alright guys welcome to the Linus tech tips livestream today we had some bad luck and we end our 20 minutes late you know what I think this is actually the latest we've been if you don't factor in no you can't do it in there you have to do it in the other tab if you don't factor in the times where we've started on time but then we've been just destroyed by by technical difficulties and we've had to come back so it's that top one you have to edit it and copy paste in all the stuff otherwise it won't work yeah sometimes it's finicky it's like YouTube right it's just yeah oh speaking of YouTube we're gonna be talking about YouTube's paid subscriptions a little bit later on in the livestream and what all of this means what what we think of it as as content creators who predominantly work through YouTube but we're gonna start with summer drivers come on I mean it's one thing when it's like that first major like rainstorm and the roads are slick and people are like oh I forgot how to drive in the rain and it's like you know what I understand when it's the first major snowfall of the year and some people don't have their snow tires on yet you get caught by surprise but people who get in accidents in the summer what are you doing and like the first one we ran into today Oh is a minor like you could see some scratches that's it the bolts holding on the license plate in the front left an indent in the rear bumper of the car that was hit that's like that was the damage this chick was stopped in the left lane of a two-lane highway okay with huge shoulders huge shoulders on both sides she's just stopped right there it's like does your car work do your legs work get off the road move I mean we're not talking people who are in major accidents and you know you need to have like investigation of what happened and and all that other stuff that goes on we're not talking about that we're talking about are you in a minor fender-bender where like you're fine get out of the way anyway so that delayed us by what like four minutes this morning half an hour 40 minutes are down there so ng our interns like waiting for us at NCI acts for about 40 minutes this morning because we had no idea because we don't know how Google Maps works with traffic apparently anything to check it and then on the way back today I mean this one was legitimately a pretty legitimate accident well we probably lost what a good half hour 40 minutes on the way back east so I mean it's one of those things where for all of you commuters out there who actually commute Monday to Friday every week I mean this is probably sort of I sound like I'm complaining pretty hard for how bad my situation is I commute once a week but today was today was an ugly commute beautiful weather I wish I'd been on the bike because then hey I could have are you trying to change that I can't think just change it back to the old one and change it I can't figure out oh it is on the old one oh it's probably not logged in I don't think there's anything we can do better right now um but yeah I only commute once a week so for all my right I wish I was on the bike today because the weather was gorgeous and I could have just kind of gone around things relatively easily as well not that you should do that although it's funny because it's a very North American thing for you know bikes on the shoulder bikes in between lanes like all that stuff stop it stop it pause it it's a very okay just just kill it our internet bandwidth this links do you know I know it so it's a very North American thing for that to be like woo like over in Europe whites are all over the place you see people like on their scooters going down the sidewalk you see them like you know parked on the sidewalk basically there's no room to walk I think it's just one of those things where we have the luxury of all this space here so we like create rules that don't work unless you just have like tons of space like I don't know I hope we have to in space we do have tons I don't necessarily want people parking their bikes on the sidewalk why they parked their bicycle on the side I'll take up the entire your bike is a lot bigger than your bicycle really yeah not really yeah takes up a lot more space in a bicycle other thing too is I've noticed in Europe it doesn't matter which way the traffic was supposed to be moving on the street cars are just parked pointing like whichever which direction like you'll just you'll be cruising along this way and then you'll just like go over to the other side to park perfectly normal over there here you get a ticket for sure yeah park using the wrong way even if you're parked the wrong way outside your house that I didn't know about yep we had a car parked the wrong direction outside of our house because he just like pulled out of the driveway and just went the wrong direction cuz he just had to move his car to the way because we were it was my brother I think pretty sure isn't I really and we were working on stuff in the front of us so we're all home and his car isn't going the wrong way take it take it Wow and in front of your house pretty much in the boonies but stuff like call the clip there's a conversation right there so they were just on their way somewhere probably going somewhere fat because they don't usually hang around Aria nothing ever happens in our area right so they're usually going somewhere oh that's a shame they're pretty not so happy about that I don't remember if it was my brother who was but someone outside my house when we were all there got a ticket that's well I'm throwing my keyboard don't worry about it wow it managed to type vgy in front of our news items vgy why so it's like you're almost triplet tribes yeah who gets that right no one alright so thanks to all 1200 of you who tuned in in spite of the fact that we're late and we are very sorry about that I'm done making excuses for the first six minutes of the livestream so let's move on to our first news item of the week which is check this out so our link is w CCF something whatever I don't know what this website is called they should really work on that and apparently oh oh apparently after a presenter right after it wait what look at the end press ENTER BAM there we go copy paste you have to install the Google Drive app for whatever friggin reason so apparently there's a retailer in China who is selling Haswell chips so you can see here's a big bull pile of intel's new and improved boxart honestly I don't know about this box I don't like it it's like um when I first remember when I asked you if this was the legitimate release yeah yeah reason why I asked that was because I was like that box art looks too cheesy for Intel like the top looks like Intel yeah you know with the futuristic looking microprocessor looking I see looking thing here it's these two bits which they can't see but you could weave your most face yeah that's a little bit but that still seems like their style at least at least it looks kind of science II a science in robotic you know there's like a picture I like the idea is it's like Oh what you can create with Intel technology and it's about like creation and creativity and that kind of good stuff and back to the news thing so Taobao has listed has waltrip so you can see the full specs of what's available so the only real difference this is interesting so the 4770 and 4770k have the same maximum turbo frequency this time around also apparently all these chips are using HD 4600 graphics which is I haven't which is good because last time around a lot of the lower end chips we're using the lower end onboard graphics which to me is completely backwards because low end customers are going to be using onboard graphics not guys who are buying like 4770k s with that said the integrated graphics can benefit performance customers if you're using features like quick sync which will allow you to transcode your video using the or GPU so anyway you can see all the specs for the chips there you can also see pricing converted and then there's some boards that are available as well so there's a couple biostar boards and msi board as well as an Asus saber-tooth z87 board that is apparently available now if you're viewing this from China which I suspect you're not at least you won't be watching a YouTube archive from China I discovered that there's apparently a lot of videos and of me in China yeah we do we talked about this could did we talk about it on the livestream I don't know so no so China's big video sharing site I don't remember what it's called but YouTube's blocked over there so it's not YouTube but there's videos and there's like a video of me unboxing like in a soos ITX board that has like 26,000 views I'm like what really what's going on who are you who are these people watching my videos that I didn't even know about it at all which is kind of crazy it's pretty cool I mean piracy and is cool I guess but but like at least my contents like good enough to pirate yeah so and if they're not gonna be able to see it anyways yeah if someone was doing it here and getting twenty six thousand views I'd be like okay that's kind of annoying no it's pretty normal for Intel CPUs to be leaked and available ahead of launch but we're like three weeks plus away from launch this is sort of early even for like Intel chips to be and normally you see them available in like Taiwan or something yeah you know where all those manufacturers are anyway so you know like a couple master cartons and motherboards fall off a truck somewhere or someone lost their job because they leaked it and like like bad things usually oh yeah whereas this is just it seems like nope it's just there apparently tiny Tom Logan has his z87 boards we haven't got ours yet but he's got some gigabyte ones we're hoping for some from a Seuss pretty shortly we've had chips for weeks but no motherboards for them yet so anyway has well is is very much upon us by the look of things so let's we're gonna move through a few of our news items this week pretty quickly I think because we've got a lot of topics to cover but then we're gonna do some Twitter Q&A a little bit afterwards so our next news item we're actually I mean okay Logan from tech syndicate is not the first one to have reported on the illumiroom prototype but we thought we'd just give him a shout out because he's a great guy we hung out a little bit at a Seuss's event and this is some cool technology this video has been out for a little while now but check this if you search for illumiroom there you go that's how to spell it illumiroom on YouTube it is a very cool demo of the Xbox for the lack of knowing what it's actually going to be called xbox 720 next-gen Xbox with a TV okay so the TV's here and then a projector setup that aims around the TV so sort of filling the room so it's meant to be an augmented gaming experience so what I mean what do you think is the coolest thing it does and then I'll say the coolest thing and then we'll go from there I like the explosion thing because okay spreading the screen past your TV unless you have like in the demo tell them that he spreads the screen past the team okay yeah sorry I I was focusing on what I'm doing a year I didn't actually listen to you the whole time sorry I guess that's rude I actually have stuff I had to get done anyways it can spread stuff across the screen or it can allow like just certain things to go out so they say explosions or flares of any kind or big streaks say if you're driving really quickly you could have like brake lights going past yep it can highlight items yet stuff that you can pick up so so if there if there's like if you kill some dude and there's a pickup item and it glows and you walk past that glow could be on the other side screen blues outside of the screen yeah like sitting on your bookshelf yeah because the projector is projecting this so what I like the most is the explosions and the item thing okay because I most likely I'm gonna have like shelving units or whatever on the side of my TV so it's gonna be inconsistent and I know from seeing the demo that it's actually very good at covering that up and making it still look good but I would still not really like having the entire environment like the whole thing spread out past my TV yeah for me it's a very it's a very noticeable break yeah exactly we have a TV which is like a super high quality great image and then still good but my monocycle not nearly as good washed it and like on objects and stuff yeah with that said the illumiroom uses a Kinect type of sensor to compensate for objects because it knows that they're there so it still looks really good but not as good as obviously you can only compensate so much projector technology is I mean it's not like Steve Jobs came back invented the projector and delivered it all to us on like a cushion that's made of stop okay no anyway it's my favorite one it's explosions and like glowy things because it'll be cool to see the context yeah without the distraction I guess exactly and then it would still be cool if I miss an item it's like oh okay so my thing would be um things like weather effects and debris that's what I thought was the neatest thing about it so you could be one of the demos they showed and the demo is real it's not composited or anything like that so one of the demos I showed was like a racing game where you could have like snow or you could have weather effects that are in the room that go beyond just looking through that window that you could sort of in your mind's eye you could pretend is the cockpit not only that but if you have like things like grenades or if you had something like a piece of your car goes flying the projector could let it bounce off a bookshelf and land on the floor with the same game physics that are being used by the game itself now with all someone says to stop Lynas you are oh probably the Steve Jobs bit right ah so with all of that said what are the odds you'd set this up assuming it was free someone handed you an Xbox 720 a TV and a projector is this what you would do with them to be honest yeah yeah I would like the explosion thing and I would like the item thing okay stuff like the snow would you put it it would take up so much space me projectors short throw projector will help yeah and you don't have to always have it there as well but I mean it's yet another thing to turn on I mean if you got like a university or something in the thing don't they have another table I think this is gonna be really nice oh I'm sure like super nice I mean you look at how cheap projectors are now you can get a good quality 1080p projector for less than a thousand bucks it's still cool though because you're awesome your one friend or your run friends dad who cares enough is gonna have it set up and when you go to their house it's gonna be awesome whether or not you set it up I think it would be cool to set up I would at least try okay I mean I've thought things were gimmicky that ended up being a thing before I thought the DES was ridiculous really I was like no no I mean when I heard about it when I got one and I was like oh okay like I got it I was like okay I do use the other screen for some stuff with that said I didn't look at it much yeah but I liked that it was there I I I thought it would be good just cuz of Pokemon the only thing I play on mobile devices anyways it's Pokemon I think that's the only reason why I've ever bought Game Boys is cuz of Pokemon I'll end up playing like a few other games but it's pretty much Pokemon of tetris so yeah we'll see I don't see myself setting this up even if even if someone handed me the projector I'd probably just like go have like a projector room and like a TV room and it must be different if I somehow could like if I had either a roof mount or if I had a table that was properly lined up I think outside of it even then though it's there okay so there's the wire mess there's the sort of pain in the butt with all the inputs and all that mess I don't mind cable managing things so you really really really really hate putting holes in your wall oh I do but I would very properly and nicely cable manage it along the roof okay well why don't we move on to our next topic so guys if you're not already subscribed to Tek syndicate raise the world with zero instead of an O I you know I gave him hack about the name of his YouTube channel when when I met up with the most liked to put what's up with that how are people supposed to find your YouTube channel okay so raise our eyes Eddy not re ISE raise the world zero not o go subscribe to Logan if you aren't already and tell him his YouTube channel name is dumb alright yeah I know he does okay but it's not because people remember the name of his channel I don't think I remember maybe that's part of it it stands out too much it's ridiculous so you're like whoa but it's hard to tell someone about it true speaking of things that are gonna be hard to communicate this is the clearest companion a tablet designed for seniors so senior citizens I don't know if you guys have any senior citizens in your family I sure do and I remember my grandpa signed up for one of those Telus promotions where you got if you signed up for a fixed contract of I think it was three years you got a free Dell computer well so that you could leverage the internet that you just paid them in advance sort of like you booked in advance with them okay so this was back when a computer anyone cared about so this was the promo before they did the free notebook which was before they did the free we so this was a long time ago like back when we was a thing right Nintendo Howe in trouble anyway I digress so the free computer thing I remember sitting there trying to show them how to use a mouse he'd get like the edge of the table and be like what do I do now like no like I kid you not like that's what it's like do you remember the guy who works at NCIX who did a lot of the the IT admin he used to teach a class back in the 80s on using the computer and the mouse was very simple like everyone was like that back then apparently like he put together the most ridiculous possible curriculum he taught it at UBC Wow yeah and people came in and paid good money to take this course on like not having the mouse like fall off the desk as you got to the edge like kid you not anyway so my grandpa was like that I can't even imagine after that experience trying to put a tablet in front of him so the clearest companion attempts and I'm not gonna say they've achieved it because I haven't had my hands on one but attempts to make it friendly for seniors so it uses a bamboo wooden design that's designed get this guy's to look kind of like an old-school CRT TV set just like a wooden frame yeah and the speakers at the front see the speakers at the bottom on the front right there amplified speakers with huge ginormous fonts optimized for senior citizens it only has it doesn't even say what OS it runs like I actually don't know what OS it is probably an insanely modified version of Android like unrecognizable super cut-down unrecognizable there's like five buttons on the front and there are things like pill schedule like all daughter like like that's pretty much all it does it's expected to have a cellular data connection and they have a subscription service that depending how much you pay for the Claire's companion upfront the subscription is cheaper the more you pay for it up front there's even a lifetime option which is a thousand dollars and I did the math and apparently the company is expecting the old people to live for like another year or two based on the lifetime subscription I was like oh that's kind of a sad thought because you'd never offer a lifetime subscription for a cellular service to someone in their 20s for a thousand bucks I should buy one just to see how long they honor my lifetime subscription guys if you want me to do a Kickstarter I spend $1000 on a klaris companion to get a lifetime subscription we're like actually not doing that you would never ever use it and you probably can't transfer utility service so like here's this crap crap tablet that you can use for your life yeah so it has easy-grip sides and I think we're pretty much done talking about it built-in charger for connector for eliminating fussy cables amplified speakers and huge fonts and so anyway yeah I thought that was sort of interesting babe they actually reached out to me that's where I got this news item from they were like dude do you want to talk about this tablet I'm like yeah sure I guess also wanted color if I didn't mean crap isn't like it's a bad tablet I mean it doesn't know like the OSB we don't know do us being locked down in 40 years it's not gonna be the fastest thing that's what I meant by cop but it'll be made of wood bamboo and it will therefore be real working problem like wood won't exist anymore yeah that's truly it could be a collector site I bet it is a collector's item by that time by that point the first Bamboo tablet we're not talking Wacom Bamboo tablet we're talking a bamboo tablet here folks now let me tell you this is the best gosh darn Bamboo tablet that I ever done seen you should go ahead and for only $1,000 you get a lifetime subscription it's like that i totally picture this on QVC let me tell you old folks this right here let you keep in touch with your done gosh-darn their grandkids alike they should advertise on QVC seriously I think they would actually sell a fair number because it's not a bad idea no it's not not at all it's just I'm not the target market no I'm not either but it is not about it I poke fun at it a little bit my grandpa's not the target audience either he tries to be tech savvy but I know quite a few older people that would just don't want to have anything to do with it if they can just press a few buttons they're good no it's funny because my mom thinks she's tech-savvy but if I handed her that she probably couldn't figure it out my mom yeah my mom doesn't watch the live stream though so your mom watches which is I know why you're saying she did know she could figure that it lets mom watches the live stream just I think absolutely awesome okay why don't we do a little bit of Twitter Q he's kidding oh I wish I had a picture of it my mom's getting a superboss mechanical keyboard so both will unbox it for sure yeah okay just tuned in is that your new office no we're moving to the new place in about three weeks we were filming a video and kind of took over the other area yeah we were filming the build guide for the Intel sponsored build guide that we have upcoming so the entire garage has been torn apart our height adjustable table is where our normal table is this table is in our fastest possible set and our microphone is here so yet like you guys here this is actually this white wall back here is the set for a fast as possible on tech cookie yeah so there you go are you yeah OAP are not ready for tablets at least they can hit what they see though my grandparents just got broadband she is not ready for this fair enough James hello to South Africa I tried out a few mechanical keyboards at Micro Center blues are my favorite switches top blue switch keyboards honestly any blue switch keyboard is hard to go wrong pretty much if they're making a blue switch keyboard they probably have pretty good build qualities at this point in time fair bit of chat in the forum there was uh there was what's your favorite switch thread lot of people are validating Corsair stance that Reds are for gaming yeah saying that they get they get hand fatigue finger fatigue from gaming on blues or Browns anything with tactile feedback weed I've never gamed for that long so I have I want greens which are heavier okay well my hands are gonna get fatigued it's just not gonna happen from pressing pressing key switch down I know maybe that's a thing it's just not a thing with me can't really comment on future products guys I muted the Big Bang Theory to watch you that's good because Big Bang Theory has a laugh track and maybe we should add one I tried to get off-screen for them I don't think we did good thanks well we should have a laugh track to our just like just whenever things are not funny yeah we'll be like EI and they'll be like that one chick in the last track that's like we should record our own terrible laugh track just get a whole bunch people we know and record our own you know it's funny because like half the time we're having conversations off-camera about how to make the livestream like more professional and like more like an actual show and then when we actually like get down to it what we're thinking of doing record here olestra it's all like the worst possible ideas you could possibly have for a show we could make a show called all the things that shows shouldn't be and then yeah be alright we must be this one yeah you're late your time changes all the time you set changes all the time topics are not usually ready hey we have topics like pretty darn ready for we did good this week well it helps that I was preparing them in the car for like an hour and a half as we drove back you can see I accent building a new Intel PC soon is unreleased product a better than unreleased product B or didn't come on am I supposed to say we don't know yet my friend wants to get a new graphics card to play the latest games at 1920 by 1080 for example battlefield 3 what GPU budget is four hundred and sixty dollars first of all what kind of a budget is four hundred and sixty dollars that's oddly specific for how high it is yeah it's like it's one thing if people are like I have 75 dollars to spend you kind of go okay four hundred and sixty could he spare another twenty three cents anyway at that price point buy yourself a seventy eight fifty or honestly like isn't 70 or seventy eight fifty sorry seventy no it's kind of confusing is 7950 just the card to buy it's crushing I don't like every game test we do 7950 just wins and you know it's funny because the comments on the latest one who are you guys are always testing AMD gaming evolved titles not testing any Nvidia titles it's like AMD's giving away like eight games with the 7990 games when they're giving away with cards a lot of the time yes and NVIDIA is giving away one game right now we will test Metro last light and we will task last light definitely we will but it's like we can't do anything about the fact that every hot title right now is a gaming of all title and it's funny because the same thing happened not that long ago when every title was a way it's meant to be played titled Lotus you don't just need gaming of all time releasing one yeah anyway we will test many lastly don't worked up today you are stressed out but in in that bracket they have 660ti and our 660ti was like the original beast power edition one yes so you would think that that card should be able to run with it but do you like be like golden sample of that category but it's the 7950 just and like 79 78 79 70 doesn't really perform that much better especially when you overclock them both which you should that yeah that jump right there isn't interesting so speaking of your friend wanting to play battlefield 3 um he can't very likely you can't right now maybe if he wants to enjoy the single-player campaign which is single-player even working you have to go through battle log to launch campaign okay so tell them what's going on cuz they don't know I haven't read this entire article but from what I heard it's not in here yeah just talking about it I'm just gonna go off throw of my head then what I think is happening because I read a little bit is that I don't know if it's just EA as a whole or it's like battle law origins section or if it's just battlefield 3 section I don't know how this is exactly is be going down but a lot of people I don't know if it's everyone I'm pretty sure it's just a lot of people can't actually connect to battlefield 3 so connection to EA servers blah blah error 1 so Jays response is that there's been it sounds like there's been some kind of a targeted attack on their servers that's been holding them down for what about a week now oh really people are not happy you know and so what my theory is that all the guys who were attacking our forum are attacking yeah now it's my theory it's about a week since we've had like serious downtime speaking of the forum guys if you are not members of the Linus tech tips com forum go sign up right now raise it everyone go right yeah everyone go right now and sign up and we're gonna see how she handles it you know even if you are already signed up go and just like hang out yeah let's have a let's have a bro session on the forums bro session on the forum everyone go hang hang out go to general post about what's going on yeah let's just see what happens cuz we're we're kind of curious we have made some serious upgrades to the infrastructure that's going on so to put this in context since January we have gone from hosting the forum on a weaksauce computer at my house like under my desk yeah to hosting on a beast computer with six cores of CPU and forty eight gigs of RAM at NCIX to outgrowing that to hosting it at a data center to outgrowing that to changing our software and everything just generally getting better and and still hosting it at a data center with lengua a bajillion cpu cores and all the good things that are going on so things are seriously going well for the forum so many people are joining it's honestly like would you say anecdotally in terms of typing a question and expecting to get an answer in a timely manner it's the best form you've ever been on probably for me because I've had problems in the past or if I have a difficult enough question I don't even bother ask because I'm like by the time I get a proper answer this I probably will it figured it out yep or if you have a super simple question that you're afraid to ask you get flamed and flame everything's been just destroyed and I don't see any that on this forum not flaming we've had a few random threads well I've seen the answered not be almost immediate right yeah few not that many but a few but guys if you have a tech question I have a lot of people still sending me like private messages on YouTube or Facebook messages guys I can't I get hundreds of messages a day it's too much for me and I'm a very small fraction of how much he gets I mean it's one of those things where it's like I love you guys and I want to answer every question and I read them all because it gives me ideas for making videos but it's one of those things where either I can be asked Jeeves like ask Linus calm you type in an answer and I just sit chained to a computer desk and reply to all the questions or I can be Linus tech tips the guy who actually makes videos and you can watch videos about the things that are going to do with the tech industry so yea though those are those are pretty much the two options um yeah so let's have a look hasn't Sloan down at all we have one thousand sixty five users on right now five hundred and thirteen members five hundred and forty four guests you got y'all got nothing so anyway you tried you tried so guys do hang out on the forum we're we're thinking of issuing a challenge we should do a video about it it's it's coming soon coming soon okay okay but soon there'll be and so if you guys are early to this then you'll be that much awesomer but we're gonna be issuing the make Linus tech tips forum your homepage challenge we have we have a few interesting changes that we want to do to it that'll make it easier to have it at your homepage yeah which and so yeah so the places that are most active guys general discussion news is super active honestly I started getting most of my news from - tech tips forums pretty cool it's kind of awesome great community contributions and news guys so like if you're there you're you're actually you maybe not up to the minute but you're kind of up to the hour and you don't have to deal with the terrible site design on reddit com I'm on a roll here taking shots at EA - I bet read it just like destroys me now yeah I don't think Britta's - what it's efficient the community there is awesome you have a site design not as awesome issues okay why don't we agree that the community is awesome and the site design is at least this far away from the community is awesome this level it's very efficient the reason why dig fell behind is because they've changed too many things and it was no longer efficient okay I agree that it's hard to change something about a hyper popular site what would you change about Reddit it's so efficient the whole thing is about the front page and it's very very very efficient everything is laid out very nicely and cleanly ok but what about finding stuff that isn't on the front page the search function actually works really well and if you go to a subform again very clean okay I couldn't figure out what any of the sub reddits were there's like a bajillion sub reddits that have seemingly zero documentation that's not good site design look on the right yeah there's some stuff there but there's a how many aren't there well that's not site design that's the person who created the subreddit putting in less information okay well why don't we just agree to disagree on this one all right I don't think the site design is actually that bad it's not interesting it's not that pretty but it's very efficient and it's very good at doing what it tries to do which is be efficient speaking of Reddit found a fantastic post on reddit about the u.s. banning the blueprints for a 3d printable gun yeah if someone wants that to be online that will be online like dumb bro that's what he's trying to do oh I have no idea what this person is doing anyways yeah it's one one site to be online that'll be online it'll be some way okay the entire the entire reddit thread is just like people being like I didn't even hear about this I downloaded it because I can because they told me not to like you know what that's how the internet works I mean remember the Anarchist Cookbook yeah yes everywhere it's like it's like one of those things where it's like how hard was it to get a copy you ban it and you make it more popular yes the only reason why people okay the only reason I heard about this especially yes but my people hear about certain things is because they get banned I did not hear about the Anarchist Cookbook until they banned it and I was like oh that's kind of neat I wonder if I can find oh there it is right there and and on everyone's USB thumbdrive at school at the time because it was like because one of those things were it's like I didn't go to school if anyone who was gonna blow anything up no it was just idle curiosity because they banned it why was this band I want to know that's in here that's not bad yeah it's like and we're not promoting anarchy and I'm not actually even saying necessarily but I think 3d printed guns are the greatest thing ever because I don't all words saying is banning things won't work internet dirt my god what was I what was B role saying on the way on the way back that Beyonce's a PR I was trying to get all like the unflattering images of her off being removed from the internet like okay hey Beyonce's not that attractive like so many stars it's all about getting the right angle with the right makeup and the right lighting and Heche it doesn't have a whole lot to do on the right four days worth of Photoshop and there yes exactly there's a whole lot of that going on don't kid yourself and there's yeah it's like you can't remove like pictures from the internet so it's going as far as like pictures of her while she's singing and on stage and doesn't look good and trying to get them removed like not gonna work do you yeah someone needs to explain the Internet to Beyonce as well beyond Beyonce if you're watching that's not how the internet works by the way you have a lot of money we can sit here and explain how the internet works yeah a consultancy yeah right we'll take all that money try and buy EA and turn it into a successful time okay so to start with the Internet is a series of tubes never gets I know I love it guys if you haven't seen it it's some US Senator or something this the subtitle for our networking forum is a series of two is it really yeah that's almost as good as the troubleshooting for him I had someone specifically send me a tweet saying how much they loved the subtitle of ours of our troubleshooting forum it's help I need somebody help this do we have not just anybody but not just anybody yeah okay I added that so it was more easily recognizable there we go okay so moving on to our our first community news item because pretty much all of the news items are community news items this week check this she is out so AMD has gone full 360 here and I actually meant 360 you know how half the time people say 360 they actually mean 180 yeah yeah I've done it yeah it's like I turned around 360 degrees on that issue oh so you have the same stance so yeah no not actually that they've done a 360 here so initially their next generation products were going to be 8000 series they were gonna be released in 2013 then they came out and said no new GPUs in 2013 then they went released 77 90 which is 2 is a 7000 series by name but not much more than that it's a different architecture it has been tweets somewhat so then there was that and then there's the 7990 which isn't a new GPU I don't know but is a new card so they release that no new GPUs I believe they did say no new GPUs okay so 790 doesn't technically break it but then check this out so there's a couple references this was submitted by T bold I don't know how he wants us to pronounce that or she not sure um so there's a couple of references here but basically the 8000 series for desktops might be skipped entirely and that's not the first time this kind of thing has happened Nvidia didn't do a gtx 300 series yeah confused that was weird you know they they changed naming schemes all the time AMD went from X 800 to X 1,800 if I recall correctly she's like okay I guess so they skipped like ten generations there so so apparently they're thinking of skipping 8,000 series for desktop there's already 8000 series for notebooks but they are purely rebrands okay and apparently the only 9000 series might be released in December 2013 might it'll be manufactured at 20 nanometer according to the rumors this is all allegedly and so there should be less power consumption heat output more performance per watt and it'll be paired with a new architecture so what this could mean allegedly is that we're getting not only a die shrink but also an architecture change at the same time big risk potentially big reward they certainly had a long time to work on it yeah in fact internally they may have already finished an 8000 series design which might have been a die shrunk 7000 series and then just decided not to bother because maybe it didn't perform that much better with the die shrink you saw what happened with Intel and their latest die shrink where they're not actually getting a whole lot more clock speed out of the chips they're saving on power consumption but they're not necessarily getting a ton more performance we saw this with Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge could have been that did we respond okay let's just not do this let's wait and you look it's been almost two full graphics card develops release cycles maybe we'll just do 9,000 serious so maybe that's what's happening this is all allegedly supposedly according to rumor I know nothing for sure about this if I did I would not be talking about it just to end up really quickly about that battlefield 3 being offline thing that was talking about earlier for anyone who wants more information about that because I was not conclusive I just tweeted out the URL link that I had for it so I'm aim DS chief technology architect John Keller apparently said blah blah blah sea islands encompasses the ps4 chip as well as new mobile chips and Bonaire GPU found in the seventies so ninety I bring this up because it shows people inside AMD continue to work hard along hours to deliver great products etc etc amongst the term well shown in the press so the next generation is coming this year and shaping up nicely is what he says when you name products after places it leads to interesting thoughts about where to hold the events surrounding the namesake product it would be really cool if they did an event on a volcanic island it'd be a real shame if all their engineers died in the volcano so AMD if anyone's watching maybe just do it somewhere else that's they'll be pretty beast though take some risk don't worry about it so anyway that's really cool news I mean AMD / - did you see their stock actually I haven't looked at it since then maybe it's gone down a bit but still boom is it still exploding no I'm saying oh but still it went boom went up a lot they seem to be firing on at least one cylinder now which is more than they were before they were it was when we not even that long ago wow we had this live stream running it was pretty scary looking pretty dire a few lashings were we almost hinted - like oh god they've got all the game devs on board now with the graphics cards they've got releases like coming when it looked like they weren't gonna release anything yeah very very exciting stuff so I'm really stoked to check out 9000 series hopefully we get one prior to launch so we can bring you guys some launch content so that didn't happen with 79 90 or 77 90 still waiting Andy's trying actually there are guys over there that are trying to get us the allocation so we can show you guys this cool stuff right when it comes out let's move on to our next one which is not a crack at EA and boom I'm gonna need oh okay no bad language on the as a huge lover of the Assassin's Creed series okay well so this was posted without probably too much helpful information by XE your face on the forum for that matter oh crap I don't think I I don't think I called out our oh yeah no I did but there you go Assassin's Creed creator and designer fired allegedly by Ubisoft so there's a bit more to the story than that and Patrice has said that they fired him Ubisoft has said they parted ways due to a difference in creative direction or some some corporate speaks something along those lines so he designed and created the Assassin's Creed franchise which is the favorite gaming franchise of at least one of the people in this room it's it ties guys schools without this cold okay okay so there's that however so his his statement has been they fired him unjustly he's only been back for two months because he left back in 2010 to go to THQ and then he's been back for a couple months we were not sure what he was working on Forbes his article so speculated that maybe he had a disagreement with the yearly release cycle proposed for Assassin's Creed I think we've talked about that on the live stream before we talked to I don't know if Lucifer's has discrete okay anyway yearly release cycles is like oh no yeah we didn't talk about it for sauces good I mean that's insane it's like could you be any more public about we're just gonna milk this I don't mind if they come quickly and they're good but fixing the release cycles is no I hate that fixing dates like release it when it's done bring it on like throw more people at the boil and make it fast yeah awesome yeah but if there's a problem like don't do a fixed date please don't do a fixed date I'm fixable the game and then release it so there's some speculation maybe he didn't like that there's some speculation that he was actually working on completely different things internally and it has nothing to do with that but one way or another he came out and made a statement that went ah shoot I forget his wording and I don't have that on there but something along the lines of I'll defend myself my team in my game and there will be some kind of action but no one really knows what it is up till now so uh so there you go very very interesting so that's out of Ubisoft Montreal so my my Canadian my Canadian Bros all right you've got some sort of stuff to figure out over there why do we do a little bit of Twitter Q&A sure sorry guys I know Twitter Q&A is just sort of random but it is what it is so there you go and random is what it is hey Ryan hi Ryan ah they also fired the producer of Assassin's Creed ok so it wasn't just one person that's interesting part owing a bit from the increases thank you James I am doing a 32 crucial m4 raid 1 array no it's a terrible idea with 3 or 4 raid cards 48 SSDs maybe in the future you do not need a raid 1 array with SS let me tell you that if you're using for high-performance raid cards which I'm assuming you are you will actually probably do just as well with something like even a raid 6 because you'll be able to do a massive random performance with an array like that I mean honestly you don't even probably need that many SSDs like to max out the performance you could probably even go for SSDs per card or something along those lines I really interested what is use cases for what do you do if you need raid 1 grade reliability why are you using consumer SSDs something you should be asking yourself especially when he's buying 48 48 SSDs I maybe in the future okay I heard a rumor there's an enterprise-grade SSD coming that's gonna be very reasonably priced from not crucial can't say who it is but it should be coming soon cool maybe kind of like an enthusiast sort of diamond in the rough skew cool I'm going to sleep now 2 a.m. in the Netherlands good night Bart bird what games are you guys looking forward to why don't we buy all this hardware what game are you looking forward to besides Blood Dragon which you haven't played yet no but it's out so I can't exactly look you can look forward to it I guess I can little baby freakin accepted it said in the past so I'm looking forward to 2007 Back to the Future all over again well other schools online but I'm hesitantly looking forward to that because of some of the problems that we have I'm gonna try and not talk about this as much as I possibly can black flag so we've gone through the my 2 favorite series which we already talked about it sounds a good life like it's me like pirate version of Assassin's Creed throw pirates barrel pirates ok yeah not like pirated no hear about the piracy game of piracy or like it was the game about losing a game dad it was the game dev and if you pirated it they pirated your game in the game so you could never be a successful game developer if you pirated the game yeah it was brilliant yeah and so there was all these people complaining on the forums about this I was an indie game and I he released all the stats so he had a non-personally identifiable like tracker in the game that reported back cult phoned home and let him know if it was a pirate real copy and it was some massive percentage of of the games that were being played were pirated and then what happened is it was like game dev tycoon kind of thing like game dev sim and so people would reach a point where their company would get to this size and then they'd never be profitable because everyone would pirate their game so they were posting on the forums I can't figure out how to get past this part it's like this is ridiculous everyone just pirates my game I can't be successful yeah and then the irony was like that that guy's having trouble making ends meet because he can't be successful because everyone guys you pirated his game anyway sure so pirate version of Assassin's Creed do you think that's frustrating in the game that's frustrating in real life let me tell you as someone trying to run their own business these days like the amount of stress that you go through without people stealing your work yeah is a lot another thing that I'm really look really looking forward to is a I'm really still talking about this sequel of outline Miami ok you even plead that either no it's amazing how do you know anything about the Razer Ouroboros disappearing no no okay fine I'm playing games 670 power edition or should I get the 7950 you know what either of them's a great choice 7950 has had the edge lately in our testing particularly once overclocked yoloswag 4g of age jesus is the new official life's no it isn't first time watching live yeah Ivan tuning in tonight my boyfriend watches you guys hi Elizabeth and boyfriend that was the Ryan told you should be a it's a great investment not just not just something to do with is yeah a verb now I'm just gonna EA that it could mean anything release it ahead of schedule there won't be any support you won't be able to actually access it I'm gonna run the ground I'm at yet if I'm not done something I can just submit a corrupted file and be like oh that's just II ate let's inspect this and I'll be like uh I'm not commenting so if anyone from EA is watching guys we do need sponsors for the show come on down why don't we move on to our next topic this this is very interesting so this is another forum submitted topic so check this out guys yeah I said this so remember one power supply so this is from list Fisker list Fisker yeah it's from Norway so dude you're cool we love you we love Norway your name so Lisp Fisker from Norway says has well compatibility of course their power supplies has been released which leads us to an interesting topic so most power supplies are ready to go with as well some are still to be confirmed and might need some tweaks to function silverstone has come out and said all of theirs are working i see sonic i believe has a compatibility list as well and there's a good reason for this now back when I was getting into computers a350 smart blue that came with the Antec LAN boy was a pretty good power supply and if you really wanted you could get yourself a true blue and that might be a 430 or even a 480 watt fancy but then all of a sudden after that it was this arms and before that it was like you know anywhere from 150 is sort of 250 watt like there was this progression and then after that it becames arms race to bigger wattages ocz changed the game with the power stream 520 watts there was also a power stream 600 watt but it had two 12-volt rails which meant that with SLI configuration sometimes it didn't work so the 520 watt was the really well-regarded one after that ultra had the 1300 watt power supply it was like an external thing or maybe that wasn't all try remember there was Wi-Fi remember that though like you actually needed two plugs in it and for it to even output the maximum power you had to have it hooked up to two circuits in your house if you were in North America I remember seeing build logs with it must be like what do you what are you doing and then case manufacturers released cases that accepted to power supply's so Silverstone's tjo seven my case it's like I use to the extra space for radiators but you could put two thousand watts favored stone Striders in there you could have two thousand watts of power anyway so it got kind of ridiculous for a bit with wattage then the efficiency race came 80 plus 80 plus bronze eighty plus silver gold platinum plutonium I don't want to plutonium I thought I said opinion that's titanium who cares um so the point is efficiency became a big thing but now now what it might be all about and the way 80-plus works is that it's actually there is no rating for how efficient the power supplier has to be below twenty percent load and what's funny is any thousand watt power supply isn't gonna touch twenty percent load might not even break ten percent load with a modern system running a Haswell CPU and a next-generation graphics card because they're getting so good at turning down the power at idle so when you're browsing the web your computer probably doesn't suck a hundred Watts from the wall so all of a sudden has well particularly with its sleep states is going to be much more sensitive to how the power supply performs at extremely low loads then it's going to be to how it performs at high loads which is what 80-plus has been all about so I don't know how this is gonna work because right now manufacturers are basically just putting like a has well ready certification on it I was kind of like the old p4 ready where it had that connector and it had the the beefier 12 volt rail because those CPUs were drawing so much power and it was game-changing now they're drawing so little power you're gonna need a high quality power supply but not the same way you did before where it's like massive wattage massive efficiency at high loads you're gonna want massive efficiency and great performance with low ripple and low noise at very low power consumption what if this means we're gonna see a lot of like maybe smaller in wattage and size because of the smaller cases easy marmosets more passive more passive more smaller in size more smaller and wattage but very feature-rich power supplies things like what Corsair is implementing with their ax I series where you've got you know volt monitoring and temperature monitoring and more like more like bringing more value to the power supply as opposed to figuring out how to stuff more watts in it so to speak yeah I know that's not actually how power works you don't stuff more watts in something he's beer all over there he's working no he's probably on his own workstation I would make way more sense that makes way more sense yeah why did he even set up diesels thank you had to get some stuff off the computer makes sense see this is why I hate people to think for me clearly not capable of it anyway so so there that's a really interesting thing about Haswell so even though you have an awesome power supply it may not work with as well so watch out check with your manufacturer make sure it works most of the good manufacturers should have most of the power supplies working so let's take a moment and do a little bit of twitter twitter uh paying attention this plutonium 1.21 jigowatts oh that's probably whole areas oh we're not we can't click we're not clicking on this what about SPRO hilarious um I actually don't drink coffee can you imagine what I'd be like if I drank coffee Oh be scary actually I consume no stimulants no energy drink is probably control on the roof like I don't need it no I didn't even get that much sleep last night like first time watching from Norway what are you thoughts um windows blue we've actually talked about windows blue a little bit some of the features that are coming there was a preview that the verge broke the news about imma take sort of wait-and-see approach you know what normally I'd be upset about this Shawn because that's a cheap shot that is a really cheap shot but after the lockout I don't care and ten percent of people know what we're talking about Oh hockey hockey so the San Jose Sharks beat the Vancouver Canucks in four hockey games consecutively meaning the Vancouver Canucks can no longer win the Stanley Cup which is the coveted prize it's a jock jockstrap different kind of cup sorry my bad anyway normally I'd care but I just didn't yeah I just didn't care Oh apparently I really need to read list Fiske earns last post on that has wall compatibility topic so we're gonna go ahead and move down to where he has posted some additional stuff ah apparently Johnny guru came on to OSI 3d and told him off for messing up his name oh no oh wow did you really spell Johnny guru like that okay just so you guys know Johnny guru is the website to go to for power supply reviews you can come look at our unboxing and we're gonna show you some you know what the cable sleeving quality looks like and what connectors are on it how long they are in - arm lengths if you want to know anything about a power supply actually Johnny guru.com they do the best power supply reviews Bar None everything else is basically worthless compared to what they do you can quote me on that we don't do it that's part of the reason why we don't do why bother like why bother we'll just put in system it'll look cool and we'll talk about how it looks and then and we'll talk about what we read on Johnny guru because guys if you want to know anything about a power supply if Johnny guru recommended it and it got even like seven out of ten or better it's probably safe it's fine buy it I'd be confident if it got nine out of ten or ten out of ten on Johnny guru that's B's one be prepared to pony up because I tell you that is a well-built power supply and number two be confident because it's awesome okay so anyway sort of back to back to Twitter I would catch a live stream several times but either I've overslept or had problems with my live with my laptop I'm trying I'm trying to scroll down and having trouble twitter needs to just calm down have you heard about that one keyboard model disappearing - no yes well exactly um loving the street I think he thought the Ouroboros was a keyboard loving the stream tonight guys first time tuning in live hila guy the guy Luke whatever your name is watching live stream from Kuwait speaking of Kuwait it was uh crap miss Syria right Syria's no internet yeah no internet I mean I don't gets back now but Syria just disappear from the internet like which was just bizarre so Syria yeah Middle Eastern country internet went down basically they just like turned it off and everyone was constant here going like what holy crap can you imagine so I'm not gonna get into the political ramifications of all of that because honestly I am NOT that well versed in it and we're not those people yeah however what I would like you guys to reflect on is in the last twenty years basically how pervasive the Internet has become in your life isn't it mind-boggling what if the internet was turned off in your country like my job would just be impossible I know I couldn't do my job for like mail people DVDs right it's like we'd have to be we'd have to be uh oh crap what was that star something what was that DVD service the the mailing mail rental DVD thing oh crap I have to look it up it was like it was like something like Club or DVD mail rental service or like you had to buy them or something oh okay hopefully someone can tell me on Twitter maybe it was something something club I don't know it wasn't it was an old thing it was it was kind of on the same level as like AOL CDs I was like there were always pamphlets for this stupid thing and I was like anyway that's what tech tips will become we'll just we'll mail you the latest unboxings on like a monthly basis you know no big deal but yeah what would it even oh yeah oh no I don't know if this is true I don't know this is true but apparently if you go bankrupt in game device tycoon ea buys you I kind of have a feeling I have a feeling that's not true but it'd be hilarious yeah bro do you even a watching lay live for the second time it's 4:00 a.m. thank you for bearing with us on this no on this here live streaming is pretty tough Ram for budget gaming buy whatever what about the Steam donation what about a steam donation for Linus tech tips or you can test with more recent games honestly what recent games do we not test with the only things I can think of I mean we did BioShock Infinite we did Tomb Raider we did we jumped over mark by 3 Crysis 3 we jumped over we're gonna do Metro last light dart right start track in I know a few people asked for that but it's not like a huge like okay it's pretty big but it's not it's not on the level of like Bioshock and I have a segue yeah sure um so speaking of Star Trek they tried to do an MMO at one point yeah which is sort of like wow because every MMO is sort of like wow and Wow lost 1.3 million subscribers in q1 2013 wrap your brain around that Wow lost more subscribers in q1 then most MMOs will ever get so I still have a beast amount ok yes they still have 8 million it's down from the peak of 12 million and I've seen some posts on the forum actually this was a this was a forum post so I want to make sure that I give credit where credit's due just to interject again quickly after you this was up we basically just crashed Johnny guru oh no it works really it's still it doesn't fully work some things aren't loading we go great site when it works takes about four or five minutes fantastic site go there some other time sorry Donny sorry but you're awesome man and Oklahoma wolf the guy who was doing most of the reviews when I was reading a lot more on there is awesome two great writing style very funny anyway so I can't find the thread I'm sorry to whoever posted this thread on the forum you're awesome and and I hurt you someone will find it hopefully someone will find it and tweet it you know hashtag - you forgot or something like that hashtag I don't know man I'm just tweeted at you they could but I don't know if everyone will see it got me and I'll retweet it calm down there's a thread on the forum where people were saying that it's kind of in between new content right now so it might not be indicative of sort of you know anything that crazy but think about it this way over the course of a month then having 1.3 million fewer subscribers based on if everyone was paying $15 a month would be almost twenty million dollars of revenue that's basically profit when you consider that they have to invest in the infrastructure they have to invest in the content there's a lot of dev there's a lot of support there's a lot of four there eight million existing subscribers they already have to do all that crap anyway so that 20 million was the profit if you think about it that way or was basically profit because they had to do all that other stuff anyway that is HUGE on the bottom line of Activision I mean they're basically saying don't worry about it we're still number one you know it's okay it's cool but here are a few things that I wanted to discuss if while we're to stumble would something just as quickly pop up to take its place as a paid game would something be able to take its place we people even be willing to pay for an MMO anymore I wish would they be I I would personally I'm full I don't like pay to play I'm very very against pay to play yeah because almost every single pay to play system no matter how you look at it has at least a little bit of pay to win it might not be that much amazing kro transactions versus subscription-based yes okay oh sorry probably shouldn't sorry microtransactions worse then then subscription-based description firstly I don't mind subscription-based everyone's on equal playing field no matter what okay that's true always like doesn't matter and everything you get in the game is earned the same way that everyone else would earn yes okay with micro transactions no matter to what scale unless it is only cosmetic and I've even with only League of Legends is largely cosmetic towards that so you can still unlock champions within certain game roads like the new around game mode that they came up with can make things better for you because if there are clearly better setups of teams in a ROM and you don't get to pick your champion it's all random all mid so you got random a champion so if you're just the free week champions you had a disadvantage compared to people that have specifically really good champions on air right okay a few people will come at me and be like that's not the main game mode all because it doesn't matter a ton of people play it right it still even though it's not competitive on a tournament level it's no competitive when you're just playing with your buddies okay so so paying to enhance the enjoyment experience okay so so riddle me this then after Wow basically sort of perfected it so to speak is there really any innovation left in MMO because you've got Eve as sort of your your hardcore and I know you've got World of Warcraft as sort of your accessible MMO you've got all these skeletons so many Age of Conan look how long Star Wars The Old Republic was was subscription-based what was it a few months I mean is there is the is not so much is there any innovation left because I think there's a Novation left and I think part of the problem with mmo's is that they're not innovating I think star citizen might be a way for pretty story for swords yeah might be a way for chris roberts to really show that there's still room for a massively multiplayer experience to innovate and be different but is it because all wild clones and our Studios gonna be willing to invest what it would take to design a new king from their own from the ground up to replace Wow if it faltered before I before I comment on that and interject this is completely different conversations I don't really want to go to it but I hate the I hate the term wild clone but that's a completely different topic anyways I don't really think so I think studios will drop a bunch of money ESO is dropping a whole bunch of money but I don't at the same time people complaining about the potential graphics problems so they might not have dropped the amount of money that they should have we won't know until we get open beta yeah but like everything else to be able to even if it's Elder Scrolls you think it'll be moddable at all not textures I don't know but I know there will be add-ons available okay okay so anyway okay carry on anyways just don't get too much into that um I don't think it'll happen not on the scale that WoW was because if you look at the timeline for MMO releases Wow was perfect right Ultima and EQ were old right there was nothing else really really big on the table okay Wow dropped everyone that was tired of Ultima EQ because it was really old moved to WoW and then they just crushed it it was a big enough pool of people that when new things came out at the beginning it didn't matter because all your friends played wow and you want to play with your friends so everyone wouldn't play wow they exploded they were massive and I was taking forever them for them to die because it's still depending on your playstyle a good game there's still a lot of people to play it I don't like it 8 million people there's a ton of you'll play it so I liked a classic Wow way more but ok I don't think it'll happen because to create that again there's so many mmo's that are coming out all the time right you can't hit that time so we might end up with a more fragmented type of market I don't think it's gonna be the massive one game experience that it basically was when wow first came out right so then we might be a bit more like a cyclical thing because you look at something like okay let's look at anything let's look at the development of the graphics processing unit when it started there was one yeah then there was a couple then everyone in there dog got in and then there was then hick'ry consolidated so maybe we're so so at the beginning there was really only a couple yeah okay and then there was the one dominant one for a long time then maybe it's time for the end of that I mean well it's the end of the one dominant one then it's spread out like crazy so basically you could actually couple in the very few that were at the beginning and the one dominant one probably into the same bracket right into the same sort of present I not many yeah and then success tons yeah and then too many so it narrows back down that's actually a really that might actually help you so many things are like that I mean it's been done time and time and time and time and time again by the way that was actually Kilmer that posted the Wow thing okay Kilmer was this coming was a mod on our forum and he has stepped down because he just doesn't have time which is that's cool that's cool we totally get it yeah yeah a blizzard is busy with a new MMO called titan should be a ground up game at if there's anyone who can do it again it'll be Blizzard but there's also gonna be so much more scrutiny on it oh my goodness with that said Blizzard has shown they're committed to fixing stuff yeah yep yeah three is apparently a much better experience than it whatever that is well I haven't actually stepped back and played it but I've definitely heard that from not a small group of people and like Titan like you just said scrutiny that thing will be combed with like a brick people will find combed with the brick people mean like everything will be looked at combed with a brick okay that's fine tooth comb that's a quotable no this is beyond somebody mean this please I'm trying to explain combed with a brick to me okay comb there's fine-tooth comb beyond that this is like brick brick tooth come here you're fired nope no you're fired oppa that got it gotta say Linus from felon you're gonna be careful when you tell half-a-million people about a website well he's a little bit exaggerating I think right around 3,500 by the way thank you so much guys we are overwhelmed that there are so many people tuning in to the live stream you guys all rock that is huge I mean I was marveling the other day you were showing me day nine stream where he had what about 12 k people watching or something like that I don't remember I think he's like ten point five ten point five and I was just like you know what I feel huge just when a third as many people is day nine tune in to watch me so I was a beast I felt pretty cool about that I know we're not asking for as much of a time commitment as him and we don't stream as much as him all that kind of stuff but I still felt cool where are the cool shades cool shades closely it's can you reach them your arms are longer than mine yes okay I'm gonna wear the cool shades for the rest of the stream but you broke I didn't fully break them these are my glasses uh I was wearing them in some video where we're standing there jumping and he's wearing his boots and they never ended up releasing the segment either no we should release it just as like a DVD like behind the scenes I got bumped in the face and they fell off my face and between under his boots and now they no they say I think I knock them off your face yes yeah I was a saving face thank you thank you you just said face a lot yeah your face um one of my mom's just brought up a good think Daisy that kind of happened with Daisy there was one but it was like everyone make a zombie survival game yeah and now it's kind of coming back down again coming back down to just a few that survived survived I can't take you seriously your glasses her so uh the zombie game zombie apocalypse at what point do games that were dead come back from the dead and steal back the title I actually can't take you seriously I don't know if it looks it doesn't look as bad in the feed it looks ridiculous when I look at them head-on it's probably worse I think it's the angle that helps a little bit right seems like it could be anyway why don't we just why don't we just get back to Twitter here um any good gaming headsets and mice to buy that are around 60 80 bucks lots of good mice razer deathadder 2013 edition 6400 dpi optical gaming mouse great rubber grips on the sides that's on at NCIX for $59.99 it's you do 15 or 16 mm as for gaming headsets honestly you can get a Siberia v2 for that price it's comfy its lightweight it sounds okay gaming headsets really aren't way to go if you want a great audio experience with the exception of the SteelSeries 7h and some of Sennheiser's higher-end stuff but you're not going to get any of those things for sixty to eighty dollars yeah or if you have a big head because the Sennheiser 7h is not good for people with big heads um okay so frostbite says he thinks Guild Wars 2 does mm all the best you can buy the game for a price my brother I haven't played Guild Wars 2 but my brother loves Guild Wars 2 he plays it casually he finds the experience is just you jump in and you can just kind of go around and do whatever you want and it's it's he finds it like relaxing and nice instead of like just the oh my god everything's going on all the time these Blood Pact says don't even complain about lack of innovation if you didn't even try the secret rule which I did not so we just got told also didn't we just got told Guild Wars 1 apparently had four million active users at one time um I suppose Jonny's fourth post since you registered back in 2010 Wow pwned so hard electronic mass production by Zeo I think it's supposed to be EA apparently in that game oh ok so back to news items we have a ton this week paid YouTube subscriptions they be here so this was posted by speed stacks 79 he didn't really give us any sort of an editorial on it but there you go so you can check out the paid channels there's prices ranging from $1 to sort of just under $10 and sort of anything in between I'd like to say one thing at the beginning here and hopefully you guys can take me seriously in spite of these glasses - tech tips will never be a paid channel so there you go written in blood as far as I'm concerned unless YouTube forces everyone to take paid subscriptions which I really don't see because I'm sure we can be ad supported as long as we need to be absurd Linus tech tips will not be a paid channel we will always continue to try to take money from corporate sponsors as much as we can to make the channel possible to pay the salaries of the people involved I mean honestly we prefer it that way we'd be willing to do something like a tip jar or a Bitcoin mining pool or even things like kick starters if we need equipment or we wanted something really special we think you guys will benefit but we are not going to do paid subscriptions we might do things like special tags on the forum for contributors all these things but you will always have access to the content online is tech tips no question a public resource yes can sweet consider it like I mean we're doing a service to everyone the way we look at it we're doing a service to the manufacturer by showcasing their product to people we're doing a service to the viewer by showcasing the cool new products that we can get our hands on and show you guys so the way we see it is everyone benefits if as many people watch it as possible and that has always been the philosophy of Linus tech tips so there you go and try ok if you're posting something a new section try to put a little bit of input in please please please input something it's helpful so here we go mr. crisis mm submitted this one about the Galaxy s4 zoom and you know what's hilarious is I predicted this one yep BAM I actually but I don't know if I predicted it cuz I didn't think anyone would make it no but what I said was the only problem with Samsung's Galaxy camera which is basically just an Android powered camera it doesn't have a cell phone in it they had to add such little stuff to it to make it a cell phone yeah and I was like cuz it already had a persistent data connection you could put a sim in it but it just didn't have the calling hardware and I wonder if it was in there and they just didn't enable it like seriously oh no people want this okay yeah but I mean think about this guys if you're a shutterbug or a blogger would you rather have a slim phone that doesn't take that great pictures I mean this one does okay this is the one and honestly the s4 does okay but it'll always be limited by the size of the optics you can put in the bump the distance the size of the sensor you can put in all those things would you rather have a slim phone that takes kind of shoddy pictures or would you rather have a camera that also acts as a phone not everyone's on their phone all the time and it's got a nice big screen on the back just like the galaxy camera so yeah guys post not in this thread in the forum because apparently our site can take the heat what's up Johnny so 16 megapixel camera with a phone built in we're it on the street is Samsung something something blah blah blah okay has an amo LED screen Android jellybean eight gigs memory Bluetooth 4.0 speculation something something something etc etc second do you guys think this is a cool idea you know what I'd like to take let's let's talk to the twitch chat one quick thing it's a wretched hive of scum and villainy but I love it that way plenty 3000 on Australian camera reviewer said that its battery life is not very good scaling around three hours Samsung why you do these things to me it would be nice someone says in twitchchat your glasses are messed up sorry go ahead yeah I do want to do this so talk quickly if you're gonna say something because I want to start talking about twitch chat okay yeah so okay guys so what do you think - fix your glasses I'd prefer the phone take off those glasses give me a shout-out to Mars or something along those lines more memes MMO Neverwinter Kate I something something I prefer the Thicke phone with aggressive battery that's another one we've talked about maybe not even a great camera or maybe you could put a better camera and if you had a thicker so you should unbox the courser 350d we have actually done that it's sitting over there unboxed I just have to upload it and see IX website looks like a child designed it you know what one of my friends actually used to be my boss now we're more friends he doesn't work there anymore designed that website and back when it was designed it was not bad prefer a phone not and a separate camera okay fair enough the twitch chat exploded okay someone's saying put it on slow I prefer the camera but not without battery life okay so there you go we took some feedback from twitch chat today thank you very much guys so let's go back to our net okay what were you gonna say I just I wanted to talk to them before they it's cool that you can at least throw us a minute now and talk on the thing what the battery life is so low that is problem problem although with portable battery packs if your hold net around you probably have some sort of a bag right you could charge it up with a portable battery pack so this right here was submitted by back Grund thank you very much for this awesome submission background as rock is apparently planning to release water-resistant motherboards in their OC formula series associated with the Intel Haswell release what do you think about this is waterproof motherboards the future for water cooling guys are will it be just a new gimmick background I got a you know what I gotta give you credit for giving some some feedback on the topic but I think you got it kind of wrong here unfortunately what this is going to be great for is sub-zero cooling not water cooling when it comes to water cooling the danger is not so much to the motherboard because usually by the time your leak testing your motherboard is vertical and is unlikely to be spilled on the danger is usually to your graphics card or your power supply getting water dripping into it and it can sit there and cause problems by sitting there big problems because distilled water is not inherently conductive but once it sits and gets some soldering flux in it or some metal ion boot that's when you run into trouble but this is great for as guys who are doing sub-zero overclocking where condensation can be a big issue and insulating boards perfectly can be a big difference between that modded board that the overclocker spent hours getting working just right like even days getting working just right working and then dying because one little bit of water got in there condensation boom dead so that's really cool having it be water resistant for extreme overclocking I mean also for extremely humid environments would this be a benefit I don't know it must I know that's a problem maybe I don't know I guess if you spilled your you put in so many huh so many cases have mesh tops you knock your drink over there they have two friends that I know that have done that they're pouring a can of cola on it in the in the picture here but guys just because it's waterproof does not mean it's Cola proof no so people are still in the twitch chat there's like - his glasses are crooked yeah I know and the other really cool thing about this board is HDMI input holy freakin crap how cool is that because some consoles notably the Xbox 360 and you know game streamers are able to utilize this as well do not have DRM so if you had an HDMI input right on your board you know what you capture card costs like a hundred bucks if you had an HDMI input on your board you could actually capture from an external sorry I don't know if this is what they're intending to use it for but that would make this board more gaming optimized than any gaming branded board I've ever seen huh yeah I know that's awesome I mean better audio actually I stand by that better it whatever solutions good but I probably put a sound card in anyway so for me with so many people game streaming these days I'd say putting an HDMI input on your board is a cool way to make it gaming optimized yeah straight which is pretty stupid yeah great features for the overclockers great features for the gamers very cool board with that said as rock is still not really on my list of motherboard manufacturers that I pay too close attention to but if they keep doing cool stuff like this that might turn 360 degrees just kidding guys 180 if you weren't in the live stream earlier you won't get the joke so just calm down I know it's not 360 um this is kind of gross it's very gross this is actually super gross but Alex be on Twitter submitted this to me the the ultimate Canadian computer and I really hope that Canada is not about taxidermy beavers with computers inside them but it's an ITX build very old like crappy components with a taxidermy beaver yes that is a real beaver with a fan in the back let me see if I can skip to the spot where it's like there there's the i/o accessible through like a flap there's the beaver sitting on a desk is that not the scariest thing you guys have ever seen with this beaver sitting next to the monitor here holy freaking schmoly anyway I'm pretty sure this is an older thing but I just I hadn't seen it before so apparently the beaver pick was posted on reddit a couple days ago so it's probably where they saw it but yeah just like the most bizarre thing ever we have almost 3600 live viewers Wow and they all unfortunately had to just see that yeah I'm sorry guys you know what we probably just shouldn't have done that no slit told me not to do it but I did I was like yeah alright so it's time to take another shot a TA oh no this is the biggest one the Walt Disney Company and EA announced multi-year Star Wars games agreement submitted by PC explosion I believe was the first one to submit this on the phone come on I will forgive so many things if you don't screw this up like please don't screw this up come on if anyone from EA is watching just come on they got him take the glasses off no I'm putting them back on that's okay but temporary temporary it's like come on don't screw this up not only that but it's exclusive so the odds of me getting like a remade TIE fighter anytime in the multi-year deal not gonna happen mind you EA is sort of the masters of remaking things yes true maybe if I get a remade TIE fighter out of this EA employees who are watching I will be super stoked that isn't like oh yeah to buy to buy another like ship you need to microtransaction yeah oh you don't have Luke Skywalker content hey $15 yeah okay okay maybe be careful what you wish for I guess because I could I could end up with my game but broke yeah exactly so cuz you're gonna buy everything I totally know I know if someone asked me to spend $500 on a TIE fighter remake with modern graphics but just the exact game maybe throw in multiplayer okay I'd pay $500 for a single-player alone and for multiplayer like for my own personal copy owing him not even slightly surprised you could probably go home you know I can't afford it you'd probably still do it everyone you know I can't afford it you probably saw your bike but I'd do it I would do it like I would do it just four times just for TIE fighter and if this were in the x-wing campaign - OH and like they've got some of their better publishers behind it I mean imagine if they got James Earl Jones to come in and do the Darth Vader voice oh yeah I'm gonna have to go change my pants so anyway under the deal it's exclusive except for a few like lame casual platforms like tablet games or kids games it looks like the dads who gonna be working on it are actually I wrote this down in my thing this are all dice and Bioware yeah we'll be diving the game so this is the lesser of all evils as far as things look yeah he's making a big deal out of how some new Star Wars game is gonna use frostbite who cares as if the engine ever made the game TIE fighter is one of the greatest games ever it looks like ass it doesn't hurt but doesn't hurt but still it's not like I'm looking at it going wow when Darth Vader cut off Luke Skywalker's hands I could really see the blood spurt you couldn't even see any blood in the movie that doesn't make it not a great movie so there's my whole thing anyway so I was willing to give Disney the benefit of the doubt on the whole acquisition as far as movies are going I was actually willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on closing down Lucas arts like I was like okay if they find some great dads to do this maybe they can rejuvenate it but come on this is not oh I would like beg on hands and knees for EA not to screw this up yeah wait let's do it right now okay okay okay okay employees who are watching okay we can we can kneel on the chairs I think it's proper least my chair spinning I'm okay okay okay so okay we're sort of kneeling ei please don't screw so please don't do not oh and like are they even gonna release 1313 which is like probably close to done oh I'm so worried for how this is how many people are tuned in right now oh well we started hitting on EA all the employees left so apparently there were 40 of them watching hopefully we don't get fired okay our last topics before we do our bill Glatt boob long swab build bogs of the week yes I you know I have a lot of potential sponsors this was submitted by Joel the zombie 15 this was actually a while ago I meant to talk about this this last week I think but hmm a lot of the sponsors have sort of asked me how many likes I have on Facebook and sort of things like that I've never done a like like me on Facebook tool and I've never done anything like that I've never really pushed Facebook to me Facebook is one of those things where most of the content on there is stuff that I share that people sent me on Facebook things like builds or like cool pictures or funny things that I think are funny most of my Twitter content goes on there all my Instagram content goes to Twitter which then goes to Facebook so what Facebook is really is it's for people who are Facebook anyway don't feel like following on Twitter don't feel like subscribing on YouTube but still want to have a way to get access to the content and whatever it is I'm talking about so that to me Facebook is like my like like quaternary priority out of everything that I do but a lot of people won't get I'm still gonna sorry so it's so it's primary secondary tertiary quaternary fourth priority so but I'm gonna support it just because I know some people prefer it which is great but I this is this is really funny so what's a facebook like worth because I get questioned by sponsors why don't you have a lot of likes on Facebook you're huge on YouTube you've got a big Twitter following you've got all these things what why are you so small on Facebook and I go well because a facebook life doesn't really mean anything it's been cheapened to the point where what does it even do so UNICEF has launched a bold advertising campaign that takes direct aim perhaps the most ubiquitous form of online activism the Facebook like I like you know people against animals being tortured I mean that's that's great you know what I'm against animals being tortured too and I'm gonna go ahead I'm gonna say that but late last month UNICEF Sweden released three commercials that urge viewers to support humanitarian aid not through posts or shares on social media but through monetary donations Facebook Likes do not save lives they do not save animals they do not save the environment they do not do anything technically it's an X amount of data so the only thing it could possibly do is hurt the environment that's true a hard drive had to be my install Drive had to be created data had to travel along paths energy was consumed so something happened somewhere yeah so anyway there you go we are we are disappointed that anyone ever thought that Facebook Likes actually did anything positive I mean the kinds of things I like on Facebook are things like my local badminton crew yeah it's like because that way when they're trying to attract a sponsor for their tournament or whatever they might have more likes or something they have more legs which they can show them and so there's that but at the at the end of the day like a like has become so meaningless because everyone has turned it into just giving crap away for likes which I've done a couple times on Twitter and I've done a couple times on YouTube so follow the have a chance to win subscribe to have a chance to win but I think the point of those ones is the ongoing dialogue I don't use Twitter as just a way to sell tech tips to a sponsor I don't need it we have three hundred and fifty thousand subscribers on YouTube on one channel alone already we have grown tech quickie in the last three months to 50,000 subscribers which is bigger than most YouTube channels will ever be we're really good at video I don't need to sell subscribers the things I like about social media are the two-way dialogue YouTube comments are a very difficult way for me to interact with you guys whereas Twitter is great for life I'm able to read your tweets in real time almost live-streaming is great for interaction Facebook is okay for interaction I don't like that it's not real time I mean what's great about Twitter is if people tweet me and I'm like laying in bed and I can't sleep I can be like yeah I can reply to some tweets it's cool it's interactive whereas if Facebook Likes and and and Twitter shares and whatever whatever crap it all is is is just a way for me to like pump myself up and beef myself up and make myself look good then it's completely lost the point and that's what a lot of these activists that are sitting at their computers sort of flicking through their feed going like oh yeah baby photos baby photos oh well I don't like starving monkeys come on guys anyway there you go it's like New Age chain mails apparently people want - social media tips believe it or not I'm reasonably good at it so I would be happy to give you guys some social media tips if you're really that into it build blogs of the week here is you know what we're gonna start with our legendary one there was a thread in the forum last week complaining that we do too much legendary build log nests so we're starting with we're starting with the legendary one haha anyway I'm gonna let Slick handle this so this is function down in order to think you think you can handle listen we're showing them it this time which is great I'm gonna go get a drink of water do you want one sure I've been talking a lot in life his parched you're just really energetic today I'm tired we're gonna take it slow yeah that he's gone slow and relaxed this is tech tips fm we're gonna take this exactly at the speed you wanted all right so this is another bill by sniffs Neff is actually pretty kind of insane I think we featured one of his builds before hey stuff is just absolutely epic so we're just gonna go through some pictures here this I do not think is how it ended up appreciate water cooled it but we will see ah there we go so you've got a sabertooth asus board normally comes in brown he doesn't care so he took the armor off on the top he's painting it here my goodness I can't control this little tiny keyboard like Linus does my hands are way too big for this let's go up here so you can actually see it doesn't work I'm sorry everyone this keyboard is impossible for me to use so he's painting everything like it like a eggshell white I'm terrible with colors that might not be accurate it's some form of white and it looks really good you can see reservoir Clips right there oh I'm so excited this looks so good I'm trying to go through slowly but it looks amazing white thankfully festivals are awesome just look at that like aren't you just if you haven't seen this yet if are you just excited like you know this is gonna look amazing it looks so just I see blue angel I don't even know how else to describe it just such a nice color white coming out here telling the fans is a dangerous and bold move but hopefully it turned out well here's this reservoir XSP see radiator sorry for that jump no every good at controlling this keyboard which has a trackball on it do you he was just showing off a lot of his tubing's and fittings and stuff he always picks like Oh snaps builds are always insanely baller thank you I just got water on both of our laptops and all my life no that's pee Oh you think you'd be used to it by now where are the here we go here's the completed pictures absolutely beasts like we expect from snap Wow just absolutely B's holy crap that's beautiful yep you missed the like nice in progress shots you came in right as we got to the completed shot sniff we featured him before his builds are top-notch like this is crazy that is outstanding I love it painted saber-tooth painted rad power more different painted rad that tubing arrangement you know what it's funny because the more perfect it is the more you notice the mistakes see it's not quite a right angle on the top of the front rad oh it's off by a little bit but it's you know what it's one of those things where it's like it's easier to see the flaw because the rest of it is so perfect I love it and also that that power supply needs to have the color swapped on the TX in the end Wow look at that fluid is it cold I don't remember but I know the stuff you talk you know about yeah yeah man that looks good and I like the only slightly blue sleeping on the cables yeah it would have been nice to see it go all the way to the power supply you got a point with the aeronaut point with the finger oh so it means the black cables coming out of the power supply itself like it looks like it was a little bit phoned in there I wonder if he's using extensions that would you know what you could do a build like this reasonably quickly if you did that this wouldn't even take that long mask off your radiators paint them you still have to do it you can tell he planted this out like crazy because of his tubing runs and yes planning wise but if you were to look at his build get a parts list and execute it you could probably do it without that much difficulty cool very good oh that looks good hmm that's a really nice case - Wow and now with LED huh sure gets more and more pornographic as we go man and those fans look amazing huh those are spectres right yeah that's right you're pros yeah just so nice and going a little bit faster now cuz you've seen a lot of this already so so so nice I'm starting to notice that power supply more yeah I know right just cuz the rest of its perfect oh he's got like a proper proper setup oh yeah I mean you know what honestly he's using a monitor to light it up half of what that's fantastic half of half of like nice builds a lot of the time is photography like I've seen builds on million dollar PC that quite frankly aren't really anything special and if you looked at them in person you really wouldn't be that impressed right but when you when you take great pictures with the gorgeous depth of field and perfect lighting are you gonna go to the next bill budgetary when you are when you take great pictures of them with like gorgeous depth of field and perfect lighting then they look amazing so we're we're almost done the live stream we've just got one more build log to go and guys we are gonna be doing a Mario World after-party again now there's it's gonna take us a little while to get it set up but we are we're ready this time we have a CRT for us and we're actually going to be using a different streaming setup let me know when you're ready to go we're gonna be using a different room you're ready whenever okay I'll talk about this after good for you I seen yeah alright we're going again with kind of the white theme sorry about that building up sss DX right off the bat just ooh ooh love SSD eggs it looks great really nice pictures again but we're just getting started you'll see something has e takes off the backplate you'll see where this is going pretty soon I'm gonna skip through some of the more just general shots there beautiful lovely nabad plates just so beefs again I know white build maybe next week we'll try and make sure that we don't have any more white builds but that seems to be flavor of the month right now and just so you guys know it's not gonna affect performance back plate doesn't really contribute anything to card cooling we're talking maybe a degree or two yeah maybe so it looks amazing that's slang we go into it just showing more part you can use page down as well I know but it jumps too fast I find right okay I guess we want people to be able to follow along yeah my thumbs so freaking big I can't believe we have more than 3,500 years this week you guys Rock those galets yes Yellin fans guys silent twelves and then he raps as far as I can tell he draft didn't actually put his own tubing on but he wrapped it yeah huh so it looks really good huh like it still looks awesome that's really smart yeah yeah it's brilliant cuz it looks great but then it like right but yeah so there's a lot of like 50 things with this bill that I really appreciate it so with those two small little things I guess there's two small little things once we down to it like they're fairly minor changes with the mouse pointer not your finger I'm trying to keep it locked on this cooler anyways so he wrapped the tubing sorry I jumped which like looks really good yeah and it's not a crazy crazy thing to do he painted the back plate which is again not a crazy crazy thing to do but looks really sharp to things that most people wouldn't do but he thought of I like the little blue accents on the motherboard with the rest of the build being otherwise black and white it looks really sharp yeah yeah coming down to it cable management on the box backs nothing special this is a very attainable build yep so just it just looks awesome it's not a 650 TI 660 yes I can't see through these awesome glasses they're amazing there you go that should be easy to read gorgeous yeah awesome build again kind of white and blue so they're both pretty similar in that aspect but they were both really good build so I didn't want to skip one nice keyboard yeah goes along with the bill that's one thing that's really cool too is when people sync up their entire bill mm-hmm so everything works together it's like all your peripherals all your case you're inside lighting everything all works together it's really cool all right so guys we will be back in probably it's gonna take us about 10 or 15 minutes because we've got a new streaming setup for our Mario afterparty which will hopefully help slick not perform it so I'll probably still be terrible off the last week was and I have a USB to SNES adapter in the mail so we're gonna be switching to SNES controllers hopefully next week or the week after but we're using an AVerMedia live gamer portable now on a notebook then we have another more different notebook that is going to be outputting - wait hold on okay so the live gamer portable is on this one which will be the streaming machine then the other notebook is outputting to the CRT because it has VGA out and it has HDMI out so then it is outputting to the live gamer portable which is running on the other computer that is actually doing the streaming so oh yeah the special guest moved to next week great question I should have covered that before so the Steve dotto will be joining us next week oh yeah I probably should have told you that no I got that email you did okay I sent you an email yeah like first time ever actual proper communication happened yeah all right really um so so anyway it'll take us a little while to set it up guys stay tuned we will be back and thank you for checking out the lines tech tips livestream all 34:16 of you that are left that wanted to listen to me do this like lead-out thing and for those of you who are still here I will remove my sunglasses because they're absolutely ridonculous more than one person without the OCD was like a Hoka hi please take them off I can't handle me the only reason I could handle it is I wasn't looking at it right right ah where's the huh you put it over there I can't reach it my arms aren't long enough alright see you guys on the after party thanks for watching
