Awesome Hardware #0104-B: Vega LEAKED? New Windows OS, Gaming News!

2017-05-02
why just just the calm before okay now okay I've gotten the green light from Paul he is the stream master and he has given us the approval to go ahead and start my half of the show so welcome to awesome hardware this is episode 104 you're watching side B or or the second part of the second half of today's show if you missed side a and you're watching this after the fact that we've live streamed you can watch Part A on Paul's channel that's youtube.com slash Paul's Hardware if you're watching this live welcome back we have a whole other hour or so of content to give you guys right now again this is a show that Paul and I do every single Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. Pacific right here on YouTube each of our respective YouTube channels obviously we break it up into two halves or on twitch TV / awesome hardware where we stream the entire show in its entirety which is the most redundant sentence I've said all day that's all that's on that note so let's continue where Paul left off no no first off let's talk about some of the merchandise that we are selling on our respective stores mine is Billy tech slash store I just added a replenished hoodies so nice nice old hoodies just in time for summer wear um yep just in time for the hottest summer get him get him while they're hot get hot as well as the words in the circle are pretty cool am i right bit with glasses now in 20 ounce varieties much larger they can contain they contain more booze now than ever before think we're in ribbed for her pleasure rig you should be my marketing manager and then also Paul selling stuff on his store calls Paul's hardware net um he's got everything everything that your heart may or may not desire look Oh a shooting solution all's yes or if you're going for a spot of polo refresher or if you're gonna play water polo that's a must be what polo shirts are for so for that and English pub glasses in all that jazz so beautiful let's go ahead and just dive right in to the news the tech news to be exact first of which is Vega benchmarks have they been leaked yes yes they have let's talk about it this article comes from guru 3d comm and the the benchmark that is in question here is that of the 3dmark time spy test and we haven't had official I mean or I shouldn't say official or it's not necessarily confirmed that this is a Vega GPU but there are many hints that point to that direction and just just to briefly run down the scores that this mysterious tree card was was yielding five thousand nine hundred and fifty points in three mark time spy and five thousand seven hundred and twenty one points yielded in the graphic score and there's actually a nice little chart here a nice little graph that shows where this possible Vega entry stacks up against the competition it's this one and you can see it it's right in line with the gtx 1070 from nvidia um which is a bit underwhelming but we'll talk about that in just a bit now there are certain like I said cues that that hint at this being a Vega card the first of which is that this particular model was rated to have eight gigabytes of memory or was listed as having eight gigs of memory running at 700 megahertz now if you guys remember the feejee cards particularly the r9 theory that was running HP m1 the og HBM at 500 megahertz so it's not too far-fetched to believe that this could be HB m to running at a lower supposed lower frequency of 700 megahertz it's definitely not a stretch also this is a also being displayed as using a beta driver running at a core clock of twelve hundred megahertz which seems kind of low but bear in mind that this is well before retail why do you have a picture of a blonde chick on your uh tomato McHale I was named a cup grad here in person yes we have that um I followed her on Twitter okay it was very distracting to see like this attractive young she's a true blind woman on your on your you know completely nude on on your laptop she's not using I just thought it like I don't know how you can focus with that I mean they're no you're right yeah I'm totally know she was gonna completely just completely sidetrack yes III I see I see I see what about about this would this be a bit easier to share this is great yeah that's not saving work right there what is this making you feel bad about not browsing your Twitter feeds around office right now I'm gonna start doing it get all this I don't know what it's like a Friday go over rice and some like right vision meet around the side it looks amazing my slice is from mark Julio he I don't know if he still works for Mad Catz he is from work for Mad Catz also someone who I met America a new egg just a blonde he's Philly's Filipino still in Abood yeah something to do it you're following all the right people Paul thank you very much sir Valley into the third for the $30 nation we will be taking all of the comments attached to donations and reading them off and answering your questions at the end of this half so bear that in mind um ok we're getting back on track here where did I leave off yeah we think this is a vega card we think that these benchmarks are from a Vega GPU because of the evidence that we've see seen here 700 megahertz with 8 gigs of memory that's 700 megahertz on the memory of course and twelve hundred megahertz on the core clock which again seems kind of low but if this is an engineering sample which is very likely then retail clocks may be much higher also the card was tested on an X 370 board with a risin 7 1,800 X GPU which seems very AMD centric uh and I think this is probably the nail in the coffin of identifying this card as Vega is at the driver ID for the entry in the the 3d mark database is 687 fc-1 which is the same ID it matches the ID found on a doom vulcan demo that was at an AMD vent event so this is likely this is very likely to be Vega I mean if you actually there's a screenshot in the article that I linked of the of like a screen screen grab of doom so you can see the the 6 8 7 FC 1 right there matches the same ID as the one in the 3 mark database so I think that's very convincing to say the least but I say and and following up with what Paul was mentioning earlier like this is a little underwhelming to see Vega that's been so highly anticipated competing right neck and neck with the gtx 1070 but we have to bear in mind that AMD is going to be releasing several variants of cards using their Vega architecture at varying performances and price points so this could easily be you know maybe a mid mid to high range but they haven't really shown their full hand yet there could potentially be a Vega card that competes more directly with the GTX 1084 example and you know God willing a gtx 980ti that would be pretty freakin sweet so we'll just have to wait and see till then but overall this does show a bit of what's to come from AMD Oh what was that was that Loki she said beavis and butthead laughs it come ha ha ha ha as funny I did say that didn't I did all right let's move on to her next topic which is about Windows 10 s Windows 10 s uh Paul did allude to this topic earlier in his half of the show but Windows 10 s is a new operating system from Microsoft of course that is slated to compete more directly with Chrome OS and Google Google's Chromebooks those those nasty little Chromebooks paper towels everything um did you spill you did spill just a little bit of beer the hell is wrong with when it ported it just came over the top we can't take you anywhere whoa all right go ahead and stall do a little dance actually I've got some paper towels here for I always keep good paper towels my room for thermal paste and stuff um face and and beer when you spill it that's perfect for indeed um so this was just announced by Microsoft Verde today yes it was this was this operating system Windows 10 s has been formally rumored as Windows 10 cloud but that's not the official name it's Windows 10 s this is a new and lightweight version of Windows 10 however there's a bit of a caveat before we talk about that this operating system is really targeted at education focused devices so kind of the Chromebook equivalents but running running Windows so the catch the the caveat that I'm talking about here is that Windows 10s is going to function very similarly to Windows 10 however all the applications that you'll be using on it will have to be downloaded directly from the Windows Store you are basically locked all the users are locked into the Windows Store environment anything that runs on a Windows 10 s device will have been acquired through the Windows Store which is uh you know it sucks I mean but but you know I mean that's that's kind of the case I guess but a lot of these educational devices I remember when we had computers in my high school they all suck they all had like stupid limitations on them granted it was completely different because they were more like you know different sites you couldn't access you couldn't go on like MySpace or xanga where all those older social media sites but this is a sort of in that same vein you again anything that's on the Windows Store that's the only thing you'll be able to access unfortunately to respond it to twitch chat yeah yes Jerry has already started talking about how terrible windows tennis is oh I'm sure yeah he is a you can always leave is Jerry to a bash the Microsoft's so the other thing here is that 10s users I'm just going to call it 10s to as a shorthand they can still run x86 based desktop applications which does which is one of the things the main thing that sets it apart from Windows RT you weren't able you're not able to do that on RT again those those x86 based desktop applications need to have been packaged and listed in the Windows Store to be supported on those devices the operating system will run any browser in the store this was a direct quote from some bigwig at Microsoft perhaps hinting that Google should bring chrome to the Windows Store it is the number one operating sorry web browser so it makes sense that the Microsoft would want to see that pop up in its store to sort of promote their Windows 10 yes I don't know how to feel about that why having like I want to say yeah Google should do that but should they yeah I don't know a like they don't it like it supports themselves it supports the Chrome browser but it also sort of shoots themselves in the foot because it prevents people from maybe buying a Chromebook yeah right it sort of competes with itself but also that's what happens when you're a company that makes so many different products and services you know and you you want to like sometimes sometimes promoting one product means you have to sort of uh you know I don't know sacrifice on marketing the other I don't know but at any rate this is going to feature the new operating system is going to be featured on a wide range of products starting at 189 u.s. very affordable for the the poor person student most students are poor so a sub $200 price point seems reasonable all products rockin Windows 10s will come with a free subscription of minecraft ya education edition oh sorry yeah oh that was a class mean that was really close oh it was almost good um I don't know I didn't even know that there was an education before you craft this diamond pickaxe you must add or these math question you must replace is what it does one what is what is the Capitals I ear haha ah here's your coal you do detest it um and also a free office 365 with Microsoft teams ok so not not actually the office 365 suite but you will get educated you'll get free education for some period of time with the Microsoft team's team I don't know the hell Microsoft teams is time will tell if Microsoft can steal any of the market share in the education sector from Google and they're popular Chromebooks also I thought this was kind of interesting Microsoft is including some education based features into their new OS you can read about it in the article that we're talking about here I can go over all the details but a full version of Office is coming to the Windows Store which is nice being able to have full access to you know full Excel all the Word and PowerPoint features on a device like this that's kind of cool and here's the here's the kicker students with Windows 10 s can upgrade to Windows 10 Pro for free at any time so and and as you like to upgrade you can then install any program doesn't you're no longer limited to the Windows Store applications you can its its Windows 10 Pro so I don't know why anyone would not do that if you're how they validate that you're a student Oh edu email address perhaps is probably a yeah an active edu address it seems also lately yeah I don't think you're you you have any notes on this and this is a CNET story that I just pulled up but they also announced a surface laptop for 999 bucks with Windows 10 S on with Windows 10 so this is for the is for the rich kid in your class that everyone hates yes and so there I think you're saving a little bit of money on the cost overall cost of the surface because of the Windows 10 s instead of full Windows but the surface is a nice little laptop sure is one looks pretty damn good a thousand bucks is a pretty good price and um like look how thin it is yes yeah if it's right in your your backpack easy to carry around with you on campus I wonder how the battery life is yeah probably not a met and it's it's pretty good yeah I would have liked this this is potentially a huge competitor for something like a macro little pro oh yeah down on my chest and when it comes to the thin light category um cuz it's got I mean like these finishes that they have going on yeah it's definitely different kind of like a granite yeah kind of granite or gum stone finish or whatever comes with a little stupid Microsoft Mouse hate those mice I don't know they're not bad they're dumb hey they have a very small footprint anyway check out the CNN article go to cnn.com and search for surface laptop is Microsoft's 99.9 Cal's not going to have this article link in the description is what I'm trying to say so gogoat they're calling yeah okay all right so that's fun let's move on to our next story which is about the next generation of VR enhancements coming to the HTC vive very soon I'll actually talked about this briefly he talked about one of the things and one of the features one of the new technologies that's coming up quickly but I want to go over a couple others this is just the beginning there's lots of room to grow when it comes to virtual reality I'd say what the HTC vive and oculus rift launched no more than a year or two ago and the the the vibe launched over a year ago the rifts launched about here ago yeah so still very much in its infancy this VR technology and there are a lot of companies that are trying to build on that and trying to grow the platform to make it better make the experiences richer for the end-user of course vibes virtual reality venture capital Alliance or VR CA is a group trying to take VR to new heights especially on the vibe and this will likely bleed over to the rift so you know obviously these technologies the ones that stick will probably eventually sort of spread to the other platforms of the competitors and Engadget which is where this articles from took a sneak peek at what's to come to the vibe at the the group's fourth official meeting the first of which is is sort of like Wireless VR I mean it is Wireless VR even though we already kind of have a taste of that Wireless VR is already possible with the help of TP casts adapter that they shipped earlier this year but now that same company is working on a newer upgraded adapter called the TP cast Business Edition that not only enables Wireless play but multiplayer which will give more freedom to users who are collaborating ideally in the same physical room within a vr environment so type player like multiplayer like when users are in the same like to base to people wearing to VR headsets right in the same cube of Cuba VR nests yes to call that yeah we've seen room-scale space in the same room scale area it's gonna be that's gonna be awesome because eventually you'll have these situations where they're playing a video game to gives you the sense like oh you know I'm doing whatever in VR yeah but then like there's another player yeah and then you physically like you know tackle them or something yeah and everything breaks yeah great real boxing cool so so um there's a there's there's a lot to be to be said more more about this it's going to give more freedom obviously social media improvements they there's a company called oben or Obon I'm not exactly sure how to pronounce that they've partnered with WeChat which is huge social platform in China and they're building an AI driven virtual environment that allows VR users to seamlessly interact with WeChat users on mobile so you might be at the grocery store and I might be in my VR headset here in this room and I could we can have a conversation of some sort we can we can interact with each other you know while you're on your mobile device and I'm just dicking around here um it involves creating a realistic can't you do that with like phones you can do the you could do without what do you do you know I can talk you could do that with phones Paul but that's no fun like what where's the fun in that you know it's not VR let's make it infinitely more complicated by introducing a VR headset in light boxes and I'm just saying like there's there's tons of potential for VR and cool things you can do with the AR but I feel like video chat like is like I don't think there's well alright alright alright but I don't know there's nothing that I take it back yeah you do Star Wars what not what I thought you were gonna say cuz Star Wars you know when they're when they talk to people they have like a little hologram the hologram or yeah like that okay okay like okay okay if people are going if VR is gonna catch on in a big way and people are going to be spending more time in their headsets doesn't it make sense that if someone texts you you should have a way to be able to interact with them immediately directly and easily without having to ever take your headset off or grabbing a keyboard of some sort doesn't make sense I mean being able to just like converse say with its bridging the gap between two completely different mediums text messaging for example says vo it is a good question and something that I'm sure will come up more often as VR becomes more popular like I don't know if or something like that I I feel like mixed reality would make more sense something like a hololens where you can still see the world around you mm-hmm so where you could type on a keyboard or something like that better or what for what about a game that you know can can support VR but doesn't necessarily have to you don't actually have to be in a headset to play it so let's say you're doing sort of a VoIP thing between someone who's playing without a headset and you're actually wearing a headset and if it's like a co-op game or you know you usually need to communicate within the game you know it how are you going to talk to that person if they're on a keyboard and you're in a headset yeah so amazing I mean right now in VR you've got the headset you've got whatever controllers you're using or something like that so some like if you can't just talk and they can hear you like with a microphone or something like that then yes there needs to be some solution for how you might communicate with someone because you don't just have a keyboard and you can't just type when you're using the VR controllers or yeah that kind of thing so so yeah um so so basically what this is what this is a you know developing what this companies developing is a way to use smart speech to text programs where like you know if you were let's say at the grocery store with your phone and I was here with a VR headset I could just do a speech to text type of thing where i'm like hey Paul I hate you and then it just it just texts you the the text it'll just send you the text and you'll get it and it's more accurate things like that that is being worked on currently and it's also the companies also developing an app that will allow WeChat mobile users to control an avatar in the VR world without wearing a headset so even if you were at the grocery store I could still you could still command and control an avatar in a VR environment that I would see okay um and so like a like you know it would you know sort of bring us together a little bit more obviously for me a bit more since I would be wearing the headset and I could see you and walk around you and stuff you wouldn't be able to do all that but you would still have sort of an avatar that you could control from your phone which would lower the barrier but you know for for VR experiences theoretically and some reason that reminds me of like tights play World of Warcraft right mm-hmm world of warcraft and I'm World of Warcraft there was what what was known as keyboard Turner's Turner's yes which is people who use the keyboard to turn left and right button oh yeah yeah which is way less efficient than turning with the mouse right so you can actually whip around and aim at something or like that right right right so maybe in the future if someone's just controlling the avatar in a VR you know in a massive online game or something like that and so just controlling with the controller or a keyboard or something and walking forward and back they don't have the full range of movements and quick whatever that you would if you're fully like in the VR immersive units or whatever it tracks your movements that will be the equivalent of a keyboard turner be a VR Turner or no I'm mobile Turner yeah okay anyway just that's what popped into my head all right and then seven in Venson which is one of the companies that Paul was talking about earlier in his half of the show they're doing a pretty cool I tracking kit I'm not going to go into detail about that you can watch Paul's half in order to get more info on that and then exactly one last one is uh-oh no that was it that was all of it that's all all the all this technology that was shown and showcased at this meeting is still under development but most of it according to the article will be available this year at some point in the form of upgrades to the HTC vive these are sort of you know add-ons to the vibe if you will the vibe staff did not confirm whether any of this showcase technology would appear on a next-generation headset in the near future it would be cool if we had like a vibe to point O or 3.0 later down the line that just included all this crap so you wouldn't have to keep buying these little add-ons or whatever but that's what we're stuck with for now and let's move on to our next topic which is about a sir I think this uh article comes from the same sort of press conference that Paul was discussing with the X 27 X 20 set monitor this is the predator triton triton and 700 which is a badass ultra book slash you know gaming laptop it says it's frost forged ross i catched that's how is that it's not true that is objectively not true that it is frost forged forged in the in the confines of ice on the on the towel on the big mountain of glacier palace is just and so fanciful and not sounds like they're canada like a game of thrones sounds like yeah Game of Thrones that's stupid so a star announced this at their recent press event is the first laptop in their new line of predator Triton ultra-thin gaming laptops features an aluminum housing at 18 millimeters thick and the specs include Katie Lake Core i7 processors did not say if they were mobile or not but since it didn't mess Pesa phi mobile I would guess get all desktops are very very effective self-destruct feature that makes the keyboard does completely explode and fly to the air as you can see here that's a security measure that sister really intense yeah the entire thing flies apart picked every constituent part it's amazing as soon as I've been waiting for this technology you can still figure it to automatically do that as soon as someone clicks on your web browsing history yeah it just instantly disintegrates and explodes in your face takes out the person watching they just die instantly so specs include cable a core i7 GTX 10 series cards so I believe you might be able to get a gtx 1080 in this on the phone is really only 70 and 80 or all 60 70 80 so it seems very much like this is already competing with the razor blade pro series right you get the aluminum housing the super thin design the ten series cards two PCIe SSD s up to 32 gigs of EVR for mechanical keyboard with LED backlit keys these are the scissor switch type of mechanical keyboards not necessarily like the old-school like like the Titan SLI keyboards where it's actually a real straight-up Cherry MX keyboard that that seems that seems BS well that's what razor says the same thing about their blade Pro there are mechanical switches yeah they're using mechanical likes really flat mechanical switches like the world's first mechanical switches and and to some degree they kind of are they sort of have a lot of the same similar traits under underneath as as a mechanical switch does but they feel completely different obviously because the travel is so short things like that so there is some sacrifice there they actually feel like the blade pro se does not feel the greatest to type on those mechanical switches are kind of a pain when you're just typing up an email or you know word processing document however when you're gaming they feel very tactile um far superior to just a regular scissor switch that you'd find on most keyboards so it's kind of like it well if you're gaming a lot then it's worth it if you're mostly typing and taking notes why would you even buy this keyboard or this left up in the first place and it does have a 15.6 inch display which is unfortunately limited to 1080p resolution which granted you'll be able to push the pixels easier and you'll probably get more performance that way however it's just kind of nice to have like I don't know like a 1440p or 4k screen just to get that extra fidelity if you're gonna be you know viewing viewing movies viewing pictures things like that it is nice to have that option because you can always scale down obviously you can't scale up unless you're using like you know super dynamic resolution or whatever 1080 dynamics anybody definitely seems more like a bang for the buck resolution yet then then something that should be on like a flagship product yeah and then the other interesting thing about this laptop is that the trackpad is actually behind the keyboard assuming that Acer is probably guessing that most gamers are going to be connecting a mouse you're not going to be using a trackpad while you're gaming play so jack pads appear trackpad is actually behind the keyboard yeah that's it but it's actually uh coded by a layer of Gorilla Glass the entire thing a trackpad uh or just this I don't know if it extends the whole length but I would imagine I'd imagine probably four lefties and righties right so that you can use it anywhere that's weird and there's no you know like like even there's no like click obviously there's no physical click it's all just like tap to click and stuff it is strange I I'm not sure if I'll if I like that I have to try it out myself to see how much of a pain it is um but I'd rather I'd rather have the IBM nub I'd rather have that yeah nub in the middle deal the IBM feminine yep I was pretty good with the think bad not bad yeah I didn't write it all down yeah I got you man I'm not gonna game with it but sure it seems a little bit more practical than ever to reach up above the keyboard right yeah and I feel like there's a trade-off here because now that you you've moved the keyboard a lot closer to the edge it's almost like you don't get bothered by the edge of the of the laptop like your wrist the you know what I mean there's not as much interference things like then you would need a wrist wrist okay not necessarily sometimes let me have any notice there's there's a decent amount of space right there and any keyboard that you have like I mean not need but if you want if you want to be more gonna I mean that's one of the nice thing about about laptops is that you have built under stressed I'm just say I don't know okay see see that kind of that makes sense but it's that argument sort of goes out the window for me when you consider gaming laptops that especially have these 10 series GPUs that and aluminum chassis that conduct heat very well a little too well so whenever I'm gaming on this the razor blade here for example or the blade Pro it gets super hot and it actually irritates my wrist because it's just too warm after you know 20 30 minutes of gaming it's like a wrist rest that heats up way too much so I actually get very uncomfortable and I almost sometimes wish that the that the keyboard was a little bit closer to the edge but you know obviously we don't know exactly how hot this is going to get under load so that remains to be seen but Paul's wrong I'm right your face goes out the window [Laughter] that sounds uncomfortable but keep your eyes on that it's going to be starting at two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars Oh three thousand dollars starting that's maybe I don't know that if that's for the 1080 model it's probably a ten sixty model which is absurd hopefully it goes down after they realize no one's buying them moving on to the games reports I'm going to go through these relatively quick there's not too much heavy meat here on these articles the first of which is about the Nintendo 2ds thirds lower thirds games report yeah on a well done Nintendo 2ds XL was recently announced by Nintendo and this is going to support some the same the same games as the new 3ds just not in 3d hence the name 2d s it's very self-explanatory this borrows a lot of the features from I don't want to play this Nintendo is gonna fly your video no just move your moving move your mouse mouse cursor over the video the whole time and you know throw off the algorithm totally that's that's how it works okay all right so while Paul's doing that this is going to be using a lot of the same features as the the newer 3ds like the c-stick the amiibo compatible NFC reader and extra processing power so I actually really like the way it looks it looks super clean very very stylish it's using the same familiar clamshell design unlike the original 2d S which was just a really ugly sort as a slate as a sea stick has a C stick hell yeah there's a B those Marines here amiibos read your vows which is awesome everyone loves me bows that don't everyone Paul's got a collection oh hey um this is launching July 28th I remember I should just buy an amiibo to see what it's like see what I'm missing out on you know I'm sure there's like this really great feeling that you get when you get an e building ah yeah see the like yeah sure thing I get it no not at all I'm retailing for a hundred and fifty bucks u.s. very competitively priced on July 28th I would suggest pre-ordering the sucker if you do want one really badly because I guarantee you they're gonna sell out really quick people you want you're gonna art to get this and nuts which okay so here's a difference at first you might think why is Nintendo even releasing another handheld which si to compete directly with the switch it doesn't though because at 150 bucks it's literally half the price of the Nintendo switch so you know you're you're targeting a different audience you're targeting maybe kids who don't need the full you know gamut of features that come with a switch or that you know the titles in that in that area I think that what's keeping the the DS series alive honestly and I've read this in other articles is like the Pokemon franchise Pokemon franchise is like still blowing up like more than it ever has and you know it's it's making it's one of the reasons why these these units are selling out and why they're selling just millions and millions of copies a year so as far as I know there's no like Pokemon game slated for the switch yet and so people who are fans of that franchise which is you know an enormous group of people will probably be flocking to something like the DS you don't think that's coming though uh I mean a Pokemon game IH I I don't know it's hard to say it's hard to say if if Nintendo would do that because then at that point I would they not do that yeah you're right there's no reason for them not to do they haven't done it so far for any of the other like whoa because of recent consoles because for good ones right there's plenty of like you can you can talk a lot of crap on new Nintendo this house in Newton news uh Nintendo Road you say what because they've did a lot of stupid stuff but they do understand on some fundamental level that games have to just be good and they do do a really good job in a lot of situations of just making really good games true and I feel like with something like Pokemon they would hopefully have the understanding that they can't just shit out a Pokemon game yeah make sure that to make sure it's completely functional of course you have to make sure it has some tie-in with the new way that the the switch works and everything like that so III don't doubt that Nintendo would make a Pokemon game for the switch I just think it would be different enough to where it'd be a completely different type of Pokemon game yeah as what you could find on the DS like remember like when the originals like the red and blue versions came out for Pokemon on the Gameboy say do you remember when this happened is Pokemon too oh yeah I forgot you were like you're like an old man or even Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sorry I don't know what else I'm that's so sad that the Pokemon phase escaped you like you didn't grow up with Pokemon no because my hogs in Ekta forties I know you're near like we're like what the fuck is this shit you must have been sinking like the hell are all these kids on about that was a great time man no I was I was Leslie are you sweet enough to wear like I wasn't I was like the older people who are just like I have no idea what the hell is going on like I was able to grasp it to some extent I understood I understood how the appeal of it was in the collection aspect there all that kind of stuff so yeah I understood it and I knew what it was and I didn't think like oh that's lame sure it was just I was older yeah bad not into it completely not the target demographic for for Pokemon at that point so so yeah how do you know where get off my lawn dude crotchety old bastard damn kid um so like what I was saying though like they had the original red and blue versions of the game on Gameboy and it was very much like top-down sort of RPG and then they came out with Pokemon games for the you know them Tendo 64 but they were completely different it was like Pokemon Stadium you know Pokemon snap they were completely different experiences that you could only get on a console at that time which I'm probably guessing is if anything is going to be similar to what Nintendo does here for the switch but I digress as is as is the case of the show but let's move on to our next topic here which is player unknowns battlegrounds just a quick honorable mention here in that this game is currently killing it they are slaying if you will the game entered steam early access on March 23rd and sold 1 million copies by April 10th now one month later less than a month later with 2 million copies sold it has doubled its player base in less than a month holy shit well damn developer blue hole announced that it'll be matching donations up to $100,000 during their first charity invitational like which benefits gamers outreach happening this Thursday May 4th at 9 I am for those of you interested it will feature 32 two-player teams from North America and Europe I'm glad that they have excluded all of the Asians because as as an h1z1 player myself the Asians are just too good they're too good and it's not fair okay the Asians are Opie because you know when you get killed by an Asian because it's just like some like the username like just doesn't make sense or it's like some broken English okay and say that's definitely an Asian person there's no other person it could be and they're just so good and they travel in packs you know they're they're incredibly incredibly talented and gifted and they're a piece of shit you know to all of us gamers who really want to try to win I really like the developers name blue hole blue hole that sounds very just very Clegg being a it set it's so borderline suggestive but not a rabbit it's just a blue hole what there's a hole and it's blue what's wrong with that it's like it's like hasn't that there's nothing I didn't I didn't mention a rim job at all let make that name like this I didn't bring that up why are you why are you asking what the association is with that what time I've video games all of a sudden I just want to like go jerk off you know what the hell's going on here um that's what happens it's it's just very uh I think the name blue hole definitely exploits our dirty minds that's what it does I think maybe that could have been the developers intent those those fucking blue holes mm-hmm exactly cited what it's like I didn't you didn't get back to me last night where were you up to say no more all right well that explains it no details needed all right so congratulations two player unknowns battlegrounds for doing a killer job I'm sure stone also had some nice milestones this month or this week seventy million players they are up to 70 million freaking players up from 30 million in 2015 so just two years later they've more than doubled their player base Wow they also broke a record on top of that for most simultaneous players at one time it didn't specify if this was just for mobile or just all I don't know could be for all time this was after they had just released their journey to Ungaro expansion so that obviously brought a lot of new players and they un'goro crater in Goryeo Bubba and Goro Goro crater un'goro crater yeah I don't know what that means but to celebrate the company is giving players free free card packs from now until the end of May so anyone who logs in to hearthstone will receive three free journey to Ungaro card packs no so I just thought I'd throw that out there I'm sure a lot you guys have already heard about it just in case you didn't you don't want to miss out on those free cards also there's another thing that I would like to bring to your attention this is the last little tidbit that I had four games report today which is a gog gog gog um good ol gog the steam competitor and alternative is do it excuse me is doing a may the fourth sale nice as you might have guessed on

bill the only difference I made was a 1080i if you could have changed anything about to your personal preference what would you have changed about your Mini ITX build that you did recently with the Mini ITX build was it the one in the Lian Li case yeah bless what you put in it uh inferior GPU I mean it was a Z 270 board it was a I don't know I think possibly the motherboard it was as rock board that I used which was functional there are some nicer boards out there that weren't available at the time when I was getting the parts in 8270 I was originally going to use the EVGA Z 270 stinger I think that's pretty nice board it wasn't available when I was getting the parts so I might have considered something like that but I mean functionally that has rack board worked just fine and everything I was good so uh yeah actually honestly one of the changes I would have made is dropping in a 1080 TI instead of 1080 because that was another thing that launched as I was parting it out was a 1080i so I like your option of putting that in there in the founders edition so does my grandfather so cool yeah I'm glad you I'm glad you like that build I thought it was really cool built actually it was really nice missile system there that look that I loved that case leonie cases be I mean if you can get over the price of course as is dead Liam Dennison yeah that's you know full aluminum tempered glass is the quality is pretty top-notch that was a nice nice bill I did enjoy that one and then next up we've got one from Brandon and red and H hidden fried bucks thank very much Paul I saw your 570 X build and I'm interested in the case is the lack of a rear exhaust fan a problem for airflow or should I purchase some 120 as well Brandon I would say that very much depends on the hardware that you have inside that system by and large you should be ok if you have a lot of hardware in there if you've got like a really high-end CPU and you've got like a couple GPUs or something like that then then yeah I would say add the extra exhaust beyond that though there's gaps all over that case since the the tempered glass pieces are held kind of separate from the case itself so I don't think airflow is too much of an issue as long as you've got some decent exhaust you should be fine but like I said if you got a lot of hardware in there then then yeah I would I would add the extra airflow you good to do test to see like you know is there any difference on your CPU thermals or something like that with without an exhaust fan at the back it'd be kind of a cool test nice to test you can always reality check yourself and yes and then there's another one also from Brandon Hinman yes ed not sure if my question was sent in the same question yeah Thank You
