

866
01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:40,800
we look up, you think? Like, honestly, NCI-X will do it for like a hundred bucks, too. If you're

867
01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:45,680
like very unsure about like what you're doing. No good channel, sir. I don't think NCI-X is in

868
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:52,640
business. I'm very surprised. Oh, what was that channel that you knew? Linus Tech Tips. Oh, okay.

869
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:57,360
Oh, Linus is, he's really good. Oh, okay, really? Yeah, I heard he's from Vancouver. I think he's in

870
01:20:57,360 --> 01:21:02,160
Langley. Yeah, it's a really small world. Yeah, yeah. Okay, thank you. Would you want to be in one of

871
01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:07,840
Linus' videos? I mean, I think you're wearing his shirt right now. Really? Yeah. Really, am I? I like him.

872
01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:12,720
Yeah. Do I? Do I look like him? Yes, you do. Are you sure? Yeah. Okay, how long did it take you

873
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:17,440
to recognize me? I actually thought I recognized you pretty early and then I noticed the shirt.

874
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:23,040
The damn shirt. I had the sweater in there. We've been running around today, man. Thankfully,

875
01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:27,920
I think that SSD might actually like save us. Saved one of our benchmarks. So, it'll take

876
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:33,600
a second to cook up because that's just what Steam does. Our disk usage is climbing. We're at 627,

877
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:37,760
6700. I'm happy about that, too, dude. I'm so happy about that. And like our CPU is unpacking on all

878
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:43,360
threads. Dude, if they have to download to that hard drive. Yeah, they're screwed. They're screwed.

879
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:51,600
Okay, so we're heading to our next protocol. I'm not in David's Good Books right now. I'm kind of

880
01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:55,920
afraid to ask him for our favor, but we might need to be allowed to pick something up a little bit

881
01:21:55,920 --> 01:21:59,920
after six today. It's 530. Yeah, it's actually... Linus is still not here. It's a little ridiculous.

882
01:21:59,920 --> 01:22:03,600
Like, honestly, probably doesn't even matter if we competition, but I just want him to cook.

883
01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:10,320
We did it. You were ready in time. We crossed the finish line. I'm proud of our child.

884
01:22:10,320 --> 01:22:14,000
I'd be happy with this computer. Me, too. Do you think that you have the better system when compared

885
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:19,760
to Linus? It's always hard to tell. We saw a CPU that he was selling. Knowing how he tends to approach

886
01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:23,920
these challenges, I think he'll have strong points that are weak points for us. And I think we'll have

887
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:32,080
strong points that are weak points for him. So, I really don't know how it's going to come out. Our strongest point is GPU. Our weakest point is everything else. But our weakest points aren't

888
01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:36,320
like that weak. Like, the CPU is pretty solid. We were running some stuff. Like, in Cyberpunk,

889
01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:40,400
we had no CPU bound issues, even with the 3080. I guess we'll see how Labs deals with it, because

890
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:45,600
that's going to be the real test. It'll suffer in some areas. I suspect he has a better processor.

891
01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:52,160
I think that'll be our hardest point. Have you guys put any thought into the benchmark you get to

892
01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:56,560
choose? Because we know we're CPU limited, we're going to definitely be avoiding picking those

893
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:00,960
games. We don't want to do no counter strike. That's what we're currently thinking. Probably

894
01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:05,680
Tomb Raider. If I remember correctly, from my days, Tomb Raider scaled really well with CPU and GPU.

895
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:11,040
But, and GPU is the big important part of that. I'm guessing because you are running a 3080,

896
01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:15,680
you want to have your settings cranked. Yes. High resolution. We would love to do ray tracing on

897
01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:18,800
everything. We just want to put that out there right now. It's 2024. You should just have ray

898
01:23:18,800 --> 01:23:22,640
tracing. I don't understand why this is even a conversation. Any amount of time of our lives

899
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:27,360
spent without ray tracing from here on is a waste. So, I believe Tom's hardware said it first.

900
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:31,280
What is life without ray tracing? Yeah, exactly. It's time to hand your system in for testing.

901
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:36,240
All right, here it goes. Oh boy. Don't fail me now.

902
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:45,840
Hey there, brother. Hello. Mr. David. Hi, I can hear you now. Okay, we're going to arrive at our

903
01:23:45,840 --> 01:23:52,320
second last stop for today at six. Your second last stop at six. Well, that's what I was going to

904
01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:57,440
tell you. Is it would certainly be convenient for us to do one more stop today after six.

905
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:06,480
But we don't need to. But we would prefer to do our last stop today in costume, which has a clear

906
01:24:06,480 --> 01:24:15,280
content benefit. And then take a small time penalty tomorrow. Yeah, fine. Sure. All right.

907
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:19,360
That's about the best outcome we could have hoped for, Sammy. Yep. And what are we picking up at

908
01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:25,280
this spot again? A monitor. Sorry, just had a hard time. Hi. We're here to pick up a monitor.

909
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:33,920
Oh, thank you. Hey, sorry, skip through the garage. Oh, sorry. Hi. Thank you. So, I'll just take this.

910
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:40,000
Do you want to give him the cash? Oh, thank you. And then again, like I was saying, the cord is a

911
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,200
little bit finicky. Yeah, no problem. So, like sometimes you'll notice that it'll cut out in

912
01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:47,920
the know. So. We have another one. Yeah. Thank you very much. Have a great day. No worries.

913
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:52,960
Take care. Take care. Take care. I don't think you recognized us. No, I don't think so.

914
01:24:54,960 --> 01:25:00,880
Shoot. Sammy, didn't you say this one had DisplayPort? Yeah, we looked it up. I think it's a

915
01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:06,000
different model. Oh. It doesn't have DisplayPort. This will be interesting. I think what might end

916
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:11,440
up happening is we might have to get a DisplayPort to DVI adapter if we want to run at 120 hertz.

917
01:25:11,440 --> 01:25:16,320
So, we'll have to see how it goes. Shoot. This may have been a miscalculation, this monitor, but

918
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:23,040
that's okay. That's okay. Overall, overall, it's going to be a really good package. We've got a

919
01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:30,720
monitor. Wait, are we at Luke's complex? Holy s***. We are at Luke's building right now

920
01:25:31,440 --> 01:25:37,680
for our last pickup of the day. This is Luke's response here. Hello there. That's it right there.

921
01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:43,280
Oh, great. Thank you. No, I just don't use them. Oh, sure. There you are. As long as someone can

922
01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:49,120
use them, then... Oh, great. Thank you. Okay. I really appreciate that. No worries. All right. Take

923
01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:56,720
care. Yeah. Okay. All right. Thank you. Not so much as a second glance. Some nice little edifier

924
01:25:56,720 --> 01:26:03,760
speakers. 20 bucks. Let's do it. We made it. Our last pickup was at 630. So, you can penalize us

925
01:26:03,840 --> 01:26:08,240
however you see fit. How do you think you did? Your system's basically complete. We had a few

926
01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:14,880
options for configuration. We almost ended up with a 3600, but we ended up with a 4500 Ryzen

927
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:20,800
processor because the speed was almost the same and the price that we were able to get flipping

928
01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:26,160
our 3600 was better because the 4500, nobody knew what the heck it was. We got our hands on a 3070

929
01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:32,160
for what I thought was a pretty good deal. 16 gigs RAM. XMP worked just like that. It did a

930
01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:36,640
BIOS update in order for everything to be hunky-dory, but I think it's a great system for the price.

931
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:42,000
Overall, I still don't know how much we paid for it. Well, we'll price out some used parts and

932
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:46,080
we'll find out for ourselves, but our first inspection so far, we did open it up. We're

933
01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:50,720
actually quite surprised. Don't tell him. Oh, okay. Secret. What's the point of me talking to him?

934
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:54,400
I thought he's supposed to tell me how my system's doing. You should have read the document I sent

935
01:26:54,400 --> 01:26:59,680
to you. I built the gaming PC. We shared a test plan. We got input from everybody on how to best

936
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:03,600
break or sorry, test your system. It's a great gaming system. It's a great gaming system for

937
01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:07,360
gamers. I guess we're going to find out tomorrow. Thanks for watching this video.

938
01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:15,920
It's day four. The systems are done. They're tested, although there is still time for us to tweak

939
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:20,320
them for better performance. Yes, there's still time to tweak them, but the big focus today is

940
01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:25,920
going to be on the setup, which is going to be a big advantage for us except for one small problem.

941
01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:29,680
We're going to have a little less time today. Yes, that's right. They were so late yesterday.

942
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:34,080
We're going to delay them by the equivalent amount of time. You can penalize us however you see fit.

943
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:40,400
For the next hour, these two are going to have to play board games. Oh, no. Like board games.

944
01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:44,080
The real punishment is because Linus didn't read my instructions yesterday. I'm going to steal

945
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:50,400
all the instructions from every game. What do you mean? Read the instructions, please. No. Yeah.

946
01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:53,840
No, I'm not going to say that. You pulled in the parking lot at seven. We were told to be done at

947
01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:58,320
five. You were two hours late. What a joke. This whole thing's a sham. I don't like it when

948
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:02,800
dads argue. You know what? Realistically, we don't even need the time. We got this. Does that mean

949
01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:06,720
we get to go? You're good to go. You're free. Yeah. No punishment. Okay, we're going to go. We've got

950
01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:12,960
to go to the monitor. You've got to start clocking the 1700. Let's get going. I want to use another

951
01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:18,960
charger just to keep this one in good condition. Just the wheels. So, code names. The only

952
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:23,200
clues you're allowed to give is one word at a time. For example, like model, you could be like

953
01:28:23,200 --> 01:28:27,920
train. Sure. This is going to be too easy. Have you seen how well we communicate? I have not.

954
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:35,680
It communicates so well at being late. Whoa. This is the monitor we got. Dang. Thanks, Jawa.

955
01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:42,320
Is that a high-end mechanical key? I'm just trying to taunt them with our mechanical keyboard right

956
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:49,600
now. Sport three. Sport three. One of them has to be cricket. Yep. One of them has to be dance. Yep.

957
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:55,600
And one of them's got to be stadium. Yes. Let's go. I noticed your cable management isn't

958
01:28:55,600 --> 01:29:00,240
particularly nice, so I have a gift for you, which is the Magnetic Cable Management Arts.

959
01:29:01,440 --> 01:29:06,640
LTCstore.com. This is an actually nice kit. There's another layer too. There's stuff below it.

960
01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:14,880
Wow. Observe for two. We'll watch. Yes. And spy. Yes. Yes. Let's go.

961
01:29:15,840 --> 01:29:19,440
I had a little bit of a revelation. I was trying to type in steam and it wasn't

962
01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:23,600
the smoothest experience, so I've opened a keyboard tester.

963
01:29:28,320 --> 01:29:34,080
It's registering like 30% of the keys. I am not happy right now. One of the judges is a keyboard

964
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:40,000
knob, so that's definitely going to come back and bite them. I just tried our first overclock

965
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:44,000
and it crashed when rendering. I'm going to try adjusting the voltage on it

966
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:47,360
and see if that'll help. This is my first time overclocking.

967
01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:53,920
I've never overclocked before. I'm glad this is the news for both of us.

968
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:59,280
So are we done our punishment now? Yep. You're free to go. I've had far worse punishments.

969
01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:03,200
Should have had far worse punishments. Got them. Deal with it, Luke. Oh, I will.

970
01:30:03,200 --> 01:30:07,600
Everything can be ready for the judges at 2pm. 2pm? I thought we had a full day today.

971
01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:10,800
Don't show up at 4pm then, no problem. When are we going to judge and benchmark and stuff?

972
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:15,840
Are we saying until like midnight? No, this is the last day, Linus. Oh, what? You go.

973
01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:21,280
So we need to get the mouse pad and leave a toonie under the guy's mat. Yes. Let's figure out

974
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:26,560
where we want our desk. This is an option. Okay, I think we can just leave it like this.

975
01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:31,760
That's also an option. I like this. Really? With the lamp, when the wood. How much of the space

976
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:36,640
are we allowed to use to help with our aesthetic here? You can't take items from the sets and use

977
01:30:36,640 --> 01:30:41,040
them on your desk, but if you want to put stuff elsewhere around, that's fine. Wait, but they have

978
01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:45,440
the cute corner. That's not fair. Oh, we didn't even think about using that. Thanks, Linus. Yeah,

979
01:30:45,440 --> 01:30:50,000
the cute corner's off limits. Okay, if we can't use the cute corner, we should just try to use

980
01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:53,840
that corner. I just don't think we should be able to use anything to be honest. It should be like

981
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:58,800
this, the desk, right here. What kind of food is on this side panel, but I'm going to remove all of it.

982
01:30:58,800 --> 01:31:02,640
I'm in a double checker budget. Don't we have to figure out an adapter?

983
01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:07,280
Sammy, didn't you say this one had DisplayPort? We might have to get a DisplayPort to DVI

984
01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:11,680
adapter if we want to run at 120 Hertz, so we'll have to see how it goes. I'm going to plug it in

985
01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:18,480
and find out for sure. We have $30. $30 for me. I'm thinking we hit up a mini soap because it's

986
01:31:18,480 --> 01:31:23,280
actually kind of closed. This one's a Guilford. Also, I think if we just got a Guilford straight

987
01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:27,840
up. Yeah, there's a bunch of dollar stores there and stuff. Okay. How we doing? We're holding at this

988
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:33,360
now, 3.65. I mean, it's a lot better than it was. It's better than three and it hasn't crashed yet.

989
01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:40,560
Kind of expecting more, but it's a good idea to find a stable, good place. You will also get a

990
01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:47,040
care package of magnetic cable management arches from LTTstore.com. Very nice, so we can use that to

991
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:51,760
make sure everything looks really clean. Aesthetically, do you want it facing forward? Facing forward

992
01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:56,960
probably. All right, cool. Tilt this a little bit so that you can see. Absolutely, because we've got

993
01:31:56,960 --> 01:32:04,080
this expansive desk. See, these guys are all sign language-y whispering. We've got confidence.

994
01:32:04,080 --> 01:32:09,280
That's why we talk out loud about how freaking awesome our setup is. We're just bored because

995
01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:15,760
we're already done. Uh-huh, sure. I have a question for both teams. Did you read the judging rubric?

996
01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:21,040
Nope, nope. By the time he sent it to us, we already had everything procured, so it's not like we could.

997
01:32:21,040 --> 01:32:25,280
Well, let me help both teams out by telling you how you will be judged by the judges. So there's

998
01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:31,360
going to be four categories. There is aesthetics worth 25 points. There is sound worth 10 points,

999
01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:37,280
and that's partly the PC noise, but also how good the audio will be. There is stratagem or

1000
01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:41,680
creativity, as I like to call, worth 25 points. So judging how creative is the setup, how neat are

1001
01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:46,640
the solutions, and then effectiveness for 40 points. So how much would you like to use a setup?

1002
01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:52,400
And that's combined into a sweeping score, and that's scoring metric I like to call the asses score.

1003
01:32:52,480 --> 01:32:56,960
The asses score? Yeah, aesthetics, sounds, stratagem, effectiveness, and then a sweeping score.

1004
01:32:58,800 --> 01:33:03,520
I might have these for free. I have a bunch of people I'm talking to right now. This is the one that

1005
01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:10,400
I think it's... These were LG speakers. I assumed it would work. I'm on a computer. I saw a picture

1006
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:15,040
on the back. That's speaker wire, I think. The person messaged me. By the looks of your profile,

1007
01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:20,800
you seem like a funny guy, and I appreciate your joke offer. But honestly, these are kind of

1008
01:33:20,800 --> 01:33:26,000
muffled and junky speakers. Not anything close to what I thought when I got them. If you want them,

1009
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,640
you can have it for free, but then no refunds. They're not taking my two dollars and 17 cents

1010
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:36,160
very seriously. Okay, so we are going to go pick up some speakers, but as we've been driving,

1011
01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:41,360
my phone's been popping off with messages, so we might be able to pick up a keyboard while we're

1012
01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:45,600
out as well. There's a few free keyboards around. We might have an option. Do you want to grab the

1013
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:51,120
peripherals? You want for a $10 keyboard, it's not the worst. Oh yeah, it just needs a little bit

1014
01:33:51,120 --> 01:33:55,120
of cleanup, and then it's good to go. Honestly, it's not even that bad. It's not that bad. There are

1015
01:33:55,120 --> 01:33:59,280
no weird gross fingernails in there. Yeah, maybe we focus on other priorities. All right, so we're

1016
01:33:59,280 --> 01:34:02,480
just going to Guildford now, and I guess this is kind of everything in it. We're going to set

1017
01:34:02,480 --> 01:34:06,800
things up, right? Do you want to plug everything in and make sure it works first? It wouldn't be a

1018
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:12,400
bad idea. Yes. Yeah, so here we go. Just confirming Labs didn't break our computer real quick here.

1019
01:34:12,480 --> 01:34:18,640
Let me... Oh yeah, good call. We could still replace this if we need to. Okay, the whole keyboard

1020
01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:23,200
works, and mouse too. This is actually the first time we've fired up the mouse. It probably won't

1021
01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:28,800
track well on that, so... No, it's actually doing okay. Okay, great. I did a bit of a goof. I thought

1022
01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:34,320
those speakers looked like computer speakers. Those are home theater speakers. They have speaker wire

1023
01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:40,400
connections, but that guy was awesome. Gave me just a bunch of extra stuff for free. One of those

1024
01:34:40,400 --> 01:34:45,840
things is this. He said it's just like some piece of junk he got off AliExpress. He said it barely

1025
01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:52,160
works and massively overheats, but I will let you know there's left and right audio inputs. So with

1026
01:34:52,160 --> 01:35:00,320
a Y adapter, we can run these speakers. Oh my god. We're on our way to a dollar store slash cool

1027
01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:05,200
kitschy stuff store to pick up some things to beautify our setup a little bit. We've got a $30

1028
01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:12,320
budget basically to get a mouse pad and beautification. Question for you, Sammy. Yes. Seeing how much of the

1029
01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:19,120
score is audio, do we need a mic? We can try to find something at Miniso. And then our worst case

1030
01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:23,840
scenario, if we can't get a mouse pad for a decent price, is we just drive to that place and leave

1031
01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:28,480
it to any end of the guy's map? Yep. Hopefully he still has it out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Oh my

1032
01:35:28,480 --> 01:35:32,560
god. This is not that cheap though, dude. But this is the branded stuff. This is officially licensed,

1033
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:38,000
so it's more expensive. I see. Care Bears Battery Bank. Man, that $30 is not going to go very far,

1034
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:42,240
dude. Maybe there's a dollar store here. There is a dollar store here. We'll see what budget we have.

1035
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:46,480
But I think dollars or candies can be pretty good. You're not wrong. You're not wrong. One thing I

1036
01:35:46,480 --> 01:35:52,080
was a little concerned about was that strip. Yeah, it's like, yep, we're talking about the same thing.

1037
01:35:52,080 --> 01:35:56,400
Making it some kind of like sticker. What do you think of just like whatever this is? Like a piece

1038
01:35:56,400 --> 01:36:00,400
of ribbon or something across the front there. But then this is a little wide. Okay, you want to

1039
01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:04,400
just go with the silver or the off? Yeah, we'll go with the silver. That's a cute little basket.

1040
01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:10,640
Yeah, for $1.50, not bad. This fits. You don't like that, almost. Oh, $1.75. Oh, that matches our chair

1041
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:14,320
too. Yeah. Okay, we'll go with this. That's the one. Is that our candy dish or is that something

1042
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:20,080
else? That's our candy dish. Oh yeah, I was going to look up USB microphone. It's $10 for a blue

1043
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:26,160
snowball ice. But we have an hour and it's a coquitlam. That's close to here. Okay. Here's a black

1044
01:36:27,040 --> 01:36:33,120
blue snowball for $20. I mean, how badly do you think we need a mic? It was like a quarter of the

1045
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:37,920
score for audio. You're right. Yeah. And like we can, no, no, because we can still get this. Yeah,

1046
01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:42,640
we can still get this and some candy and a microphone. Maybe. It's hard mince for a dollar.

1047
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:49,200
Wait, did you just say hard mince? Yeah. Okay, boomer. Maybe we do like these. I'm like, hey,

1048
01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:54,560
your previous candy was for boomers. She goes, here, let me improve that with Werther's Originals.

1049
01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:59,760
Literally my grandfather. My grandfather is the only person I've ever seen eat a Werther's

1050
01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:05,040
Original. Jolly ranchers are a good bet. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. $10 blue ice. Just responded to me.

1051
01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:12,400
Right now. What is your ETA? Holy crap. $10. Anytime is fine. Just let me know before you come.

1052
01:37:12,400 --> 01:37:17,040
Okay, we sent the money. Money sent. I sent you my money. Please respond. Did you ask him if it's

1053
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:22,320
fully functional? I mean, I didn't really read the listing. Working great. Used like new. Okay, great.

1054
01:37:22,320 --> 01:37:26,720
Please hold. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got you. Hey, where was the address for the mouse pad? Oh,

1055
01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:32,960
she left. I'm on my own now. Well, it was nice having a teammate while it lasted. Super lucky.

1056
01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:39,040
I guess she just wanted to get rid of them, but we got a keyboard and headphones. I don't know

1057
01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:49,680
if any of it works. There was no opportunity to try it. So. Got some macros. And guess what we

1058
01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:57,040
still have left? $2 and same. Did you just like rob someone? The person with all the speakers,

1059
01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:02,880
that's the person who messaged me and was like, I looked at your profile. You seem like a funny guy.

1060
01:38:02,880 --> 01:38:07,440
Ended up giving me all of this stuff. This stuff, bit of a problem. He also gave me this thing. I

1061
01:38:07,440 --> 01:38:14,720
don't know if we can use this. Forget about that. But he gave me this. Oh, it's got an ox. We can

1062
01:38:14,720 --> 01:38:19,840
plug it into the computer with this. He solved the problem without me even bringing off that it

1063
01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:25,440
was a problem. We could mount it like a nice spot under the desk here. Yeah, the keyboard. What's

1064
01:38:25,440 --> 01:38:31,520
this story? Some lady was just trying to get rid of stuff. These were a thing when I was a teenager.

1065
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:34,560
I don't know if it's going to work. What are you doing? What's your story? What's going on? Okay,

1066
01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:39,920
so I have some before and after pictures. This was just with a CPU overclock on Shadow the Tomb

1067
01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:44,080
Raider. Okay, 1080p with everything on ultra, including Ray Tray shadows. Did a little bit of

1068
01:38:44,080 --> 01:38:48,560
GPU overclocking. It's not much, but anything higher I went, we started thermal throttling,

1069
01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:51,920
which then means we were getting lower. Let's not bother with that. 4fps when you're out of

1070
01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:56,560
less than 100. Yeah, it's like 5%. Let's make sure I don't have to keep running out. So let's test

1071
01:38:56,560 --> 01:39:03,920
this really quick. The keyboard? Yeah, sure. I don't know if any of this is going to work. Literally everything that I have right now. I have headphones. I have a new keyboard. This is nasty. It's not new.

1072
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:11,440
Lights, lights, lights. Okay, there you go. Okay, but wait, we need to see. No pad. Oh, that's

1073
01:39:11,440 --> 01:39:18,880
almost like my old dream keyboard. Cool. We have a functional keyboard. Headphones. It has a

1074
01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:28,080
mic. I didn't even think about that. Play some noise. Play some noise. We got working headphones.

1075
01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:37,840
Nice. Crank them. Crank them, brother. That's what zero dollars sounds like. Let's go.

1076
01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:43,920
Thank you. Great. Thank you so much. Oh, we have 12 dollars. Yes. With tax, we have 10 bucks,

1077
01:39:43,920 --> 01:39:48,400
essentially. So we go buy something cute. Do they have a figure for 10 bucks? Wait,

1078
01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:51,120
we don't have any stationery to put our little sign out.

1079
01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:59,600
Okay. Nicole goes by Pengu. Pandering. How much is it? $4.99. We have five more dollars. Okay. So

1080
01:39:59,600 --> 01:40:04,320
this we're going to leave our little notes on, like guide to fully appreciating our system or

1081
01:40:04,400 --> 01:40:12,800
whatever. Is this $2.99? Yeah. If we get this penguin. Okay. We're gonna gamble on a blind box

1082
01:40:12,800 --> 01:40:19,040
that might have a blue penguin in it. Okay, which one? This one has less space. This one has ears

1083
01:40:19,040 --> 01:40:22,240
and this one's taller and this one's taller. We want to kind of shake you on because this one's

1084
01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:26,080
a little lower or one that has like more space on the side. So if you shake it like... Well,

1085
01:40:26,080 --> 01:40:32,480
that one has no space on the side. No. Try this one. Oh, this one is good. Okay. Do we want this

1086
01:40:32,480 --> 01:40:37,760
one? I think. Okay. We're going for it. We'll take these items, please. Oh, no. Thank you.

1087
01:40:40,480 --> 01:40:46,080
Okay. I will be a member. Thank you. Let's go get our microphone. I sent them an ETA already.

1088
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:49,840
The reason why we bought this is because we saw a little penguin in here that we really want.

1089
01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:55,600
Okay. Three, two, one. So you can't see through the bag. You pull it open. Oh my god, we got the

1090
01:40:56,320 --> 01:41:04,720
penguin. We got the penguin. We're in a win. Oh my god. For $3. And all you had to do was sacrifice

1091
01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,040
your personal information to the mini-sew. Yes.

1092
01:41:14,080 --> 01:41:20,320
Great. Thank you. All right. Take care. And it works? Okay. Great. Thank you so much.

1093
01:41:21,200 --> 01:41:26,480
Do we have a mouse pad address? Yeah, I have. Oh, you got it? Yeah. Based on the current timing,

1094
01:41:26,480 --> 01:41:30,960
we are going to arrive back to the office with about five to 10 minutes to cable manage and for

1095
01:41:30,960 --> 01:41:36,640
Sammy to accent that front piece and like, it's going to be tight. And if Buddy didn't leave the

1096
01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:41,680
mouse pad out, we are not going to have a mouse pad, which is going to cost us big time. I'm a

1097
01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:47,200
touch worried that we've put absolutely zero tuning into our system. I think our best bet for

1098
01:41:47,200 --> 01:41:53,200
that is to kind of spin it as a win. So like as part of our system presentation, we talk about

1099
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:58,560
how like the system's not just for, you know, extreme gaming or whatever. It's stable enough

1100
01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:05,360
for anything you'd need to do explicitly, not overclocked in any way. Rock solid stable,

1101
01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:11,120
like that kind of thing. Okay. Okay. Oh, the guy replied. Oh, so sorry. I forgot to leave it outside.

1102
01:42:11,120 --> 01:42:18,160
Wait, we're not going to have this tomorrow. Okay. Oh, we have $5 left. I should have confirmed

1103
01:42:18,160 --> 01:42:22,800
with him. Okay. There's got to be a Canada computers or a memory express somewhere around here as well.

1104
01:42:22,800 --> 01:42:29,680
Memory Express Langley. Are we going to make it in time? We can make it calling memory express Langley.

1105
01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:35,680
This location is open Monday through Friday. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Long story.

1106
01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:40,560
No time to tell it. I need the cheapest mouse pad possible. What is your cheapest mouse pad that

1107
01:42:40,560 --> 01:42:47,680
you have in stock? I'm talking like five bucks. Can you do five bucks, including tax? Like,

1108
01:42:47,680 --> 01:42:56,000
can I give you like a $5 bill? Yeah, it should work out. Yeah. Thank you so much. I'll be there in

1109
01:42:56,000 --> 01:43:06,240
five minutes. Yes. Hi, look at that. Here's $5. Can I get a receipt? Do you have something for

1110
01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:14,640
like $7? 15. Okay. I think it's going to be this then. It doesn't really have a rubber backing.

1111
01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:18,400
Here's what we're going to do, Sammy. The first thing we do when we get back, we plug in a glue gun

1112
01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:23,440
and we glue it down to the table so that they can't tell exactly how cheap it is. No, we glue

1113
01:43:23,440 --> 01:43:28,240
this and then it'll be a rubber thing. Oh, that'll work. Thank you. Have a good day. Thank you so

1114
01:43:28,240 --> 01:43:33,600
much. Take care. Not going to lie. This is barely a mouse pad. This is a piece of foam that you

1115
01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:38,720
can put a mouse on, but we'll take it. How I'm imagining this is I could almost see either the

1116
01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:44,160
computer on the right outside or underneath on the inside because if it's underneath on the inside,

1117
01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:47,440
we will need to drill another hole. If it's on the outside, we don't need to because we could

1118
01:43:47,440 --> 01:43:51,280
theoretically just have everything run up along the back. I feel like if it's on the desk, it's

1119
01:43:51,280 --> 01:43:56,720
going to make it not very even, like to the eyes. I like the idea of the speakers in no tower. I

1120
01:43:56,720 --> 01:44:01,600
think it's pretty cool. I'm just wondering about the amp. I think we still drill. We can run these

1121
01:44:01,600 --> 01:44:07,760
speaker wires directly off the back. Nice and neatly. They can come up and in this way and it

1122
01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:12,800
can be mounted there. Something like that. Are you going to get a drill? Yeah, right now. All right,

1123
01:44:12,800 --> 01:44:17,520
I'm going to go try to get a wheel. Is there anything else in here? Nope. Hey, get out of here.

1124
01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:21,600
Get out of here. I'm not looking. I'm not looking. It's okay. I'm looking at your own s***. Look at

1125
01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:27,520
your own s***. As we were driving up today, I spotted two chairs in the wild. I don't think I want

1126
01:44:27,520 --> 01:44:33,280
the chairs. The chairs are a little gnarly, but the wheels. I was easier than I expected.

1127
01:44:34,720 --> 01:44:37,280
I don't know if it's like compatible or anything. Well, there's always tape.

1128
01:44:41,280 --> 01:44:41,920
No way.

1129
01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:53,120
Solved. That is sick. Squiggly is the way to go.

1130
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:04,320
I got two just in case this occurs to me. I never thought to take a close look at this

1131
01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:12,320
cable. So it was a little flaky. What? Buddy, let's try this other one. Might have gotten bamboozled.

1132
01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:21,040
Okay. Well, that sure is s***, isn't it? Well, that is the flakiness of the cable revealed. Come on.

1133
01:45:21,920 --> 01:45:30,800
Come on. What? You know what I think it is? This adapter doesn't support that. Do you have another

1134
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:36,320
adapter? Maybe. Okay. Do the cable management first? Okay. I'm on it. All right. I'm going to get

1135
01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:40,320
everything starting to wire before we mount this. Wiring it while it's mounted might be difficult,

1136
01:45:40,320 --> 01:45:49,360
but I don't know. We don't have much time though. We've got to move real fast. Technically, I think we have 12 minutes. Oh my God, really? I am not going to get this perfect. I'm getting stuff

1137
01:45:49,360 --> 01:45:56,320
off, but there's things here that I believe have lived here for a while. Can you give me a time

1138
01:45:56,320 --> 01:46:02,720
check? 150. Yeah, we officially only have 10 minutes. Okay, magnetic cable management time.

1139
01:46:07,440 --> 01:46:12,640
Not game banter. How are you guys doing for time? Never better. I'm okay with adding some time if

1140
01:46:12,640 --> 01:46:18,080
you want. Never better. Okay. I may have to swap out a defective cable, but that's my only concern.

1141
01:46:19,360 --> 01:46:25,440
And it comes with sticks. I don't know. I feel like off to the side is a little bit

1142
01:46:25,440 --> 01:46:29,360
better. I don't know if it's exactly centered. Okay. But it's pretty. I'm going with it then.

1143
01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:36,960
Okay. That is wired in. And then we can plug headphones in up here. Yeah. I think we're okay.

1144
01:46:36,960 --> 01:46:40,960
Just keep cable managing. You've got three minutes and I'm going to keep cleaning. This isn't

1145
01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:45,040
movie magic. This isn't reality TV show magic. We're actually just running out of time.

1146
01:46:45,280 --> 01:46:52,320
It doesn't look very nice, but it either looks nice or it works. Does it feel okay? It's a little

1147
01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:58,480
lumpy. Oh, it is. Okay. Do more glue. Where's all my adapters be out here? If you can go that way,

1148
01:46:58,480 --> 01:47:03,200
that's better. I can go through the front though if it needs to. That is plugged in. That's plugged

1149
01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:10,880
in. It works. 25 seconds. Lint roller. Are you able to make the mouse pad a little bit less

1150
01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:15,600
horrible first? It moves around too much. And it'll pencil down exactly how you leave it in 15

1151
01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:21,520
seconds. I don't have time to fix the glue. I may not have a working computer in 15 seconds.

1152
01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:27,200
We're going to just slide against the wall. Five. Can everybody get like one more minute? Three,

1153
01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:36,240
two, one. Is the screen on? This. Okay. Everyone pencils down. You guys need another minute, huh?

1154
01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:40,240
They can have another minute. They don't need another minute. Nope, we don't. Yeah, it's done.

1155
01:47:40,240 --> 01:47:45,520
Way to go, everybody. You did it. I think we did great. Look at the setup. Yeah,

1156
01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:49,840
I think we did pretty good. It was better than I expected. I don't know if I've ever been this

1157
01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:55,360
sweaty at the end of the Scrapyard Wars. I think we overestimated how much time we had

1158
01:47:55,360 --> 01:47:59,360
to do the setup itself. But I'm happy with it. It looks good. But it looks good.

1159
01:48:00,320 --> 01:48:14,000
We are here in the final stretch of Scrapyard Wars, and we have our three experts. Nicholas

1160
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:19,280
Plouffe, our displaying keyboard expert. Nicole Yu, our aesthetics expert. And Riley.

1161
01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:25,760
Yeah, that's regular guy. Wait, can I be Vibes? Riley Murdock. Vibes. Yeah. You don't know which

1162
01:48:25,760 --> 01:48:30,320
system is which, right? No. Why don't we start over here? Oh, this is it. This is it. I thought

1163
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:34,800
this was something somebody left here by accident. I'm really impressed that they have a chair this

1164
01:48:34,800 --> 01:48:43,200
time around. Not bad. Not bad. Oh, okay. This is a short person friendly. I like that. The keyboard.

1165
01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:51,200
Yikes. Is that like orange dried up goop? Yum. Is this bribery? Absolutely. How do we split that

1166
01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:57,280
three ways? We could give maybe a small slurpee. They got a 3080 in here. Oh, wow. Who did they

1167
01:48:57,280 --> 01:49:02,880
steal this from? Okay, these headphones are also orange crusty. What? Where is this coming from?

1168
01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:13,200
Extra flavor. Yay, there it is. That's not bad. Odd stains on the chair. I'll sit down anyway.

1169
01:49:13,200 --> 01:49:17,200
Honestly, I'm pretty impressed by the speakers. One thing that I don't think Nicole touched on is

1170
01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:22,160
looks like they got a DAC here. Hi-Fi stereo audio amplifier. Okay. It's just an amp. It's not a

1171
01:49:22,160 --> 01:49:27,360
DAC. Oh, it's just an amp still though to drive these massive bookshelf speakers. I don't even

1172
01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:31,040
know if you can call them bookshelf at this point. Headphones aren't amazing, but they're not bad.

1173
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:35,920
And they got a mic. You know, it's not the best monitor they've ever used. But for the price

1174
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:40,320
point that they got to, that's not bad. They really hear the fans around about it. They're spinning up.

1175
01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:46,800
That's why they've got the speakers and the headphones. And I love the Zooming mouse pad. They

1176
01:49:46,800 --> 01:49:52,400
have a mouse pad. Yeah. Wow. That orange crusty definitely is high fidelity up close. It's got

1177
01:49:52,400 --> 01:49:57,040
some crust on it. Okay. Well, this is very smooth, obviously. I mean, like, you've got a 3080,

1178
01:49:57,040 --> 01:50:04,560
144 Hertz screen. One thing that's irritating to me as someone whose desk is on the set where we film

1179
01:50:04,560 --> 01:50:12,720
is a loud PC. I cannot abide a loud PC. And this one is very loud. It's all red all the time.

1180
01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:18,240
Yes. I would have liked something a little something a little bit more. They're also not

1181
01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:22,560
showing it off at all. They just shoved it in a corner. If you're putting this forward to be judged,

1182
01:50:23,280 --> 01:50:28,080
why are you hiding in a corner? This is a big desk. You could you could easily put that up here.

1183
01:50:28,080 --> 01:50:35,360
So I mean, minus some points for shame on their part. Overall vibes. I mean, for $800 for this

1184
01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:39,600
complete setup, that's not bad at all. Don't give your scores yet. Yeah, it's time to go look at the

1185
01:50:39,600 --> 01:50:46,480
other system. Immediately. Wow. This looks way better to me. It's so comfortable. You've got

1186
01:50:46,480 --> 01:50:51,520
some personal effects. Look at that. Look at that little penguin. It's so happy to see me. They're

1187
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:58,480
showing off their system. It's nice and clean. There's no sign of any orange crusty anywhere.

1188
01:50:58,480 --> 01:51:05,680
You know, there are even more personal effects. Oh, that's so cute. There's candy. See, this is

1189
01:51:05,680 --> 01:51:12,480
a station I would be happy to sit at and use. Let's see how it feels. So right off the bat,

1190
01:51:12,480 --> 01:51:19,680
the monitor is much less impressive, but it's cute. I don't understand what's going on with

1191
01:51:19,680 --> 01:51:24,720
this mouse pad. There has to be some kind of crusty. There's okay. One second.

1192
01:51:26,880 --> 01:51:34,480
That's something. Blue crusty. The elusive blue. Very interesting. I guess that does provide

1193
01:51:35,200 --> 01:51:43,840
grip. Mouse is very fancy. And then there's a nice blue microphone with a cute little bow. Very nice.

1194
01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:49,360
Quiet. Knocked to a fans. One LTT edition modern platform. Runs Windows 11. Oh,

1195
01:51:49,360 --> 01:51:54,640
I didn't even think about that one. Keyboard is nicer. It's still mechanical, but it feels better

1196
01:51:54,640 --> 01:52:01,360
newer. Feels pretty good. It's definitely, I'm guessing, 60 Hertz. Also 1080p. Okay, that's fine.

1197
01:52:01,360 --> 01:52:07,120
They're on a budget. Edifier speakers. They're much smaller than the huge bookshelf towers that

1198
01:52:07,120 --> 01:52:20,880
were over there. They also mentioned zero overclocking for gaming every day. So it's going to be nice

1199
01:52:20,880 --> 01:52:25,520
and stable, allegedly. Well, the bribes are really getting you. Yeah. Oh, I'm such a sucker for candy.

1200
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:29,840
The frame rate is a cable issue, but this monitor's capable of higher refresh rates.

1201
01:52:30,560 --> 01:52:35,280
So the refresh rate issue was really like, we're speeding to the end of the finish line

1202
01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:40,080
only to trip. Kind of. Oh, I'm so torn. I hate that this is stuck at 60. I think it's the

1203
01:52:40,080 --> 01:52:47,760
better computer, but I think ultimately a way worse monitor. We got a DP 1.4 AK thing going into

1204
01:52:47,760 --> 01:52:52,160
a dongle to DVI. That's not their fault. That's not their fault. What do you mean it's not their

1205
01:52:52,160 --> 01:52:55,520
fault? That's something they had to think about when they were. They should have thought about it.

1206
01:52:55,520 --> 01:53:00,480
No free lunches here. So I had some immediate thoughts upon coming over here. The vibe is

1207
01:53:00,480 --> 01:53:05,120
immediately more welcoming just because of the high contrast between the dark peripherals and the

1208
01:53:05,120 --> 01:53:09,920
PCs and stuff and the lighter desk. Over there, we got a darker desk and dark peripherals. It just

1209
01:53:09,920 --> 01:53:14,560
kind of looks like, I think the word is dink. Is there no headset? There was no headset on this one.

1210
01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:18,000
If anything, I would expect that one to not have had phones instead of this one. This one looks

1211
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:22,800
like you've taken the how it appears to other people into account. I don't know who I represent

1212
01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:29,280
when I say that 60 FPS is like just fine for me in most things. Oh, oh, oh, oh.

1213
01:53:30,160 --> 01:53:37,200
This is, yeah, yeah, I can tell that it's 60. Nice. Boomer scored. See, and I think I'm already

1214
01:53:37,200 --> 01:53:41,760
getting used to the 60. And this is the thing. Have you ever heard the term comparison is the

1215
01:53:41,760 --> 01:53:48,000
thief of joy? That's what this is all about. And they scored on us. God damn it. It's not screaming.

1216
01:53:48,320 --> 01:53:54,800
Oh yeah, I can't even hear it at all. It's not making any sound. Who's this guy? What's his name?

1217
01:53:54,800 --> 01:53:58,640
It's friend. It's funny. You know, I wouldn't guess that something like that would work on me,

1218
01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:03,520
but it does. I like that. I like that he's there. I don't like the ribbon though. Did they do this

1219
01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:08,400
to cover? Oh, okay, you're disassembling. Well, I didn't know I would be disassembling. I mean,

1220
01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:13,520
that's shoddy workmanship. Wait, that's the same. That's a blue glue. That's a blue crusty. The

1221
01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:20,640
rabbit hole goes deeper. What's up guys? Hey, if you want to see the whole uncut, uncensored version

1222
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:26,160
of us judging these systems, head on over to Floatplane. What happens on Floatplane stays there.

1223
01:54:26,160 --> 01:54:30,240
All right, see you later. Before we get to the judge's score, I want to announce

1224
01:54:30,240 --> 01:54:34,480
what settings the benchmarks will be run at for the teams. Okay. For red ever redemption,

1225
01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:42,480
medium. Okay. For cyberpunk, medium no ray tracing. Oh, however, if you had read the benchmark

1226
01:54:43,440 --> 01:54:47,120
document, you would know that you get to pick a benchmark and every single setting at which it

1227
01:54:47,120 --> 01:54:53,520
runs at. We're going to pick shadow of the Tomb Raider. What? It's way better. I tested both.

1228
01:54:53,520 --> 01:54:58,960
I promise you it's better. And have you picked your benchmark? Do you even know what the choices

1229
01:54:58,960 --> 01:55:06,480
are? No. You can pick from the list. We'll take F123 low. Okay. The judges have conferred and

1230
01:55:06,480 --> 01:55:12,640
it's time for their scores in the category of aesthetics. This one over here is nice, lots of

1231
01:55:12,640 --> 01:55:21,280
room, but it looks a little old 17 out of 25. This setup gives me sketchy and hidden in a basement

1232
01:55:21,280 --> 01:55:26,880
where things that shouldn't happen are happening. Oh. So I give this a 15. What kind of den is it

1233
01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:32,640
called? Goon cave? Yeah, I'm a goon cave. I largely agree with Nicole on this one. It doesn't seem

1234
01:55:32,640 --> 01:55:38,320
right. I'm giving it a 10. The next category is sound. This system had bigger speakers. I'm not

1235
01:55:38,320 --> 01:55:43,040
saying they're better, but they're bigger and it had an amp. I'm giving this one also headphones,

1236
01:55:43,040 --> 01:55:49,440
a 10. While it had both headphones and speakers, the headphones were so crusty that I didn't want

1237
01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:56,960
to put them on. I forgot to clean those. I gave four each for having both. They both work, so a

1238
01:55:56,960 --> 01:56:02,240
total of eight. I also appreciate that this one had speakers and headphones, but as Nicole said,

1239
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:08,960
they're kind of crusty. I'm giving this one an eight. Next category, stratagem or also known as

1240
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:14,880
creativity. Total creativity. I think it's not bad. I'm going to give it an 18 out of 25. I actually

1241
01:56:14,880 --> 01:56:20,640
think that they were incredibly creative with what they've done here. They tried so hard to hide

1242
01:56:20,640 --> 01:56:26,240
every sketchy part of the system. Even with the tempered glass panel that was pushed up against

1243
01:56:26,240 --> 01:56:32,560
the desk. It was very creative. It's full of problem solving. I'd give this actually a full 25.

1244
01:56:36,400 --> 01:56:41,120
Very good. Despite the aesthetic being concerning, the strategy here is clear. They wanted high

1245
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:45,680
frame rate and they achieved it, I think, so I'm giving it a 23. They only get frame rates that

1246
01:56:45,680 --> 01:56:50,000
are so high with that CPU. It's pretty good actually. Well, and the monitor is capable of it.

1247
01:56:50,960 --> 01:56:59,680
It actually is capable. We wouldn't know. The last category is the effectiveness of the system.

1248
01:56:59,680 --> 01:57:05,680
How much would you like to use this setup? I'm very torn. I don't like most of the peripherals.

1249
01:57:05,680 --> 01:57:11,440
I do love the monitor. I'm going to give it a 30. As much as it's creepy and kind of sketchy,

1250
01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:17,920
kind of crusty, gross, it's very usable. It performs well. I give this a 30. If I'm thinking

1251
01:57:17,920 --> 01:57:22,720
about this as something I'm going to be coming and sitting repeatedly at, it's not very inviting,

1252
01:57:22,720 --> 01:57:28,640
but it's not horrible. I'm giving it a 20 out of 40. I will tabulate these scores,

1253
01:57:28,640 --> 01:57:32,880
but it is time to move on to system number two. It's much prettier and more inviting,

1254
01:57:32,880 --> 01:57:38,400
so I'm going to give it a 25. It gets full points. I really liked the whole thing. Super comfy.

1255
01:57:38,400 --> 01:57:43,120
Brought me joy. The only thing was the mouse pad that kind of got me. I'd give this a 23.

1256
01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:49,040
I'm giving it a 20. I like the contrast, the light desk, dark peripherals it's inviting,

1257
01:57:49,040 --> 01:57:53,280
but there's also some weird stuff going on there. Not having a pair of headphones and

1258
01:57:53,280 --> 01:57:57,520
being stuck with desktop mic and speakers, I'm giving it more like a seven if the other was

1259
01:57:57,520 --> 01:58:04,480
a full 10. I'd actually give this a six because while they weren't as gross, they didn't really

1260
01:58:04,480 --> 01:58:09,120
blow me out of the water. I like headphones a bit more than speakers, so I'm going to give this one

1261
01:58:09,120 --> 01:58:16,160
a seven. Next category is stratagem. They tried real hard, I think overall. They tried real hard.

1262
01:58:16,160 --> 01:58:22,000
Hey, hey, hey. I do love candy. I love candy. In terms of creativity, I genuinely like it.

1263
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:28,000
Without the bribe, I'd still give it a 23. I was very impressed, but the fact that both the mouse

1264
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:32,880
pad and the monitor were kind of jank, I'd give this a 23. I forgot what I gave this one, but I

1265
01:58:32,880 --> 01:58:37,200
wanted to give them the same score because they went for different things, but they both kind of

1266
01:58:37,200 --> 01:58:43,280
achieved what they were going for. 23, 23 and me. And the last category is effectiveness. I'm

1267
01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:48,560
incredibly torn. I really prefer that monitor, but the peripherals on this one in terms of mouse and

1268
01:58:48,560 --> 01:58:55,200
keyboard and just overall smoothness of using the computer was a lot better, so I'm going to give it

1269
01:58:55,200 --> 01:59:00,720
a 35. Just the fact that sitting at the station, it doesn't make me not want to touch anything

1270
01:59:00,800 --> 01:59:07,440
and to shy away. It brings me comfort and joy. This gets a 35. I definitely wanted to use this one

1271
01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:13,120
a lot more, and despite the lower frame rate, the overpowered hardware made things smooth,

1272
01:59:13,120 --> 01:59:17,600
so this is a 30 for me. You guys better help you win some benchmarks. Yeah. We're going to.

1273
01:59:17,600 --> 01:59:22,080
That concludes the judging. Thank you, expert judges. You may now leave. Please, please leave.

1274
01:59:22,080 --> 01:59:26,640
Please leave. I'm going to tabulate the score, and while I do that, the contestants are going to

1275
01:59:26,640 --> 01:59:31,920
take a look at each other's systems. Your chair is actually. This is horrendous. I think there

1276
01:59:31,920 --> 01:59:36,320
might be more schmoo on your setup. I think they just saw the bright desk compared to darker

1277
01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:40,880
peripherals and thought it was nicer. I think yours is actually more goon cavey than ours is.

1278
01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:46,080
No. Like this armrest on this chair is gross. It moves. That's a sound. Ours doesn't move great.

1279
01:59:47,120 --> 01:59:51,440
You pulled your wheel off of a dumpster chair. You know, I didn't have time to tune the sub.

1280
01:59:51,760 --> 01:59:58,480
Yeah, I wish I had tuned that first. What is that? Is that a 3060 or 3070?

1281
01:59:58,480 --> 02:00:06,960
3070. That's the 3070 from Java. Yeah, so that was my original idea. This is a Ryzen 5 4500.

1282
02:00:06,960 --> 02:00:13,680
Nice. We've got 16 gigs of 3200 RAM. We did manage to enable XMP. It like worked immediately.

1283
02:00:13,680 --> 02:00:19,280
3,600 number. So 3,600 is a big advantage for CPU performance for us here. You had no time to

1284
02:00:19,280 --> 02:00:22,320
overclock though, right? I had no time to overclock. Because we cranked a bunch more

1285
02:00:22,320 --> 02:00:26,400
performance out of the 1,700. Yeah, but your Zen 1. How many cores does this one again? It's six.

1286
02:00:26,400 --> 02:00:31,040
But they're fast. They're much faster and we have faster RAM. Let's see your goon cave setup.

1287
02:00:31,040 --> 02:00:35,920
Yeah. Hell yeah. Welcome to the dungeon. Oh, this front fan is barely spinning. Yes. I wonder if

1288
02:00:35,920 --> 02:00:41,280
your GPU is just like starving. It's probably starving. This case has literally no front

1289
02:00:41,280 --> 02:00:45,200
intake. Yes. We were trying to get more fans and stuff kind of ran out of time. This was a very

1290
02:00:45,200 --> 02:00:50,320
short scrap drive worse. We also had lots of fans. Yeah. And lots of cases. Yeah. We have headphones.

1291
02:00:50,320 --> 02:00:53,120
Maybe if you've gotten that crisis. We have a mouse pad. Yeah. Nice mouse.

1292
02:00:56,960 --> 02:01:01,120
You're supposed to have light mice. They're supposed to be light. It jumped out of my hands.

1293
02:01:01,120 --> 02:01:07,520
Oh, it fell down behind. Oh, from Ziu Lang Wolf brand. It's actually all right if you don't

1294
02:01:07,520 --> 02:01:13,040
smash it. Anyways, there's a recess. There's a recess portion at the back of the desk that we

1295
02:01:13,040 --> 02:01:17,120
thought about mounting the computer on instead of having it in a case. Oh, yeah. But that was

1296
02:01:17,120 --> 02:01:21,920
another like, we don't have enough time for this situation. Yeah. I can't believe this monitor.

1297
02:01:21,920 --> 02:01:26,960
How much did you get it? 75 US dollars off Java. Yeah. Okay. That's a good deal. It was actually

1298
02:01:26,960 --> 02:01:33,920
sick. Figuring out the balance was really tough. Would you pay for that GPU? 500. 500 CAD. Yeah.

1299
02:01:33,920 --> 02:01:38,400
I still like our deal better. I'm sorry. The original, I had decided 3070 immediately on

1300
02:01:38,480 --> 02:01:42,080
Yeah, we saw that deal and we were like, that is probably like, we should buy the 3070,

1301
02:01:42,080 --> 02:01:47,840
spend the rest on everything else. And then it was like, but the like turbo gas, gas, gas option

1302
02:01:47,840 --> 02:01:53,920
is buy a $500 3080. So we just like did it for fun. Then now we'll see what happens. Your XMP is

1303
02:01:53,920 --> 02:01:59,920
not working. It should. It was not working during when the judges were there. What? It was, I

1304
02:01:59,920 --> 02:02:06,160
literally had it on and I unplugged and moved it here. Then mom and dad start fighting. That's fine.

1305
02:02:06,640 --> 02:02:10,000
We'll use one of our reruns. You can set XMP now because you're like allowed to overclock.

1306
02:02:10,000 --> 02:02:17,360
Oh, are we? All right. See you later. Well, we're just going to rely on software. We're going to download Ryzen Master software and we're going to download MSI Afterburner and we're basically

1307
02:02:17,360 --> 02:02:22,640
just going to turn the power knobs all the way to the end and help for the best. So we are 0.65

1308
02:02:22,640 --> 02:02:26,400
higher. That was the only stable I could get. And then we do have XMP. I mean, there's not much

1309
02:02:26,400 --> 02:02:33,360
for us to do in the 10 minutes overclocking time because we're already pretty dull then. We'll do Cinebench first. All right. We're just hitting start on single core. Start on single core.

1310
02:02:33,920 --> 02:02:39,680
Hey, we're done. 72 points, please. That's lower than your lab score. So we're going to go with

1311
02:02:39,680 --> 02:02:45,840
your lab score. That's lower than our lab score. That's 74. Okay. Hey, there we go. 60. All right.

1312
02:02:45,840 --> 02:02:52,160
Multi-core. Are we giving it a moment to like chill? Nope. Nice try. We're running. Oh, okay.

1313
02:02:52,160 --> 02:03:00,160
Going. What's your score? 564. 545. 545. That's close though. I don't know if I would dance that

1314
02:03:00,160 --> 02:03:05,280
much. We knew you're going to win CPU benchmark. Okay, next is GPU. This is where things fall apart

1315
02:03:05,280 --> 02:03:11,680
a little bit. All right. Three, two, one, go. What was your score? 12,653. What was yours?

1316
02:03:11,680 --> 02:03:18,720
10135. 10135. Well, I think we know who won that one. What do we do next? It is now the blender

1317
02:03:18,720 --> 02:03:24,160
renderer. Okay. Am I missing something here? Is this going to take 46 minutes? No, it should be

1318
02:03:24,160 --> 02:03:28,960
like 90 seconds. Okay. Yeah. It's time remaining 41 minutes. Let's just skip this one and do the

1319
02:03:28,960 --> 02:03:35,040
lab score. Yeah, sure. Fine. What are the scores? Lower is better. Linus got 99.96 seconds and Luke

1320
02:03:35,040 --> 02:03:40,880
got 89.39 seconds. 10 seconds off. That's a worse cap than I had hoped for. What's next?

1321
02:03:40,880 --> 02:03:45,120
We're doing Red Dead. Cool. So then we just hit run benchmark. Yeah. Three, two, one, go.

1322
02:03:46,400 --> 02:03:53,040
Are you guys done? We're almost done. Almost. 97.96. 80.2. All right. Next one is cyberpunk on

1323
02:03:53,040 --> 02:03:58,480
medium. Wait, so did we win this one? You did win that one. Yes. It's a medium, no break tracing.

1324
02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:04,160
That sucks so much. I was specifically confident in cyberpunk and the fact that we're running it

1325
02:04:04,160 --> 02:04:11,520
so low makes me not very confident to be honest. Okay. What was your average? Their score is 98.53.

1326
02:04:11,520 --> 02:04:19,440
105.32. Team balanced. Okay. Next one, F1. Everything low. It's close, but we needed to win

1327
02:04:19,440 --> 02:04:26,000
that. So I think that's kind of it. Oh, did it crash? I don't know. Did they crash? Good thing

1328
02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:30,800
we chose this game. They're toned down the GPU. Tiny bit. Oh, should we turn them on the CPU?

1329
02:04:30,800 --> 02:04:34,480
That was what was unstable before. Just do it like very, very slightly.

1330
02:04:37,120 --> 02:04:40,240
Got to huff it. Huff that copium. D.W said low.

1331
02:04:42,800 --> 02:04:48,800
Okay. 194. 194 again. Let's come have a looky boo. All right, let's see. Average were lower.

1332
02:04:48,880 --> 02:04:57,120
190. But that's not that bad. They were supposed to spank you on this one. This is their chosen

1333
02:04:57,120 --> 02:05:03,040
benchmark. But we still win. A win is a win. A win is a win. Well, our chosen benchmark is

1334
02:05:03,040 --> 02:05:09,760
Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Move on, Luke. W is a W. I had to reboot. I hope our GPU overclock was

1335
02:05:09,760 --> 02:05:16,320
on. Nope, it wasn't. Wait, what? Yeah. Looks gonna fucking kill me. Is that legit? Oh my god.

1336
02:05:16,400 --> 02:05:21,200
Elijah forgot to initialize the GPU clock after we restarted, so that was completely not overclocked.

1337
02:05:21,200 --> 02:05:24,960
Well, turn it on now quick for the last one. Yeah, we did. You can still win this.

1338
02:05:24,960 --> 02:05:30,400
Yeah, sure. So on graphics, everything, the preset is highest. Oh yeah, Raytrace Shadow to

1339
02:05:30,400 --> 02:05:36,480
Ultra. Okay. Is this the last benchmark? This is the last benchmark. It all comes down to this.

1340
02:05:36,480 --> 02:05:42,640
You'd have to beat them by 20% or more on this benchmark. Okay, here we go, here we go.

1341
02:05:46,320 --> 02:05:54,480
That's a butt. Nice. That's another butt. So many butts. That's what this setup was made for.

1342
02:05:55,440 --> 02:05:59,280
You even get that? You're two down. Come on, man. It's fine. What is it? What is it?

1343
02:06:00,000 --> 02:06:07,600
You guys won, I'm sure. Yeah. I don't know why it was so bad. Guess what ours was. 78. 90. 90.

1344
02:06:07,600 --> 02:06:14,480
Wow. That's so weird. Do you want to know what's, do you want to know where? You know, you want to know what's crazy? I can't hear what you're saying over the sound of your fans.

1345
02:06:14,480 --> 02:06:19,600
That's fair. Oh, damn. You want to know the worst part, Glenn? I have a picture here of me

1346
02:06:19,600 --> 02:06:24,480
getting 94. Okay, I guess I have a 92. Don't they get to keep the better of their two tests though?

1347
02:06:24,480 --> 02:06:29,040
Yeah, that's true. So if they got a better score when Labs tested it theoretically. Labs didn't test

1348
02:06:29,040 --> 02:06:33,040
this one. This is a chosen one. They tested it and got a better one. So you could be really kind

1349
02:06:33,040 --> 02:06:37,920
and give them that. David, every time I do that, I lose the game over it. You know that, right?

1350
02:06:37,920 --> 02:06:42,240
How much confidence do you have in your system? You know what? I'll do it again. They can have it.

1351
02:06:42,640 --> 02:06:48,480
Okay, what was your highest score, Elijah? He had 94. 94? 95 on our average FPS.

1352
02:06:50,240 --> 02:06:57,840
It's insanely close. When it comes to these benchmark drag races out of a possible 900 score,

1353
02:06:58,720 --> 02:07:06,160
it's only 13 points of difference. And Team Linus is ahead by those 13 points with 764

1354
02:07:06,880 --> 02:07:12,640
by 751. But there's two different modifiers. There's the judging differential.

1355
02:07:13,600 --> 02:07:20,880
So the average score for Luke's team was 71.3. Okay. And the average score for Linus's team

1356
02:07:21,600 --> 02:07:29,200
was 85.6. So it's a 14.3 boost to their score. What do we do? Do we just like fall over?

1357
02:07:29,520 --> 02:07:35,680
And when it came down to the Labs differential, which was a 15% boost to the winner,

1358
02:07:36,400 --> 02:07:40,000
we have five categories. So someone needs to win three categories in order

1359
02:07:40,640 --> 02:07:45,280
to take that win. You guys will crush us in the sound, but your drive might hurt you if they

1360
02:07:45,280 --> 02:07:48,480
actually test it. Are you gonna let them talk? First category is the out of the box experience,

1361
02:07:48,480 --> 02:07:53,840
which is a little bit of a subjective experience. The winner of that one was Luke. So one Luke,

1362
02:07:53,920 --> 02:08:00,800
zero Linus. You can take it up with the Labs. Okay. I like Labs now. Second test was thermals.

1363
02:08:01,360 --> 02:08:07,280
And it was close. Luke actually had better CPU thermals, but your GPU thermals were very problematic.

1364
02:08:07,280 --> 02:08:11,920
You had a hotspot of 104 on the GPU. They have a broken fan. He didn't tell us about it. And so

1365
02:08:11,920 --> 02:08:18,480
Linus takes that category 1-1, baby. Repasting for the win. Then we tested memory speeds,

1366
02:08:18,480 --> 02:08:22,800
and it was really, really close, even though the specs are different, but Linus did out

1367
02:08:23,280 --> 02:08:31,520
Linus. No, Linus. Linus edged Luke just a little bit on this one. But then it was storage. And

1368
02:08:31,520 --> 02:08:38,240
even if I only included Linus's SSD score, he still would have lost to Luke. Two, two. We did spend

1369
02:08:38,240 --> 02:08:43,360
a notable amount of extra money on our SSD. But an opportunity for Luke's team, the last category

1370
02:08:43,360 --> 02:08:54,080
was sound. And so the winner of Scrapyard Wars, 2024, is Tim Linus.

1371
02:08:57,200 --> 02:09:01,760
I'm ready for him to start crying. Yeah, we have to gather the tears so I can season my food.

1372
02:09:01,760 --> 02:09:05,280
And the tears you have as tattoos don't count. I asked for those. You should have told, oh yeah,

1373
02:09:05,280 --> 02:09:09,840
it's probably better you didn't. Yeah, probably. And it's probably better you guys didn't miss any

1374
02:09:09,840 --> 02:09:14,080
of this year's Scrapyard Wars. I hope you guys enjoyed this. We'll see you again next time.

1375
02:09:14,080 --> 02:09:17,920
Oh yeah, shout out Jawa for sponsoring this video. We all got good deals on Jawa. Yeah,

1376
02:09:17,920 --> 02:09:22,400
if you guys like these systems, they're going to be available for giveaway on Jawa. So get

1377
02:09:22,400 --> 02:09:28,480
over to Jawa.gg. Oh, cool. And they're actually really legit. And one is really loud. Leave a

1378
02:09:28,480 --> 02:09:34,720
comment under the video letting us know which system you'd rather have. We'll let the people decide.

1379
02:09:34,720 --> 02:09:43,920
Yours. I mean, it's pretty nice. If you didn't get that system that I wanted, we would have crushed that.
