  • Where can i buy your "case'' thingy?

  • This is very cool

  • linus your stand pc thing is a really good idea, it looks better, think it would get less overheated and cases are ridiculous expensive now, whats it called please? anyone?:(

  • @J0n3eR4M a hspc top deck tech station.

  • @J0n3eR4M its not a case its a testing station for parts, you should never use it for your everyday pc

  • Im getting this mobo with a 2600k and 580 :D

  • My friend has this motherboard, with the help of my assistance!

  • I'm thinking of getting a 32gb SSD for a boot drive. Corsair Extreme Series. Somebody gave me a 40$ eBay card an I can get a refurb one for that so I probably will. Anybody think this will not work? All I want to do is put windows and startup on it, everything else goes onto my 640gb caviar black.

  • @ilovetrains12 The 32gb SSD is going to get full pretty fast because even if you only will put the OS and the drivers on it the other programs you will install on the 640gb drive will save some things on your SSD even if you don't want them to and all the temporal files will be on the SSD. You should buy a bigger SSD or if you have a Z68 motherboard you could use the 40 GB SSD as a cache to your hard drive.

  • @ilovetrains12 Yeah, manar is right. For some strange reason, even if you only install your OS on it, a lot of files will be put on it. I don't know why Microsoft did this. Also, just a pro tip: Unplug the drive that isn't going to have the OS on it when your doing installation. Windows will put files it needs on the second drive for some reason.

  • the cache system is pretty nifty

  • Linus does the gigabyte mobo have a uefi bios?

  • @MiniExtreme yeah it does...says right on the box there.

  • Linus, what is you job title? i would love to have that same kind of job when i get a few years older!

  • I wanna know how did Linus get the he is doing, I love building computers and I would like to work in that sorta field, what is the job called/ the name of the field of work?

  • @tonezzonez Computer Technician

  • @PostalDude245

    what sort of university degree would you reckon i would need to go into this? :)

  • @saqibd123new hmm not sure. Computer Science maybe. ;)

  • @PostalDude245

    my brother did computer science but thats more software based and like programming

    man if i could end up in a job like that, even though im completely camera shy, if i got an opportunity i would so do it, no matter how embarassed id be on youtube

  • @tonezzonez He is an IT consultant and pretty cool guy and eh buld computer and doesn't afraid of anything

  • why 40gb is not enough for boot?

  • @aSmallSandal Well you can take advantage of way more space with SSD type speeds with the technology. Sounds pretty good to me. But I do have a 40gb boot SSD on my X58... but not sure if I will use the caching or for boot when I bring it to my Z68 rig. I will probably give caching a try.

  • Thumbs up for AWESOMENESS !!

  • Why shitty WD drives and not proper HDDs (Samsung HD103SJ, for example) in all NCIX PCs?

  • @xcvgbhjk How are WD shitty?

  • yup definitely chewing on that gum while you trying to talk

  • are you eating something or what

  • The Z68X-UD3H-B3 needs more letters and numbers... how about: Z68X-UD3H-B3-NCIX-5350-OC-SSD-­OMG-GR8-90210-CA-USA-2012?

  • Actually, i think you have to plug it into the video card to use Dvitru right now you guys are set up for Ivirtu

  • I cringe a little whenever Linus touches a live motherboard. Been there. Not fun.

  • @TekGeekify hahahahaha. dude i bet!

  • Linus you forgat about 22nm cpu and PCIe 3.o suport with just bios update from gigabytes website for all 6 series intel chipsets family,awsom future proof mobo

  • who is the cameraman? can you show yourself in the next video please :D

  • @Caseyds620 ikr. can't get to 3.8ghz without getting to 80+ degrees.

  • Linus is the best unboxer and system tester I've ever seen !

    His videos have helped me a lot to build my new computer high end gaming system THX Linus =) !

  • In Soviet Russia, when a man points his finger up....its to tell other man to look at the ceiling...while you steal his computer stuff.

  • When will NCIX fix your problem in your web page under pc builder/intel; or AMD or any of the other ones?

    All I ever get is file not found for any of them!

  • Whats kinds of boot times would you get while caching a small ssd?

  • 0:09

  • whats wrong with getting a 40gb ssd for boot? i was thinking of getting one

  • @TheeJuanitoBurrito you should get 60 40 is too small for windows 64bit trust me. even though it only says that it will take up like 20 -30 gb i recomend 60 thats what i have

  • @TheeJuanitoBurrito I got a 60 agility 3! awesome, win7 HP 64, and EA origin with bfbc2 installed and starcraft 2, and its full :)

  • @souperman12345 well i have a 500gb drive. i just wanted to get a ssd as a boot drive

  • @TheeJuanitoBurrito yeah man thats cool, but programs load faster on an ssd, for the extra 30£ just get the 60gb :P well worth it matey :D

  • why does my sub box tell me i've watched this video, i know i haven't

  • Will the Nactua NH-14 fir on a Sabertooth x58 Mobo and in an Antec 900 case with a side mounted fan?

    What cpu cooler should I get that you know will fit on the mobo and in the case?

    CPU is i7 960 @Stock with Stock Cooling.

  • God damn talk then crazy russian if Linus has something wrong..

  • Using SSD caching, you DO NOT NEED A LARGE SSD. It changes the data on the ssd constantly and everything you use will load at ssd speeds.

  • Got to say.. it feels like my subwoofer is off while watching Linus's videos :)

  • how many gigs does the SSD have, i guess u dont need more than like 24gb ?

  • I don't like pre overclock, you pay extra for it and yet if something happens and you have to reset the bios to default config, you lose it....

  • LG : 'A company that makes TV's and Washers' "Lets make a DVD Burner and rule the PC Burner Marker"

    Marketing : "I don't think that will fly"

    LG : 'A company that makes TV's and Washers' "Nah, we can do it were LG"

    10 Years later 2011

    LG : 'A company that makes TV's and Washers' "Now we own the PC Burner Market, What should we do next?"

    Marketing : "Lets get into the graphics industry"

    LG : 'A company that makes TV's and Washers' "Perhaps, in time.. Muha ha ha ha ha ha"

  • @dormantreign dude LG make like everthing lol they make phones

  • @xjamestoddx Yeah, this was their beginning of world domination. :P

  • The chewing and the heavy breathing.

    wow..

  • iPad or even a Tablet yes Linus iPad is'nt a Tablet is a big ipod touch real tablets have widgets

  • Overclock tutorial on i7 970 cpu

  • Linus post a video tutorial on i7 970 CPU.. I see u r always ducking hard overclock but always willing to do easy ones ie 2600k vice versa

  • 40gb not enough for a boot drive? I had a laptop boot windows xp off of a 5GB hdd (really old) and it ran fine other than the fact it had almost no ram at all.

  • dude, stop chewing on camera

  • So if I bought this I could actually overclock the CPU as much as I wanted until it burned and yet I would keep the waranty "unvoided", right? :D

  • Linus should i overclock my i7 2600k when i have two gtx 580 sli?

  • @zizooo000ooo There is absolutely no question about it, a system as powerful as that will just perform much better overclocked.

  • @zizooo000ooo Yeah. It will be the bottle neck in newer games when you have 2 high end cards in SLI or Crossfire. I cant see it being necessary unless you're running at right high settings and 1080p+ resolution.

  • @misterpc23 fine so do you think it shall be 4.5 or higher ?

    :)

  • @zizooo000ooo Depending on what you get for watercooling you can anywhere from 4-4.8Ghz (The highest I've seen was 5Ghz on a nice Water cooling loop (360mm Rad)

  • is crazy russian just the camera man or what? does he do more?

  • hey guys what s that gadget that linus uses to measure wattage use???....where can i buy some...

  • @proximity30 Electricity Usage Monitor

    Get if off of Amazon for $30

  • It will be Epic!!!!!!!

    That MB sound cool but intel LOL...

  • why is a 60GB SSD not enough o.O

  • @sokrutu He said 40GB

  • @zseartcc25 sorry, my fault!

  • AWESOMEize-it!

  • anyone know where i can get a test bench like that

    

  • @edtks86

    Coolermaster makes a test bench similar, just google it.

  • @edtks86

    He did a video on it a while ago

  • @edtks86 watch?v=imls25PzuAQ

  • Do you get more pefromance from 2x4gb sticks or ddr3 or 1x8gb stick

  • @ll01dm 2x4

  • no no no ! linus is number 01 !

  • It's QuickSync not QuickPath bro :))

  • Is the eco better than the H70?

  • @spurrell No.

  • Um videos were uploaded in reverse?

    I watched the result video before this >.<

  • What do you use to monitor the consumption? I need that :D

  • @v1d300 its just a standard watt meter or kilowatt hour meter i think

  • @brodysstuff I don't know the display looks like it has a Power Analyzer too. A watt meter and power analyzer. But thanks for replying.

  • What sort of case you have made?

    Its not acrylic/plastic right?

    wats the surface?

  • i like how youtube fails are subtitling the video :D

  • Linus what are the dimensions of your PC Tech Station in mm? I need it.

  • 101001010!!! What's the difference!?

  • Haha you made me laugh again with the cooler, you are a funny guy :P

  • FAKE!!!

  • @AniAddictDaisuken STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF TROLL. NO ONE HERE CARES..move on.

  • @chronofusion Problem?

  • @AniAddictDaisuken common sense? need a life? seriously you trolls need to grow up and move on. You're not impressing anyone of any intelligence here.

  • @chronofusion Srsly... You guys take everything srsly =D

  • You dont have activate the virtu ur self or ? :o

  • Quicksync, Linus

  • I have a mushkin callisto deluxe 60gb ssd and my windows 7 x64 + norton + office + usual programs + 3d mark stuff is less than 20GB (about 18).

    If I disable hibernate file, move the virtual memory to the hard drive, disable system restore, all that stuff will be less than 14GB.

    So I don't know why a 40GB intel 320 series ssd won't do it.

    Also, won't using the ssd as a cache and having lots of writes on it make it wear faster?

  • @dkreventon my little brother has the exact same ssd. they work great dont they :D i have the 240 gig version. still within 5% of performance specs and i have reinstalled win 7 pro 64 bit 3 times since christmas. damn good ssd's. can't wait to save for the chronos deluxe. cheers

  • @dkreventon i have the same ssd, win7 and 4 games installed, still have 10 gigs space left, best $90 ive ever spent on my computer.

  • Linus how do you deal with dust in your test/working areas?

  • @GTBenergy can of compressed air once a week should work fine.

  • @GTBenergy They probably 2 air filters within the room. Very simple.

  • Vesta 5350. How much will it be?

  • "an iPad OR a tablet" heh heh.

  • can i use 60 gb ssd with 80 hdd? :3

  • Is that a Gameboy behind the monitor? =O

  • quicksync

  • Spinpoint F3 > WD caviar blue

  • Darn! He didn't touch the fan! -.-

  • Titties.

  • Linus likes candy!

  • linus why do you always use reference vga cards? theyre much louder than cards with a replaced dual fan cooler which btw also run cooler. andd tgey cost maybe $5-$10 more than a reference one

  • @SuperMaexle123

    Actually the GTX 560 Ti reference cooler is probably the most quiet cooler of all GTX 560 Ti's (trust me, I have it with MSI Twin Frozr II and the reference cooler is significantly more silent).

    And when using other cards (such as 570 and 580) the reference cooler pushes the hot air out of the case while the other fans exhaust it inside the case.

    So, my vote goes to reference desing. Well, atleast when talking about Nvidia.

  • what did you just eat?

  • is it me or u would want to buy the test bench as ur pc case but afraid to drop smthing on it like poring water

  • Case has no USB3? FAIL :(

  • Western Digital HDD's suck because they die so much!

  • @kendu10 Not my Western Digital Drives, and I got like 5 WD drives and not 1 broke on me. Am I lucky?

  • @1TheBlueWii1 My uncle bought WD drive which died after some months. Got repalacement which died after month. Classmate also bought WD drive which died after some months, got replacement which was also faulty, then he got another replacement which finally started working but also had some problems in beginning.

  • I think i know why he is called CRAZY russian <.< Thats some sick builds...

  • It's funny cuz u can basically get an NCIX PC for like 300 dollars cheaper if you buy the exact same parts and pay the 50 dollar assembly and 1 year warranty thing...

  • In the computer world, Linus IS number 0!

  • is this a giveaway?

  • LINUS IS NUMBER 1 D:<!!!!!

  • I think the 560 Ti is the most worth it Nvidia card.. I mean based on price. Cause everyone knows how fast GPUs get outdated, so u dont waste tat much money for a card tat can perform good in games.

  • but linus IS number 1!!!

  • @Venoml0rdz Sorry lad, there can be only ONE #1, and that's me, son. But i'd be happy to share it with Linus. ;)

  • looks like a decent rig :)

  • quick sync, not quick path, quick path is something else i dont remember lol

  • Plz dont chew a gum in ur reviews cuz its gross and i barely understand u thanx!!

  • @USSRTerminatorSV i can understand him fine

    

  • i ordered a MSI motherboard for NCIX, hopefully getting it "tomorrow". I also just got a gigabyte gtx 460 for $100! great deal.

  • Why are you calling it VESTA?

  • @kaspars1998 Because that's its name. Derp.

  • @cvdvds He means, why is that the name.

  • @kaspars1998 I think it's what they're calling the whole system that they are selling at NCIX

  • @kaspars1998 Vesta is the Roman goddess of the hearth.

  • @KlingonSpider Whats "hearth"?

  • @deadman656 its what back in the olden days would be in the center of a home. it's a essentially a fireplace, that cooks food and keeps a house warm. human dwellings have for more than 5000 years used a hearth. it was the core of a household.

  • QUICK SYNC

  • I got my first discrete gpu for my first build. Gtx 590 muhuhahahahaha
