camera rolling this AMD $5,000 ultimate tech upgrade it's going to be a little bit different like this give me the camera it's for our camera guy Andrew he's a really great guy he's witty thoughtful a full third of his upgrade

is going to his so and he's even got an accent go on say something oh God I don't know what to say right now you kidding me uh look I said it was going to be awkward yeah yeah thank you yeah isn't he dreamy though too bad he spent

his upgrade money on a bunch of gear for vlogging his motorbike tour so enjoy him while he's still around everyone thanks AMD this is going to be a good one I'm going to [Music] die win one of three Call of Duty themed

gift boxes featuring the new Ryzen 7 9800X3D the fastest gaming CPU on the market and ROG Ally and even an AMD Call of Duty hat you can't get this gift box from any retail store so don't miss your chance

head to the link in the description for your chance to win I have to say the vibe of this place feels almost unnaturally cozy and comfortable for me hey Rhys uh can you please go grab something over there for me sure yeah whatever man all right yeah

yeah I don't even I didn't even notice it was so low until he walked in you know tell me this I mean did you really have to go this full Lord of the Rings hog okay I know we're basically Hobbits yeah I know do you even actually have an

Irish accent or is that just a bit you're putting on? I can't not do an Irish accent in all seriousness this feels borderline obsessive like after work you just come home every day and read Lord of the Rings. I've never read any of them.

My girlfriend is a big, uh, collector here. Emma is, she loves Lord of the Rings all that stuff but she's also a big reader. So you can see over there, I'm very dyslexic so I've only read probably four books in my entire life. You know.

Of course, so okay, I'll tell you something right there's a bit of a theme. We're standing right by the light. I swear to God, Andrew, he's actually really great when he's behind the camera, really good sense of awareness on the set. It's literally the opposite, my girlfriend's

also Swedish, so there's a mix of Ireland and Sweden in here. That Swedish berries yeah oh I mean these aren't actually Swedish are they? The fish ones are yeah, how did he beat me to these? These are really famous in Sweden. I don't know why since we're over

here. Why don't we take a look at your setup? Uh, this, oh, this isn't your Wi-Fi password. It is? Yeah, get rid of that. Yeah, I don't have a router, so it's, so your neighbor's Wi-Fi. So it's your neighbor's

Wi-Fi. My landlord, and he lives upstairs. There's a lot of that kind of going on. So yeah, speaking of stealing, let's see if we can find anything that Andrew lifted from work like say for example this project mat. Like I brought that for this. Did you pay for it? No.

Sounds like stolen thanks Adam see he shot a fair number of these so he knows what I'm going to be looking for for I bet he didn't think I'd be looking for this this believe it or not that's something that we just have I kind of

like things the way they are you know what I mean organized slash mhm you know he doesn't need multiple kinds of cereal he just needs cereal he likes it the way it is yeah I like everything the way it is which is why I take it out of the bag

it comes and to put in a different jar what I gather then from the stealing of the neighbor's Wi-Fi and all of that is that while you haven't taken anything from the office it's more to do with that none of it entices you no offense

to the office office right but no it's just not my thing oh straight away right there you go yeah that belongs to the office there's no way you bought medical tape no what about the second roll of tape we don't use that what about Ridge

wallet I mean sure say they could have it yeah found an international power cord I'm International I have no idea what's in there I've heard that before Oh okay it's my old laptop this was my main editing rig when I used to work for

myself and at the past company funny story um I found this laptop by watching your videos basically back in 2017 yeah not this particular one I don't think you ever had anything to do with with this laptop in particular but I knew what

specs to look out for all that kind of thing just thanks to that yeah now you give people the tech tips let's take a look at the rig upgrade do you use this for editing or gaming or what yeah editing video editing it's kind of mid-

tier I I used to do freelance work but right now I'm I just do it for pleasure so now um why do you have a low profile cooler in here this is yeah inexpertly built oh okay with all due respect what the actual heck is going on with the

front of this computer it's been moved from there to there and I never noticed that there was so much dust at the front of it we're getting rid of it who cares sure are I noticed you're going for a significantly smaller build with the

Loki Ghost S1 yes indeed want to downsize want to make more room on our desk over there for crafts and things like that and uh also you're into crafting are you yeah a little bit it's more my girlfriend but yeah I I craft a

bit you know well I will now that I have all this new stuff what are you going to make the plan is like stickers like merch but not to sell like just for her friends and stuff like that that kind of thing okay but what are you going to

craft I'm probably going to craft some sort of decals for my bike I would come up with a name of like the crew make a sticker for it and put it on all the stop signs and stuff oh don't admit F  I don't care what are you going to

Do you, I mean, I'm not from here. They don't... why don't we get the build started? So you're reusing your old GPU, but basically everything else is new. So Ryzen 9 7900X, that aligns well with the goal of video editing. So we got 8 cores, 

Zen 5 architecture. You've got what I assume is going to be 32 gigs of RAM here. Nailed it. 4 terabytes SSD, who needs that kind of solid state storage? I actually don't think I asked for that. It says on your parts list 2 terabytes, so I don't 

know if you get to keep that. It's in the pile. I'm keeping it. You know what I mean? I picked this... when we did Emily's gaming van, I took, I took a photo of the motherboard and I was like, that is going 

to be perfect. And then big fat 850W power supply. I asked Adam about this. Adam's here, that's the one, isn't it? Yes, that's, that's the one. So apparently this will fit. How about this, before we start the build, let's go take a look at some 

of the bike upgrades for sure. Wait, I missed the office theft that was right in front of me. He's been wearing our cargo pants since long before they came out. Oh yeah, and you know what? These are my second pair. I offered to test them because we like to put batteries and all 

that crap in our pockets. So yeah, good pants though. Available now LTTstore.com. This is my bike, you might recognize it. I do. Um, it's an SV650S. Yes, S stands for Less comfortable than the regular one. Yeah, it pretty much does, but you look so much cooler. It's 

It's a pretty cool bike. Yours, I think, is a 2003, yeah, 2003. This is a 2010. This is a really late one for this um type. I don't think they kept making the S after this year. This is a smart choice because mine

doesn't have ABS. Exactly. Was probably the biggest change that they made from 2003 to now in terms of bike safety and um yeah, this guy doesn't have it. Are this a brake fluid reservoir right there? There's always something covering it. I have no idea why I was driving down

Highway 1 and someone recognized the LTT on it. No way! Yeah, all right. Do me a favor, buddy. Uh, go get a piece of wood. Yeah, you bet. Yeah, we've Canadianized him. He calls people buddy now. Yeah, buddy. Hey buddy, hey buddy. Oh, I went the

biggest piece you could find. F oh my God. What are we changing then? Not much actually. Uh, I've got a top box that I'll show you that normally goes on the back here. M, we're going to try and make it so that we can have camera equipment with

us on the tours. But for the bike itself, we're going to put decals on the wheels, like rim tape and stuff like that. Cool. All right. I'm not sure they sent over two. Well, you got two wheels, don't you? Well, well, you see, I hope so because

they're very different colors. What do you prefer? This one's rubbish. Yeah, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, and it's a far completely different. Andrew. Look who the heck is Andrew? George. Definitely not me. That's a real British name. Okay. Do you think he's having a go?

at you he might be having a go yeah he's from Sweden though oh there's a lot of Swedish people in my life I don't know how it happened but it's not designed for Hobbits this one all right help me here okay right

okay actually helpful mate I'm allowed to give him about being short oh God oh wait did you want me to let go of the brake when we were doing that I hope you're I hope you're joking it'd be the first time someone's been fired on their

upgrade shoot you know what I mean me oh no it'll be me I'm telling you LMG Dogg float plane float plane exclusive why does Andrew trying to put the bike on yeah this is this is bull yeah little oh yeah yeah keep it going no wonder so many people quit

after we do these things he told me that he didn't really yeah there's no way I'm going to let that make the cut okay can I help with anything like wait that was it you're just going to give it a wipe down that was the dry there's so much dust on

it it's barely even cleaner than your computer what do we think WD40 probably I mean that'll clean it but then how do we clean off the WD40 it's a bit of a pain in the arse I lick it off I love it

don't do that H I'll go get another cloth Please Don't Spray the brake with this you spray a brake yet just saying spray the brake with the WD40 it's probably going to be fine I'm not going to help you with anything Don't Spray

The break, this is what it's meant to look like. We'll show you in a second what that's cool. I don't think we're getting that effect, dude. These are giant freaking stickers. Getting these perfectly aligned is going to be a thing.

Okay, well one thing I got figured out already is this. Yeah, goes here on the rim. So why don't we start with that? I'm probably going to screw it out. You know what, it already looks good. I mean, sure maybe that's all we need. We are going to have a conversation

once you've done that first one though about what it's going to look like. Okay, conversation, yeah, you're in trouble. It's not bad. I mean that's on, yeah, that's pretty, that looks good. Why don't we only do this, but we do all the wheels with

this? Oh, okay, wait, no, now I'm super confused because we totally have enough of these ones to do both wheels. Yeah, this is enough. I hope it's enough. Okay, then we're good. So somebody probably looked at that straight away and knew that we had enough, and now we look like

two. Yeah, do you want Reese to do the stickers? No, wow, rude. Okay, let's see what these guys are up to. Hold on, we'll come back to the stickers. Wow, the mod mat ended up on my on my yeah, cuz it's heat resistant. So if I turn the stove on, it

should be totally. No, the Ghost S1 is very small. Yeah, uh, luckily this is a custom-made cooler from Noctua that's designed specifically for this case. Really? They did that? Yep, they modified it. It's the Ghost S1 Edition. I will say.

This is my first time really getting work done with the Precision kit uh-huh the magnetic lid is so amazing that's the screws from the motherboard that's screws for the case and they're they're in that cooler going to handle the 9700

X okay yeah it should right right it's freaking that's why we went new you can decide which power profile you want to use the stock 65 watt profile or AMD now warranties a 105 watt profile that increases performance compared to our

original review but obviously it's going to run a little hotter all right why don't we get back to sticker time sure yeah this Adam seems to have this under control good going to come off yeah she's going she's going what am I doing sure you ready yeah here we go

first spin ow I can't spin it it's hard I mean that looks all right doesn't it right yeah I I was real skeptical about this when I saw it like yeah it's all right that's actually not bad that looks good yeah what your side

is better than my side yeah but my side I put the thing in the wrong spot yeah there's plenty of time for mine to get worse there's definitely a few more bubbles in it this time and I think that from 6 ft away you know next to you in

traffic that's not going to be noticeable you never know what these AMD upgrade videos are going to devolve into this is like 20% actual tech hardware and like 80% putting stickers on a motorcycle I'm not going to lie I was a

little bit worried because like I'm not like a techie I don't know mechanical stuff is more my interest you know what I mean well that's the thing that I think a lot of our content misses the point of sometimes is that tech is a

means to an end yeah it's not just for the sake of tech like why are we doing this so that we can like vlog our touring and like edit it together and that's why we need a good computer not because we just like to look at the

computer what do you think it's not great because of the there's a thing here oh yeah wow no you actually it yeah now watch me do it even worse it's not a competition that's who could do it worse please just always drive in the right lane I I I will oh

she's perfect why didn't I think of this why am I putting all this work into painting just stickers on it I have little girls so my experience putting stickers on things appears to be uh pretty aced here compared to the average compared to what to what compared to the

average dude I'm not average this is coming together great yeah I get why Andy doesn't like working in it though it's very cramped and you basically have one order that you can do things in so if you mess up one step you're going

to find yourself pulling something like three or four things out just to fix it it looks great though it looks really cool yeah the cooling is even not going to be that bad he's got the 92 mil on the CPU cooler over there big 120 mm

cooler on the power supply that's what I love about SFX-L that was a Silverstone innovation taking the SFX form factor which is limited to a 92mm fan and just making it a little bit bigger allowed them to squeeze those low-profile 120mm fans

in there yeah because this is a Platinum efficiency power supply it's going to be dead quiet sick want to see a minor problem with this case sure okay well no no it'll go it'll go yeah I just want to I need to get this

stuff and also before I close anything up we got to do a boot just to make sure that everything's still good wise yeah this is always the scariest part of doing a case short circuit cuz either you're done or it's going to be like

another hour that's a good sign what you you just did it without even telling the camera guy you're going to turn the thing J A moment of truth act like everything's going great hey how's it going great apparently yeah well the bike looks good yeah yeah yeah why don't

you go look at it somewhere why don't you go show the people your camera equipment you got and go take some pictures of it fully functioning I guess I'm on my own here they're finished both front and back I think they look good it's a little oh it's going great

computer's going great it's a little not bad it only wobbles a little yeah it's only a little it's a lot less than my paint job did okay I got this this with the bike it doesn't look great or anything like that but you know it is

for traveling and things yeah let's show them how much storage this bike has on its own look at all my camera gear and that's the included toolkit so like 48 L goes on here yeah this is a camera insert from Moments I got exactly cuz

we're going to velcro it so I'm going to get these power banks so I can charge my stuff on the move I got a Cardo this is a Bluetooth speaker that goes in your helmet and it's a communication device and means that on my way into work for

example I can listen to music do you want to describe what that camera is nope okay I don't know what it is it's a DJI Action 4 they brought out a five but I was too late but also I didn't really I don't need the five I'm getting uh ND

filters so I can keep the shutter speed the way I want to cinematic and then I got this um mic adapter and I'm going to run that into my helmet from here oh so that means when I can go around like oh look at the view people or people I'm

probably not going to share any of that stuff but like I don't know there's a lot of noise out there you know I don't don't know if want to I don't know if people want to see it maybe sure well you know that now that you've said

that the entire comment section is be upload it upload it do it do it um I got this one from chin mounts it'll actually fit my specific model helmet oh cool it'll go here oh yeah okay that's why they call them chin mounts all right

Let's do it. You're going to be looking at your tank here to about here. Oh okay, so I could see like here, but what if we did hang it upside down? We could try that. Oh yeah, better. Yeah, yeah, that's pretty good. You can see the instrument cluster and

you can also actually see anything like I can see up to here. Oh, perfect. Yeah, nice wide angle. You can see any like leprechauns that are running by and jam rocks. He can't get down from there, so I'm safe anyway. We got to figure out the

audio setup though. Yeah, I know. Since we're in here, do you want to talk about some of the upgrades that aren't for you like this Cricut? Oh my goodness, they've gotten really small. Yes, I actually edited Yvonne's Cricut short circuits that she did. Oh really? And ever since

then I was like, "You should get one of these things." To Emma, right? But we worked out that that the one that Yvonne had or has still is just too big. So yeah, we got the Joy Explore or something like that. It's called... I actually have no idea

how these things work. Well, you can put a cutting thing, you can put a pen thing, you can put like just like various ends on it, and it's basically just a CNC controlled head that moves around, but that's the point of the iPad. There we go. Yeah.

Yeah, so we got an iPad, iPad Air, yeah, and the pencil. Grab the pencil, pencil. Yes, and then so we draw, pencil, and then print. Speaking of printing, uh, you decided to go back to what, like the '90s, and buy a printer? Yes, this is another thing that uh is going

to go with all our crafts. The best thing about this was I got multiple messages on Teams when it came in and everyone, a lot of people were like, "I can't believe you got a printer!" Yeah, like I, in like that was like, "Well done, almost Rockstar move."

You know, you got one of the EcoTank models from Epson, so you can actually print pretty copious amounts of stuff with these and it's pretty economical. The only drawback, as we covered recently, is that if you don't print something for a while, it can get clogged like any

inkjet would, but if you guys are printing out stickers or printing out transfers or you whatever else, then uh yeah, pretty much the way to go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did we figure out what was going on, or was it just that he was running an older platform from some other maker and

it just started working and I didn't question it. Oh, I'll get started on putting this cardo on here. I'm just a little confused by this because I got the male side of the Velcro here. Okay, I got the soft side here, but there's

already, there's already a thing. Oh, dude, is this going to be that easy? Done it! Just goes in there like that. That's too easy. Oh yeah, because that to kind of, yeah, just kind of stuff it in there and then we'll put this over top and that'll probably like kind of

mash it in there. There we go. All right, yeah. What do you think? There, yeah, like just somewhere like not stupid looking. Wait, no, don't, what if I was serious, then you would have just done it. Tell me right now if you don't want me

to do it No it's great Tell me right now Yeah no no it's good it's good All right we're going to have to beep so much of this video because of this this guy Get your swearing under control Give me this thing I

don't I really don't want to swear that much It's just you're you infu yay okay there So go on there Jeez it's not great looking though is it Beautiful I can you show it to the showing it to everybody but poor poor

Glenn's like trying to do a maneuver Sorry this looks like it's going well Oh yeah it's great Look at that 72 degrees in FM mark on the GPU What's our CPU doing 86 86 I'll take it All core load turboing

to 4.5 He's running at full Expo speeds It's a it's pretty pretty nice rig you got Oh no you didn't leave it in 65 watt mode It's doing 88 Watts Yeah let it do PBO Let's go Now I would never call you

cool but this may be the single coolest USB drive Hey how much do you like this lamp being right here Why do you need to move his lamp Yeah I don't know cuz there's just not really a good spot to put his speakers unless we put them on

the side by I don't I'm worried if we have enough room They look good though don't they the speakers Sure yeah they like how to tell a friend/colleague you think they made a terrible decision with only the tone of your voice Look at him and facial expression

there are worse speakers out there, are worst looking speakers, but there are better ones of course, and that that's a longer list. Do you remember where I'm from, Glenn? I do. Somewhere miserable and rainy, so that narrows it down to somewhere on on this island, somewhere.

rural. It's not that rural, which narrows it down to this island, this island, somewhere. Killmore. No, Ral. It's right there. Okay, all right. That was close. Shout out Ral. I was within what, like an hour? Yeah. Geog guesser, that'd be a

pretty okay score. Yeah, there it is. Perfect. Ah, not bad, right? It really is not bad. Yeah. See, see if it goes on. Okay. Oh, sorry. Am I a up in your space here? It's okay, I got a helmet on. I guess I'll just um, talk for a minute and then

okay, I'll I'll blow air, you like, on the road. Well, I'm going real fast. I'll be raining. Okay, and get off the. Yeah, you cut me off. I cut your face. I'm real happy I had this down. Yeah. This I mean, well, we'll have to, you'll

have to go out for a spin and we'll have to put that in here obviously. Yeah. Yeah, actually seems like the mic that I'm using is too hot. I might come back out tomorrow and uh, shoot some more stuff tomorrow. This is just Bluetooth, I think.

there, maxes out like four people, which is not bad, right? And the r but the range is still pry not, yeah, the higher end version of these has has mesh technology, so then like you could lead a group of like 15 people or something like that.

you know and it has much better range okay I got speakers on yeah no oh is it working yeah okay my god oh okay that's really loud oh wow these are pretty good okay that sounds very serviceable from the distance I'm at why don't we talk

about your lens yes please when you were here earlier you saw my camera equipment set up here yeah I picked up this lens and you said you got it for like $4 or something yeah well it was like 15 or something most of my lenses I use um

manual focus lenses my camera brand of choice Panasonic Lumix isn't known for having the best autofocus sure they're getting better but um I've always wanted a 24 to 70 last item for the non- gamer I want to get into gaming okay you know

this is like a terrible time to buy a Nintendo Switch right I didn't buy it though thank you very appreciative yeah you managed to buy the one console that's not powered by AMD semi-custom silicon but sure yeah they got a shout out look at a look at how compact we
