The Commonwealth Games are back and how well will Team Nigeria fair? We assess the chances of Nigeria's Falkenets also ahead of the forthcoming FIFA under 20 women's championship looking at the squad and the team list. And today's New Super Headlines have some quite interesting headlines. We'll analyze them ahead on the program. Good morning to you. We're back with a breakfast right here at the Plus TV Africa. It's a portfolio of interesting conversations this morning taking the business angle and the sports angle with interesting analysis and guests. We implore you to stay where you are. Grab a cup of hot chocolate or coffee or whatever it is. Mine has the Plus TV logo right here. And you can enjoy the program in the comfort of your home. My name is Kofi Bartels. We usually start the program by looking at what's trending in the social space and we call it a top trending segment. And we're beginning with something that has really, really taken our attention over the past few years and has generated a lot of discussion and heated debate amongst Nigerians both for and against. And that is the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra Group, I.P.O.B. Mazzi Namlikano. All right. The new story and the current debate is centering around the demand by the Indigenous People of Biafra Group, I.P.O.B., which he leads for Namlikano to be released immediately from detention. They're demanding his immediate release from the custody of the Department of State Services in Abuja where he has been for some time now. Of course, he was extradited back to Nigeria. Some will say he was extraordinarily rendered back to Nigeria or by force to the country. But he's been in the custody of the Indigenous People of Biafra Group, in the DSS custody right now for some time now.  And this has, of course, given them some concern for the health of their leader. They want him back as far as these threats go. They feel these threats are real. Now, let's look at some more of what the I.P.O.B. is saying. They released a statement yesterday through the now very popular Ima Pavel. Some should call him Ima popular because he's in the news a lot. He is the publicity secretary or the head of I.P.O.B.'s media publicity department. He reminded the federal government in that release and the security agencies in Nigeria that the United Nations had mandated the unconditional release of Karnu. He also added that the appropriate compensation should be paid to him without delay because he committed no crime against Nigeria and her sovereignty. A powerful went on to say on behalf of the group that the closure of public schools in the FCT showed the federal government had less control of the security situation and they're saying the federal government in their view can no longer guarantee the safety of Karnu in detention. I'm sure they're looking at what will play out if these terrorists have their way and are able to take over Abuja, for instance, what will they do to Karnu who has been very vocal and very critical of the terrorists and indeed the northern part of the country. Now, this is what they said in their letter. The attention of the global movement and family of I.P.O.B. has been drawn to the sudden closure of all the government public schools operating in Abuja because of the threats from terrorists groomed by Fulani people to take over Abuja and the international. These are his words, so we're just bringing them to you, Weberton. He went on by saying, quote, I.P.O.B. therefore demands the immediate release of the leader, Mazi Namdi Karnu from the DSS Dungeons, how it puts it in Abuja by the federal government and her compromised DSS, he went on to say. He went on to say also, quote, we are reminding Nigeria and her security agencies that the world through the United Nations Rights Group has mandated for the unconditional release of Mazi Namdi Karnu and their proper compensation paid to him without delay because he has committed no crime against Nigeria and her sovereignty. So they're saying Abuja is no longer safe now for their leader. You know, schools are closing, we need him back.  He also had some words for the trial judge, the judge in his treason case talking about my lord, the Honourable Justice Binta Nyako, also calling on her and the jurist to know that Karnu's life is in danger while being detained in the SS custody. Of course, they can look at the Kujie prison attack, the jailbreak where even someone who has been in jail over drug peddling allegations from a super cop, Abakari, he could have been affected either positively or negatively by that jailbreak but thank God he wasn't harmed and he also refused to escape. Some of the other inmates were able to make their way out of the Kujie prison now. The question is, is the DSS detention facility as poorly guarded and unprepared, will they be unprepared as unprepared as the Kujie prison officials? We don't know. What we know is that DSS, Nobi Nigerian Prison Service, the different bodies. But the threats are real. Different messages flying on social media last night, as a matter of fact, flying around social media last night saying that there was an imminent attack in Abuja also in Lagos but these reports unconfirmed some of the messages flying around social media. We know which ones have been confirmed. For instance, an attack on soldiers near the Zuma Rock on the road between Niger State and Abuja. So these are fears that are real. Now, Ima Parfal also went on to add, quote, Bintanyako and her jurist should know that Kano's life is in danger while being detained at the DSS custody in Abuja. Again, she should know that these terrorists attacked the Niger Defense Academy at Kaduna, the watering in college, Jaji in Kaduna, the Kujie prisons in Abuja and other security facilities in Abuja. Therefore, the DSS facility is not immune to attack by these, what they call, these are his words now, the state, you know, sponsored terrorists, he says. So some are saying, you know, what this could be a just a way for the IPOB to see if they can sneak in one using the situation on ground to the advantage. Some have argued that if there's any danger, the best thing for the group to do, because the case is still ongoing, in the courts, the federal high court in Abuja is to maybe transfer the case to maybe Lagos, all right, and move him to Lagos, you know, somewhere in the southwest where he might feel safer, that could be an alternative. So it remains to be seen if the trial judge, my Lord General Abuja says, Bintanyako will accede to their request or demands to not just transfer him to her, but rather to release Kano and ask him to go home and then pay him compensation because the field of Abuja is not safe. I doubt that that will happen. It's never happened in a court case. What you see is that they transfer cases, you know, to other locations. It's happened especially in political cases, post-election cases. You have the cases moved. Maybe they say the judge feels unsafe or the state is not safe. Maybe that's the state the election held in. They can move that case to Abuja. So let's see what happens. Justice Bintanyako acced to the demands of IPOBA and say, oh, I've dismissed this case. Kano, you don't feel safe in Abuja. You are free to go home. We're not just allow you to go home. We're going to pay you money because a UN group says so. We don't know. We'll see how that pans out. All right. Let's move on to another one. This is quite interesting because not too long ago a new law was signed. All right. The new agency was formed as far as the health insurance programs in the country was concerned and, you know, transiting from the old regime to a new regime. We're told that the federal government has concluded plans to kickstart the implementation of a long-awaited compulsory health program. All right. This is a compulsory health program in order to make quality health and affordable healthcare services accessible to 92 million vulnerable Nigerians. The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustafa, made this disclosure known when the delegation from the World Health Organization led its country representative, Dr. Walter Moulombo-Cazadi alongside the executive secretary of the organization to pay him a curtsy visit in his office. That's the executive secretary, rather, of the Nigerian Health Insurance Authority. This is a new organization, all right, that has taken over from the SWA regime of the Nigerian Health Insurance Scheme, the NHIS, and Nigerians are hoping that with this new one that President Buhari has signed into law, things will change. You know, some have said, can anything good come out of Nazareff with this one? But let's see how it goes. The signs are there. The World Health Organization is very interested in seeing this work and they've gone to, you know, have discussions with the federal government, particularly the Secretary to the Government of the Federation. Let's see how it goes. Let's see how it goes. Now, the SGF said that a signing into law of the National Health Insurance Authority bill by President Buhari signaled a new lease of life to the health sector, which would make universal health coverage accessible to all the nukes and crannies of the country. They want to take healthcare to every part of Nigeria. And the National Health Insurance Scheme didn't really achieve what it was meant to achieve. So this is one that one is hoping will do the magic. It's very important. You look at countries all over the world. In the U.S. they have what you call Medicare. You know, in the U.K. they have what you call the NHS, which we've seen prominently in the fight against COVID-19. It's been everywhere. Even the footballers have also been, you know, putting the stamp of the NHS on their football jessie. So this is when we hope that, you know, Nigeria will have something that a world can also see is working for everyone. I mean, the cost of private healthcare is not really, really easy to afford for those who are in a vulnerable segment of society and government needs to do something to help them. All right. So we'll see how that pans out. Is it just about words to the World Health Organization or are they going to back their words with action and get affordable healthcare, much needed affordable healthcare to what they say a 92 million vulnerable Nigerian. Some people feel that the 92 million is just an under assessment of the number of people in this country that need, critically need help in accessing affordable and quality healthcare. Let's move on. People are still talking about the plan. So the thoughts going on and talks going on amongst or in the corridors of power in the federal government of Nigeria to ban commercial motorcycles in the country. Operations of commercial motorcycles in the country as a way of nipping terrorism in the but, you know, after previous federal executive council, national security council meeting, rather, the Attorney General of the Federation, Miss of Justice, made a presentation to the press. He spoke to the press and said that these are some of the things they discussed that national security council meeting number one, banning the operation of commercial motorcycles in Nigeria, a public called Okada. And number two, banning mining activities for now because they say that the mining activities increase terrorism because these guys are interested in getting the minerals.  Number two, you know, banning the commercial motorcycles they feel that these motorcycles aid in the logistic movement and operations of these terrorists. And of course you can see in the previous reports, even in the attack on the Kuji prison, it was said that 300 terrorists came there on motorcycles. I don't know how they were able to count them, but I mean, I'm sure somebody just did a general assessment. So a Nigerian civil war veteran is also an elder statesman, Alhaji Ahmed Adoke, has joined, you know, the debate. He has cautioned the federal government over those plans to, you know, slam a ban on the use of commercial motorcycles as a means of transportation in the country. Ahmed Adoke is also a human rights activist. Yesterday in Abuja, he explained that the reason that used by the federal government to justify the planned ban on commercial motorcycles or motorcycle operations are across Nigeria. This is a nationwide ban. He says it's not only ridiculous, but it says it's an admission of failure that the government has no solution to the insecurity challenges in the country. So he put out a statement. He issued it to journalists. And in that statement, he warned the federal government not to actualize the planned ban on occurred riders on the ground that the multiple negative, what he calls negative effects would be too much for the nation to bear. What are these negative effects according to Ahmed Adoke? Now, he says that jobs will be affected. You know, the cost of transportation could also go up. He's talked about the teaming university graduates who have been forced to the labor market because of, and there are no jobs there, so they have to, you know, some of them have to ride commercial motorcycles or maybe invest in that business just to survive. He says this will impact negatively on them. You know, the teaming youth of Nigeria who have taken to a cutter riding to keep body and soul together, this ban will have a negative effect on them. You know, he said that Okara is the most visible means of transportation, you know, for market men and women, as well as civil servants, to just help them keep up with the social or rather the economic realities in Nigeria today. He talked about economic hardships, you know. So he says using insurgency, using boundary tree and terrorism as grounds or reasons to impose a ban on the use of motorcycles as a means of transportation, he says that he claims that this will not be acceptable to Nigerians, is what he says. Now, the last part of his statement reads, or his statement reads in part, quote, last Friday, 22nd July, Nigerian Daily is in other media outfits, he says, where I watched with the news that the federal government of Nigeria was considering the ban or banning the use and distribution of motorcycles as well as mining activities in the country. He went on to say in that statement, quote, the news followed a press statement issued by the Attorney General of the Ministry of Justice, let's go to the important part of his statement, quote, he says, it is very clear that the use of the motorcycles by terrorists bounded Soboko around to the scene of operation falls into the semi-final stage of the operations. He says, meaning that they can be checked at the early stage before the execution if the intelligence unit of the nation's security outfit is effectively utilized. He says, quote, several questions that linger in the minds of Nigerians are, will there be no other means of transportation available to the terrorists? That's if this man is carried out. He says, it is not possible that terrorists can even strike at their target without the use, or is it not possible that terrorists can even strike at their target without the use of any modern means of transportation? He says, again, weighing the economic implications of the federal government's decision on the ban of motorcycles, there is no denying the fact that across the nation today the use of motorcycles for commercial purposes has become a major source of employment and livelihood for needy Nigerians. So he says government or its agents sometimes go into negotiation with the terrorists, meaning that the government cannot deny knowledge of where the terrorists are hiding, he says. He says, for instance, the terrorists behind the Kanduna train attack released some captives on two different locations after the payment of heavy ransom. Is it not, how does the Nigerian security apparatus could not locate where the rest of the captives are kept in the bush for their release? He's asking. He says, is it not in this country that terrorists or bandits are photographed with their captives release video threats to the helpless and yet the federal government has failed to act to rescue her citizens? These are very, very seriously begging questions being asked by Ahmed Adoke. He's saying it is incomprehensible to listen to President Buhari that he is eager to leave office, meaning that he is no longer keen or has become helpless in the affairs of Nigerians. Adoke says, then let the president Buhari resign and hand over to his vice. Undoubtedly Nigerians are tired of the rampant cases of killings by terrorists, bandits and Boko Haram. Ahmed is not far from the sentiments and feelings of let me say most of those who have analyzed this situation have commented on this idea the federal government has put out considering this ban listening to most views that have flowed after this announcement by the Attorney General and Minister of Justice I think majority of those who have commented on this feel that the federal government is not getting it right on this one. It may to be seen if the advice and the views of the lights of Adoke will bring something to bear, will impress all the federal government and President Buhari himself to have a rethink and not consider that nationwide Okada ban. Let's take a pause at this juncture. We have an interesting analysis of the headlines in today's National Daily up next when we return from this break. Please stay with us.


Hi everyone this is Jason here from Nathaniel School of Music. In this lesson I'm going to introduce you to something you can do in your left hand to accompany pretty much any melody which you are faced with whether the melody is like classical or folk or a nursery rhyme or a rock song or a pop song or a fusion song at the list goes on. So it's really simple but at the same time there are a few you know intricacies about it and when you start bringing in the right hand that's where the challenges occur. So I'm not going to give you a specific thing to play or a specific thing to learn or a scale or a melody as such until the very end of the video. So stay tuned till the very end there'll be a tutorial there'll be a melody at the end which we'll which we are going to also notate and keep on our patreon and you'll have my notes for the whole lesson of course. So in order to do this lesson it'll be nice if you can also bring out your sustain pedal. The sustain pedal will be very helpful while playing along because you need that intricacy. You'll also maybe need to play along with me in the video. I'll be just going through a lot of options and yeah you can do a lot of songs using this technique. I'll try and just do that but remember at the end of the lesson we are going to learn something specific so stay tuned and before we get cracking it'll be great if you could hit that subscribe button to stay tuned to all the lessons we regularly put out on our channel hit that bell for notifications give our video a like a share leave us a comment with what you thought and what you'd like to learn next and if you'd like something more structured there are quite a few lessons which are on youtube as well as listed neatly in a chronological order on our website and you'll have access to books which I've written to supplement our piano foundation piano intermediate music theory year training or you could just pick up everything for life as we call it we have a bundle which is there on our site so nathanielschool.com is where you'd like to be so let's get down to what the left hand is doing because this lesson is primarily about an engine which you're trying to develop in the left hand so if you take let's say G it's really simple the first thing I want you to try and work out is go up a perfect fifth from this G what's the perfect fifth well the circle of fifths can be very helpful for that purpose that'll be D G A B C D in the G major scale right so you could do G D and the exercise or the pattern in the left hand would be okay so what I like about this way of playing first off if you move your head one two three four so you see the thumb of the left hand is not really coinciding with your head movement right it's playing at the off beats at the off quaver beats and and and four and one and and and okay another intricacy is the pinky finger of the left hand which is not lifting I could have so easily lifted the guy but no the pinky finger is holding and the third thing which you can't see physically but you can see it in the diagram is the pedal so you can use the sustain pedal which is that one and basically sustain whatever you're playing so right so step one get the pattern one and two and three and four and one and two let's do that without bothering about the pedal let's do that together one and two and three and four and okay two three four one and two and three and four and one okay now slowly but surely try to squeeze in your pinky finger try to hold that in one and two and three you see the pinky is actually playing on a semi brief so there's a little bit of finger independence if you want to call it that going on during this exercise one and two and three and four the pinky has to ring you hear that ringing okay now to make it a bit more legato bring in your pedal you get the awesome harmonics of the sustain pedal and you just get a sustain so the notes come together in a nice way and this is a fifth chord so it's gonna always sound good there's no collision of frequencies in the left hand so this is the pattern now along with this a nice strategy to start off with the right hand before you start playing your favorite melodies is go through all the basic non-division rhythm rhythm notation so you start with semi briefs which is one note for this whole bar and let's say I'm in the key of G major I just play G maybe just whack the G two two three so that's a semi brief in the right you can play around with it pretty much every note sounds good because you're not playing a major chord in the left hand or the minor chord it works with everything start with semi briefs and see if you can press and hold your pedal that'll make a lot of impact I'm also using octaves which is quite nice in the right hand now you could do minims which is one two three four one two three four do like a dotted minim and then a crotchet E note in the G major scale for now you could also be in the G minor scale that's the power of the fifth chord works with anything okay then you can do a crotchet and then a dotted minimum now if you want to get more aggressive or more intense in the left hand you can do you could do a minimum in the with the pinky you don't have to semi brief hold and wait you could do minims or you could do dotted minims if it's a three by four song two three one two three one two three especially when you're playing a three by four like that okay so you could do dotted minims with the pinky semi brief start with that that'll be easy then you can do minims dotted minims and you know you could that'll be boring if you just do crotchets because then it's just like you're alternating between the two fingers so semi briefs with the pinky only two three then minims one two three four one two three dotted minims one two three for a mostly a three four song two remember this is still playing those offbeat quavers and and all the ends basically coming back to the right hand so we've done semi brief or whole note for four counts two minims then we've done dotted minimum in a crotchet then we'll do crotchet and a dotted minimum that's done then what else is remaining we can do the normal pulse like crotchets so quite easy if you ask me three four then you could mix it up mix up a minimum with two crotchets and look at all the permutations do one minim meets two crotchets i'd leave the notes to you and the scale up to you we are just committing to the key of g then we could do like two crotchets followed by a minim okay what else is remaining put the minimum in the middle crotchet minimum crotchet so if you want to train your ear you can actually try to play as you sing like play something and sing it at the same time but follow the rhythmic framework of what you're trying to achieve let's say i go back to minimum meets two crotchets and try to sing it as you go along on the keys so it becomes very musical because it's coming from you from your body to prove it you can also like sing it don't play the piano for one bar play that now sing something what's what i find fun is to sing two bars so you could probably put two of those bars together like maybe a dotted minimum dotted minimum and a crotchet following with two minims let's see how that sounds so by the way i'm singing it and playing this left hand thing it's quite tricky should try it out and play what you just sung now what can we do okay so that's the technique now why did i tell you to do all of these like rather mathematically formed rhythms there are eight by the way if you choose to not divide the beat and then combine semi-brieves minims crotchets and dotted minims over a bar of four by four you're going to get eight permutations right and we've covered all the eight sofa in this video now moving forward what we can start doing is this can equip us hopefully it has already equipped us with the skill of playing a melody in the right hand with this very very cool and you know workable rhythm in the left hand which is built strangely enough with just two notes and it sounds really workable because it's adding to the rhythm party you know it's playing the offbeat so i figured this will work for a lot of ideas so slowly but surely you can build this to popular tunes like maybe this one now it gets slightly tricky to maintain the left hand at the offbeat and to hold that pinky and the pedal sounds really good for folk songs you know try to create something change the notes so you can actually build up all your fifth chords in the G scale so you watch the B's the white note going to black note that'll be B's fifth C D E F sharp F sharp you have to be careful F sharp doesn't form a perfect fifth with any note because it's in the G scale the seventh degree the fifth will be a tritone so f to the C f sharp to the C so these are all your fifths okay A B C D E F sharp tritone yeah you could just work this out now you can explore a lot more options i like about this technique is even in the left hand you can go quite deep so there's a rhythm component there's a bass component there's a lot of body because i'm holding that finger and it doesn't sound muddy at all because i'm not playing major and minor chords which tend to sound muddy it's just a fifth sound so if you play let's say like an A if you play like an A with its fifth E you assume like it's an A minor chord right which any way your melody will tend to carry so let's say you you develop a pattern i like that pattern B G with its fifth more notes basically a lot of songs which i've also used this technique like let's say you take this one this is a bit of that the forest gum theme isn't it slightly tricky to actually get that going maybe we should do another video on this later anyway so you see it's quite scalable you can play a lot of a lot of material why don't we try taking a couple of songs which may not really have this technique but could still work let's also look at it in a three by four context because i think that is also very interesting so if you take two three one two three it works a lot for the three stuff right so i just wanted to make this technique a bit more bulletproof so you can play a bigger volume of music so this works great if a chord is major or minor right but then what if the chord is not major or minor what if it's like a diminished chord well a diminished chord i already told you you play the root with the tritone instead of the perfect fifth another thing i like to do is what if you wanted to play a G major or let's say you want to play a D major without the D in the bass but maybe with another note in the bass it's a very common thing to do like an F sharp in the bass see this is a D major chord what is its third F sharp so if i create this as a slash chord i want F sharp down below so how do i make it a two note technique so this is D major slash F sharp in the left hand so let's just toggle between F sharp or D over F sharp played like this so how do you do that you take a D major chord knock off the fifth take the third and whack it in the bottom and hold the third and then back to our G major which is the one check that out so you have your one and the five and you can then do the four chord which is C major but again invert it by playing C E only but then move the E here ignore the G because you just are allowed two notes in this technique so that's G with a D bass there that's its fifth so in conclusion you can play the left hand pattern either with a fifth chord or with a slash chord so this would be a D major chord with an F sharp bass then you can play D major with an A bass which carries that F sharp on top then D major with an F sharp bass carries the F sharp in the bottom there we go and good old D major so D major D fifth D slash F sharp again D slash A because A is in the bottom so depending on the chord you have your voicing here and the last way to kind of mess with this technique is what if you have a seventh chord like a dominant seventh chord you know so you know the the key ingredients of a dominant seventh chord would be its root and its dominant seventh which is the flat seven D versus C D going to C so so you can get this cool descending pattern so this would be like a dominant seventh or a major seven it'd be like a augmented chord if you want to look at it that way so you what are we trying to do basically a triad and a seventh chord these chords have a lot of notes they have three or four or a lot of notes so you're trying to tell yourself i will play only two of those notes in the left hand but imagine it and study it and use it just like a triad or a extension or a seventh chord but you're allowed to use only two notes here and we hope that the melody will carry through by playing any way it'll play those notes which you've missed out in the left hand so it declutters the left hand the left hand is a lot nicer and cleaner and it brings out that rhythm it brings out that so the audience is more feeling that rhythm and the harmony is just about enough for feeling the emotion which the song needs to carry so that's about the technique guys let's just revise it and as i told you at the very beginning stay tuned i'm going to teach you a tune which will work with this entire technique it's going to cover pretty much whatever we covered in in the whole lesson most of the lesson was about the G scale then i wandered off i think i went into some forest gum theme which i think is the exact same concept so that's a bonus you can learn that song and yeah you can leave me a comment and maybe i'll do a video of that specific thing so but the technique is really really powerful you can you know let's just actually have some fun before i summarize it let's just play some songs which may not really warrant this technique maybe let's see could work right overdoing it i'm trying to play a nirvana song this way but anyway you get the idea so what i'm going to do now is don't don't like finish the video where we are going to learn a concrete tune so we'll put all this together and let's recap the whole summary of the left hand pattern at least so we've primarily learned this shape on the G G major just a G fifth chord and you whack the pinky first hold it on for dear life and then play this at every and depending on the time signature the length of the chord you want if it's four beats two three four one two two one and and and if it's three one and two and three and two three next bar two three yeah and then hold the pedal for that impact that's how this technique will sound effective by playing the pedal so hold the pedal throughout the deal okay okay and then in the right hand we slowly built up to it we took just the G major scale we looked at all the permutations which will really help build our hand independence then i just jammed a bit to show you hopefully the scope of this technique you can play a variety of music and now let's actually learn some specific music and learn it well and do support us on patreon and get yourself a copy of these notes so let's get to it it's basically what i played in the intro video something like that so so i'll just break down my left hand so the first three are very easy you just have to drop your pinky semi-tonally down G with the consistent D G D F sharp F E E with C it's like a C major over E then E flat with a C on the top D B then you have a C sharp with an A D C which is like a D seventh so let's break that down slowly G D F sharp D F D C E flat C D B C sharp A D seventh or D over C and the melody let's play that together change to F sharp D okay let's do only that break that down F sharp if you're a bit uncomfortable to play so fast notes you can do just simple okay just okay again the whole story first four chords now coming to the minor let's break that down that's E flat C in the bass G A B flat in the right hand what's that B G D which is G major chord and D B in the left okay the ending that's actually a secondary dominant chord which is in A A seventh with a C sharp bass anything in the end you can slow it there whole story again repeat and that's the melody get yourselves a copy if you'd like you can learn the notation it's available on our patreon and thanks a ton for watching this lesson till the very end thanks a ton for supporting our channel it means a lot do do stay on the channel hit that notification bell that'll help subscribe if you haven't already please do that that's important and I will see you in the next one cheers


Alright, what's up internet? Thanks for joining me for perhaps the last stream from this particular shop. This is Life from the Shop. Oh, what's up, valiant cashew? Hope your classes are over, although it is a Friday so you do have some time off. Thanks for joining us. Stop Chris, stop Aaron. Yon, so thank you for joining me for what might be the last stream from this particular shop. If you haven't seen our posts, we are moving soon. Still in Makati, but in a larger space with better parking. Although I will be sad to say goodbye to this particular location. We were here for around two years and this is really where at least the channel in particular grew up. This is where I shot the video that kind of got picked up by YouTube and it started snowballing. We've done a lot of builds in this shop and this is sort of, don't make me cry Revenjan, don't put those crying emojis. I might, I know, my emotions might get the better of me. But yeah, we've done a lot of builds in this shop.  We've done a lot of builds in this shop, there's a lot of history here and it was such a big upgrade from our first shop if you've seen our previous videos where sobrang liit ng first shop namin as in I could stretch out my arms and I could reach both ends without even trying. So it was really more like a closet than a shop. Di ko nga actually, I can't imagine how Gerald used to do the builds before and to pack things. So when we got to this shop, it was really, this space, it was really a godsend kasi mas madali na talaga to do builds and it was an affirmation that medyo tama naman yung ginagawa namin na sa shop na, you know, we business kind of expanded that we could move to a bigger place. So medyo malapit sa Walter Martin yung bagong location. Actually mas malapit sa Don Bosco. If you know Gili, the Chinese car brand, they have a showroom on China Roses. We're right beside Gili. So papasok kayo, we're on the second floor. Pero yung maganda sa bagong location, maraming parking. Tapos we'll have staff on hand dun sa parking. So kung kailangan mo na tulong pagbuhan sa computer or you just need help with directions, somebody will be on hand at the parking lot to help you. So may walkie-talkie yan, so he can radio us na, parating na si Mr. So-and-so or si Miss So-and-so. So it's a lot easier now to find the shop. Although madali rin naman tung current location. Although not for the delivery guys. The delivery guys are always calling me like, Sir, nasa na kayo? Because if you've been to the shop, alam mo na sa gilid kami ng building. You don't need to enter the building, but you do need to pass here through the side. So it was a bit of a hassle for the delivery guys. At least dito sa bagong location yung yung yung yaw, we'll have staff on hand sa parking palang to assist customers and to assist the career pickups. Ah, din. You should be quite familiar with the location. Yung yaw, we're just on Chinarosses. Valiant. Miss namin tung shop, sorry. I will miss it also, but yung yaw parang there are several advantages to moving to a larger space. I'll tell you more about it after we run our usual ad. DIY to our sponsor. Hindi niligan ng PC. Os ay di kailaw na windows. Pero saan ko hukawa ng legit windows? Daming options, daming prices. Aka dito. Udi na lang, may CD keyovers dato. Madali lang ang order. Search for the software you need.

I had to make sure that my mic was on but you can see that we're slowly after how many darn livestreams we're slowly getting used to the technicals of livestreaming. Of course, we'll still be doing the live from the show from the new shop. I saw a question about the new shop like moving out from your home to another house. Yup, it really is in a way. Parang na-attach ka na dito sa luma and then yun nga, we're moving to a bigger spot. But definitely, so if you can see the current shop now, we only have space for two tables and then we have an office table here on the right and then another office table there on the left. So here I am already at the door. You'll notice wala na shelves. We have really dismantled the shelves. So a lot of the stuff is on the floor and the new space is easily double the size of this new, this old space so we can really get more yun, personally when we moved in here hindi naman to nakatambak but even before with the shelves nakatambak na to sa harap and one of the things I'm always ranting about the other wala di naman sa naninira sa competitors but as a consumer yung ayoko dati sa ibang shop sobrang sikip like hindi masaya mag-browse kasi parang piling mo may matatamaan ka may masisipaka So when we put up our own shop I always wanted it to be the kind of place that you can just go to any display and pick up an item look at it and things like that and we were already starting to get really cramped in the old space, like all of these boxes were really dumped here for lack of a better word even before, even when we had shelves here so definitely the new space will allow us to display things better and I want to just work constantly expanding our inventory also more orders more inventory that we can come in but also more headaches to be honest kasi ang hirap to keep track of everything and the more customers to keep track of things but that's part of growing up parang you start out living with your parents or you start out living in the first condo that you can afford na sobrang late and then slowly pag-asenso na you kind of work your way up so that's what we're doing ultimately, I'd like to have my own place because I'm tired of having to deal with landlords and things like that so I'd like to have my own place that's ganda nung exterior, ganda nung display pero medyo malay-ulyo pa atayon in the future but we're always planning we're always thinking ahead here at Hardware Sugar and God willing, hopefully that will come to pass one day but yeah, so this place actually I don't want to super dwell on nostalgia but this place was really rafaelismail in the chat spamming na naman with his member stickers so yeah, this is a good place we shot a lot of videos here especially the first video that really caught YouTube's attention, that parang pinush out sa maraming tao so I'll always be forever grateful to this place yeah, but anyway onward to bigger things hopefully better so we'll start the show proper and tama na sa yak-yak the bench I'm using now is pretty interesting to stream and if suddenly the stream cuts out actually hindi sa amintong computer na to the GPU is ours the SSD is ours but everything else, the MOBO, the CPU and the RAM the PSU is ours but the MOBO, the RAM and the CPU are actually from a customer he bought them from us and they were with him for a while na kakrasya when he does streaming even browsing or spotify mabilis makrasyong computer so we sent back the motherboard and we tried it out, we tested it we couldn't find anything wrong with it so we also asked him for the other parts so the CPU, I think it's a 3800X with the stock cooler I can never remember if it's the Wraith stock cooler with RGB or the other one but this is probably a 3800X and I think the doesn't come with the RGB anyway, so we asked for the CPU back and the trident, let's get a better shot of the trident RAM and I'm using it to stream right now if there's anything if suddenly mawala yung stream that means na crash na yung computer but so far, we've stress tested this over several days we've been running different internet things on it to try to get it to crash but it hasn't crashed and so we're doing this live we're doing live from the shop using the bench from the customer to try to get it to crash actually, ginagami ko kayo lang I'm just using you guys ginagami ko lang to stream na to try to troubleshoot for a customer so sorry that you guys are my guinea pigs but if the customer is watching yeah, here we are we're really trying to stress test your parts to try to get them to crash the only thing that we've been able to identify really is that I think PSU is the problem well this is an EVGA 1200 watts and it's pretty solid we use it also in our other test test benches we've kind of certified that there's nothing wrong with it so for this we posted a little bit about windows before and how windows updates can screw everything up and then we got some comments saying you know it's not really that bad and you can disable windows updates and things, the only thing actually that we've been able to figure out with this system is that we're running an older version of windows it's not W21H I think is the latest update I think we're the one before that I think the customer is running the latest so if it crashes on that then it's a windows software problem which unfortunately is not uncommon but it does show that it's not a hardware problem so some of the comments were like well windows update isn't so bad, I really beg to differ as a shop, every time there's a major windows update customers are always messaging us asking but na walaing bluetooth ko but big lang unstable yung system ko and it's hard to explain that it's not the fault of the hardware that you got from us it's windows so it's always a big headache when a new windows update comes around and I'm super looking forward to windows 11 I'm sure may mga shenanigans in windows 11 pag update but even if we really do try to isolate as much as possible, is it hardware and if it's hardware, alam mo naman yung no BS warranty policy namin we will really replace that pero we first need to identify if it really is hardware and for this particular build we're streaming, no problem everything is green and we have been testing it on our own outside of the stream for a couple of days now so far, we haven't been able to get this thing to break which is what I instruct our staff basically, when somebody brings to the component with something like this na it's not clear what causes it to crash what makes it unstable, so my instructions are always let's make it break, let's try to break the computer, run it on load run it on anything that will stress it out and we'll go from there kasi bol yos, despedida stream ba to naman di naman, I think I can actually still get one more stream from this shop but I don't know, we've kind of accelerated our timetable so we can actually start moving in quite soon, so this really might be the last stream but I'm hoping to get at least one more in in this shop alright, so if you're new to the show, basically I just tour you around what we have in the shop I do have a special request for you guys if you're looking for an AIO, can you please buy this Lumen S24 from us and let us install it, kasi I just want to see like personally in real life gano pa kaganda tong yung CPU block niya, kasi I really, I mean it's so unique looking, this is it's more subdued does it's more mood enhancing rather than like super bright RGB and it's like a it's like an orb so the design setting is really different I'm sure the performance fractal design, how can you go around fractal design, but we did have somebody buy this from us but I think he's installing it on his own so I'll never, I won't get to see it, so if you guys are in the market for a new AIO and you want us to install it, do me a solid and do consider the Lumen S24 one one build, oh here we go okay let's move some boxes one build that we did get confirmation of today what we're gonna do is this guy which I'm also super excited to see in real life the fractal design torrents alright, there you go, and I know it's not much to look at right now, it's in it's in its boring brown box but all of the reviews have been superlative about this guy there was some issue with the included fan hub but I did confirm with our supplier that these are the replaced fan hubs already or the corrected fan hubs and this thing looks great because I wouldn't get it for my own case because I find it too big I'm trying to downsize, if you've seen my old rig you know that my current case is really a monster I'm trying to, I want to downsize that but just aesthetics and air flow on this thing, the torrent fractal design torrents must be really really good so somebody just downpaid for a rig using that case today so I'm super excited oh, for it to for it to do that build, are you guys still there? did we crash? but I can still see my camera froze, right oh, the stream froze stream froze anyone still there? ah, the camera only, okay it's just droid cam on my cell phone okay, because all the other specs were I thought I jinxed it all this talk about, yeah this motherboard is fine and this ano is fine and then I jinxed it pala droid cam back up and running man, just when I was blathering on about how great the torrent was and I had it focused on the torrent but let me try to get droid cam back up and running hang on a sec guys as you know, with all of our stream something always goes wrong but if this is the only thing that goes wrong, okay na we can live with that okay, lemme see if I can get droid cam back up and running alright do you see OBS? yes, alright, there we go alright, so yes well, really not much to look at, we haven't opened it yet but yeah, there's the torrent it was a really good case we got confirmation today that the customer is like, yeah, let's do that build let's do that build using the torrent so I'm super excited to see this guy in action the camera only, it's working fine moving sir to a place also in Makati on Chino Roses, so actually the parking is better it's probably easier to get to although itong giho, I kinda like it it's kinda out of the way but yeah, we're moving to Chino Roses this guy I don't know if this is a new build I'm laughing because, you know, I come into the shop now and we're doing so many things that I really don't quite remember anymore everything like all of the rigs that are going on but I actually think this is a second-hand PC that we are certifying we sold it na as a second-hand PC and it's just waiting for its owner to come in and then yung maganda dito, it still has our one year 500 mesh side panel just clean the screws anyway so this guy is sold already but we still extend our one year no BS warranty even to this which is second-hand actually it doesn't look second-hand at all I couldn't even tell, it's new but this guy is sold out it just hasn't, I mean this particular second-hand has been sold we're just waiting for the owner to pick it up valiant may ribbon-cutting ah, I don't know we don't want to really make it that big a deal let's wait until we upgrade to a super talagang sobrang bongga place and then I guess we can do a ribbon-cutting when we do get to that kind of upper level talagang 2.9 na store it's commercial and it's really easy to get to I'd like to invite of course everybody who follows the channel but also our suppliers we've made a lot of friends because I'm basically talking to them every day kinukulit ko sila ay Ronel, may available na ba yung CPU ay Mayra, available na ba yung GPU ay basically may kulit the suppliers a lot so when we do get a place na pang ribbon-cutting of course I'll invite everyone on the stream and those who follow the channel those who follow the page and customers but I also wanted, I would also invite our friends from the suppliers because without them, they really make my job a lot easier and I'm super thankful na they put up with me being so kulit although to be fair it's not always my fault okay so item, so kailan matasi lang tanongin in stock ba ito or you have this or something sometimes it's yes it's me but I'm just passing on a customer request Pesto Anton, do you have like a trivia like what was the business which used to occupy the space you're moving into this space actually there was nothing here this was a brand new building we were the first business to occupy this actually this is two units we put up this wall so they subdivided the space into two when we wanted a bigger space we were actually thinking of getting the space in front of us also like we tear down this wall like the Berlin wall if that might be a dated reference but anyway we would tear down this wall because we were the ones who put it up also rent also the space in front so we would still be in the same spot but have a much bigger space although for cost efficiency it's cheaper to move because this other space it's on the second floor so it's much bigger but it's also cheaper but it doesn't have a view I will actually miss this kind of like green and you know it's all glass the other one is really enclosed so it is cheaper for the space that we get but we did consider also just expanding the current space that we have here because the unit in front of us but a lot of businesses have closed down during the pandemic and unfortunately they moved out or like they had to close down their business so it's kind of sad but just to answer Pesto's question this particular building and this space specifically wala pang may nobody was here before us so we were the inaugural business and I hope I hope whoever is the occupant of this next space has the same good fortune that we did because it really kind of worked out here I had good times in the shop okay so just a little show and tell which is what we usually do for life from the shop this is actually a fan tech case the Pulse CG71 they sent it to us for review to be honest not the usual type or not the usual price range that we carry in the shop this is a more budget oriented case not too I'm not saying anything negative about that everybody has their own price point and you work with what you have to get the best parts that you can with the budget that you have the staff have set this up but they haven't really started running it yet because they were still using parts in the test bench but it really reminds me of an MSI vampiric so the front looks very much like a vampiric inlet here so like half of the front or a third of the front so that should get some air in at the inside looks very much like a deep cool case where you have the PSU shroud although deep cool likes to have a cut out here so you can see sort of the branding of the PSU there's no cut out here our staff also was complaining Gerald was complaining na walang gromit medyo na to be honest I think our staff also a little spoiled but we really target sort of the more enthusiast level market so the stuff we carry is a bit high end so Gerald was complaining to me na ang sikip mga cable management like this is the PSU already and the space between the PSU and here basically in the cavity behind the PSU shroud there's not much room to cable manage there if you've had a build from us Gerald and Jay take their cable management very seriously we've used an AS500 plus here but I don't know actually this all close this seems to be really jutting out might be too large to be fair not to diss the case usually cases this size wouldn't have a full tower CPU like this I think the AS500 plus is 164mm I think or something which is quite tall for a CPU cooler it is a big boy cooler does fit an ATX case I notice they put in the MSI X570 a pro it does come with three fans and then Phanteks gave us more fans but we were unable to use the fourth one here because the cooler was so big already so I am interested to see how it looks like once we get it up and going around some benchmarks and things like that and again junya it's not I'm always curious to find different items at different price ranges just because we don't usually carry phanteks doesn't mean that I'm not interested in trying to see if there are any good ideas here or for its price we always think like that de parang yes of course it's not the most expensive not the most premium but for its price is it a good buy preliminarily I would think so pero yunya let's oh thumb screws but we will run it through its paces so yeah phanteks prime pulse cg71 I'm just going to go back to the computer to see that everything is still working okay hi sir congrats on the store upgrade thank you it is very much an upgrade really it's a much larger space we can only fit two tables here and the first table is really always for the test bench whatever we're trying to diagnose here in the back for the build sometimes we get multiple builds sometimes we get walk in so it's really becoming yunya parang medyo mahirap na talaga in this existing space we really need to expand but yun it is an upgrade but I will miss this I will miss this old space Christian Perre I like to look of the case yep that's the phanteks pulse cg71 jays beers will you be reviewing the intel 12 gen CPUs we want to baka naman intel baka naman one of our suppliers will send us an intel CPU for review but actually will probably be carrying it because the performance seems to be as good if not better than the current AMD and that's really how we approach things like what's better for the customer we're brand agnostic we really don't care if you're invidia or AMD or AMD or intel but we just really try to get what's best cost to performance wise and lately that's really been AMD it's kind of hard really to recommend intel 10th gen 11th gen but they seem to have turned the corner at least doon sa mga chismis sa benchmarks for the 12th gen and actually I am personally quite excited to to see the 12th gen in action kung hype lang ba to or you know it has intel you know really gotten its performance back stop Janus Rafa Rocky the programmer says I need my grommets we know man we know you were even complaining about the deep cool CG540 na you know walang it did have grommets but like you know they could have added more grommets you see well cost to performance Rocky the programmer actually and Jay and maybe Ren tomorrow will be playing around with this guy the eve spectrum 4k monitor 144hz sent to us for review I personally already played around with it at the house so we're gonna b-roll it here at the shop and oh I did not mean to mess up the how are we going to unpeel darn it so thoughts on the eve spectrum it's an interesting monitor also in part because it's not from a big brand like samsung LG asus the origins of eve are interesting parang they started on kickstarter or one of those bootstrap projects this one is very apple it doesn't come with a base so you can just when you buy the monitor it's just a monitor because based on the research a lot of the enthusiasts have vesa mounts naman which is true it also doesn't come with any cables of any sorts no display cable no hdmi cable again aesthetic na very minimalist and assuming that yeah they probably have already something in their house or in their stock for that so very minimalist I love the back of this I love this stand this is like a club and it's really hefty super bigot nito there's a triangle which is their logo which reminds me of the assassin's creed guys who's the big bad corporation in assassin's creed basically when I see this kind of triangle if you play assassin's creed but you can find these memory fragments I'm always waiting when I see this I'm like okay unlock a memory fragment or something but I do like this stand not that you see much of it from the front the front is actually very again apple like austere very minimalist if you know me might taste a little I like a bit more aggression in like aesthetic so this like the square base doesn't appeal to me I like the triangle of the asus monitors but the monitor itself was quite good and yeah they're gonna try it out in the shop tomorrow but okay lemme just kinda paranoid now so I gotta make sure the stream still working alright did they are 5 rams valiant they are coming I mean that's really my only comment they're coming basically at this point if you're thinking of 12th gen intel will support ddr5 I I guess the 6000 series of amd because they're also moving to a different socket format am4 will support that as well um as usual whenever you know there's an upgrade in number there's a connotation that it's much faster and things like that but I haven't really you know I haven't gotten my hands on any ddr5 yet so I can't really say from experience although so we're kind of in a nebulous area right now if you're thinking of buying a new rig you might want to wait a little bit not just for prices to hopefully go down but if you buy an amd rig now this is it this is the height of that platform kasi wala nang lalabas na bagong am4 socket CPUs so your mobile will only be up to the 5000 series and that's assuming you get something like the x570 most likely I think it's ddr5 for the next gen of amd same with intel well intel mas malalapa di ba parong every generation they change socket so you might want to wait a little bit just so that it's more future proof and I kind of like cringe when I say future proof kasi um we've talked about before how it's not you know it's really hard to determine what is future proof and things like that but if you want to if you have an eye towards upgrading you might want to wait a little bit kasi these current platforms the amd 5000 series and then the intel 11th gen are basically the pinnacle already ito na yung pinakadabes na mabuta nila the next up will be will feature different RAM feature different motherboard sockets and things like that rocket programmer is evesa compatible yeah it is that's why they made the stand optional so the stand is extra kasi they figure that you have your own stand at home evesa stand that you will mount the monitor on to which I think is smart but at the same time um it's talking to a very specific market itong eve spectrum 4k 144 hertz alright the next up for show and tell is this bonkers bonkers build that we are still waiting for the case of but um so basically we had a client come to us and he said that you know I want a PC that it needs to be Razer Chroma kasi Razer Chroma can talk with Philips U kasi he wants his computer RGB to sync up also with the lights in his room so it was really kind of difficult RGB is really difficult to to figure out even in the best of circumstances where you get it all from the same manufacturer sometimes the parts just won't work on auto power, on a daisy chain so you need another fan hub or things like that it gets even more complicated if you have multiple brands so we really had to kind of do our research here but basically this is the pinakatop of the line that you can get so we have a 5950X CPU 3090 RTX AORUS Xtreme 3 not 1 but 3 NVMe M.2 drives and 2 terabytes at that so 3 2 terabytes so this is 6GB right here plus he has a 16 terabyte iron wolf is this iron wolf pro I can't, I think it is pro I'm just going to order this is there an iron wolf pro iron wolf for those not familiar oh yeah it is iron wolf pro I can see it says pro there iron wolf is the line C gate specifically made for NAS or network attach storage meaning that they are rated to run faster, they are more durable they are rated to run longer than their normal baracuda line because they assume that things in NAS or network attach storage will be running more frequently than normal hard drives so the streamer plus cables oh 24 pin for the motherboard but this is the one for triple 8 pin so this is the special version of the streamer plus you know it has a three eight pins for the gpu uh kraken z73 for aio the lovely and i can't wait to when we start building this the lovely x570 tai chi from asrock um if you i mean there's velcro and it opens up i mean it maximize your device with razor synapse three so this is really like wow damn look at this i've actually complimented the tai cheese before um i've mentioned them in the streams in the videos that i really like the look of the tai chi um so this is the razor edition of that of that motherboard um look at those heat sinks just aesthetically performance it's supposed to be good also but i mean uh it's it's it's a statement motherboard i mean it's kind of like the b550 vision naparang you look at it and you're like wow damn i mean look at look at this thing and astrakos package it accordingly like you know like you're opening um a premium graphics card or a premium headset actually i don't know i think head when i when i see these velcro things i think headset so rounding out the our case rgb is the uni fans sl120 not one not two but three of these guys and their triple packs so these are nine of the uni fans that we're going to put into the case and what is the case that is what we are waiting for the uh lian li o11d razor edition and so we have to get all razor para compatible sila sila lahat sa chroma except for the z73 the customer was just really blown away with the lcd display so he decided na okay i don't mind having you know separate cam software and then the razor chroma will take care or synapse rather will take care of all the other rgb where i'm hoping crossing my fingers that lian li is supposed to work with razor synapse supposed to right supposed to i'm crossing my fingers na na tama ngayon and we're just gonna have to cross our and then you know it'll eventually also sync up with his phillips u on paper you know everything on paper looks good but um we don't know yeah that's a really problem sometimes with computers um you just have to build it and see if everything works and powering this beast will be the hx 1000 from course here 1000 watts again no expense spared um i don't want to mention the cost of this computer on camera but it is it is a pretty penny i'm super excited to build um you know not me that our tech again as i mentioned before our tech guys do much do builds much better than me uh their work is much more polished much more quality than when i build so it wouldn't be me touching these things but um i'm excited to see it all built up but yeah we're still waiting for the case and actually we had a problem with that because it was supposed to come in but it didn't and things like that um but anyway uh lots of headaches a lot lots of headaches running a shop uh kirk yes i went he kirk saying he went to here kanina i know um i saw the uh the staff it's always updating me on slack like who came in and stuff like that so i understand you got your ring now congrats that's a nice rig z 53 pangayong aio deba you added uh you added uh you added the z 53 i o ah um to be honest like i'm not in the store often um i mean i randomly pop in occasionally um but uh it's it's a little hard to catch me at the shop is what i'm saying um although i do pop in randomly um but but i i do appreciate thank you for supporting the channel and from buying from us but most important is the yunya um you know we're a shop i mean aside from the youtube the facebook and all those social media kalakohan we're really primarily a shop and um you know i'm really super thankful to all the people who trust us with their money to buy from us rocket programmer bonkers to build asli u 390 don't give the customer any ideas kasi i feeling ko uh he might be tempted to s li 390 but i mean you know the well that it's not i mean i also couldn't in good conscience recommend that because i have a performance gains mo if you s li i mean it's although i did um itx adik recommended a video to me where he did the guy on the youtube channel did s li the uh 30 90s but i i was just shaking my head i'm like why man why you don't really need to go down that road i mean that's too much na um so i mean i couldn't in good conscience uh recommend on s li 30 90 unless yeah you're mining or something like that although this one i i know is not meant to be a minor the torrent case actually the the case for the torrent is supposed to be a minor that's a long story actually because i i was um trying to tell the customer that yunya um please if this is for a minor you you want a different kind of setup medyo open air you want um you want like motherboard with a lot of pc i e so cables but um and i talked about this in my previous stream i think two days ago on crypto watch where it's a bit difficult explaining like what kind of minor you want to have um but anyway the the customer ultimately of course the customer decides and they were like okay na to so we're like okay and yunya well i'm excited now that will also have uh the the torrent build will also have a 30 90 um but that will be for mining this o11 razor build will just be for basically pure aesthetics uh but he will have the most powerful gaming build in the philippines pretty much with uh with dual 30 90s uh kaiser performance gains are nothing compared to aesthetics right i mean well yeah to be this build to be honest um well a lot of it went to performance so you got i mean like bonkers man two t three two tbs and vme and uh and and nine seven evil plus 16 terabyte thing 30 90 of course but you know i mean you could really like um a big boy cool air cooler would have been just as good performance wise as z 73 not knocking the z 73 but yunya it brings other things to the table um the streamer plus you don't the pure aesthetics man pure aesthetics i mean we all know that making your rgb red adds plus 10 fps so like plus 10 fps plus 10 fps 20 fps na to then maybe plus two fps per fan so how many does that get us right but yeah i mean this build there are other considerations other than just um straight up performance and we we also want to cater to that i mean as long what makes you happy di ba as long as you're happy with the build that you're getting it could be because it's a screamer build could be it's a nice looking build but not a screamer it could be both both a screamer and the performance build and an rgb build so di ba whatever makes you happy and really try to cater to that uh god have those pcie slots filled amen i don't feel incomplete when you know you have these uh these guys like empty empty empty gotta fill those guys up aero and when you think that the price of parts will fall um you know they were already falling um they have they were falling around june i think was the best that i've seen them in a long while now they've started picking up again but it's kind of interesting kasi it's not indi sila in in sync like ram will go up then ram will go down monitors are constantly going up i've noticed cpu's were good before now they're starting to go up gpu's actually are not so bad essentially now with the lhr models where um if you're you're not going to be mining you can just get a good lhr model those are cheaper than the non lhr but yung um yeah cpu's have been going up monitors i noticed have been going up quite dramatically percentage wise but since you know everybody's like obsessed with gpu even if you're kind of a beginner you think oh pc you think gpu but actually a lot of the other prices have been quietly going up as well cpu monitor um ram actually memory is always very volatile um ram and ssd sometimes they go up and sometimes they're weighed down so and this is like in the span of a month or two months or something like that so psus have been a little stable with a little price increase i've noticed so when are they going down they have already gone down somewhat from their peak um but you know they're constantly going up and down so it's really difficult to to to say stop john paul bonifacio good afternoon will you guys also get stocked for halo rx 6900 what brand is that um is halo zotac um i'm not sure to be honest if you're asking if we're going to be stocking the rx 6900 oh they're really a tough sell um kasi if you're super high end you kind of look towards invidia and we have a limited budget as a shop so we're always just trying to buy the things na medyo alam namin na mababenta kagad um so it is a tough sell we might you know if it's a cost of order we probably might be able to to get it but uh we have no plans of actually stock like you know having it permanently on stock and so of course show and tell would not be complete without the new shirts if uh you've missed somehow our facebook posts or youtube posts and all of those other posts we have our first merchandise like official merchandise um we have three different kinds of shirts this is pc anatomy in white pc anatomy in black and pc anatomy rgb which is this guy so you'll find much better pictures on our facebook store and uh our site our site also has them um these are limited edition in the sense that we will never be reprinting them we might reprint in different sizes because we've had a lot of requests actually for pc uh pc anatomy rgb black which is only up to large um because our supply ran out lat may supply issues even yung even yung uh t shirts um so yeah if you're the the i'm quite proud of these shirts like rafael my brother helped design them the staff helped design them so everybody pitched in to to contribute their ideas and things like that and then the thing we were going for was you have a friend who's not into computers but wants to learn it's super easy to point to your shirt and say that oh you know this is the ram this is the cpu and things like that uh and it's just a fun shirt we didn't really go super oa with the branding like we didn't tattoo hardware sugar everywhere on the shirt it's more it's more of an enthusiast shirt na you know when people see it you're like oh you're you're a computer guy because obviously based on the design you know it's a computer um in computer parts and things like that so it's not really so much like oh hardware sugar hardware sugar it's more like again para more enthusiast level so we will not be uh reprinting these guys that's the only edition we'll have i mean you know we we might change up the colors at a certain point maybe change the design a little bit but this particular design um you know we want all of our runs to be like that um if you know we make a shirt uh yun na yun it's really a limited run kind of like magic baka makapa third ed fourth ed may conting um there might be some cosmetic changes but they'll never again be like that exact exact design um electric screw drivers for pc building i have not used them myself i'm always using manual screw drivers or no screw drivers at all um sometimes although if you're really building i mean with with a gpu and depending on your case you might be able to get away with no screw drivers but like you're you're building building um you do need a screwdriver um one thing that you is screw drivers also useful for you notice that this this bench is not uh connected to a case so to turn it on and it doesn't have a power button which some motherboards like my motherboard does so to turn it on i had to jump start it using the jfp one uh headers here so i got my screwdriver and stuck it in there and that's how you jump start a motherboard that's not connected to a case so screw drivers in general are super useful um i've never used an electric one personally i don't see anything wrong with it as long as you're careful although i do know other builders who have um who have recommended against it because you don't have as much control with uh with an electric screwdriver it's not really necessary at least you know from my point of view because you don't really you're not really screwing a lot i mean you know you you turn the screwdriver but it's not like you have to do that for like 20 minutes before the screw is actually in there so you don't need the super fast performance of the electric screwdriver but again you know i have nothing against it personally as long as you're careful and you know you don't go crazy and go like that um actually uh this this is uh since rocket programmer is watching rocket programmer i got us um foam i think these are panang i don't know these are pvc but these are much thicker so these are the white foam pads so pang yung sa unboxing natin bukas um hopefully these come out better on video so there are two of them so that we can put the item on the thing and then the other one is the backdrop so hopefully those come out better than just like claim c cartolina uh because they the staff will be doing a lot of stuff actually at the shop tomorrow um a roll for a graphics card review a graphics card actually which was lent to us by a customer a customer and one of our hard uh youtube top fans he bought a gigabyte 30 80 ti and then he was like why don't you guys use it like i'm like are you sure because you just bought it i it's literally brand new and he's like yeah yeah um i'll go to the store i'll pay for it but i won't get it you guys open it and um yeah play around with it like benchmark it um try do some mining on it you know see see how good it is and um again like that a super thank you to that customer and just in general we have a lot of customers who are very generous with their time and with their resources who really help out the shop so um no exaggeration i'm super their time the expertise um you know the hardware they have so i'm really thankful for that uh and yeah i can't think of any other store that has its customers lending items to the store instead of balik tad um we had a customer who gave us his old 20 80 super which he also bought from us uh which is now serving as a replacement gpu so with another customer so apparently we always try to what goes around comes around like you know we get some items in we lend them out when needed um we hope to have some giveaways during this christmas for some of the items sent to us for review that you know we don't we're not really using a lot of so you know it'll be better if somebody else might be able to benefit from it so we hope to have uh kind of like a giveaway series in in christmas um that that's also one good point of the moving is that we'll be able to take stock of like some of the items that got sent to us for review kasi medyo na tatambak na sila sa likod um so i'm looking forward to a better managed inventory and like um process of like oh where'd this item go and can we give this away na and things like that um yeah so the staff will be here tomorrow to well um get b-roll of the spectrum do their view on their graphics card and get b-roll on a motherboard um yeah 6600 xt around 60k um we did sell one 6600 xt um i think it was around 20 plus thousand 25 i think so if just based on that i guess kaya naman might be a bit tight to be honest um 500 600 x is around 17 000 the gpu guys maybe around 25 or so wish um so that's more than half your budget right there i guess kaya but you really cut some corners maybe 70 to 80 might be you know a better um uh budget for that for for that rig guys are following gm's t-shirt release i see uh gamers nexus actually uh is gm like that like it's panel limited edition um i haven't really followed the merch of the other youtubers uh all i know is linus's underwear because when i heard that i'm like that's one merch will definitely never have here in hardware sugar uh just because i why why why underwear um but i know gamers nexus has the mouse pad which actually looks very nice it's super large and it has like the uh schematics or diagrams um we did have i don't know if he's still in the chat but we did have a subscriber on youtube who ordered from linus tech tips the the the lttstore.com and the the merch that they sent over well he bought it was really high quality and fairness so yon uh hardware sugar underwear when j or u will be the models kasi ako hanggang t-shirt ng ako and even that i was already cringe for me so um definitely not doing underwear definitely not doing underwear um yeah mod mats in beer cups yeah i was actually surprised with the beer cups na with uh gamers nexus um because you're like really uh does beer and do come beer and computers go pero um um i guess pasty do you have a link for your online store yes it's www.hwsugar.ph and here we go but we have now if your plan is to pick it up from the uh we're calling it don't are we calling it the the don bossco store now uh if you're planning to pick it up from the new location please don't buy it kasi we are not uh game game talaga um we don't we haven't we haven't moved yet to the don bossco or the china rosses location so if if your plan is to pick it up from there hold off for maybe two weeks we'll have settled in by there at that point all right so it's dark out and i actually do have some other errands that i need to do oh we do have some thermal pads so when it's a bit um the the workload that sort of died down in the shop i want to experiment with replacing the thermal pads on a gpu so we'll do ours first wow this is quite large so we'll do it our first on our test uh gpus in our own gpus here in the shop and if it works out then baka we can offer it as a service to customers actually sometimes it's very difficult taking off the heat shroud of the of a gpu um so i'm always a bit scared when we start offering new services like that kasi it there's a big potential that you know you're you're opening up the gpu you don't want to screw anything up like you're moving stuff and what if we can't get it back on and things like that so we'll take our time with this but it is something that i want to consider or that we are considering and that's why we kind of stocked up on thermal pads hardware sugar face mask uh sign of the times right actually last year i got an orus uh orus um face mask that one's pretty cool i still actually use that so hardware sugar asukal uh we are the sweetest pc store in town even if we don't have uh branded sugar to our name so yeah so you really know that the writing is on the wall literally because there is there are no more shelves um and the shop is looking a bit it's uh a bit more cramped or you know with all the boxes and things but yeah we'll transition to the new place maybe i'll be able to do one last stream from here i will miss this place so but if this is the last stream from 7625 giho thanks so much um thank you giho center it it's been uh i'll never forget really like you know it was pandemic last year and ako yung pinakamalapit dito sa shop eh my place is near here so like madalasta ako lang papasok to because the staff was scattered to the four winds wala pa si jay si jerald nasa qc di di makabalik sa dito sa bakati um so a lot many days it was just me here at the shop packing items sending things out um and you know medyo uh yung right after lockdown parang nakakapadibago di ba parang you're you're wondering like should i should i be outside can i can i is it is it you know could i catch it just by being here and talking to the careers and the delivery guys so wild times really um and yung at this is where we shot the first that video na medyo medyo sumikat talaga sa youtube um and it still is it still is a quite popular video and actually i've come to kind of get annoyed with that video um the atk video i'll be talking about is um the mistakes or the the stupid shit i've said in my videos that turned out to be wrong and there's actually like a big very beginner mistake in that video and i'm kind of embarrassed about it but that video won't die it won't die ayaw mamatay so i'm oh you know our other videos sometimes they'll be popular but eventually they die down you know konti lang yung nanunood per day pero that particular video ayaw talaga mamatay and it's like it's like it's like it's a bit of a joke really i mean personally for me i kind of like i think it's kind of ironic that the video or panwari like i'm a tech expert or whatever whatever i'm just talking about tech and then like there's a super basic mistake there but that's a video na people get have you know started to get to know us from so there's all kind of i there's all kinds of ironies there and i'll talk about that more in the atk special video pero i i do find that video kind of embarrassing but again it won't die and it's given us a lot of subscribers and it really started us on the path that we're on now and that all started here actually i shot it um i even remember so the the the shelves are back here and i shot it so i put the camera here and then so it was kind of like facing like that so you could see the shelves in the background um which was uncommon in the later days i used to put the camera here so that i you could see whatever test bench we were using in the background um yeah so i don't know you know i'm i'm sorry to get uh nostalgic i'm i know this uh this trivia is kind of banal but um hayon thanks so much for tuning in for uh live from the shop and yeah if this is the swan song of giho thank you you have served us well i hope you serve your next tenant just as well have a good weekend guys stay safe
