AMD VEGA SPECS REVEALED - WAN Show June 2, 2017

2017-06-02
hey you got it okay good every are now live with we're late but yeah over eight minutes yeah they're not it's not yeah for us that's really not bad like eight minutes is pretty damn bad but like yeah for our track record I feel like that's not the worst thing it's like going one mile over the speed limit like who cares yeah compared to last week where we went fifty over the speed limit had a car impounded because we were like we were so late that people got the timezone wrong and thought that we were a little bit early because we were like fifty eight minutes late so people thought we might have been two minutes early how does that even happen this is just when fanzones start coming into play yeah so good anyway this week we have lots of topics most of which are AMD based there is so much AMD news which is great because their stock needs to come up so hopefully that goes well but we'll get into that in a moment other Matt we also have a two hundred Hertz ultrawide monitor and North Korea has started manufacturing their own iPad who does that look like I find out and we're going to start the intro using the stream deck so hopefully this works I just tried it like a million times and it did so we'll see that was awkward Oh No but it's fancy but here it work why ran like worked before it works fine like little literally does go when we went live it works completely okay tearing it broke well I don't know what to tell you hang on see how you tear it everybody hi trying to get this close here we give us a second present thing you know oh god it's gone so this this is the stream deck as you guys wrote you'd read a really a scary fans yeah what did that do it well we can't see now could know well just click on OK it works when we weren't live I'm just gonna ha ha ha oh good gracious I kind of sum things up right now that's like I know excellent integration right now that's the issue they have over yet but they don't have explains what though I told them that that's important and like it is so clearly windows anything other than 1000 or xsplit screw it anyways I fix it you can screw things with their screwdrivers that would be fantastic thank you I fix it also LTX Tech Carnival 2017 if you want to go to that get some tickets meet me there and Squarespace thanks very much to Squarespace I'm going to show this back to the top and then I'm going to try to use the stream deck nope going to click on it that works better sometimes an easier solution is better not always well I find I feel bad because I was kind of attacking Elgato on Twitter because their stream deck only works with Windows 10 and I don't like Windows 10 but I like the stream deck and like I have one now because cat boiler bought one for me which was like amazing well but I can't use exciting news Windows 10 are you currently using the version of Windows that has the current lease market penetration except for maybe Vista probably close to that but like supporting the last two is a fairly general I think that's fair but okay anyway I still think it's a super cool product it is for a pretty nice crowd but still a super cool product so I'm actually not trying to roast them by having it not work right now there's something going wrong because it was totally working flawlessly when we were offline and I will completely admit to that so that's how it always happens it worked perfectly window was looking Taryn is the one that's trying to do the review on this thing so if you guys are interested in the stream deck and have any specific questions about or anything like that hit tearin up on twitter i don't you notice handle is no handles off it at Karen's VH that yeah that sounds right so Tay at ter and VH on Twitter if you have any specific questions about the stream deck he will let those see if they're important enough and maybe include them in his review but to start the show we've got AMD news not stream deck news the first of the main AMD news topics is AMD announces new thread Ripper details and these are pretty freakin juicy I start firing through them I'll get this on screen yeah so thread Ripper is confirmed to be half of an epic processor that's EP YC and I had when I first read this I had to slide a Gary Johnson moment where I didn't I thought it was an acronym but it's not it's just epic spelled with the Y because it supposed to be they're super high-end things so I'm looking at 16 cores and 32 threads on the top end made of two processor dies so that's pretty interesting all products feature 64 lanes of PCI Express with sixty of those coming off of the chipset for reference of the top end of the new Intel i9s on the other side or 44 so you're getting quite a bit more with this all products featuring ddr4 quality on the RAM pretty standard 16 Meg's of level 3 cache and x3 99 chipset and which is so annoying because I saw this I had yet another moment like that where I saw x3 99 I'm just like is Intel releasing like to families of chipsets back-to-back because of two 9i but they're not this isn't this is an AMD thing like so oh yeah I wonder if they're just trying to zetz Intel with a naming a little bit there ours is one hundred better and yeah and like and you're not going to want to name your next platform this one because we already had it and both yeah exactly the naming schemes for the last like few years just I can't even go over it and I know you guys probably even like tired of hearing it at this point because I feel like every single video that a product has a stupid name like the like the surface pro instead of being the surface pro 5 or the almost any razor laptop at this point like it's just it's so frustrating that all the reviewers freaked out about it I don't know how interesting it is for the viewers but like uh just I don't know and subtly I'm expecting someone get sick of it like a new company sort MOT model name company name or company product name line number one hoorah - yeah exactly yeah perfect q1 product one done why not we've made 500 products what is this product name 500 it's like Intel's first-ever process was what was what the 4004 what happened to one through 4003 like like I know there was a reason behind it but still you know anyway but okay so there's a new there's a rumor about the thread Ripper and that rumor is that the thread Ripper might be under $1000 which due to the you know more recent news from the Intel camp is a little bit cheaper the sixteen core version of the coin I nine which is I the top at the top end is 18 cores and cost two grand yeah the sixteen core I don't know the pricing on top of my head but you have to think it's at least a $1500 part you know so this is going to this is going to be quite the cheaper yeah and like this isn't this is a like a random tweet leak kind of deal thing if it even is a leak this is a little loose but yeah I don't know 849 is insanely cheap for what you're getting and the thing is that that sounds like a movie em do you would try to pull so I'm not even like wait it doesn't seem unrealistic this seems like something they would do I mean there's also the whole IPC argument and what single-threaded like yeah there's more to it for sure but you know at the same time Rison has been mostly good as far as single-threaded so far yeah you have to think okay then then we've got if I'm just going to try to power through some AMD news here hopefully everyone wants to hear about AMD stuff I do it's kind of what's interesting right now so AMD trims prices of the rise in seven seventeen hundred and the rise in 1,700 X so I saw that you guys on extreme the current price of the 1700 is three hundred and $19 that's going down by ten or sorry the current price is 329 it's going down by 10 to 319 or a major difference but the three 1700 X which was 399 is going down by 50 bucks to 349 and the 1800 X has a little bit of a smaller change it's going from 499 to 469 with the savings of $30 that that's 1,700 x discount is pretty sick actually it's pretty substantial it's just like booking a hotel at Disney World the more expensive thing gets the bigger discount goes on sale and it's kinda what's happening here well not entirely not entirely but it's the most expensive not gonna you're not going you're not going to say this much on the very low end oh yeah that's you know that I think you know the $50 you know get yourself get yourselves a triple a toggle get yourself a few toll fax amount and do get your so whatever rolls you're in the yeah fill the mini-fridge there you go but yeah I know I think that's pretty cool I've been struggling on my nightstand with a mini-fridge I'm thirsty Nolan I just reach over my fridge is all the way downstairs now like get some nuka-cola yeah perfect uh yeah but like I I think that's pretty substantial 400 to 350 there's that like golden number that's like a round it was 300 for a long time but then I think there's been some inflation and now it might be like 350 right but for a long time like consoles we're right around 300 like a lot of like nicer things that you could get for like your house like different tabletop things whatnot tried to aim at like 300 because it was a digestible but relatively expensive item that you could buy but like a digestible like you could save up for this over a little bit and get it and would probably be fine yes is that that's the trick in this industry right you'll the price things high but not too high and there's always a spot to hit there so I think that might help them actually getting to that 350 number that's pretty cool and on top of that AMD Vega release dates this is cool the Vega frontier Edition card will be available on June 27 can we bring up a picture of that because it looks pretty Evo hopefully they've got it in here because it yeah that's pretty cool did I like it you might not be able to tell from the screen cap there but that little yellow thing of the upper right is it's actually a good secure it lights up it illuminated the are of course for Radeon so and it also comes in a kind of a reverse color scheme I think they have a gold one with like a blue cube on it is so super clickbait stuff come on and antic I've always hated like not to rag on an antique over here but I've always hated when there's article clickbait ads on a site that is based around articles because it makes you think that like reverse hair loss of this brilliantly simple home remedy Anandtech is now talking about like this secret that will cure your diabetes and this ear tinnitus ending trick thing and like weird other stuff hashtag fake news except it literally is yeah but yeah yeah but yeah that's a pretty sick looking card I'm also stoked that it's coming soon because I feel like Vega has been this like cherry that's been dangled in front of everyone for so freakin long and it's been actually really annoying because people have been asking me forever on my stream on this stream on all the comments on all the videos on the forums everywhere like oh should I buy this card or should I wait for Vega it's been like I have no idea yes I don't know in Vegas coming information has been a little bit hard to come by I actually wonder if they're going to have that sick looking shroud for the consumer line because the frontier Edition is it's more of a professionals card you know so it's not really for gaming yeah yeah sounds like the founders efficient there there's a lot of originality going on over there X 399 the founders Edition now they need to combine the two the X 399 founders Edition old because or sorry frontier runs here at this run to your Edition I'll get it right so about that frontier edition come on guys anyways that's absolutely super cool I'm really stoked on that release date and I'm assuming that because like as far as I know we don't have one yet so I'm assuming that means that we're getting one fairly soon we'll be able to like screw around with it it will be cool um I look forward to it yeah the the frontier edition of ambe's 4 is Andy's first batch of Vega base cards marketed towards early adopters completely unlike the founders Edition yeah okay a price has not been announced that sort of sucks it's called an Emmy if it's a pro-level card it's gonna be it's gonna be like Quatro level probably so it's gonna be pretty high it will be many dollars and it's not going to be cheap some intel news finally until getting on the board so much AMD news Intel announces skylake X bringing 18 core HTC silicon to consumers for $2,000 they've also simultaneously announced KB like X which is very confusing yes so so sky like X is like the super high end and then KB like X at least for now is going to be I think mainly for core a thread I sevens right which one going through puberty there apparently yeah but uh Wow so we're not used to seeing for core eight thread skews being considered an enthusiast product but apparently now at least some of them are so that's happening as well yeah I very exceeding of confusing naming schemes but yeah top end i9 18 cores 36 threads $2,000 it's cool but then I think there's gonna be an interest interesting fight and I think at least as far as our viewers are concerned AMD's probably going to win this fight because just the value proposition of those dollar amounts is pretty intense I feel bad for anyone who bought a 69 50 X with the fourth is puny 10 cores they're selling okay they're selling a 10 core I 9 as the lowest end I 9 they have score excuse going from 10 to 18 cores so if you spent that much money on a 69 50 X I feel bad for you son okay I got 18 problems I guess I got yeah but only having 10 isn't one of them I failed that pretty hard let's revisit this collection I feel like this wouldn't worth like processing of the background for yeah okay cool speaking about processing in the background possibly not happening anymore Elon Musk to Trump you quit Paris so I quit you this is some political jargon so we're probably not going to spend too much time on this but Elon Musk and Disney boss didn't know about that part quit Trump's business panel over the Paris pull out basically what happened there's this thing called a Paris Accord who was agreed to last year it was a ton of countries came together saying hey let's do something about global warming then Trump got elected and he said nah ain't about that he's going to try to pull us out of it and Elom us was not very happy about it so Elan is no longer sitting on I think a president Trump had electrode technology count full Advisory Group thing Elan ought to happy with the Paris decision so he's pulling out and that's pretty much that yeah so II Lars tweets said and departing presidential councils climate change is real leaving Paris is not good for America or the world and there you go although encounter news because I'm trying to explain the whole playing field I believe there was like a surge in the stock market or something I have a lot market did well or something if you're interested in that go check it out somewhere else we're not very good at covering political topics it's not our mo correlation is not causation or is it decide for yourself also I should be noted however you feel about this issue the Paris Accord actually up to my knowledge it doesn't mandate that the signatories actually do anything so it's not like oh you must reduce carbon emissions by X percentage by year why or there will be consequences it I don't think it does anything like that but there whichever way you feel about this there you go so this is another like a kind of political topic kind of deal where we're probably not going to dive into it too far but you guys might be interested so we're at least going to give you like the kernel so that if you are interested in it you can go try to find the whole popped corn I don't know where I was going with that but it does a whole piece of popcorn yeah there is well one is a precursor the others yeah I guess I guess how it works yeah yeah so this is a US approved social media background checks for visa applicants the so the reason why we thought this might be interesting to you guys is social media I guess tech thing social media stuff I don't know you know yours is definitely tech is it I mean like it's social media sure but I mean how I get like do you call someone who's on Twitter a lot of techie go on our forums go on Ars Technica go on any of the major sites that cover techmuze there's all ma covers out either of privacy or net neutrality just affect social media and it's discussed as a topic so I think completely appropriate yeah I've always just thought it's been a little weird but I do agree with saying it at all there's a questionnaire which we can check out here in a second because it was laced by the glorious person who made this dock so here we go here's the Wow okay yeah we're not going to look that closely at that social media identify our name slash handle social media platform so you can see that right there so I guess you'd have to declare I wonder how like what is defined by social media please provide your unique username for any websites or applications you have used to create or share content photos videos status updates etc as part of a public profile within the last five years so like what qualifies if someone is not from the States and they use Linus tech tips com I think they would have to declare their username and the site let's just get right down to brass tacks well if you have a pornhub account you're leaving comments on that does that mean seriously those does no but like I think like would if you want to embarrass yourself to that like point like because that is in a four it says latest updates which is just text and then etc there is also the thing where I'll I also wonder how they would find out like let's say you just put you let's just let's say you just put Twitter all I use this Twitter I have a public Twitter handle you put that down you declare it so if you had five other things would they necessarily know where maybe they're going to like cross search your handle they could potentially badass expose you to and find you on pornhub as well I don't know if you're maybe for a unknown person of interest to customs and border protection and you only declare one hand would be like oh yeah we need to like a look at this guy so I use like veil of secrecy around it you know because you don't know exactly what is really big yeah and it's really vague to the point where like I feel like if you signed up for some random site four point four or five years ago and completely forgot about how do people have yeah accounts all this around the internet they forgot about it because they don't need Oh want to access an article when it has to sign it first took a free account and everyone use begin but it does say though that this isn't like an auto request it says additional information would only be requested when the department determines that : quote such information is required to confirm identity or conduct more rigorous national security vetting so this sounds like they're going to ask you if you're already like flagged if you're already some kind of person of interest to them it also says if you're unsure of the answer to a question please provide a response to the best of your knowledge mm-hmm so don't feel like you're going to get crushed to the vast majority of dealings with the federal government is you're not going to get in ridiculous trouble as long as you're trying until the truth like that's kind of how the IRS operates you know they they don't they don't typically come after people for all these mistakes they really go ask you if you're if they think you're like intentionally like lying or defrauding them so don't forget line is tech tips calm if you're trying to get a visa in the US make sure you list that as a social media platform I want as many US officials searching my site for people's user names as possible just because it sounds fun okay so if we get guys in like dark dark suits showing up yeah one day at the door at sunglasses awesome yeah yeah super cool I'm excited what was the chat saying about this I kind of want to know I have no idea probably nothing good will do yes thank you very much Roy I appreciate I appreciate your your willingness to do so yeah I believe Tom a US citizen yeah feel the same way haha I wouldn't I was actually crying the board the RNA I was driving down to Bellingham and I got a pretty gross gruff border officer I gave my passport he saw it was from the US his whole tone completely changed Oh welcome back I'm sorry I was just sort of becoming super chill with me because because I have BC license plates are thought I was Canadian but you all doesn't you just it was so funny but so another person come over border pick up a darn package so many of us Oh Lord okay my favorite question is what do you can be over for I'm just picking up a package uh sir it's it's 3:00 a.m. why are you picking up a package I don't sleep man well yeah you know what I would say if I were you and this would also not be lying um is that the border whites are much less yeah there's a few I've had to get into it a little bit more a couple times but that's that's a big one there's I can just roll up and there's usually only nobody or one or two people in front of me which Greater Vancouver has two major highway border crossings and they're both usually extremely busy so yeah like quite a while yeah next up is North Korea's iPad Oh religious io AI air quotes iPad yeah yeah so a North Korean company come named Wow Jung Yeo Kyung sure mule Kyung IT released a new tablet they called it the iPad so that is not yeah okay good it's it says in the corner of this photo actual iPad designed by Apple in California I like how designed by Apple and Cal made it all the way to that subjects doing this okay I okay I think the reason why I made it there was because he's trying to be like making a joke like no I'm not around obviously a joke like it's not made by Kim Jong hoon and Pyongyang so yeah yeah yeah Apple hasn't commented on this development its use of its most popular trademarks and while the company undoubtedly isn't pleased with it it's unclear what kind of legal action it could take against a company that's controlled by the North Korean government I guarantee you they don't care their lawyers don't care I don't think there's really any significant market in North Korea for Western consumer goods at the same time you know there is a market in ER yeah there's not going to be more that this is going to be shipped out of North Korea it's probably going to be one of those deals like with their radios and TVs over there oh it's set to like three channels the only broadcast government approved like content and propaganda this is probably going to be the same thing where they have it running through like a firewall just for North Korea yeah so apples not going to care it doesn't matter so it could this is fantastic it is a 1 gigahertz CPU 512 megabytes of RAM 8 gigs of internal storage 16 gigs of external storage an 8 inch display and it promises six hours of battery life honestly that is not quite as bad as I expected the next part though is rather fantastic it's currently unknown what kind of apps the device will be able to run in a region like North Korea which is not surprising but it has a total of 28 websites that it can access that's a pretty good number of whoops is probably eight gigabytes is also that's a lot of compressed JPEG I think - your phone's more than 28 domains just because he like likes buying domains yeah so how many images of the dear leader is that 8 gigabytes and how about how much how much would like you know there has to be a minimum quota like you have to have a certain percentage of your storage on your tablet filled with various angles and various images of the leader yes like and like the guy at home the the the game is probably something like it's like space invaders except it's it's like you know Kim jong-eun you're like a little fight or fighting the capitalist or something yeah it's like something like that so using American flags in an asteroid simulator bastard yeah but so so yeah that's happening oh that's pretty epic can Apple even do anything to stop this I seriously doubt it unless Apple decides get an army which at this point they could probably do they probably could but I mean I mean again like if if you're going to say okay would this violate some sort of like intellectual property statue with or not at you but agreement that North Korea is probably not even a signatory to they still have to enforce their laws inside their own borders it's kinda you know Team America World Police where Hans Blix comes in yeah or what or will write you a letter saying how angry we are with you so yeah probably nothing is going to happen and some folks in North Korea will be getting their on commie Tad's so yeah there you have it after that we've got a soos with an announcement of a 35 inch rog swift PG 35 VQ display with quantum dots and a2 it hurts refresh rate my question is I'm actually getting a little bit disturbed by this Asus where the heck is the 4k HDR g-sync beautiful Swift that they announced at CES that I saw in person working you know I can't I buy one I you know II to them and they just liked it they didn't say anything oh the long troll okay well you you know better than to see a prototype at a trade show and then be like over here my buyers are heard it doesn't matter it doesn't matter it doesn't matter maybe only work for the length of the show and it like dyed paella you don't know that so funny funny story about seeing the prototype thing in 2012 we're just before Christmas in 2012 I decided that I was good this was remember 2012 this is early Kickstarter this is when people still like believably or but things might happen I saw a hammer on there it was super cool it's called the kolbar hammer lastly if I can find this it just hold great sword the Cole bar here it is hold our hammer by Lance Brown oh my goodness see was I right was as well oh this thing does look pretty cool on the yeah hit update so yeah expected delivery of June 2013 and my gift to him was the backing of the project the project launched April 25th 2013 okay so it was a 2013 but it's been a long time but it's been a while yeah so I backed the Cole bar hammer I decided to back this thing for my dad it's super cool in theory it usually I'm not into like multi-tool stuff but this one actually looks pretty sweet you can see like a lot of people covered it you can turn it into a crowbar instead of just being a hammer it's it's a socket wrench like it's a whole bunch of different things and it's it's their destruction tool so you can take them apart completely it's amazing like it's pretty cool right it's still not out but the best part about this because most Kickstarter projects if it's been like four years they would have just given up right kolbar has not given up at this point if you go to their updates task which I check every once in a blue moon just out of interest fifth month 10-day seventeenth year they're still giving updates for backers only so I can't seek some not logged in but dang it's basically a modular or hammer why is it taking so long like this does it have a you tooth or something like what what like why is it and yeah that's the other part okay so the whole reason why I got to this story is in their demonstration videos they have one and they like the guy like jams it in a little thing and hangs off of it and like they they do tons of tests with it so I'm like okay you know what I'll back this because they physically have the product and I can clearly see that it is working maybe it was a very very very well done hologram ah man this point I have to wonder if it's been for years and I think crushed my soul that destroyed any possibility of me being into Kickstarter what is that like fueled the Kickstarter kick-started series well it's funny because it's a literal hammer so it's smashed there's men it's smashing yeah and Kickstarter there you go just buy a hammer and a multi-tool I know I was trying to like my dad is totally of the persuasion and I agree with this to be completely honest of just buy the damn tool use it till it breaks them and buy another one I'm like tossing around do whatever the job is what's important but try to not buy one that's like - crap but like he's not super into like oh this is such an amazing tool he just like wants something that he can do the job with yeah like so I was going to try to buy him something that was above the tear that he normally shops that but not like so he doesn't have to be the one that buys it so he doesn't feel bad about spending too much money on something mm-hmm but it's also not like God Tyr yeah it's just kind of a cool nifty thing and then nope never got it completely failed so when a chat said I hate sand yeah it's coarse and you guess everywhere just what's funny every topic in it it absolutely is speaking of funny every time every single time it's funny we're going to go to look at channel super-fun on a float plane so here we go this is the float plane club where's channel super fun meanest YouTube comments this was actually genuinely hilarious that's a great time with this one so everyone that you can seem a thumbnail right now including the the one and only Nikki V and John who cigarettes I mean why we happen comments but you're here everyday living at O platform yeah Maron a not be you know like an opera video but Colton could have picked far meaner things there's a pretty intense to have some of the more heavily old Dennis had some pretty brutal ones this one on screen how to be Dennis be terrible at everything sheet and then lie about cheating that honestly sounds a little bit more like Linus with like like those like the perpetual if you watch kenny vs spenny linus on channel super fun is kenny i can't remember a channel super fun where he did not cheat in some way or attempt cheat yeah I think the last would the backyard Wars am i right yeah look the batting cages wasn't a competition because we were just literally hitting balls but other than that yeah every time so you can see it scrubs pretty quick which is cool applause watch this video now if you're interested which is cool and you can even download it to watch it later you can which is awesomely fantastic scrapyard Wars if you guys have been enjoying that the last episode of scrapyard Wars will be on floatplane this weekend they've been on full plane every Saturday so far but the main editor for them EADS ill got pretty freaking sick actually so the next one is going to be slightly delayed it will be coming out on Sunday instead of on Saturday but it is still coming on floatplane first so you can see the actually insane probably the most insane conclusion of any scrap edward's we've had the last season of sky viewer season 4 was my favorite one but in terms of conclusions this last conclusion is insane and by far the most nutty freaking balls conclusion we've ever had like no question about it at all now you don't know do you I've only watched through the first episodes I have not had time to what yeah I fully intend to watch the rest of them I'm not saying that but everyone that was a part of it has been trying to stay rather close lipped about it around the office because a lot of people around me out if I don't have any much going on this weekend a bunch of sit down like binge like the last couple of them yeah so yeah I think this week not not to bash on my own platform but I think this week a fair amount of the things that were released were from copy text so they're on both platforms but we do have a few different things that that meanest YouTube comments on channel Superfund is genuinely hilarious like highly recommend that there's some tech wiki stuff on here why do people still use fax machines if you guys like the sketch that we did for our scanners fast as possible uh you're going to love this one um so Reese why do people still still use fax machines featuring the one the only dentist's Leal currently on floatplane Club just went up today okay yeah hey there he is coming out of a phone I love it have you ever happens for you a little bit you're sitting there minding your own business nope what you're making noise oh my god bomb so you call your friends anyways that's your teaser and there's another episode about about SEO I believe what yeah isn't it exciting but it's still very interesting a cool a cool topic so tech work is interesting because it doesn't have like there's like sex appeal of certain channels but it's more interesting than a lot of other things woo cos basically summed up my entire life hahaha I smell is China's bitch well you said uh anyways if you need a website for whatever reason you can go to Squarespace and get your website on Squarespace you can save 10% by using offer code when they've 24/7 live chat an email support it is twelve

potential viewers this thing dynamically changes a responsive way to basically whatever screen size in whatever format you need it's all done for you it's fantastic about commerce already yes if you're using Squarespace and you want to host an online store this is new this is pretty recent update to the platform they they they now support lots of different new currencies so if you love cool

actually so it's great dark rum slash win offer code win 10% off moving on if you need to fix some stuff I actually use this thing very often at home now that I have one at home but I fix this Pro Tech tool kit you've probably seen them in a lot of our content we use them in scrap yard Wars yeah 64 bit driver kit magnets which is actually really nice the the lid for the driver kit magnetically goes on and when you take it off you can use it as a parts tray which is pretty sick it has precision ESD safe tweezers including a pair of reverse tweezers it has a rather wide variety of plastic opening tools that are better quality let me see if I have four here yes these things are beautiful some of the the older ones that they had were still really cool and I like them a lot but they weren't as durable as these ones are doc do you use them a few times the edge would get a little chewed up and then you might have some issues getting through some thinner electronics but these new ones have been able to withstand like everything we've thrown at them which has actually been really cool they give you three which is pretty awesome so even if you do manage to wear through a few of them they've really been a lifesaver because the current trend in electronics best desktops but on laptops tablets mobile phones has been let's make this thing as difficult to user service as possible yeah opening tools really help so those are like manual intervention openers basically it's backed by I fix its lifetime warranty which is awesome buy it because it's awesome or don't and you still get access to all of their free repair resources which is awesome so even if you have your own driver kit and your own tools if you want to get into repairing stuff and you don't want to buy this you can still go to I fix its website and learn how to take things apart which is awesome they use their own toolkits on there so it's easier if you have their toolkit but yeah I don't want to line it up sorry head over to ifixit.com slash line is to use offer code line is to the checkout to say five bucks on a purchase of ten bucks or more there you go and if you're in Canada this is actually a pretty cool note if you're in Canada checkout amazon.ca for cheaper shipping options because sometimes we have sponsors and we talk about buying it whatever in people in Canada where we're from are like goes you're from our own region and shipping sucks for this so they're offering another option which is pretty cool also LTX if you want to show up to a weird place and meet us weird people and do weird things you can go you can buy tickets for LTX I'm going to move to that thing there we go so you can go to the worst URL to say out loud ever which is ticket rocket docto slash event flash details slash nine seven two four six /lp x - 2017 come meet me we can talk about burger trivia oh my god you should have a trivia booth we'll figure something out that would absolutely be awesome I'm doing VR stuff mm-hmm turns editing a video you can do the like what is that geoguessr yeah no promises but it's a fantastic idea I'm going to look into actually like that a lot that would be freaking great and back to the real show okay what is there even a talk about still this week was weird most of the like interesting news from this week is in literal videos that line is hosted from confit eggs but Microsoft has rolled out not one but two bad builds on the windows insider program thanks guys it's like every so often they're a lot they remember oh we're that company that may windows me we should provide all that from time to time many of you things like this windows me I don't know Legum Edition no I know I just don't hear it called that very but yeah that's kind of helping marketed it like me oh it's my version of Windows for regular people in the year 2000 except it wasn't it just made everyone's very very mad it's a fork yeah the marketing was terrible but Windows 7 Professional update so yeah I like I don't know huh and now people the chat or saying or appear to think that I said Windows mean ME ME oh my kind of was is the one needs you to make a custom Microsoft OS that is skinned all with memes it's like every day when you log on there's like a different courage wolf as your background he's saying different things Cortana is advice dog is it just advice dog yeah yeah it shouldn't be pin a while since that mean was popular but it's like yeah you could even do like a two-in-one with that you can have it be advice on but it could start every sense to you with yo dog like the exhibit mean there you go yes whenever your system has like a pretty heavy slow down and then comes up with like an error they can be slowpoke that'd be good I please someone do this that would be fantastic your you know what you're like you're you're you're developing an idea for another line of tech this video as we speak the custom mean Windows meme yeah there you go oh geez John's pics what is this this is just crap I said to James okay what is this tell the people tell the people okay um well first thing I will do is I did find us earlier and it read it but I've been busy since then so let me click on the article first and write to see Coralie about engineering is subject of First Amendment lawsuit an engineer was fined $500 for discussing traffic light engineering without a license so would this happened down in Oregon which is not too far from here uh so I heard of apparently this guy sent the state some advice about traffic light timings specifically he wanted to make yellows longer um which is odd which obviously can be very important for traffic flow reasons and also not to surprise people when they think they have enough time to drive through an intersection but they actually don't anyway so um but instead of the state saying hey thank you for speaking out concerned citizen let's have a look at this they instead slap them with the five hundred dollar fine for doing something along the lines of practicing engineering without a license now as some as you know I went to law school I have a law license which is currently inactive because why do I need it right now but I do have one from North Carolina and it there and in every other state and also up here in Canada you can't do a thing called unauthorized practice of law you can't practice law or give legal advice without a license is against the law so for engineering I also believe every state has like a professional license by for engineers license by for engineers were they're doing the same thing but just like I can sit here on the land show and generally discuss legal topics like I am doing right now actually without giving any one specific advice you would think an engineer could do the same thing but the state of Oregon is saying to him no you can't even talk about it without a license because I think this guy doesn't have his license yet so this is a huge problem ends up going to court he ends up suing the state of Oregon for breach of his First Amendment rights which is free speech you can you can say what you want to um and I think this is still going on but they basically said that he can talk about this as long as the lawsuit is pending so that is where we are with this okay yeah interesting I don't understand legal stuff so I have concerns and questions but I'm just going to move on because they're probably juvenile big ones that $10,000,000 League of Legends tournament holy but chunks team applications for the new LCS open today the buy in price is ten million dollars players on the ten selected teams get a guaranteed salary of at least 75 well buy-in is ten million yeah that the buying for the World Series of Poker isn't even ten million dollars how does that he's pretty nuts yeah Riot Games said it end goal is to create a strong and stable system that's profitable for pro players and provides entertainment for fan in the long-term and I guess they plan to do that by charging ten million dollars for ten teams which is a hundred million dollars how many people on the team you know like there there would be five active players but you have like a roster where you have yeah ventures like there's there's other stuff going on uh once the ten teams are determined they are in the league for good Rai says it will offer incentives to teams that play well and penalize the squads that purposefully that purposefully stay at the bottom of the ladder what um teams the tank for spur on purpose for some reason why okay so admittedly I don't really watch eSports in the very long time stuff played lol but what I can say in in more traditional sports what certain teams at times are especially in the US and Canada it doesn't really work this way in Europe but in the US and Canada um teams will be accused of tanking if they have no no hope of making the playoffs so they end up taking for a better drastic uh so whether this has ever actually happened is a matter of debate but like there's accusations of a happening to pop up every now with this so maybe it's something like that you get some kind of extra benefit are you the ranking in League of Legends no okay thank you I don't think it's out were slightly clearer we're not talking about Draft ticks in terms of like when you're drafting heroes for that game we play as a lot of people that don't watch sports at all yeah is we're talking about like like the NFL's College Player Draft where the war schemes can pick earlier to help make them better so yeah pick a player layer I got a person of yam bean he's not dressed yeah not draft picking like oh let's let's Bend as real or something I don't know why you'd do that I don't think he's very strong right now someone says they say not to get relegated which may be true so that would be more like a not to get relegated blocks Walker you have a motion relegated yeah okay interesting okay uh that's pretty nuts that's fat it says so much ten million dollar buy-in I wonder how well they're going to do I don't know I almost wonder if they would if it would help them to have like teams represent specific areas like real sports or traditional sports a little salt anybody but I don't see okay having a why you guys going to you that's like a deeper topic but I don't think so because I think with eSports it's more of a global thing and because everyone basically everyone is watching online and maintained from anywhere online yeah like there is I don't think there's a lot of team it's just local someone you're in that like personalities you like yeah like I can see a little bit more like national spirit like if there was like the American team that happens a lot in like individual sports yeah a little bit more traditional individual sports no we did have a heroes to the dorm in the u.s. were the larger colleges all inter college teams into this so there's like a little bit of that yeah yeah yep interesting next up we have the first rising based all-in-one which is absolutely pretty crazy it's it's a dell all-in-one so look at her it looks pretty nice actually dell inspiron twenty seven seven seven seven five AI oh it's an 8 core AMD rise in seven eight six numbers in a row alright great maker he's freaking that yeah well I get the 27th got to be 23 yes but but even so like even so so it's the sense m75 ago or 7775 whatever you want to call it ambi rising 7 chip radeon RX 580 and a 4k LCD screen and it looks pretty should actually do some like pretty serious gaming on it with no Rex 580 yeah yeah the the chassis very vaguely reminds me of the the surface studio for Microsoft like a little bit you know like the way the mouse is like the where the chassis is yeah yeah some of the seven seven seven five this is worded a little bit weirdly but I can get there I'm gonna I'm gonna jump away from that actually come on in on deck well I couldn't tell if they were talking whoa I just queued every first the diabetes cure now this okay so despite being yes so it's actually the Inspiron 27 7000 series these seven seven seven five is a specific version there's multiple versions of it the low-end version is a quad-core AMD Rison 5 1400 with an Rx 560 with four gigs of gddr5 memory and then 180 watt PSU but if you jump up to the high end I believe that one that I just noted is about a thousand dollars and if you jump to the high end you get an 8 core AMD Rison 7 1700 which I just mentioned and then a Radeon rx 580 with eight gigs of gddr5 and a 330 watt power supply and I believe you can get up to 32 gigs of ram with one of these I do hope the lower end one didn't go for like the full like ball and 4k display because there's no way you're going to get 4k kisses does okay some don't have it have the 4k so I seriously doubt that the low-end one the bear bill is one is a grand so here a meal here we go if we scroll down a little look I do a they do a better job so we're a display or screen display there we go yeah so the cheaper one is 1080p it's still IPS so it's so going to be a pretty good-looking display but it's going 1080p yeah nineteen eighty bucks that's gotta be a typo TV 1920 by 1080 yeah that's pretty interesting that I think that is a typo yeah in terms of USB connections which is like a topic of much debate these days I do see Type C which is good so they have two USB 2.0 which is fine they have three USB type a or sorry they have three two USB 2.0 type a which is fine three USB 3.0 type a which is good one USB 3.1 type C which is solid and then one USB 3.1 a which is also pretty good the webcam is 720p which is like actually a little disappointing like still seeing stuff showing up in 720p s yeah it's running Windows 10 home 64-bit which is about what you'd probably expect that's kind of cool though it looks sharp I'm happy to see AMD getting their products and stuff like this so that's cool yeah it also looks a little more elegant some past gaming a I've seen I mean granted a law that is most is more the GPU manufacturers but even so and I think part of this is that it I don't think it's heavily aimed at gaming it's you definitely male yeah yeah it is what it's powerful of the the higher-end one is definitely powerful enough that you could but it looks more like it's designed for like oh if you wanted to edit some video or proto's yeah little bit like from the comment the twitch chat so it's 580 for 4k casual use is great and I would agree with that so yeah yeah there we go okay moving on we're a little spin on topic are we talking about the facial recognition thing with the monkey so we're going to talk about that where's that it's down here it's under John's Texas which is why I know what the heck was going on - that shameless when I started talking about it I'll get it on screen so uh there's an article in The Guardian here about scientists discovering how the brain recognized that recognizes faces by reading the minds of monkeys more specifically analyzing the brainwave patterns it's a little different but you know and what what they did was they they looked at their brainwaves and decoded phases that the monkey like human faces that the monkeys remembered and you might be able to see it on the screen capture here but they were almost exactly the same as the subjects appeared in real life which is both cool and a little bit unnerving so you know you start wondering about oh well things like you know reading minds and in that end reading thoughts were once purely the realm of science fiction but now you're starting to wonder ok you know is this something that you know actually has had some some water to what you know some of them look like video gamified versions of the real people a little bit yeah so the predicted phases are on the right and the actuals on all the left yeah they're pretty close though I can't read this one I thought the predicted phases the accurate one the National face was not isn't weird because the actual face on this one actually looks lower resolution than the predicted face which is kind of interesting and so you know you have to wonder about you know is this does this mean that a person could end up one day with the correct equipment see Oh was the person thinking but for who they're thinking about and what they're thinking about there I think they're also talking about your brain encodes like faces a certain way and it does much kind of like a GPU would do like mathematical transformations to like if you're if there's a shape on your computer screen and it's like rotating to see it it's like a cube or a circle or sub spear like whatever else your GPU is doing mathematical transformations to it to figure out what it looks like so it's the article saying the brain work similarly where if you have met a person a couple of times even if you haven't seen their face from every possible angle your your brain can do these mathematical transformations so when you see the person again maybe just see them like from the side or like from an angle when they're walking away from you but you can still figure out who it is so it seems like it's tapping more into that part of the brain as far as reading like emotional thoughts that might be a little bit different I don't know but someone in the chest that's how to hide your porn so like we did we'd have to make like a version 2 of that video yeah if I think of your grandma here's how not to think about what you've been looking at yeah yeah yeah well if I could soon as you say don't think of a pink elephant you think yeah so yeah yeah yeah how to hide your porn version to mind-reading edition that'd be freaking awesome I should make that video at some point in a thousand years this might get litigated this is covered the right to privacy the right to privacy cover your own thoughts you know I certainly think it does but who I mean who knows who know at this point who knows they love to record you know what in public you implicitly give up your right to privacy some lawyer making that argument like hundreds of years from now so yeah yeah I don't know but Nvidia announces GPUs first dinner gaming laptops so they've got a few different things going on now in videos looking to find the fastest and most power optimizer performance level to allow laptops under 20 millimeters thick and sported GT X 1080 we're already getting pretty close are only like with the new we're like the new razor blades you know you can get a 1080 of those and how thick are those you know I'm not sure an exact thickness for those but he's showing pretty thin freaking laptops right here with this trademark leather jacket very good with his freaking leather jacket max Q it's cool men are laptops is good whisper mode blah blah blah blah we're constantly getting ha c forbes even at least they say from the web but like still come on guys news websites that advertise articles for clickbait news is such a weird situation it really really is because there's tons of people that really can't tell the difference super lame anyways that's that's just a cool thing in videos trying to do that that's cool mm-hmm they'll they will I'm sure succeed if they're going to be this open about the fact that they hey we're going to do this yeah they probably already done it as rocky mount's is ITX boards for AMD risin that's super cool I've been kind of waiting for I expected was going to happen faster than it has been but I wanted em ATX to get very popular there is a serious serious lack of really good-looking micro ATX boards out there and that's part of the problem yeah but I TX boards too like I I expected to see more of this stuff going on I think with fantex new case I can't remember the new name for it the old name for it was project two one seven but as of this Computex they have a new name for it I think that might even help because fantex cases are super popular and this thing is freaking beautiful yeah I just wanna talk about micro ATX in for a second because because when you think about it if you're an enthusiast it has to be the most sensible form factor you know because because no one uses four-way SLI crossfire anymore but you get two slots usually micro ATX so if you want to expand you can you should get like a little bit more i/o like but most people are doing external backs not internal sound cards anymore exactly so you don't really need like it but and even if you want like PCI Express based storage most people are using MDOT to Octane's coming up so that you don't have to swallow it into a traditional slot so it's just like why don't you see more of this because ATX is overkill for most people with the amount of expandability that you're just never going to use so yeah and you can get some really nifty kind of small cases but that's part of the problem too there's a huge amount of demand on the motherboard side so the cases aren't there yet really there's a min son of cases for it because of that and then there isn't a ton of cases for it because of that so people don't want to build that form factor so there isn't a ton of demand for the motherboards there were in like kind of a stuck situation but I wish to get a little bit more popular I hate stuck situations duck what schwag says I didn't realize John knew this much stuff yep and Nick for coming for that and here watched a quickie yes techo he is more or less unanimously written by John it's it's essentially like it's my channel and it's not I'm basically creative director for whatever it's worth I hope you will contribute to it too but yes so but like I specially on the writing side I'm like I run entirely by bestially on the right I'm trying not to sound like a jerk hogging all the credit so but yeah okay but ya know on the writing side is basically the John show right now so yeah I think that's probably about it in with the show today yeah do we do we need to make a pee stretch or branch-like strap like you know when you come to the end of a program but it's not the end you have like blank space do we need to like oh no no we get to roll the intro outro I mean intro outro is the same thing I can try to do it with nope the stream decks still not working it looks so look at this when I press the button you can see you can tell this just one screen so I'm like damaging it the turn come look at it that's so sad thank you Squarespace we're doing aha no it's not healthy icon thousand seventeen Thank You us I guess and thank you I fix it bye guys your reset hi it'll work as soon as you stop streaming I just know it
