1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,240
Hey, there it goes. There it goes. All right, guys. We're live. Welcome to the

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:08,320
Lionus Tech Tips live stream featuring

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:13,920
the one and only Slick PC. In spite of that one guy who keeps asking me to fire

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:17,840
him. I haven't done it yet today. Today.

5
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:19,680
Are those mine? No. Oh, where'd mine go?

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:23,920
Oh, there they are. We both have the same earbuds, which causes no small

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:27,359
amount of confusion or would cause no small amount of confusion if we ever put

8
00:00:25,439 --> 00:00:30,480
them in a pile next to each other, which would be a bit of a problem. So, we're

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:35,840
both using Flux in Ear Pros. What do you think of them? I like them. Did you ever

10
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:38,480
try the nonpros? Yeah, I didn't mind

11
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:41,920
those. They were good, but I like how well these will hook around your ear,

12
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:46,079
right? And how well they sit in your ear? The only complaint I have about the

13
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:48,399
non-pros is like these ones, um, they talked about when we were in their suite

14
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,160
that they're designed after hearing aids, right? Yeah. So, they fit in your

15
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:55,199
ear really well and they don't really come out of your ear that much, right?

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:01:01,359
And then the cable can go right up and around your ear so there's not a lot of tension. With the nonpros, um, they're

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:05,439
designed to to kind of stick out of your ear and then go down. So, they stick

18
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:10,080
fairly far out and then go straight down. You know what I discovered though

19
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:13,680
is that with the nonpros, if you really jam them in there. Yeah. I Well, hold

20
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:19,200
on. No, no, really though. That's That's why they're so long. You're supposed to

21
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:21,600
I I found if I put a size smaller ear

22
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:25,680
tip on it and then I put them right in, not only did they sound great, the noise

23
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:29,200
isolation was outstanding and they didn't stick out really far anymore. I

24
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:33,439
was I even able to lie down on them without them being uncomfortable. So

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:37,759
there there's sort of That's pretty cool. I didn't go that far with it. I

26
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:42,240
don't like Right. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Fair enough. Cuz they're more like in-

27
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,600
ear canal almost. Yeah. Which is kind of

28
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:50,479
weird. Well, it's not for everyone, that's for sure. And wouldn't that be worse, too, for your ears? I mean, if

29
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:54,399
you cranked it, maybe. Sure. Yeah, I would think so. Yeah. All right. So,

30
00:01:53,040 --> 00:02:00,399
what's our first topic for the week? Sorry if my voice sucks, guys. I'm kind of sick.

31
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:05,439
Yeah, I know that's a common topic. Yeah, we sort of talk about that a lot,

32
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:07,759
but yeah. Let's move on to a uh a new

33
00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:16,160
topic. So, our first topic of the week is um Tomb Raider 2013 edition is

34
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:17,840
already 50% off on Steam.

35
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,360
It's not even the summer sale yet. Like I kind of expected stuff like this in

36
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,400
the summer sale because the summer Steam summer sale is always like just the most

37
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:28,239
ridiculous thing ever. It's like please stay inside and play video games,

38
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,680
please. I don't even for a few months I've already I've started doing this

39
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:35,120
like a few months back and for until the summer sale comes around. What I do is

40
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:39,040
I'll actually for any games that I hear of that I want and any games that go on

41
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:43,200
sale that I'm like, "Oh, that looks interesting." I put it in a list in a

42
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:46,720
notepad on my computer and I just wait. Even if it goes on like a crazy weekend

43
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:51,599
only sale, I'm like, "No, I'll just put that in a list. Wait for the summer

44
00:02:48,599 --> 00:02:54,959
sale cuz it's so cheap." It's basically

45
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:56,879
like like boxing boxing week or I guess

46
00:02:54,959 --> 00:03:00,879
uh for the American viewers kind of like like a Black Friday type thing. It's

47
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,560
kind of it's kind of awesome. It's just not worthwhile to buy anything any other

48
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:10,239
time. Yeah. But I mean this comes back to our discussion about Crisis 3. So

49
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:15,760
that came out and then it was discounted within a couple weeks in spite of being

50
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:20,319
evidently a hot selling title. Should you pre-order anything

51
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:24,640
ever? See, like at this point, the main reason

52
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:27,440
why I would ever see to pre-order anything is if you can find a place

53
00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:32,080
where you're going to get some amount of benefit from it. Because like sometimes

54
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,280
Steam will do the oh, if enough people pre-order and you always hit the third

55
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:39,280
tier, and there's three tiers of pre-order benefits. And sometimes like

56
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:44,000
it comes with other games, right? And it'll come with like other games, DLC,

57
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:49,200
like all this stuff. So sometimes the pre-order benefits are really big and

58
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:54,319
exclusive. So sometimes it's worth it. I have Bill's hat in left in uh Team

59
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,920
Fortress 2. See, like see like that. But

60
00:03:54,319 --> 00:04:00,560
that's I think where the benefit of buying early is going to be now because

61
00:03:57,519 --> 00:04:02,400
it's not price. It's not price anymore.

62
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:07,400
Yeah. It's like two, three weeks, four weeks after the uh after it actually

63
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:13,280
comes out. It's already like Yeah.

64
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,480
So, someone says, uh, yeah, people are

65
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:20,560
still complaining about the audio levels. I actually don't

66
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:25,120
understand. Um, okay, here we can try moving it a little

67
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:28,400
closer. That might actually help. So,

68
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:30,960
the mic. Yeah,

69
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:37,840
we will try. Whether just said audio is great. Well, I adjusted it a little bit.

70
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:44,199
Okay. It's easier to turn down than it is for people who are maxed out to turn

71
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:46,560
it up. So, I I understand um

72
00:04:44,199 --> 00:04:50,639
yeah, I understand why that's a problem. Why don't we turn to a little bit of

73
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:55,360
Twitter Q&A? So, let's go ahead and do this. Oh. Oh, yeah. Another topic

74
00:04:52,960 --> 00:05:00,880
actually before we uh before we go any further, is our afterparty this week,

75
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,840
assuming Slick and I can get it working, we'll probably get it working, right? I

76
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,840
would think so. Is going to be our Super Mario World live stream.

77
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:12,479
At least like the start of it. At least the start of it. We'll probably have to do more than one segment. Yeah. It's not

78
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:17,199
going to be in one sitting. I mean, the reality of it is I told my wife about

79
00:05:15,039 --> 00:05:21,680
the concept of the Super Mario World live stream and she was kind of like I

80
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,199
mean, you can't expect wives to necessarily always get the whole like

81
00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:31,919
game stream. Quite frankly, I don't really get the whole game streaming thing, but I mean, it's more for us.

82
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:35,360
We're not doing like a let's play. This is more of just we're doing a normal

83
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,880
we're probably going to be talking about random stuff just like we do in the afterparty. Yeah. But just instead of

84
00:05:39,199 --> 00:05:45,120
the whole screen being us, it'll probably be a small webcam view and then

85
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:48,880
Super Mario World. And like who doesn't like Super Mario World? Can I have a

86
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:54,080
webcam view of you? What are you wearing? What? That's true.

87
00:05:51,680 --> 00:06:00,479
I can see what you're wearing. Your exposed knees are very sensual today.

88
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:04,960
Exposed knees. Well, slip shorts to work, which I mean, I'm not the best

89
00:06:02,479 --> 00:06:08,400
dressed gentleman. You wear sandals. That's true. But sandals are very

90
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:12,560
practical. And you only wear nice shirts when you need to. Yes, that is true. If

91
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:18,639
you're not going to be in front of camera, you wear like badminton shirts and stuff. Yes, that's true. You

92
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:23,440
probably just don't like How many shorts do you own? Uh, a couple. They're all

93
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,960
the same. And you probably don't like them, do you? I have three pairs of jean

94
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:31,360
shorts that I actually don't like cuz they make my butt look big there. So

95
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:35,520
that's why you don't wear shorts. I love shorts. Shorts are amazing. Okay, that

96
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:40,400
actually could be part of the reason. All right, so moving along to Twitter

97
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:45,360
Q&A. Ah, watching from Norway, but not at a land party. Second time tuning in

98
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:49,919
from Austria. I think this new time slot really does work well for a lot of uh a

99
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:53,120
lot of people. Really, really well. George says, "Apparently there's a

100
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:57,919
giveaway of leftover Steam codes on the forum." Cool. That actually happens like

101
00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:01,440
a lot. Yeah, it's neat. If you're if you don't have many Steam games, like

102
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:07,039
honestly, hang around the forum. There's there's one guy that does Steam giveaways all the time for just drawing

103
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:10,880
him random things. That's kind of cool. And he'll pick like not the best drawing

104
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,840
at all. He'll pick like the thing that he just kind of likes the most. And

105
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:18,479
usually it has nothing to do with the best drawing at all. It's just what makes him laugh. So that's pretty cool.

106
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:22,720
I know one of our mods has done a giveaway. I know. Like there's a lot of

107
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:27,599
giveaways on the forum actually. Um, speaking of giveaways on the forum, the

108
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:31,919
user Dragon Tale submitted a Mass Effect 2 Steam code or I think Oh crap, I think

109
00:07:29,919 --> 00:07:35,280
it's an Origin code. Yeah, I think it's an origin code. But one way or another,

110
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:39,680
it's a free copy of Mass Effect 2 that he sort of told me I could give away on

111
00:07:36,639 --> 00:07:43,919
the live stream. So instead, I opted to

112
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:45,280
give it away on the forum in the D. I'm

113
00:07:43,919 --> 00:07:50,160
gonna see if I can remember what my hotkey is for this one. This Whoops.

114
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:56,560
Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Oh. Uh oh. We'll be back in a

115
00:07:53,199 --> 00:07:56,560
moment. What are you

116
00:08:00,919 --> 00:08:08,400
doing? What's going on? There we

117
00:08:05,479 --> 00:08:12,960
go. All right. So, in this thread here called the post Linus memes here thread,

118
00:08:11,039 --> 00:08:17,199
which actually has some pretty funny stuff. Okay. This one's not that great,

119
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:23,199
but basically the winner selected by me and Slick is going to win a copy of Mass

120
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:26,199
Effect 2. And I think it's just sort of for fun. Twitter's up and running and

121
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:31,280
it's gone. Love it. I have to keep going

122
00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:34,320
until I find my favorite one, which I don't actually burst out laughing at

123
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:39,839
that much stuff I see on the internet, but this thread has got me going a couple times. Yeah, this thread's

124
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:42,880
actually just kind of awesome. But where is it? Here we go. Here we go. Oh, no.

125
00:08:41,680 --> 00:08:48,959
Yeah, that one's not bad. That one's not bad. But there's another slick one that I think is my personal favorite so far.

126
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:53,200
I don't remember where it is. I don't remember where it is, too. I think it's pretty early on. I like this. Have you

127
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,720
seen this? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I saw this one. Oh my goodness. That was so funny.

128
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:01,920
Okay, you know what? Hold on. We're going to cut back to back to us for a second. V Bulletin has taken care of us

129
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:06,800
at this point. They've issued a full refund. So, we are now square with them.

130
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:10,959
It's all good. Yeah. Still funny, though. This one's just terrifying. This

131
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:15,480
is weird. I mean, there's like a black Linus

132
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:19,839
I' I've never seen that before. Uh, okay. I think it's got to be

133
00:09:17,839 --> 00:09:23,640
page three because it was pretty early on.

134
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:29,040
Um, okay. Hold on. Close cell phone.

135
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:36,640
Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Trust me. Trust me. It's worth it. Oh, I thought

136
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:39,160
it was on page two pages now.

137
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:44,920
Okay. Close cell phone. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Final assembly.

138
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:50,560
Okay. Okay. Yeah. No. No. Did someone get rid of it? Maybe.

139
00:09:48,959 --> 00:09:55,519
That's bizarre. Okay. Well, there's a Slick one that we both saw that we both

140
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:59,839
really liked that I thought was quoted in here a few times. A lot of people

141
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:06,399
talked about it, but it was basically Slick giving a big thumbs up with the

142
00:10:01,839 --> 00:10:06,399
caption EA at the

143
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:13,920
bottom. And I have no idea what happened here. I haven't seen some of these. So,

144
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:17,519
so anyway, must be gone. Guys, feel free to post on the thread. You can win a

145
00:10:15,519 --> 00:10:21,680
free copy of Mass Effect 2, courtesy of Dragon Tale, one of the members of our

146
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:30,399
forum. All right, so back to Twitter, right? That's where we left off. I was

147
00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:34,800
like, so are you ready for Haswell? Uh, we have

148
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:39,920
Haswell chips. We have Haswell boards coming soon. We had a conversation with

149
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:41,760
ASUS that involves um a lot of uh a lot

150
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:45,440
of really cool stuff heading our way. So, we're going to be hopefully doing

151
00:10:43,279 --> 00:10:51,279
like some build guides and some benchmarks and talking about Haswell. A

152
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:55,920
whole a whole heck of a lot. Um Andy wants to know when we're expecting the

153
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,519
NVIDIA 700 series. We have no idea. And

154
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:02,399
if we did, we wouldn't be able to tell you. So, if we did, I would tell you we

155
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:06,000
have no idea. So, there you go. That should tell you all you need to know.

156
00:11:04,079 --> 00:11:13,120
Uh, Slick, have you tried Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon yet? No. Why not? So, well,

157
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,440
I don't have a code yet. Oh,

158
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:18,519
well, you have a Never Settle. Yeah, but they haven't sent out I don't think

159
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:22,880
Never Settle has sent out their codes yet. So, I'm waiting for Never Settle to

160
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:27,680
send out their codes and then I will play the crap out of Blood Dragon. I'm

161
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:31,440
so excited. You saw that gift I showed you, right? Yes. It's a It's a gift

162
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:36,399
where two guys are fighting on the road and then some gigantic techno lizard

163
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:44,120
just dives by and takes the guy out. I'm just like, "Oh, I'm so excited for this

164
00:11:38,279 --> 00:11:48,079
game. It's so 80s." Oh my goodness. So

165
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:49,839
excited. Uh, so what's up with Haswell?

166
00:11:48,079 --> 00:11:53,040
What would you expect from online gaming platforms in the future? We've talked

167
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:57,680
about that a fair bit, I think, already on previous live streams. 15th top

168
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:02,959
poster on the forums today is apparently Dylan Grant. Nice. Awesome. Yes, Super

169
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:08,000
Mario finally is coming here. Do you want to scooch forward a little bit? Apparently you're a little out of focus.

170
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:13,839
Tuning in from Sweden at 1:00 a.m. Love it, guys. Thank you for tuning in. And

171
00:12:10,959 --> 00:12:20,240
apparently lots of new interactions. Oh, this is interesting. So, we got our

172
00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:22,560
hands on a 7990 today. Um, but the only

173
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:27,040
hands-on time we had with it was to basically just like video the card

174
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:30,600
itself. We didn't actually get a chance to benchmark it at all, which was sort

175
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:36,800
of disappointing. Um, so that made me that made me sad,

176
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:42,240
but hopefully we'll get a chance to really benchmark it. The problem with

177
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:44,079
benchmarking the 7990 is that due to the

178
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:47,920
fact that it's running Crossfire and AMD's drivers aren't really optimized

179
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:52,720
for um the best frame times, the frame rates

180
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:56,800
might be really high, but the actual perceived performance is not necessarily

181
00:12:54,959 --> 00:13:02,639
that high on a Crossfire solution right now. And unless you have a really

182
00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:04,560
high-end capture PC with um some special

183
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:09,200
software and a lot of time to sit down and and really go through frame by frame

184
00:13:06,959 --> 00:13:14,880
what was actually being displayed. It's really hard to get performance numbers

185
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:16,880
for Crossfire these days until AMD fixes

186
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:21,200
the issue. They have a prototype driver that looks a lot better, but it's

187
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:25,360
nowhere near available to the public yet. So, supposed to be like 20%

188
00:13:23,279 --> 00:13:29,680
increase, right? Um Oh, way better. Way better than that. like in terms of the

189
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:33,200
perceived performance and the perceived u stutteringness of it, it's supposed to

190
00:13:31,839 --> 00:13:39,200
be absolutely way better. Can you email that to me so that I can open it up over there? Yeah. All right. So, we found I'm

191
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:44,720
trying to get the user's name. We found the meme that was sort of mine and uh

192
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:48,800
mine and Slick's favorite so far that we dug through a thread only to find out it

193
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:52,639
like isn't there anymore for some reason. I have no idea why. So, we're

194
00:13:50,959 --> 00:13:55,920
going to bring that up soon. Uh we're going to have a guest next week. I don't

195
00:13:54,079 --> 00:13:59,680
know if I told you this yet. vaguely mentioned something, but I don't

196
00:13:57,839 --> 00:14:03,040
actually know what's going on. Okay, so our guest here, I'm just going to open

197
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:07,839
up our live stream agenda here, and I'll take you to his website. So, he's a bit

198
00:14:05,199 --> 00:14:13,680
of a local technology media personality. He goes by the name of Steve Doto. So,

199
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:18,240
there you go. He's got a website. He does more radio stuff. he's uh he's a

200
00:14:16,639 --> 00:14:23,279
little bit more focused on the business side of the technology and how to how to

201
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:27,360
enable yourself to sort of save time and make your life a little bit better with

202
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:31,360
it. He doesn't focus on graphics cards or stuff like that. So, I asked him to

203
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:35,839
come do a 20-minut segment or so. He does a lot of speaking engagements

204
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:38,720
locally. So, um so yeah, I had I had a meeting with him and he was he was

205
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:44,320
interested in coming in and joining us. So, I think it'll be interesting to just kind of do the whole guest thing again

206
00:14:42,639 --> 00:14:48,920
and see how it goes. uh very knowledgeable. He's been doing I

207
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:54,240
mean he's run um TV broadcast tech shows in the past.

208
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:58,160
He's done online tech shows. Like I said, he does radio now. Extremely

209
00:14:55,839 --> 00:15:05,760
experienced. He's been doing tech talks since I mean I basically knew where to

210
00:15:01,199 --> 00:15:06,959
find the turbo button on a 386 or 486 or

211
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:12,959
whichever one was the one that came with a turbo button on. I can't even remember anymore. So, uh so yeah, that should be

212
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,920
kind of fun. Um, I don't know how carefully you've gone through some of

213
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:22,160
the topics that I submitted for the live stream, but have you seen this yet?

214
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:24,240
Yeah, crazy. So, guys, absolutely nuts.

215
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:28,199
Check this out. I don't know what ad that is, but uh this is from uh this is

216
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:34,480
from nofilmchool.com. Netflix streaming loses

217
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:37,600
2,000 titles as Universal and MGM

218
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:40,720
licenses expire. So, there's a lot of

219
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:43,279
talk right now about what the heck does

220
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:47,839
this actually mean? And I'm gonna I'm going to throw this at Slick. And so,

221
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:50,959
what's your take on this? I'm kind of worried for

222
00:15:48,839 --> 00:15:59,120
Netflix. And it's actually pretty brutal. That's so many titles. How 1794

223
00:15:54,240 --> 00:16:00,959
1794 titles. And I guess the thing that

224
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:05,160
sort of got a lot of people scratching their heads right now is that at the

225
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:11,040
same time, Warner Brothers is launching their

226
00:16:07,839 --> 00:16:12,880
archival video service. Yeah. Which is

227
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:17,120
more focused on older and obscure titles, but there's some overlap with

228
00:16:15,199 --> 00:16:25,040
the stuff that the license just expired from Netflix for.

229
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:28,240
And it's like, okay, so you got your own

230
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:31,120
service now. Netflix is branching out

231
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:34,959
into content creation now. Like crazy. Like crazy. They're investing. People

232
00:16:32,639 --> 00:16:41,279
are apparently really liking it, too. So, I mean, at some point in the

233
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,720
future, is is ne does Netflix become

234
00:16:41,279 --> 00:16:47,440
pretty much the same as any other content delivery company, except they

235
00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:51,600
were the kick in the pants that forces the other guys to figure out this whole

236
00:16:49,199 --> 00:16:56,880
digital content distribution thing, right? The reason why everyone pirates

237
00:16:54,079 --> 00:17:00,959
everything. So maybe at some point I mean what I what I've loved about Nve

238
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:05,480
I've only used Netflix for I had it for a few weeks because I'm a cheapkate and

239
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:10,240
I don't really watch movies like I I just actually don't

240
00:17:08,079 --> 00:17:15,839
watch movies. I've watched one movie since my son was born and that was over

241
00:17:12,959 --> 00:17:20,160
a year ago. I went to see The Hobbit. That was it. It's like okay. Um, so I

242
00:17:19,039 --> 00:17:27,039
don't really watch movies, so I didn't have it for long. But what I liked about it is that you weren't locked into this

243
00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:31,039
service or that service or that service to the point where all of a sudden if

244
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:34,080
you're paying $7 a month for 10 different services, it costs just as

245
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:39,360
much as a cable subscription, which is what I'm trying to get rid of. Yeah. At

246
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:41,120
that point, um, so are we moving towards

247
00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:46,480
more fragmentation where each of the studios maintains their own content

248
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:48,080
library? Is someone like YouTube gonna

249
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:52,640
win to the point where they get all the original programming? Well, it could

250
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:55,440
explode and then come back in because they're they're doing the subscriber

251
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:59,120
thing on YouTube. Like everyone is trying to you know how YouTube rolled

252
00:17:57,120 --> 00:18:03,200
out their like you can set up your channels as a subscription base. Yes.

253
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:09,440
Um, everyone is kind of rolling out their own big content subscription

254
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:11,440
setup. And I'm wondering if everyone all

255
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:15,600
the users are going to go, "This is too much

256
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:17,120
crap." And like they're going to want to

257
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:21,679
go back to just one group that maybe charges more. So maybe it's going to get

258
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:24,559
out of Netflix's hands for a while and then someone, whether it's Netflix or

259
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:30,799
maybe someone else, might be able to pull it all back together because it's going to be frustrating managing like 10

260
00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:34,080
different subscriptions for all your stuff. Oh yeah, it's just ridiculous.

261
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:38,320
It's annoying. That was nice. Like United States based

262
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:41,760
Netflix, Canadian Netflix was never really that strong, but United

263
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:45,840
States-based Netflix where you just kind of had everything. Yeah. Almost all the

264
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:49,120
movies you could think of, tons of documentaries, all the shows, almost.

265
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,360
And quite frankly, that's the kind of thing I could see myself subscribing to,

266
00:18:50,799 --> 00:18:59,440
whereas Canadian Netflix really wasn't that special. Yeah, VPNs. Um, yeah, VPN,

267
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:03,039
true enough. But yeah, so there's a lot of uh there's

268
00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:08,720
a lot of stuff being pulled off. So things like uh so hold on, hold on. Here

269
00:19:05,679 --> 00:19:09,919
we go. So South Park is is off, but it's

270
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:15,360
not that big of a deal because you can watch South Park online legally anyway.

271
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:17,440
Um Audrey Rose, James Bond classics like

272
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:21,600
Dr. and golding cuz those are still pretty good to watch. Um, so Netflix's

273
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:25,919
take on this is you know what our library has always been in flux. We're

274
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:30,160
also adding I think they said they were adding several Yeah. 500 titles are

275
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:34,720
being added May 1st. So that was 2 days ago. So they're losing almost 1,800 but

276
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:37,640
a lot of them are very possibly super old that people possibly aren't watching

277
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:42,320
that much. So they're adding Bachelorette, adding Hunger Games,

278
00:19:39,919 --> 00:19:45,039
adding Mission Impossible 2. I mean, it's one of those things where if you're

279
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:48,840
subscribing to Netflix as a service, it's kind of like if I turn it on,

280
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:53,760
there'll be something to watch. Mission probably accomplished as

281
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:58,000
long as they can maintain. Well, especially the States one. Yeah. Where I

282
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:04,799
think this is going on. Yeah. Because they have so much stuff.

283
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:10,000
Which actually reminds me um there was huge news the other day that I actually

284
00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:12,960
didn't have in our live stream um in our live stream document, but I'm going to

285
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:20,240
open this up. I just moved it over there now. So, the first major YouTube channel

286
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:27,120
acquisition just went down. So, DreamWorks announced the acquisition of

287
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:29,640
Awesomeness TV for 33 million, which is

288
00:20:27,120 --> 00:20:35,960
absolutely incredible. So, Awesomeness TV

289
00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:38,799
was okay. Mark Turbique and hold on.

290
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:42,240
Yeah. So, he's basically been involved in some other uh So, okay. Yeah. Yeah.

291
00:20:40,799 --> 00:20:45,840
Here we go. The key to this success according to Turbique was Robin's

292
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:51,039
experience creating traditional television content aimed at young viewers such as Smallville and One Tree

293
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:54,120
Hill. So, they basically took this channel. They got one of YouTube's

294
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:59,120
grants. I think they got 3 and a half Yeah, 3.5 million from

295
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:03,360
the series A round last summer, which added to a 5 million original content

296
00:21:01,039 --> 00:21:08,159
grant from YouTube. So, they got a bunch of money to build this channel. They

297
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:12,480
built it up to 500,000 subscribers and around 80 million monthly views. So,

298
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:18,320
this was on Po Daily, just so that we're citing our source here.

299
00:21:15,159 --> 00:21:21,760
um they got it up to that level and all

300
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:24,480
of a sudden it's worth 33 million which

301
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:30,240
is incredible because this could be the beginning of you know guys like I mean

302
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:32,880
YouTube hasn't really said okay yeah

303
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:35,360
we're going to develop content we're going to hire all the people and do it I

304
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:41,840
don't think they're interested in that they want to be a platform but they've started investing in content creators uh

305
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:47,600
whether it's Freddy Wong or whether it's Awesomeness TV or whoever else to turn

306
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:50,159
their platform into something that major

307
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:55,039
studios like DreamWorks are going to walk in and buy and start being content

308
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:59,440
producers on YouTube's platform, which makes room for premium channels that

309
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:03,919
people will actually legitimately, I think, pay for.

310
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:08,240
Interesting. One thing like Freddy Wong and stuff, it almost sucks that it's

311
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:10,720
named exactly after him because for him,

312
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:14,000
he probably can't sell it, but or if he did sell it, he'd have to stay a part of

313
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:18,480
it. But that's what's going on here as well. Oh, he's staying a part of it.

314
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:20,960
He's staying on board. So, hold on. Let

315
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:27,200
me just uh let me just browse down. I I read this sort of in with great interest

316
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:29,120
uh last last night, which was Yeah, it

317
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:33,760
just it kind of blew my mind. So, he's going to stay on for I think it

318
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:37,840
was can't see how long, but yeah. So, so Robins is staying on and he's going to

319
00:22:35,679 --> 00:22:41,280
be continuing to to develop it under DreamWorks. Of course, if they're

320
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:45,360
acquiring it for 33 million, they probably have some more money earmarked

321
00:22:43,039 --> 00:22:52,520
to continue to invest in it and make it uh more awesome. But what I figure based

322
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:52,520
on this is that I must be a millionaire.

323
00:22:54,559 --> 00:23:00,799
I'm worth about four million views a month online as tech tips. So, I figure

324
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:06,320
it it works out perfectly such that uh you can just extrapolate. And so, no.

325
00:23:03,919 --> 00:23:09,280
Yeah. Okay. I guess our production values aren't really there. That's never

326
00:23:07,679 --> 00:23:14,320
really been our strength, has it? No, no, no. I guess it has. And like the

327
00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:18,400
sale of a tech channel on YouTube, I don't think is quite as much as like an

328
00:23:15,919 --> 00:23:21,880
original content creator. We create original cont.

329
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:28,240
Yeah, fair enough. But not exactly the same platform. Either way, the, you

330
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:33,520
know, between looking at sort of Netflix's uh constant eb and flow of

331
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:39,039
their content as well as, I mean, this whole thing where YouTube channels might

332
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:41,360
turn into TV channels. Yeah. I hope that

333
00:23:39,039 --> 00:23:45,200
happens as soon as possible, which is just crazy. Yeah. Which is just

334
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:48,880
absolutely crazy. I mean, YouTube's been they've been doing all this stuff. I

335
00:23:47,039 --> 00:23:54,720
mean, they've been they've been one step ahead. Yeah. We need to support live. We

336
00:23:52,240 --> 00:24:00,480
need to support this. We need to support that. We need to incentivize content

337
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:06,400
creators to stay on this platform. It's like they support things unlike EA.

338
00:24:04,039 --> 00:24:09,520
Wow. Okay. Yeah, I guess we're we're half an hour in. I guess I had to throw

339
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:16,240
a shot. It wasn't that it wasn't that early for for a shot at EA.

340
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:18,480
Um, speaking of speaking of EA, did you

341
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:22,640
did you put that meme in here? No, I can't edit the doc. Did you email it to

342
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:26,799
me? Uh, I think so at some point. Yep, there it is.

343
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:32,200
Okay, so here we go, guys. So, this was this was the meme that Slick and I were

344
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:35,039
looking for before. So, it's basically

345
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:38,240
just that's the entire punch line. That's all the punchline we

346
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:45,559
need. How every joke on their live stream ended from now on.

347
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:51,840
Yeah. And they never sponsored Lionus

348
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:55,600
Tech Tips ever. Speaking of which, EA, if you would like

349
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:59,279
to sponsorship, uh, if you would like to sponsor us, just getting content, go for

350
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,720
it. Okay. In Germany, apparently YouTube, uh, created some original

351
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:06,880
channels that are paid by YouTube to create high quality content. Um, well, I

352
00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:10,480
mean, okay, they had by YouTube. Yeah, they if they're paid by YouTube and they

353
00:25:08,799 --> 00:25:13,279
actually hire people who actually get a paycheck, then that's a little bit

354
00:25:12,159 --> 00:25:18,320
different from what we've seen over here. So, there you go. Seems I can't

355
00:25:16,559 --> 00:25:21,760
watch because my sister took the tablet. It's okay. The archive will go up right

356
00:25:20,159 --> 00:25:26,000
away this week. We'll be back to the usual way of doing it. Uh the problem

357
00:25:23,919 --> 00:25:29,840
was that we had to wait for Twitch's archive which we could then download and

358
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:34,880
chop together in Windows Live Movie Maker and then we had to wait for it to

359
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:38,159
upload and then we had to wait to put in all the timestamps. It was just a really

360
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:42,240
really cludgy way of doing it before. Hopefully it'll actually stay as one

361
00:25:39,679 --> 00:25:48,799
this time. Hi Andrew, welcome to watching the live stream. Well, live.

362
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:54,320
Um, what's your opinion on the Nexus 4? I don't know. I haven't heard much about

363
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:55,840
it. It just seems like it kind of was

364
00:25:54,320 --> 00:26:01,039
there and people were really excited about it. I I I've heard sales are

365
00:25:57,919 --> 00:26:04,000
really good. Like like it's not a huge

366
00:26:01,039 --> 00:26:09,039
talking point. I mean, it's an Android stock Android device, but honestly,

367
00:26:05,679 --> 00:26:10,799
Nexus S also wasn't a huge talking

368
00:26:09,039 --> 00:26:14,159
point. Lots of people had them. Yeah. But it wasn't a huge talking point. I

369
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:17,360
think quite a few people have Nexus 4s as Well, by comparison, you look at how

370
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:21,840
much someone like a Samsung is spending on advertising. Yeah. So, because

371
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:25,919
Samsung is pushing all their phones, Google doesn't really they do a little

372
00:26:23,679 --> 00:26:29,919
bit. I think the login page for Gmail now has something about I I didn't even

373
00:26:27,919 --> 00:26:33,279
look at it, but I saw a phone. So, maybe they're doing something, but like the

374
00:26:31,360 --> 00:26:35,919
advertising push behind Samsung is so much bigger, making it a talking point,

375
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:41,440
right? And I mean, you have to look at it from Google's perspective is why are they going to push their hardware

376
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:45,760
hardware platform so hard when ultimately it was partners like Samsung

377
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:50,880
that made Android a success that were willing to build the hardware before

378
00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:52,480
Google got around to it. Yeah. Um, so

379
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:57,279
yeah, I mean, and the other thing too though is with faster, more modern

380
00:26:54,320 --> 00:27:02,640
devices like the HTC1 and the Samsung Galaxy S4 hitting the market being

381
00:26:59,919 --> 00:27:06,000
available now, there is a unique experience with Nexus devices though.

382
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:09,919
Okay, I brought this up with my Nexus S. I went through three major platform

383
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:14,400
changes with that phone. Like that was crazy. And like right when it's

384
00:27:11,679 --> 00:27:17,039
announced as released, it's on my phone, right? Like that's one thing with the

385
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:23,760
Nexus phones. You always get the updates because you're getting pushed from Google, which is kind of fantastic.

386
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:27,320
Just that like awesome support that you expect from directly being attached to

387
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:34,080
Google, right? Let's talk about this. So, Razer

388
00:27:31,279 --> 00:27:38,880
has launched their comm software. It's in beta right now. Um, I tried to

389
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:42,640
install it and it basically just kind of closed. So, I I kind of gave up because

390
00:27:40,799 --> 00:27:46,080
I was going to test it with Slick, but what I discovered is that when I uh

391
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:50,720
reinstall it might have been a problem actually with my audio drivers. I

392
00:27:48,159 --> 00:27:55,120
updated the firmware on my SS1 and the drivers and everything's working 100%

393
00:27:53,039 --> 00:27:58,480
now. So, it might not have been Comm's problem, but I haven't tried it yet

394
00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:02,720
personally, but I sent this the link over to Slick. So, what are they trying

395
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:08,000
to do here exactly? Um, I think they're trying to replace

396
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:10,240
Skype because the interface style, like,

397
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:14,240
you know, there's the like Ventrilo TeamSpeak kind of style where there's a

398
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:17,200
server and you join and disconnect from the server and there's chat rooms and

399
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:21,279
all that kind of stuff. Yeah, it's not set up like that, right? Which is why a

400
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:25,760
lot of gamers have started using Skype instead of Yeah. the complicated setup

401
00:28:23,679 --> 00:28:29,600
that goes into that, which honestly I still kind of like I like I like Mumble.

402
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:35,840
I love Mumble. Mobile's the same kind of thing though. Yeah, same kind of thing. Oh,

403
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:41,279
right. We have something else to talk about, but I will continue this topic until we're done. Sorry, just uh mod

404
00:28:39,279 --> 00:28:46,080
chat reminded me about a serious serious thing going on. Um,

405
00:28:44,159 --> 00:28:50,720
sorry for that segue. I'll come back. So, it has the social pane just like uh

406
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:54,960
Skype does where it shows everyone on your friends list. So, on the left side,

407
00:28:52,720 --> 00:29:00,320
I'm I'm looking on his um everyone on your friends list on the left side. And

408
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:02,559
then you can open up chat groups super

409
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:06,720
super easily and you can save those chat groups. So you can kind of make channels

410
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:11,279
kind of because you can save chat groups. So if you have like your team

411
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:16,399
for whatever game you can save them all as a chat group. Are we streaming this

412
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:19,360
page? Okay. So let's see. Team Diablo. Yeah. So he's got a chat group going on.

413
00:29:18,159 --> 00:29:24,799
Apparently there's a channel within there. I haven't used it enough. I'm sorry guys. I guess you can maybe within

414
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:30,399
individual chat groups make channels. It's kind of interesting. So, that's a

415
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:32,559
cool option to do there. Um, for like

416
00:29:30,399 --> 00:29:37,399
general feedback on its performance, its autodetected settings I'm finding are

417
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:42,480
not quite as good as Skype. With Skype, as far as I can tell, anyone just

418
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:46,679
clicks call and it works, right? Like, as long as you have the right device

419
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:52,159
pointing at it and stuff, it just works. Um, with uh what is it? Comms. Yeah.

420
00:29:50,399 --> 00:29:56,880
Used it for a while. I think we had up to six people on it. And all we noticed

421
00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:01,039
that is that maybe you had to turn one dude up or maybe you had to slightly

422
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:05,279
turn your own mic down or up, but it wasn't like

423
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:10,960
uh it wasn't crazy hardcore settings. It was up or down. One slider. Like not a

424
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:15,200
big deal. Anyone can do this setup. Fairly easy level settings. Like I had a

425
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:19,039
fan in my room pointed directly at a desktop mic. So you would expect it to

426
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:23,520
pick it up. And it was a little bit but it doesn't in Skype. But then I just

427
00:30:21,279 --> 00:30:27,360
turned the slider down a little bit and it was totally fine. I see. Okay. So,

428
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:32,159
the auto detect isn't quite as awesome as Skype, but is super super easy to uh

429
00:30:29,919 --> 00:30:36,799
tune in. So, that's awesome. One big problem that a lot of Skype users,

430
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:40,320
especially myself, hate is that if we're

431
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:42,559
in a game and someone calls you

432
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:46,559
like the crazy annoying call, it's so loud. It's insanely loud and it will

433
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:50,799
probably put an overlay on your screen or it'll tab you out of your game. And

434
00:30:48,559 --> 00:30:54,240
like if someone hangs up the call, you might get tabbed out of your game and

435
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:58,080
your whole call ends if it's the person who started the call. And like there's

436
00:30:55,919 --> 00:31:05,039
all these kind of major problems. This one, it will now transfer the host. Oh,

437
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:06,880
that's cool. We think um we tried it and

438
00:31:05,039 --> 00:31:10,000
then a really really loud high-pitched noise came in and then everyone could

439
00:31:08,559 --> 00:31:14,799
hear each other, but it was kind of crackly. Okay. But it isn't the call. It

440
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:18,320
isn't beta. That's one big takeaway people need to understand. It isn't

441
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:22,720
beta. Beta. And that's not like the audio codec or anything. So, right.

442
00:31:20,799 --> 00:31:26,799
Okay. Might just deal with that for now. It'll hopefully be fixed. Um, so I think

443
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:32,559
it's supposed to transfer the host in the call. Um, if you get a call, you

444
00:31:30,159 --> 00:31:35,440
don't really get a call in a game. If you get a call in a game, it'll come up

445
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:39,679
in the bottom right hand corner. It will not tab you out. It'll pop up like a

446
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:43,120
Steam or Xfire overlay. Okay, if anyone knows about that, it has a key command

447
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:48,720
just like Steam or Xfire. So you can bind it to I think whatever you want.

448
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:50,240
But it's uh control tab. Okay. Which

449
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:54,720
still kind of sucks because crouching and then checking your score, right? But

450
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:57,200
you could change it to but I think 99% sure you can change it. I don't know why

451
00:31:55,919 --> 00:32:02,240
you wouldn't be able to. I haven't changed it yet, but I will. Um so that's

452
00:31:59,919 --> 00:32:05,519
kind of nice. Very unobtrusive while you're in games, which is Skype's

453
00:32:03,919 --> 00:32:11,600
problem, right? And then the audio is not quite as good, but after a few seconds you can get there. So Okay. So I

454
00:32:09,679 --> 00:32:14,880
actually like it a lot so far. I I think I'm going to kind of make the jump

455
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:19,200
really. I've been using Skype forever. I'm still going to use Skype for um text

456
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:26,799
chat for a lot of people just because I have more people on Skype, right?

457
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:28,080
Um but yeah, for comms in games, I hate

458
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:32,640
Skype. It pisses me off because it constantly tabs me out and just is a

459
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:36,159
massive annoyance. So I So what's the impression? You said you had six people

460
00:32:33,919 --> 00:32:39,919
on. What are they? Everyone's kind of down with it. We've tried a lot of

461
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:43,760
different voice chats. Uh, most of the guys most of the guys that haven't been

462
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:48,240
gaming as long as say like my brother and I like the Skype style where it's a

463
00:32:46,399 --> 00:32:53,360
friends list. Yeah. More than the old channel-based vent kind of style, right?

464
00:32:51,279 --> 00:32:57,200
Um, so we've been using Skype for a while, but none of us have been totally

465
00:32:55,600 --> 00:33:00,640
satisfied because of it tabbing it out of games and stuff. So, we've been looking for a different solution, but

466
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:05,679
there hasn't really been one quite as good. So, usually we'll all download the

467
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:10,080
new thing that comes out, try it for a little bit, and everyone bails and goes back to Skype. Everyone's actually been

468
00:33:08,559 --> 00:33:15,559
consistently using coms since we downloaded it. So, I wonder what's the

469
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:18,159
benefit to Razer to create this

470
00:33:15,559 --> 00:33:24,240
uh branding, I guess. I think they're doing ads on it. Okay. So, there's that.

471
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:30,240
Yeah. Price also branding is apparently their their intention. I mean, you know,

472
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:32,559
so but their branding's all over it. So,

473
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:36,159
if you're using coms for all your games and you go to a store and you're you're

474
00:33:34,559 --> 00:33:40,559
if you're just getting into gaming and your buddy who's been into gaming forever is like, "Yeah, download this

475
00:33:38,559 --> 00:33:42,799
Razer coms thing." And then you get into gaming a little bit more and you want to

476
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:46,080
buy some peripherals and you go to the store. If you see Razer on the shelf,

477
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:50,640
what are you going to think? You're probably going to want to buy the Razer thing. So, you think that's probably

478
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:54,960
their intention then? Yeah. And I think they're doing some ads. Some ads to

479
00:33:52,799 --> 00:33:58,159
help. I mean, if they run ads for the hot new game or whatever else, I think

480
00:33:56,559 --> 00:34:01,840
they have enough relationships with developers as it is. is I mean you look

481
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:04,799
at even the branded peripherals they do someone will run advertising with them

482
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:08,800
if they can get the user. I don't think they'll have a problem with getting ads.

483
00:34:06,559 --> 00:34:11,960
So I'm not 100% sure about the ads thing but I I think I remember. Very cool. So

484
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:18,760
there you go. There you go guys. Razercoms. Uh check it out. I think it's

485
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:23,280
razor.com or razorzone. Yeah. Razorzone.com whatever your region

486
00:34:21,079 --> 00:34:25,839
is or something like that. So there you go. That's what the page looks like. If

487
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,359
you Google razorcoms then that'll come up for sure. Find it. I I didn't expect

488
00:34:27,599 --> 00:34:32,720
it to be that good, especially after you said it just completely crashed. Yeah.

489
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:38,560
Well, I was like, "Ah, whatever. I'll test this out." And me and a buddy jumped on and then it was a pleasant

490
00:34:35,599 --> 00:34:44,359
surprise. So, that was cool. Um, okay. So,

491
00:34:41,359 --> 00:34:47,280
apparently, what's going on?

492
00:34:44,359 --> 00:34:50,800
Apparently, EA shut down PopCap Vancouver. Oh, really? I don't remember

493
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:54,720
when they did this, but they did it during something else. Oh, okay. Um, so

494
00:34:53,119 --> 00:34:57,440
that it it wasn't like a major news item. I I don't know if they planned

495
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:03,200
that. They probably didn't plan that, but it happened during something else big going on. I don't know if it was uh

496
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:07,119
the Boston bombing or something, but it was like something really big was going

497
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:12,320
on and they shut down Popcat Vancouver and laid off 2,000 employees.

498
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:16,320
Wow. And they're planning a complete company restructure. So, their plan to

499
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:20,119
win the hearts back of the community was to fire 2,000

500
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:24,320
people. It's probably I don't know. Oh, yeah. So,

501
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:28,640
here we go. Electronic Arts. Uh, this is on Tech Vibes that I'm on right now.

502
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:33,359
Electronic Arts, Shuttering PopCap, and Quick Lime Studios in Vancouver, sources

503
00:35:31,359 --> 00:35:39,440
say. So, this was Yeah. on the 25th of April. Yeah. Um, Electronic Arts,

504
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:43,680
dubbed, Here's a quote from, again, Tech Vibes. Electronic Arts, dubbed the worst

505
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:50,560
company in America in both 2012 and 2013, laid off 170 people in Montreal on

506
00:35:47,119 --> 00:35:53,040
April 11th, followed by this layoff,

507
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:59,160
which is uh let's see if I can get an exact number here. Internal memo,

508
00:35:56,079 --> 00:36:02,480
something about a restructuring.

509
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:05,320
Wow. Wow. That's terrible.

510
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:10,400
I mean, how much uh how could a comp how could they have

511
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:14,000
taken something like PopCap and gotten it to the point where they have to lay

512
00:36:11,599 --> 00:36:21,560
off a whole team? I mean, PopCap was rolling in money.

513
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:21,560
EA's really good at killing things. Wow.

514
00:36:22,079 --> 00:36:28,119
I mean, I feel terrible for the people who were working for doing something

515
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:34,520
that was, you know, successful and awesome and then, you know, in order for

516
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:38,720
EA to have a clean start in

517
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:41,359
2014. So, in 2011, EA bought Popcap for

518
00:36:38,720 --> 00:36:41,359
$1.3

519
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:50,160
billion. And they've they made Plants Versus Zombies and Bejeweled Blitz.

520
00:36:47,119 --> 00:36:52,480
Like, those are two huge games. Yeah. I

521
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:57,040
mean, merchandising alone, they should be able to keep these people employed.

522
00:36:54,960 --> 00:37:00,960
Sell some more zombie. Like, the amount of freaking zombie plushes and like

523
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:04,800
walnut hats that I saw at packs for a little while there was

524
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:08,760
insane. Like, everybody had a little walnut thing. Yeah, this is like

525
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:13,599
terrible news, actually. Yeah. It's never good to see like

526
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:16,079
buckets of people laid off. And it seems like every single time you hear of

527
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:21,400
layoffs in the gaming industry, it's like, "Yeah, EA just laid off like

528
00:37:18,720 --> 00:37:25,359
quadruple figure." Yeah. EA acquired something and then ran it into the

529
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:29,960
ground and just fired everyone and laid off everyone like

530
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:36,720
Well, so there's the uplifting story of the week, I guess. Yeah, that's

531
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:43,520
terrible. Um I don't know. So that's no good.

532
00:37:41,839 --> 00:37:47,280
Let's get a new item so we can be happy. Yeah. I have like nothing to say

533
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:51,119
anymore. That's just really crappy. Really crappy. And like we're not even

534
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:55,119
that fast on the upkeep. Like that was a little while ago. Yeah. It was a couple

535
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:58,160
weeks back. Yeah. Just or a week ago. Still totally crappy. Yeah. It's still

536
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:02,560
crappy. We just heard about it so it's crappy to us at least. And I'm sure it's

537
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:06,720
still crappy to the uh Yeah. Okay. Well, James makes a good

538
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:13,200
point. But PopCap made things for tablets and phones and PCs and every

539
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:16,599
platform. Yeah, there's actually I can't think of a compelling reason. It's not

540
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:21,280
like Android's going somewhere except like this. Yeah. Yeah.

541
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:26,800
Yeah. If anything, there should be more opportunities for Yeah. Apparently,

542
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:31,520
there's the goal for comms is to have only one ad and it's a banner at the

543
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:35,760
bottom. I'm getting this from my moderator chat. So, they'll have one ad

544
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:39,119
that'll probably a really high value ad, right? And it's probably just going to

545
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:44,320
chill at bottom again. Probably won't be obtrusive. Cool. Probably be fine. Yeah,

546
00:38:41,599 --> 00:38:49,760
that's outstanding. Um, so would a 16 690 or a 7990 be bottlenecked by an

547
00:38:46,839 --> 00:38:55,920
i53570K overclocked to 4.2? Um, it doesn't really matter because an

548
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:59,760
i53570K right now, I mean, who knows how things are going to change over the next

549
00:38:57,119 --> 00:39:04,079
month or so. Right now is as fast as you can get anyway. So, sure, maybe it's

550
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:09,200
bottlenecked. I don't know. What do you want me to tell you? It's as not

551
00:39:06,079 --> 00:39:11,119
bottlenecked as it can be. Every system

552
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:15,440
everywhere the one the one you're sitting in front of the one that you

553
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:19,839
used before that the one that's in your parents' room every system has a

554
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:24,560
bottleneck somewhere. It's like people ask me is this system bottlenecked? Yes,

555
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:30,920
every system is bottlenecked. It's about reducing bottlenecks and making them not

556
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:34,000
as narrow as possible. So for example, a

557
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:37,920
system with a sixcore processor and a

558
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:39,680
GTX Titan is bottlenecked in every

559
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:45,680
situation is bottlenecked by something. Your system can only be as fast as the

560
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:48,560
slowest component and some component

561
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:54,800
will always be the slowest thing for any given workload. That's just how it

562
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:56,240
works. Um so yes, yes, it will not be

563
00:39:54,800 --> 00:40:00,000
bottlenecked any more than it would otherwise have to be. The only way to

564
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:06,560
reduce that bottleneck will be to overclock that 3570K even

565
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:08,320
further. So there uh what's in yours and

566
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:14,720
Slick's personal rigs? Um well I'm running a 3970X. I'm running a GTX 590.

567
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:19,640
I've got 8 gigs of RAM in there right now cuz my memory was has been borrowed

568
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:28,160
back soon for a while. I've got eight 120 gig SSDs in a RAID zero array that I

569
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:33,760
back up nightly because that's insane. I have an XFX 1000 watt 80 plus platinum

570
00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:35,800
power supply and custom liquid cooling.

571
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:40,480
Go. Oh, I have to do things to mine first.

572
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:46,720
No, no, tell them what you have now. I have 2600K and a 660 Ti with an NRE 1200

573
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:50,359
watt true power, which is like massively actually beast.

574
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:56,880
absurdly overkill and beast and unnecessary. Um, an Octane 256 GB SSD,

575
00:40:54,480 --> 00:41:01,040
which doesn't back up. Do you really not have it set up to back

576
00:40:58,720 --> 00:41:04,480
up? It's just programs. Oh, I don't store any documents on there at all. Oh,

577
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:10,400
okay. It's just programs. Like, I could reset up that SSD in an hour or two.

578
00:41:06,720 --> 00:41:13,040
Okay. So, I don't bother. Um, and then a

579
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:17,359
like big two TBTE drive, which I do back up, that has all my games, which I don't

580
00:41:16,079 --> 00:41:22,480
need to back up, so I don't back up that folder. But then like all my documents and videos and music and everything else

581
00:41:20,319 --> 00:41:27,760
on there. Uh, what am I missing? 12 gigs of kind of mis mix mismatched RAM. Half

582
00:41:24,319 --> 00:41:29,440
of its dominators, half of it's like uh

583
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:34,480
Do you still have that AON stuff? Yep. Half of it's Anon. Nice. Kimo went out

584
00:41:31,599 --> 00:41:39,599
of business years ago. That was like four, five, four years ago. Yep. It's

585
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:44,960
like a neon RAM like a boss. Totally awesome. That was such a good deal. I

586
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:48,960
paid 10 bucks a gig for it or something

587
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:50,480
like back then for DDR3.

588
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:58,319
That's so sweet. Yeah, it's like ridiculous. Um and then um 800D

589
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:59,800
800D TJ7. Yeah.

590
00:41:58,319 --> 00:42:05,040
All right. Um apparently there are rumored GeForce

591
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:08,880
GTX 700 launch dates. We can't really comment one way or the other. Good night

592
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:13,200
from Portugal. Good night Portugal. Good night. Um, first time watching live.

593
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:16,960
Love the new schedule. Thank you. Have you tried raid call? I haven't,

594
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:21,760
unfortunately. I have. I don't mind it. Again, the group though wasn't down.

595
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:25,200
Right. Apparently, if you put Skype on busy, it won't interrupt your game, but

596
00:42:23,359 --> 00:42:30,240
it also won't tell you things. Yeah. A lot of the time, so it's like it's like

597
00:42:28,079 --> 00:42:33,200
I either get completely interrupted or I get no notifications at all. Yeah.

598
00:42:31,599 --> 00:42:36,640
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Yeah. kind of with that the thing I

599
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:41,440
liked about comms is and like another thing with comms just little like ease

600
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:48,720
of life situations where if you call someone it's like a deeper quieter tone

601
00:42:46,319 --> 00:42:53,040
instead of freaking Skype's like I'm going to kill your ears ringtone which

602
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:56,400
is nuts like being on the receiving end of a Skype call isn't even as bad as

603
00:42:54,800 --> 00:43:01,040
calling someone. It's kind of bizarre that you can't change it and it's so

604
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:05,760
loud. Like I understand it's a branding element for them. Do you always know

605
00:43:03,119 --> 00:43:10,000
when a Skype call is coming? But I mean, when you're going out, it doesn't ring

606
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:14,319
that way when you're going out. Like, it's the annoying Yeah, super

607
00:43:12,319 --> 00:43:18,079
common one. And it's insanely loud when you're going out and it's terrible and

608
00:43:15,839 --> 00:43:22,079
really annoying with comms. It's actually totally fine. I don't know.

609
00:43:20,240 --> 00:43:24,960
It's like it's I guess it's not the biggest thing, but that's one of the

610
00:43:23,359 --> 00:43:29,839
first things I noticed, right, was when I first called someone, I was like, "Oh,

611
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,440
wow. That's pleasant." Uh Kevin Norman

612
00:43:29,839 --> 00:43:36,280
says he's watching on his Nexus 4. fantastic device. Smoothest he's used.

613
00:43:33,599 --> 00:43:40,319
However, battery life is apparently not satisfactory. Uh we've talked about

614
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:43,839
NVIDIA Grid quite a few times. Uh we don't really click links during the live

615
00:43:41,839 --> 00:43:48,640
stream just cuz sometimes it's bad. Yeah. Um Frostbite says apparently call

616
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:54,800
quality is 10 times better than Skype. I haven't experienced that. Okay. He's com

617
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:59,839
saying that about comms, right? Okay. So, let's uh let's sort of move on to

618
00:43:57,599 --> 00:44:02,560
our next news topic of the day. I kind of wish we had these tabs open already.

619
00:44:01,359 --> 00:44:07,359
We're going to do some community news items. However, we have a bit of a

620
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:14,000
public service announcement uh right now with respect to people posting community

621
00:44:10,079 --> 00:44:16,480
news items because yeah, it's um we do

622
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:21,440
want to encourage people to post news items um on the Linus Tech Tips forum in

623
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:25,520
the news section. It's great. We want that to be super active. We want anyone

624
00:44:23,599 --> 00:44:29,280
visiting the forum to be able to go to the news section and kind of be able to

625
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:33,680
catch up on the tech news. Awesome. However, we don't want to run into a

626
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:40,240
situation where Linus Tech Tips forum looks like we're plagiarizing in any

627
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:42,720
way. So, don't copy paste the body of

628
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:48,000
text from someone that you're you're pulling news from unless you're

629
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:51,119
surrounding it in a quote. And I think a basic requirement for posting in the

630
00:44:49,839 --> 00:44:56,000
news section, we should probably add this to the to the guidelines is that

631
00:44:54,240 --> 00:45:00,480
you should be contributing some of your own take on it. start the discussion up

632
00:44:58,240 --> 00:45:06,400
yourself rather than just posting the topic and then kind of leaving it there.

633
00:45:03,839 --> 00:45:09,599
So say something about it, post it, quote it appropriately, and link to the

634
00:45:08,319 --> 00:45:13,359
source. I mean, everyone's been linking to the source really well as it is, but

635
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:19,680
we don't want to run into a situation where we're like bad guys because our

636
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:21,200
forum community posts um copypasted news

637
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:25,280
articles from other websites. I mean, come on. those those websites where they

638
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:30,240
just copy paste everyone else's stuff is like we don't we don't want to do that.

639
00:45:28,079 --> 00:45:34,079
The idea of the news section is yes it should be nice and fast like is already

640
00:45:32,319 --> 00:45:39,040
happening but we've had cases where people are just copy and posting things

641
00:45:36,240 --> 00:45:43,599
from articles and like he said try and start the discussion. Okay, so with all

642
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:47,680
of that said, Good Bites contributed this article where The Verge is

643
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:52,480
reporting that Intel is claiming the new Iris graphics embedded in the upcoming

644
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:57,520
Haswell CPUs can offer double or even triple the performance of Intel HD

645
00:45:54,880 --> 00:46:00,319
graphics 4000 that comes with current IV processors. There's a couple couple

646
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:06,960
things I'd like to comment on to start with. Number one is that not all IBridge

647
00:46:03,119 --> 00:46:08,880
processors have HD 4000 graphics. The

648
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:13,839
lower-end ones don't. In fact, it's only the high-end ones in many cases, which

649
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:18,560
is ridiculous, that have higherend integrated graphics. And it's like, it

650
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:24,319
makes no sense because anyone buying that CPU probably is running a dedicated

651
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:26,960
graphics card, but that's that's the way

652
00:46:24,319 --> 00:46:31,680
it's been. So, while it may be double or triple in HD4,000, compared to whatever

653
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:36,640
you're running already, it may be even more than that. So, let's go back to

654
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:42,240
back to the graph. And one thing is that it's 3D Mark 11. Well, okay, I was going

655
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:44,079
there. Okay, I wasn't. So, I want to

656
00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:49,520
point at bars on the graphs. So, the dark blue one on the far left, this is

657
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:53,640
3D Mark06, 3D Mark Vantage, and 3D Mark

658
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:58,280
11. So, the one on the far left is

659
00:46:53,640 --> 00:47:00,960
um Hold on. Oh, this color coding seems

660
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:04,720
off. Okay, well, whatever. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be colors other

661
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:10,240
than just shades of blue. Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be HD

662
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:12,720
4000. And then I'm pretty sure that uh

663
00:47:10,240 --> 00:47:19,520
one of these is supposed to be Oh crap. No, I looked at this before. Scores

664
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:21,200
normalized to the last gen and then I

665
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:25,280
think it was uh because there's going to be two different levels of Iris

666
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:30,160
integrated graphics as well. So, it's not just going to be HD whatever on

667
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:35,839
exactly the same thing. Uh, but apparently I'm getting confused

668
00:47:33,359 --> 00:47:40,560
now. So anyway, here, let's just look at this. So with the premium Iris

669
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:45,839
integrated graphics, you're looking at up to a two times increase over the last

670
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:48,400
gen product. However, I I would actually

671
00:47:45,839 --> 00:47:51,760
look at something like 3D Mark06 as more of an indicator for something like this

672
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:56,400
because of a couple things. So number one is 3D Mark 11 and 3D Mark Vantage

673
00:47:54,640 --> 00:48:01,839
are both going to perform significantly better when you have more features

674
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:04,960
enabled on the hardware. So Iris looks

675
00:48:01,839 --> 00:48:07,440
like it's probably a DirectX11 part,

676
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:12,000
which doesn't mean that it's necessarily twice as powerful, but if it has more

677
00:48:09,839 --> 00:48:16,800
features, it'll inherently score better on 3D Mark 11 than a nondirectx11 part.

678
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:22,559
Whereas if you go back to Ivy Bridge, that was a DirectX10 level part. So if

679
00:48:20,720 --> 00:48:28,240
you go back to a really old benchmark like 3D Mark06 then you are looking at

680
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:31,880
it as okay well let's take away any advantage they get from an updated

681
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:37,119
feature set let's go based on raw horsepower uh it looks like more of

682
00:48:34,240 --> 00:48:42,000
maybe a 40 to 50% improvement and then 3D Mark is often very

683
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:48,319
theoretical and so we might be looking at a smaller improvement than even that

684
00:48:45,559 --> 00:48:51,440
but you know leave it to leave it to well Slick I was going to say me and

685
00:48:49,839 --> 00:48:55,520
Slick to test it and let you guys know what's actually up. But in all

686
00:48:53,280 --> 00:49:00,319
likelihood, it'll probably be Slick who is uh figuring out how Haswell stacks

687
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:04,319
up. We asked Intel this time around. In the past, we'd only asked for K chips

688
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:09,440
because we know our audience is mostly interested in that, but actually we have

689
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:13,599
uh four Haswell chips. So, I'm going to run and grab them. Um so that we can

690
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:17,280
tell you guys not probably can't hear you anymore. Okay, you tell them so that

691
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:22,000
why we're doing that. Um I don't actually know why we're doing that.

692
00:49:18,559 --> 00:49:25,839
because of lower TDPs. No. So we can

693
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:28,800
evaluate the lower levels of integrated

694
00:49:25,839 --> 00:49:34,240
graphics cards. Oh, right. Okay. I hope they heard that. Yeah. Mod's not telling

695
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:37,040
me. So that we can take these chips and

696
00:49:34,240 --> 00:49:41,319
we can compare them to the actual appropriate market competitor. Because

697
00:49:38,559 --> 00:49:45,760
it's one thing if we take, you know, a 3770K and we compare that to AMD's APU

698
00:49:44,319 --> 00:49:50,880
and it's like, okay, well, it costs three times as much, almost four times

699
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:55,680
as much, and the lower-end Intel chip doesn't have the same onboard graphics

700
00:49:52,559 --> 00:49:58,319
as a 3770K. So this way we can take

701
00:49:55,680 --> 00:50:03,440
something like a 4430 which is one of the ones that we asked for and we can

702
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:05,680
compare that against the last generation

703
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:10,200
products as well as AMD's APUs and let you guys know if you want a low-end

704
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:16,160
entrylevel gaming experience on the cheap. How well does does Haswell

705
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:18,079
actually stack up for you? So So yeah,

706
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:24,160
there you go. The Verge is talking about this Intel. Obviously those slides have

707
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:28,800
Intel all over them. There's a nice big Intel logo. So, I wonder where that came

708
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:32,720
from. They only used blue. And the whole slide is

709
00:50:30,119 --> 00:50:34,800
blue. So, that's that's Intel's spin on it. But, we're gonna we're going to

710
00:50:33,839 --> 00:50:39,200
check it out. We're going to let you guys know. What I've seen already from

711
00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:42,880
some of the die shots. So, for those of you who don't know, the die is the part

712
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:46,720
of the CPU. There's there's a big metal piece on top. The die is the actual

713
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:51,200
silicon inside that actually does all the work. And from some of the die shots

714
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:57,040
that I've seen, the GPU portion of Haswell is huge. Yeah. Percentage wise

715
00:50:54,720 --> 00:51:01,440
compared to Ivy Bridge. So, I'm expecting a big performance improvement,

716
00:50:59,359 --> 00:51:05,040
but I just don't know if it'll be that or if it'll be something else or, you

717
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:08,880
know, depend on the game, depend on the drivers, all these things. So, let's

718
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:16,559
move on to our next community news topic. This one is

719
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:18,720
D was posted by Josie.

720
00:51:16,559 --> 00:51:26,800
Okay, so there's a picture of what is rumored to be the HTC M4. So the HTC1 is

721
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:30,079
a phone that I have been using for over

722
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:34,319
a month now. I absolutely love it quite

723
00:51:30,079 --> 00:51:36,960
honestly. Um I got a Samsung Galaxy S4

724
00:51:34,319 --> 00:51:42,160
about two weeks ago and I haven't actually brought myself to move my SIM

725
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:44,240
into it yet.

726
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:50,480
That's actually kind of funny. S4 has some cool features. We did use it for um

727
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:53,280
for like a a spot in a video where I'm getting a call from someone and I wave

728
00:51:51,839 --> 00:51:57,440
at the phone to answer it and it works and it's cool. Smart stays cool where it

729
00:51:55,599 --> 00:52:03,599
locks onto your eyes and doesn't dim the screen when you're reading things. Um

730
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:05,119
it's wicked fast, super fast. the fact

731
00:52:03,599 --> 00:52:08,800
that they have a built-in like I have power toggles on my phone so I can

732
00:52:06,720 --> 00:52:13,359
quickly turn off my Wi-Fi and do things like that. But the fact that they have a

733
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:17,280
built-in uh power toggles that's like this big and has every setting you could

734
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:22,720
possibly need on the S4 is really cool as well. You know, nice and quick. It's

735
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:27,440
efficiency-minded. But I just love I'm I'm an

736
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:30,240
Apple convert. I came from an iPhone. I

737
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:34,000
want something that feels like Yeah, it's like solid. It doesn't bend. I've

738
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:37,119
dropped it. It didn't break more than once. I've dropped it a couple times.

739
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:42,319
It's got a couple dents on it and like pretty far onto tile. Onto tile. I've

740
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:46,720
dropped it. It's happened. These things happen. When I saw it, he dropped it

741
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:50,640
from up here and it like hit a chair, like a wooden chair, and then flipped

742
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:54,880
like crazy and smacked against tile. So, that was not cool. I was not happy. No.

743
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,760
Didn't scratch the screen, fortunately, which is really nice. I think it landed

744
00:52:56,319 --> 00:53:01,760
on the screen, right? Uh, it landed on the edge on the corner on the corner of

745
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:06,880
the edge, which can be a sensitive spot. Oh yeah. Um, so, so anyway, I'm excited

746
00:53:05,119 --> 00:53:12,160
about the M4 for a couple reasons. Number one is if I had to complain about

747
00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:16,240
something about the one, it's that it's still a little bit big for me. I can use

748
00:53:14,559 --> 00:53:22,319
it one-handed. It's extremely awkward for me, though. I have small hands. The

749
00:53:18,240 --> 00:53:26,480
M4 is rumored to be a 4.3 in smartphone,

750
00:53:22,319 --> 00:53:28,240
which will make it like Oh. Oh, that I

751
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:32,640
like that even more. That'd be perfect for me. Isn't it a little bit spec

752
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:37,599
chopped? It is. So, the rumored specs, it's still going to be dual core

753
00:53:34,079 --> 00:53:40,359
processor, LTE capable, 16 gig storage.

754
00:53:37,599 --> 00:53:45,119
Um, ultraixel camera, which is nice to see. Um, because it really I actually I

755
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:49,359
took some I took a picture of the other night of uh of my baby uh playing with

756
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:54,640
an Ethernet cable. And someone on Instagram was like, "Did you take that picture with the one?" Because

757
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:58,880
considering how little light was in there and how good it looked, how much

758
00:53:56,720 --> 00:54:03,440
detail there was, it's awesome. When you compare the HTC1, the Ultraixels to

759
00:54:01,119 --> 00:54:09,359
something like a Galaxy S4 in broad daylight, the S4 destroys it because

760
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:14,000
more pixels, if you can get the light to them, will give you a sharper image that

761
00:54:11,599 --> 00:54:18,400
you can blow up to all, you know, oblivion. Often can't. That's you just

762
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:21,680
often can't do it. Um, you know, it's funny. People ask about the marks on my

763
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:24,640
necks neck in some videos. I don't know if you guys saw me. I scratched my neck

764
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:28,800
a little while ago. My skin stays really red for a long time. You can see it in

765
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:32,319
there. My skin stays really red for a long time whenever I scratch it. So, a

766
00:54:30,720 --> 00:54:39,200
lot of the time it's just like eh and then I end up with a weird mark on my

767
00:54:34,599 --> 00:54:41,839
neck. Um, so anyway, 720p screen, uh, 2

768
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:46,319
gigs RAM. They're saying similar build quality to the HTC1. Is it going to go

769
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:50,240
through the same manufacturing process? Which is very cool. They they have to

770
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:53,200
cost it down somewhat, I would expect. Well, how much cheaper is it going to

771
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:57,839
be? I don't know because you look at like the one's already what a 199 with

772
00:54:55,520 --> 00:55:03,599
threeyear term phone. So maybe this will be a 99 with three-year term phone. Wow.

773
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:07,920
Making I mean would you consider something like that if you were up for

774
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:09,200
renewal or would you go Nexus actually

775
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:16,079
there? That's a good question. What would you do? Guys, I want to hear from you on Twitter. Would you go for build

776
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:21,119
quality and construction and speed of the device or support or would you go

777
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:24,960
for direct Android support and stock Android experience? What's more

778
00:55:22,720 --> 00:55:28,640
important to you and why? And I'll let Slick answer his question while we uh go

779
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:32,400
through that. I don't know actually. I haven't had enough actual hands-on time

780
00:55:30,319 --> 00:55:35,680
with a one and I haven't had any actual hands-on time with the recent Nexus

781
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:41,040
phone. Okay. You've heard me rave about it though. Yes, but again I haven't

782
00:55:37,839 --> 00:55:43,040
touched any at all with the Nexus phone.

783
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:46,319
But you know what your Nexus experience was like compared to the S3? My Nexus S

784
00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:50,160
was my favorite phone I ever owned. Okay. So, knowing that, would you would

785
00:55:48,720 --> 00:55:54,480
you just kind of blindly go for it? Next, very possibly. The reason why I

786
00:55:52,079 --> 00:55:58,720
got an S3, like I like my S3, but the reason why I got one was because Nexus

787
00:55:56,079 --> 00:56:03,359
was not available, right? It wasn't because I actually chose it over that.

788
00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:08,720
My carrier did not have anything else, right? I had like four options. Okay.

789
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:14,240
Like it was not that many options. And like S2 S2 was one of them. S3. Yeah.

790
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:18,160
And then I don't actually remember the other two, but like it was it was an S3

791
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:22,559
that I was going to get because it was clearly the best option. Um and at that

792
00:56:20,720 --> 00:56:26,480
time there was only two that I would really want and it was Nexus or S3 and I

793
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:30,000
was going to get the Nexus if I could because of the amazing experience I had

794
00:56:28,240 --> 00:56:33,200
with Nexus S, right? But I didn't have the option and S3 was a really good

795
00:56:31,599 --> 00:56:37,520
solution. So Okay. Well, let's take it as a more general thing then. Forget the

796
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:41,599
one, forget the current gen Nexus. Would you take the guarantee of software

797
00:56:39,359 --> 00:56:45,040
support or would you take the beefy hardware and the nice feeling build

798
00:56:43,359 --> 00:56:51,200
quality? What's more important to you? The device or the software? Uh, with

799
00:56:48,079 --> 00:56:53,680
mobile right now. Yeah. Almost the

800
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:58,559
software. You think so? But what if I mean honestly HTC has been one of the

801
00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:01,680
more cooperative manufacturers in terms of unlocking bootloaders. And I was just

802
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:06,799
going to say with certain bootloaders and stuff, you might just be able to install it yourself. So, there's that if

803
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:10,799
it's with HTC, but there's been certain phones that have been problematic with

804
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:17,119
that, right? So, it's it's interesting. Um, I'd have to do more research on

805
00:57:14,079 --> 00:57:20,559
older HTC phones to see how they reacted

806
00:57:17,119 --> 00:57:22,319
to different things. Okay. Like, like

807
00:57:20,559 --> 00:57:27,839
their perspective on people messing with their stuff. I suspect that with their

808
00:57:25,119 --> 00:57:31,280
current attitude, which is, "Holy crap, we're

809
00:57:28,599 --> 00:57:35,760
desperate. We have to get the community like on board. they got to be on our

810
00:57:34,079 --> 00:57:38,960
side. We need to make this then it would probably be fine and I would probably

811
00:57:37,119 --> 00:57:44,160
end up going with a one. I mean looking at okay looking at sort of the fact that

812
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:48,720
they're even launching an M4 is extremely encouraging. Like I as you

813
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:53,520
guys probably know I have a contact at HTC who provides us with phones. We've

814
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:58,240
done some giveaways. Uh we do we've done I switched with two of their phones now.

815
00:57:55,680 --> 00:58:02,880
Um the overall impression that I get is they're extremely

816
00:58:00,119 --> 00:58:08,720
pleased with demand and sales for the one which it means they have some cash.

817
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:10,640
Yeah. Which is allowing them to produce

818
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:14,640
something like an M4. I mean they were so close to the edge or even produce

819
00:58:12,799 --> 00:58:17,839
more once. Or even produce more once. They were so close to the edge they

820
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:21,200
couldn't get cameras for the one because they weren't a tier one supplier

821
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:24,160
anymore. Whereas I suspect that's going to change over the next little bit with

822
00:58:22,799 --> 00:58:30,000
how much excitement. I mean, did you see the Anant review of the S4 and the Anant

823
00:58:27,599 --> 00:58:34,720
review of the One? Yeah. The entire One review was basically slamming the S4 and

824
00:58:32,559 --> 00:58:38,960
the entire S4 review was, "Well, but wait, you could also get this other

825
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:43,200
thing." Yeah. I was like, "Really? You guys did that?" We got flamed because

826
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:46,720
people were like, "Oh, it wasn't that bad." Read between the lines, people. It

827
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:52,040
was that bad. Read between the lines. when a major publication says that they

828
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:57,359
mean like like that's what they were doing.

829
00:58:54,720 --> 00:59:00,400
Yeah. Yeah. And I was like, whoa. But I mean, you know, it's not like a major

830
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:04,960
publication is going to not is going to get snubbed on a future Galaxy device.

831
00:59:02,799 --> 00:59:07,760
You know, if anything, Samsung's probably going to come back with

832
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:12,640
something to prove. I think they've proven time and time again that they are

833
00:59:10,359 --> 00:59:17,960
resilient when it comes to being dominant at things. It's like we I mean

834
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:23,119
where was Samsung for TVs 10 years

835
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:24,319
ago, five years ago. Yeah. Yeah. Now

836
00:59:23,119 --> 00:59:29,359
they're just like why would you buy anything but a Samsung TV? If you walked

837
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:33,760
into a store, what would you buy? Not a Samsung TV. What would you buy? What is

838
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:40,000
it? Psyche. Psycho. Oh, okay. We can talk about that. But okay. Okay. A month

839
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:42,319
ago 50inch 50-inch 4K LED TV. I'm not

840
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:47,680
buying a Samsung TV. I'm buying a psycho 50inch. A key or whatever it is. What

841
00:59:45,359 --> 00:59:53,839
was it? Was it $1199 or $12.99? It was $1.99. $1199. It's at a new low. $1,200

842
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:58,480
gets you a 4K TV. And I think there was a shipping promo on it from Tiger Direct

843
00:59:55,839 --> 01:00:01,119
at one point. Well, Groupon, it's free shipping. Group the Groupon is free.

844
00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:06,079
Okay. Free shipping. Is it still running? I have no idea. Okay, guys. I

845
01:00:04,559 --> 01:00:09,599
hope I sent it to you. It's in your email. It's in my email. Okay. Okay,

846
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:15,280
guys. We're gonna we're going to launch this up for you because you can be 4K

847
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:19,440
ready now. Apparently, it might be Psyche. I don't know. Psyche. I didn't

848
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:24,160
look at the name for Psyche. Okay. Apparently, this is still running. So,

849
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:26,880
I'm going to Look, look. Free shipping,

850
01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:32,400
free returns. So, if there's some kind of a problem. Okay, hold on. Hold on,

851
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:34,400
guys. If you want a 4K TV, psycho, we

852
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:37,920
don't get any kind of referral fee or anything for this. So, we have we have

853
01:00:36,319 --> 01:00:41,599
no skin in the game when it comes to whether you buy one of these. Oh,

854
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:47,680
there's four hours left. Look at that. Wow. So, the timing is perfect. So, you

855
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:51,200
for 11. Should I just buy one right now? Oh my goodness. Should I just do it? Oh

856
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:55,400
my god. Is that the craziest thing ever? That's pretty freaking crazy. Should I

857
01:00:52,960 --> 01:01:00,160
just do it? What do you think? No. Okay. No. It's Slick's fault I didn't buy one.

858
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:06,200
So, my my wife's going to be super pleased with you. Yay. But you got just

859
01:01:02,559 --> 01:01:09,920
under five hours to buy a 4K TV for um

860
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:13,920
$1,200. Now get this. Uh I feel like the

861
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:16,079
I feel like QVC right now

862
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:20,160
for a limited time only. You can get this

863
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:22,559
4K. Um free shipping, free returns. I

864
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:26,960
forget who it was. It wasn't N Gadget. It might not have been Gizmodo, but I

865
01:01:24,799 --> 01:01:30,559
was reading an article from one of the writers at a fairly major publication

866
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:34,559
like that. Like I I don't know if it was wired like it was one of those guys and

867
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:38,960
they were saying this thing's actually kind of incredible. Like it's not just a

868
01:01:37,119 --> 01:01:43,440
piece of crap. And you know what? It's one of those things where people see it and they go, "Oh, it's too good to be

869
01:01:41,599 --> 01:01:47,520
true because the other traditional manufacturers aren't doing this." But

870
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:51,200
you know what? They could. They could. If if either of us had the money, I

871
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:56,240
would suggest that either of us bought it. Just to like clear up Twitch chat

872
01:01:53,920 --> 01:02:00,880
being unhappy with me. Neither of us should actually buy. Uh, I don't really

873
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:07,799
have the money right now. No. So, okay, but get this. This is a 1080p screen.

874
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:11,040
This notebook entirely costs like 1,200

875
01:02:07,799 --> 01:02:12,960
bucks. So, if you can't manufacture four

876
01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:18,960
of the screen for 1,200 bucks, then you suck. Um, so they could do it, they just

877
01:02:16,079 --> 01:02:24,799
don't. So, so Sei's basically gone, "Yep, we are going to screw the

878
01:02:22,319 --> 01:02:30,640
traditional market and we are going to drive pricing down. We're going to buy

879
01:02:26,799 --> 01:02:33,040
market share by doing this. And uh yeah,

880
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:38,480
whatever everyone else. Yeah, come at me, bro. Like I honestly I wouldn't be

881
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:43,119
surprised if like Seiki's CEO gets like assassinated.

882
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:45,680
Like Yeah. The amount of people have

883
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:52,079
been killed for less money than Seiki just lost for Sony, Samsung, LG, other

884
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:55,119
guys like that. 100%. There's more than one person I've seen go by in the Twitch

885
01:02:53,599 --> 01:02:58,640
chat. I don't know how honest this is, but more than one person so far, other

886
01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:04,880
than wanting me fired for telling you not to buy it. Um, but more than one

887
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:06,640
person has gone gone by so far, um,

888
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:11,040
saying that they've bought it already. Really? Yeah. Wow. So, Groupon should be

889
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:17,039
giving us, mind you, I don't think there's much margin left in that to give us a cut. Groupon kind of removes all of

890
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:21,520
the margin. Yeah. Reaper is saying, "Did you actually just buy one?" I know one

891
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:25,839
of my Twitch mods is saying that he just bought one. Seriously?

892
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:29,359
Oh, that's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Apparently, one of the Twitch mods just

893
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:32,559
bought one. So, there you go, guys. Wow. We should start, you know what? We

894
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:36,160
should figure out like affiliate programs that are good and we should

895
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:40,240
actually tell these people deals that don't suck because if we We could do

896
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:42,799
like a a deal of the week or something. Deal of the week or we have to like make

897
01:03:41,599 --> 01:03:48,640
sure it doesn't suck. You know what, guys? Okay, we're going to go through the Twitter responses that I asked for

898
01:03:46,319 --> 01:03:53,119
before, but would you guys be down if we found something this crazy and we were

899
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:56,720
getting a 3% cut or whatever we were getting on it. Would you guys be down to

900
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:59,760
have us tell you that we found a cool a cool deal? So there, let us know what

901
01:03:58,799 --> 01:04:04,880
you think because we got to figure out if you guys even Wow, Twitch chat is

902
01:04:02,319 --> 01:04:08,960
Twitch chat is like extremely in support because we don't want to be we don't

903
01:04:06,559 --> 01:04:12,720
want to be QVC. That's not what we are. We already do unboxings, which as far as

904
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:18,079
I'm concerned is not that far away from basically just video merchandising for

905
01:04:15,039 --> 01:04:21,440
the product. So apparently people are

906
01:04:18,079 --> 01:04:23,599
Twitch chat is very very into it. Twitch

907
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:26,680
chat is apparently pleased. I haven't seen a single person with this deal

908
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:31,760
we've presented. Twitch chat is pleased. So uh

909
01:04:30,079 --> 01:04:34,799
so there you go. Let's um let's go back. What question did I ask on Twitter? I

910
01:04:33,839 --> 01:04:38,720
actually don't remember. I don't remember anymore. Fire like a 4K TV. Oh,

911
01:04:37,039 --> 01:04:42,480
okay. There's a lot of there's a lot of Twitter. Okay, so Slick, you're fired

912
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:45,280
apparently. Um, what are your thoughts on Google Glass? You know what? This is

913
01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:49,280
one of the topics I do want to talk about later. I think Google Glass is a

914
01:04:47,359 --> 01:04:53,039
great idea. What time is it? And I don't really care about it at all right now.

915
01:04:51,039 --> 01:04:56,880
One thing, we got to do build logs before the end of the stream. Oh, wow.

916
01:04:54,400 --> 01:05:00,000
Okay. And I want to do a call out for the forum and something on the forum

917
01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:04,960
before the end of the stream. Okay. I'm put I'm putting this down. Forum call

918
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:07,599
out build logs. So, I'm adding that to make sure we don't forget this stuff

919
01:05:06,160 --> 01:05:11,359
cuz, you know, I felt like we started out a little slow today, but we have

920
01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:15,839
picked up some steam here. So, we'll talk about Google Glass. Okay. Right. I

921
01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:18,880
asked about uh phone software versus hardware. So, let's go back and let's

922
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:25,920
take some of these uh take some of these callers. Caller, you're on the you're online as tech tips.

923
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:28,240
Um I like the BBZ10 because I can

924
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:31,680
install apps from Android. I've heard about that. Try that. Uh Slick's done

925
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:35,280
his day one video. We're going to upload it soon. I've heard that the support for

926
01:05:33,359 --> 01:05:39,119
it is kind of funky. Okay, so let's um but I haven't tried it yet. Um so I'm

927
01:05:37,359 --> 01:05:42,799
going to try that and hopefully in a review soon I will be talking. We'll get

928
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:48,319
into that in Slick's I Switched. He's doing a 30-day BlackBerry 10 trial. So

929
01:05:46,079 --> 01:05:51,920
um no, you can't over you can't RMA a card because it doesn't overclock.

930
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:56,079
Sorry. Sorry, man. How's the AMO LED on the S4 at night? The AMO LED on the S4

931
01:05:54,559 --> 01:06:02,880
is actually outstanding compared to the S3. It doesn't have that same blurriness. It's still not quite like

932
01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:07,280
LCD in terms of if you look at it under a microscope, but it looks pretty darn

933
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:12,680
good. Which socket should I get for an Intel gaming rig? I'd still go 1155, but

934
01:06:09,839 --> 01:06:16,720
if you can hold off for about 30 days. Uh, should you get one of those special

935
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:20,880
agent wired earpieces for when you're sitting on the live stream? I almost do

936
01:06:19,119 --> 01:06:26,559
cuz I wear I don't wear it the whole time, but I have my inear pro. First day

937
01:06:23,039 --> 01:06:28,240
forum member. Very nice. Everyone should

938
01:06:26,559 --> 01:06:32,559
join the forum if you haven't already. Linus techtips.com. I can transition

939
01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:38,000
from that into my forum call. We are serious business. Uh, okay. Okay, hold

940
01:06:36,079 --> 01:06:44,319
that thought cuz Okay, so this guy says, "I'd go HTC1." HTC1 more more batter. He

941
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:49,920
either means better or baller. I'm not quite sure which. Um, Samsung Galaxy S3

942
01:06:47,359 --> 01:06:54,480
user so far hate interacting with Sense UI from HTC. I'm with TouchWiz on this

943
01:06:52,480 --> 01:07:00,240
until they improve. So he's saying software is a huge factor for him or

944
01:06:57,599 --> 01:07:03,760
she. Jamie Jamie could software is very easily as a Nexus 4 owner. I'd go for

945
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:07,760
the phone that gets updated first. Get all the jelly beans. Okay. Build

946
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:11,280
quality. I'm a skater and I've broken lots of phones. There's an interesting

947
01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:14,720
perspective. That's a very good point. Build quality with custom firmware. If

948
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:19,839
it doesn't fit my needs stock, all right, I have a Nexus 4. Isn't as

949
01:07:17,119 --> 01:07:23,839
amazing as the HTC1. Both both sides glass still feels good. I prefer Nexus

950
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:28,400
device. Hardware quality is way more important to Eric. So, it looks like

951
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:30,160
people are very divided on this issue.

952
01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:33,280
Very interesting. It really depends on what you do. Like the skater, that was

953
01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:36,319
actually one of my favorite comments. Great point. I'm a skater. I break

954
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:39,440
phones. Okay. He's going to want to wait more durable phones. Fantastic point.

955
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:43,280
Makes sense. Conversation. What do you guys think about bitcoins? We're actually going to be starting a Bitcoin

956
01:07:41,839 --> 01:07:47,039
mining pool on the forum at some point. So, check it out.

957
01:07:44,839 --> 01:07:50,799
Maybe more and more complicated, but Okay. Okay. Maybe not. Andrew says, "Of

958
01:07:49,119 --> 01:07:55,200
course, build quality. wants the device to last. At least if you don't get a

959
01:07:52,799 --> 01:07:58,799
software update, the device might still work. Yes, but like if you But you

960
01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:04,000
dropped your Nexus S all over the place tons. Like it wasn't bad build quality.

961
01:08:01,839 --> 01:08:07,760
It just wasn't like solid piece aluminum. Dion says, "I'd go with

962
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:11,440
software because better software means a better experience." Did Slick's S3

963
01:08:09,839 --> 01:08:17,679
battery life drop significantly after he updated to Jellybean? You should talk about that. Yep, definitely. Um, and

964
01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:23,839
then your forum thing. And then my forum thing. Yeah, it dropped massively, but

965
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:25,359
it kind of came back. So, tell for for

966
01:08:23,839 --> 01:08:30,880
about a week or two, my brother and I both had a problem where the battery life on our S3 just completely tanked. I

967
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:36,960
have a screenshot of my battery app telling me I was at 20% battery life and I had 5 minutes left and I was not super

968
01:08:35,359 --> 01:08:42,880
actively using my phone. So, that was kind of nuts. Um, but then it's just

969
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:46,640
kind of fixed. So, I'm not actually entirely sure what even happened. Well,

970
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:50,000
you were telling me the other day that it seems like when you charge it from

971
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:56,159
the wall, when I charge it from the wall, it actually seems to last at 100%

972
01:08:53,279 --> 01:09:00,000
charge on battery reading at 100%. If I charge it from USB to my computer

973
01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:04,719
compared to USB to my wall, USB from my computer, it will last drastically less

974
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:09,759
time than USB from the wall. So guys, S3 users, let us know if you observe the

975
01:09:08,239 --> 01:09:13,120
same thing. Someone make a someone make a post on the forum. Yeah. Under uh

976
01:09:11,759 --> 01:09:19,120
mobile devices. Let's talk about this. Let's figure out what's going on. Yeah, very very bizarre. Um, so let's speaking

977
01:09:17,199 --> 01:09:23,600
of the forum forum call out. Go. Okay, so first off, I want to thank all my

978
01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:28,239
people again. Mr. Wizard for again making just everything happen. He's kind

979
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:33,359
of a wizard. So Mr. Wizard, if if he doesn't already know, is going to be

980
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:37,440
getting some kind of a beast gaming rig sometime in the next couple months here

981
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:41,440
for all the contribution he's made. He's we're gonna hook him up with a Naz

982
01:09:39,359 --> 01:09:44,319
that's going to have RAID five backup. I don't think you've told him this yet,

983
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:51,120
have you? Nope. Okay. We're going to be hooking him up with a Naz that's going to have RAID five backup because right

984
01:09:47,440 --> 01:09:53,279
now he's using like 10 ghetto like

985
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:57,840
couple hundred gig hard drives. He cut a hole in part of his case and then bent

986
01:09:56,159 --> 01:10:02,239
the metal back so that he could shove a hard drive in there. And then right now

987
01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:04,960
he has the hard drive cases cages outside of his case cuz they don't

988
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:10,480
properly fit with some of his hardware. So he's like running long SATA cables into his case. Totally unacceptable for

989
01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:14,000
for someone who's contributed that much to the Linus tech tips for him. I mean,

990
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:16,400
the hours he's put in are countless, like days and days and days, days and

991
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:22,080
days and days and days and days. We haven't paid him a penny. And he dealt with not to hate on Vivolton now that

992
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:26,960
they've given us a refund, but he dealt with VBolton, which was nuts. Y So, we

993
01:10:25,199 --> 01:10:30,880
already hooked him up with a 590, but we're going to be following that up with

994
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:35,199
a full gaming rig at some point here in the near future. So, uh, so thank you,

995
01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:39,120
Mr. Wizard, because we're doing amazing things now. Um, IPS is awesome.

996
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:42,960
Everything's awesome. Thank you, mod team, for sticking with us. Um, thank

997
01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:46,480
you to all the members of the forum and the mod team and Mr. Wizard again for

998
01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:50,640
sticking with us through these crazy downtimes we've been having the last little while. We're rolling out a

999
01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:54,400
solution that will hopefully fix it, but we'll talk about that more maybe next

1000
01:10:52,640 --> 01:11:00,719
live stream. Yeah, next live stream. Not yet. Um, and I want to do boink and

1001
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:02,880
folding call outs real quick. Sure. So,

1002
01:11:00,719 --> 01:11:08,640
boink Oh, there it goes. Boink. Our world rating is uh 176 out of almost

1003
01:11:06,239 --> 01:11:13,280
100,000 teams and we climb about 10 places a day. So, we're doing great

1004
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:16,320
there. Um, our Canadian ranking is 42

1005
01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:19,120
out of almost 2200 teams. Wow. So, we're

1006
01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:24,400
doing pretty great there as well. Um, a big thanks to Ryan L. Booth from the

1007
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:27,840
Boink Team Captain because he's been doing awesome and contributing a ton at

1008
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:31,840
this pace. In about three and a half months, we should be 13th place in

1009
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:36,880
Canada and 550th in the world. So, Boink's doing just awesome. I had a

1010
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:40,560
folding update somewhere, but I don't remember where it is. By the way,

1011
01:11:39,199 --> 01:11:45,280
there's a shout out from the Boink team to the folding team as a like thank you

1012
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:51,360
for being awesome and contributing your gigahertz to a good cause. Um, more

1013
01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:52,719
gigahertz. Hopefully Wher can throw me a

1014
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:59,040
folding update here because I don't remember what it Okay, well I can move on. I have lots of topics to to move on

1015
01:11:56,000 --> 01:12:01,600
to. So, uh, AMD has slashed prices on

1016
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:08,159
CPUs and APUs. They also launched a couple products. So, check this out. You

1017
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:10,320
can get an A6 3600 which is a quad core

1018
01:12:08,159 --> 01:12:14,360
APU if I were that's a quad core isn't it? I think so. I think so. Which is

1019
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:21,040
basically a Okay, let's look at the A83800 because that is a decent CPU for

1020
01:12:18,480 --> 01:12:27,760
under a hundred bucks with a decent onboard GPU. Even the A85600 K, check

1021
01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:29,520
that out. Under $100. That's probably

1022
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:34,320
the one that I should have talked about first because that is crazy. That's an

1023
01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:39,520
unlocked chip so you can overclock it. It comes with the best onboard graphics

1024
01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:44,880
that you can get other than I think the A10 is clocked a little bit higher but

1025
01:12:41,440 --> 01:12:47,520
it's basically there and I mean quite

1026
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:52,880
frankly I mean in our testing where we went 8350 versus

1027
01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:54,800
3570K. Did you ever feel like the 8350

1028
01:12:52,880 --> 01:13:00,000
was holding back your gaming experience in some tangible way? Not really. So

1029
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:03,760
yes, the 3570K benchmark's better. It's faster. And you know what? Quite

1030
01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:08,159
frankly, I prefer Intel platforms because I find I have fewer sort of

1031
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:14,320
random driver issues, whether it's with a SATA driver when I swap out a bunch of

1032
01:13:10,159 --> 01:13:17,679
stuff. I love rapid storage tech. Um,

1033
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:19,840
Intel's uh the Intel's like SATA AHCI

1034
01:13:17,679 --> 01:13:25,360
manager. It's amazing. Makes my life better. Um, I use Intel platforms. I

1035
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:31,760
prefer them. With that said, when we're talking about $100 for a chip and a

1036
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:37,280
cheap FM2 board, that will basically get you a platform upgrade for probably 200

1037
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:43,760
bucks if you buy yourself like 4 to 8 gigs of RAM, a cheap board, and an A8.

1038
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:49,040
And honestly, why buy a console? The driver thing, which you and I have both

1039
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:50,320
brought up offcreen before, but AMD's

1040
01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:55,520
been making leaps and bounds in the driver field. True. that and the the

1041
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:59,560
better driver assumption for Intel. I'm not talking graphics. No. So, if you're

1042
01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:03,920
using onboard graphics, AMD gets the nod there for

1043
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:07,520
sure. I mean, how much experience do they have compared to Intel when it

1044
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:11,600
comes to gaming? And to jump in line with the comment right below this post

1045
01:14:09,440 --> 01:14:14,800
actually. Yeah. Um, he's talking about how especially like I don't know if he

1046
01:14:13,199 --> 01:14:18,480
actually brings this up exactly, but especially with nextG consoles coming

1047
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:24,239
out, instead of rebying your whole setup, uh, it might be might be time to

1048
01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:28,560
get a gaming PC to move to gaming PCs. I mean, they've got the FX8320, which is

1049
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:32,080
an unlocked chip. There's pretty much once you overclock them, pretty much no

1050
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:37,440
performance disadvantage compared to an 8350. That's an 8 core, and the

1051
01:14:34,719 --> 01:14:42,480
wholesaler bulk pricing is that 153 bucks. I mean, this is like just

1052
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:47,120
earthshattering stuff. It's awesome. Um, so, so go AMD. I I don't know if you

1053
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:50,960
guys saw this, but AMD's stock price has gone like this. So, between some of the

1054
01:14:49,199 --> 01:14:54,080
new people they've been acquiring, between them beating their projections,

1055
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:58,719
between them being the technology powering both major upcoming consoles.

1056
01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:02,080
Well, all three. They're the GPU and the Wii U for that matter. I mean, I said

1057
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:05,840
major consoles. Whether was that a slight at Nintendo? I love Nintendo. I'm

1058
01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:12,040
not going to I'm not going to beat up on them. But if EA developed a game for a Nintendo platform, then I'd still go

1059
01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:18,480
after that. So that's the line for me. But um but AMD is powering all that.

1060
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:21,760
So AMD stock has just exploded, which

1061
01:15:18,480 --> 01:15:23,440
means hopefully a little bit more uh

1062
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:28,000
well, a little a little bit more room to breathe for they've been struggling.

1063
01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:34,320
They for a little while there. It was it was looking like it might be game over.

1064
01:15:30,719 --> 01:15:35,760
Yeah. Which like pretty bad. Like I

1065
01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:40,159
don't know what a game over AMD would look like. Whether it's selling all the

1066
01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:44,719
patents or whether it's acquisition or like who knows something terrible, but

1067
01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:49,199
it was looking like just terrible, terrible things were going to happen. So

1068
01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:52,480
that's really exciting. Um I'm going to jump back a little bit just to do the

1069
01:15:50,719 --> 01:15:57,760
folding team call out. So our current rank worldwide is uh 212, which is

1070
01:15:55,760 --> 01:16:02,239
insane. We have fist bump to everyone who's a member of the folding team. You

1071
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:09,440
guys, we have 499 users, which is insane. And for for all time uh or okay

1072
01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:16,159
for all folding teams currently. Yeah. We have we're placed 15th for active

1073
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:17,920
folders. Wow. Which is nuts.

1074
01:16:16,159 --> 01:16:21,120
That's crazy. There's a lot actually insane. There's a lot of folding teams

1075
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:26,800
that have been around a lot longer than us. So to so to be ranked 15th for

1076
01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:29,120
active folders is just actually insane.

1077
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:33,600
So that's very cool. Good job everyone. I think I had left another uh I think I

1078
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:38,719
had left another question for the Twitter folks. Do you remember what it was? Okay. Console players apparently

1079
01:16:37,199 --> 01:16:43,280
don't want to build PCs. Well, we should educate them. 4 p.m. time slot sucks for

1080
01:16:41,199 --> 01:16:47,120
guys in our time zone, ironically. But sorry, guys. We got to do what we got to

1081
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:52,800
do. Apparently, we're number 41 in Canada. I think you said 42. Well, that

1082
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:55,120
Yeah, that was from uh a while ago. A

1083
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:58,880
quarterly pimp my rig for forum members. Um, you know what I would like to do is

1084
01:16:56,719 --> 01:17:02,000
I'd like to do more like uh more giveaways at some point, but we got to

1085
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:07,280
figure out the logistics because there's a lot of laws involved that we've just kind of ignored. But Lionus Media

1086
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:12,800
Groups, an actual company now, not just some dude with a YouTube channel. So, we

1087
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:16,719
have to be we have to be careful. The last thing I want is to run across

1088
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:21,280
Canadian gaming laws, which would shut down my company like that. If they're

1089
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:25,040
like, "Oh, you're running a lottery, therefore you are this, this, this,

1090
01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:28,960
this, and this." that could take everything. Yeah. Um, so I got to be

1091
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:33,199
careful, guys. There's And there's more to it than just Lionus doesn't want to

1092
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:37,440
give things away. Just to be clear. Yeah. Uh, okay. So, according to what

1093
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:41,120
was the something I'd watch the live stream, but I'm out skiing. Try and get

1094
01:17:39,199 --> 01:17:45,120
them to send you a free 4K TV. Oh, yeah. I asked them if they wanted us to do

1095
01:17:42,679 --> 01:17:49,760
deals. Uh, I joined the forums just because you said so. Yes. Thank you.

1096
01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:54,080
Just because we said so. He joined the forums and joined Twitter just to say

1097
01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:57,760
this. Thank you guys. I mean, it drives me crazy when people are like, "I know

1098
01:17:55,840 --> 01:18:02,480
it says on your Facebook not to send you messages here, but I don't have Twitter,

1099
01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:06,480
so I sent you this message." It's like, "Twitter's free. You don't have to do

1100
01:18:05,199 --> 01:18:13,040
anything other than just send me a message on it. Like, I'm not asking you to marry it. It's just that I can't

1101
01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:16,640
handle monitoring my private messages and my emails and my Facebook and my

1102
01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:23,159
Twitter and actually making videos, which is priority number one is actually

1103
01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:25,679
making videos, not talking about videos.

1104
01:18:23,159 --> 01:18:29,840
Um, look in the meme topic. More EA stuff on the N page. Okay, there we go.

1105
01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:34,000
Okay. Apparently, apparently Twitter really didn't have much to say about

1106
01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:37,600
that. So, there you go. It's going to be hard to offer deals that satisfy all

1107
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:40,800
territories. That's true. Although sites like Amazon might be an exception where

1108
01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:45,520
a lot of territories will be able to get a benefit. Um, Slick's Blackberry Z10

1109
01:18:44,159 --> 01:18:50,800
thing will be coming up either tonight or tomorrow. So, guys, stay tuned. And

1110
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:54,560
apparently Logan's been doing something similar with games on deals. Cool. Um,

1111
01:18:53,199 --> 01:18:59,600
do you want to handle our rigs of the week? Uh, I actually haven't looked at

1112
01:18:56,880 --> 01:19:03,120
these enough, but this will be kind of I was working with this curious. Then I'm

1113
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:05,840
I'm I'm up then. I'll do uh I'll do this. Well, we should do rigs of the

1114
01:19:04,480 --> 01:19:12,640
week. Yeah. Yeah. But I can do this to solve for some time for you. Oh, okay. Okay. So, check this out, guys.

1115
01:19:09,480 --> 01:19:15,360
Apparently, and this was posted by Mr. X

1116
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:21,280
on the forums. Thank you, Mr. X. Uh, there's a big Intel logo at the top. PC

1117
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:22,800
enthusiast, top PC, top PC, I guess, but

1118
01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:27,040
the capitalization's a little funny. With koulaler.com, these guys leak

1119
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:33,679
everything because they get access to all the good stuff. Has apparently

1120
01:19:29,440 --> 01:19:36,800
leaked um a Core i7 Ivy Bridge E. So,

1121
01:19:33,679 --> 01:19:38,719
this is a multicore, more than four core

1122
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:43,760
ivy bridgebased chip that'll be coming around coming at some point based on

1123
01:19:41,199 --> 01:19:48,040
that. There's already benchmarks. Um couldn't be that far off. And so this is

1124
01:19:46,719 --> 01:19:55,199
a 4960X and this will be replacing the

1125
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:58,159
3970X I guess at that $1,000 price point

1126
01:19:55,199 --> 01:20:02,480
on the enthusiast X79 platform. So remember guys, X79 is not going away.

1127
01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:09,040
It's still going to be the enthusiast grade platform with support for dual 16x

1128
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:12,320
PCI Express lanes, uh more RAM, uh more

1129
01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:16,239
cores, all that stuff is not going away.

1130
01:20:12,320 --> 01:20:18,920
So pretty much the summary is it's 10%

1131
01:20:16,239 --> 01:20:27,679
faster than the Sandy Bridge ebased chips which is if we sort

1132
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:30,760
of know anything about CPUs and sort of

1133
01:20:27,679 --> 01:20:33,920
anything then we probably saw this one

1134
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:36,400
coming. So there you have it. Ivy Bridge

1135
01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:40,560
E just like Ivy Bridge was compared to Sandy Bridge is about 10% better. You

1136
01:20:38,719 --> 01:20:45,679
can see the overclock that they've got going on. So, it's a 3.5 gigahertz

1137
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:50,560
overclock on what appears to be Let's see how many physical cores we got

1138
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:56,320
here. I don't even Yeah. So, there you go. Six cores, 12 threads, 3.3 GHz stock

1139
01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:59,360
frequency. Uh, Linus Tech Tips takes no responsibility. You got their watermark

1140
01:20:57,920 --> 01:21:04,159
all over it. We did not run these numbers. We don't have an IV bridge e.

1141
01:21:02,239 --> 01:21:10,719
Apparently, there's going to be an X79A GD45 plus board that'll support uh looks

1142
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:13,679
like the chipset is picking up as Sandy

1143
01:21:10,719 --> 01:21:18,000
Bridge E South Bridge X79. So, a lot of this data may not be correct, but there

1144
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:22,400
you have it. Um it's coming at some point, guys. So, that was pretty cool

1145
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:25,840
that I picked up on the on the forum. Big thanks for posting that on the

1146
01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:32,640
forum. Here's another Linus Tech Tips forum news topic. This one was posted by

1147
01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:36,640
Josie. Josie Josie as well. So LG is

1148
01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:41,000
launching the world's first 55 in curved

1149
01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:46,239
OLED HD TV. So this isn't going to be

1150
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:50,159
4K. This is an HD TV. It is 4.3 mm

1151
01:21:46,239 --> 01:21:51,760
thick. So guys, if you look at uh Yeah,

1152
01:21:50,159 --> 01:21:59,639
here I'm just going to zoom in on this so you guys can get a better look at it.

1153
01:21:53,679 --> 01:21:59,639
But that thinness, holy crap.

1154
01:21:59,679 --> 01:22:05,840
OLED emits its own light. So what you guys got to remember is you don't have

1155
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:10,000
to build a backlight array that goes behind the panel anymore. So the light

1156
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:14,080
emitting is done by the by the panel itself. In fact, we did a demo at CES

1157
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:18,400
where I was standing in front of a TV that was sideways and then we shifted

1158
01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:22,560
the angle so you could actually see see the TV because you could hardly even see

1159
01:22:20,159 --> 01:22:29,040
it in the shot. So this isn't going to be cheap. I think the initial quote is

1160
01:22:25,199 --> 01:22:32,280
something like 13 grand, 13,500 and

1161
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:35,120
it'll be available at 1,400 retail

1162
01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:40,239
locations. Um, pre-orders are apparently started already. So, the curvature gives

1163
01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:44,800
you more of that IMAX experience and the fact that all of the screen is equal

1164
01:22:42,480 --> 01:22:49,199
distance away from your eyes in theory should make for a more natural viewing

1165
01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:52,880
experience. However, it remains to be seen if content that was developed with

1166
01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:57,600
the intention of being watched on a flat screen is actually going to even benefit

1167
01:22:55,199 --> 01:23:02,400
from a curved screen. Hey, B-roll, what's your take on the whole curved

1168
01:22:59,199 --> 01:23:04,880
screen thing? I think it's really

1169
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:08,960
stupid. Well, I understand like it can help viewing angle. Okay, so better for

1170
01:23:07,199 --> 01:23:13,120
viewing angle. Mind you, OLED doesn't really have that problem. Yeah, it doesn't have that problem. B-roll the

1171
01:23:11,679 --> 01:23:18,320
intern's actually over there. He's been editing videos the whole time we've been doing this. I don't know. Oh, it seems

1172
01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:22,840
like a gimmick to me. I don't I haven't I don't know. I don't know enough about it to see the full benefit, but it's a

1173
01:23:21,440 --> 01:23:28,960
wait until you see it at least. So, it's a wait and see from B-roll. He's kind of

1174
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:31,199
our when it comes to camera gear and h

1175
01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:35,480
high definition content gear and all that stuff. He's he's our resident

1176
01:23:32,719 --> 01:23:41,600
expert, whereas Diesel the Intern is our post-processing wizard. Um, not to take

1177
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:43,679
anything away from Mr. Wizard, but uh uh

1178
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:47,440
yeah, Diesel the Intern is kind of Dr. wizard when it comes to kind of some of

1179
01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:51,600
the stuff he does with video is amazing. So, they can they can both be just

1180
01:23:49,199 --> 01:23:54,320
wizards as far as I'm concerned. Uh there's one more thing I wanted to talk

1181
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:58,800
about very briefly just because I think it's hilarious. This was also posted by

1182
01:23:56,239 --> 01:24:02,400
Josie. However, once again, Josie, this is kind of directed at you, man. Make

1183
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:06,239
sure you're posting some of your own original stuff in these threads because

1184
01:24:04,480 --> 01:24:13,520
otherwise we become one of those one of those buttthead sites. So, um

1185
01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:19,520
this is kind of weird. This is the buddy cup, which allows you to add friends to

1186
01:24:16,880 --> 01:24:23,840
Facebook by bumping glass with them. Glasses with them. So, this isn't the

1187
01:24:21,679 --> 01:24:28,719
kind of thing that anyone really expects you to buy, I don't think. Uh, the

1188
01:24:26,719 --> 01:24:32,159
original link was from N Gadget, just so you guys know. So, we're quoting a

1189
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:36,480
source. Uh, oh yeah, and the original link for the LG Curve TVs was also

1190
01:24:34,159 --> 01:24:42,159
gadget. Um, so this is the kind of thing that they'd expect to be more like at an

1191
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:46,320
event where you meet people, whether it's at a concert or whether it's at, I

1192
01:24:44,639 --> 01:24:49,360
don't know, a hockey game or something like that where you meet someone and you

1193
01:24:48,159 --> 01:24:53,920
kind of go, "Yeah, let's friend each other on Facebook." Boom. I mean, does

1194
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:59,199
this just make the Facebook friend process that much more meaningless? Yep.

1195
01:24:56,800 --> 01:25:02,480
I don't like it at all. I don't know. But you don't use Facebook. No. So,

1196
01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:06,840
you're all you already don't like it before I even talk about a glass. I

1197
01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:10,960
guess that makes it not fair. Um I don't know. I kind of see its use

1198
01:25:09,360 --> 01:25:16,239
in some situations, but I also see it being abused by like that guy that you

1199
01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:19,679
don't actually even like buddy me. Yeah. Yeah. Or like walk up to your glass and

1200
01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:23,440
they're like just like hit it. And it's like, well, okay. I don't want that to

1201
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:26,480
happen. I don't want to like put my cup down while I'm talking to someone and

1202
01:25:24,719 --> 01:25:31,440
have 10 people come by and like rub their cups against you.

1203
01:25:29,440 --> 01:25:34,719
I don't know. But then I could also see the application where if you're just out

1204
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:38,880
hanging out and you genuinely meet someone that's pretty cool, it's really

1205
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:45,280
easy to just be like, "Gabon." But then if you have smartphones with NFC,

1206
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:49,440
go. I don't know. I don't I don't really see the awesome appeal. It's kind of

1207
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:52,239
cool. I mean, it's it's like it's kind of it's interesting. It's one of those

1208
01:25:50,880 --> 01:25:58,239
like, oh, cool application of technology. I didn't think of it. And like if you went to a some event and

1209
01:25:56,639 --> 01:26:02,080
they had it there, it would probably be really cool as a novelty as a novelty

1210
01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:06,000
thing or whatever. So like I'm not actually against it. I just I personally

1211
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:10,400
wouldn't be too into it. But then again, okay, don't have Facebook. So um so back

1212
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:13,440
to Google Glass, I personally based on the battery life, I think they were

1213
01:26:11,679 --> 01:26:17,280
saying something like what was it 30 minutes uh when you're recording video

1214
01:26:15,440 --> 01:26:21,280
or something ludicrous like that. I don't remember the exact number, but the

1215
01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:27,280
battery life's not there. Um, I'm personally not even remotely excited

1216
01:26:23,199 --> 01:26:29,920
about it yet, but Gen 3 or Gen 5 or Gen

1217
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:34,960
10 of this technology is going to be just incredible. And I'll jump on the

1218
01:26:32,719 --> 01:26:38,800
bandwagon when instead of $1,500, I can buy it for 150 bucks and I don't have to

1219
01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:43,120
be some special dude with an invite and the functionality will be dramatically

1220
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:47,360
better by then. Um, I also had a one news item was that Google's saying

1221
01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:50,000
people are apparently hackering the uh the Google Glass and they want to do

1222
01:26:49,120 --> 01:26:56,400
whatever they want, but they're saying, "No, no, no. We meant to do that." Which like I don't know how credible that is,

1223
01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:59,600
but yes, but from some people I could see them being like, "Oh, no, no, we

1224
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:03,840
meant to do that." From Google though, Google usually leaves things unlocked.

1225
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:07,920
Okay, true. That's that's my view of that is they often do. Um, now people

1226
01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:12,560
are also talking about how apparently there might be like remote shut off and

1227
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:16,880
a whole bunch of other weird stuff. I don't know how true this is, so don't

1228
01:27:14,239 --> 01:27:21,440
take this um directly, but apparently Google has like quite a bit of control

1229
01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:23,360
over it still. So removing that might be

1230
01:27:21,440 --> 01:27:27,719
interesting if that's even real. I don't know. I read that on the comments of a

1231
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:33,440
thread. This is an article from SourceFed, which is um Oh. Oh, hold on.

1232
01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:38,800
I opened it on the wrong thing. I know. I know. We're going to we're going to go a little bit over time today. Uh so

1233
01:27:37,199 --> 01:27:42,880
we'll we'll do this and then we'll be doing our uh our rigs of the week. Oh

1234
01:27:41,440 --> 01:27:47,120
yeah, this was cool. So this was interesting. Speaking of Google and sort

1235
01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:54,560
of all that stuff, this was on source fed. It's who has your back with respect

1236
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:56,400
to your privacy. So let's scroll down to

1237
01:27:54,560 --> 01:28:02,560
basically just the chart. Yep. Who has your back? Um so the requirements are

1238
01:27:59,840 --> 01:28:06,280
requires a warrant for content to share. tells users about government data

1239
01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:10,719
requests, publishes transparency reports, publishes law enforcement

1240
01:28:08,639 --> 01:28:15,040
guidelines, fights for users privacy in courts, and fights for users privacy in

1241
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:18,719
Congress. So there you go. Amazon only got two stars out of six. And you guys,

1242
01:28:16,800 --> 01:28:22,480
okay, I'm not saying that this chart is the be all and end all by any stretch of

1243
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:27,440
the imagination. This is SourceFed's chart and there you go. But as a general

1244
01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:31,840
guideline, it's kind of cool to look at and it makes you really think about the

1245
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:36,960
the topic if nothing else. Apple fights for users privacy rights in Congress.

1246
01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:40,000
That's it. AT&T, very low rating.

1247
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:42,480
Comcast, very low rating. Dropbox, look

1248
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:46,000
at that. Huge. So other than fighting for users privacy rights in courts,

1249
01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:52,080
they're requiring warrants. They're doing all the things by the book. Facebook only got three stars. So no

1250
01:28:50,320 --> 01:28:56,400
transparency reports. They don't tell you about a government data request. Uh

1251
01:28:54,320 --> 01:29:00,639
Forsquare is a touch better than that. Google scores very well. So, this is

1252
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:04,480
where where I was going with that. LinkedIn, very well. The only thing they

1253
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:09,280
don't do is fight for it in court, much like Dropbox. Microsoft, not bad.

1254
01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:13,280
Somewhere in the middle ground here. So, the things that they don't do is fight

1255
01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:18,239
in court and tell users about government data requests. MySpace. It's like if you

1256
01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:22,719
needed a reason to not be on MySpace anymore. There you go. So, there's the

1257
01:29:20,080 --> 01:29:29,120
rest of them. Twitter is across the board. Sonic.net across the board. Um,

1258
01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:32,639
Verizon. Yeah, not looking too good. Yahoo not looking too good. So, I just

1259
01:29:31,199 --> 01:29:38,159
thought this was a really cool article. I wanted to make sure you guys see it. Head over to SourceFed, check it out.

1260
01:29:36,239 --> 01:29:42,239
And let's do rigs of the week, shall we? All right. Okay. First one. Again, not

1261
01:29:40,639 --> 01:29:46,000
super wellversed because these are kind of huge, but jump into the first one

1262
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:52,320
real quick. Now, this one has So, this is from PZT, who's a junior member on

1263
01:29:48,719 --> 01:29:53,920
the forum. This guy has 10 billion

1264
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:57,840
pictures. Okay. So, we're probably going to have to rip through a little bit, but

1265
01:29:55,760 --> 01:30:01,440
as we kind of fly through here, you can just see lots of cool stuff. The

1266
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:08,320
magnitude of awesome stuff that he has, which is everything. What are those? Monsoon compressions. Very nice. Yeah.

1267
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:13,920
Beautiful. Yeah, they're awesome. On an Apple GHD white. Very nice. Very nice.

1268
01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:15,440
Swiftech dual DDC block or pump top.

1269
01:30:13,920 --> 01:30:21,199
Yeah. NZXT switch again. Uh, yeah, I think

1270
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:26,239
so. I just saw the bottom of it there. Yeah.

1271
01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:28,080
GED wings. Nice choice.

1272
01:30:26,239 --> 01:30:32,400
Coolance quick connects. You'll see what those are for soon. Okay, we're gonna

1273
01:30:30,960 --> 01:30:35,800
have to just blow through. There is actually a ton of pictures like fly

1274
01:30:34,480 --> 01:30:39,360
through it quite a bit. And then when you start seeing

1275
01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:42,880
certain things Gigabyte board. Here we go. As he's just starting. There's a

1276
01:30:41,199 --> 01:30:45,840
test fit. Ah, very nice. He's putting quick

1277
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:51,199
connects on all the components so that you can easily upgrade

1278
01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:53,920
things. Very nice. Very nice. makes

1279
01:30:51,199 --> 01:30:58,400
maintenance a lot less work. Wait for it. It gets super awesome all

1280
01:30:56,639 --> 01:31:01,920
of a sudden. There we go. So that's It changes quite a bit from there. So just

1281
01:30:59,920 --> 01:31:06,239
keep going. Okay. Crazy finger at the front. Okay. Okay.

1282
01:31:04,239 --> 01:31:11,120
It changes like we're like not even that far through it. Um Dominator Platinums.

1283
01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:16,239
Oh, here. Here. Go up a little bit. Whoa. Here we go. Yeah. So what's going

1284
01:31:14,159 --> 01:31:19,920
on now? Okay. There you go. So he's making his own basement. Okay. And

1285
01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:24,639
running quick connects through there. So go down a little bit. So he that shows

1286
01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:30,159
him making his basement. Yep. So that's awesome. He does a very very good job.

1287
01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:34,800
Very clean. Yep. And it looks fantastic. Like it looks so good. He takes that

1288
01:31:32,719 --> 01:31:39,199
theme and he carries it forward. Look at that keyboard. Yeah. What key caps are

1289
01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:43,120
those? Uh that's actually just uh light coming. Oh, that's light. Okay. Okay.

1290
01:31:41,120 --> 01:31:49,840
Yeah. Nice blank keyboard though. Very beautiful. Yeah. Ooh. Tons of sleeving

1291
01:31:47,199 --> 01:31:54,320
schmexy is awesome. Going with the white and green theme. Pathogen the name going

1292
01:31:52,080 --> 01:32:01,199
with white and green, right? So pretty freaking sweet. IKEA desk.

1293
01:31:57,920 --> 01:32:03,360
So like look at that. Absolutely

1294
01:32:01,199 --> 01:32:07,520
beautiful. Look at the back plate on the video card. I was waiting to see when

1295
01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:14,880
you're going to notice it. Nice touch. Like just beautiful build. Gorgeous

1296
01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:16,880
gaming rig. White LEDs down there. And

1297
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:20,560
he picked like the perfect fans for it. Yep. The gelled wings look fantastic in

1298
01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:25,360
there. Great motherboard for it. It even has the skull

1299
01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:32,080
because it's called Pathogen. Like it just amazing build. Great coolant. Sorry

1300
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:35,280
about my voice, guys. All right. So,

1301
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:36,800
yeah, just awesome. Very, very, very

1302
01:32:35,280 --> 01:32:41,280
cool. All right. So, we got our second one here before we wrap up and move to

1303
01:32:38,639 --> 01:32:46,719
the afterparty, which is going to be a Super Mario live stream if possible.

1304
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:49,280
Okay, we can get it working. So, jump down on this one, too. I think you might

1305
01:32:48,239 --> 01:32:53,920
have to be logged in to see these pictures. Yeah, if you log in, it will show them actively or you can click on

1306
01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:58,280
them eventually. All right, so let's log in as myself.

1307
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:04,480
Thanks to everyone who tuned into the live stream this week, by the way, guys,

1308
01:33:01,920 --> 01:33:11,719
if we don't get stick, I hate this keyboard.

1309
01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:11,719
It's very handy, but it's also like

1310
01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:18,800
um hold on. I don't remember how far I

1311
01:33:16,639 --> 01:33:23,120
was into my password. Guess we'll find out. Nope, that wasn't it. Um just in

1312
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:28,960
case you guys don't know, he's trying to log in. That's why we're not showing the

1313
01:33:24,639 --> 01:33:31,679
screen right now. Are we not? Oh.

1314
01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:35,239
Oh, are you typing numbers? Yeah, it's okay though. It doesn't do that anymore.

1315
01:33:33,040 --> 01:33:41,120
There we go. Okay. I think I think my mod they didn't see the first log of

1316
01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:49,760
what? What? They didn't see the first build that wasn't over there. Really? At

1317
01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:51,360
all. Oh, no. Oh, oops. No. My bad. No.

1318
01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:55,880
Okay. Well, let's go really quickly then. We got to show his build. Oh,

1319
01:33:54,000 --> 01:34:01,760
that's so good. Okay. So, sorry. PZT. I can't believe we did that.

1320
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:06,480
I wonder how many tweets we have about that. Anyways, a few at least. Oh, come

1321
01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:09,679
on. It's not staying on there for me. Okay, so here's where we get Where do we

1322
01:34:08,400 --> 01:34:15,280
get outside where he's cutting the mid plate? Okay, we missed that part. Don't worry about it.

1323
01:34:13,040 --> 01:34:18,800
Did we? Yeah. Anyway, you can go check it out on the forum, guys. That's always

1324
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:24,000
an option if we screw things up. I'll tweet out a link for it. Yeah, Dominator

1325
01:34:22,120 --> 01:34:30,159
Platinums. Here we go. Yeah, there we go. There's the mid plate cutting holes.

1326
01:34:27,440 --> 01:34:33,760
Okay, let's keep on going. Very clean. Beautiful peripherals. That explains why

1327
01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:39,239
like a hundred people tuned out of the live stream while we were doing this because I thought it was a cool build.

1328
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:44,639
Uh sleing. Great looking great looking IKEA

1329
01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:49,679
desk there. Nice themed build. There we go. Beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. The

1330
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:53,440
back plate's amazing. Back plate on the video card. Mentioned this before. I

1331
01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:58,639
apologize for the part where I mentioned it and you couldn't actually look at it.

1332
01:34:55,440 --> 01:35:00,320
Uh just oh just sexy sleeving matching

1333
01:34:58,639 --> 01:35:04,960
motherboard matching the gelled wing fans look fantastic in there. Uh all

1334
01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:08,880
these little shots of the inside just look outstanding. I mean look at the

1335
01:35:06,719 --> 01:35:13,040
shininess of this. That's so awesome. White LEDs using the built-in uh

1336
01:35:11,120 --> 01:35:20,159
lighting the Switch 810 which is a really nice thing to have. And there we

1337
01:35:16,159 --> 01:35:22,320
go. Now on to the second build bog.

1338
01:35:20,159 --> 01:35:26,159
There we are. All right. So, start scrolling down. I'm

1339
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:32,080
going to tweet out that link for the build log. Another switch. Yeah, there

1340
01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:36,000
you go. But very different builds. Like very different build. Why hello there.

1341
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:39,440
T- virus in the back which is just absolutely awesome. T- virus is amazing.

1342
01:35:37,679 --> 01:35:43,920
Everyone should have a T- virus. And like the position is very cool. And when

1343
01:35:41,440 --> 01:35:47,520
you see his desk set up, it even makes a lot more sense as to why he put it where

1344
01:35:45,679 --> 01:35:51,199
it is. So this build is very attainable. I mean, this is something where no

1345
01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:55,679
custom fabrication's been done, you know, MCP655 pump, you know, nice nice

1346
01:35:54,239 --> 01:36:01,440
water cooling and all that, but this is doable. Yeah, nice pictures. Yeah, they

1347
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:05,120
got better here. Yeah, they they get better pretty quick. Kingston HyperX

1348
01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:08,880
memory looks good. Looking good. Saber-tooth boards make for such a clean

1349
01:36:07,360 --> 01:36:12,560
looking build. They just look so awesome.

1350
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:17,199
Yeah, I've seen the upcoming Saber-Tooth. Yeah. Yeah. Can't say

1351
01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:19,960
anything about it, though. All right, some more night shots.

1352
01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:24,080
Looking good. Okay, I'm letting you do

1353
01:36:22,239 --> 01:36:27,600
commentary on these. So, I'm sorry. I was tweeting out that thing. Yeah, here.

1354
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:31,600
Here you can see his desk there. You're at his desk. You can see the T- virus.

1355
01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:35,199
Yeah. Instead of it being covered up by the side panel because the window is

1356
01:36:33,040 --> 01:36:39,600
honestly not that big. No, it's not small on the Switch 810. Yeah. So, by

1357
01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:43,120
putting it in the back, he can actually see his T- virus all the time. So,

1358
01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:46,080
that's very cool because most people will go, "Oh, just to the right of the

1359
01:36:44,639 --> 01:36:52,080
motherboard. Bam. There's my reservoir. That's where mine is. That's That's where mine is. But I can see mine. Yeah.

1360
01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:55,360
And I can see mine, too. A big window. But just because of how he has his desk

1361
01:36:53,760 --> 01:37:01,040
set up with his computer kind of hanging off the edge, which is kind of sketchy, but um where he's sitting, he can

1362
01:36:59,440 --> 01:37:06,480
actually see his T- virus, which is which is very cool and very understandable. So, that's a like

1363
01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:10,880
awesome obtainable level build. The one before that was more like the ridiculous

1364
01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:15,520
the ridiculously awesome level. Not quite as obtainable. Okay, guys. Thank

1365
01:37:13,440 --> 01:37:20,639
you for tuning in to the Linus Tech Tips live stream, which we're gonna rename at

1366
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:22,000
some point. Um, to something else, to

1367
01:37:20,639 --> 01:37:26,560
something that makes sense. Yeah, something that like maybe we should ask for suggestions on the forum. We can ask

1368
01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:30,159
for suggestions, but odds are we probably won't take any of them cuz, you

1369
01:37:28,880 --> 01:37:34,320
know, it's just a matter of, you know, you want to come up with a brand identity that's really you. That's true.

1370
01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:38,639
But, I mean, you guys are welcome to send uh suggestions via uh via Twitter

1371
01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:43,600
or whatever else. I'll probably see them if nothing else. Yeah. So, um,

1372
01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:47,280
apparently I'm officially fired by the viewers.

1373
01:37:45,280 --> 01:37:52,800
All right, then. We both got fired today. Yeah. Okay.

1374
01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:57,840
Yeah, we we both got hardcore fired. All right, guys. So, don't forget, join the

1375
01:37:55,520 --> 01:38:00,800
Linus Tech Tips forum. It's kind of awesome. We're actually going to be

1376
01:37:59,199 --> 01:38:06,960
doing something soon where we're going to release a video on the YouTube channel where we challenge you to make

1377
01:38:04,480 --> 01:38:10,960
the Linus Tech Tips forum your homepage. Whether it's the news uh the news

1378
01:38:09,119 --> 01:38:16,159
section or whether it's just the home screen or the latest latest topic

1379
01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:20,159
section, we are going to be working hard to make this an absolutely awesome

1380
01:38:18,639 --> 01:38:23,920
community. We have some plans to make the transition transition to home screen

1381
01:38:22,239 --> 01:38:27,040
seamless. Yeah. So, we're working on that. Yep. So, we're working on that. I

1382
01:38:25,440 --> 01:38:31,280
I mean, honestly, if you have anything you want to talk about techwise, it's

1383
01:38:29,280 --> 01:38:35,840
one of the most active forums I have ever seen. Everyone gets a reply. And a

1384
01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:40,159
comment we consistently get and something we try to consistently uphold

1385
01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:43,520
is that people are friendly. Yeah. So even if you're worried that it might be

1386
01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:48,400
a stupid question, just ask. You'll probably get a good answer. I had someone PM me. I This was a stupid

1387
01:38:46,880 --> 01:38:53,280
question. I didn't want to ask it. So I I sent it to you in PM and then he asked

1388
01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:56,960
it and it was fine. Yeah. Yep. No one worry about it. No one will pile on you

1389
01:38:54,880 --> 01:39:00,400
and if they do, report it. We'll get it taken care of. The moderation team is

1390
01:38:58,639 --> 01:39:03,119
absolutely amazing. Good night everyone and we'll be back. You know, it'll

1391
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:08,840
probably take us a little while to get this set up, but we'll be back with some Super Mario World. Thanks for watching.
