(Recorded) Tech Talk LIVE! - Guest: Ubuntuaddicted (Ubu the Tech Guru)

2013-04-19
what's going on YouTube it's jay's two cents here and doing the second tech talk in one week's time I know for on some sort of a marathon or something but I've been slacking on the videos but I've really been picking it up on the live streams and as I mentioned on tuesday i think it was i have got a special guest here with me I've got boo boo the tech guru AKA ubuntu addicted and he was one of my early followers and subscribers how did you find my channel um man it was it was a well what's up guys how's it go on oovoo the tech guru here coming straight at you glad to have be on the show I really appreciate that Jay but I think the way I found you was through somebody that I followed on Twitter had retweeted one of your tech addiction episodes I don't know if it was holiday doc or probably don't really I think that's who it was and then from there I just man I love that tech addiction show and you know from there I'm I'm a big techie at heart so I just basically from there I followed on and you don't it's been a blast so far yeah it's funny you mentioned tech addiction it's one of those things that I think was a little bit ahead of its time but I think it's time to start bringing it back I heard you talking about that on Tuesday yeah yeah I miss doing it it's just it took so much time hey right it was so time intensive to do that every sort of attock you put a lot of effort into it I mean that's I don't know if I'll do it weekly may-maybe bi-weekly I don't know or bimonthly whatever whatever twice a month is but it's a lot of work but I think now that I have an audience base big enough to make it worth it I'll probably start doing it again and especially because this time of the year is when a lot of things technology wise really start to ramp up because everyone wants to get their new tech out before the holidays and I you know so there's a couple of things I want to talk about today one I thought you were a really good fit for today's show because of well granted your name you're in ubuntu fan I had a co-worker programmer and he was messing i would have been to a bit and he had a dual boot system and he really liked it and i get a lot of messages from people asking about alternatives to windows and whether or not i think that they should dual boot mac OS or ubuntu and I know all about Mac OS but I don't know anything about Ubuntu so I thought that maybe we talk a little bit about that today I want to talk about sista and it looks like breaking news like we were talking about just went live here looks like they might have caught the second suspect out in Boston which is makes me happy because when i was born in boston too i have an office in Boston and granted I don't live in Boston anymore it's still kind of you know my roots so let me go ahead and right off the bat program compatibility on Ubuntu is it growing program compatibility yeah as far as like the the number of like software and programs right poor for the OS right um you know everything I I run ubuntu strictly I don't even have a dual boot system I have a windows computer over to my left because my girlfriend uses it but other than that and everything that I need to do for you know everything that I do there's free software free open-source software for every single thing you know if it's video capture video editing um you know you name it I can do it I mean sure they might not be as as well develop the only thing I will say that's not up to snuff in Linux so far is gaming which you know they actually are starting to ramp that up because there's a steam client now for linux and more and more developers indie game developers are coming out with you know they're porting their games over to linux now there's still no waitlist titles up there and bunt to steam right um i don't believe so no I'm trying to think the what were the games that I just picked up at in a recent humble bundle I don't I like the fact that they're picking up indie games at least because I'm so fed up but a lot of the mainstream games and you know EA and origin and what all that you know what they're doing in the gaming industry I've really added kind of supporting the indie games lately yeah I don't know his team fortress would you consider that in a game I don't know I I would only because of the fact that its valve and it's been around for a decade greatest yeah hey guys why it yeah I have team fortress 2 on my ubuntu machine I tried playing it my computer's not quite up to snuff on its insight I'm not really a computer gamer but I've been trying to get into it and I realized since that that I really need to I'm running an old penny um I mean Cort you do all with only two gigs of ram so it's like an 8400 GS and vidya so that's like barely enough to run it on medium settings team fortress 2 so I got upgrade my hardware if I want to get into gaming but yeah I don't think there's really any a list a list games um you know on the Linux side yet but you know I'm impressed though that how well does ubuntu run on that system because in today's operating system world it's your system is rather obsolete you couldn't run a westerner could one yeah it's definitely obsolete and I mean dude if my computer is just snappy it's it's the only thing like i said is lacking with the hardware would probably be my video you know working on videos in rendering you know it takes me like a normal say eight minute or ten minute gameplay of crysis 3 or blur black ops 2 to render out that with the commentary overlaid and you know any kind of graphics overlay i do and stuff like that transitions maybe it takes a couple hours and then you know and that's that that's the one downside to the to the hardware i'm still on well what I made that what otherwise i mean when i made a new video with my daughter over the weekend the blog i did that on my wife's core2duo Mac system and that render took 25 minutes and I found that to be painful so I kind of its dedication if it takes you multiple hours to render out a video and at the rate you were putting up crysis 3 videos that machine must have been a hundred percent for like months straight yeah if i could if i could look at the uptime or stats on this machine I tell you it's the load on it is mode average is probably pretty high basically i render I do my do all my video editing at night and then I'll just click render and go to bed and then come home and I wake up in the morning and hit upload and then I got to wait another two hours for the upload oh wow what's your connection speed um I have 20 down from time warner cable and only half a megaupload oh yeah i use i had that boat sucks I had that package except for it was 20 down one up and I I'm so not happy with time warner they're so behind the times when it comes to their upload speeds because even a wide band I get 50 down but only five up and granted i say only five it it still takes me you know sometimes 45 minutes to upload a 15-minute video because of YouTube server lag where you know they're not accepting the file as fast as I can present it but I'm definitely a hardware snob and I try not to be but geez I've I complain when it when i look at the rendering time on some of these videos and it says 15 minutes no my god really 15 minutes what am I gonna do for 15 minutes but I know I submission render out video in 15 minutes you know really you really consider AMD when you do your update our you're up all night i no see I've been talking about an upgrade for a while you know I back in january i was talking with you about getting a one of the FX for a series from AMD like an eight-core or something I just haven't pulled the trigger you Adam I tax money should be coming in there so the Sheep now yeah I know it's incredible see it and with my operating system I don't have to go you know like today's processor I can go you know a couple years old and it's still gonna be awesome even yeah even if you were to get say like a 965 black addiction a black edition and overclocked a little bit that would be just light years ahead of what you have now you can get that processor for like 80 bucks yeah yeah and i overclocked mine up to 3.4 too oh no no no 24.2 gigs every day that i had it and gamed and rendered and everything and then I i sold it to a guy up on hard forms which is the computer for my go-to and he's been using it and overclocking it they are just like brick houses when it comes to processors well i'll probably have to get get back in touch with you whatever you just said because that's probably the way i'll go you know you give me some good suggestions on that yeah and one of my most me i could probably put together a really cheap built build for a couple hundred three hundred bucks Oh easy yeah core what i use i have you have live every little parts yeah but if you if you're using anything that still has are using saitta to or say to three drives ha sada no i think i have like to say two drives i'm still on ide most of my drives our IDE it's you're gonna have a hard time finding a modern board that still has an IDE well see in my workstation I'll take that back my workstation it does have like one sided dry but most of my drives are shared from my file server over NFS or over samba got it so like I have one main drive connected directly that I put you know that's what I render to because I wanted the fastest connection I can and that's SATA so if i do upgrade or if i do get a new drive it'll probably be you know like a one terabyte or two terabyte drive sata right whatever whatever's on the motherboard you know my friend coconut monkey gets a little laugh out of the black edition processors just I guess that's the friend that was on the blog last night so he gets a little kick out of it being a black edition I guess all right guys um you know what the point of the show is it's ask your tech questions and you know one of the reasons why I'm getting people in here too is not only to try and help and support some of the smaller channels because I've been blessed to grow much much much faster than I've expected and you know when you when you get big youtubers that help out the little guys you know I've been helped up by big youtubers you've been helped out by you know wings and yeah you know it's important to pay it forward so you're back yep that's why i told i told Robbie I said he said I'll pay you back some ways in the future I said what you need to do is you need to help somebody else out that's what you need to do so you go but the other thing too is I want to get other tech people in here because there's questions I'm asked every single weekend sometimes I don't know the answer I figure between two tech brains maybe we can collect to light them up with answers for these guys there you go but we've got almost 40 people in here right now and I'm nuts I don't know if the if the stream is just guys if you're typing inside the YouTube chat it goes it lags for me I don't know if it likes for you guys but for me sometimes I don't see it's helped to five minutes after when it finally refreshes whether I do the mouse trick or not so you have two options of waste and ask questions here one we've got both of our Twitter's right here up on the screen make sure you're following us both there's also my facebook page where you can go up to and ask questions and you can take your chances with the YouTube stream but I can't guarantee that going to see it so I want to talk to you about the the cyber security act you know a lot of people may not know that the Cyber Security Act passed and what that does is it basically gives the government just an open back door into anything cyber communication so you're you're talking remember back in the 80s and 90s it was always don't say bomb on the phone or it'll trigger the AI computer to start recording your call sort of thing it's kind of like that but when it comes to all of your digital transmissions and that I believe it goes into your into mobile devices as well that use data so oh I haven't got the bill specific in in as depth as I should have and my fault on that but it kind of slipped under my radar because I was following it late last year when it was being pushed through presented to Congress and its past so the government is just one step closer to you know monitoring everything we do on the internet which you know that brings up such a debate and I really don't want to get into it you know too deeply but you know at what price does security and freedom come right cuz i don't know i don't think you can have either or without the other and oh my god i just don't like the idea of somebody spying on me I mean I've even stopped kind of using my kinect ever since Microsoft put in a patent to be able to watch you right at any time on your connect right I mean that's genetic really too funny tweets from I follow your anon news at your anon news they're anonymous you know obviously yeah and two of the recent tweets one of it says sista abolish a--'s warrants and any other form of legal mandate for cyber spying yeah its basic it's basically an indefinite wiretap it and then their next one their next one says if you're okay with the government collecting every photo you email to your wife husband or friend don't worry about sista yeah really so it's kind of scary I mean it it's you know when I remember when SOPA wasn't that SOPA that came out and in the hole everybody just like basically crapped on it and and was it that was the wire it was the wiretapping wasn't it good while I'm um I know I recognize the acronym but i dont rember what it stands for i stood for stop I'm wait stop Online Privacy Act oh yes yeah well you know it's funny the way that this government works but you know I so many of my followers are not from the United States but it's we're definitely in an odd time because you know technology's advancing so fast and yet they're still caught up on the guns thing and you know it just it it just it's so funny to me that the the Republicans agreed to it to pass this bill because they're really against the whole concept of the wiretapping and whatnot at least when it comes to the public but they would love to wiretap on other politicians but yeah you know I just don't like the fact that I mean anything you send over the airwaves you already know anything that goes on the internet gets saved somewhere forever there's no such thing as deleting anything from the internet but go into my phone or to you know anything that if I'm connected to the internet might they can go into my computer you know I mean right no matter how good your firewall is I don't think they will find a way in you know right I remember when so when sopa was trying to be passed sopa and pipa bills they were like shut down immediately because huge companies backed you know back them like GoDaddy and big companies basically said you know they they even stopped going with a certain some companies stopped going with certain providers or maybe that's what it was like these websites moved away from godaddy because godaddy supported sopa and pipa i forget how tall and down but there was oh here it is your google and wikipedia posted protests against SOPA and PIPA last year yeah but neither company has publicly displayed direct opposition to sis pas like they did in you know and she's always huge because you had all the companies like Google and then you know that we're protesting yep and nobody really did that for cisco right I got a question here from CS GW clan he says hey Jay I did a render test on sony vegas pro 12 he's got a FX 6300 six core anyway he did a 720p and it took 45 minutes plus to render and it was a modern warfare 3 11 minute gameplay why so long it's what kind of graphics card do you have one of the things with Sony is it is able to use nvidia graphics cards for coup de coeur rendering and is the setting you go into preferences and go into video and then you can click check the button that says use GPU if available and if you do that it speeds up your rendering by about thirty to fifty percent depending on which graphics card you have like my 680 if I do is just a straight CPU render it can take 25 30 minutes to render a 15 minute video with my GPU enabled it it splits that load as if I had two processors and it only takes you know 12 minutes or so so I i I'm pretty lucky my systems heavily overclocked though which makes a huge difference if I reduce my overclocked I'd probably be you know fairly slow as well but I'm rendering it about 15 frames per second which i think is pretty good especially on a 30 frames per second video so looks like Jacobs is putting some system specs there he wants my opinion Jake RV core i5 2500 k 4.5 gigs obviously overclocked in a data 60 gigabyte SSD seagate 500 gig asrock z77 pro pro what 34 corsair ZX 600 w and a Corsair Vengeance 8 gigabyte 1600 it's a very good system the SSD for the operating system is a little small if it's already built you can't do anything about it if you can bump it up to like a 120 128 you'll be happy but other than that very solid system i still like Sandy Bridge a lot now how come I have a quick question about that why do you say that the hard drive is small for the operating system how much this window is really require windows windows really only requires about 15 to 20 gigs it's just once you get once you start dealing with SSD speed you'll start to find yourself wanting to put more programs on it like I Oliver I run all of my rendering software loaded on the SSD but I rendered to a standalone drive yeah and I put one or two of my favorite games on there and when when Windows boots up and you know I think my system takes 12 seconds when you load a game like battlefield 3 that takes my friends on mechanical drives two minutes to load a map and I'm in there in 25 seconds you really get spoiled by the SSD so with I see what you're saying yeah you can get 120 big one now for a hundred bucks so it's one of the things where if you can spend the extra 40 bucks I think it will cost just do it right and already my 128 I've got 41 gigs left on it and I'm looking at the 500 the 500 gig samsung 840 s I've done two builds this one right here to my left also has a 500 gig a 40 in it these SSDs by Samsung or just amazing when it comes to speed of the SSD it's put it this way your ide drive probably rights 20 megabytes per second yeah my 7200 rpm 64 Meg cash mechanical drive rights 100 megabytes per second my my m4 which is an SSD rights 200 megs per second and this 840 rights 360 megabytes per second so when it comes to the difference is wow it's insane but I don't recommend SSDs though for editing because they're their life is rated on how many guys you rewrite up you really right timing out granted you know when I look at SSD life which is a tool i use it says i'm at ninety-nine percent health and I'm my drives not projected to die until like 2048 so if it's accurate than hey but right what else is gonna break in there but before the chips do so yeah yeah yeah I haven't gotten an SSD you out yet and I mean my it's funny because like I just rebuilt or I transferred over a bunch of hardware our hard drives to a new server build for my file server and in my DVR server and my realized my operating system hard drive is an old 17 gig western digital ID ride yeah i mean ubuntu man it only requires probably about max five gigabytes of storage that's it yes I mean a minimal system could run on on a 10 gigabit hard drive yeah my coworker love looking at it depends on log files to and temp flat you know all temps and all that stuff too though obviously yeah my coworker loved it a lot I remember you know he he would tell me hey look at this new operating system and now I wasn't I'm not like that interested I guess in operating systems so I was just kinda like whatever but then it wasn't until I met you that it reminded me oh yeah there's this ubuntu thing and if i can get if i get a bigger SSD i might do a dual boot just to screw around it's not like it's hard to partition and install right it's not at all right and since it's free and open source what i was gonna tell you is the easiest thing would be is if you run it from a USB Drive that's true yeah I forgot you just put it on and put it on a four gig flash drive or 16 gig flash drive and run it from there yeah the breezeway you see windows is the only operating system until doesn't let you run from a flash drive rio s you can do it in fact what's funny is the the operating system disk that comes from Mac I don't have ever dealt with mac OS 10 any would if you could when you use the boot disk it's literally a full copy of OS 10 on a disk so when you need to run your utilities to do disk cleanup and stuff like that you just run it you just want to run the operating from the drug from the DVD it's like a lot it's like a live studio linnaeus does the same as the same thing up an apple doesn't even send DVDs anymore they ship all of their systems now with a thumb drive with the OS oh nice I didn't even know that well because they're not putting um they're not putting recovery partitions no they're not including optical drives anymore in their computers all right right okay unless you go with a macbook pro or like a mac pro those will have it but mac air the new macbook retina they're all all about being thin so they've taken out even the slot drive right so yeah okay we got some more questions here we're bumping up to 50 people if you guys are just joining this is booboo the tech guru AKA to bunt too addicted here on youtube and twitter make sure you go check out his videos if you guys are into crysis 3 and i don't know what it is i I've been a huge crisis fan I still have one into sitting right up there on my on my shelf I just couldn't get into three I don't know what it was i think i just i'm so burnt out on shooters right now honestly because i couldn't get into modern warfare or black ops 2 either I tried yeah just I think it's a lack of time but ok so we've got as always I needed to start renaming this stream to GPU talk with J's to students cuz all anyone ever asks me yeah I notice that a lot on tuesday too yeah Jack Arsenal says crucial makes a 960 gigabyte SSD yes they do and in fact if I get a huge SSD like that I want it to be a PCI Express drive big so that you get full transfer our data rates and not to mention you can get a full gigabit of right speed did you imagine writing a gigabyte per second yeah that'd be crazy that's insane yeah okay Gerard w98 says hey J opinion please I seven 3770k 4.5 AMD radeon 9700 hurts overclocked to 1200 crucial ballistix sport 1600 oh he said 7870 yeah um you know I've I noticed some people make comments that hey dude you even put up a video in like a week and a half what's going on I have been recording about six videos simultaneously so you guys are going to see some pretty frequent uploads over the next week or two because I got the opportunity to do with this build over here and I mean I'll some of you guys have seen it maybe heaven I'm turning the camera here so you can see this build where is my there we go right here it's got a lot of parts in there that people are constantly asking me is as good as this good so I decided one not only did I have free range with this customer build to pick the parts I just had two requirements it's it's going to be a workstation needs to be fast needs to be quiet it needs to be dust friendly and it needs to be bulletproof like we can't be dealing with system lock ups or blue screens or any of that stuff so I took the opportunity to buy parts that I found people asking me about a lot that met that criteria and the 7870 gigahertz edition is one of them and I spent a couple of hours yesterday testing the overclock of the graphics card and let me tell you right now there's a lot of variance in graphics cards first of all one if you're going to be overclocking you really have to take your chances you you may find one card will overclock some people have hit 13 hundred and fifty thirteen hundred and seventy megahertz on their their graphics cards some of them they can't get out of the 1100 it's just it depends on the bending of the of the chip and I talked about that last week with binning is if you don't know bidding is go look at tuesday's video too it is so freaking quiet I was checking the fans constantly make sure they were actually on I have the msi version it's not a it's not a twin frozr but it's the same concept it's two fans on there with a heat pipe system graphics cards man they're getting quiet now and I'm impressed because I've only ever used reference models for nvidia which are the sound like hair dryers so that's 7870 I think that's going to be the first video I'm going to put up at the Parts I review on the system because I get asked about graphics cards every hour and I can't just jump answering the same questions over and over and not to mention my graphics card comparison video or at least my discussion on graphics cards is a little outdated so it's time to redo it all right um if you don't mind I got a question from go d Rock for 299 yes what my system specs are I'm running an old core 2 duo 1.8 giga hertz that's the way to eat 6300 i believe uh it's seif 4300 I believe Oh 243 okay I say I chop the 6300 was a 1.86 cuz i have one hanging on my wall here i can check right here cat proc cpu info it's the 4300 i don't know what the difference between them are then I I don't either I think it well whatever and it's got I'm maxed out it's only two gigs of ram and it's still only ddr2 that's its old ram i have actually the motherboard i have was ahead of its time where you could put in either ddr ram or ddr2 ram or pci express or a GP it's an asrock hey g 00 sorry yeah I murray lane then I know right I came at it set this hardware so old I camera cut Leah but hey guys look how much will your money's worth you got holy I exactly I've been on this Hardware forever I mean you're pushing in what six years yeah easily yeah gosh I don't know what I i came across a video on youtube i would happen to look up something about you know video cards and I was kind of watching and then and he was just generally talking about parts of the graphics card and sockets and stuff and you couldn't see what card it was because it was kind of a grainy video and I knew it was old but when he talked about you know moving on to moving off a pci and onto the new AGP socket i was like oh god and looked at the day of my 2005 oh wow wow yeah it's amazing that video is still up I think I still have one pci graphics card sitting somewhere in my basement here yeah I was shocked that this gigabyte motherboard that I did the review on has two PCI slots I hadn't seen any motherboards coming with PCI slots anymore they've been expressed and expressed one point 0 only yeah I mean it's good for having if you have old pci sound card or something no problem with that right demonic chievous wants to know if he should upgrade and you know that gives me an idea i've been i've been kicking around this idea of doing a video and maybe i'll do that tonight I just don't know I have I'm in that mode where I have too much going on in my head and nothing's coming out because I can't get all right yeah write that stuff down and just focus on one or two you know yeah and it's not and it's not like I'm forgetting it it's just I'm a dding from one idea to the next nothing's coming out yeah I know the feeling but I want to do a video that's an all-inclusive how to know when it's time to upgrade and because I get people asking me all the time and demonic chivas just did i'm gonna get to his question is how is it how do you know if it's time to upgrade he has a half x which is a case by the way you never need upgraded case unless it's too small he has a radeon 6950 and an AMD phenom 1090t all default cooling should you upgrade look it depends on what you do if you're just gaming that 6950 is still a great card if you're not scared you can flash the bios on that thing to be a 69 70 they're the same exact hardware the 1090t and the 1100 t or were like the best processors AMD put out prior to the FX series that turned out to be just a huge flop with the bulldozer a lot of people still run their 10 90s and 1100 TS they're the best phenom they ever did and all default cooling you don't need stock or aftermarket cooling unless you we live in a hot environment or you want to overclock so that's what he's asking that's what he's asking though J he said should I upgrade my cooling before overclocking oh there we go thanks i missed that cuz it's chris right yeah it scrolled down on me yes never overclocked on stock cooling ever in fact stock cooling on AMD side can barely handle this the stock frequencies it's pathetic yes overclocking you must update upgrade your cooling if that it means adding case fans or if your case doesn't accept it and behalf X you got plenty of room I believe you have to 200 millimeters up top I think you have at least one in the front you have 120 or 140 s in the back the case is perfect for overclocking go and get yourself a hyper 212 from like a demonic I believe you're in the US go to newegg if you can get anything for 25 bucks a hyper 212 by Cooler Master one of the most highly recommended overclocking coolers you can get 25 bucks and then there you go and if you see any questions you want to answer it would just jump right in cuz oh alright I tend to be long winded so that's alright yeah ok read read read acts wins red X wins hey Jay can you be on the next text talk you're the guy with four hundred dollar bill video I know send me a message we'll see um you know one thing you guys have to realize to about why I'm so picky oh how I bring in here is the most coveted perk you get on YouTube is the live events and if that gets abused they yank it fast so you've got I've got to be very and I believe you have live events to on your channel don't you yes I do yeah and you saw it was like the very last perk you get as a partner and yep and if you have to apply for it and they review and it's just it's a process so you know I've got to be careful that's why I don't allow people to call in or anything like that because if they say something horribly against community standards they'll yank it they'll yank it before they review it let's put it that way so yeah okay um cute what I like here is a lot of a lot of the guys that follow my channel or tech guys so they all tend to help me out with the answers and I greatly appreciate that yeah that's a big help maniac power wants to know hey jay is it worth buying a 3770 over 2700 to get Intel's q sink because you will be rendering a lot I am I said it earlier in the stream I'm still a huge fan of Sandy Bridge I don't know I don't think q sink is going to be worth the price to upgrade to the 3770 I think you could probably still get about maybe one hundred and eighty dollars used for your 2700 which means you're going to pay about another hundred bucks for your 3770 I Bay still use the same socket so it's selling it to buy a new motherboard it's up to you really overall computing power of the 3770 is not going to be you're not going to really feel it too much you are going to notice it runs hotter though because I love me a lot of people may not realize this they changed the way the heat spreader works on the Intel CPUs between sandy and Ivy Bridge whereas Sandy Bridge actually had the heat spreader soldered to the chip so it had a perfect you know connection between the heat spreader and the die we're on the Ivy Bridge they just use thermal paste and they did a pretty shitty job of it so a lot of the IV bridges that are overheating people are pulling their heat spreader off reapplying thermal paste and then they're getting amazing results so and Jake RV has another question he has another build I 320 3220 with stock cooler CPU idols around 35 to 40 on full load of those 48 255 that's not yes if that's entirely terrible no it's not your if you got up into the 60s low 70s and you'd have a problem the ivy bridge is can get all the way up to the 70s and 80s before you have to start worrying I have an old nem for prescott those things ran so hot remember those Elia yeah yep I and then I went to a pentium d after that which got really really really hot too okay well you know talk a little bit about your crysis 3 videos because i know that's kind of been a flavor of what you've been doing a lot lately and it's no lie that you're like the only guy really doing consistent crysis 3 coverage yes i mean there is there's a few other guys that are doing crysis 3 videos um which is you know the community is really small for the game and unfortunately you know it's falling again just to how crysis 2 did where the developers aren't patching some of the core issues so people will just like a lot of we lost a lot of people when gears award judgment came out they traded in crysis 3 and went out in black gears of war judgement because they're there were a lot of issues now they have released a few patches for the game and it's getting more stable but the game I got to be honest I mean if people are coming from call of duty or other first-person shooters it's totally it's really unique I mean because you have cloaking capabilities which makes you almost invisible you have armor capabilities you can activate your armor and not unavail more um I mean there's a lot of ins and outs to the game so it's not noob friendly and there's a little bit of a learning curve but I have a great channel which is Ubuntu addicted on YouTube and I have a lot of I have in-depth series that I'm doing you know there I go really in-depth into the various aspects of whether its weapons or maps um you know and things about like the max Nanosuit which is a killstreak in the game you know and I have a lot of videos that's pretty much all of them while I'm focusing mostly on crysis 3 videos but i also have i do like a tech tuesdays every once in a while as well I also do I have a shank 2 let's play which is I'm playing on my ubuntu machine which is a neat little side scroller i picked up in a humble bundle and then i also have I just started up it was an original xbox title called black I don't know if you remember it no it was a fraternal instructor original xbox title yeah it's called black and um they actually made it they actually made it available on the xbox 360 for 800 microsoft points and i picked it up just because it was a really fun first person shooter from the original xbox days and I just started up that series i'm doing that every monday i think but yeah as far as the the crisis three and then you know if you guys are looking for help and trying to decide whether you should go out and buy the game I think it's already dropped down in price I know gamestop had a huge discount on it was only 40 bucks for a while I origin had a big sale on it for pc um unfortunately the numbers are just are really lacking lately with players I mean that doesn't really bode well for me trying to tell you guys go buy it but it you know multiplayer or the single-player the campaign of the game is really solid it's really really fun it's a good campaign I know there's a couple youtubers that you know I speak the same thing as I like vikkstar he's a big youtuber i'm trying to think well he's got only stared up some comments with black a lot of people seem to really like black yeah black was awesome man and I can't believe they remade it for the xbox 360 see I was gonna believe it or not I was going to do a series of black on the original xbox I still have like seven of them right six like six of them are converted into media centers but they only play standard definition content so I had to get rid of them but one of them still runs you know the regular operating system and I have black for it but in the Nelson I found it was for the xbox 360 I was like well then I can just do it you know do it on a 360 instead of bringing out the old xbox yeah that was a really solid game and for 800 microsoft points i think it's worth it just to play through the campaign again it was a blast they don't have multiplayer but the campaign is really solid i will definitely agree with what you said though about the learning curve I think that's what throws off a lot of people is they're not used to the having to be quick on the Flies switching between cloak or armor or speed or you know power kick and there's a it's not your average shooter where there's you know jump right up camp you know it that stuff doesn't fly in crisis right it's definitely like a hybrid type shooter I would say yeah I think I think part of it too though this is the first time crisis had an open beta and crisis was always a PC platform game right and I don't remember how popular crysis 2 was on on xbox but I didn't think at crysis 3 would be as popular on xbox as it is on pc but even on PC it's just not it's not as popular as it was and I think that's two reasons one crisis one and two definitely gave a lot of gamers pc gamers a bad taste in their mouth especially after crisis one because let's face it crisis one still kicks computers asses because of the fact the coding on the the optimization of the graphics was so poor the graphics were amazing the problem was even the best computers at the time run it because it wasn't an optimized yeah and now Crysis 2 granted the graphics are a little more forgiving people still think crisis as that oh that's you need the three thousand dollar computer I like that game to play it right and by the time crysis 3 rolled around they put out the open demo and most people including myself went this is the same as crysis 2 but with the hunter mode so i'm gonna pay 60 bucks for this you know so yeah I think they did make a bunch of changes to try to make it more noob friendly from crisis to crisis 3 they added in a module called auto armor which basically you know allows you once you start taking damage it'll automatically activate your armor for you if you're not used to pushing the left bumper but and I just actually added and then they also um somebody in this town but i don't think that exists on pc uh yeah some would have to correct me in the comments i don't play it on pc sorry but and then also the other thing they did was they separated you know how in crisis to you had one meter for your cloak and your armor right and you know if you ran with cloak or armor on your gauge went down you had no health and you get one bulleted yeah well in crisis in Crysis 3 they made it so that you have to separate gauges and you have unlimited running capability now it's a super fast paced game I mean I'm still loving the crap out of it even though with the little bit of issues yeah I mean Oh methadone vehicles down on sale in actually just I want to throw the stat out there a number currently for the crysis 3 on this this website has all the statistics that you'd ever want to know about the game you know if you're playing it it's a crisis 3 s.com and currently there's 298 players on PC there's 798 players on ps3 and 852 on 360 so that's unbelievable that the pc is so low and 360 s you know the highest yeah sidering it came from pc you know yeah but it the developers and especially the CryEngine ruined it for pc yeah because it people don't even give it a shot they're not going to take a chance at their computer can't run it and not to mention when they put right on the box that if you want to run it on high settings that it recommends a 680 with no five-hundred-dollar graphics card people aren't gonna buy that right right not in this and this economy shoot um Matthew Matthews hon heart I think hopeful saying that right he wants to know if we've ever messed with World of Tanks I haven't what just haven't you which is funny cuz i have in-game cash just sit right over there a code for that that Hawkin and I'll planetside 2 I would play planetside 2 but I've got some co-workers that play it love it and I really should check it out since it's a free-to-play but alright skeptic ah I'm guys I'm gonna mutilate your name's I'm sorry it seems like the only people who speak up or the ones that like the hardest names to say okay skipped tick Tom 818 says Jay question when I get a new motherboard replace your old one do you have to uninstall all the drivers from your old motherboard and if so how when you get a new motherboard you're going to have to fresh install everything so it's not like you have to worry about movement any drivers because one your new motherboard is going to come with a driver disk for all of its chipset drivers you're going to have to reinstall windows in most cases and all of the computers have ever built and all of the computers have ever upgraded I've only I'd say lesson five times ever had windows boot in an existing installation on a new motherboard because it has to do with the the chipset drivers and if you're going with the chipset that's in the same generation windows will be able to boot otherwise windows's is installed based on the motherboard chipset and the SATA drivers and the controller specifically it's the controller of your hard drive that's built into the motherboard that matters you can sometimes make it work with a repair install it's it's iffy and then usually you come up with some some finicky problems after that and it looks like we just had move on to drop off the call here it's going to try to reconnect in there hmm let's see if we can get him back am I still alive can you guys still hear me hello yeah let's see if we can get him back here yeah I think you might be having a some sort of a problem there I'm not dropping any frames so I know I'm still connected interesting alright well go ahead and get into more of your questions here we got 15 more minutes left pharma get out of here and get some dinner my wife is cooking over there and I can smell it and I'm hungry I'm like very hungry hopefully I'm not just sitting here talking to myself which would be the first time I've ever done that okay um our bros says who makes the music for my videos I am a full screen partner and with that I get an entire library of music that's available to me so all of my music is provided by a company called audio micro com it's not free music by the way so yeah if you guys want to you know get the music that I use it's not something you can just go and download for free without especially without being pirated and I don't really want to do any of that stuff looks like he's back alright are you back hey I'm back sorry I crashed I don't know why well you just did like a max Hagan thing there what's up you just did like a whole max Hedren head run thing they remember him no from it was like a cow is he a Pepsi or coke it was like the floating head and the monitor thing and he was always like like glitching whatever all I'm an 80s child like you I think we're close to the same age but anyway all right um everyone's been sitting here telling me to stop talking to myself because that's what i was doing for a little while sorry about that guys I don't know why that's probably a sign that need to upgrade my ancient hardware my skype crashed I don't know what's going on with that yeah some people are still putting up here that bomb or two is in custody that that's awesome news I hate the fact that it's gonna get a hot meal and a roof over his head but yeah you know whatever at least he gets to hits to be somebody's girlfriend right I did not get skype army i did not get gears award judgment rampage if you're asking me matthews hun heart wants to know if I think the asrock probe what do you think of the asrock probe for motherboard I think asrock or asrock whatever they call it has definitely made a name its port self over the past I'd say five years asrock was always known as like the cheap motherboard the $35 motherboard you know something cheap to make your computer run but you hoped it would work long enough before you could save up money and replace it but now that pro series motherboard I really like it in fact um asrock I believe if i'm not mistaken makes the fatality series motherboard which is a gaming grade motherboard so asrock pro for for intel highly recommended human livestock says baseball's new anchor news anchor I love spaceballs by the way I have that movie memory yeah right and I swear I wore out of DVD and now any my wife bought it on blu ray for me alright guys know uh 40 minutes just dream getting your questions guys I was gonna touch back on um you had stated how you know window is doesn't transfer to new hardware very well well that's one advantage to who uh Linux an ubuntu i can tell you guys right now i switched out i was running my server ubuntu 12.04 point2 it's uh the the latest long-term release version of ubuntu i was running it on an ancient dell dimension 8200 with only 256 megabytes of ram and a p4 in it and I switched it over to a p4 celeron uh celeron d with two gigs of ram and so and i'm the motherboard i put in there was a foxconn something or other and all i did was just transfer the five hard drives from one case to a new server case and hooked everything up plugged it in and the computer booted right up and everything was fine so I mean that's just one advantage to running Linux an ubuntu that i just wanted to point out and it's because everything the modules are built into the kernel and that's why that's what differs from you know the windows operating system has all the different controller drivers you know separate for every controller whereas the most whereas the most common modules are built right into the kernel for linux yeah I I look I kind of liken windows as in to remember on the the spider-man of the spider-man movie where they had venom and that that black note are kind of like makes its way into your body that's windows and your body is the border when you switch the motherboard it's got a re insert itself and it's just not Renly at switching ok so red X wins says Bitcoin mining talk i don't--but queen so I'm not I don't personally I don't think point either I don't do big I see I saw the other day a bunch of youtubers we're talking about a purchasing stock of you know Bitcoin and how it was going from like to 16 to share down 76 dollars a share and how it was just so volatile you know oh yeah it's quite an interesting interesting currency system and online currency system very strange right um let's see here Jessica Gleason says what's my take on the zone are fo bus sound card I was take I was looking at it and I hear my daughter banging on my door you guys are probably gonna hear kids screaming soon um I've never I looked into it I've looked at the specs one second that's fine yeah so um I've listened to the IRA I've heard it before in a in a test system microcenter had one in a in a system that was there can you hear that can you hear her yeah let's talk all right my daughter wants to be on the stream or something anyway you guys are just gonna have to listen to that in the background she's trying to literally break in the office um it's it is it is extremely expensive um but you know a lot of the the games I play I play with my logitech g930 headphones here these these are a wireless USB headphone system there are 7.1 surround their cordless so I'm not plugging into a sound card I prefer something like this because it's all in one these this is the sound card and I really do like logitech products when it comes to the sound quality so it's hard for me to recommend a graph a sound card that's you know 200 bucks 300 bucks and unless you're building some sort of a home theater PC like a surround system then you want to invest in your sound card because you're going to be putting that into a receiver so Jessica it I don't know it really depends on what you want to do if that money takes away from any other performance aspect of your computer I never think sound cards are worth the money my system that we hear my system over here that people have been drooling over as long as I've been on YouTube I use the built-in THX sound card on the motherboard I don't use discrete sound billion like because like I said most of mean my sound card right now is my mic my Yeti is a sound card so I have all the sounds of the system going through the Yeti into my ear phone so I can hear me talk I can hear you everything through the headset and do the mic so me personally I don't spend the money on sound cards like that cue evil 1015 wants to know what I plan on doing with the 900d case when I get it I plan on taking my water cooling to the next level and I'm thinking about doing straight acrylic tubing with all all bends being done with swivel fittings and and making it look like almost like steampunk kind of in a way I've always liked the steampunk look and since it's a black case I might do chrome are not chrome copper accents on it rather than black or red or white or whatever's mainstream but the amount of room that I have in that case God what couldn't I do I could build another computer and put it inside there if I want right it's huge that the 900 e is so big you could fit my switch 810 in there and still have room you can fit I can fit in a 50 d inside of it or any hundred d inside of it I mean I'm like so behind on all the the hardware and the cases and everything like I said but I had tweeted out that picture of this full-size case that i thought was humongous yeah and you just like tweeted back and you're like oh that's tiny it's a slight say it just baby yeah i mean the case i have over here that's not the mean the 800d is bigger the cosmos 2 is bigger than 950 900 e is just there's nothing on the planet as big as the 900 e my and my switch 810 has nine expansion slots so and I could fit a guy took out all the external or the internal hard drive bays but I could have fit you know 10 hard drives in there if I wanted it's it's a massive case yeah I would / doona I do it isn't I don't understand is that that's is that still considered a desktop case it is it's but it's considered a super tower oh okay all right yeah king of honey badgers awesome name by the way and I like his little picture don't care it's about my film with iOS hardware so your iphone 3gs over the period of about three days went from eight hour battery to 10 minute battery any idea what's wrong yeah you probably reached your match max from battery cigars charge like yeah see what people a lot of you know people who aren't familiar with nickel metal hydride which that's not but it's a lip lipo or lithium polymer battery maybe its lithium-ion remember where they put the 3gs they have a certain amount of charge cycles that they're rated to and just like when you have an RC car or anything and you're playing around with it and then it just kind of dies on you there's no warning laptop batteries lapsewood laptop well you know older laptops they just don't hold a charge anymore that's what's happened to your phone and you gotta look at the a of your phone yeah it's the battery on that thing is it's done and you can don't don't get upset if if that sounds like it's scary to you on most places if you go on craigslist for your area you can find some sort of an iphone repair guy in your area and they can switch those batteries out usually for like 50 bucks or something so oh yeah look on craigslist some people like put up craigslist things yeah Matthew Matthews hunt heart says its lithium-ion cuz he works for apple yeah you know that's the thing with lithium-ion they have great battery life but when they're done they're done it's not like you still to see a gradual decay in the battery it's just it's the battery is microchipped controlled there's microchips inside the battery and when they're done that's it you know so when people start saying they see degrading quality life in their batteries especially on their iPhones it's like no you have something on your phone that's eating your battery there's nothing wrong with a battery of your phone okay so Joe 34 jay says so how about that sapphire radeon HD 7770 I don't really have a whole lot to say about it like I said I'm a I'm a hardware snob I'm very used to the high-end graphics cards have not dabbled in the hundred and fifty dollar range you know 100 I think that card goes for like 165 ish I don't play around in that range too much normally because the system's I'm building or for people who when they say build me a computer I want to be able to play ultra settings you know you don't dip below the 7870 at that point anyone know about a good forty dollar case with a window and led go and look at the 850 dollar pc build i did it's titled how to build a gaming computer that case was 35 bucks and I don't remember passive window I know it has a vent on the on the side panel go and check it out that case we were all really impressed with all the features you get for that case for 35 bucks thank you what the the ultra case that I then I took a picture of today and showed you i actually bought that edit used computers to add computer parts store for like twenty bucks and it's got a side window but and that there's no LED like the guys asking about but that's just something to check into if you have any used computer parts doors this case was like brand new I mean there was just a few little nicks on the clear case but otherwise it came with everything for twenty bucks I mean something to look into yeah and and Matthew saying that logis logisys has a lot of forty dollar cases in that case I use for the 850 build it does come with a blue LED fan which kind of gives you the color or light that you're looking for so it may work for you five minutes left guys so this is the lightning round getting your questions and I just want to go ahead and say ahead of time ubu thanks for coming onto the show it's been fun an hour goes by so fast would have someone here with me it's amazing yeah and I really appreciate you have me out I mean it means a lot to me i'm at about 840 subs it seems like it's taking me a while to get to that thousand mark but once i do i'm gonna do a giveaway for all my current subscribers and you know you guys if you're interested in crysis 3 or you know I even have black ops 2 I have shank 2 I have black and I do a little tech you know so little tech things here and there come on and check out my channel it's a bunt to addictive and it is Egyptian by the way you guys can just click it and it'll take you there so make sure you open it up a new tab though don't leave the stream now this guy says human livestock says what video capture card do you recommend i use msi afterburner and fraps to record gameplay but I'm sick of 30 frames per second recording cap and leg I hate fraps because it really reduces the audio codec to where everybody sounds like they're talking on an AM radio afterburners okay I just don't care much for its capture software the software I use is not free but then again neither is fraps if you want longer than 30 seconds I use Dxtory and dxtory you can capture any frame rate you set including 120 frames per second if you have 120 or monitor now to capture at that rate you better have you have to have a good system but so I mean if you if you've got a mid to low-end system don't think that you're going to be able to capture 60 frames per second but what do you want to do with the footage you want to put it on YouTube YouTube's 30 frames per second caps so you're going to capture it 60 frames per second upload it and then be converted back to 30 frames so and a lot of people to their so caught up on the frame rate of when they capture video you know when you watch your TV you're seeing 29.97 frames per second when you go to the movie theater you see in 24 so that's that's the standard you know and there's another thing that I noticed too that I don't know a lot of people will take note of for those of you who do YouTube or you know capture video go to youtube and download like a video and just look at the the max bitrate setting of it oh it's no more like an HD or 720p download when I look at it after YouTube's done transcoding and everything it's like 15 you know megabits Mac bitrate so I see people capturing like 30 meg bit rate and it's just waste taking up hard drive space for no reason when it's just going to be down converted by YouTube again yeah and you know at when I do my captures I capture at 4000 okay for my for night if I do any sort of capturing for YouTube like right now I'm uploading to youtube at 10,000 k only because I'm trying to fix the voice lag and by the way is the voice leg still there and I think it might be there a little bit I think it's better than it was like when I was on here with boogie it was like a half a second delayed it was stupid Carson Bigelow that's an awesome name to I like the way the Carson's well what's for my opinion on the gigabyte super OC Jacob gtx680 should you get that or another vendor if it's the wind force the gigabyte windforce with the three fans is the coolest and quietest graphics card you can buy however I don't know what the hell gigabyte has up its assets so obsessed with blue PCBs and if you have a case window like me I would never put a blue PCB in my computer because you can see everything on the inside and it just looks god-awful so if you don't want the blue PCB look at msi and their twin frozr or look at EVGA with their their duel fans set up it's a little bit boxy and square but it's a lot cooler you could also always get a reference card and add an aftermarket you know triple fan cooler for it if you want it as well so looks like people are saying there's no voice leg tonight thank God I don't know what the hell was going on but it was really really pissing me off alright guys if you haven't done it yet go over to booze channel the link is down there in the description go and click subscribe even if you haven't checked out any of the videos yet give them a chance go and watch them you know I you've YouTube is a funny funny place now because I think you set it in your video and I don't want to starting the controversy though people the big channels are growing so incredibly fast Smosh has 9.1 million they've gained nearly a million in the last couple of months it's what is just crazy it's crazy how the bit it seems like the big you too brazil jump um what a white boy went from a million to two million in like six months or whatever they just I don't I don't know I mean I you know what it is I think I think there's just it has to do with Google's algorithms of promoting yeah I was to watch stuff right so it just snowballs it makes I mean it makes sense I guess yeah it is what it is and I just got to keep doing what I'm doing and I'm still having fun doing it so that's why I do this stuff you know and that's what it is so I feel bad for chief f cheaper I sound like I have a lisp hey chief f now he says yeah I made it he had to work late so you missed the stream unfortunately for you we're getting off now i mean i'll give it a couple more minutes but hey at least you cut the last few minutes and don't forget there is always the replay button and you know it's always going to be there like the last four uploads i think or live streams but i am coming out of the video i'm going to be making it tonight we'd be releasing it tomorrow i still am not sure exactly which one I want to do it's maybe a toss-up between the 7870 gigahertz review and overclocking performance or how to know when it's time to upgrade your pc and I kind of feel like I could have some fun with that when to note how to know it's time to upgrade your pc i feel like i could almost make that as a spoof but still get the point across I know right as we'll see ya Jake Harvey just made me happy by saying Smosh is garbage so is PewDiePie when I watch those types of channels I feel Dumber by the end of it but let's face it they're playing the system because YouTube is like eighty percent 13 to 17 year olds so if you can go out there and you know put out that kind of humor then you'll grow but whatever it is it's it's working for me and I'm glad I could get the you know gets you guys some little bit of exposure even you know 10,000 on YouTube is still not a very big you know not a very big chunk of the pie but it's something and I'm let's it's it's awesome to have seen you grown like i said i think i was in may be at the couple thousand mark on for you and I mean it's awesome you're almost at the ten thousand mark or what you know wherever you're at it's just keep doing what you're doing man i really appreciate the videos you're putting out you know you put in the high-quality effort and you can you can tell in your you know and you're in your video it's about kill mice sometimes because I told my wife the other day you know examined insomniac and if you follow me on my if anyone follows me on my vlog channel you guys I know I'm an insomniac I don't sleep like last night I went to bed kind of early I guess you could say but it was like 130 on a work night my daughter comes and wakes me up about six in the morning and so I've been I've been taking some sleep aids and I told my wife that's why there hasn't been that much videos in the last week because my youtube
