have you ever found yourself walking through a be Auto Show thinking gee if only I could Plasti Dip every part of my computer like these modern-day Picasso's have done to their cars but with all my stuff even work anymore and what about cooling well if that's ever happened to you we've got the answers synergy allows you to share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers at once check it out now at the link in the video description so to bring our idea for the funkiest PC ever to fruition we decided early on that halfway wasn't going to be far enough we resolved to Plasti Dip our entire machine outside and in even critical system components like the motherboard video card and CPU heatsink understandably we were a little concerned that while Plasti Dip seems to be a rubberized type of coating it is therefore hopefully completely non conductive it's not a feature that they explicitly advertise so the chances that this kind of a treatment could kill the PC whether by gumming up the electrical contacts or causing a short seemed pretty high thankfully though our friends over at the local electronics refurbishing and recycling mega store free geek came to the rescue hooking us up with a fairly respectable if several generations old machine that if it survives will actually be able to rock some pretty modern games along with its new style so the first thing we did was to validate that free gigs donor hardware was in proper working order and that the coolers were keeping our system cool enough to avoid any thermal throttling then we rolled out to Canadian Tire and drops 250 of whip what $250 did you guys even try to contact Plasti Dip to see if they'd sponsor it we did and why do you think we bought it oh all right then two hundred and fifty dollars so to make sure then that the motherboard wasn't harmed anymore but it was already going to be we borrowed some dust covers from an AC saber tooth port to fill our PCI Express SATA RAM and i/o ports wherever possible and filled in the gaps with some tape much taping later we were ready to go to town with the hot pink which oh right we were ready to go to town laying down the initial white coat that's required for optimal coverage no big deal I mean engineering is pretty much trial and error that's what that means right moving on for the power supply we couldn't just blast paid into it and hope for the best we wouldn't get very good coverage that way so we needed to tape it off on the inside we took it apart making sure that we didn't get shocked by the very questionable TSU that we picked out of the door soft Bennett free geek and then to make our task easier not less stupid we hung what we could off of sawhorses and got to painting enjoy this psychedelic montage so that at this point the internals were all done up with a unicorn ate a rainbow it didn't sit well and our PC gotten the line of fire aesthetic and the cases clean black Candice look was completed but one thing was still missing the side panel really needed a sweet design to put a cherry on top of this build we were originally thinking some sweet-ass flames and Edie made us a stencil to cut out but it was way too complicated and Edie has shockingly poor taste in flames so we decided instead that a cactus would be not only cooler but also and perhaps most importantly it would be much easier and Wow goodness gracious that is possibly the funkiest most cosmic cactus that I have ever seen time to slap everything together then and then ourselves you it ended up looking even more fantastic than we could have possibly hoped but does the machine still work I mean that is the point of this can you do this at home and it does from a certain point of view we've got windows installed and fired up I 264 to see how it was faring and oh wow just installing programs at around 20 percent load on our CPU landed us at 90 plus degrees Celsius on the processor and under full load we thermal throttled at a tropical 100 degrees Celsius but I mean this is kind of what we were expecting we could have easily not painted the heatsink and it would probably have been fine but that wasn't really the point of the build the point was to find out if Plasti Dip in your computer hardware will kill it and the answer is maybe because our success doesn't guarantee yours synergy is an easy software download that solves once and for all the problem of having two keyboards and two mice on your desk if you have multiple pcs because it lets you share one Mouse in one keyboard between two or more computers seamlessly so you'll no longer confuse which one goes with which and they even allow advanced features like clipboard sharing between the computers being able to drag-and-drop files between the computers the ability to set up hotkeys and support for multiple operating systems Windows Mac even Linux we've got basic and pro options and you can use our link in the video description to get 50% off synergy
