1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:09,519
RGB power supplies RGB sli bridges

2
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:11,679
RGB water cooling fittings i guess some

3
00:00:09,519 --> 00:00:16,160
men really do just want to watch the world burn don't they

4
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:22,640
but if you're the type of person who wishes this RGB trend would just please

5
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:27,599
go away already the type of person who will keep wearing black until they

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:30,800
invent something that's darker well then you

7
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:37,200
you're in luck my nerdy nicktophile friend because today we are wiping the

8
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:39,920
RGB glee right off of a perfectly good

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:52,480
rainbow rig and replacing it with the blackest black you can get in a can

10
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:58,879
synergy allows you to share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers

11
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:03,280
at once check it out now at the link in the video description

12
00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:08,400
for maximum satisfaction we thought we'd start out with a build that's not very

13
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:15,119
black at all for our case we chose the aptly named fantex eclipse p400 tempered

14
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:19,759
glass glacier white and for the internals well

15
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:24,840
if you remember our RGB build guide whose glory you can witness here

16
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:28,640
you'll recognize all the glowtastic components that were loaded

17
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,320
inside take them in now kids because after

18
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,040
today it's lights out

19
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:42,079
to achieve our goal we're using a product called black 2.0 the world's

20
00:01:40,799 --> 00:01:48,399
flattest maddest black art material from stuart

21
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:54,240
semple out of the uk short of using carbon nanotubes this

22
00:01:51,360 --> 00:02:00,320
stuff is the darkest black in a bottle and we've got lots of it

23
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:02,960
it's like a regular acrylic paint except

24
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:07,439
it uses a special base that allows it to hold way

25
00:02:04,399 --> 00:02:11,360
more pigment than usual drying with a

26
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:14,800
super flat non-reflective finish so even

27
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:17,680
if some chipper rainbow thumper shows up

28
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,560
at your lan party with RGB strobe lights and a glowing fidget spinner in your

29
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:25,599
face your rig will actually be able to absorb

30
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:30,400
the fun finally a pc that's as soul sucking and

31
00:02:28,239 --> 00:02:35,519
nihilistic as you are we blacked out the most egregious parts

32
00:02:32,879 --> 00:02:38,519
of the machine first yes

33
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:58,879
your feeble skills are no match for the

34
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,040
power of the dark side

35
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:03,590
power

36
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,159
oh excuse me sorry

37
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:14,080
since we weren't using spray paint like we did in the plasti-dip pc video which

38
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:17,840
you can watch here we didn't have to do a whole lot of

39
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:23,120
masking this time around in order to protect sensitive components

40
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:25,519
instead we relied on laser-like focus

41
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:30,640
and a few rubber stoppers to avoid painting the motherboard headers slot

42
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:37,120
pins and card edges but who wants to paint an entire case using a tiny

43
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:40,480
filbert move over bob ross for this part

44
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:43,040
it's time to pull out the big guns

45
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:48,319
well relatively speaking we used a 7-inch roller to say night night to the

46
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:54,640
eclipse p400 i don't care how popular white is

47
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:56,480
back in black black back in black

48
00:03:54,640 --> 00:04:01,519
yeah i can't do the ac dc thing forget it and you know what actually now that i

49
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:05,840
think of it why stop at desecrating just one

50
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:07,599
2017 pc hardware trend

51
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:12,400
and we're back this is this is a really weird video

52
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:16,160
anyway with the painting done and it actually only ended up taking one bottle

53
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,400
of black 2.0 so for how much of it we bought it's

54
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:25,759
sure lucky it isn't expensive uh we were ready to put it all back

55
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,919
together pro tip by the way if you paint

56
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:31,520
over the legend on your motherboard use the manual to figure out where your

57
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:36,639
power and reset leads go leaving only the answer to the question

58
00:04:34,479 --> 00:04:42,639
on everyone's mind does it still work

59
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:45,520
theoretically it should be fine we did

60
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:48,960
test our black 2.0 on a sacrificial video card before beginning the project

61
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:54,320
and while putting heavy paint on fan blades

62
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:57,280
could debalance them or slow them down a little perhaps affecting the rig's

63
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:03,120
thermals our expectations were high

64
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:07,039
high until they were dashed because no

65
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:10,720
no it doesn't work anymore it actually did turn on for a little bit

66
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:15,840
but now it's as dead as you are inside in

67
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:20,160
retrospect we could have coated everything with a plasti-dip primer

68
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:26,320
since we know for sure that plasti-dip is non-conductive but i guess we just

69
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,639
flew too close to the sun on this one

70
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:33,759
at least we only killed the motherboard since that was the only actual pcb that

71
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:39,680
we painted so there's still a valuable lesson for our vamp friends out there

72
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:42,720
you should be able to use this product

73
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:44,960
to black out your RAM case

74
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:48,720
video cards you pretty much name it without impacting performance or

75
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:55,680
operation on the uh bright side even though it's dead it

76
00:05:53,600 --> 00:06:00,400
pretty much looks just like it would have if it had worked and we hadn't worked it

77
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:06,800
so then enjoy this completely satisfying and

78
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:10,360
actually kind of goth footage of our finished product

79
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,880
i can't say enough good things about synergy it's a simple software download

80
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:47,840
that solves once and for all the problem of having two keyboards and two mice on

81
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:53,440
your desk whatever reason you have for running two computers at a time uh maybe

82
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:58,560
you want to test your code in multiple environments and you don't like vms or

83
00:06:55,840 --> 00:07:03,120
maybe you've got a a work issued macbook but you prefer a pc at home

84
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:07,680
synergy will allow you to use the same keyboard and mouse seamlessly across

85
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,800
both of them you just drag and drop the mouse across the screen and it works in

86
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,720
Windows mac and even Linux and it isn't

87
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,000
even limited to just two systems you can have as many as i think we've tested

88
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:22,000
like five at a time they've got a basic and pro option with

89
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:25,599
a one-time payment and features include things like clipboard sharing between

90
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:29,599
computers dragging and dropping files between computers the ability to set up

91
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:34,240
hotkeys and more check out our link in the video description to get 50

92
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,800
off synergy today so thanks for watching guys if you

93
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:41,520
dislike this video you can hit that button but if you liked it hit the like button get subscribed and maybe consider

94
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,639
checking out where to buy the stuff we featured whether it's hardware or

95
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,919
painting products at the links in the video description also down there you'll

96
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:53,840
find our merch store which has cool shirts like this one as well as our community forum which you should totally

97
00:07:51,599 --> 00:08:02,080
join back in black no back in black

98
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,080
it's probably the closest so far
