last week we started a new series called address the yes where I go through comments and read and answer questions that would take usually too long to reply to a simple text messages or there's things I've got to add to the conversation here we are at episode soon anyway the first question we got up here is from mcg tech came from last week's episode he says address the yes question I was wondering if you have any recommendations for smaller computer focused channels specifically on how to get discovered and set yourself apart from the crowd thanks in advance if you're in it to sort of set yourself apart from the crowd then you may be shifting from your focus and that your focus should be based on your passion make what you enjoy if you don't enjoy making YouTube videos then just don't make them I got into YouTube just helping people out not really enjoyed it and I wanted to show people new things and that's what I'm doing with those used builds really set apart a whole new community in ways whoever I've got this whole used parts hustle market now it's a lot of fun you can join the discord where everyone's always chatting about new sort of ways to make a best price performance PC got some cool content coming up with with one of the viewers as well Harrow so that'll be awesome stay tuned for that but in terms of YouTube itself if you want to get views apparently the algorithm favors people who bring in viewers from outside of YouTube so if you'll bring in new viewers to the platform YouTube will then favor your videos and start ranking them higher that's just what I've heard because it actually is as well a team of people at YouTube that select specific videos and promote them as well so there is favoritism going on I just don't know really much about it I just keep doing what I enjoy and don't try to think about it but at the end of the day YouTube is a business just like any other business they're in it to make money next up we got Batsy 22 we asked daddy what happened to the five pcs for underprivileged kids nothing's happened to him they're sitting under my desk and this is I guess in what ways represents a problem that exists in 2018 and that is this so much red tape I've gone to different schools I finally got what's called a blue card in Australia where I can now go to a school and actually give these pcs away to people before that I wasn't even allowed to give them away so now I've got the blue card I can do that and next week I'm making be making an update video on what's going on with the progress of that it's just funny because when I was a kid and we went to school there'd be like outside people say people from the farm or some person would come into the school and they'd just give away products and stuff and you'd be like okay cool you could just use them nowadays is just so much red tape but I guess that exists because there's needs to be laws to protect people against the uprising of so many idiots in society nowadays so what can you do about it next iPhone EB he says your YouTube video thing 100k whatever frames slightly off-centre wd-40 is good shares I've used contact cleaner and brutally damaged components because of it brake cleaner is just nasty try some silicon spray used to work good back in the day making the engine bay of the GTR 32 looked good first of all GDR 32 the engine bay does look really good I do agree in terms of using other products I think my tech yes cleanses down pat I've never busted a product using brake cleaner or wd-40 never in fact I've brought parts back to life using these products so I stand by them I love them they do help sell the final product really well too so I have first off I'll start off with brake cleaner of course cleanse all the real dirty stuff out of there then after that use the wd-40 to give it that new look shine the tech yes process it works for me and I keep doing it if it doesn't work for you that's cool next up we got Ozzy bogan Tech how you doing man I really enjoyed it when you chopped up that AMD box I think it was the rise in unboxing but he says just a heads up this one did not show up in my notifications very good video glad I didn't miss it again right this is a YouTube thing I've addressed them on Twitter I've told them what's going on with my channel I recently got a new partner manager the old partner manager he did ignore quite a few of my emails so hopefully the new partner manager can help me out and things can sort of get back to even normal but thanks for letting us know man next up we've got Ibiza Anton do you have to overclock Xeon CPUs to get the best performance out of them and the answer is first generation definitely you can get some massive performance gains in some cases you can get up to like 40 percent extra performance by overclocking highly recommended but then we go into the second gen series from Sandy Bridge onwards you start to get lockdown CPUs so you can really only overclock the 1650 and 1680 v2 for the third generation and then after that Intel just started completely locking out everything so if its first gen yes do overclock it if you can after second gen it doesn't matter a whole lot unless you're getting the 1650 or 1680 v2 and also I've got overclocking tutorials for x58 and check it out up here and there's an X 34:40 and they're really good too for the money and let's read the next comment which is from sever I didn't get a notification and it didn't appear in my sub box for whatever reason I noticed a new upload from the recommended tab after watching LTT god bless LTT then yeah if YouTube can't save us maybe he can next up Jesse he says Brian most of your builds are Intel based could you do an older AMD built-in overclock et cetera maybe FX series thanks for the question Jesse and a with the FX series I have done a video quite recently with the FX 8350 and in general I don't do a lot of them especially compared to the old Zeon's and the old Intel i5 the nice evans because they're a lot cheaper and they perform a lot better especially in games not to mention they don't put out as much heat so not only is the builds going to be better but also for me personally on the slide the resale value is going to be better FX 8350 s at the moment they are a little bit overpriced in a couple of days ago I did the top CPUs and actually talked about that directly and they're just for what they're the motherboards you will generally want to get a more expensive motherboard like a 990 FX because that'll help overclock the 8 core for instance the FX 8320 a lot better than a cheaper motherboard would in that build that I did I had a 970 board and that was throttling because the vrm couldn't handle the 8 core and this was only at 4.4 gigahertz which is a mild overclock for an FX 8350 and I had to put a fan on that thing just to get it working normally and so that's the need to have a good borden if you're spending that much money on a 990 FX board and Wisel get an X 58 motherboard or go a different route next up child of light says a couple of wd-40 sprays to me nether regions and me Bulls have sprouted back out that's great to hear man I'm glad wd-40 your dysfunctions it generally fixes everything next up DG born he says raid isn't a backup and that's your opinion my opinion is that it does backup things for me I have it on my computer for instance a video file I'll then copy it to the raid 5 and that's a backup I mean I don't know what else I call that just a copy store next up Ozzie 10 man says goog on works really well cleaning up PC parts I don't know if you have that in a you do you cleans anything a little less harsh on equipment and hands I believe we do have this at Bunnings I just haven't tried it looks pretty expensive I might give it a go just for you next up a less key Dabra Volsky he says but haven't you told that Koon app is really great no and as he's taught TV I guess they came in for the save they said we can both be great that's the point of fair honest competition I do agree with that I will say that I am replaced the QNAP with the azuz tour the nasty a s 4040 it's a amazingness especially for the money and I represent value for money I try to at least a lot of the times that's why I switch my rig to X 79 and this Nass represents really good value for money so the Q DAP it's really good don't get me wrong but it is a lot more expensive than the zoo store variant it's for more like even from my situation I don't need it it's just too much so if you're like a small business and you need really fast speeds then the Q net might be for you but if you're a small like office or just a studio or something like that and you need just a reliable little unit but need faster than one gigabit per second then the zoo store is definitely worth a look next up we got to find oh three one six three six we'd like to see a video about your network setup in the yes to do wireless hardware slash switching hardware slash router etc I would say yes but there's just too many promises at the moment once I fulfill those once all the promises that I've said I promise the viewers are done then I'll open up a video and they'll be like guys apply for new promises and videos want to see not sure when that will happen and again not making any promises next up now we got mocked re Abdul Majid I hope I got that right but yes what kind of glasses do you put are they for PC use only so now I've got reading glasses and this came about because the sponsor contacted me and then at the time they just said we want to collaborate with you and I said I don't know if I need glasses or not so they recommended I go to the eye doctor the optometrist that's what I'm looking for they recommended I go to the optometrist I did and the optometrist here locally recommended I get 0.5 0.5 prescription and when they showed me at the shop I was like wow this is really good helps my eyes a lot so I told the sponsor them to send us out that prescription and they did and their glasses were really good and I've got now reading glasses that I generally like to use at night time especially when my eyes are getting tired I'll I don't need glasses I don't have to have them but they definitely help with my eyes and help relax them especially at nighttime next I got Jamie Williams and he commented last week but he said he forgot to tell us that he's using a not Schuette 14 and it's a 4790k it's deleted and he's used mx4 pastes and he's still getting roughly 70 degrees at 4.8 gigahertz and he's down clocked at a 4.6 and now he's getting pretty much the same cinnamon score so I guess that 4.8 wasn't that stable maybe it's probably on the verge of not being stable but mx4 for what it's worth i wouldn't use that on going for a relatively high overclock like 4.8 gigahertz on the 4790k I've done a thermal paste video in the past you can check it out up here a gelid extreme is actually a lot better than it makes for for these kind of situations so maybe give that a shot and let us know how your overclock then goes next up we've got Daniel C he says you actually know how to play dota not like RG in HD mid feeding without einem okay I haven't seen this yet I'm gonna go watch it and I'll have a laugh but in terms of dota 2 I loved playing a bit of storm spirit I used to play tusks competitively but they nerfed him so hard that I just really stopped enjoying playing competitively now I just played turbo mode for what it's worth and that's a lot of fun next up we've got you on 1999 he says okay thanks to this vid price is going to go back up here in Singapore you're welcome and Jay says does anyone know if these mining cars tend to have had their BIOS has changed is that a concern that's if you're purchasing one off a minor they might mod the BIOS and that optimizes them for mining that it might be at the detriment of giving you less FPS if you guys don't know and so it can of course be a detriment of performance but generally for minor sells that card it's going to I'm sure that flash it back to the original BIOS which was intended for gaming if they haven't you can just ask them or of course it's not gonna affect performance that much you only gonna bro we get a little drop in that case if you're getting the card for a really good deal and you don't know how to flash the boss then you're still gonna be better off in my opinion next up newts 88 he says why was there no GTX 970 on the list he's referring to the recent GPU video I did put a link up here for you guys and it's on the list it's still good it's even better than the r7 260x in 750ti yes it is better than both those gravis cards I'd say it's even better than both of them combined their total scores but it's the GTX 970 is I guess it's one of the most sought out cards that use price performance hunters go for and so without so much competition form that I generally don't bother looking for him to be honest a lot of people always looking for a GTX 970 and so with that the prices generally go up and so I just in the past I haven't picked up a whole lot of GTX 970 s to be honest and so with that I've just my experiences just really don't make me recommend them to the average person which was where that GPU guy was intended for to go out and buy one next up we got the final revelation he says I was thinking about ordering a 70 TTI from aliexpress for my cousin can anyone recommend a tested vendor I know many of these cards are fake with edited BIOS the zotac ones on Aliexpress will be diligent the cells have legit feedback Aliexpress is well they do guarantee the sale so if you have a problem you can just put in a complaint you'll get a refund if it's a faulty item or a dodgy item even better dare I say than eBay's protection next up savage he says gtx970 is worth looking into let's say I could pick one up for 150 Ozzy would that be a good deal for a GTX 970 or should I spend that 150 on something else for 150 for a 970 AUD thats Aussie dollars that's a good deal go get it next up we got masterful is he says how good's that blower vac thing I got the same one it's so powerful and he's referring to the data back I got this earlier in the year and it is such a good tool it is like one of the best tools I've got in terms of working with PCs you just turn it on and it just blows out a heap of air an TST as well for the people with OCD and it's also now being coupled with the wd-40 at the same time ago this new metal where I just sprayed at the same time seriously if you're working with pcs even remotely every week get yourself one of these you're not gonna regret it next up cod wolf Pete he says this guy looks like Tom Cruise I said last week it was Lord Baelish now this week is Tom Cruise you guys have to make up your mind and a - Chuck Robb or t he says his ebay reliable yeah he Bay's pretty reliable the actual ebay place itself some of the people on the marketplace may not be however just like any avenue where you can buy and sell there's always gonna be shady sellers a good thing about eBay is you got PayPal PayPal will protect your purchase and first name last name he says is that corsair carbide 540 air behind can you make video of it I have similar case maybe I can learn from you fi40 it's my main rig the x79 rig is in that case and the fi40 I have to say it's the best case of all time at least for me I love this thing you just install your hardware you've got air flow from the get-go looks amazing so easy to work with if Corsair do release an update to this case they've got a very hard task ahead of them I mean of course they could just add RGB but would that really be an upgrade and his Dan Phillips he asked aren't warranties non-transferable in australia they actually are transferable you just got to have the original receipt to prove that that item was purchased at that particular date I'm not sure about other countries but generally it's they are and Gila chaos he says a spread method master race genius next up heartsick disciple says I never pre-ordered why buy something without knowing how it performs every ring is generally for people who just can't wait to get a product they want to make sure that they get that product on day one they may be a rabid fanboy for that particular brand of product and this whole pre-order controversy has definitely come about for discussion after the announcement of the r-tx 2007 and that was really bad I mean that was just such a shill article if one could call it that the wording in there like how much of your life do you want to miss out not having ray-tracing or something it was ridiculous as an independent review site you should not be using that terminology it was so oh man I mean I read it I was just like no this is not good for anyone but in terms of reordering me personally I do disagree with other people it's your money you can do what you like with it should you preorder it's up to you me personally would I pre-order in RTX 2007 I'm putting myself in someone else's shoes if I was someone that played video games day-in day-out and I made good money and I wanted the latest and greatest day one then I probably would pre-order one so it's different strokes for different folks if you want to understand why people would preorder it's because it may be their passion and that's what they love doing next up we got nasty Nate he says not gonna lie you got a sexy librarian thing going on okay so we have the librarian we've got Tom Cruise and we got Lord Baelish seriously guys please make up your minds next I've got a frame collazo jr. says I recommend asking the - what settings they use instead of leading them to the answer you're looking for basically they provide the settings instead of a yes-or-no mentality if you're if you talk to someone and you ask them is was this graphics card mind on and they say yes and then you say was it overclocked or did you under voltage that's not a yes or no question that's sort of just like they got to tell you so I don't know maybe I yeah I do agree though yes or no answer isn't the best outcome there but you could generally tell if someone knows what they're talking about or doesn't know what they're talking about when it comes to giving you a response the ps4 dans la jetée atum-ra 78 he says did I miss the legendary sr to build it's been a while since we've been promised that build it has been and it's coming I've linked up with tag mods who does custom pcs we're gonna be doing a very special project with the SR 2 I owe it to you guys out to the person who donated the motherboard I ought to me I ought to the world it's gonna be coming I'd be doing 3 videos when we get this built in action it's lined up before pax because I'm hoping to drive down there and on the way stop off at Ethan's house and we're gonna get this epic build done it's coming don't worry next up chosen Stan Lee he says loll its Aliexpress never trust Aliexpress mul I've bought so many items from Aliexpress and so many other people have and we've never had a problem long and last up we got Chrome who says am I the only one that likes the smell of wd-40 no I love the smell of wd-40 and 31 other people also like the smell of wd-40 next time we got crackling ice and he says if the cod was set at a hundred percent fan speeds it's a no buy in caps he states that a hundred percent fan speeds wears them out faster and is not needed sincerely a miner himself for me personally I was mining as well and my experience the hundred cent fan speeds made the graphics cards the coolest possible and those fans if you talking about the actual fans themselves wearing out they're generally rated for 50,000 hours to a hundred and fifty thousand hours mean time before failure and that's like at least five years plus and so the ten series cards have only been out for two years so I not sure where you're going with this and that wraps up this week's episode I hope you guys enjoyed it if you did then be sure to hit that like button if you have any questions that
