It's Microsoft bimbos bro. What is that though? What is Microsoft bimbos?

I'm practicing for it Just the one app I unplugged my computer with my rage Very big power brick for that laptop. It's also a battery bank Got it it lit on fire one of them lit on fire someone posted on reddit or something I've been meaning to stop using it, but I haven't gotten around to it And I have a super short cable because I broke my other cable on that last live stream and I haven't gotten around to Oh, oh, I could just steal a cable That sounds like a terrible excuse and you're I feel like your insurance won't cover you now when your house burns down I've been meaning to throw it out because I know it's a fire hazard. Yeah, sorry. I wasn't really listening Crap we don't have a long enough cable. Yeah, yes insurance Insurance is good. Okay. Why am I being prompted for a password now? I Thought Dan I thought that's the whole point of a Now it won't even now it's not even prompting me any more Well, it's stuff so complicated now Or maybe there is there a password for it. Oh, okay, well Okay, well did Dude, I couldn't even figure out how to I couldn't even figure out how to sign into our security cameras the other day Open a support ticket No, I did open a support ticket. It did not help Because I have the one ubiquity app and it has like a bunch of them Oh, and then I apparently have to go in this other ubiquity app and it like has the other ones But also no, they're not there so Yeah, so so like protect app is gone. Is that is that a thing? I Can never remember either. Okay. No, there's you there's unified protect which has your nvrs Okay, doesn't have some of them. Did you switch the site? I don't know dude I don't know they used to just all be in a list and it was easy. Yeah, but we have like five sites now Yeah, so so but four of them are in a list and one of them isn't I'm not allowed to say anything because they give us things for free. Ah There's a reason I have a counter in front of my desk. I Didn't hear what he said, but I don't want to know That's the thing with that Dan guy All right You want to do a quick run through the script or you get to go I run through the script I don't know. It's up to you if you want to me. I am a professional then then just go rehearsals are for amateurs. You're right Also, we've already run through it. Yeah, I know I was just double-checking Your number locks on thank you I helped I wanted it on tech tip. Oh, sorry now. It's on. Thank you. I'll turn it off though What a guy you see what I have to put up with around here see what I have to put up with around here All right, so are we are we just waiting on me to 100% good sir. Oh my god, my hair is like Choir boy today. It's better than the blonde. Can we add a little more? I mean, yeah, sure, but that's so wow Was that ever a low bar? You should go pink hair. Sorry pink hair. I do pink hair. Sure. Why not? All right D brand Get on that D brands not watching this they don't subscribe to flow plane. I Mean they sell stickers for a living or the can't afford one. Yeah, like Just tell me if you're a poor boy D brand or but what was what was poke main was a if you a broke boy Just say so broke boy. That's right. Sorry. Absolutely base pokey broke boy Here's where I would put my arc card if I had one no we even made we make that joke and not this video I think there's another video we make a yeah, I wasn't this one some someone put an if I had one in in something recently It's not out yet. I don't think we shot it yet. Oh, that was the RTX Scrum you did with Adam. I think you were talking about Maybe yeah, oh, I bet it's too early to stream. I don't I don't know how people brains function before noon because mine doesn't Just start shifting everyone's schedule to starting afternoon then No People don't like it Okay All right, I think we're I think we're ready to go cool. All right, let's do this thing cool All right I'm good to I'm good. Okay Well, I do why haven't we started the rehearsal yet Don't you dare? Just just I swear. All right. I will do a practice one I'll do the last time I built a $500 gaming PC brand new parts was four years ago And if I'm being honest it kind of sucked It wasn't my fault. What do you think good energy, you know, I think you could go a little less energy I think you're gonna turn people off with this little less energy. Yeah, okay. I'll like channel my Tina Belcher The last time I built a $500 gaming PC with brand new parts was Four years ago, and if I'm being honest it kind of sucked It wasn't my fault All right, I think I can do this you got this if you were a spice you'd be flour love it That's from Bob's burgers, which he refuses to watch because I downloaded it or I bought it. Um, I just Haven't watched it yet Now now Elijah because of you. I'm gonna have a red mark on my head for the entire rest of this stream It's gonna make it sound like I hit you I Thought it was the other way. I think it is actually possible. I think it is actually possible to hit someone by just Bewildering them so hard that they hit themselves. It's like a telekinesis. It's like a spell. It's like a magic spell You should work on it. Yeah, I don't think I could ever be as good as you All right, all right This guy he's can't take him anywhere That's why you that's why I'm locked here. Oh, but that's why you're what locked here locked here. Yeah, I've trapped it That again Okay All right Okay, okay the laws and we Okay, here's what we're gonna do Andy We're gonna start on This side so we see everything but the arc card So you can go a little wider. Yeah, so I'm like this maybe maybe a little bit give me a little bit more of that power supply Oh, yeah, beautiful, and then I'm gonna go Not anymore Intel has changed the game with their word blah blah blah, so we'll go over there Does that kind of make sense for the intro? Okay, and then you guys have all the stuff to like cut away to right and do I have cues in the script for when you're Doing that or do I really need them? I'm gonna be just talking with Dan about when we're cutting away There's only the two parts because there's no green man overlay for the sponsor or whatever Nope, you're just gonna straight shoot it to the camera. Oh is oh, okay The only thing we're cutting away for is when we talk about The case and the GPU. Okay. Hold on. I need to No, no, you're good you don't have to oh my god, what do you do in Andy? Are you making it awkward now? You're making it awkward Okay, let's see timing last time I built a $500 gaming PC with brand new parts was four years ago If I'm being honest kind of sucked wasn't my fault at that budget. I could only afford the lowest card in the aisle Okay, so about seven Okay, I Just read whatever's on the prompter I Don't actually know anything about computers Okay, I'm gonna put this one away All them wrinkles. Oh come on you guys Be nice. You don't want to drive me to Botox. Do you? Maybe attract a younger audience Oh Tennis elbow not good or as I call it badminton elbow I just want this off the table, but I want it to be convenient to grab later. You know what? Oh, I forgot this is Snap ARM 55% is a lot not a lot for the whole stream. What am I even doing? All right, let's put this away. Actually, I'm gonna put this here and it can charge while we do this Maybe will it fit? Yeah, okay, it's charging perfect. So now I will have battery later in my battery bank My battery savings account Oh, yeah, he doesn't have the belt. Hey, it looks uh, is it just this monitor? Or did we did we play around with the Lutz a little bit? It looks really really kind of sharp and contrasty today Okay, that looks bad So little dark Yeah, no, it looks good. Did you guys do anything different? I think we just have a good-looking host, you know, it works Don't be a kiss ass. What the heck? I'm trying. What's your problem, buddy? Oh, man. I don't know Andy. It looks a little brown A little brown, or is that just Elijah's nose? That's I got that before you did All right, all right, let's do this thing. All right Let's do this mess. Oh, right. Am I the one? Activating the selected. Yes, please. Oh, man. Would you like me to take your laptop then? I would actually love that. I'd love if you could take my laptop away once the selected is resumed Okay, so basically I'm gonna press it and then oh Yeah, oh man, that looks kind of natural. Hey, Andy, Andy Here you can you can show them them behind the the magic. Yeah behind the scenes movie magic See, I've got my laptop over there I'm gonna be like monitoring for when the stream actually goes live. It's gonna be cool. As soon as you start talking I'm just gonna move it. You'll like it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Okay. All right, here we go resuming the selected now. Oh and There we go and Okay, sorry, let's start I Don't know what it is when shows easy, but I get like I almost have like PTSD about starting other streams Cuz like things go wrong with them so much Name one hundred bad streams you've done you can't check mate We got this All right, okay Okay, all right, all right, all right Okay It's the boomer scared of the live stream kitties no All right Okay, okay, I got this. Okay, I'm hitting it now boom You The last time I built a $500 gaming PC with brand new parts was four years ago and If I'm being honest, it kind of sucked. It wasn't my fault I mean at that budget I could only afford the lowest card in NVIDIA's GTX gaming lineup and I paired it with the lowest chip in AMD's Ryzen 3000 series and even with those compromises We ended up blowing the budget and we were stuck running at low to medium settings at 1080p Well, not any more Intel has changed the low-budget gaming computer scene with the release of their $250 arc B580 thanks to this GPU right here Everything that you guys see on the table is brand new hardware and came to a total of $540. Okay. Okay. Okay. We still broke the budget, but we broke it by less and If you're willing to put your trust in some brands that we've never heard of you can get the same performance as us brand new for $500 Let's start building but not until after I tell you about our sponsor green man gaming They are running their holiday sale until January 10th Including big savings like 20% off helldivers to 74% off red dead to ultimate Sorry, you didn't put redemption in there and I've got confused red dead redemption to ultimate edition and even more award-winning games Like God of War Ragnarok Head to the link in the description to find out more about the sale and stick around because we're going to be browsing Green man gaming and having you guys help us pick some games to test after we finish our build Let's not waste any time and jump right into our CPU of choice. I mean at this kind of budget here I'm using the term choice a little bit loosely here Let's have a look at the CPU that AMD was willing to give us at a price that we can afford the Ryzen 5 5500 see here's the thing AMD doesn't really make new Ryzen 3 processors for the retail market anymore We did find some relatively current ones, but they were only am only and not accessible if you're building your own PC The good news is that by choosing an older Ryzen 5. We're still getting pretty good bang for our buck We get six cores 12 threads boost clocks to 4.2 gigahertz and AMD's somewhat Aging but still quite potent Zen 3 architecture. This cost us $79 and Thankfully includes a cooler meaning that we don't have to spend budget on one later as for our motherboard Well, I'm gonna be completely honest with you guys I'll be finding out in real time if this was a good choice We literally fired up PC part picker and sorted low to high the as rock a 520m hdv micro was still a whopping $70 How is it that even cheap motherboards are so expensive these days and what are we even getting for features here? Let's do an unboxing Andy old-school unboxing style. We get two SATA cables An I o shield Whoo, that's not Halloween. Why am I doing spooky voice? Okay, we got a manual. Let's see No words. Ah, we get an m.2 screw Button battery safety notice and we get the board itself. I am expecting this thing to be I Actually don't know what I'm expecting Am I expecting it to be basic because it's the cheapest motherboard on the market? Or am I expecting it to be decent because I paid $80 for it? No, $70 either way. Oh, you know what? Actually compared to the budget boards of my younger years I Bump the table as I was walking around it. I managed to snipe my mute button Check that out that right there my friends. That's that skill. All right So we get actually what looks like probably either a three plus two or four plus one phase VRM design Which makes sense that it would have somewhat decent VRMs on it Given that it does have socket a m4 and technically is compatible with even some pretty high-draught chips We don't have really any cooling for it, but Hey, at least it's not one of those boards where it has the through holes for cooling But then just doesn't come with a cooler because it's a cost-down one. So you look at it and you're like Clearly the idea was to put cooling on here is that because it needed it or because it was Aesthetic hard to say we only get two dim slots But that is pretty normal for a lower-end board and honestly speaking on modern platforms most of the time I probably wouldn't use all four dim slots anyway. We've got a couple of PCIe slots That one is at least full x16 and we get m.2, which is nice to see four SATA ports front USB 3 But no type C couple USB 2s actually a pretty complete overall package Oh Whoa, I owe. Oh, wow. Wow. You get you get some modern stuff Okay, you get a handful of USB 3 ports gigabit LAN You know audio jacks, but no man You get some retro stuff on here to to go along with your HDMI. You get DVI DV ID specifically you get VGA PS 2 for that classic keyboard you're rocking and a couple USB 2 ports Frankly speaking Not bad Like there's nothing here from a gaming standpoint, but I'm looking at going Yeah, I'm as long as it runs stably and doesn't have any serious problems with it I think I'm actually okay with this now Elijah you did mention that there were some cheaper boards correct We actually found some on new egg for as low as $43 $43, but they okay. There's got to be a reason we didn't choose them. Let's go ahead and let's fire up the old the old fresh egg The old not aged, you know fertilized and hatched egg It's new I got it. Yeah, I know. I'm just trying to be helpful. Okay components and storage come on come on over here, Andy Let's find the cheapest The cheapest a m4 motherboard we can I want one that's in stock I want one that's sold by new egg and I want one that is brand new Discount current promotion you what the heck is useful links? Combo up savings warranty. What is what does warranty mean? Oh? Okay, okay, that's cool. You can select the warranty thing Availability discount dang it. Where is ice? I swear I found this before Started the stream and now I can't find it anymore. I want to not refurbished one Sort by lowest price Do you know how to find that wait no way Elijah yes, sir the cheapest thing they have is 94 dollars now. What the heck is going on here? Seller are you on Canadian or are you on no? I'm on calm. Oh Oh That's That is actually not what I was expecting to happen here It's kind of funny because remember the brands of those boards were brands We didn't recognize and we kind of made a joke in script review that they might vanish in a week. Yeah, I Guess those brands vanished within the week. No, there's no way. There's no way. We're gonna find it We're gonna find it. Do you have a link to the boards? Not from those cheap ones. No Show more. Okay. Oh my goodness. Look at some of these brands. There's hoeing gager You see this Andy We got hoeing gager brand. We've got ecom hopper. I found a 50 we've got NFH Zed P. Okay. Oh, hold on. I think it's this one. I think I got it Yep, that's the same one dude. So it's actually gone up in price. It's gone up in price the the One aunty one aunty. Oh, I have Andy Andy help me Like no All right. Well, it's $56 now for one of these. Oh, dude, that would only save us like 15 bucks hamburgers, all right Well, anyway We're gonna see if we can end up under 500 bucks either way. Let's go ahead and get our CPU installed here In case we don't find the yeah, oh, it was $43 before Okay, for those of you who have never seen how to install an AM4 CPU, this is gonna be a treat So you lift up the ARM you do the thing. Oh, yeah, there you go. Got that triangle right there. Mmm. The wish is golden triangle Would you eat golden triangles breakfast cereal? Oh, yeah, because I think I would I Be super down for some golden triangles. I think that's a pretty I think that's a pretty promising promising cereal name All right. Well, I get this cooler installed. Oh my god. Where did you find this cooler Elijah? It was in the stock file, Ben It's so dirty. Is it I grabbed the one that was on top The one you would get would be much cleaner Yeah See the thing is a lot of our CPUs are either samples from AMD which don't come with coolers or they're just They've been kicking around long enough that we've lost all the packaging and coolers and accessories and all that so This is just a random AMD stock cooler. Yours would probably look a little different Dan I think the script calls for me to do or the plan calls for me to do a merge message right about now Yeah, sure. I've got a new message. Should I explain what they are? Oh, yes Yeah, merge messages are the way to interact with our live streams. All you got to do is go on LTT Store calm We've got a lot of great stuff that you can check out there right now You can back order one of our precision screwdrivers and bit sets. You can pick up a regular screwdriver We've got lots of great clothing and apparel t-shirts hoodies. Oh Oh wait, no, I think the cargo pants are out of stock. Whatever the point is we've got lots of stuff and Just add it to your cart and you'll see a little box to leave a merge message for the stream It'll go to producer Dan who will forward it to me or throw it up on the on the stream Or forward it to someone else internally who can answer your question. Basically, he'll get you an answer Sometimes his answer is frankly speaking not great It's just whatever he can quickly type up when he's going through the flurry of merge messages But hey, at least you get something in return you get acknowledgement from Dan and you get your order in the mail Which is better than a lot of sort of throw money at the screen streamer things So that's how merge messages work Dan. Do you want to show them how a curated one works? Sure Hey, LDE does Intel with their XE to graphics Potentially make the cut and shift things for NVIDIA HQ to make them change their path. I Don't know. I really don't think so. I think that if I'm NVIDIA right now I am looking at XE as kind of like an interesting side show Because like all you got to do to figure out where NVIDIA's priorities lie is follow the money, right? so I Forget the exact mix right now because I haven't looked at it in a little bit and it's not the kind of thing that keeps me up at Night. I'm not an NVIDIA shareholder But what I can tell you is that there has been a big shift in their revenues between What used to make them a predominantly gaming? Oh and also professional visualization company to what they are now, which is a predominantly enterprise Compute company that has a gaming ARM Right now XE to is not any real threat to Intel's enterprise ambitions and So I just think they're probably Looking at this Kind of going okay. Well, this is a thing that exists and we're aware of I doubt there I doubt it's going to I doubt it's going to result in any kind of Significant shift in strategy at NVIDIA with that said with that said NVIDIA has gotten to where they are by being ruthless competitors sometimes when it just like Doesn't even matter when they could totally just let someone else have a bone They're like no, I will have all the meat and all the bones and all the broth and all the vegetables And everyone else can have nothing and that's gotten them to where they are today So you never know with NVIDIA. They might just ignore arc treat it as a complete non-threat I mean Intel is currently a ship without a captain even how is how can you take them that seriously? but They also might just go hmm someone else got a morsel Let's cross them You never can't tell with those guys This mounting bracket is stuck and I'm doing my best to stall for time while I fix it But I'm having a very difficult time with it. The ARM is Stuck too high and it won't come down low enough to grab the to grab the thing Dan Do you have another merch message to help me stall with? Oh Good, I just one just came in. Oh nice wonderful. How do you know if you're in love? what What what kind of wait what is that a real merch message? That's not you made that up It'll pop up on the screen in a second. No way. It's from Bradley. Nobody sent that There it is. Oh It's real. He can't fake that to my knowledge. I don't lie. How do you know if you're in love? Well Let me put it this way You see that special computer You lock eyes for the first time She's running doom eternal Actually, that's a that's a bit of an older it's a bit of an older game, which is fine Which is fine. It's fine to be into the older computers some of them. They've They've really taken care of themselves and what that's okay. Sorry. This is really this is really coming off the rails here India Indiana Jones in the great circle. They I Don't know I don't know how to answer that question. So instead I'm just going to talk about fixing this cooler It looks like it will require some disassembly so I've pulled out my LTT precision screwdriver that hopefully oh wait, do I even need I need to do this? Oh Goodness, I don't actually know if I need to take out this screw But I'm I believe that you just hook over one of them and then throw down the latch on the other side I don't think you have to remove that if you want to put it on the computer No, no, no, no, the problem is that this is stuck. Oh It won't come down So, no, no, I'm well aware of how to install an AMD stock cooler you guy Thank you for that though. I Was there when the AMD stock cooler was written Daniel Besser Geez goes on the motherboard. Yeah, thank you for that Technically the CPU but so the issue is that I need to get in there. I've seen this before where it gets jammed Don't forget to put the CPU in first. So you guys thought you were tuning into a stream where we were going to be doing a Built computer build but instead you're getting the first ever AMD stock cooler tear down on LTT Are you kidding me? How does this come off? I? Just need to get I just need to get in there Okay, does the fan pop out or what? Are you even serious right now AMD? Yeah, no, there's plastic clips that hold the fan in so we're just gonna Bend those back ever so gently All the while cursing Elijah The new cooler out here. Nope No, what I want to do is defeat this one. It is now my arch nemesis Okay, I will give you two minutes before I called you two minutes. Yes, no way Well, I don't want to drag this on too long line Oh, that's what the people came here to see they came here to see tech tips. I'm glad they did But we have other things to shoot today. No, no, no. No, this is the only thing we're shooting today. Okay, there we go Okay, so why is it stuck? Buddy get get it together here Okay What are you stuck on oh? Oh Okay, so here's what happened the ARM Got up too much somehow someone jammed it so it's getting stuck on the fins here See that and this plastic tab right here Is preventing it from moving over enough to not be stuck on the fins? So what we got to do is we just got to kind of force it a little Get oh my god get out of the way Hey Even serious right now buddy. Oh, it's not no. No. No, it's much worse. It's much worse So this piece right here you see that is supposed to be in between here and Instead it's stuck on one of the fins How did this happen How does this one I'm click oh Yeah, there we go. Oh, I could have taken the whole thing off without undoing those screws. There we go. Okay There we go. So now we can bend this fin back You following Andy? This can go in between there where it's supposed to be Okay, so it's got that that slide so you can stretch it over the thing This can come back on there we go All right, take that stock cooler. You just got tech tipped You're fixed Well, it's not necessarily fixed yet. I could still break these little plastic clips while I'm putting it back together There we go there we go That is how it's supposed to work supposed to be able to come down in order to fit over the thing All right Then you got any more merge messages. Yeah, sure. I get a couple here hit me How do you think AMD will compete with the 50 series and the Intel B series? Dude, I Don't know the more I look at it and obviously, you know, I don't know anything about the performance of 50 series yet Certainly nothing concrete. We don't have cards in hand and even if we did I wouldn't be able to tell you anything about them I don't know anything about AMD's upcoming cards other than that. I could probably speculate that just like with the PlayStation 5 Pro we're probably going to see improved upscaling Because AMD and Sony seemed to make it very clear that there was some next-generation Hardware going on there So upscaling and ray tracing I would expect to be very much improved in AMD's next-generation products other than that I don't really know anything concrete about them. There is the rumor that AMD is basically Not gonna bother with the very high-end anymore And they've done that before with some success. They've actually done it twice They skipped having high-end cards in their old 3000 series like Radeon HD 3000 series so their top-end card was the 3870 with that like weird Frankenstein crossfire card that had two 3870s on it acting as their flagship and then they did it again with Polaris So the 500 series Where the 580 or I think technically they had a 590, but it was basically a 580 So the 580 was their top-end card that time and they managed to they managed to by focusing on just kind of that That affordable mainstream price point they managed to gain I don't know a little bit of momentum and they came back with high-end cards, but then They still haven't managed to kind of keep that momentum. So I don't know what to tell you AMD AMD's GPU team just hasn't been able to execute the same way that their CPU team has been able to and without being Embedded in that team. I wouldn't be able to tell you exactly Why that is I can just tell you that what I'm observing from the outside is that they're having a heck of a time with it and it's it's honestly kind of frustrating from my perspective because In some ways, I don't even I don't even think they're doing like a horrible job, right? It's not like they don't have competitive products out there. It's just They just somehow don't seem to be executing they can't get the sales All right, here we go, sorry I There we go, I couldn't reach this screw anymore once that was back on there There we go. All right, Dan hit me again Chuck why does LGT store not wait? No, I wasn't done yet. Never mind. I lied so long story short I suspect strongly That AMD is probably I think we're I think based on the rumors We're probably gonna see a repeat of that strategy where they kind of target a mainstream price point and You know for better or for worse, we're gonna we're gonna see how that goes and then As for Intel, I think they've I don't think they've given any real indication so far that we're gonna see a higher-end arc So it looks like Intel is gonna be gunning for that that value segment that like e-sports gamer segment as for NVIDIA I Think it's very clear that they're extremely comfortable at the at the top of the roost Maybe what we'll see is a future where NVIDIA is completely dominant at the top mostly dominant in the mid-range and then AMD and Intel are kind of fighting it out in the value segment Which I think would be really good for gamers because you'd effectively have some competition everywhere other than the you know 1500 to $2,000 cards where I mean realistically if people can afford that then What do they need the competition for anyway, apparently they can afford that Okay Are you kidding me? I seem to have re broken No, no, no, I will fix it Dan will give me one more merge message and then I will I will quickly I will quickly fix and elate it Why does LTD store not have Canadian dollars for pricing for fellow Canadian shoppers? That's a good question the reason is that all of our costs are in US dollars So all of our pricing is effectively derived from our costs in US dollars Meaning that if we had pricing in Canadian dollars, it would simply be derived from our USD pricing anyway So it doesn't matter So as much as you can kind of look at the pricing and go oh, I could totally afford this if only they priced in Canadian dollars That's not how it works The way it would work is our pricing would just be our pricing in US dollars Times the exchange rate to Canadian dollars because our costs are in US dollars so pricing it in Canadian the one benefit would be that There's no exchange rate on the credit card, which is that is truly a good benefit however maintaining an entire set of different storefront for Canadian dollars when The cold hard truth is that Canadian shoppers are a small small small fraction of our base is Is not something that our poor accounting department wants to deal with at this current time Someday we may open up multi currency It is a feature that Shopify enables, but it is not a free feature that Shopify enables I forget if it's first party or if it's through partners and so it's not It's not necessarily something that will actually result in lower operating costs or lower pricing Because if we're absorbing the cost somewhere either running this feature Then it's either that or you absorb the cost in your credit card fee Basically every time we've run the numbers. It's pretty much come out in the wash and there's not much point in doing it You know what there is a point in doing continuing this bloody PC build our total is now a hundred and fifty dollars that is more than I would want to spend having only two parts, but That's kind of what we're stuck with because modern generation rise and threes don't exist anymore So let's move on and talk about our RAM. Ah, yes this was once again determined by Low to high pricing with a filter for kits that run at at least 3200 megatransitters per second I got to say guys. I am very excited to install the Silicon power x power turbines we've got two 8 gig sticks which I would consider to be pretty Minimal for modern gaming. This is one of those situations where in an ideal world I would actually like very much to be able to put one 16 gig stick into a system like this and know that I'm going to Upgrade to 32 gigs running in dual channel later, but every time I talk about that these days people get so mad at me So there you go guys There's your two 8 gig sticks running in dual channel. You'll get the full performance today But what it means is if you ever wanted to upgrade from 16 gigs to 32 gigs You're gonna have to just chuck these and put in two 16 gig sticks And I do understand that not running in dual channel these days is a significant performance penalty Even compared to you know back in the day when many people used to do that Just throw in one stick for now and then assume you're gonna throw in a second stick later when RAM got cheaper But I Don't know I think personally I would take the compromise especially because like a big part of I Don't know what I because a big part of the reason that we did it back then too was that RAM prices were kind of always going down Whereas now they do mostly always go down, but they're especially for DDR4. They're kind of already rock bottom So there's no like oh, it's gonna get cheaper later so I can upgrade for a fraction of the price So I don't know maybe that's something where for another you know $19 or what would we pay for this thing like 18 bucks or something like that? It was very cheap. It was like 21 I think yeah, so for another 20 bucks. Maybe it's worth it to go $560 and just get all the RAM you need today now storage This one's gonna be a bit of a longer story. See we almost went full Intel for this build Which would have been kind of hilarious doing a $500 value gaming all Intel build. What even timeline am I on? We were thinking maybe we'd use a 12 100 f CPU But the problem is the cheapest Intel motherboards that we could find from reputable brands did not support NVMe SSDs and In present year, I just don't feel right putting a SATA SSD into a brand-new build if I can avoid it There are situations where SATA SSDs make sense say for example if you had already filled your m.2 slot on a motherboard like this Yeah, by all means add a SATA SSD, but if we're talking your boot drive You're gonna want to use an NVMe drive I mean their priced pretty much the same these days because most of the cost is just the flash itself so We did avoid using a SATA SSD and we went with this Patriot P 300 PCA e gen 3 m.2 It's 512 gigs which I mean I consider a great value considering how much Apple would charge for that Yeah, or whatever anyway jokes aside jokes aside I know that 512 gigs is not the most space in the world In fact, I would even go as far as to say it's not really ideal Like it's enough that you could have some smaller games installed and maybe like One top tier game, you know like Final Fantasy 16 you pick that up from green man gaming and then a bunch of smaller games And that's basically all you can do but Your mic Anyway, the point is it's enough that you can at least get started and you can always you know add a hard drive or something Like that on one of the four SATA ports later, although with that said does this case even have hard drive? Okay, well, we'll get to the hard drive conversation later for now Let's get this SSD installed and I think we're due to check out some stuff on green man And let these guys tell us what games we're gonna play later. Absolutely. Okay, cool. Well, let's get the SSD installed real quick here I'm not monitoring chat. Are people enjoying the stream or yeah, seems very Very enjoyable. I hate it. There's a lot of people on YouTube. Oh, shoot. There's a lot of people watching Oh, yeah, that's the thing about streaming earlier in the day. Yeah, there's almost there's 18 and a half thousand people watching Oh, hey, what's up YouTube? All right, there we go boom M.2 installation Man, it's crazy. I never know what the right amount of instruction to give these days is like back in the day We could kind of make the assumption that yeah You know most of our viewers are building a computer for the first time or whatever these days And there could be people that have been watching LTT for 15 years So if I'm sitting here going yeah, I take your I'm about to drive and put it in at an angle Make sure it's snug put it down to in the screw like those guys are gonna get bored But then we also get feedback from people that are building a computer for the first time that are like whoa Whoa Dude slow down. I got no idea what's going on I almost wonder if there'd be some value to like Like creating a for basics Channel or something like that because we we tried to do some some basic stuff on the main channel back in the day and it just Did not fly The audience Like hated that I mean even the more recent how to build a PC last guide you'll ever need those videos Bomb out of the gate and then it's not till YouTube's like like recommended or up next and all their various Algorithms pick it up that they start to to get anybody watching them. All right Are we just going on to green man give me do you have screen cap like should I go do this over there? We can if you'd like I was planning on you just doing on your laptop you picking three And then we'll do a poll on Floatplane for chat to pick one. I get to pick three. Yeah So let's look through three games that are available on green man. Okay, cool. Yeah, we can do that All right, cool. So Andy. Yeah, I guess I'll just turn this around and we'll hope that I don't get any Notifications that are highly confidential by switching my teams to do not disturb. There we go. I do okay, is it just me but Like managing my status on chat apps. I can't Okay, okay, it's not just me like I literally Can't like I see people that are like they have their status set for their vacation They've got their status set when they go home at the end of the day They got their status set when they're in a meeting. They're on a conference call. I'm like Like guys is it full plane chat, is it just me It's Floatplane chat working it is oh Couple people said they agree. Is it doing the thing? Oh No, I just have to refresh the page. Okay, I'm gonna refresh the page because I Do not have enough brain cycles for that like I have no yeah, not just you okay Thank you. And yes. Yes, I know that you can have automatic ones But that only helps if you happen to be on your meeting in that app Like I don't know and I'm sure you could build automations for like your calendar or whatever But I got to tell you with the number of people that have access to my calendar My calendar is a disaster like I would be in do not disturb or like in a meeting or in a shoot All the time and I don't even blame the people that that helped me with my calendar Like I get it because a lot of the time but the amount of time that I take to do something is unpredictable Like for instance, I'm doing a gaming stream where I'm building like a basic computer with like six parts We've been streaming for over half an hour and all I've done is put a cooler on a motherboard and CPU and a RAM That's that's like nothing. I mean look poor Elijah is dying over here. He's dying Yeah, because his boss is gonna be like yo Elijah. What the heck? Why is the stream taking so long? Don't you don't you make sure that coolers work before you give them to Linus? Do you have any idea how important Linus is? See, I I never have those conversations because I think that's silly. I love fixing things But there's there's people there's people that have like performance targets to hit and they're all like Elijah Why are you taking so long? Why are we we need more Linus time? See you can see he's that to be fair This stream has a very high average viewership right now, so I'm good. My metrics are hit. I'm good Do you have metrics for that like I don't think for like we're basing things off some views and like how videos perform Oh, really? I think in the long term. We'll see how this stream does as a vaude. Oh, interesting But as of right now, this is there's a lot of people watching so this is good I know so little about how that stuff works these days now, but I don't actually have any direct reports So I just kind of stand here and I do my thing I fix coolers What am I supposed to be doing green man gaming? Oh, yeah green man gaming our sponsor our sponsor green man gaming All right, let's go check it out Yeah, I can brighten the screen. Whatever you want Andy. Whatever's good for you all right, oh Holiday sale well, let's jump right into that obviously right and maybe maybe Floatplane chat can give us some Suggestions you guys don't get to pick my three, but you can give some suggestions for my three Okay, I still Have never played a God of War game, which is extremely embarrassing What kind of game should we play? Oh Dude Civ 6 is 20 Canadian dollars. That's like 15 you 14 US dollars or something like that. What is this? What's what's anthology is like anthology like not good or something? Like what happens if I switch to one of the other ones? Oh Lordy, okay, so so what makes it anthology guys help me out here Seven is just around the corner that makes sense. Yeah, but I heard civ 6 is really good. I haven't actually played it Anthology includes all the civ 6 content released including the game the 60 LC packs. Oh, this is like the whole thing Okay, I mean that seems like a W right Cool what else we got here That's my hockey not working alt left arrow. Hello, buddy. Okay, cool. Did that not go that did not go in the cart Okay, that's fine. We'll add this part here. There we go. Oh now I've got to all balls I'll take a copy. Yeah, I'm I'll figure it. I'll figure that out later. Okay. What else we got here Bungie holiday, so they didn't make games other than like destiny Like what what what's in here, huh? We got destiny to the witch queen destiny to the light and darkness Destiny to the final shape and annual pass destiny to the final shape destiny to shadow keep pack destiny to lightfall destiny to legacy collection destiny to bungee 30th anniversary pack destiny to beyond the light pack At this point did I call it or what like people are thinking this is sponsored by destiny to at this point It's sponsored by green man. Okay. Yeah, I'm not even I'm not even buying that Okay, let's find some let's find some crazy deals Games over 75% off Mmm killer seven that's tempting for 10 bucks What else we got what's all the zombie stuff zombies on a plane Zombie army for is there is it our zombies trending right now is our zombies back They never left Linus you suck at parking sounds fun. I Think I'd be down for this. I do kind of suck at parking the world's most extreme parking experience Sure Sure, let's do it Let's do it. Okay. You suck at parkings in the cart Let's show some more results. Let's find some deals here boys Let's find one more and then we'll get chat to pick between those three civ six you suck at parking and You know what I have never played an x-com game Which as someone who loved Final Fantasy Tactics and generally loves tactics games As if anybody ever put an actual real date in here There we go Is sort of embarrassing I should I should probably I should probably have played x-com So I'm gonna I'm gonna check out this x-com collection Hello continue Does it know I'm lying There's no way oh, it's just taking a sec, okay, all right, that's gonna be my three That's gonna be my three. Would you like to do a poll? We'll do a poll on Floatplane Oh, see which one they pick cuz we won't have time to do all three Okay, so we should see what you let them pick let them pick two, okay Also, you know what maybe throw God of War in there because I Personally kind of want to see like a modern triple a game. I'm just I didn't add it to my card on green man because I already own it Let me actually let me make sure Let's see. Let me see which God of War I own I bought one at some point because I was like, okay This is embarrassing. I haven't played a God of War game ever and then I just never played it So let me see which one I have and then oh My god, I don't have how do I not have my own steam account signed into this computer This is what happens when you are streaming live and you don't There we go, all right cool I am now signed in but yeah, let's throw let's throw God of War in there And then I'll just buy it from green man now if I don't have the right one so you can go ahead and put the poll up All right, so on Floatplane. There's a poll top two win God of War civilization six you suck at parking or XCOM So everyone on Floatplane can vote Kind of want to try you suck at parking too. I don't know I might just hang around and play games for a bit after I build my computer I mean, that's my reward for building a new computer as I get to play games, right? Well, we're actually planning a stream We're doing a stream. Oh, that's right. We are doing a stream We can promote the stream So just like we did back when Intel launched their arc alchemist first generation cards where we sat down and we played Basically any game you guys asked us to play on arc to see whether it would work Or if there'd be any weird artifacts or anything like that We're gonna be doing the same thing again this time with battle mage And we've got some ideas to kind of streamline it So our goal is to get through like double to three times as many games I have no idea if we're gonna be able to pull it off because between unskippable loading scenes and Actually getting to the point in the game where you take control of the character and like all that kind of stuff There could be some there could be some challenges But we're gonna do our best we're gonna try okay, so no I only have God of War I don't have God of War Ragnarok, so I'm gonna go ahead and just add that to my cart real quick on green man Thanks again green man gaming for sponsoring the stream Do I have any like talking points for them or anything like that? It's just their holiday sale till January 10th Go check it out. They're adding more games Up until that date as well, so keep checking back in you know every other day or so heck. Yeah Okay, do I want the digital deluxe? I don't think I care I could just get the regular God of War Ragnarok right I save eight bucks Okay, cool View cart wait Which which board did I say I had you wanted God of War civilization six you suck at parking and an ex-com game Oh, that's right. Yeah, and it was an ex-com anthology. Okay, that actually looks like a pretty good deal Okay, that's the one that I'm missing. I must not have pressed that. All right. Why don't we continue our build here? Elijah can you can you check this out? Yes, sir. All right. Thank you there ex-com the ultimate collection That's the one I want looks like you suck at parking and God of War are winning right now anyways Really? That's what chat wants us to play. Yeah, but this is 89% off So I just want to buy it anyway because I don't have any ex-com games. Okay, okay So if you could do that and here's my wallet yippee. See you later Well, I'm gonna buy myself some games now, right? No, okay All right, let's move on to our case This is another area where you could probably save some money compared to our build whether that's just getting a case for free from a friend Or a computer shop or even a recycling pile or whether that's I mean, yeah Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist We have had a lot of success over the years getting free cases. In fact, I don't know if I can think of a scrapyard wars where When you account for the other value of stuff that we bought like there have definitely been situations where we have exchanged money and Got in a case But I don't think that either Luke or I have ever actually Paid for the case as part of that if you get what I mean Like we were already getting a deal on the hardware itself and by the way There's a case or we get them for free getting a free case is such an like ultimate level hack for getting a better deal on a computer because This case cost us. What was it like 40 bucks or something like that 35 bucks? Okay 35 bucks and it is Boy, is it ever? Unexceptional, okay, and if you think about that 35 bucks even though that's the cheapest case we can find is still about What does that work out to about seven to eight percent of our budget? So if we just didn't buy a case, that's the equivalent of everything else we buy being on sale You know being seven to eight percent off and us being able to get better hardware elsewhere Anyway, because the goal of this build was not to you know scrapyard wars it the goal of this build was to build a Brand-new computer for around 500 bucks We did not go for the second-hand case option But this is a this is one of the big ways that you guys could definitely stretch a dollar this by the way No, I am not exceptionally strong this case is just exceptionally light This is the DIY PC s 08 dash G Shockingly it has a tempered glass side panel. It actually has kind of a pretty looking paint job It's just the it's just the features and the room to work where it's going to be a little on the lacking side there's also areas where just like I don't know how much money this saved them But it cheaps out in ways that I don't think I have ever seen before check this out. Check this out So where the IO shield clips in okay normally you would have like a solid edge along each side Not on the DIY PC s 08 G. No, sir Here you get a solid piece on that side You get a little tab on the bottom to click it into a little tab on the top. You see that little tab Andy Okay, you get a little tab on the top and then on this side They took four little full d tabs and you've got those four little full d tabs to kind of to kind of click it against I don't even think no, I don't even think they play a role in holding it into place So you're just using the tabs on the bottom and the side to hold it in as far as I can. Oh, no, no, they do they do Yeah, so you just got four little tabs there that hold it into place I mean realistically once the motherboard's in it's not going anywhere But you got this like weird gap that I have never seen before See this This This gap right here. You see that? Yeah weird, right? What Good tempered glass though doesn't break Nice that was close Uh, it's got um two front usb 2 ports Front usb 3 front panel audio Apparently it has support for 200 millimeter radiators. I mean other than just being like the cheapest thing I've ever seen It's not bad Not bad for features. Let's see what the build experience is like Elijah, did you already put in the standoffs that I need? Correct. Oh, wow. What a guy I was actually going to go down memory lane with you Linus You're gonna go down memory lane. Okay. Well, why don't you come over here on camera if you're gonna do that Do you remember the last time we tried to save money on a pc case? I do Oh god, I brought it with us today. Oh, that's wonderful Thank you. Elijah truly it is a work of art that we are unworthy of so yes You can get a pc case for cheaper And it requires some work Dan might actually have some footage from that video that he can throw up on screen here Where we butchered the heck out of this case in order to make it fit modern hardware Oh my goodness not just fit modern hardware Have adequate cooling for modern hardware. Look at those speed holes Look at that fire extinguisher that you're holding Because it started to smoke when you were using the grinder on it but look Yeah, isn't it great and to be clear. Okay, not every older case is going to be all solid panels On all sides and require this much tlc to get any cooling and even if it does Hey, you can always just take off the side panel and take off the front panel But realistically even spending What do you spend 35 bucks on this? Yeah. Yeah, even spending 35 dollars on a case is um Going to get you something that's going to look a little nicer and a little more modern I actually um coming around to this thing. You know what I miss though I miss like antech having killer Case power supply combos like the antech sonata For instance was just it was awesome because you got a decent enough case You got a quality power supply and it was at a really really attractive price having to buy those parts separately not in a bundle Basically as a requirement like I can't think of anyone other than like Does like raid max or logisys still do case power supply combos? I just I can't think of anyone who makes a power supply You would actually want to put in your system that does case power supply combos anymore What's out there? Is there anything still? I know logisys still does logisys still does. Yeah, I don't know about raid max though No offense to logisys. I would not consider putting a logisys power supply on my computer I'm sorry. It's just not really an option. This is this is tech tips not tech disaster show All right, we're doing not bad Looking pretty good. Apparently I'm supposed to do a merge message Yeah, sure. I've got a couple here hit me Dan. Hey Linus is a darn tough fan Have you also had issues with their socks being overly snug and difficult to put on? Is that something you have found with the upcoming LTT socks any advice? Oh Okay, am I rocking the darn tuts today? Oh, nope. I have prototype socks. Never mind. Ignore those I actually consider that a feature not a bug I actually like that long after their first wear because oh man Okay, I don't want this to get you know You know into like kinks or anything like that But I can't think of too many things that I like more than putting on a brand new pair of socks like so good The point is the fact that darn tough socks stay like tight So when you put them on they're like, you know, they're They're like it's like a hug for your foot. I actually like that. I consider that a feature our socks would definitely have Like a like a like a tighter kind of fit Um, but there's actually practical reasons for that as well I find that they work almost as like a type of compression sock for me. So I I I wear the like the high ones and I find that when I'm doing sports like whether I'm you know running or Playing badminton or whatever else. I used to get shin splints back when I would wear like lower socks So I wouldn't wear tight socks. So I finally actually work as a compression sock for me and uh, yeah I consider it a feature My understanding is that tight socks can help help prevent like blood pooling as well. So Get used to it would be the best advice that I can that I can give you Oh, yeah, especially especially when traveling Yeah, Andy Andy is an expert on the dangers of traveling these days and I'm not going to get into any more detail than that because That would involve his personal information, which I have not asked him if I can disclose but Um, yeah compression socks on the plane very good idea Now it's time to talk power supply. This Was probably the most challenging component of this build to choose because pretty much everything else was chosen for us The arc b580 is the only reasonable value GPU at that that we can you know target this price point with we went with the cheapest motherboard We went with the cheapest reasonable CPU the cheapest RAM the cheapest SSD Then the cheapest case like everything else. We were just picking what we can afford for our $500 budget For the power supply you guys can probably already see That we spent a little extra on it We could have gone with a $20 special from someone like logisys or coolmax Even oh over here even this smart 500 watt from thermal take Would have saved us enough that we could have between this and the motherboard gotten down to our $500 budget We could have done that But the thing is lucas from the lab He's a lot better than me I mean, I don't know. I think if push came to shove I could probably find somewhere to hide that like he couldn't fit And he couldn't like get to me Either way, it's not ideal So we were forced to choose something that he approved of and that's why we stretched our budget here And we picked up the minimum that he recommended the Corsair cx 550 watt bronze It's about $60 a lot more than I would want to spend. That's about 12 percent of our total budget But it occasionally goes on sale for about 10 bucks off There's another thing to note about this. It is not the full 600 watts that Intel recommends for this GPU But we talked to lucas about it and he said that realistically that seems to come down to the arc b580 having somewhat higher transients and as long as you've got a quality 150 watt unit Like a passable quality unit. It should be fine and that's what we've got here So let's go ahead and get this installed So thank you lucas and the rest of the Labs team for the hard work that you guys do to make sure that whatever we're recommending Even if we're on a tight budget is something that we can stand behind that is not going to fail you When you're in the middle of a session All right, let's get this bad boy installed. We got four. Oh, I guess I got options, right? Um, does this have a filtered intake on the bottom? Wow, you know what for 35 bucks? I'm actually kind of liking this case. Elijah It's not the world's prettiest filter or anything like that But she's got a a filtered bottom intake and raised feet So even if we're on like a medium pile carpet our power supply is not going to suffocate Kind of i'm kind of coming around to this case. Elijah All right, this doesn't mean that I want to spend money on a case when I have a $500 budget It just means that if I have to spend money on a case for my $500 budget, I consider this one Acceptable you haven't cable managed yet. So we'll see that's that's true That is that is true words that you have coming from your mouth. Um, do you have my laptop? Yeah, sorry I was hoping to look at slow playing chat, but I can't Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't want to interrupt you Hey Linus Elijah and Sir Besser Do you still value and use mechanical gadgets like mechanical watches and log cameras? Or FX racks over digital ones. It's sad to see these industries fading Oh boy Man, I got to tell you I don't personally have a ton of nostalgia for analog devices like I I grew up with a rotary telephone and the second I got a touch tone phone. I was like, yo This is better And then when I had a touch tone phone with a wire the second I got a 900 megahertz cordless. I was like, yo Drop kick boom see a later old phone and then and then when I got a cellular telephone I was like no way. I don't have to be at home within range of my base station to use this dude progress I love progress dude. My first camera I owned was a digital camera. That was my first Hold on trying to think if there's anything before that No, I don't think so My first major expense Growing up was I bought myself a digital camera and I think it was Grade 10. This is before I bought myself a pc So I loaded my photos from that digital camera my power shot a 20 So this is like 500 bucks or whatever. It's a lot of money for me at the time. I was I was in high school I I loaded my photos from my power shot a 20 onto my pentium I was either a 166 or a 90 or something like that like I I had like an actual crap tier computer. It was more important to me to get a digital camera And I didn't want like I forget what it was even called There was like this weird little like really cheap one that was like, you know 144p like weird video thing that I got for a christmas present and I asked for a gift receipt I took it back. I got like a hundred dollars credit or something like that towards that power shot a 20 That was like my first major paid for myself expense and I have never looked back at film and gone. Wow That would be so much better Not once I'm so sorry Um, I'm just I'm the kind of person that when I'm evaluating something I'm all about okay, but how much does it cost me tomorrow? Like what's my what's my per shot cost with this thing? Um, and it's not like I don't see the value of like developed photos It's it's a lot of fun to go back and look at old scrapbooks and stuff like that. I think that you know, polaroids invite They invite fun, you know, there's just something about it that is that is fun, but I just I I can't get over the the the calculating part of my brain that goes $1.20 $1.20 $1.20 And maybe maybe I'm just not a fun person Maybe that's what it comes down to because I feel the same way going to like a commercial paintball field I'm like nickel nickel nickel nickel nickel nickel, you know, like I just I I have a really hard time with things that have a continuous cost It's one of the reasons that I love pc gaming so much or at least I used to before everything was gacha Um, because you could buy that game once and get so much value out of it through You know the incredible modding community or through multiplayer and and and always changing experiences and um It's one of the reasons that I just Never understood like even when xbox 360 was like the king and and was incredible. I was like I'm sorry. Sorry. It has You like pay to play online like every month What like I I Okay, like I guess See you later. I'll get that game eventually anyway and in some cases I was wrong Um, but in a lot of cases Yeah, I was uh, I was I was less wrong So back to your question film cameras It's not even about the inconvenience of developing the film for me because if anything I think that inconvenience is actually It can actually be a good thing or like the less inconvenience more ritual, right? Going there getting the putting in the film for development and you know, whatever else and it forces you to do it Uh, because otherwise there's no way to ever see the pictures Whereas with digital you can kind of like quickly look at it on your phone and then you never bother You never get around to it. And so in some ways I actually think the convenience of film is Sort of superior in the actual experience of doing it Because you might actually you might actually follow through and develop something I think printing things is really inconvenient and that's why almost nobody does it um, but I just can't get over the the in my mind impracticality of paying Like a significant amount of money for every single shot I take even if it's like out of focus or crappy I like being able to go click click click click click click and hope that I get a good one I take a lot of my pictures of kids and animals though. So like Film is especially wasteful when your kids are making stupid faces or whatever else We actually just shot a ShortCircuit yesterday rounding up instant cameras. So like instax polaroid What's their nuts kodak has kodak has one that has like a little built-in printer in it and stuff like that And it's funny because they totally knew their audience when they prepped the video They prepared like a like a cost per shot for me as part of you know, evaluating which ones Which ones I like to actually co-host it with Yvonne as part of Promoting Yvonne week on Floatplane where it's going to be. I think there's an interview with her She doesn't meet the cats where she shows off all of our cats. So we're going to have that at lng.gg slash Floatplane very very shortly Sorry, I'm just wiring up the front panel stuff. I realize I'm just building a computer not actually talking about it here They're our 24 pin power connector our 4 pin power connector up here Got our front usb 3 front panel connectors All of this is this is nice like I remember old budget boards There's no way they would have you know all the connectors silkscreened on there So you don't have to look at the manual or anything like that. This is actually perfectly Acceptably adequate to build in I have no real complaints so far hd audio Boom. All right. That's it. Our front panel connectors are done Would you like to know the two games that won? I I would like to know the two games that won. Yeah hit me It was almost 50 for you suck at parking nice and then god of war god of war Okay, we have to get this built because we're gonna have to make sure those are installed because I didn't know that Those were the two that we're gonna win so Well, uh, you could start uh downloading god of war now, right? Possibly I onto a game drive. Do you have a game drive? No. Oh, all right cool Now for the moment We've all been waiting for the reason that we are able to make a kick-ass gaming computer for our console like price The Intel arc b580 if you guys haven't seen our full review of this card It is a must watch But the tldr is that it's out for as little as 250 us dollars and in our suite of games It was able to handle 1080p ultra settings and never drop its average FPS below 60 To say that this is the type of game changing disruptive GPU that the entry gaming market needed would be a gross Understatement the fact that we're even calling $250 entry level is such a mind-blowing thing to me It says so much about the way that NVIDIA and AMD have abandoned budget gamers Like you used to be able to get something not garbage from NVIDIA and ati for like 100 bucks in change Nowadays cards for 110 dollars actually, you know what this is worth This is worth pausing not talking about arc for a second and firing up new egg again. Check this out you guys We did this as part of the uh as part of the prep for the video Okay, here. I'll just throw this on On the ground Ah Okay components and storage GPU and graphics card devices. Okay. Check this out gaming video cards Here we go sort by lowest price Okay, let's take out refurbished. Let's see if I can find the refurbished tag this time condition. Here we go Maybe this is where I was able to find it new All right Oh This is actually not that bad. Okay, you can get a 6500 xt. Hey, where was that where was that stupid junk from NVIDIA that we Well, I haven't seen anything from NVIDIA. Uh, let's see. Let's see what we can find from NVIDIA We're all the way up to 170 dollars. We haven't found a single NVIDIA card yet. Here you go. You can find some Okay, how is this new are they still selling 30 50s? This has one egg I'm not even sure if I believe that we're all the way up to 180 dollars So apparently we have to change our filter to components and storage Just GPU's What's up this one? Yeah, there you go This is a 1030 if you want an NVIDIA card for like 100 bucks in change You are literally getting what is this like a seven year old GPU or six year old GPU or something like that The architecture was eight years old. I believe An eight year old architecture like guys this design is older than my youngest child Pretty much only suitable for outputting a secondary display AMD a little bit better but this 1080p ultimate 1080p Did I say ultimate I meant ultra the point is it's got 22nd generation battle mage xe course 20 ray tracing units Clock speeds of up to 26 70 megahertz and a total board power of 190 watts not to mention that they gave a huge fu to the incumbents by equipping it with 12 gigs of vram for those of you who are out of the loop That's a really big deal and the conversation has been going on for a little while But obviously it hasn't been going on enough to reach NVIDIA's ears back when they released the 40 60 There was a lot of conversation around the $200 paywall that they put in front of getting more than eight gigs of RAM because at I believe it was 399 you could get the 40 60 with eight gigs At 499 you could get the 40 60 ti But still with eight gigs of RAM and you had to go all the way up to 5 99 to get the 40 60 ti 16 gig Which was functionally pretty much the same thing as the regular ti But just with a modern amount of vram on it and there was no 40 60 16 gig so They had a 40 60 starting at 400 dollars But if you wanted something that was going to be able to keep up in modern games You had to spend 600 dollars which Is more than this entire computer Even after we blew our budget Now in fairness those cards have come down a little bit But anyone who invested in them got a really awful value We predicted and many predicted at the time that not having 16 gigs or at least more than eight gigs of vram Was going to be a problem very soon and it turns out that we are Very soon a clock later and it's already a problem indiana jones in the great circle has a clear performance penalty from using an eight gig card And it's only been What has it been like a year and a half since the 40 60 came out? I'm trying to remember what the actual What the actual timeline is elijah. Do you mind checking the release date of the 40 60 series? Yes, sir real quick Thank you so much in the meantime. I'm going to look for a 632 k screw here It looks like it was june 2023 era. Oh my yeah, so a year and a half ago. Oh man I'm good Nice nailed it kill Linus. Anyway, the point is It has issues with eight gig cards and that is in spite of it being an invidious sponsored title So you go and you buy one of invidious basic, you know ray tracing ready cards or whatever And you're going to have issues with a game that comes out just a year and a half later Anyway, we've got our arc battle mage in here. Let's go ahead and get this plugged in Here we go and a boop And that's it That my friends is how you build a pc Now this is not a perfect pc. In fact, I would say that it's a pretty safe bet that We would need to add at least I'd say An intake fan here I'd say once we've got an intake fan on the front to use this vent draw some fresh air across our GPU This exhaust and that intake working together is probably enough But worst-case scenario we are on a tight budget. We have 500 bucks to spend we can always add a fan later and we can run our side panel off until our you know our next Lawn mowing session or you know, whatever it takes for us to get like, you know eight bucks for a fan off of Tmu or whatever Elijah do you want to grab a monitor and let's uh, let's get this thing going Oh, I guess I should do a little bit of cable management first. Do you mind grabbing a couple zip ties real quick? Okay, in the meantime Dan, do you want to hit me with a merge message? Yeah, sure Doing a bit laggy on the stream here. Hold on. Let me just pause this Hi del we're stocking my gift card stockpile after the holiday buying Have you ever got refused tech support because of a so-called incompatible hardware like having g4 snot quadro? Oh Uh, oh, oh, I mean we ran into something like this very recently I don't know about refused tech support, but we've definitely been told Yeah, there's there's nothing we can do for you. You've got the wrong thing in situations where I don't personally feel that That makes a lot of sense. We talked about this when we were looking at that that spatial Labs stereoscopic 3d monitor that that acer co developed And they have a commercial version of it that for whatever reason Is locked from running games like you you you can't you you I I understand. Okay. Yeah, fine I can't run the commercial stuff on the the gaming version of it. No problem But why on earth would you tell me that I'm not allowed to game on my like like professional grade one? Who are you to tell me? I'm not allowed to play video games on this thing when it costs so much more Like the one that costs more should just it should be everything that the cheaper one is And more not just I'm not going to go buy another one to play video games Um, so I thought that was I thought that was pretty bananas. That one was pretty recent I'm trying to think of anything personally though and nothing really springs to mind for me Elijah, have you ever run into anything like that? Sorry, I missed the merge message. Sorry, you bought the wrong you bought the wrong product I can't I can't help you with that and their example was something like, you know running g4 strivers on quadro Just like artificial software lockdowns I feel like I probably have had a story when I used to do it support Like I've reached out to the company that made the software that the company I was dealing with was having issues and they're like you're using unsupported hardware and I'm like your Your specification was Windows 7 or newer. So like what do you mean? I'm using unsupported hardware And they were like, well, it's Windows 11 And I was like, well, that's newer But it's like, oh, it hasn't been verified yet And it was like I had those examples when Windows 11 was just rolling out and we were deploying it on sites, but I've definitely run into um Oh, dude, actually that reminds me. Yeah, I've run into quite a few where they won't install Because you have the wrong version of Windows But it like totally doesn't matter and once you force it to install it totally works. Yeah, I Hate that just try to install and if it doesn't work or whatever you can tell me it's unsupported during the installer But do not outright block me from installing it. That's just That's just wasting my time That's all you're that's literally all you're doing is wasting my time because I'm gonna figure out I'm gonna go find the file and I'm gonna go, you know fill in the versions of Windows that you support or whatever I'm just gonna I'm gonna go fix it anyway So all you're doing is making me do that which I don't like to do The worst part was doing tech support for companies that are using older hardware Whether it was like a specific CAD license or something that like only worked on xp Yeah, and then obviously I can't phone the company and be like, hey, I want this to work on Windows 11 So I have to like figure it out I have to fight through either registry or other setting changes to get it to work because my client that we're serving Refuses to change to anything newer, which is fair You know what and valid in some cases Especially with stuff like CAD software. It's super valid. Yeah, like that machine just works panel by the way Prove it Okay, anyways that machine just works And their technicians like They're they they don't they don't care. Oh, yeah, they don't care about Windows or whatever They just need to get their job done. No, I get it man. I get it I mean, I think a lot of the time Our crowd right forgets that for a lot of people a computer is not fun It is not a toy. It is just a tool It is just like their pair of pliers. It is just like their, you know work Smock it is it is nothing but a tool to a means to an end Um, and for folks like that. Yeah, I get it. You don't want to just like go Upgrading software and oh and in a lot of cases One of the reasons that they're locked into that older version of the software is not because a new one doesn't exist Or that the new one doesn't have features they'd like to use But because the new one has switched to a subscription model That was the biggest complaint always. I'm not paying for the new version Because I owned this one and this one does everything I need it to do. Yeah So why but they get a pop-up every four minutes or every time they boot it Hey, have you considered subscribing to the new one? You'll get all these fancy features. Yeah, I have considered it. Yeah The answer is no Um Where'd that spritzer bottle that you had go there's one behind the arc. Nice. That's what you're talking about Yeah, well, I didn't really want to I so but this will work. Okay. Well, I just want I want a nice clean side panel I wanted to look her best, you know Nice clean looking her best side panel for 500 bucks. Hey 500 bucks, dude Is so exciting for me to be able to build a 500 dollar computer again. Yeah, like this used to be my job Back when I worked at NCIX I was in charge of like the PC configurations So I would I would you know go and I would try and come up with Creative ways to save a dollar here and there and like try to build the best thing that I can for the money Um, did we lose a grommet? From the side panel. Maybe when it was already gone when I grabbed it from inventory. Oh got it. Okay. So it's not our fault We didn't buy this brand new for the stream. We're sorry guys But we already had it in inventory and it happened to be 35 dollars. So it matched our criteria Got it makes sense. All right, let's pop this bad boy on here Oh, yeah, oh wait. Oh, she's uh She's not symmetrical Which is fine. I can work with this There we go. I was gonna say is it because you dropped it. Did it bend? No Elijah Uh, Dan want to hit me? Sure. We've seen quite a few of wacky fan configurations from Alex and the team But when are you guys going to power a whole pc with the back feeding from spinning pc fans with an air compressor? Oh Wow, what would that even look like? So we'd have to get some kind of fixed voltage out of the fans Which means we'd have to spin them all at kind of like the same speed We'd have to Oh my god, that would be I don't know if we're gonna do that Yeah Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if we're gonna do that. The answer is never. Yeah, that's it's a cool idea But I think it's the kind of cool idea that as long as Alex doesn't watch the stream. We're never gonna have to do All right timestamp dude 500 bucks Okay, 540 but we could have cheaped out on our motherboard and cheaped out on our power supply 500 dollar class Because we spend what 4 540 bucks, right? Yeah, uh, yes, it came out to 540 total freaking awesome What card did you use? I just realized I gave my personal card to vans for I grabbed the first one that was in there No Wait, what this one I grabbed the one that looked like a bank card This one here Yeah Yvonne is gonna kill me that's a usd card the transaction was in CAD I didn't well Do I spoil it that I didn't actually purchase with the card because we already have the games on our account Oh, I just did that for the fun of it because you gave me the card. I was like, okay. Well, I'm not gonna actually buy the cards I was just gonna put them on my account. Oh Okay, well, you're good. I didn't say buy the cards. I meant by the games. Okay. I didn't actually spend any money Oh, I took it off camera because I was like, oh, it's probably just for the bit I was like ha ha buy the games. I was like, well, I'm not gonna actually dig through his wallet. No, I was I was I don't fake things on camera. I want to play those games. I want I want the game I'm not saying you don't want the games. I just you gave me your credit card. I'm like, I don't feel comfortable typing this in Stop staring at me honestly stop just you're the one who's awkward All right, bucko I don't know man. I don't see I don't I don't think it's a big deal. Oh, hey, we don't have a desk pad. Oh We do have our mod mat though. This is coming. This is going to be available on the store Next year, right? I don't know if signups are ready yet, but this is coming out around mid january signups are up Oh, okay. So then signups for the mod mat are up. Yeah, I don't know if this is the Actual final version It looks pretty close. It's really close mod mats freaking awesome. I'm extremely proud of the team It is class leading in every way price quality. I I believe the Value of the information that's on it for like a typical pc builder really really excited about this thing we worked with the We we worked with the creator of the patented mod mat mod bright In order to bring this to market. So everything's kind of Buttoned up there really really excited And like way more affordable than a lot of the other options that are out there right now Pretty cool I still wouldn't recommend at a five hundred dollar pc budget Blowing money on a on a mod mat to build it But especially as you're getting up into sort of higher prices where That would not be a huge amount of your budget and wouldn't really cost you a significant amount of performance It's not a bad idea and comes with an anti-static wrist strap and all that as well, of course Wow, the stream latency is really low these days Did they uh, did they decrease the stream latency on Floatplane? I have no idea probably maybe like check this out That's just like a few seconds. That's really good great job guys. Thank you cool All right, what do you think Elijah? Oh no, I whammyed it Oh, we closed the side I closed the side panel. Oh, we're gonna be here for three hours There's absolutely no shot that this thing powers on on the first go Wait, wait, if we reopen the side if we reopen this now that doesn't count easily ruined it It doesn't count once you close the side panel you have jinxed it officially Sorry james Yeah, we really did try to get this done in a reasonable amount of time. That's okay. These guys like hanging out with us Anyway, why isn't he plugging in? Dan hit me with a merge message. Sure The power cable's not plugging in Yes, sir Go ahead Dan has any discussion happened on bringing back the black shaft for the original gangster screwdriver Now that the precision has proven itself mine was stolen recently and I love the black finish compared to silver um This is not for this monitor. It was with the monitor. That's why I I can't I don't know what to tell you They don't go together Um If we can find a treatment that is black enough And strong enough and durable enough and all the things that we need We would love to do a black shaft screwdriver but We haven't yet And I wouldn't say that the precision is necessarily Um Just just because we've done a black precision driver doesn't mean that we would do a black shafted regular screwdriver There's a couple reasons for that one is that the precision driver is not the kind of thing that we expect people to just Huck in their tool bag And you know get you know beat up Um, we expect it to kind of live in a case whether it's ours or one from iFix it or someone like that We expect it to kind of be cared for a bit more and mostly just hang out in your hands or on your desk on your project mat or whatever Number two is that the screwdriver is not even made of this screwdriver is not made of the same material This is anodized aluminum. So anodizing is an excellent high durability finish It's still going to chip occasionally if you know you'd ding it on something or whatever You can say I got a little one in mine, but because it actually transforms the top layer of the aluminum It's it's really really really strong Um our shaft on the screwdriver is stainless steel. It's not Anodized it's not anodizable Can you anodize steel? Either way, it's definitely a different process and we have not found that it is good enough Why don't you just like make it out of burzum or something? All right, we are not exploring exotic materials for screwdriver shafts anytime soon We've had enough nightmares with bad screwdriver shafts. All right, let's fire this thing up. Do you get it? You ready black metal? Is it gonna work? Here we go A fan is spinning. Yeah, that's a good sign Got that RGB man AMD and Intel better together You know, it's crazy five years ago. Those would have been swapped. I know, right? Wow, you went really high end on the uh monitor Elijah The power cable is not on the shelf there. So I just grabbed the next monitor. Okay. Well, that's quite the monitor We've got like a qto led what looks like. I think this is the 14. It's just the 4k. What Elijah? What the heck dude? I think it is just the 4k 240 Hertz. Yeah, are you are you high? Sorry, I don't think I'm allowed to ask you that. I don't think I can answer that Why? Don't look in my eyes All right down one hit me with another We lost your mic Hey booted though. Okay, hit me. Oh, hey. Hey. Hey look That that's good That's good. That's what we want Dan do you want to hit me with another merge message while I reboot this thing so that I can actually dial in the RAM timings? Sure has Sorry, no or did that one greetings from colorado Linus What do you think about 3d movies watched through a vr headset and the complete lack of services to watch 3d movies nowadays? Any thoughts on completely vr movies? Oh, okay. I haven't tried Apples vr movie experience thing whatever it's called. We're on the submarine. I really want to but after the review of the apple vision pro I Brought it back to work and then I've never touched it again I've been meaning to grab it and bring it home and try that just because I was called submerged or something like that I think Anyway, I want to try it. It sounds super cool. I don't have an opinion until I actually try it But what from what I've heard it is super cool As for watching 3d movies in vr Awesome. I mean that is where you're going to get the best possible display Um, but for me It's the same thing again that I brought up in my review of the apple vision pro here hello Yeah, I'll do the Windows thing. Okay. Yes, sir. Or not. I was I was gonna help you like yeah, just hold shift when we're starting yeah, um What was I saying 3d movies? Yeah, 3d movies So it's the same thing that I brought up in the review of the apple vision pro right where It's the best way to watch big screen content As long as you're watching it by yourself and for a lot of people that's appealing for me. It's not I almost Never I almost never watch a movie by myself um, especially not Oh, I'm trying to remember Trying to remember like if I'm just like watching something on my phone I will Um, or if like I'm watching something at the gym I will but those are not things that I have a vr headset on for like if I'm at the gym I am at the gym. I'm not wearing a vr headset and if I'm If I'm watching something on my phone, it's because I'm in the bath or I'm like otherwise Not able to be like bolted into something So vr headsets. They just don't really they don't really have a place in my daily life other than beat saber just exercise Unfortunately, I love vr. It's I love immersive experiences. I think it's super cool I'm so so so ready for a replacement to the index. Actually, I gotta try the I gotta try the big screen beyond with their audio strap. I still haven't done that. Let me know how it is I've been meaning to also we have one of those vario or whatever We have one of those vario headsets that I really want to try to All right, what do you think we're gonna are we gonna get uh Docp or xmp or whatever where the heck do you even Where do you even control that stuff here over clock mode bus speed auto manual? Oh, here we go xmp settings boom 3200 Think it's gonna work Uh, I think it's gonna work. Okay. I believe We're going straight to 3200 no problems. I mean realistically it does come down to board layout and trace design to an extent but it also Comes out comes down in a big way to the integrated memory controller on your CPU and as far as I can tell AMD doesn't just you know put their The crappiest possible memory controllers on their entry-level chips All right, do we have steam on it steam should be installed. Okay, here we go Do we have a mouse pad by any chance because as much as I love the mod mat It is not a mouse pad. I mean I have a big one I don't have although this is convenient If we'd used a mod mat as our mouse pad back in the day when we forgot to remove those feet off of that mouse In a ShortCircuit and we would have found them because I just moved it once and it removed the feet covers from the set mess by mouse That's a feature All right was I do not have an internet connection. So we're gonna have to sort that out Oh, are they not what happened to the cable? Oh, no, I got it. I got it. I got it It was so managed by our magnetic cable management that I couldn't see it Let's go I can't believe that this computer booted up. I expected it to be whammy'd We downloaded those two games on the z drive. Can I help you guys? Oh I'll let I'll let you do it. I'm gonna come over here and I'm gonna be Dan I'm gonna be producer Dan and do a merge message Hey lexus I'm starting a new. Oh, wait. Is his mic on Dan is your mic on Am I in two mics? Oh And he's not going to fix it for me. Wow, what a guy Yeah, maybe the other way around Nice Hi lexus, I'm starting a new watercool build Do you think it's possible to flood the loop with an inert gas that is denser than air? Before I fill the loop so that I can avoid bacterial buildup Hi mason b You are overthinking it You just need to put a little bit of biocide in your loop once you fill it and that is going to take Get you right sorted out. It's not going to affect performance and as cool as it is to like Put inert gas in your loop or whatever Yeah, you you really really Really really don't need to do that I mean if you do make a video about it like that sounds fire, but uh, yeah, you don't have to Matthew M says I was considering using magnetic cable management power brick holders to mount some external hard drives under my desk But given the powerful magnets, I was kind of curious good idea or bad idea You would actually be very surprised Oh Metal maxine and Floatplane chat says argon cool pc. Okay. I have actually wanted for quite some time to See what happens if you cool the pc With some other gas like like a denser gas. Can you like carry the heat away from a heat sink faster? Like I don't know. I don't know. It's it's something I've wanted to experiment with for a long time Someday someday we'll do it but but not yet. Um, well, what was I talking about again? Uh, oh, I think I lost it Right You would be very surprised how powerful of a magnet You need to have any kind of impact on a hard drive Like I mean even hard drive manufacturers are having a hard time Controlling flipping the bits and they have to use like heat assisted Recording in some of the highest end drives now and some of their most dense drives Um, tyinen actually did a really good short on the LTT channel where he showed that unless you get into absolutely ridiculous territory A magnet is not going to do anything to your hard drive. So I would say you definitely can But I would question the need to do that because if you're if your drive is sort of Permanently enough there that you need to like cable manage it into your setup Maybe it would be better to just install it as an internal drive. There is a performance advantage to doing that over usb Look at yeah, tyinen says it'll stop the motor if it's too close. Yes, but if it's in an external hard drive enclosure It shouldn't he doesn't recommend mounting hard drives with mcm. Okay, there you go tyinen has spoken in chat, but I Sincerely doubt I sincerely doubt that in an external enclosure you would manage to get it close enough to cause a problem but Take that for what it is. He says don't do it. So We don't recommend it officially There you go. What else we got Archive Wait, no way All right, timothy m says do you ever miss the old days in the garage and staying in my basement? timmy Okay, that's less weird than it sounds if you have the full context Because there was a year that we went down to I think it was packs and we did stay in timmy's basement It was it was voluntary like we were not held there against our will But but we did in fact we did in fact stay in timmy's basement It saved us. Uh, it saved us a hotel cost Which was good and we got to hang out with timmy tech tv, which was also good And yeah, I actually had our our christmas dinner our first ever annual christmas dinner for smash champs last night And between the full timers and part timers. I think we're up to about 17 people 15 of which attended the christmas dinner And it was it was pretty it was pretty fun. It was it was different LMG has gotten bigger in all the ways that are good And in all the ways that are not as good, um, you know, we have to be It's it's it's a more corporate vibe things are a little more controlled. They're a little more structured They're not really off the cuff anymore And there's definitely really good things about that from like, uh, you know liability and insurance and and you know hr Streamlining and you know all these things perspective But there are things that are more fun about working with a really small team And it was it was fun. It was it was fun kind of hanging out with smash champs team Even though I I only really know a handful of them Like some of them are pretty some of them are really new like everyone's pretty new I mean it only soft opened a few months ago But some of them are especially new like some have been kind of working behind the scenes in the lead up to the launch So I've and and I knew them before hiring them. So so those folks it's uh, it's a little more natural Just like hanging out with but uh, yeah, everyone else is pretty cool, too Archive man, these are these are coming in pretty fast here getting the merch mess. Are you you guys doing okay over there? Yeah, ragnarok's just having a little bit of an issue booting. We're getting an error code that we're just trying to resolve right now okay, but Wow, uh, it oh man at that point Would it be faster to go get a higher speed nick and install it and then copy it? I think it might Oh, yeah, okay. Yes team drive and I don't know where it is. No one knows where this team drive is. Oh good. Hey Professional tech media company. Don't worry. We've got this. Uh, what was I gonna say? Oh, yeah, do we have resizable bar installed while he's going and doing that Do you want to make sure rebar is enabled in the BIOS? It should be by default on a modern board like that, but we should double check because arc will not perform its best without resizable bar All right, what else we got here Brandon s says I'm sure you couldn't make a whole episode about it But if you could take an excuse to look at wheelchairs and hearing aid tech someday It'd be validating to see someone talk about how old the tech is Yeah, the fact that the fact that it's been so obvious for so long that apple was gunning for hearing the hearing aid market the The accessibility market and the incumbents have as far as I can tell effectively done Nothing to prevent them from coming in and completely disrupting their industry is Flipping wild to me. It shows how something can be as mainstream as apple And you can still have an entire industry being like Dump the dump the dome nothing is going to happen We can just keep charging in sane amounts of money for ancient technology. Everything should be fine. I guess Absolutely wild to me As for wheelchairs, I got to be honest with you I don't know enough about it But I do know that that's something that jerry rig everything talks about a fair bit and has done some really cool stuff in the space That's realistically the most that I know about it. The only reason I know anything about hearing aids It's just because I have a family member who is uh, who's hard of hearing and who worked in a school for the deaf So I know a little bit of sign language. I know a little bit about um, I know a little bit about the culture, but I'm always hesitant to I know enough about these communities to know that coming in as an outsider and talking about it is Not necessarily something that I should be doing and while some people might be chill with it and appreciate the spotlight Others would really prefer that I yield that spotlight to you know, um members of that community, so It's a It's a tricky it's a tricky thing and I we have looked at some for example Accessible controllers and stuff in the past, but it's not something that I like to Dive into too much Um Pugboy says air pods don't compete with the concealed style of modern hearing aids though and that's fair enough But with the number of people that I see just walking around wearing air pods I'd say having air pods in your ears is as stealthy as just about anything like I don't know. I don't know just saying just saying But I can totally understand that everyone has very different feelings and you know what works for them works for them and My perspective on this is obviously limited at best Thank you. All right archive that Anonymous asks I was looking at those little 3d printed CPU clam shells that you guys use. Where do you get them? I thought they looked 3d printed. If so, have you released the stl stl file or do you plan on releasing the stl file? We absolutely plan to release the stl files for all the cool little things that we have created internally to make our lives a Little bit easier It has taken some time for us to get that off the ground for reasons that I'm sure make sense to the people who are working on it But I do not fully understand It's been a little frustrating to me that it has taken so long for us to release this stuff But I have been assured that in the next Weeks not months. We're going to have our repository up with some of the cool little stuff that we have like we have for example for our magnetic cable management Power power bar key holder one we have we have one that takes one of those on one side and then hold a screwdriver on the other side We've got Uh, man, I don't know. We have so much stuff. We have like little stacking things that hold screwdrivers I think we've got we've got a ton of stuff including those those little CPU holders And we want to put it all in a repository for people to use Hi there says yi chuan I just found out my black friday package got processed in germany yesterday, but i'm in china How much chance I will have it before chinese new year? I'm going to be honest with you yi chuan I have no idea I cannot imagine Why it would have been more practical for them to go all the way across north america All the way across the atlantic ocean and then Well into europe to route to china anyone in chat like is that is that a thing? Versus just going over the pacific like My best guess is that it just has to do with like capacity And you know how much capacity there is on the cargo planes and and that's how they're picking That's how they're picking the route versus, you know, the shortest possible distance drakis says that germany is the major shipping hub and i'm like, okay Like that's cool But yeah, annan max store says my package is headed to peru and is also in germany Okay Sure, I have never been in china and ordered something from north america before so Shut up dig tf says i've ordered on LTT Store before I live in new zealand And that goes through germany as well. And that's just what because dhl is german Too far gone says they live in new zealand theirs didn't so it seems to just come down to Whatever makes the most sense To them with their logic All right, good job everybody Cool same for india apparently says joshua. All right, cool Wolf west says i think it's due to dhl doing that to save money i Someday someday i will work in the shipping and logistics industry and i will learn how that helps save money Shipping things halfway around the world before sending them back the other halfway around the world in the other direction but Now i do i have not done that and i do not know so i have no insight to share with you How's that going over there good? But we could play the other games if you want let's do that Let's do it. Let's play you suck at parking Linus. All right I assume this is a controller game. Do we have any controllers handy trick question? David has a whole wall of controllers over there. So why don't we um, yes, sir grabbing one really quick Thank you so much appreciate you So i just hit the mute button again. I didn't oh good Uh metal maxine says Dan has an international logistics degree. I think is that true Dan? Yeah Okay, can you explain why everything routes through germany instead of going like maybe on a direct path? Uh, let me just mute this mic probably because of like the standard distribution hubs, right? If i am always sending planes to one place Just go to that one place instead of going somewhere else right if there's no direct connection Yeah, it's kind of frustrating. You think from like west coast north america to china Like it's china. You think that you'd have the hub there. Why wouldn't you? I mean like most fedex I believe goes through is it is it memphis? Like every single fedex plane goes to their hub. They do all their maintenance everything like that Okay, okay plane maintenance. Sure. I don't remember where ups is. Is that detroit? I feel like this is the kind of thing that like ai would actually be perfect for helping with I mean they're probably using it already. I I just mean if you were to if you were to have You know more hubs, yeah, then you could kind of help to solve for You know, what's the most efficient way to have it go do some stuff and then end up back at the main depot for maintenance or whatever I don't know, but sure there you have it. It's more cost effective apparently to just have your main hubs and then have everybody you know who is an expert at doing whatever the crap it is that they're doing there and Sure, okay. Oh cool. Hey, we've got the nixie npo one Let's go press right trigger to accelerate. Let's play some you suck at parking I am I am stoked stoked to try this. Oh, uh I'm also stoked on the fact that I'm getting a casual 380 frames per second on my 500 gaming pc now obviously This is not the world's heaviest game by any stretch of the imagination I've also set the monitor to 240 and I think it's is it 4k, but we're running at 4k Let's go I've already started installing it. Oh, okay. All right grass and snow are on Let's go. Do you want to get a close-up of my 370 FPS? I did that people don't believe me Let's go get a closer close up closer close up 380 $500 gaming pc Sick. All right Right trigger to accelerate Okay Oh, okay Left trigger to break stopping is parking. There is no reverse Are you kidding me? Okay, so I just need to like nail this boom Now park on all spots Oh Oh, oh you already parked here find a different way. I know I can steer Whoa, let's go Okay, did that count I think that counted Oh, this is fun. Dude the driving physics in this game are so fun Oh, you can't reverse Right that makes sense Dude, it's just drift central. I love it How have I never heard of this I don't play cs Oh, no. Oh, keep practicing. Oh, yeah. Okay skip tutorial. Let's go Welcome to your second parking. Have fun parkster. Oh, I don't think I'm going to be playing online What's campaign inferno Drive around find landmarks to play levels or in parking spots to unlock new islands. Okay Oh my god, you can go off the edge that that makes sense. That seems like the kind of thing at elder hut. Okay Let it sizzle Carbacue Well, this is fun Juani says this game looks so fun. Hey, did I mention that we got it from our sponsor for today's video green man gaming? Do I have any more talking points for them or anything Elijah? They just have a sick sick sale, you know, you got a sale. Oh no. Oh my god. I'm on fire My car is on fire. What what happens? I die. I mean, yeah, kind of checks out. Um logically speaking Okay, I think I follow Okay, that counted apparently. Okay, boom Dude, this is so fun. I kind of love it Okay, so this time I do not take the first. Oh, no. Oh, oh, oh jeez Okay Dude, please tell me they have like competitive modes and stuff. Oh Oh my god. No, not that I should be competing in them Oh, what do you mean? This is just like you're driving IRL, right? I think I am better at parking than this in real life Okay, I just need to take this wide. Yeah, there we go. Oh, let's go. Oh my god this jump. Okay, sure. Oh, it's got the And a casual 390 frames per second right now. Oh Well, that doesn't work very well And we're in motion Oh, yeah, that was that was not a fair comparison though He was in the middle of nowhere Dude, this is fun. Oh, come on. Okay It's sort of fun It's the kind of like frustrating fun that uh, you know, some people are into masochists Dan probably Okay, we're just gonna take it a little slower here. We're gonna get we're gonna take it a little slower. What? Yes, okay, I got the second one and then yeah, there's a third one still. Okay, I can do this I can do this Wait, I only have 15 seconds. I didn't even realize that each attempt was time. Wait, I'm down to Oh, no, you have a fixed amount of time total to do all of them. I only have six seconds left. I can't make it I can't make it Dan No Last car last car. Oh my god. I can still make it. I just have to be perfect in every oh my god What out of fuel? What do you mean out of fuel? Either way Hold on how quiet is this machine? Andy stock cooler pretty quiet Oh good timing for a train pretty loud. Yeah Dude this thing's quiet. I love this computer Do we have uh, do we have hardware info on here? Uh Maybe okay, uh, if we don't I'm gonna get it real quick. So then when we play our next game Yeah, see how uh ragnarok's doing as well. Hopefully okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah should be about 10 minutes or something. Uh It's that 3% did you guys configure it to allow transfers to continue while gaming? Probably not. I think we have like that by default Okay It might be on this drive as well. Oh, okay. So you can just add this drive as a uh game drive really quick. Okay. Well, I'm allowing Okay, let's have a look common Got a war ragnarok. Let's go Storage add drive boom Here we go It's gonna be great Now we're gaming boys Oh, we might have we might have bunged it We might have bunged it. Uh, you're good. Did you add it as a destination? Hold on. Hold on Hold on. I'm going to un I'm gonna unbind that one Game drive d Uh remove library. Yes Okay, then I'm going to manage and uninstall god of war ragnarok That I've I've run into this before where you're like downloading it to one of your game libraries And then you like plug in one that has it and then you go to launch it and it's like Has no idea what to do. You don't you don't want it. It's a bad time All right, let's throw the other game drive back on there. Boom And god of war ragnarok is ready to go. Okay before we do that though Let's go ahead and grab our portable copy of hardware info Which is a super super awesome hardware monitoring program And I want to see what kind of temps we're getting on our CPU and GPU in spite of the fact that we have Functionally no case airflow Which is that the one rear fan Which in fairness is all we can really expect for a 35 dollar case, but Um, it's not necessarily ideal for having your hardware running as nicely as possible All right CPU, which one do we want? Sure, we'll take um t die Okay, so we've got a little graph for our CPU now. Let's go grab a little graph for our GPU GPU core temperature GPU global oh the current maximum temperature. Okay, so that'll be our hot spot probably Okay, let's grab our hot spot and our core temp for the GPU Oh shoot. I always I always Do that Oh, of course, it's a web search because why wouldn't it be a web search? Thanks microsoft I always do that I uh specifically removed the ability to do that on your wan laptops Easy what sorry what ability did you remove from my wan laptop? They'd be able to the ability to web search from the start menu Oh, really? Yeah, this computer and the other one too. Yeah, I hate it We should do uh We should do just like a like a Windows modding guide. Oh, yeah, just Windows Windows. Yeah Like it'd be probably a great little Floatplane exclusive. No, no, I think that could be a mainline video Elijah do you mind do you mind adding that to the next writer's meeting? We'll do just like little tweaks like that. You do like 10 Windows tips to make Windows better um, there's some there's some really good stuff like better indexing for um Uh for network folder shares and stuff like that. So you don't have to wait around forever. I will add it to the writer's meeting Yeah, handful handful of stuff like that would be really cool. Okay Okay, god of war ragnarok. Let's go. Oh, I guess I'll be using my controller again probably Casual Yeah, I'm not gonna you're not gonna play god of war with the mouse keyboard. I know cheese Casual this guy Oh, what's updating Oh, okay, come on read this. Okay. Do you want to hit me with the merge message in the meantime then? Yeah, sure I think I've got one left here. Sure Linus Could you showcase the commuter backpack and would it come with the big locking carabiner like the LTT backpack? Loved it, but sadly lost it Oh, you lost your original Oh, dude, it's so big. How'd you lose it? No, just kidding. I'm just making fun of our gigantic backpack Um, yeah, sure. I can show you guys the commuter bag if you really want we do have a commercial we just did and I believe Oh, no, I think they just did the photography the product photography for the product page. So I guess that yeah, it's probably Not up there yet Hmm Oh, seriously Wow, thanks so much. Wow, there's so many people watching the stream today. How you guys doing youtube chat. I never talked to you guys Kato-san says I play god of war ragnarok using mouse and keyboard. Ha ha ha. See this is why I don't talk to you guys because your psychos God of war with a keyboard and mouse I mean, I've never played god of war. So for all I know it's a perfectly valid option. I'm just bugging you Hmm connor suggests if you do a d-Windows Windows, you should do it in sections. This is safe beginner friendly And then like increasing levels of kind of dangerous like before you get into kind of any sort of like registry editing Yeah, exactly. I think removing the web searches registry registry. Yeah man, but the thing is like if you I think there's scripts for it though. Yeah. Oh scripts are scarier I think running a script that edits your registry is way less safe than Changing a couple of values, especially because the values often have names that somewhat Seen kind of intuitive to what they do like if you're running a script that changes your registry I'd be pretty I'd be pretty skizzed out by that Don't I continue through the setup of god of war or the backpack you were on the backpack for the commuter I can get through the setup if you want, right? um Yeah, sure. Do you want to do want to do the setup just to see if I can kind of run you guys through it It's obviously not as big. Oh look, Elijah's backpack is here. That's convenient Elijah, I'm going to borrow your backpack just for size reference. I'm not going to dig through it. Yeah Okay, so there's the size comparison But what's really cool about the commuter bag is that it's not as Smaller or as it seems in terms of carrying capacity because the original bag has an internal water bottle holder And the commuter bag has an external water bottle holder so You do you do definitely have less carrying capacity and one of the biggest differences is here In the like device carry. Oh, okay. Well, I can't open it But the point is that the original backpack has enough room to like Stuff a steam deck at the bottom on top of your laptop and your tablet and then like another screen safe pocket there This is really designed for laptop tablet And that's about it if you want. Oh, hey look Dan's got his there you go So there's the original which you could put like truly ridiculous Class of hardware in and still have room for like your your chargers and whatever else you need And then yeah, like I said, it's got the two screen safe pockets Instead of just the one in the commuter and then this thick boy pocket that has screen safe material at the bottom For like an ally or steam deck or a claw or something like that so a little bit less device capacity, but The pouch of holding does make a triumphant return So you can just like stash your tech sack down in the bottom here. You've got a bunch of organizing pockets including some that are Magnetic, let's go or have zippers or like other means of kind of holding stuff in place um Little kind of pocket down here our air tag pocket makes a return um It doesn't have the front organizing pouch either though, which I really like for quick access, but it's a smaller bag What do you want? I think it's 25 rather than 35 liters or something like that Does anyone know does anyone remember off the top of their head? It'll be on the product page. Don't quote me on that um, but All of that is while still being very tech forward while still having extremely robust build quality So we've got our dual grommets on the carrying straps. So that's not going to come off. It's not going to wear out we've got um a reinforced stitch As well as a grommet on the bottom here because I hate it when stuff like that wears out Especially because it costs so little to reinforce it We've got the same style of straps that have been extremely popular on the original bag with sort of the the bridge here But we have the new contoured Shoulder straps that help make it a little bit more friendly to people with different widths of frames That's a piece of feedback that we've gotten a lot on the original backpack is for more petite people It can be quite big and quite quite quite wide and it doesn't really Doesn't really come in and like like sit properly on their body. So these new contoured ones seem to be very Widely compatible with humans. I think that's about all I have to say about that since this game is apparently ready for us to play We are currently on 4k medium, but you could adjust if you would like. Yeah, I think we're not going to go 4k. Okay, let's go Let's go Uh, wait, seriously, is this not going to let me? Oh, yeah, sure. Sorry, Andy. Watch your cable. Is it how do I uh, seriously? I don't want to You're good Why why is modern gaming like this? Do I just have to set the render scale? Uh, you might have to change the full screen. So no, it's that doesn't work. Oh, I missed. Okay So if I go windowed Then I'm just stuck with windowed. There's no full screen windowed Let's see if chat has the solution here. Like is it just uh, is it just a scaling thing like render scale? No, this is just taa Yeah, I might have to adjust it in Windows Seriously, it might be going based off your window settings. Oh, that is so stupid Ridiculous people are like change desktop resolution. That is That is ridiculous. Um Okay, well, give me a minute. There's a couple other things that I want to have a look at. Okay. We're on xcss Taa quality. Let's go, uh Let's go quality Oh, well that changes our resolution Sure. Okay. Our render resolution is a little Oh false Our render resolution is a little above 1080p and then we're going to be using xcss to upscale it That's about what I had wanted to do anyway So there we go Cool Okay, anything with dead zones. Can I get rid of dead zones? Oh, that wouldn't be in here anyway Uh, okay Controller view controls. Can I No, that's it. Maybe it's in gameplay I hate dead zones And I can't adjust them. Okay, great. Oh, whatever. I'm over it. Oh my god. We're compiling shaders Uh, what do you guys have running on here for FPS monitoring? Is that frame view or is that just the built-in steam one? That's built in steam one Did we did we not get frame view? No, because we had the built-in steam one. Okay, uh, the built-in steam one sucks We should use frame view Oh Is it dead zone the new like MOBA shooter? Uh No deadlock But very close Mr. David, can I help you? Are you I'm just hanging out on private. Oh, okay. We're seven minutes over. Oh, okay Just hurry it up. Okay. David's just standing here waiting to shoot in the video. I lucky Oh, yeah, lucky's over there. I actually am curious how this thing could do that work Dude, this thing is killer Well, yeah, but can it whatever yeah, whatever got him Okay, there we go frame view infinite and then guys, I never used the steam one How do you turn it off because I don't care about it and I don't want it And uh, Elijah enabled resizable bar. Okay, good Got it. I found it. Okay. Okay. All right. Now we have a proper FPS counter Whoa, that's new Oh, did it stop Cool. So our average FPS is sitting somewhere in the neighborhood of around 70 with our 1% lows hovering between High 40s and low 50s, occasionally dipping way down to about 30 It looks really good. We're above 1080p, right? We're like I want to uh, I want to skip this. Can I skip this? No It's very short. Okay I love I love modern gaming and insert modern year Dan, do you have any merch messages? I've got one more. All right, hit me Will it be better to wait for the 50 series in videographics cards or should I go for a 4080 super currently? Just curious given the tariff situation That is a very good question and the answer is that I cannot answer that for you It seems like a lot of the tariff conversations could be just saber rattling But you never know you never know what's going to happen when a new administration takes over in the u.s And they are going to be dictating a lot of the terms for you know What the what the trading situation is going to look like into 2025 and beyond so Good luck everybody We kind of laid out everything that we had to say about it and that should you buy a pc now video that we did a Little while ago, so if you haven't watched that go ahead and watch it if you have watched it and you're looking for more Information unfortunately, I don't have any. I don't have a functioning crystal ball Sorry guys All right, how are we doing here? All right, david assured me it's short. So if it's not short then you know who to blame blame david Thankfully, he's not mic'd This is a short joke I am seeing a little bit of stutter here and there But I don't know how much of that is because we're compiling shaders in the background So unfortunately, we're probably going to have to stall for time while this finishes compiling shaders And then we can get a fair impression of how the game is running So in the meantime, uh Dan if you have any more merge messages coming in let me know otherwise Hey, maybe I'll do something really weird and I'll hang out with youtube chat for a change I know right they are Dude, they are like unhinged every time I dive into youtube chat. I'm like, why do I do this again? What about twitch chat? Maybe they have something to say. Uh, absolutely not. No Twitch chat's the worst. What do you mean twitch? That's the worst. They know they're the worst Yeah, rob gator says Linus actually has no functioning balls Uh, I don't know. That's functional. Like that's like that's a no, no, they don't function. Yeah, I was gonna say that's an accurate Twitch comment. No the uh, no the balls function It's the it's the tube that connects them that doesn't function. Yeah, so the yeah, no if anything the balls function too good That's why I had to nerf them That's a crazy statement. Otherwise I would get too many more kids So what did you call your wife on Ludwig's podcast? I called her excellent breeding stock That's a to this day a crazy sentence. What I mean it as a compliment. It's a compliment Look, it was on a different it was on a different podcast, okay It was on a different podcast where what happens at wancho stays it. Yeah, that's that wasn't wancho That was the yard. Oh, that's totally fine. Yeah. Um, there's a different show at the yard. Look, she was there She I wouldn't say I wouldn't say anything about my wife that I wouldn't say in front of her I'm just I'm just saying that like For us to not have more kids steps needed to be taken We needed to take steps. Let's just go back to youtube chat. Yeah, let's go Okay, how's youtube chat doing? We've left uh, we've left uh, uh, twitch chat now, which is good aw Extra cheese says hey, I just picked up a 7600 x 3d bundlet microcenter for my first build. What GPU should I grab? I mean, oh, that's a tough one See like the best value gaming GPU on the market right now is the arc b580 the one that we're featuring in our $500 build But you bought a 7600 x 3d. You aren't building a $500 computer So I would say at the price that you're looking at I would probably start to look more into some of AMD's More value options and I'm trying to remember What are the what are the currently available ones? I find AMD's lineup to be really Confusing like what they what they have available at any given time like something like 6700 class Yeah, it looks like those are still those are still readily available. It's like over $500. It's a good GPU though 12 gigs vram Um, I'd say that's probably a good place to start. I see some people recommending 7900 gre, but that's they got a You know, it's balanced, right? Like They bought a 7600 x 3d Right, they don't oh the gre is well the gre is cheaper than oh, it's not a stock though. Yeah, okay, so If you could get one the gre sure is a great deal But I don't see a single unit in stock does microcenter have them Man when did 70 when did 7900 gre get so cheap for kratos sometimes AMD does this though where they like have a card or they have a variant of something that theoretically exists but in practice they just like Bring it out. They make a few of them kind of disrupt the market Kind of like trash the value perception of the rest of their cards and then it functionally doesn't exist And you're just like, okay Good job AMD because now nobody knows What to recommend to anybody? um Yeah on microcenter. There's one from xfx And it says x available in store only and is out of stock in Literally every location and that's the only 7900 gre they have so it's like yeah, it's good recommendation, but functionally Doesn't exist so okay Like that's uh, I remember having a conversation about this on wancho a while back someone was like, why do you never recommend AMD Something was it like the fury fury cards or vega or something? I was like because they are not real Because AMD announced these cards made like 25 of them and then was like Derp de der And then they'll like do a price drop or whatever like promo them away and then Effectively nobody's actually making anymore and I even I even brought it up on stream. I was like here look Here's all of the like this card available on new egg. You've got like this one brand And you go to like add them to cart and if you add any more than two It's like no, sorry. You can't buy any more than that. It's out of stock and it's like yeah This is not even a real product So AMD's GPU division has done that like a number of times over the last five six years where they have these products That nobody's actually building boards for AMD doesn't seem to be actually shipping any GPU's they just exist as sort of like price disruptors For what? AMD's own lineup like i'm not saying price disruptors are bad. They're good But they have to actually be available. So that's one of the things that i've talked to Intel about with arc b580s Like hey, you need to talk to the partners You need to be like look guys, okay 259 99 269 99 for like, you know, if you've got a nice big cool or a really nice design or something like that, okay, but Don't let this get out of control Don't let them Be like oh, well finally an opportunity to make money on arc. Well, let's make another 20 bucks A short-term thinking you've got to buy some market share right now work with the partners Make sure you guys are getting these cards in the hands of gamers building up the brand Building up the install base giving the driver team something to actually a reason to work on Improving their drivers so you have more than you know dozens of people out there enjoying arc graphics like Get the team motivated. You guys all got to be pulling together. There'll be time to make money make money later Now is not the time Um, so i'm i'm hoping i'm hoping that that makes its way to the top that that makes its way to the add-in board partners I can't guarantee it, but I can hope Shoot i just do it again I don't know what it is, but i'm gonna put this on the other side because i'm No, no, no, i'm just i'm gonna put it on the other side so that i don't do that anymore Okay, there we go now. I can now I can lean against my table. I can get comfortable here All right shaders are almost compiled. We're at 89 And this boy is still running pretty good Definitely a little bit of pop in there Definitely some dips and one percent lows Definitely a wolf But it's a very demanding game though I was gonna say this price is actually cheaper than like a ps5 and a ps5 pro, right? So like no 500 dollars. Well, no, sorry the the discless version. I guess no the the ps5 was on promo this black friday for like Oh, wasn't it? Oh, I missed that then. Oh, that's my bad Yeah, i'm trying to think I think that was that like 350 bucks or something like that. There were some 380 oh, okay ps5 slims were going for as low as 380 for black friday So a playstation is still an outstanding value from a hardware standpoint But the difference is that you're locked into their game store. So you're not going to be able to use Our sponsor green man gaming to get tons of great deals on games You're going to be stuck paying with with a console. You're going to be stuck paying subscription fees potentially You're going to be stuck with a higher potential cost to repair it if anything happens down the line Whereas with a pc that's modular like this something goes wrong. You just Fart a new one into it and you're good to go. So there are Like anything there are pros and cons both ways people who game on playstation are not idiots They just take that set of trade-offs that they prefer and people who game on pc are not big dumb idiots They're just people who prefer that set of trade-offs So no a playstation 5 is absolutely still a very compelling value from a hardware standpoint. It's just that what we are now Is very comfortably Within the price bracket where we're within the price range Instead of having awkward conversations that go hey Linus. I bought a 7600 x3d at micro center What GPU would you recommend and literally the only like step up class of GPU that I find is going to cost you 600 freaking dollars Just for the GPU before you've even got a case CPU RAM power supply cooler anything else, right? And that's what I am super excited about. That's why we did the stream We only planned this stream when I sat down and did script review um No, I think it was even after script review. I think it was When we uploaded the video I watched it back. I started reading some of the comments from people and I was like holy crap We can we could oh no It must have been script review because it was in script review that I was like Hey, we should talk about how you can kind of build a $500 gaming pc again Okay, it must have been then but we only planned this like last minute to do a stream building a $500 gaming pc because I was like Oh my goodness. This is it. This is the key. This is what unlocks it So this was just because I was excited to finally be able to show you guys With a straight face a great value gaming machine with all new parts for around 500 bucks It's 540 for those of you tuning in now $540 we did cheat a little bit But there are areas where you could save yourself 40 bucks instead of buying a brand new case You could just go find one at a local recycler ATX standard hasn't changed in years decades literally decades So you could throw this hardware in some random case pull the side panel off You know get out a pair of pliers You've been things out of the way if you got to stick your GPU in there You could save some money there You could probably save some money on the motherboard if you're willing to go for like a weird like, you know tau Taobao brand or something like that I think you could probably save a buck on the power supply if you're willing to go with like a thermal take smart You could even get this under 500 bucks But 540 was what we were comfortable with with all brand new parts from brands that we know are going to actually back you up In the event of a warranty claim or something like that Freaking incredible our shaders are 99% compiled and let's have a look at god of war rag and rock On a $500 gaming pc we're running at 4k, but not native We're using xcss upscaling and so the native rendering is at about 1080p So this is about what you'd get at 1080p in terms of frame rates about it's actually a little higher All right Come on shaders Man, don't you love that don't you love that computer developers? They they have the world's most warped definition of The last 1% of things that I think is possible. I and I understand it's not entirely It's not the developer's fault that can be unexpected challenges and I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it I'm not ragging on you. You do great work. Thank you but There we go. We are finally done compiling shaders. All right. Am I allowed to skip this? No, it's a cinematic experience. All right, it's a cinematic experience Well, what we can do is we can Note because there's depth of field so we can't even evaluate how sharp it looks Now we can actually not bad There's some messiness in the beard when it's moving So you're you're definitely yeah as is as his face swings back and forth If you know what you're looking for You're going to see a little bit of upscaling artifacting. I'm also seeing the odd dropped frame But we've also talked a fair bit about how this is not a 4k card. This is it well outside of its comfort zone Turkey submarine says I wish I knew the specs of the pc. Yeah, we can run through that So we've got a a Ryzen 5 5600, right? Uh, or it's a 5500. Sorry. It was a 5500. 5500 Ryzen 5 5500 6 core processor 16 gigs of vdr 4 3200 megatransfer for second memory with an as rock micro atx motherboard That's the cheapest we could find from a trusted brand We've got a Corsair cx 550 550 watt power supply That was the minimum that lucas from the lab would allow us to use even though we could probably save some money with Oh, it's not there anymore, but whatever with with a cheaper power supply So the diy pc some cheap case just the cheapest thing we could find and then an Intel arc b580 And a patriot p300 SSD. Oh, yeah, that's right patriot p300 SSD as well We went with a 512 gig because that's what fit in our budget if we wanted more storage then we've got four SATA ports And I did confirm there is in fact a hard drive mounting point in the bottom of the case so we could add something there And am I ever going to get to actually play the game? Remember when david said that this opening cinematic thing was short? Yeah, I remember I remember remember when chat picked this game Let's blame chat. Yeah way to go way to go Floatplane chat 175 gigs of just movies. That's crazy All right, let's go come on. Yes. Yes. Yes. You need to sleep. I know it's tiring being the god of war Whoever said they wanted firefox is the game. That's not an option. You can't you can't have that Look, I know you all play firefox We just wanted you here longer. Yeah, I mean mission accomplished then I suppose All right, I'm going back to I'm going back to youtube chat. They seem more trustworthy YouTube chat redemption arc. Wow Maybe they just go really weird on friday nights. We're not at 2500 p upscaled to 4k toby. We're at more like 2200 which is a lot less server than it sounds like as resolution scales The amount that you're adding is so much more or as you go bigger or Oh, whoa, look at that. We're in game. Hey, we're in game. What's up, yo? All right, we're going this way Can I run oh, okay Dude not bad Not bad. You're playing like modern triple a games Like for real on this machine Our previous attempts at like budget gaming PCs for the last like five years have been so frustrating because either We had to go second hand, which I know there's a there's a cohort of people out there that are just not going to consider it Right So we either had to go second hand, which upsets those people Or we had to seriously seriously compromise on performance like when we did our holiday buyers guide arc battle mage wasn't out yet Our recommended pc had an apu because we were like well Realistically at this price you can't afford a GPU anyway So you might as well get an apu which will game at like 1080p low in triple a games or you might even be forced to go down to 720p and then you can save up for a GPU. It was like the merry christmas Wait for your birthday pc. I think was what we called it This is the merry christmas right now today pc as long as you can get your hands on an arc v580 super exciting And I think that pretty much wraps us unless Dan you have another merge message or two I have one final merge message for today. All right hit me from anonymous They bought a precision multi bit and a precision built set your laptop skin looks absurd You weren't supposed to use it beyond the qualcomm daily driver challenge signed a robot Uh Oh, no way No way that could actually be dbrand I mean no one else would have any way of knowing that I wasn't supposed to continue to using it It's not even for my laptop like Honestly, I keep using it as much to upset them as anything else So they're they're on to me like look at this it has a cut out for a microsoft surface This isn't a surface You know how they're all about precision fit and everything this doesn't fit at all This is just Complete nonsense and I've added more stickers to it now. Yeah, I know it really does look awful If you don't like it dbrand, maybe you should make better skins Ooh like the glow circuit And you could check out our uh, you could check out our sponsor green man gaming I've got a great sale running right now. We picked up. Did I just break something? Cool. Did that game close when I dropped my computer next to the pc? That was weird Did it did I click something? I I was not paying enough attention. All right neat. Anyway, uh, the point is uh green man gaming Check them out. We picked up some actually pretty great deals on games including you suck at parking Um, we're gonna have them linked in the video description. Thank you guys very much for tuning into the stream big. Thanks to Dan and elijah Pathetic um, all right Play me out Dan The next copyrighted No, no, no, don't sing don't sing don't sing real songs.
