00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:04,120
hello

2
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:33,359
sponsored by ASUS tough

3
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,359
yup they were the only ones crazy enough

4
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:47,039
yes my friends who but us would be crazy

5
00:00:44,239 --> 00:00:52,559
enough to build a hardcore gaming setup in a bathroom

6
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:55,920
yeah bit wit but we had the idea first

7
00:00:52,559 --> 00:00:58,640
and he also did it wrong i mean who sits

8
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:03,520
on the throne long enough to actually play a game you wanna play a game

9
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:10,200
you wanna relax you know you wanna lounge

10
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:15,520
and you wanna hang out with brian the electrician hey guys

11
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:20,159
to put some fancy new outlets on your walls so you can set up a sick tv above

12
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:25,280
your bathtub let's see how this goes the plan for today is actually pretty

13
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:30,240
straightforward i've already got electrical wiring up in my attic for an

14
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:34,400
outlet and some lights that are up there so what we're gonna do

15
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:39,119
is we're gonna tie into that fish the wiring down this wall put a

16
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:43,439
plug on this wall add some RGB and then up this ladder i've got a shelf right

17
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:48,960
here sitting next to an outlet that we're going to use to power our tough

18
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:52,079
rtx 3090 gaming rig that's right my

19
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:54,320
friends the fastest computer in my house

20
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:57,600
is going to be in my bathroom every time we've put an electrical outlet in my

21
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,719
house you've actually done literally all the work so

22
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:04,320
i'm not sure what the first step is here find a stud

23
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:10,959
well figure out where you want to put the plug ah yes good uh on the wall

24
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:14,400
one small problem though brian what's up the installation's in now so we're gonna

25
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,239
need to you know diggy diggy hole okay i could

26
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:24,000
give you a sharper bit i got lots of tools just like you have lots of screws

27
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:25,760
some of them are loose that is wood

28
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:31,040
ah that's a problem you can see the brace

29
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:36,080
that's wood there why would they have extra bracing on an interior wall like it might partly be

30
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:40,879
like i say because the plumbing stacks here so to help brace that

31
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:44,000
or hold that in place so we can try a different wall cavity all right let's do

32
00:02:42,959 --> 00:02:48,560
that sounds good the main highlights of

33
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:52,959
ASUS's tough rtx 3080 are that it's factory overclocked and boosts up to 18

34
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:56,400
15 megahertz it's got an axial tech fan design that's been newly tuned with a

35
00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:00,400
reversed central fan direction for less turbulence it features dual ball bearing

36
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:04,080
fans those last longer than cheaper sleeve bearing fans and of course it

37
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:08,640
includes military-grade caps and other tough components to enhance durability

38
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:13,280
it also features two HDMI 2.1 ports if your configuration requires such a thing

39
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:19,280
oh wow this space is not as big as i kind of felt like it was 49 inches

40
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:23,920
the right size other than the rtx 3080 graphics card this is actually a pretty

41
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:29,200
reasonable gaming system so we went with a tough gt310 case it's got the carrying

42
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,480
handle on the front got the filtered intake that's going to be important

43
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:37,040
because we're up in the attic got a nice nhd15 cooler not necessarily for quiet

44
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:41,360
because it's going to be in a completely separate room but actually because it

45
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:45,040
gets quite hot up there and i'm going to want to make sure that even in the

46
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:49,360
summer my system is still running cool enough the CPU is a core i5 10 600k

47
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:55,120
again we wanted to keep things relatively reasonable and naturally

48
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,799
we've got a tough gaming GeForce rtx

49
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:01,840
3080 and i did throw in 10 gig networking just just in case it comes up

50
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:04,159
now the one thing that is pretty over the top

51
00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:11,239
crucial sponsored us incentive of their extreme

52
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:18,079
speed 5100 megahertz ddr4 memory

53
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:22,079
this is crazy my memory is faster than my CPU

54
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:27,120
so it's a 16 gig kit right here and it comes with this ridiculous case that

55
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:31,360
includes an electric screwdriver with its own light on the end some energy

56
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:35,280
drink powder or mix or whatever screwdriver bits and

57
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:39,360
a little lego the flash

58
00:04:37,199 --> 00:04:44,400
some assembly required can you see the RAM

59
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:47,360
oh right oh yeah

60
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:52,400
there's the memory ballistics max

61
00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:56,479
dang they don't need no RGB on this just go fast

62
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,639
so the thing about really fast memory is it depends not just on the RAM but

63
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:05,360
also on the quality of the integrated memory controller and your CPU as well

64
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:10,560
as just the quality of the traces on your motherboard like we are asking this

65
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:12,639
thing to go real freaking fast so let's

66
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:17,199
go ahead and there we go

67
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:21,280
5100 okay yeah i can take a moment to show

68
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:25,360
off some of ASUS's tough gaming peripherals so they sent us over a

69
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:30,800
complete suite of their uh tough keyboard mouse and actually it's an rog

70
00:05:28,479 --> 00:05:35,440
mouse pad that happens to include RGB lighting which is pretty freaking cool

71
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:40,160
and then we were like hey yo ASUS i'm gonna be in the bathtub i'm probably

72
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,520
gonna need wireless so then they also sent over

73
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:47,360
a bunch of wireless stuff including i think we even got like a wireless

74
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:51,840
headset i mean headset in the bath why not right wireless mouse got a gladius2

75
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:56,479
wireless well as it turns out my apprehension was justified at default

76
00:05:54,400 --> 00:06:02,000
settings without really in-depth tinkering our poor CPU was not able to

77
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:04,880
run our memory at 5.1 gigahertz so we'll have to settle with

78
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:12,240
66 it's like basically peasant speeds you're going to

79
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:16,000
be sitting in the tub way lower than the part of your wall where the tv can go

80
00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:19,759
because there was tile then drywall yeah therefore we needed a pull down tv wall

81
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:23,440
mount so you're going to be able to lay in the tub yeah pull it down to the

82
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:27,199
height that matters um and also if you're in the shower you can

83
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:31,199
even tilt it this is no way i didn't even think of that yeah

84
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,720
and furthermore you'll be able to slide it this way

85
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:38,240
to get the perfect centering when you're in the tub that's not all we

86
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:42,720
needed an audio solution because you don't want to just be wearing headphones in the tub all the time yeah kind of

87
00:06:41,039 --> 00:06:45,919
weird that's so we decided i mean the whole thing's weird

88
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:50,319
we want to minimize the weird so we got a sound bar that we had in the office a

89
00:06:47,919 --> 00:06:53,919
pretty well-regarded one from anchor but how on earth are we going to mount a

90
00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:58,000
sound bar and then pull the tv down in front of it so these are little sticks

91
00:06:56,319 --> 00:07:02,319
that are going to come down that you attach them to the wall mount and then

92
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:06,000
you can put your sound bar on there so you can pull down your sound bar on your

93
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:10,319
tv all as one unit is the tv going to be way up here when it's

94
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:16,240
no when you look at it it'll clip on here and the two most of the tv be over

95
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:19,039
here okay will this be covered

96
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:23,039
yeah but i mean will the tv cover it we're gonna find out yeah yeah all good

97
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:27,360
okay yeah yeah i'm just gonna undo my nut here

98
00:07:25,199 --> 00:07:31,840
all right how's the size now this is actually so sick it's like right

99
00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:40,400
here it's awesome that's hilarious get in you absolutely

100
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:42,800
nailed the mount on this it's like

101
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:47,759
oh my god it's like right there

102
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:52,080
why would i watch tv anywhere else yeah this is the move then okay bath time's

103
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:56,879
over can you believe it took me three years

104
00:07:54,240 --> 00:08:01,599
to find a sponsor for this project next step we're going to get a tough gaming

105
00:07:59,039 --> 00:08:07,120
pc it's tough for gamers and we're going to put it up there which is actually

106
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:13,120
like more why it needs to be tough don't drop your body down the stairs i'll try

107
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:15,520
not to now's our chance guys hey hey see

108
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,520
you later

109
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:22,000
hey what's the HDMI plan

110
00:08:19,599 --> 00:08:27,199
you said 15 feet i did uh and i said are you sure there's

111
00:08:25,039 --> 00:08:32,479
only one way to find out for certain got some good news here

112
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,599
it's possible that cable's long enough

113
00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:39,599
so we just gotta do a little attach attach here

114
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,919
HDMI in one

115
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:44,159
oh hey

116
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:52,480
this isn't even regular phillips hue is it it is regular philips hue but all

117
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:57,600
philips hue can synchronize through the games if you have the desktop app oh

118
00:08:55,519 --> 00:09:00,800
lttstore.com he's trying

119
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,880
look i just don't want it to come off okay

120
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:10,320
like i trust this so much more than i trust double-sided tape that is not

121
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,760
going anywhere now oh hi whoa hey yup

122
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:15,519
it's bright i don't know if that's gonna enhance it how much i pay for this it's

123
00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:20,480
a dimmer i don't know this is kind of a lot of electronics above my bathtub is

124
00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:25,519
this the master plan to finally off me you guys

125
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:29,920
i just need to cable manage these and we're in in terms of peripherals

126
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:35,600
i'm going to go ahead and put the dongle for the rg strix go 2.4 up there so it's

127
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:39,120
2.4 gigahertz for low latency all that good stuff mouse and keyboard that

128
00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:44,240
matters a lot so we wanted something with great performance as well as strong

129
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:49,839
range so we're using the rog gladius 2 wireless and then for our keyboard

130
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:54,320
awkwardly ASUS who as you may recall is the sponsor of this video doesn't have a

131
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:59,600
high performance wireless gaming keyboard so we're actually going

132
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:02,160
with a g915 tkl so i just need the

133
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:05,839
dongle for this puppy and we good to go put out your hand so i can put my three

134
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:09,519
dongles in it oh yeah

135
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:14,079
can i just lock you up there for a sec if you want can i just come down instead

136
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:18,399
ah you can but what if we have to like reset it or something it's hot up here i

137
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:22,079
have to pull the tv out you're fine

138
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:27,279
you're good i guess i don't really know what input i'm supposed to be on hey oh wait what i

139
00:10:25,519 --> 00:10:32,079
think it's working all right you're clear to come down sweet so Jake applied

140
00:10:30,079 --> 00:10:36,399
conformal coating to the pcb have we tested make sure it still works oh he

141
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,040
did wonderful so this is great because i mean obviously i'm not going to want to

142
00:10:37,839 --> 00:10:42,800
drop it in the water that would be really stupid but if there's you know

143
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:47,760
steam coming off the bath or whatever this should be much more resistant to it

144
00:10:44,959 --> 00:10:51,200
ooh the ambiance here is improving a lot we go ahead and fire up like a high

145
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:58,200
octane video here wow that's cool

146
00:10:54,399 --> 00:10:58,200
i could get into this

147
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:05,600
what are we getting 130 FPS

148
00:11:03,519 --> 00:11:10,160
do maternal 4k ultra nightmare man all the candles all

149
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:15,839
the fire right now very mood setting

150
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:17,839
like i can see why nobody does this

151
00:11:15,839 --> 00:11:21,680
but on the other hand because they didn't think of it

152
00:11:20,399 --> 00:11:26,320
now let's enjoy what realistically i'm gonna

153
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:30,399
spend most of my time on watching tv and movies that i don't feel

154
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,760
like taking a break from in the back

155
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,920
or should we just stick to our uh podcast about movies called carpool

156
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:41,120
critics it's a good podcast you should check it out it's the best podcast

157
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,240
spotify youtube wherever you get your podcast bro

158
00:11:42,959 --> 00:11:49,760
shameless just like this plug for today's sponsor

159
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:53,519
ASUS tough you guys you gotta go check out ASUS time why

160
00:11:51,839 --> 00:11:58,480
because they're daring no one else for three years was willing

161
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:03,279
to sponsor this concept in spite of how obviously cool it is i don't know what

162
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:08,320
their problem was they were too afraid it would look like a satanic ritual they
