even says let's light up some crystal I'm sure it's pretty epic it's outside so that I'm gonna make things brighter okay i'm already it already at 2000 iso 3200 here we go beautiful yeah it looks good we were trying to get everything set up before the Sun went down and if the Sun hasn't gone down yet but um but it's going down it's going down so alright cool you're a we don't have anything really planned yeah okay again nothing planned for today Steve actually wrote our entire show yeah actually does have a few topics lined up so we're going to be mainly going off of that and answering some of your questions in chat for today show it's also going to be the more condensed than it usually is I'm going to say half an hour per per side yes instead of the regular hours so bear that in mind hopefully that's cool with you guys shout out to the people who are still holding strong and twitch chat even twitch chat is letting us know about the audio issues by the way so yeah thank you guys that's commitment yeah you thick all right so um we I do want to talk a little bit about some of the stuff that Steve was talking about before we started the show Steve of course doing a tech news website knows lots of text news so if you have he actually a few topics that he threw out there and that I thought were interesting so all of these have articles i'm assuming on gamers next we just did one yeah this one article problem for around up yesterday exceeded some kind of content for today to hold the fort while here i guess the the easiest one is probably the I guess the RX for 60 msi card so there's no chi new RX for 62 Ramos I pretty late the launch cycle the only reason this is really relevant news is because they're half height so that's kind of cool exciting it's a reasonably powerful card and for a hundred bucks same for the 1050 you throw something that's a hundred dollars into a small form factor pc that's pretty good fit even though it's been so long since i built like i have fights as to their but you can get him like especially like the mini ATX ones like you can you can do it really Silverstone's got a lot of good boxes for that too that could be interesting yeah they haven't do they have they made me recent mini-itx cases with with the half slot not sure if they have a fourth half slot we definitely saw stuff with half slot at CES okay but i'm not positive it was new okay yeah so that was kind of justing they're both thought my head 1090 megahertz base and i want to say twelve hundred megahertz boost and then I'm two gigabyte and four gigabyte model at last I looked prices were TVD nice as the news out of msi for the 460 s that's definitely good news for those who maybe have like an older like pre-built system or something like that too that may be either didn't come with a graphics card or came with like a much older one where the CPUs still decent for you know a lot of the you know basic GPU bound games they just need a graphics card but they can't really get one because they're all full height and said yeah right so yes I wasn't bad then I guess there was a a news topic on from JP are John petty research which take their numbers with a grain of salt but there's still a research firm that has a lot of work in the industry and some history so it's certainly better than any of us can come up with in terms of getting numbers for sales and hands like that so they reported that again off thought my head that in terms of market share for AMD Nvidia last quarter and the per GPU market share has gone up to i think twenty nine point five percent oh and the previous measurement that JP are reported which i believe was a different period of time but previous measurement was twenty one point six percent so AMD has gained some ground in the in the GPU space with nvidia taking the romanian 70.5 percent or so did it say how much of that was due to the RX 480 at all or it did not but it's pretty fair to assume that that's most of it or just polaris in general right they did publish something JP are several months ago that showed a boost from from polaris so that's not reasonable and then they also had numbers on overall sales of a IV's attached rate of addin boards or a i beez two systems so that attached rate would be like if you go out and buy even just SI system integrators building finished systems attachment card to it I think that was up to forty four percent which is an increase of 33 there's forty six percent I have your article I see increased thirty six percent year-over-year comparing q4 last year to key for our q4 2015 to Q 4 2016 total attach rate is forty-six percent now and of course this is all from Steve's article on gamers Nexus calm and then the market share the AMD has now that he mentioned 29.5 percent is up from twenty one point six percent last year so that's like that's a pretty big job yeah and slowly I Steve earlier if that includes consoles we don't think it does I think it's just as Adam board probably just add more Kurds and then I like you I like stats aib shipments peaked in 1999 at 114 million units and 2015 there were 44 million units shipped but they're up this year a couple percentage points and by this year I mean 2016 that's when the medics are from yeah so they're up a couple percent from those that 44 million number but it's all down overall good news for PC Villars and gamers because it shows that information tells the manufacturers that people are interested in those types of products and it means they should hopefully keep keep making them and everything yeah yeah so cool really quick some donations from dr. B 1900 thank you very much hotel room is this the baby oil episode at last you know I guess if in baby oil episode were to happen it probably would be in some sketchy hotel room there's a veil there's a bed right here but I think we have to slum it up a little bit more for that maybe like a hotel six or motel six you know or this is a slightly nicer hotel yeah this is oh we don't and we don't have any like luxury baby oil and to to justify the descending about stay tuned for part two five dollars for my crimes against Steve thanks for your video on embargoes and NDA's been really fun and interesting to watch i recommend kyle watch them yes I wasn't I mean it was partially directed at Kyla yes I think I do I was you know I mentioned Kyle how much interested I do a lot of things for the community in my own special way like get Steve to make useful videos but yes that I think I skim through that video and I think it's definitely a topic that a lot of people like we were talking about earlier don't fully understand like the difference between an embargo and and NDA and exactly what you know what's happen on behind the scenes when all of us reviewers post a video at the exact same time at 6am you know whatever and everyone's like is it like a collab is it a spiracy Luminati or anything yeah it is very useful plenty of competing science that don't really know what they mean either embargoes man da ya like like for instance there's information we could be discussing right now with you guys but we're not because we respect NDA's and we don't want to break them because you know this kind of this mutual thing amongst people in the industry so it's frustrating when you see people go outside of that right because it's someone basically taking information that is not supposed to be shared and probably for their own benefit just like me like here and by putting it out there and for people to read at home like I understand getting excited about that stuff and reading about leaks and that kind of thing but the reason NDA's happened and Steve explain this very well in the video is to keep everyone in the press on even footing and to make sure that when you guys get information it's not just coming from a single source that might be biased or might have wrong information or something like that you should be able to go to like eight or ten or twenty year how many sources you want to read about information when a product launches and for that reason we be very much try to abide by n DS and end it in like the come the companies that make these products they also have their own kind of marketing plans in place where you know if someone like leaks information early it kind of screws everything up for them you know all the marketing dollars you know that they're using you know from the funds that we're giving them paying for these products and you know as business owners ourselves like there's there's something valuable to that and when people just don't give a and they just leaked information for their own personal game and have no respect for businesses that are trying to profit and continue doing what they're doing for the community it it's it's like having a best friend that just like weeks every secret you ever tell them right it's just like just frustrating the point you're making certainly on the business side on the prophet inside like we understand very well what has to be done to stay in business in this industry it's not easy at least on the media side but there's a big side on the community too we're giving us the time even if it's just a week or something to look into a product means that hopefully each one of us can develop some kind of angle on the story that's not just regurgitating all the slides that whatever company has given us so you actually get like filtered and thought through information rather than I'm going to repeat all the slides in an article or whatever and take credit for it and that's it ultimately gives you way higher quality content to consume so that's why India is good and thank you for that donation it led to useful shout out real quick to our mods spider as well sell thanks for being here guys I'm seeing you I see you word you guys are great and yeah let's see do we have any new questions that have popped up um there's a five dollar donation from Richard Dortch I missed the front side bus overclocking on my x58 system i sure hope am deol's front side bus overclocking Orizon it makes the OC process so much more fun OC with only multiplier is kind of boring I don't know anything about ricin at this point yeah we don't know anything about rising but a front side bus overclocking I understand nostalgia but it's mostly thing in the past yeah I mean I guess it's to some extent been replaced by base clock yeah but yeah I mean I mean overclocking in the past like I never did it back like honestly I never did it when it was that confusing when you had multi kieta memory you know external memory controller and the northridge in a South Bridge and that was back when your motherboard could have a really serious impact on how fast your system was overall but a lot of that stuff that used to be little components on the motherboard has all been gobbled up by the seed in pci express commercial airliner a controller most most motherboards now just have a single chipset rather than northbridge in a South Bridge and it has simplified things in a lot of ways I mean there's there's pros and cons to it of course but I would say I understand nostalgia but I'm glad that we don't worry about separate clock speeds for all of those things and and getting them all to play nice together anymore um yeah let's see I think was it was there with a one more item in your news story of Steve I yeah Gabe Newell um hey Gabe he this is I don't think I included that part in the story I think it was only in the video no yeah he was with the table kind of a round table of other editors I think and said was it was talking about performance of VR in the market there are not any almost change last 24 hours public numbers on vibe sales or even rift sales I don't believe anyway not recent ones so it's hard to gauge just how successful those products are and Gabe said paraphrasing but this should be pretty pretty close to the quote was um he is okay with the idea that VR can turn out to be a complete failure but also had the caveat that there's a valve is still very optimistic about VR they're still investing in it still developing titles and working on the vibe so but it seemed to me not a not like an escape plan but more of a like we're being realistic about this this is a new thing that is a very complex and different and people don't always latch onto those ideas so quickly so it's definitely like VR is one of those things that everyone who i've had try it thinks it's awesome but there's so many people who still haven't tried it because it's difficult to access the hardware if you don't know someone who's a computer enthusiast or something like that and they've done a fair amount of like demo setups and moles and that sort of thing that I've heard about but I've also heard that those aren't as appealing because it's a crappy and bayern yeah it's just not the case I'm very using a headset that's been used over and over again and stuff and you get the eye herpes in there and stuff yeah and then all those complications so you don't really want to deal with four BR but I don't know I i would agree it seems more like realism like it doesn't seem like he said he's like oh it's on the downs right or anything like that it's just being like yeah i'm i don't okay i feel like Gabe's pretty good just it seems like it's great because my dad doesn't mess around too much he's very transparent I respect and I think I kind of like sometimes I cvr sort of like like laser tag in a way like people aren't gonna buy a laser tag set and play it in their house they're gonna go to a dedicated like facility that does laser tag I feel like that's kind of what VR is right now we're unless you are an enthusiast you're not going to like dedicate a space in your house for this really expensive technology you know I mean so it's just like there's just the barrier to entry so high right now and until that you know it becomes more simplified and mainstream and more affordable I think it's gonna it's probably going to be something that we see take off in like with like third party businesses like laser tag center sorry Luke a forest entertainment exactly yeah but and I know the contents not I haven't enjoyed a lot of VR content beyond initial impressions so far but I think that's more of a challenge of developers have to figure out how do I build for this thing and make it mechanically intuitive what are you what kind of game are you hoping for vr I don't know to be honest I'm mostly a strategy player when I do get to play games so that means a lot of game mechanics as opposed to game experience I feel like right now be our marketers toward experience and definitely and immersion unreal of course so i think that i think the headsets needy a lot smaller I think the theoretical technology in ready player one we're like you know shoots the image with lasers on to your retina rather than having a display that sits in front of your eyes or something like as a feature trust me yeah yeah I mean it sounds sounds painful but it also would be a much simpler way of having a VR headset or something like that be a stream and all that stuff down I think would make it a lot more accessible for people and of course the cost being a huge barrier intrigued right space yeah and then as computers get faster and we have new computers with more cores and better graphics cards at launch that should help too not that we know anything about paid all right let's see we are actually coming up on a half an hour pretty quick here I think yes and we do have some other things that we need to go to this evening so where is again that could be very short stream I think we have one or two more donations pop in there yes five dollars from Nick dimage free odds sorry if I butchered that Callie's want you to know you look really buff from this camera angle well that's why i SAT here because it's all it's all deceiving just wait till you see the other side thank you very much five dollars just to tell me that I am five dollars from Justin Horton thank you sir love to get love the show guys any word on rise and I TX boards coming out with launch don't need specific but if they are making one need one for my landlady you 37 water-cooled building hmm that's a very good question we should have brought we should hopefully a cricket sound effect hopefully you'll be able to find out the answer to that question soon yeah that yeah potentially um and there was I saw one and chat there from this one DV odisha TV put one in there soon thank you leave a chow he said penis i thought i wanted to read it because he just said penis yes we appreciate the penis donations it's gone it must've gone by sorry TV good i didn't see your dollar donation and we did say penis for you on the stream so there you go and in one dollar mmm inator it doesn't help that some of the exceptional titles have been boring secretary workplace game they had jet like javi dugout simulator yeah yeah good point that's how that goes and then that one year to got that Justin's got cool Boop oh there's TVs there we go penis TV set ahem

things on and Steve's actually got a flight to catch in a little bit too yep so we need to be those madness needn't be concerned with all this stuff again guys I know this was sort of a weird awkward show and everything so yeah done something else is how it's always gonna be although next week might be similar who knows you know the reasons we'll see how that goes yes guys we're gonna switch over to kyles channel so we'll try to post those links in the chat and everything thank you all so much for watching this one and thumbs up button or if you thought it was crappy um dislike uneven so we
