Hello, my name is Brian Avance and I'm Jim G. We're from the Penn Image Computing and Science Laboratory. We're here to discuss strategies and the importance of registration and normalization for looking at mouse brain from a variety of modalities. That's the purpose of this registration clinic. This is part of the Waxham Task Force. It's a building infrastructure that allows people to map their own user data into this space. Today's clinic is to allow people to walk in and hopefully advise them on how to do that and registration being the main task which is necessary to be able to do this. Right, so for instance, longer term people would like to be able to automatically search for gene expression patterns across large populations of images that have been stained and they need a tool to automatically be able to localize anatomy into a common space. So what we can see here is an example mouse brain with labeling. Each color represents neuroanatomy and because every individual sample is a little bit different these images have to be deformed and co-localized into the coordinate system such as this in order to achieve this long term goal of the searchable database of anatomy and say gene expression or other cell type, other measurements. And because the data that the users generate are very heterogeneous in nature everybody has their own protocols in which they acquire the data. The purpose of today's registration clinic is actually to help these individuals with some kind of nature of their own data in terms of how the tools that they're developing that were made available through INCF might be adapted or refined to help them map their own data into INCF waxing space. And because the tools that we use in this application area are very general we also are supporting users who have general registration or segmentation problems and we try to promote a core infrastructure that's using a variety of domains.


Is this person emotionally mature enough to be in a relationship and are they capable? This is why when two people are attracted to one another, this is the time to ask the really hard questions. This is the time to ask those deeper questions to a person. This is the time to evaluate their past relationship. If you are an employer about to hire an employee, okay? You would wanna know everything about their past work experience. You'd wanna find the longevity of their past work experience. You might even wanna call some references to some of those past employers to actually get a gauge of how they would navigate new employment. You would do that.


community to talk about the new builds we've done recently, what items we have in the shop, new stock as well as old stock that we can recommend, and basically just talking about what we've been doing at the shop. But as with any livestream or most of our livestreams before that, we should get the ad out of the way. Legit, safe, and pinakamura, madadila o morder.

Check out CDKoffer.com Check out CDKoffer.com Check out CDKoffer.com So I mentioned that we usually take this time to talk about the stuff we've done at the shop. The problem is, we've been so busy the past 2-3 weeks na if you've been to the shop in that time frame, alam mo na sobrang gulo. Like there have been boxes piled up.  So parang tuloy-tuloy lang siya and Nelson04 from YouTube. So we've been super busy in the past 3 weeks and now is the only time that the shop has kind of gone back to normal in terms of what it looks like. So let me just pan the camera around. I did not bring my DroidCam camera. Sorry, usually I use DroidCam as a way to bring the camera around but I forgot to bring a stand for the cell phone so I can't do that. But if you've been to the shop the past month or 4-3 weeks ago, there was a whole bunch of stuff there in the background by the door and then this entire place was piled up also. So this is boxes galore. But now we have gone back to normal. Everything is quite... I apologize for my panning. It's not so smooth. So it is super clean compared to how it's been like may be the past month or so. But that being the case, we don't... There aren't a lot of new builds to talk about because we... Actually we have one build that we're doing. But anyway, let's talk about this. Soap liya magnaya. Yes, I can send it. I think I still have the document which was way back when. But I think I still have it. I can send it to you via Facebook Messenger. Soap DXNC. So this is a Montec case that we're using to do a benchmarking of ROG AIOs. So this is the first AIO. We got this AIO maybe six months or so ago, and I've been using it in my house. But then ASUS sent over one of their more later AIOs. So I think this came out just two months ago. So this is kind of new on the market. The Ryujin. So this is the Ryujin 3. So it has everybody's favorite LCD screen. So you can't go premium AIO now without an LCD screen. Although this one had a screen before but it was kind of... We do have a review on the channel. It used the kind of pixelated kind of graphics of the design aesthetic that ASUS was kind of pushing with their latest gen hardware. But this LCD screen, sorry, the Ryujin LCD screen is the one that we're used to that you can find on the NZXTZ series on the MSI. We had an MSI AIO like last year that looked very similar to this, kind of like rectangular or square water block or the LCD screen plops on to the water block here. So it does give the AIO a bit more... It looks very massive, the AIO. Actually, I really like the Ryujin. So this one, even though you can't put gifts on it and you can just play around with the pixelated... The effect is pixelated on purpose. I quite enjoyed this one. But I gave it back. So I was using it in my personal rig, not that my personal rig can get very hot. I'm just using Ryzen 3700X. But I was using it just to, you know, kind of... another AIO just to... just to get actual hands-on experience with this particular AIO. And I grew quite fond of the... So both are 360mm rad AIOs. Sorry, you can't see the... the Ryu one. But both are 360mm rads. I'm fond of this one. I like the pixelated aesthetic. But this is the latest and greatest from ASOS, but I had to give back the Ryu because we are testing it in the shop now. So we're doing a head-to-head against the Ryu and the Ryujin. All right. I'm going to go through the chat. Matthew from YouTube. Regarding PSU, kasi weird po ang nag-research. Pwede na po ba 600W 500-600X and 600-800W.  It's not a mid-range card so it's kind of upscale na. And, you know, at that price point, you might as well at least go for 650W. 600W, you know, probably would be okay, but you don't want probably.  Why not spend a little bit more at 650W? I notice your question, should you upgrade? Which means that you already have the 600W PSU now. Kung ganon, just use it and then bara pan sinin mo lang kung nag-throtol ba yung GPU mo. If you're having performance issues, that might be because the PSU can't provide enough power to the GPU. But since you already have it now, kung baka it's nothing, you don't need to spend anything. And if maganda naman yung performance at the settings that you need it for, depending on the resolution that you're playing, on the version of 6800, you should probably play at least 2K, so 1440p. Yeah, then just try it out. Kung okay naman with your settings, then no need to upgrade your PSU. Pero if you're having weird performance issues, like you're not getting the frame rates you're expecting, or big lang makakrasya, one reason might be that the PSU is underpowered. And for that, you know, if you think we're a new rig, like you're really gonna shell out for a PSU. I would suggest 650W, but if it's already something that you already have, keep it nalang muna. And then sabugan muna, yun yat, kung makaproblema, then that's a time na pwede mo yung upgrade yung PSU. Sup, Ryujin? I don't know if... Speaking of Ryujin, I don't know if you took your name after the AIO, but we're testing this guy. Thank you so much for the referral. If he messages us on Facebook, I'll look out for it. Sixty gay! Actually, I can get you a very decent rig these days. So, that is a good budget to work with. Silverstone, we haven't really sold a lot, so I can't say. I mean, I'm... I prefer to base our recommendations on our personal experience here at the shop, so any yung data na na-collect namin. A lot of seasonic PSUs, Corsair, bit of MSI. FSB, we've sold a lot in the past, and now we're starting to pick up again. Yung Silverstone kasi we have very little experience. I mean, it is a recognized brand in the sense na matagal na rin sila. So, you can take that for what it's worth. I really don't have any personal experience. So, I couldn't say anything. I couldn't recommend it one way or the other. If the price is good, does medya 80 plus gold yung certification? I'd take the plunge. Some people fault us for relying on the 80 plus certification as a stand-in for quality. Kasi, as they rightly point out, hindi naman siya quality the higher the 80 plus rating, whether that's white, bronze, gold, platinum, then titanium, that doesn't really mean anything. Hindi siya directly correlated sa quality. What it just means is that the colors go up, the higher your 80 plus rating, the more efficient your PSU is, meaning that the power that it gets from your wall outlet it needs, it's closer to the optimal if you need 750 watts, because there is waste coming in. Hindi talagang 750 watts from the wall outlet and 750 watts to the PSU, but the more efficient your PSU is, the closer it will be. I forget the exact metrics per tier. So it's not really a direct correlation for quality, but a lot of people substitute it for quality and I tend to agree because to get higher efficiency scores you need to have better components inside the PSU. I'm not alone in this, I know that I used to keep it to myself to be honest because a lot of people online are very opinionated and in my mind it was very logical to get higher optimizations to get higher tiers on the 80 plus rating scale, you need a better components inside and yung maganda sa 80 plus it is an outside certification, you need to meet certain requirements to garner the 80 plus rating. Hindi lang basta-basta yung brand na nagsabi na oh, you know, ganito yung testing results namin. But I wouldn't, you know I was a bit shy to say so before but I saw an old video of Jase 2 Sense where he basically says the same thing, I think that it can be a substitute for quality because the components that you need, you need to get better components to get higher and higher efficiency ratings. And so, well, it's a YouTube na it's like a numbers game just because a YouTuber with 1 million plus subs so it's more convincing than a YouTuber with 100,000 or 50,000 things. But at least now, you know if somebody complains that I can say, well Jase 2 Sense thinks so and then you know I just tossed them the link. But in my mind it is not a one to one correlation an 80 plus platinum or titanium can break down faster than an 80 plus gold. But in general, I think it is a good proxy for quality. So Silverstone, I'm not I don't have a lot of personal experience with it but if it's 600 watts, 80 plus gold and at a good price then ya, I'd roll the dice on it. Saap? Mr. Yodomos? Saap Luigi? I know, usually we try to do life from the shop every when it's a new class day when there's no work because I have done it several times now where there is work so customers come in pero na ilang ako. I mean it's very, it's weird like the shop business is going on around me but I'm just talking to the camera so I do like these quiet times and I do you know, during the pandemic when we were allowed to go out na but people still weren't out en masse I used to like to come to the shop just to see kinda relax at the shop get out of the house, relax at the shop and I would be secure in a month since it was a no work day no one would come in to the shop while I was there and so I would do life from the shop we do try to do this once a month and actually it's been very productive for usually feature builds that are waiting to be picked up from the shop and other shop news, new items and things like that and it's been very successful in terms of conversion, like people watch the live stream and they're like oh well this is the kind of computer that hardware sugar can do. I know of at least one customer na ka, dalawang rig na siya sa amin and then these full rigs and I really remember him kasi nag chat siya dito sa chat ng life from the shop I was doing a life from the shop and then he messaged dito sa chat and then one thing led to another and he really bought a full rig that was like 3 years ago and then just this year he updated to another new rig na this customer he gets the bonkers rig so 3900k, 4090 I think it was a 4090 and then other rig for his friend was a 4080 I think if I remember correctly so those were pretty bonkers times Tyler we do not at the moment we do carry a lot of colorful gpu's though pretty much if it's a home network if it's a home network and even if it's transferring large files like you want to use the nas as a media storage device you put your videos there then you stream it or over LAN cable or over wifi to other devices that's completely fine you don't need faster performance for that actually speaking of nas we have the customer so this customer is a professional kind of video guy he also has his own youtube channel much larger than ours but not in the tech space so he bought several computers from us and he was asking us can you come up with basically a nas for us because right now we're just relying on external drives and he's like terabytes and dami na na yung video files but it's such an inefficient process that they're dumping their video files dito sa external storage and then they're just passing it around sa computers i guess na mga editors nila at the time i said na you know we don't really have a lot of experience with that but it's still been in my mind like a good computer to recommend for that kind of use service yung professional talaga na hardcore na yung need video transfers at a very high rate and a lot of internal storage for that and what kind of CPU would you need and funnily enough and then i found linus at a video a couple yes the disgraced linus Sebastian of linus tech tips but he had a good video a couple of months ago where he does a video where he makes the kind of computer for another youtuber who isn't as technical as him and then i was basically thinking of copying the specs and seeing what we could do here for our customers i'm just going to try to sit down and find the parts because yung people yung server level CPU the case they used to structural design but it had space for like oodles of hard drives i think 10-12 i forget how many base they were able to get in there so i need to sit down and check with our suppliers that we can get and i'll recommend that to our customer it's a very niche kind of requirement but i also like i don't like when a customer comes to us and we tell them i'm sorry we just really can't do it we try our best to at least give something that we know would perform well naman so it didn't sit well with me that we really couldn't recommend something specifically for him and number two if he does agree then we get to play around with new parts we don't usually do server level kind of CPUs and things like that so the requirement is that it has to transmit very quickly over the network it has to have expandable space and it has to have a ton of space so that's something i'm interested in proposing to the customer it may kind of like a cold not cold in the sense of the tone but it's like a blind inquiry i mean we're shooting in the dark kumbaga sa government para unsolicited proposal i mean he was completely cool na i basically said sorry we don't have a lot of experience with that i would be a little iffy on what you recommended and i did recommend another shop to help him also so he was like we weren't able to get something so it's like a professional level na specifically for moving large video files so i'm just going to copy basically the linus build maybe tweak it a little bit and then see how that goes so linus is still useful na man so yes yes liya magnaya the macrober one that's the one sorry i couldn't remember what you made it for yes so linus na man is still useful going through some rough times right now but hopefully he can pull it together i don't naman ako partisan either way i enjoy linus i also enjoy watching steve from gamers nexo so it's not like i'm partisan either way good budget i may take skase cool matrix good airflow static rgb light if you're getting it for a kid or we also recommend the montec air 100 light the problem is everybody is sold out i've been trying for the past two months six weeks to get restocked but it's just out of stock this one is also a montec which we recommend it's the montec air i forget what they call this but it comes na kasi with rgb fans so the cheaper one saan is the montec air 100 light so it has the nice mesh front you get a lot of good airflow it's reasonably priced and then i think you do get fans but they're not rgb sorry i forget what they call this one but it's on our website naman but this one is like mga 3000 i think or so mas muro talaga yung air 100 light no luck so far we don't carry them in the shop but tecware is a popular choice tecware actually copies a lot of other designs well so like they have the they copy a lian lee design and ndxt design and when you look at it it can pass on its surface as a more premium case but the price is quite good we used to carry them in the shop but then we don't anymore not for issues naman about the quality it's just that the supply every time i would ask the supplier na oh in stock namin tecware they would tell me no auto stock auto stock until finally i got tired of asking i do understand na may priority sila like they favor the bigger shops they want to stock the bigger shops more and well i mean ganun talaga i mean we're a small shop and if they wanna play it like that i mean i won't kill myself also to try to get tecware but okay naman yung brand for cases that's another option a lot of people do a lot of people go rock r a k k the rock ones i kinda the price is really good yes but like quality wise like if you spend a bit more like the one tech is appreciably better quality but if you're not gonna be the one building that might be okay if you just go with a rock if you like how it looks you don't care like building experience and the quality of the material and you know doesn't feel like hero when you knock on the sides so you know yeah rock and tecware have their place naman although here the shop usually in deep cool matrex 43 fs also the mac cube 110 although there have been some concerns about the airflow but i will say we have sold a lot of 110s and no one has come back like oh you know my cpu went kaput because it didn't have airflow so yeah so the mac cube once the 110s i still feel comfortable recommending them not as good airflow maybe as the matrex 40 or the one tech but you know for a lot of builds very decent enough and the price is good okay this is turning into a subkaiser this is turning into a pwede magtanong episode okay naman as extension where naka saksak yung desktop sure minus isopanyo avr well you want the avr at the end so you plug everything into your extensions into the extension wire and then that extension wire you plug into the avr and then that avr you plug into the wall outlet but as with any extension the more extension wires the more things you plug into an extension wire the higher the risk of a fire so you know it's i don't really um i wouldn't suggest plugging everything into just the very basics into the extension wire kung kaya like the pc and the monitor yun na yun but you know because these days usually with the pc comes the monitor comes the router maybe a second monitor what other things lamps fans so the other things that you have around you for your computer setup and fans actually use up a lot of amps i think that's different from volts but you know the initial turning on of a fan my friend Marvin was the one who told me that and you know you don't want a lot of juice basically running through your extension especially if the extension is kind of cheap and low quality although the panther wants to pretty good that being said what i do is i divide so i have two basic extensions and i have four monitors i have a desktop four monitors the router the fan so i have two separate extension blocks and they go different places i mean i plug them into two different wall outlets and then i divide like the wires that need to get plugged in there na konwod so far di pa na suno ging bahay ko it's a little under it's a little you probably would get people complaining it's a little bottleneck so the cpu is a little slower than what you compare usually with the 4070 but if you're into gaming this one would be okay and you're trying to save on the budget medyo okay na ito for me in most cases gaming you use a lot of the gpu so any performance decrease from the cpu lagging behind there might be some but it's very negligible you don't really need to worry about it too much usually you get something like a 5700x higher than the 5600 it's not even you might want to overclock it so you can get it a bit more but if it's just for gaming and you're trying to save a few bucks i would be okay personally i would be okay with that setup although my opinion would be in the minority a lot of people would complain that it's bottleneck in the cpu i've mentioned many many times in many many videos so i think the bottlenecking concern is a bit overstated masyado na ako focus yung mga tao sa bottleneck compared to other things like saving money on the cpu instead of focusing that if this is for gaming then the gpu will be doing 95% very a lot of the crunching that's needed the performance that's needed for games so a lot of people tend to get fixated on the bottleneck issue which is not even a static issue it can change depending on the game depending on the settings of the game that you're running on so i tend to take bottlenecking concerns to the grain of salt but a lot of people and i feel that a lot of people use it as a bloodjohn na parang ginagamit lang nila para oh, mga bottleneck yan and you sound like such an expert because you're denigrating can you criticize me and build it sounds like you're saying something intelligent about the build oh, bottlenecking it sounds technical it sounds like you know something but really i find that that is overstated advice it's given way too often for me personally so 5600 with a 4070 if you have good reasons for doing so one, it's mostly for gaming two, you're trying to save some money then yes, that would be okay with me sipan, sipap, dreadnod any thoughts on LTT scandal quality reviews in about ex-employees i do i guess wait, i'll just go through the chat and then grab it go nuts man, go 5000 series all the way na, from 2000 to 5000 i believe the B450 boards should take them no problem after a BIOS update thank you AMD for continuing AM4 compatibility all from rising 1000 all the way up to 5000 although AMD was a little sneaky they were trying to initially i forget which motherboard it was but they were saying we can't fit it in the instructions for that particular chipset so we can't itong chipset na ito hang ng dito na lang siya but since so many people complained if i remember correctly all AM4 motherboards can't still take 5000 series and i think that's definitely true for the B450 so go nuts best CPU upgrade 5600, 5600X go big na go to the latest na na 5000 series this is a this is a i do not know my personal monitor and i did see monikers bait chat message couple of minutes ago na my favorite among my 4 monitors my primary monitor is a 48 inch i cannot imagine putting it on a monitor arm to be honest yung desk ko ngayon so it's a built in desk when i transfer to where i live now i had already a desk pre-installed so it's not like this kind of desk na you can move it around kung baka nakasalpak na siya in my home office and i've noticed it's starting to it's starting to bend i'm not sure because i don't jump on the desk i don't know why it would bend but i am 15% afraid na in the middle of the night i'll hear a crash, i'll run downstairs and bumigay na siya my beautiful 48 inch monitor was a victim of weak wood bumigay siya and it collapsed i think i only notice the bend after i got the 48 inch so it is a very small it's very thin the screen but it is for the 8 inches it is heavy i cannot imagine using a monitor arm for it so i do not know but if you do know please message us because i would seriously consider that because i would drill that into the wall so talaga cemento para solid you have the talks there and then it expands inside the cement so that my monitor would not be resting on my desktop anymore because may bend na siya i forget i fear for the monitor why not tapos para overkill you get the new corsair shift once na they're on the side para magadating na ergotron monitor arm i have not heard usually what you use in the shop at the home is north bayu this monitor arm is north bayu i haven't heard of ergotron but i will check it out now i will check it out usually amazon has yung mga na surprise items like that so up o seer i think you watched i am not sure if you were also around for a crypto stream or the stream before that i have a good friend who's last name is o seer kind of stuck in my mind it was the mark rober one sorry it was the mark rober one liya magnaye do you guys do cleaning for gpu ai o and yung pinang case? yes we do although those are separate services so we have a deep cleaning of the rig itself but that doesn't include gpu cleaning and then we can also clean the gpu whereby we open up the gpu and replace the thermal pad so we really go inside the gpu hindi lang like blower from the outside so i glanced off camera because we did have a gpu being cleaned but i think na pick up nasa i was going to show you sana well let me check we also do laptop cleaning as well we have an open laptop here now but i don't want to touch that yes sorry guys all of our gpu that we have been cleaning have been sent out already sorry it's not like i'm stalling for time there was actually something i wanted to show it's not just like i'm chilling with the camera so this is the first time that we have legit 4080 4080 47 4070 and 4060 this is the first time i mean we've carried 40 series and get them as custom orders 4090s and things like that but this is the first time this is the first time that we have all of these 6070 and 80 although i am kind of cheating with this presentation because this 4080 is actually not for sale it's a custom order the customer got it for a full rig i forget what the cpu i'm assuming it's like a 1300k if i remember correctly we're still waiting for the other parts particularly we're still waiting for some parts kaya na dito siya ngayon but this should be in the custom portion but it's very rare i don't think we ever had the complete basic line 60, 70, 80, 90 all available at one time and i see we're out of 1660 supers also my work schedule is every Monday or every start of the week i take a look at the logs to see what items we are out of and i contact the suppliers and you can get very confusing what is out of stock and what are for custom order and then you go to the suppliers it can get super confusing actually you can let's say i'm out of a particular cpu and i go to my MSI supplier yung cpu kasi usually nakabundl yan with the motherboard, tapos may discount if you get both motherboard and cpu so i go to my MSI supplier but then the MSI supplier is like ah sorry, wala yung 5600x for example so then i need to completely remember that ok wala na hindi ko na ordering 5600x and i need to go to my gigabyte supplier and order the same cpu but now i need to find a motherboard usually in stock usually in stock pa kasi yun kung out of stock ng MSI usually in stock may gigabyte and vice versa but now i'm forced to get from the gigabyte supplier because i'm after that discount so now i need to figure out what mobo do i want to go long on ko baga what i want to overstock off of a motherboard or like i usually get the Zotac 4060 but then the Zotac 4060 is out of stock that's why we ended up with a pallet 4060 so like different price ranges different manufacturers, different models it can get on the first day of a week my like my first two hours can get pretty confusing yeah but so yeah this is a custom order this is like a super beefy super beefy like it's physically heavy i mean like it takes some effort for me to to carry it yes alright yes the cameras the ZV-810 liya magnaya i have not fixed my lens so if you've seen that short that we published this month my sony lens the 35mm f1.8 wow it's like i actually know these stupid i'm sorry i mean in my mind kasi it's like i don't know anything about camera that i can rattle off some specs um makes me think like i know more than i do probably not but yeah my lens crapped out on me so i got a sigma one which came very highly recommended like you watch the reviews online but i still miss the sony and i am annoyed actually that um i was just getting kasi yung sony na yan i really left it in the shop so i bought it like last year pa i put it in the shop so that you know when they get b-roll at the shop meron sila and i've been using the stock lens forever with the zv-810 but then i decided when jay left when jay resigned jay was really good with the camera but i'm like well now is my turn to play around with the camera so i got the sony lens and i was using it like if you've seen our video my laptop review video i believe that one was shot the a-roll of that was shot so there's such a nice background it's a little blurred um and then it crapped out on me i don't know what happened we have two zv-810s and it doesn't work on both so logic suggests that it is the lens and not the camera body and i don't know what happened to it maybe you know the contacts i'll try cleaning it with alcohol but i'm just really annoyed because i came to really like that lens in the short time that i was using it it was a little better than the than the stock lens but i still miss the 35mm from sony na f1.8 atta sya sub jjs i know right but the sigma one this one came very highly recommended pero yung sigma ayung sony talagang gande yeah so i was a little annoyed na i mean i acknowledge i mean i'm not blaming anybody i acknowledge it broke with me i'm just annoyed that i don't know why it broke i just used it and i put it down for the night and the next day when i came back to it it wasn't working anymore it wasn't connecting anymore to the camera so it's a little bit annoyed because i'm used with the computer i can kind of understand although that's actually also like the last time my psu crapped out on me two or three years ago it was a course here although yun may ano na ako it's not connecting anymore parang uminit sya naman matayin nalang sya by itself so oba raluma na ng course here na yun so RIP it served me well naman but yun as a pc guy for a long time medya may kutub ka ne na may bibigay na but it's like this sony lens the death came for it like a thief in the night i couldn't um i didn't have time to prepare so na i'm thinking of getting the same lens but experimented with the sigma the sigma is okay but yun nga i still prefer the sony one so anyway 1.8 jay has actually shot with the sigma one so he's been able to use it also but he agrees with me that iba talaga yung sony are we ranking now are we ranking youtubers bakit parang nagka kaubusan nyan nung yes no i think what happened there you don't actually want that for AI for AI you need a lot of VRAM actually what gamers need the AI guys also need so you don't really want those kind of lower tier GPUs nakakaubusan because that is what AMD wants because there are 7000 series sobrang minarket nila they price down the lower end of the 6000 series sobrang competitive na yun price it's really good bang for your buck and the market responded sobrang mura nung 6000 okay naman performance nila for that price then i'm gonna get it and we ourselves even the PC shops yung mga suppliers namin wala na ubus na rin so we can't get those lower end 6000 GPUs anymore so not so much that there's one market segment cornering all of the supply for AI research you wouldn't want those lower tier 6000 series so it's just really more a function of the market na the price went down people have been buying more and the supply is also limited na because AMD is transitioning to the 7000 which is why they cut the price in the first place they wanted to make it more attractive para what is the term flush out na kong baga na yung mga sold out na yung mga 6000 GPUs 6000 series GPUs um that is true also but we have just like as a backs to like behind the scenes we have been trying to restock actually because a lot of people have been requesting so it's also a function of it's true that the distributors here stock more heavily just like we do in favor of NVIDIA and trying actually because a lot of people have been requesting it's quite hard to find na I don't know sorry I forget the specs you'd have to post them yes yep sup moniker yep like the 6000 series na if you can get it at a good price it's really good value I will admit to a fondness for NVIDIA at this point just because I prefer RTX I don't even know like on an objective level if I really can't see the difference but in my mind the conceptual improvement of RTX like lighting they actually get lighting and RTX can allow that kind of lighting for me the RTX performance is really better parin on NVIDIA cards and even you know lighting performance at DLSS performance usually better on NVIDIA cards also more stable drivers sorry I didn't want this to sound like oh pro NVIDIA whatever but especially if you're not inclined to try to troubleshoot on your own or tinker around the drivers for like hours on end NVIDIA is a more straightforward approach you RTX kasi before NVIDIA solved that hardware problem it was like the holy grail for academics just the thought that you could have a light source and then toss it around wherever in your screen people before said it was impossible and this wasn't even like for games or anything just as an academic point of discussion people thought before that the kind of lighting that you get in RTX would be impossible on our desktops NVIDIA gets a lot of flak but in fairness they solved that engineering problem they figured out what kind of hardware was needed to generate that effect to properly crunch the numbers to display that kind of image that they wanted I think RTX can be really improved pasamore in terms of the visual quality but just the basic problem being solved by NVIDIA I don't think a lot of people give them a lot of credit credit where credit is due will I will refrain from plugging my monitor yet again but the 48 inch which is OLED is pretty darn good I mentioned this in the I talked about this on the live stream sorry on the live stream on the podcast which dropped last Friday you can check it out on our Spotify and things like that the links are not actually in this video description but in all of our other videos and live streams usually pago pas ko that is why I'm doing this live stream now because I was at Balay Dakot this morning my in-laws really like it my father-in-law loves that place and we're there super early I like eating there also but we have to wake up at ass o clock man basically at 7 when it opens we were there a little later like 7.15 we were there but my father-in-law was there like 6 o'clock or something and the wild thing was he wasn't even the first one there they were second but yeah yeah that was me we stayed there a long time because you know we like eating the food is pretty good although I have to I'm a little annoyed with Balay Dakot this trip kasi wala na silang bood-bood or the Tagalogs call it suman I love their bood-bood Balay Dakot it's really sticky good quality you have it with mango oh, sarap but they didn't have bood-bood this time wala daw delivery or I guess they weren't able to make in their pantry so I'm a little annoyed with Balay Dakot but the food's still good they moved it na from upstairs to downstairs anyway for those of you who are not familiar with Balay Dakot it is an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet on the weekends and holidays Tagaytay it's by Antonio's and it's a very nice it's a very old house that they converted into a restaurant so it's on the cliffside overlooking Tagaytay so it's night's weather you're eating good food it's all you can eat breakfast buffet the variety is good yeah, yeah so we're there di naman madalas like once every six months or so but yeah in particular my father-in-law really loves that restaurant my only thing guys I have to wake up at as o'clock to get there but it was pretty good sometimes because we usually go up there on holidays usually traffic but this particular three-day holiday I think a lot of people left early so I noticed within the metro and even going to Tagaytay coming home traffic was pretty good the mall parking like we were at the mall yesterday and stuff o'kay naman that is how I like my holidays to be leisurely ang hirap kasi ang mga holidays like you want to go out and then a lot of people are also going out and then as the family driver this is stress ako but it was very easy driving today you know we sorry I'm just going to super quickly sorry there are a lot of messages I haven't been able to this question from Libra we have an upcoming video where basically the entire video just me answering questions and then we solicited some questions on our discord it was Ren and Rocky the programmer who went through the questions I didn't see them para spontaneous when I actually read the question spontaneous yung reaction ko and spontaneous yung sagut ko so I didn't read the questions nans at discord but I understand there were a lot of interesting questions I'm not quite sure not quite sure Ren wouldn't tell me what the questions were but apparently there were questions I feel that there were questions along these lines like I want to come up with a witty answer because my friend sent me recently a clip of David Tenant if you're not a sci-fi fan I'm a super big sci-fi fan I watched Doctor Who but I haven't finished the latest Doctor yet and there's going to be a new Doctor na anyway David Tenant is my favorite Doctor Who is my favorite Doctor DT DT the best and then my friend recently sent me a clip where he's like super witty about this body talk fortunately my wit has failed me and I really can't come up with anything to like I don't think the answer is particularly in basically I'll do it anywhere and the lighting conditions are not a problem for me so lights on and lights off that is the lighting is not really my concern can be RTX on can be RTX off that's not really a concern for me I wonder kung lumobas yun sa discord questions so this one I talked about it briefly actually the whole podcast was devoted to it but my own personal thoughts about it I said it in brief the reviews I can actually sympathize with the reviews because as an audience it's super easy to figure out how come the host didn't get basic information the videos everything is synthesized for you for the viewer hours of benchmarking and testing synthesized into one graph that is displayed for five seconds literally hours of work distilled into five seconds of a still image so it's hard sometimes to appreciate the level of work that goes on behind the scenes and we're a very small YouTube channel compared to line-as-tech tips our testing methodologies are not as advanced I would assume although there's have a lot of errors I'm sure hours if you want to nitpick I'm sure you could nitpick the heck out of what we do because we just do a very basic test but we try to get as I mentioned in the podcast we try to get the basic type of data and the basic numbers down properly so we can come up with a fair assessment of the product whether this is something that we want to recommend to our viewers and one thing that's very different about our YouTube channel compared to any other YouTube channel kahit man lang LTT or Gamers Nexus is that we often put our money where our mouth is you'll notice we will review a case and then suddenly we're selling it because if we sell it when you're thinking so what if you sell it di naman kayo yung gumagamit noon but we are the ones na taya if something goes wrong with that build and we recommended that case na spangit pala yung air flow or whatever the customer will come back to us hassle yung para sa amin we are we maintain a connection a very strong connection actually to all of the builds and all of the hardware that we sell out kasi sino nalapita ni customer kung magaproblema not the brands but kami so it's in our best interest to recommend products that we can rely on that won't give us a headache na masisira kaagad nang bakaka problema configuration issues whatever so even unlike you know gamers nexus can do 50 weeks of testing 50 hours 150 hours of testing you can buy you can build a $250,000 room to test the sound how loud component is so if there's a methodology we have very basic methodology but we really try to get the basic numbers accurately so we can give a fair assessment of the product and because we also rely on that ourselves a lot of the products that we test we end up carrying them in the shop so a lot of the time especially for the deep cool products I hate I told our deep cool supplier I've told our deep cool contact because we have contact with the country manager from the brand itself not the supplier I hate it when you guys send me stuff buying the things that you send for example so that happens a lot with the coolers let me just sorry go off camera for a little bit just so I can pluck this from our shelf wait lang sorry excuse me hang on hang on so like this guy for example oh man this is so tight how did they get these things out when we need them to oh my god alright here we go so deep cool I think we were the first ones in the Philippines to show a test model sorry a pre-production model of the digital series of the AK that was one of our shorts so we have a good relationship with deep cool but yunya I have jokingly tell them I hate it when you send me new stuff because if we test it we really like the performance and we end up buying it stocking it in the shop for cases and for the coolers so here we have the AK620 digital we really like the AK620 which deep cool sent us that we reviewed we like the looks of the digital so yeah now we're stocking it we are actually supposed to do a deep dive they're gonna send us a bunch of coolers we're just waiting for it from the supplier yeah so you can nitpick a lot about our testing methodology certainly we don't have the resources also of larger YouTube channels but what's also unique about us is that we put our money where our mouth is very often you will see products that we have tried out sent to us for review then we start stocking them in the shop because we ourselves are happy with the quality of the product we know that it won't let the customer down because if it lets the customer down kami rin mong perwisho we would be the ones to have to do the RMA to replace it or something like that or liquid 240R from MSI but long time viewers already know the saga behind that one and to be fair we actually haven't carried MSI AIOs after that although to be fair parang currently medyo okay naman sila ngayon post big cases the Y60 for me looks better like aesthetically airflow wise you'd probably maybe be better off with an H9 flow like kung airflow lang yung consideration mo the Y60 kasi I don't know if it's fair to say that it's not a great airflow case again we've built a lot of performance builds in the Y60 never pa naman na kaproblema overheating or otherwise but I think just in terms of raw air performance the H9 flow probably would perform better but aesthetic but you know it's just the H9 flow is a much more traditional looking case compared to the Y60 so it really comes down to are you just like a performance guy and you want like the best kind of airflow you can possibly get or are you more like aesthetics like oh I wanna look in my case it looks like an aquarium and looks pretty good personally for me I not that super obsessed with getting the best kind of airflow possible so I would probably go with a Y60 heck my case now is the Thermaltake and that's basically an open air case so that's actually kind of terrible for airflow because there is no flow it's just getting ambient air from all around so the air gets sucked into the part and gets sucked out again but what you really want sana with airflow is that it's very concentrated it's like a tunnel you're sucking air dito sa harap and then it's being fed into the parts that need cold air then the hot air gets exhausted upward and outward so that is the flow but with open air cases like the Corp P3 you don't have that kind of tunnel effect you just have you're just swapping out the air immediately with the ambient air there's no flow involved so just to illustrate that I'm not really super obsessed with getting the coldest possible temps the best possible airflow so if it were me between these two cases I would probably go with the Y60 because I think it looks more interesting they've got a nice bunch of colors and things like that so but again that's just me it's really up to you a lot of people apparently I've been asking about the Linus thing my brother has one actually I'd be tempted because I find the problem with my desk now it's too high and my chair is too low so pa naka nakaangat yung shoulder ko so medyo it gets sore here so the ideal should be kind of like this like so it's flat it's like this it's flat this is the ideal or at the most this ito kasi nakaangat so taro nga yung mgaangat dito so I have actually been wanting a long time to replace it but then sobrang hassle because I'd have to get to people to come over and knock down the built-in desk that's in my house now and things like that it's kind of annoying subclied ergotron I mean again you can go super into depth which one has better pressure to really push the air in and then the RPMs and stuff but if you like the aesthetic and yes the the uni fans do look a lot better no offense to the stock fans at Deep Pool but just aesthetic wise yes the stock the uni fans do look a lot better so yeah go for it I agree Kaiser the torrent that's pretty I'm good air flow okay okay I don't know get into that and so yes every five months it's fine that's probably maybe a bit overkill once a year probably is enough and this is from somebody who shop does cleaning I mean you know charges for cleaning so like you might think we would suggest like every three months kailangan every month but yeah you know every year once a year is fine um well we ship nationwide naman or you know we can we ship wherever so you can message us and then we'll send it I mean then you send payment and then that's it I mean we've been able to we've been able to send bills all around the Philippines no actually all the upgrades have been RAM sometimes storage I mean in this case you are asking about storage but not from HDD to SSD yes you can we would be happy to help the guys in the shop are super familiar we've seen a whole range of budget definitely something we can do pop over when you mean by working usually kasi you need to have the format I mean sorry the protocol I mean if your router is Wi-Fi 6 then the device to get the Wi-Fi 6 speed then you need to have a Wi-Fi 6 device also so they need to be on the same protocol or sub-ITX addict I've got a taking advantage of the no-class day-to-day and to push out the content that we need the content that we need for our beloved sponsor who really does help us out a lot that that continuous sponsorship is super useful for the shop okay the programmer what's going on with your internet I think I'm not mistaken so I just go back to Wi-Fi 6 because I've been meaning to do a video on it but I haven't done proper research it's supposed to have better service more devices simultaneously better and faster speeds and what caught my interest is that I think it uses shorter wavelengths instead of the long waves shorter wavelengths but I'm not too sure but yeah I was kinda interested in to do a video on that but yun nga you need to have the same protocol so your like your phone and your laptop they need to be Wi-Fi 6 in order to be able to get Wi-Fi 6 speed well the max of the 5000 series is the R9 5950X if you're going down that route then you should probably at least get an X570 so you have PCI-E lanes to maximize that but if you're into gaming the 5950X is not the best value for money that would go to the 5800X3D but just in terms of like what is the fastest 5000 series that you can slap in of AM4 then that's the 5950X shoutout JD sorry I know that you were on the stream yesterday I do apologize if I mentioned JP I'm not I know I'm not dyslexic but I think my my mind likes to shortcut a lot so I know more JP's than JD so when I see the two letters together usually my mind just flashes JP but I did want to say sorry I'm not sure if I say I think like my first hi to you yesterday was hi to JP but thank you JD for watching their food their food is pretty good I love getting invited to wedding receptions at Antonio's the food's always good and yeah they have a lot of restaurants balay daco breakfast at Antonio's then Antonio's itself yung medyo palaob not on the side of the creator a lot of stuff there okay I'll just the ROG PG we are having a little bit of problem with the aircon but building admin says that we they will clear it up if it's just one person like me mag-isa lang ako medyo okay naman but I understand like you know when there are people and you know we have a lot of guys in the shop then it can get quite hot I shot here last week that video where I just basically answer a bunch of questions yeah it did get a little hot grave I know right I don't know why my supplier can't get me a terra and they also couldn't get me the previous one before that north we also couldn't get the north I do not know why why my supplier doesn't want to stock those so I'm not surprised to see the subrog inflated prices from the gray market okay I will end with this since a lot of people have asked about it yeah this life from the shop not too much stuff going on yes we just cleared basically everything out I haven't just like a little behind the scenes I have been a little annoyed with like so we had a ton of work the past three two weeks or so then I've been annoyed at the time I felt wasn't that efficient so I've put in a new queuing system and probably a clone it wasn't even like at the rig one grave kabalamuka 25,000 tapos ano di pa o rig so I put in a new queuing system to try to make it easier for everybody the shop staff me who accesses the information remotely a lot of the time and the customers themselves to be better aligned with expectations on when PC will be finished when cleaning will be finished and things like that so hopefully with that in place everything will be a bit smoother yeah it's like alam kasi yung dirty secret of PC suppliers here basically we all just have one supplier like the fractal cases isalang yung supplier noon yung Arctic fans and stuff dalawa gigabyte isalang MSI dalawa ASUS dati isalang yung dalawa na but depends mobo or GPU FSP isalang supplier ko so Noctwa isalang yung supplier ko thermal grisly isalang yung supplier ko so the dirty secret like we are a small market so the distributors pare-pareyo lang yung distributors natin so as DynaQuest as ECPC as PC Hub and all those other guys but the really big shops can afford to get from abroad may gray market contacts na sila sila mismo naging import and so it's really difficult as an independent one store shop to compete with that in terms of volume for discount pricing in terms of what items are available so yeah it's a little frustrating which is why I really want the shop to grow and to be fair we have been growing but I still want faster like I want different I want more locations and more volume para we can have access retail talagay sa numbers game to succeed we really have to sell more to more people but that being said yun nga a lot of we have the same distributor suppliers as the other stores and so if we don't have them malamang the others also don't have them unless nga they're super big and take an interest in bringing the product in either by a gray market or wala naman exclusivity with the distributors for that brand like the ASUS ROG I haven't seen it on any of the price lists but data blitz has them and data blitz is kind of infamous for being big enough for to bring in sidestepping the official distributor here they did that with Glorious and other stuff but yun nga kasi they're so big na yes thank you IDX Adik for Mark yes there is the second hand parts list and the link is usually in the video description it's not there now because I wasn't able to get the proper info for my computer here in the shop but I will put it in so just very last I do need to go I still need to walk I still need to walk a dog and then I still need to I owe prism was kind enough to sponsor us again so Singapore yung 2023 happening at SM aura but I do owe them some collaterals some stuff they want to review before I post them so I do need to get back home and to edit that so just like the very last topic for today's live stream is like so my final thoughts on it which I actually didn't dwell into so much sorry just talk about LTT I thought I'd fidget with this screwdriver I didn't really dwell on it a lot in the in the podcast um I really I just like getting like I just like making content specifically about this because everybody just wants to jump on the bandwagon so that they can get views and hot takes and I'm not not really in it just for the views kumbaga if I feel I have something important to say I will say it like yunga when one of my acquaintances is a tech journalist found out another tech YouTuber in a local copy the data I covered that um in our podcast I covered it indirectly also in the live stream that we did where I talked about copyright law and the things you do need to ask permission for and the things that you don't um so where topics where I think I can provide value that's where I jump in but itong kay Linus I really don't think I can provide much value because at one anything I say wala naman epek po yun either kay gamers nexus or kay LTT um I mean I'm humble enough to acknowledge that they have no interest in what some random semi tech YouTuber from the Philippines thinks of their operations and that's well and good because they have much more experience than me on that front so I don't think I could provide anything for them um on our side like what I mentioned in the podcast it's been a good reminder to us to always get the basic data right to do the work so that we can honestly genuinely when I look at you on the camera and tell you that I really like the AK-620 digital that that is coming from strong support that opinion is coming from a base of strong sorry don't know what's what I'm trying to say that opinion is coming from well founded research like I have an opinion in this product it's not a flimsy opinion it is a well founded opinion because we actually have the basic data that I am relying on to come up with that conclusion so that's the number one thing that really I take away from that more like as a reminder to us and number two is that no matter how big you get because you know I do want hard retrograde to get bigger both the shop and the channel you know retail is a numbers game YouTube is a numbers game but no matter how big you get don't be a jerk the billet labs thing with Linus was really terrible I mean that was they didn't bother to do to properly install it on the GPU that it was intended to be installed on how can you have an opinion on the product if you're not using it the proper way and actually like it goes deeper than the billet labs one like all of the 4060 reviews from gamers nexus from Linus they have 4k benchmarks those benchmarks are useless why would you buy for a 4060 and expect to play it play games on it at 4k resolution I don't know why anybody would include 4k in their deliberations for for a 4060 and that's just I feel a lot of tech YouTubers have this mindset na Sige, para lang data but it's not useful to the end user and that's really how we try to focus the presentation of our videos that it's usable to tech enthusiasts but more importantly to someone who's just getting into the hobby because you're thinking now you're thinking well, do I need to worry about playing about 4k on a 4060 and God know you shouldn't think about playing 4k resolution with a 4060 and the same that's also goes into my criticism a bit of gamers nexus where you know they spent a quarter of a million dollars on a room so that the room is basically a soundproof chamber where they can accurately hear the decibel level of computer components for 98% of people out there that information is useless especially for people in the Philippine setting where everything is so noisy dito sa atin you know you're in a condo 10 floors up but you can still hear the sound of the street outside you're living in a residential area it's a Sunday your neighbor starts to do karaoke you can hear the karaoke from outside you wake up in the morning you can hear the rooster even a very noisy city a lot of the time kad gano ka ingay yung PC components mo that information is useless you won't hear it plus if you're playing games which a lot of our customers are you are focused on the game and there's a lot of explosions going on you won't hear the slight noise of your AIO yes there are some very niche cases like you're into music you're into production pwede yun pwede yun but to spend a quarter of a million dollars for that particular very sliver of a performance you know you're testing just that performance metric I feel that it's um you're fetishizing the data so baka nagfufocus on a very small slice of data you're giving it outsized importance so it's not relevant to yung 98% of the people out there it's your money you can spend your quarter of a million dollars however you want to but I don't think it's a very useful metric to give so that this whole this whole beef between gamer and I mentioned with ITX Addict ITX Addict I can imagine caring ITX Addict I can think about I can imagine ITX Addict caring about temps and fan noise but not I mean it's not a rotor it's not like propeller engine level sounds so we would not spend a quarter of a million dollars on doing a soundproof room for that kind of for that kind of for that kind you know I would take that money and never work again I mean 250,000 dollars have a million so a million dollars is roughly around 55 million pesos so a quarter of that would roughly be around 15 million slightly less 13 million okay so I couldn't retire yet but there's definitely a lot of money that we could spend on the shop so like my thoughts on the entire sorry, okay fine like you want a hot take I do feel that Linus is a little you know medyo pumasok na sa ulo niya but I think you can see that even before na I mean he says that you know I don't think I'm a big tech YouTuber and that doesn't really mean anything to me but you can tell that he gets kind of annoyed sometimes with the brands and the compo and then yun na he can be very flippant about the brands and because you know you can argue na well you shouldn't be di ka dapat sumisip sa brands you should do the work properly but Linus and that's a good thing but the opposite side of that is that they are super flippant na that you're not even doing the basic work properly anymore which I think Linus has a tendency to do that yes the data can be shoddy at times so it's and yun that's a consequence of having to meet to pump out a video the video production schedule at LTT is crazy man I've said so before even before this latest Bruhaha came about because you know that is their business they have to make those that those number of videos because they need to support all of the employees and the labs that they're doing and things like that so yes I agree I think it might have gotten it like even sorry just as someone who took up literature in college and as a lawyer and someone I always ask my students textual analysis like don't give me this general things like oh I think mayabang na siya give me specific example so I will give you a specific example there was a video that they did on super fun channel yung parang gimmicky prank prank thing nila na they were walking outside so they it was all part of the video but the setup was that they had to delay Linus getting back to his house so they knew that he was going to take a walk with his family and then they arranged for some people to not accidentally on purpose run into Linus and asked to take a picture with him so that they would delay it would delay him going back to his house because they had to do and then there was audio from that and in the way he treats the fan he does take the planted fan he does take a video with the fan but he says something like I'm with my family here man and that's true also but parang it's the tone it's always led me to believe na medyo mayabang konte si Linus na my channel has 15 million subs and that's just my main channel we grew it from nothing I mean he does have recently proud but there might be a little hubris overweening pride sinking in already and just from that tone he didn't know what was planted so from his point of view it was from a fan just some random fan that ran into him and that tone na sa little like anoid na I'm with my ano but it goes to the territory I mean you have these celebrities complaining about I want my private time and things like that but you rely on the public to support your business your business is if you're an influencer hauling your views if you're a movie star hauling people into the movie theater so I thought it was a little ingracious ungracious on his part so that's one specific example where I think na maya mayabang and then he's very flippant with the brands and things like that in contrast if you see me on the street we had a chat who mentioned and actually I was in aura and then I was at Singapore in 2023 somebody else in the chat mentioned that they saw me please I mean if you don't want to pick with me that is completely fine to be honest I don't know why you would want to pick with me this face you don't want I wouldn't want a picture with this sorry my phone is ringing let me just get it suspected spam caller spam caller so there's probably lazada lazada but yeah I mean I'm not saying that yes please take a pick with me I'm such a whatever big time whatever but if you do want to pick with me that would be completely okay with me and to be honest guys I am really it really blows my mind it humbles me that you know that you would want some kind of keepsake that oh yeah I ran into this guy and I appreciate his work I like the videos that you do I think the shop has good values to me and yeah you want like a keepsake or something I would be like I'm with my family sure man don't be shy don't be hiya to approach me mas mahiya pa ako to be honest because we do have people like I'm shooting in the shop and customers come in and they ask for my picture and yeah I always say yes I always to be honest I get a kick out of it but it's also very I don't see myself as a public figure it always surprises me a little bit na there would be people that you would be interested enough to take a picture with me but if you do yes want a picture and you see me out in the street I am completely cool with that in fact it makes my day I mean I am super happy that if people have found value enough value in what we do here as a shop and as a channel it's something that they would like to have a picture with me or the staff or anyone that really would make my day and that makes my day when I see comments like that and to be honest it's really wild like I was at La Union before it was for a family vacation so we were at a resort in La Union and somebody mentioned in the Facebook comments so they saw me at that resort although that was work also because I delivered something I won't mention to who but we had a customer way out there in La Union and actually that's the reason why we went to La Union no just kidding I know he's watching now but we took the opportunity my wife wanted to take a short vacation so we stayed in I forget to be honest but it was a pretty good resort maybe we had a good time and then I we had a customer there then we he was a very very good customer up to now so we delivered it to him free of charge so yes Linus sorry it's like this longer this took longer than I thought Balayda kumita so Linus I think it might have gotten to him I still enjoy his content I mean I enjoy his on camera persona whether that is different from his as a boss kind of thing di ko na alam yon they do have some problems I think they need to address the sexual the belittling or female staff and verbal sexual abuse that's not cool I think it really gives tech tech us in general we can have a lot of the perception is it's a very big bro culture yun ka na like ka alam ko ano ay it's not like you're bench pressing I'm bench marking I'm not bench pressing but it can be a pretty bro bro-y type na you don't overclock bro or whatever and that can spill over to misogyny to kind of like anti-female sentiments and I'm yung yung gamers gate it's a whole can of words maybe I should just do a podcast about that but I never understood how people who are into computer hardware because we were so malined before it's such a geeky thing why we feel the need now why there's a subculture of our larger hobby na it's kind of very demeaning to women whether that's your gaming and then you say that women can't game or something because we were outsiders for a long time I've been in the PC space since the the 8.6 series so x86 was my first personal computer yung na geeks talaga nerds like my friends joke all the time na parang why are we so nerdy and in the greater society you could be ostracized you could be bullied for having such a love of technology but now computers are ubiquitous gaming so it becomes ubiquitous I really get upset and angry when you come across these kind of brogamer na like women shouldn't play valorant or whatever that is ridiculous I don't understand where that's coming from as an employer we've never had that problem at least to my knowledge to be we do have female staff Ren Ren puts up with a lot but that's because of our children and it's not because we we say and I would step in if somebody but you know our staff is very respectful of our female staff but yung na there is a subculture in the greater hardware space na very broy and kind of like and yung na yung gamers gate where does that come from like all of your self-esteem is rooted in being good at call of duty and when a when a female gamer kills you well to be fair if anybody kills you like you can you fly off do you fly off the handle but yung you have female reviewers doing tech or game reviewers and you have people flaming them for whatever it's like it's like where does that come from it's really a talk that is super toxic so they should there's no space for that anywhere whether that you're doing a YouTube channel whether you have a PC shop whether you're in a law firm sorry I'm laughing because my wife's law firm there's nothing like that to be clear my wife is a partner in a very respected law firm here in Makati my wife is a bar top notcher so that's the level of top notcher meaning like the top 10 out of the thousands of people who took it we took it the same year I passed the bar she topped the bar anyway she's a partner now in one of the top law firms here in the Philippines but I'm just laughing because I always tease her na grab ang sexual harassment sa firm mo and it is light hearted teasing kasi ang sexual harassment basically is like the older partners asking the female partners or even the female associates na oh ano parang two years married na kayo but wala nasa na yung manak mo parang ganun and in a very strict interpretation of the law that can be sexual harassment already or yung parang the older partners especially they like teasing na oh ano na padami yung kain mo kaya and in a very strict interpretation of the law that is that can be construed as sexual harassment that's why I tease her about it but she's completely okay with it she's not offended neither are any of the females in the office because I think that's also important where culture comes in that's the way of the older partners bonding with the younger partners and with associates because they also give advice and things like that I also think I'm coming around to this to this side of the coin I also don't think it's very healthy if lahat na lang sexual harassment lahat na lang na ofend ako and I think that's a problem naman on the other side of the coin where lahat na lang na ofend ka as someone in authority whether it's because I'm teaching or as a boss here at the shop I'm kind of also cautious about inculcating that kind of thing empowering people so much that they think that everything na lang is an offense because suck it up man I mean even super mild things like that the culture at large doesn't find it offensive if you find it offensive okay I'm going to get super in trouble with this na it's like you need to toughen up I kind of agree with Dave Chappell said it well he has a stand up actor he goes na brittle souls na kahit ano na lang na ofend ka hindi ka rin you also won't live a happy, healthy and productive life kung lahat na lang na ofend ka so you know that's the other side of the coin also but definitely definitely don't misquote me or anything that kind of sexual harassment that Madison reported and it's kind of hold like this bro thing like gamers gate terrible things and stuff like that that is completely beyond the pale there's no space for that anywhere and I would like to think any space for that in any kind of space where I have some control over whether it's a shop or my classroom I shot that down right away yes I know right I don't know how I end up talking about these things in the live streams so that's my thing about Linus my thing on gamers nexus naman is that he can really sound Kia yung medyo know it all because he really does know it all Steve has a lot of knowledge but in terms of presentation to be honest he does have a good point na I didn't need to ask Linus pero grob in naman I mean even Paul Paul's hardware came out with a thing where he included it in his hardware news of the week and he so he mentioned the video and the back and forth between Linus and Steve and Paul ends the entire segment by saying that pero Steve kung gagawin mo to sakin kung gagawa ka ng video about my channel kusapin mo naman ako parang let me comment naman and he says it in a joking way but I think that's true Steve's video had very good points and it's true that journalistically you might not needed to ask Linus for comment on these issues but if your thing was that you really wanted to get insight on them then I think asking for comment would not have been inappropriate and I think it would have shed some insight into some of the things for example maybe like the billet labs issue kasi yung defense Steve I didn't need to ask for permission kus I review a case I review a pre-built from Alienware for example we usually don't ask the company but nyo ginawa ganito why did you put the GPU in vertical mode instead of horizontal mode or whatever and it's true in that context but this kind of context there are a lot of allegations about video production what you did with a particular product I think the ones who actually did it could shed some light on it and then you could show it in that video na these are what billet labs told me this is the side of linos and then you can even make a conclusion based on that so I think Steve's video was correct like I can't fault his data and things like that but maybe unnecessarily harsh even grave yung language niya I mean it's really cool lang na lang sabihin niya na incompetent tung LMG na to I mean he doesn't use the word incompetent but yun yun na lang cool lang niyang sabihin so even me like I have no connection na toh to LTT but when I was watching the gamers next to video because I did watch it in this entirety like grave to si Steve like really yaw parang ganyan Luigi says he didn't reach out for comment kay linos bakay kasi matip off siya to only start helping that's a good point like he might have started to try to cover it up in a way but that's true I mean that's a good point although for me it's like na do na yung thing na ano e like the time line could already be established via e-mails kasi you're in touch naman with billet labs so at the point that you talk to billet labs wala pang at all of help from linos and then if you reach out to ask for comment and then suddenly there's an e-mail then you could kinda naturally construe it as like oh we're trying to fix up our mess before the video comes out parang ganon the way it happened nga was that they only started to take billet labs seriously when the video came out so I guess that's a good point naman fairness I know right like if I could afford to just knock down this well this is not so expensive but knock down this chaotic that's the mischief maker in all of us but we can't and that's not mine that's already paid for so we wouldn't do that to our customers so yeah so that's my two cents on the entire thing like to be honest though super entertaining I'm a terrible person for saying so and you know I should be like responsible and like oh I don't drink that tea and I don't watch that controversy but I mean I mean there is just it's a spectacle I mean and spectacles are entertaining that's why people watch gladiators back in the day why when there's some kind of controversy it gets lots of views even these very subsidiary creators talking about them it is juicy news and I won't lie like dito magpapa you know like two face here now holier than down I don't listen to I'm not interested in tech youtuber conflict heck no man it was super entertaining especially because you know they're titans in the space right so yeah needed correction from to Linus maybe could have been said better Linus himself I think maybe like Linus is very good Linus is an optimization machine just yun nga yung thing like oh I want to retire and he might have said so at the time but you know he's really so sad like a meme and they started doing very recently you notice they started doing livestreams 24 seven it's just a loop old content of theirs playing because they knew that mas malaki yung exposure mas sa YouTube if you have that live now kind of thing so like the little things like that I think having your face on the thumbnail don't quote me but I'm pretty sure like he was one of the earlier ones to kind of figure out that drives clickability click through rate so he's very good at figuring out how to get attention but yeah but there's a lot of stuff behind the scenes that maybe he needs to look at now and that includes maybe himself like yun nga being a bit more appreciative of the position that his hard work to be fair he's worked really hard for that has put him in so takeaways from this hardware sugar is completely free right now if you have some needs to be done we do have one bill but we're still waiting for parts just some cleaning and then I think that's pretty much it so we're completely free pretty much and I hope I will not get canceled for some of the stupid things I said I don't think I said stupid things they're kind of like on point you can try rice you could try the pixel recovery videos like they try to but yes like if you just bought it okay you tried it but wala if you just bought it yes that is a bad sign usually they shouldn't appear right away my OLED has no dead pixels yet I am happy to report to Sky sir try to bring it back one of the things we're very proud of in the shop followed us for any length of time that we're very proud most most monitors kasi may minimum niyan at least five or three depends on the manufacturer before they will take it back but we have very good relationships with our suppliers we have never had a monitor na we sent back na reneject nila even if it doesn't meet minimum threshold three pixels five pixels I forget wala pa rin and also wala ng burn in laya magnay I can't speak for other shops but if we have a very good batting average 100% for monitors na within warranty pa rin and stuff even if they don't fall within the threshold I can't guarantee it kasi yun nga the terms for that particular purchase are set by the brand yun na three or five but yun nga we don't make it a super big deal kasi we don't want to put the suppliers in a hot seat also but we have 100% batting rate so far na when we send back a monitor it gets either the panel gets replaced or the whole thing gets replaced or whatever but it comes back without any dead pixels yep yeah usually kasi mayro na usually there's a minimum like three or five pixel thing although the ASUS ones walang ganun except for the more and three level ones like our ASUS YV something yun 9,000 pesos lang yun may minimum pixel count yun gigabyte has I know MSI I can't remember but I think MSI also has ASUS lang yung wala for the higher end models if I remember correctly alright so thanks so much for joining me for another live from the shop work again tomorrow but just for more days and then another three day weekend so thanks so much for watching we have a bunch of videos coming out soon I hope you like them Pixel 7 review mobile content like how do you edit mobile stuff how do you edit on the go like videos like what hardware is good yun the video where I talk like a lot I just answer questions basically and then finally price watch dropping this week so thanks so much for watching I really do appreciate our audience you guys are the best we would not be I would not have the privilege of coming in on a holiday to this a shop of this size to talk to an audience of this size if not for your support so I really do genuinely appreciate it and I try to remind myself not to take it for granted have a good night guys


If you want to get ICTs into rural areas, into rural populations, you can do a lot worse than using a telecentre, which is what they're doing in Sudan, isn't it? I've got Ahmed Mahmoud Mohammed Issa here, your chair of the GEDRAF Digital City in Sudan. Now, you're using telecentres to reach rural areas. Can you tell us how it works? Yeah, actually, telecentre is a public place equipped with ICT equipment and to help people gather information and to facilitate their lives. And we have different type of telecentres, depending on the service that provided. For example, we have the standard telecentres, which provide training, capacity building and skill development for our community. And in addition to that, there is a knowledge telecentres. These are telecentres where we share experience, best practices with other international telecentre practitioners. And like e-agricuture project, like e-education, e-health and e-government. And how do people use them in Sudan? What are they using them for? Actually, in Sudan, we are mainly concentrating on the knowledge telecentres now because these are applications of what we are thinking is better for our community because we look for, for example, an e-agricuture project implemented in India and we transfer it like the agro-mobile services. That can help even illiterate farmers to be connected to the internet. And so how does it work? Is there a teacher in the capital city and you have children effectively in a remote classroom watching over a computer screen? Yeah, this is actually a public-private partnership with many partners. It is established in a partnership between Gadariff Digital City and the Ministry of Education in Gadariff. And this project is serving the kids in the rural areas, especially the nomads. And this project we have trained with our partners, many instructors or managers to take care of these kids. Okay, we need to wrap up now. But what do you see for the immediate future? Are you optimistic about the immediate future for telecentres in Sudan? Yeah, the future of the telecentre beyond 2015 is to have the portable telecentres because portable telecentres are very effective. They can be attractive, they can be a local house, we call it Gutia or Reakuba. They are very cheap to implement. And with $10,000 you can establish a telecentre that provides service to 1,000 people. And you can use this, does it work by satellite? You can use this even if there isn't an infrastructure? There is a problem in the infrastructure. For example, in that area we have a problem of electricity. There is no power. We are using solar energy. And this solar energy is used also for providing the people with charging their mobiles. This charging of the mobiles, it increases the number of mobiles, it increases the number of internet penetration in Sudan. Okay, we're going to have to leave it there. Thank you very much. Okay.


Hi guys it's Monica. I want to share with you sort of an update on all those anti-aging gadgets that I have talked about and other content creators have talked about. What's worked for me as far as I can tell? What hasn't? What will I rebuy if I want? What won't I rebuy? So the gadgets I'm going to talk about in most cases were purchased by me. There was two that were gifted to me in exchange for trying it out in a review. So I'm going to give you my honest opinion on what I think about these gadgets. So for the benefit of those of you that might be watching this in the future, as of this filming in July of 2019, I am 65 years old, I have often said that I was very late to the skincare world. And I was, I was a sun worshiper. I baked with baby oil with Banda Soleil. I just, I baked all the time. So I really did not take good care of my skin until later in life. I have been using Retin-A since 2016. And I do have videos on my skincare routine. I am going to be updating my skincare routine because I am doing something very different. But I will link those playlists for any of you that are finding this and I would like to watch it. The Skin Clinical. This is the Reverse Anti-Aging Light Therapy. When I got this, I thought this would be a fabulous, a fabulous device. I really did. I had high hopes for this device. I used it. The problem was that you had to use it in sections of your face for a certain period of time. Then it would beep and you would move off to the next section. And you would let that sit there and do the thing. You have to move it. And then it would beep. And I think it was like three minutes each section. I am not positive anymore. But I found this to be too time consuming for me to use.  By the time I did my whole face, it would take a long time. So this was, and I have mentioned this in the past, I do believe in light therapy. I just haven't found a light therapy device that I am willing to pay for and that would not require me to spend an hour doing using it. And this just took up too much time. An hour is an exaggeration. So this is not anything I would repurchase. So, you know, I don't even remember what I paid for it. But I bought it. The next thing that I'm going to talk about was my second most expensive gadget. This is the TrophySkin MicroDerm MD. This is the MicroDerm Abrasion System. And I think I bought this on QVC. It was on sale. There was a recent sale that was almost better than this one. But it was on sale and I'm trying not to blind you with the mirror hair. And when I bought it, it was pretty reasonable compared to the full price. I did ask a couple of other people how they like this system. You know, how were they using it? And I was very concerned using this with Retin-A. Because I am, as I said, a Retin-A user. I've been using Retin-A since 2016. I'm not going to stop. You have a couple of different attachments where you can actually clean out your pores. Where you can do a deep abrasion, a deep, deep exfoliation cleaning. Now, because I'm a Retin-A user, I don't use this often. I probably am running right now about once a month. Every three to five weeks or so, I give myself a very deep cleansing. I make sure I'm not doing this the day after I applied Retin-A. So, this would be used on one of those days when I haven't done Retin-A in two or three days. So, I'm liking this a lot. I like how it cleans. I like how when I take the little filter thingies off here, it's gunky. I feel it definitely, for me, works. Is it pricey? Yeah. But if I went to a spa and had a deep exfoliation, any kind of a facial on any kind of a regular basis, I probably would have spent the same amount of money. However, this I can do whenever I want. But because I'm a Retin-A user, I have not been, I've just not used it every week. You know, I would like to be able to maybe get to every other week and see how I like that. So, I bought that right now. And I don't know by the time you watch this, if it'll be true or not, but there was a great deal on QVC for this. I will definitely link it. The other thing that I have from Trophy Skin as well is the La Belle. This is what they call their Spatula. I don't have the box. I was looking for the box because I'm usually really good at keeping boxes and I just don't have the box anywhere. I'm like, oh, what do you do with it? But this I like. I, out of all of my devices, other than the, you know, the cleaning tools, this I really like for it pushes the water, it kind of opens up the pores. I can see a difference when I use this. And because it's water, it's not really scraping or doing anything of that nature. I use this more often. This probably gets used three times a week, two to three times a week on any kind of a regular basis. If this were to die tomorrow, I would repurchase it. But I would repurchase a, there's, there's a couple of different brands. This probably is for the microdrome abrasion as well. But there's a couple of different brands that are cheaper than this. So I would probably buy an off brand because the ones that I have seen almost look identical. So why pay the extra money? Even if you can get it on those extended payments on QVC, when you can get an off brand that looks like it probably be the same thing. So I like this. I use this all the time. This is the spatula, the little label. And I got mine again on those three payments. Oops, I got a little bit of makeup on it. The three, the three payments on QVC, I think it's the three easy payments or five or whatever. But so this is definitely a repurchase. However, I would consider a off brand. The other device that I have, and this was sent to me, this is Jen Amber's Dolphin. Jen had sent this to me. I think it was in March for a review. And at the time I was like, how in the world is this going to work? And she, in a lot of her promotional, she said it gives you an instant lift. And I could see in some of her videos, I did think there was a bit of a difference, but she's a heck of a lot younger than I am. So maybe that's what I saw. But the way this works as you hold it in your hands like this, I like this part of it. Now there's a hot and there's a cold. Is the hot really hot because it's against your skin or is it really doing heat? I don't know. But I like the cold in the morning. When I do my eye serums, you know, for my eye bags, I will turn this on. It beeps. When it's blue, this is the cold side. And this is what I would do when I put my serums and my eye cream in. I would use this under my eyes. When I want to sink in my products, especially here in my deep creases, I do that. Now I've used the pointy side. It can feel a little bit. I can feel a vibration and I like that. So I use that just like I'm showing you now, but I would have product on my face. It's very, very intuitive, this device. Red is hot. Blue is cold. I like when I use it to apply and get my serums in deeper. That's what I like about this. I like that it's small, that it's easy to hold, that I can actually use it. Would one of those little stones do the same thing? Possibly. Would a jade roller do the same thing for your eye bags? Possibly. I don't know that it would get into the tiny little creases that I have here to really sink in the vitamin C and sink in the Retin-A or whatever. But I don't know. There are also off brands, just like there is on the Labelle Spatula and probably any other device I'm showing you. There are off brands that are a lot cheaper. So if this were to break on me, I've not seen a lifting. I've not seen a lifting. I haven't and I have used this fairly consistently. But I do like how it applies and lets my product sink in. I think if I were to pay the money for this, I would first buy one of the off brands to see how it worked compared to this. This feels really good. This is solid. I have never used one of the off brands, so I cannot compare it. But you never know when you buy an off brand is the quality going to be the same, quality control, all of that stuff. But sometimes the price difference makes it worth the risk. And these I've seen in various prices all over the place. So I like the dolphin a lot. I think it has some merit. I like what it does for my bags in the morning on the cold side. I do like the vibration that I feel. But this is pricey. So would I tell you to go buy this? If you wanted to make sure you had Jen Ambers, I don't know what the difference is between hers and any of the others, then yeah. But if you wanted to try something like this, you could probably find a much cheaper alternative and see how you like it. My three cents. The other devices that I use and continue to use is my Foreo Mini. I have a dupe that I bought. I actually have two of the dupes. I just happen to have the box for the dupe. Hallecare is the dupe. And I have my Foreo Mini, which I think has got to be about maybe two, three years old now. And then my dupe. I love these a lot. I love the silicone. I love how gentle it is. You don't, I don't get scratched up. It doesn't hurt my skin. It cleans really good. I have one in the motorhome, my motorhome. And I have one in the house. And then I have the box, the spare. I thought I was going to give it as a gift and I didn't part with it. So I really like these a lot. And I will tell you the truth.  It's closed off a little bit. The batteries last just as long. It functions the exact same way for a fraction of the price. I like the dupe better than the original. So if you're thinking about buying one of these, check out some of the dupes that are on. I think we got this on eBay. And I think Jay bought me two because at the time it was like $12 or $14 a piece. So he got me two. The original and this both of them are going strong. There's no slowdown at all. And the last gadget that I'm going to talk about is the Radiance Spinner. This was actually sent to me for review. I think with 70% off, I think it's like $24. Is it a Clarisonic? I don't know. I don't care. I use this.  This is like I would use this on the body, obviously.  And they've got a little buffer here. I was just using it on my heels. You probably know what it's for, but that's what I was using it for. So I really like this. I really like this. I can't compare it to the Clarisonic because I don't have one. But for the money, $24, if this were to prep out on me, I'd buy it again for the money. I don't think you can go wrong for the money. I really like all the attachments. I like how it works. It leaves my face really clean. Again, I don't press it hard.  So be very, very gentle. Make sure you clean those brush heads. And it's the same thing with your Fourier. You want to make sure you've got them nice and clean. You don't want to be putting anything on your face that isn't clean, in my opinion. The last thing I'm going to talk about is my derma rollers. I happen to really, really like medical grade derma rollers. Now, you can use whatever derma roller you want. Timeless has one. There is a Skindeva. There's many, many other derma rollers out there. I happen to like this one that Jenny Ember has. It's 192 real needles. And I don't derma roll as much as I probably should. I've been derma rolling probably every two weeks. I mean, you need to, you know, when you're using a lot of like gadgets, you need to kind of make sure you're not over-gadgetizing, over-gadgeting, over-gadgeting, whatever.  So everything has to be in cycles, in my opinion. So I use this like once every two weeks or so. I derma roll my scalp on it. I have another one for my scalp and I do that once every two weeks, sometimes every three weeks. I am not as consistent in derma rolling as I used to be. However, I still derma roll. My gadgets update. This was highly requested, but I just wanted to explain some of the gadgets that I've been using and if I'm still using them. And more importantly, would I buy them or would I buy a dupe? So I hope this answers the questions. And if you have any other suggestions or questions or anything of that nature, leave it below for me in the comments. And thanks so much for watching, guys. I truly appreciate all your support all the time. And I will see you in my next video.
