Podcast #606 - A Happy after Thanksgiving Show!

We've got 3060ti review coverage (no you cannot have one - Nvidia smacks you like Mango from SNL - no touch

Zen 3 laptop clocks boosting vs Intel (or as I like to call it, 11 seconds of Zen)

Better performance coming for QLC hopefully!

Maybe don't be fooled by the siren song of a $140 X570 board

Additional review for the H115i Capellix AIO from Corsair

*PAUSE* for the review on the Lian Li Lancool 215, you'll have to tune in next week for the Full Metal Kent host...

Podcast #605 - The uncut cut

Weighing in at just shy of 3 hours here, because it was Red GPU Review Day.  We discuss our review of the RX6000 series, Nvidia earnings, a Microsoft security chip, a brief history of Intel vs AMD, lack of being able to buy much of anything, a good update to Starwars Squadrons and plenty more. Oh, and there's a review of a really white and weighty be quiet! case.

I mean, what are you doing over the next 3 hours anyway?

Josh is killed by Sebastian at least twice, we're accuse...

Podcast #604 - Back On The Air Again

It's good to be back, amiright?  We spend these two hours covering the tech ground so you don't have to.  Ryzen 5000 performance discussion, and which one is right for you?   The Apple M1 SoC appears to be fast and interesting.   And finally, there's a bit of AMD 6000 performance chatter, and some Raspberry Pi-in-a-keyboard talk before we get into a deep discussion on PC case photography. 

Yep, posing as a review for the Fractal Design Meshify 2, there...

Thanks for the support

Just a quick note to remind you all that we have been taking a break for a week and should be back on the air soon.  Also that we really appreciate your backing here, as this a really important part of what is keeping our PC Per news and reviews outlet going.  Thanks so much for that!

Also in "case" you haven't seen it yet,  be sure to check out our latest review of the new Fractal Meshify 2, it's got all that FD goodness with better front airflow.  2020-11-11 19:49:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Podcast #603 - AMD RX6K Take, RTX 3070 Review + More!!

This is the infamously(?) uncut out-of-order live version.  

Includes a puppy update from Josh, then suddenly in a swerv-a-lichous way he takes the show in an unexpected direction where we discuss the AMD Xilinx acquisition and their news-worthy quarterly numbers.  AAAAND BAM -  we're back talking 'bout the RX6000's and what AMD had to say during their event.  Good stuff to praise, tech to point at, and things to question, as per usual.

Onward with ...

Ad Break Nonsense

So after the stream ended we realized that we had forgotten to create a throw-to sponsor, throw-back to show transition.  We were discussing pretending how to do it when Sebastian suggested that we actually record it now - but by then the hilarity was flowing strongly and it was difficult to ... ah ... bring it back down. 

We put this out there for your amusement because, we care.

$podcast=601; $podcast++; echo $podcast;

Hey hey, uncut version of the #602 Podcast for your enjoyment.   While we were making this episode, the common thought was that we might be able to salvage like 30 minutes of actual content.  But nay nay!  Turns out, there was actual useful information hidden between the moments of levity!!  

Ultimately, the viewers - you - will decide.

Normally I would say this is the ... fuller cut, the one that will not let you leave the table hungry.  *BUT* I woul...

Podcast #601. Because we can - nay - we must.

As the title implies, it was a difficult show to follow after #600, but we did.  We call this one: Podcast #601.  

There's the Joshtekk burger update of course (but you might get more hungry watching the edited version), discussion of the Ryzen 5000 launches (both CPU and GPU - 5k & 6k versions - coincidence?!  I doubt it!), the supa fast WD Black SN850 PCIe NVME SSD, quick reviews of the latest Corsair KATAR slipstream mouse, Samsung SD Pro SD cards, and the be quiet...

Podcast #600. Soon is Now. Barely Touched.

The heights so rarely reached, behold PCPer Podcast #600.  Nary a remaining hair out of place.  Or pipe.

Join us here as we recount some of our reviews on the nice Corsair K100 keyboard, Crucial "feels-good-in-the-hand" portable storage, UEFI hacks that can also touch the Mac, and - WHAT!? - we talk about Nvidia things like the 3070 delay and how you won't get your new 80 / 90 GPU until 2021.   Also, MSI is probably sorry they got caught maybe?  SK Hynix(?) is t...

When will the fabled #600 be available?

Someone asked, so I thought it would be of general interest as to what the answer was:

Very soon.  Did you ever see the Grinch that stole Christmas?  Remember when he was taking the tree away because there was a light out on one side?  Yeah, that's what happened to the podcast.  There's a light out on one side, and we're repairing it.  (otherwise known as some personal information was accidentally broadcast live, and we have to find and blur it first)

Podcast #599 - Part 2: The Final Conflict.

There was Podcast-interruptus about 90% of the way through.  This is the rest of that. 

Bad X300 Drive!  Bad Drive!  See what you did?  And zucchini's.  And Josh's bush.  Yes, all that and 29 minutes more.

Podcast #599. Uncut. The way you like it. Pt 1

There's tech talk, there's back talk, and then there's walking the talk.  Just pointing that out, not saying we did any of that.  Except talk over each-other sometimes.

We go over a few points on Nvidia's "capgate", discuss yet more AMD rumors & upcoming AGESA patches, point at the Sabrent Gen4 SSD, discuss how the Xbox Series X handles older titles, and SPAAACE Combat Games!  

Also, there might be a few ... probably to...

Podcast Uncut. #598. Three Hours.

Consider yourself warned.  Oh, it's not three hours - pfssssh!  It's 3 hours and 13 minutes.  There was some Allyn added during the post show so that we could hit the "Extended Cut" metrics.  Plenty of topics though, Nvidia 3090 launch, Samsung 980 PRO PCI-E 4.0 SSD, ARM servers, AMD 6k discussion, and Microsoft buys Epic - NO NO!  I mean Microsoft buys Bethesda, yeah that's it.

There's an interlude within the edited version of the podcast that's fun, I've asked Sebastian if he'd make a version of it for all you here.  


Thanks everyone for helping us stay on the air, have a great day!

Uncut & Raw. PC Perspective Podcast #597 - RTX 3080 Review time, AMD Pics, ARM and Apple

 Enjoy the long discussion of the RTX 3080 Review, some fun with the renders of the AMD RX 6000, the PS5 Pricing.  With some Arm acquisition and a brief flyby of the Apple announcements.


9/9 Podcast #596 Uncut

More #596v2.  More Nvidia.  More AMD. More Bikes.  We also welcome back during the "after-the-show-show" - for Patreon member viewing only after the live stream - Allyn, former storage editor for PCPer!  It's a fun time.

9/2 Podcast #595 Uncut

You haven't even seem my final form!

This is getting a bit better and finally qualifies as being PCPer Podcast-like.  The better layout is back, we've switched to Skype for this call, Sebastian is gluing VM's together and we're having a grand time talking the tech of today.

8/26 Live Tech Talk Stream

Or was it a Live Talk Tech Stream?  Live streaming Talk on Tech?  

Getting a tiny bit closer, but still not up to the "more-better" quality of past PCPer Podcast standards. Fun and enjoyable all the same!  Will remain unlisted and for Patreon members only though.

Special feature:  "Out-of-Apple-Spec-Ears" during the picks of the week.

Not a Podcast. 8/19/20

Still not a PCPer Podcast.  Probably.  And there's plenty of video broadcast difficulties to go around, but we percevered.

 For reasons that will be likely be obvious, probably to remain unlisted and for you Patreon folks only.  And for those in the world that suffered through it live.  Like the people *on* the video. Heh.

A Stream. A Chat of Tech. For the Tech.

Originally aired 8/7/20.  Basically, let's try this video thing again.  What's happening here is that we were working on getting production going again and this is what came out.  Obviously unlisted for a reason, but that's why you're all here!  As Jim has been struggling, we have all been working on keeping the PCPer train running, and we are getting back on the tracks.  Mostly.  Enjoy.


Ps. There are more of the unlisted, raw, uncut gaff filled ...
