2019-03-13
that sounds smart sure good good job X foot yeah thanks for doing that very helpful don't ruin our stream all right oh wait are we used for me to both now you know right we're gonna bed right in this time frame right about you can't give or take in a second or two all right hey I'm going everyone welcome back this is awesome hardware episode 180 hi guys side B if you missed side a check it out on Paul's half or on Paul's channel youtube.com slash Paul's Hardware you can find like in my video description below if you're joining us on Twitch then hello good to see you guys again this is a live show that we do every single Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time right here on twitch.tv slash awesome hardware as well and we'll be doing an after party at the end of this half to go over all the donation comments that you guys have been giving us throughout the show and Johnson & Johnson's as well for our respective I don't know bad stuff doors to buy stuff from the speaking of stores my store is big with tech that you can now you can buy lots of merchandise here mugs glasses mouse pads sweaters sunglasses mugs there's there's lots of stuff here decals and there's still fidget spinners that are still fitted spinners this is like three years I'm gonna I'm gonna email John and ask him how many agents Ben ever loved because it's in the single digits really wish I had sold all those when the Fed was still going strong well that's something that just like climate is bad just immediately just nobody you never hear about him anymore I'm so glad I didn't double down on your shipments there and then Paul store is Paul's Harbor yeah he's got a lot of stuff as well including a brand new t-shirt new designer shirt mug and he's gonna sweaters and stuff with this design some captive thumbscrew design everyone go pick one up look at how lean how sad he looks well good thumbscrews doing hard time hard super heart stealer wondering wonder way is in for heart of Steel it's probably in for screwing and screwing too hard without consent that's that's probably true it's good thing using an isolate itself alright and thank you to our good friend speaking of cells cell processing and chats the guys are rating appreciate you we love you and I don't know spider fans here head of yes I wanted to give a shout-out to Britta who did the design for that shirt there I will done you can find her on Facebook terror bunny studios just wishes an awesome name twofer reminds me of a money price on the evil bunny yes alright so we've got some news to talk about gun my half as well starting with the sort of the the one that's been taking over all the tech sites lately about Nvidia going to by Israel's mellow know and I'm sorry did I mention we have a laser-guided show drinking that's a block remind occasional adult language yep both of those lost goes great late I'm gonna kill this and then drink my own great weight mm-hmm so Nvidia like I was saying is set to buy Mellanox which is a data center company therefore they're based in Israel but they're they're about to buy them for 6.8 I'm still ready six point nine billion dollars it's a clear thing some sources say six point nine so they're rounding and some people are just saying flat seven I think when you're in the billions whatever seven billion it's about seven billion dollars that's a hundred thousand dollars know a lot more than that but the difference between six point eight and six point nine billion Oh hundred thousand every I'm saying who's like goes it's like yeah it's just a couple blocks pocket change yeah right I'm chained right there it's like sorry are you sure 200k let me dig in the couch cushions all venmo the rest you so they beat Nvidia actually beat out Intel's bid you don't Intel if that's a big like you know it's notch in your belt we Intel Jensen flexing right there Jensen's dick just got two inches bigger so this is basically to help boost the company's two data center business that's a hundred million Thank You Chet oh wait my math skills are horrible well you're being serious I thought you were joking I thought you were saying I thought you really don't remember math skills were so horrible just say yes by three digits I didn't correct you can I thought it was intentional I was like yeah very funny you're right it was intentional go home Paul you're drunk hashtag why Paul chat that's why I'm bad at business okay so this is this is a CNBC article that we're pulling up here they actually got on the phone with Jensen and a quote from him said the data centers become the most important computer in the world the thing that's really exciting is that the computer no longer starts and ends at the server the computer in the future would extend into the network and what we want to do is we want to extend our computing reach from the server where we are today out to the entire data center so we're trying to make it interconnected Lee you know just enough by acquiring a company like Mellanox they they acquire something they don't necessarily have which is years and years of experience of data center activity and and growth so this is sort of a way to fast-track them in that realm to help them with I mean any number of things i mean AI and deep learning all that stuff machine learning as well as potentially what i would care most about is like video games streaming like could this fast-track them with their geforce now program things like that so it's still unclear exactly how nvidia is going to take advantage of this acquisition but it seems like it's going through it seems like it's happening the deal is expected to close by the end of 2019 and the shares for both companies are up so if you're into trading stock or anything then you should be happy or sad about that depending on how you've been handling that but yeah 7 billion dollar acquisition from an video was you weren't sure ting Nvidia yes should be fine can't shit baby catch that stock out yeah all right let's move on Intel cascade Lake and cascade Lake X set first at four Computex debut this is from how hard we're featuring a leak from chip L member Momo suggesting that cascade Lake is pegged for an April launch that's right around the corner and then cascade Lake X would be unveiled at Computex in late May early June which I'll be going to so maybe I can confirm that to you guys yeah Momo suspects that LGA 36:47 which is using a more or less xeon socket and cascade lake with LGA 2066 that would be cascade like X they're expected to arrive first and these will these bowl of course friable AMD's upcoming 7 nanometre rise and chips and rise and thread river trips potentially that we mentioned earlier so exciting there's not a lot to write on here other than cascade lake is is a thing it's it's the natural cascade Lake X is the natural successor to skylake X I hope they don't I hope they've learned their lesson from sky like X and they don't have like weird skis that don't make sense and try to segment their CPUs and motherboards into into categories that that don't really that don't really make sense like what they did with KB like X so they don't yeah they're they're still gonna do that but why they couldn't have sold many KB like X CPUs isn't this the platform that they were supposed to wash the W 3175 on by the end of 2018 that's the dontist chip right the one that yeah yeah I think you're I think I think 28 core yes right so as part of the that would be LGA 3647 it just seems odd to me that they're now saying like April launch for cascade Lake LGA 3647 isn't that already launched or was it just I don't know just a few samples that have been sent around to leichter Bower and and I think that's what it was it doesn't ever have like a paper lon like an official launch date behind it it was just kind of yeah Sam's I mean I've complained about that we've mentioned yeah that that like they were like all right watching this badass 5 you know 5 gigahertz capable processor by the end of 2018 yeah which they can it it but like you can't you could use mine where I won no income no I was already who anyway just just it's got to point that out when this comes up because it was promised much earlier anyway at the same time I don't think it's necessarily I think cash gave like X is gonna be what most people have their eyes on probably just because it's gonna be buggy that's much more practical the mother bird probably won't cost $1,800 what's the Dominus extreme yeah it's like yeah to lose two grand something like that yeah you won't need a thousand dollar case to say out of English people's range yeah but the context so look forward to that so potentially it's early as April if you're interested in the Z on side of things and then Computex we should be hearing more information about cascade Lake X high-end desktop platform successor to skeletons fun okay I next up we have an article from overclocked 3d net about the GTX 1660 non ti that actually going to be releasing soon it's apparently a appeared in an Ashes of the singularity benchmark chart ah this is a rumor to arrive very soon it's the lowest price it will be allegedly the lowest price Turing GPU yet and this first performance leak that we're getting is thanks to tomb at the sack to map Zack to map a sack revealing the cards GP performance in in this in this title the results of course everyone wants to know this was tested in the extreme preset at 10 P the GTX 1660 scored 5700 points which is about 600 points behind the 1660 TI but also 500 points above the gtx 1060 which is of course a pascal card so it seems to sit if these are removed if these rumors are to be true it seems to sit just between a gtx 1060 and a gtx 1660 TI with the rumored price the rumored launch price of $219 that actually makes it a pretty compelling option considering that's relatively on the low end of what you could get a gtx 1066 gigabyte card for so if you're getting you know a decent chunk of performance for the same price then then all is good but again don't know if these are true we when they came out with the 1660 TI i was like no way is there gonna be just a 1660 that's insane I mean I'm joking of course I'd be like as if they came out with like predator 2 and they're like wolf there's no predator but before they came out with predator in it was there gonna be a predator or like Star Wars Episode 4 yeah yeah I guess no possible way a 1 or 2 could be coming so the you know logic would dictate that a 1660 exists yeah and they want you to know if this is true then people who have 1660s should disconnect from the internet when they're running benchmarks if they don't want to map a sec to pull their benchmark results up and indeed make an article on the internet whatever they do maybe they want the glory that could be could be my eternal glory there's also been some pictures leaked just to you know put the nail in the coffin for yeah this this GPU is definitely real unless of course all these images are shopped but it doesn't look to be that way it's hard to say really this is from overclocked 3d don't notice well these are all MSI cards and they seem to be using the same coolers that are based on their RT GTX 1660 TI cards so I'm not much changed but you can see sort of the 1660 branding on on the box alright but I thought you could maybe not but you've got the gaming X model which is gonna be the sort of flagship from MSI and then is that an armor I forget what they're calling but they're cheaper cars probably armor superb I don't know I don't know what they call it cards yeah neither do I haven't even fought yet but the articles there I personally think that the gaming X cards look really nice I have a 1660 ti oh yeah that was just sent to me and it looks it looks really nice it's got an RGB it's - it's tasteful though you know it's tasteful RGB and unplastered the implementation is really good there's no like LED hotspots or anything and the cool adjusting is well built it seems doesn't seem cheap at all they are a little vertically like why they come up a little bit more than some cards do so yes that can be in very small cases of potential conflict but mm-hmm you can see it's got a single 8 pin now you say a connector as well so hopefully we'll get to hear more about that later it's expected to launch March 14th allegedly so keep your eyes peeled that's in two days holy smokes alright next up we've got an article from hexxus this is a pretty quick one it's about the Galaxy S 10 particularly its face unlock feature that allows for a human face to unlock your phone being hacked very easily they actually implemented or embedded a unbox therapy video where Lou actually demonstrates his Galaxy S 10 being unlocked by simply pulling up another phone playing his YouTube video oh of his face it's really just like a close-up shot of his face and it's moving like his face his moods video he hasn't posited he's actually moving and it's not like the most crystal clear shot of his face either and he just puts one phone up to the the galaxy s10 and it unlocks it with with little to no effort whatsoever so unfortunately no one really has access to unbox therapy videos so I think oh yes some of the most obscure and hard to find videos on the web yeah there it is so he just unlocked the phone with another phone using public YouTube video and like you just move around those fingerprints those fingerprints on the screen there's shit in the way come on like there's literally like it's come on Sam's it's virtually pointless to have this as a feature and it's virtually it's potentially irresponsible because well Samsung does give you a little prompt when you opt in for the face unlock feature it does say this is not the most secure option if you want full security or better security we suggest the fingerprint scanner it's still like what is the point of it oh if you could literally unlock it that easily do you only mean like is it just a marketing thing for non techie people to be like ooh that looks cool and futuristic I'm gonna buy it but then get potentially reamed in the a sport for using it when when you know they lose their phone or somebody is able to invade their privacy so easily even if you're not a big youtuber like glue I mean most people have pictures of them all over the internet whether it's Facebook or Twitter or Instagram you know and if you can just take some shoddy video and unlock his phone so easily I mean it could be done anywhere there's also been reports of face and lock being compromised with people using photos and sometimes not even of the person whose phone it is sometimes it's just someone who looks like them or a relative or someone who doesn't even really look like them so basically it's it's useless it's scary it's a useless feature that the little prompt that Samsung brings up when you're about to use it I don't think is enough if they should they should probably just disable it I would think if it's that because because there are some people who are gonna be stupid enough to you thinking it's safe and ignoring the the prompt which you know it is their fault if their phone gets hacked you should have been smarter about it but not everyone's not everyone like I don't know it's weird phones should only unlock with a drop of blood it needs like direct DNA each unlock requires a bloodsucker yes yeah it does it does a DNA check that's the only way to truly be secured a built-in finger prick like it like a little needle that just goes and just pricks your finger you said put on the sensor you'd be UV secure except for against the scrolls the scrolls win cuz they do they replicate the DNA one day hey are you talking about this uh Captain Marvel guy Captain Marvel this weekend guys that's good as today elected to ya straight damn sprawls um Larry where was I so DNA replication that's all DNA replication on that note we'll move on to the next door this articles from kick dirt it's about this should have been in a hot and heavy hardware type of segment but I didn't have enough hot maybe hardware to talk about so here it is news this is about asus rog Strix XG 49 vq it is a 49 inch super ultra wide damn gaming monitor where as the image where's the image like it guru other it is sorry such as loves taking its time to load so wow that's substantial so it's a 38 40 by 1080 which is damn full HD as well it's an HD right there 144 Hertz we've seen motor 780 right it's dudes dual 10 1869 says the side by side alright and like I don't people like I understand people people say this is way too big of a monitor but yet you put 2 1080 panels side-by-side and no one bats an eye so it's really not that bad I don't think it's that bad but I still do understand why people might not want a 1080 court like vertical pixels it might look a little squished again everyone's got the preference you know 144 hurts though meaning that this is really tailored for a gaming audience and there's there's a bunch of features packed in here they're really trying to push Asus is really trying to push HDR here with this panel living up to the HDR standard there's a proprietary backlight technology that incorporates additional LEDs to sort of serve as a light guide that there's like a light guide another proprietary light guide film that increases the overall brightness so you have a lot more nits than you otherwise would while you're using HDR so it doesn't mean you have HDR you have that nice contrast and breadth of colors but you're not really compromising on luminosity there's a smart HDR tech built-in that offers a bunch of preset modes and can automatically change your display configured in your display for the best possible HDR output depending on the scenario if you're watching a movie playing a game aces shadow boosts game plus hotkeys for quick access to ingame enhancements a lot of these features sort of near that gigabyte the gigabyte panel that just came out because the the one that we saw it see yes like for instance there's a built-in crosshair overlay option which other monitors have done in the past as well there's an on-screen timer you get an FPS counter and an ultra-low blue light filter there's and this can all be controlled via the the asus display widget which i think i think that's built-ins of the monitor and stuff so it would technically free up your system resources weight you can control the monitor with the monitors controls that's apparently this black magic I know it's amazing I don't really understand it's launching this month apparently for a thousand pounds in the UK what what's a thousand pounds that's like 1,300 US maybe yes Cal that is 1307 dollars and 59 I know my United States Dollars there it is if you're looking at nine we're British pounds sterling I guess the other reason for 3840 by 1080 and not making it a 1440p panel is that it's potentially easier to drive yeah with like a single high end GPU I think that's a lot of a big reason why they do it it it's it's expensive I mean if those shoe boxes a lot for somebody to drop but that one's gonna love it but it does seem like they're hitting some some pretty nice points some pretty nice spec points yeah it comes to a gaming monitor ultra wide monitors are really really fun to play games on if the game supports it so that's that's one thing to keep in mind not all games like overwatch for example you can't play at all you can plan I'll try but it it crops sixteen by nine yeah yeah the high refresh rate at the HDR I think this yeah I'm sure there's gonna be some interest in that so cool and then the last article here is from ARS technica just a brief mention this doesn't this isn't super PC related at all but you just wanted to say Bandersnatch I just like this I just like the word Bandersnatch and I also watch the frabjous spenders net and they should shut your Bandersnatch right now so I say the wife used us every night so Netflix is planning to make more interactive shows like Bandersnatch because it was it was such a hit if you guys aren't familiar Bandersnatch is a sort of black mirror movie it was a full-featured movie that was interactive you could actually choose what the characters did with the main character dick anything from what serial it chose to if it wanted to you know if you wanted him to like you know throw something at his dad or show him mercy all kinds of weird things and obviously black manure is a very dark type of series so it was a very dark dramatic movie but Netflix is very much considering expanding the genres into say comedy or romantic films should this person go out with him or him you know whatever so there's there's a lot of possibilities with an interactive film it very much reminds me of like the goose bump books like you know choose your adventure if you want to go with the old man in the alleyway turn turn to page 35 if you want to stay behind with your friend let's go to 38 go to 138 whatever I want to old man an alleyway yeah I mean what how could that end badly so there's a there's I think it's cool I think happens next if what happens next I made my choice keep going what I must know what the old man does to my butthole so yeah there's there's a lot of possibilities here it's it'll be interesting to see if this is sort of a flash in the pan and type of feature that like oh it was fun and then it kind of fizzled out that no one ever uses anymore or if this could be sort of a breakthrough in in film and you know the entertainment industry if we're gonna start to see more interactive content go mainstream as opposed to just sort of a specialty niche kind of audience thing so yeah I just I was a fan of the movie it's cool you get alternate endings it kind of feels like a video game in the sense like a massive thing did you like watch it twice I do not want you twice I probably will go back in sometime actually and watched it also okay I only watched it once but but I did you know I I got an okay I actually didn't get a very good ending I should I should watch it again it's kind of weird too in that sense because it becomes like a video game where it's like oh I didn't like that and you let me go play it again but instead you're watching it again so it's it's not quite as engaging as a video game I would say because some scenes you have to watch again you know if you're learning so is there some equivalent to if I remember reading choose your own adventure books and we come to a decision that wouldn't want to being decisive so I would hold my place there and I'd go to both locations so I'd end up right being reading a choose your own adventure books I was like four fingers in different places in the book as I read through two different like alternate sort of plot lines yes I think I think we all think I think a lot of us did that I did that as well maybe what you can't do is they need some equivalent of that for Netflix if they really want I know it's cheating it's not cheating and it's a book I can manipulate a book I want it's not a goddamn test all right and plus the reason I did that is because there are some decisions that really were meaningless like yeah didn't matter which decision you made it race lead back to the same Center which is the same as there are certain choices that you make that you think are gonna lead somewhere and it's just kind of dead ends and then it brings you back to the last point where you make the decision again so it is in a sense it's like there are parts where it's just the illusion of choice but it's really steering you towards a certain direction but I think at some point there are crucial decisions that need to be made that do affect this is the plot in serious ways so kind of interesting you guys haven't checked it out in you have Netflix go ahead and give me an endorse worth a check but finally one other word comes from me Bandersnatch yeah no really I don't think so that's from a poem from the Oh God was the author that's was brillig and the slithy Toves did gyre and gimble in the wave all mimsy were the borogroves and the mome Raths outgrabe it's it's a the Jabberwock Jabberwocky sorry you ever walk Jabberwocky Lewis Carroll yes uh okay cool it's a fun poem because it's mostly nonsense words so much it's fun to read because it's it's crazy how he made up all these nonsense words and you read it and you know anything like it yeah right Gaelic and the slithy Toves did gyre and gimble in the wave that's what I just that's what I just said do you know no I only know that all mimsy were the borogroves and the mome Raths outgrabe yes beware the Jabberwock my son eyes that the jaws would bite the jaws that bite the claws the catch beware the Jubjub bird and shun the frem just Bandersnatch the previous vendors nice yeah yeah huh there's also a Monty Python or might not be its specific Monty Python but it's a Monty Python adjacent the Jabberwocky movie which is a little abstract that's fun if you play that I guess busy let's do it um okay so we have Randy Randy mr. Randy MEK cheese core i5 4590 with 16 gigs of guile dagger ddr3 I don't like saying that word because it rhymes with my name yield oh it feels weird let's call it Gil denial yeah guile sounds like someone saying my name guile ddr3 XFX r9 270 a sorry nice note side panels are proper hard drive cage but adventures alright well the tape on that we've got some yellow electrical tape holding down what appears to be a 2.5 inch mechanical hard drive with a SATA cable tape tape to it or something I don't know why that SATA cables going across it zoom in enhance yanks what's going on here what you need a well there's a there's another Drive underneath it a flip mounted I've done this before it looks like you might have used standoffs even to put some space between the 2.5 inch drive in the 3u 3.5 inch travel but yeah I appreciate this is this is some ingenuity right here what's with the tape though I think this this SATA cable probably going down to the 3.5 inch drive that's my guess so all that tapes just for a SATA cable I mean it might also beats a hole well I was gonna say it to hold the drive on itself but then it kind of looks like it's got some standoffs or something hold it does that right I'm so confused yeah we're so confused here maybe only No all right now we've got some like it's almost like greatest hits of the things we usually complain about when it comes to fit my PC submissions we have a stock heatsink fan on the CPU we've got a catchment Mustard cables not only that but we've got the white whoo-hoo 24 pin white 24 pin plug rarely seen but I'll always clashing and not looking very good it's like the epitome of clear heels yeah you see same thing going for your 6 pin supplemental power for the graphics card just kind of standing out there but of course all of that you don't notice because the immediate thing you look at is the yellow electrical tape on that and the hard drive so maybe that's the real point of it there is it's a it's a making black tape and it's to distract you you look at that and then you don't notice the other potential aesthetic shortcomings of the PC the little flash bang um all right Intel spot coolers not doing me do a solid oh no not at all I mean there's this there are many aesthetic upgrades that can be made to this PC but you know you gotta appreciates mech cheese here just pointed out that it works right I think the first let me know what kind of case it is antic I don't know it's just this the case it's a case it's an ATX layout it had a mount for my optical drive scrounge together like two three hundred dollars to get a new GPU and a new cooler and I think it'll do you wonders you don't like a pretty solid you know CPU that's a quad core what's it on gigs a memory oh yeah totally bad Intel Core i5 4000 series is pretty solid yeah they can definitely handle a lot more GPU than that r9 if you upgraded your GPU and any large or substantial way though you might want to consider a power supply upgrade too which could fix your cabling issue so yeah when you decide to drop some money on the system there are a few hidden place upgrades you could do that would help you out what is the what's the minimum power supply requirement for a gtx 1660 TI i want to say it was 450 is a 450 maybe 500 worked hard even it might even might have been 400 but I mean yeah he's sort of the mid-range Turing Jeep the the mid-range trained GPU that Nvidia just launched might be a good option for you actually EVGA s 1660 txt black requires a 500 watt power supply well that's the XE black monster power envelope is 120 watts I think you would be fine honestly with a for 30 watt PSU at that card it might get you yeah I mean if you especially because you have a Core i5 you know block CPU yeah so someone people are saying 400 450 for 400 to 450 yeah so you probably be safe but definitely change that CPU cooler as well because I agree thank you very much Randy Randy Christian Christian Villegas have like an atheist rnt 700 XG sealed 32 hundred megahertz memory who cares how much it is it's fast rx 580 sapphire graphic scary crosshair 7 hero motherboard 500 gigs m2 SSD and stock power supply cables and alright I will say and I dig the little good color spider-man spider-man figurine yeah accent there also it may be acting as a GPU support I can't quite tell maybe but if so good use of of that yeah well not the the sort of doubling up here of the plugs for the graphics card get some extensions extensions might help I mean this could also just be slightly read there's a zip-tie on it you've done something it's just not really working for me it's good this could maybe be cleaned up a little bit or extensions of course well I think read extensions would so much for this yeah that would I got 30 bucks on like some cheap up here Asia horse cables and they would look so good inside this rig also I would say match the back fan to the front one so get another Corsair ml pro fan put it in the back just to make it all matchy-matchy and please rotate that bottom front intake fan 90 degrees to the right 90 degrees clockwise so Corsair exterior labels are uniform with the one at the top I don't know why but it just it drives me insane that's that's reasonable it has nothing to do with performance it's all just like it's just maybe it's kind of that you know one thing just unturned yeah but everything else looks great it's it's real solid color he blows nothing's clashing color wise and uh diggin spider me and dust it dust the shit out of it every dusty thank you very much Christian good hardware choice Abraham Abraham Lopez Reginald oh it's his first PC build he's looking to water cool this summer and just in time for stuff for the hot summer temps rise in 2700 horas gaming seven msi gtx 1070 TI duke and cooling master each 500 you know okay again cables leaving could do you some huge favors here these don't look bad but they're not pretty appreciate the email to pull pictures so we can see from multiple angles man I mean it was RGB so the cable management I wouldn't say gets high marks it's not bad but again here we have kind of a daisy chains power plugs for the for the graphics card which I mean it's hard to work with with this power supply this is one of those EVGA power supplies that has really thick sleeving right at the end of the cables which is very hard to manipulate and work with or hide so yeah I like how said some extensions there could could printing things up a bit other than that I mean everything's looking pretty clean we have stock Amba heat sink fan you said you're considering upgrading that to a water cooler that would be a reasonable upgrade since you've already got a 2700 you can maybe get a little bit more performance out of that it'll boost the look of your system overall - definitely would improve the look and with your RGB lighting I don't know I feel like you've got some may this is just a static picture so it's hard to say for sure but I want to see some more synchronization of the RGB lights here yeah you probably have multiple yeah you definitely have multiple software's that you would have to deal with do it do that since you've got a Norris motherboard and a few other different things yeah but you could you could work on that yeah that's a bad first attempt though yeah very nice build especially for the first time and again very nice choices for your hardware they yeah thanks Abraham X we have Gabriel with a Verizon 5 1600 X horas AX 370 gaming 5 motherboard and a PNY GTX 10-7 and a looks like he's got some 82 X PG Ram as well okay let's look looks like it's in a Corsair case red and black theme going on here hmm cable management is looking a little hairy I think also because you don't you have an older case that doesn't have a power supply shroud yeah and so that power supply is standing out power supply has an ATI label on it if that tells you anything about image right Ultra X 480 plus bronze I mean it's 80 plus bronze rated and it's a 750 watt it's a perfectly functional power supply it's just not doing you any favors when it comes to aesthetics especially in a case where you can't hide it the chickens bottomless Jergens balls right there cuz you know you got you got a cavity the prepared for any he's also a guy you never know when you're gonna have to moisturize he's also got this down here is that a wee bar of your body is that a boy scouts where we looks like a weeble oh I don't know much about Boy Scouts but I was illegal oh wait below yeah what does that mean it's this this insignia on that thing done there though right wiebel am i Romero he's a boy scout with a full bottle of Jurgen beer his Cub Scouting PC his Cub Scouts was the bullet okay yeah we've lost the old Jergens we've see look at look okay look at so what does that mean you I don't know it's also something it's an insignia I've seen in other places so that might be he used to be why some Beweave lordly weeaboo ones that are weak yeah but anyway so we're kidding we're getting there stuck here I would say getting uniformed fans in your system would be great yeah get all the safe that's some clear bands with red LEDs all the same fans let's do pretty get man yeah the fact that you have that power supply it still has an NCI sticker on it maybe if you get a new power supply maybe you should get a new power supply and custom sleeve cables for the power supply just saying yeah or a new case with extensions a new case an extension oh yeah if you got a case with a shroud and some extensions you could still use that power of supply because it's 750 watt 80 plus bronze parcel but I mean it's still adequate so if you have old transplant Hey all right cool thank you sir Thanks last one here is from Steve she ain't ugly but could use a lift high seven seventy seven hundred aces Z to 70s li+ motherboard to buy eight gig ddr4 2400 kit XFX rx 580 graphics card GTS e xf x RX 518 GTS e d 8 gigabyte GPU that's a lot of words Oh God to 512gb SSD Zin one 1.5 terabyte heart rate how do you have a 7700 but that cooler on it what cooler is that that's a it just slightly that's interesting it looks like a really basic stop cooler it looks like a stock cooler when it comes to the fin array but with a different fans that's on top tilted right and it's kind of off-kilter yes that's that's very interesting it's a really nice looking system but that that CPU cooler just makes it look so much cheaper are there 1.5 terabyte hard drives is that a thing yeah yes of course there are a series I have one I'm so used to yeah I guess there were five terabytes but oddly enough there's no like two-and-a-half or three now well because that was a little last time they needed to cut a terabyte down into a smaller chunk right you know once they got to one terabyte and they wanted to one terabyte to two terabytes who wants two and a half you want two to three or two to four right it's a smaller eight that's how that's how one and a half computer other day's work all right so man interesting that there's cable extensions like this is a pretty nice sleeved extension kit that probably costs way more than whatever this cooler is all right so that's kind of interesting it does it does aesthetically all right we're talking aesthetics it looks nice he is not he does not have off-kilter front intake fans when it comes to the Corsair logos that are bothering you so much before yeah so that's nice you may love another day yeah I mean I guess the CPU coolers bugging me a bit because it's just seamers for an i7 no yeah because it's an i7 because there's so much other things in the system that are premium and that cost a lot yeah yeah it somebody saying maybe it is a non K part like what's you know we're just fine there it's probably there is a potential reason to upgrade a cooler on a non k part and that's just for a better cooler that might be quieter obviously you don't want to spend too much money on something like that but yeah I didn't like a $30.00 hyper 212 Black Edition that would look infinitely better and it would be 30 bucks $22 for the new egg deal that was on this week $22 if you if you did the middle and rebate he's got a couple cans of dusts dusting cans there those obviously no test problems in this in the system all right so what did what's what's our it's our verdict here it's a nice build yeah they gave a serpent of hardware the coolers the biggest the cooler is just kind of baffling to us but clean clean overall look and well done I would say mmm-hmm just need to figure out that cooler and and and lastly we had sort of a special feature here did I tweet it at you all so you could check maybe your tweets I don't know if that's possible when I logged into Twitter you're logged in could you log into yours without people seeing you can I just see what you tweet it was it serious oh this so these are actually images taken from our good friends and fellow youtubers Brian from VPS customs oh and Steve from gamers Nexus okay a tech Jesus they're actually just doing each other in China right now well they're on a Coolermaster trip they're actually exploring and touring some of the the cool factories that coolermaster has out there and they knew that we were doing an episode of hit my PC today so they figured they might as well send us some shots of some of the other rigs that they've seen on their trip so far I see thanks those guys you should check them out if you haven't yet that's real clean but but yeah let's take a look at this one really quick this is apparently a USB testing system I think I think I think you said it was like there's testing USB devices what is this what is that right there it looks like it's plugged into the side of the power supply oh whoa weird what is that is weird why is that like that yeah that looks like USB so they're they're clearly they're clearly testing USB stuff that's that's a testing power supply that I guess we can't fault them for because that's its that's its job like I said they're making use of these you know unused 3.5 inch base storage you know for like a notepad and some tape and this bag of miscellaneous cables that's useful let's turn it into cubbies yeah so Brian said it's a testing machine for USB cables Oh so it's literally just a PC they used to test for cables there was no description for this one that Steve sent over the other one that's kind of darkly pictured it's not the highest quality that's that's my picture is there another one no but you're supposed to oh okay so I would say rebuild the whole system yeah with just some sleeved cable extensions all of the USB cables that they're testing should it have to be sleeved with sleeved USB cables okay the fans there and that's where I'm coming from all right let's pin my PC and that's the end of my half yay so we get to move on to a quick a relatively brief after party because we do have dinner reservations yes we do I mean Paul and wifey sauce um eight so yeah let's move over to that all right yes sir watching thanks guys anyone who wants to do timestamps you de man here every what day Tech has been doing them or woman every day khakis awesome thank you you are the shiznit thank you so much thank you guys okay be right back bye guys
