00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:04.120
hello

00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:33.359
sponsored by ASUS tough

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:33.359
yup they were the only ones crazy enough

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:47.039
yes my friends who but us would be crazy

00:00:44.239 --> 00:00:52.559
enough to build a hardcore gaming setup in a bathroom

00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:55.920
yeah bit wit but we had the idea first

00:00:52.559 --> 00:00:58.640
and he also did it wrong i mean who sits

00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:03.520
on the throne long enough to actually play a game you wanna play a game

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:10.200
you wanna relax you know you wanna lounge

00:01:07.520 --> 00:01:15.520
and you wanna hang out with brian the electrician hey guys

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

00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:25.280
your bathtub let's see how this goes the plan for today is actually pretty

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:30.240
straightforward i've already got electrical wiring up in my attic for an

00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:34.400
outlet and some lights that are up there so what we're gonna do

00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:39.119
is we're gonna tie into that fish the wiring down this wall put a

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

00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:48.960
here sitting next to an outlet that we're going to use to power our tough

00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:52.079
rtx 3090 gaming rig that's right my

00:01:48.960 --> 00:01:54.320
friends the fastest computer in my house

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

00:01:55.920 --> 00:02:00.719
house you've actually done literally all the work so

00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:04.320
i'm not sure what the first step is here find a stud

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

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

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:18.239
need to you know diggy diggy hole okay i could

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

00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:25.760
some of them are loose that is wood

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:31.040
ah that's a problem you can see the brace

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

00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:40.879
like i say because the plumbing stacks here so to help brace that

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

00:02:42.959 --> 00:02:48.560
that sounds good the main highlights of

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:52.959
ASUS's tough rtx 3080 are that it's factory overclocked and boosts up to 18

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

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.400
reversed central fan direction for less turbulence it features dual ball bearing

00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:04.080
fans those last longer than cheaper sleeve bearing fans and of course it

00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:08.640
includes military-grade caps and other tough components to enhance durability

00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:13.280
it also features two HDMI 2.1 ports if your configuration requires such a thing

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

00:03:16.640 --> 00:03:23.920
the right size other than the rtx 3080 graphics card this is actually a pretty

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:29.200
reasonable gaming system so we went with a tough gt310 case it's got the carrying

00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:32.480
handle on the front got the filtered intake that's going to be important

00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:37.040
because we're up in the attic got a nice nhd15 cooler not necessarily for quiet

00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:41.360
because it's going to be in a completely separate room but actually because it

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

00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:49.360
summer my system is still running cool enough the CPU is a core i5 10 600k

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:55.120
again we wanted to keep things relatively reasonable and naturally

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:56.799
we've got a tough gaming GeForce rtx

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:01.840
3080 and i did throw in 10 gig networking just just in case it comes up

00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:04.159
now the one thing that is pretty over the top

00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:11.239
crucial sponsored us incentive of their extreme

00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:18.079
speed 5100 megahertz ddr4 memory

00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:22.079
this is crazy my memory is faster than my CPU

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

00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:31.360
includes an electric screwdriver with its own light on the end some energy

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:35.280
drink powder or mix or whatever screwdriver bits and

00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:39.360
a little lego the flash

00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:44.400
some assembly required can you see the RAM

00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:47.360
oh right oh yeah

00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:52.400
there's the memory ballistics max

00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:56.479
dang they don't need no RGB on this just go fast

00:04:54.000 --> 00:05:00.639
so the thing about really fast memory is it depends not just on the RAM but

00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:05.360
also on the quality of the integrated memory controller and your CPU as well

00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:10.560
as just the quality of the traces on your motherboard like we are asking this

00:05:06.880 --> 00:05:12.639
thing to go real freaking fast so let's

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:17.199
go ahead and there we go

00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:21.280
5100 okay yeah i can take a moment to show

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:25.360
off some of ASUS's tough gaming peripherals so they sent us over a

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:30.800
complete suite of their uh tough keyboard mouse and actually it's an rog

00:05:28.479 --> 00:05:35.440
mouse pad that happens to include RGB lighting which is pretty freaking cool

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

00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:43.520
gonna need wireless so then they also sent over

00:05:41.280 --> 00:05:47.360
a bunch of wireless stuff including i think we even got like a wireless

00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:51.840
headset i mean headset in the bath why not right wireless mouse got a gladius2

00:05:50.080 --> 00:05:56.479
wireless well as it turns out my apprehension was justified at default

00:05:54.400 --> 00:06:02.000
settings without really in-depth tinkering our poor CPU was not able to

00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:04.880
run our memory at 5.1 gigahertz so we'll have to settle with

00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:12.240
66 it's like basically peasant speeds you're going to

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

00:06:13.919 --> 00:06:19.759
because there was tile then drywall yeah therefore we needed a pull down tv wall

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

00:06:21.440 --> 00:06:27.199
height that matters um and also if you're in the shower you can

00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:31.199
even tilt it this is no way i didn't even think of that yeah

00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:34.720
and furthermore you'll be able to slide it this way

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:38.240
to get the perfect centering when you're in the tub that's not all we

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

00:06:41.039 --> 00:06:45.919
weird that's so we decided i mean the whole thing's weird

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

00:06:47.919 --> 00:06:53.919
pretty well-regarded one from anchor but how on earth are we going to mount a

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

00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:02.319
that are going to come down that you attach them to the wall mount and then

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

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

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

00:07:12.080 --> 00:07:19.039
here okay will this be covered

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

00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:27.360
okay yeah yeah i'm just gonna undo my nut here

00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:31.840
all right how's the size now this is actually so sick it's like right

00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:40.400
here it's awesome that's hilarious get in you absolutely

00:07:36.960 --> 00:07:42.800
nailed the mount on this it's like

00:07:40.400 --> 00:07:47.759
oh my god it's like right there

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

00:07:49.840 --> 00:07:56.879
over can you believe it took me three years

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

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

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

00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:15.520
not to now's our chance guys hey hey see

00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.520
you later

00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:22.000
hey what's the HDMI plan

00:08:19.599 --> 00:08:27.199
you said 15 feet i did uh and i said are you sure there's

00:08:25.039 --> 00:08:32.479
only one way to find out for certain got some good news here

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:33.599
it's possible that cable's long enough

00:08:32.479 --> 00:08:39.599
so we just gotta do a little attach attach here

00:08:37.760 --> 00:08:41.919
HDMI in one

00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:44.159
oh hey

00:08:45.920 --> 00:08:52.480
this isn't even regular phillips hue is it it is regular philips hue but all

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:57.600
philips hue can synchronize through the games if you have the desktop app oh

00:08:55.519 --> 00:09:00.800
lttstore.com he's trying

00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:04.880
look i just don't want it to come off okay

00:09:03.040 --> 00:09:10.320
like i trust this so much more than i trust double-sided tape that is not

00:09:06.800 --> 00:09:11.760
going anywhere now oh hi whoa hey yup

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

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

00:09:18.560 --> 00:09:25.519
this the master plan to finally off me you guys

00:09:22.560 --> 00:09:29.920
i just need to cable manage these and we're in in terms of peripherals

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

00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:39.120
2.4 gigahertz for low latency all that good stuff mouse and keyboard that

00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:44.240
matters a lot so we wanted something with great performance as well as strong

00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:49.839
range so we're using the rog gladius 2 wireless and then for our keyboard

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

00:09:52.160 --> 00:09:59.600
high performance wireless gaming keyboard so we're actually going

00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:02.160
with a g915 tkl so i just need the

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

00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:09.519
dongles in it oh yeah

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

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

00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:22.079
have to pull the tv out you're fine

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

00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:32.079
think it's working all right you're clear to come down sweet so Jake applied

00:10:30.079 --> 00:10:36.399
conformal coating to the pcb have we tested make sure it still works oh he

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

00:10:37.839 --> 00:10:42.800
drop it in the water that would be really stupid but if there's you know

00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:47.760
steam coming off the bath or whatever this should be much more resistant to it

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

00:10:49.760 --> 00:10:58.200
octane video here wow that's cool

00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.200
i could get into this

00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:05.600
what are we getting 130 FPS

00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:10.160
do maternal 4k ultra nightmare man all the candles all

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:15.839
the fire right now very mood setting

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:17.839
like i can see why nobody does this

00:11:15.839 --> 00:11:21.680
but on the other hand because they didn't think of it

00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:26.320
now let's enjoy what realistically i'm gonna

00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:30.399
spend most of my time on watching tv and movies that i don't feel

00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:33.760
like taking a break from in the back

00:11:31.920 --> 00:11:37.920
or should we just stick to our uh podcast about movies called carpool

00:11:35.920 --> 00:11:41.120
critics it's a good podcast you should check it out it's the best podcast

00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:44.240
spotify youtube wherever you get your podcast bro

00:11:42.959 --> 00:11:49.760
shameless just like this plug for today's sponsor

00:11:46.800 --> 00:11:53.519
ASUS tough you guys you gotta go check out ASUS time why

00:11:51.839 --> 00:11:58.480
because they're daring no one else for three years was willing

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

00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:08.320
their problem was they were too afraid it would look like a satanic ritual they

00:12:06.160 --> 00:12:12.399
were worried their weak hardware was going to get destroyed by the water

00:12:10.079 --> 00:12:17.200
vapor i don't know what it is but ASUS tuff they're tough enough to use duct

00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:20.880
tape on their chest go check them out at the link in the video description if you

00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:25.040
guys enjoyed this video you might also enjoy the one where we set up a hot tub

00:12:22.880 --> 00:12:28.399
gaming setup most people didn't really enjoy it but hey you might be one of

00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:31.920
those freaky deaks that will
