00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:07.359
This is Vance, LTT's executive assistant, who among other things, helps

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:11.040
keep me on task. That means grabbing my lunch, telling me my schedule, or even

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:16.440
calling to wake me up when I'm late for a morning meeting. Well, when AMD heard

00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:23.439
about all of that, they said, "Not today." No, today. As part of Vance's

00:00:20.520 --> 00:00:29.199
$5,000 AMD Ultimate Tech upgrade, we're flipping the script. I will be his

00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:32.320
assistant, executing his vision for upgrading his gaming computer, building

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:37.040
a NAS so he can get off Google Cloud Storage, and putting up posters. Yeah,

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:41.600
of course. Before I go full assistant mode, I need to know when Vance isn't

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:46.239
swapping places with Dennis as a prank. How sticky are his fingers? He actually

00:00:44.239 --> 00:00:50.640
seems like an honest guy. I doubt he has too much stuff from the office here. I

00:00:48.239 --> 00:00:56.640
have way better stuff than this. There's no way. See, exactly. Why would I take

00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:06.159
that from the office? What the heck, dude? I almost wish you stole a monitor.

00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:09.230
2005. This monitor is 20 years old. I

00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:19.659
didn't buy it.

00:01:20.360 --> 00:01:27.200
Clearly, another AMD Ultimate tech upgrade means another AMD giveaway. This

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:31.040
time, not only are they hooking you up with some sweet new tech, they're also

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:37.280
hooking your friend up so you can game together. One lucky winner will get an

00:01:33.759 --> 00:01:39.759
AMD Ryzen 7 9800 X3D, plus another one

00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:43.840
to give to a friend. Both CPUs will also come with a motherboard and RAM to

00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:47.680
complete your AM5 upgrades. Head on over to the description to enter the giveaway

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:51.680
while you can. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Do you know we have the same

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:56.399
keyboard? We do? Yeah. Oh, I have one of these at home. I got this from a friend

00:01:53.920 --> 00:02:01.439
after I spilled apple cider on it and ruined it for him. So, I bought him a

00:01:58.479 --> 00:02:05.119
new one and I he gave me the old one so I could try and repair it. And so, I

00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:08.879
dunked it in water, took it all apart, and then it dried and then it fixed

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:14.680
itself. Yeah, I stole that from the office. No, no, I was just going to say this is adorable. Is this from when you

00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:16.720
were a kid? No, this is actually Oh,

00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:21.680
okay. That might be worth more than the monitors.

00:02:19.480 --> 00:02:26.640
Probably. I mean, there's only one way to find out. Oh my gosh. We're not going

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:32.879
to count. Yep. We're counting money. Everything's

00:02:29.239 --> 00:02:32.879
content. Drum roll,

00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:37.160
please. $14.0042.

00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:44.160
I found two square Dell monitors.

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:50.160
Granted, they're Dell, not HP, so you know, whatever. Uh, but for $5, you can

00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:54.920
get We can get Vance's monitor set up

00:02:50.160 --> 00:02:54.920
for that spare change. Poo.

00:02:55.040 --> 00:03:01.239
It's cables. Random things. Well, there's no way you bought these. Okay,

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:06.640
why don't we get started? Obviously, the first thing

00:03:03.440 --> 00:03:08.480
we're going to do is unbox this monitor.

00:03:06.640 --> 00:03:12.000
Okay, even with a screwdriver sticking out of it, it's worth more than your old

00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:16.159
ones. Let's get this Let's get this fixed. All right, Vance, do you want to

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:19.599
unbox this? No. Trick question. You turn upside down. I unbox things, too. Okay,

00:03:18.239 --> 00:03:28.120
cool. So, this is what it's like to not be an assistant. I just stand and watch you.

00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:32.120
I'd like to think I actually do things,

00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:35.120
too. Here. Can you hold this? No. Not

00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:36.560
today. Clip this up. Oh, wait. No. We're

00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:39.840
probably going to use your I was just going to say you're not a very good assistant if you're not looking around

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:42.840
at how it's actually going to get set up.

00:03:43.440 --> 00:03:51.760
That's fair. Now, hold on a second. I see another monitor over here. Did it

00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:53.120
just like spawn or what? Your um your

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:57.519
lecture about the wonders of face of marketplace also brought me this. Oh,

00:03:55.080 --> 00:04:00.959
wonderful. Okay, cool. So, we're replacing both of your monitors. Yeah,

00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:04.959
cuz it's kind of mismatched if you have one that's worth a penny and one that's

00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:11.120
worth a lot more than Right. Yeah. Well, in fairness, it's worth 250 pennies. But

00:04:09.040 --> 00:04:14.799
this is great. He has no idea what to do with himself.

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:19.120
You just No, you just watch. You just watch. You just watch me. We watch me

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:22.639
struggle. This feels so wrong. This is like the opposite of what my everyday is

00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:26.880
supposed to be. I should have a coffee in my hand. I I think so. I think so.

00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:31.440
Maybe an assistant should get that for me. Oh, yes, of course. Hold

00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:37.280
on. Here. Put on your slippers. Put on No, no. I'll put on your slippers. There

00:04:32.880 --> 00:04:39.720
we go. Okay. How to make coffee. I think

00:04:37.280 --> 00:04:45.040
I've got a bit of a cheat here because nobody cleaned up this. So,

00:04:43.520 --> 00:04:49.280
you're going to make coffee. You going to run it water through that again? No.

00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:53.440
No. I'm I just mean I could see how it's set up. Is this worth the Floatplane

00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:56.639
exclusive? Oh, I think there's going to be multiple Floatplane exclusives from

00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:59.759
this one. You can also watch Vance's meet the team on Floatplane. You can

00:04:58.320 --> 00:05:03.440
watch him talk about the first time he met me where I was super awkward. How

00:05:02.320 --> 00:05:08.160
good of a job do you think he's doing right now?

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:12.800
I am concerned and I would like to show him where the instant coffee packets

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:16.360
are. So, I need 10 to 15 g of coffee beans.

00:05:14.479 --> 00:05:21.680
I'm going to assume that this is probably about what you

00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:24.840
need. We're burning daylight over here and I'm

00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:34.000
just still waiting for my coffee. Sorry, sir. Don't call me sir.

00:05:29.880 --> 00:05:36.080
Okay, that looks like kind of Oh, no.

00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:39.680
There was There was more in there before. Well, okay. Well, then we just

00:05:38.400 --> 00:05:43.520
need to make sure we don't put too much water in. Yeah, I'm pretty sure this

00:05:41.840 --> 00:05:50.880
didn't work. I mean, I could just like ring it out. Go on, get in there. Get in there,

00:05:48.320 --> 00:05:58.000
buddy. Any good assistant would know how much sugar and uh and milk or cream to

00:05:54.800 --> 00:06:02.080
put in. Um, one of these has got to be

00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:03.600
salt. I'm pretty sure this one's sugar.

00:06:02.080 --> 00:06:07.120
Do you take sugar, milk? You know, I would love to appreciate your coffee

00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:11.919
exactly the way that it is. Okay. All right. Sure. Well, just in case you

00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:16.319
don't, here's this. Uh, I'll get back to work on the monitor, sir. It looks like

00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:24.319
coffee. It does look like coffee. It tastes like coffee. So, yeah. Great job.

00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:28.400
All right. Nice. Now, let's turn all of this off and upgrade the computer. Sir,

00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:32.639
I have only gotten as far as removing this back panel and looking at the back

00:06:30.880 --> 00:06:37.120
of this system, and I'm already deeply confused. What was that? So, for one

00:06:34.479 --> 00:06:42.000
thing, you've got a fan and RGB hub that is plugged into pretty much nothing and

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:48.400
is just hanging here loose. For another thing, you've got a single 120 mm

00:06:45.080 --> 00:06:50.240
radiator. You know that these are worse

00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:53.039
than just like using a crappy air cooler, right? Maybe you should have

00:06:51.440 --> 00:06:56.560
bought me a better PC. Maybe I should have Maybe I should have bought you a

00:06:54.880 --> 00:07:00.880
better PC. Yeah, I won this from the Christmas party, so I just transplanted

00:06:58.080 --> 00:07:07.360
it. Oh, this is one of the secret shopper

00:07:05.599 --> 00:07:13.960
machines. So, right now you're just dissing on HP, which is fine. Oh my god,

00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:18.560
this 12pin connector. It's got broken bits in it

00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:22.560
and the latch doesn't work. This is a fire hazard. Please tell me you got a

00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:28.160
new GPU as part of your upgrade. Yep. Okay, we've got a 9070 XT. I'm actually

00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:33.039
extremely happy to see that because I really don't feel very good about one of

00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:37.280
those connectors without having a without having some kind of a latch on

00:07:34.960 --> 00:07:41.280
it at the very very least. So, I'm basically just taking all these new

00:07:38.919 --> 00:07:46.319
parts and putting them in here. Then we're going to take these parts and put

00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:49.039
them in a Naz. Oh, super cool. Okay. Well, why don't we get Elijah to help

00:07:47.599 --> 00:07:52.720
with that? Hold on. I'm just going to clean this thermal compound off so we

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.319
can find out what this is. Open. Do you want to open? I love it. By the way, the

00:07:54.240 --> 00:08:01.280
half a piece of paper towel. Why do you need a full piece? I am all about that,

00:07:58.960 --> 00:08:05.000
dude. What the heck? That's going to be the most OP Naz ever. You've got a Ryzen

00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:10.080
7 5800X. I was told it could be done. I

00:08:07.440 --> 00:08:14.800
don't know. Yeah. Well, no. I Yeah, it can be done. I mean, it's not a problem.

00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:17.599
It's just like overkill. All right, here you go, Elijah. Oh, that's a cool case.

00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:22.800
I haven't actually seen this before. What is this? The Fractal Node 804. Oh,

00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:30.319
cool. Eight hard drives over here. Full-size

00:08:25.599 --> 00:08:33.120
ATX power supply, MATX motherboard. I am

00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:37.519
liking this. Let's have a look at our new hardware. There's not much out there

00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:43.519
that's a lot faster than the 5800X for gaming, but it looks like Vance found

00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:46.880
it. We're moving up to socket AM5 with a

00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:51.040
B650 Tough board, and we've gone with

00:08:46.880 --> 00:08:54.320
the 9800 X3D, the fastest gaming CPU on

00:08:51.040 --> 00:08:56.800
the planet. asterisk asterisk asterisk.

00:08:54.320 --> 00:09:03.600
He doesn't need 16 cores, so this will be just fine. Thanks, Andy. Yeah,

00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:06.080
indeed. Do you game much? What do you

00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:10.800
think? Based on my monitors? Well, see, that's the thing. Based on your

00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:14.720
monitors, I would say no. But based on your keyboard and mouse, I would say

00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:20.560
yes. But based on your chair, I would say no. But based on the fact that you

00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:23.040
prioritized getting a 9070 XT for this

00:09:20.560 --> 00:09:27.360
new build, I would say yes. I enjoy gaming. Okay. But like nothing

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:33.920
competitive clearly. What What are you going to play? Um God of War Last of Us

00:09:31.040 --> 00:09:39.720
Part Two. I am not here for the fast-paced twitchy

00:09:36.920 --> 00:09:46.160
things. Oh boy. We got like some DDR56000 CL30.

00:09:44.160 --> 00:09:50.640
This is a nice middle of the road, good bang for the buck memory kit. 32 gigs.

00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:56.360
It's about where you want to be today. For our cooler, we've gone with the Thermal Right Phantom Spirit 120 SE, I

00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:01.519
think. Right. Yeah. SE Black. I'm paying him to watch today. It

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:05.680
it hurts me. Not because I would do it any better or do it any faster, but just

00:10:03.680 --> 00:10:08.720
because it it feels wrong. Realistically, I think you're doing too

00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:12.399
much work right now, boss. I'd like you to have a seat over here and just you

00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:16.160
can just put your feet up right here in front of Elijah's work space. here.

00:10:13.920 --> 00:10:21.279
Yeah. No, no, no. He His needs are less important than

00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:25.519
yours. There you go. No, no, no, no, no, no. Don't move. Don't move. I will get

00:10:22.880 --> 00:10:31.279
around. Got his SSDs installed. One of them had this gigantic heat sink on it.

00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:35.200
Like, she's she's chunky thick. So, I put that one on top, and I'm hoping that

00:10:33.680 --> 00:10:39.519
there will be no clearance issues with the back plate on my GPU. But overall, I

00:10:38.160 --> 00:10:44.000
think this is pretty much ready to go in the case. Did you take out the old

00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:49.120
thermal content or it does not matter? Uh, it doesn't really matter. I mean,

00:10:46.560 --> 00:10:53.040
unless this is like dry and crusty. It's a little dry and crusty. Where's your

00:10:50.560 --> 00:10:58.959
paper towel? Uh, it's just don't use a whole piece. I was going to say rip it

00:10:55.680 --> 00:11:01.040
in half. Rip it in half. Okay. I didn't

00:10:58.959 --> 00:11:06.800
realize it was like a big deal or something. What? Lengthwise? Yes. What

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:11.519
kind of a psycho are you? What the? The seam is here, so I ripped it in half.

00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:15.360
What do you mean? Otherwise, I'd have to rip the whole sheet off and then rip it

00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:22.160
in half. It's like people that bite. Oh my god. Elijah, no.

00:11:18.160 --> 00:11:23.360
What? You go down. Oh, cross. Well, now

00:11:22.160 --> 00:11:28.160
that's a quarter though, I guess. Yeah. Perfect. That's all you get. Vance, when

00:11:25.760 --> 00:11:35.839
are we allowed to break for lunch? Then you're done. Everything.

00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:38.480
Okay. I do not sound like that. Sir.

00:11:35.839 --> 00:11:41.680
Sir. Hold on. Let me try that again. Sir,

00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:47.440
respectfully, that is not a very accurate imp. I believe that is I feel

00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:51.120
my feelings are hurt by that impression of me. Okay. Wait, this is interesting

00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:56.959
because are you saying everything up until now was an accurate impression of

00:11:52.800 --> 00:11:59.279
you? Ooh, Keith got you there. No. Oh,

00:11:56.959 --> 00:12:02.160
Vance, please. Oh, sorry. Wait, what just happened? Well, I need to ask him a

00:12:00.880 --> 00:12:05.760
question. Oh, you can ask him a question. Yeah, just approach. Eyes

00:12:04.079 --> 00:12:11.120
down. Okay. an approach, sir. Yes. Okay. Now,

00:12:09.839 --> 00:12:15.360
now you can look up. I might have screwed up. How badly do you need that

00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:19.680
GPU in your NAS? What? The GPU goes in the NAS. It's not the right size. Oh,

00:12:17.760 --> 00:12:24.079
ball sack. The problem is that this is a by8 card.

00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:29.600
Yeah. And the slot that we intended to put it in is by four. Ah, there is a

00:12:27.040 --> 00:12:34.240
block at the back of the slot. We could remove that for you though, sir. Is that

00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:38.600
sketchy? Yes, sir. Worst case scenario, I stab the knife

00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:42.160
into the motherboard and it's destroyed. Well, at least it's on

00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:44.800
camera, so then I can get a new one, right?

00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:52.200
Sure. I'm ready to try

00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:57.440
again. See that right there? Okay, that's a solid maybe. I think it

00:12:55.920 --> 00:13:01.279
might work. So, how is there a quick way for us to check this? Okay, storage

00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:09.079
controller. Can you not move the monitor? Oh, it makes it really hard.

00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:12.639
LSI adapter SAS 2 2008

00:13:09.079 --> 00:13:16.480
Falcon. Seriously, you gave him an HBA

00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:17.920
that is as old as his monitor.

00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:22.320
I keep sticking with the theme, you know. But this isn't actually the one,

00:13:20.079 --> 00:13:26.480
right? This is what this from Logistics. Yeah, we ordered one on eBay and I think

00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:30.320
we got scammed, so we just took the one from Logistics instead. Oh, that's not

00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:34.000
what I heard. No, it just never like showed up. Boom. Oh wow. Speaking of

00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:39.040
showing up, there's our hard drive. Let's go. All right.

00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:45.320
Successful mod complete. I like this choice of power supply. We went with the

00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:48.399
RM series from Corsair, specifically the

00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:50.320
RM850X Shift, which makes it a little

00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:55.600
bit easier to access all the modular cables since they're on the side in a

00:13:52.800 --> 00:13:58.800
case like this. I do, you know, just because how things have gone, feel a

00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:03.760
little bit of discomfort with these little mini connectors, but so far

00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:08.600
Corsair hasn't had any issues with the RM series. So, good luck everybody. Now,

00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:14.160
let's go ahead and install our Radeon 9070 XT. This is AMD's current gen

00:14:11.920 --> 00:14:18.880
top-of-the-line. Great for 1440p rate tracing or even light 4K gaming. Not

00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:23.800
that Vance's monitor game is going to push it to its limit. Okay, boss. Okay.

00:14:21.680 --> 00:14:30.480
Why did I get out of my seat? He's learning. He's learning to

00:14:27.839 --> 00:14:34.160
evaluate the cable management that you were criticizing before. Wait, you have

00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:38.639
to open the back. Pretty good. Pretty good, right? See, look. Pretty good. You

00:14:36.560 --> 00:14:42.880
have to open it first to really see it. Why would I want Why would I do that? So

00:14:40.959 --> 00:14:46.079
you can see if it's proper. Why you got to Man, why you got to look at the back?

00:14:44.880 --> 00:14:53.360
Well, can you at least tell me if the front is good? The front is fine. If

00:14:48.800 --> 00:14:54.800
front is good. The front passes.

00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:59.199
Yeah. I mean, that's better than it was. Yeah. That's as long as you need to look at it.

00:14:57.920 --> 00:15:03.680
All right, let's get this thing hooked up. Man, if you ever have one of those

00:15:01.199 --> 00:15:08.720
days where you feel like everything I did today was pointless, just remember

00:15:06.079 --> 00:15:12.920
I'm right there with you. I spent my entire day making this gorgeous computer

00:15:11.040 --> 00:15:19.199
so that I can put it in here where nobody will ever see it. So,

00:15:16.560 --> 00:15:22.800
don't feel bad. Everything you did was more important than what I did. We're

00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:28.399
only putting three drives in. These are eight terabyte drives, though. And we're going to put it in RAID five, which will

00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:31.680
give us about 16 TB worth of storage, which is more than what Vance is using

00:15:29.760 --> 00:15:35.120
on Google Cloud right now. And of course, he'll have the option to add

00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:39.040
four more drives in the future. Five? Oh, yeah. Five more drives in the

00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:43.920
future. Thank you. Quick maths. Is this the new keyboard, Vance? Yep. All right.

00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:48.160
Cool. And how did you choose this? Other than that, it's cute. It looked cute.

00:15:46.560 --> 00:15:51.680
Okay. Hey. And it's And it has quieter switches. No. No. You can't. That's

00:15:49.920 --> 00:15:54.959
work. Oh, wait. No. What do you think you're doing? I have to get this. Um,

00:15:53.519 --> 00:16:00.720
but okay. I have a question for you. I have a question for you. Now that we're back in the kitchen. Yeah. Give it to me

00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:04.720
straight. Out of 10. How bad was that coffee? It's like if uh if my nephew

00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:08.480
gave it to me who's like 4 years old, I'd be like like, "Oh, yeah. Like that's

00:16:06.079 --> 00:16:12.199
great coffee. Thanks." And I'd be like, "This tastes so good."

00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:20.880
As for me, take the last peel off. And we're going to slide Mance's little Naz

00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:22.320
box nicely just beside his TV stand. We

00:16:20.880 --> 00:16:26.720
had to move this anyways cuz we think the new TV is actually going to overhang

00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:29.839
his TV cabinet. So, I don't know. It kind of fits nicely here. I realized

00:16:28.160 --> 00:16:33.839
Lionus covered the CPU that was in this and we didn't go over the rest of the hardware. If you're curious, here's the

00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:37.680
list right here because it was from the past Secret Shopper episode. The only

00:16:35.920 --> 00:16:41.600
difference we did was put that LSI card in so he can get more drives. Yeah,

00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:45.440
we're going to replace the TV. Now that Lionus is in here, I'm actually doing

00:16:42.880 --> 00:16:48.880
work cuz he can't stop me. The good news is I finally got to the installer and we

00:16:47.199 --> 00:16:53.040
saw not only his boot drive, but all three of those hard drives. So Lionus'

00:16:51.199 --> 00:16:59.759
kind of jank job to get that LSI card working worked and it's setting up right now.

00:16:56.880 --> 00:17:07.360
Yippee. Holy crap. This is a much bigger TV. Much better, you mean? Yeah. What is

00:17:02.560 --> 00:17:09.199
this TV? Uh, it's an LG C4. Oh, okay.

00:17:07.360 --> 00:17:13.199
Yeah. going OLED. And why did you get this one? Cuz ratings said it was pretty

00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:16.640
good. I think almost every upgrade where people have gone TVs, they've got an LG

00:17:15.280 --> 00:17:20.880
C something, whether it's been like the C2 or the C3. And I guess we're on C4

00:17:19.520 --> 00:17:26.319
now. Well, now it's actually C5. So, this is the old one. Oh, it was

00:17:23.520 --> 00:17:30.799
explosive. Oh, wait. We should put in the No one's

00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:35.520
going to get that one. Yeah. Yeah. C4. Haha. Plastic explosive. Woohoo. So

00:17:33.280 --> 00:17:39.520
funny. Okay. You didn't have to go that hard. That's fine. I'm working on

00:17:38.080 --> 00:17:42.799
getting his NAS configured. So, we're having the SMB share. That way, he'll

00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:46.880
have all his stuff. I like the name of his drives. His SSD is called Fast Stuff

00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:50.640
and his hard drive is called Slower Stuff.

00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:55.679
Hey, it's practical. He's not wrong. Right. We got to talk

00:17:53.360 --> 00:17:59.679
about the chair. Yes. Have a seat. Have a seat right over there.

00:17:57.919 --> 00:18:05.919
Oh, okay. Try gaming.

00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:08.880
Well, well, I'm trying not to do work today, so I'm fine. Well, no, no, it's

00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:12.000
okay to game. You can use your computer to game. Why do you have three displays

00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:18.720
showing up? Cuz it's plugged into Oh, that's right. It's plugged into the TV. Nice. Oh, dang. This is going to be

00:18:15.679 --> 00:18:20.720
awesome setup. Yeah. Going to be It is.

00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:27.520
It is. It's already so good. It just needs a robot vacuum. Wo. Good thing we

00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:31.360
have one for the upgrade. What made you choose the Robo Rock? It was on Costco

00:18:29.760 --> 00:18:35.440
and it comes with extra pads and filters. And I hear that Robbo Rock is a

00:18:33.840 --> 00:18:41.120
good brand. This is also your second one already, right? Yeah, I hear that Robbo

00:18:38.320 --> 00:18:44.240
Rock is a good brand. So, I'm learning for myself whether it is a good brand or

00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:48.160
not. Cuz the first one you bought apparently broke right away and we had

00:18:45.919 --> 00:18:51.600
to RMA it and we got this one back. Yeah. I ran it like a few times and it

00:18:50.320 --> 00:18:55.760
was totally fine. And then one morning it decided to say, "Hey man, your wheels

00:18:54.000 --> 00:19:00.320
are suspended. They don't work." And I'm like looking at it and it's not

00:18:57.919 --> 00:19:04.080
suspended. And it's okay. Factory reset and all the things did not do anything.

00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:09.400
This is quite the endorsement. So, this does mopping as well? Yep. Oh, very.

00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:22.640
What's happening? What is happening? I don't know. What did you Elijah? Why did

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:27.440
you screw up setting up this computer? Why did you break his PC?

00:19:25.760 --> 00:19:34.160
No, it's off. It's just It's just off.

00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:40.640
Hey, Vance, maybe don't turn it off. Thanks for the advice. Great tech tip.

00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:44.400
Did Did you Did you No, I didn't turn it off. I just booted the game. That was

00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:47.039
it. Are you sure? I'm pretty sure. While Linus troubleshoots that, me and Vance

00:19:45.840 --> 00:19:50.559
are actually going to check out the TV here. What do you normally watch when

00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:55.120
you're in their living room here? We watch a lot of food videos. Cool. Let's

00:19:52.799 --> 00:20:01.200
watch this 2020 LG OLED. The black. It has honey. That's food. Yeah. Okay. It

00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:05.679
does look actually really good though. You guys aren't very good at this. It's

00:20:03.360 --> 00:20:10.799
terrible. Yeah. I know. Oh my. I I need to do like

00:20:08.080 --> 00:20:17.200
YouTuber reaction. Yeah. Like YouTuber. Oh, I'm Linus Tech Tips. Whoa.

00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:21.039
Oh my god. DDU to the rescue. Sony Interactive Entertain. Oh no, it turned

00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:26.600
off. Okay, we have a bad power supply. Well, Reese just went down to get the

00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:26.600
new power supply, right? Yeah.

00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:34.159
Smell burned or anything. Like, I don't know, man. If it's not the power supply,

00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:39.039
then we're in trouble. Okay, I'm pretty sure this is it. This is the moment. New

00:20:36.080 --> 00:20:39.039
power supply.

00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:46.720
And oh, Sony

00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:49.200
Interactive. Save the water.

00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:52.080
And it turned off. No. What? You got to be kidding me.

00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:58.400
I am becoming open to the idea that

00:20:56.320 --> 00:21:04.159
maybe I screwed up the installation of the heat sink. I don't think I did that.

00:21:01.520 --> 00:21:09.679
I have only once in my entire time working on computers, making videos

00:21:05.760 --> 00:21:13.280
about computers, um left a sticker on um

00:21:09.679 --> 00:21:16.400
or not installed thermal compound. I

00:21:13.280 --> 00:21:18.640
think once of each of those. Um in

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:24.720
general, it's not a thing I do, but you know what? Anything's possible. Let's

00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:27.679
see. Maybe maybe it's me. Maybe it's a

00:21:24.720 --> 00:21:31.159
thermal emergency shutdown whenever we launch a game.

00:21:35.840 --> 00:21:44.000
All right. Give me that white power supply back. Hey, while I was working on

00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:46.000
that, you guys did this. We did.

00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:49.600
Is this your Is this This your new house? Yeah. For gaming? Yeah. Yeah. For

00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:54.799
gamers, you should probably remove the stickers on the bottom. I would. It's new. Yeah. Yeah, I would. I should. You

00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:59.000
should. Yeah, you should do that. I should do that. Well, someone should do

00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:59.000
that.

00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:05.120
How's your game running for you there, Vance? Great.

00:22:02.679 --> 00:22:09.360
It's It looks better than it did before, for sure. But I didn't really have

00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:13.600
issues with it. Vance's tech tips. Better than it was. Well, it's better.

00:22:11.760 --> 00:22:17.200
It's better than before. What about on the TV? I mean, that's one of the

00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:22.080
coolest things about this setup is that you can just like drag it over and boom,

00:22:20.159 --> 00:22:28.559
TV gaming. Oh, here we go. Let's go. Oh, dude.

00:22:27.280 --> 00:22:32.240
There's this really cool application called uh sound switcher or audio switch

00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:37.280
or something like that. Basically, you can set up a hotkey and then it just lives in your system tray and then you

00:22:35.360 --> 00:22:40.799
tell it when I press this hotkey, switch between these audio inputs. So, it'll be

00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:45.360
really quick to just be like tick tick and then nice, boom, you've got your

00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:49.360
audio over on the TV. That's cool. Um, dude, this is awesome. You don't even

00:22:47.280 --> 00:22:52.120
have to Why even bother having a nice chair, right? I could have stuck with

00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:57.280
this. You could have stuck with the stool, but I mean, realistically, and

00:22:55.120 --> 00:23:01.760
what? Save budget for what? You've already got one of the best TVs on the

00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:08.480
market. You've got a sick gaming rig with the 9800 X3D and 9070

00:23:05.159 --> 00:23:10.120
XT. Dude, this is sick. Going to be

00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:16.559
good. And also a robot vacuum. Yeah. Did I miss

00:23:13.600 --> 00:23:22.400
anything? Whoa, kid. Jeez. Okay. What'd you get? An S25. Oh, nice.

00:23:20.280 --> 00:23:27.280
Yeah, it's actually not for me. It was It's for Chantel. Oh, nice. Yeah, I was

00:23:25.120 --> 00:23:31.280
noticing you didn't get her anything. Oh, hold on. Hold on. Wait. No. Okay.

00:23:29.679 --> 00:23:34.640
Technically, there's also a curling iron and a straightener. So, because she's

00:23:33.600 --> 00:23:38.880
indecisive. Is that what you're trying to say? Or No, it's just like covering covering all the grounds, you know,

00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:43.919
every every every whatever you want to do. This guy with the coffee jabs, it's

00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:48.480
constant around here. Anyway, massive shout out to AMD for sponsoring AMD

00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:53.120
Ultimate Tech Upgrade. And if you guys are looking for more of these kinds of

00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:58.799
fantastic shenanigans, I don't know, why don't you go watch Ariana's? There's

00:23:55.799 --> 00:24:01.200
bunnies. Cute and plants. And Elijah

00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:04.799
gets concussed. Oh, that's the one. That's the one down the stairs.
