Hey guys, I'm here at the MOA event in Las Vegas and we've got Alex from MSI.
0:06
This is my best impersonation of Dead Mouse, a Canadian, you know, one of your
0:10
Canadian people, you know.
0:14
Oh. Oh, they're they're calling me up to go race, but I want to check this out
0:17
first. So, he's actually changing the hose from one of our liquid nitrogen
0:21
tanks here to another one. So you can see he is employing all of the highest
0:26
technology uh safety uh procedures that
0:31
would be used for a procedure like this
0:34
including very large oven mitts on one of his
0:38
hands his left
0:41
hand. All right. So he is unscrewing the
0:44
hose with a crescent wrench. Then he is applying the second glove and unscrewing
0:49
it the rest of the way by hand. So, uh, maybe when Alex is done changing
0:55
the hose, I can ask him whether we've
0:58
finished one tank and we still have, uh, or two tanks and we still have four
1:03
tanks to go or whether it is four tanks
1:06
that were through and two tanks left to go. So, actually, it should be pretty
1:10
easy to tell. Yeah, that seems full. Okay, so it looks like we're on to tank
1:14
number three and that is for all these guys to continue their liquid nitrogen
1:20
overclocking
1:24
adventures. So here we get our safety safety speech, which I'm
1:29
obviously paying a lot of attention to right now. I'm not Don't turn around,
1:34
but I'm no don't turn around, but I'm going to be racing my MSI sales rep. As
1:38
a lot of you guys probably know, I am a product manager at NCIX. So, I've told
1:43
him he has to give me a special deal if I beat him in the go-kart race today at
1:47
the MSI MOA event at CES.
1:52
Okay. So, I got my head sock on. Just going to throw on my helmet and then
1:55
we're going to get geared up for the uh for the cart race here.
1:59
How does this go? Oh, that's that's way too big. I might need a small. Okay.
2:06
Apparently, I forget my size. You forgot your size. That's forgot my
2:10
size. That's what Blank said. It's been
2:14
a while since I've ordered a helmet, so you know. Go easy on me here, man. Okay,
2:18
there we go. It's not bad. Is that on right now? Okay, here I am
2:23
getting into my uh cart number 27. Apparently, the pedals are more
2:28
accessible if your leg isn't stuck under the uh There we go. We got our safety
2:34
harness here. very important place. Oh no, and all typed in. So hopefully the
2:40
next footage I have for you guys is actually there is actually of me going
2:46
around the cart instead around the track instead of sitting here in the pit area.
3:00
So
3:17
slow, please.
3:32
Well, guys, I did survive the go-karting adventure here at CES at the MSI
3:37
overclocking event. And uh I haven't
3:40
checked my times yet, but I hope that I beat my sales rep because if I did, I
3:45
made him promise me some kind of stupid deal on something in the uh in the near
3:50
future here. So, that was the stakes and uh I committed absolutely nothing to him
3:54
if he wins. So, it's kind of a win-win sort of situation here. So, don't forget
3:59

4:04
kinds of tech videos. Thanks for checking it out.
