Building "Party Monster" - Joe's 4K Video Editing PC

2016-09-19
excellent hey what's up everyone I have a build video for you guys today and this one is kind of unplanned because my editor Joe hit me up and basically editing videos for me over a long period of time has given him the I must build a computer bug like right now so he bought some parts I have some parts also that I'm going to provide to him and then we also have his old system that he has been using to build computers so we're going to take a look at his old system and then we're gonna like upgrade it to a new system specifically for Joe to edit videos and 4k and stuff I'm going to call this new series configure my system by the way there's Joe hey Joe he's going to be editing this video on this computer that hasn't even been built yet which is kind of a weird like that's like looking into the future right now so this computer here is actually a computer that I built several years ago it's had several different revisions it uses a 39 60 X for the CPU at the middle so it's an X 79 motherboard from gigabytes it's got I believe 32 gigs of memory in it right now and it's got a couple different SSDs this is an OC z Revo Drive SSD right here there's also a OCZ vector 240 gig SSD that's right there and then Joe also has a mechanical drive there for long-term storage and that kind of thing there's a GTX 670 for the graphics card and we're using that with CUDA acceleration for Adobe Premiere to you know make sure that the overlays and special effects and everything we're good now why isn't Joe satisfied with this computer that's a good question you guys might look at this computer and be like this is an awesome computer I'd be super happy with it but Joe was like no it sucks I need a better one that's not exactly what he said but Joe why do you need a better computer than this mainly for After Effects okay so Joe's does After Effects and After Effects just eats up memory right that and also want to edit a 4k and editing at 4k so maybe maybe Paul will actually have 4k videos on his channel now and Joe does that other work for other people too should that should go without saying so anyway we're going to move Joe up to X 99 and we're also going to Joe up to a 5820k this is the processor right here and this is actually an engineering sample processor I'm going to be lending Joe this for the time being and that's going to go along with the gigabyte x99 g1 gaming motherboard this is their retail box they've kind of gobbled with a little bit more of a minimalist look for their retail box this time around gigabyte but it's okay there it is okay so the x99 ultra gaming not although it does say g1 game that's confusing I'm confused a good bite anyway it's a very nice x99 motherboard that is the point so I recommended that he gets a 64 gig kit because he wanted a hundred and twenty eight gigs at first and then he actually realized that the 5820k doesn't support a hundred twenty eight gigs which I didn't realize although I probably would have figured it out eventually anyway back to the point which is this is a lot of memory and only four sticks so 16 gigs per dim and it's only going to use four of the eight memory slots so if Joe decides in the future he wants to upgrade and make this an even more beastly system for editing he can by simply swapping that 5820k for a Broadwell e CPU like a 6800 or 68 50k or heck even a 69 50 X if you can find someone to murder and steal theirs because who wants to spend $700 on one of those and then he could of course upgrade his memory as well to get up 228 gigs but we'll see how 64 gigs works for now for the rest of the parts we are going to upgrade the case so we have a corsair 540 here if you guys were disappointed that i didn't build the monthly build in the course area 540 if you're not we're going to have a build on that right now replacing a corsair case with a corsair case this is the 600 t which is also some of the carbide series this one I was like it's this one's quite old now though like it has a pass-through for the USB 3 and that kind of thing this will be a good case though a nice upgrade from the 600 T and some nice new features there for a graphics card we got the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 less expensive than the GTX 1080 almost as many cuda cores and as long as you go and edit the text file and Adobe Premiere Pro or of Adobe Premiere CC or whatever you can still use the gtx 1070 cuda acceleration while you're editing which is nice we have a 80 plus gold power supply Thermaltake v PSG 750 watt again getting the job done so I got pretty decent cables mostly I'll black and everything a couple red plugs but we're actually going to be reusing Joe's air cooler in here this is probably the most dubious part of this build only because I've never heard of this before Joe found this and installed it himself because there was a closed loop cooler in the system before that started failing so Joe did a great job with this and I'm you know it's been working fine for now and it's got support for the LGA 2011 and 2011 - 3 socket so we're just going to keep using it and you know if it doesn't work well upgraded in the future and finally for storage this is the corsair Neutron XT this is a 480 given model so this is going to be the operating system drive and it's going to have plenty of storage for SSD space Joe wanted a drive for the operating system and applications that's what this is going to be he's also going to keep using that OCZ vector SSD 240 in there and that will be for storing raw data and then we're going to keep using the Revo drive PCIe as well and that will be a cache drive so anyway that's enough talking about the build let's build the built array yay we pulled this off of Joe's old build now we know using too much thermal paste is is not bad but it's not the best item it's I like how it's hanging down it's got the strings given the old full processor out of there good old 39 60 X set Berks girls lined up yeah right it's pretty good to me I didn't even have time to say something scary and what goes next this yeah there's an inside one and an outside one and I didn't want you to lift them up so hey what wait cringe factor I could just read the comments already Jesus Christ that's all right Joe I don't know how to do this a day um okay so do this one first no no no not that one this one first the one the one that put that clamps that side down yeah as what I was doing see that was right I was shining it easy does this Popoff it should you just lift it okay if you is installed so wait oh yeah what colour should be black so you're gonna do four slots basically this one that one that one in that nook and this does not have a latch on that side so it just is straight yeah yeah all right we're gonna laugh at myself sad flirting experience ASA started that trend tonight just one snap hey good yes let's play Danah strings keeps coming out this is the top that's beautiful myself that's kind of like art bird okay you should use After Effects to make that blob come to life that goes down on top are you touched it flush it area like I want to make a nipple joke I don't want it just weakens she's got to give him equal time that's the main thing always one gets jealous there's I think yeah when I got this fan was wanted to get the tip to 12 vibrant favorite youth will ya closet cooler master yeah but I didn't have this I got this guy I didn't know anything about this plastic things so it works but it's got nice cool rubber fan mounts for 120 millimeter fan it does have direct contact copper heat pipes down at the bottom so this is definitely PC cooler whatever company this is I don't know where they're based or anything but it's certainly a hyper tooth well you know equivalent or knockoff or however you want to say that not quite as nice put it this have a metal mounting on the base and everything that this fan mount system is definitely not that great using these rubber things I mean considering the hyper 212 they don't use anything too much more fancy these little little metal wires that aren't that expensive but gotta cut costs here's the trick here's the real trick to case opening is these finger flaps right here a because people therefore teri yeah these will really mess you up trying to open the case you got to reach in here and pull that out like that so do that to the other side too now just lift that up top okay set that to the side now you're about to get shocked you will always get shocked right now by the case I find the best way to do it is to just take my my elbow right and just touch your elbow right there or your pan it's lack they supposed to do work just sorry so we don't see color here falls over snaps in Lock and Load so Joe is using a sharpie to mark the i/o shields because we ran into a little bit of a dilemma this is a white box motherboard from gigabyte came with no accessories at all which meant no i/o shield fortunately though I do have the sister board to the g1 gaming or the game gaming ultra which is right over here the ultra durable what does I don't even know this is the x99 designate of course of course it is which has a nearly identical rear i/o panel and I am not using i/o shield right now there's just a single USB port that is blocked it's that red one right there the display port in is now going to be the USB type-c still access to that so cut that out and everything will be fine oh good wana snaps let's it gets out a little bit of time so this is how you build a computer right yeah this is a pretty standard procedure step in the computer building process okay the hack pack sublet so multiply the i/o shield doesn't sound horrible at all hey it's kind of man damn isn't there like a you can't even tell it's not the right eye oh she oh that's perfect all right lined up time for screws I have a real color scheme in mind it's perfect it's red black and white looks beautiful you know accent oh look at that back clipping you know to my Bexley alright the build has been assembled and looks pretty good and Joe's doing the first time power on yay it appears to work sweet oh those leds leds everywhere red and yellow and blue beautiful beautiful what's wrong Paul that's the problem I don't know turns out an op though I've seen first part slightly relieved because we're not getting a video signal yeah nobody so you guys missed sort of a brief interlude we went and had dinner and we had to take a break cuz we came across a dilemma which was that we had no video out when we got the system all up and running I think what it actually was was a bios issue on this motherboard I ended up doing the gigabytes q-flash plus I believe is what it's called to update the BIOS via just the USB Drive plugged into the back of the system this is very similar to the Asus USB BIOS flash back feature that was able to update the bounce to the latest version we were still not getting any video out of the graphics card in this slot I actually moved it to the fourth slot or the third yeah fourth slot down here and then I was able to get video out and then we saw that was trying to do a BIOS rebuild which we might have i I'll take responsibility I might have restarted in the middle of a couple times anyway after moving it there we were able to get a video signal the BIOS updated and then we switched the graphics card back to the slot and now works so we're good Windows is installed and Joe is very excited cuz he was starting to get sad that he wasn't going to be able to take his computer home today did only a little lonely I know that would be so sad so any guys Windows is installed we were going to do some like fancy end of the video shots of this system and everything but honestly it is getting late and we're both tired so we'll leave you with this it looks pretty nice it's red and black and also blue and also some yellow the colour scheme and this is a little bit it's kind of friendly I think it's very it's got a party atmosphere going on inside oh but we've also reconnected the extra drive so he's booting off of that 240 gig Drive there's a 480 gig SSD so 2 SSDs that are in the back on the other side 3 terabyte drive is now installed down here via the backplane I like that thank you for ser for installing that little feature and then also the Revo drive although this sup or the driver still needs to be installed for that so Joe time for you to edit this video oh hey hey suppose I pull off a fasting for the oh yeah let's do that let's do that it's glorious you guys are welcome all right guys hit the thumbs-up button thanks for watching hope you enjoyed subscribe if you liked and want to see more have a good one see you next time later
