Welcome to the last show, or the last in-the-shop show for the year. Merry Christmas to everyone. I hope everybody got what they wanted for Christmas. And we will, parang for the start of the show, what's up Hans? Merry Christmas. For the start of the show, we will go through what we got. And the first one is thank you to ROG, ASUS ROG for, among other things, this cap. I'm not actually much of a cap person. Is there any field shy out there when I'm wearing this cap? I feel like parang medyo chawan ako. But thanks ASUS, we're probably gonna just keep the cap in the shop. I'm not a cap person. But also thank you to ASROC for this shirt. It says I'm a gamer, and yes, I am a gamer. It also has the Phantom Gaming logo here on the side, the PG logo. I think the PG one, you know, it's a brand, it's how they differentiate their motherboards. I think it's like the PG Velocita. We had a video on some of the ASROC motherboards, like a couple of months ago, and we did mention the PG Velocita. So that's just some of the swag we got over Christmas. And here's some of the other stuff. ASUS has kindly lent us the TUF-K3 keyboard, at which we did review this keyboard. So I won't go through the specs again, but it is magnetic, so it clips on nicely, so you can take it off and stick it back on. Paolo Santos says, wala pa rin YouTube. 16.07.407. It's true, though. It says I'm connected on YouTube, but I'm getting zero view. So actually, I don't know what's going on there. Let me try to go into the stats a bit. Did you guys be seeing that? Oh, okay. I won't show that. Oh, you're right. It still is down on YouTube. I don't know what's going on. Still says sending data. I've tried to change the YouTube server from primary to backup and vice versa, but it's still not working. Anyway, I'll just continue to stream and I will upload this to YouTube later. Also, thank you to ASUS who have lent us the M3 mouse, which is also the tough M3 mouse, which we also reviewed. So we got the M3, the K3, and not shown on screen is the H3, the headset because I can't use it because I prefer to do the wireless Corsair one. Aside from that, we also got this Nifty mouse pad from Aceroc. You can see how large it is. It's also the PG mouse pad from Aceroc and quite nice actually, a very nice feel. ASUS also kindly lent us the P3, the Pad 3, which is their version of the mouse pad, the tough mouse pad. So, okay. We got a comment from YouTube, so I guess it's working. Thanks, Morse Vance, for commenting on YouTube. Although I'm still not getting viewers, so I really don't know what the heck is going on. But anyway, so we got the cap, we got the keyboard, and of course, thank you also to ASUS for, you know, a long time ago, ASUS lent us its monitor. They haven't asked for it back, so it's always in the shop. You can always see it actually in the YouTube video, so you've done a review on it. NGXT also, not part of the Christmas gifts, but NGXT lent us these fans a long time ago. We're still using them for display, quite nice. ASUS also lent us this Corsair 6, also a long time ago. They also haven't asked for it, so if anybody, if you guys know anybody from ASUS, don't remind them that this stuff is still with us. Although the K3, the M3, and the H3, and the P3, the headset, did come just in time for Christmas, so thanks very much ASUS, and also this cap, the ROG cap. All right, and something else we got, courtesy of Astrox was the Z490, sorry, not Z, the B460-ST Legend. So this is an Intel board actually, and that's why we haven't been able to review it, because we haven't done a lot of Intel builds, to be honest. But it has the Steel Legend, let me flip it.  It also has the kind of camo imprint they do now on the board. So Astrox was also kind enough to lend this to us. We haven't been able to use it yet, but I am planning an Intel test trig or test bench for the shop, just like the test bench we have over there, which is AMD Ryzen. So we're going to be using this guy sooner rather than later. Just why, let me put it away first. Still no joy with the YouTube. I mean, we got one comment and then it died. Although everything else seems to be working, audio is good, video is good. Sorry, let me just try again on the see what's going on with the YouTube. It still just says sending data here in the restream console. Anyway, yeah, let me close that. And Revinjan asks, how do you guys handle special orders? Basically, just message us what you need and then we try to find it. First, we confirm with the supplier that we can get it and then once we do confirm that we tell the customer and if the item is hard to find, we do ask for a down payment but if it's major sort of standard that we feel that we can probably sell it if the buyer backs out, we will just go ahead and get it and then let you know when it's when we have it and then you can buy it from the shop. And says streamkey for YouTube. I don't know, I didn't change anything about the settings. The last livestream we did was pwede magtanong before Christmas and then I haven't changed any settings. Have I changed any settings after that? Edit settings. Well, I'm just gonna monkey around with restream later. I'll remove channel and then I'll try to put it back in. Anyway, so Facebook gets to be Facebook is the only one live now and then I'll just upload this to re- I'll download it from Facebook to YouTube which is that's a problem with computers. Sobrang gulo. Like one thing is working just fine on one moment and then the next it's not. But let's move on with some of the stuff that we have in the shop that actually we just have restocked so there's a lot of new things in the shop and one of those new things which is always in demand are these guys. So we have the NZXT AIOs back in stock and we have the whole line the X53, the X63 the X73 and the Z63. For those of you guys who are looking for the LCD CPU block or you know the LCD screen on the CPU block only the Z63 has that. These other guys the X series they don't have that they are actually quite similar to the X52s and X62 the ones from the previous gen it's just that NZXT claims that they've changed the pump a little bit to make it more efficient and a bit quieter but these guys the 53, 63 and 73 are just basically a refresh model so not much has changed. What most people look for are the is the Z63 which is the one with the LCD screen. Please note that everything I show here might not be on our website yet because um we've been very busy with Christmas we've been on holiday since December you know our last day was December 23 so to be honest I haven't had the time to update the site yet with the new inventory. They're not going to see these AIOs yet but I do plan to do an all night or tonight so by tomorrow morning everything that we have in the shop should be on the site again and another thing which everybody asks about is here are our stock of 3,000 series and video cards so we still have one colourful 3060ti and we have did I put it away? We do have the Hoff the Hall of Fame Galax 2080 Super so this is a very massive card and yes it's the 2,000 series but the thing with the Hoff series is that they really engineer them to basically they overclock the heck out of it but they make sure that the coolers on the card and the other features they put on the card can handle the overclocking so it's significantly faster than a stock 2080 Super is the Hoff or the Hall of Fame version sorry we do have the colourful 3060ti oh and yes we have the MSI can the camera see it? okay so we have a lot of couple of people ask about this we do have the 3060ti Ventus and the 3070ti Ventus again not yet on the site but it will be by tomorrow morning because oh shoot I do have plans actually tonight but whatever I will get around to I will get around to updating them so that by tomorrow morning they will have the site will have all of our stock available what also came in is the thermal take put this guy here so we talked about AIOs this one is for custom liquid water cooling this is the C360 these are soft tubes actually we have another and I don't know if you can see it up there up there but we do have another kit it's the Pacific but it's also soft tube to be honest we're just really kind of experimenting with what people are looking for because we don't have a lot of experience selling these custom liquid water cooling kits so this is the soft tube and there are pros and cons again we don't do a lot we don't do custom liquid water cooling in the shop because we don't have enough experience with it we'll probably monkey around with it you know we'll do a test build before we offer that kind of service to our customers because we don't want to screw up and say that we're good at custom liquid water cooling and there's a leak pala or there's a leak the gasket is not properly fitted or things like that bye bye expensive 5600XT or whatever CPU you have in there not to mention everything else the mobile, the the GPU and things like that but we are trying to stock some custom liquid water cooling parts and it's something again it's it's not very cost efficient actually because we're still figuring out what to get and yeah we don't really know we don't really know what we're doing yet at this point for custom liquid water cooling but I'm a big believer in learn as we go and we'll figure it out internet connection just dropped to zero kilobytes per second but now it's back up on green so this is not a very smooth I mean a lot of stuff going on Jeremy asks do we have an NZXT H510 white? and yes we do here it is actually yeah H510 and then it is white okay since we're on the cases people have asked about I mean so we started on the cases here's another H510 this one is also white so we do have that in stock we're gonna be updating that later since I forgot my usual tripod at home I had to improvise with these H510 elites so we have the main camera up there perched on three of the 510 elites these are all white actually but I think did we order black? oh no I think we all got white panang out of stock yung black we have six of these guys these are all very popular because of the RGB the front glass case and then the two 140mm RGB fans that come included with the H510 elite usually people okay let's orient it on the H510 elite usually a lot of people do oh well you can see it here do an all NZXT setup meaning even the AIOs are NZXT the problem with that is if you can actually we did a YouTube video on this for one build so a lot of people want a 240mm AIO NZXT the problem is you can't fit them here in the back so it has to go here in front but it won't fit with the AIO fans so you need to remove the radiator fans stick the radiator behind the RGB fans so basically it's here and so that you're able to fit the 240mm rad which is how it's displayed actually on the box but that's not very efficient because you would want to have the fans of the radiator so it really depends on you if you want that aesthetic we can do it and we've done it before and a lot of people ask us on YouTube how to do it but it's not too it's not very efficient you basically remove the you need to remove the fan radiator so there's a lot less heat being removed from the radiator itself basically the only thing pushing heat are the two front fans and this case is pretty but the front is glass it's not mesh there aren't a lot of holes for cool air to enter the front of the case immediately it's already it's hamstrung by the lack of access points for clean air to get in and then you remove but the radiator fans so again it's something we can do but it's not really ideal but if you're not going to overclock the CPU and you want that aesthetic we can do that okay let's ask this answer some of the questions from Facebook is actually a very small crowd so we can do the questions unlike when things used to work and I could connect to YouTube there'd be a lot more people and you know I couldn't deal with all of the chat and stuff like that Jeremy ask pa shout out shout out Jeremy are you the guy who also asked about the H510 white? I can't find the video I can't find the comment oh yeah you are the same guy jet ask planning to purchase Synology NAS any other options other than Synology you could build your own actually I've been wanting to do a NAS for a long time and I did think about Synology but finally at the end of the day I just built my own from an old computer basically we're using it as a media server so there are pros and cons to that pro is if it's an old computer you don't really need to spend a lot the con is the cost sorry yeah the con is the electricity cost because it's a full rig that I'm using and you would use less power with a dedicated NAS because they really choose the parts that you don't need a lot of bells and whistles for the NAS but I'm happy to report actually that on the old PC that I'm using I'm only using around 80 watts per hour 80 to 90 watts because I got I got one of those things that measures the electricity consumption on the appliance so actually I'm only using around 80 to 90 watts per hour on the on that media server and that's a big deal kasi kailangan nakabukas yun all the time so anytime of the day kaya 3 am when somebody wants to watch a video kaya niyang buksan yung app I'm using Plex and then they can just watch any video that's on the media server so not too bad that it saved me a lot of money because basically wala kung cash out o do yung power consumption is around 80 to 90 watts per hour any other brands aside from Synology I didn't go that far into my research we don't really sell NAS here in the shop although we did have another do-it-yourself NAS from a customer recently I posted about it on Facebook na he had six hard drives for the NAS and he had to find a case that could fit six and then we also had to medya pricey yung motherboard that we got kasi we needed to find six six we needed to find a motherboard that would have six SATA connectors available but that worked out sorry, I'm still trying to figure out YouTube so I'm in Restream and then I am although you know at this point even if I go live on YouTube like half the show is already finished so I'm really just going to delete that and put and upload it anyway so that people can see the sponsor thingy as well so again to heck with YouTube figure that out later alright ah something else I wanted to show you guys so this is sort of my pet pee one of my very many pet peeves with computers in general so we have two great monitors here actually we have the bank EW2780Q and then we have the EX27080Q so the only difference in naming between these two guys is one letter this guy's W and this guy's X but this guy is more of a multimedia monitor it's a 5ms response time it's 60Hz this one is a gaming monitor it's 144Hz and I think 1ms response time so one letter differentiates them but their specs are super different from each other and especially for monitors this drives me crazy kasi yung mga pangalan nila it's so hard to remember what they are like they're always just a bunch of strings like numbers and letters and then sobrang nakakalito kung panayong ano sobrang nakakalito which model refers to which oh we are getting some comments from YouTube again but still now it's just as buffering Hans actually like I said might be the stream key but I said that it was fine kanina when we did pwede magtanong before Christmas now it just as buffering so maybe it's just really something up with YouTube for the live so one of my pet peeves especially for monitors is that the manufacturers don't make it easy for you na you know to differentiate between the different monitors even the same manufacturer like that bank one can have multiple monitors and then yung pakaiba lang nila at least dun sa pangalan it's just one letter pero sobrang layo nung specs nila like yung EW mas bagay yan sa nag-edit or na for photo shoot because yun nga you don't really need the speed and it's an IPS panel the EX is better for gamers because you have the 144Hz I think one millisecond response time it also has USB Type-C so ibang iba siya and yet yung pakaiba lang sa pangalan is one letter so that was really kind of annoying and it's not just the bank guys um a lot of the in fact i joke with our suppliers na ano ba naman yan wala ba kayong maiisip na pangalan you know for this model and things like that because it's just really quite difficult to remember what model number you want to buy tapos chichek mo pa yun na like ito yung hinahanap ko the supplier will offer you something that's chichek mo pa talaga na aw yun nga yung yun nga yung kailangan ko so that is one of my pet peeves and actually i'm thinking of doing a video where i just talk about like the pet peeves i have regarding computer hardware in general or like yung mga services nung ibang suppliers services of like software services that you can get online like online services um what os did did our guy use did the customer use for the do-it-yourself nas to build it was actually parang free nas or cute nas or something like that he was just going to run it off the off a usb drive so i think it was free nas or something like that for my do-it-yourself the one at home i'm just running windows plex can run runs fine on windows so no need to do i didn't want to monkey around anymore with figuring out nas software and i'm not using it for backup i mean i guess that's the important thing i'm using it for media server kumbig lang mawalay lahat ng downloads ko i'd be sad pero okay lang so i'm not using it like in a raid setup where data redundancy is very important which is probably where you would want more a specialized kind of nas software so kanikanyang use case we're always big here at hardware sugar about like what are you going to use the computer for and these are the parts we recommend for that so that you don't waste money same thing if you're going to use it as a media server libre naman yung plex libre naman yung windows 10 but i think open nas or cute nas or free nas or something like that i think those os ones are also free hands pronunciation of bank i don't know i've always pronounced it bank like the q becomes a k i don't know a lot of people say ben q i think that's actually how most people say it but i don't know parang instead of just two syllables ben q parang pagdali na lang na bank then i figure it's german so they like these run on things but i really don't know to be honest i don't know how you pronounce it although i did have a talk with the asus guys when i met them very early on like 2 years ago na is it asus or asus and actually they explained that their name comes from pegasus from greek mythology the winged horse so pegasus so asus i guess asus would be the closest to pegasus how much ang gtx 1650 super or 1660 super sa store ninyo i do not have the prices memorized just checked on our website it's here on the livestream hardwishruger.ph and ordinarily i would say that the site has all of our inventory plus updated prices however as i mentioned at the start of the stream petro tinamad ako for the past two days because of christmas and everything going on so it hasn't been updated yet with new stock but i will do that tonight so i'm going to take you to the back room now because i do want to show you guys the back this is literally the back end of hardwishruger let's start first with the stuff that we are going to have to return once people go back to work sorry asrock so this is a b550mc legend our customer actually bought a 5000 ryzen series cpu from us and he asked us if we could update the mobile for him the mobile bios and we're like sure no problem the problem is so he also got this board from us the problem is this guy apparently nipagalong karakanda yung bios ng asrock for the b550m because we were able to update it properly but it would not accept the 5000 series even though we had updated it to the latest bios version already so we're going to send this back to our supplier and in the meantime the customer just got another board from another manufacturer this guy also from a customer that bought a full rig from us it's the mpg x570 gaming procarbon wifi and actually it had a really weird error message the overcurrent defective and you know if you look that up online it's more there so it happens more in laptops because parang there's something shorting out the usb but we had nothing plugged into the usb of this thing so we really couldn't quite figure it out so that guy is going back to the supplier as well to kind of figure out it's beyond our capacity to troubleshoot but you know that supplier is pretty good he's pretty straight with us so I have no doubt that it will get back to us eventually a lot of people buy stuff with us and then just ask them to store it kasi para siguro do na oh I thought actually there was somebody at the door but might be hearing things but this is not a real live episode of phantasmagoria or whatever that scary whatever that scary game is that everybody's playing now but if something does happen to me I hope you report it to whoever like somebody suddenly just burst in here but that'd be kind of freaky so let's go back to the back room a lot of customers buy stuff and then they say keep it mo na para you know binobo ko pa namin yung rig binobo ko pa yung rig na gusto ko so actually we are it's very humbling actually people will spend thousands tens of thousands of pesos and then they trust us enough to say na sige sa inyo mo na so this is one such build on reserve H510 White Kraken X53 Galax 2060 actually the only thing we're and it's an Intel CPU and the PSU is in the back the only thing we're waiting for for this build is extra AER2 fans those are the NCX2 fans the ones that you saw on display on our test bench the problem is our supplier has been out of stock for several months so the customer is just waiting for us to get stock of the 3-in-1 the triple fan pack of the AER2s and then we can begin or we can build this guy actually this motherboard was the mobo that I wanted to offer to the guy making the DIY NAS because this has 6 SATA ports tabas yung mga na dito X370 so medyo old tech mas mura na siya because you don't really need performance parts if you're doing a NAS for those who aren't familiar with NAS it refers to network attached storage basically it's a bunch of hard drives connected to your network so it's easier to save data backup data or if you need a media server na naka save na lahat ang download dun sa isang hard drive na naka attach sa network so that other devices can access those video files you don't need to watch them on your computer I watch them on my tablet I watch them on my TV I stream them via Chromecast to another TV that's not smart so it doesn't have the built-in app so things like that some reasons why you would want a NAS makatasa na ito pa para sa NAS since kaya naman yung anym na SATA connections for the 6 hard drives yung yung yung mas mura kasi 30 370 na lang siya problema si Radin siya we updated the BIOS actually but then it wouldn't accept the again it wouldn't accept the CPU or was it the USB so there was something going on here that even after we updated the BIOS it just wouldn't work so this guy is also going back to the supplier also on reserve for a customer is the Be Quiet System Power 9 the PSU but more importantly and this is already paid for the Gigabyte 3070 this is not the vision one this is the gaming OC version the visions we have gotten in stock before but they sell out super quickly just like a lot of the 3000 series cards that we have this is also for another customer and this has been months in the making I think July pa so he got two sets of 2x8 so it becomes 4x8 he wants the he's going for the all-white look so 4x8 of Ram Vengeance Pro and this guy if you've been following our Facebook I posted about this before this was a custom order we finally got it in stock the 360 Rad of the ROG and again white edition because it's a white build and to top round out everything the triple pack LL120s for extra case fans and then the Phanteks leave the extension cables so actually the customer bought the entire rig from us already and then he had further he wanted to further personalize it and so these items have been with us for months and you know every time we would get one in he would pay for it right away tas yun nga may tiwala lang siya na no problem I can trust hardware sugar kahit bayarong kuyyan hindi nga mongawala naka-reserve talaga yan hindi nila iba benta sa iba tapos maghahabul nalang nang stock later on tapos when I ask sabihin nalang nila na ah sorry I forgot or whatever parang nabenta na so actually most of the other stuff has already been sold like before Christmas there was a mad mad rush of people asking us to build computers and buying computer parts and things like that so we're popping out rigs like crazy actually quite a quite a tiring time we do of course also use the back face for storage and here are some cases we have a bunch of MB311 ARGBs very similar to the MB511 ARGB except these guys are MATX and the MB511 is standard mid tower size also very popular still the H500 ARGB people are surprised that this is actually quite a massive case so this is a full ATX case Mashify S2 in a white and also in the back but we do have some in front are these guys I've talked about before how much I really like the look of these core P3 you know the snow and the black versions it's this open frame design which is very unique looking so we were about to run out of these guys but we were able to get restocked right before Christmas so they're cluttering around the shop so they're over here other cases recently just restocked the Phanteks Eclipse P360X there are a lot of other cases that I'd like to stock from Phanteks like the P300A that sold out some ITX cases like the N2 Evolve Shift Air that has not even reached us yet even though it was launched when was it? when did it launch? March 2020 or something like that medyong matagal na so wala pa rin sa atin Mashify S2 na black more 510 Elite Mashify C always popular choice so it's basically a smaller version of the S2 this one's in white we still do have some of those helicopter looking AHT600 of Thermaltake you can see them in the back bunch of PSUs for those who need their RGB fix we do have the TXF RGB series of course there so we have them in black and we have them in white so may Ios aside from the NCXT Kraken so may core liquid 240R tapos may Inwin actually I wish somebody would I wish somebody would use these in a build so that we can actually build with them and see if kung kamusta ba sila we do have the 240mm version of the ROG Strix you saw the 360 version inside reserved for a customer and we do have a bunch of other stuff but again I do need to do inventory this is a build that this is a build that we did and the customer will pick up the parts after Christmas Bignavi, RJ Kan we're still waiting we do not have any idea we are getting the AMD 6000 series cards like no idea at all really really weird ah you know I can chat and it gets sent to youtube but then nothing else is getting sent to youtube waiting for hardware sugar December 26 super weird man we have to fix that that is the thing with computers they're working fine one moment and then the next napapaisip ka tuloy anabang nagbago na what could have cost the change other cases we have this is more like kung not really a gamer it's more like you just want a good okay looking case with good thermals the ps15 thermal take h200tg the macub is also quite popular we have it here the macub 310 p white and ah we still actually I was quite happy that one we were able to build in the a1 plus right before Christmas the Christmas break hit so we got that we got that out ROG gifts came in a nice box like you know in the box and the logo is very distinctive we do have a couple of things for streaming like these key light airs although these are only two I know we had three it's just like super surprise now nasa na yung isa baka na benta ah and where are cf120 plus damn I got already I got a we got a sit down really and take a look at the stock what's left in the shop I thought we still had cf120 plus this but we seem to be sold out so the sickle flow we do try to stock a variety of RGB fans and you know love them or hate them a lot of people look for RGB um these are actually quite well the deep cool ones are always very value for money we usually have a lot of cf120 plus but I think they might be sold out now I don't see them the sickle flow is the cooler master version of that and it comes in black and we also have them in white so this is a much more value friendly proposition like corsair sobrang mahal ng corsair so if you're not really picky there are a lot of fanboys na oh kailangan corsair lahat and we have no problem with that we try to accommodate as much as possible we do have a bunch of fans here single pack are we all out of the triple pack? parang we're also out of the triple pack we have the lighting nodes these are also good value for money the Jupiter, the Inwin Jupiter 120 AJ120 so this is also triple pack these are also ARGB ARGB, ARGB, RGB if you want to know the difference we do have a YouTube video about that um a 200mm radiator or 200mm fan and you'd be surprised I mean some people this actually goes into the h500 um not a standard size usually the standard size is 120 and 140 but you know depending on your case you might need a 200mm fan and we do have one from cooler master ah one cool thing we did for the test bench which unfortunately I can't show is that this guy is finally on thermal pad from thermal grizzly I think it's the carbonote, is it the carbonote? basically it's just like wala ng thermal grease or wala ng thermal paste um it's like the sin pad and that's the one that conducts the heat from the CPU to the cooler so you don't need to put thermal paste anymore why that's why did we do that for the test bench is because we're always taking out the CPU of this guy um para mag update the bios to the customer para mag try out ng ibang CPU so we know that this thing is working so isasalpak namin yung CPU dito to see if that one is working and so every time you have to remove the CPU additional na naman yan maglalagay ka ng thermal paste with the thermal pad it you know you can keep reusing that forever basically or for a very very long time you don't need to replace it it cuts down on time so you don't need to replace it just remove the CPU put the pad put the new CPU and then you're good to go and advice versa when you remove it no residue just take the pad actually just leave the pad and then just swap out CPUs as needed uh what else we have the lian li o11 dynamic we do not it was but it we used to have it but it's sold out now we do want to restock pero di pao sure kung kilang dada ting yung bagong restock ah yes mickey from facebook ask panin yung cooler master nr200 a lot of people have been asking about that case and I've also been bugging our supplier nasa nabay yung nr200 nasa nabay nr200 bibili ako short answer yes we do want to stock the nr200 long answer we are still waiting for it we're still waiting for our supplier to get it because sobrang in demand nr200 I don't know what's taking them so long pero baka low priority I've noticed before that for some parts the Philippines is a low priority market kasi volumize mas maraming buhay bilay in other countries our market is also very budget oriented so high end stuff but why will we send them to the Philippines where it will sell quicker in Europe or in the states or even in Japan so yes dada say we are a low priority market so baka na I do not know why the nr200 is taking so long to get here pero baka kasi yun nga pinapadala sa iba kasi sigurado naman si Cooler Master na mababenta doon but we are trying to get them because a lot of people have been requesting for them actually I do know some other local shops have them available pero gray market yun that's not from the local distributors here the official distributors if you want to grow gray market that's completely up to you that's fine just ask about the warranty how that shop deals with that kasi yun yun major consideration sa warranty you can even order buy a new egg or amazon kasi padala dito sa atin pero yun nga warranty is a big issue you also don't know about customs if you do that directly kung bumili ka directly from amazon or a new egg at least kung may shop dito that carries gray market items sila dapat sa sagot sa warranty na yun but you need to ask them pa minsan sobrang isilang ng warranty period so you'd have to ask them about that follow from facebook and it's only facebook because youtube seems to be down is it tough to find suppliers for arctic brands I wonder why wala nga local shops nags-stock I'm not sure who the local distributor is to be honest again that's kind of thing na maraming nang tatanong kami na may arctic items ba kayo and because a lot of people ask about them I've been trying to find the local supplier but I haven't been able to none of our usual suppliers carry them so I don't know hardware sugar is only a small shop so we don't deal actually we do deal with I think all of the major suppliers pero baka nga may may bang suppliers na that we don't have contact yet with and then it's the building guy so we do want to stock arctic also cryo rig actually that's another brand na parang okay na may performance paraming nang tatanong but I can't find a local supplier for it and another question also from paulo candy is only obtainable by purchasing through the hardware sugar website no however you buy from us whether directly through our site or through lazada or shoppy or in store all of those are eligible for candy points you just need to register the purchases and that's also done through the candy portal so any as long as you buy from us regardless kong pano may candy points yun sgp upgrade for the r5 300 400 g 1660 1660 super um those are usually the things that we recommend uh for that so I've done 50 minutes and thanks for sticking around guys kasi ano kut naman na wala yung youtube audience parang nakalahati yung viewers natin but thank you for sticking around and sending your questions para may kontin interaction naman ako on this last stream of no this isn't our last stream for 2020 but it's the last in the shop for 2020 um kwento lang ako about the warranty claim so we've had a lot of people saying na yung problema nila dill buy a rig and then you know like a week later big lang ayano magboot up and we've had like two or three of that and mostly the problems are because of ram um for some reason na tatanggal yung ram although di ko rin may inti din kalikot nyan may book may you know sa either it was a customer or somebody else they went inside they did you know they removed the ram or something and then they didn't put it back in property ganoon na ganoon yung isang experience namin na um it was a customer then came all the way atta from kavita or something when he got here the ram was just loose and imposible na matatanggal yung ram kung walang nag kalikot because the you know once they're firmly anything now once they're firmly inside they have these two clips on each end of the on each end of the ram slot so hindi lang basabasa na tatanggal yung my fingers in the way so there's the clip and then there's another clip here hindi lang basabasa na tatanggal yung ram clips nyan so we had two or three people come up with that problem we just needed to insert the ram properly and then it was good to go another one there was a CMOS issue one of the things parang go to move yung nag hard yun yung mga go to moves sa mga nag detect support if it's not working try a CMOS update or reset the CMOS battery to be honest actually this never works for me it's always another problem but there are some texts to swear by na kawag may problema ano yung palitan yung CMOS battery or just update or just reset the CMOS actually i don't like doing it kasi it's dependent sa mo mo parang it's hard to get to the CMOS battery but there's a lot of marami nagsusabi na if there's something weird going on with your pc try the CMOS fortunately i can't try the CMOS dun sa youtube because wala kung access dun sa server nila but people are saying na nga ano naman waiting for hardware sugar there is a video but youtube doesn't seem to be getting the data i'm gonna try marvin from facebook and he is our one of our tech experts that pwede magtanong ask no youtube i don't know marvin for some reason ayaw mag stream sa youtube i went to the settings pero i tried restarting it i went to the settings i said it to the backup youtube server ayaw talaga but the other youtube guys are saying parang nga buffer lang siya sa youtube di nila nakikita yung video so i don't know it's one of those things malamang i'll just download it from facebook and then upload it to youtube um sana may magtanongan ako di ba sana i wish i could ask somebody i'm not uploading properly to youtube um so that's another yun so those were some of the warranty issues it's weird like in the span of 2 weeks andaming bumalik na customer na walaong signal lumalabas when i turn on my computer like there's no output to the display but when we check it it's just na loose for some reason the ram is just not properly plugged in and once we plugged in the ram everything was good to go we did have one where it was the power supply the sub power supply was defective so we we replaced the power supply and everything was working again um what other warranty issues did we have for the end of the year i think that's those are the ones that come to mind and ayawan so again we do have a bunch of new stock which i will upload by tonight i'll be uploading them tonight so by tomorrow morning the site should have everything that we have again just like how it usually does super easy to order lahat yun nga ka integrate na yun so website mark louis as pa shout out thanks for watching thanks for joining us on this December 26 um sorry one last the the sickle flows the nice thing about the sickle flows is that they also come with their own splitter so you don't need to worry about anymore like pa niyong power supply na lang tatlo and we also have from cooler master one to three a rgb splitter sorry this is a better view so we've talked about before na medyo nakakalito talaga yung rgb like where do you plug it in how do you power it because those two things are separate how do you control it where do you plug it into control versus yung how do you power the actual fans you know the spinning things that move air so we have we always have to think about it a lot but like the sickle flow comes with everything that you need and if done this one the nice thing about this one is that plug in a lot of fans and this one will go straight to the rgb on the motherboard so in a way their daisy chain but um their daisy chain through this one cable rather than having to figure out how to some fans don't allow daisy chaining like fan to fan to fan this one you can just take all three fans here and then it goes straight the top part here goes straight to whichever mobo you have um so that's about it for the show so we do have much of new stock again eios again thank you asrock thank you asrock thank you rog thank you asus for the mobos thank you ndxt for the fans asus for the monitor I do have other stuff from asus that I playing around with at home so that's a monitor the tough 3080 and the wi-fi routers so excited to try those out get home and try those out i don't know what game to play with the 3080 cyberpunk would be the obvious choice pero eo ko inisi ko pa kung red dead redemption 2 or some other thing maybe doom doom eternal i don't know how how the ead guys optimize their code so well na parang kaya nung graphics cards kahit magandang graphics so I might end up buying cyberpunk but there are so many sales now like there's so many games I want to try na naka sale na hindi naman sa AAA but like there's a game on the switch that I want to try so crisis ya fans would be the well parang di ba cyberpunk is a new crisis now so will it run crisis will it run cyberpunk so I don't know I need a game that will stress out the 3080 and I'm still thinking about it wala ask kamusta yung shop after the earthquakes wala solid wala problema you notice all of the our custom made shelves there are all still firmly bolted in there when I came in today no discernible items tipped over no damage to anything this shelf which I bought from True value kasi discounted di naman na tumba even these look a little precarious di naman na tumba so all good that was a strong earthquake I think was that on the 24th the morning of the 24th but ya that was really strong earthquake pero wala namang damage sa shop again because I'm very absent minded lately I forgot my tripod I'm using triple h510 elite tripod and then my main camera up there so I'm going to sign off now guys I'm going to do some inventory here at the shop and I'm going to go home and monkey around with the ASO stuff 3080 pero yun nga ah yes actually because Hans mentioned it on Facebook I want to I want to do a video where it's the rts 3080 so parang 2013 CPU plus 2020 GPU ok ba yun like can you get away with just upgrading the GPU then I'm going to look on YouTube like they do have settings na oh ito yung optimal settings for rts 3080 then I want to see like I'll try to copy those settings pero siyempre mahi na CPU ko compared to the CPU that they used so at least may basis of comparison my old rig with a 3080 versus yung state of the art rigs na ginamit nung mga YouTubers na yun so we'll compare frame rates and things like that so we do have other shows this December before we close out the year we have in the industry where we interviewed the guys from ready player one which is a local hardware manufacturer of chairs so gaming chairs and actually they do that their chairs look very premium so we'll be interviewing them on December 30 and then the last show of the year it will be me again and we're calling it media diet basically I'm just going to talk about like all of the stuff I read, watched and played this 2020 so parang personal review ko lang like shit gata-libro na ito I was blown away for those of you all 17 of you who are watching on Facebook if you don't know I'm a super big reader my course in college was literature so I super enjoy reading and so I'm going to talk about this book blew me away or this book was disappointing the movies that I watched the games that I played so that might be a regular show next year like once a month I'll just talk about damn this game blew me away it was only like 500 pesos parang ganyan as I get older kapag tumatanda na ako parang napapansin ko di karamang talaga hinahanap yun as a gamer I've always been as a gamer I've always also been big on story on the narrative so maybe that hasn't really changed but games are so good now that you don't need a triple A graphics to tell a compelling story so I want to highlight more of those kinds of games in 2021 maybe December 31 or December 29 and then we'll go from there we'll adjust as we go along so ayon thanks for joining me this was a facebook exclusive live stream but it will get uploaded to youtube later actually I just want to say well no need to get all senties since may live stream paraman ako yun nga yun media media diet but this is the last from the shop for 2020 looking for and actually daming daming nangyari I don't need to tell you but just very consequential also for the shop because so many people needed to work from home ang daming bumilin ng computer ang daming na reach out this was the year also channel from 1000 subscribers in March or April we're closing out the year with 43,000 sub so that's crazy hi but none of them are watching now because youtube for some reason is effing up so and because of that added exposure on youtube we've also gotten lots and lots of new customers so been a big year for the shop bit tiring to be honest like I just want to go home and play but there's always like things to do inventory replying to customers on facebook and youtube videos to do and things like that there's always so much stuff to do but it's these four days December 24 to 27 have been really nice much needed dress for everybody not just for myself but all of our staff here at the shop I hope you guys had a very merry Christmas I hope you're enjoying the holidays please tune in for our last two shows in the industry December 30 and media diet may be December 29 peace guys


The challenge of the Yukon on Kasky! The Wunderdog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston as he meets the challenge of the Yukon. Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of northwest-mounted police who preserved law and order in the new northwest country where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his Wunderdog King met that challenge and justice ruled triumphant. In a small two-room building, crowded between two saloons on the main street of Dawson Sea, two men listened uneasily as howls of pain came from behind the door but led to the back room. His sign outside says that he's a painless dentist. He sure don't sound like it. There ain't none of him painless that I've ever been to. We're lucky to have any kind of dentist's way up here in the north country. This, uh, Coachella's just come here, didn't he? Yeah, come from the stage, I think. Don't know why he picked this place when he could have made a good living where it's warm and comfortable. Well, I suppose he got the gold fever like all the rest of us. He'll be prospecting on the side, I imagine. Yeah, Charlie, I guess you're right. That howlin' even makes your dog nervous. I guess he must have pulled the tooth that time. I'm glad you were the next one to go in, Charlie. Instead of me going to get a tooth pulled. No, that's a good thing. If you howl like that, your dog will probably go right through the door after a butch and eat him alive. Yeah. Who couldn't let anyone hurt me? Put your old boy. There's only one other dog that's as crazy about his master as Duke here. That Sergeant Preston's, you know, the Lonnie. Yeah, that dog King. He's the Sergeant's shadow just the way Duke is yours. How long have you had Duke anyway? Well, Pete, I've had him since he was a little pup. Six years. I wouldn't give Duke up for anything in the world. He's my best friend, aren't you, fella? I should think you'd be afraid he'd bite the dentist. He should have left him home. Oh, I take Duke everywhere. This time I had to bring him. You see, he's the patient, not me. What? You work on that dog? Yeah. Seb Hayley told me this dentist put a nice gold crown on one of his teeth, and it's as good as new. He can eat anything with it. If he can do it for a man, he ought to be able to do it for a dog. You mean your dog's going to have a gold tooth? What? Wait until the boy's here about this. I don't see anything funny about it. Duke is just as important to me as any human. Wash your mouth out the soft water once in a while. You'll be as good as new in a couple of hours. Thanks, Doc. Well, now, who's next? We are. Come on, Duke. You'd better leave that dog out here while I take care of him. Oh, no, Doc. He's the one I want you to treat.  No, no. Duke broke off one of his big fangs. He can't eat right a fight without it. I have no dog, Doctor.  Well, he's level to take my hand off. Not while I'm holding him, he won't. Duke will do what I tell him. You won't have to worry. Nope. Get him out of here. I don't bother. Of course, I'll be willing to pay almost any price you want him. Any price? I mean, lots more than you'd get for man's tooth. I pay cash, too. See, I'm leaving Dawson in a week or so as soon as the next boat leaves. I just own a darn good gold claim. Well, bring him in here. I'll have a look at him and see what I can do. Well, come on, Duke. That ain't the dirtiest thing you ever heard of. Oh, hello, Richie. Hi there, Pete. New Dennis here? He's busy right now. I guess I better go back next time. No hurry, and if he has to see you next...  I ain't any rush. You won't have to wait long. Eh, you know what he's doing? What? You know old Charlie Hudson? Yeah? He's bringing his dog in here to get a gold tooth for him. I bet you never heard of anything like that in Seattle where you come from. No good dog. What? You mean Charlie? It goes for either of them. That dog jumped me the other night and I kicked him in the teeth. So you're the one who broke his tooth? Sorry, I didn't bash his head in. Bring him in the bar. I'll get some heavy gloves. You bring some strong clod. Can't miss or something. Here, dog. Hey, quick! Can I go back? Duke, stop it! Stop it, I say!  It's better to get him back or I'll kick the rest of his teeth in. Back! Back! Back! I don't blame the old fella, but you best not bite him. Dirty curry ought to be shot. This dog had a perfect right to jump you the other night. You tried to hit me with a bottle. Yeah, and I'll do it again next time you say you saw me cheating at cards. I'll say it the next time I see you cheating you tin-horn gambler. Why, you won't? Get that karate here before I put a bullet in him.  Come on, Duke. I'm sorry about that.  I'll wait. Oh, that. Come in. I'm Richie Davis, Doc. Maybe you heard of me. I used to run the Golden Slipper in Seattle. In Seattle? Yeah. Seattle. Ever been there? No. Come in. Hey, Barney, set him up again for everybody. Coming up. We can't let you go away tomorrow, Charlie, without a night to remember. Can we, boys? I'll say we can. Sure miss it, Charlie. Yeah, I'll miss everybody up here in Dawson. Duke and me is getting too old for prospecting. It's time we retire. Hey, uh, wonder how your dog is gonna like living in Clifoni. Well, Duke will be happy anywhere as long as he's with me. Hey, Sergeant Preston. Hello there, Sergeant. Hello, boys. Hey, hey, Sergeant. Come on over and sit with us. We're throwing a good bye party for Charlie. Well, thanks, boys. I, uh, better sit on this side. King and Duke don't fight. Let's keep them apart. Don't, King. Stay there, fella. We're sure gonna miss Charlie and Duke around here. Oh, uh, you're leaving in the morning, Charlie? Come on up, Sergeant. I'm taking the boat in the morning. He's got Duke all set for the trip. He even got his teeth fixed. He just can't get over that. Have you seen his dog's new tooth, Sergeant? No, but I heard about it. Well, here, I'll show you. Here, Duke. King just ain't in Duke's class anymore. Duke's the only dog in the Yukon with the gold tooth. Open your mouth, Duke. I'll pull it back, Sergeant. There. Well, that's a good job. You shouldn't be too strong. Not as strong as a real tooth, but he can use it in its shop, too. You're sure getting him all ready for the stage. People think there's gold away. Stop here, putting it in the dog's mouth like that. Here's your drinks. Well, this better be the last round for me, boys. I still got some things to do. I got to turn in early. That boat leaves at the crack of dawn. Sergeant Preston. Sergeant Preston. Quiet, King. What is it, Pete? Richie Davis was murdered last night. Richie Davis? Who's he? You know, the gambler from Seattle? He ain't been here very long.  Oh, yes. I remember him. Where is he? They found him in his cabin. The whole place is upset. He was clubbed with something. I'll go right with you. It didn't touch the body or disturb anything, did they? No. Nobody touched a thing. I made everyone get out of place until you saw him. Good for you, Pete. All right, let's go. You see how this cabin looks? Everything's upset. He was killed last night, all right. Been dead a long time. Pete, look here. Look at his boot. There's something shiny sticking in it. What is it? I'll get it out. Look. It's gold. It's the shape of a dog's tooth. There are other teeth marks on the boot. Sergeant, do you think Charlie could have done this? I can't believe that, Pete. The boat left early this morning. Charlie's gone. Yes, I know him. Charlie hated Richie. I heard him say if Richie ever touched Duke again, he'd kill him. This place looks as if someone's ransacked it. Someone took everything out of this tin box. Richie must have kept money or papers in here. Maybe Charlie thought he'd make it look like robbery. He didn't know Duke was going to leave his gold tooth on Richie's boot. Did Richie have much money? He gambled a lot, but he kept it in the bank. I met him in there a couple of times. It still doesn't make sense. Why would Charlie come here to his cabin and murder him? Charlie left the party early last night. Maybe he met Richie on the way home, and Duke took a nip at him. Charlie loved that dog that murders him. He did threaten Richie though. I heard him right in the dentist's office. It happened that day Charlie came in to get Duke's tooth made. Help me put Richie's body up on that cot, please. Now what are you going to do, Sergeant? Well, first I want to go to the bank. And you say Richie made a large deposit here last week. Yes, he did, Sergeant. $2,000. Of course, he was a pretty heavy gambler. He was always drawing his money out of the bank and putting big amounts in. Yes, we really can't tell much from that. Did you know anything about him at all? Nope. Oh, say. He did leave an envelope here for me to keep in a safe. I almost forgot. Wait, I'll get it for you. I hope I find you here, Sergeant. Did you check all the gambling places, Pete? Yep. Richie has had a streak of hard luck. As far as I can find out, he's lost money regularly. Well, he made a large deposit here in the bank last week. Of course, he could have won that money in a private poker game. Oh, here's that envelope, Sergeant. Oh, thanks. Did you telegraph the bounties and sell, Kirk, Sergeant? Yes, Pete. I gave them full instructions. Well, this is interesting. What is it, Sergeant? I don't want to bother you yet, Pete. King and I have to pay someone a little visit first. You'd better stay here. I'd rather do this alone. You got a toothache, too? I, uh, didn't come to see you about my teeth, Doc. And maybe I should tell you, my dog has all of his, too. Your dog? You're quite clever at making dogs fang. Oh, you mean the one I made for Charlie? He'll the whole town lose about that. That was quite a clever scheme, Dr. Carson. Not you. My name's not Carson. Oh, yes, it is, and you're also wanted here for murder. The murder of Richie Davis. You're crazy. You can't prove it. You thought you got all of Richie's papers when you killed him. But you didn't. He left this envelope in the back safe here. Let me show you. Newspaper. Dr. Carson, dentist, wanted for murder. There's even a picture of you. You can't prove a thing. Richie was blackmailing you. So you decided to get rid of him and pin the murder on Charlie. You know there'd be weeks before we could get to him on that boat and find that Duke, his dog, still had his go fang. Then you could have been quite far away. I don't know what you're talking about. You made a gold fang just like Duke's and stuck it in Richie's boot so there'd be no doubt about who murdered him. You're under arrest. Don't move, you don't bother. No, my arm. Get away, help me. You shouldn't have hurt that person. All right, boy. I warned you, King has all of his teeth. You should have been more careful. Get up, I'm taking you to headquarters. Watch him, King.

Okay, we're back. This is Dave Vellante. We're live in New York City at the Stratoconf plus Hadoop World. This is Dave Vellante of Wikibon.org and I'm here with Jeff Kelly who's the big data analyst at Wikibon. He's been called the number one big data analyst in the industry and we're going to focus the discussion here on some of the practical applications. How customers are actually applying technology to get a business capability and create business value. I'm here with Venky Rangashari who is the global head of development at Thompson Reuters. Welcome Venky. In your card it says you're head of QED velocity analytics. Everybody's talking about speed, real time, velocity. So before we get into that, tell us a little bit about Thompson Reuters. I mean everybody knows the company but set it up and then your role there. Sure. We work with the financial and risk business unit at Thompson Reuters. We get data from 400 stock exchanges, currency markets, commodity markets. We aggregate, consolidate those data and provide it as a data feed to our customers but also provide analytics on top of that. So Thompson Reuters has been the business for a long, long time for the last few hundred years and the financial and risk business unit which I'm a part of focuses on real time market data for financial services companies. Okay and can you talk a little bit more about your role and your team. Yeah I'm part of the content technology organization. I head up the analytics business so it's a software as a service offering for analytics on demand. So customers such as, you know, some banks, brokerage houses, hedge funds, when they look to do their pre-trade, post-trade analysis and their investment strategies, they use our solution to get to the financial analytics. So look at analytics as a set of statistical functions that a trader would use to determine their financial investment strategy. So at the base we have a large content database that ingests the data real time from the stock market and then we put our analytics solutions on top of it. So let's talk about Hadoop. We're here at Hadoop World. This is the third year the Cube has been here. I think it's four years of Hadoop World. It's growing. You're based here, right? Yeah. I'm based in Silicon Valley. You're in West Coast. Okay. Thompson Reuters is headquartered here. Of course, right. So we had Mike Olson on before. He said the first Hadoop World was 500 people and then 800, which was the first year we came and then last year was 14 or 1500 and now it's closer to 3,000. So it's really starting to grow. But you guys were early on into the Hadoop space. Talk about that.  So you know, I'll take you through what we used originally, right? I mean, when in the context of financial data, the type of data we refer to is called time series data, right? This is time delimited data, look at it as stockports, purchases, you know, any information which is called ticker data, right? And relational databases didn't solve the problem for this kind of a problem. You know, you look at the rates of data that we get, we typically get data that peaks at about two to three million messages per second. It's also called ticks per second. So at that data rate, relational databases don't scale. So 13 years back, we built a proprietary database, one of the companies that Thomson Rogers acquired in the West Coast, and this company built its own proprietary database, stored the database in a very flat file type of format, very optimized from an ingestion and query perspective. So that's kind of the background.  And, you know, at that time, we didn't have as much of options around there. And slowly over the last couple of years, we've been looking at Hadoop, we've been looking at Cassandra and the other NoSQL and big data players in there. And we did a couple of experiments and were kind of pleasantly surprised about the results that we got in the space. Okay, so essentially what you're doing is you use Hadoop for batch, you use Cassandra for real time now. We use Cassandra for real time and we use Hadoop for all our historical data. So you look at, you can segment data into two pieces, right? You have near real-time data, which is, you know, zero to six months of data, right? And then you have historical data, which is six months to 12 years of data. So we use Cassandra for a lot of the real-time applications in there. And then you also have historical data that people don't queries across multiple years. We use Hadoop for doing that. Interesting. Yeah, could you add a little color to that? May I use some examples? So what are some of the real-time applications on Cassandra you're doing? And then maybe we can tie that to the more batch type of analytics, deep historical analytics, and how they complement one another. So one of the prime reasons why we chose Cassandra was its ingestion capability, right? You know, when you get data at real-time, you got to take it or you lose it, right? So you get data at two or three million messages per second. You got the first piece of the puzzle is to ingest the data and put it in a database, right? And when we tested Cassandra against other NoSQL and even Hadoop, Cassandra had a unique capability of being very optimized for insertions. And so when we tested some of our ingestion rates, we were able to get some of the loads and hundreds of thousands of inserts per second using even a 9 to 10 node Cassandra cluster, right? So that was pretty, that was almost twice our current capacity. So that was part of the reason why we chose Cassandra. The other part is how we can efficiently provide some of the analytics on top of that. So the data is distributed into multiple nodes.  We provide that using Cassandra, right? If somebody says, I want it over the last two years, then we got to take some data from Cassandra and some data from Hadoop and stitch it into one query, right? Most of the data comes within the last six months, right? And keep in mind, the way we do data strategy is the intraday data is in the memory. So, you know, in terms of size of data, an intraday data from a New York Stock Exchange perspective is about 400 gigs. So we hold the data in the memory and you batch rights into Cassandra. So the eventual consistency that Cassandra offers is ideal for a use case, right? We serve a lot of data from out of the cash, right? So can you compare, see, you talked about before you had your own database. You actually acquired a company that provided that for you. So that gave you some competitive advantage. But it was hard to sustain that because you had to do all the R&D, all the support, all the training. How has life changed with this sort of Hadoop, open source, how have you accommodated the ecosystem to sort of replicate that competitive advantage, you know, today?  We don't have to, we're able to scale out the infrastructure. In our old iteration, the only way we could scale is go vertically, right? We used to buy more CPUs, more memory, bigger machines and bigger boxes, right? Chasing chips. So a lot of solid state memories and doing the work, right? With Cassandra, we're able to scale. So in that way, you know, horizontal scalability was a critical component. And, you know, going with Cassandra, I think we solved that problem. The second piece is also the fact that we had large amount of this historical data lying in tapes and flat files and file systems, right? We are a data company and we always want to monetize this by, you know, giving the right data and analytics to our customers. We couldn't do this before. I mean, today with Hadoop, we can put it into Hadoop and somebody says, I want 10 symbols of last four years of data. I want a volumated average and, you know, these criteria. I could call the data and provide that as a package to the customer, you know? So, I mean, try searching for that in two to three petabytes of data of flat files, right? You know, it would be days to do that, right? So I think that's an interesting challenge that we are able to take advantage of some of the big data technology and solve that piece of that. I want to switch gears just a little bit and talk about some of the applications that you're building on top of Cassandra. Because, you know, we're hearing a lot at this conference about big data applications, finally, I'd say. Because we've been, you know, at Wikibon, we've been doing a lot of research around this and just hasn't been a lot of activity. And ultimately, it's those applications that kind of bring the data to life and help the end user actually take action, gain insights and take action. So how do you go about the actual application development process? You get it, you know, it sounds like you get requirements, specific requirements from your clients. That certainly requires you to respond quickly, very agile and develop applications that sit on top of Cassandra. So take us through how you go about doing that. Yeah, I mean, what we provide is a application platform. A lot of the financial services customers are moving towards R as a analytics, you know, programming paradigm for, you know, for the analytics, right? And so we use R as a platform and the quantum analyst within a bank basically do their strategies and their functions in R which then takes the data from Cassandra or Hadoop and serves it out. Keep in mind that a lot of the statistical formulas and strategies are intellectual property for a bank because that's their algorithms that they build out of. We don't get that we are able to have a proprietary space in a customer-owned area and we have a bucket of generic analytic functions that we provide on top of that. Now how do you use data stacks? We use data stacks as the underlying tick database. Okay, so it's not the native Apache, it's essentially data stacks, enterprise editions. Data stacks enterprise with a combination of solar and Hadoop. Okay, so you use solar for search? You use solar for search. Hadoop for the historical data, Cassandra for the last six months. Yes. And, you know, data stacks ability to provide the monitoring and provisioning aspect of it helps in ease of operations, right? You know, you need a new node, you need a new Cassandra node, data stacks as a UI-driven tool that can help create a new node, you know, rebalance nodes, provide monitoring across all the processes there.  Sure. Okay. Helps us sleep better. Right. Good. So what do you make of the conference this year? The conference? You know, I mean, exciting to see a lot of new players, a lot of new entrants in the application space and the visualization space, we've been having some new interesting entries there, so, you know, great to see a good amount of excitement around the big data space. Is that your main sort of interest area, is visualization, trying to get more users being able to see the data? Is that a challenge of yours? Yeah, I mean, that is a challenge for us, and, you know, it's like early days, right, in terms of visualization tools, so we're looking for some neat visualization tools to build on top for our analytic solution there, so that is a key challenge for us. Excellent. All right, thank you. Well, thanks very much for coming on theCUBE, sharing your practitioner knowledge and good luck going forward and really appreciate your time. Thank you. All right, keep it right there. We'll be right back. This is what happened yesterday. It's a crazy lineup here, so keep it right there. This is theCUBE, SiliconANGLE.tv's continuous coverage of Strata and Hadoop World, and we're live. We'll be right back.
