Tech Showdown - Candy Battle Pt. 2

2017-12-23
let's copy the world's ugliest fan did you want to go to warehouse now and start doing water cooling and then we'll head out okay after let's go look for water cooling and then yeah we can come back both teams were given permission to do their water cooling with stuff from the Linus warehouse problem is Luke and Linus didn't actually get the message so the BS mods guys get the first crack at it tech showdown is brought to you by synergy - in partnership with g.skill be quiet and cable mod synergy - makes sharing your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers so simple that anyone can use it learn more at the link below we could do cream accents with a brown base we have to commit to something it's two o'clock okay I don't think it's the greatest idea the rat but like I think for us to win this we really needed like a super killer idea and I don't necessarily think that we have one so let's do it so let's get this banged out as fast as we can do you want this kind of candy color or do you want this kind of this kind of candy color okay here's here's the crazy idea I'm sorry I'm changing gears on you again that's weird but if this is around could we use the gold caps and do the face brown but that would be that would match the fee that would match the color scheme but not the overarching theme forget it I I said it done the thing and we're all gonna just forget it Brandon wasn't recording that anyway this is a pretty ambitious project that we've put it in front of ourselves everything's flat we're fucking you know we're gonna lose right let's just try not to get humiliated I don't want to give them the satisfaction okay I'm just gonna cry I think because that's probably fair let's just give up let's just take all the candy off the shelves literally jam it into our Tower and build a computer that could have to be kind of cool I think we could make that work a dark spin to Candyland the dark side of candy and like the the like Dion Candyland is like if we could illuminate the Candyland sign I don't think that would even be that hard and have the D like kind of falling off and not illuminated Oh God okay that is a lot of work that's like two hours of work yeah but the Candyland sign we're probably pretty important okay what color green no because it doesn't look like grass so we get fake grass from somewhere and then I'm not worried about the color too much so we could just go with brown okay so I think what we're gonna do is kind of divide and conquer rather than trying to tackle everything together we have the general theme kind of figured out Luke kicked my ass with his diorama skills in the second text showdown something like that so Luke is in charge of making this the well you guys like talk a little bit or something you know okay and then I am on transforming this desktop surface and figuring out how the scenery is going to work so I'm gonna Home Depot he's gonna Michaels we're both gonna look for some inspiration and I'm like gonna roll with this vlogging it up over there this dress right now so I'm gonna get this finished so I got to coat this I gotta figure out some paint coatings for some other stuff since I'm covering things I might as well figure out this horrible zit on my nose now that about a beer shot I'm finding this place pretty oppressive I just got to get out of here and working with Luke the worst it's the worst so we've stripped down the case we're know we're painting it painting it inside outside some accidents colors pulled the tray out everything plastic forever is gone we're gonna be doing hardline water cooling hopefully two GPU and CPU we also might use these gigantic this is a 400 millimeter reservoir these might be actually mounted onto the desk and not inside the computer which will bring the hardline across the computer in the desk and tie the whole thing together so we don't have an actual plan really but we made it look like we did element we we just wanted them to sweat a little bit so we when we get a good mod it's usually revolves around a lot of elements so we're trying to just develop each key element is some of the things we know that we're gonna use we're gonna have we got to have movement right we know that we're gonna do some big candy like giant well we hope if as long as we can find them okay we want some big giant yeah lollipop whatever things we're gonna of course light the underside of the desk we're gonna try to use the sawhorse desk parts we're gonna try to close those with acrylic and then we were probably gonna do something with some sort of signage or a whole front skirt on the front of the desk and do some sort of signage like call it something-something candy shop like women twinning winning team candy shop we just ran into an empty plant right here and so we know that our competition is in the store so we're gonna let some air out of their tires to slow them down just a little bit you know I just I thought this was gonna be like you know a by the rules competition these guys just keep camping it up in my aisle here camping it up in my aisle they're trying to scope out the competition Chaz if you guys have anything worth hiding okay that's good we are so fucked just five that's the under side like it's fine okay so I have a little bit of this gold left I don't think it's enough so I bought another one but we can return that if we don't need it this was just in my car don't worry about it ignore that so this is I believe the same gold but new it's not the same at all so that's cool these are these are rollers so what I think I'm actually gonna do is I'm gonna go chocolate brown on the edges and green turf on the top so the desk actually has like a two-tone look and then do you want to do chocolate brown for the legs too ah not necessarily I still think we should get the wrapping paper which it just occurred to me we appear to already actually have oh okay so I wonder if we can just borrow that here's a white there's actually a bright red spray balm in the workshop right now okay check out my toy store haul as well okay one quick thing I got the fondue machine they didn't really want me to vlog in the store so here's my vlog getting the fondue machine I also got a bunch of multiple chocolate for it oh yeah so how's Matt guys yeah I figure we could just like really cross that out and write something else I think I think this will be good that's like accessories and stuff you you have to buy them at like see their heat sealed you have to buy them as like sets this is just a bunch of extra stuff so I have I have like a palette that's cool and I have like a cage that goes around it if we wanted to have like some finished candy in there I have I tried to get as much of this kind of this could be like wasteland behind the computer because I don't know what that absolutely this could be yeah and then our hazmat guys could work on that I got the hazmat guys come with hatchets for some reason so I bought them to throw in some brooms for them so hazmat guys have brooms now what they only came with hatchets yeah I know right we're like pickaxes or whatever you would call that remaining plutonium with pickaxes yeah sure why not so right so this is the like area behind it or whatever and these guys are like working on it or whatever yeah cool I love that so we should leave us to like a fairly significant amount of space behind the computer if we can okay maybe the behind the computer isn't even hidden on an angle behind it it's like beside it over here and then Candyland is over there cool that's good you sound worried I'm worried I'm like I could not possibly be more worried right now we are we're gonna get our ass I think them being allowed to do like super crazy multi loop water cooling and us not is like not really fair oh I don't think that matters I think that's a complete waste of time super matters oh no way are you kidding me what yeah but remember like he's gonna go wow there's his water cooled yours is not your club absolutely we are not allowed yeah doing it now is probably an issue yeah even then I don't think look I think if we try to go head to head that's for the keyboard if we try to go head to head those are stupid like hardline water-cooled build versus hardline water-cooled build we're gonna get our asses kicked anyway they're gonna do a better job of it right so we're better off executing our style better then they would execute their style or not better than funner and I know fun is not a word but that was sort of my point we're the funner team you know it's like we don't really get it but we seem nice you know one of our shirts don't fit yeah we're going for the sympathy vote Brandon where do you want this lens synergy to is designed to be easier and more seamless to use than synergy one features include sharing from anywhere with automatic control of any other computer without reconfiguring SSL encryption to protect your keystrokes from attackers dynamic networking so it detects the best route based on your setup and being able to always run in the background on all your operating systems so you can set and forget and it even works across VPNs and tricky home networks if you get the pro version you can get access to other cool features too like clipboard sharing dragging and dropping files copy pasting lock screen synchronization and lots more got some nice piece thanks Brad still live we got stuff from the candy shop stuff that stuff our chalkboard that we talked about enjoyed we got some of these lights right here that we're gonna use above and below RGB yeah RGB you everything all the stuff and then our sparkly stuff with Georgia we got some sparklers glitter glue stick things and then all they associated like you know supplies paint rollers that kind of crap nothing too exciting so alright let's get moving go in there yeah we're running out of that back you don't have to worry about the edge so diesel yeah by the time I gotta clean up a toast okay okay we're happy to do that in the morning okay all right so and what I can tell those guys haven't done anything that looks good so yeah we could just wait a whole nother day don't touch that because it's not secured in any meaningful way okay the idea evolved from a flowing river of chocolate that the user can consume into having it be like like a candy place themed into having some things maybe be wrapped in foil but then be chocolate inside and then into now the tower is a factory and outside is like where the workers harvest the materials to make candy look I can't even stand up what well no that's fine we'll just hot glue everything I mean all of those changes occurred within a span of a couple of hours meaning that there's been very little decisive action and very little time to act on it wait the decisive action is the action I mean this is what this is what I'm talking about because we get fun you know like that's what this project is supposed to be about it's not supposed to be all like serious who can build the best you know modded computer or whatever look at these guys are like so I don't have the paint booth set up right now which means that this is pretty much our best bet like people white this isn't ideal talk tape talk to hit me with the talk tape nice throw okay they're measurement of a good day how much painting you can do maybe it isn't about painting I'm gonna spring into action springing into action for day two let's get on this first things first I need to get another coat of my stain on here got my got my dark brown stain I got one here you know got other ones that I can't show you cause it's too hot for TV I mean that's hot to some people I think like maybe we could do like brick Street kind of deal and use like KitKat bars and have the wheelbarrow there and they're like laying them out on top like GPU or something totally cool this is honestly not the one I wanted they didn't have the one I wanted in stock but I think it'll get the point across it's probably good enough yeah so I'm gonna work on getting this while you finish disassembling I'm gonna work on getting this cut out and I want it to line up as perfectly along the sides as we can get away with I've reflected a lot last night and I'm coming into today feeling a lot better actually today is a fresh day it doesn't have to be affected by the failures of yesterday so this is what we call the comfort surface I think we need a most pad or else we'll lose some points because their comfort surface is like exceptionally uncomfortable yeah oh it's not exception I mean it's a little uncle you definitely read mark your hand like real fast this has to come off and I need to do some more staining tell me objectively does it look bad like no and you're gonna cover it anyway so what does it matter okay while Luke and lioness are going with brown the other team is getting started with good old-fashioned white hopefully their plan for painting won't be as big of a letdown as it was in scrap yard Wars yeah son I just finished cleaning off all the stickers that were on the case so we could paint where those were and then just kind of wiped it down with dinner to get it ready to paint okay so I got full coverage on the first coat I'm gonna let that sit and it might take a couple hours I'm not sure how to get these grates off of some of these parts but I'm working on it great did it yes will make it great again we need to jury-rig ourselves some way to hang things once we're done painting them honestly Luke I think a good enough paint job plus our X Factor could be enough to do this maybe because I honestly don't think the judges are gonna look that closely at the paint the biggest mistake yesterday was not just like going with something and then just like frantically doing it I think that's what we need to do for the next three days well that's yeah yeah I don't know if I agree on the first part but that is what we need to do now there's kind of a wild card here because like I really didn't see this team assignment coming I mean literally no one did something not even cool yeah oh yeah you were here for that right yeah Colton's like what that doesn't make any sense I'm not gonna be the kid on the schoolyard that wins about the teams I'm gonna be the kid on the schoolyard who makes the best of his crappy team Lucan Linus might have a shot at making up for their slow start they're going full speed ahead with whatever half big idea they have but will it be enough find out next time on tech showdown
