1
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:23,920
he doesn't suspect a thing

2
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:28,160
so uh brandon's been trying to

3
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:32,079
buy some computer hardware he's wanted a rig because he's using like some ancient

4
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:36,640
laptop so he's been trying to buy computer hardware for black friday

5
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:40,800
and uh luke and i keep refusing to help him with anything

6
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:44,160
we're just like no no um don't don't buy that don't buy that uh

7
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:49,120
yeah no it's not a good deal it's not a good deal so uh secretly down here

8
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,800
we're working on putting together a rig for him so let's go through what we got

9
00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:59,640
we went through the tickle trunk so to speak so we got an i7 47 70k

10
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:03,520
we got a Gigabyte z87x ud5h this is a pretty freaking high-end

11
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:10,400
board okay we dug up a two terabyte wd green

12
00:01:06,799 --> 00:01:13,119
storage drive where'd those ssds go okay

13
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:17,520
we got a couple uh we got 16 gigs of course there vengeance memory and then

14
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:23,759
we grabbed a couple of our test drives so we're gonna do two 128 gig drives in

15
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:28,720
raid zero two ssds and raid zero for the boot drive

16
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,240
um he's been eyeing the Corsair air 540

17
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:35,280
since we got our hands on that but he recently changed his desk so he can't use it

18
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:40,040
anymore so instead we're going to use the one we used for our ultimate video

19
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:43,119
editing build guide so that's the

20
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:45,200
tj04ew from silverstone

21
00:01:43,119 --> 00:01:50,000
and then uh power supply i don't think we're quite decided yet we're either

22
00:01:47,439 --> 00:01:53,600
going to chuck this ocz zt in there it's actually not a bad power supply it's

23
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:59,200
modular in 80 plus bronze or we're going to go like all out silent

24
00:01:56,479 --> 00:02:02,320
and put the rosewill 500 watt 80 plus platinum power supply in it we're going

25
00:02:00,719 --> 00:02:05,840
to probably pull apart the case because i don't remember what ventilation around

26
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:09,440
the power supply area is like and find out if that makes sense because

27
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:13,840
i'd like to make the system quite quiet if we can so for our cooler we've got a

28
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:18,400
dark rock too from be quiet! and then uh what are we doing for

29
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,920
graphics card okay well we'll pick a graphics card

30
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,800
soon stay tuned guys so he's taking over the motherboard now so he can actually

31
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:28,080
start setting up it's actually pretty beast motherboard

32
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:31,840
see this they wanted to go with a gold idea like ASUS did their gold

33
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:37,040
motherboards this is how you do a gold idea

34
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:39,360
you don't make the whole damn thing

35
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:43,120
you just do it like a little bit and it's okay it looks fine

36
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,920
it looks good my camera skills don't look good but it looks good all right

37
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:50,319
well we might as well do a CPU installation guide you want to be the narrator

38
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:54,080
sure so he he spins it so that the notches are properly lined up and

39
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:59,519
elegantly pulls up the ARM and then very delicately places it in

40
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,519
the slot oh my god

41
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:08,319
oh wow dun dun

42
00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:08,319
impressive thank you finish it

43
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,720
if you could do that accurately that would be kind of amazing that would be

44
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:22,560
awesome so now we're revisiting the cooler the

45
00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:27,360
cut Linus this this is the very cooler that in a

46
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,640
different build guide cut his finger open

47
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,879
so this is round two what

48
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:37,360
he applies to thermal compound precision

49
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:41,920
scarcity skill determination yes oh actually that's not

50
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:46,959
that great no no i probably should have gone for a longer thinner line

51
00:03:44,239 --> 00:03:46,959
audio solution

52
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,599
oh i don't know you could do like a macro of like the header

53
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:59,040
because you won't be able to see it because it plugs into the case that's the guy we're building a computer so the

54
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:03,120
way this heatsink actually screws in is instead of screwing it in from the front

55
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:06,720
you screw it in from the back so you just have uh brackets that are

56
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:12,959
pre-installed on the front and then you just tighten these screws at the back and preferably a cross pattern going

57
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:16,639
little by little until it is completely attached to the board so once that's

58
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,120
done you should have a pretty good look i mean it's important for a capture pc

59
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:28,400
to uh be extremely quiet because you don't want i mean obviously it's going

60
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:32,560
to be used in an environment where video production is going on so you don't want

61
00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:37,040
uh you don't want to be loud and obnoxious right

62
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:42,320
all our graphics cards are upstairs so uh when he was up here editing

63
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,639
we couldn't really dig through them so here we go what do you got

64
00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:51,040
oh yeah going with the 680

65
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:54,639
so brandon uses cuda and the mercury playback engine for some

66
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:59,600
of the stuff he does so we figure that's a pretty good choice

67
00:04:57,199 --> 00:05:04,800
so luke's working on front panel headers yeah good work like we we assign all the

68
00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:06,639
right jobs because the guy with the like

69
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:11,199
gigantor hands is plugging in front panel connectors

70
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:16,000
and i'm like plugging in this fan so here's how to install a graphics card

71
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:18,960
you put the thing in the slot see

72
00:05:17,039 --> 00:05:22,320
right in there and then you put the screws in the other thing

73
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,919
so here's our 680 it's starting to come together hey

74
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:31,039
yep that's a nice looking rig that guy is still here editing our

75
00:05:27,919 --> 00:05:33,520
rampage for extreme black edition

76
00:05:31,039 --> 00:05:36,080
thing so we've had to just kind of do this

77
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:42,479
but there we go oh actually do you want to grab the back side panel just so that it's uh

78
00:05:39,199 --> 00:05:45,120
the sexiness comes through properly

79
00:05:42,479 --> 00:05:50,000
so there you have it guys not a bad little rig for someone who

80
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:54,080
wants to do some video editing and get into gaming a little bit coffee oh

81
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:58,880
yeah oh yeah and of course you know captured

82
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,360
video capture right just like that yeah

83
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:04,560
so uh cable management on the back is reasonably clean but not clean enough

84
00:06:03,039 --> 00:06:08,639
that we necessarily want to show it to you there's only one more thing we need

85
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:13,840
to do here is just uh tuck these away and then we are pretty much

86
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:15,440
ready to rock i'm i'm liking how few

87
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:19,919
cables we had to use to put this rig together we only had to use one modular

88
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:23,280
cable that was it and it has four set of harnesses on it we were able to plug in

89
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:27,520
all of our drives and we were ready to go so the only thing left now is the

90
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:31,600
surprise okay so it's not the best wrapping job ever but uh

91
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,880
my wife's helping me kind of put like a

92
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:40,400
like wrapping sort of looking thing on it

93
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:44,240
so that it will look somewhat nice and then we're gonna surprise him

94
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:48,960
tomorrow morning so all right so brandon went out for lunch so

95
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:53,440
we're bringing out the system we got the muscle handling that uh that

96
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:56,800
aspect of things bring it upstairs all right so what i'm

97
00:06:55,199 --> 00:07:00,080
gonna do is i'm gonna like barricade this door or something

98
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:03,759
so that we uh so that we hear him coming or like i'll

99
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:08,080
i'll pile boxes at the top of the stairs because that'll he'll be like why are

100
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:10,240
all the boxes like piled up the stairs i can't get up

101
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:14,680
okay just like yell surprise or something

102
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:24,670
oh okay glass

103
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:28,160
record a video

104
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:42,319
oh brandon we're good we're not filming i mean we are filming but

105
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:48,479
surprises what

106
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:52,080
oh it's your christmas bonus what

107
00:07:52,639 --> 00:07:57,680
seriously we were trolling you so hardcore when we

108
00:07:56,319 --> 00:08:02,000
were building a system with all your favorite stuff and telling you it wasn't for you

109
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:04,160
what when did you even have time for this

110
00:08:04,479 --> 00:08:11,039
we built this on friday what

111
00:08:08,319 --> 00:08:14,240
after i asked like a million times that's why we kept on trying to convince

112
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:20,800
you not to buy yeah we were like good deals please please don't buy things

113
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,800
you didn't buy anything did you no

114
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:26,400
it got hard to drive it was like a really good price

115
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:30,720
well thank you for your hard work thank you and uh yeah it's pretty much the

116

123
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:04,560
