 It's time for ROG rig reboot so many challengers approached Only three were successful and this is one of them Charlie say hi hi hi internet Hi, mom. Hi dad. No. No your dad's over there. So Charlie hails to us from where you're from man, Florida Oh, oh wow, so you were right in the heart of it Yeah, so you have power to go plug this into right? Well, we have powers not Wi-Fi yet Wow. All right Well, that's pretty lucky man. Well, everybody, you know safe and cool. Yes rock on glad to hear that. Okay So today we're gonna be building a rockin machine. Have you ever built a computer before? No, no, this is your first time Yeah, well today that changes Welcome to the party. Let's get started The Asus ROG Strix 1080 Ti comes with a Asus GPU tweak 2 which allows you to monitor performance and Helps you stream it also features their game booster as well as a free one-year premium license of X split game caster Learn more at the link in the video description So what do you want to start with? Motherboard good choice. So even though you've never built a computer before have you watched a build guide? Yeah, I've watched a lot of them a lot of them all Linus tech tips guides, right? No Have you at least watched a Linus tech tips guide? Yeah, you're gonna make a very me. Oh wow So that's the kind of video we're making All right shots fired shots hit the target Let's all just wipe up our tears and continue Holy crap course there Yeah Your system at home you were the one with the laptop, right? Yeah, the super ball and laptop That's great for gaming. No, no not so much. Hey, my computer is an HP Laptop, it's a my little laptop and then right next to it. I got my little $25 amount I don't actually know what brand my mouse is. I kind of got it because it wasn't really expensive pretty much Not really. I had like a Pentium core with HD Intel integrated graphics And tell me something HD Intel graphics. How high definition are they? 720p is good. Yeah, that's what they'd like you to think Okay, have you ever installed a CPU before? No, all right, okay, so here not yet Okay, you can touch it. No, just kidding. Okay, you can touch it. No, all right So you want to line that up real carefully? There's no force required. So all you gotta do There you go. How was it? So I push down lower the arm down you have officially installed a CPU Yeah Okay, have you done RAM before I mean I took Graham out of like a computer Fantastic. All right, let's do it Why am I even here? Why am I even here? Because I don't know everything. I memorized how to do the motherboard and that's pretty much where it is So tell me then Charlie, what was your plan? if somebody ever did give you a computer's worth of parts you were just gonna assemble the motherboard and kind of I Just go on YouTube and watch a guide and build it with that. You've got all the answer kids today, man So tell me something Charlie. What's gonna be the first thing you do when this system arrives at home? I'm gonna mess with the RGB and then I'm gonna go to the Steam store And buy games really good graphics so that I can see those This one's really good end up using You need that? For the sake of thoroughness We could pull the board out. We could relocate this standoff and we could put it there. Nah, feels like too much work Wait stop we missed something really important. Oh, no, you didn't do the satisfying plastic peel off the RAM Enjoy this you only get to do it once. Oh, yes. Look how shiny it is now we also have to figure out where our hard drive is gonna go because This hard drive cage. Didn't you say it was gonna go up here? I did say that but Let me tell you something about adults Charlie Sometimes well, they don't lie But they say things without having really thought them through. Are kids your age allowed to use knives? Yeah. Okay I don't know. Mine are like five and three so Understandable All right now leave these fans because I have something better RGB fans It's gonna be lit That's what the kids say, right? Yeah When that RGB lighting is giving you an extra 15 frames per second, you'll thank me Tell you man. It is so easy to build a computer these days And like have it look awesome compared to a thousand years ago I can imagine it was hard a thousand years ago to build a computer You sure your name is Charlie? Yeah, you sure it's not Alec? Oh, I'm gonna confess something to you Charlie You messed up? I know So how come you picked an AMD build? Because I like your raisin better plus it feels like They actually care about prices. Even when he's not paying for it He's going for the the perception of who's treating the customer more fairly So you said this machine is for gaming at school So surely 480 gigs on your boot drive is not enough for the library you want. Okay. Well, that's fine We've got you covered two terabyte drive Then you got to make a big decision here possibly the most important decision of the entire build Do you want to put it on the bottom or the top? Is there really difference? No Hey, those two on either side then we need that SATA data cable that we set aside Much much earlier and then misplaced And then found go for it open it up Enjoy it savor it So I ripped it There goes all the good vibes I ripped it again. See I used to wonder why people watch unboxing videos. Then I watched an amateur open a box I totally get it now. Oh There's cool on top. Yeah, it's a cool logo. This isn't just any yo This is a Strix 1080 TI Wow There it is. That's what's gonna run all your Minecrafts and There are Neopets Believe it or not. It works as cool as it looks if you were to run Cheapo games like Minecraft on it. Believe it or not. These fans These fans wouldn't even have to spin Wow because the heat sink on it is so big this thing has like The entire thing basically covered in aluminum fins Okay now The most important part of installing the graphics card not dropping it Okay, okay the next most important. Oh Yes, it's got a typo on it I think I really look at this GTX 1080 TI Gaming it's kind of embarrassing. It's not gaming. It's like it's like gaming yell So line up your ports at the back Okay, you can tell if these are yep, you're good did it I installed a graphics card sure did and you started with the best graphics card Now this is cool your graphics card actually includes an RGB lighting header So we can hook one of our RGB lighting strips that we have from cable mod up to it Okay, go ahead cover your eyes Okay, just follow follow the sound of my voice Okay, okay. This is the time for the big reveal. Don't trip over that big block in front of your foot All right. No, I'm just kidding. There's no block because I moved it Turn to the right and experience 180 Hertz gaming so that is What high refresh rate with G sync looks like so however many frames your GPU spits out? That's exactly how many frames get displayed here, so you don't see any tearing you don't see any lag So you don't even have to give kids these days a game They'll just play move the window around if you throw a high enough refresh rate monitor at them now Let me show you something else. That's really cool. Come around this side That's nice RGB. Yeah, that's a nice RGB and and We'll get the utility loaded up, but check this out see this RGB logo here and the logo on the back of the graphics card It's synchronized with the RGB strip across the top here. I got one other cool thing for you, too Listen to it That's quite that's drinks for you. Well family won't get annoyed At all well I'm sure they'll find reasons to get annoyed because you're always gonna be on the computer or bugging them to go on the computer The day was awesome. Actually. It was really cool The bill was my favorite part and it was also fun at the end to test the computer and stuff I was definitely not expecting a 1080i So while Charlie plays around with the RGB settings on the video card, which also controls the RGB strip along the top I guess I'll bid you guys farewell.
