scrap yard wars is brought to you by the new dbrand grip learn more at the link
below
my hometown uh there's a better used market where i'm
at there's more population it's more of a hub of a lot of the
the the tech companies in the pc space there's there's
just parts everywhere it's easy to get parts micro centers there as well which
is really good in a pinch if you need a
really cheap part or really cheap CPU or something but i think ultimately
it would have been easier to get people to come to us if we could smooth talk
them because everyone has cars where it seems like most people we're interacting
with in vancouver don't have cars so it was really hard to get people to come to
us but just the used market as a whole being more full of parts that are
available would have made this i think a little bit easier
okay so yesterday yeah we wrote a bunch of emails at the end of the day hoping
they'd respond yes um never even mommy back right i'm like dude call me why
didn't you show up you know we can make this happen he flakes still not convinced that's not
Linus right but even if it isn't whatever it's right the bottom line is
it's not a thing yeah so i got an email from
two people here we got two emails um warning the card one of you still had
the graphics card and we're about to locate it so i gotta respond to him that
came in last night eleven and then this dave ebert's guy
he responded to me like right end of the day yesterday
uh he's out in port moody but he said he'll
come to us he says i will make it down before lunch time probably around 11 30
and you get the phone number going oh that's awesome yeah let's call them right now
at the beginning of today we still had to sell the graphics card we still had
to hopefully get the SSD from amazon and
we still had to acquire a better than just the Intel stock cooler CPU cooler
hello hey uh you emailed me about my gtx 660.
oh hey how's it going good good uh
yeah we're totally down um would you like to meet us like at my place or like
a coffee shop near here or something like that uh whichever doesn't matter to me
because they're easier for you i get probably a coffee shop i guess that's easier i don't know
um do you want to meet at bean around the world on granville yeah on granville
okay i'll figure it out cool and then meet there around 11 30 you were
thinking yeah i can do that i can uh yeah no problem i'll book down there uh
right now okay great okay i'll see you then see you then
wait cheers cheers all right so we're gonna have 82 bucks
that was easy 83. see and that's why it was we
decided yesterday it was going to be a risk like okay do we order the t2 now or
do we wait because we we could have still ordered
until like from an hour from now still got roughly about there yeah yeah but
now now we've started finding a big cooler
it's a 23-minute walk that's closer than where we went
yesterday to sell to pick up the card so there's the doc rap pro 3 it's normally
90 bucks so that guy would bring it to us for 80. so that's a big fat double
stack that might be worth getting i mean let me email that guy back right now
yeah and see like okay can you bring it to us for 80. yeah because that's his
asking price he says unfortunately because this was a response to the email
you wrote him yesterday when he said hey there i've been looking for something cool down my CPU
could you 70 bring it out to us or 60 if we go to you right
and then his response was hello unfortunately i'm not going to come out
to van for less than what i'm asking for if you're able to come to surrey i can
do 70. let me know it works for you so that works because i lowballed him a bit
so now we can just match his actually him doing us a favor and bring
it to us for the same price yeah i'm totally cool with that so i'm gonna
write him back and say we do need the 80 in pocket this guy sounds super legit
but i'm gonna write him back right now and even see if he'll agree to it yeah sure yeah we can always bail so
we might have legit nothing to do tomorrow like during the build phase
overclocking cleaning the system out let's hope it doesn't go pop
not blowing stuff up we can't spend all of our sanity
worrying about what the other team has so we just have to go with what we've
got put it together puts together but we need to just present it and either way
it was a lot of fun we'd like to win but again
as time goes on in this competition you really start to second-guess yourself
and then you your confidence kind of starts to diminish over time i think
that's kind of where we are right now so then it seems pretty
legit that maybe that wasn't him i don't think it was him there's always the
scrapbook wars conspiracy stuff it's the uncertainty that really makes
you start to wonder and then you start to believe this stuff in your head like well that's why this makes sense you
know because he would do that to make us lose time
so just an update on the amazon order for the SSD it went out for delivery
uh to the shipment center at 2 31 a.m
and then had its arrival scan at 401 a.m
and then was set out to delivery to bring it here at 7 10 a.m i have all
that on the amazon app so theoretically it's going to show up
don't know exactly what time but until we have that in hand we can't like
feel like we're done yeah i'm pretty sketched out and we're about to blow the
rest of our money on cooler oh yeah no if this doesn't show up we lose yeah
how are we with emails there's not a lot um
we do have a couple we do have a couple offers on the
monitor oh excellent but i would sincerely like to make sure that it
works before we uh before we sell it and we need to do some budgeting here man
because right now we had a solid plan for how we were gonna get
maybe unbeatable hardware but the problem was that we started the
day with the hardware that we needed to sell
to get the unbeatable hardware possibly not working um
okay if we hitchhike
both ways we have 62 dollars
okay that's what a two-hour hitchhike um no actually hitchhiking would
probably be faster than transit because it's a 45 minute drive one and a half
hour transit run okay yeah
so if we hitchhike both ways we have 62 dollars
which means that um we have to pay anything to the driver as
a compensation i don't think that's typical we could offer them some bread
it's really quite delicious only a couple hairs in it yeah
only a couple yeah i mean only one that we found
so the backup motherboard
we've got a phone number his day is wide open
and he would want to meet at a fairly nearby sky train station
so if we have to go get the backup motherboard assuming that we do actually
have a hundred dollars we can do it
still at 90 degrees yep yep
oh i think yeah okay we
maybe one of the pins on the CPU cooler just misaligned i think so because it's
like the push push pins i think it's going to be a simple fix we discovered
that one of the brackets was broken in half and also that was not allowing the
contact between the CPU and CPU cooler to be proper and our CPU was at like 90
degrees celsius unless we hold it down and
we're not gonna do that up until that point we thought that getting a new CPU
cooler was a nice to have not a must-have
now what we should do let's use our evga poster for our
hitchhiking sign i was wondering how we were going to get
paper going to surrey like do we how do we
suggest people that where we need to go we just type in going to
where we need to go no money need hardware uh oh the guy with the
zeon says oh no
if you can he could meet at brade sky train station but only if we can wait
till 5 30 or 6. no yeah no it's okay we'll just have to
we'll just have to do it to go there earlier or to go there or not to go at
all no no we have to go earlier
i think we got to do it i'm also hearing back from someone on
the monitor excellent um he says okay let me know how the other offers work
wait a minute did you tell them i didn't say there were other offers oh my god is
it the guys upstairs i wonder if they sent us multiple offers
that's okay though because we don't need any more money but it would
be nice right because
we don't have enough money for the motherboard no but we also don't
necessarily need the motherboard okay what's what's our team name um
we could go with dmitry tech tips
we could go with uh
Linus canucks we could go with
i don't know i'm kind of flexible let's do demetrius demetrius
but we need a Linus in there somewhere dude yeah i'm the us
oh i see okay so do me trust like this
yeah that actually has like kind of a power that's kind of a powerful name
on let go we just received two reviews
uh-oh my review johnny crow quick response is
still waiting for the purchase lots of questions at this point what oh i got
three three stars three stars and let go
and he's reviewed two of my purchases what maybe i should review them
yeah be like asks a lot of questions
bad buyer
no cash money here's the monitor powered on if you want to meet in the next 30
minutes i'll be around near vgh
can i get your email so we can text instead of email
oh we might be getting rid of the monitor right now sweet and where did
you find the cable for it uh oh i just borrowed one off of oh yeah your stuff's
not charging max
i want the shadow rock the shadow rock has a lot more cooling potential i think
so we're worried clearly yes
like quite worried that's not gonna quit if we if fish comes to shove we can use
two sticks get everything running or one stick to get everything running
and then at the workshop just dremel off
the parts that stick up on them but if it's heat pipes we can totally
no on the on the RAM oh
yeah we could do that because they're just fired yeah yeah we could do that we could just band it off
probably yeah i'm not really like second guessing our build i'm just trying to figure out
like the two ninety ti's is the thing that can be does i think
that's the only thing that could beat us
or three two nineties so
all of our stuff is gonna fit on our SSD once it shows up we're not worried about
storage space anymore which is good um this guy said he would come to us
where can we meet so it sounds me like he has a car right if
he didn't have a car he would like hey can you meet at this station yeah
probably he might end up being like oh can we
meet closer to a station but it sounds like he has a car yeah
um i'm also possibly not expecting to hear
from him until around three o'clock because if he's like i'm not free till
three maybe he'd just message me at work which i think we're safe to wait for
because we could still make it to ncax and back in that amount of time it's
only 26 minute walk it's not a big deal so we're gonna wait until we have a
backup if that drive for some some reason gets lost or doesn't show up
i'm all for just like leaving that one and not saying a thing
and let him find out when he watches i think really
dead serious if it were like single teams
that's exactly what i would do
Linus really badly wants to run ashes on a very high preset which is something
that we just like don't do because we still think he has sli yeah
probably because he's running sligh nine atis
not going that way that's the waterfront we don't want that
it's going this way yeah
550 we start considering other options
bus to ncix because they close at what
six um probably about then
yeah we have enough time to get there
barely that's all we got to do is get in the door right
you might end up being late though yeah but i mean saying as long as we get in
the door there right they close at six at like 5 55. he's like we need to we
need to but then we'd be late back
yeah i said a bunch of times we got to figure out what the penalty is if we're late
back today we can talk to ed
uh basically a scrap system that's like the
best we can get for like nothing yeah pretty much so that's why we were like
we wanted to get what's up man so you recognize us yeah yeah
we gotta bounce like immediately though yeah we gotta we gotta get on the bus now so thanks a lot man we appreciate it
it says 26 minutes on the bus from here
yeah so amazon delivery driver just called me
and was like hey i'm at your address it says the wrong
address by the way i verified it in the app it's right
um and like the owner of this house doesn't know who you are
and then the owner grabs the phone and it's like hey yeah i'm from this address
so i check my phone just to make sure that i type i said the wrong one check
the amazon app they're saying the wrong thing
he just tried to give the ssc to someone that wasn't asked luckily the guy that
you tried to give it to apparently awesome dude told them that
it wasn't the right place now the amazon driver is apparently driving to where we
are trying to go right now so hopefully the SSD will be here on
time hello
if you're facing the house um you should see steps that go down
and then there's like if you look to the right there's like a swinging bench
that's just inside the property it's the one on the left
it's the one on the left
it is the house on the left it is the unit on the left
sorry no do not take it back with you it's it's the house on the bottom floor
i i'm not entirely sure what to tell you it's actually not that complicated if
you're facing the houses if you look to your left
it is the one furthest to the left right yeah yeah
it's a grey fence there's a gray fence uh there's there's a step or two that
goes down and then once you look to your right there's two tiny little like kid-sized
chairs and then a wooden bench okay awesome if you leave it under the wooden
bench that would be great the address i guess got auto-corrected by amazon so it
actually was like slightly down the street instead of right actually here so
they ended up bringing it to the wrong house and then luckily oh my goodness
luckily the guy that was there was like my name isn't luke you brought this to
the wrong house so it's actually working out everything's going to come back together
in the last like half an hour right yeah it doesn't it's oh my gosh
it's on there i told him to put it under it but like
at least it's there oh
okay what so what time is it 5 40
at 5 40. we got our last part so we made it back with 20 minutes to
spare we got our
dark rock pro 3 which funnily enough when uh Linus and
dimitri were walking in i saw that they were also carrying a
black uh be quiet! box about this size so
it would be it would be pretty funny if we both at
the very last minute on the very um essentially last day got the same cooler
although i don't know how they got theirs because if they have the same one
because we only saw one listing for it so i wonder if they bought it new that
would be really interesting because i think this would be the first time that anyone brought anything new to scrap
there was also our SSD came in
there it is boom
120 gigabytes of SSD goodness
so we're good to go that's all of our parts tomorrow we need to install the
cooler install the SSD migrate all the files that are currently on our SSD over
this SSD and then it's just benchmarking time
let's go it is illegal to hitchhike
here oh
okay then we're screwed
we're a six hour hike
oh my god it's so far we have to transfer three times
and is this all buses bus train no and then bus
two buses and one train we might get away with one fare then
so we tell the bus we're getting on the train right we pay for the train
then we train bus
bus back onto the train and hopefully we're good yeah
as long as we're back on the same route to go back in the same platform yeah
okay okay
okay everything's getting real so i'm asking
the six core guy if you can bring it to coquitlam center which would probably
save us a fair back the girl with the combo for the CPU motherboard
and RAM is trying to negotiate on price but i'm
holding firm but what that would mean is that we
could sell that whole combo
for and fifty five dollars
which even after we go buy our motherboard again
would give us a hundred and fifty six dollars for a cooler so i messaged a guy
in richmond asking how much to deliver of course our
so we can find basically let's find every cooler we can and see if we can
pay someone 10 or 20 bucks to deliver deliver to us yeah
okay he just confirmed he can do it he can deliver
oh the zeon he's bringing yeah the guy zeon guys bringing it to the bus depot
we are almost there we are like a few stops
let's see yeah oh this is
exciting okay okay so so we gotta pay
him 150 450. let's get that ready okay sorry
hit me hit me before agreeing to sell our 960 and the
motherboard in the RAM combo let's verify that the xeon and the RAM work
yes on that motherboard and if they do work on that motherboard
should we still do the swap
the p60 is a better board and works with our high bandwidth bridge
i see okay but we should go get the p60
deluxe right from here okay before we even go back
we have enough money i
we do as long as we sell that stuff away
oh crap no i'm gonna ask that guy if he can deliver
okay they're negotiating they want 150 for the whole lot
what is that that's five dollars off
okay i can't meet until
late this afternoon though
okay so CPU motherboard RAM combo guy or
gal wants to meet at 5 30. so that's perfect
because by then we'll be done
at some point Linus and dimitri managed to get the motherboard seller to drop
his price 50 bucks down to an even 100
although it looks like even that might be just out of their price range oh is
it because we're paying this guy the delivery fee yeah did we already verify
that we have gonna pay him one wait wait hold on there's oh no it's a quarter
um oh shoot
hello so here's the CPU oh excellent here's a
RAM okay look at this
xeon w 3670 all right thank you
exactly that subscribe and we got the uh
ha ha no just kidding okay you got your money
looks fine i'm sure it's fine he seems like a trustworthy gentleman
all right so i have 150. awesome
i i i recognize your voice oh
and then this is for your fine way it's good are you sure yeah i'm are you sure okay
oh okay thank you so much take care
okay so
so he did not take the additional 475
which means which means we're good with money we got
exactly a hundred dollars but i already messaged the guy asking if he can take
okay we'll maybe write him back i'm just gonna be like yeah i found five bucks on
the side of the road okay okay yeah six core xeon guy
kind of saved our butts uh he didn't end up charging us to come and meet us at
the sky train station which was really nice
19. oh my god we're like a dollar short
we're less than a dollar short we're like we're like 20 30 short okay instead we
had 99.70 like 75 cents so i didn't feel too bad
about that yeah we're i think we're good if i message him back i'm like look we've got
99.70 he should be okay with that
i have 99
and 70 cents and 30 cents ain't one
um i'm super stressed out on our way to
meet the hundred dollar motherboard guy though because we couldn't get in touch
with him stupid me i didn't realize i actually
had a phone number after all but then i called the number
and it was like a landline and i was like
who uses a landline hi i was uh calling about that
motherboard and you said you were gonna try and get in touch with him yeah i just talked to mikey
here to pick it up and then meet you at the skytrain oh well that's fantastic um
great thank you where do you think you'll be there um
well we're at uh what station are you we're at brentwood town center now
and so we just need to transfer so we'll be there when we get there
the ncix broadway location is walking distance from my aunt's house and it's
actually uh no we won't have any money to buy it on the way back it's it's
our motherboard CPU RAM pump first so what we would have to do basically he's
arranged with that lady yeah
or should we get the motherboard go home and test it first and then agree to the
sale and then agree to the sale yeah i mean technically we've already agreed to
the sale so it's deciding whether to back out of the sale
right so we're okay with time yeah well our
bus transfers are still good for 40 minutes
this is so tense
i knew that Linus would be you know
luring me into the water situation by saying we will get you in water
but i was smarter than that i brought my own water for the whole day but i felt
bad because lioness didn't have any okay so we're meeting at the tnt
uh we heard from him while we were on the train i was like yeah did you get my
message about the 99 70 cents he's like no i didn't but it's cool okay don't
worry about it so that's great also get this this is only a 15-minute detour
even if our transfers expire so in 25 minutes even if we don't catch a bus
closer to my aunt's place we are still only 15 minutes out if we
walk compared to if we had just bust back to
her place so things are going things have worked out
really well right now best the best time to know the city is when you actually
get the public transport you explore via google maps walking yep cause otherwise
we're gonna have to walk back to my aunt's place so yeah
enjoy so we're meeting him right in front of
the tnt here
uh and he's coming on an electric scooter he said he was about six minutes
away about five minutes ago so any moment now let's get into a shadow
uh yeah good call
we always hide in the shadows
still no oh hi to the motherboard yes
all right cool
oh okay perfect wow that is quite the
packaging you got there
oh i love your hair
that's nothing i get comments all the time on the dick bud on the back of my car
okay so theoretically we can bus back and
it'll save us 20 minutes excellent do you want a bus or do you want to walk let's bus okay so um um
uh are we on the street where we can take the bus
okay here we gotta walk we gotta walk down abbott
okay rabbit right here yeah so this is this way
we gotta go wait so the tnt
is supposed to be on our left so we need to go this way you need to go
up yeah that way
so motherboard combo will meet us at ncix
but can't get there until 5 30 or maybe a little bit after
it's a 25 minute walk okay back to the house okay so here we go i said look if
you're a little bit late to be 100 honest the issue is that i
don't have the money to buy the thing until after we meet you so if you can
give me and my friend a ride to ncaa then it doesn't matter if you're
a few minutes late oh that's perfect what did they say
uh it looks like that's good to go
amazing what's up am i just running beside the
car no you'll get to drive yourself oh okay so we get to ncx store and we wait
for him this was at 5 30 so timing was very close we're freaking out a little
bit saw Linus on the poster at the ncx store so that was a little bit you know
he still had a little bit of messy hair and the screwdriver but then the guy
finally shows up we get our money run to the store to buy the CPU cooler which
was already prepared and we are on our way that was the last
piece of the puzzle for the build very happy how it turned out so dbrand
is calling their new case the grip for a reason
well a couple of reasons number one sitting on a plane or prop up your phone
watch a movie put it on your water bottle good idea oh
bad idea with a grip case
good idea reason number two let's say you leave your phone on the hood of your car or
something by accident you're getting in you don't want it to slide off while you're driving right
it's the grippiest case free king ever
reason number three actually nothing to do with the grip
part of it at all it just has full phone protection so you can like
scratch it around on stuff and do this and you can like drop it and whatever
you guys have been seeing it in scrapyard boars for three weeks you've
been asking for it and now it's finally here go buy a dbrand grip today at the
link in the video description heading into the final day luke and jay
aren't feeling too confident while but this is scrap yard wars then it ain't
over till it's over don't say the quote wrong don't say the
quote wrong but do you know what the quote is no
good job everyone just goes i am your father but he's correcting him yeah
yeah don't go that way it's are the fins over top that way
yeah yeah okay so
hey Linus where's the dremel
is it like probably upstairs
okay okay so what you can probably do right now
is leave one fan off put two of these in
and just keep going and then i'll work on modding
what's the least unsafe way to do this
did actually hit you
you know that's staying
luke hurt himself he's gonna file a claim
um i don't think i'm gonna bleed
yeah no it's already bruising pretty intensely though
it's gone it broke
the stem of it broke
me neither so the stem of it came right off i think
we were sabotaged it fired out and hit me in the shoulder
dude that looks so much nicer than even needs
to that's awesome now at this point they're both supposed
to be benchmarking but it seems like both teams still have some finishing
touches to put on but i would still always recommend
even an aio just because of the ease of installation
oh yeah well that's the biggest thing with the aios in my opinion
remember we bought the be quiet! cooler on your recommendation
it's going to perform very well i told you that the mounting mechanism was
shite but you wanted the dual tower
yeah so which way do we
which way do we go maybe you're just a big be quiet! fanboy
i am such a pain in the butt
i just hate having so much memory i can't get at the 8 pin with this
stupid ginormous cooler in here it's like why are water coolers popular when
they don't perform better this is why the cable bones connected to the header
bone the header bone is connected to the motherboard bone
the motherboard bone is connected to the case bone
the case bone is connected to the table bone
the table bones connected to the floor bone
i think this is probably the first scrap yard wars where i regret nothing so
Linus i have i have a gift for you you have a gift that is going to be
used to either for you to keep for yourself or use as
an accessory for this case oh
that is beautiful and you know what
i don't think it counts as being part of the system if we put it next to if we
put it next to the system yes and
right this is so great
look at look at this
look how cute it is
it's not turning so maybe now that we know why it was so tight
okay it's good
it's off it's shutting down starts off
i could start playing with the overclock down there on the CPU
uh if you want to but i need the system drive so you wouldn't be able to test it
no but i can at least start checking where i can boot sure you want me to do
that save some time yeah okay so right now
i'm hoping that paragon disk image software
works on Windows 8
because my computer is still Windows 8.
paragon disk image software which is what we're planning to move all of the
stuff from our test drive to our actual drive
uh doesn't work on Windows 10. so
we're going to see if i can mirror everything over
using Windows 8 as the host drive
did you just leave the benchmarks or
yeah like we have a drive that works it's just not our drive
so like if i can verify that our SSD
works then they might be cool with us just using
the other one because it's not actually impactful on performance
but i want to like i haven't even verified that it works
yet and so like if i haven't verified that it works they'll be like what because
that's fair if they're higher than 85 of our score i'll be pretty surprised well
we've got some really important stuff to do while this is running where do you want to put this
you you choose it you choose the place of honor
here let's see well normally i'll i'll man
the glue gun it would go like here but that's not really visible right yeah do
you want it kind of like we need like a place of honor yeah we'll like cover up
and it might get stuck in here though it's kind of a perfectly good you know
case yeah what if it was the dial it was the dial
for oh yeah if you want an extra like turn hit that's that's perfect do you
like that yes let's do it that means that we're ruining 920. um
i think it's okay yeah okay and this is 100
so yeah okay so we're gonna position it square yeah so it's perfect i like it
that's how you know it's the correct let it uh let it cool a little bit
what wait what is that
okay i'm gonna just position this guy here for now
we'll just we'll step it back a little bit and uh we'll be glad that we ran
these benchmarks before we had to submit to judging
you okay there it is
it works fine
yep it works great okay so they might be cool with us just using it
uh in the interest of saving time yeah sure we'll we can we can bend the
rules i would consider that bending as long as their SSD actually works and
could hold all the stuff if it came to that
okay um i think after this coin and after this
thing finished
all right so there's a little there's a little present for the judges
you know oh it gets stuck jammed yeah
did we oh crap no it ate our
no way this is like an arcade machine oh i see it ate it do you uh have a little
yeah uh i can see it right there guys we need the pliers back
oh my god are they magnetic
i don't remember if two knees are magnetic oh oh wait wait
i fixed it no we're good we're good
oh no i don't need them thanks ed
luke quit panicking
but i feel like i'm going to leave the voltage higher higher
and okay right
pretty much
okay oh crap it does melt it a little
um what
did that just with your system may not what happened
what what
you know what i'm kind of getting cold feet
on the uh on the CPU okay oh my god okay let's just
i'm just gonna dial it back a couple notches
just the last thing i want is for us to not
run our benchmarks
yeah if we if we don't go back default if we don't complete yeah i think we
have to go back to stock right okay so it's better which would be really bad
actually for our config there we go
now that is a control knob
we're ready to test a benchmark you can test the benchmark i mean you're just
gonna have to test it
are they ready yeah are they ready
ahead guys yeah hit it just check now we'll check
our options here
it would really suck it would suck for us to be like okay we're done when they let us use that
drive i know i don't really want to do that because
yeah i think we'll continue
how much longer do you guys think you need
because we're like i don't want to say the magic word
to trigger ed we are in a state at which we could do
things um but you guys were
bros about the drive things we don't want to you over
we could sit down for a little while we are a state at which we don't need to
touch the computer uh for for any major uh significant
reason okay cool that sounds like you're ready to i don't
know words that start with r no i'm still eating lunch we're good okay we're
good we're ready okay we are ready for them to meet the
demetrius the god of the god of gaming
what green beast all right come on
wow this is rather anti-climactic do better next time a prime
what the hell is that
now it's time to see which one of these is the more powerful build
demetrius or the green machine
is that our dark rock pro it is not we went and got that at the exact same time
you guys got yours we didn't know like 10 minutes earlier getting the exact
same item and we're really curious as to where you got yours because this was the only one like that we found online what
do you mean the only one this was the only dark rock pro 3
on the craigslist uh oh well we bought ours at a store i
thought so see i called that actually we got enough money so we can buy yeah
that's right yeah is that one of your phones we have so
much sponsor money from putting really money our d brand phone oh yeah look
around the back yeah wait we already have a fiber yeah
oh you got some fiber what
oh he's putting his d brand d brand all
right i can counter this i can sell up i can
sell out harder than you brandon where's your big things
your big flags
hold on here
here's our dbrand macbook and alienware
and here's my personal phone which also has
dbrand dimitri dimitri where's your macbook
i don't have anything
who who can sell out harder
yeah that's right oh yeah all that dbrand
your personal phone is skin too isn't it okay okay yeah
yeah well i have like whole d brands
for you benchmarks we've got cinebench and adobe media encoders
i bet our system is pretty different from what you guys think it is
yep i bet i bet your system is super slow
well that's not really a bet when you're making an observation
actually it's not that no it's not that far off is it well we started uh it's behind i didn't
realize he started it when he did yeah we started first
oh this one i don't think it's enough
well these this is a slow pass here though down this right hand side oh
okay what happened there
okay we're done what do you guys got
9 33 9 12. oh
wow so for the camera
the way the scoring works though is that by being 20 points behind
that's only two percent so effectively we get 10 marks they get
9.8 this is really close
okay um game still open for you guys yeah uh
yeah okay okay three
two one go
okay this time we started at the same time so it should be a fairer fight
we're already ahead it's crazy
303 236.
and i think our bar's ahead of theirs too
it's kind of hard to tell to be fair but yeah i think we're like a scene behind
holy crap no we're quite a bit behind they're like here
oh oh no
what are the rules on that is it three questions i think you have to try again
okay i think you have to just kind of like
really that's right that's what we were testing
yeah okay okay
so after the CPU benchmarks the green beast is ahead by three percent
three two one
i think this is where we're gonna lose our three percent one where we're gonna
be like rip good game
gg i certainly hope so although we did load
faster that's just i know
that's like one of the hardest yours is so slow at loading
well you know what it isn't how you load the game it's how
you play the game get a more proper process if you need all those FPS to
catch back up you know mr proper processor we won one of the CPU
benchmarks straight up oh yeah because that was fun
also you were telling me about how this is always choppy because of the um
i didn't say choppy i just said that part of the test you said it always does
that i mean it clearly doesn't always do that because 35 FPS was so fast
i mean if we want that cinematic look you know what though that works the FPS
luke oh really the FPS does it still work
the FPS is not as high as i expected it to be though
uh it's pretty monstrously high and it's higher there so
i don't know what you're talking about man
like something it could have throttled
oh yeah that drop that dropped like 600 points okay
you guys can run it again if you want you you guys can run it again if you want
i'm uh you know known to be to my own detriment
pretty lenient with the other team
if they need more time do you like our symbolic uh
how did you get one wait you brought that okay that's not actually part of
our system but our system has another really crazy trick because i bet you
haven't even seen it so far look well there it is
whoa there's a system where'd it go
bam oh my god i'm i was wrong about your
platform i wonder if i was right about your platform before you changed it
but i'm i was wrong about your platform no way no for sure
that's closer to what we got before 54.66
you guys are probably around six thousand let's see well why don't we
find out what's six thousand two hundred seventy
whoa
oh damn
okay so fire strike score we got 7
929 and the green beast pulled in 5
462. so that puts us
at 4.8 and then four point four so we
went from being three percent behind to just under ten percent ahead
three two one hit it
i never run fire strike so i legitimately actually don't know what they're running
oh yeah okay that makes a little bit of sense because it should actually be
pretty obvious but if you don't run fire strike if that
makes sense like the system didn't lock the game just stopped going oh is the system
working yeah we have the cursor control delete
okay well i'll let you guys uh let you guys figure out your stuff there
but i think it's uh i think the audience would know which
machine they'd want to be using by this point in time
everything's so smooth here i know everything's just going exactly
according to plan you know what maybe theirs is going
according to plan too maybe our plan was just to have everything run perfectly
and their plan was to kind of you know dick around you should call them team
green machine dick around mobile uh so part way through the ashes of
singularities ashes didn't even technically freeze
though because the cursor came up yeah so it just like stopped the benchmark it
was like a soft lock and then i went to go kill it with control delete and it
didn't say that it was hanging yeah
you know what we do have a ups shut it down again let's just make sure
maybe you guys are just kind of borderline confident that everything's going great the whole time both of us
that's because demetri is a yes man well if things were going the way that
they were going for us you'd have been a yes man too
i don't know why'd you make a last-minute switch in your whole system it was not a last-minute switch yeah it
was a planned switch last minute
i like this guy that is some
that is some world-class spin doctoring right there
all right guys average frame rate all batches 50.0 what
do we want to verify settings are you sure you did it right
it's nothing worth it's nothing that we are exploiting let's just say the
developers are actually there's a specific reason why a lot of people use ashes uh when testing multiple gpus that
are on a certain team okay well why don't we move on to rise
of the tomb raider so with the way it's going right now
green beast is about five percent ahead at 6.8
versus 6.5 yeah i know and one of them is heavily
you know leaning the other way yeah we'll still lose but that's fun it makes
you closer
it's hard to there's just a lot of stuttering on both sides anyway
when it looks over that mountain it likes to do that even with really good systems
when you're inside the cave let's see what happens i saw a bunch of stuttering
right there but we also get the wrong screen we had a bunch of wobbling too
yeah okay oh i saw they're stunning on my
side yeah it should i didn't see anything
what do you think Linus what's your opinion you're more in the middle than anyone i think ours is running smoother
but i don't think it's by as much as i'd like our benchmarks going to end significantly sooner overall it's only a
53.4 61.61
that's a significant amount so i think they're gonna be ahead by like five percent again
hold on it hasn't it hasn't updated yet so we got 61.61
and they got 53.4 which puts us at a dead heat
what the heck 8.2 to 8.2
wait a second hold on no we've got a problem with the formula oh no i put
them copied i copied the formula wait a second wait a second
okay okay there was a formula error
so we're actually ahead
but only by what like two percent 7.7 to
7.6 going into the last benchmark
i stand by what i said we did better than i thought we would how we've done considering
and there are there are lots of benefits to the way we did our system as to why
we did them you guys know to start from the benchmark executable yeah you have
to go into the oh they already got it okay um because this is the only one left
right yeah oh it's in that stupid folder right now scene one okay here we go hit
it you might as well hit it earlier dimitri it's going to start way later
oh no yeah they're faster i was reading it wrong whoa they're fluctuating a lot
yeah i know that what's up with your system bro
why is it running so bad right now i want to plug into the ups hold on
man winning would be weird i did not expect that
there's one setting that we forgot to check off with ashes might have made a
difference this was disabled no it doesn't matter
for directx 11. oh
yeah so it doesn't matter all right
let's see it yeah
look at there somehow stable it is
that's the same as last time
8.98 to 9.22
whoa what
bringing in
we were so worried from day two forward a hundred percent
okay
good job guys good team well played sorry to meet you
all right
with a score of 9.2
to 9 effectively rounding here you are
congratulations you walked a long way to end where you started
but with a winning computer that looks just like me and dimitri
second good effort at least your pedometer is happy
okay so again congratulations
congratulations well played
oh sorry well i already shook your hand one side you shook
all right so that's it
dimitri i let you down i'm sorry bro
you have not let me down it was great i think we had a good system yeah
well at least you got to be on the show Linux yeah and congratulations you guys once more
thanks for coming out and uh
thanks for watching basically they got wrecked thanks for watching scrapyard
awards he can retire now he's lost you know a lot and he's playing
for sponsoring crafty whoa
that's right that's true where's my phone
brand grip go buy one that might have been a little hard
this is a regular phone this is a grip phone this is
for comedic effect
