We Replaced his Crappy Laptop with a DREAM PC!! - ROG Rig Reboot 2018

how's my hair it's beautiful thank you it's ROG reg reboot again and the winners are here at least one of the winners is here this is Shaun and I would like everyone to take a moment both to feel good for him because he's getting a brand new gaming rig courtesy of ROG and he has excellent posture look at his posture his mom actually asked him before he showed up here to make sure that he keeps his posture nice because he she'd hate for other people to see his posture and think that think what no I don't have good posture that would be terrible let's build a rig shall we yeah no you know that's like oh yeah yeah yeah I hate it when people do this because there's no standard way to do it for both gaming and content creation the a Suzy 390 a motherboard is built to last using premium Japanese capacitors learn more at the link below so here's a screwdriver it's like you're not ready yet so Sean where you're from Maple Ridge that's where I'm from you go to Garibaldi no that's probably just as well I went to Garibaldi and we all kind of see how that worked out have you ever built a computer before no never have you at least watched a build video before Oh No yeah I watched the ROG ones and then the super RGB one which is probably why Asus liked you so much as a candidate because those guys are all about RGB all the things you've got an RGB keyboard got an RGB graphics card RGB motherboard with Aris Inc got an RGB cooler you have an RGB Mouse an RGB headset and the case it's probably RGB too so then since you're a seasoned watcher of build videos I'm sure you know where to start oh I'm just gonna go ahead okay if you want to break it's totally up to you I don't want to break it yeah cuz you know if you break it like the whole things over like you get back in your car you go back home and it's over right like it's a test okay so let's go go ahead and get the processor out of the box now this is the heart and soul of your system there's a seal element six cores have a mentor going up to 4.9 gigahertz I still remember when I built my first system I'm just kidding I don't remember that it was a long time ago you are way out ahead of me so Shawn already pointed at that little dot and why is that dot important so you can line it up properly with this arrow that's right are you sure that you don't line it up with the dot though I'm not sure well that's it he's done he's packing it back up he's gonna get out of here with bully crap you are getting two terabytes of solid-state storage normally they do like a hard drive for your games and stuff but you've got an almost terabyte nvme drive and you get a terabyte they Souza pulled out all the stops for you they must really like you hear that sniffle that's his case of the crappy systems I'll stop sniffling by the tens build ends all right now I know Maple Ridge kids fall into one of two camps the ones that play with knives and the ones that play with fire so which one are you I don't know what's the right response only in the wrong hands yeah is that because your dad's sitting there and you won't admit it No so which sticks go in which slots the you're filling them all with the match said yeah yeah okay and then you want to push it down evenly until it clicks in on both sides so that's how you know you got to give a little right there oh there you go one more okay this is a tougher one it'll be the nvme SSD oh very nice this is a brand new I fix it kid Wow we have to do just one side or both I don't know what I usually do is I start with one and then I see what happens any please put this having flashbacks to being a teenager this was my job whenever my dad did something hold the screws in the nails symptoms of crappy system itis include shaking hands not being able to open boxes yeah and the sniffles this way sure why not I don't know how to put it in well it's okay you're pretty young you'll learn later you want to give it a little okay push snug into the socket I'll let you do it though okay um cooler for the CPU you know what sure yeah let's do it let's let's do that that side of the cooler and that crazy when you walked in here you had like an old laptop with onboard graphics I have an Intel T 6400 four gigs of ram ddr2 and that's still what you have because you haven't actually completed the challenge yet tf2 is running it like 15 to like 30 frames per second and all those settings look at the size of these nuts they're bigger so it's gonna be easier to like yeah yeah I mean they're easier to handle which I guess is nice so this is the one that has an oled screen built into the CPU block and I'm gonna do the peel because I can't trust you to do it properly that was worth it shiny this is your mom's sphaghetti dude arms are heavy these builds are too much fun I love this I thought he was like putting on sort of a character like making it a bit more extra for the camera but he's like always active and that much like think excited about everything so what do you think goes on next thermal paste actually yes but no asu's pre-applied your thermal paste Thank You Asus so the screen in the middle here you can actually put anything you want on it you could put like an ROG logo if you were all about that you know thanks ROG for this totally free computer or I mean you could just put like a dick butt on it like whatever I guess well I like working with cables and stuff we could like no you really want to put that SSD in don't you I guess we're gonna do this then are you sure oh we're gonna put it in the case yes yeah this is the part where it gets really fun tempered glass that's nice be careful when it gets matte just boom shatters oh that's not good all right so this is gonna fall off very soon so you should probably yep that's good there you go two hands please very nice okay so talk that away somewhere safe we don't want to scratch that because that is your viewport into your gorgeous system that is a perfect place for it he's putting it in a bin he's not just chucking it on the floor it is heavy don't have crush my fingers then won't be able to use my mouse ten points if you can figure out how to open this before I do I won't I lied on you how now this is something that's always kind of triggered me about these you went to all the effort to print on the bag and you couldn't just say what it's for goes in here sure does other way other way Oh like that no nice wait wait go in I just have it lined up if they're like really force it in yeah pretty much use the force like yeah no no the real force yeah no that's that's movies yes Oh what we can do that yeah let's go nice for a stick here but I guess that's cooler and he's still putting the I oh [ __ ] I'm having a lot of trouble so you hold it by the cooler and use your other hand to guide it in and you're gonna try to guide the rear i/o through the back before you make contact with all of the metal standoffs that are on the motherboard tray you ready I hope correct answer is yes I was born ready and you gotta have like kind of a gruff tone to your voice before ready born ready that's too deep yeah it's done and the screws you're gonna use are the 632 flat flat is the heads of the people who labeled these flat because these are clearly a panhead and they clearly use a Phillips type driver so there's nothing really flat about them so what do you think is next perfect alright so we're gonna put your modular cables onto the power supply first do first 60 that's not good as a drop expert I can tell you that drop was fairly benign yes yes sweet do we need all of them am I just doing this for no reason no you're actually almost done you only need one more cable you know what's really good about a video like this is that you are giving other people the confidence to ask stupid questions and make mistakes but that means I'm doing worse than them right you're late welcome the sacrificial lamb no one died thanks got this cool computer does this plug into the motherboard or is this one going to the basically the rule from here on out with these is if it fits it since we'd have to spend like eight years don't worry your street cred was it was too low kinda down here already anyways since it's fine there's an alignment thing right there maybe these this goes into the motherboard it kind of doesn't work without any of the pieces well you don't really need families well maybe your old system did it but with a twenty atti and a 700 K you're gonna need fans and the reason this part is tricky is because you kind of have to align a that's a technique that I've perfected over the years did you notice I kicked it a little bit before it hit the ground you can arrest some of its momentum before it actually falls and there we are all of our cooling is completely wired up now what do you want to install alright so let's do it okay no you can tell he's almost cured he hasn't sniffled in forever oh that doesn't have to come all the way out that is called a self retaining screw so you see how it has like because of a knob on the end and then a shaft in the middle yeah um they don't really need a screwdriver for this no it was too paid for me oh not strong no that's not it's not big rock it a little bit on the bottom further there you go so these guys separate out your cables nicely so they look all clean and professional okay yes go ahead enjoy it breathe it in I don't know why I was so excited to open this there we go that hurts whoa check Shawn's not something kids just say no trick shots whoa trick shots think no what's that except me no one literally no one the moments you've been waiting for the fastest graphics covered I was having no look if you're not gonna do it right if you're not gonna take this seriously like we can just leave the graphic right you know what there that's it that's a computer forget it it has integrated graphics just like your current one yeah there it is the r-tx 28 et I definitely wasn't expecting that I thought I'd get like a 1080i but the 2880 is really cool now with like however many bazillion heatpipes three fans are a saint compatibility a dual BIOS switch so you can switch between quiet and performance mode and it's super duper duper duper fast open it let's do it hmm let's put it in yeah really heavy see I knew it wasn't there you and that was it your artsy x20 atti is installed well after you put the screws in and put the power connecting yeah so now we just need to find the prettiest spot to bring these guys around which honestly we don't have a ton of great options here so now that I've given up we're just gonna do whatever okay then before anyone gets a chance to look too closely at it I'm gonna close up the back panel and it is beautifully cable managed as far as you know me Dad it's not an eight pin CPU connector why's that got two of those in there you go in there I'm gonna close this up for the last time almost done that looks really cool oh nice really good yeah that is sick like a giant dick but it takes up the whole rest of it that is awesome Alex yeah so the monitor we're hooking this up to is basically one of the finest gaming displays on the market now this guy is 2560 by 1440 resolution up to 165 Hertz pretty much what that means is that your monitor can keep up with your system a lot more than 60 I knew you were here for a reason and it was that contribution that one line this entire experience was leading up to that moment all right go ahead and press the button whoa okay dang we got it wrong that's fine I'm pretty sure we can flip it this is gonna look C yak as the kids say what total memory 32 Meg's sorry I was thinking back to my first computer um press f12 run set up okay I mean sounds good you don't have a choice so we've got pretty much everything while this has touch controls no no no that's pretty cool where's Mike ah attractable make that's what that was yeah does the worm it's the worm still cool it's in effect it's in fortnight here you go oh I don't play for it Nate really no one plays it in my school anymore you kids today you like hearing it one day and boom gone the neck you know what forget it let's just finish this thing up so let's go ahead and put our tempered glass side panel back on complete with laser etched LTT logo okay got you do the pillow you didn't feel well I got places to be festive oh we still got stuff on the some other boys and stuff with any sweet peels don't blow it oh okay yeah you know what probably the least exciting part was screwing everything in here we go you want to screw me in here oh yeah that's a really long time oh but the rest was really interesting really fun you see a scope they're not really all right the sound-dampening in this is like really really good I put it on and like I could barely hear your talking you're just gonna put those there you're not gonna have sound well I'm not gonna play like a full game all right so have you ever nope bonk Wow you just got shrekt man oh is this like team deathmatch yeah why'd you pull out your knife there I almost didn't see him so is gonna run faster you know what I um okay there's okay well that's that's for you oh yeah a sponge it oh he was just looking I wouldn't have given you this computer if I'd known you were gonna do that that is what you get that's the same guy you 100% deserved it anything 250 FPS what is what is that an increase above like 20x yeah more over your old machine all right well now why don't we go for something that's a little bit more demanding so I'm gonna show you how you dial in the optimized settings for a machine like this you go to graphics and you go to highest that's basically it also you should turn motion blur off because it's for chumps yeah I think they're crashing they seem to be distressed about it so it's probably not like a planned crash no that's definitely not oh that's whoa whoops I don't think the seatbelts gonna help you hunt what oh boy she's okay she's gonna pry the rock off the leg and not leg that looks very painful all right you're sort of playing you get to foam the rock so there you go hold wlw Oh oh yeah well this games really hard ah yes this is gonna be fun so results for 3dmark times by extreme better than 83% of all results way above like even the guys running you know 4k gaming pcs or whatever else the case may be you're like way out here so basically of all the giant nerds that like benchmark their systems for fun you're in the top 20% so that's pretty much it thank you ROG and - me too goo for having me out here are you feeling better shot yeah yeah no more coughing no more sniffing excellent actually he's cured he's cured so guys thanks for watching
