 I've been delinquent for the past two Fridays because I mean the past two months, so September and October just been so busy and basically I had to shoehorn this episode tonight. It's apparently the only time that I have to do the episode and before we start the episode we need people who haven't showed up yet so we need people to ask questions and also we need the sponsor video coming up now.

Check out cdkoffice.com Check out cdkoffice.com Check out cdkoffice.com So, uptansin sa Dubai Fools. To be honest, I tried to schedule these things better. I mean, I tried to tell people in advance that it will be streaming. It's actually a preferredy magtanong which is the kind of premiere show that we have or the one that most people are interested in. Sa Mark Lesser Navarro. Although Mark Lesser Navarro is interested when I play RPGs like Death Stranding and Cyberpunk which I should be playing. I don't know, I still owe the sponsor two game streams. I don't know if I'll be doing that tomorrow but definitely within next week, Alviano. This is actually the 520 Hertz or 540 Hertz monitor. So, it's not mine. Pinahiram lang ni ASUS. I actually have four monitor set up now. So, when I use it, I have to plug it in separately and put it in here. You'll see it in the B-roll when I release the video about it. And it seems criminal that I have to shunt it aside when I'm not using it. But I do have to return it to ASUS. So, it's not a new monitor but it's not something permanent that I get to keep. But yeah, that's a 520 Hertz or 540 Hertz. Some ridiculous thing. Let me check. It's the ROG Swift Pro PG248QP. And it is, it says only 360 Hertz. But that's not right. I don't know, 540 Hertz. Sorry, it's off camera. But I have another monitor set up here as a subsidiary monitor. If you've been watching my streams, you know that this is a weird camera angle for me. It's a lot tighter on my face, which I don't like. Because I don't like my face. But usually I have it here to the left of my set up. And then you can kind of see the ledge I have in the foreground. And it's kind of above and pointing down. This is a more basic camera set up. Literally I can reach out my hand and touch it in the previous set up. I couldn't touch it without leaning forward. So it's a very basic set up. It's super close, really tight. And the reason I had to do that was because I am testing out a new microphone. I am not allowed to tell you who it's from. I'm not allowed to show it on camera. The problem with the previous angle was that you could see the microphone. But do let me know how you find the audio quality compared to my previous audio quality. Actually, this is why I had my headphones on to make sure magandaing audio. Pero wala naman numalabas. Even though cilik ko naman atama ang audio. I think it's more the settings of restream. So let me know how you find the audio quality. Actually, I like it. It seems to my regular microphone is an Elgato Wave 1. So previous gen na wave 2 na sila ngayon. So I like the wave 1. I thought it was pretty good. But I noticed that it has to be really close to my face in order to pick up my voice well. So when I'm streaming, my voice can sound a bit weak. Especially when I'm gaming because I'm focused more on the game. And I'm saying something but the mic, I'm not super positioned properly for the microphone. This one, it's on my desk so you can't see it. But the distance is quite far relative to how you're supposed to use microphones. But parang maganda naman yung audio. I do appreciate dances with waifus that you like the... I thought, you know, the wave 1 sounded good. This one, I'm gonna play back to see how it sounds. Although I did recording tests of it already. This one sounds pretty good. Yung parang maganda sa kanya. It is, kahit malayo, parang maganda pick up nyo. So, Rafael James, printer promo. We don't usually carry printers to be honest, Carmel. Pero you can probably custom order. Okay. I may get to the tech questions because this is pwede magtanong. Oh sorry. Before I started the tech questions, this is an Exa headset which Exa was kind enough to send to us for review and you'll be seeing a short about it. Hopefully sooner rather than later. But to be honest, we're kind of backed up with... Thank you to most cookies, not sponsored but I do like most cookies. Sorry, I'm an ASMR cookie eating but there's not much sound to go back to eating cracklings. Tom V, yes, we do have a 4060 on stock in the shop. It's available. It's actually on stock. We don't need to get it from a supplier or anything. So this headset is from Exa. Nice basic headset. Actually, the design is very reminiscent of the H3. Yung top H3 from Asus which is actually a bit more expensive but I haven't checked out the price of this yet. There's actually another Exa there in the back behind the monitor. They sent two over two headsets. So we're testing both and we'll come up with a short for both. Stop Michael Forendo. That is the cheese mist. Supposedly may lalabas na super or Ti versions, Ti versions of the GPUs but I haven't heard anything... I haven't heard any specifics yet so everybody na pooro cheese mist lang yan so I can neither confirm nor deny with any reasonable certainty kung ano ba talaga lalabas 4070 super, 4070 Ti or something like that. Yes. So I could not say. Yan yung cheese mist but there are no details na pin down yet. Man, I've finished... I've finished Cyberpunk once. 11 times seems a bit extreme. So I'm revving yan. I am curious to do a performance review for 14th gen versus 13th gen but it's not a priority because basically, especially for those kind of benchmarks na you know, they're very... the whole world gets it basically around the same time. Lamang talaga yung big tech channels like I'm sure they give gamers next who's gonna get a copy, see, get a sample of the product a lot quicker than us, linos. Their test benches are a lot more rigorous and things like that. So like for my personal curiosity lang, I would be interested to do a breakdown comparison but really the benchmarking results probably wouldn't be that surprising considering that most of the reviews are na well, you know, it's a step up slightly but they are still using the Raptor Lake framework or you know, the Raptor Lake design the Raptor Lake design that's why it's still compatible with LGA 1700 so 12th, 13th and 14th very different for Intel usually they don't go past two generations although the 14th gen is kind of cheating it's just really like a refresh they added some cores to some of them but basically they're plucking out chips na pumasa sa silicone lottery oh, we can kind of overclock these guys slap on a bit more chips, threads and then sorry, not threads because those are virtual but slap on a little bit more hardware and call it a day it's really it's a very mild refresh it's not really like something to get super excited about I think but if you were holding out for an upgrade might as well go in for the 14th gen if you're getting some brand new sapanton all right let's get to the questions we'll try to do it snappy what's better RX 7800XT or 470Ti for i5-12400 a little I don't usually resort to calling something bottleneck or something but either of those GPUs will bottleneck I think the 4070Ti is faster in terms of performance definitely better in terms of DLSS for the AI upscale sampling and RTX so 4070Ti if you can stretch the budget because the 7800XT would be cheaper we just did price watch let me check ka because the 4070 is around I don't even need to check is around 40 plus K you can get cheaper brands around 38 but the ASUS one we have is around 40 plus K that's a 4070 so the 4070Ti would be even more expensive than that you can get a 7800XT for around 35, 36, 37 so in in terms of price mas maling 4070Ti pero mas mabilis din siya but that being said so both of them would bottleneck you get more of a bottleneck with the 4070Ti hi as it video likes to call them pero for me, if you can afford kung cash na mas a budget I would go with the 4070Ti just because I'm not super afraid of bottleneck yes it is a thing but I think you can still see noticeable improvement in your games even with the bottleneck if you do concern about the bottleneck yes there would be a bottleneck but if that's your thing if you know kaya na mo na budget I would say go for the 4070Ti sapo chi you're welcome, thank you for custom ordering from us the supplier was actually thrilled that we were able that they got a 4900K order out the door right away julius best fan for PC case po and fan for CPU tower cooler I like the deep cools very good bang for your buck they come in a variety of sizes so they can fit most cases yun yan yung number one make sure that the fan oh sorry I thought you met CPU cooler but you're asking just the fans you're gonna replace the fans of your case I like Arctic Arctic is very good value for money noctua of course noctua is aces noctua is fire and forget they are a bit pricey like 1000 plus per fan Arctic you can get a 5 pack so Arctic is very good value for money very good performance noctua if you want to splurge a bit more be quiet also has very good fans also a bit on the pricey side but I would go with Arctic for bang for buck and if you want to stretch or be quiet my fans my personal rig is open air because the test bench set up so I don't really have a lot of case fans because what would be the point although I am rocking a noctua cooler and it's using noctua fans now yun so this is the XI headset white usually I use my MH630 although to be honest medyo wala ring silbit ay I mean I think that's more the settings of restream rather than a problem with the mic because the audio is working sorry the audio output is working I would plug it into the mic and I play the youtube video and I can hear it it's just that I can't hear myself like when I talk through the mic but anyway I think that's more of a restream issue based on my experience and reviews you be here as ko lang po yung laptop ko is nakaroon ng line and nagkulay pink gamitin na matagal kasi bumulin kasi bumulin na lang ako ng monitor yes basically man you can really see the problem with this tight focus when I put the chat on screen like basically covers my face what you're describing probably is a display issue so yes if you have a monitor that you plug into your laptop you can run the laptop and even if the screen goes to hell you can still have your use your laptop and then just output it to the monitor so long story short yes what you describe does sound like a display issue yes Garth please ask just post your question and we'll get to it Riku may problem ako sa PC ko fan spin at max RPM PSU is working fine LED debug is stuck at white no post sorry I'm chuckling to myself because my answer to these kind of questions always is try it to reseat the RAM, reseat the GPU usually that works for some reason for me it's always RAM I've heard other tech channels say the same thing especially for Linus go to is always the RAM that's also been my experience so for these kind of problems na parang hindi siya nagbabutap nung maayos I would suggest and it's super easy to do turn everything off unplug your PC remove the RAM wait a little bit stick it back in power up your PC and see if that works and since I'm already monkeying around inside the PC I would also suggest reseating the GPU sound super basic but you'd be surprised how often that solves the problem if it happens again then maybe you need to do a mem test on the RAM nung habang naglalive stream no naman actually I like doing it without an audience although that is just a reflection behind me the couch is for my use because I do have a large monitor so I when I'm watching episodes on my monitor I sit that far away kasi medyo malaki yung monitor ko and I try to get like high quality video para you know you can see all the details gamers we have well just to shout out to the brand that supported us prism plus has some good monitors around 7000-8000 they're pretty good specs wise quality wise is also good although to be honest we ran across an issue with one of the prism pluses we have two monitors from them that they sent over and then they allowed us to keep one of them medyo bumigay na yung port so that seems to be a long term concern with prism plus you can't get it warrantied yung maganda they're actually in country so it's not they're not just selling it through Singapore they're a Singapore company they have to ship it through Singapore they do have a local presence here so warranty is faster the specs of the prism plus are usually pretty good at a pretty good price longevity wise one of the ports seems to have given out already I think it was a display port on one of our monitors you can get it warrantied plus side is that they do have a presence here the downside is well you have to wait and things like that if you want to go with a bit higher tier brand ASOS has one that's very good for gamers 24 inches I don't know if we still haven't stopped let me check the refresh rate is crazy on that thing wait I have the duck because I can't see my monitor because my tripod is in the way like ASOS the ASOS VY249 HGE is 1080p but it's 144Hz at 9900 pesos so that's pretty good already we actually have a ViewSonic which is 1080p also 180Hz for 9650 so I'm assuming you're a gamer these brands are reliable and kung makaproblema regardless of the brand regardless of how much you pay for makaproblema eventually you're gonna come across something mabilis naman yung warranty nila both ASOS and ViewSonic but those are actually subbelo 10,000 but for me to be honest if you can splurge a little bit more sobrang sulit to splurge on your monitor because bali wala lang yung ang bilis ng specs mo if your monitor can't display what the PC is capable of outputting so me for my personal thing would at least be 27 inches I love having a large monitor it really adds to the immersion of whatever you're playing N2K so 1440p settings I don't need it super fast maybe around 144Hz above 144Hz to me I can live without but actually even like maybe 120p you can still find one although I can't remember I can't think of any monitor sa Pesto na may 27 inches N2K at 120Hz wala umaisip but those would be the minimum specs for me for a monitor if medyo kaya ng budget sa Pesto dystopia do I need a new windows key for a new motherboard? yes probably um windows basis basically it's like oh you bought a new computer that's why you need this is the thought process of windows you bought a new computer that's why you need a new windows key and it basis that if you replace the motherboard you can replace everything else microsoft won't care it will still think it's the same computer but when you replace the mobile oh bago na yan one option though is if you linked the cd key to your microsoft account I think that way you can install windows and then reactivate it using your windows account kasi nakatayin na doon I don't like doing that though because microsoft basically gathers information about you through the account so I prefer buying a one-time key that I used to activate usually I don't reformat naman a lot and I don't upgrade a lot and what I do upgrade is like a GPU or something so okay parin yung windows activation ko my key I do not like tying it into my microsoft account but that's just me that's my personal wave 3 na pala yung Elgato like when I was buying the wave 1 and wave 2 I was deciding between when I was buying my wave 1, I was deciding between 1 and 2, may 3 na pala what I do want to get from Elgato is their teleprompter stop Adrian um yes ah no sorry we do delivery sorry the in-house carrier no we don't do it outside of metro manila so it's still it's just inside metro manila for now if it's like super adjacent I probably would for you to be honest because you know I I know you're a supporter of the channel I see your name pop up often if it's like adjacent like antipolo risal um maybe we haven't tried yet down south we've been um to be we bought a so we got an in-house career recently so his full-time employee we got him a motorcycle um to make sure na hindi siya masirahan sa daan and things we haven't tried out yet papuntang south so let's say lang pas ng laspinas yung tipong kalam malayo nang kalamba kahit yung santa rosa we haven't tried him out yet but you know I would be curious to try it if we can extend our range that far so slightly adjacent of metro manila bulakan maybe antipolo santa rosa baka kaya pa but we haven't done that yet full disclosure what about him for upgrade B450 more tarmax horizon 5800x yes you'll probably need to update the bios but the B450 chip is still AM4 and the 5000 series so which includes the r75800x is AM4 so yes kaya naman you'll probably need to update the bios of the motherboard there was actually a big stink when I think the 5000 series came out na AMD was like well you know we promise all of our old motherboards would support up to 5000 series pero we're just really having a hard time cramming all of the necessary instructions onto the motherboards because actually the size the storage space that reserved for bios is actually super small so AMD had a problem initially na they said na ok certain older motherboard models kasi yung B450 was supplanted mas batas sa B450 so AMD was a little trying to get away with a fast one and I think the B450 was initially included na hindi na supported yung mga newer CPUs because people complained AMD turned around so yes it supported you'll probably need to update the bios ok sorry guys I will go back to the older questions let me just skip to the newer questions is it better to build AM5 socket kasi um um if so I assume you're going to be buying a new PC it still depends on your budget to be honest if you can go kind of all out let's say 80 to 100 80 pataas I would still I would say AM4 is still viable sorry between a certain range 80 to 120k I would say that AM4 is still viable because you basically get a super top tier na AM4 and then you can upgrade the GPU the CPU will still be good for 3-4 years in fact I myself am thinking I am on an AM4 platform I'm using a Ryzen 73700X so not even the latest 5000 GPU I'm thinking towards the end of the year I'm going to buy the bullet and get a 5950X I wanted to get an R7-5800X3D because I'm a gamer and things like that but I think the extra horsepower of the 5950X will help me during editing because I just really get super annoyed when the playback is not smooth when you're trying to edit so I think even if you're building a new PC may value for money pa din yung AM4 socket if you get towards higher end that performance will last you a good 2-3 years even longer depending on the usage that you do now if you are higher budget pa over 120 I would say if you get fine go with AM5, you get DDR5 your well position to upgrade later on because it's just the start of the AM5 series with the 7000 CPU line so basically if money were no object di no problem go with the AM5 but 80-120 can still get you a very decent AM4 build that will last you a long time now the interesting question is can you do a cheaper build but AM5, let's say 60K is getting easier but the motherboards are still expensive DDR5 is still expensive in fact RAM prices are starting to go up again medyo bumagsak sila for the last 3 months if there was too much supply because the suppliers were produced too much because they overreacted to the shortages during COVID pero ngayon so for like 3-4 months there was too much, there was a glop on the market prices dropped but now prices are going back up again my suppliers keep screaming at me na sir beli ka na, beli ka na kasi tumataos ko nito yung mga pre-show if I had capital I would para we could lock it in at a lower price 3 jack though bought a 3060 ti for 1440p triple A gaming mahirap na i-sell second hand for a good price for upgrading, right? it really depends on what you bought it I think parang on the context of your question you bought it at full price it's hard to sell it at full price but you can probably sell it second hand the 3060 ti is still a very good card um so I wouldn't really call it a mistake to be honest, it depends on how much you bought it for but performance wise the 3060 ti is still very acceptable in 2023 2k gaming it is it is kind of like a very well performing 1080p card shading into 2k gaming space it's super close to the 3070 so you're actually getting very close to the performance of the 3070 for less of the price so I actually like the 3060 ti as a very good performer for value 2k gaming it does well for the price so I wouldn't call it a mistake although yung ad depends on what you bought it for if you're thinking like you wanted like the tenor of your question is that you're thinking of selling it and then buying a new work card I mean you can, you won't be able to get full price for it, yun nga so if you're thinking of doing that, yes it was a mistake you should have just saved up your money that you put into the card para makiipon ka to get a faster 40 series card that can handle 2k so in that respect if that's a context that was a mistake but if it was na yun talagay budget, pumasok ka na enjoy it use it for 6 months or so then iponolit and then you can sell it for maybe 3 fourths of the price, maybe depending on how much you got it for so it's not a super big mistake let me just, sorry I jumped and then I agree I agree smallest ATX case I don't know, what's a small ATX case I can't think of any to be honest we kind of trend towards the larger sizes um I'd say mid tower but that's a super general answer and I can't think of any the smallest ATX case that I've seen nothing stands out to me in terms of like, oh it's too late for an ATX case I answered this question already yes, most likely you do unless na katayin yung nakatayin yung key sa windows account mo so Microsoft account mo this is a very broad question very briefly and actually we're doing a video on this very briefly, some things you should consider what resolution do you play at that's very important that will determine if you play at 1080p mostly then you should only look at these cards what settings do you play at do you like it with RTX on or not so that's the first one and also what kind of games do you play I mean if it's just Dota 2 you don't really need a super expensive graphics card if you're looking for AAA games probably want a card with at least 12 gigabytes of VRAM because that's the whole thing now so sorry just to boil it down, number one what resolution do you play, number two what games do you play number three what settings do you play on, you like higher texture qualities and things like that and with those requests you can kind of narrow down what kind of graphics card you need like for me to answer that criteria I like playing at 2k I do like high graphics settings like I sacrifice frame rates for graphic fidelity or higher graphics like if it's a story game I don't need 100hz 100 frames per second I can do 80 pero high graphics matas yung texture shaders the textures are on high or ultra high or things like that but those are my personal preferences usually when I buy I don't change it for the next ilang taon so yung I have a 3080 now which I just stole from the shop but that's in line with what the kind of thing like I kind of try to get high end pero di ko na pinapaitan for like a long time because I do like that is my gamer profile I want 2k, I want high graphics I don't mind super, I don't mind low refresh rates or relatively low frame rates so yung, those are the things that you need to consider for yourself and then from there mananaroodaon mo na itong bagong graphics card baka yung 4060, ok na sakin 500-600G with a 4060 yes it is compatible we've talked about this before actually in our latest we have an hour 30 minute video we talk about every component in the pc one of those is the GPU this question like is it possible to pair xcpu and ygpu the answer like 99% of the time is yes what the question really asks is that will it bottleneck that's a whole thing it's a whole thing let me just put the link na lang in chat where I think the video really describes it better like what you need to consider about that what you mean by pweding it pair na yung compatible and things like that let me just pull up the link and I will put the GPU part na gpu because I really get confused when people ask me this question because if it's just on the level of that question ay gagana siya compatible siya but I think what people mostly usually mean by it is that there's the link in the chat below is it a good idea will it bottleneck that's a completely different question from this question na gagana ba makay ba ba yung compatible ba siya gagana ba versus is it a good idea is it the most efficient way will it bottleneck brand new 600, better than new 6700 XT I think performance wise actually 6700 XT is faster I think ka, I mean that's what I recall from the reviews and things the benchmarking that I've seen but I do understand yung hesitation mo kasi inisip mo, bibilay ako dun sa previous gen, may bagong generation na but a lot of the times especially for graphics cards the previous gen na medyo mataas is still faster than the newer gen na lower end of the newer gen so 6700 XT I think is faster than the 7600 and it's not like kasi sa NVIDIA even if you're getting a slower 40 series card you do get access to DLSS III or frame generation which is only available on the 40 series cards walang ganoon si AMD there is no special feature on the 7000 series that is not available on the 6000 series as far as I know AMD has been making moves but I haven't come across any thing na parang ganoon kasi sa NVIDIA if you're looking at DLSS III frame generation which is really interesting tech actually we did a video for NVIDIA recently basically what DLSS III does is that there are two scenes from a game so scene one and scene two tapos yung git ng scene NVIDIA is able to generate it on the fly that's DLSS III frame generation and it really helps the frame rates we did a short benchmark in cyberpunk with DLSS III off and frame gen on we have a short about it on the channel if you're curious it boosts them frames without any sacrifice of graphical quality I wouldn't have known just based on the watching the benchmarking video na DLSS III was on you could probably go higher to be honest 3060 megabytes is fine if the budget can afford it I would go higher 3070 3080 in general if you're a gamer spend more on the GPU spend as much as your budget can if you know you're going to be playing those kind of games again kung valorant you don't need to spend that much on the GPU those are super efficient games you don't need a super high end GPU 3070, 80 degrees playing triple A games so basically 80 degrees on load yes that's fine I wouldn't worry about it I wouldn't worry about it it's fine yes you might probably see the temperature decreases if you clean it up and replace it but the temperatures now I wouldn't worry about it agree agree maximum GPU for 1200F the question is basically asking what GPU will not bottleneck with a 1200F but personally I don't really think that that should be a major consideration so for me it's what games do you play magagamit panong na nga ng bagong GPU pero magagamit panong games na linalaru mo sayang lang ways to your money buying an expensive GPU but the games that you usually play don't need it naman so instead of worrying about will my CPU bottleneck with the GPU I would focus more on bagay ba yung GPU na binibili ko for my setup sorry for my preferences actually for the settings that I like to play those games on and I know this is kinda again we did a video about this very recently where I talk about common tech advice that I don't agree with and the obsession with bottleneck is one of that those pieces of advice that I don't agree with yes it's a thing yes we should all strive to have the most efficient setups possible but kalakohan yung worrying about bottleneck it can change based on the software the settings that you have in the software it's a moving target so baka bottleneck siya sa isang game pero sa isang game di naman siya bottleneck pag-abago yung drivers di na siya bottleneck so I think a more helpful approach would be like how we've been talking about it what games you play what settings you want to play on what resolution you want to play on best budget case best ITX small form factor the 6700 XT isn't that big isn't that long of a card because it's 380 mm ata yung mga average size for a card is around 335 mm I think 380 seems a bit extreme but I can't remember what the 4090 is 335 is slightly long already 6700 XT depends on the brand but I would be surprised if it's longer 335 mm an ITX case that can fit a 335 the budget the nr200p actually is not that expensive anymore it's around 4,000 pesos I mean di siya super budget but that's a very good price na for a very good case which can fit most GPUs there are so many case brands on the market Techware has some good cases at a good price I can't remember any ITX case that they have because we don't carry techware we used to carry techware to be honest and I wanted to get more but the problem with the distributor whenever I would ask them kung may stock ba palaging out of stock and then I learned na pinifavor nila yung larger shops oh mag-order si insert large PC shop here do nila if a funnel yung stock nila so I'm like well okay no hard feelings I understand if you want to sell to them but I just stopped asking anymore kung mga oh may stock ba kayo because every time I asked it was like no stock we won't stock you I mean di naman sa it sounds like a breakup or something na ayo mo sa akin di ayo ko rin sayo but just the logistics of it every time I would ask they wouldn't have any so that's why we don't have any techware but we had them before they're very good at copying yung mga uso na styles from higher end brands and they come out with their own version that looks very similar but I can't remember any ITX na na build na na case specifically from them this is Raphael James answer to the B450 question this is true it'll work but with a bias update you're not getting as many PCIe lanes and things like that so you're not getting the full possible speed of the CPU but yun there's a problem with answering PC questions you can answer it usually can answer straight forward yes or no but just like you're answering a low question andami mga asterisk or fine print na yes it's B450 will work if you bias update but you probably won't get all of the speed because it has a lesser number of PCIe lanes and things like that generally when people ask me for tech advice I try na to get into the weeds a little bit and just I try to answer the basic question but Raphael James is completely correct there are advantages to using a B550 mobile over a B450 3060 ah sorry I don't recommend the 3060 anymore if you're getting brand new because the 4060 is cheaper and faster so I would recommend the 4060 that's basically for the ballpark what you would expect for a 5600G if on a budget usually sometimes 3050 but I think like you know 4060 get it around for 19K now I don't know the budget but that's a very decent GPU already you could kinda maybe go with intel ah sorry actually yes you could go with intel or you could also go with AMD para iwa sakit sa ulo in video drivers are pretty good compared to either intel or AMD so 4060 no brainer same question I mean I remember this guy you can go all the way up to the highest end of the 5000 series so 5950X if you're a gamer actually I wouldn't get the 5950X because yes it has lots of course and threads but you don't really use a lot of that for gaming which is more about single core performance if you're a gamer the Ryzen 7 X3D that's the important one is still super good that's what I would get yan yung pangarap kong CPU dati except now maybe I need to get the 5950X I'm doing a lot more edits now Ren actually Ren is our front end designer but she's also been doing a lot of the edits on our videos we're refocusing her towards the front end so she'll still be doing some editing but not as much so we're in a transition now in the meantime I've picked up the slack I've had to do more edits this month and my rig hasn't changed but it's just I find it a little annoying na mabagal yung playback with an R7300X so I might bite the bullet with a R95950X the 5600G I think you can go A320 would be the cheapest from what I recall if you can still find an A320 yung parang pinakalates dun sa line na yun is the A520 which is all still relatively cheap 6000 pesos or so but if you can find the A320 it is probably compatible again with the BIOS update with the 5600G winsterms recommended po na GPU that good for mining if you're trying to mine bitcoin don't do GPU mining you need to get the specialized chips they're called ASIC miners because hindi na siya cost effective to do mining on GPU for bitcoin so bitcoin ASIC mining for ethereum you can't mine anymore like that they move from proof of work to proof of stake so there is no mining in that sense anymore you can mine other coins usually AMD is better for miners but you'd have to for altcoins you need to check like the altcoin that you specifically want to mine and the new settings na kailangan for that I would imagine AMD cards are better but again it depends on the altcoin I do not know Rafael my brother is the one who is usually like ma furniture we had a standing desk Rafael ever made a video for that somebody sent us a standing desk to review it I think that had wheels it was a bit pricey because it was a standing desk so you may pinipindot mo it was pretty cool though I think it still has it in this room I can't remember the brand sorry we don't have the we don't have the technical know-how for that the 5600X doesn't run particularly hot you can get a very good deep cool AIO the what did I call them now the LS 520s or something you know even need to go LT LS basically the deep cool AIOs are good price to performance they also look good they're also reliable but my suggestion actually for you would be you don't actually need to go AIO you can get a very well priced air cooler for that CPU and it will cool just as well if you like the aesthetic of AIO ibang usapan na yun yes then you can get an AIO deep cool would be my recommendation you could even get cheaper with id cooling but I don't I'm a little iffy on the reliability over yung long term lifespan of id cooling so deep cool pony up a little bit more for deep cool you won't regret it but if you know budget is the thing you don't need to go AIO for a 5600X I have no idea what this is what is this pink mangwan I have not, what is this curve versus flat so full disclosure usually my screens are flat I have 4 monitors here 58 inch 24, 27 and this really old one is actually a TV na 42 inches na lumang TV ko they're all flat that said I did get to try the ROG XG349C like 2 years ago so that's curved and I was surprised that I liked it a lot I had biases against curved monitors I didn't see the appeal or ano ba yung benefit at the curvature I was worried na magawarp yung image at the curve so I was bias against curved monitors but when I got to try it and I got to try it for an extended period they sent it over during pandemic I basically played the heck out of that thing dami kong games na roodon sa HG349C and you can still see it sometimes it pops up in our b-roll so that said I do not still, even after that, I do not look for a curve but at the same time if there was a curved monitor that fit the specs that I was looking for I would get it like di ako mag-hesitate just because it was curved so basically my personal answer is the curve doesn't add a lot to me, yes it seems a little bit more immersive but the flat screen still works for me so I would buy it there needs to be something a bit extra like is the price better swap ba dun sa specs na hianap ko and everything so everything being equal I would still get a flat but if the price was good there was some spec on the curve that I wanted na wala sa flat then I would get the curve, no problem I would use the heck out of it I know I've been a little reflective of myself as a tech content creator or something in fact we're doing a video now where I basically say I talk too much and I'm just going to give you the advice that you want what is the best GPU for you? ito bang because I know that when I give answers it's like well this side but then this side because that's how I think also I try to weigh both pros and cons even for my own hardware um but we do have a video coming out hopefully next week where I consciously try not to have that approach and just try to make it super simple na ano makat ng GPU ito bang bang bang but on the issue of flat or curve everything being equal I would probably still get a flat that said I appreciate curved monitors now Lord yes just get a just get a 5800x3d for gaming get it I would get it it's been on my mind for a while now when should I upgrade to 5800x3d get it get it yes 550W PSU 6600xT 7500F 32 order yeah ok na yan 550W ok fine hopefully so you know a major reliable 550W from fsp, from Corsair, from csonic although that said the usual 550W of csonic the s123 is not so great um but the Corsair CV550 fsp the fsp hv pro is super cheap 550W but it is rock solid like di ka that is a ridiculously good cpsu sorry for the price 5600G this sounds like the same question but different person again like a 460 for me would be an easier recommendation for that there are a lot of people asking about what GPU should I pair with a 5600G again like my off the cuff response would be a 4060 the new ones, yes the new ones grave our supplier actually has been offering the new odyssees the OLED ones, the crazy ass large ones, they look so beautiful I haven't seen them yet in person but the reviews have been very good I keep tempting our usual high roll spenders now we can see it in the shop wala pang kumakagat but the new ones are supposed to be pretty good I'm not sure if this is the same guy who asked I thought he was asking about GPU actually but either way if it's 80 degrees on the CPU on load that's fine, GPU on load 80 degrees that's also fine don't freak out guys, especially the 5000 series I mean the 5600X doesn't run as hot as some of the other 5000s but the 5000 in general the series runs hot 80 degrees on load for either CPU or GPU is fine is this the new one I haven't tried it myself the specs are pretty good I think tech b-roll yeah I think tech b-roll had a review about it which I haven't seen but I know that he was able to try it to ata yung bago yung bagong 27 inch from ASUS sorry I'm trying to recall um yeah so tech b-roll has if you're not familiar with this channel tech b-roll is also a Philippine content creator tech related I think he was able to try out recently that monitor you might want to check out his reviews 7800XT current CPU is only 3300X planning to buy 5700X yes no go with the 5700XT sorry sorry go with the 5700X the CPU you can play it now so you're well positioned for the Christmas games um there's no need to go AM5 especially if you know just kind of dipping into AM5 with the 7600X so the 5700X for me especially with that GPU that's that's good it's just the Elgato the one I mentioned yeah I'm I know it's like 200 plus dollars I asked our supplier here I like getting from our suppliers because I don't pay retail right I just pay the dealer price Elgato supplier is not carrying it I'm like why? I don't actually use a teleprompter what I like to do is I have an outline but then I like following the out you know I just go with the outline so that I can be a little more spontaneous in the videos but for editing it's a real bitch to be honest if I keep repeating myself because I don't I'm not reading from a script so I think to save my new editor whoever that may be when I finally decide on one I really need to shift to more formal scripts and my brother Rafael had several teleprompters but I never found one that I really liked Elgato nga came out with a teleprompter just very recently like this week lang at that and that looks good because it's like it's own screen but it's more than 200 dollars currently subgamer zone ah you're talking about the podcast I do want to get back on the podcast horse and I thank you so much for those who religiously listen to it I do want to get back on it it's just that this past like 3-4 weeks yung an daming an daming kilang go in with Ren shifting back to to front end work and in the shop the shop has been a little bit busy so I need to stay on top of inventory I just haven't had the time usually I would record that on Thursday and then para maout on Friday and then I came up with a podcast actually I recorded one I never even uploaded it because I was just so darn busy it's a yung an I am doing more of the video work now aside from my brother Rafael is also gone so basically it's just me lang with the videos every month we need to do at least 4 and then there are review videos pa because the brands keep sending us stuff and I don't need to sound ungrateful it is amazing that we have this platform we have this audience we have the interest of these brands but it's also a responsibility that we maintain the quality for the brand for the sponsors for the audience not necessarily in that order I know you guys come first but it's been a little stressful to be honest plus I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old I'm also teaching now in my alma mater for the second straight semester so I have a lot on my plate it just so happens every Thursday I'm just a damiko hinahabul whether it's inventory for the shop and making sure that we meet our deliverables for this month with everybody so the podcast textual but friendly has been kind of sidelined a little bit but I do want to get back to it hopefully when we hire a new editor we're also looking for someone to take over chat so that our current chat guy Russell if you met him in the shop will be moved to inventory so hopefully with these moves so we're kind of like upgrading also in a way hopefully with these moves the workload on me will be lessened a little bit so I can go back to the podcast I can slot the podcast back in to my usual schedule to be honest before I set up the channel before I set up the shop and everything I did LG monitor na 32 inches na yung nga I didn't own a PC shop yet to be honest I bought it by in the States so I don't know if it was available here but I love that LG monitor and then it crapped out on me and I was so sad I even tried to get it fixed but LG here said they couldn't fix it I just this was wave maybe 10-15 years ago but I love that LG monitor the new ultra whites now we recently got a customer that got three of the new ones I posted about it on the Facebook on our Facebook page they look really good I hope the long term quality is also good that customer has a special project for it so three is just the first batch of orders he's going to be ordering a bunch more and I can't talk about it yet because it's his project but he has something really cool na public facing I mean meant for the general public that he'll be doing with those ultra wide monitors maybe like in a week or two we'll announce it also on our Facebook so basically he's getting the hardware from us also the computers including those ultra wide monitors and then he's going to do something really cool with them and hopefully we can talk about it too 500G, I don't know I think you're the same guy I recognize your picture 40-60 man I got buried again by the comments let me just do the ad again we got a lot of help Dati I'm so depressed but now I'm from the love of my life Dati I started without a purpose in my life but now I'm a world class Zuba Instructor so I'm a web developer and content creator for a youtube channel and now I'm still like that but my windows is already activated kaya ako naghanap ka ng legit mura at original software check out CDKOfer.com check out CDKOfer.com check out CDKOfer.com please do check out CDKOfer.com we have bought over we have bought hundreds of keys from them like literally hundreds of keys they are legit sa pesto um it's true the general advice is you don't so just to make it super simple let's say you have 10 bios versions 1 through 10, 10 being the latest and your current bios is bios 2 the general advice is not to jump from bios 2 to bios 10 but you do bios 2 to 3, 4, 5, 6 you go through the series until you reach the latest but to be honest who has time for that we generally just jump to the latest bios version unless makaproblema and then that's when we start rolling back so that's how we do it at the shop scrolling through oh god don't tempt me that is my my current upgrade target my previous my previous upgrade target was supposed to be the R7 5800 X3D for gaming et cetera but I just got really annoyed na yung you're trying to scrub through a video and then cutting and things like that but then you just just a lot of time wasted I just might bite the bullet and get the high end na nung AM4 I believe I have answered this 2K to 40Hz the G7 you mean Samsung may issue kasi you need to check may issue with the Samsung is that some of the faster ones especially the previous models are VA panels so the kind of panel that your monitor has basically it's VAT and IPS or OLED I mean very roughly IPS is generally OLED is the best in terms of like image quality then you have various variations on OLED but for most people IPS is really pretty good my problem with the VA and TN the image quality isn't good for me so when you see the Samsung monitors especially the older generations wow it's so large parang ganyan but you need to check usually kasi VA panel so is it VA or TN parang TN ata in Samsung I can't quite remember but regardless I wouldn't game on a VA or TN panel if you're looking for 240 Hz maybe you're not that interested in image quality you just really want like the fast speed so that's my thing with the Samsung monitors you might be able to find 1440p at 240 Hz I just can't think of any of the top of my head and also depends on the size but if you're considering the G7 set 32 or something I can't quite remember the size of the G7 yung Odyssey kasi G9 ata yun e so if it's a G7 I can't remember but you have to check make sure it's at least an IPS panel probably the 4060 runs on a lot less power than the 3060 so I mean usually you also need to check what your CPU is because those are your two main power draws the CPU and the GPU probably okay na recently got 360mm AIO but idle temps oh yeah see idle temps of 60-80 on idle is yeah that's problematic I don't even know what your CPU is but that is not normal regardless of what CPU and it's a 360mm run which is there's a big difference in performance between 240 and 360mm runs so we're getting a lot better cooling with the 360 I don't mean to criticize or comment on your technical skill but please make sure na datanggal na yung sticker sa CPU block of the AIO yung please remove before use you'd be surprised how many times we've seen it na there's a CPU cooler that's not cooling when we remove it from the CPU we still see the sticker on the plate of the CPU block so I would check that first it happens to everybody number two if it's not working indeed na datanggal yung sticker I would try to bump up the RPMs of the AIO but yes maybe it's a pump defect or like what we experienced before with the MSI Core Liquid 240R may build up inside the AIO itself so di na makasorculate properly yung water tapos yung interesting doon usually there are two pipes so one in one out so in going through a radiator then out again with the cold water one pipe was super hot and the other ones couldn't feel very neutral consistent in the Core Liquid 240R na may problema 575 but ok ma where's this B350 um yes to be honest I wouldn't I don't memorize every new motherboard line may like oh ilang number PCI Elaine's but um yes there is some performance loss because the B350 doesn't have as many PCI Elaine's as the B550 I'm reflecting because I said na I'm not a big believer in having bottleneck beside your fate but in this case it's not a bottleneck between CPU and GPU it's just like a GPU it's like a bottleneck getting data back and forth between the GPU so I mean that might have as a significant impact I mean you have a nice CPU already and I'm assuming a GPU that follows um you might also want to consider upgrading the motherboard Hi 770X 470 very good LG that's very good that is your golden for 90% of the games number if the we've sold high larger version of the monitor so if the specs of the larger one are the same as the 27 incher it's all good B660M 3900K yes it is compatible again you might need a bias update um but yes and the 14th gen oh there hello all right parang the mic cut out a little bit there's an indicator kasi ang the mic it started flashing red but then it's okay na just making sure um yes so compatible naman I don't know how much of a performance usually with the with a 3900K you would want the kind of top tier so Z690 MOBOs don't know how much performance you're leaving on the table with just B660 and a 3900K pero here just asking kung compatible yes that is compatible probably with a bias update 4060Ti or 3060Ti the 4060Ti is a bit pricey the 4060Ti was not received very well um reviewers really slammed it we don't carry it in the shop kasi we don't find it good value for money kung good value for money lang actually it's a 3060Ti the 4060Ti is faster but it's in this very weird space where you're getting it's not very good value for money kung better buy in terms of cost to performance the 3060Ti is still pretty good how much is the 3060Ti we should have one 3060Ti 3060Ti is we have it at 23185 so that's the ventus um we don't have a 4060Ti we don't stock it I mean we can get it to custom order but we don't routinely stock it kasi we don't actually the way we stock the shop is na yung people we can recommend to the customers what we think is good value for money so we deliberately don't stock CPUs na we think like very weak yung use case niya yes you could get it but for a lot of users it doesn't make a lot of sense so kung value for money lang I would say the 3060Ti anong kaiba nung OEM na windows key sa retail windows key pwede mo gamitin yung pag magpapalit ng SSD boot drive I'm not sure what you mean by magpapalit but you can use it wherever you would use a regular key I mean they have the same features OEM just means that when you bought a computer, meron na um my problem also with that kasi is the OEM doesn't really tell you what your key is so if you want to wipe windows, put in a new drive with a retail key you would have the key so it would be easy to reactivate but the for the PCM1 it's hard to find we don't deal with a lot of OEM PCs so my experience skews towards buying retail keys the more interesting question is why are the keys for Microsoft so expensive compared to sites like CDKey and we actually did a video on that couple of years ago but in terms of features, activation there's a legitimacy they're all the same I mean they're all legit I think this is the question of the night 4060 Adrian I bought a 4060 Ti Aero that is the gigabyte white GPUs dada lang isip lang ako kung anong CPU dapat maganda if if you can afford the 13400 might as well go with the 13400 that's fine 80 degrees on load 3070, I wouldn't worry about it ang palit namin sa horizon 55600 para sa B550M actually the 5600 is already good for that mobile you can go higher R7-5700X R7-5800X3D if you really want to splurge GPU depends what CPU you if you get the 5800X3D and you're really positioning for gaming at least 3070 sana maybe in 3080 4070 maybe with price here but yeah there are about if you get the 5800X3D but if you stay with the R5-5600 it's a good choice for that mobile 4060 but if it's just for photo and video editing you don't really need fast GPU for that so 3050 I mean you can don't need to go overboard with the GPU 1660 super even depending on the budget photo and video editing still relies a lot on the GPU sorry on the CPU don't need to spend super expensive for the GPU pano ko malalaman kung anong compatible or best GPU ang pwede sa isang system unit I will answer that again with this video you should really check it out that's the GPU part where I talk about things like that this place like the MSI gaming once have a targeting reticle overlay function whether it's cheating or not thoughts I never use it I don't like having it kind of burned in there it's distracting to me personally if I heard that my opponent was using it I wouldn't think anything of it parang I don't think it would give that much of an advantage so I wouldn't feeling ko if you're a good feeling ko if you're a good gamer a decent gamer, a competent gamer you can of equal skill to that guy it doesn't matter anymore like if you had that burned in targeting reticle I don't think it adds a lot to aiming target acquisition, target tracking and things like that that said I've never used it myself because I don't like having it on screen just today for a video going to be released next month I started using aimlab the video idea is that aimlab is software organized by a lot of professional gamers basically you train yourself to have better aim so I'm starting now today and I'm going to see if after 30 days of using aimlab kung gumaling na aim ko because I'm not a professional gamer I am 40 this year so I am old all that said I think I'm a competent gamer especially in FPS and things like that I'm not the best I'm not hopeless na man but I want to see if there is noticeable uptake in my performance do I get more kills am I able to flick faster do I get more headshots does my accuracy improve after 30 days of using aimlab so that is a video that we're doing for next month but I have to start it now because it takes a little time but to the previous question I don't think too much about it I think in any competitive area whether it's like professional or even just like you're super into online games and you're very competitive as a person that you know I want to beat this guy inevitably when there are things like that add-ons and things people will say na that's cheating because not your access to that depends on what hardware you're using and not everybody has access to this hardware but I think it's such a small thing for me I wouldn't consider it cheating stream sniping yes that is in commsat but by stream that is clear cheating aim bots or things that's clear cheating hacks that show the map that's clear cheating things like that I wouldn't consider it as cheating myself I mean yun ya in mouse not everybody has the latest mouse or something but you know the basic input output same lang naman and even like if you're super good that you can take advantage of low latency things like your mouse like invidia reflex and things like that that's only because you are already so good na maximizing low latency na mga yun so the hardware just enhances your innate skill you're already like top tier sa gamer and just last about it thresh is a super old school quick player back in the day when fps was new and things like that thresh was like the champion of everyone and he had an interview once I love this insight into the gamer mind he was like he was kind of bragging explaining na ya I was champion I was beating people this was way back like mid 90s late 90s he was competing sometimes online but you know it's very much slower internet compared to what we have now he was saying na I was beat na ka basically not exactly but basically he was saying na ka dialamp lang ako sila na ka ISDN or yung masabilista internet but I would still beat them this is in quake which is basically the epitome of a twitch game of a reflex game and a lot of people will complain oh kasi ping matas ping ko I can't compete because it's a game based on reflexes but thresh was saying my internet connection was not the best but I was number one what he was saying was even reflex games require more thought you have to outthink your opponent even in fps rather than just it's all about reflex and latency and of course it's good if you have excellent tracking skills but it's just only enhances the innate ability skill of the gamer already because the way thresh did it was I would get items even though I didn't need it because I was denying it to the enemy I would know my maps so it was strategic thinking even in an fps game where he's saying people think it's just twitch it's reflex but it's not it's outthinking your opponent even in a first person game and I think that was super insightful if you're not a gamer you kinda look at fps games and think that it's just reflex who can shoot the fastest who can aim the fastest but it's really the top the better players are the ones that think about it they have strategies get the high ground, peek out don't do stupid shit run and gun which I grew up in quake and I have a tendency to just run and gun because I'm not thresh level but yes just to go back to the question there are a lot of enhancements supplements that you can do but for me very rarely does it go beyond the line that's cheating obviously it's cheap sniping that's cheating but i wouldn't really consider it thank you reseller reseller so para second hand sila we have a very small second hand list that we maintain you can see it in the video description below reseller you mean like a distributor there are official distributors and we can get radion cards run and gun it's no longer fps for me I still consider cs, quake run and gun I don't need to think anymore personally I feel that's why I'm bad at the latest games like valorant because there are classes involved and you have to think kinda stupid I don't think well you need to have more experience in valorant you need to know the classes, their abilities whereas classic quake is everybody is the same grab a rocket launcher rocket jump things like that but yeah for me cs and quake are still run and gun in my mind as I mentioned that is the wrong way to think about those kinda games alright sorry guys I do gotta bring my add a fusion okay thank you Dominic the youtube videos are hard to are hard to they're a bit of a grind sometimes we try deep cool deep cool or very popular cooler master hyper 212 things like that personally I like deep cool alright guys I really gotta go but thank you so much the audience on this one was a lot more than I expected for a Saturday night I don't have to take the family out thank you for the stream I was able to test this mic pretty well I think I'll be listening to the playback so I can give my comments this is the XI headset will be doing it short about it soon this has been pwede magtanong for this month we still owe two game streams two videos bunch of review videos are coming out also tomorrow I'm either doing live from the shop or a game stream I haven't decided yet yeah so a bit of cramming towards the end of the month to catch up with the deliverables that we need for the sponsor but have a good weekend one last week at the long weekends coming up yeah so thanks so much guys oh smash the omelette hello and goodbye um this one sorry just last on the camera angle this one is a little bit too close to me personally I think so we might go back to the other camera angle in the corner but I really do need to get a lens for this ZV-E10 um I had a lens already that I like from Sony but it broke I also need to get better lighting if you notice like in our more recent videos the background RGB lights from Ulanzi are just crap like about three only ones still works but anyway thank you so much for watching have a good night have a good weekend um please tune in tomorrow I will be streaming again I just don't know if it's a game stream or a live from the shop episode I will try the podcast I mean I really want to get back on that horse
