Buy This Man’s PC or He’ll Crush Me

[00:00] The best thing about building a DIY PC

[00:02] is that you can spec it any way you want

[00:04] to get the most for your dollar. Then,

[00:07] when you're done, you can fine-tune that

[00:09] thing to your heart's content to squeeze

[00:11] even more out of it. The bad news is

[00:14] that configuring and optimizing a system

[00:16] can be tough when there is so much wrong

[00:20] information out there on the internet.

[00:22] Now, you can avoid some of that by just

[00:24] buying a pre-built PC. Any Tom, Dick, or

[00:26] Michael Dell can do that for you, but

[00:28] that's not going to help you with the

[00:30] tuning, will it?

[00:31] Well, that is where Splave comes in.

[00:34] He's

[00:35] really big. And he's also one of the

[00:38] most legendary overclockers of all time.

[00:40] He's number one on the global masters

[00:41] list on Hardware Bot, has held over 800

[00:43] overclocking world records, and just a

[00:46] few years ago he launched Splave PC, a

[00:48] system integrator that uses his

[00:50] expertise to make the fastest gaming

[00:52] hardware even [music] faster. And today,

[00:55] they're announcing something next-level.

[00:57] It's a microfiber cloth in front of my

[01:00] damn unveiling. One second.

[01:02] It's

[01:03] the Splave Pro. This thing comes with

[01:07] hand-selected CPUs and GPUs for maximum

[01:10] performance, custom thermal paste for

[01:13] enhanced cooling, and super fast RAM.

[01:16] Then, every aspect of the machine is

[01:18] tightly tuned. The result? Yes. That is

[01:22] CS: GO running at over 900 frames per

[01:26] second.

[01:27] Crazy. We're going to take you guys

[01:29] through this system, show you what sets

[01:31] it apart, and because Splave is so

[01:33] generous with his knowledge, we're going

[01:34] to show you how you can make similar

[01:36] optimizations on your own hardware at

[01:39] home. For example, watch this. By

[01:40] changing this simple setting, you can

[01:42] get about [music] going quite a good

[01:43] deal to one of the

[01:49] >> Hey, you're that man. Can I have a

[01:51] picture?

[01:52] >> Of course.

[01:54] >> I I to ask, how did you get all those

[01:56] business apps onto one easy to use

[01:57] platform?

[01:58] >> So, you want to know Odoo's secret

[02:00] sauce.

[02:13] >> Right out of the gate, obviously, the

[02:15] system is gorgeous. You're using the Air

[02:18] 5400, which has this really unique

[02:20] approach to airflow with kind of ducting

[02:23] that really gets your fresh air exactly

[02:25] where it needs to go, and then keeps the

[02:27] hot air from being recycled. Like this

[02:28] front radiator is freaking awesome. It

[02:31] just

[02:32] throws all the heat out the right side,

[02:34] rather than crapping it out over the

[02:35] rest of the system. But,

[02:38] the Air 5400 is a Corsair product, and

[02:40] for that matter, so are a lot of the

[02:42] things in here. What sets this system

[02:45] apart?

[02:45] >> Basically, the tune.

[02:47] And we take all of the best parts from

[02:50] all the different companies and jam them

[02:52] all together,

[02:53] and then make it better with our tuning.

[02:55] >> Right. So, with this specific build,

[02:57] there was a particular inspiration for

[02:59] it, right? Like there was one person who

[03:01] needed it.

[03:01] >> Yeah, we had a pro gamer ask us,

[03:05] he only cares about gaming. I want my

[03:06] fans at 100% all the time.

[03:08] >> Yeah, I noticed that.

[03:09] >> And I'm like, who else is going to want

[03:11] that?

[03:12] >> Yeah.

[03:12] >> Maybe another pro gamer.

[03:14] Not me, but

[03:15] >> Right.

[03:16] >> But, um I'm not making every computer

[03:18] for myself. So, we're all about the

[03:21] customer service, and we can tune it to

[03:23] whatever anyone wants.

[03:24] >> Right. So, you guys built this one, and

[03:26] then basically, from my understanding,

[03:28] you pretty much had a line up out the

[03:29] door of people saying, "Oh, no, I want I

[03:30] want that one just like that guy has."

[03:32] >> Correct.

[03:32] >> So, you kind of went,

[03:34] >> All right, hope we can sell it that way

[03:35] then.

[03:36] >> In matters of taste, the customer is

[03:37] always right, right? Tell us then about

[03:39] your part selection. What makes

[03:41] everything in here the absolute best?

[03:43] Like there's one that I got to kind of

[03:45] challenge you on, right? You've got a

[03:46] 9950X 3D in here.

[03:48] >> Right.

[03:49] >> No X3D II, no 9800. What made that the

[03:52] right choice?

[03:53] >> It's a gaming PC, that the right choice?

[03:56] >> have it be a daily PC. So our our Pro

[03:58] Gamers don't need to buy two computers.

[04:00] It's bad marketing for myself but the

[04:02] 9950x3d we found to be better binned

[04:06] also on the core zeros.

[04:08] We use the game mode to shut the other

[04:11] CCD off and we're we've been finding

[04:13] that the overclocking has been better on

[04:15] those than say a 9850x3d.

[04:17] >> If that sounded like double D good what

[04:19] Allen is saying was that while [music]

[04:21] there are processors out there that

[04:23] might be you know more marketed towards

[04:26] Gamers or might even be faster out of

[04:30] the box the 9950x3d

[04:32] in particular has the best balance of

[04:35] out of the box experience and also the

[04:37] ability to tweak it even higher. We

[04:40] don't care so much that the other eight

[04:42] cores do not have AMD's 3D V-Cache

[04:45] because when we're gaming we're going to

[04:47] turn them off. And for the cores that do

[04:49] have AMD's [music] 3D V-Cache they find

[04:51] that that chip tends to get the very

[04:54] best ones. As for the rest of this

[04:56] hardware it's mostly pretty obvious. I

[04:57] mean who wouldn't take an ROG 59 di

[05:01] astral if they could get their hands on

[05:02] it.

[05:03] >> [music]

[05:03] >> But there are some that I do still have

[05:05] more questions about. I mean back in the

[05:07] day when the Northbridge the memory

[05:09] controller used to be built into the

[05:10] motherboard you would see like a 5%

[05:13] performance swing from one board to the

[05:14] next. Nowadays now that it's pretty much

[05:17] all built into the CPU how do you choose

[05:19] a motherboard for like a

[05:21] to the nines tuned machine? [music]

[05:24] >> For me it's easy because the ROG

[05:26] motherboards

[05:27] are all just so biased towards

[05:30] overclocking and the extreme

[05:31] overclocking scene and I use the same

[05:34] ones on LN2 so I'm super comfortable

[05:37] with with air cooling because LN2 is

[05:40] easy then.

[05:41] >> You're saying that you're not large

[05:42] enough there's actually two of you.

[05:43] There's Allen two.

[05:44] >> Yes.

[05:45] >> [laughter]

[05:46] >> That's not what you said. He was

[05:47] referring to liquid nitrogen. I know

[05:48] that. I just thought it was funny.

[05:50] Like, can you imagine two of two of this

[05:52] machine?

[05:53] >> With that said, I do know that in the

[05:55] past, ASUS and the other big guys have

[05:58] marketed different boards for extreme

[06:01] overclocking versus like daily driver

[06:04] overclocking. In your experience, is

[06:06] [music] there anything that prevents an

[06:07] XOC board from just being used with an

[06:10] AIO liquid cooler like this? [music]

[06:11] >> On LN2, I would maybe prefer an Apex for

[06:14] the two DIMM slots only. The four on the

[06:16] Hero gives us the option to expand if

[06:19] someone needs more for for their tasks.

[06:22] >> But, what's the downside of having four?

[06:24] Do you want to explain that?

[06:25] >> Having four DIMM slots can be a

[06:27] disadvantage because there can be some

[06:29] reflection between the the channels. And

[06:32] also, the traces are physically longer

[06:36] just for path from CPU to the back of

[06:39] the motherboard.

[06:40] >> Right, okay. So, the shorter we can keep

[06:42] those and the fewer things we can have

[06:45] on each trace.

[06:46] >> Yeah.

[06:47] >> On the subject of memory, it's pretty

[06:48] expensive right now. Has that been a

[06:50] major impediment? Like, have you have

[06:52] you had to to cheap out on memory?

[06:54] >> For now, we're just raising prices like

[06:55] everyone else. Unfortunately, I don't

[06:58] really want to go the route of putting

[06:59] something worse in there or whatever I

[07:02] can find.

[07:03] >> I mean, given your branding is uh

[07:06] >> the last thing you'd want to do is

[07:07] compromise on maximum performance.

[07:10] >> That's it.

[07:11] >> Fair enough. So, what are you using?

[07:12] >> We're using 2 by 32 GB in the system for

[07:15] 64. But, we are going to give the option

[07:17] to cut it back to 32, 16 by 2, if

[07:20] someone is more price conscious.

[07:22] >> That makes sense. And 6,000 is still the

[07:25] sweet spot just with as tight latencies

[07:27] as you can get.

[07:28] >> Yeah, correct.

[07:28] >> I mean, you're not going to be running

[07:30] at the factory speeds anyway, though,

[07:31] right?

[07:31] >> No.

[07:32] Of course not.

[07:33] >> [laughter]

[07:34] >> What kind of challenges does that create

[07:36] for support? Because, unless I'm

[07:37] disclosing something I'm not, not all of

[07:40] your customers are gamers or even

[07:42] end-users. You even work with some

[07:44] government entities.

[07:45] >> Correct.

[07:46] >> So, like how do you provide a warranty

[07:47] on, "Hey, by the way, I

[07:49] cranked this up to 12."?

[07:51] >> Warranty-wise, we we we do a

[07:53] no-questions-asked replacement for

[07:55] everything.

[07:56] >> Right.

[07:56] >> It's part of our high-end experience.

[07:59] >> And if I had to guess, I would say that

[08:01] probably the guys who partner with you,

[08:03] like G.Skill, just for the privilege of

[08:05] partnering with Slave PC, they probably

[08:07] just take the damn stick back, don't

[08:09] they?

[08:09] >> Uh yeah, basically.

[08:11] >> [laughter]

[08:11] >> So, the Costco model.

[08:12] >> In most cases.

[08:14] >> Now, I could see you flexing that kind

[08:15] of muscle on G.Skill, but with a brand

[08:17] like ASUS, my understanding is you crack

[08:21] open these cards personally,

[08:23] >> Mhm.

[08:23] >> take off the cooler, you put your own

[08:25] custom thermal compound on them, then

[08:27] you seal them back up. Are they covering

[08:29] you against that?

[08:30] >> No, not currently.

[08:31] >> You got to build that into your margin,

[08:33] basically.

[08:33] >> Sure, yeah. [clears throat] Um

[08:35] and then they use PTM.

[08:36] >> Okay, I mean, that's pretty good stuff,

[08:38] available on LTT store.

[08:39] >> So, we scrape that off.

[08:40] >> Okay, ouch.

[08:42] >> And then uh we have our own paste coming

[08:44] out soon, but we use it currently.

[08:46] >> Yeah, what's it called?

[08:47] >> Uh T1000, after Terminator.

[08:49] >> Because?

[08:50] >> There's some liquid metal in it.

[08:52] >> But not all liquid metal.

[08:53] >> Correct.

[08:54] >> So, what makes it safer than a typical

[08:56] liquid metal, which can have problems

[08:58] with long-term deployments?

[08:59] >> The liquid metal is embedded in the

[09:01] silicon. Uh there's little balls of the

[09:03] gallium.

[09:04] >> Right.

[09:04] >> And it's the application is just like

[09:07] thermal paste. There's no

[09:09] faffing around like liquid metal.

[09:10] >> What kind of a result improvement can

[09:12] you expect?

[09:13] >> We see, depending on the card and how

[09:15] the PTM was applied, uh

[09:17] 5 to 10° load.

[09:19] >> My last question then is with a system

[09:21] that's so tuned,

[09:23] AIO versus custom water cooling, really.

[09:26] >> Yeah.

[09:26] >> Why that choice?

[09:27] >> We offer a warranty,

[09:29] and I'm we we just don't really want

[09:31] people to have to worry about algae and

[09:34] cleaning a loop, filling a loop, even

[09:36] shipping a loop. If we're having trouble

[09:38] with thermals, it's way easier to have

[09:41] them send it to us to put a new AIO or

[09:43] if they're one of your smart viewers,

[09:46] they can probably figure it out

[09:48] themselves, and we allow that.

[09:49] >> The cold, hard truth is that as much as

[09:52] I love custom water cooling, if you are

[09:55] the kind of person who can't build a

[09:56] custom water cooling loop, you shouldn't

[09:59] be buying a custom water cooling loop

[10:00] because you are not going to be able to

[10:02] handle the maintenance. While we sit and

[10:03] wait for the computer to boot, which is

[10:05] taking quite a while because it's

[10:07] retraining the memory, let's talk about

[10:09] a choice that I don't fully understand,

[10:11] which is that you've configured the

[10:13] system to retrain the memory all the

[10:14] freaking time. Is slower booting a

[10:16] feature?

[10:17] >> We use the run time reduction, we leave

[10:19] that disabled and the memory context

[10:21] restore disabled. Those are what make it

[10:23] take a long time to train,

[10:25] but when it does train,

[10:27] your system is more stable.

[10:29] >> And that's something that you need to

[10:30] redo frequently, even if you're not

[10:32] changing any settings?

[10:33] >> Correct. It just it's It's just more

[10:35] stable if it's always on a fresh train.

[10:38] >> Talk us through what you got set here.

[10:39] I'm sure Obviously, we're running Expo.

[10:42] >> Running Expo.

[10:43] >> But then we're also not cuz you've

[10:45] turned the frequency up a little bit,

[10:46] you're playing around with the F clock.

[10:47] Walk us through it.

[10:48] >> This system we're launching with a

[10:51] gaming profile and then a daily like

[10:54] work

[10:55] not fun profile. So, the gaming profile,

[10:59] obviously we have Expo enabled, but

[11:01] we're also going to enhance those

[11:02] timings further.

[11:03] >> Sure.

[11:03] >> For gaming, I prefer to keep it fixed

[11:06] core clock and gaming mode enabled so we

[11:09] can ramp up the frequency. I have it at

[11:11] 55, and I find that the fixed frequency

[11:15] helps with the 1% lows

[11:17] >> Mhm.

[11:17] >> and just the the overall smoothness of

[11:19] the gaming because it's not trying to

[11:22] guess where it's power limit's going to

[11:24] be and changing frequency.

[11:26] >> That's a really important detail because

[11:27] while it's tempting to look at a graph

[11:29] of average FPS and just choose whichever

[11:31] one's at the top. I think we all know

[11:34] that the times when we really feel the

[11:36] speed of our hardware are in a heavy

[11:38] firefight or when there's a whole bunch

[11:40] of visual effects on screen and you've

[11:42] got that that stutter or that dip. By

[11:45] focusing on that, you might actually,

[11:48] which is ironic, harm your benchmark

[11:51] results,

[11:52] but you deliver a more usable daily

[11:54] driving experience. And then game mode

[11:57] is just disabling eight of your cores.

[11:58] >> All right. The non-X3D ones on this X3D

[12:02] and non-X3D chip.

[12:03] >> And the SMT.

[12:04] >> Oh, we're doing away with hyper, excuse

[12:06] me,

[12:07] simultaneous multi-threading as well.

[12:09] >> The primary timings,

[12:12] like your TCL,

[12:14] uh they don't matter as much. It's all

[12:16] these juicy secondaries and tertiary

[12:19] timings in the bottom. And this has just

[12:21] been learned over time, trial and error,

[12:24] what works best. You can't just set one

[12:26] on all of them. There's a harmony

[12:28] between them that you have to

[12:30] It's a song.

[12:32] >> [laughter]

[12:33] >> The memory also we keep it synced, if

[12:37] you clock them and clock one to one

[12:40] for latency.

[12:40] >> Cuz it's nice if you can like run at

[12:42] higher frequencies on your memory, but

[12:44] if you're running at a higher frequency

[12:45] and it's costing you performance, are

[12:47] you really winning? So, tell us a little

[12:49] bit more about some of these

[12:50] sub-timings.

[12:51] >> Probably your most important one is the

[12:53] refresh interval.

[12:54] >> Sure.

[12:55] >> And

[12:56] nine times out of 10 you can just max

[12:58] that out as high as it'll go and you'll

[13:00] be fine.

[13:01] >> And that gives you what benefit?

[13:02] >> The benefit like in a benchmark or in

[13:05] gaming just from this, I would say is

[13:08] maybe like 2% 1% 1.5.

[13:12] >> Really?

[13:13] >> So, that's a huge one. And there's lots

[13:15] of great uh resources like overclock.net

[13:19] and and other websites that have entire

[13:22] dedicated pages of just

[13:25] >> [music]

[13:25] >> people who love memory tuning.

[13:27] and often times you can figure out if

[13:30] you have a similar kit with the same

[13:33] ICs. Often times you can just copy and

[13:36] paste and enjoy the extra performance

[13:38] that they found.

[13:39] >> Is there anything else in the gaming

[13:40] profile that you'd say is is worth kind

[13:43] of [music] showing?

[13:43] >> You turn like the all the global

[13:45] C-states,

[13:47] any of the fancy AI stuff would get shut

[13:50] off.

[13:51] >> Yeah, okay.

[13:51] >> Virtualization, even AVX 512 we shut

[13:54] off.

[13:55] >> And why do we disable AVX 512?

[13:57] >> Essentially if you get into a scenario

[13:59] where your CPU is at 55

[14:02] and you're running higher voltage,

[14:05] you're not going to have a thermal issue

[14:07] if it runs AVX 512. Cuz it'll just run

[14:10] AVX 256.

[14:12] >> Right, it'll fall back.

[14:13] >> Yeah.

[14:13] >> That's obviously something [music] that

[14:15] you've fine-tuned. Is this something

[14:16] where system by system you're going in

[14:18] and finding the sweet [music] spot for

[14:20] voltage, chip by chip? But these aren't

[14:22] just like any random chips and then you

[14:23] put as much voltage as it takes.

[14:25] >> No.

[14:25] >> So, how many chips do you typically go

[14:28] through to get one for a slave pro?

[14:31] >> I'd say one in four or five

[14:34] are are not good enough.

[14:36] >> Oh, okay. So, most of them are good

[14:38] enough.

[14:38] >> Most of them are good enough.

[14:40] >> We are changing a lot of settings going

[14:43] from our gaming profile to our daily

[14:45] driver profile.

[14:46] >> [music]

[14:46] >> We rely on a lot of PBO, which is the

[14:49] built-in kind of

[14:51] assisted AMD overclocking

[14:54] >> Yeah.

[14:54] >> features.

[14:56] And basically

[14:58] that's another kind of thing you can

[15:00] play with. You can let the motherboard

[15:02] handle it all.

[15:03] >> Sure.

[15:03] >> Or you can use your own custom settings.

[15:06] We use custom settings because our

[15:08] cooler is really strong, the Corsair

[15:10] [music] cooler. So, we're just limiting

[15:12] our wattage to 275 watts.

[15:15] >> Right.

[15:16] I'll even have a limit at that point.

[15:18] That's a lot of wattage for

[15:19] a modern CPU.

[15:20] >> You're getting uh

[15:23] I think it was a 10% increase in R23 and

[15:27] R24.

[15:28] >> Right. So, that's Cinebench, just kind

[15:30] of a a heavy creator-oriented

[15:33] multi-threaded workload.

[15:34] >> And it won't constantly be running as

[15:36] fast as it can to hit 95 C and throttle

[15:38] back like stock would be.

[15:40] >> Right. Which again, whether you're

[15:42] gaming or whether you're doing anything

[15:44] else,

[15:44] >> [music]

[15:44] >> is not ideal for the consistency of the

[15:47] overall experience, nor is it ideal for

[15:49] stability.

[15:50] >> [music]

[15:50] >> Can you talk us through like some of the

[15:52] changes that you have made here? You You

[15:55] told us like the the power limit, right?

[15:56] [music] But, some of this other stuff

[15:59] looks like it's been adjusted. Your

[16:01] precision boost overdrive scalar, have

[16:02] you changed that?

[16:03] >> Uh yes, we have that on 4x.

[16:06] Uh which it it'll it increases the

[16:08] maximum boost voltage used.

[16:10] >> Okay.

[16:11] >> Which we can also do because of our good

[16:13] cooling. We have the

[16:15] boost clock plus 200, and I believe

[16:18] that's the maximum that you can set.

[16:20] >> Right.

[16:21] >> And mostly our goal for the

[16:23] daily is

[16:25] stability with speed.

[16:26] >> Right.

[16:27] >> Whereas our gaming is pure gaming.

[16:31] >> Speed.

[16:31] >> Nothing else matters.

[16:32] >> But, also stability.

[16:34] >> Yeah.

[16:34] >> What's our max CPU frequency that we

[16:36] might see in our daily driver mode?

[16:38] >> Daily driver mode, I believe ramps up to

[16:41] 5.4

[16:43] on

[16:44] uh light load, and then 5.2 on Prime95

[16:48] and like R15.

[16:49] >> So, we're getting up to another 300 MHz

[16:50] when we're gaming if we flip over

[16:51] [music] to our gaming mode. Why don't we

[16:53] do gaming mode? Now that we're on

[16:54] Windows, everything we've looked at so

[16:56] far is CPU, but everybody knows that for

[16:58] modern graphically intensive games, the

[17:00] CPU is just

[17:02] it's such a small part of the story. So,

[17:04] why don't you talk through some of what

[17:06] you're doing on this Astral [music]

[17:07] 5090?

[17:07] >> Because we have the Astral 5090 and the

[17:10] cooling is so good, we pretty much set

[17:12] it to a fixed clock of

[17:15] what is too loud or or too much for you

[17:18] to handle out of three wise?

[17:20] >> Um

[17:21] >> Okay.

[17:22] >> A lot of people wanted at 100 that we've

[17:24] had.

[17:24] >> Yeah.

[17:25] >> Uh but I don't and I can't handle that.

[17:27] So, I put it at your favorite number.

[17:30] >> Nice.

[17:31] >> And

[17:32] because of our cooling

[17:34] I don't like to use curve.

[17:37] I like to set a fixed boost.

[17:39] >> Oh, really?

[17:39] >> Right.

[17:40] >> Okay, that's [music] I I gain some of

[17:42] the conventional wisdom these days. Want

[17:44] to walk us through that?

[17:45] >> People use the VF tuner. They're wanting

[17:48] to undervolt.

[17:50] >> Or they're worried about temperature

[17:52] where we aren't.

[17:52] >> We're not?

[17:53] >> Memory clock

[17:54] the Astros all have really great memory.

[17:57] So, we're we've been safe at this number

[17:59] on 99% of the cards.

[18:02] Which is a plus 7,000

[18:06] overclock. So, you can imagine if you

[18:08] didn't have any any overclock, it would

[18:10] be worse.

[18:11] >> Now, Nvidia doesn't let us play around

[18:13] with power limits anymore.

[18:14] >> Correct.

[18:15] >> Is there anything that you do on these

[18:16] systems or are we just kind of stuck

[18:18] within their constraints?

[18:19] >> Just by keeping it cool, we're keeping

[18:22] the power a little lower to get that

[18:24] extra performance. [music]

[18:25] >> Right, okay.

[18:26] >> That but that's that's it. There's no

[18:27] BIOS or anything that we're using.

[18:29] >> To give you an idea of what all of the

[18:31] optimizations that Alan has done to his

[18:33] systems add up to, we built a system

[18:36] with near identical specs, even using

[18:39] the same airflow optimized case and the

[18:41] same cooling, but without any of his

[18:44] special binning [music] or his

[18:46] optimizations. We just picked whatever

[18:49] hardware met the spec and happened to be

[18:51] compatible, and then we enabled Expo

[18:53] memory overclocking in the BIOS.

[18:55] >> [music]

[18:55] >> And

[18:56] we're going to send it. We're going to

[18:57] run these two side by side. We're firing

[18:59] up in Forza Horizon 6. We're going to

[19:01] start benchmark mode, extreme plus ray

[19:04] tracing, 4K, no holds barred. 3 2 1.

[19:09] Okay, so what does that work out to?

[19:11] That's about 3%? Well, your CPU

[19:14] simulation time is obliterating mine.

[19:18] So, all we're really learning in here is

[19:21] that Nvidia does not allow really a lot

[19:23] of tuning on their GPUs. And that we are

[19:26] heavily GPU bound in this game.

[19:28] >> Sure.

[19:29] >> That's what we learned from this game.

[19:31] Let's move on to something a little bit

[19:33] more CPU bound. Holy bananas.

[19:38] We're looking at like an extra 200 plus

[19:42] FPS here. That is flipping crazy. Okay,

[19:46] let's go let's go somewhere else. Let's

[19:48] go

[19:50] Yeah, let's head over to bomb site A.

[19:52] So, I'm at like 230 lows, 600 average.

[19:56] You're at Oh, wait. Oh, you're all over

[19:58] the place, too. Yeah, we're we're both a

[19:59] little bit all over the place. Okay, I'm

[20:00] holding still. Okay, I'm at like 230 250

[20:04] for lows. Very similar, actually. Both

[20:07] of them are all flipping over the place.

[20:10] >> See, the GPU time

[20:11] for both of us is pretty

[20:13] 37 and

[20:14] >> Yeah, our GPUs are doing like nothing

[20:16] right now. And this is pretty close, but

[20:19] I would say I don't think I ever saw it

[20:21] dip below 200 for you, though. Holy

[20:23] crap. You're cracking a thousand and I'm

[20:27] at like 700 600 here. Even with all the

[20:30] bots there and even with all the models

[20:33] there, he's still getting more FPS than

[20:36] me. Especially noticeable in the 1%

[20:38] lows. I'm at like

[20:40] 250 270 280. You're at like 290 300.

[20:46] Yeah, in a more CPU bound title, very

[20:49] clear that the optimization is giving

[20:51] you more FPS. Now, is the difference

[20:53] between 250 and 300 FPS likely to make

[20:57] you a better Counter-Strike player if

[20:58] you suck? No. But, if you're really

[21:00] good, is it going to give you every last

[21:03] edge? Yeah.

[21:05] Okay, should we try one more game?

[21:06] >> Sure.

[21:07] >> Once again in Cyberpunk, it's easier to

[21:09] run the benchmark than it is to find the

[21:10] exact same place on the map. So, 3 2 1,

[21:13] I'm getting way more FPS than you in

[21:14] this menu. [music] Got him.

[21:15] >> You win. I'm going to go.

[21:17] >> Okay.

[21:18] So, we're looking at

[21:20] around like 7% performance improvement,

[21:23] but what about our 1%? Average is 1% and

[21:27] maximum, it's just

[21:29] a little bit faster. We've already run

[21:31] this a couple of times and we're looking

[21:32] at anywhere from about 7% improvement

[21:35] for Slave's machine up to about 12%

[21:38] improvement in the most extreme

[21:39] difference that we got between them.

[21:40] But, I don't actually think the

[21:41] performance delta is even the biggest

[21:44] part of the story. I think it's the

[21:45] cooling. So, you can see right behind

[21:46] me, just like we saw before, our CPU is

[21:49] running way cooler on his machine in the

[21:51] neighborhood of around 8 or 9° right

[21:55] now. And the GPU, too, is running at

[21:56] about, man, it's like 12° cooler. Now,

[22:00] like Alan said, a lot of this you guys

[22:02] can do for yourselves using guides that

[22:04] we'll have linked below and information

[22:06] that he has freely shared. It's just a

[22:08] question of whether you feel like it.

[22:10] And I guess that's where you come in is

[22:12] if you don't feel like it, this man

[22:13] build a Yeah.

[22:15] >> He feels like it a lot.

[22:17] Thanks, Alan, for coming out and showing

[22:20] us how you build a supremely tuned

[22:22] system. And to the rest of you guys out

[22:23] there,

[22:24] uh buy one of these computers or he's

[22:26] threatened to crush me.

[22:29] Oh, wow, you really embraced that faster

[22:31] than I thought. Now, it's time for me to

[22:33] crush this segway to our sponsor.

[22:43] >> Game game, why does our business

[22:45] management software taste so much better

[22:47] than everyone else's?

[22:48] >> That's because I keep everything cooking

[22:49] in the same pot, little guy.

[22:51] >> How does that help?

[22:53] >> Oh, it's quite simple. If you want to

[22:54] track leads, get accurate forecasts,

[22:56] [music] and close more business deals,

[22:59] spice up the pot with a CRM app.

[23:01] >> Automate your replenishment strategies

[23:03] with a nice savory inventory app. And

[23:06] for a little subtle sweetness, add a

[23:08] dash of invoicing so your team can

[23:10] create and send invoices in record time.

[23:13] >> I can't wait to help so many people

[23:15] manage their entire business with one

[23:17] easy-to-use platform.

[23:18] >> Aw, that's sweet, sugar. Everything

[23:21] tastes better when brought together.

[23:22] Remember,

[23:23] all you got to do is Odoo.

[23:26] >> [laughter]

[23:28] >> Are you going to take the picture?

[23:29] >> Mhm, use our link for a free 15-day

[23:31] trial with no credit card required or

[23:33] book a demo with Gam-Gam.

[23:34] >> Huh?

[23:36] >> And if you only use one app, it's free.

[23:39] >> But

[23:39] >> But now.

[23:40] >> [laughter]

[23:41] >> But

[23:41] my photo.
