2016-11-16
what's up guys jcq cents here and you might notice I'm in a space it doesn't really look very familiar I ran into someone he invited me in and I want to go and introduce yourself you guys might have seen him before hey hey what's up guys it's Terry Crews here with J 2 cent we told you it was going down I said on we told you we told you what's happening and now it is happening what's up J okay so this is this is kind of been behind the scenes things here for a little bit because this guy is yes I was busy okay so you got 17 jobs or something like that I think you said you did a facebook video about you were just addicted to building your computer cuz he built that yourself yes yes I did first thing I want to ask you before I move into how we're here today what got you started what made you say I want to build a computer first of all uh my son I was losing him okay it was a thing where he was always in the video games always talking video game and I had no idea what he was talking about right you know and it was kind of like you know and I had a basic overview of things but you know what was wild is that he just loved him so much and I said we have to find something I have to find something that we can do together that piques his interest because you know it's weird because I and I came from the football era you know but a lot of kids today Rams right LA Rams Packers charges risk as Eagles seven year now they're back at home and brought out of back home I was only original saw you were there an opening day the original you know 91 Rams and I said I have to get close to him so but it was wild on the first really real you know big big interest I took into it was I went to the EA battlefield event oh I don't see it what you ready three no it is there to that behind-the-scenes closing yes yes it was like Snoop Dogg Jamie Potts myself and the whole thing and and we saw that and us youtubers are kind of going Snoop Dogg in battlefield yeah what what is happening here it was wild man I mean what this is the thing I thought everybody you know my feels like okay they're gonna give me a controller and the whole thing but then I watched and I saw these beautiful glowing machines yeah you gotta and I was like wait a minute game was part of it it was so much the equipment pulled yeah and this I got goosebumps I was like this thing is beautiful it's glowing and it's and I was like and it was clear and you could see all the components in the whole deal and I was like and these guys had keyboards and Mouse's and and I was and then so other people pick you know grabbed Xboxes and Playstations you were drawn to that Nelson keyboard that was the thing I was like and they were like well you know the real PC guys we play this way and I said well I want to play that way right right and so when people saw me with the keyboard and the mouse they were like PC master-race what's up you know right and I remember hearing it for the first time and I was like oh is that realize that with a whole there was a movement right you know and then I then I started going online it's a it's a it's a subculture all to itself I mean and there's there's some fierce battles there console versus PC and Terry already kind of touched on there but there's just the thing with PC is you can make it yours yeah that's kind of why we're here today yes you built your first PC yes how did you pick those parts how'd you know to get well you know it was funny um while I was there you know I befriended one of the guys he gave me an initial list and then I went online and and just started doing my own research man you know the list or the everything then I started saying I got to make this thing badass right you know I want to make it really really nice so I saw the great companies that were doing the right stuff and I bought it all myself my thing was people were like well they can give it to you but I was like mmm you know what because I want I want the authenticity right of seeing if it really works you know what I mean because this is one of those things where I've been on sets where you know they hand you this and you got to act like it worked and I'm like no you know I know for a fact I said I want to be a you know a real gamer a real guy who's doing this stuff and I shipped everything I literally ordered everything at once at all handed my house and boxes and I was like oh what I do oh my god it was like man look I got this I got this and then what I decided to do I said my son and I I said we're going to build this together but we're also going to build it with my whole Facebook community you know hey yeah and I said any question that I had I just decided to throw it out to Facebook and there were some really really like harsh times probably notice right then and there that not what you asked no one could agree no no one could agree on what you should have done is why'd you get this why didn't you get that that's the tough part it was intense yeah but Jim I saw the build I saw your videos and I've seen some of the streams you done with your son and it works you did not scrimp on the parts you went high-end I got it I gotta confess this is kind of crazy man I did it all I put it together I pushed the button and it didn't work nothing happened and I'm going oh my god no this is the thing with once you start building your own stuff you start second-guessing everything like did I plug this into the right whatever the motherboard you know you just kept this you start running and you just train where you're insecure about everything dude I wasn't pushing the power button you're pushing the reset I was pushing the reset but I had I took it the best by literally like is how did how did I do this it did not work he was like hey boot it up and I said it wasn't the power but yeah I was so embarrassed everyone everyone needs that humbling experience it was humbling very humbling when you put up your video on Facebook we know specifically the one when you were just talk about being addicted to building it and tweaking it and working on it yes so many people linked me over and over my social media feed my inbox exploded with everyone saying Terry built a computer Terry built a computer need to build him a computer I'm paying myself he just built himself a computer what can I possibly do but then I showed you red mist which was actually a pretty amazing build but still very budget oriented and I say budget oriented it's like a $7000 tower but it's not there were limits yeah but given now that you've found a new passion right a new community that you kind of didn't know existed Zak with you and given you've had so much of an influence and on different aspects of people's lives I thought why don't we build a computer for you that is kind of an accommodation of your achievements yeah so that's why I asked you what theme would you want to do we talked about that for a bit back and forward we're a couple months into this discussion already I mean you've talked about president Camacho we talked about Old Spice and we talked about Brooklyn nine-nine we've kind of lean towards Old Spice but have we made up our mind on that one well you know I I think Old Spice you know I want to ask you do you think we could ask have the people decide what it would be or would that be a wise move no it's always good to ask right even if you don't go with their choice at least you know where they're leaning right because ultimately it's yours it's really - it's between to come between Camacho or Old Spice and given where we are right now in 2016 Camacho now they told me if I didn't make me pot yeah it's already done every time I look away I'm trees over here news happening is happening so don't I can only do that if I jump okay I'm gonna put a straw poll down below okay and you guys and you can go to the video you can click this whenever you want you'll see it will let it go two choices president Camacho theme which would be very patriotic yeah right yeah I almost like we need to put a wig on it all right or Old Spice now Old Spice is is like did they give you a lot of freedom on how you want to do that or was it is literally standard on the green screen and do what they said yeah well let me tell you one we may it was Wow I was only like contracted to do two commercials okay okay it went way more than two we did wait the first day as they saw what was happening they there were contracts backs from the parent company they were going we want more we want more we were doing we did more that day right that was so crazy we were making commercials up on the spot when they saw the stuff I was doing it it was breaking into other commercials yeah exactly it just became like yeah I'll give you a perfect example the one where we were like blah blah blah that was like a total like off-the-cuff it is just like edited just keep going and we'll keep doing something you know and do it's again one of the most successful campaigns and advertising history yeah because it's it's so different it's you could not this is love it or hate it you couldn't forget it exactly and that was the thing and it became the first time people were watching commercials as entertainment like truly people would watch a half-hour of Old Spice commercials like you know as a sitcom I like I told you before we started here I told my seven-year-old yesterday so I'm gonna summon go work tomorrow with a with a Hollywood celebrity she's like oh really who I say Terry Crews and she's like who cuz she's seven right let me show you some of the Old Spice stuff and she's giggling cuz it's so silly then I showed her hot chicks right Jess white chicks and you know with the with the Wayans brothers and and she's she was cracking up at that whole scene in the car oh you got and then click she saw the click theme for the scene so this is the deal cuz she likes to dance in the car this right here this is the computer world this is the guys that are into gaming and a whole deal but I have fans in every segment which is nuts I mean when you talk about the kamacho stuff the comedy world goes nuts over it uh Conan O'Brien will Ferrell came up to me and was like dude that's genius it's actually genius then I go to church and everybody's like where everybody hates chris you just a wonderful father it's amazing you know and then you go to white chicks I go to the mall like a little girls like aah screaming then I go to the football games or basketball games it's all Expendables and you know it's a Longest Yard and the whole thing did and it's funny then get the pants of the Brooklyn nine-nine pants so I'm always hit all these you're not taking acid that's what's awesome that's the best thing but it's all funny and so on but that's why I'm here today to us because I crossover a lot of things I'm a very big car enthusiast in fact Sunday I'm taking my car to the racetrack right so I'm huge into cars and I've crossed over into that genre and that's not my main audience here but the amount of people that watch me and watch that and to see it come together just like this is amazing that's good why do you have to have one more than why do you have to have just one thing I really believe a lot of people are always like man you can only have one dream but that has always been alive always if that was the case then I played my football career and I was supposed to go off into the sunset but that's not true I've lived like several different lives yeah I mean pro athlete to actor comedian gamer that's good almost tells like you're going backwards tears god that's righti that's good that's good okay no not backwards I'm going forward I've said earlier to show gamers that look you can be in shape you're not you you have also lost a lot of weight you sorry 50 pounds this metric let me tell you something right now I love Jade you sit got this guy since he is 200 the man has lost me I'm 240 power so you he literally has lost 250 pounds and he's still into the game he's still a gamer I'm actually I'm here to encourage a lot of gamers who are overweight that you don't have to just settle for that you know what I mean you can be you can get in shape you can play the games it's all good you can't have it all a lot of people feel like you got it's got to be either/or but it's not you can have it all I got a funny story for you real quick here I got a tell because I told you we did a fan meet in the park earlier this week one of my fans came specifically to meet me and congratulate me on the weight loss and he's a personal trainer Wow so he brought some ropes and then we hung him on a tree and we started working out in the park in the middle of this meet right and I couldn't help but Channel bridesmaids cuz I was just 12 bucks I literally was like I just felt like it was working out in the park yeah you know I almost forget the stuff I bit it you know it's kind of because I always concentrate on the future then let me tell you something too this has always been my dream and I'm gonna tell you just for you guys to be in a video game I mean for real the motion capture the whole thing it's a huge production I want to be in a video game because I really believe a video game are the future of entertainment yeah I think the television movies as it all gets more Netflix oriented everything streamed it's got to be more interactive right I mean to the fact that I really believe you'll be able to choose the ending of the movie that you want you know I mean like though it'll have alternate ending like those books we used to like choose something and go to a different page exactly I really believe within the next 50 years and maybe earlier than that that you know that's the nature of movies you're going to go into a movie theater you're gonna be able to sit down and have a keypad and based on the mood of the audience right your experience is going to change that would be cool it's the coolest thing guys I'd like to see the movie multiple times but that's the thing I mean when you look at games like Red Dead Redemption you know somewhere you can you can go back into the world explore different time different places you can go off you know and you can go in different time periods or whatever that's a really fulfilling experience cuz there's a lot of games that already offer that write multiple endings but I see that becoming mainstream and media and movies I think movies I think right now in a future we're gonna have to film two different endings when you do a move cuz copyrights already on files don't try haha got rights on intellectual property right 2016 right now all rights reserved I own it okay so let's talk about the PC here yes um are you afraid of water-cooling are you afraid of the idea of having water in there oh man that was not that's very very intimidating I mean I again I put my thing in I did my you know I got my graphic card I thought it in glowed and I was like crude but when I the idea of water it just scares me you know I mind a lot of my channel has been built upon the whole water cooling concept I think most people would agree that of course there's a little bit of added element of risk in there but it's one of those things that generally it happens so rarely now because the water cooling parts have gotten so much better back in the day we used to build them out of aquarium pumps and we made it ourself and it wasn't meant for it and there was a lot of risk so we're talking like back 2000 2001 well now there are there are huge multi-million dollar productions of parts being machines specifically for this and a lot of them carry a pretty decent warranties with them - mm-hmm so to make it truly custom I feel like we kind of need to throw water in there no I'm with it okay I listen I want to take it you know I want to take it to the scary place okay you know what I mean now can you tell me have you ever seen an example where water cooling went wrong uh yeah actually there's okay so I'm gonna throw another youtuber under the bus right now his name is Kyle bit away he went to turn on his system and test it when his all put together and he forgot to put on one of the fittings and it just looked like a geyser but nothing got ruined okay because he he caught it and turned it off I've personally made some overtime so a bad fitting give me a little drip but not in the place I caused any damage of course it could have right I recommend not leaving it running when you're not there right right if you if you have a here on the desk or whatever I would recommend turning it off every time you leave okay but you know there are a lot of coolants out there that are not conductive they won't hurt your system with a leak the problem is if you leave it in the system for a long time then it starts to get conductive because it's touching metal Wow okay but I think it's one of those things too though where for the purpose of this i think the risk is outweighed by the reward yes of what the system's gonna look incredible I want to make this literally above and beyond anything I've done on this channel yeah because I mean the modding community to have access to a lot of probe modders out there that can do anything that we want we'll kind of put together a team and make this computer literally one-of-a-kind Wow because why not why not well obviously this is the room it's going to be in you know what I mean there's Star Wars on the wall yes this ought to be roll this I'm trying to tell you man I don't play this is you know I made this office to be my inspiration this office is my you know where I get this is my muse his gaming view is the 30th floor of South LA nightly exactly what you know I have to say you know the reason I want to move it here is because the internet at where I live is just not very good yeah and down here in this office it's absolutely blazing I want to do twitches I want I mean I want to really really step up the you know the game and we got the multi play and bringing people in and the whole thing and then having people view it and be it there with me but I couldn't do it at the house justice and I apologize a lot of people were waiting for more but it's just the the bandwidth and you know the internet just was too weak now if you don't have good if you don't get internet streaming is terrible terrible experience do you spend a lot of time here I do I do I mean when I'm not working it's funny when I'm not on set I treat this thing as an eight-hour day right you know what I do instead of going to set I've come down here from 9:00 to 5:00 and really I mean work on my new plans right draw work on different things you guys don't know he also has a design company yeah yeah it's called a minute amen exactly we're design furniture my wife has been kind of looking at that stuff and I want to say my pocketbook does not appreciate a lot of what you're doing right now though I took it to Milan our last our last thing was in Milan and we got a big surprise coming at ICF felt the international contemporary Furniture Fair in New York this May so I'm not playing man but I get why stop why not exactly why not in fact I was thinking about kind of working on new gaming furniture that could be like okay another lot of people complain about the only the only true gaming chairs out there like race car seats but ya know is the most comfortable they're not and they don't look good and they don't go with the decor there's a way to make this thing work you're like five six hundred bucks so there's a lot of budget there to play with people are willing to spend on a chair exactly exactly so uh you know my mind is always racing on how to you know do these worlds because the design is still it's still key because right that's the thing with the PCs the PCs look so good that's what turned me on about him you know what I mean I was like I mean I can just get a box and put some stuff in it but that water cooling is good I didn't know that you were so big on design yes until I started talking with you and following a lot of what you're doing on the side and that's what it hit me like okay this guy cares about aesthetics this guy cares about you know taking something and making it yours yeah so that that's what mates made a lot of sense on why you would want to do this right after you just built a computer when I saw red mist I was like holy cow apparently he hasn't seen skunk work oh yeah yeah I see I haven't seen you want you know idea I did see some work but I'm telling you the redness was the first one I saw right so and then I went on and started to looking at you looking up your stuff yeah and then I saw oh my god this is actually possible it's possible yeah and I started to say okay I'm a lay out my PC is gonna be right over here I got I'm gonna line this the set up becomes the tower's is one aspect to set up the monitor I saw you got a x34 predator I usually best monitor it for gamers and content creators is IPS is a good color so obviously this is more than just a computer it's also a setup so we're going to have to collaborate more though behind the scenes and talk about the design because we want it to all tie in yes exactly exactly but I think again we got we got the bass here old spice or camacho I'm leaning I'm leaning toward Old Spice I am I'm leaning in there but stop me if I'm wrong I almost feel like there's no reason why over time you could have both that's true but I build another one exactly how these are doing like I do where you literally build systems and just put on display yes I've got three or four systems right now that do nothing but are display pieces exactly so there's no reason why you couldn't do that well get will get you'll get the one up and running for you again he's not guaranteeing is gonna go with whichever one you choose he's kind of asking I'm just asking I just want opinions like I said you know I'm leaning toward Old Spice but if all of a sudden I hear out of nowhere there's a mass of people that say I know no no I might change but we'll see but I think an Old Spice PC would be nuts yeah nuts I mean have it say something when you turn it on Wow well yeah we have to get a good recording for that yeah there's a couple of things here and I'm really hoping I can make this work okay um I'm gosh II gotta get some engineers involved with this to make this piece but fortunately I know some people that work on tested and with like the Mythbusters guys so we've got a lot of access here I want if you're going to do Old Spice I think it'd be cool to have something where you can put one of the aerosol cartridges in there so when it yells power it squirts so I have your favorite scent you know every time you turn a computer it's phrasing or so it's like an aerial glove it for me it's bear glue right I am a bear glove guy so I think that if I can pull that off that would be amazing that's that's a big feat though if we're talking some major case design here another question I have how big or small do you want this to be oh is it can my skunkworks build is 85 pounds Wow so or you can build a small one that would fit in that little case over there so I would say medium I would say because again I would love it to I wouldn't slide that over and then we have all this space right here to use you know and I mean it could just I mean because this is a justa below you know I just don't want to put it under there but it would be able to be right to the side and it can you want to be you want to see it yeah that's the thing right exactly you want to see the whole thing and you know it'll be beautiful man this is this is this is exciting because I've got my work cut out for me now because this is all on my shoulders no I again I could not be more thankful for Jay for coming all the way down and really volunteering to put this thing together for me because you know I'm in this world I'm in this world forever now you know yeah this is the future I've always been an early adopter and the fact that you know you he this is the man for water-cooling I could try to call him I remember I hit you up I was literally tweeting you from Hawaii I'm ready I'm ready did I was at Jerry's place I funny story for you by the way um Jerry Terry Cruz is now being told you exist he's like tell him I exist please he's my Jerry okay he's my partner in crime on my podcast it's another big youtuber in about eight hundred thousand subs God does allow the 3d printing stuff in fact he's offering some of his 3d printing services to make some of this stuff so Jerry I'm telling him all right what's up so I'm at his place okay and we're playing battlefield one actually when you're when you're DM came in on Twitter well you really hate I'm ready let's do this yes I've been waiting and I'ma try not to nag him as I know he's busy uh and every time I got closer to December I'm going ah this is going to 2017 he was so excited he goes I can't believe you're talking to Derek Terry Crews on my internet you went downstairs and told his wife he's talking to Terry right now on our internet can you place like what is toll fan I'm with it man as I said again he was excited to meet me that's why what because you know what this is the deal man I mean first of all you know this is the way everything is going you know what I'm saying and it's I mean the design the computers I mean if you resist this world you're just gonna be so behind you're in the dark ages right now this this is gonna cost you something though what I've got to get a premiere to somewhere oh yeah that's not a problem got a problem I mean they gotta roll out the red carpet oh yeah I'm sure honestly I think Row 1 is coming up pretty so uh yeah I don't know I don't know I I got it I got it worked magic we'll see what happens oh wow see that would be amazing just to make my sister and my brother-in-law jealous they work at Disney in but I wanna make oh god I'm not making any promises yet no but that just the idea that you would try is enough try I would try believe me I got some people and make some phone calls and the whole thing so because I've got a few to make regarding all this alright say hey I appreciate it man gay man and I think people are gonna be surprised you realize like they don't realize how big I am on camera yeah big goon I'm taller than you right he's taller than me he's lost two hundred and fifty pounds which is he lost the whole size of me now I've actually lost weight over the years I used to be much bigger I mean I was like 260 you know right now about 235 240 because I want to be trimmed and still do my thing what you want to actually be able to put your arms forward not bust back here yeah yeah yeah that's the deal but you know what is first of all you know I I'm a big man on fitness but I'm really really super proud of you thank you appreciate what you've done man I have a I have a hashtag movement I did last year cuz I took up cycling I lost seventy more pounds last year where I was hashtag go team J and what I encourage people to do was tell me their stories and I never realized how much one person can really move people yeah because collectively thousands of pounds were lost because people were motivated by what I was doing and they were showing their before and after and they're their weight loss tracking and I'm just one person I wanted to look a little better and get made fun of a little less on the Internet and then here we are thousands of pounds later across the world so again one small step I tell people all the time all you have to do is just start doing once you stop moving and doing do you get people behind you you know enemy and you are perfect example of that bro as long as you as long as you stick to it all you need is time the time is all you need that's it guys thanks for watching Jays two cents this is a series obviously don't forget to vote down in the description of this video click

team on this is this is like I feel like exhibit right now we're gonna have a PC yeah gonna be view I can't wait I literally I got goosebumps man I can't wait the next time next time we meet there's
