Awesome Hardware #0154-A: Cascade Lake-X and Threadripper 2 - Possible Launch Dates?

2018-07-10
pure adrenaline right and I'm saying that's what we're demonstrating right from my understanding we should be live right about now so hello everyone and welcome oh this is awesome hardware it is a live show and we discuss technology we drink some beer we have a good time we do it every Tuesday evening at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time and we stream live to our YouTube channels as well as twitch.tv slash awesome hardware right now we're doing the first half of episode 154 and we're streaming it to my channel on YouTube that's Paul's hardware and an hour or so we'll switch to the second half which will be streamed to Kyle's channel bit wit and the entire thing you just streamed on Twitch so thanks to all of you guys who are joining us live today and we have some very exciting stuff to talk about and it's modest it's moderately exciting some of its obviously tell me that's okay it makes the other news sound really cool but if nothing else we're just gonna hang out and drink a few beers and have a good time speaking of drinking beer we drink beer on the show so occasionally we do also use adult language so if you do have small children or other people who are offended by that sort of thing maybe kick them out or plug up their ears with something so they don't hear it today we're drinking provided by wifey sauce yep this is modern times stout the coffee roasted out to be specific yes I'm finishing off my chronic ale amber from Pizza port brewing they're both very good they're delicious she did she did a good job delicious thanks right he's asked Cheers so thanks to you guys for joining us and let us kick off the show with uh with the quick announcement yeah we are gonna be at Comic Con and we are going to be at the BYO PC area there's a bring your own PC event there it's not BYO PC let's not bring your own PC they're already gonna have the system set up so you want a system already said there's a PC gaming area though and we're gonna be hanging out there and as far as I know it's the first year that comic-con has ever had a LAN presence like a PC gaming presence so it's pretty cool yeah um but yeah we're gonna be there so we'll tweet about stuff where we are and whatnot we're gonna be at the land area I believe specifically on Saturday let's plan oh I don't know if it's well we'll be there Friday and Saturday but I think one of the days we actually have a specific meetup time okay details forthcoming about the exact specific meetup time yeah but we'll figure that all that out animal tweeted and stuff so if you guys are going to Comic Con feel absolutely you should stop by the PC gaming area and you should also come say hi to us yeah I don't think either of us replied to Brian in his email five days ago but he mentioned this shine we should thank Brian as well as angel or angels our friend to kind of hook this up and Brian actually provide us with the passes so thanks Brian yeah and we suck at email we're sorry really I'm sorry I can't really I constantly feel bad about how bad a MIDI you know but apparently not bad enough to do any better at it so fun fun fact Brian actually got our attention initially through donating on this show though he attached oh yeah that was he was like he gave his own like the Lana thon that he does like a few times a year a shout-out on the show he's again you guys should come by Comic Con and we just read it as like some you know Rando comment or whatever but he had like previously apparently tried to either email us or message us on Twitter events down in San Diego area yeah so there you go yeah stay tuned for details on Comic Con all right we don't have a quick plug for our stores if you guys wanna help support us and you like our live shows or the other content we post on YouTube and we're go ahead and buy stuff Paul Cybernet is my store I don't know what else to say about it high quality merchandise we have some awesome hardware merch as well as other stuff mugs pint glasses shirts some hoodies some stuff is sold out because it's so darn popular also big weight that tech slash store is Kyle store you commercial buy stuff there it all comes from the same location so it's all real nice super super nice to this and thanks to you guys to support us if you do buy stuff we will shout out to Johnson at you at the end of each show which is a ritual that we do which confuses people it's mainly we do it's the main reason why we continue to do it is for people like what hell is going on ROH you all all right let's jump any news please driving in a technology news it was a feel like it was a little light on news this week but there's yeah there's some up stemming up stemming cuff wow Rd this is already happy of coming stuff the strong beer there's some upcoming stuff that we can sort of start to get the rumor mill turn in for turn in for a burnin or at least have some discussion about so AMD announced third up or two at Computex they confirmed it they actually said its launching in August so that's not like new news what is kind of new news and this is a hardware calm article is the actual launch date according to this article which is still a rumor so this is that we're not reporting this as fact or anything but August 13th supposedly is when you will be able to buy yourself a second gen Rison thread Ripper these are these are going to be awesome for multiple reasons mainly lots more cores the core war has officially launched and more cores is more power and surrender faster render stuff faster content creation great stuff make things Intel of course attempted to preempt am these third refer to announcement back at Computex with the much maligned and discussed 28 core demo the intel did of their 28 core cpu that they said will launch later this year and it was doing five gigahertz but more on that in just a second supposedly that did affect Intel I'm sorry that did affect Andy's announcement though because AMD supposedly was originally like in some of the earlier media materials that went out they only had listed up to a twenty four core mmm but that when they actually announced like not we're doing 32 and we know they've been capable of doing 32 because that's what epic has been doing for quite some time and epic uses the same base level rise in cores that that that rise in processors and therfore processors use so it's possible and they're gonna do it and if nothing else Intel's 28 core demo maybe did push them to drop 32 cores so that's cool the action all SKUs that are tough they're talking about that will be available at launch is the twenty nine ninety X is what they're calling the the highest end one the 32 core mess so they'll have 32 cores in 64 threads and then there's the 29 50 X which is 24 cores and 48 threads still no word yet on the whether they'll be if it's gonna I guess would be 16 to 24 to 32 that makes sense I don't know if they're gonna do anything else in between they're probably not that I don't think they really they really need to you know and it did the 20 the 29 90 X did briefly appear online late last months and a European I'm sorry German retailer but Kansas is Europe priced at 1509 euros so again that was like a pre-order at a retail website so again that's really info not confirmed but that seems a reasonable price 1509 euros is one thousand seven hundred and fifty five US dollars and that would be a decent undercut of intel's 79 80 extreme edition which is the 18 core 36 thread which currently sells for $2,000 so suddenly you can get 32 cores for around 1750 then that seems like a better deal than 18 cores for mm thank ya does I'm 29 and X supposedly will have a base clock of 3 gigahertz all core max frequency of 3.4 gigahertz 3.4 gigahertz on 32 cores is pretty nice I would assume it also be overclockable but I'm not to see what it comes to when we talk them about the amount of heat generated and and like TDP ratings and where they go when you start overclocking precision because clock will go up to 4 gigahertz so three Meg's of l1 cache 16 Meg's of l2 cache 64 Meg's of l3 cache and a 250 watt TDP that's so cool no more further details on that 24 core version other than the name I guess 29 50x I was kind of thinking like if they do a 2950 X it would be a 16 core thread rapport to version and then they'd have to have like a 2019 70 X that would be the 24 core and then a 29 90 X but whatever they want to you they want to you know they want to change the core count that's matches with the 50 it's not like any we're used to confusing product names yeah exactly none of the naming schemes were here and the piece makes sense already so industry hey why should they start now but back over to the knee the Intel thing so until did that 20 core CPU demo at Computex they got a lot of flack for it because the way they demonstrated on stage and they didn't mention overclocking and they had like a 1500 watt water cooler that was positioned down underneath it they didn't really show but all that said what is it and is it actually gonna watch so cascade Lake X is the name that's being tossed around although again that's not actually a name that Intel is used it's just what people are calling it because after they did the 28 core processor demo and they got some inquisitive people asking about some of the details for it that they didn't reveal they did clarify that it is a 14 nanometer architecture CPU then it was overclocked to 5 gigahertz yeah but of course with that crazy cooler that they had on it so we can assume it's it's it's at least derived from a current generation product so most likely a cascade Lake X or what would be called cascade leaks X if it is the CPU that people think it is which based on the socket that we actually managed to get some pictures of when we saw the motherboards and in person was LGA 36:47 that's the xeon socket so likely the cpu that was used according to gamers Nexus as well as a few other people who sort of deduced this was the $10,000 Xeon Platinum 80 176 CPU which is a 28 core Xeon and they probably took that and did some shenanigans with it and unlocked the overclock enos of it and overclocked it and and that was what they demoed now according to Intel they're going to launch a 28 core CPU on their high-end desktop by the end of the year that's what they've said and really all of the information in this article which is from techradar.com by the way that's the only thing that is that that like they've said in as confirmed but who knows how confirmed that is because it's a product on a platform that like we don't know the details about yet we're already in q3 so we're looking at q4 it's just we're not sure if there's going to be enough time or they're actually gonna launch it we're not sure if it's gonna be some derivation of this actually lg8 36:47 are they gonna do a big socket high-end desktop and launch a new desk high-end desktop platform for it or are they like I can't see them doing this on LG I 2066 it doesn't seem physically possible do you think it's still gonna be 14 nanometer it does seem like it will yes still be 14 nanometer so if they take existing Xeon the engineering work they've done on Xeon and they poured it over to desktop then that might be what cascade Lake X is as part of me like justjust from the past year to has seen Intel just rush demos and announcements so so much and so badly and desperately that I wouldn't even be surprised if like they showcase this 40 nanometer chips as like they're 20 was a 28 or 24 core 24 core demo without it even really being ready and like the actual release is gonna be a different process or something like that and like they just really wanted to have an impressive demo way ahead of schedule to compete with AMD well the demo question is is for sure I mean that's exactly what they did for the Compu tech stuff and they didn't really do anything else at Computex when it comes to announcements for high-end desktop or much in general when it comes to the CPU side so yeah it like all we have to go on is but as what they said but there apparently was also a an extreme a report from extreme tech also mentioned in the article that said Intel's road map shows cascade Lake X high-end desktop processors debuting next year so 2019 excuse me if that was the case then we might see a cascade Lake X launched at roughly the same time as cannon Lake but they would be different process notes because cascade Lake X would be on 14 nanometer + + + Cannon Lake is on 10 nanometer there's also a rumor 22 Corps mentioned in the article to possibly go along to provide sort of a step up from your I currently up they go up to 18 so be the 18 to 22 to 28 but yeah so for all other speculative things written in the article if you guys want to check it out but ultimately they concluded and I would tend to agree that if Intel wants to renew their competitiveness in the high-end desktop space because people do seem to be more have been more excited about threader for this past year then about skylake X is to make their processors in their platform more affordable yeah competition has been brought and they could do that with a new with the new with launching a new lineup but we'll see if they actually follow through with that well yeah a couple more a couple more tech stories here first off China is actually manufacturing producing x86 processors this is kind of an interesting story because well China's been trying to get into the chip manufacturing business for a while the processors themselves referenced in the article are called diana d hya na and they are based on AMD zen microarchitecture and they're beginning to surface from chinese chip producer hi gan then if you're looking at this and thinking to yourself wait wait a minute Intel actually opens x86 and AMD has a cross-licensing agreement with Intel to produce x86 processors how is this AMD then giving this Chinese company the ability to produce these processors the article goes into it but we'll get back to that in a second AMD according to the article does not sell its final trip designs to its China based partners instead it allows them to design their own processors tailored for the Chinese server market that's what they say but the sea views themselves are so similar to AM DS epic processors that Linux kernel developers have listed vendor IDs and family series numbers as the only difference so they seem to be like almost copies but a AMD allows them to use their design because it's only for the Chinese market is that what I'm getting it's it's limited to a regional use um and that's how that's how they're able to use it it's it's it's not because of that I'll get to that okay so just a second I mean I I don't from what I from what I can tell I don't think these processors are going to be sold globally but yeah you never know on eBay but this the joint venture was actually announced back in 2016 and at the time AMD was kind of having a tough time they had I've been operating at a loss for six quarters prior to that and infused AMD with 293 million dollars of cash and AMD then took that and used it to invest in the frizzing of their Rison line so a lot of the stuff that AMD has been coming out with I'm sure is at least in part possible by the fact that they actually had this capital infusion but back to the tricky way that they got around the Intel AMD cross licensing agreements according to the article and again there's more detail than what I'm about to say but AMD holds a 51% stake in HM C which I believe is the actual fan while Ken Jin tae Gwang Holdings hold owns 49% meanwhile AMD owns 30% of heigen which is the the company and tangen high long holdings owns 70% so HFC owns the x86 IP and ends up producing the chips which satisfies the AMD Intel x86 cross licensing agreements because the IP remains with a company primarily owned by AMD so it seems to be clever manipulation of who actually owns the who actually has a larger holding and the companies that are producing the chips again guys more more details in the article this is not the most exciting thing ever so let's move on I'm ravenous more news from China micron we talked about micron last week there one of the big three chip manufacturers and we've discussed their potential price-fixing and other things with them recently but just like last week there was a ruling in China that actually was forcing micron to not sell it prevented its Chinese subsidiaries from manufacturing selling or importing some DRAM modules and solid-state drives this was last week and Kyle talked about it last week the foods whoa whoo-chow whoo-chow whoo-chow Intermediate People's Court in China's Fujian Province handed down this preliminary injunction micron technology and this is just an update on it they're planning to appeal it not surprisingly the original injunction was a response to patent infringement suits not in fact price-fixing so a patent issue is what the source of this is and that was filed by Taiwanese foundry UMC micron however mint maintains that its products do not infringe on the UMC Penn's claim to files by UMC and it's Chinese subsidiary of Fujian Xinhua integrated circuit company and retaliation for accusations by micron that you don't see missus appropriated micron trade secrets so it's kind of like a they're saying it's retaliation basically that's where it's first from that resulted in a civil lawsuit filed by micron and US District Court and criminal indictments against UMC and three of its employees brought by Taiwanese authorities in the meantime micron will comply with the ruling while they request that the Foo Shou court reconsider or state's decision and it expects the injunction to reduce its sales for the current quarter by about 1% 1% reduction in micron sales which doesn't seem like that much right well they're still expecting sales percent of what between eight billion and eight point four billion million and 1.1 percent of that is about 80 million 80 to 84 million dollars you could buy a car with that just which doesn't seem like a lot relative to microns overall sales but 84 million dollars is a lot of money millions a million money is money that's true and if you if your doesn't matter if you like I feel like the bigger the company you are the more you care about every last penny I don't know yeah they gotta be you gotta be stingy right the more you have yeah exactly that's why they have so much money because they don't take shit like this customers more and other yeah yep all right let's move on to something slightly more interesting last story in the news department this is AMD's b3x like beef 450 motherboards which might be exciting to you if you're interested in building a computer and you wanted something that's new and fresh and its provides overclocking capability and has support for first and second generation and is also inexpensive be 350 has been extremely popular because you can get motherboards for like 80 bucks or so that really do a decent job getting stuff done that you need you need done and also provides some overclocking granted that's not always the best overclocking because the power delivery does does affect overclocking too but it's definitely usable you can definitely overclock with it yes so we're expecting some be 450 motherboards that will provide some improvements over there be 350 motherboard counterparts and yeah and they should all have out-of-the-box support Verizon 2006 processors which is steadily becoming less and less of a concern but it is potentially an issue if you get a 300 series motherboard and a rise in the second gen processor this is the be 450 tomahawk motherboard MSI demoed this at Computex it actually has appeared in a listing on Amazon us according to overclocked 3d net which is where this article came from article didn't list the price which I thought was stupid but here's at least picture this like if it's listed in Amazon maybe it was just a placeholder price or something like that just called everyone at overclocked 3d done net stupid I didn't say they were stupid I said in essence I'm out and getting it back shut your mouth ain't a small piece of peanut brittle we're gonna give a cease and desist on this shit anyway it did the support for up to thirty four sixty six megahertz memory and a XMP OSI mode no price though but there is a second article also in the description with the this is from an antic and this is talking about bunch of other motherboards so that first one was just the MSI one but there's there's many more in this article multiple stores in Austria and Germany are taking pre-orders on amd-v 450 motherboards from as issues as rock ASAC soon as rock according to guys hallstatt EU guys guys guys house just doing great with my Chinese and German pronunciation in this episode alright so there's an asus prime v 450 this is a Strix where's the prime that's a gift oh yeah okay is it are we to buy it you could try but yes I turned up I can try turning the game up a little bit on that I'm gonna guess brace your ears I'm gonna keep talking cows going to attempts to turn the volume up ever so slightly on the mic so you guys can hopefully hear us a little bit better yeah the door is really squeaky the door makes a lot of noise what was I talking about though where is that Asus Prem that's an ass rock Gaming talks about theses crime doesn't show a picture well shucks this is the Strix be 450 - F gaming which is one of the asus listings that this one they have the Strix be 450 - I gaming which I would assume as mini ITX the tough be 450 plus gaming which is that one no that's a gigabyte where it's a tough that's asrock here's the tough stuff be 450 plus gaming that's that's that right there it's pretty good pink accents pink yellow yellow accents what's wrong with my brain first you can't pronounce it can't pronounce German and Chinese pronounce now you're colorblind the hell's wrong with you just huge penis mistook the yellow for pink you have no more peanut brittle beautiful peanut brittle for you throwing you off it's your kryptonite there's also the prime B 450 M - a the prime V 450 plus and the prime B 450 mm - K so Hazen says a pretty wide line up prices for all those AC ASUS motherboards ranged from 86 euro to 186 euro which is about a hundred to two hundred and seventeen US dollars seems a little bit on the high side the grandes who throws a lot of stuff if they're hiring boards especially like the ROG and Strix stuff so we'll see we'll see what what these boards had that make them stand out a little bit more you know it's always interesting to me like it like like it just goes to show like how popular and feature-rich be 450 and be 350 are because you see board partners like really making them look like they could be premium boards like that first asus board that was at the top that's the Strix yeah I mean it looked it looked like it could have easily been like past for like an X 470 board like you don't really see the you know the non Z platforms from Intel I feel like there are many board makers who are like making them look that nice because you can't overclock on them you know you can't overclock on them and people aren't buying that like not as many enthusiasts are investing into those cheaper platforms like they are with AMD's cheaper platforms because you're getting you know you should still give me faster memory support and that's one of the places that that AMD has attacked and tell because intel has always placed a decent price premium on the higher-end enthusiast stuff whether that's the high-end desktop or the enthusiast overclocking on the mainstream side z series chipsets are always like fifty bucks more expensive than their alternatives and you have to get get that nerd overclock and they look infinitely better I don't think we can ignore that that's often the case but for 50 good yeah here's as rock board just a couple more this is the V 450 M - HD v this one's only gonna be $84 84 84 bucks I see an MDOT - right here only - there's another on the back only to dim dim slots this is a interesting micro ATX layout and then there's a gigabyte board this is the B 450 MDS 3h almost looks like a tough board without just like a couple little yellow accents also a micro board where's the where's the MDOT - isn't I would expect there to be an MDOT - on you I am so huge I have no idea if this is the case or not but like a little micro ATX board like this I would be happy to see like 2 m dot 2 slots on the back of this thing yeah why not what's wrong with that you know I got it slightly less accessible once everything's installed but I mean there'd be slightly less and maybe less he concerned then like tucking it underneath it oh this is an MDOT T right here what am I am blind basically above the the GPU slot but anyway yeah then we'd need case makers to make larger cpu cooler cutouts so we could access the MDOT two slots on the back of the board like a really big CPU cutout and you could actually get at it yeah I think I've had that happens with some mini ATX motherboards yeah be 450 interestingly enough is still officially unannounced by AMD even though boards were showing off a Computex and everyone knows that it's coming but of course just rundown features again expect C CPU overclocking six PCI Express 2.0 lanes for adding cards in addition to eight or 16 lanes supported by the AP use of the CPUs depending what you install to USB 3.1 gen2 ports two USB 3.1 gen2 six USB 2.0 headers and enhanced CPU boosting techniques like xfr to except bar to enhanced and precision boost overdrive stuff that came out when they second gen rise and stuff lunch super exciting all right cool let's move on to our next segments which is not awesomesauce news I should just leave that though awesomesauce for life or we're gonna do some tales from space a brief a brief what's that it still says awesome we are the best twitch streamers in the world I was at which partners but we're not even partners we have such a fancy set up was like we do things that pop up when people subscribe and stuff oh how much better actually be can they be like a border up here with like it's like mr. daddy's matter I don't know what people put on there all the garbage that's littered around this screen fruit right it's news if I have a tracker for everything like how many times I've blinked yeah oh there's another one as absurd some like little gift dances around every time I blink or there's like a stock ticker and like can you take a sip great we can track that we need to sit down display that real-time information for you guys so you can keep up to date and we have sell throw assessing looking to see you can keep track of all of our blinks and sips a cell needs to know thanks for meaning we love you so and hi Steve oh well ask just ask you some he has to use something you ignored him we're in Jack I didn't ignore him I didn't see any hate cell where you can play the ignore I think it might have been on Twitter a Twitter DM oh I see it yeah yeah I'll do that right now okay I'm late crafty heck yes we're adding you as a twitch mods up crafty thanks for being here doing it so you know they took us like 40 minutes all right cool oh wait I'm not logged into our twitch I'm elected my personal oh you said and I don't have the password on me for then so I can't actually are you logged in are they no you can report him just report him yeah what the hell your admin privileges have been revoked ah on your own channel right just - lame passwords we're sorry crafty we'll get you on the next or maybe after we cut after we do this half for some reason yeah do do them commands all right yes yes yay for commander thank you you should be able to mod it's an a dog and tuna har har who provided me with the actual commands that we needed to do as you can see well I'm glad that works because for some reason the icon for making him a mod well he's in there he's just gonna insta ban everyone in chat now check goes dead just fall silent hey to the James Webb telescope the James Webb Space Telescope do you remember when when we first talked about the James Webb Space Telescope Cal do you remember that yes do you remember what live show we talked about that on yeah resilient it was a pretty sure it was awesome harder no no that was not oh it was Oh was this the new egg one the one we did anyway yeah you remember you remember what the new egg life show is called no I don't wait why can I enroll it was cold it was help tab right yes the alt tab show yes oh no a glass show was when we when we first brought this up because we like to bring up science science related stories and stuff but that's right anyway it's been delayed like tons and tons of times which kind of sucks and now potentially delayed so much that the rocket that it was originally designed to be launched on which is the area and five launcher which NASA chose because it was a proven rocket and had launched more than a hundred times is gonna be phased out potentially before the James Webb telescope is actually ready ready to be launched and that that kind of sucks oh there's no more good pictures of what a shame yeah so um the actual agreement to use the Ariane 5 for the James Webb telescope was made back in 2015 that's why we discussed it so long ago when the expected Webb telescope launched was in 2018 yeah huh what seems I just I was like pictures of the James Webb telescope because it's got like these hex there's no there's not good pictures some good images it's got all the golden you memory gamer these pictures yes yeah I don't think golden hexagons and all these these all have to be like a lines super super precisely and everything mm-hmm here's it hey stop it here's an artist concept of it actually in space which may never actually happen all this work for nothing but yeah there there's some there's there's a lot of major good stuff that could do if it actually gets up there but it was laid and it was delayed into 2019 after originally being delayed till 2018 and has since been delayed twice more to 2020 in that now twenty twenty twenty one dam which is the same year that the Ariane 5 rocket is supposed to be decommissioned just like that flying is like it's like coffee like and if you're designing something like this specifically for use with a specific rocket then it's not like it's a easy task to just move it over to a different rocket now Arian area and space is developing a Arian six rocket so there is a possibility that they could go with that one instead but the head of the Arian group Elaine share mobile was not aware of any discussions with NASA on launching the Webb telescope on the area in six so I keep getting ripped out with my the word Aryan Aryan because yeah I keep thinking like Aryan race AR ia and II okay well how it's spelled that I can see the show doc but they can so I just want to make sure that we're not gonna appear like on headlines tomorrow like all I'm gathered lost some part of the tech news show discusses savage racism and master race issues or something so I've done nothing remotely close to that you just you're right you're just trying to did you I need you know you don't fit the description at all I'm trying to distract people from science with racism that's like that's always been my mo like America but but moving I'm in America alright um hopefully they figure that out because the amount alone people and chatter like that's how I heard it that's I see I saved are both of our asses mainly yours alright you're welcome next up my Aryan brother uh SpaceX has won its first Falcon Heavy contract with the Air Force now I want to point out there's actually two articles on this uh no description spaceflight now is a little bit more accurate with their headline that the US Air Force has certified the Falcon Heavy rocket and has awarded it with a launch contract there's the Vulcan heavy launch which was super awesome now to clarify the Falcon Heavy will be doing a couple launches in between what this is talking about and so it won't be the first launch with the air force the second launch of the Falcon Heavy rocket is scheduled for November of this year from Kennedy Space Center carrying numerous satellites into different orbits for the US military NASA and research institutions and then there's a third falcon heavy mission set for liftoff late this year or an early night 2019 which will launch the lockheed martin builds arabs at six a commercial communications for Saudi or Saudi Arabia's Arab set just short for Arabia and satellite I'm pretty sure but the the Falcon Heavy the the big Falcon rocket as it is affectionately affectionately known launched back in February if you guys don't recall that that was as I watched that I thought that was exciting it was cool big ol big ol launch of the the Tesla Roadster up into up into flight into the solar system where at least man whatever sort of orbit they put it in around the Sun but the Air Force was watching that closely of course and the launch itself was enough for the Air Force to certify the Falcon Heavy for carrying the military's most precious cargo cargo into orbit babies not babies military super soldiers that must be raised in low Earth orbits in order to be bombarded with gamma rays gamma radiation no I'm a starter don't thank you that would be kind of ended of that began it crazy that everyone assumes it's some bunch of technology that they've made this contract for what if it is just babies just babies super soldier babies that's what I think it might actually be being to be on mass killers yes so the Air Force's launched that that the article is actually talking about will beam in 2020 they're paying SpaceX a cool hundred and thirty million dollars but the contract awarded to them for this launch and it is a classified mission AF SPC fifty two is the mission and it looks like June June's my first oh no no it said sorry they announced it on June twenty first so this this information is a few weeks old but there was a competition between SpaceX and ula Boeing Lockheed make you make you LA but SpaceX one and now they're scheduling the launch in 2020 it's from the pad 39a at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida before the end of

that's a massive object devastated during this a long time ago and it never fully recovered wait didn't we didn't we talk about this yeah it's just I just said this is a rehash from last week all right mister I wanted to bring this back up and remind people yes yes that a massive object devastated Uranus a long time ago never forget that and it's really it's hard to mind it's hard to forget it's seared into many of our memories and pain receptors okay all right to be perfectly honest that's all of the like arranged content I have from my half of the show so from here on out we're gonna be winging it I'll be honest we've been winging it most of this time already but as we let's let's finish the show as we usually do by answering some questions that people have asked us along with monetary donations in chat you're not required to donate money for us to answer your question but we love you more if you do but we've never answered a question from somebody who didn't donate money what we used to and though they got too many questions yeah we used to but then there were all the money donations and we're like well people with money obviously should they we have more of a responsibility to answer them hey we don't care about money but we'll be raising the minimum donation amount everyone in twitch is pressing f to pay respects what do we owe for Uranus I don't know or they just have to pay respects for Uranus - according to this we're still streaming just to it just just twitch - fine so we're all gravy plate which is doing the EPS chillin YouTube's cool youtubes

with and right they're handmade in the USA so you can't go wrong there if any one one wants didn't you yeah yeah while back okay Asus has some really high end ones but they tend to be a little bit more on the expensive side but the nice easiest ones that I don't know the model name and the names of but they're like 300 bucks each those are pretty sweet everyone's saying that shit audio is really good shit Dax anybody shit DAC that's schi IT Nazi HIIT not that's awesome I think that's what I mean if this person spelling it right shit stack is good check them out judging from their name

the train you have fans of Boston yeah Oh Boston Boston's Greek I have some I have some fond memories of Boston mmm I've been back there in a while yeah it's some really good food never want to drive there never want to drive anywhere I lost it oh it's Dana it's dangerous city tunnels for attempting to drive anywhere too many phenols there's like there's like rivers and estuaries and stuff like that the tunnels go under and like a bunch of blood vessels are you in the wrong place nope really good clam chowder then thank you greet up Tyler sorry sorry singer Tyler Sayer $5 Kyle Heather do you like the litter robot three you did a video on about seven months ago is it worth the high price yes we we actually love it still using it still using it every day I haven't changed a litter box in like seven months that's what we got it's pretty awesome I mean granted it still work because you still have to take up take the tray out and replace the the trash bag right line the trash bag and you put it back in but you're doing that like once a week maybe once every two weeks depending on if you have one cat or two cats instead of like literally scooping it every day or every other day so it does help a lot but that she gets nasty so you have to clean it out every once a while like just like actually sort of take one or two pieces apart and like actually get like a hose out take it out in the backyard or front yard and hose it down probably do that maybe once a month once every other month wifey sauce takes care of that job I take care of the the trash removal and stuff but it works out and if if you have I would say it's worth it if you have two cats because the litter box will fill up twice as fast if you have two cats two or more then it's worth it if you only have one then you probably want it's only worth it if you're extremely lazy so it's good for a multi-cat household yes Thank You Tyler but zing X $15 thank you for your additional donation right yeah don't any more

goal is to start taking hero for walks again because I have been really bad about that since we got back from that's like a two for two because then here it gets to go outside and stuff I want yes it is it's been so hot lately though but yeah MB six or seven mister lenticular thank you for your 13 dollars and 37 cents donation just elite Cheers cheers to you as well host Jason Kristoff $9.99 hey Paul so my CPU voltage has always been between 4.4 and 4.6 know it has it know what hesitation I think you mean 1.4 on 1.6 yeah I turned off EP you power saving and now I have a decent OC between three people maybe he's talking about frequency turned off a few parts I mean I have a decent OC between 3.9 4.0 but the bus says keep it on off if OC your opinion okay wait okay I'm trying to break this then Jason your your message is not 100% understandable here but I think I get the gist of what you're saying first off voltage just as a general rule right now if you're talking AMD in particular I don't know if you're talking about AMD or Intel here that's another potential issue been ranked 1.4 is the max I would go try to keep it less than 1.4 if you're going a couple generations back on Intel then I would say like 1.25 or 1.3 is the max that you want to go but Verizon resin can handle 1.4 okay I didn't try to keep a little less than that if possible he's probably talking about an AMD based on the clock speeds he's giving us yeah I guess a 3.9 good out of work at your Hertz but if you are and again if you are talking about AMD and if you're talking about first generation rise it in particular than 3.9 or 4 gigahertz is perfectly fine and that's what you should expect yeah if you're talking about all core overclocking yeah EP power-saving though i believe is a asus feature and i would keep that on unless it is affecting your ability to maintain those clock speeds because Power Save Paris is always good speaking of saving power Kyle saving something right now oh no screaming why is your just in time for my half of the show my gosh what's going on razor blade Pro this is the first blue screen of farad from this laptop and I only use this laptop for
