how's my hair it's beautiful oh more beautiful than i've ever seen
thank you it's rog rig reboot again and the
winners are here at least one of the winners is here this is shawn and i
would like everyone to take a moment both to feel good for him because he is
getting a brand new gaming rig courtesy of rog and he has excellent posture look
at his posture his mom actually asked him before he showed up he would make
sure that he keeps his posture nice because he she'd hate for other people
to see his posture and think that think what i don't know i don't have good
posture that would be terrible wouldn't it let's build a rig shall we yes
there we go you know those like oh yeah yeah
i hate it when people do this because there's no standard way to do it
for both gaming and content creation the ASUS z390a motherboard is built to last
using premium japanese capacitors learn more at the link below
so here's a screwdriver it's like you're not ready yet so sean where are you from
maple ridge that's where i'm from did you go to garibaldi no that's probably
just as well i went to garibaldi and we all kind of see how that worked out have
you ever built a computer before no never have you at least watched
a build video before i know yeah i watched the rog ones and then the super
RGB one which is probably why ASUS liked
you so much as a candidate because those guys are all about RGB all the things
you've got an RGB keyboard you've got an RGB graphics card RGB motherboard with
rsync got an RGB cooler you have an RGB mouse an RGB headset and uh in case it's
probably rgb2 so then since you're a seasoned watcher
of build videos i'm sure you know where to start oh right
i'm just kidding go ahead oh okay if you want to break it it's totally up to you
i don't want to break it yeah because you know if you break it
like the whole thing's over like you get back in your car you go back home and
it's over right like it's a test
okay so let's go go ahead and get the processor out of the box now this is the
heart and soul of your system there's a seal on it six cores turboing up to 4.9
gigahertz i still remember when i built my first system
i'm just kidding i don't remember that it was a long time ago you are way out
ahead of me so sean already pointed at that little dot and why is that dot
important so you can line it up properly with this arrow
that's right are you sure that you don't line it up with the dot though
i'm not sure well that's it he's done he's packing it back up he's gonna get
out of here with holy crap you are
getting two terabytes of solid-state storage normally they do like a hard
drive for your games and stuff but you've got an almost terabyte NVMe drive
and you get a terabyte ASUS pulled out all the stops for you
they must really like you hear that sniffle that's his case of
the crappy systems i'll stop sniffling by the time this build ends
all right now i know maple ridge kids fall onto one of two camps the ones that
play with knives and the ones that play with fire so which one are you i don't
know what's the right response only in the wrong hands yeah is that because your dad's sitting there and you won't
admit it no so which sticks go in which slots
uh this you're filling them all with a matched set it doesn't matter oh yeah
okay and then you want to push it down
evenly until it clicks in on both sides so that's how you know you got to give it a little
right there oh
there you go one more okay
this is a tougher one that'll be the
npme SSD oh very nice this is a brand new ifixit kit wow they
have to do just one side or both i don't know what i usually do is i
start with one and then i see what happens i need a place to put this
having flashbacks to being a teenager this was my job whenever my dad did
something hold the screws in the nails
symptoms of crappy systemitis include shaking hands not being able to open
boxes yeah and the sniffles oh i forgot about that
this way sure why not i don't know how to put it in well it's okay you're
pretty young you'll learn later
you want to give it a little okay push snug into the socket i'll let
you do it though okay um
cooler for the CPU you know sure yeah let's do let's let's do that that side
of the cooler in that crazy
when you walked in here you had like an old
laptop with onboard graphics i have an Intel t6400 four gigs of RAM ddr2 and
that's still what you have because you haven't actually completed the challenge
yet tf2 is running at like 15 to like 30
frames per second and all those settings look at the size of these nuts they're
bigger so it's gonna be easier to like yeah yeah i mean they're easier to
handle which i guess is nice so this is the one that has an OLED
screen built into the CPU block and i'm gonna do the peel because i can't trust
you to do it properly
that was worth it shiny this is your mom's spaghetti dude arms are heavy
these builds are too much fun i love this i thought he was like putting on
sort of a character like making it a bit more extra for the camera but he's like
always active and that much like excited about everything so what do you
think goes on next thermal paste actually yes but no
ASUS pre-applied your thermal paste thank you ASUS
wow so the screen in the middle here you can actually put anything you want on it
you could put like an rog logo if you were all about that you know thanks rog
for this totally free computer or i mean you could just put like a dickbot on it
like whatever i guess while we're like working with cables and stuff we could like
no you really want to put that SSD in don't you i guess we're going to do this then
are you sure oh we're going to put it in the case yes
yeah this is the part where it gets really fun tempered glass
looks nice be careful when it gets mad just boom shatters
oh that's not good all right so this
is gonna fall off very soon so you should probably yep that's good
there you go two hands please very nice okay so tuck that away
somewhere safe we don't want to scratch that because that is your viewport into your gorgeous
system that is a perfect place for it he's putting it in a bin he's not just chucking it on the floor
is this heavy i don't want to crush my fingers
then i won't be able to use my mouse
10 points if you can figure out how to open this before i do
i won't i lied anyhow yeah
this is something that's always kind of triggered me about these you went to all
the effort to print on the bag and yeah i couldn't just say what it's
for
goes in here sure does either way
other way oh like that no
nice wait would it go in
i just had it lined up you have to like really
force it in yeah pretty much use the force
like yeah no no the real force yeah no that's that's movies
do you want a LTT logo in your class
yes oh what we can do that we have a
laser yeah i was gonna ask for a sticker but i guess that's cooler
and he's still putting the iowa ship i'm having a lot of trouble
so hold it by the cooler and use your other hand to guide it in
and you're going to try to guide the rear i o through the back
before you make contact with all of the metal standoffs that are on the
motherboard tray you ready i hope correct answer is yes i was born ready
and you gotta have like kind of a gruff tone to your voice oh it's boring born
ready that's too deep yeah it's done and the
screws you're gonna use are the 632 flat
flat is the heads of the people who labeled
these flat because these are clearly a
pan head and they clearly use a phillips type
driver so there's nothing really flat about them
so what do you think is next um power
supply all right so we're gonna put your modular cables onto the power supply
first 246.
that's not good as a drop expert i can tell you that drop was
fairly benign yes
yes sweet do we need all of them am i just doing
this for no reason no you're actually almost done you only need one more cable
you know what's really good about a video like this
is that you are giving other people the confidence to ask stupid questions
and make mistakes but that means i'm doing worse than them
right you're like welcome the sacrificial lamb i wanna die
i just got this cool computer
does this plug into the motherboard or is it gonna go into the basically the
rule from here on out with these is if it fits it says would have to spend like
eight years yeah don't worry your street cred was it was too low kind of down here already
anyway so it's fine there's an alignment thing right there
maybe these this goes into the motherboard
it kind of doesn't work without any of the pieces
well you don't really need fans well maybe your old system didn't but
with a 2080 ti and 8700k you're gonna
need fans and the reason this part is tricky is
because you kind of have to align a
that's a technique that i've perfected over the years did you notice i kicked it a little bit before it hit the ground
you can arrest some of its momentum before it actually falls and there we
are all of our cooling is completely wired up now
what do you want to install uh power supply all right so let's do it
okay no
you can tell he's almost cured he hasn't sniffled in forever oh that doesn't have to come all the way
out that is called a self-retaining screw
so you see how it has like a kind of a knob on the end and then a shaft in the
middle yeah um you don't really need a screwdriver
for this oh it was too tight for me oh not strong
no that's not in it's not in yet you rock it a little bit
almost on the bottom a little further there you
go so these guys separate out your cables nicely so they look all clean and
professional uh okay
yes go ahead
enjoy it breathe it in i don't know why i was so excited to
open this there we go
that hurts whoa
trick shots that's something kids just say now like trick shots whoa trick shots like
no no one says that except me
no one literally no one
the moment you've been waiting for the fastest graphics card
i was having it just you there now over there look if you're not going to do it
right if you're not going to take this seriously like we can just leave the graphics card
you know what there that's it that's the computer forget it it has integrated graphics just like your current one yeah
there it is the rtx 2080 ti definitely
wasn't expecting that i thought i'd get like a 1080 ti
but the 2080 ti is really cool
now with like however many bazillion heat pipes three fans rsync
compatibility a dual bio switch so you can switch between quiet and performance
mode and it's super duper duper duper fast
open it let's do it let's put it in
heavy right yeah really heavy i think i got it
no i don't
see i knew he was a knife kid
there we go
and that was it your rtx 2080 ti is installed
well after you put the screws in and put the power connecting yeah
so now we just need to find the
prettiest spot to bring these guys around which honestly we don't have a
ton of great options here so now that i've given up we're just
gonna do whatever then before anyone gets a chance to look
too closely at it i'm going to close up the back panel
and it is
beautifully cable managed as far as you know need a hand
is that an eight pin CPU connector why is that got two of those in there
you go in there i'm gonna close this up for the last time
almost done laser engraved
that looks really cool oh nice yeah our logo looks really good when engraved
yeah that is sick if you want something else we can probably put something down
here if you want like a giant dick butt that takes up the whole rest of the that
is awesome alex yeah so uh the monitor
we're hooking this up to is basically one of the finest gaming
displays on the market now this guy is 2560 by 1440 resolution up to 165 hertz
pretty much what that means is that your monitor can keep up with your system a
lot more than 60. i knew you were here for a reason and it was that
contribution that one line this entire experience was leading up to that moment
all right go ahead and press the button
whoa okay dang we got it wrong that's fine i'm pretty sure we can flip
it this is going to look sea yak as the
kids say what total memory 32 megs that's why i was
thinking back to my first computer um
press f1 to run setup that's good i mean sounds good you don't have a choice so
we've got pretty much everything wow this has touch controls
that's pretty cool there's a mic ah retractable mic
that's what that was yeah that's the worm is the worm still cool it's enough
it's in fortnite here you go oh
i don't play fortnite really no one plays it in my school anymore you kids
today you like hear it one day and boom go on the neck
you know what forget it let's just finish this thing up so let's go ahead
and put our tempered glass side panel back on complete with laser etched LTT logo okay
go you do the peel you do the feel come on we got places to be i can't go faster
oh we still got stuff on the
motherboard and stuff that needs to be peeled
don't don't blow it
oh oh okay well yeah you know what
ruined probably the least exciting part was screwing everything in here we go
you want to screw me in here oh yeah that took a really long time oh
but the rest was really interesting really fun you see a skill player
not really all right the sound dampening in this is like
really really good i put it on and like i could barely hear you talking you're
just gonna put those there you're not gonna have sound oh well i'm not gonna play like a full game oh all right no i
don't know man so have you ever oh
wow you just got tracked man
oh is this like team deathmatch yeah why'd you pull out your knife there
i was i didn't see him so it's going to run faster you know what i um
okay there's okay well that's that's pretty oh you haven't sponge oh
he was just look i wouldn't have given you this computer if i'd known you were gonna do that
that is what you get that's the same guy you 100 deserved it anything 250 FPS
what is what is that an increase above like 20x yeah more over your old machine
all right well now why don't we go for something that's a little bit more demanding so i'm going to show you how
you dial in the optimized settings for a machine like this you go to graphics
and you go to highest that's basically it
also you should turn motion blur off because it's for chumps yeah
i think they're crashing looks like it they seem to be distressed about it so
it's probably not like a planned crash no that's definitely not
oh that's whoa whoops uh i don't think the seat
belt is going to help you hun two days
what oh boy she's
okay she's gonna pry the rock off the leg and that leg that looks
very painful all right you're sort of playing you get to crawl on the rock so there you go w
oh oh yeah well this game's really hard
ah yes this is going to be fun so results
for 3d mark times by extreme better than 83
of all results way above like even the guys running you
know 4k gaming pcs or whatever else the case may be you're like way out here so
basically of all the giant nerds that like benchmark their systems for fun
you're in the top twenty percent so that's pretty much it thank you rog and
Linus media group for having me out here are you feeling better sean yeah yeah no
more coughing no more stuff excellent excellent he's cured he's karen
so guys thanks for watching thanks to ASUS rog for sponsoring this video
bringing shawn out here and of course providing all of this hardware if you
guys dislike this video you can hit that button but you'll make him sad you don't
want to make him sad how's he ever going to feel better oh right gaming on his machine nevermind he'll be fine if you
