so today's video is going to be a fun one we are finally upgrading our editing
0:04
workstations and by finally I mean didn't we just upgrade all of these and
0:08
put them on like a whole room water cooling Loop well that didn't work out
0:13
very well the whole room Loop ended up dirty and disgusting so we are going
0:17
back to good oldfashioned air Cooling and we're upgrading our Antiquated Titan
0:23
blacks to Titan X's for a reason that
0:28
um might not make well hm the Titan
0:32
blacks were doing okay we just we needed more DisplayPort outputs for our fancy
0:36
new 4k monitors but there is a catch today too each of the editors will be
0:40
responsible for their own PC upgrade so
0:44
expect some high Jinks in today's
0:55
video the master case 5 by Cooler Master lets you make your midtower PC case your
1:00
own with an assortment of modular accessories check out the link in the video description to learn
1:04
more so um this is kind of tricky we
1:08
need your editing workstations I I need my editing workstation right but I need
1:13
your editing workstation what for so that we can upgrade it
1:18
uh okay I need to work and I also need
1:22
that one Berkle okay I need to export
1:25
this though prent that I uh last night it
1:30
didn't work didn't work it failed is it working now ah don't do that it hurts so
1:38
it opens but it doesn't export what happens with the export it don't
1:43
work so here's the current state of the editing again you can see each of the
1:47
editors at least one of them Brandon has managed to make it in here with his
1:52
existing workstation they've got their new dual 31 muu 97 4K monitors from LG
2:00
they've got their new cencio MID Towers Ed do you know how to build a computer
2:04
yes I do actually I'm probably the only editor here who knows Brandon do you
2:08
know how to build a computer yes I've had to watch lonus build one for 2 years
2:12
every time we did a build guide so I think I do I'm not sure actually uh it's
2:17
it's going it's working okay hopefully it works so I let's go make new
2:20
computers Dennis do you know how to build a computer no I don't know I only
2:25
know how to edit Dennis you don't use a drill to
2:30
take apart a computer it's not necessary and potentially dangerous size does not
2:36
matter it's how you use it so first up
2:39
we've got gem 2 s524 version 2 CPU
2:43
Cooler Ceno 652 s cases
2:47
X540 network card this is going to be
2:50
the centerpiece of the new machines CPUs the 4960 X's our 32 gigs of Kingston
2:55
value RAM and our x79 Deluxe motherboards as well as v750 50 power
3:00
supplies will stay the same but all the water cooling has got to go are we going
3:06
to wear anti-static uh wrist straps um
3:10
usually at Lis Media Group we would do that but I don't have enough for all of
3:14
you so you'll have to just ground yourself on the power supply
3:18
periodically we got to drain these puppies uh so it's
3:24
raining you guys should be safe to work anywhere behind this line p out the CPU
3:31
block and the gpus and then just kind of let them hang there okay The Next Step
3:36
remove your old graphics card so this screw right here yeah there you go okay
3:40
so now we're actually going to tip it up for the draining
3:45
process that is some dirty
3:48
water that is why whole room didn't work
3:52
corrosion you want to put this into the
3:56
top nozzle here and switch it on to blow up the loop
4:01
now Ed you are ready for this step as
4:05
well but yours is a little trickier because you
4:08
got oh that's a good noise yeah I have
4:12
my graphics card out my RAM out I'm having a hard time getting my
4:16
motherboard out but I'm not sure why uh
4:19
sometimes it just gets caught on the io Shield a little bit Yeah I think that's what it is oh okay there go
4:26
y berl do you know how to build a computer no I do not and I've never
4:30
Built Well I had one but I didn't really like build it I think I bought it built
4:36
I think you pulled it off get
4:41
it yes are you ready Taran uh no I'm
4:46
rendering uh the super fun video we need
4:50
your workstation yes I know but I'm I need to render and it needs to happen
4:54
now because it will not happen later because problems happen there's been
4:58
many bugs Li us give me all that this is
5:02
no longer your problem I will this later
5:06
teren do you know how to build a computer vaguely I put my brother's
5:10
computer together but he actually messaged me and said Taran you never got
5:14
this working the GPU was not installed
5:17
it's not attached okay so the next St is this your new case yeah you're getting
5:23
so far ahead okay first took the doors
5:26
off you have to I mean the take apart your old computer oh that's trash let's
5:31
go the new one we're going to take each component and blow that blow the dust
5:34
out over there that's just look at this sweet custom portable hard drive I put
5:39
in here yeah it's pretty gangster why would you Burl Burl Tech
5:47
tips that's good
5:51
right I hate those type of connectors take the memory out first then you can
5:55
reach it m have you ever taken apart a computer no this is my first time Dennis
6:01
what do you do when your computer gets broken in Taiwan you just pay and
6:05
someone fix it so I had no idea about
6:09
this come around the other side check this out was
6:12
that oh no what is that teran's system
6:17
must have been leaking somewhere or dripping somewhere at some point there
6:21
is a whack of corrosion on the SLI fingers so it's not until I fully take
6:26
this apart that I'm going to know the extent of the damage go ahead and start removing those is yeah it was working
6:31
fine notice how I'm unscrewing them in a crosswise pattern good job yeah I
6:35
learned that from a certain Linus of lest TS or like back okay no that's
6:43
terrible W yeah no
6:47
kidding make your own okay uh Brandon's
6:50
going to be the first one doing his uh CPU Cooler install never installed this
6:56
cooler you got this right Brandon yeah I got this no problem easy what the
7:00
hell uh motherboard first I don't know if I got all the screws oh okay well you
7:06
know I don't know how hard I'm supposed to pull on things I don't want to break anything and then pull out the rest of
7:10
the wires and you're ready to that's good hold on Burk was next I really do
7:13
feel like the teacher at like a class right now Mr
7:17
Sebastian put your hand up okay so power
7:22
supply and that bring them outside and we'll uh we'll blow them out Nick
7:25
managed to convince Dennis that these were internet tubes I knew it useless is it the rge
7:34
yeah I'm about to use it uh oh orientation yeah I hadn't really given
7:39
that much thought I figured this just cuz it doesn't seem to make a difference
7:42
if is this correct uh took everything out yeah that all looks good so go ahead
7:46
and put that next to the one that has the graphics cards on it I mean this
7:51
way okay but can you guys get your old stuff out of here this is why I
7:55
specifically told you this is just install the RAM
8:00
before the cooler just as easy there we go what I I can just keep
8:05
these screws right I mean the screw is a screw this is why you shouldn't have
8:09
been on time for the class I was fixing
8:13
a video that we have to put up plug in your headers before you screw in your
8:17
motherboard what's a header these things look like
8:20
headers from a hot rod piece of my case
8:24
fell off that I have no idea what it's for what is this where's my second Titan
8:28
l not getting a second Titan this time why
8:32
not you're like a child I hate
8:35
you you're not my real dad I never
8:38
claimed to be your dad that' be super weird then then why did you make me sit
8:42
on your lap all those times that's cuz I'm Santa oh there's no there's no IO
8:49
Shield installed in here oh that's going to cost him big most my PCS don't have
8:54
IO Shields I got a I got a IO sh oh good
8:59
all right that's one step ahead of Ed so now you need to put these little brass
9:02
things a b c d e f j k l building
9:07
ability of den oh wow this is going to go on r/ te
9:13
support door right here you do ble screwed in his motherboard without a
9:16
standoff I sure hope it still works it's right against the back of the case okay
9:21
oh man I sure hope this board's okay what cuz it was bent a bit oh more than
9:25
a bit I bet it's still bent oh
9:29
no it managed to snap back yeah so this was bent like right down to the
9:34
motherboard well don't bend it again it's very rare where you're freaking out
9:39
and I'm not I only freak out when it's really really bad
9:43
oo half of the screws you used were the wrong ones oh come on I showed you this
9:48
yeah I and half of the ones you used are this you you can't even tell the
9:52
difference they're not the same at all they're still screws they screwed them
9:56
the length is wrong they weren't even holding the motherboard on oh you pull
10:00
this off and put it in your case box sure it stays then this fan will plug in
10:05
down here Taran you put in two of the wrong screws again they all look the
10:08
same no they don't well that one's slightly different looking yeah and oh
10:13
right these need to plug into the motherboard places where they for heaven
10:17
sakes I think I'm done all right let's do our final check y so you should have
10:22
another USB header okay did you ever
10:25
screw these all the way in I thought oh maybe not all the way
10:28
in good thing I checked Ed is the one
10:32
who was legitimately done
10:36
first let's see yep I like it right so
10:42
that tool that you were complaining about I will kill you turns out that you
10:47
needed to use it useless is it the rudge yeah I'm
10:54
about to use it no no I don't know what you're talking about Ed so Brandon needs
10:58
to actually tighten his CPU heat sink really okay though
11:02
because I can just turnen this by hand anyway I need to put hard drive my SSD
11:07
but uh front fans as well did I mess it up what are you doing I'm just going to
11:10
move your Nick not very cool it's very
11:14
cool you just don't know it yet that's 10 gbit it's super fast just like you
11:18
yeah but I got like 10 jpeg yeah L is
11:21
how many jpegs is this computer lonus will this do email and I am can we get
11:27
an easier way to get the iTunes on there does this get the net hey lonus where do
11:32
you connect the phone into to run the internet is this really it that's all
11:38
building I can make a YouTube channel oh that hurt so what about how easy this is
11:43
and how you should make your own YouTube channel this is super easy and I'm going
11:47
to make my own YouTube channel no SSD
11:51
power yeah I don't I don't need power do
11:54
I need you have
11:57
power so all that's left is to find out
12:01
if the computers work so we're going to use Brandon's workstation there as a
12:05
quick uh what are you doing dude those are custom I mean technically it doesn't
12:10
hurt anything it's just inconvenient so
12:14
all that's left now is to make sure they all work and then stay tuned when we do
12:18
the actual tour of not just the new editing rigs but also all the
12:24
peripherals and like cool stuff that we have to go with them okay Mr done for
12:29
first couple things here your Quadro is
12:32
not screwed in at all your Titan a is
12:36
missing a screw also this eight pin connector isn't plugged in all the way
12:42
so that is why we weren't getting a post
12:45
Brandon and Ed's machines both working
12:49
we are making real progress here folks but the real test is going to be Burl's
12:53
computer so I'm saving that for last okay so here's the last one let's
12:58
find out if burl computer works why wouldn't it it's perfect power
13:03
stage mode oh it
13:07
posts thank goodness it still have problems I don't no it's probably fine
13:12
cuz if you snapped your motherboard in half it should pretty much be dead yeah
13:16
