  • 00:10:09
    require anti-che and so that's going to
  • 00:10:12
    have the windows drive and because it's
  • 00:10:13
    a dual streaming setup I can reboot this
  • 00:10:15
    computer without having to worry about
  • 00:10:16
    the stream going down nice yeah okay
  • 00:10:19
    that's pretty cool this is so overkilled
  • 00:10:22
    dude you've got 32 gigs of ram in here
  • 00:10:25
    yeah a freaking 12 core processor yeah
  • 00:10:28
    well that was my main gaming PC like
  • 00:10:30
    like you could have flipped some of this
  • 00:10:31
    stuff and gone with something more
  • 00:10:33
    modest well no no that wouldn't be the
  • 00:10:35
    Elijah way yeah never sell anything
  • 00:10:37
    exactly where's your back plate for this
  • 00:10:40
    I'm going to need that let me go take a
  • 00:10:42
    look all right the man who keeps
  • 00:10:45
    everything accept his mounting hardware
  • 00:10:48
    new plan the PC will be powered by cat
  • 00:10:51
    Monty you're so cute here's our plan
  • 00:10:54
    okay I install the old cooler again but
  • 00:10:57
    I do it properly this time and then we
  • 00:10:59
    just have a gap in the rack and it has
  • 00:11:02
    no top panel installed I'm fine with
  • 00:11:03
    that that's actually what I was going to
  • 00:11:05
    suggest so I hate that so much yeah well
  • 00:11:08
    it's better than someone driving back to
  • 00:11:09
    the
  • 00:11:11
    office I haven't even commented on the
  • 00:11:13
    fact that his TV is on that wall and his
  • 00:11:15
    couch is on that wall how the do you
  • 00:11:18
    watch TV like that so
  • 00:11:20
    like is this
  • 00:11:22
    how it's normally like this I moved out
  • 00:11:25
    of the way just for the shoot sure I
  • 00:11:27
    well I also have a VR headset we could
  • 00:11:28
    set it up today you want then I have VR
  • 00:11:30
    room but that's way over scoped we're
  • 00:11:32
    already building three computers it's
  • 00:11:34
    not like you need a room scale
  • 00:11:35
    experience for what you're doing in it
  • 00:11:37
    where's this tissue box stop bet it's I
  • 00:11:40
    bet it's right there
  • 00:11:41
    stop I have a wife I don't need to
  • 00:11:45
    actually don't leave that in my
  • 00:11:48
    wife would my wife would fing kill me no
  • 00:11:50
    you dare leave that in oh you've got the
  • 00:11:54
    Precision that actually would be a more
  • 00:11:55
    appropriate where did where did the
  • 00:11:56
    screwdriver go I was like so scared for
  • 00:11:59
    a second this is Kyle's personal so I
  • 00:12:01
    got so worried uh Hey where's the
  • 00:12:03
    mounting hardware for your case oh
  • 00:12:05
    that's in the server rack oh my God I
  • 00:12:07
    completely overlooked the server rack
  • 00:12:10
    Facebook Marketplace $100 liking these
  • 00:12:13
    cases pretty simple this is the same
  • 00:12:15
    company that made that Cerberus little
  • 00:12:17
    matx gaming saem that I have right
  • 00:12:19
    sliger yeah that's yeah they they have
  • 00:12:21
    multiple depths as well and different
  • 00:12:22
    like options so you can actually get
  • 00:12:24
    ones with 5.25 bays and other front IO
  • 00:12:27
    and stuff I went with these because my
  • 00:12:29
    server rack is pretty shallow so this is
  • 00:12:31
    the shallowest they make this case and
  • 00:12:33
    they actually don't sell Pink as one of
  • 00:12:35
    the options oh they reached out and they
  • 00:12:37
    were like hey we've been wanting to send
  • 00:12:38
    it to someone does the person who's
  • 00:12:41
    getting the upgrade want it and I said
  • 00:12:42
    hell yeah man these guys really don't
  • 00:12:44
    mess around with the number of screws
  • 00:12:45
    they include with this
  • 00:12:47
    case look at this uh I need a power
  • 00:12:49
    supply what am I using the old one oh
  • 00:12:53
    right you're putting a 1200 WT 80 plus
  • 00:12:57
    Platinum power supply in a freaking
  • 00:12:58
    second AR computer I need the I want to
  • 00:13:01
    make sure that this one never fails this
  • 00:13:04
    one can't fail actually do you know
  • 00:13:06
    which one did fail we just published the
  • 00:13:08
    labs result for the one that's going in
  • 00:13:09
    the NZ and it
  • 00:13:11
    failed both stopped functioning before
  • 00:13:14
    we completed our tests so we cannot
  • 00:13:16
    recommend it oh hey there we go nice now
  • 00:13:21
    I've got enough room for your stupid
  • 00:13:23
    Overkill power supply honestly hanging
  • 00:13:25
    out with Elijah makes me so much more
  • 00:13:27
    offended by just the exploitative sales
  • 00:13:30
    tactics that companies use to get people
  • 00:13:33
    to waste their money mhm I have this is
  • 00:13:36
    who they're exploiting the face is this
  • 00:13:38
    and the name is Elijah C for you am I
  • 00:13:42
    putting the Elgato card in here no you
  • 00:13:45
    we are
  • 00:13:46
    putting where'd it go the a media one
  • 00:13:49
    okay so I'm putting the live gamer duo
  • 00:13:50
    in yeah okay it's got two inputs one can
  • 00:13:53
    do 4K 60 or in my case 1440p 120 and one
  • 00:13:59
    we'll just do 1080p60 which is perfect
  • 00:14:00
    cuz for my webcam basically perfect I'm
  • 00:14:03
    pretty close to done this build I guess
  • 00:14:05
    they didn't include any fan screws
  • 00:14:06
    though right just about to put in fans
  • 00:14:09
    well just zip tie them that's what
  • 00:14:10
    Colin's doing what no yeah just take the
  • 00:14:12
    lean Lee ones and zip tie them but no
  • 00:14:15
    those
  • 00:14:16
    are I thought you were telling me take
  • 00:14:18
    the lean Lee ones to get the screws from
  • 00:14:20
    them no no no why are all of your fans
  • 00:14:22
    zip tie cuz I didn't have any
  • 00:14:24
    [Laughter]
  • 00:14:26
    screws I'm getting that weird head I get
  • 00:14:30
    where like I'm light headed from how
  • 00:14:32
    stupid something is like that's a
  • 00:14:34
    special headache Elijah you're welcome I
  • 00:14:37
    also got these two 27in Dell monitors
  • 00:14:39
    they do 75 HZ 1080p these are just going
  • 00:14:42
    to be for my streaming computer on the
  • 00:14:44
    side so that way I can like watch OBS
  • 00:14:45
    and chat so then I will take my current
  • 00:14:48
    monitor situation and I have another
  • 00:14:49
    similar stand that we're going to do on
  • 00:14:51
    the other side so then I'll have five
  • 00:14:52
    monitors total I have all the screens it
  • 00:14:55
    booted oh you finished with the nas
  • 00:14:57
    perfect it does does have display ports
  • 00:15:00
    but the CPU that's in here the 5,500
  • 00:15:02
    doesn't actually support onboard
  • 00:15:03
    Graphics so we're not going to be able
  • 00:15:05
    to get a display on it but I did
  • 00:15:07
    pre-install the SSD it's configured so
  • 00:15:10
    once we connect Network to it we'll be
  • 00:15:11
    able to see our
  • 00:15:12
    nashar but we can see at least if it
  • 00:15:14
    boots up oh
  • 00:15:17
    she so we got our fan filter nice these
  • 00:15:21
    will definitely stay dust and cat hair
  • 00:15:23
    free or at least they would if this was
  • 00:15:25
    going to have a top on it well we're
  • 00:15:27
    going to just lay the top on top like we
  • 00:15:28
    just like yeah okay are we putting this
  • 00:15:30
    in there or what yeah Elijah are you
  • 00:15:32
    going to put any of the PCI covers in no
  • 00:15:33
    I don't it's extra air flow no it's
  • 00:15:35
    going to take so long take some pride in
  • 00:15:38
    your

    deck my go XLR there look how much more
  • 00:15:55
    quality that looks it's going to be in
  • 00:15:57
    the server you're not even going be able
  • 00:15:58
    to see it use zip ties to install your
  • 00:16:00
    fan so that's all we need to know about

  • 00:16:51
    hey now we're racking boys time for the
  • 00:16:54
    navs Colin you closed it
  • 00:16:56
    up well we got we got to show the people
  • 00:16:59
    what's ins if he wasn't so funny all the
  • 00:17:02
    things he says I don't think we'd put up
  • 00:17:04
    with having him around that's true goon
  • 00:17:08
    cave I thought we took the pin back
  • 00:17:11
    how'd you get it I blame you I don't
  • 00:17:12
    know wait you didn't hook up all your
  • 00:17:14
    backplane that's fine I only have eight
  • 00:17:16
    available because of this LSI card okay
  • 00:17:19
    so this is really practical then you can
  • 00:17:20
    get LSI cards that could do four of
  • 00:17:22
    these cables to do 16 drives this does
  • 00:17:25
    10 3.5s and 4 2.5S right so you should
  • 00:17:28
    gotten one of those then I should have
  • 00:17:30
    you need another fan these cards are not
  • 00:17:33
    designed to sit here with absolutely
  • 00:17:35
    nothing on like they got a little heat
  • 00:17:37
    sink on them because they are expecting
  • 00:17:39
    to be in a server or workstation with a
  • 00:17:41
    lot of airf flow you need a fan here
  • 00:17:42
    okay well good thing I grabbed the noons
  • 00:17:45
    oh shoot I used them all uh solve your
  • 00:17:47
    problem thank you what is this one it's
  • 00:17:49
    from your air cooler that we didn't use
  • 00:17:51
    oh okay cool a realistically steal more
  • 00:17:53
    fans from work don't do that Alex gave
  • 00:17:55
    me permission Alex doesn't own them he's
  • 00:17:59
    in charge of the inventory he's in
  • 00:18:00
    charge of protecting the inventory so he
  • 00:18:03
    knows what he can let slip by do you
  • 00:18:05
    want to know what he sold me well I have
  • 00:18:06
    two computers now right so that would in
  • 00:18:08
    turn mean I need two keyboards and two
  • 00:18:12
    mice this is why he doesn't want me
  • 00:18:14
    going into that room so I bought the
  • 00:18:17
    original belfine keyboard kit from
  • 00:18:20
    inventory um so you have two of them now
  • 00:18:23
    well yeah I have one of each she looks
  • 00:18:25
    all innocent but she's a predator you
  • 00:18:27
    know that right why she Praise
  • 00:18:30
    on well people like you that's fine I'll
  • 00:18:33
    take
  • 00:18:34
    it there that's kind of like yeah that's
  • 00:18:37
    good
  • 00:18:38
    enough it's good enough I swear he puts
  • 00:18:41
    more time and Research into things when
  • 00:18:43
    he like produces videos for you guys he
  • 00:18:45
    cares a lot do you remember our first
  • 00:18:48
    video
  • 00:18:50
    nope what are you planning to store on
  • 00:18:52
    this I shouldn't ask actually forget it
  • 00:18:55
    forget I asked no I no you stream that
  • 00:18:57
    you don't need to store that on hard
  • 00:18:59
    drive yeah exactly I also record a
  • 00:19:01
    backup of every stream because you can
  • 00:19:03
    record out of OBS at a higher bit rate
  • 00:19:05
    than twitch allows you to upload to so
  • 00:19:07
    then you get a higher quality source
  • 00:19:08
    file look at that they don't go all yeah
  • 00:19:11
    this is as far as they go uh no I'm so
  • 00:19:14
    triggered right now okay fine then just
  • 00:19:16
    do
  • 00:19:18
    this oh no had you considered a KVM I
  • 00:19:23
    considered it I didn't like the idea of
  • 00:19:24
    it I wanted the second Bel doine
  • 00:19:26
    keyboard a KVM would have allowed him
  • 00:19:28
    especially one from Wendell those are
  • 00:19:30
    super cool they'll do like quad monitors
  • 00:19:32
    off of a single one so you can just
  • 00:19:34
    switch between the computers and have
  • 00:19:35
    the same set of peripherals monitor
  • 00:19:37
    keyboard and mouse for both of them uh
  • 00:19:39
    but instead he'd rather clutter up his
  • 00:19:41
    desk with more eirl merchandise yeah we
  • 00:19:45
    need networking but I bought the dream
  • 00:19:46
    machine SE oh that's cute foam yeah it's
  • 00:19:50
    actually cool I like it how cute their
  • 00:19:51
    foam is it's the cutest foam yeah I
  • 00:19:56
    unironically play with it for 5 minutes
  • 00:19:57
    at work when I unboxed the
  • 00:19:59
    it acts as an NVR so you can have
  • 00:20:01
    security cameras and all that it acts as
  • 00:20:03
    a router it acts as a switch um it acts
  • 00:20:07
    as a UniFi controller so you can add any
  • 00:20:09
    UniFi devices you like without needing a
  • 00:20:11
    cloud key or anything like that and it
  • 00:20:13
    needs some ears yes where's your ears at
  • 00:20:15
    right here where do you want it top uh
  • 00:20:16
    right here nice look at that all right
  • 00:20:20
    for $100 I think it's a pretty good
  • 00:20:22
    price on our server rack
  • 00:20:26
    yeah ow
  • 00:20:29
    this you'll be proud of UPS yes I am
  • 00:20:33
    proud that you have a
  • 00:20:35
    [Music]
  • 00:20:37
    UPS minus treat treat this with some
  • 00:20:40
    respect dude dude

  • 00:20:48
    yeah yeah yeah did you know he had this
  • 00:20:51
    no I had no idea I'm giving it to Andrew
  • 00:20:53
    I didn't know I had it Elijah you
  • 00:20:55
    actually can't steal stuff from work I
  • 00:20:57
    didn't know I had it what do you mean
  • 00:20:59
    you didn't know you had it I probably
  • 00:21:00
    choose your next words carefully I
  • 00:21:02
    probably had it in my backpack cuz we
  • 00:21:03
    went on a shoot where we needed it and I
  • 00:21:05
    probably took it out of my backpack and
  • 00:21:07
    forgot about
  • 00:21:08
    it
  • 00:21:11
    100% I was thinking about criticizing
  • 00:21:13
    his headphone choice but now I just
  • 00:21:15
    don't have the energy anymore what
  • 00:21:16
    what's wrong with it they're basic yeah
  • 00:21:19
    that's why I bought them do you know
  • 00:21:20
    what I was using before for the money
  • 00:21:22
    you wasted on gamergirl crap you could
  • 00:21:24
    have really nice headphones
  • 00:21:28
    honestly I'd rather use in ear these are
  • 00:21:30
    $12 jbl's I'd rather use them they're
  • 00:21:33
    really uncomfortable have you ever worn
  • 00:21:35
    these for an extended period time do you
  • 00:21:37
    have anything nice to say like why do
  • 00:21:39
    you come into everyone's house and
  • 00:21:40
    immediately criticize everything no I'm
  • 00:21:43
    not criticizing that you're on a budget
  • 00:21:45
    I'm saying that for the money those cost
  • 00:21:48
    they weren't that
  • 00:21:49

  • 00:22:29
    FNAF cam or the Five Nights at Freddy's
  • 00:22:31
    camera uhhuh which is why I got the poe

    cameras nice and have them everywhere
  • 00:22:39

  • 00:22:41
    I'm going to have five well where do
  • 00:22:42

  • 00:22:45
    you need two on a secondary PC one for
  • 00:22:47
    OBS and one for twitch why are you using
  • 00:22:50
    your g502 well because that's my

  • 00:22:56
    set well why don't you sell it then
  • 00:22:58
    because comes with the set so I'm not
  • 00:23:00
    going to break up the set what I
  • 00:23:02
    actually don't think that looks very
  • 00:23:03
    good what what the mouse pad or the
  • 00:23:07
    keyboard I'll let you guys tell them
  • 00:23:10
    what's wrong it's like a colorblind guy
  • 00:23:12
    and did your interior design I like this
  • 00:23:15
    this is looking
  • 00:23:16
    good I just don't know what to do I
  • 00:23:19
    don't understand what goal we're driving
  • 00:23:21
    towards here he keeps saying we're doing
  • 00:23:23
    a great job but I it feels like we're
  • 00:23:25
    doing something
  • 00:23:26
    illegal so now we need to do all the
  • 00:23:28
    streaming stuff do you want to install
  • 00:23:29
    my new camera sure okay grab my camera
  • 00:23:32
    and grab the Elgato wall mount yes sir
  • 00:23:34
    we're going to remove this foam panel we
  • 00:23:36
    are and that's where the camera can go
  • 00:23:38
    wow oh there's there's an extra hole in
  • 00:23:41
    the
  • 00:23:42
    wall who to thunk it while he's finding
  • 00:23:45
    a stud finder we've got the Elgato wall
  • 00:23:47
    mount and a zv E10 which I have no idea
  • 00:23:51
    anything about other than that it's a
  • 00:23:53
    Sony camera and it comes with a lens and
  • 00:23:56
    it's probably pretty good probably
  • 00:23:58
    overkill for streaming and it does 4K I
  • 00:24:01
    got my drywall anchors time to put some
  • 00:24:04
    holes in Elijah's wall for a
  • 00:24:08
    change okay do you have a
  • 00:24:12
    hammer yeah
  • 00:24:16
    okay $88,000 worth of Funko Pops no
  • 00:24:20
    Hammer oh oh I got a hammer let's all
  • 00:24:23
    get hammered there you
  • 00:24:26
    go you use this to hammer something in
  • 00:24:29
    I'll wait okay get
  • 00:24:36
    it yeah
  • 00:24:39
    buddy all
  • 00:24:41
    right Elijah we got this I know we do
  • 00:24:44
    I've been confident the whole time hey I
  • 00:24:46
    get it whole time because this is a lot
  • 00:24:48
    of power in the rack I'm drawing from
  • 00:24:50
    two outlets so I'm bringing a power bar
  • 00:24:52
    all the way from over there and we're
  • 00:24:53
    going to use our
  • 00:24:54
    MCM just mounted up under the desk here
  • 00:24:56
    these are the Key Bar holders hey
  • 00:24:58
    magnetic Cable Management let's go lcg
  • 00:25:00
    store.com baby I only got three of the
  • 00:25:02
    anchors in without destroying them so
  • 00:25:04
    this last screw is just cosmetic
  • 00:25:07
    nice that's pretty
  • 00:25:09
    good oh yeah buddy hey not bad not bad
  • 00:25:16
    uh do you have a power adapter for that
  • 00:25:18
    because I don't want the battery to
  • 00:25:18
    swell up I actually bought a dummy
  • 00:25:20
    battery off of AliExpress nice so then
  • 00:25:23
    this will just go in there yep just to a
  • 00:25:24
    USB which I have a wall wart somewhere
  • 00:25:26
    that will plug in perfect and then there
  • 00:25:28
    you go go I don't ruin my nice battery
  • 00:25:30
    nice I need the HDMI from that camera
  • 00:25:32
    mhm so that's just a mini HDMI to a full
  • 00:25:34
    HDMI that's going to that a media
  • 00:25:35
    capture card M mhm one thing that's
  • 00:25:38
    really important with these micro HDMI
  • 00:25:40
    connections is that you have some kind
  • 00:25:42
    of strain relief on it we don't want the
  • 00:25:44
    weight of this cable just hanging off of
  • 00:25:46
    this connector because it will die it's
  • 00:25:49
    not it's not if it's when um so what I'd
  • 00:25:52
    like to do is zip tie these guys onto
  • 00:25:55
    the mount once we've got it kind of
  • 00:25:57
    locked in and then that way the the
  • 00:25:58
    weight can hang off the zip tie putting
  • 00:26:00
    Elijah's second graphic keyboard on his
  • 00:26:03
    desk by the way there's almost certainly
  • 00:26:04
    going to be stuff in this video that
  • 00:26:06
    will not make the YouTube cut especially
  • 00:26:09
    in light of us having one of our videos
  • 00:26:11
    pulled recently so uh lmg Dogg flat
  • 00:26:14
    plane Riley week is coming up do you
  • 00:26:16
    have flesh Cutters at
  • 00:26:18
    least I really do have my special
  • 00:26:21
    headache though that I get from things
  • 00:26:23
    being too stupid these scans like you
  • 00:26:24
    can play who car well I I want
  • 00:26:30
    you think if I wanted to make a limited
  • 00:26:32
    edition stupid keyboard I couldn't yeah
  • 00:26:34
    but you'd spend four years developing it
  • 00:26:35
    and call it the keyboard that one was
  • 00:26:39
    personal okay I think that's everything
  • 00:26:41
    plugged in other than power what did we
  • 00:26:44
    even upgrade today what do you
  • 00:26:47
    mean added another keyboard and a mouse
  • 00:26:50
    that's it and two monitors a really nice
  • 00:26:53
    camera this oh yeah we did a lot today
  • 00:26:59
    yeah should we try and fire it up what
  • 00:27:01
    suppos OD do you think they
  • 00:27:03
    work yeah exactly tell me if I'm running
  • 00:27:05
    you over you're good you're good okay
  • 00:27:07
    you can probably stop keep
  • 00:27:10
    going
  • 00:27:11
    okay I'm plugged
  • 00:27:14
    in oh there we go hey there we
  • 00:27:18
    go see those fans those are the Le and
  • 00:27:20
    Lee fans they're just screaming I
  • 00:27:22
    probably just need to configure them
  • 00:27:24
    here we go Bud here we go
  • 00:27:26
    Bud we need the pass through from that
  • 00:27:29
    capture card right that's the one yes I
  • 00:27:31
    wonder if I need the a media stuff uh if
  • 00:27:34
    you just want to go and give her a
  • 00:27:36
    little check there bud oh I flicker oh I
  • 00:27:38
    got three okay hey well that's great
  • 00:27:42
    look at that that's great this actually
  • 00:27:44
    kind of a sick config so 7800 x3d best
  • 00:27:48
    gaming chip you got the 7900 XTX that
  • 00:27:51
    you overpaid for because whatever and
  • 00:27:53
    the point is that if you're running
  • 00:27:55
    Windows and Linux going AMD is a great
  • 00:27:58
    option for your GPU then over here
  • 00:28:00
    you've got your old system with the 12
  • 00:28:01
    core ryzen 3000 processor 32 gigs of RAM
  • 00:28:04
    and a really good encoding card so
  • 00:28:06
    that's your streaming machine and you
  • 00:28:09
    know what I got to give you credit other
  • 00:28:11
    than looking like it was you
  • 00:28:13
    know aesthetically designed by a man um
  • 00:28:18
    It's relatively clean yeah it looks sick
  • 00:28:21
    mostly because I cleaned things thanks
  • 00:28:23
    all right when I saw this at Walmart for
  • 00:28:26
    $35 it's a mini fridge that is just in
  • 00:28:29
    the shape of a creeper it holds 12 cans
  • 00:28:31
    of pop I knew I had to have
  • 00:28:34
    it I actually had bought another
  • 00:28:36
    collector's fridge with Call Of Duty
  • 00:28:37
    Black Ops 3 it's the Juggernog one over
  • 00:28:39
    there it also fits 12 cans uh but it
  • 00:28:42
    broke so I needed to replace my fridge I
  • 00:28:44
    guess it is so flipping hot in here and
  • 00:28:47
    this is not going to help but it looks
  • 00:28:48
    really cool well it's a mini fridge I
  • 00:28:50
    can just leave it
  • 00:28:51
    open not how it works oh but in all
  • 00:28:54
    seriousness the setup looks pretty good
  • 00:28:56
    look Mom I'm a streamer
  • 00:28:58
    she's not proud audio is not working I'm
  • 00:29:01
    a streamer I'm a I'm a I'm a streamer
  • 00:29:03
    and I need to reconfigure it to all of
  • 00:29:04
    the audio coming out of this one to make
  • 00:29:06
    sure it's going to this OBS I haven't
  • 00:29:08
    been able to do that yet because we were
  • 00:29:09
    just getting it all working I can do
  • 00:29:11
    that I don't want to spend any more time
  • 00:29:12
    it's already I'm in the OT time now you
  • 00:29:14
    can't get OT for upgrading your own
  • 00:29:17
    house uh yeah I can how does that work
  • 00:29:20
    in the province of British Columbia
  • 00:29:21
    employees are only mandated to work for
  • 00:29:23
    a maximum 8 hours a day
  • 00:29:29
    sup new camera who even needs a
  • 00:29:31
    cameraman anyway when I can have three
  • 00:29:33
    drywall anchors oh yeah you want to go
  • 00:29:35
    look at the lit robot oh so you have the
  • 00:29:37
    hopper I don't have the hopper yeah
  • 00:29:39
    which generation do you have I have
  • 00:29:40
    generation three okay so this is the
  • 00:29:42
    fourth generation oo so there it is okay
  • 00:29:45
    uh you got an error on it yeah they're
  • 00:29:47
    still getting used to it but they have
  • 00:29:49
    used it like basically right away and
  • 00:29:51
    now I have an app so I get notifications
  • 00:29:53
    at work every time they poop nice yeah
  • 00:29:56
    and then the hopper you can kind of see
  • 00:29:57
    it on the the back there yeah so it adds
  • 00:29:59
    more litter every time they use it when
  • 00:30:01
    it detects that it needs it it
  • 00:30:02
    essentially is just like oh it's a
  • 00:30:03
    little lower on weight puts a little bit
  • 00:30:06
    more in that's actually kind of great
  • 00:30:07
    cuz like topping up the litter is the
  • 00:30:09
    only real work you have to do with it
  • 00:30:11
    yeah great
  • 00:30:13
    success does look good it thinks it's
  • 00:30:16
    running at 4K too cuz we haven't quite
  • 00:30:17
    configured a media and it's handling it
  • 00:30:19
    like pretty good Beast yeah that's what
  • 00:30:22
    you get when you get 7800 x3d and a 7900
  • 00:30:25
    XTX saarai Edition
  • 00:30:28
    specifically the the sac Edition does
  • 00:30:30
    not make it faster yeah it does no it
  • 00:30:32
    doesn't it's like RGB it doesn't make
  • 00:30:34
    your computer faster oh I don't know
  • 00:30:35
    about that why else would I get it
  • 00:30:37
    because you're
  • 00:30:39
    gullible thanks AMD we managed to move
  • 00:30:43
    his three machines to a rack which
  • 00:30:46
    honestly ended up looking pretty
  • 00:30:48
    freaking amazing we've got
  • 00:30:52
    these which is wonderful uh more
  • 00:30:55
    monitors actually this is quite the
  • 00:30:56
    battle station and this camera looks so
  • 00:30:59
    much better than the garbage you had
  • 00:31:00
    before and it was fine but this is way
  • 00:31:02
    better this does low light and this
  • 00:31:04
    apartment has you know not great
  • 00:31:06
    lighting so this will be you're going to
  • 00:31:07
    have to get the setting styled in a
  • 00:31:09
    little bit this can do better than that
  • 00:31:10
    oh 100% I'm going to play with it after
  • 00:31:12
    yeah we know you're going to play with
  • 00:31:13
