00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.800
Many people claim to be gaming on a potato, but very few have the spuds

00:00:06.319 --> 00:00:13.840
to actually do it. And I know what you guys are thinking, Lionus. It's easy.

00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:20.400
You just mash a little bitty raspberry pie into a

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:22.720
boom, it's done. But come on, that's

00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:27.920
small fries. We want the full starch experience, friends. I'm talking a full

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:33.200
Windows PC in one of these. And since it's a plant, well, it's going to need

00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:34.640
to be watered, which Oh god, we're

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:38.079
liquid cooling it. That's just the beginning. When we're

00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:42.239
done, this potato is going to play Bother's Gate 3, Cyberpunk, Halo

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:48.559
Infinite, and sponsor Segway Simulator 2000. Oh, I love that game almost as much as I

00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:52.640
love Thorum. Their rings and watches are made from unique materials like Gibian

00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:57.600
meteorite and ethical naturally shed antlers. Check them out at the link

00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:59.440
below and use code LTT for 20% off. Our

00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:05.760
biggest problem for this project, ironically, is that potatoes are very

00:01:02.480 --> 00:01:08.479
small. So, initially we set out to find

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:13.520
bigger potatoes. But in spite of some promising leads, finding one big enough

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:18.960
to fit a full fat gaming system was a fruitless endeavor. Get it? Even our

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:23.040
hand selected Super Spuds are much smaller than a standard MiniITX

00:01:20.720 --> 00:01:31.520
motherboard. So, we turned our attention to finding a smaller computer, and that

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:34.479
we did. Meet the Minis Forum EM680.

00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:42.000
It's got eight Zen 3 Plus cores that turbo up to 4.7 GHz and Radeon 680M

00:01:38.479 --> 00:01:44.159
RDNA3 graphics. It's shockingly powerful

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.759
for such a small package. The whole package is just 10 Pringles tall. We're

00:01:46.720 --> 00:01:53.119
going to have a link below if you want to pick up one of your own. Of course, even at that size, it's not small enough

00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:58.159
for us. So, we'll be taking it apart with this prototype LT precision

00:01:56.479 --> 00:02:03.600
screwdriver, complete with bit storage and hybrid ceramic bearing top. Yes.

00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:09.119
Yes, we will. Sign up for a notification at ltstore.com.

00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:10.479
Got to love that nice strong magnet. I

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:14.879
couldn't believe how small this computer was. Originally, we had another minis

00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:19.599
forum that is about 14 cm uh both directions. And that was small to me.

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:22.080
But uh when we got this one in, I was blown away. I didn't know computers came

00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:26.959
this small. This is tiny. So small.

00:02:24.720 --> 00:02:29.920
Actually, the power of a gaming PC in the palm of my hand.

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:35.680
Now I've got the power of this cooling solution in the palm of my hand here.

00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:38.000
Okay, pop that out. Oh, liquid metal on

00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:42.319
the stock cooling solution. After the issues we had with it on custom builds,

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:46.000
I just never thought this stuff would go mainstream. But with the right

00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:49.040
protective measures like these covers for the surface mount components and

00:02:47.440 --> 00:02:53.280
these gaskets, it seems like manufacturers can make it work. Even big

00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:56.560
ones like ASUS and Sony, it really does help you get the most out of a small

00:02:54.720 --> 00:03:03.319
cooling solution. Of course, we apparently will not be using this one

00:02:58.640 --> 00:03:03.319
because we like playing on hard mode.

00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:10.720
Hey, there we go. Oh, cool. They've got

00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:14.080
a main board up here and then they've got a daughterboard down here that's

00:03:12.239 --> 00:03:18.560
handling all of the IO, including the micro SD slot. IO is um going to be a

00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:24.560
challenge, huh? USB 4 is truly incredible. We actually only really need two USB 4s to go in.

00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:27.280
One for power and one that's going to go to a dongle for everything else.

00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:31.840
Now that we've got the whole thing apart, I can show you how the two boards

00:03:29.519 --> 00:03:39.920
go back together. There we go. And that's it. CPU, 32 gigs LPDDR5 memory, a

00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:44.239
terabyte of PCIe Gen 4 storage, and even USB 4. So, we could hook up an external

00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:49.200
GPU to this thing if we really wanted to. We don't want to, though, because we

00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:54.159
want it all to fit in here. So, without further ado, let's throw this little guy

00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:59.200
into the frying pan. Figuratively, of course. Unless

00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:02.640
Now that we found a computer small enough, we need to select our potato.

00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:06.799
Oh, any one of these is fine. Any of these should do. I think there's

00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:08.560
some that are better than this one. She's soft, though.

00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:14.720
Uh, how long have we had these potatoes? About a month. They're a little old.

00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:19.919
How about this guy? That's pretty That's a pretty good size. It's got a nice regal shape to him.

00:04:17.440 --> 00:04:24.000
The It kind of looks like you. Uh, never thought I'd be asking this,

00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:28.160
but what's our plan for potato carving? My original plan was to slice the potato

00:04:26.479 --> 00:04:32.160
in half and then just scoop it out with an ice cream scoop. Oh yeah, that's what I did in all exactly all my

00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:35.160
all my testing. Okay,

00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:41.600
David's getting a cutting board right now, but the way I see it, it's not necessary. Not for a fruit ninja like

00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:46.000
me. Damn, I actually kind of nailed that. This cutting board is much fancier than

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:51.120
I expected. Oh wow, cool swag, Corsair. Anyway, uh

00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:54.320
which way do you find it's best? Um there's no method to this madness.

00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:58.639
It's just madness. You'll want to be careful when you get close to the edges. Sometimes it can kind of just jump and

00:04:57.280 --> 00:05:02.720
then rip some skin off. But I see of the potato or of my hand.

00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:09.280
Uh, yes. Who would have thought a potato has this much juice? Speaking of, now that we've

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:14.320
worked out size, our next problem is that potatoes are

00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:18.320
well food. Uh, you know, boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. However you

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:22.160
skin them, they're not an ideal environment for a computer or any

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:26.280
electronics for that matter. How are we looking horizontally? Uh,

00:05:27.840 --> 00:05:32.479
pretty good. Good news. Uh, reaching the IO is not

00:05:31.280 --> 00:05:36.720
going to be an issue. I'm up. Yeah, like the IO's going like right to

00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:41.280
the edge. Oh, wow. We chose kind of the perfect potato.

00:05:39.919 --> 00:05:45.759
I couldn't help noticing then that I'm hollowing this out too much. Maybe.

00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:48.800
Airflow, baby. Sure. For a water cooled system.

00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:52.720
Sure. Do we have a fan? Why would you need a

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:56.000
fan? You're water cooling. I keep getting potato juice in my eye.

00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:59.199
It's good for the skin. Sure, but is it good for your eyes?

00:05:57.840 --> 00:06:04.400
There's an eye of the potato. It's the eye of the potato. It's the

00:06:02.880 --> 00:06:10.160
keen eye among you might have noticed that we were just kind of willy-nilly

00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:14.080
putting this thing in here to mitigate some of the risk of the

00:06:12.479 --> 00:06:19.919
juice shorting out any of the components on our board. We gave it a a battering

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:24.000
like not this like French fries. uh a battering of conformal coating to

00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:28.800
protect it from dangerous potato juices. All while being careful to leave access

00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:30.319
to any ports or any contact pins that we

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:34.960
need for the system to function. Of course, that wasn't the original plan,

00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:38.800
was it? No. The original plan was to preserve

00:06:36.880 --> 00:06:44.639
the perfect potato for the shoot. I tried dehydrating, baking, freezing, a

00:06:41.840 --> 00:06:47.840
vacuum chamber, resin, a resin vacuum chamber, but nothing really worked. No

00:06:46.400 --> 00:06:51.039
matter what I did, it would rot, collapse, or just look disgusting.

00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:56.639
I see that. Uh, so instead, we decided we're just going to yolo it, do it all on set for

00:06:54.560 --> 00:07:01.280
better or for worse. Uh, you're welcome. Yeah, I'd say that's for better. Is this

00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:04.919
even safe? Let alone food safe. I wouldn't take a bite.

00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:13.199
Anywh who, another part of the original plan was to transplant the entire

00:07:11.440 --> 00:07:18.080
cooling system from the minis form just to make our jobs a little bit easier.

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:22.160
But that's dead, too, huh? Yeah. It turns out problem number three.

00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:25.520
Potatoes aren't very good for cooling. In fact, they're kind of good at

00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:29.520
insulating. So, we had Justin, our resident mad scientist, fabricate this

00:07:27.599 --> 00:07:32.160
absolutely gorgeous water block. You did an amazing job.

00:07:30.960 --> 00:07:38.000
So good. Even like the design on the top. I don't know if that was intentional, but it looks really good.

00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:42.800
The cold plate is machined from billet copper, and then the rest is resin 3D

00:07:40.479 --> 00:07:47.199
printed. Now, I'm told I'm not allowed to take it apart for you guys since the

00:07:44.479 --> 00:07:50.080
O-ring is kind of fragile, but we've got a render, and you guys can actually find

00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:55.840
the plans for this in the video description if you ever need to. This

00:07:53.840 --> 00:07:59.440
for some reason, uh, we ended up having to reinforce the

00:07:57.440 --> 00:08:03.680
seal with some CLA to prevent leakage, but the rest of the parts are recycled

00:08:01.039 --> 00:08:07.759
from our laptop water cooling adventure. Don't watch that video right now if you

00:08:05.039 --> 00:08:10.960
have a weak stomach though. Or if you want to witness history because if you

00:08:09.520 --> 00:08:18.160
want that, you're going to have to watch this video. Yeah. Okay. Moment of truth. The blocks on.

00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.879
It fits perfect. It actually does fit

00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:27.440
really, really well. All we've got to do is carve out some IO. You'll have to let

00:08:24.960 --> 00:08:32.880
us know in the comments. Is it game t or put gameo? Now, David, question for you.

00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:36.399
Do we need to get at any of the other IO or is this side enough?

00:08:34.719 --> 00:08:38.560
That's all we need. We can power it through this dongle. We can do up to 90

00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:43.120
watts. Okay. Through this. Let's give it a shot. First boot. That's

00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:48.000
my computer. It's Hey, don't mock my computer.

00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:51.040
No, I love it. From my research, I don't think anyone has actually built a gaming

00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:55.120
potato. No, I didn't manage to find one either. So,

00:08:53.920 --> 00:08:58.399
world's first baby, which is kind of shocking with how many

00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:01.279
times it's been me'd. Yep. I was expecting to find like a hundred different YouTube videos about

00:09:00.959 --> 00:09:05.279
it. And then there's basically homeless who's gonna just do it way better than

00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:09.760
this. You can't do better than this. Don't challenge him.

00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:16.160
No, no, no. You can plug it. You can plug it right into the dongle. Or I can plug it right into the potato.

00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:21.200
Okay. I have proper peripherals, but for this part, we'll use these

00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:22.560
proper peripherals. Oh god. How do we

00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:25.680
power it on? I guess there just So there's a light. There is a power

00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:29.360
switch. And there should be a light or there wasn't a case. Okay, there's a

00:09:27.680 --> 00:09:33.839
light. We know we don't have the water cooling hooked up yet, but hopefully we

00:09:31.839 --> 00:09:37.040
can at least just get a post out of it. How long does this thing take to post?

00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:39.600
It doesn't take that long. Come on, turn up. Okay, it's off. That's

00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:44.320
good. Ooh, it's really hot. It's really hot. That's a good sign, though, right? Uh, I mean, yeah, but also, we didn't

00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:48.399
get an output. Let's get the water cooling hooked up outside of the potato,

00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:52.640
then. Yes, real quick. Real quick. We've gone with a dual 40mm radiator, which

00:09:51.040 --> 00:09:57.440
for this kind of thermal load should be enough to run completely passively. And

00:09:54.959 --> 00:10:01.440
then this adorable little pump from the water cooled laptop setup.

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:04.080
There's water all over the board. What happened? It leaked.

00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:09.680
Fudge. Uh glass half full. You guys get to see the inside of the block now.

00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:13.279
I mean, theoretically, this board's conformal coated. So, that's a good point.

00:10:11.760 --> 00:10:15.600
My bigger concern is just that we didn't get an HDMI output from this thing.

00:10:14.800 --> 00:10:20.800
That's fair. Our contact with the die is actually not

00:10:17.920 --> 00:10:24.720
great. It's probably fine. Just need to put some more thermal compound on here.

00:10:22.640 --> 00:10:28.760
Uh, let's just test it without it being installed and see what happens.

00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:36.160
Oh my god. Did it work? Okay, it makes that that's a sensible

00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:42.880
picture. By the way, we're kind of bringing it back but in a more everyday

00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:45.279
wearable form. Ah, coming soon to LT

00:10:42.880 --> 00:10:50.320
store. We're going to find the leak. We're going to stamp it out. That's how

00:10:47.920 --> 00:10:55.760
you stop a leak. You just stop leaking.

00:10:52.160 --> 00:10:56.560
Oh snap.

00:10:55.760 --> 00:11:02.000
Literal. Oh no. Yeah. How long does it take to resin

00:11:01.040 --> 00:11:06.560
print a new top? I guess we're about to find out.

00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:10.240
While we're waiting for our new block to print, let's talk about the advantages

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:15.839
of resin printing. You can do more complex shapes with higher detail. It's

00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:18.240
low cost uh as well as much faster than

00:11:15.839 --> 00:11:21.279
machining from acrylic. And it's just watertight, which is kind of important

00:11:19.760 --> 00:11:24.880
when we're making a water block. So, it's a much better choice than FDM

00:11:22.880 --> 00:11:28.320
printing. This is going to take about 40 minutes. That's pretty fast. Once we're

00:11:26.560 --> 00:11:31.680
through that, we're going to wash it and cure it. Uh, and we're going to get back

00:11:29.680 --> 00:11:35.440
to it and hopefully finish this today. The downside to resin printing, as we

00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:39.680
experienced, it can be brittle depending on the resin you use. We're now using

00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:44.720
tough resin, which should give us a little more Linus proofness. And the

00:11:42.640 --> 00:11:48.000
other big downside is just it's a mess and there's fumes. It can be kind of

00:11:46.640 --> 00:11:53.200
annoying when you're done a print just dealing with the leftover resin, getting

00:11:49.680 --> 00:11:55.839
it back in, you know,

00:11:53.200 --> 00:12:02.200
watertight. Could you 3D print some water cooling tubes? Are we making a

00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:02.200
video on that right now?

00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:11.279
The top is not the same as the previous one that was printed.

00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:15.120
Oh, I see. It doesn't have the divider in the middle, which quite honestly is

00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:20.760
not going to make a difference. Fantastic. What could go wrong?

00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:20.760
Y'all ready for this?

00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:27.279
Uh, these holes are really small. Are you guys aware of that?

00:12:24.560 --> 00:12:29.839
Uh, yeah. It's Look, the blocks Well, that's why it cracked. Are you

00:12:29.040 --> 00:12:35.360
aware of that? I wasn't aware of that. Oh, here. Look. Uh, Justin flew pretty

00:12:32.959 --> 00:12:39.760
close to the sun on the size of these holes, and you can see that's actually

00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:44.320
probably what caused the cracking. We did a rush cure job, so the resin's

00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:46.560
still a little malleable. Oh, well that's good. It's good.

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:51.440
This is gonna go. It's gonna go. It's a goer, not a shower.

00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:59.320
Without it being cracked, which is a plus. Time to mount this bad boy. Now,

00:12:55.040 --> 00:12:59.320
just a gosh darn second here.

00:13:00.800 --> 00:13:07.360
It's not as thick as the old one, and the screws are too tall. We can fix

00:13:04.959 --> 00:13:12.880
that. We will never be able to unscrew and rescrew them, though, cuz this will

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:16.160
mangle the threads. Oh,

00:13:14.560 --> 00:13:19.920
hey. And we've got much better contact with the dye this time. I wonder if

00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:24.800
those previous screws were sticking through a little bit as well. Oh, maybe.

00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:28.240
There it is. That's what I'm talking about.

00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:32.560
Looks like cheese. I want to eat it. It's an appropriate topping for a potato. Certainly.

00:13:31.040 --> 00:13:38.079
Oh, man. I wish I had the foresight. What? To make a block out of cheese.

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:41.760
Is conformal coating cool or what? The fact that we just spilled water all over

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:45.600
this board and here we are like half an hour later just using it.

00:13:43.839 --> 00:13:49.839
Why doesn't everything have conformal coating on it? Cuz it's expensive. It adds another step

00:13:47.920 --> 00:13:52.639
and it's more difficult to repair after the fact. Oh, that makes sense.

00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:57.519
So, there are reasons. I'm going just start covering everything I own in conformal coating.

00:13:54.959 --> 00:13:59.680
Do you have like a spittle problem? Is there a reason?

00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:05.199
Really excited when I game. Is there a reason your electronics get wet?

00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:09.120
Oh, no way. I think we're good. Tough resin.

00:14:08.560 --> 00:14:13.360
Sure. Yeah. Well, it's working. Oh, we need to make a little cutout for

00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:18.560
the tubes. Oh, yeah. We need quite the cutout for the tubes. Oh, balls. So, David, do you

00:14:17.040 --> 00:14:23.880
want to eyeball this? Sure. So, right about Yeah, sure. Okay.

00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.480
He looks like he's got braces. Who knew a potato case could be so

00:14:27.839 --> 00:14:33.920
modular? Man, I'm water cooling my pumpkin next Halloween. Uh, did we have any thoughts

00:14:31.760 --> 00:14:36.160
for how to like seal up our case? Like, what about hot glue? Would hot glue

00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:39.120
hot glue's worse? Hot glue is worse. All right. Oh, so you've actually put

00:14:38.560 --> 00:14:43.760
I've tried measurable R&D in everything to try and make potatoes

00:14:43.199 --> 00:14:49.600
happen. If you can pull on the tubes a little bit just to Yeah. Oh boy. Oh yeah. There

00:14:48.160 --> 00:14:59.680
we there. Oh yeah. There. Oh, there we go. Okay. A little more.

00:14:52.800 --> 00:15:02.480
Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh buddy. I mean Oh.

00:14:59.680 --> 00:15:05.279
Oh. It's a filthy joke.

00:15:03.920 --> 00:15:10.000
What do you expect? It came out of the ground. Oh, we need power button.

00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:14.399
Oh, right. No, no, that's okay. I got a solution for that. Okay,

00:15:12.560 --> 00:15:16.639
now you're speaking my my language. Power button. Okay,

00:15:15.680 --> 00:15:20.800
my jankuage. So, this maybe I could cut a little spot

00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:26.920
for it after after first. Let's make sure this thing works. Oh. Uh uh pump.

00:15:23.920 --> 00:15:26.920
Whoa.

00:15:28.800 --> 00:15:34.320
All that's left then is to seal up our

00:15:31.839 --> 00:15:37.760
potato. Oh. Uh-oh. Totally fine. Yeah. Yeah. Hold on. Hold on. Uh, see advanced

00:15:36.880 --> 00:15:42.959
repair. No, we we got to Windows before. I bet this just boots. This probably

00:15:40.560 --> 00:15:45.040
just boots. Time to seal the deal. The only thing we're missing is some

00:15:44.160 --> 00:15:50.000
peripherals. Oh, wow. That worked really well. That immediately was like, "Yo, you're

00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:52.320
not taking this apart anymore." Okay. Potato PC.

00:15:51.680 --> 00:15:57.360
Okay. Okay. Does it need uh I think we need a little stand so it doesn't roll around.

00:15:56.399 --> 00:16:00.639
That's a potato wedges. Potato wedges. I get it. What about

00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:07.040
Okay, our potato fry monitor bezel.

00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:08.720
Oh my goodness. Wow, David, you um you

00:16:07.040 --> 00:16:17.399
made that hash brown desk mat, baby.

00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:17.399
Oh, what? Oh, what? Why? Oh,

00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:28.480
and what better mouse to use than a potato mouse?

00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:32.639
Did you guys get a Makey Makey or something? No, it's just it's just a mouse. They

00:16:31.040 --> 00:16:37.759
took the insides out. I've conformal coded it and it it works.

00:16:35.920 --> 00:16:42.800
I think I can even hear the clicks. Yep.

00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:45.120
Yeah, there it is.

00:16:42.800 --> 00:16:50.320
Surprisingly, this does appear to be tracking serviceably. Hold on. I'm going

00:16:47.199 --> 00:16:52.160
to launch a game. Let's play some uh

00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:56.399
Hold on. The click is a little bit of a challenge.

00:16:54.240 --> 00:17:02.240
I'm launching Halo Infinite. Okay, here we go. The mouse works.

00:16:57.839 --> 00:17:06.160
Oh my god, it actually kind of works.

00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:08.240
Ah. Ah. And no self-respecting gamer can

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:14.079
possibly complete their setup without RGB. Potato powered RGB.

00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:18.199
You've got one LED lit. Yeah. RGB.

00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:23.600
Well, is there not enough current to light more than one LED?

00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:29.280
So, I actually have a battery powering it currently. Oh, it's cheating. It was really cool when

00:17:27.439 --> 00:17:33.280
it first was put together. You're lucky I didn't have time to make the potato

00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:36.640
keyboard. The mouse is surprisingly somewhat

00:17:35.520 --> 00:17:41.360
usable. What do you think of the hash brown desk pad? Uh, it's really it's kind of unpleasant

00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:47.360
and greasy, but LTT Store went okay. What how's our CPU doing? Uh,

00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:50.799
we're at 50° right now. That's definitely warmer than we got

00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:55.360
when we first tested the system. Okay, but we wasn't in a potato. So,

00:17:53.520 --> 00:17:59.760
change of plans. We're going with Doom Eternal. The goal, one kill.

00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:03.760
I was pretty impressed with the performance I was getting out of this thing. I was a little bit worried and

00:18:02.320 --> 00:18:09.840
doomed because I was only getting 25 frames and I realized ray tracing was on. And you know what? 25 frames with

00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:14.640
ray tracing. Pretty good. Oh man, my like my ARM muscles from how

00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:20.480
hard it is to push on the click. I am getting 455

00:18:17.840 --> 00:18:22.559
frames per second. Right click.

00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:28.080
Get him. Come on. Oh, did I get him? I think you did. Oh, no you No, I

00:18:25.679 --> 00:18:30.960
didn't. Hold on. Right click. Am I Oh, I'm not Am I not on the right uh Oh,

00:18:29.919 --> 00:18:37.520
yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I got it. Yeah. Glory kill. Glory kill. Here we go. Here

00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:40.960
we go. Yes. Potato gaming, boys. Med

00:18:37.520 --> 00:18:44.000
pack. Med pack. Ah, my

00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:45.200
fell apart. Hold on. I got this. I can't

00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.160
click. It's coming apart. No.

00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:51.360
I can't click. This has got to be top 10 stupidest

00:18:50.080 --> 00:18:57.600
things we've ever done. No. No. Top three.

00:18:55.760 --> 00:19:01.919
I'm so happy I got to be here for this. And the desk mats come apart.

00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:08.480
Oh no. Oh wow. Well, everything.

00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:12.720
Okay. But like, can we appreciate for a

00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:15.520
moment how amazing this is? With root

00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:19.440
access, we're managing some seriously impressive hash power.

00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:24.160
Which of us is responsible for that line? I think it was a team team thing.

00:19:22.080 --> 00:19:28.960
Sorry. It was big potato that forced us to put that in there. As much of a meme

00:19:26.080 --> 00:19:35.520
as this project was, it is amazing, guys, what you can do with a tiny APU

00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:38.080
powered PC these days. And I really hope

00:19:35.520 --> 00:19:42.320
that even if this wasn't the most practical application of this, this gets

00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:47.600
your tractor rolling, coming up with cool ideas for fitting powerful

00:19:44.080 --> 00:19:49.760
computers in places that they have no

00:19:47.600 --> 00:19:55.200
right to be, like in this, the world's first peelable case.

00:19:52.320 --> 00:19:59.039
And in this segue to our sponsor, if you guys enjoyed this, if you like janky,

00:19:57.120 --> 00:20:02.880
dumb, but spectacular builds, you might like our video where we built

00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:07.200
Compensator 4 with the most expensive consumer parts we could get our hands

00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:07.200
on.
