New Test Bench for 2020! Let the benchmarking begin!

Upgrading Hardware and Overcoming Legacy Issues

select is set to legacy if I'm correct here this should now boot off the casino it's showing up see it said hard drive 88 at SX 900 if you saw that for a second it didn't say that before that only showed up once I switched it from UEFI to legacy mode that's something you might have to deal with depending on how old the operating system install is but because the original install was legacy every time it was upgraded it stayed in legacy mode so the motherboard isn't gonna see the fact that that's an OS drive unless you switch the mode to match

A couple things you may notice though when you boot off your hardware your new hardware for the first time windows might do one of two things or might even do both it might do a check disk you can skip it I recommend letting it go the other thing you might see is when you see the windows logo it might go to very similar to when you do your first install and it says please wait getting devices ready what it will do is it will install all the drivers that it needs for the chipset the motherboard all that sort of stuff so that can get up and running because Windows does keep a very good database of those drivers on hand without an internet connection

so that you can get this up and running there's not been a time in the last full shoot as long as I've been doing YouTube now which is going on eight years that I haven't been able to just throw a new motherboard and CPU put in our hard drive in there that has an OS on it and then it didn't work now what I do recommend is not doing this a bunch of times like I've done with my workstation here because it does start to compound weirdness on top of previous weirdness which gives you really extra weirdness

it's not a smart move but if you're just making like I've had my computer three or four years I want to upgrade it give it a shot and see what happens going from Intel to Intel or AMD to AMD seems to be the easiest most trouble-free way of doing it but going from Intel to AMD or vice versa can start to cause a little bit more of a where sometimes it might need driver updates or chipset updates or something to get a lot of features unlocked or full features or just some of the weirdness removed because it is then going to a who knows how old a chipset driver or whatever you know with BIOS and stuff on new motherboards in the agiza Gaeta whatever they call it

it's just always best after you change your hardware like this to go through and update all your drivers just to make sure everything is up-to-date and the windows didn't pull some old driver that might cause problems another thing that you might notice too for some reason is if your hard drives aren't all showing up and this is a whole different video topic

just go to the Start menu type disk management and what will come up there is where it says create and format hard disk partitions and if you have a drive that's missing and not showing up see how these are blue that means they're active drives they have partitions and drive letters assigned you might find a secondary drive sitting here black which means it's not assigned all

you do then is right-click and then you go through sign a drive letter make it the same drive letter as it was before if it's available and then that drive will be up and running another thing that may potentially happen to you is you might over time it won't necessarily happen right away but maybe within a day or two you might see the activate windows indication pop up on the screen all you have to do then is just use the telephone call in number the 800-number walk through the process

it'll even sometimes say you know new hardware may trigger this when it asks you how many times Windows has been installed on the computer say one it'll give you a new install code boom you're up and running it's really simple so I decided to just kind of take you guys along for the ride of getting our test bench up and running now with our new 9900 KS hopefully removing any potential bottlenecks as we move forward with technology

this is now the fourth time this test bench has actually been upgraded since I started this channel and had a test bench my very first test bench was actually a 3770k and as you can see we've gone from there though it was X 299 it was a 59 30 then was a 59 60 X and then it was 8700 ka now it's this what was that 5 whatever it had a lot of upgrades this particular Windows install is now probably on its third round of hardware and as you can see it's working just fine as if we never changed anything anyway

thanks for watching guys and as always we'll see you in the next

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys Jase $0.02 here and we got to prepare our test rig for some upgrades here and we're gonna this is kind of a two birds with one stone video one of the things I'm asked quite often is like hey Jay I got a new motherboard or I got a new CPU can I just throw that stuff in or do I have to reinstall windows well I'm gonna take that opportunity right now to show you I'm gonna throw some new hardware in I'm gonna show you what happens how to get windows back up and running while also taking you along for the ride of our test rig upgrade and some of the reasons why we're doing that so hopefully today you'll learn something maybe I'll learn something it will all learn something or learn nothing featuring the Intel 97 58 6 core processor up to 64 gigabytes of memory and multiple GPU options mag 15 laptop from the electronics is one of the lightest production and gaming notebooks on the market due to its magnesium lightweight chassis and 15.6 inch 144 hertz IPS monitor the mag 15 weighs in at just 4 pounds while the 94 watt hour battery provides hours of use on a single charge to see the full spec list of the mag 15 from electronics and to see their complete lineup of laptops and notebooks click the sponsor link in the description below so I'm just showing you here that the fact that the system is up and running we're at the desktop obviously performance this is our 8700 K I talked recently in a video about why we choose the parts we choose why I'm gonna be upgrading this to a 90 90 100 KS because we want to make sure that as graphics cards get faster and you stuff potentially coming out next year that we don't want to introduce any bottlenecks with our CPU 8700 K at 5 gigs although has been great it is when we look at charge and stuff now we're seeing that there is I have a few percent to be gained in terms of like 2080 TI's or overclocked when it comes to performance telling us that the CPU does indeed pose a slight bottleneck and before that becomes a problem moving forward I'd rather handle it now before we have the crunch of new graphics cards coming potentially in 2020 and then having to deal with oh no we got to upgrade our test rig before we could do all these tests and I'm not speaking in any sort of insider knowledge that nut something's new something news coming for 2020 with graphics cards it's just August of 2018 is when the touring architecture launch from Nvidia all of 2019 they focused on their low range and so it's only presumable then in 2020 a new high-end card is gonna be coming I suspect april-ish if I had to make a guess because they like to do stuff around GTX and GTX are GDC game developers conference and graphics technology conference I think is with DTC central or whatever so everything's up and running here so I just want to kind of show you that we are activated doesn't say please activate windows that's the the thing you might notice the most is if you change out your hardware and everything's up and running it might make you reactivate windows and it's pretty easy to get around that but anyway so we're go ahead and shut her down and start tearing her down now the system that we have here like I said 8700 K running on a Maximus 10 formula which is definitely overkill for a test rig very dusty though because it's an open-air test bench but one of the reasons why we're also doing this too is we did this not too long ago actually well we changed out these tubes cuz they were all died in nasty and actually when we did the when we did this video when we tested the 5700 XC liquid devil from power color this was in its own standalone loop that we dyed purple we dyed this purple at the same time depending on the calibration of your monitor and its color accuracy you may or may not see that this is a very magenta color very much more red than purple because it looks like all of the blue dye sort of collected in this tube right here and stuck together so I squeezed it really hard you can see it moves around in there fun fact we use the Mayhem's blue dye or no of take the back we use the Mayhem's red dye and we use the primo chill blue dye this is the second time we've had primo chill dyed do this so I'm not gonna be using that die anymore so anyway this is one reason why we're doing this I might change the block out because the blocks looking kinda yeah the block has seen better days look at that it's not overheating though this is this more of an aesthetic thing anyway we've had a lot of people asked - Jay what test route bench is that that's pretty cool this is actually the first revision of the primo chilled wet bench it's designed for water cooling that's why I was able to fit a 360 rad back here in the back they now have a newer version of this which apparently is a lot more a lot more better I don't know I haven't personally used it so I can't say if that's true or not so I've got as much of the red coolant out as I could get just by gravity so what I'm gonna do now actually is I'm gonna close the loop back off and I'm gonna ah min that's died alright anyway what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to continue to run the loop through it with another power supply to power the pump while I continue to fill this with distilled water and then have this valve just barely cracked so some of the water can come out but we want to flush as much as the right out as possible now distilled water is great for this I'll probably be using purified water as well from our a water cooler just because it will be swapping it back out for you quickly but we're gonna fill the loop back up see how red that turn because that's stuff that's been sitting in the radiator it was sitting in the blocks and stuff what we do now is we just sort of crack that Valve like that where that starts to go down so what's happening is some of it's making its way out of there some of it's made way or some of it's making its way back through the loop I'm running it you just continue to replace this water until it comes out clear so you'll notice over time this is gonna get more and more clear and then keep an eye on your catch can or catch jug whatever you want to call it because there's there have been times I was just doing this not paying attention to where it got all the way to the top and the overflowed now a lot of people would be like well Jay you should just do like a full drain like this and then just fill it back up to the top I thought it had better results if I just let it slowly kind of split the flow alright so now that all the clear fluid is in there you can get a really good idea what I was talking about that's all the blue dye the blue dye stuck and if I was sees like a bottle brush cleaner it would all break loose and I'd still be able to use this tube which I'm still gonna have to use this tube right now because you know one thing you should always do before you start a project make sure you have all the materials you need to complete it and I just realize I don't have any of this size tubing here I've got plenty of rigid you got plenty ptg acrylic metal tubes but this is a test bench something we need to be able to pop the CPU block off because if I wanted to do like testing of a i/o we pop this off its like the a i/o on this just sits to the side and I can't do that with rigid tubing so we're going to do now is we're just gonna move forward because I can come back and replace these tubes later I am gonna replace the block though this block is seen some better days this is probably the thing I dislike most about this particular test bench as it uses these studs that stick up which makes placing the motherboard down super easy so how to put screws down through the holes but the problem is motherboards nowadays a lot of them having these covers and stuff make it very difficult to get these little aluminum nuts on there and so it this one was only being held down in a couple of locations which is why it had two nuts on there because I didn't want to lose them but the more like see that one down in there it's like all good alike thank God it's knurled because if it wasn't I wouldn't be able to turn this like this so the z3 90 dark motherboard from EVGA is what we were using for this test rig I'm a I really like the simplicity of PGA's BIOS I'm really comfortable with it I've used it for years skunkworks has an EVGA board in it currently this board is kind of unique because it's designed by kingpin it comes with its own little like test bed use those those big long brass standoffs right there these guys and then you can play some motherboard on it and then it gives you a pin out like layout of the motherboard to like you can't really see with EVGA you know static bag but it's pretty neat if you want to build a test bench or use this thing for overclocking and playing around it's not new it's been out for a while I've used it in one build for a friend we really liked it the CPU is rotated the memory is rotated with it because the idea here is that it's got the power and the 24 pin much closer together making for a cleaner power delivery since this is the dark board I'm gonna be using the ek supremacy or a velocity block I was at supremacy to that's what they were called for longest time I'm using a black one because I figured that'll look good on here let's see please remove before use they'll make them clear anymore cuz the only times I've installed blocks with that sitting on there because I'm not going straight to X 299 like I normally do I don't have to change the jet plate which would be nice first time in forever far the first time in forever I have two daughters leave me alone no because EVGA is like we don't want none of that RGB nonsense I said to tuck this wire away because there's no RGB header on this motherboard I'm ok with that it's a test bench why do we need our D be honest as bench we don't just disagreed every card what I can hear you over the sound of scratching the back and voila that looks really good you can see now why they put the two 8-pin EPS next to the 24 pin that's a lot neater although these cables have all been kind of bent all over creation over time they also moved the CPU fan headers right next to it too so that's in there nice and clean got our PCI Express cables there so what I'm gonna do now is I'm gonna put in the RAM but I guess I'm not gonna I don't think I've ever used these guys I figured I would embrace the gold all over the motherboard and put in some more cold tried NZ royal which the only other system they've been using the golden is my gold build inside the studio which is being replaced with a new workstation it's like this motherboard is like super industrial and then it's just like sprinkling a little like but it's all pretty on there but I'm gonna change out this block so to do that now I need to drain the loop again get all the air out of here or all the water out of here and then just hook these two fittings up to this block here once we do that then I can show you what happens when you boot up an operating system that's on a drive that had previous hardware connected to it and how Windows handles that so before we put everything up we need to go into the BIOS and make sure that our drive with our operating system is set to our main boot drive so power on and yeah I cut myself I believe that I cut myself right at the end it's always the knuckle so I take a little longer on its first post because it's training the memory it's kind of identifying all the hardware and there we go did you hear that beep one of the best things my EVGA motherboards is they have a speaker on the motherboard so you actually get beeps there it is right there see it's soldered underneath the very bottom PCI Express slot ebj is like we love the BIOS beeps cuz you'll have to look at it be like okay what code we don't know you just hear the beep you know that you've made it past post or in my ex $2.99 system like skunkworks it beeps also on every USB device initialization I've got a lot of USB so goes pppp pppp pppp DP DP D beep anyway CPU memory of change you want in your setup yes so I'm just gonna enter the setup running at 28 C so we know our pump and everything's work in multiplier control or a new manual everything's set to 50 already that's because it is a KS so everything is already set to all all cor 50 the only thing I usually do with my CPU is I go zero on the ratio ATX ratio offset that's just an Intel thing because AVX instructions are Intel we are going to do voltage control leave all that automatic I'll go to my memory and I'll switch that to XMP profile see the configuration you want to see if both our drive show up unfortunately only one of them are so I think I might have accidentally unplugged the SATA cable so there's our SATA drive our SX 900 pretty old 256 gigs as you can see it's just a test bench I have all of my games on an actual spinning drive that we do our testing with the way I did it is enough had to do this in the past before is unplug the hard drive and a lot of people recommend unplugging the drives you don't want Windows installed on anyway if you're gonna do an installation and then I move the SATA port for the SSD so what I'm gonna do now also is under boot because this is such an old installation it's actually a legacy install not a UEFI install so the boot mode select is set to legacy if I'm correct here this should now boot off the casino it's showing up see it said hard drive 88 at SX 900 if you saw that for a second it didn't say that before that only showed up once I switched it from UEFI to legacy mode that's something you might have to deal with depending on how old the operating system install is but because the original install was legacy every time it was upgraded it stayed in legacy mode so the motherboard isn't gonna see the fact that

like we love the BIOS beeps cuz you'll have to look at it be like okay what code we don't know you just hear the beep you know that you've made it past post or in my ex $2.99 system like skunkworks it beeps also on every USB device initialization I've got a lot of USB so goes pppp pppp pppp DP DP D beep anyway CPU memory of change you want in your setup yes so I'm just gonna enter the setup running at 28 C so we know our pump and everything's work in multiplier control or a new manual everything's set to 50 already that's because it is a KS so everything is already set to all all cor 50 the only thing I usually do with my CPU is I go zero on the ratio ATX ratio offset that's just an Intel thing because AVX instructions are Intel we are going to do voltage control leave all that automatic I'll go to my memory and I'll switch that to XMP profile see the configuration you want to see if both our drive show up unfortunately only one of them are so I think I might have accidentally unplugged the SATA cable so there's our SATA drive our SX 900 pretty old 256 gigs as you can see it's just a test bench I have all of my games on an actual spinning drive that we do our testing with the way I did it is enough had to do this in the past before is unplug the hard drive and a lot of people recommend unplugging the drives you don't want Windows installed on anyway if you're gonna do an installation and then I move the SATA port for the SSD so what I'm gonna do now also is under boot because this is such an old installation it's actually a legacy install not a UEFI install so the boot mode select is set to legacy if I'm correct here this should now boot off the casino it's showing up see it said hard drive 88 at SX 900 if you saw that for a second it didn't say that before that only showed up once I switched it from UEFI to legacy mode that's something you might have to deal with depending on how old the operating system install is but because the original install was legacy every time it was upgraded it stayed in legacy mode so the motherboard isn't gonna see the fact that that's an OS drive unless you switch the mode to match so a couple things you may notice though when you boot off your hardware your new hardware for the first time windows might do one of two things or might even do both it might do a check disk you can skip it I recommend letting it go the other thing you might see is when you see the windows logo it might go to very similar to when you do your first install and it says please wait getting devices ready what it will do is it will install all the drivers that it needs for the chipset the motherboard all that sort of stuff so that can get up and running because Windows does keep a very good database of those drivers on hand without an internet connection so that you can get this up and running there's not been a time in the last full shoot as long as I've been doing YouTube now which is going on eight years that I haven't been able to just throw a new motherboard and CPU put in our hard drive in there that has an OS on it and then it didn't work now what I do recommend is not doing this a bunch of times like I've done with my workstation here because it does start to compound weirdness on top of previous weirdness which gives you really extra weirdness it's not a smart move but if you're just making like I've had my computer three or four years I want to upgrade it give it a shot and see what happens going from Intel to Intel or AMD to AMD seems to be the easiest most trouble-free way of doing it but going from Intel to AMD or vice versa can start to cause a little bit more of a where sometimes it might need driver updates or chipset updates or something to get a lot of features unlocked or full features or just some of the weirdness removed because it is then going to a who knows how old a chipset driver or whatever you know with BIOS and stuff on new motherboards in the agiza Gaeta whatever they call it it's just always best after you change your hardware like this to go through and update all your drivers just to make sure everything is up-to-date and the windows didn't pull some old driver that might cause problems the other thing that you might notice too for some reason is if your hard drives aren't all showing up and this is a whole different video topic just go to the Start menu type disk management and what will come up there is where it says create and format hard disk partitions and if you have a drive that's missing and not showing up see how these are blue that means they're active drives they have partitions and drive letters assigned you might find a secondary drive sitting here black which means it's not assigned all you do then is right-click and then you go through a sign a drive letter make it the same drive letter as it was before if it's available and then that drive will be up and running so the other thing that may potentially happen to you is you might over time it won't necessarily happen right away but maybe within a day or two you might see the activate windows indication pop up on the screen all you have to do then is just use the telephone call in number the 800-number walk through the process it'll even sometimes say you know new hardware may trigger this when it asks you how many times Windows has been installed on the computer say one it'll give you a new install code boom you're up and running it's really simple so I decided to just kind of take you guys along for the ride of getting our test bench up and running now with our new 9900 KS hopefully removing any potential bottlenecks as we move forward with technology this is now the fourth time this test bench has actually been upgraded since I started this channel and had a test bench my very first test bench was actually a 3770k and as you can see we've gone from there though it was X 299 it was a 59 30 then was a 59 60 X and then it was 8700 ka now it's this what was that 5 whatever it had a lot of upgrades this particular Windows install is now probably on its third round of hardware and as you can see it's working just fine as if we never changed anything anyway thanks for watching guys and as always we'll see you in the next\n"
