You know what's funny we were like we saw the screwdriver he brought it out in the box
I was like hmm. Yeah, how's the screwdriver? No, that looks cool, and then he's like yeah, it kind of looks like you
I was like we got busted You know what as long as it doesn't affect the deal then it's legal the
CPU on here and the GPU are both rad. I'm thinking we rip that stuff out right now. Okay, we post it right now, okay?
Sure, okay, I'm posting on my No, no, we'll use a David's Facebook, but she generously changed his name on okay to John
Yeah, yeah, what a trooper. Here's what we're gonna do to kind of I
Don't know. How do you want to do division of labor here?
You take it out and I can make the listing look pretty. Okay, you might have to
Destimulate that a little the RAM we're keeping
Ow Did I just cut myself? Nope. No blood yet, and I'm not gonna look anymore
So I don't have to fill out the form if there's any blood on the parts I hand you then let me know and I'll fill out the form. I think this cooler is gonna have to go. I
Don't think we can afford this cooler. The other system has a stock cooler, so we're gonna use that instead
I just want to get these listings up as soon as possible because
Coming in under budget at all is reliant on us selling at least some of it and the more we can sell
The better off we are Okay, are you ready to take the next picture?
Yeah, okay. Do you want to grab this? Oh my god a snake kidding kidding. Oh, you know what?
We should do though. We should clean the goop off the bottom make it look shinier. Oh, no
Don't touch that. It'll get all over your hands forever Here hold on. I'll grab some
Okay, hold on we should if we can we should definitely try to make it a little less
Yeah, shmooey
We should have brought a oh that side looks better. Yeah, okay
Hold on photo. I still got to get the fan for you though, Sammy. So let's put that on the dirty side. Okay
Yeah, and then I think she kind of she kind of cleans up pretty decent here. Yep. Oh
Yeah, bud. Okay, so just try not to try not to catch her ugly angles and then that's gonna go in there
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know how it is Okay, so we're just gonna put that on there. Uh, I guess I'll probably write the posts
Or you know what I can help you wait. Do you get karsic? No nice
Okay, so I can dictate when we're in the car and you can post okay. We got this
You know what? We're gonna win this
It's not even gonna be close man
Luke's gonna get recognized so fast No offense to your colleague, but Tom, I think you killed it. I look great
Do you feel bonita I am bonita
He doesn't get the joke. No, I really don't get the joke. What's that mean?
Look what it takes for them to have a fraction of our power or whatever it is
Luke has no chance. You ever the old like new eboo here. That's what I call it. I
Don't call it that. I made that up just now. It sounds terrible. It sounds really weird off-putting
Basically, we need to show that both of these things are included. Okay
Well that screw is cross threaded bloody hell Daniel You gotta have like the beer belly like if you had like a big pregnancy pillow. Oh, no, I don't even need that
No, no, I can okay See
Nice, that's all real keg right there. Who needs a six pack when you got the whole keg
Yeah, there's a mic prex or hanging off me because I'm a woman. I don't have pants right back at pockets. Sorry. I do have pants
Oh, yeah, yeah, that's good. That's good. You should oh look at that. We've got thermal compound and everything
Okay, we can just pull a Sammy and only screw in everything halfway through
Yeah, we have the last screw it would be better did we drop it in here? It's possible. Oh good. Hold on. Hello
Yes, there we go. Got it. Well, okay So we appear to have the full complement of mounting hardware for our cooler. Okay, where the devil did it go?
Oh, it's inside in my seat. Trayvian. Okay, good
Trace be in let's get a shot of this. I mean, it doesn't matter. We can leave it in the trunk
Just sure. Yeah, I mean as long as you don't catch the wrap
It's not in there. Are you getting lens flare? No
Sure Looks like lens flare. I'm just drunk
Look if I make it to this age And I day drink a little bit. I don't think anyone's gonna judge me
I'm just trying to make it look more indoor because I feel like seeing it outdoors is weird, but really yeah
I don't know. I used to take pictures for selling stuff all the time actually
Yeah, but I feel like it was weird me But I feel like sound stuff is different because this like this stuff you don't ever take out
No, I for selling stuff. Yeah, like back on like red flag deals forums and stuff like that back in the day
Maybe should I wrap this in the bag? I don't know what the new warms are though. I
We wouldn't to take a picture of it, but like for selling because I already took the photos. Absolutely, okay
Hold on. Let's take a let's take a photo of our combo. Okay. Can we kind of make yeah, we can do this that work
the wrap is not in a
But you have to take the LTT stir Yeah
Did you do that on purpose Andrew?
Yeah
You should reach out to info at Linus media group.com. Yeah, I will say that we haven't done a ton of sponsorships
We did do a Baja team Last year, but like we can't do all of them. I think he may be gone. Oh, did I hear your application? He said
Yeah, I can be back. Do you want to reply to him? Uh?
Personally, he says five minutes. Okay. Okay. Okay
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 interesting take on a friendship that you have
Yeah, yeah, yeah, one of your employees. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah
Yeah, look if you can't delight in the tears of your friends, then you know really what is there in life a
Lot of other things like food food is great. I love food
But imagine if you could season your food with Luke's tears
Soggy food, but salty. Yeah, we got this
We'll list it for 45. Well, we need pretty quick sales
We basically have to sell everything in one to two days. That's true, especially then the sooner we sell it
35 know what our budget is gonna be
Yes, like you know paint and knick-knacks and stuff like that to really make the gaming space look good, right?
and you're going by a
Male name so they won't try to low ball you I think
No, it's serious. I try to sell computer things and then people just assume. I don't know anything about it
Really? Yeah, like I was trying to sell this like gaming mouse and they're like, oh, it's selling for this price
I'm like it literally isn't but okay They're trying to talk me down
Wow, I talked to Curtis about it for me sure and he was like, I'll just sell it for you
People don't try to talk him down like that. I think we might have cracked that a little or chipped it a little
Yeah Well, we'll take a photo. We'll flip it around. No, no, no, no, we'll flip it around
We'll flip it around when we take it when we give it to them. We'll put it on the bottom and then it'll be fine
Okay, you know what? We'll do it right now. Now, Sammy something we might want to consider for our listings is that your time doesn't count against my budget
Yes, so we might want to say delivery available
Okay, and then if we can get a decent price or we can move things a little bit faster by delivering them that may make sense
So let's at least leave it open as an option. Okay. Let's start with the motherboard cooler
Wait, did we ever get the picture of it with the like cooler sticking on the top of it and stuff?
Not on top but like with it like on top of the box. Oh, we did. Yeah, okay. Awesome
So let's let's list that combo first because I think we're more likely to sell that we should put on a listing
Do not sell it. Yeah. Yeah known scammer Duke Morrow. What kind of what kind of name is that?
What do you say he just didn't Oh
That's funny Okay, so I have a message from someone named Shawn with no mutual friends this time
Who says I'm a serious buyer cash-in-hand. Let's talk, but the way he types does not yeah
Who says serious buyer cash-in-hand? Let's talk serious buyer cash-in-hand really anyone who's an actually serious buyer
Doesn't have to say they're a serious buyer Yeah, oh
You know what you should do what offer to video call with them
I'll get on a video call right now Sure, do you mind doing a video call to discuss? I replied to nice try Luke $69. Can I pick it up at 4 20 p.m. Tomorrow?
Hello, I showed you my offer
Why video call Shawn
So you don't believe I want to see I just want to see the cat. I want to see the cash in your hand
But what if this guy is serious, I don't know I don't think so Sammy
Okay, can you check when they created their account they made their account? Well, it was a while ago
Like they at least had their account since November 2023
Man Luke is the kind of person who would have a burner Facebook account though
Okay, but they changed their profile picture to a random Asian guy
Okay, all right, okay, let's say it's real it say say
Never mind. It doesn't have to be a video call
Do you want to come pick up the what's what is he buying of the case? Do you want to come pick up the case?
Dude, if we get scammed by Luke, I'm gonna be pretty upset the stupid thing is he ends up wasting an equal amount of his own time
Has Luke stopped wasting our time on that case? Yes. Okay. Are you gonna be fielding messages all night selling this stuff?
Cuz like I can't believe how active these posts are it's gay can't be real
Maybe it's just Luke with his thousand burner accounts that he made like a billion years ago. I mean it could be I
Was trying to buy something off Facebook marketplace and I replied to this lady like within an hour of her posting and
She was like, can you come pick it up like today in Toronto? I was like, yes She's like, okay. Well, if you don't want to come pick it up like I have like a bunch of other buyers
So I actually think some people just with this kind of stuff have like, I don't know
Notifications on I mean worst case it's Luke wasting my time and it's not like I'm not replying to other stuff. All right
Should we preemptively post some of the stuff you're going to pick up tonight, but we don't have a photo
Yeah, we can add the photos after well, no, we should have it in hand. You're still gonna have like an hour today, right?
Yeah, okay, so then maybe you can post them tonight
Okay, and then I'll start monitoring messages as soon as I'm allowed to in the morning. Okay. All right. We got this
I kind of just turned my brain off and I was like, whatever you say Linus. No, it's a bad idea
Stop doing that. Yes, you do. I realized that last night
Okay, how's the cleanliness of the case the case is okay
It's not as the top was like it looked like he kind of did a little bit of dusting
I think there's a bit of dust in there, but it's not like okay
whole chunks Pickup only must take all I don't want eight chairs
Make a table out of chairs the functionality of our system, right? So does it have Wi-Fi I'm checking
If it does have Wi-Fi we can tell this guy. Hey, we have another motherboard. I don't think it does crap power supply
We're selling for sure and the hard drive we're selling
Hard drive we might need we'll hold off and then the knock to a fans
Which I don't think we're gonna get very much for money is money. Okay, so I
Don't trust myself to take it apart Um
What I can do is I go on LTT and I look up how to take a part of computer
Watch it reverse. It's okay. We got a free chair from the guy, too. Nice and it's like a mint green
It's a little gross, but it's okay. I think we can fix her up. Nice
At least it has like a little pop of color
Like a millennial like baby pink and it'll like compliment each other, you know, like
Pantone had the You know Pantone. Why are you generalizing about my generation?
We don't all like baby pink. No, it's called millennial pink Linus
That's what Pinto named it. It was color of the year He definitely looked at both of you. Yeah, a couple of times when like when you were looking at it
I don't know if he thought about that, but like or maybe he's like is the what is going on here. What a pair
Yeah, it could be Is this a sugar daddy situation doesn't look like you have a zine sugar
Yeah, and all you're getting is a $10 keyboard. So I'm gonna say otherwise need to meet in
Delta Yeah, that's kind of in the middle. I'm being a fair guy. I'm a fair guy
I'm a fair boy for real though, Sammy. We're actually sitting pretty tight right now
Like good tight. Yeah, okay not tight on money tight. Well, both but not as tight on money as Luke would be ha ha
Yeah, yeah What's up?
Luke tears
I'm the better Sammy, you know other Sammy's not actually competing you up. I thought he was he told me he was
No, oh Take that Elijah
Yeah Got him
Except it feels mean to dunk on Elijah. I really do want to beat Linus
Yeah, I want to be the new guy that comes in and helps continue Luke's winning streak
Oh, yeah, pretty awesome. We got to destroy. Okay. I found something interesting. I reached out to this dude
free computer keyboard Printer
Dude, it rounds it out man. What if you got the Xbox now Xbox on one side?
Missed opportunity they're junk, but what I like about this is
We will have a tower a tower a mouse a keyboard
We will have everything we need technically Even if we only end up using like the keyboard. Yeah, it's worth picking up
and like We get a power supply and we could end up using
like a few I
Don't know. I've never gone beyond to we could technically we could power the GPU by itself
We could power the motherboard by itself and we could power the drives by themselves
And the printer and the printer by itself we go get a power barn. It's just part of the build you
Have this power He's gonna look at the computer at the end. He's gonna be like, why are there five power cables coming off of this?
I'm so down you do that. Yeah, you could you need a jumper on each one
Like you need a jumper between for the motherboard because that's what actually no, I know that's that's fine
We can make those out of anything. Yeah, we could just cut the wire from the other cables that we aren't using a maze. I
Hate this so much The Zotac actually only needs two eight pins
So we would only need two power supplies for the Zotac for the GPU
But we could totally That's horrible idea. How much power does the 3080 take the one we're getting recommends a 750 watt
Yeah, but for a system with one in it like how much power draws just a 3080 taking a 321
According to Zotac site so we could get away with like a 400 watt
No way why no, no, I'm just saying just a 400 just for the GPU. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like if we got this at work
We are fairly committed to multiple power supply
We also need to be ready to kill our babies and move on from this idea. Yeah, okay
I I don't want us to go down to the last, you know minute. He's like, where's our second power supply?
So I'll send this to you in a moment, but I may have just found a
$35 2000 watt mining power supply
Which one is that because we think only has PCIe power on it. So it's designed for powering GPUs
You know we tested one of those 2000 watt power supplies, right? There's no way it's actually 2000 watts. Yeah, they were like really dangerous. Oh
Like if you open them up or like do something wrong you'll die
And we're just gonna strap it to the back of the desk you're gonna reach around to plug in a USB peripheral and die
Okay, maybe we don't do that. No, I'm not disagreeing. I'm down. Oh my god. It does. It just has PCIe small
Yes, it is lemon crash. I like this
Because then that leaves us like 145
For the rest of the system, maybe maybe we get the low ball this guy just cut him in half
Just be like 25 bucks. Yeah, I'll be there today. I called earlier about potentially sifting through any like
Recycle or sort of junk parts that you guys might have
I talked to one of the bosses. He was gonna call you back leader, but he wanted to know like what specifically you were kind of after
Right now, honestly, we're we're sort of after quite a range of things. We don't need a graphics card
I've got a buddy who's gonna be giving me one of his old ones, which is nice
And we've got a monitor lined up, which is good
But we're still pretty light on on things for the for the tower a power supply is definitely something we're looking for
but honestly everything else that would go like inside of the the
computer box itself is is We're still looking for those things
Yeah, okay. Well, yeah, I think I take a look he is only working till noon today, so he says don't look tomorrow
And then I'm gonna need you to call back and kind of let you know what we have
Okay, great is is would you rather is there a time I should call back tomorrow?
Would you rather it works that way or what works best for you?
Doesn't matter. I can call you or you can call me you'll talk to me either way
So it's up to you if you want to call back or you want me to call you back. Okay, sounds good. We'll figure it out
What time do they open? What time are you open tomorrow?
Eight eight. Oh great fantastic. Okay, so there's still a maybe
This is why yeah, we might have to hold off on power supply guy. Yeah, I think I totally agreed before you sent the message
So that's I'm not yeah, you were like, yeah, send it. Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's my bad
But maybe maybe we go like oh shoot my girl had to borrow the car
Yeah, yeah, yeah, something like that be like the old ball and chain
You know how it is Cuz you're talking is Duke, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so maybe try to play it off like oh shoot man. Sorry like
Would be fine if I got it like tomorrow afternoon or something. Yeah, cuz I mean, that's probably yeah
So let's try to delay that guy a little bit found this listing which we might be able to actually like low ball
Cuz he has a graphics card, but he hasn't listed for 350 right now. It's an i5
8600k With a 1070 and he has 24 gigs of RAM. It's in like a Corsair case. It comes with an extra SSD and
Normal hard drive And it's a Z370 platform
So like it's like a pretty like I think we should message them offer him to keep all of the storage and keep the GPU
Okay, I'm gonna message the dude and then just be like hey if you keep what what power supply do you have if you keep the
GPU and storage do you think we could Well, I guess I should wait for the power supply. I'm just gonna ask him what power supplies included. Yeah, cool
That's a good idea Cuz yeah, dude, that's a really good platform. Yeah
Cuz the main thing we want is like our GPU is so overpowered. It's not even funny
So we need we want to try to get the system that holds back our GPU the least
Yeah, whatever system we're gonna be able to afford is going to hold back the GPU
Yeah, we just want to find the one that's gonna do it as a little because yeah Like even an 8th gen is gonna bottleneck those people that are on the judging board
Do you think they would think it's cool that it's mounted on the back of this desk with the recessed panel and everything? I
think Two of them two or three maybe one and a half
Maybe none of them What do you think Ploof would think I
Think Ploof isn't gonna care. He's gonna be like ah smart
But he's not gonna like give it points and I don't think he's gonna take any away and Riley's gonna dog us
Yeah, Riley's just gonna dog everyone though Yes, like I think if we showed up with a picture perfect PCM RPC
He'd be like wait a cop out and go with a picture perfect PCM RPC Nicole. I think
She she would like it. I feel like if we if we cable managed it really nicely Nicole might like it
Yeah, like if it's if it's bare bones on the back But like the power supplies on the bottom and the cables come out of the power supply and like this cool way
It's all nicely managed. She might be I think we could win Nicole over without a case
But I think you would have to like look good So when we go to communicate tonight technically within the rules all I can say is yes or no
But there was no rules about what you could say so if we needed a longer response from me
We could do like the Martian
Stuff where you like ask me what letter I'm trying to say next
And I can say yes or no a yes
And we just spell out a word I just got a message back from the person with a zero dollar office chair out
Which I'm actually pretty happy about too because
Like it's legit. Oh, it's nice. Yeah, I saw a bunch of zero dollar office chairs and they were all
Like messed up and this one looks fine. I give you see here along with my
Colt Colt revolver tattoo free office chair and it looks fine. There's another system
It's 200 bucks, so we'd have to talk them down, but it's a Ryzen 7 2700 X message message
It's just mobo and CPU. So then we also have to talk them down enough to get RAM. Oh
And never mind and everything else ignore that
Whole thing I was like wait. No, we're good cut that whole part editor. Don't make me look like an idiot
Oh Yo, are you rolling? Okay? I messaged that dude who had 120 and he he I was like, what are the specs?
He's like, I just sold it four seconds ago
What are the odds that it's
Linus pretty high. That's pretty funny. So what system was that?
That was the guy that just said PC runs fortnight. So I messaged him saying what are the specs and he's like, sorry
I just sold it four seconds ago
I wonder what the specs are it is what it is dang could you still tell me
Maybe the dude will like give us some insider information because maybe it was Linus
Yeah, yeah, that's my next question. I like if he gives me the specs
I'm gonna be like was it an older fellow who picked it up
And I'll be like gosh darn it that was my dad I think it was totally Linus because I just realized the guy said a black car with an N and
Sammy yeah, he didn't he didn't say it wasn't an old guy. Yeah
That's a not good system. Yeah, I think we're gonna crush him in terms of performance. I feel like they might also be getting a 3080
Why else would they need a system that cheap? Unless they're spending a lot on the setup. Yeah, they might have a really wicked monitor
You're probably right though. It might be him. Do you know if she has a black car? She has it like the dark gray Tesla
So like arguably a black car
Plot thickens that was like an AMD like what he messaged me
AMD vision a8. Yes, that's like what even is that?
That's before your time brother it was built for office use so no is the first Google result when I say what is it?
I can't wait to see the edit of this because it's gonna be like totally not him
And now the editor is gonna cut to Linus being like we're just bought an 11900k
The whole just free computer. Yeah is available
Because it has everything except the monitor So we're getting a full tower a printer a keyboard and a mouse for free and
We'll just salvage anything we can from that Yeah, because we might get nothing helpful from the tower other than like a case and a power supply
Yeah, that's fine because if the case is big enough to fix it like fit the GPU
Yeah, and maybe the RAM can be carried over like if it's DDR4 and we get a DDR4 system
Yeah, like we could just double up on the RAM. I say we go for it because then at least we have something
My favorite part is just having like the keyboard and mouse and things like that
So like we might end up using none of it, but I think a printer sick too as soon as they start judging the system
We send a print job That just says thank you for checking out my system or something, you know, we found to 3080s. Yeah, one guy hasn't responded
The other guy said you can pick up tomorrow night
That's after our due date. We were like, yeah, no because it doesn't work. It's fine
And we said what about tonight and he said all right 615
But we would have to spend $500 of our budget on a GPU that we don't know if we can power or run
Do it Do it you win. That's how you win
That was inspiring. Good luck And we have some offers out right now that very likely could respond and give us something
But like we're gonna be having to pressure them hard tomorrow to be like listen
I will literally like Pick you up from work drive you home to give it to me if that's what's needed
Because the odds are they're at work tomorrow. I'd love to do that. Pick them up on your bike
Pick them up on Betsy Um, I wonder if like buying someone coffee is against the rules if we don't use our computer budget
I was like when works for you and they said as early as possible dot dot dot
So I said I can probably head over now. What's the address and they said may I ask what city you live in?
Why does that matter? I just I realized I hadn't looked at my profile yet
Have you seen it?
You can see i'm i'm duke morrow I got a flaming skull and you know my bike is my profile picture and I work at nyx mobile welding
Oh, we see this guy says he's in abitzford. So yeah, we can leave now
I think you'll have to go along 45 minutes. Yeah, it'll be 515 by the time we get there. Yeah, like I could just stay out there
And then continue to shop and like do stuff
You got to pick up the GPU though It's true. Where's the GPU? Oh shoot. Yeah, so we're not going to be able to pick that up
The dude with the ten core workstation responded and I asked him what power supply he has
He's friends with Jake. Damn it. He's friends with andy. He's friends with connor. Who is this guy?
Wait john vella stuck Isn't that Linus? Isn't that Linus's name? We totally just missaged Linus
Let's let's let's f*** with him a little bit I wonder if he doesn't even have it yet and he's like pre-listing it
I'm back at the studio. It is just after eight o'clock. I'm not technically done until nine
But I've dropped everything off here for luke. So when he gets in tomorrow morning, he'll be able to go through it
And look at it. I've also got to return my mic and stuff
But that was funny that the dude recognized me But hopefully luke will be able to get this computer working. I'm a little on that power supply. So
Got 25 bucks to spare We'll see how it goes. How do I open your car? There's a button near the top. No, yeah, yeah that typical duke
All right, so keyboard mouse desk pad speakers
Chair if they haven't shared uh, you could get a second power supply
Just in case. Yeah, if there's RAM. That's like similar speed or slow like slightly slower, but we can get more of it
That might also be better. Yeah. Good luck. Thank you
Uh, we're trying to make a computer for our nephew ryan
um So we've we've got some stuff right now. We're mostly looking for
Some form of audio solution like headphones or speakers or something a keyboard a mouse
Maybe a power supply if there's one of those Okay, they literally just like walked right in front of the car and like
Kind of looked this direction, but I think luke did a good job at kind of redirecting what he's doing
But they could have easily just looked in I know this guy knows me
Because I used to come here and get free tech all the time. So it's going to be a little
So we had to awkwardly recliner
