Absolutely, great game.
43
Okay, so then the tech is actually for both of you to use.
44
Yeah, absolutely.
45
Before we get started, I gotta say, wow, what a tasteful home.
46
So classy, everything about it.
47
Be careful about it.
48
What the hell are those?
49
Are those guinea pigs?
50
They were.
51
What does that mean?
52
They're not around anymore.
53
Okay, I'm sorry to hear that.
54
Are they supposed to be that big, or are you just that small?
55
I'm short on you.
56
I love that Steve owns his small stature.
57
He doesn't try to compensate state.
58
See, another short man might get a big fixed sound bar, but not Steve.
59
What is up with this?
60
What do you mean?
61
It's, uh, looks good.
62
Aesthetically pleasing, which is what is most important for me.
63
I didn't give him enough credit for consideration.
64
He does think of the wife.
65
With that in mind, where do you want to get started on our tech upgrade?
66
We've got lighting, we've got new furniture, we've got gaming.
67
I've never built a PC before, so that's something.
68
We should start that sooner rather than later then.
69
Yep.
70
There's Ikea furniture.
71
That always takes like quadrupled amount of time to start.
72
Reese!
73
Hmm, yeah.
74
My wife's car is downstairs.
75
That is also for her.
76
Oh, that's also for her.
77
Nice.
78
No, I want to do that.
79
That'll be fun.
80
We could use the blender.
81
Smoothies, smoothies, smoothies, smoothies, smoothies.
82
Okay, I think we're making smoothies today.
83
I've never made a smoothie before, so someone's going to...
84
This is not for...
85
It's for my wife.
86
Reese, I think this is going to be your workspace.
87
Oh, wow.
88
I can see why you're replacing this rug.
89
We've had that rug for about 10 years, so yeah, it's about time.
90
You can see where the old sofa was.
91
I can see what it used to look like.
92
Hey, this comes with a free boot.
93
Oh, yeah, you can put it on your head too.
94
How cool is that?
95
Why don't we make the smoothies?
96
Yeah, right?
97
We'll keep all the hair out of the smoothies.
98
Wait, how bit?
99
Dude, Steve, how much of the...
100
Did you measure your room first, brother?
101
No, but I think we can make it work.
102
Is it this way or is it the other way?
103
Yes.
104
Whoa Break it break it on me.
105
Break it on me.
106
I'm gonna do it.
107
No, don't hit him in the head.
108
Not at work No, don't work ours!
109
On my back.
110
On your back, Ken.
111
Yeah, let's do it.
112
I know right what the heck i'm confident yeah reese is confident i believe in reese i believe in reese
113
that makes two people who believe in reese
114
and only one who believes in i think that the real problem is
115
that the rug wasn't too is too big it is a
116
big one i blame it steve i will i will take
117
the blame yep yep i won this good he does have
118
a wife i actually think the biggest issue right now is
119
that we haven't resolved the slippiness at all yeah there's uh this thing just oh my god Sorry, sorry.
120
You didn't get any underlay or anything.
121
Yeah.
122
Am I supposed to say a bit?
123
Well, you didn't get any underlay.
124
I'm Chinese.
125
I don't know what that means.
126
You've worked here for years.
127
You can't just be like, no speak English.
128
What the f*?
129
It's how I get out of client meetings.
130
Do you even speak Chinese?
131
Okay, so when we went to Computex last year.
132
That doesn't sound like Chinese.
133
They put me on the delegation sheet for translation.
134
I don't speak.
135
I took myself off and I opened it up again.
136
I was on there again. So I don't...
137
Okay.
138
I'm not responsible.
139
Note that I assumed he didn't.
140
Here, hold on.
141
Steve and I each take a corner of the rug.
142
Yeah, you guys kind of yank on it?
143
Just hold it steady, yeah.
144
I'll sit here and yank on it.
145
Okay.
146
This barely fits.
147
Yeah, this looks stupid as hell.
148
It looks good to me.
149
Adam.
150
Yeah?
151
You're tasteful.
152
Sure.
153
why don't we put you on ceiling lights nothing will leak out of these lights you said i'm tasteful
154
but what she meant is i'm tall and tasteful and tasty
155
time to go see if this is going to be easy to install
156
or a nightmare while adam's working on the lights
157
and reese is putting together the ikea furniture why don't we
158
get you started on building a pc i don't know how well step one is to get all the parts
159
that are a pc Grab your case.
160
That's a Nintendo.
161
You pick the one thing that's not a PC, Steve.
162
Steve's gone with the 7800X3D.
163
3D V -Cache.
164
This is a great gaming CPU.
165
What games do you play?
166
I think the last game I played was Rollercoaster Tycoon.
167
We don't judge here, Rhys.
168
There's no wrong game to play.
169
Well, there is nothing wrong with Rollercoaster Tycoon 20 years ago.
170
30 years ago, almost?
171
I don't know.
172
A long time ago.
173
Okay.
174
Well, what games are you planning to pick up? sorry i
175
keep doing it you you can keep opening okay okay are
176
you planning to try any new games um yes there was
177
that mouse pi detective uh black and white shooter looking one
178
that was interesting i'm gearing up for
179
when titan quest 2 actually comes out of early access interesting
180
that do i need this type of system to do
181
that probably not
182
but future -proof ish yeah no i mean this is a
183
this is a great platform hey steve did we uh did we get feed or anything or is this, you got any feet?
184
You like feet?
185
Why does that keep coming up in my life?
186
I don't know why that keeps happening.
187
I like different shoes for different reasons.
188
Like, do you want feet?
189
I have two.
190
I think we could use some for that.
191
Yeah.
192
Um, actually, hold on.
193
No. All right.
194
Gorgeous.
195
So we We went with the B650ME Wi -Fi motherboard because quite honestly with AM5, it just doesn't really matter that much.
196
If you don't need some of the higher speed connectivity and extra M .2 slots that the higher end chipset provides, you're not giving up any performance in gaming from their more entry level chipsets.
197
So you might as well go with something like this.
198
Question.
199
Yes.
200
Is it a sin if I don't plug this in ethernet?
201
If you use Wi -Fi?
202
Yeah.
203
I mean, it's not a sin it's just like do you like reliability
204
no you hate it yep then use wi -fi great i
205
assume then this is your first time installing a cpu you
206
assume correctly okay have you watched any of our videos yes
207
but do i remember anything i my adhb brain does not capture that information
208
so imagine like i haven't done this before i know nothing
209
about it okay oh god oh god okay you can leave
210
that in there for now let's open up the socket do you remember how to do
211
that it involves a little metal arm this is a metal
212
arm it sure is oh god you really have not done
213
this before okay a lot of people say yeah i've never done it before i don't remember the guides or whatever
214
but then they like they kind of know you really don't know i was thinking like should i watch
215
and do some research
216
but like i think this would be an a fun experience for us to go through together okay
217
i'm having fun so on the cpu there's a couple little notches in the side you're gonna line in those notches, I'll put the notches in the socket.
218
I can do that.
219
Oh God, no. Oh geez, not like that, okay.
220
I'm gonna slowly put this in here and let me know if I'm doing something wrong.
221
Yeah, you're doing great.
222
Great.
223
Okay, perfect.
224
Now you just put this.
225
Sorry, now you just put that down You did it.
226
I mean, yeah, well, okay, then you fold the arm down.
227
Go for it.
228
Hold the arm down How'd you get 32 gigs of RAM in this economy?
229
It's crazy, right?
230
Yeah, DDR5 -6000 CL30 This is a pretty decent little kit.
231
Although the hell is PowerX.
232
Oh, silicon power.
233
Okay, cool I know I know something about like First channel and then separating the channels and something like that.
234
So we're gonna use the two spaced out gray slots that are farther from the socket.
235
Great.
236
Nice.
237
Why did you buy a 1300 watt power supply?
238
It was supposed to be 850 gold, but Seasonic kind of hooked up a bit, kind of homies.
239
So I requested something that was a little lower spec.
240
But the way the budgeting works for these things, aren't you supposed to pay for stuff?
241
I had to figure that out with other compromises thanks c -sonic okay we'll get to
242
that later for now why don't you go ahead
243
and install this thermal right peerless assassin
244
so only experience i have a coolers is the stock amd one i had my last yeah
245
so i have no clue what i'm doing here they're a
246
great value i love what thermal rate is doing right now just outstanding value
247
great performance quality is awesome the more of these i install the more i love them
248
Like for all the warnings about how sharp it is
249
and to be clear that doesn't mean that there will never be a sharp one or that it Couldn't cut Steve.
250
It just means that in general.
251
I have found that the finishing on them is quite good Do you know why I chose this?
252
I don't know why Sven told me to choose it.
253
Word of mouth is still in the age of online marketing and digital everything The most powerful driver.
254
Drivers that goes in the This gets installed in the computer.
255
Yeah Yeah, where I was actually heading with that was, I was gonna segue to tell them about our screwdriver.
256
Don't forget, Stubby is great for working in confined spaces.
257
Lttstore .com, but I like yours too, that's good.
258
Steve, shall we see if your house burns down?
259
Let's flip that breaker!
260
I'm bloody terrified.
261
All right, well, I guess I'll be here.
262
Oh, it's on!
263
We got one.
264
We got two.
265
We did it, baby.
266
Woo.
267
All right.
268
Thermal compound.
269
A syringe.
270
So, uh, there's been many debates of like how much you need, how, what patent and that kind of stuff.
271
Just put a, about the size of a cooked pea right on the lower part of the middle.
272
A cooked pea.
273
To your left a little bit.
274
To your left a little bit.
275
That's your right.
276
There you go.
277
Right there.
278
That's good.
279
Wipe it off.
280
I'm not going to do it for you.
281
I can do this.
282
I can do this.
283
I can't do it nope i did it this is great
284
i think steve may be among the least competent pc builders
285
we've ever had in this series that's crazy yeah he's right
286
there after how many times along the day like almost broke
287
her computer at least i'm top dog at something i'll take
288
it all right now these go on the case no these
289
go on the cooler i'm gonna see myself out now that's your house where Where did you go?
290
Do you want me in here for show?
291
No, I want you in here to build the computer.
292
Yes, yes, yes.
293
I built, I built, I built.
294
Okay, plug these together.
295
Oh.
296
I feel like we're gonna end up with some extras.
297
LMG .GG slash float plane.
298
Which way goes in the what hole?
299
Just start trying stuff.
300
Plug into grounded three prong outlet.
301
There is no ground prong.
302
Are they high?
303
Oh, okay.
304
I stabbed your wall.
305
No, we're good.
306
Okay, you're welcome.
307
Steve, this is your house.
308
Where do you want it? this is really important is he gonna defect to the wife's opinion
309
or is he gonna stand up for himself
310
and be a man in his life you know how they
311
say like see one do one teach one i think i'm
312
gonna skip the teach uh after this you're not gonna teach
313
anybody how to build a computer no i don't think
314
so no no okay this is good good enough good job
315
no no this is good good job let's put your ssd
316
on okay you went with the crucial p310 two terabyte are you trying to flex on everybody here
317
or what future proof okay all right well here don't let
318
me stop you what i would do for a gen 4
319
drive today is i would probably just plug it into this
320
slot okay yeah you don't have a ton of like super high speed io on here
321
so you're not going to necessarily run into any bottlenecks by using the chipset m .2 and
322
that way in the future like by the time you actually
323
go to upgrade your storage on this system i suspect
324
that gen 5 drives will be plentiful and cheap
325
so you would throw that in there after the fact okay
326
if that even is yeah that's a gen 5 slot
327
so yeah go ahead and throw it in this slot right here all right
328
so you gotta actually get it into the slot okay
329
so gently jam okay you know what just leave it yeah
330
that's good yep good it's in it's in yay gently jammed
331
gently jammed fits a full -sized atx motherboard just all standard
332
components decent cooling a lot of the classic fractal noise reduction strategies
333
that they ripped off of the ntec p180 all right let's throw this down here you can go ahead
334
and throw the motherboard in i think what one of the problems i'm having right now is
335
that i'm on my tiptoes and and I can't see. Can I help you?
336
You got your fan cable all up in here.
337
Okay, this is one of the riskiest parts of building your own PC.
338
What do you mean?
339
I mean that if you scrape the back of the motherboard across those standoffs that you were just moving around, you can cut the traces and then it no worky.
340
Okay, so - I already put it in position.
341
Great.
342
How are things going over here?
343
All done.
344
Nice.
345
Drag it over.
346
That's as far in as it can go.
347
Oh, that's horrible there's a giant like brick power outlet back
348
here wait that's where these things come in oh i've not seen this before oh what a bizarre design yeah
349
so let's go to the wall and then we can run
350
that over here okay okay okay okay that's actually kind of cool um okay
351
everything's installed the power supply here's your oh these overkill power supply
352
that shout out see sonic
353
so you spent more on your power supply than any other
354
component of your system power supply is one of the most important components in yeah it is so
355
if i don't have to worry about one thing i'm good
356
i can worry about the rest of the thing yeah i
357
still would recommend a more balanced configuration for most of the people watching out there i like a little chaos.
358
I actually don't know if that's gonna fit.
359
It goes right up against the hard drive cages.
360
We're not using those anyways though.
361
Oh right I keep doing the work it's just it's so it takes so long when you do it.
362
Here tell you what Steve why don't you go set up the Switch 2.
363
Did you get the Mario Kart bundle?
364
No. yeah it's fine it's overrated um should we film this me ripping out the old switch
365
and putting new one in you might say you're switching it out that's okay yeah i was getting ready for
366
that joke and i was like one two switch i'm just gonna keep doing the thing
367
and then i'll leave yep steve yes we got this shark
368
steaming scrub yep this is exciting you got some nice flooring
369
in your place assuming you want to keep it clean
370
but isn't this bissel over here also
371
or is this just a vacuum that's a vacuum
372
so now you got then i got the trifecta well the the two the two factor
373
yeah demon and scrubbing rolling
374
and sucking that's where i go you got everything you need you got the steaming
375
and the scrubbing and then you got the rolling and the sucking
376
uh you've been following what we've been doing it makes tons
377
of sense all right steve i have done the hard part of all the wiring great
378
so this is where you get to put your gpu in and have that big, I built my own computer moment.
379
Where do we put the GPU?
380
Right here.
381
Got it, cool.
382
This should be pretty straightforward, but I have to remove the thingies, right?
383
Oh, I should probably - Oh yeah.
384
Yep.
385
I could have done that for you.
386
I was entrapped.
387
You all saw it.
388
Got him.
389
All right, go for it.
390
I believe in you.
391
Ooh, that's a lot of force.
392
Yeah, you're good, it's good.
393
Good job.
394
All right, here you go.
395
Ooh, Reese is back.
396
Reese, Reese, Reese, Reese, Reese.
397
Okay, we're taking a break.
398
we're finding out if the blender works now what the hell are you chopping to make a fruit smoothie
399
you're chopping fruit it was cheaper i thought you got frozen
400
fruit no it's cheaper wait you got you're gonna make a
401
smoothie out of fresh not frozen fruit the best way possible
402
yeah why didn't you get frozen fruit yeah why didn't you
403
get frozen the recipe called for fresh fruit i don't know
404
you picked up a recipe to make a smoothie well i got one frozen
405
that is the most unhinged I've heard in at least a month look up a recipe whoa My foot's never been cleaner
406
That tickles actually it's funny shark used to be the like Cheap crappy one.
407
Oh, they're good.
408
They're go -to now people people love shark.
409
I have a question.
410
I guess sure I've seen cases were like many many fans.
411
That's not really a question Is one fan enough?
412
So here's your intake.
413
Okay.
414
That's gonna put air right across your GPU.
415
Okay
416
also a little bit for your cpu here's your exhaust sure
417
probably fine the only way to know for sure is to just close it up throw it up there
418
and then worst case scenario
419
if you need some more airflow yeah you can add another fan to the front want to close it up
420
and take it upstairs let's do it all right what the
421
what is going on here are you putting apples in it it's a recipe bro
422
what the is going on here go upstairs And when he's holding that knife, I feel like, I feel inclined to listen.
423
Adam, he's putting apples in it!
424
Yeah, dude.
425
What's wrong with apples?
426
There's nothing wrong with them, but like, why?
427
Yeah, suck it, Minus!
428
Because they, um, I don't know, they add viscosity or something.
429
I am not knowledgeable enough in the smoothie game to be able to weigh in on this.
430
Me neither, I'm more just enjoying trolling movies.
431
Wow, the light in here is brilliant.
432
Is that your new Govi light?
433
It is!
434
Someone really cool installed it for me.
435
That's awesome so I'm really appreciating ice.
436
Okay, here's your wifi antenna.
437
It looks like a little shark fin.
438
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
439
So this is your recipe, so -called.
440
Well, not my recipe, it's the internet's recipe.
441
Yeah, the internet never gets it wrong.
442
I need a plunger.
443
Okay, um.
444
That tastes like absolute .
445
No, I'm scared.
446
Actually, that's pretty good.
447
That's pretty good, pretty good.
448
The apples really let it down.
449
You let me down.
450
All right, let's go see
451
if the computer worked oh hey there we go all right time to enable some expo up in here
452
while linus is getting your desktop set up you also got
453
a new laptop yes it's an asus vivo book why don't you hold that
454
and be like a vana white for a second wow it's
455
got an amd ryzen ai7 350 in it with one terabyte
456
pcie gen 4 ssd it's a nice machine hdmi can't take
457
that for granted these at 40 gigabit per second oh wow Okay, so this is like actually a pretty solid laptop.
458
What the frick is this, Steve?
459
IEMs.
460
So I am just wanting to get into the world of, I don't know, the audiophile world.
461
This is not, this is not even close.
462
This is designed in collaboration with another influencer, calls himself the Audio Unc B Media.
463
And this is based off of, QE is just terrace cable, basically tangle -free, very nice black.
464
Oh
465
Interchangeable termination points nice you have like
466
3 .5 millimeter as well as a forward for and a usbc with a built -in document.
467
Whoa, that's pretty sick Uh, you green nas.
468
Yeah, that makes everything simple.
469
We just huck it in there and then we're gonna set them up in raid one, right?
470
Yes
471
Raid one is the one where
472
if one of the hard drives fails all the data is
473
still on the other one i think that's a fantastic idea
474
but you get half as much storage space that's okay there's
475
12 terabytes here honestly the ugreen software is pretty solid currently you are just in a jbod scenario
476
but what we can do is we can use your two new hard drives set them up in raid one
477
so that they're redundant
478
and you can still use your other drives as a separate
479
pool now what is the average life of like a drive i mean i would say like average lifespan
480
that you can expect five to seven years
481
but you can use smart monitoring to detect the health of your drive
482
and that's a far better way to just get an idea of how long it's been on
483
or if it has any sort of like unallocated sectors any sort of problems it'll flag those up
484
and give you an idea of
485
when your drive is starting to go uh i'm just doing some windows updates
486
and then i actually installed a couple of games on here
487
so we can see how she's running she's man she's quiet
488
though hey it's nice I always have my body type represented in a game, you know?
489
Attention des collages.
490
Attention des collages.
491
That's me all the time.
492
I did put one demanding game on here, just so that we could kind of...
493
We got some gameplay with that.
494
But I wanted Steve Chan, I wanted a shot of Steve Chan enjoying.
495
Oh yeah, heck yeah.
496
Yeah.
497
Do you have to use his last name every time you address him or what?
498
It just, Steve does not feel like a real name.
499
That's crazy.
500
What kind of a thing to say is that?
501
I don't know you've always just been Steve Chan and not just Steve.
502
It's fine.
503
Steve Chan, the Asian man, it's me.
504
That's amazing.
505
Now that's what I'm calling you.
506
No, that's gonna get me in trouble.
507
Yeah, I wouldn't.
508

509

510

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
