 Scrapyard Wars is brought to you by the new dbrand Grip. Learn more at the link below. My hometown, there's a better used market where I'm at. There's more population. It's more of a hub of a lot of the tech companies and the PC space. There's just parts everywhere. It's easy to get parts. Micro Center is there as well, which is really good and a pinch if you need a really cheap part or a really cheap CPU or something. But I think ultimately it would have been easier to get people to come to us if we could smooth talk them because everyone has cars where it seems like most people we're interacting with in Vancouver don't have cars. So it was really hard to get people to come to us. But just the used market as a whole being more full of parts that are available would have made this, I think, a little bit easier. So yesterday we wrote a bunch of emails at the end of the day hoping they'd respond. The 660 guy never even let me back. I'm like, dude, call me. Why didn't you show up? We can make this happen. He's still not convinced that's not Linus. But even if it isn't, whatever. The bottom line is it's not a thing. So I got an email from two people. We got two emails. One of you still had the graphics card and we're about to relocate it. So I got to respond to him. That came in last night at 11. And then this Dave Ebers guy, he responded to me like right end of the day yesterday. He's out in Port Moody, but he said he'll come to us. He says I will make it down before lunchtime probably around 1130 and you get the phone number. Oh, that's awesome. Yeah, let's call him right now. At the beginning of today, we still had to sell the graphics card. We still had to hopefully get the SSD from Amazon and we still had to acquire a better than just the Intel stock cooler CPU cooler. Hello? Hey, you emailed me about my GTX 660. Oh hey, how's it going? Good, good. Yeah, we're totally down. Would you like to meet us like at my place or like a coffee shop near here or something like that? Whichever, it doesn't matter to me. If it's easier for you, I guess. Probably a coffee shop, I guess. If it's easier, I don't know. Do you want to meet at Bean Around the World? On Granville. Yeah, okay. On Granville? Okay, I'll figure it out. Cool, and then meet there around 1130, you were thinking? Yeah, I can do that. I can, yeah, no problem. I'll book down there right now. Okay, great. Okay, I'll see you then. See you then. Wait, cheers. Cheers. All right, so we're now 82 bucks. That was easy. 83. See, and that's why it was, we decided yesterday it was going to be a risk. Like, okay, do we order the T2 now or do we wait? Because we could have still ordered up to like for an hour from now still got roughly about there. Yeah. But now, now we have to start finding a big cooler. It's a 23 minute walk. That's closer than where we went yesterday to sell, to pick up the card. See, this is a Dark Rap Crow 3, it's normally 90 bucks. So that guy would bring it to us for 80. So that's a big fat double stack. That might be worth getting. Let me email that guy back right now and see like, okay, can you bring it to us for 80? Yeah. Because that's his asking price. He says, unfortunately, because this was a response to email you wrote him yesterday when you said, Hey, they've been looking for something cool down my CPU. Could you see 70 bring out to us or 60 if we go to you, right? And then his response was, Hello, unfortunately, I'm not going to come out to Venn for less than what I'm asking for. If you're able to come to Syria, I can do 70. Let me know what works for you. So that works a little balled in a bit. So now we can just match his actually him doing us a favor and bring it to us for the same price. Yeah, I'm totally cool with that. So I'm going to write him back and say, you need the 80 in pocket. This guy sounds super legit, but I'm gonna write him back right now and even see if he'll agree to it. Yeah, sure. Yeah, we can always bail. So we might have legit nothing to do tomorrow. Like during the build phase, overclocking, cleaning the system out. Let's hope it doesn't go pop. That would suck. Not blowing stuff up. We can't spend all of our sanity worrying about what the other team has. So we just have to go with what we've got, put it together, what's together, but we need to just present it. And either way, it was a lot of fun. We'd like to win. But again, as time goes on in this competition, you really start to second guess yourself and then use your confidence kind of starts to diminish over time. And I think that's kind of where we are now. So then it seems pretty legit that maybe that wasn't him. I don't think it was him. There's always this scrabble wars conspiracy stuff. It's the uncertainty that really makes you start to wonder. And then you start to believe this stuff in your head like, well, that's why this makes sense, you know, because he would do that to make us lose time. So just an update on the Amazon owner for the SSD. It went out for delivery to the shipment center at 2 31 a.m. and then had its arrival scan at 4 1 a.m. and then was set out to delivery to bring it here at 7 10 a.m. I have all that on the Amazon app. So theoretically, it's going to show up. Don't know exactly what time but until we have that in hand, we can't like feel like we're done. Yeah, I'm pretty sketched out and we're about to blow the rest of our money on the cooler. Oh yeah. No, if this doesn't show up, we lose. Yeah. How are we with emails? There's not a lot. Um, we do have a couple. We do have a couple offers on the monitor. Oh, excellent. But I would sincerely like to make sure that it works before we before we sell it. And we need to do some budgeting here, man, because right now we had a solid plan for how we were going to get maybe unbeatable hardware. But the problem was that we started the day with the hardware that we needed to sell to get the unbeatable hardware possibly not working. Um, OK, if we hitchhike both ways, we have $62. OK, it's what a two hour hitchhike? No, actually, hitchhiking would probably be faster than transit because it's a 45 minute drive, one and a half hour transit run. Yeah. So if we hitchhike both ways, we have $62, which means that we have to pay anything to the driver as a compensation. I don't think that's typical. We could offer them some bread. It's really quite delicious. Only a couple of hairs in it. Yeah. Only a couple. Yeah. I mean, only one that we found. So the backup motherboard, we've got a phone number. His day is wide open. Um, and he would want to meet at a fairly nearby SkyTrain station. So if we have to go get the backup motherboard, assuming that we do actually have $100. Still at 90 degrees. Yep. Yep. Oh, I think. Yeah. OK, we maybe one of the pins on the CPU cooler just misaligned. I think so. It's like the push pins. I think it's going to be a simple fix. We discovered that one of the brackets was broken in half and also that was not allowing the contact between the CPU and CPU cooler to be proper. And our CPU was at like 90 degrees Celsius unless we hold it down. And we're not going to do that up until that point. We thought that getting a new CPU cooler was a nice to have, not a must have. Know what we should do? Let's use our EVGA poster for our hitchhiking sign. I was wondering how we were going to get paper going to Surrey. Like, do we? How do we suggest people that where we need to go? We just type in going to where we need to go. No money. Need hardware. Oh, the guy with the Zion says, oh no, if you can, he could meet at Braidsky train station, but only if we can wait till 530 or six. Oh, yeah. No, it's OK. We'll just have to. We'll just have to do it to go there earlier or to go there or not to go at all. No, no, we have to go earlier. I think we got to do it. I'm also hearing back from someone on the monitor. He says, OK, let me know how the other offers work. Wait a minute. I didn't say there were other offers. Oh, my God. Is it the guys upstairs? I wonder if they sent us multiple offers. That's OK, though, because we don't need any more money. But it would be nice. Right, because we don't have enough money for the motherboard. No, but we also don't necessarily need the motherboard. What's what's our team name? We could go with Dimitri Tech Tips. We could go with Linus Canucks. We could go with. I don't know. Kind of flexible. Let's do Dimitris Dimitris. But we need Linus in there. Yeah, I'm not us. Oh, I see. OK, so Dimitris like this. Yeah, that actually is like kind of a that's kind of a powerful name on let go. We just received two reviews. Oh, my review, Johnny Crowe. Quick response is still waiting for the purchase. Lots of questions at this point. What? Oh, I got three three stars. Three stars on let go. And he's reviewed two of my purchases. What? Maybe I should review them. Yeah. They're like asks a lot of questions. And buyer. No cash money. Here's the monitor powered on. If you want to meet in the next 30 minutes, I'll be around near VGA. Can I get your email so we can text instead of email? Oh, we might be getting rid of the monitor right now. Sweet. And where did you find the cable for it? Oh, I just borrowed one off of. Oh, yeah. Your stuff's not charging next. I want the Shadow Rock. The Shadow Rock has a lot more cooling potential, I think. Yes. Like quite worried. If we if we're if push comes to shove, we can go two sticks to get everything running or one stick to get everything running. And then at the workshop, just dremel off the parts that stick up on them. But if it's heat pipes, we can totally. No, on the ramp. Oh, yeah, we could do that because they're just fired. Yeah, yeah, we could do that. You can just bend it off. Yeah, I'm not really like second guessing our build. I'm just trying to figure out like the two 90s is the thing that can be done. I think that's the only thing that could be us. Or three to 90s. So all of our stuff is going to fit on our SSD once it shows up. We're not worried about storage space anymore, which is good. It's this guy said he would come to us. Where can we meet? So it sounds to me like he has a car, right? If you didn't have a car, you would like, hey, can you meet at the station? Yeah, probably. He might end up being like, oh, can we meet close to the station? But it sounds like he has a car. I'm also possibly not expecting to hear from him until around three o'clock because if he's like, I'm not free till three, maybe he just messaged me at work, which I think we're safe to wait for because we could still make it to NCIX and back in that amount of time. So only 26 minute walk. It's not a big deal. So we can wait till. So we have a backup. If that drive for some, for some reason gets lost or doesn't show up, I'm all for just like leaving that one and not saying a thing and let him find out when he watches. I think really dead serious. If it were like single teams, that's exactly what I would do. Linus really badly wants to run ashes on a very high preset, which is something that we just like don't do because we still think he has SLI. Yeah, probably because he's running SLI and ATI not going that way. That's the waterfront. We don't want that. It's going this way. Yeah. Five fifty. We start considering other options. Plus to NCIX. They close at what? Six. Probably about then. Yeah. We have enough time to get there. Barely. So all we got to do is get in the door, right? We might end up being late though. Yeah. But I mean, as long as we get in the door there, right, they close at six at like five fifty five. We need to. Then we'd be late back. Yeah. We still. I said a bunch of times we got to figure out what the penalty is if we're late back today. We can talk to Ed. Basically a scrap system that's like the best we can get for like nothing. So that's why we were like we want to get. What's up man? So you recognize us? Yeah. We got to balance like immediately though. Yeah. We got to we got to get on the bus now. So thanks a lot man. Appreciate it. It says 26 minutes on the bus from here. Yeah. So Amazon delivery driver just called me and was like, hey, I'm at your address. It says the wrong address. By the way, I verified it in the app. It's right. And like the owner of this house doesn't know who you are. And then the owner grabs the phone and it's like, hey, yeah, I'm from this address. So I check my phone just to make sure that I type. I said the wrong one. Check the Amazon app. They're saying the wrong thing. He just tried to give the S.S.D. to someone that wasn't us. Luckily, the guy that you tried to give it to, apparently awesome dude, told him that it wasn't the right place. Now the Amazon driver is apparently driving to where we are trying to go right now. So hopefully the S.S.D. will be here on time. Hello. If you're facing the house, you should see steps that go down. And then there's like, if you look to the right, there's like a swinging bench that's just inside the property. It's the one on the left. It's the one on the left. It is the house on the left. It is the unit on the left. Sorry. No, do not take it back with you. It's the house on the bottom floor. I'm not entirely sure what to tell you. It's actually not that complicated. If you're facing the houses, if you look to your left, it is the one furthest to the left, right? Yeah. It's a gray fence. There's a gray fence. There's a step or two that goes down. And then once you look to your right, there's two tiny little like kid sized chairs and then a wooden bench. Okay. Awesome. If you leave it under the wooden bench, that would be great. The address, I guess, got auto corrected by Amazon. So it actually was like slightly down the street instead of right actually here. So they ended up bringing it to the wrong house. And then luckily, oh my goodness, luckily the guy that was there was like, my name isn't Luke. You brought this to the wrong house. So it's actually working out. Everything's going to come together in the last like half an hour. It's just on there. I told him to put it under it, but like at least it's there. Okay. What? So what time is it? 540 at 540. We got our last part. So we made it back with 20 minutes to spare. We got our Dark Rock Pro 3, which funnily enough, when Linus and Demetri were walking in, I saw that they were also carrying a black Be Quiet box about this size. So it would be pretty funny if we both at the very last minute on the very essentially last day got the same cooler. Although I don't know how they got theirs because if they have the same one, because we only saw one listing for it. So I wonder if they bought it new. That would be really interesting because I think this would be the first time that anyone bought anything new from Scrap Your Words. Also, our SSD came in. There it is. 120 gigabytes of SSD goodness. So we're good to go. That's all of our parts. Tomorrow we need to install the cooler, install the SSD, migrate all the files that are currently on our SSD over to this SSD. And then it's just benchmarking time. Let's go. It is illegal to hitchhike here. Okay, then we're screwed. We're a six hour hike. Oh my god, it's so far. We have to transfer three times. And is this all buses? Bus train? No. And then bus, two buses and one train. We might get away with one fare then. So we tell the bus we're getting on the train, we pay for the train, then we train, then bus, bus, back onto the train. And hopefully we're good. Yeah. As long as we're back on the same route to go back in the same platform. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Everything's getting real. So I'm asking the six core guy if he can bring it to Coquitlam center, which would probably save us a fair back. The girl with the combo for the CPU motherboard and the RAM is trying to negotiate on price, but I'm holding firm. But what that would mean is that we could sell that whole combo for $155, which even after we go buy our motherboard again would give us $156 for a cooler. So I messaged a guy in Richmond asking how much to deliver a Corsair H80. So we can find basically let's find every cooler we can and see if we can pay someone 10 or 20 bucks to deliver. Yeah. He just confirmed. He can do it. He can deliver. Oh, the Xeon. He's bringing. Yeah. The guy, Xeon guy is bringing it to the bus depot. We are almost there. We are like two stops. See? Yeah. Oh, this is exciting. Okay. Okay. So we got to pay him $154.50. Let's get that ready. Okay. Sorry. Hit me. Hit me before agreeing to sell our nine 60 and the motherboard and the RAM combo. Let's verify that the Xeon and the RAM work. Yes. On that motherboard. And if they do work on that motherboard, should we still do the swap? The P60 is a better board and works with a high bandwidth bridge. I see. Okay. But we should go get the P60 deluxe right from here. Okay. Before we even go back. We have enough money? We do as long as we sell that stuff away. Oh crap. No, I'm going to ask that guy if he can deliver. Okay. They're negotiating. They want 150 for the whole lot. What is that? That's $5 off. Okay. I can't meet until late this afternoon though. Okay. So CPU motherboard, RAM combo guy or gal wants to meet at 5 30. So that's perfect because by then we'll be done. At some point Linus and Dimitri managed to get the motherboard seller to drop his price 50 bucks down to an even 100. Although it looks like even that might be just out of their price range. Is it because we're paying this guy the delivery fee? Yeah. Did we already verify that we have going to pay him? Wait, wait, wait, hold on. There's oh no, it's a quarter. Um, shoot. Hello. Here's a CPU. Oh, excellent. Here's a RAM. Okay. Look at this. Xeon W3670. Yup. All right. Thank you. And we got the, uh, ha ha. No, just kidding. Okay. You got money, right? Looks fine. I'm sure it's fine. He seems like a trustworthy gentleman. All right. So I have 150. I recognize your voice. Oh, and then this is for your, are you sure? Yeah, I'm sure. You sure? Oh, okay. Thank you so much. Take care. Okay. So he did not take the additional 475, which means we're good with money. We got exactly a hundred dollars, but I already messaged the guy asking if he can take. Okay. Well, maybe write him back. I'm just going to be like, yeah, I found five bucks on the side of the road. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Six core Xeon guy kind of saved our butts. Uh, he didn't end up charging us to come and meet us at the SkyTrain station, which was really nice. 19. Oh my God. We're like a dollar short. We're less than a dollar short. We're like, we're like 20, 30 cents short. Okay. Instead we had $99 and 70 cents, like 75 cents. So I didn't feel too bad about that. Yeah, we're, I think we're good. If I messaged him back, I'm like, look, we've got $99 and 70 cents. He should be okay with that. I have $99 and 70 cents and 30 cents. Ain't one. I'm super stressed out on our way to meet the hundred dollar motherboard guy though, because we couldn't get in touch with them. Stupid me. I didn't realize I actually had a phone number after all, but then I called the number and it was like a landline. And I was like, who uses a landline? Hi, I was calling about that motherboard and you said you were going to try and get in touch with them. Yeah. I just talked to Mike. He's just on his way here to pick it up and then meet you at the SkyTrain. Oh, well that's fantastic. Um, great. Thank you. Um, well we're at what station are you at? We're at Brentwood town center now. And so we just need to transfer. So we'll be there when we get there. The NCIX Broadway location is walking distance from my aunt's house and it's actually, no, we won't have any money to buy it on the way back. It's, it's so our motherboard CPU ramp up first. So what we would have to do basically is arrange with that lady. Yeah. Or should we get the motherboard, go home and test it first and then agree to the sale and then agree to the sale. Yeah. I mean, technically we've already agreed to the sale. So it's deciding whether to back out of the sale. Right. So we're okay with time. Yeah. Well our bus transfers are still good for 40 minutes. It's so tense. I knew that Linus would be, you know, luring me into the water situation by saying, we will get you water. But I was smarter than that. I brought my own water for the whole day, but I felt bad because Linus didn't have any. Okay. So we're meeting at the TNT. Uh, we heard from him while we were on the train. I was like, yeah, did you get my message about the $99 70 cents? He's like, no, I didn't, but it's cool. Okay. Don't worry about it. So that's great. Also get this. This is only a 15 minute detour. Even if our transfers expire. So in 25 minutes, even if we don't catch a bus closer to my aunt's place, we are still only 15 minutes out if we walk compared to if we had just bus back to her place. So things are going really well right now. Best time to know the city is when you actually get the public transport. You explore via Google maps, walking, because otherwise we're going to have to walk back to my aunt's place. So yeah, enjoy. So we're meeting him right in front of the TNT here. And he's coming on an electric scooter. He said he was about six minutes away about five minutes ago. So any moment now, we get into a shadow. Yeah. Good call. We always hide in the shadows. Oh, hi. Yes. All right. Cool. Oh, okay. Perfect. Wow. That is quite the packaging you got there. Hi there. Oh, I love your hair. That's nothing. I get comments all the time on the dick butt on the back of my car. Okay. So theoretically, we can bus back and it'll save us 20 minutes. Excellent. Do you want to bus or do you want to walk? Let's bus. Okay. So are we on the street where we can take the bus? Okay, here we got to walk. We got to walk down Abbott. Okay. Abbott right here. Yeah. So this is this way. We got to go. Wait. So the TNT is supposed to be on our left. So we need to go this way. You need to go up. Yeah, that way. So motherboard combo will meet us at NCIX, but can't get there till 530 or maybe a little bit after. It's a 25 minute walk back to the house. Okay. So here we go. I said, look, if you're a little bit late, to be 100% honest, the issue is that I don't have the money to buy the thing until after we meet you. So if you can give me and my friend a ride to NCIX, then it doesn't matter if you're a few minutes late. Oh, that's perfect. What did they say? Uh, it looks like that's good to go. Amazing. What's up? Am I just running beside the car? No, you'll get to drive your thing. Oh, okay. So we get to NCIX store and we wait for him. This was at 530. So timing was very close. We're freaking out a little bit. Saw Linus on the poster at the NCIX store. So that was a little bit, you know, he still had a little bit of messy hair and the screwdriver. But then the guy finally shows up. We get our money, run to the store to buy the CPU cooler, which was already prepared. And we go on our way. That was the last piece of the puzzle for the build. Very happy how it turned out. So DeepRand is calling their new case, the grip for a reason. Well, a couple of reasons. Number one, sitting on a plane or prop up your phone, watch a video, put it on your water bottle. Good idea. Oh, bad idea. With a grip case. Good idea. Reason number two, say you leave your phone on the hood of your car or something by accident, you're getting in, you don't want it to slide off while you're driving, right? It's the grippiest case freaking ever. Reason number three, actually nothing to do with the grip part of it at all. It just has full phone protection so you can like, scratch it around on stuff and do this and you can like drop it and whatever. You guys have been seeing it in Scrapyard Wars for three weeks. You've been asking for it and now it's finally here. Go buy a DeepRand grip today at the link in the video description. Heading into the final day, Luke and Jay aren't feeling too confident. But this is Scrapyard Wars and it ain't over till it's over. Don't say the quote wrong. Don't say the quote wrong. What? You know what the quote is? No, I am your father. Good job. Everyone just goes I am your father but he's correcting him. Yeah, don't go that way. Are the fins where we talked that way? Yeah. So take the ram it. Hey Linus, where's the Dremel? Is it like probably upstairs? Okay. So what you can probably do right now is leave one fan off, put two of these in and just keep going and then I'll work on modding these. What's the least unsafe way to do this? Did that actually hit you? You know that sting. Luke hurt himself. He's going to file a claim. I don't think I'm going to bleed. Yeah, no, it's already bruising pretty intensely though. It's gone. It broke. The stem of it broke. Me neither. So the stem of it came right off. I think we were sabotaged. It fired out and hit me in the shoulder. Dude, that looks so much nicer than it even needs to. That's awesome. Now at this point, they're both supposed to be benchmarking but it seems like both teams still have some finishing touches to put on. But I would still always recommend even an AIO just because of the ease of installation. Oh yeah, well that's the biggest thing with AIOs in my opinion. Remember we bought the Be Quiet cooler on your recommendation. It's going to perform very well. I told you that the mounting mechanism was shite. But you wanted the dual tower. Yeah. So which way do we go? Maybe you're just a big Be Quiet fan boy. I am. Such a pain in the butt. I just hate having so much memory. I can't get at the 8-pin with this stupid ginormous cooler in here. It's like why are water coolers popular when they don't perform better? This is why. The cable bone's connected to the header bone. The header bone's connected to the motherboard bone. The motherboard bone's connected to the case bone. The case bone's connected to the table bone. The table bone's connected to the floor bone. I think this is probably the first Scrapyard Wars where I regret nothing. So Linus, I have a gift for you. You have a gift. That is going to be used to either for you to keep for yourself or used as an accessory for this case. Oh, that is beautiful. And you know what? I don't think it counts as being part of the system if we put it next to the system. Yes. And. Right? This is so great. Look at this. Look at this. Look how cute it is. It's not turning. So maybe now we know why it was so tight. OK, it's good. That cable right here. That's my finger. Are you turning it off? It's off. It's shutting down. There it's off. I could start playing with the overclock down there on the CPU. If you want to, but I need the system drive so you wouldn't be able to test it. No, but I can at least start checking where I can boot. Sure. Do you want me to do that? Save some time? Yeah. So right now I'm hoping that Paragon Disk Image Software works on Windows 8 because my computer is still Windows 8. Paragon Disk Image Software, which is what we're planning to move all of this stuff from our test drive to our actual drive, doesn't work on Windows 10. So we're going to see if I can mirror everything over using Windows 8 as the host drive. Do you just need the benchmarks? Yeah. We have a drive that works. It's just not our drive. So if I can verify that our SSD works, then they might be cool with us just using the other one because it's not actually impactful on performance. But I want to like, I haven't even verified that it works yet. And so like if I haven't verified that it works, they'll be like, what the **** because that's fair. If they're higher than 85% of our score, I'll be pretty surprised. Well, we've got some really important stuff to do while this is running. Where do you want to put this? You choose it. You choose the place of honor. Here. Let's see. Well, normally I'll man the glue gun. It would go like here, but that's not really visible, right? Yeah. Do you want it kind of like in the front? We need like place of honor. Yeah. Or like cover up. And it might get stuck in here though. It's kind of a perfectly good, you know, case. Yeah. What if it was the dial? It was the dial for, yeah, if you want an extra like... And then you turn it. That's perfect. Do you like that? Yes. Let's do it. That means that we're ruining 920. I think it's okay. Yeah. Okay. And this is 100%? Yeah. Okay. So we got to position it square. Yeah. So it's perfect. I like it. That's how you know it's the correct. Let it cool a little bit. Uh oh. What? What is that? Okay. I'm going to just position this guy here for now. We'll just, we'll step it back a little bit and we'll be glad that we ran these benchmarks before we had to submit to judging. Okay. There it is. It works fine. Yep. It works great. Okay. So it might be cool with us just using it. In the interest of saving time. Yeah, sure. Well, we can, we can bend the rules. I would consider that bending as long as their SSD actually works and could hold all the stuff if it came to that. Okay. I think after this coin and after this thing finishes, we can... All right. So there's a little, there's a little present for the judges, you know? Oh, it gets stuck. Did we... Oh crap. No, it ate our... No way. This is like an arcade machine. Oh, I see it. It ate it. Do you have the... Yeah. I can see it right there. Guys, we need the pliers back. Oh my God. Are they magnetic? I don't remember if two of these are magnetic. Oh shoot. Oh wait, wait. I fix it. No, we're good. We're good. Oh, no, I don't need them. Thanks, Ed. Luke, quit panicking. No, no, no, I'm panicking. At all? It's not bad. I got it. I got it. But I feel like I'm going to leave the voltage higher and go to 4.5 for... Right? So... Let's do it. It's right there. Where's the voltage? Pretty much. Okay. Oh crap. It does melt it a little. What? Did that just... What? What? What? What? What? What? You know what? I'm kind of getting cold feet on the CPU. Okay. Oh my God, these... Okay. Let's just... I'm just going to dial it back a couple notches. Just... The last thing I want is for us to not run our benchmarks. Okay. Yeah. If we don't... If we don't complete, yeah, I think we have to go back to stock. Right. Okay. So it's better... Which would be really bad actually for our config. There we go. Now that is a control knob. We are really close. Should we run... Yeah. We're ready to test a benchmark. You mean test a benchmark? I mean... You're just going to have to test it when the after-games for it. Are they ready? Yeah. Are they ready? Ed's inserting drama. Go ahead guys. Yeah. Hit it. Just double check our options here. It sounds like there ain't a problem. It would really suck. It would suck for us to be like, okay, we're done. When they let us use that thing. I know. I don't really want to do that. Because... Yeah. I think we'll convince you about it then though. Okay. How much longer do you guys think you need? Because we're like... I don't want to say the magic word to trigger Ed. We are in a state at which we could do things. But you guys were bros about the drive things. We don't want to f*** you over. We could sit down for a little while. We are a state at which we don't need to touch the computer for any major significant reason. Okay, cool. That sounds like you're ready to... I don't know where to start with R. No. I'm still your lunch. We're good. Okay, we're good. We're ready. We are ready for them to meet Dimitris, the god of gaming. What? Alright, come on. Wow, this is rather anticlimactic. Do better next time A-Prime. What the hell is that? Now it's time to see which one of these is the more powerful build. Dimitris or the green machine? Is that our Dark Rock Pro 3 box? It is not. We went and got that at the exact same time you guys got yours and we didn't know it. We got back like 10 minutes earlier getting the exact same item. And we're really curious as to where you got yours because this was the only one that we found online. What do you mean the only one? This was the only Dark Rock Pro 3 on the Craigslist. Oh, well we bought ours out of store. I thought so. See, I called that actually. We got enough money so we could buy a brand new. Is that one of your phones? We have so much sponsor money from putting our dbrand phone. Oh yeah, look around the back. Oh, you got some fiber. Oh, he's putting his dbrand. I can counter this. I can sell out harder than you. Brandon, where's your big things? Your big flag things that are dbrand's favorite. Hold on. Here's our dbrand MacBook and Alienware. And here's my personal phone which also has dbrand. Dimitris, Dimitris, where's your MacBook? I don't have anything that's dbrand. Where's your personal MacBook? Who can sell out harder? Yeah, that's right. Oh yeah, all that dbrand. Your personal phone is skinned too, isn't it? Yeah! Yeah, well I have like whole dbrand. Beat this. CPU benchmarks, we've got Cinebench and Adobe Media Encoder. I bet our system is pretty different from what you guys think it is. Yep. I bet your system is super slow. Well, that's not really a bet when you're making an observation. Actually, it's not that far off, is it? We started it when you did. I didn't realize he started it when he did. I don't think it's... This is a slow pass here though, down this right hand side. Oh, what happened there? Okay, we're done. What do you guys got? 933. 912. Oh! Wow. So, for the camera, the way the scoring works though is that by being 20 points behind, that's only 2%. So effectively, we get 10 marks, they get 9.8. This is really close. Okay. Game still open for you guys, yeah? Oh yeah. Okay. Okay, three, two, one, go! Okay, this time we started at the same time, so it should be a fairer fight. We're already ahead. It's crazy. Oh, okay. What's your remaining time? Control L. 303. 236. Oh! And I think our bar is ahead of theirs too. It's kind of hard to tell, to be fair. Yeah, I think we're like a seam behind. Holy crap, no, we're quite a bit behind. They're like here. Oh! Oh no! What are the rules on that? Is it three crashes? I think you have to... Okay. I think you have to just kind of... That's right. That's what we were testing. It's one thing we didn't fight. All right. 20 seconds. How long? 4 minutes 43 seconds. 4 minutes 43. We're at 517. Yeah, okay. Okay. So after the CPU benchmarks, the green beast is ahead by 3%. Three, two, one, go! I think this is where we're going to lose our 3%. RIP. Good game. GG. I certainly hope so. Yours is so slow at loading. Well, you know what? It isn't how you load the game. It's how you play the game. Get a more proper processor. You know, Mr. Proper Processor, we won one of the CPU benchmarks. Straight up. Also, you were telling me about how this is always choppy because of the... I didn't say choppy. I just said that part of the test. You said it always does that. I mean, it clearly doesn't always do that. Because 35 FPS was so fast. I mean, if we want that cinematic look. You know what though? The FPS... Luke. Oh really? Does it still work? The FPS is not as high as I expected it to be though. It's pretty monstrously high and it's higher there. So I don't know what you're talking about, man. It could have throttled. Oh yeah, that dropped like 600 points. You guys can run it again if you want. I'm known to be, to my own detriment, pretty lenient with the other team. If they need more time. Do you like our symbolic... Wait, you brought that. That's not actually part of our system, but our system has another really crazy trick. Because I bet you haven't even seen it so far. Look, whoa, there it is. Whoa, there's the system. Where'd it go? Bam! I was wrong about your platform. I wonder if I was right about your platform before you changed it. But I was wrong about your platform. That's closer to what we got before. 5466. You guys are probably around 6,000. Well, why don't we find out? Whoa! Oh damn! Okay, so Fire Strike score, we got 7,929 and the Green Beast pulled in 5,462. So that puts us at 4.8 and then at 4.4. So we went from being 3% behind to just under 10% ahead. 3, 2, 1, hit it! I never run Fire Strike, so I legitimately actually don't know what they're running. Oh, yeah, okay. That makes a little bit of sense. Because it should absolutely be pretty obvious. But if you don't run Fire Strike, that makes sense. The system didn't lock, the game just stopped going. Oh, is the system working? Yeah, we have the cursor. Control, delete. Okay, well I'll let you guys figure out your stuff there, but I think the audience would know which machine they'd want to be using by this point in time. Everything's just smooth here. I know, everything's just going exactly according to plan. You know what? Maybe theirs is going according to plan too. Maybe our plan was just to have everything run perfectly and their plan was to kind of, you know, dick around. We should call them Team Green Machine Dick Around Mobile. So part way through the Ashes of Singularity benchmark, Ashes didn't even technically freeze though because the cursor came up. Yeah. So it just like stopped the benchmark. It was like a soft lock. And then I went to go kill it with Control, Delete and it didn't say that it was hanging. Yeah. You know what? We do have a UPS. Shut it down again. Let's just make sure. Maybe you guys are just kind of borderline. I'm confident that everything's going great the whole time, both of us. That's because Dimitri's a yes man. Well, if, if things were going the way that they were going for us, you'd have been a yes man too. I don't know. Why'd you make a last minute switch on your whole system? It was not a last minute switch. Yeah. It was a planned switch last minute. I like this guy. That is some, that is some world-class spin doctoring right there. All right guys. Average frame rate all batches 50.0. What? Do we want to verify settings? Are you sure you did it right? It's nothing worth, it's nothing that we are exploiting. Let's just say the developers are exploiting. There's a specific reason why a lot of people use Ashes when testing multiple GPUs that are on a certain team. Okay. Well, why don't we move on to Rise of the Tomb Raider? So the way it's going right now, green beast is about 5% ahead at 6.8 versus 6.5. Yeah, and one of them is heavily leaning the other way. We'll still lose, but that's fun. It makes it closer. It's hard to, there's just a lot of stuttering on both sides anyway. When it looks over that mountain, it likes to do that even with really good systems. When you're inside the cave, let's see what happens. I saw a bunch of stuttering right there, but then I was looking at the wrong screen. We had a bunch of wobbling too. Yeah. Okay. Oh, I saw, they're stuttering on my side. Ours? Yeah. What do you think Linus? What's your opinion? You're more in the middle than anyone. I think ours is running smoother, but I don't think it's by as much as I'd like. Our benchmark is going to end significantly sooner. Overall, it's only 53.4. 61.61. That's a significant amount. So I think they're going to be ahead by like 5% again. Hold on. It hasn't updated yet. So we got 61.61 and they got 53.4, which puts us at a dead heat. Oh, what the hell? 8.2 to 8.2. Wait a second. Hold on. No, we've got a problem with the formula. Oh no. You copied it? I copied the formula. Wait a second. Wait a second. Okay. Okay. There was a formula error. So we're actually ahead, but only by what? Like 2%? 7.7 to 7.6 going into the last benchmark. I stand by what I said. We did better than I thought we would. And there are, there are a lot of benefits to the way we did our system as to why we did them. You guys know to start from the benchmark executable thing? Yeah, you have to go into the, oh, they already got it on. Okay. Cause this is the only one left, right? Yeah. Oh, it's in that stupid folder right now. Scene one. Okay. Here we go. Hit it. You might as well hit it earlier, Demetri. It's going to start way later. Oh no. Yeah. They're faster. I was reading it wrong. Whoa. They're fluctuating a lot. Yeah, I know that. What's up with your system, bro? Why is it running so bad right now? I want to plug into the UPS. Hold on. Man, winning would be weird. I did not expect that. There's one setting that we forgot to check off. That hashes. Might've made a difference. This was disabled. No, it doesn't matter for DirectX 11. Oh yeah. So it doesn't matter. All right. Let's see it. Yeah. Look at there. So how fast is it? That's the same as last time. Yep. 8.98 to 9.22. Whoa. What? Bring it in. We were so worried from day two forward. 100%. Okay. Good job, guys. Good team. Well played. Sorry, Demetri. All right. With a score of 9.2 to 9, effectively rounding, here you are. Congratulations. You walked a long way to end where you started, but with a winning computer. That looks just like me. And Demetri, second. Good effort. At least your pedometer is happy. So again, congratulations. Congratulations. What? Well played. Oh, sorry. Well, I already shook your hand once. I was just doing the trophies. You shook his hand once too. All right. So that's it. Demetri, I let you down. I'm sorry, bro. You have not let me down. It was great. I think we had a good system. Yeah. Well, at least you got to be on the show, Linus. Yeah. And congratulations, you guys. Once more, thanks for coming out and thanks for watching Scrapyard Wars. Basically, they got rekt. Thanks for watching Scrapyard Wars. He can retire now. He's lost a lot. Thanks to D-Brand for sponsoring Scrapyard Wars. That's right. That's right. Where's my phone? D-Brand grip. Go buy one. That might have been a little hard. This is a regular phone. This is a grip phone. This is for comedic effect.
