But good evening, everybody. Thank you for joining me for another episode of Crypto Watch. And we'll be talking about a bunch of different stuff today. But let's start with a PC question first. Mark from YouTube. Bua ba na po ba yung mga RTX now? I assume, bua ba na ba yung prices? We haven't actually seen a lot of... It went down a bit nung maybe in the past two months or so. Kasi medyo na hype up na ba ba ba na yung prices. Especially kung nanood ka ng mga foreign YouTubers, lumabas sila ng mga videos na ba ba ba na yung price. But actually we haven't seen that happen at least on the local market. So mga ba na sila from last year, from the start of this year. Pero hindi pa siya... kind of the big decrease that everybody was hoping for and expecting. At least yun nga. To be honest, hindi ko alam kung sanggaling tung hype na ba ba ba ba talaga yung prices for GPUs eh. They've been steadily going down but I didn't see any personally, I didn't see any indication na big lang babagsak sila. So I don't know... Sometimes alam mo na sa YouTube or alam mo na sa social media in general, pa minsan hinahyepap lang na, oh ito mangyare, ito mangyare, then everybody else jumps on the bandwagon without any real data to support the actual thing na, oh ito mangyare. So at least yun nga, di ko naman I can't speak the prices in the states but at least dito sa atin mo ba na yung prices from the start of the year I haven't seen a big drop in price. From Luis Anthony from Facebook if gas prices go up do computer parts or components go up also well generally if gas prices go up everything goes up because everything is tied to gas kasi yung transport so even the cost of moving goods goes up so bulk the cost of diesel or the ships goes up even internally like when they get to the port and you get the trucks to ship them out and deliver them wherever so may cascading effect yun kapag yung gasolina yung tumas kasi every aspect of the economy is really affected we haven't seen prices go up pa naman kong bagayan yung kabalik taran ng tanong ni Mark Jason mo ba na ba yung prices hindi pa pero tumas rin ba sila hindi pa rin naman although yun nga it might happen because gas affects everything in the economy we'll do one last from Luigi then we'll start with the news for crypto watch for modern fans it's still recommend to go for high static pressure fans versus case fans for radiators Luigi's question talks about may bagang classicas yung fans may high air flows high pressure usually you want the static pressure for yung as nabangit ni Luigi para dun sa radiators the fans that you stick to the radiators although actually Jay's 2 cents is a good video on this parang the theme of the video very recent lang may I saw it in the last week or something para sabi niya yung topic ng video PC Advice that hasn't aged well and actually he had a good discussion about these fans nagsimula kasi yan datin yun they were really specialized fans the way depending on how the blades are designed yun nga, pwede pa silang pang high air flow or static pressure or things like that but that was a few years ago nowadays daw according to Jay's 2 cents lahat nung fan designs ngayon parayon na lang yun medyo hybrid na sila I guess they got the best features of both high air flow and high static pressure so if you look at all of the the fin designs or the what do they call the blades or I guess the fan blades if you look at the design of the fan blades now of most modern PC fans lahat sila medyo pare-pareho lang still have brands kasi nakasana yan na nung customers like Corsair has their SP which I think is their static pressure fans so brands still like to distinguish a little bit between high pressure high static pressure and high air flow fans but for the most part that's really just all marketing na lang the fan design now has basically standardized into a hybrid design of a static pressure and a high air flow fan so short answer to the question it doesn't really matter anymore for modern fans if you pick up any modern case fan medyo pare-ho lang talaga yun you don't need to worry too much about is it high static or is it high air flow so yun one less thing that you don't need to obsess about nang sabi, marami nang things na kailangan e obsessan that's one less thing we need to worry about like oh do I have the right fans in the proper position to do the right job yep so okay so the chat is kind of going na I'll just do one one news out I'll do one news item first and then I'll go through the chat so talking about today first up is Biden's executive order regarding cryptocurrency this came out just a few days ago I think Wednesday or Tuesday and then Bitcoin rose 8% after he issued the executive order which is kind of funny if you look at it kasi wala naman talagang bago dun sa EO na yun first what's an executive order it's just a the president so the president of the US he issued an executive order and EO is not law laws come from the legislative branch of government so that's congress and laws are basically instructions to the executive to do certain things even pina laws so let's say it's now illegal like what China did, it's now illegal to mine cryptocurrency for example that's a prohibitive law it's a it's a pinalo but it's basically also an instruction to the executive branch of government that you run after those guys the thing that we penalize the thing that we said is illegal you run after them and you prosecute them that's the way modern government works actually it's may just silo the responsibilities of government so an EO isn't actually that an executive order is not law it just comes from the president and it needs to issue from the prerogative or the powers of the president so it's not really and it's not even a new regulation because Biden doesn't have that power yet there's no enabling law that has been passed telling him that okay you can now regulate crypto or delegating to the SEC or the FTC or whoever the Fed the Federal Reserve so it isn't a law actually an EO is perhaps the mildest form of government issued directive that you can have which is why I find it kind of amusing na sobrang tumas yung bitcoin rose by 8% after Biden sent out that EO and the EO doesn't say anything very motherhood statement saying na yes we should look into crypto let's form a committee to study it and things like that so there is nothing earth shattering in the EO although tumas yung markets kasi na takod sila na the EO would be all about the negatives like whereas cryptocurrency has it has been noted that cryptocurrency may enable illegal transactions, money laundering and things like that so yung fear nung crypto community sa states yung EO puro negative lang but it turned out to be very balanced and it turned out to be very benign it's just like a directive na we should study it to to have basis for further regulations moving forward perhaps to coordinate with the SEC who seems to be the lead agency of the US government task about how should we regulate crypto so everybody in the crypto world was quite happy with that EO and even though it said nothing basically it had no yung it didn't ban anything it had no direct issue once to any exchanges or things like that but everybody was happy with it mainly because it didn't just dwell on the negatives interestingly also in the EO it's a directive for the US to explore it's a digital dollar which if you remember the last crypto watch we talked about the digital yuan of China which is the best in the world for a fee at cryptocurrency the Chinese already leading the way matagal na nilang pinag-aralan yung yung I mentioned last stream I think they started discussing it wala pa yung technical background or 2016 palang so the Chinese are really the world leaders in the race to have a digital fiat currency and Biden's EO also directs the relevant government agencies to okay let's also take a look at a digital dollar so it's kind of interesting that basically the two superpowers although I wouldn't call China a superpower yet but certainly the world's two leading economies are looking into some form of blockchain for their own sovereign currencies so we've talked about previously why that's in China's best interest na magkaroon sila nung digital yuan it allows them to better track their citizens it's another means of social control the US doesn't want to get left behind which is hence the need for the EO and the directive to explore the digital dollar but it's kind of late in the day it's kind of late in the day guys palang I mean for the states no other country has adopted a digital currency for as their sovereign no other country has adopted a blockchain project for their digital sovereign currency El Salvador of course has made bitcoin legal tender that was big news a few months ago but that's different from using blockchain to make a version of your digital to make a blockchain version of your fiat currency and well everybody is playing catch up to China can't beat China um can't beat China for that wait lang na just wanna get rid of this spam no I can do that pala but I can't get rid of the sorry lolita oh no it's still there alright so let me just go through some of the so everybody was happy with the EO of Biden and prices rose then prices dropped again let's take a pc question from mark for you the same mark yes the same mark as kanina 56k build na kaya na po ba 3060 on the hardware sugar side 3060 is let me check we have the eagle from gigabyte it's around 32k let me check 3060 gigabyte eagle is 34500 so baka bahirapan ka at 56k because a process like you'd want to pair it with something like the 5600x which is 18600 so just the CPU and the MOBO palang what's up pinoytex any tips po planning to buy pc rig tomorrow 30k budget po usually we recommend the 5600g matex MOBO you can get an SSD with that 16 gigabytes of RAM really a bit the 5600g is a decent processor and a decent APU pero yun it is really a entry level PC it's an entry level CPU so you need to adjust your expectations accordingly although it does play valorant and all of the other 1080p games quite well considering for the price stop guys sir I'll just go through the comments in order nil tatas po ba SLP from axie infinity I really could not say I I try not I don't follow SLP all that frequently so I try not to make predictions for currencies I don't follow kasi yun niya parang maghula lang ako di ko din talaga alam if you seen any of our streams or watch any of our videos you know one of our motos is na di kami mag mamarunong if we really don't know or we won't speculate and try to be honest when we know we don't know will tell you and in this case I am pretty sure I don't know that much about SLP because it's not one of the currencies I usually follow one from pesto would you say cryptos will rise since there are rumors that the collaboration of China, Russia, India might dethrone the US dollar first of all I'd be very surprised if the Chinese work with India on basically anything because those guys have a lot of geopolitical tension because of their shared border dispute with Kashmir so the Indians and the Chinese have actually fought several wars and the current prime minister of India see Modi is a Hindu nationalist so his platform of government is very chest-thumping pro-India or country the best so setting aside whether that's really the best way to unite the country sometimes it is right I mean nationalism is a very big in a way it's its own drug for the masses it's an effective way to bring a country together to make it more cohesive although it does have its toxic downside so setting aside whether nationalism is the way to go that is his platform so it's hard if that's your platform then you'll collaborate with an enemy of the state like China where a lot of national pride is involved because they've already backed up over the Kashmir territories so I'd be surprised if if India and China cooperate on anything let alone something as technically difficult as deciding to support one currency that will dethrone the US dollar and most likely that the currency will be the yuan or the Rembini however you want to call it so India I don't think would ever support that parang sampal yun sa kanila e even if it's to their advantage that the US dollar is no longer the de facto trading standard of the world I don't think they would ever support a that the Chinese yuan becomes the default standard so that said if the general question is like if crypto will rise because of developments in fiat currencies that's an interesting question it's really hard to say again yun nga parang lahat naman silasabi ko dito basically at the best they're educated guesses at the worst they're just like really pie in the sky going on my gut and speculating crypto kasi so far hasn't really reacted to fiat currencies whether the dollar becomes strong it doesn't really affect when the dollar is strong it doesn't really affect crypto if anything tumatas yung crypto alongside the dollar the market is doing well crypto generally does well which leads to a stronger dollar so the usual signs of a healthy economy a good stock market a strong currency usually pushes crypto upward also they're not inversely related na kung babagsak yung isang let's say the value of the dollar tatas yung crypto usually correlated, meaning tatas yung isa tatas din yung isa so of course now with real world events playing out in Russia and Ukraine there is some I guess it depends kasi on the currency that you peg it to if it's the Russian rubble if it's the Russian currency yes medyo tumas yung crypto bumagsak kasi yung rubble but that's because of all of the sanctions but in terms of the peg of the US dollar the relationship of the US dollar to crypto prices in general usually those are directly correlated when one goes up, the other goes up also so if any particular developments sa uprevingan if any particular developments cost the US dollar to fall based at least then crypto prices would also drop but again, it's very difficult to predict it's not like I'm saying I'm going to be 100% correct and I'm super sure of that general trends lang usually if the US stock market is up crypto is up, if the stock market is down crypto is down as well and that's the same with US currency news number 2 before we go through any other chats this is a short bit actually bitcoin is dirtier now after having been kicked out of China so the recent energy surveys yung mga miners na naisipa from China they had to move elsewhere and a lot of them moved to the states a lot of them moved to neighboring countries although like Kazakhstan which had its own political turmoil so yung nalip na yung kungsan sila lumipat unfortunately the energy protection there wasn't as green so hindi galay sa renewable energy resources most likely an coal so the production of bitcoin now is causing more greenhouse gas pollution and for more pollution in general currently kaisa saanong the majority of the mining was done in China actually it's insane like by one estimate China at its peak had 90% of the mining bitcoin mining capacity then after the crackdown meron pa rin naman but it's dropped to 10% so i guess there's a lot of renewable energy in China tapos talagang the Chinese miners were trying to make their mining operation super efficient so they really relocated there geothermal or hydroelectric parang China doesn't have nuclear reactors but i'm not too sure and well it depends on who you ask if nuclear power is green so that's a topic for another time kaisa mo sa going to texas a lot of miners did end up in texas or in mayami parang florida also had some incentives but yes texas as well ay alam ko yung like there was a push to go to Iceland kasi maraming geothermal energies in Iceland so cheap and renewable texas i don't know how texas produces a lot of its power although a lot of it ata is dirty hindi sya green hindi sya from renewable resources but yeah so anyway the overall emissions cost by bitcoin mining has gone up because of the exodus out of china alright next question Vladimir had well Vladimir's opinion is that SLP is at its all time high oh is SLP only 2 to 4 pesos now mas sinusudan ko pa ng price ng aksimismo yung AXS the governance token or the crypto of aksi infinity kaisa sa actual price ng SLP so i really do not quite know pinoy tex better to buy while the TC is cheap the price is actually quite good now it's around 38.8 the last time i did crypto watch which was around the Feb 22 or Feb 16 it was at 37.6 and in january it was around 43.8 so yes the prices have been actually tomas to around 41 after the last episode mga 41k tapos bumaba and then umakyat ulit because of the Biden EO did bumagsak ulit so actually imagine wild times for crypto and it doesn't matter guys what the high is now what matters are the fluctuation so imagine if you had bought before the EO tapos big lang tomasya by 8% bento mo na yung di ba so if you are a short term trader yung mabili san lang you don't really care too much about like oh malayo siya sa from it's all time high you just care about the fluctuations are enough to get you a decent 5% return 8% after 2-3 days is crazy that's a that's a hell of a return yan yung maganda yan yung something to look at sa crypto markets even in a down market fluctuation especially now with Ukraine and so many things going on the fluctuations are happen quite quickly and then akit ba ba talaga yan 5% 8% so yung yaw bum 41 na sa 38 tayo ngayon that's almost a 10% drop so if you are a short term trader this is actually what you like because there's a lot of room to make money kahit mag 3% lang yan bumali ka tapos bukas 3% di ka raman long term hold 3% ka na after 16 hours I mean di ba parang that's a very good return so something to keep in mind which is why I really enjoy watching the crypto space and trading in it the up and downs it's really like you can really make quite a bit good sum of money if you're willing na medyong matata medyong matataglang loob mo and you get the timing right yeah so not tip for any short term trader is don't get too obsessed yung all time high in bitcoin was around 60 plus k tapos kaya na sa 38 na lang so layo na baka babagsak pa and everything but if you notice the day to day fluctuations of the market there's really a lot of margin for profit let me just take a shop question from Clarence how do we do it we assemble the rig yes and we test everything first and then we actually ship the rig fully assembled already so we stuff it with bubble wrap to make sure nothing gets dislodged things like that although if the customer is tech savvy willing naman siya to plug in the GPU again and things like that then we can also ship it the rig mostly yung GPU yung GPU the one that we try to ah I'll answer Revision's question after this question the GPU is the primary part that we're most concerned about when we do shipping to when we ship outside of Metro Manila if the customer is tech savvy then we can remove the GPU after installing everything tapos siya na bahala or if not yung yaw we stuff it with bubble wrap which sounds a bit scary but we've been doing it for a while and then okay naman eh the results have been quite good I mean to be honest we haven't had any complaints like oh my god when I got the PC everything inside it was smashed and the SSD which should be on this side was on this side or you know whatever so we stuff it with enough bubble wrap in the states what companies do is they have this kind of like pouch into the case and they insert it and they inflate it which actually looks pretty darn cool except that we don't have the same technology here like we don't have that pouch available so the closest we come is to stuff the heck out of the interior with lots and lots of bubble wrap so the customer will have to at the very least be comfortable enough with the computer para kailang niya buksan yung side panel, tanggalin lahat bubble wrap and then close the PC and plug it in using the the included power cable ship via air freight airport to airport or sea freight it's door to door career so we ship out via Ninjavan and that this yun it's P2P, point to point so from our shop in Makati to Mindanao basically yes they do use air freight I believe at the RMA if something's broken you'd have to send it back to us here in Makati in Manila and yeah that's basically something we ask of all our customers whether you are outside Metro Manila inside Metro Manila the very least that we ask of customers is that they bear the cost of sending the item back to us before we can check it out and if we'll send it back to you you also bear the cost of shipment from the shop to your place for the repaired or replaced part lastly do you accept crypto for payment yes we actually accept Bitcoin we've accepted it for a while now it's actually also already integrated into our shop payment checkout procedure we do sana want to accept more other mainstream crypto like Ethereum heck even Litecoin Litecoin has been around for a while provider that would do that well, you know, medyo accurately and di kami kakabahan so far we haven't been able to find any but we do want to expand the crypto that we can we can accept as payment and we have had customers actually pay us in Bitcoin Revejan, you know the answer to this one we do do personal deliveries depended lang it's been fortunate na na fiat to be on the receiving end although as to your I notice you commented on the Isabella repair so we had to answer it this also ties into Clarence's question we sent out a rig to Isabella when the customer got it may problema sa RGB fan sa likod the RGB wasn't working we tried to remotely fix it ating with the customer asking him to check certain stuff but ayaw talaga one of our staff members happened to be going to Isabella on a personal trip so he volunteered na danon ko na rin si customer I'll check it out so it turned out to be a loose wire so that is something that can occur and has occurred when we ship out builds may maalog talaga it's just the nature of the thing so hindi namin control yung career so those things have happened wires getting dislodged and things like that so when our staff arrived in Isabella they quickly fixed the part basically he just had to plug in the fan and then everything was good to go but Revejan commented na sana all personal service actually I did made the comment at least we haven't had to come by to fix something at your place meaning okay naman lahat nung parts except of course at your UPS but that one got resolved naman eventually okay wait I'll try not to skip too much over the chat BTC is on sale it is actually the price now is a very attractive price again I can hear I can almost hear kaiso laughing because every episode of the crypto watch I'm like yeah na sa good time to buy ang baba nung prasyo and then babagsang pag alit yung mga prasyo so I'm kind of an eternal optimist when it comes to investing so take everything I say with a grain of salt it's not advice it's just my personal opinion but yeah I would to be honest I've been so busy with the shop I haven't been able to attend to my own personal trading and the YouTube channel man actually to be honest this past three months I've been very tiring from a personal point of view it's like I have three full time jobs my daughter is one year old so I try to take care for personally as much as possible I have to run the shop we do have staff and they're very good but things like ordering things like talking to customers over chat that's still usually 100% me pushing upgrades like we have a major upgrade now to our website ordering system project pizza so I'm in touch with Rocky the programmer and then finally the last full time job is like YouTube so every it's great that we have a sponsor and please do support our sponsor pero we have deliverables to them every month so it's really it's like this past three months it's really come to a point either editing a video or shooting a video or preparing the list of parts that I'm going to order from the suppliers to the next day or something so it's really been quite hectic the past three months so I haven't been able to follow my personal trading as much as I would like that and also I took a beating when the prices went down so I'm still kind of smarting from that like if you watch the other streams I'm like oh yeah I put $12 into OMG now it's like at $4 so it's like a 70% drop or something terrible man, terrible pero that's the breaks and I am confident I always say about crypto is that yun yung maganda sa crypto babagsak siya, din tataa siya you just need to hold man hold paper lost ang naman yan kaisa it's going to go lower the Anton effect I know rat, I always say na I always say na it's a good price and then it drops so the past three months have been really hectic I haven't been able to trade as much as I want to pero I do keep track of the prices and I am tempted now actually to be honest I said the same thing last crypto watch but I haven't jumped back in the game I am tempted now to jump back in although it is a very volatile time I mean crypto by its nature is already volatile pero ngayon mas malalapa because of you know Russia the oil gas prices spiking which we'll talk about in a little bit and things like that so it is a wilder ride pa the usual Vladimir Robert Kiyosaki who I believe is the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad saying goodbye to Bitcoin actually I did not I did not know that that he was big into Bitcoin you always hear big names either like getting going hard into crypto like Mark Cuban last year or big names bashing crypto usually the old school investor guys and things like that although those guys feeling co they fundamentally don't understand what crypto is and then they are kind of annoyed baka nandaming tao na kaka pero it's like a scam because they come from the old school of investing na puro stocks nang yung alam nila to be honest I think when I hear pension fund investors and people like who are you dealing with and stocks and things like that when they kind of slam cryptocurrencies as being scams and being pyramid schemes and you know if you put your money there you're gonna waste it and kiss your money goodbye I think sometimes that comes from a place of I fundamentally don't understand this I'm afraid of it and yun I don't want to open my mind what the possibility is so I've seen a couple of old guys online who are very ardent anti-crypto guys see Robert Kiyosaki I don't know his trading method I don't know his trading success or his philosophy I have not read Rich Dad Poor Dad to be honest although it is one of those books right I mean you always hear like Rich Dad Poor Dad pero I haven't read it myself Mays Baby Wolf expresses excitement for Bifinity that launched launched by Binance or Binance Yeah Binance usually launches a lot of stuff I don't know what this particular product is or who Baby Wolf is to be honest from Kaiser Crypto does usually rise in times of recession does it though I'm trying to think about the last financial crisis like way back although it was sufficiently a while ago that Robert K. Clarence Robert K. Fad Bankruptcy for his business years back I will I am kind of skeptical about a lot of people who hold themselves out to be financial gurus and things like that kasi well you know if you're an independent trader a part of you does think you can do it better that's why you're doing it on your own that's why you're not paying a pension fund manager you're not investing it in UITFs or unit investment trust funds kasi iniisip mo na mas magaling ka like you can do you can see the dog in the background you can get a better return than those financial experts at the same time parang basically the way I look at it is you need to choose your experts there are a lot of scammy experts but there are a lot of good experts also and actually I'm reading a very interesting book now parang the title is Breaking the Internet so it's an exploration of influencer culture and the general trend to distrust experts so yung mga influencer parang they're just run of the mill guys they initially weren't celebrities and things like that but because there is a modern backlash against experts and told what to do by experts and you can see that in things like Brexit in the rise of President Trump four years ago I have worry of saying that all experts don't know what they're talking about and things like that yung yung yung pick choose your experts choose your experts wisely some of them can be quite scammy and just getting a name for themselves and things like that just out for exposure got lucky once you can really tell even so much the success rate it's more like the thought process like if they explain their thinking even if nothing is 100% right investing is like playing poker you do the best with the cards that you have and you try to maximize your odds sometimes it works out sometimes it doesn't but what's important is the process don't go all in kung 2, 3 yung if you're familiar with texas all them 2, 3 yung hand mo tapos you're just bluffing all the way it's like poker you want to play the hand to the best of your advantage and maximize your odds that's my personal investment strategy and that's also what I try to look for in the experts that I follow and that I listen to yes it's good to have a good track record but more importantly what's your thought process how do you approach things why do you think the price will go up or why do you think it will go down so crypto does usually rise in times of recession I'll have to take a look I'll have to go back to the data although I do agree with Kaiser that I like looking back at historical data which everybody says it's not a predictor of future performance so past performance does not indicate future performance just because it doesn't mean that it will rise again which is super true but things usually follow trends whether it's crypto whether it's some other pricing a lot of a lot of things in life follow trends and that's what you look for when you look at the historical data of the for crypto oh lolita lolita was blocked did I block that? I don't think I have any of my mods but no Shinji what is affect the GPU and PC part prices to go up as well I assume you're talking about the gas prices and the war in Ukraine we did touch on it a little bit last stream that Ukraine actually exports a lot of the xenon gas which is a critical component in the lasers that they use to etch the micro circuitry of the chips so there that's one unexpected side effect that could lead to another chip shortage or contribute to a delay in chip production and that could cost prices to go up again so it's too early to tell I haven't seen it as a retailer our hardware sugar is a first and foremost a PC shop as a retailer we haven't seen prices go up pa naman not to say that they won't go up in the future with crazy gas prices going up Russia doesn't really produce a lot of chips and the materials the raw metals don't really come from China although there are many uncommon things like that xenon gas which apparently is necessary for the lasers which etch the chips I'm not sure which question Kaiser was answering the 1200 is an IGPU equal to a 1050Ti I think to be honest I don't know what the equivalents are I've always wanted to compare actually although the 1200 is pretty good I'd pair it with a GPU of the bat already I'm not too sure what the equivalents is sorry guys I'm like super behind the chat let's do a PC question Kebong off topic ask ko lang about the acceleration of chassis fan nakasaksak ng fans sa MOBO di po ba pag nakamaksang CPU nag-auto-todo din po CPU fan how about chassis fan? basically the question is if the case fans are tied into the fan curve in fact the CPU fan has its own header on the motherboard specifically nakatagay para sa CPU fan yung CPU fan header so and the CPU fan usually ramps up if the hotter it detects the CPU is getting the chassis fans usually do not follow the fan curve or do not yeah they're not tied into the fan curve of the of the CPU fan but you can use there's a lot of software out there afterburner sorry that's for the GPU or can you use MSI afterburner for the fans I forget but there is software out there that you can use to set the fan curve of your case fans as well if you want them going full throttle 70 degrees or 75 degrees or something yeah so short answer no they are not tied into the fan curve usually is it in the bios Ryan Kalma for the fan curve trying to think like what do I use to di ko masyadong sinaset yung wet because my pc is so old that's another time that's a topic for another video boy setting up a budget for a 1440p 27 inch monitor with GPU CPU um 3060 or higher CPU 5600x or higher that pretty much would cover a 2k setup yeah so GPU 3000 series nvidia or the 6700x t of AMD although that's more equivalent to like a 3070 roughly on the nvidia side CPU 5600x very good on the intel side 12500 12500 and up is a good gaming cpu for cpu you don't actually need a lot of course since the games don't really maximize the speed advantage that you can get from it so you don't need to go bonkers with a lot of course if gaming is your primary use for the computer right let's do the third uh point of news coinbase blocks 25,000 russian accounts this in and of itself because the rational coinbase was that they were suspected coinbase suspected that these particular accounts were being used for illicit activities that in and of itself isn't like super i included it in the news round up kasi it's an interesting question now in the crypto world the whole point of crypto was the bypass governments and government authority walang central authority that's the whole point of bitcoin and all the other succeeding cryptocurrencies walang central bank you're not beholden to any government any institution it's a decentralized token of value it's a lack of a better um it has value but it's not controlled by any one organization um but now with the russian conflict in the ukraine it's interesting that a lot of people are pressuring exchanges in particular to block russia and you know it's on one hand it's an interesting argument kasi on one hand yes it's good that if the exchanges were to block russian users russian purchases of crypto and whatnot that's further pressure put on the russian government further in keeping with the other sanctions already put in place by other governments so it's good in the sense that it pressures russia it makes russia feel that your actions are really hurting your economy and your citizens but on the other hand it kind of defeats the it kind of defeats the purpose of crypto that crypto was supposed to be agnostic like it doesn't care about anything doesn't care about governments doesn't care about actions that's why bitcoin sometimes used for illicit transactions because it's the mode of choice because it's anonymous at the same time nobody controls it it's agnostic about everything so some people are saying that that's that runs counter to the whole point of crypto na it shouldn't be used it shouldn't there shouldn't be gatekeepers in place that should have that power over a cryptocurrency the power to decide who can use who can trade ethos of iban man yung russian accounts ipressure natin yung russian government that runs counter to the entire thing na decentralize nga dapat yung crypto dapat walang mga gatekeepers na makakasabi na baawal na si us baawal na si russia baawal na si person A alam natin drug dealer yan so baawal na siya bumalin ng cryptocurrency the whole point of crypto should be decentralize agnostic of everything so the world is messy and when high sounding ideals like that you should be able to trade anything that you want as long as it's not illegal like you're not paying for a human slave for example or things like that or even then some hardcore crypto guys would be like the whole transaction is for the whole point of crypto was it's not beholden not controlled by anybody so the whole push for an autonomous kind of value transaction system versus the good also of trying to pressure russia into stopping its invasion of sovereign country i don't have an answer to that that's really above my pay grade is just i find these questions very fascinating and interesting that's really where the shit hits the fan where the rubber meets the road parang madali magka ideals you do a project it'll be great, it's our freedom it's nobody can tell us what to do but then it gets messy in the real world and sometimes those ideals have to meet with two conflicting goods as it were here the autonomy on one hand, wala mag gatekeepers versus pressuring russia punishing russia and trying to push him back trying to push back to the negotiation table if you watched our latest video on the channel, it's a very personal video for me i do also talk about two goods there on one hand, the good that copyright brings that authors receive benefit and payment and compensation for their work for the time they put in, for their scholarship for their brilliance versus another societal good that society reaps that nations benefit from having more literate citizens access to the widest range of literature widest range of texts possible if you have no idea what i'm talking about feel free to check out our latest video the title is the title is a bit flick baity best culture websites to visit but to be honest guys it's not really the culture that you're thinking of i know what you're thinking of but it's not that that's why i included number 3 not so much crypto exchanges are shutting down accounts from Russia it was more like i find that whole topic fascinating where is crypto really decentralized and when people start getting control over it kasi andami ng accounts sa coinbase sa binance in effect those guys become gatekeepers which is something that crypto was designed to avoid to prevent to go around the central banks and the governments and then big lang na ka ibang gatekeepers just another since we're i'm just gonna do the ad again guys because i promise to sponsor you with play it twice back at you after the break so kaya kung nagahalap ka ng legit mura at original software check out cdeoffers.com wait guys so the ad actually finished for once let me go through some of the other chats pj i hear you men unfortunately we're not the ones calling the shots sinji another question is it worth waiting for the next gen of gpu's which is supposed to come out towards the end of this year common question and my answer is always it really depends if you can wait best to wait the performance gains of the next gen are supposed to be substantial between the 2000 series and the 3000 series so yung ampere the current generation ampere versus touring i think was the codename for the 2000 series layo performance gain sa 3000 series i'm not too sure everything is just speculation and leak spot this point for love lace just like as a trivia of the naming scheme for the codenames for the idlyja gpu's those are all famous computer scientists touring was Alan touring famous british scientist especially during world war 2 he helped build some of the earliest computers touring is also famous for the touring test for ai and basically it postulates if you have a conversation with somebody and you can't tell it's an ai then it passes the touring test meaning parang it's it's not a sentience test but it's more like it's legit parang it's indistinguishable na from a human also kind of tragic Alan touring's life because he was gay when it was still illegal in britain for him to act on those to be gay it was still illegal in britain back then so the government had him chemically castrated and this really took a toll on his mental health and he took his own life and sayang i mean it's such a brilliant if you read some of the stuff that Alan touring did grabe i mean genius brilliant parang nakakahinayang lang what else he could have discovered contributed to computer science if he hadn't taken his own life and this was by government who he served faithfully that he had a lot of that he did a lot of work for during world war 2 so yag ba re going off on a tangent here but it's sad how much the world has lost because of hatred and bigotry like what's happening in the states i think it's florida that's trying to pass or texas something about making the word gay illegal or something like that anyway a bit off topic but Alan touring's life is an example of how much the world has lost because of hatred and bigotry the next one is ampere so baka famous scientist lang in general i think ampere probably came up with the unit of measurement that bears his name so the amps to be honest it's always confused me like the difference between amps so the ampere jewels voltage i mean i'm not my background is not electrical engineering so those all measure like just think electricity and those all kind of just fall under the general topic of electricity but like the difference between amps and voltage and watts and things like that i've never been quite you know i have to look it up and then it sounds clear after i wrap my head around it but then i forget like what the difference is so yon lovelace it's actually it's another british citizen aida lovelace earlier than Alan touring so this was like 19th century and also i think she was a friend of Charles Babbage came up with the design for one of the first computers amazing in the 19th century that they could already think of stuff like that aida lovelace was in that kind of circle and she contributed early, wala pa talaga kasi informal computer science then but i think she also had theories on a thinking machine and if you take a look at those writings now they really reflect what computers would eventually become so yeah so you got ampere and sorry touring ampere and then lovelace but my short answer to this is if you can wait best to wait because usually the performance gains are quite impressive but you know if you have the itch for whatever reason parang di ka nabaka intay there's a game that you really want to play and you know your old graphics card just can't handle it anymore then go for it this is not a satisfactory answer to a lot of people because a lot of people are like I just want a yes or no answer but I really can't yes or no depended rin talaga kasi sa point sa context mo e kung san ka nang gagaling do you need a do you need a GPU now for whatever reason versus can you wait if you can wait yes better to wait for personal reasons you just want it now sometimes it's very gratifying just to scratch that itch yung ayoko nang magintay bilin ko na total nakayipon ako then yeah go for it I mean whatever would make you happy is the corny but short answer to that JD Paris is it possible to have sub 20k 3050s I commented on this before I think it may di magtanong or something but I saw a Facebook post from some random guy saying na if you see a 3050 na naka 20,000 overpriced yan so according to that poster kailangan fair price below 20k tapos ito na sasibingin ko na yung sa'yo guys lahat nung mga dealer prices so dealer pa yan na hindi pa yung shop level lahat nung prices nakita ako sa 3050 19,500 pataas so whoever and again this is really what annoys me sometimes when I read comments on the internet wala naman talaga silang alam pero comment sila nung comment takala naman may alam sila and di naman sa nagmamaya bang because I do have access to those prices because of my job because of the shop and so you know it's always the easiest way to label yourself an expert is to just jump on the bandwagon and say overpriced ma-GPU na yan overpriced yung PC shop na yan overpriced magkambabili yan overpriced tanga ka kung bumili ka at that price because you're overpriced and again going back to what we were talking about earlier you really need to be careful about the experts that you listen to there are a lot of supposed experts online but ito na tatapat ako sa inyo all of the prices I've seen above 20,000 either prices for certain brands for a 30,50,000 mura na yung 19,500 na yan so whoever you know that anonymous poster really just gusto nga tanongin si New Supplier do na ako bibilay so it's very unlikely that you will find brand new 30,50,000 for below 20,000 kasi basically hindi lang lugi pa sila because most of the 30,50s I've seen dealer price have been above 20,000 alright so I'm only halfway through the chat guys sorry I gotta I do try to keep current but the MSRP hi na ko I do actually want to make a video about MSRP na san ba yung galing MSRP na yan kalakuan but anyway stop Casey Bollos in script to overpriced parang I want to jump in to buy but always add stuff when that happens when I think that it's overpriced it's you know it's a good price and then I buy Casey Bollos ama di naman ama but you know with these streams I do tend to just ramble on for those of you who don't know I used to be a professor before so I used to teach English at the college level um I did tend to ramble on a little bit there also so I did feel sorry for my students but I'd like to think that my rambling was educational naman even if not directly related to the topic that we were talking about alright Revin Jaan still waiting on the commercial sponsored the new shop they haven't actually requested for a a new cut so to speak of the of the video so we're still okay with the current one I also don't know how Rocky the Programmer would bike I guess you could bike around in the parking lot but it's not the same right parang di na siya kasing mas makanda yung labas kasi nung gihoy pero maybe we might do something equally creative if they do ask us to cut a new cut a new cut a new ad for the sponsor KC Bolios Rafael is single and he is recently arrived back in country so he just finished his trip the late KC Bolios I hope they didn't mean that like in a like they wanted you to to croak basically I don't know actually what nicknames my students had for me maybe it's better I didn't know yes this is true Rafael usually trades in stocks ako naman usually in crypto and I have no idea that I don't follow the local stock market I only follow the foreign exchanges enough to be able to get a sense kasi usually kung tatas in stocks on a day where there's no war on a day when there are no other super veiling factors usually tatas din yung crypto ah so rich dad poor dad not a good dad no ah so he had a bomb prediction um well yun talagay mahirap believe me I know I'm always saying that yeah not a good time to buy although if you if to be fair like when I said that last time if you had bought then and sold it around 41 that's not a bad not a bad ROI in less than a month what's the cost of power supply because it's a warranty because of power surge 3 months pa lang PC ko um um well we do get this question more from or this experience from people outside of metramanila where it's not reliable power production nila so sobrang 30 in the sense of the signal is not clean so di siya yung parang direcho lang talagang patas baba um the general advice would be to get a good AVR although although the PSU if it's a decent PSU should already have protections in place yun nga may mag-ovp over voltage protection OCP over current protection the a standard PSU from a good manufacturer take your pick FSP, Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA even Silverstone is kind of decent um all of those guys should have deep cool, decent all of the quiet all of those guys should have built in protection so I'm surprised na na sama yung mother board um but if you're asking how you can avoid it yun nga get a good AVR and get a good power supply um at the most masasunog si power supply dapat parang kung baga the power supply siya yung parang secret service agent nung mobomo kung sa president ang kabag may when there's danger the PSU will throw itself in front of the danger so siya lang dapat masira hindi yung ibang components actually that other components become damaged because of a power surge pero yun nga, you do need a good power supply yung may reputable naman yung um may reputable na brand okay last bit of news kaiser sometimes the surge is just too strong lightning strike I guess although I mean ya very rare and then it also if your house is proper grounding so yung may the third prong that most of the plugs come with now although it's not enough that the power outlet in your house has the third prong there should really be a grounding rod that's stuck into the ground that all of your internal wiring feeds into so that may two nai na grounding hindi lang butas wala naman talagang you know there's nothing connected to that third hole unfortunately proper grounding isn't something that's common in our in the construction of our houses here actually na patigin ako sa sakit ko na wala naman third third hole although yes I do agree with kaiser I guess very strong ones would do it but you know that's I mean that's well ya it happens but you know it's not like a run of the mill like I want to do a test now like can this PSU survive a lightning strike tipong gan yan pero like how would you simulate a lightning strike and things like that and things get like super dangerous when you start talking about simulating lightning strikes gotta be some type of unlucky malas malang so the last news bit I just put this in as like speculation everybody's starting to feel the pinch now patas na patas yung gas prices I have a friend who regularly who regularly messages me na ay patas na ulat yung prices pero nga niyan for gas so ya gas prices are going up again clients always buy from hardware sugar it's like where do we go from here basically is the last news bit to to sort of reflect on crypto has gone up and down because of the because of the conflict in Ukraine initially it dropped then it went up suddenly kasi some people attribute it na people are buying crypto to support Ukraine so they buy let's say you're an American you want to support Ukraine they send it to a wallet address that belongs to the Ukrainian government or something actually buy that you'd have to have a crazy large volume to affect crypto prices the way that they were affected by the the rising prices but with the Ukraine conflict na sobrang grave talaga yung really up and down will gas price cost crypto to drop or rise my money is drop crypto hasn't been a good hedge historically so a lot of people speculated before na oh bitcoin can be like gold in times of crisis when people want to keep their money safe they don't know where to put it in usually the safe assets are gold meaning that their value doesn't really go up and down that much but bitcoin hasn't really been a good hedge against instability kasi the price has just been too unstable so and this is borne out by the previous you look at the prices whenever something major hits bitcoin is not seen as a or is not yet seen as an asset that is pang crisis usually buy gold pag may crisis kasi yung usually stable yung price ng gold bitcoin price is anything but stable especially during a crisis and you can see that in the short time that Russia has been at war with Ukraine actually when we last did crypto watch last month hindi pang linusub nung Russia yung Ukraine they were just putting troops on the border they were still basically laying the propaganda war in place with Putin's speech but they hadn't actually launched an offensive and even then so prices were already depressed then they're down again they shot up because of Biden then they went down again so very volatile but as you mentioned earlier it's an opportunity you can exploit like if you want to if you're just in it for the short term to make a good to make a good ROI then 5% swing here or there if that's music to any traders ears 24 hours 48 hours na ka 5% return ka na that's damn good so will crypto go up or down because of gas prices or the general instability in general my personal vote would be in general it will go down so I am tempted to buy now not everything I would buy a little bit see if it goes up or down once you get a 3% return benta mo na yan so definitely the market is good for short term traders with some fire in their belly yung di na tatakot maipit with a sudden drop or a sudden increase yung willing to gamble sometimes you gotta know when to hold and when to fold so that's really all I have for this episode of crypto watch let me just while princess added to her PSUOs dami na namin na putan na technicians at nakarating nagtamin ng DTI dahil lang sa void ang warranty ng motherboard ko sana I'm not really sure where the question is going like if you want to avoid something in the future something similar like that get a good PSU and a good AVR I'm trying to think to be honest if we've had a similar experience in the shop pero parang wala talagay but if you know hardware sugar we're just like yeah sure we'll try to get warranty a lot of shops are not hardware sugar baka inaano ka lang na o kasi ninyang pwede although to be fair to if it's damage extrinsic or sa labas na ng board hindi naman ka sa lana ng board na sira siya for some other reason usually hindi ngayon covered by warranty but like to be honest we've been successful in getting motherboards replaced na na damage to user error nabasa yung motherboard kasi nag custom liquid water cool yung customer I'm not expecting anything but perhaps you can try and we also said na again no harm naman if we try so we got the motherboard back we send it back tapos pinalita naman ni supplier so even if technically it's not covered by warranty sometimes if you get a good shop like us they will try to go the extra mile to silang kung kaya bang palitan kay supplier because to be honest guys the suppliers, the brands are not that stingy about warranty yung hindi don't ask for original boxes and things like that and I won't go into detail anymore kasi regular viewers of the channel already know my many rants about oh it's a hardware sugar no BS warranty hindi namin pinapihirapan yung mga customers namin to get warranty and things like that so we'll just leave it at that for now but the suppliers are quite good most part for honoring warranty and basa yun ang legit naman na warranty claim stop or go bird I saw you commented lemme just go through everybody that is the pin comment in that video, Luigi if you're still watching CJ to be honest I really could not recommend a laptop I don't follow the laptop space so I'm not familiar with the prices and the brands my my personal opinion would be get a desktop especially for that price laptops always do come with a sort of premium so kung performance sable mo and you really do want best price to performance with a budget like 30,000 get na lang a desktop kasi yun yung mas maganda na price to performance yung laptop you really do pay a bit more kasi mas mahirap naman miniaturize components to get more performance into something that can be classified so for 30,000 you really want to maximize your budget get the most performance you can out of that and the best way to do that would be to get a desktop I did kaiser and I'm kind of annoyed actually kasi it's really difficult for shops to keep up with all of the different variants and then I like this current line of AMD so it's very clear you got the 2G 5600, 5700 and you got the 5600X the 5800X and then the 5900 and the 5900X and the 5950X but now andami ng is this somebody texting me or is this somebody oh no it was like the door behind you I heard the sound kasi at the text or something so I'm kind of annoyed now with AMD kasi they announced like a bunch of different things although hinyayong 3D na update I forget parang the 3D architecture thingy napang update sa 5000 series they've announced that that's been floating around in the tech news for a while and it's supposed to have parang they're trying to catch up kasi with the performance of the 12th gen but from logistics and cost-wise point of view ang hirap for the shop to stock all of those different variants and you never know what a customer will want so that day we didn't stock Intel after 9th gen so we skipped kind of 10th and 11th now we're stocking the 12th gen then now we gotta stock the new AMD CPUs also the 3D adds a lot of cost to the shop so I'm kind of annoyed with AMD about all of those new CPUs yeah head I forget where this comment came in I don't know because I was ranting about those guys na the guys who like mouthing off on the internet pero wala naman sila talagang alam na anything above 20k for a 30-50 is overpriced it's super layo from reality actually I haven't been following his tweets Elon Musk is like speaking of experts Elon Musk I admire him for for his entrepreneurship and grabyon like he really almost went bankrupt when he was funding both SpaceX and Tesla so very willing to put his money on the line he doesn't seem like the typical billionaire who's like just buying yachts and things like that although in recent years maywala bas din yung side na very very demanding of his employees kind of dismissive mayjo alam niya that he can get away with a lot of things to be honest I don't follow his twitter a lot I don't know actually what he said about crypto recently pero grabinga din yung na whenever he tweets about something usually mga bagsak or market yung markets depending on what he says although even Elon now has been at least in the new cycle has been a bit surpassed by Russia and Ukraine although he has petitioned a judge recently kasi na kaano yan na he's not allowed to tweet in theory there should be a committee that screens all of his tweets and that goes back to a judgment with SEC so Tesla is a publicly traded company but he tweeted this is like 2 years ago or pre-pandemic I think that he was thinking of taking Tesla private again meaning delisting it from the stock exchange and he already had private investor to buy out the public investors you're not allowed to do things like that with a publicly traded company that you're the head of so the SEC the US SEC got involved and then they came to an arrangement with him which is actually fascinating I think it's the only sobrang interesting kasi na intersection ng social media of a CEO of the SEC so there's legal, there's social media there's influencer, there's management it's like it's bonkers Elon Musk and the things he gets into is bonkers but it's the only time I know that the SEC as part of it's they came to a settlement with Elon I think they find him, they find the company for those for his comments and then part of the deal was that all of his tweets should be run through a committee or somebody basically checks what he tweets and approves or disapproves them before he tweets them out in practice, feeling ko, walang gumagawa noon so Elon Musk opened the fronts or dinalabag niya yung deal niya with the US SEC and recently he petitioned a judge to have that order lifted basically saying na I should be able to tweet whatever the hell I want without anybody censoring or screening me but I think paperwork lang yun e in actuality I can't imagine like based because he said some other stuff also like after that so it's kind of hard to believe that somebody still screens his tweets and I think the SEC has brought it to his attention numerous times na you shouldn't be tweeting things like this and stuff like that even after supposedly may nagbabantay na sa sa tweets niya yeah so Elon is a fascinating character like I don't want to but even before he became super big I was following him mostly because I'm a space nerd and then what he was doing with SpaceX was super fascinating the whole concept of reusable rockets it's like science fiction when you see the Falcon X, the Falcon Heavy their reusable basically booster stages and they touch down fully automated that is amazing brilliant engineering and it took a private company not NASA it took SpaceX to come up with technology like that saves a lot of money in turnaround time fascinating because niya he is willing to take risks he's like okay lang na sumabog yung sampong rockets but you know let's just keep reiterating and doing it better and he had he had he was trying to he was trying to call up rocket scientist left and right and he already had the script memorized na parang robotic I heard an interview with a rocket scientist that he called and he's saying I did get a call from Elon Musk back when early on with SpaceX they were recruiting people and parang sobrang robotic na nung speech niya because he had called so many people and he was like I'm Elon Musk I was one of the founders of PayPal and I have money trying to put up a rocket company are you interested parang ganyan that's sobrang monotonous if you do listen to him he's not that charismatic actually so it's fascinating to see how nagkaroon ng cult of Elon Musk when the man himself at least his public speeches I don't find particularly charismatic it's not like an Obama type of figure na rara and a magnetic kind of personality actually it's like very introvert yung dateng medyo awkward fascinating to see the cult of Elon Musk Elon Musk Elon Musk grow but hats off and you know there are rough edges employees complaining very demanding work environments very dismissive can be kind of a bit of an asshole not as bad as Steve Jobs if you want to talk about asshole bosses Steve Jobs and again it's crazy actually opposite I've never been a big believer in Steve Jobs I always felt he was overrated but 99% of the people out there are still even years after his death Steve Jobs brilliant but for me I can't say that I think yun yung overhype na founder CEO and actually for all of his faults I think really does deserve a lot of credit paypal not so much naka merger yun there were two separate companies kind of working in the nascent or early payment pin tech kind of space that eventually became paypal he was one of the founders of one of those companies and then I can see my daughter in the background okay that is so I'll leave my discussion on why Steve Jobs is overhyped for another time but thanks so much for joining me 1 hour 30 minutes then I'll just leave with Ergobert Ergobert where you Ergobert there so last thought of the night is from Ergobert Russia also forced to rely on crypto ah are they also I guess to stop creation espinoza I guess no Russia is also relying on crypto especially now with the sanctions and baka makot off sila from the international banking system so it did also have the price to go up also both Russia and Ukraine still I don't know I mean is that like a good volume I mean is that a large enough volume anyway stop guys sir thanks for joining us and good night everybody thanks for joining me for another episode of crypto watch yeah if you're a short term trader really interesting time to be trading now just gotta have that fire and you know that gut to to stick with it Mark Lewis I know Daddy Jutis one of the 3 full time jobs that I mentioned earlier we do have a video releasing in an hour like pag patak ng midnight we're gonna be releasing a video desktop tour so I do a tour of my desk the keyboard and the monitor the mouse and then my 3 monitors so please do check that out and yeah in about an hour when it drops and on a monday we have a in the industry for the first time in like a couple of months and it's super fascinating it's a local company that does IT security so they look for loopholes exploits that can be exploited and then they advise companies how they can plug it so information security super interesting especially now where a lot of the the war is also spilling out onto the internet so like a lot of DDOS by the ukrainians and vice versa so info security is very fascinating now so thanks for joining me guys happy friday have a good night stay safe
