Life is full of surprises - AMD $5,000 Ultimate Tech Upgrade

Finally, it's AMD ultimate tech upgrade time, but for some reason, they wouldn't tell me where we're going. Oh. I still don't see why all this was necessary. Oh, okay. This is by Garage. Did you guys get me a tech upgrade? What? You get enough upgrades, it's my turn. What Linus doesn't know is that I'm donating all of AMD's money. There we go, $5,000. Thank you, AMD.

What I'm gonna do instead is use Linus's money. He never buys me stuff. He always buys himself stuff, so here's my chance. This looks like a lot more than $5,000. Well, this way I come into helping. I'm going to help you to do the shopping part where I'm really good at. You're kidding me, Dennis was involved? Well, I don't know much at this point, but I

do know that this AMD ultimate tech upgrade is going to be completely off the rails. And I guess I'm here for it. We're back and thrilled to be working with AMD for another episode of AMD ultimate tech upgrade. To celebrate the launch of their new radion RX 7600 GPU, they want to give a couple of them away to some lucky viewers. Head on over to our

Twitter to enter the giveaway for a chance to win one of the two AMD radion RX 7600 GPUs that are up for grabs. We're going to have that down below. Thanks again to AMD for sponsoring this series. First order of business is to get all this stuff in the side. Okay. What the chum way? What are you talking about? No, no, no, no, no, no, we're

going to roll the whole thing. Oh my gosh. No, no, you're not. Let's go. That's not going to fit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Trust me when I say it'll fit. Okay. Well, I'm going to take this load in first. I'm going to need some help. You don't deserve help. I deserve. I'm sick. Okay. It's my wheel on. Okay. That's enough wheels. Well, how many things have

we broken already? I don't even remember half the stuff I got. Jake helped me pick a bunch of it. Oh good. Jake was involved. So I'm sure it's on budget. Jake's budget. You're going to abandon the key caps that your children picked out for you. I'm sorry, but made for you. Look, it's wearing out. And it's actually not just the key caps. The problem is that

when I type on the keys, they don't register anymore. Oh, yeah. I'm actually really sad to lose this too, because I really like the wrist rest. The heck are there so many sets? Okay, because there wasn't one set that had actually weight. I don't know. These look exactly the same. They do. Wait. Do you just have standard packaging? No, that says 10 and this says 15.

But here's my keyboard. The PBT is, I don't know what the 10 and 15 are. Okay. Keycrankade 10. Why do you have two keyboards? Why? Why? Yeah, why do I have two keyboards? It's the knob version. Must be for me. Nives. Yeah, we need kitchen knives. Our sock. We've had them for 20 years. What? 20 years? And they don't cut things anymore. Not properly. My love,

we haven't even been together for 20 years. Whatever. Feels like it. Yeah. Look, I finally got one of these. That's isn't broken. What is this weird picture? I don't know. Is it for disciplining children if they don't dance well enough? Okay, let's try. No, hey, ow. Okay, that was my hip and not my butt. So it works. Okay, it was a $2 brush. I know, but

you're making me feel like I don't normally buy you things. You don't normally buy me things. I got wireless charging pads for the kitchen for my phone. Okay. Yeah, let's take those now. Oh, man. I'm so excited to be replacing that. Look at it. I don't think we've ever cleaned this. No, I don't. And it's missing knives. This is my aunt's fault. All our steak knives

have the tips broken off because she uses them to jam stuff into the garbage. Love you, Auntie, but please don't do that with the new ones. I'm surprised you ended up with ankles. I don't know any better. The accounts and people are super into knives. Yeah, sorry, our slash knives. They would be very disappointed in me, but I were basic like that. Yeah. And I know

you wanted self sharpening, but Jake says those are a terrible idea. So we got a sharpener. One that doesn't change the shape of your blade. That's not going to fit. That's what she said. Oh, yeah, it hurts. Right? Actually, this is really weird. Is it supposed to go this way? Or this way? This way? Yeah. But now you can't even like, I know. But then that's

all. Okay. Let's see. This is what happens when you get Jake's help. He's well intentioned. I got wireless chargers. This is one different. That's a power bank. Oh, a thing is just going to sit here all the time. Yes. How many phones are you planning to have charging while you're cooking? No, not. Okay, I want one before over there so that when I'm sitting on a

couch reading or doing whatever, I have a charger. How do you get a read on your phone with a wireless charger? No, you're not. Eventually we'll get a console table. Maybe we can put it here. No one is going to use that. I promise you. What? I would use it. No one is going to use that. Okay, fine. Then you have to wire wire that somehow.

Your idea was just to have a cable. How are you going to have a cable? No, my eyes. My idea was to charge your phone at night and then use it throughout the day. Yeah, but my phone dies. And that's why I got a power bank. You got a new phone. What? Always my upgrade. Yeah, that's true. But I didn't have it yet when I bumped.

How about we put it on this one? Okay, that's fine. I'm okay with that. Okay. I thought we were going to do the phone first. Oh, no, let's do a side table first. It's aimed at ultimate tech upgrade. You don't like it, do you? Yeah, you know what? No. If you like it, then I love it. Well, now I don't know. I know what we need.

LTT screwdriver twins. Yes. LTTstore.com. You know, there's a screwdriver right there. You're using your hands. To get it started, it's a good thing. You're screwing it by hand. How many times have I told you? You can't use your hands for that. It's better. Please stop. Please. What? The screwdriver paid for this house. I will use it. I will. But it's easier to line it up with

your hands. We're still working on her screwing technique. It's not my tech, but it's a problem. Remember, folks, if your marriage can survive assembling furniture together, you're good to go. I mean, yeah, like if she likes it, then I'm fine with that. Okay. I think that was a success. My phone? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Oh, it's a Gallic CS23. Yeah. Really? You chose that? I really think

this is probably a mistake. Okay. Should I return it? This is never a mistake. At least you don't have expensive taste in person. Yes. This looks very alley express. It is not. Really? Yeah. Well, it doesn't look expensive. I mean, I think it was $200. And that's how it comes packaged. Are you fucking kidding me? But now you can't make fun of me anymore. Okay. I

got a purse. Oh, yeah. I should show you her old purse. This is what she's been using as a purse. All right. Okay. But the real trick is, does it fit my phone? No. No. Okay. Maybe I am keeping this out. I'm so not ultra-versed. You're going to be so unhappy with such a tiny phone. It fits. I'll stretch it out. Oh, yeah. It did. Wow.

That didn't take long. Oh, that is really disappointing. This snap just came right off. Yeah. How embarrassing. Return pile. Oh, man. Should we start getting into the tech stuff? That would probably be a good idea. AMD did sponsor this video sort of simple house where desk monitor stand riser with the just what you're doing. This looks like crap. Who picked this? I did. Oh, I assumed

it was Jake again. Let's see if you guys at least managed to pick a cool laptop. You picked a Chromebook. Yeah. You know why? It's actually not for me. It's for the kids. For the next grade, she's going into. She needs a Chromebook. So that's why I picked a Chromebook. Wow. This thing is way overkill for school. Rise in five with Vega graphics. So you'll actually

be able to... Isn't Steam on Chrome all of a sudden? You'll actually be able to game on this thing, Akeg's RAM, 128x storage. That's lots though. Nothing will actually be loaded onto the machine itself. And then a 56 watt hour battery, which on an efficient processor like this is going to be more than all day. Plastic top, but it does have a metal bottom, meaning the

stiffness of it is actually quite solid. It's funny because in the past, AMD only used to get kind of the lower end designs from the big OEMs, but that just doesn't seem to be the case anymore. This is a really nice chassis. Can I see how heavy it is? Well, that's not bad. It's not light. Yeah, but it's not bad. It's got a big fat battery

in it, so like what do you want? Yeah. It even has IO, MicroSD slot, headphone jack, USB-A2 USB-C's, both of which are charging compatible and HDMI port. Awesome. Should we open my keyboard? Not the wavy one. So this is going in the return file. Look, I'm not the one putting things in the return file now. I'm surprised they didn't get you a 10 keyless and then

a separate numpad. No, I don't want a separate numpad. Oh, that's the new hotness. Okay, I don't know. Not the new hotness. Take your old hotness. Yeah. I don't like that the things are round. So maybe the replacement keys that we got. Hopefully are not round. I like it. It's pretty. All right. Yeah. Are you going to at least still use the kids escape key? You

know they love you, right? Yes, I do. I can. And you know, I helped them make it and I love you, right? Yeah. I know. I was part of that video. I was there. But we can also use it for one of their keyboard downstairs. Okay. Okay. You're supposed to be in the face. No, you already did that. Okay. I need new runners. What are you

running from? So these are the my old lady or thought of runners. And you got two pairs of the same shoe. Yes. Okay. Says the person who got six pairs of the same shoe for Babin Tune. That's an athletic shoe. I go running. What are you talking about? That's why you went running yesterday. So today you could say I go running. Wow. This is very fake

looking. Dennis liked it. Dennis liked it. Oh, well, then. No, it doesn't go up there. What? No. Doesn't go up there yet. Did you really get two of the exact same painting? Bon. What? I'm pretty sure that's a decor sin. Is it? Dennis was with me. He approved. How much for these? How much do you think they were? 130. Oh, no. Are you kidding me right

now? Yeah, I felt really bad about these ones. She's actually tearing up. This is how I can tell. But this is trouble. This is not what I normally would do. Okay, just they were $299 each. Yeah, I know. It's brutal. It's totally brutal. I could just use this as a canvas. Oh my god. Oh, oh. I'll read you. I need some floor time. Do we need

to start talking about this orter thing? What is this? And why are there so many pieces of it? So you need to make space for me out in your workshop. What? You have a workshop. No, she converted our living room to a craft room. That's your craft room. Right. Yeah, it's not a workshop. I need space in the workshop. Whoa. Our entire living room from here

to all of this, David, you got to come in here. Okay. Of this, it is your craft. Yeah, that I have work people here every Friday night to craft with. So it's a work thing. Good. Yeah. Then it's a workshop. No, there are fumes. There's fumes. It's a laser cutter. So it's and engraver. Okay. And it apparently requires assembly. I don't know. I don't know anything

about these. This is an activity to learn. This goes with the wall of flowers, the Lego flowers, you know, because you don't find me real flowers or real birds. So I get one. So I guess once again, I'm pretty sure I'm the one who got you that one. You did get me that one. Yeah. Yeah. But here's the bird. So then I'm not allowed. You didn't

even upgrade your monitor. No, I like my monitor. Why? Well, it's only 75 hertz though. So it's amazing how the meta kind of changes. For a while, these monitor stands were a thing. And then now everyone's got the arms. I don't even think these will go through the spaces. Oh, balls. Okay. I might have a solution to this. Oh, who's the border now? Don't mind me.

Just back from my perfectly organized garage. Okay. Okay. What do you think? This monitor falls down. But you said you have a bigger one downstairs, I guess. Yeah, I do. Oh my gosh. You know, usually, these come come with instructions on which piece goes where, but this one really does not. Where do you want the monitor? That's really far away. I wanted it to be like

tucked back. See, this won't bend anymore. So that's as far back as it goes. Yeah, it's really not as flexible as I would like it to be. I mean, it's still an upgrade because you get all this space under it back. All right. We're going to put this piece up first. Hello. Oh, what, what are you doing? What? What? Well, you have to take it off

the back. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, stop, stop. What? You take it off a little piece out of time. Like, you're bending it. You got to take it off a bit more. I'm working on it. Just one sec. So, you're bending it. Okay. Debrand be watching this like. Oh, strong independent woman. I can do this myself. Okay. And I helped. Wait, what are these

for? For above there. It's decorative. These should go up before the vinyls. Okay. Oh, that was close. Yep. I got this. This is one of the few classic man duties that I'm actually pretty practiced at. I don't know. He hung the pictures in the hallway and they're all about an inch higher than I had requested they all be. What percentage of the shareholders and directors of

the company is precariously purchased on a table right now? Crap. What happened? Well, that doesn't seem to be a stud. Even though this thing claims, there's studs all over the place here. Well, there's an extra hole here. That is a very happy shelf right now. Happy shelf? Yeah. It's, uh, come on out of the wall like this. I'm going to open this crappy desk monitor. Yeah,

because that's where I keep my keyboards and my mouse. Well, no, I'm a big dumb idiot. And I like my keyboard and mouse in there. Can't even charge the Apple mouse like that. Do you think you could have picked more things that need to be assembled? Why? What's wrong? This thing is crap. I really don't know if I even want to build it. Look at it.

It goes here. Does that appeal to you? Does that shine in sparkle? Um, no, yeah, let's leave it. Yeah. This return pile is something else. Let's leave on. Did you check and make sure this is going to, whoa, is everything okay? Oh, yeah. Okay. Did you check and make sure this is going to fit under the desk? Just raise it like a centimeter. Yep. Now push.

There you go. And you thought we were going to make candles today? Um, well, not this is serious. Not necessarily today. Did you actually ask for all these things from you, greener? Are they just trying to show off the breads of their type C dongle catalog? No, I asked for some of it. I don't know why we're asking for so many though. But maybe I did.

I don't remember. This was a long time ago. Nice you, greener fly pro connect to wireless headphones to any headphone jack. Oh, yeah. Instead of buying all these things and whatever. I was actually going to take you on a trip. Oh, so that's why there's a bunch of trouble is that's what I thought about the filming schedule and all that stuff and all that stuff. I

got it. So basically our whole life. Yeah. They got you a headphone stand, but they got you like the cheapest crappiest headphone stand. No, this one's my fault. Just like the desk thing. Jekid buys it against it. But I was like, this looks fine. No, it really doesn't. It doesn't even stay together permanently. You can add that to the pile. More kitchen accessories. Oh, yeah. This

is for that pot we bought from the liquidation place that burns our handle this time. I love this. Okay. So we've got the sick Chromebook. Hey, thanks AMD. We've got all the furniture, the monitor are in the room. But this. This is what's exciting. Well, let me show you. We won't burn our hands. This is amazing. Never again. Will this cheap Kaiser Hoff pot burn my

wife's dainty hands? Yes. Success. This is kind of coming together. Hey, not bad. How often do you use these headphones? Like if you're working in here and I'm working here and we're both like on a call. I don't want to bother you. Okay. All right. Maybe I'll just have to find a better place to mount this. Like maybe if I mounted it like under here or

something like that. Yeah, that would be nice because right now the cable gets in the way. Okay. And are you sure you want battery powered lamps? They're not battery powered. They're USB. Well, okay. They're rechargeable battery powered, but they're USB. One day I will get real birds for real. You have cats. How do you like the keyboard? I'm used to so much more pressure to push

side and just be sad when I look at your side. Man, my side looks kind of bland. Now. Yeah. Now it does. Well, okay. Except that you have the wall of you two plaques. I mean, those are our YouTube plaques on your wall. Yeah. I know, right? I need to get more plaques. Oh, you know what? I haven't put up yet. Gold billy billy. But should

it go here right next to the other billy billy or is that not random enough? Should. Should it go maybe here or it could start going that way? We just start going that way. Okay. More billy more more plaques. Let's go subscribe to LMG clips. Get another gold one for the craft space. I got a rug. Oh, for how often you spill glass. I'm really just

not sure. Okay. Stained glass is a temporary hobby. A temporary right now. Hobby. Okay. Well, we don't have to open it. No, let's go. Let's go. I think we should see what it looks like so that we know if we have to return it or not. Wait, wait, wait. Before you do that, I don't know if I like this rug. Okay. I'm not going to be

responsible for putting another thing in the return pile. I think it's good enough. Okay. All right. All right. Let's do it. Yeah. You're good. You're good. You're good. And we're under. She's trying really hard to put a splash of color in her life in this room and it's killing her inside. I think. Well, no, it just doesn't go. I mean, hey, look, I just added a

splash of color in there and it looks great. Between the things we couldn't find and the things that ended up in the return pile, this has been quite the day. Okay. So you have a dress. Okay. Come on over. Let's see it. Okay. Wow. That's really great. Do you like it? Yeah. It's awesome. It sounded super sarcastic. Okay. It's pretty clear. It's going in the return

pile. I mean, what? From the back is pretty good. It was supposed to be so we could go on a date together. Okay. Well, we can go on a date and we can buy you a new dress. How about that? Okay. All right. Oh, because the whole idea was I just wanted to spend time with you. No, I don't want to. So rude. Shout out D

brand. Thanks for sending over this thing for the wrong phone. Okay. No, it's for the right phone. They sent us the right thing. We bought the wrong phone. And there it is. Grip case matching my car. Wait, I don't even need to put your ordering ink for you. Still having. It's agitating the ink. Yeah, I know. This is for when it runs out. It's already I

didn't print very many photos. And it's already at like a quarter. Man, the float plane exclusive for this is going to be long. Long and fainty. What? I'll see you over there. Floplane.com. Now we just need to figure out where the devil. This is going to live. Yeah. I propose here. It does not fit up there. I mean, anything fits. No, look, look, no, no, look

at that. That's terrible. Okay, just put it wherever you want it. And the workshop. Yeah, I'm putting my blindfold back on. Okay, you realize I don't actually have that much desk space in this area, right? Okay, but you have enough for this. It's filled with junk right now. Junk. See if it can go right in that corner and we move these litter boxes and stuff. It's

perfect. It goes right there. And you get to use it too. Or you can build me a little shelf and I can put it in there. And then when I want to use it, I pull it out. Fine. Okay. Compromise. Teamwork. Yeah. I like it. Yeah, this is great. Go AMD. Usually we check out more desktopy stuff like there are Ryzen 7000 series processors, including the

7800X3D, which is basically the king when it comes to gaming these days or there are radion 7000 series GPUs. But today we were more mobile focused and spending time together focused. See you at the next one. We'll have links to a bunch of AMD's great technology down below.
