Hales to us from where you from man Florida Oh oh wow so you were right in the heart of it yeah so you have power to go plug this into right well we have powers not my finest Wow all right well that's pretty lucky man well everybody you know safe and cool yes rock on glad to hear that okay so today we're gonna be building a rocking machine have you ever built a computer before no no this is your first time yeah well today that changes welcome to the party let's get started the asus rog Strix 1080 TI comes with asus GPU tweak - which allows you to monitor performance and helps you stream it also features their game booster as well as a free one-year premium license of xsplit gamecaster learn more at the link in the video description so what do you want to start with motherboard good choice so even though you've never built a computer before have you watched a build guide yeah a lot of them Alwine is tech tips guides right no have you at least watched a Linus tech tips guide yeah I make a very minimal oh wow so that's the kind of video we're making all right shots fired shots hit the target let's all just wipe out party faceny continue oh holy crap Corsair yeah your system at home you were the one with the laptop right yeah Super Bowl and laptop that's great for gaming no no not so much hey my computer is an HP laptop it's a my little laptop and then right next to it I got my little $25 mouse I don't actually know what brand my mouse is I kind of got it cuz it wasn't really expensive pretty much you know really you had like a Pentium core with HD into integrated graphics and tell me something HD Intel graphics how high definition are they 720p is good yeah that's what they'd like you to think okay have you ever installed the CPU before no all right even touched one okay so here not yet okay you can touch it no just kidding okay you can touch it yeah all right so you want to line that up real carefully there's no force required so all you get to do hang out that was it all right push em down lower the arm down you have officially installed the CPU okay have you done ran before I mean I took grandmother's like a computer fantastic alright let's do it why am I even here cuz I don't know everything I memorized how do you do the motherboard and that's pretty much where it is haha so tell me then charlie what was your plan if somebody ever did give you a computer worth of parts you were just gonna assemble the motherboard and kind of I just go on youtube and watch a guide and filled it with that you've got all the answer kids today man so tell me something Charlie what's gonna be the first thing you do when the system arrives at home message the RGB and then I'm gonna go to the steam floor and buy a games really good graphics so that I can see those I'm just gonna end up eating for the sake of thoroughness we could pull the board out we could relocate this standoff we could put it there mmm here's a Tim Boetsch work wait stop we missed something really important oh no you didn't do the satisfying plastic peel off the RAM enjoy this I only get to do it once oh yes look how shiny it is now we also have to figure out where our hard drive is gonna go because this hard drive cage can you say who's good up here I did say that but let me tell you something about adults charlie sometimes well they don't lie but they say things without having really thought them through or kids your age allowed to use knives yeah yeah okay don't decide I don't know mine are like 5 and 3 so huge TV all right now leave these fans because I have something better RGB fans it's gonna be lit that's what the kids say right yeah when that RGB lighting is giving you an extra 15 frames per second you'll thank me I tell you man it is so easy to build a computer these days and like have it look awesome current to a thousand years ago I can imagine it was hard since thousand years ago to go to computer you sure your name is Charlie yeah sure it's not Alec oh I'm gonna confess something to you Charlie mister I know so how come you picked an AMD build cuz I like to rosenbear plus it feels like to actually care about prices even when he's not paying for it he's going for the perception of who's treating the customer more fairly so you said this machine is for gaming at school so surely 480 gigs on your boot drive is not enough for the library you want okay well that's fine we've got you covered 2 terabyte drive then you got to make a big decision here possibly the most important decision of the entire build do you want to put it on the bottom or the top is there really a difference no hey there's two on the other side then we need that SATA data cable that we set aside much much earlier and then misplaced and then found go for it open it up enjoy it savor it so I ripped it those are all the good vibes oh I ripped it again see I used to wonder why people watch unboxing videos then I watched an amateur open a box totally get it now oh there's cool on top yeah it's a cool logo this isn't just any oh yeah this is a Strix 1080 TI Wow there it is that's what's gonna run all your Minecraft and there are Neopets believe it or not it works as cool as looks if you were to run cheapo games like Minecraft on it believe it or not these fans these fans wouldn't even have to spin Wow because the heatsink on it is so big this thing has like the entire thing basically covered in aluminum fins okay now the most important part of installing the graphics card I'm not dropping it okay okay the next most important oh yes it's got a typo on it I think hey really look at this GT X 1080 TI gaming it's kind of embarrassed it's not gaming it's like it's like gaming yo so line up your ports at the back hey you can tell if these are yep you're good did it I just autograph this card sure did and you started with the best graphics fine now this is cool your graphics card actually includes an RGB lighting header so we can hook one of our RGB lighting strips that we have from cable mod up to it okay alright cover your eyes okay just follow a follow us out of my voice okay okay this is the time for the big reveal don't trip over that big block in front of your foot no I'm just kidding there's no block because I moved it turn to the right and experience 180 Hertz gaming so that is what high refresh rate with g-sync looks like so however many frames your GPU spits out that's exactly how many frames get displayed here so you don't see any tearing you don't see any lag so you don't even have to give kids these days a game they'll just play move the window around if you throw it high enough refresh rate monitor at them now let me show you something else that's really cool we're on this side that's nice RGB yeah that's a nice RGB and and we'll get the utility loaded up but check this out see this RGB logo here and the logo on the back of the graphics card it's synchronized with the RGB strip across the top here I got one other cool thing for you to really listen to it that's going that streaks for you well family won't get annoyed at all well I'm sure they'll find reasons to get annoyed because you're always gonna be on the computer or bugging them to go on the computer the day was awesome actually it was really cool the bill was my hair part and then it was also fun at the end to test the computer and stuff I was definitely not expecting a 1080i so while Charlie plays around with the RGB settings on the video card which also controls the RGB strip along the top I guess I'll bid you guys farewell thanks for watching this episode of our ROG rig reboot huge congratulations to you but for winning this whole thing rate the system you go tell me out of 10 10 10 out of 10 perfect like your style then alright thanks for watching guys
