 All right, there we go. Sorry, I, good thing I realized early on na walang sound, but while we're waiting for people to, I know you guys are still awake, it's still early for you guys, but while we're waiting for people to show up, we might as well do the ad. Hanapin ang unidus version na gusto mo, piliin ang preferred plate and bento. Wala pang 5 minutes na si zigit na para sa windows mo. Maraming na kaming na tunungan. Dati, 7 depart ako, but now, I'm from a love of my life. Dati, yung lesson walang purtos ang life ko, but now, I'm a world-class Zuba instructor. So, web developer ako and content creator for a YouTube channel, and ngayon ganun pa rin ako, pero activated na yung windows ko. Kayakon naghanap ka ng legit, mura, at original software. Check out cdkoffered.com. All right, so sub Ronnie Gonzalez, I think I just saw your comment. I liked it or I replied to it. Unfortunately, we don't have any freebies at the moment. Check back towards the end of the year. We usually have a ton of freebies, like we gave away a full gaming computer last Christmas, ITX build, Intel Arc, A360 atayon, complete with everything else. And then, usually we also give away some of the items that we received during the year for review. So, since behind the scenes ng ato, you might be wondering what we do with the items that we receive from, so brand-send us items for review. Depending on the item, usually we can sometimes keep the item, so usually the coolers, the PSUs, occasionally cases, yung maganon. Unfortunately, more expensive things like GPUs and monitors we do have to give back. Although it happens, like as some of you know yung sobrang natuwa sa monitor na pinereview sa akin ni ASUS that I ended up buying one for myself. So, that does happen from time to time. SubRail, yep, from Facebook, yes, my friend shared it to me. You can still use a VPN, I gather. So, I mean that's one option. And personally, I'm not super affected because I've never done a lot of trading on Binance. My primary exchange is Kraken with a little bit of Bybit. But I understand it is of course very hassle yun for a lot of users, kasi maraming users, maraming crypto traders sa pinas yung gumagamit ng Binance. I've mentioned in the live streams before that I think the SEC should focus its attention elsewhere. It's not like unlimited resources yung SEC. Maraming pang mas pressing na concerns, I think. I mean even basic things like getting a corporation incorporated, amending the AIO to change the business address, the location which is stated in your article of incorporation, takes such a long time. The backlog in the provinces like even in major cities like Cebu is even worse. So, andayong mga issues, very basic issues na sana tutukan na lang ng SEC instead of running after things like Binance which arguably doesn't do a lot of public harm if at all. So, I've mentioned it before na I think it's a waste of the SEC's time to be running after exchanges like Binance when there are a lot of other things that they could be doing which would be more efficient, which would be more helpful to the public in general. Let me just go through the chat. Glad it's helpful. Glad the videos have been helpful. I think ikaw yung comment dun sa best like 24 building tips for 2024 which yung behind the scenes, I wanted to have that episode up like start of January pero like naging end of January and damning stuff. I mean it's always so the cadence of the videos like the videos you have to push out. It's a little tiring sometimes. Sub-JP, sub-internet. So, behind the scenes let's start out with what I did this month. And well, before we get to the videos here. Oh wait, sub-vigilante gaming. Wait, let's sub. Well, for those of you who don't know, we have a second hand sparts list. The link is in the text description below, in the video description below. And wala kaming kita dun. So we publicize it, we do all of the admin work, we arrange to transfer payment from us because we got a payment initially get sent to the shop, to the owners. And so yung, it's completely, wala kaming cut, wala kaming commission, wala kaming hati dun sa sales. We just really do it because A, it's a service to our customers na they might be able to get a better price in our second hand marketplace. And it works both ways. We've never had a problem actually. We've never had a problem with any of the buyers, with any of the sellers. Like yung mga items kasi usually either galing sa amin or galing sa labas but we trust to list on the second hand parts list you need to be a customer of hardware sugar. And we trust our customers. Kahit hindi galing sa amin yung product. It's never been a problem because the items that do get listed are high quality. We trust our customers. It's a lot of admin work. We store the item para one stop shop na kami. Like if the potential buyer wants to see it, he just has to go to the shop or we can send him pictures. Basically tambak mo lang yung items sa amin, we'll take care of the rest. The posting, communicating with potential buyers processing payment and things like that. So A, it's a service we provide to our customers. Just like a small way of saying thank you. May, you know, makatulong din yung you're selling your second hand parts. You get money in exchange for them. I mean, makatulong rin sa budget. And B, it's really trying to prevent more e-waste. Our hobby is pretty cool but at the same time, it's also bad for the environment na you have to keep upgrading every two years, three years, four years and e-waste is only becoming more and more of a problem. So that's why we do the second hand parts list. But I've always wanted to come up with a different name. Like second hand parts list sounds so, I mean, it's descriptive but it doesn't sound exciting. Parang, we could come up with a different name. Thank you, vigilante gaming. Eves, I got my first AM5 build and activated it using your promo code. Thank you for using the promo code. Thank you for supporting our sponsor. And again, it's like that sponsor is legit. We've used them for years, yung mga windows activation keys that we use for our customers in the shop galing din sa CD key. We've brought hundreds of keys from them. We regularly buy from them up to now. So legit na legit yung CD key. And that's why I like having them as a regular sponsor because maasahan ko, like hindi ako mahiya sa inyo to recommend it. And to be honest, we've had other types like that. We've had other companies na ganon yung selling digital activation keys approach us and say na whatever you're, they'll be like, we want to advertise with you. And I'm like, well, we can't because we already have an exclusive agreement na product with this company CD key. And they're like, we're willing to increase the, whatever they're paying you will increase it. But I've always been, ayoko na lumipad even if they pay me more. Kasi yung nga, alam ko from personal experience maasahan yung CD key and di ko raman alam tong iba. I mean, I can just get my money. I can just receive payment and bahala na kung legit pa talaga sila. But that's not how we do our business. And also babalik rin yun e. I mean in the form of karma or just in the form of people saying in the comments na hindi okay. And especially for the YouTube channel and especially for the shop, our currency really is knowledge that we know what we're talking about in terms of computers, but also trust. The trust of the audience, the trust of the customer na di, you know, hindi ka may mandaloko, hindi ka may scammer. So I'm very happy to still be with CD key and we use their service all the time. Really. Sop, Arvick. Sop, Luigi will wake up. Pinawawa, Luigi. Usually I see you in the stream, sir. But I've noticed the last few streams. Like, pili ko bad timing lang. Like you're not around. Like maybe you're out on a Friday or something. But nice to see you, man. Lian Lee vs. Corsair SFX PSU. Ah, Corsair pa rin. It's a bit pricey here, but actually nung pandemic and it was really hard to find SFX PSUs. Nasisera na ako ng ulo. Looking for, like, sino ba may SFX PSU? So pinatulan ko rin yung Lian Lee. I don't remember any RMA issues. But just in general, like, I would feel better personally with a Corsair. Especially kung ITX. Medyo maselan yung ITX. Sop, ITX, Adik. Another one. I'll just commenting to Luigi na usually I see Luigi in the chat but I haven't seen him in chat lately. And same with ITX, Adik. But of course, ITX, Adik is also very active in the comments. I see those comments a lot. JP, i-benta ko na yung system unit ko para makapag-upgrade. Second hand parts list. There you go. All right. So I'll just briefly run through, like, the content we did for this month. We'll answer Peho first. Sounds like... Sop RJ can. I will pass it on to Domer. For Peho, there's a buzzing that's usually PSU Coil Wine. It just naturally happens. I know it's kind of annoying. It just naturally occurs. It doesn't mean that your PSU is failing necessarily. If it's minor, you can just observe it kung lumalasha. But yeah, there is PSU Coil Wine or PSU... Sorry, PSU Coil Wine or GPU Coil Wine. I think my mic filtered it out but my son in the back just stuck his head out of the door and said, Daddy. So, like, the gula to. So I wouldn't worry about it to be honest. If it doesn't bother you, then it's perfectly fine. You can keep going as is. It's kind of difficult actually to get rid of Coil Wine. It's just one of those things. It's kind of annoying. But the way I look at it is, especially if you're gaming a lot, parang hindi mo nang papansin yan amidst all of the explosions and, you know, the gunfire and things like that. I'm assuming you're playing these kind of like shooter games but are kind of League of Legends or Valorant or things like that. But basically, I'm saying is if you're using the computer regularly, for most of the things gamers use computers for, I don't think a little Coil Wine will really affect things. I will pass it on, RJ Kan, to Domer. Domer does good work. And the HX Low is nice. It's a good case. For me, and actually I'm dropping, like, the whole day today I was just editing a video and one of the topics of that video actually deals with this. For me, I still prefer the wired connection for my desktop. You know, Wi-Fi is nice but at the end of the day kung kaya naman nung wired physical connection, I still prefer that. It's more reliable. It's so easy to plug it in. You know, just plug it into the LAN port and then into the router. Mas madali lang talaga. Thanks, man. It's nice na... It's nice that... it's helpful. But you know, we do... I regularly see the items that get sold. So marami rin na ba benta sa ano through our second hand's parts list. Bakit nga hangang PC pag na bubonggo ko yung system unit ng accidente? If you still have a hard drive, you could take... It's possible that the jarring causes the hard drive to skip and that's not... That's really not good for the hard drive or there's a loose wire that comes loose and then comes back on when you hit it, as medyo na aalog siya. You could also try the PSU connection in the back. So just these kind of basic things. But in general, I would... I would refrain from hitting the... or even accidentally hitting your computer. My initial suspect na would be like a hard drive because there's... a hard drive has an actual physical thing spinning inside it. And so kung... na, you know, if you shake it, na... na... the plate can get knocked out... di ma-knocked out of place, but yung nga parang it's not reading... it wouldn't be reading properly anymore. It kinda like skips. So and you generally don't want that because that's really bad for the hard drive. So I mean, but that could be one explanation. Ah, okay. So it's possible. But that's really bad for the hard drive. I... I wouldn't... I would refrain from from hitting that kung ka dun. I mean, baka hindi rin securely fashioned securely fastened yung hard drive mo sa loob. But yeah, you generally don't want... that can... that will... that can lead to hard disk failure. Lan, as I.T.X. Adik also mentioned baka loose mobile connector somewhere. As for stuff, 850W PSU, I can see it going the distance. Yup. Really depends, but, you know, good... usually like the... the brand of RAM, G-Skill is popular, Rip Jaws, Trident, Trident, if you want their RGB variant, Team Group is also pretty good for RAM. Kingston has medyo mura. Okay naman siya. Like, I'm not a big fan. But okay naman siya. For, you know, to be honest, the RAM, as long as it's a reputable brand, it's more about... it's... more about the aesthetics. Actually, gamit ko ngayon yung... Team Group. Ah wait, lemme just check ka. Yup. My personal RAM on my desktop is, I forgot already, is Team Group. I like Team Group because they're generally cheaper than the competition, but they are very good quality, both for SSD and for RAM. So, I will just go through the videos a little bit. This was our podcast episode, which kicked off the month. It was about a program in Sileman University where they trained oldies how to use basic tech. I thought it was a super interesting program. Just like Trivia, this is my actual Lola on the thumbnail. She passed away a long time ago. Maybe di naman ten years, but maybe like eight years or so ago. So, she definitely did not see the start of the YouTube channel. Probably wouldn't have understood what this whole YouTube thing was. But my Lola was a little... my Lola was a socialite, like in the old school sense of the term, like back in the 60s and things like that. So, I think she would approve of me using her picture on a thumbnail that says wala ka sa Lola ko and she's kind of glammed up. So, she passed away at her death anniversary coming up, actually April 1. She passed away on April Fool's Day. Yeah, maybe eight, ten years ago. Medyo matagal na. But I would like to think that she would approve of me using her image on a thumbnail, like for this ba? For this particular topic. And in this one who gets axed, is actually like a long time ago. Like six months ago, eight months ago patong na shot yung primary footage for this, but we only got around to it now. Spoiler alert, it's kind of clickbait kasi neither got fired, both got hired. So, we got both Domer and Markey. So, the concept for this video was that we were testing them like, who would have the best cable management and PC assembly and things like that Although if you see in the latest shirts like Jay is not back working at the shop, but he just occasionally pops up in the content pa rin. And so we were wondering who should we who should we get? We narrowed down the field to Domer and Markey. But yun na, it is it's not really accurate kasi nobody got axed and both got hired and both are doing well at the shop. And then three generations of Fitbit I'm using my charge six now. When I do wearable content on the channel, it doesn't really do well, pero I like doing it kasi I am a fan of basic wearable so I've been using Fitbit for maybe the past two years or so and I did use all of them extensively four, five and six so I thought it was natural kind of review thing. The way I look at those wearable reviews can I just I don't know if you can see it sorry, let me let me make this one bigger first. You can see the it's an ice ball I actually got a mold para yung yellow ko yung pang shot yung it's like a solid solid ball of ice and I think it it melts well the whole point of having it in a ball for drinks like yung mga whiskey yung mga gano straight up on the rocks is that it's an even cooling dispersion it has more surface area I think than a than a square so you're getting even cooling of the liquid I think it also melts slower like just on an anecdotal level wala lang like super trivia So okay getting back to things my thing about doing wearable content is that I feel like it's more seeds for the future I have noticed the way the like the channel works is that we started doing for example we started doing reviews about monitors and then napansin ng mga brands that our monitor reviews do well and then they start offering as monitors and then para snowball na siya same with coolers and things like that So if you kind of if you want to get more of a certain product oh I want to review wearables you need to start reviewing them I mean it sounds like a chicken and egg kind of thing but start out slow and even if your initial videos wala masyadong audience views at least the algorithm knows it's there people are searching especially for something like this na it's a comparison of three generations charge four charge five charge six it's a natural question you have a charge five and you're wondering what's the difference between the charge six so it's like I'm laying a seed hopefully for future content because I do I am fascinated by wearables all of the data that you can get from them and the push to be healthier like I've actually emailed like ultra human if I could review their ring but they haven't gotten back to me so still I still need to plant more seeds regarding wearables and speaking of content that kind of just snowballed we started with like air coolers and then AIO reviews and then it just kind of naturally snowballed from there it's a deep cool regularly sends us coolers for reviews so does ASOS this one was a like the focus was supposed to be on the zero dark the LS 720 SE zero dark but I was like you know to make it more interesting let's put it up against other 360 mm rad AIOs plus as so we have we actually have in the shop other variants of the LS 720 SE so deep cool send it over the zero dark version but they also sent as previously the LS 720 SE which is the base version and then the LS 720 SE digital so we had those three LS 720 SE variants and then yung kicker was that we throw in the latest and greatest Mystique 360 of which will do a full review video pretty soon hopefully by next week but we've done a lot of these deep cool shoot out videos I mean yung just like aka 400 versus 500 versus 620 so just like the different tears of the deep cool products and then we compare them and the views are not like super spectacular but they do good traffic in the long run because of the searches so it does find an audience ultimately with people who are searching for like oh I want to know about this particular cooler tapos or like oh how does the LS 720 compare to the LS 720 SE parang ganon and a lot of the search traffic is from abroad so 60% of hardware sugars traffic viewership is Filipino is from the Philippines 40% is foreign and that is a wild statistic usually for a Philippine tech channel it's more like 99% Filipino viewership 1% international audience so having a 60-40 split is pretty unheard of so we do I like that we can appeal to two different audiences the local and the foreign it's a bit difficult sometimes especially when the team is a little tamad I'm gonna call out the team here paminsan ako din you know to put captions on the content but we do get called out a lot by the foreign audience like what language is this why did you have English title and English thumbnail but then when I click on it wala ako maintindihan sayo so it's been our policy since last year na I will mix it up I will put in tagalog just as a to make the local audience more comfortable to make it easier to just yung parang mas nagusap lang tayo para makabarkada but at the same time when I do throw in some tagalog I make sure that there are subtitles it has been difficult for the team because subtitles are real pain in the ass to put like we hard code them into the video so they are a bit difficult but I think it's worth the effort Kamal Joe baka mo FW puwede rin but in the comments you can really see like they're like legit foreigners like some like di o nakagulat may makakokoment in Spanish may makakokoment in Russian sometimes and it'll really call me out like what language are you speaking I can't understand you I mean usap parang ganoon I mean in the comments there is a there is a largeish minority and I know that's an oxymoron but you know there's a sizable minority of that watches our content mostly na for those kind of review videos the deep cool ones the asus ones because sometimes we get items from asus that aren't available yet abroad and the same for deep cool so that's what I'm that's my intention with the Fitbit thing was hopefully to try to get the ball rolling for wearable content and then this is just really more of the same where we we have a system in place already how to review coolers and things like that the basic format is already there but I think you know we can always still do better here is crypto content that nobody watched it's like a hundred plus views only not that great but like it's a concluding video in my crypto trilogy crypto content doesn't actually do well on the channel but you know it's something I've been interested in for a long time that I'm still very much active in now and I think it's just a little it's well you know like yung channel kasi parang supposedly you have to be laser focused like kung tech channel ka nilang pwede tech like kung PC ka talagang PC and it's not just like general PC stuff if you're a building channel puro build videos lang but I've never you know kasi it helps the algorithm it helps your audience to understand what they're getting but I've never been like a fan of that like I find that boring so the channel is very idiosyncratic I mean pa iba iba yung content niya and having occasional crypto content yeah that's part of it subliver spread sorry guys I'll just get through the I'll just get through the comment I'll just get through the videos and then I'll go through chat oh this video actually is has not been released yet to the public it's still coming out tomorrow it's the review of the cc 360 from deep cool case it's actually a very nice looking case rockin the programmer is the one who did this review it's been up for members since yesterday yeah since yesterday we're going to release it to the public tomorrow so just a shout out to the members who are watching thank you so much and one of the side benefits the fringe benefits if you're a member is that all of our videos you get to watch them before they're released to the public I really try as much as possible to give as much time for the members to view the videos but again with the release schedule sometimes it's only a couple of hours then it goes public but as much as possible I really try to get them up as soon as possible so that the members can at least have a exclusive access to the content first before it goes to the public we're not always like 100% sorry I saw the comment from liver spread I hope I hope you win the bet yeah it's I really try to get the videos up as soon as possible but sometimes it's not possible because of the you know we are constantly editing rena is constantly editing I'm constantly editing again it's the release space the cadence of the videos but we really try it I feel every time we don't get to do that like at least one day exclusive to the members I feel it's a failing on my part I really try to be serious about that because I really do appreciate the membership sobran lakin tulong kind of regular income per month and it's just it's crazy to me that people would put a monthly thing I mean you can get all of the content a month for free right but it's just really like you want to support the channel so the benefits I really try to make sure na matupad sila so yeah this is still a member exclusive but it will be released to the public tomorrow this one is our best performing video and I'm like nainayin ako it's like 5100 views now I released it yesterday yes yesterday and it's it's a standard price watch episode price watch is the monthly video that we do we've been tracking the prices from the top the four largest PC retail stores in the country since 2022 so every month we take a look at the pricing of the exact same models para we can get a general sense in the market it's going up or down and then I'm a little ashamed this video is doing well I mean I'm happy it's doing well 5000 views or so for a price watch episode is pretty good but I think it's indicative na we haven't been generating a lot of content na yung talagang buzzy yung talagang pinapanod na mga tao I mean like 5000 views is good but I wish like the other videos that we did this month approached that number and they didn't even like the review video of Deep Cool which I thought was well edited I mean it's kind of like the standard review video I would have maybe guessed like at least 1000 after a week but after a week it's only it's over 600 so not that great I try not to get to obsess about the numbers and things like that but at the same time you want to see a viewership at a regular number so that you know that the audience still finds irrelevant that what you're doing is still interesting so I do worry about that oh sub moniker sub kale and keel good to see you again guys so I do worry sometimes the viewing numbers like I did a video end of January top 24 building tips for 2024 that was a sequel to the one we did last year top 23 building tips for 2023 which really did really well over the course of the year but itong 24 build tips didn't really make that big of a splash and generally that's an irritation with me like I'm frustrated now we our video so far this year haven't made that big a splash the value is still there like in the price the price watch episodes I like doing them because they really provide value to the viewer you don't need to be a hardware sugar but customer but if you're thinking of buying that data is always available on the Google Sheet 24-7 it's up even if we haven't done an episode yet for that month the entire time the data is there so I really think it's good value for a viewer but generally it doesn't do that great 3,000 views or so but now like I think our videos have value it's just that we need to edit them a bit better like the pacing and things like that so like just as an example for this one like if you watch this video sorry let's this is the latest video we have and then so I edited this video usually I'm like I have a very my stock intro for a price watch episode is it's quick cuts and all I'm saying is like if you're going to buy a PC part cut you should look at silo may pinakamura cut and we do that for you we surveyed the four largest cuts so it's like super fast cuts and then the CD key add and then me just talking to the camera and with my Google Excel my Google Sheet but for this one I really mix it up a little bit so just to walk you through it you can't hear the sound but I started it with like so there's music already I'm tilted away from the camera then I look at the camera and I say na price updates in 15 seconds go and then 40 seconds and then may number one there's music there's a timer and this format actually I've used before for my other reviews and so it's a stock format like naka-saved na sa Davin Chico so it's I wouldn't say it's easy but at least it's more straightforward for me to use the cuts for the music and then the text and then the timer like I don't need to set all of that up from scratch and then I can put in the bureau that I want and then I can do the voiceover that I want so this is like a deliberate attempt to make it an easier a more enticing way to bring the audience and I'm happy that yun na it was it's like 5100 views after a day that is very good for a price watch episode and if you look at the episode we're going to drop on Friday hopefully I'm like three-fourths done with the edit I also start out with the same format so camera like just shooting me and then there's a I'm tilted to the screen and I look up and then I say na you know the problem with PC like super fast the problem with PC building is that there's so many options don't you just wish that somebody would tell you what to do 20 seconds that's what I'm going to do then cut and then it's like this format na there's music and then there's a lot of quick cuts so oh actually here let me let me here's a sneak peak or a sneak preview of the video that I will hopefully be dropping on Friday and it's exactly the same so let me bring it up on the screen so that I can show you guys yeah editing is like a super big part of the process so unfortunately you can't hear the sound but so here here it goes so it's going to play so I'm talking to the camera I'm talking in Tagalog but again as I mentioned whenever I speak Tagalog there's always English subtitles for the foreign audience so quick cuts then you can see the timer so I go through the actual that kind of pack very quick cut sequence to the music and then I this is an introduction this was supposed to be my introduction to this video but I decided to go na with that very like preview of what you're going to watch very fast very snappy with a timer and then even this intro like sobra kung can knock down and then I say things like you know if you're doing if you're into the PC space there's one thing you can't avoid and then I cut and then there's this sequence that we shot for an episode for a video last year this is the top five building tips in 2020 sorry top five building mistakes in 2023 I have a little segment where konwaren I'm like getting mad we're playing characters me and Rocky the programmer and he's like so what do you think of hardware sugar and I'm like blok yung shop na yan and then the skit starts out with walang alam yung shop na yan where did you saan mo mo nahanap yan and then Rocky the programmer is like on YouTube and then my character is like say YouTube pat ka po punta sa YouTube for advice which is you know it's kind of like ironic right because you're watching the audience is watching a YouTube video so this entire intro is less than a minute and then we cut when then we go to the CDK ad the super crucial audience attention span is just harder and harder to catch so I'm really it sounds like I was actively trying to think of ways to make it more interesting at the start but I've always loved that format that we did the PG48 UQ video you can also see that format already yung parang very fast voice over and then with a timer and then the intro so like for price watch I didn't mean to like that wasn't a plan at the start but it just kind of fell into place like okay fine I'll do it like that like yung na just off the top of my head I was trying to figure out how to make the episode interesting and then for this particular video same I didn't I wasn't thinking of actually doing the format but then it worked out so well in price watch tapos kaya naman but I love how and please let me know if you're watching now and then if when you watch the video please do watch the video on Friday parang sobrang compelling like so it's like yung na this whole sequence naman usually mabilis kasi I mean compelling kasi mabilis you backpack pack the cuts and then here it's like if you're into PC there's something you can't escape so there's already like a hook and then me jump to a skit which I think is ironically funny and then and then I explained like the one thing you can't avoid are people's opinions about hardware and it's like super fast and then cut and then after that the episode the video is very straightforward so I talk about things like so basically these are my opinions about PC building like wireless is the way to go wireless wireless mouse I would wireless my keyboard soon anything that wireless pwede PSU Corsair is nice expensive go with something else AIO versus air I'm more of an air guy so things like that like my personal preferences for CPU, AMD for GPU and Vidya so the video is straightforward after that but initial 50 seconds there's like a whole ton of things going on here this is already pre-rendered so you can't you can't see wait let me pull it up so this is actually what that sequence just looks like so you have the music sorry you have the music down here this is my voice over but these are so if you're not familiar with video editing it's basically just a lot of layering so this is the main video that you're seeing you notice how many cuts I had to go through here so the first one PSU so I have a B-roll of a C-Sonic PSU somebody's turning it on that's like 2 seconds worth of content but slot that in there this one is actually 3 different eh, I'll show you so this is one of those squares that you see and the other two are on top that's 2 and that's 3 so these are actually 3 different videos that I put together in one screen since naka-shoot naman sila in landscape mode so sorry this is like super behind the scenes like super nitty gritty how much video that's not even out yet and that's super fast and then like and then again again and then cut again and cut again so yeah I hope this video does well I'd like to this is a long-winded long-winded way of saying I would like the videos to do better and I am experimenting like I've jettised on the whatsapp internet line like I don't I haven't used it as much in the past few videos so yeah just experiment with little things I really think like the beginning is super important and it's kinda silly to say it in 2024 right every youtuber every youtube advice is like of course you need to have super sticky content sa simula and stuff but I'm really happy the way the price watch episode came out and the opening for this new video which will be released on Friday so hopefully we can continue that trend alright I'll go through the chat a little bit that's pretty much it actually for so that was our the price watch in the latest video and then this one is for for members but it'll be out to the public tomorrow for the shorts we have Jay in these two last shorts that we did this one I did not a looker but a great fighter not this mouse but a mouse very similar to it from ROG the softest key so that's also an ROG keyboard that they lent to us for review sorry, I don't there's actually members exclusive pala like the ROG Falcon Rx low profile I don't quite know why so like this is members only this is public but as far as I know they're the same content I'm not quite sure what happened there rockin programmer had a short and this is the first short we did for for the month I do want to point out that we do have a tiktok so we do have tiktok and I tried to post our shorts there and our most popular tiktok cost like 40,000 where is it ayaw yeah so this one has 48,700 views and it's just like a straight forward SSD review but sometimes they do well like I'm particularly proud of this what's the big problem with ultra wides which we also posted on YouTube so that's 4,500 views I think that's very decent this one the epic games one this is around December 8,000 views so trying to sort of figure out the best way to do these short videos and of course the live streams after this one I will be doing one live from the shop I think maybe Thursday I am supposed to do it tomorrow since we're closed already for the holy week Wednesday, Thursday, Friday we'll be opening on Saturday, Sunday I do try to do live from the shop when there's nobody there so when it's no class when there's no work so I'll probably be doing it Thursday holy Thursday our lives are usually we have set topics already it's rare that we do like a spontaneous kind of live na let's just talk about whatever so we have pwede magtanong then I have my four game streams and then crypto watch once a month and then hardware sugar acts or hardware sugar behind the scenes and then finally live from the shop so that's about it for that for this month but please do check out the live stream on Thursday then we actually have two more videos the video that I gave you a preview of my personal preferences when PC building and that includes brands and also the factory tour of deep cool so at the start of this month deep cool very kindly very generously flew me to China and we stayed there for a couple of days so I was with different content creators as well as owners of various PC shops and it was really like an all access and we were there for the factory tour so they allowed they toured us through their factory it was all access like literally at one point there was a big sign that said no cameras and then one of our group asked our tour guide like so we can't shoot here and then he was like no because he was like the head of the factory was like no it's okay here with me so like legit behind the scenes like sobrang like nothing you could literally go up to the machines and see how they work and if you're not careful like you could stick your hand in there like whether it's the cutting machine or the rolling machine wala ka lang kumay pag atapos doon so you know I'm glad I didn't contribute to the health workplace hazard issues I mean everything was very safe naman but I was honestly amazed by the level of access we had during that factory tour yung so close nga talaga that if you were an idiot or you're doing it on purpose and you stuck your hand in there you could get hurt like literally you were beside the machines that pump out the coolers and the AIOs and things like that so it was very and for someone like me who has been a fan of computers for so long since I was a kid we got our first computer 486 wala pang CD-ROM noon or you know I still experienced installing games from floppy drives di paraman like umabataw sa floppy but naka-computer na kami yung 3.5 inch naman na matigas na but you know I've been interested in computers for a long time and to be in a place where all of these components that we're so used to seeing packaged and complete and everything and seeing how they're actually made it really it really blew my mind and very thankful to Deepcool for that experience so the factory tour video hopefully will come out maybe like Sunday or something I still have not figured out how to make the beginning of that like yung may hook talaga na you know will drag people in but don't worry like hopefully something will come out of my noggin and Deepcool again yung I was very generous like the reason the only reason I was there was sort of the factory tour but basically that was like one afternoon stretching into evening kasi may dinner pabokitapos and then the rest of the week like Monday to Friday it was like tour here, tour there pagkain dito, pagkain dun and all expenses paid so it's really it's um I it was a very good experience and China we have our problems with China like basically their boats blasting our boats to kingdom come using water cannons actually I saw an interesting video on YouTube detailing the Chinese coast guard vessels and they are actually these ships are yung mongos hindi sila pang karaniwan na coast guard like the tonnage like 10,000 tons for comparison the US Navy has ships which are smaller than the coast guard than the Chinese coast guard ships like the like these are the the mainstays of the US Navy like the Arleigh Burke class which is only like 8,000 tons so the Chinese coast guard has like 10,000 tons ships patrolling our seas and shooting at our boats with water so we do have our issues with China don't get me wrong but I thoroughly enjoyed my visit there and everything is so modern there I was really like super impressed because I had gone to China maybe like 20 years ago and my impression was like you know developing and the people are not so accommodating and it's kind of like siksikan it's like manila right I mean you know you know that kind of vibe but then 20 years later it's like holy Jesus it's like everything is so advanced the cars the cars on the road walang sinabi mga susakin natin dito they have brands they have these really flashy looking cars that we don't have access to so it's very much a developed nation something I didn't appreciate like just how much it has changed since the last time I was there so yeah thank you to Deepcool hopefully we'll get the factory tour video out by the end of the week I'm just gonna go through the chat and then I'm gonna say goodnight because it is almost my bedtime I don't brand yung flat monitor in front the monitor in front of me you can't see it from the angle but this is the PG48UQ it's an OLED monitor from ROG I love this monitor I love the quality pinadala sa akin to for review but I had to give it back so I loved it so much nandung lumabas sa market minilikwa talaga siya on my right you also can't see it but I have an old view sonic gaming monitor one of my old primary gaming monitors na naka portrait and then I used that for chat yung slack this one is an old BenQ EX2780Q another gaming monitor that I now use as a secondary monitor you'll notice that there are lines here because this is not actually my monitor a customer bought the same exact model from the shop and then two years later she was like it's developing these black lines is there anything we can do unfortunately we can't because it's out of warranty but I had the exact same model na ginagamit ko exactly like this na underhand underhand sling as a secondary monitor I told the customer I have the same monitor there are no issues it is second hand because it's coming from me but I'm the only one to use it I will give you my monitor so that you can use it walang line sa git na and then I will just use your monitor since secondary lang naman to be honest the black lines are a pain in the ass sometimes but that's really how we are at Hardware Sugar like inya not to you know nag-bubohat ng sariling bangko but that's really what we live by like what can we do to make the customer happy no obligation lampas na yung sa shop warranty lampas na yung sa brand warranty even we don't think in terms of like that na oh lampas na wala off the hook na kami we think in terms of how can we help the customer and I frequently tell the story kasi sinambay yung na perwysyo hindi yung mga tao sa shop not my staff in the shop not the customer ako I used to set up everyday and the black lines are a little annoying but again it was her primary monitor as a primary monitor this would be terrible as a secondary sige I can live with it so again yung inya that's what that's camel jo that is how we we really approach customer service here at Hardware Sugar I can't help it guys I can't help it okay you know naman how much I love my PG48UQ that being said ASUS did send over at the start of the year I think the PG49WCD basically like the PG48UQ pero ultra wide they had a term for it ultra wide or something it's 49 inches OLED oh that's also a beautiful monitor to be honest if I didn't buy my OLED the PG48UQ in front of me now nasubukan ko yung dalawa I might be tempted with the PG49WCD kasi ang ganda lang yung wrap around effect niya you know the curve it makes it feel more immersive but I still love my PG48UQ okay, I'll just go to the chat guys yes, nice to see you again Luigi and of course ITX adic our cleaning is excellent false modesty aside our cleaning is excellent and if you're a Hardware Sugar customer you get a discount on our cleaning service super delayed man super delayed and I had to apparently it was really hard to edit Ren was the one who edited that so I think they were kind of pushing it back and pushing it back until I'm like okay we need content we have this all of this footage you know let's just double you know let's sit down and finish it like you know Rocky the programmer shot A-roll Ren got to work editing and we finally pushed out that video this was an interesting question they have to heat up the motherboard using air dryer to be honest I've never had that experience but I do know ITX adic has had that issue without no spoilers but ITX adic lives near the sea and so the air there's a lot more salt in the air and it's true we've seen some stuff from him you can really see the rust the corrosion damage I know right like look at this like it's still pretty much I mean it's volume has diminished but oh sub mark louis it's volume has diminished but the fact that it's still intact you know says something I think R5-3600 go for a 4060 if you want to save up a little bit maybe a 6600 XT I forget the exact pricing in video cards oh no or the 7000 series if you're an AMD fan but for me like mid level and R5-3600 to be fair still mid level for gaming I mean it's the 3000 series of AMD so there's already a 5000 the last of the M4 and then 7000 the first of the M5 but an R5-3600 is you know it's still very decent and I would just pair it with 4060 and yeah I mean not worry about it that's perfectly fine you'll have some people say bottleneck bottleneck but um not to rehash the whole bottleneck topic again but basically 4060 with an R5-3600 is more than fine for both the CPU and the GPU and for the kind of games that you know I would expect you to be playing on R5-3600 very until very recently my own rig was also 3000 series R7-3700X but last Christmas I finally upgraded to an R9-5900 and my editing workflow is much smoother the playback so really good I am very happy with the upgrade I didn't need it for gaming you know R9-5900 kind of overkill if kung purely for gaming lang I would have gone with the X3D 5800 X3D pero yung nga I wanted the extra course for editing and the playback is so much smoother now I I I do not know about the hair dryer thing I hope you win the bet um I mean it's not even like so there's there's a channel there's managing the store there's handling the finances of the store making sure people get paid and it's just like my work life my personal life like my kids are young one and three so and ako rin yung madalas nag-hatid sundo sa kanala I also teach at the college level I'm teaching two classes of marketing now um at my alma mater so there's a there's a there's a heck of a lot of things pressing on my time but and sometimes I wish I had more time just to play games like like I have a gaming rig I don't get to play a lot or read as much as I would like to read or watch as much as I would like to watch but at the end of the day there's a lot of things that I'm doing um like to be honest I don't enjoy shooting that much like whether it's coming with a script or an outline that's very time intensive and then just setting up I usually shoot here in my home office just setting up the the light and then the usual I mean I already know where everything goes but just setting up tinatama daho and then every time when you start out with an edit of a video it's like oh my god there's so much a-roll and I need to put in b-roll and oh my god I'm so boring oh my god I don't know why anybody watch this but like at the end of the edit where you've done some things that you think are clever that's when that's what I like doing and so basically like I don't really have an answer to this other than the fact that I'm enjoying most of the things I'm doing or at least the end product of them and that's enough to get me through the day and to be honest sometimes I just really veg out like I'm super tamad like I can't oh god I don't want to do another edit oh I don't want to shoot another review video so I allow myself just like a wee bit of time to and I'm talking about like an afternoon like an afternoon time na I don't edit I'm just playing a game watching a movie or reading a book yeah so like short breaks yeah nothing revolutionary it's really I enjoy what I'm doing at the end of the day whether that's you know thank you to my kids having some smarmy edit so enjoy pa naman pagod pero enjoy stop moniker stop kill and kill thank you Ronnie I have not we had one from ASOS like during the pandemic they send it over for review maybe like two three years ago but it was my brother Rafael who reviewed that nook or that small PC yep thank you Luigi I know we can count on you hardware sure hw sugar I think at hw sugar sa tiktok hw sugar it was very generous of deep cool and by like like just to di naman flex but just to share this is a second chip that deep cool organized na like that factory tour and then kind of like tour around China or the the area the first one was last year and they also invited me last year but I couldn't go because I was just super busy with my kids and Rafael had just left to go study so the transition between having him to rely on versus like ako na mag-isa take care of everything medyo mahirap at the time so I begged off but I really regretted begging off last year so when the opportunity came this year to go on the deep cool factory tour I was like yes, I will make the time because like yun nga parang it seems so interesting to me and the end result was even actually more interesting just in terms of like seeing the factory but also seeing China and just meeting people like I so I met Bermor from Bermor Tech Zone from the YouTube channel and we got along very well actually roommates kami atami pa daw from ECPC I bet a bunch of other PC shop owners so it was a very friendly group and I really had a you know I had a good time so I that was a very enjoyable trip I regret nothing PG 49 WCD beautiful beautiful monitor thank you for watching from Oman Noreen sub Mark Lewis we had a video about this actually ah you know it's one of the you look up you go to the channel here here here I'll show you sorry let me let me put the screen back on you go to the channel because we do have a video about this like we're the only crazy PC shop that gives advice how to set up a PC shop or like we're giving advice how to set up our competitors so you go to the channel you go to the milestones it's one of the it's one of the lists yeah milestones and then click that and then itong ito I own a computer shop and these are my secrets 80,000 subscriber special most of yeah like those would be my tips to starting a PC shop I own a PC shop here are my secrets I have not I have not I really want to I love the horizon zero don I know that horizon forbidden west has been ported I have not I have not and it it's breaking me man because I really really love horizon zero don but I haven't gotten around to forbidden west yet I don't see them as separate so they're just one kid really because it's like really everything the shop does can be content and then everything the channel does is in support of the shop not because we try to push things to sell on the channel but just because if we do good content we get known in the space that parang may alam naman sa computer he explains it in non-jargony way approachable that's really good for the shop that free publicity right there that's maybe how we get like 90% of our our new customers so in my mind they're not separate they're just one entity at this point kasi like Lainos of course like he has his channel and he's really like focus on video production ako naman I have my shop and then we have the channel it's really just they're if not the same entity at the most they're twins like they're very similar they're very connected and what's good for one is usually good for the other well I got to pump out two more videos and one more live stream but I do have a plan in numan with the boys with my barkada from high school this Saturday so I'm looking forward to that and basically just like chilling with the children and maybe getting more gaming time like that's the one that's really suffered the most my gaming time I need to get I would love to finish I haven't even finished phantom liberty yet may I should really finish that soon Sir Tom is very is very down to earth very knowledgeable and I had a really good time with him just yun yung masaya sa deep cool tour since we were all in the PC space parang like it it was very easy for people to relate to each other just linolo ko nga si Tom to go to customer service linolo ko rin nga ako but our customer service and you know sometimes customer is just like oh man and it's very easy to relate especially with Tom and myself server more kasi parehoy we both have YouTube channels kind of like involved in computer retail also of course he has way more subscribers than me and if you're not subscribed to him you should very knowledgeable very informative I think it's around 220,000 subs I think the most number of subs for an active PC channel in the Philippines ano, I think XTNC probably has more so after XTN I think it would be Bermortec Zone and malayong malayo pa tayo at like 120,000 subs di ka ron pangarap habulin sila but he has very good content actually even before I met him like matagal ko nang sinusundan si Bermortec Zone and we even had a live stream once like during the pandemic I remember we were doing a live stream and then suddenly he popped up in chat so so that was nice and then even we had never met each other before the trip but sa airport pa lang like talagang linapitan ko siya to introduce myself and say you know I'm a big fan I love your content and it was really like super sobrang sobrang saya ka sa masi Tom yung yam roommates pa nga kami thank you, thank you thank you for watching please do watch the one that's coming on Friday and then on Sunday too Maynard mesh side panel versus glass side panel basically it's just the heat right sorry so fine heat and aesthetic so with the mesh you get a better cooling because more air can flow into the case versus a glass side panel aesthetics though obviously the glass side panel will be a lot clearer to see the inside of the case pero for me I actually like the mesh side panel aesthetic especially if you have RGB in there na ka cut up yung light so it's kind of like because it's a little pixelated and I enjoy the kind of aesthetic I mean maganda rin naman if you can see inside your case but if you want a little more distinctive performance oriented but it can still look good the mesh side panel cases yun and yung ako personally I love seeing RGB or just lighting in general peaking out of either the front grill or yung ya the mesh wherever the mesh is whether it's the side on top or something like that I think it's a more interesting look than just straight up RGB a lot of the time ya so that's a basic consideration mesh versus glass I mean especially for a lot of the bigger cases MATX, ATX cases you'll usually come with a glass side panel because since it is larger there's more volume of air to dissipate the heat into kung ATX yun talaga you really need to worry about the heat I would go they call it the mesh side panel or the vented panel whichever brand you're getting from but with an ATX case I would probably recommend the mesh side panel if that is an option just because ATX builds generally build up a lot of heat faster kasi yung ya ang late ng space so the volume the air volume which the heat can dissipate into is quite small so mabilis ma saturate mabilis uminit and then ya there's no way to get it out Sa play ang magnaye where are you off to early early early early holy week break Childproof build nasiirak sa nana ko monitor at cell phone nung binatoy niya yung CP sa monitor cell phone sa monitor grave naman yun actually my cell phone medyo like you can see it ah there there the edges on mine are cracked also because my son dropped it so dito sa dito sa sides unfortunately oh freaker ah unfortunately I don't have I don't have a childproof build man sorry I mean if I understand like my kids is 1 and 3 my kids are 1 and 3 they like throwing things but there's no there's no I can't think of any product that would survive like a strong cell phone throw like to it to it's surface you're just either you're gonna have to make sure the kids don't have anything deadly in their hands or don't allow them into the room or the computer is or the TV is medyo mahirap 1660 super actually is still pretty good good value for money if that's your budget point 1660 super is very good if you can spend a little bit more the 4060 I feel is a very good midrange card I got a lot of flak when it came out but for the AI features that you're getting the DLSS features it is faster than the 3060 it uses less power it should be cheaper than the 3060 so the 1660 super is good value for money good performance panaman now but if you can spend a bit more the 4060 is also pretty good I feel you man I feel you I have lost track of the things that my children have broken it is what it is I mean it's at age where I agree I prefer to X16 also for stability and also because I always have this thought in my mind na baka kailangan ko ba yung extra two slots with you know maybe I'll again another 32 gigabytes of RAM para maging 64 I mean I'm always thinking ahead but 99% of the time di ko naman nagagamit yung four dim slots alright I agree ang hello and I agree that the prices should be below the supers but we're only starting to see that in our market now more details in our price watch episode so thank you so much for watching enjoy the long weekend if you guys already there if you have to get through to tomorrow get through tomorrow then enjoy the long weekend tomorrow the CC360 review the deep cool case pretty good case good value also for money good looking actually will be public tomorrow on Friday will be my personal preferences when building a computer like the brands and things like that and on Sunday hopefully the factory tour video from deep cool have a good night and see you on the next live stream probably Thursday live from the shop take care guys
