guys give me a sign give me a sign I will check my vitals am I am I here am I here can you see me can you hear me tell me right now how things are looking on your end some I'm gonna go ahead and check the stream here it looks like it looks like I'm streaming just just give me a sign give me a sign I'm waiting for chat to blow up any minute now yes it has begun it has begun loading alright hey dude guys guys and gals mostly gals mostly dudes I know it's a sausage fest in here but that's okay thank you so much for joining this first episode of this first season of booted my user-submitted PC livestream where basically essentially every single month 15 contestants go head-to-head they show off their their rigs which is a very brave thing to do on the internet these days and and I basically just ripped the out of them I just talk on all of them and I give you guys a hard time no I mean I'm gonna do a little bit of that but mostly it's gonna be a fair balance of pros and cons taking a look at the good and bad of each of these systems and by the end of it by the end of each season we will have one winner that's voted essentially by the live audience you guys if you're watching us live yes it's not awesome hardware me if you're watching me live you will vote on one of those 15 contestants to take home the grand prize of a $500 gift card in either the form of a steam or Amazon gift card of their choice so the stakes are pretty high it's kind of like pit my PC with like brass knuckles on you know this isn't there's no more child's play here so first off quick shout out to the to the homies in chat manic geek Steve Cell Ethan all you guys who are regulars thank y'all so much for joining as well as those who I might not recognize as much thank you all for being here it's it's difficult to get to round up the Internet these days to to watch something that doesn't exist yet people have their own agendas and very little attention span so thank you guys so much for the support on this first episode I'm amazed I even got a sponsor for this episode but before we talk about our sponsor why don't we go ahead and tell you what this show is all about because while I'm sure some of you already are very familiar with the concept some of you probably either stumbled upon this video just by chance or someone told you to go watch it and you have no idea what you're doing here so for those those of you who have no no clue why don't we go ahead and talk about how this stream actually works how this show works and I've got a basically a little graphic here and you can see it's already kind of pretty much we've got three brackets we are in week one currently we're currently a week one where we've got five new contestants four of which will get booted off the show by you guys I wipe my hands clean of all you know judge and jury here this is all up to you guys I give my two cents about you know JJ don't sue me I give my two cents about each of these systems but in the end you guys are gonna be the ones voting on which one you feel deserves to win so in week one we've got five contestants we axe off four of them one of them is left remaining as a finalist then we go to week two same thing five new contestants four get booted one more finalist and then week three same deal the third finalist is chosen and then they all go on to week four the final round where those three finalists compete for the grand prize of $500 again we will be taking a look in depth at each of these systems their pros and cons and also in the final round we'll be taking a look at their backside cable management for the first time to kind of reveal like the skeletons in their closet if you will to really kind of I guess like maybe even the odds if there was a neck and neck that might be a determining factor for the voting system it really is all in the hands of the live audience thank you Steve for the dollar donation I maybe we'll all work my way up to taking my shirt off maybe maybe in a future episode because you know you know I am cheap like that that's why that's why Steve's the only one donating right now is because he knows me well enough to know that I'll strip for like a dollar but that's pretty much how it works guys so hopefully that clears things up it's a very simple concept which can be kind of long-winded to explain especially when I explained it not the best at explaining things fluidly but hopefully that graphic helped you out now before we take a look at our five contestants sue contestant number one who's going to be contestant number one on the first episode of the first season well we'll get there but first of all I want to give a huge shout out to today's sponsor actually not just a day sponsor but this month's sponsor which is Fanta X now fantex super cool websites are a super cool website they have a cool website too but they they are a great brand if you guys aren't familiar with fan texts go ahead and push that that you're living under off of your head and open your eyes and and see the Sun and see the sky because fantex is a really great brand they're actually the first vendor that I approached to potentially sponsor this show because I'm a firm believer in their products I use their cases regularly I have my wife system is in an empty we evolved ITX outstanding little mini ITX chassis and I've also built my white build that I assembled a few months ago in their evolved luxe or the enthu luxe excuse me so all around really solid quality stuff you can go ahead and check out their website at fantex com they've also got these new extension cables that they're showing off I actually have a pair a set of these that I haven't really tested out yet but I kind of just took them out of the wrapper and flex them around the really high quality that they have a few limiting options black and white which are really common red also very common and a red and black which I believe we're gonna add some more colors in the future but a good start so far two sleeve cables I don't like how there's ads on the site but that's okay this isn't add it's an ad with an ad ception we're going ad ception right now also their power supply splitter which was really cool they were demoing it demoing it at CES this year in one of their new upcoming dual chassis cases if you don't want to wait for the project nine one six you can check out their end through mini XL DS which has been around for some time now but now with the the power supply splitter you can actually take a single power supply and install into your case and have that power to individual systems which is really great this this case is really really the tits if you asked me because you can do a lot of like pretty much an infinite amount of possibilities with it have like one gaining machine it's a dual its the dual system chassis essentially you have one gaming machine in there as well as like for example a server or or even a stream machine so you can have a perfect combination of things to your liking so thank you so much fantex for pretty much sponsoring this season because honestly that $500 grand prize gift card that's for one of you lucky winners that's that wouldn't be possible without sponsors like fan tech so thank you guys but enough of this jibber-jabber Chimay brush matter and I haven't not been drinking apart from this bottle of wine that's almost empty so why don't we go ahead and take a look at our first contestant of the show my goodness drumroll please and that's not something I need to work on too is getting a sound board for the show so I can do things like drum roll or like a fart noise you know like if I just got to kill time just just mash the fart noise button it'll kill it'll just kill it'll kill bro so let's go ahead and move on to number one PC number one is from Andrew now I'm labeling these pcs by number because that's essentially how you're going to vote on them so if you like this PC you're gonna vote number one and that'll all be like you know more clear when the poll comes out in chat but more on that later so Andrew Andrew Andrew Andrew Andrew Andrew what do you got what do you got for us here so the case is a a fractal define are five white and you know what before we even get into critiquing Andrews build here there's a couple things that I want to say on how I'm actually looking at these systems because for pin my PC it's all about like giving advice if you guys are familiar with pin my PC the little segments that I do with Paul and Paul's Hardware on our show awesome hardware which is on Tuesdays 10 my PC is more like giving suggestions to people who need it right they're there they're seeking our help they're seeking our advice for whatever reason I'll never know why but it's kind of a helpful tutorial type thing Q&A type stuff where you know everyone's having a good time this is different this is like cutthroat I'm gonna be more brutal with things that I see if I if I can point out a flaw or like some kind of inconsistency with your build I'm gonna like chew you out for it I'm gonna like go to town because that's how dramatic this is okay it's not it's not all like friendly hugs and kisses and rainbows all right that's pin my PC it's child's play it's child's play so um just just and also it's it's for theatrics as well don't be offended if you're a contestant and I slam your rig for some you know small point for having a crappy SLI bridge or something which Andrew does we're gonna go ahead and talk about that as well but yeah just just keep that in mind so I'm gonna be talking about the system specs kind of how they mesh together whether or not they're compatible or if they're a good fit for each other it's not necessarily about it's not necessarily about who has the better video card and better CPU guys I'm not gonna be like okay you get extra points for having a 980ti instead of a 970 that's not really what it's about it's like do the the components as a whole match up do you are they are they compatible with each other do they make sense is it a sensible matchmaking of a build so things like that as well as aesthetics of course you got to throw aesthetics in there if it looks like crap I'm gonna dock you points by the way anytime I mentioned points in this series they don't mean anything it's like whose line is it anyway the points don't mean a damn thing but if your rig is ugly as hell I will dock you some points for that so let's go ahead and move on to Andrew with that said okay first of all beautiful case fractal define are five in white not as popular as the traditional black steel but the white is very very attractive and I like that case a lot especially because it's one of those white cases that actually has a painted white interior as well a lot of times you'll see a white case that still has a black painted interior which I feel like if you're gonna go white on the outside you just go white on the inside too and I know that sounds a bit racy but it's totally not I swear so okay I'm cool with the case why don't we go ahead and take a closer look at the side here and also examine some of his internal hardware we've got an andy FX 8320 very it's an older chip but still can can crank out some some decent performance CPU cooler as a beat quiet dark rock Pro 3 now this thing is massive I can't even see what his his dims look like his RAM configuration because this thing is just huge but I've read so many good reviews on it it's just unanimously awesome across the board so good choice on that it also matches your black and white thing quite well instead of getting like a chromatic heatsink for example I think that was a smart choice on your part an excellent performance all-around motherboard is an MSI and 3 plus SLI crate Edition a nice little budget board there 12 gigabytes of EVGA 1866 ram again I can't really see it but I'll take your word for it and we've got two video cards in here guys they're both GTX 950 s but they are of different manufacturer varieties we've got a PNY that's the one on the bottom and then an EVGA GTX 950 on top so that leads me to believe that you probably had one of them first you probably had the EVGA one first for example and then you kind of stumbled across the the second one there and just happened to be like maybe you've got a really good deal on it you weren't really expecting to go SLI in this bitch but just happen that way and that's why they don't match and more on that later you've got a 120 gig SSD SanDisk 240 gig crucial I wrote 240 gig twice on the crucial that does not mean it's 480 gigs that is strictly a typo hard drive you got a WD blue one tear but you got some WD in there how are their hard drives and of course there are M 650 watt power supply ok so take a look at this picture Andrew here my thoughts here the pros ok I'm diggin the black and white I think that's a solid classic choice you can't really go wrong with black and white these days however there are a couple things no I'm not gonna talk about the cons yet we're just doing pros black and white solid for the most part you've done a bang-up job of color coordinating things like I said the black on your CPU cooler as well as the sleeved extensions are really nice the cable management here is pretty clean for the most part I like how you took the 2 PCIe cables and kind of strung them together you kind of like you know mesh them together tied them down with a zip ties and whatnot I think that's a really good choice it looks really clean used black SATA cables for your data I think that's also a wise choice altogether it looks like you clean this either regularly or you built it recently because it looks pretty spotless from from this angle anyway but there's there's a couple things that I did want to point out that I was like huh I don't know I don't know about that the first of which being this fan cable that is braided so that's nice but it's kind of just dangling on top of your top video card there and I feel like you just kind of ran it across your system it was like you kind of like did a kool-aid man where you're just like I have a cable and it's just gonna plow through my entire system I don't care how it gets there but it's gonna just plow through everything until it reaches the the header that I want to plug it into that's kind of what you did here oh yeah but I think it would have been better had you gotten like some kind of extension for that for that cable and maybe routed it behind your motherboard tray and then up through your CPU grommet and then down between your rear exhaust fan and that CPU cooler to discreetly plug into that header I don't know just a thought because this is probably the sloppiest part of your system here the other thing I don't know if you can tell really really really well here maybe this is a better picture yes you can see that sli bridge that I briefly alluded to earlier it's yes don't do it I don't like it it's it's copper ish color I mean I know you have to have it but I mean they come in black man they come in but just get a black one cuz that is no bueno I'm sorry that is just not I don't like you here Lera move the specs really quick so you can see oh oh no I mean honestly it's has it's just an aesthetic thing Oh God goodness the thing is your view we're going so strong in the black and white theme but that that crossed though the sorry the SLI bridge kind of kills it as well as that power supply sticker for that matter very easy to peel those things off get a heat gun or even just you know do it the wrong way and just use your fingers and stand there for an hour to peel it off but I think changing those two things would have really helped your overall black and white theme here and I think that might dock you some points with the audience again points don't matter I can only just say what I want to say but all together all together man a solid solid build and that's why you are contestant number one of this here episode so why don't we go ahead and move on to Akash and sorry if I'm butchering your name Akash Akash but I apologize I'm not that culturally diverse but hey you've got a really cool system here it's a Corsair 200 R which is a very great budget case mind you but still has kind of like it's a it's like a it's like a super budget case where it can still do well in the realm of like a mid-range system and by the way I probably forgot to mention this at the very beginning of this episode guys but this is a mid-range season so all the all the contestants all the rigs you're gonna be seeing for the month for this month are basically mid-range and I didn't really categorize builds based on price because prices are not very stable they fluctuate constantly so it was more just kind of an overall judgment that I had to make on a per per case basis or a persistent basis if you will so keep that in mind I'm not gonna have budget systems competing against high-end water-cooled builds so for the month of February these are all mid-range let's go back and check out the rest of the cash is built here so of course there are 200 are let's take a look at the side profile alright so what do we got going on here we've got an Intel Core i5 6500 which is a non cased you you've got a cooler master now I didn't know you didn't mention which which cooler this was it's not a 212 Evo be because I can just tell from the shape of the the the heatsink there but it is something equivalent it's kind of in that same that same tier of cooler probably similar price range and things like that you've also got a gigabyte h1 70 gaining three no I like your your choice of motherboard and CPU here because you you definitely had it in mind to cut down on costs by not going with a case q chip from Intel and you knew you knew ahead of time that that meant you didn't really need like a z170 motherboard or a board that supported overclocking so you went with H 170 to save a bit more change I think that's a really nice pair up so you definitely get some points for me for that you've got one eight gig stick of G scale 2133 I honestly would have liked to see some dual channel memory in there especially I mean mainly for performance to take advantage of that that that ability but also for aesthetics in a way - it kind of looks a little lonely there with just one dim sticking out it looks like he lost his friend you know and adds nothing I hate more than a lonely dim it's just the world just looks a little dim when I'm sorry I'm sorry moving on you've got an asus strix gtx 960 4 gig version ok awesome card I love the Strix coolers they're very effective super quiet you've also got a Seagate one terabyte hard drive no SSD in this case unless you just forgot to mention it but it doesn't look like you have an SSD in here either there's probably no room there's definitely no room behind the motherboard tray for an SSD at least natively unless you did some velcro ee stuff but it looks like you only have those two hard drives and there's only two SATA cables coming out of your SATA ports on your motherboard so no SSD here but that's ok and of course err CX 430 so you kind of did a mishmash here a mash-up of really budget parts combined with more mid-range parts and I think I I really like the way you did it because you knew where to cut corners in a system you knew that you could save a lot of money on a power supply and a case for example to spend a little bit more money on a CPU and a graphics card and I think that really shows here with your system and we've got a few more pictures here you got a money shot there as far as like you know your color scheme you don't really have one I mean I guess it's kind of like black and red but the power supply just kind of because you're stuck with those hideous ketchup and mustard cables that we that we always love to point out in on awesome hardware so there's not much you can do about that honestly it'd be pointless to get like sleeve extensions for this thing just because I mean what are you gonna do there's there's hardly any room behind the motherboard tray just gonna have more cable clutter in the end so maybe in the future getting a better power supply cuz that's really not doing you any favors in the looks department honestly here's another side profile okay yeah I mean altogether a pretty solid build but you know that there are certain things that do need to be worked on as far as the aesthetics again the power supply and the white SATA data cables aren't killing me I mean they're killing me a little bit they're not killing me a lot but I feel like they would blend in a lot better with black if you just had straight black cables cuz you don't really have too many white components here in this system so I think that would have been a wise choice but altogether thank you a cash for year submission why don't we go ahead and move on to PC number three here we go alright this is Mason Mason is in an in win 703 now I don't have much experience at all with this case I have seen it in person it does look fairly decent I haven't read too many reviews on either but it does have a black and red color scheme this particular model so let's go ahead and see what you did with the inside if that kind of corresponds and yes it does for the most part you've got a an AMD FX excuse me Oh AMD FX 6350 well that was stuck at CPU cooler is a corsair h 75 you've got an msi 970 gaming motherboard 16 gigs of hyper x ram you didn't really specify the speed but we do see that there are four sticks in there so you got four by four which is nice GPU is an msi r9 380 and a data SP 120 gig SSD WD blue one terabytes hard drive in a roswell arc 650 watt power supply so r9 380 excellent choice for a mid-range system I think the 6350 is also a great choice for a mid-range computer you can definitely get some nice overclocks with that especially with the cooler that you have on there so I think wise choice in hardware selection overall and it looks like you have plenty of room in this case for all of your components it doesn't look like you have like too much room and it doesn't look too tight either so well balanced in terms of spatial awareness there the power supply seems to be the weak link in a lot of these builds so far because you've got Rosewill which okay though they're kind of hit and miss in my opinion in terms of hardware and stuff when it comes to reliability it is 80 plus certified this arc power supply here and while it while it does seem reliable it is also of the ketchup and mustard variety when it comes to cables and I think that that should just not exist anymore manufacturers need to stop doing that and people should stop buying power supplies with that with those cables if they send a message to manufacturers everywhere no I'm getting too into crazy like in over my head right now but yeah that's the that's the thing that kind of kills it for me also that fan on the bottom the fan on the bottom is almost as hideous as the sticker on your power supply and it's really not the fan honestly the fan just looks bad because it's got that horrible cable wrapped around it it's that yellow cable ooh that's just repulsive but that being said your cable management altogether is pretty good for for the case that you have honestly you don't have like the best cable routing options in the the the 703 but I think you did a pretty fair job and there's another money shot here we can get a closer look you know even though your cables aren't pretty like your 24 pin and even this god-awful clear wire that's for your fan looks like a fan header right there even though those are pretty awful it still looks like you executed the the cable routing quite well so points for you on that to my brother but of course I think there could be some much-needed improvement for aesthetics the things I already mentioned here's a nice LED shot of of your system powered on and you went with red of course of course I'm glad you went with red but what I like about this too is that you kind of have three different light sources you have multiple light sources you it looks like you've got an RGB LED strip no not RGB sorry a red LED strip at the top of your case I can kind of see some LEDs peeking out there as well as an LED fan at the front and that ugly one at the bottom which looks much better when it's lit up like that and I think this kind of provides a nice even glow for all your components as opposed to just one LED strip on one side of your case you know giving some really harsh lighting on one hat like one side of your components but leaving the rest of it in the dark I think this is a really nice well lit and evenly lit system with the LEDs on so good on you good on you mate for that and then we've got this other picture this is this I found interesting because I let you guys send me two optional photos of your choice and you decided to send me a picture of the back of your case which you're the only submission you're the only guy I got who was like you know what I'm sending him my rear you know maybe you're just into rears I don't know I'm not gonna judge but you know maybe you wanted to show off the three badass antennas that you got there on your tp-link Wi-Fi adapter right maybe that is what's gonna win this competition for you but all together pretty clean I like it there's not much else I can say you've installed everything correctly from this picture so thank you very much Mayson for that let's go ahead and move on to number four candidate number four we are getting close to deny to the end close to the end folks with Luke I am your father and this rig is your baby I am sure cuz it's a it's pretty sexy Luke it's pretty sexy I like what you've done here in the NZXT h 440 white edition again one of those great white cases that has a white painted interior very popular as well let's go ahead and take a closer look at the inside here Luke you've got a Core i5 4690k okay NZXT Kraken X 61 that's an AO and yeah it looks like you've got your two fans in the push configuration right there exhausting some holiday off the top there good and then your motherboard is an MSI z97 s SLI crate excellent 16 gigs of teen group elite memory looks like you've got two dims in there you didn't specify but it looks like you've got two dims so eight gigs a piece very nice and then you've got an ATI Radeon r9 265 now this was kind of interesting because you have a pretty a pretty powerful core i5 chip in there that is unlocked and you've probably overclocked it based on the cooler that you have there as well but you've got this very entry-level kind of budget card and if your CPU with anything less if you were like on a you know a 6300 or something I would have put you into the budget category instantly but because you had this like kind of mishmash of hardware I just threw you in here with the with the mid-range especially like given the case and other factors you know put me made me to believe that you should be in the mid-range category so I'm guessing that you're probably not using this for for much hardcore gaming because you probably can't with that kind of card so essentially you're either just browsing the web and watching blu-rays or not blu-rays but you're watching doing a lot of media streaming and playback where you don't really need to tax the video card all too much or that's a temporary solution and you're you know you're just sitting on some some dough to save up for a better card but you know as long as you're not doing any hardcore gaming if you're trying to do hardcore gaming with this then I'd say it's a bad setup but you know honestly I don't think that's the case I think you're just your gaming needs aren't really typical for the average PC gamer so I think that's fine I'm not gonna dock you any points there that's just something that I wanted to mention the other thing is you've got another again a beautiful black and white color theme here cable management looks pretty on point we can go ahead oh but but but there's a little bit of the PCIe cable that's kind of hanging down going into that bottom cut out of the h4 40 I would have liked to see it just a little bit tighter had you put like a zip tie around it to instead of just kind of let it water fall down into the the the routing hole there I think that would look a lot cleaner cuz it just looks a little bit looks a little bit messy quite honestly but um altogether I like your I like your SSD right there looks very nice let's go ahead and take a look at your money shot here get a closer look at your video cards definitely a budget card but you know what everything's pretty clean I like how all your fans are also matching your rear exhaust fan your your to radiator fans are also very matchy-matchy kind of just gives a really cohesive look to to the rig as a whole and then we've got another shot with your side panel on okay and now we can also see that you've got some white LEDs I believe I did see a strip that's kind of on the right side if we take a look again one more time here wait sorry you can kind of see that there's an LED strip right on the the hard drive cage wall you can barely see it there but when it's lit up you can kind of see the LEDs like the the glare of the LEDs through the window and I think I think you intentionally took the picture at this angle so that we would have a harder time seeing the LEDs inside your case and I think in order for LEDs to really be pulled off well into a case they shouldn't be visible from the side panel window from where you're standing at any point unless you like at a super extreme angle they shouldn't be that visible and I think there's kind of a little bit too much LED reflection here there's there's too much LEDs showing in this particular case and and you can even see it amplified here again this is also what I was talking about where I believe it was either Mason or a cash one of them had really nice it was just Mason I think had really nice even lighting around his case and this is kind of what I was talking about where a lot of times you just have one LED strip in one region of your chassis and it kind of just it casts a lot of harsh shadows on your components which doesn't look all that great it looks much nicer with it with a lot of even lighting so I might have duck you some points on that but the the the effort is definitely receiving an A in this category so thank you very much Luke for your age for 40 built here and finally we are moving on to Errol Errol I hope I'm pronouncing your name right as well Errol's got a very nice system here with an NZXT phantom 410 this is actually the red I'm sorry the red I'm currently colorblind at the moment in other news this is the white and blue version which I'm not a huge fan of but when you take a look at the side here you can kind of see that he's done a fair job of matching components fairly well here everything from the the PCIe are the expansion slots which I believe you've spray-painted blue which is actually a very accurate blue to the the that you find in the chassis so I think that's a smart choice that was well done on you and also the the RAM there so let's just take a look at the specs we've got an Intel Core i5 6500 hyper 212 Evo a-coz 170 K now I have an issue here because you've got a z170 board but a non case Q on your CPU so I don't know you you what what was the point I guess other than maybe aesthetics or other features that you might get with a z170 chipset I mean one of the main features the the main feature of z170 is overclock abilities so without being able to do that on your current chip I feel like that's a bit of a wasted a wasted decision or a wasted component there so that's that that would definitely dock you some points on on my end and you've also got the g.skill ripjaws 5 it didn't specify how many gigs or the capacity of each of those dims I would guess either 8 or 16 and MSI r9 380 very nice little budget card there as well as the Samsung 850 Evo didn't specify the capacity and a Seagate one terabyte hard drive and a corsair CX 600 M now Errol Errol Errol it looks like you went to great lengths at kind of tailoring this build to meet a certain look to pull off a certain aesthetic and I feel like if you really wanted to drive at home drive the theme home you could probably afford to get either sleeved black sleeved extensions or blue sleeved extensions with the same shade of blue that you have already going on and ripping off that power supply sticker immediately or getting a new power supply altogether maybe saving that CX model as a backup for example in case you need it for a rainy day or for another system down the line but that ketchup and mustard is just staring at me it's like it's like right in the middle of your system - it's like the butthole of your rig and usually the butt hole folks is the ugliest part of a person's butt so yeah there's that you also have a money shot here money shot is kind of dark this is probably as dark as I will accept for my my PC submissions on booted but I did I did the blush so okay I can't really see too much here but it looks like everything's routed pretty nicely for the most part so altogether there are a couple things missing that I would like to see here Errol but a valiant effort all around and holy smokes guys I think that's all five the first five contestants of this here series so wow that that won by I don't know that go by quickly or slowly that will greatly determine whether or not this is good or this is a good show so at this point we're gonna quickly recap each of the systems I'm just gonna quickly like for 5-10 seconds recap each of the builds so it's fresh in your mind who we're all voting for and then of course we're gonna put it to a vote so let's go ahead and take a look at PC number one pretty soon number one was Andrew okay there's PC number one now we've got PC number two a cash and his Corsair two hundred are with the 6500 and his Strix gtx 960 full gigabyte they've got mason number three this is number three now remember the numbers that correspond to each of these pcs guys cuz that's how you will be voting on them as by their number so you got mason at number three you've got Luke at number four this is PC number four and then finally we just took a look at Ariel's PC number five all right guys so right about now you should be seeing a link pop up in chat that my beautiful wife Heather who's in the other room currently watching the stream should be pasting into chat furiously right now if she's paying attention honey I hope you are and at that point you guys should click that link and vote on which of these pcs you think it deserves to go on to the final round in week four remember these are the five pcs that you're voting on I've got some thumbnails right here so you can get a side profile of the five that we talked about with their corresponding numbers so again if you thought you know this PC was the best you're gonna vote for number three and so forth now don't don't vote in chat you're going to - wait you're gonna have to wait for the link to come out and I'm replying to people who are you know cuz the stream difference the time difference whatever so while you guys are voting I'm gonna give you guys a little bit of time to think about it now remember that all the things that I told you about think about the hardware layout the specifications did the did the components make sense not just which one had the the highest performing components it's really not about that guys it's really about the computer as a whole so judge it as a whole be smart about it you guys have probably built a PC or two in your time maybe some of you sure some of you have built more than I have so think about all facets of the PC build before you just go ahead and vote on whichever one you think is the prettiest or the most expensive but in the meantime while you guys are thinking very carefully and analytically about your votes we're gonna go ahead and take one more look at our sponsor for today which is again fantex go ahead and check them out at fantex dot-com dan text dat can gas and check out all the cool stuff that they've got going on her her alright so they're empty and through pro em as a budget case very very nice if you're trying to get into the enthu line of chassis x' and one kind of that feature-rich experience but don't really have the budget to fork out so it's kind of a kind of a nice entry-level way of getting into that that that line of chassis but also the the fantex crew was telling me just earlier today that they are pretty much launching a RGB LED strip and sorry for what's going on right here they're launching an RGB LED strip that's gonna be compatible with the asus rog formula 8 or I'm sorry the Maximus 8 formula which as many of you guys know will have like a built in header on the bottom of the motherboard for you to connect an RGB LED strip and then you can therefore then control that strip or those strips in the ORA software so fantex just alerted me today that they're gonna be coming out with one of those now they didn't really have any documents to give me in time for the show that i could show you so i don't have any actual pictures of the strip or what its gonna look like but so i took it upon myself to create my own ad for the RGB LED strip from fantex so here's my add new I have a bunch of experience in advertising and marketing I worked at Newegg for a few years in their video department so I know about how to make a strong and and selling ad that really speaks to the audience so this is what I have it's a new RGB LED strips from fantex supported by asus rog maximus I actually put seven but it's it's eight that's all part of the marketing thing you know throw people off make them think no man that's really supposed to say eight you know that's good marketing the Maximus eight formula and Ora software and here you can see the board sporting his brand new RGB LED strip from fantex and you can see the RGB color the colors are just shooting out because it's just that it's just that powerful and magical so that is my ad that that fantasy actually paid for so thank you fantex again so much for sponsoring this go ahead and follow him on Twitter I know they're not super active on Twitter these days but maybe if you give them some love at fantex they might start updating more frequently or something like that so thank you so much fantex now now then what am i doing where we going here I think that's enough time for you guys to put in to input your votes so on that note why don't we go ahead and take a look at who our first finalist is and some of you probably already know because you just look at the results cuz you're all cheaters that's no fun guys it's no fun you should vote and just close your eyes and wait for me to reveal who the winner is I shouldn't say a winner cuz you're not the winner this episode you're the finalist here you're a finalist you're just one cog and a bunch of a bunch of wheels alright anyway let's go ahead and take a look at our freakin straw poll cuz I am I'm actually curious I already have my vote I already kind of know who I would vote for but you never know you never know I could be wrong I hope I am wrong I hope you guys have a mind of your own and I hope we're different people I don't know what I'm talking about so which PC ladies and gentleman should go on to the final round in week four let's go ahead and take a look at the results now whoever is at the top of the straw poll as soon as I click results will be the winner you guys ready drumroll and the finalists from week one yes PC number four Wow okay PC number four by quite a landslide actually 55 votes 52 percent of you over half of you guys voted for PC number four that's okay interesting I might have seen that coming because PC number four was a very formidable system quite robust I think he executed a lot of things very well here cable management for won a very strong theme with nothing standing out right things like ketchup and mustard kale was I think that probably docked a lot of people a lot of points in certain aspects but also you just had a very strong build all together and I like the fact that you guys voted for Luke's build even though he had an R 9 to 65 in there because the last thing I wanted was for people to vote based on how awesome the video card or CPU was or a combination of both so thank you guys for voting honestly and openly and smartly for this this first episode I hope that kind of philosophy continues throughout the series and Luke congratulations I don't know I'm still showing this stupid thing congratulations Luke you are our first finalist for the series for season one of booted and we will be seeing you again
