Over the last while, we've learned a lot about plastic, especially clear plastics.
Do you want to walk us through that?
He wouldn't shut up before we rolled the camera.
Oh man, sorry, dear in the headlight moment. But I do want to redo that again, just because I didn't see it on this camera.
I saw it on this, it would be nice to... Okay, so what do you want me to go?
Just a little higher, closer to your neck. Exactly that, yeah. Keep wassing your screws.
So what ends up happening is this beautiful united floor.
I can't do it normally now.
Oh man, this blooper reel is going to be behind the scenes of...
Anyways, oh, okay.
We have the combined age of teenagers, right?
Is that what you want? Okay. What's the money shot?
Dammit, there's a lot of S's there. Okay, I might need someone else to just take this, I don't have anywhere to put it.
Except my butt.
Nobody wants it there. You can't see me!
That's good. F***ing terrible. Someone be ready to catch this, I guess.
Wait, but that's past Linus. I know. Everything's future Linus.
Alright, go for it.
Thanks, future Linus. Unfortunately, the pieces that we need to start with are in my hand.
Sort of.
I don't know where those went. I'll try to organize them into a bag.
Because I had them in the bag there.
Ah, s***. Check upstairs in 105 as well.
See if they got left behind there, because we had the whole case in there.
Okay. It would be basically on the table, the center table section.
Okay.
Here. Because like we have like three more hours of shooting.
Like we're not finishing before when. Look at this.
We started with a bunch of pieces of acrylic, and now we have kind of a crappy case made of acrylic.
Wow. That guy goes in next, and the studs point out.
Yes. Like that. You're good.
Do we have a moisture problem in the warehouse Linus? Not that I'm aware of.
We got leaks in the roof all the time.
Okay, listen.
Quality second hand building, okay? You want shorter ones for that.
I do. These ones? Not the long ones.
We will run out of long ones if we are not careful.
Okay. We might need to loosen some screws and tolerance.
I don't think that's the problem. Hold on.
It definitely fit okay before. I mean you dealt with old cheap Chinese cases.
Does Golden Fields ring a bell? Golden Fields, no.
Well we had all of our house brand end gear stuff.
So what I mean was Golden Fields the OEM?
Maybe, but I never knew.
Oh dude those end gear cases were horrible. Remember Raid Mags?
Yep. I think they're like still around.
Yep. So is Apivia. Apivia.
Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time.
A long time. One of their power supplies was in one of the secret shopper pre-builds.
I can't remember which one. Oh that's right!
Totally forgot about that.
Apivia. Okay, yeah here.
This is very back heavy so I'm just going to put this here.
It makes it.
I mean yeah, that's really tight. Yeah, it makes it.
I was going to check the supplies first. Yeah, okay.
Neat. Oi! That was a good noise.
The tolerances, well okay.
Actually no because I guess high tolerances would mean sloppy manufacturing.
So they have low tolerance.
No, they have high tolerance. So they are...
You know what? It doesn't matter. The point is I need to get the screw in.
Yeah, I'm on my unboxed therapy arc. So we have Linus and Linus later.
I mean we threw to Future Linus from Future Linus so...
That's true. I feel like you should say that's a Future Linus problem
and then we can like get a quick clip of you in the workshop again
being like who me?
I don't think people are even going to catch it so it probably doesn't matter.
That's really funny if people were actually not second screening this.
Watch this, I don't even need a scope. Wow!
No, okay I'm not that close.
Terrible. Why do you guys let me get away with this stuff?
Watch on that note.
We'll probably want to plug this guy in as well then.
What the heck?
Oh, please tell me some of these have daisy chains on them. We don't have enough RGB headers
because the CPU block and the GPU block... The CPU block is going to go off of this one.
That's what we decided earlier.
Oh. And then... Brilliant.
Now you're good, I figured it out. Brilliant.
Brilliant! Yeah. Okay, so let's cut off the Sharpie mark.
Do we bring a bandsaw or something? On the floor.
Nice! Floor saw! You can use it to cut up your floor chicken.
Many years ago I asked us to switch to bins that are more aesthetically pleasing,
but we just couldn't find any. So if anyone ever finds an aesthetically pleasing bin
for us to put crap in on set, very open to it.
You wouldn't believe how much bins cost. Oh, I know.
You ever bought bins? Yeah. You're just plastic.
Like, stop putting on airs, you know?
Is there any secret to getting these bulkhead fittings tight? Yes.
Are you going to tell me? Well, it wouldn't be much of a secret then, would it?
Oh, okay. Sorry, I can't look.
No, there isn't. You just have to like...
Yeah, this is pretty tight. Good job. Okay.
That was awful. I tried twice to get this as one double-bend tube.
Oh, that's really hard. That's too tight.
I got it so close,
but the third time I'm like, no, no, I got to just put an idea on it.
Oh yeah, our fittings are over here in the non-aesthetically pleasing box.
Oh shoot, these tubes have twisted a little bit.
One sec.
They're loosening our fittings. Don't worry about it.
I'm loosening them to tighten them.
We're good. So you got to fill it through the silver one.
Then it works way better.
So then you're able to put all of that in.
Then you power cycle.
Then all the air cavities should be pulled out of the pump.
Those are very fast power cycles though. I don't think you're giving it enough time to...
Because otherwise all the water comes rushing out of these. That's right.
You know what happens when the water comes rushing is the Ukrainians suffer.
The dumbest part is they even had the multiple ports
on the reservoir here. They just didn't hook them both up.
It's because you need to be able to put it into the bottom one.
That's the one I added in order for the air to come out the top one.
Otherwise they just get jammed.
Oi! Sorry. One sec.
Yeah, you're good. Don't tighten it too much already.
I'm not sure if it's going to make it over here.
We made this panel.
No, the panel was part of the kit. This one?
Yeah. No, we just did the decorating. Oh, okay.
Well then that is truly an indictment of the
tolerances of this kit. Because it seems like we just grabbed the random panel and made it.
I think we got a Starfield control and I think Luke ended up with it somehow.
I don't actually quote me on that. I don't remember.
Oh, shoot. Nobody actually updated the drivers on this.
Cyberpunk crashed. Let's try one more time.
Should have been updated. I don't know. It says your graphics drivers out of date, blah, blah, blah, et cetera.
Yeah, Torvald's actually
posited an interesting theory
yesterday when we were chatting. He said he thinks that Windows is not actually that unstable.
But rather that the lack of ECC memory as part of the standard PC ecosystem
contributes to a perception that Windows is not stable
and that it's actually just a lot of unstable memory.
It's not that much more. No.
Do you have that platform that supports it too?
Well, I'll
Yeah.
Well, yeah, new Anno is out. Is it out? It is out.
Shut up. I think this week or last week.
Oh, the new Anno. Pax Romano or whatever it is. Okay, I'm going to have to try it.
Where's the volume slider? I just felt it. Where was it?
It's on the very back, isn't it?
How do I keep missing it? It's right there.
Oh, that's up. Oh, it's that way.
There we go. Okay, good.
As the performance. Oh, okay. Sorry.
Sorry.
Oh, yeah. Oh, not bad. Not bad.
Not bad. Not bad. Not bad.
Not bad.
