A lot has changed in 10 years!

[@Jayztwocents]

Also sorry for the reverb of the video we're watching. We are working out the process to improve the sound! We wanted to avoid headphones but might be necessary. We didnt want to use the podcast set as its a bit awkward with how far apart we sit.

[@tomhartley5086]

dont stress mate its fine!! Love the videos!

[@OGruurd]

Seems fine to me. People always find something to complain about lol.

[@cmdrclassified]

It's all good, Jay! Phil's laugh makes up for everything!

[@LautaroQ2812]

Jay it's supposed to be a silly video for fun. Don't worry about the sound.

[@forceonefromrylos3924]

Sounds was fine. What is odd is the camera angle, as it forces perspective to only you and Phil. It comes across that Jay's back is to Nick and that Nick is odd man out.

[@IsakM24]

Thank you Jay!! I remember watching you when I was 15 and you had 10,000 subscribers. Now I'm 25 and just recently graduated as an engineer in computer science, in no small part thanks to you, Linus and others who all sparked my interest for computers and technology.

[@DGCastell]

Similar thing happened to me, started geeking on tech videos back in 2011, built my first PC in 2012 and now I'm about to graduate from the same major as you!

[@OGruurd]

@@yodead369 Little insecure mate?

[@sopcannon]

i found jay from linus and the then youtube algorithm.

[@Digikidthevoiceofreason]

Linus?!?!? What did you learn from that clown? How to drop and break everything??? 🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡

[@thomaspugh5348]

Congratulations Itzaak98 on your graduation. The show was pretty funny but Phil's thought bubble kept advertising fast food. Nick is way to quiet but knowledgeable in the field. Thanks for the throwback show.

[@FlyboyHelosim]

Takeaways from this video: Nick is the most chill MF ever and Phil laughs maniacally at just about anything.

[@405ruben]

He has that when you’re boss makes a joke and you need a raise laugh

[@phydeux]

Your amazing editing skills are still amazing at 17:41 when you have the same shot in PIP. 🤣 I like this idea too. It gives you guys a chance to do something low-effort, and it's an amusing look back for those of us who came in later to the game. So it's a win-win.

[@markbrettnell3503]

You guys need to do this every so often. This was a fun video.👍 The sound wasn't to bad either. Just had an echo effect is all.

[@davidd7827]

Blew my mind to hear you guys say Victorville and Inland Empire. I was born in Victorville 40+ years ago. I left the High Desert area over 20 years ago and you made me a little nostalgic. Thanks for the walk down memory lane :)

[@EddieArafa]

you were and still are one of my go to guys when it comes to computer related stuff, I started watching your videos in 2015 if im not mistaken, and ive been a fan ever since. Keep going man!

[@boxerdog5979]

in 2014 jay built me 4 computers for my business. used these cases. still all work great. Built me a gaming computer for my home, but i replaced that, but it was really nice. Gave it to my computer guy. Jay is the best. really nice person.

[@Digikidthevoiceofreason]

I have been with your channel since the beginning. I miss your old house office, then your garage, then the best setup that you had in that storage area with the stairs….then the okay area you have now. I remember all the times that you ALWAYS got zapped by unboxing cases ( Fractal Node cases in case you want to look that up ) and when COCONUTMUNKY ( Nick ) left….and came back. It’s been a wild ride for sure.

[@AnnaCentauri]

Glad I found this channel. Parts for my first build came in the mail today!

[@itrules1406]

Jay, you were one of the reasons i decided to build my first computer in 2013. Thanks for all the great content over the years! Keep up the fantastic work!

[@Daddypikachu]

Thank you jay, and team ❤️ for every single video over the years.

[@Sir_Bini]

I still remember Jay's rant video about the Titan and that Nic's interruption when he flings open the door asking if he saw the Titan announcement! 🤣🤣

[@chemmustang656]

I think I found your channel back in late 2012 or early 2013. I don't remember how long ago the videos were, but the "Will It Cool" videos where you took different liquids and put them in a cooling loop to see how well they cool vs standard deionized water. That was back when you were still in your garage. The "Will It Cool" were some of my favorite videos from years ago.

[@flinzlogik]

I love the evolution... We all start somewhere, but it's crazy to see how much you evolved the channel over the years.

[@YouStayClassySanDiego]

This video was about the same time as the release of the Silverstone Raven RV-02. Now that was a unique case design. I finally replaced my RV-02 this year. 10 years of service from a case ain't bad.

[@SkullAngel002]

4:27 - "What is this animation?" Phil, that's Jay taking a crack at keyframing. 😂😂😂

[@akaSLAYER94]

Man has things changed a good amount. I remember when I first began watching your videos 10 years ago. Watched a lot of your comparisons between FX-8350 and i7-2700K/i7-3700k videos to help me decide on my first CPU. Also remember you played a lot of battlefield 3 then too.

[@stinkertonsden]

Honestly this was a refreshing, and fun, video! It's enjoyable to me when a content creator can look back and light heartedly critique their own work, plus it really shows the growth from the early days.

[@TomFooleryGaming]

I still have my PC sitting on a cabinet shelf on the floor under my desk. Recently checked, it's not even really dusty. The Meshify is doing it's job.

[@m1keway266]

I've been watching your videos since the middle July of 2014. You had the FX 8320 watercooled, and it had soft tubing in the first video I watched. You were the main person that helped get me back in to pc gaming and building. I'm still building and gaming. Thanks Jay

[@Midcon77]

Freakin' hilarious! I definitely think you should drop one of these every now and then - maybe as a compare and contrast from "back then" to now from a tech standpoint. I really love retro computers and that includes the old DOS and Windows 95 stuff. Watching you guys react to the progress would be a fun excursion from the usual content. Plus, for anyone wanting to do KZbin on a more serious basis, they could learn what it takes to be successful. Regardless, loved this and hope to see more!

[@thomaszhu2277]

That intro, man that brought me back to when I first started building and was watching Jays “crazy” builds and dreaming.

[@QueLoKevin]

That case may be old as hell, but I’m still using it to this day. It’s clean, quiet, and quality. Did all my builds in this thing.

[@arnox4554]

*Bring back 5.25" drive bays!* And no, not just for optical drives. I currently use mine as a hot-swap drive bay for example and it is SO choice.

[@jamiecourtemanche4495]

Great thing about watching something that far back is if you were around then you can really enjoy it. For those that weren't around or didn't go through it then really strikes them odd. It's great to see what old trends still live up and what went by the wayside. Keep looking back from time to time.

[@mattgibson6144]

It's always fun to see how CC's start out, and the rawness of the early efforts. In this case though the fun was amplified because we see examples of how far some of the PC tech has come in such a short time, something we often don't notice from year to year unless you are constantly upgrading your rig.

[@andersmartensson8659]

Yes! This was fun, more please. :) A stroll down memory lane are often quite funny. It also lets you know that you have improved a lot even though it might not seem so.

[@roberthelcher2884]

I love checking out the old content. I think I been following you since 2017.

[@Lumindeas]

That was a blast :) Great point on using wood on carpet. I always get tile. Multitude of colors and patterns to match whatever flooring your using it on. Haven't been to the hardware store in a minute, but given how much wood went up, probably cheaper with tile right now :). More of these, as you feel the need to, please!! That was a great trip down memory lane :).

[@theElemDragon]

I just love how for part of the video there, we were watching Jay, Nick, and Phil watching the video..... with the feed of them watching the video in the corner as well. It's like Ok..... what are YOU watching?

[@StaK_1980]

I don't remember when I saw your first video or subscribed, but it was a while back. This is a trip down memory lane, good fun!

[@killer01ws6]

I feel you all should have had popcorn while watching it. hope you guys are here for us another 10+yrs.

[@thseed7]

Congrats on a 10-11 years of KZbin. Thanks for all the content, especially the build tutorials. Love looking back at the JayzTwoCents tech time capsule.

[@processedsoy]

I'm on a different account now but I have been watching since November of 2015. I was building my first PC and I used your videos as a guide. I'll always be watching! Thank you for all the years of awesome content, wishing you all the best moving forward!

[@aleksandrbmelnikov]

Jay acting as if 2013 were the stone age. You know, before RGB. 😂 Hey, it's cool to see you eased up over the years. If life is nothing else, it's funny, so you might as well laugh. Another great video. Thanks.

[@spiv]

my pc is still in a define r4 case, and you just blew my mind about the insulation.

[@NEXCUSX]

Love that I am still using this case on the 2nd rebuild of my daily rig lol

[@kayrok]

For whatever reason your channel has given me the motivation to start my own and honestly seeing this old video makes me feel that it is possible. Yes, a lot of people say it is, but sounds like shtuff when you are filimg witha 4k/8k full frame camera and have a trained/professional person to edit and actually live of your content. THIS is a boost of confidence since i can relate about doing/thinking stuff while at work and, again, makes me feel that with the right amount of effort and patience i can make it there. Hope that one day i get to meet you in person. Keep it up!

[@HanCurunyr]

I'm rocking a Corsair CX 650w since 2018, went thru two CPUs, i5 7500 and R5 3600x and 3 GPUs, 1050ti, RX 590, RTX 3070 and still going strong

[@masterkeaton1000]

I'd really enjoy it if you kept doing these looks back at older videos for your milestones. I first started watching you when you were still working on Skunk Works so its been quite a journey since then. Keep up the awesome videos, Jay!

[@joshuacarroll9755]

I've always enjoyed seeing you guys just hang out. I love this kid of stuff.

[@Strange_92]

I've watced your videos from around 2015 or 2016, if I remember correctly. Many of them have been helpful to me. Oh and by the way, I have the Define XL R2 case, found one for free in Facebook about a year back, and it was in such a good condition that I just had to pick it up. Still in a good condition, and it's easy to build into, there's so much room

[@dosmaiz7361]

My first jayz2c video was around 2013-2014, and it was a watercooling "how to" in his living room.

[@zartul]

So frecking good!! Please do this more often!! Could pick a video of the month to do something like that!

[@5ebliminal]

Its incredible seeing you go from using a garage as a studio to edit in when coconutmonkey started to a big ass building with multiple employee's

[@0nyxghost]

What fun it is to reminisce old videos. I didn't change my computer case since my Aorus X570 motherboard, Ryzen 5900X and 3080 GPU upgrade. I'm still using my Thermaltake Chaser MK-1 with an Aorus 240 all-in-one cooler without modification. This case was fully loaded with all the extras that are fading away. I used e-sata and the hot swappable drive bay a lot in the past. Having Blu-ray and DVD burner drives I was able to enjoy 3D movies and 3D Vision games. I have disconnected the 970's in SLI with tripple 1080P monitors at 120hz for a single 32" 4k display. The new cases seem expensive with so little offering to expandability. Where are we going ×ith cases after the light shows are considered pass-eh! 🇨🇦

[@mohd-alhapizabhalim8431]

That is why I love to watch your videos. The humour you guys put in doesn't make me boring. I see you when I see you.

[@marcc5768]

this is a welcome change of pace in the content, wouldn't mnd see more like this down the road

[@stevewoodyt]

Flip the phase on the video audio track. Get it lined up better and make tiny millisecond adjustments until it cancels out. They use this technique in recording studios when monitors bleed into the microphones. I read about Joe Satriani doing this in studio many years ago.

[@ibizenco]

10 years ago, in the summer of 2013, I put together my VERY first gaming computer - with an i5-2500K and a RadeonHD 6870 in an Antec 300 PC case. I still have the computer, lovingly called "the Cougar" (P67 "Cougar Point" Intel chipset), although Skyrim is the only game I still play on it nowadays. 🙂 From a 2500K to a 5700X, and from a GTX 1650 Super to a 3070Ti - a lot has indeed changed.

[@C0mmanderDanger]

One of the first videos I watched of yours was the red mist series. Feel in love with watercooling from then on

[@stonehartfloydfan]

Lol I remember watching your videos back then.. come a long way man... Chuckles in sound engineer at your use of a db meter.

[@thomas_baxter]

Phil’s laugh ❤

[@Furball-8994]

I would love to see a "through the years" series. Pick a date and do one of these look back reaction videos for every year. It would give you guys and all of us a look at the progression of your personalities and the channel.

[@jcnz84]

That original intro took me back, been watching since we both were rocking sli 780s .Thanks for the years of goodtimes.

[@MarsTech888]

First Georgian Tech channel. Jey you are the man, most honest tech guy ever. My idol ❤️

[@GarteBera]

Georgian??? What you mean?

[@blackmetalchemist]

I loved seeing this so much dude! To see your progression from that long ago (even though I started watching you a little more than 3 years ago) is incredible Well done, ALL of you!

[@Jay_the_Caffeinator]

Awesomesauce!! Nothing like seeing how videos and editing have transformed over the years. From one Jay to another.

[@Uzishan]

damn... to think that I've been watching Jay since late 2013..... even though I'm 30 now and back then I was 20, not really that far in age from Jay, I kinda feel like he was a digital dad for me... most of my base knowledge regarding PCs and came from him. Thanks for being here Jay! and hope to see your channel grow even more!

[@phillipnoyes5912]

I remember coming across this channel many, many years ago after some popular build channels like tj harlow and another I can't remember at the moment stopped making content. Very thankful for Jay and the guys. ❤

[@hsandev8972]

Jay im pretty sure ive been with you since the Fx 8xxx era, but you were always popping and going in my youtube. But i always used you for a reliable source of hardware and review stuff. Even got into networking from all the stuff i watched :D

[@MrAcuta73]

I only put computers on the floor, mostly because I pretty much only build in full tower cases. I just bought a couple pieces of 1/8" stainless steel to set the cases on to keep it away from the carpet. Also a more solid foundation.

[@NBXRacing]

Thanks for this blast from the past. I've been watching you since early 2013 and....wow. I completely forgot about that intro. Congrats Jay!

[@cutecakes64]

Great Memories! I've been watching since the Red Mist days of Jay sounding like Wade from GTA V and collabing with Francis and Barnacules. My all time favorite video was the "How to build a gaming computer - Tech addiction special edition". It's crazy to think that was 10 years ago.

[@kennadod2080]

It's mad how quickly tech moves on, this stuff looks ancient now ha ha. Good content, I like it

[@SgtStarSlayer]

i still remember the first video I saw from back in the day was doing a custom watercooling ssystem. With off brand water blocks and and clear plastic hose with some off the shelf green coolant from microcenter.

[@PhoeniXfromNL]

I came across your channel a tad later, had watercooling back in the 2000's but you inspired me to go hard tubing. and am still enjoying my build. and even I love the looks on the Corsair QL fans and pump (and no I don't like the cable's on them, cuzz it's hell to manage and cover them up) . Yet I am still enjoying my build, and hope to see some nice ones from you again in the future ^^

[@Bardolf87]

This was great haha! I always like when KZbin recommends me some of your older videos to watch, because It's always a blast seeing how far you've come. Would love more videos like this.

[@Colbsterscamaro]

I enjoyed going back in time with you all !! Loved the fomat including the whole team.

[@exoxxz7477]

Great seeing the past Jay. Thanks for the video. And yeah loving seeing the past.

[@SparkySpaceGaming]

Jay's use of the phrase "Also, too" has grown exponentially over 10 years. Congrats on the growth, and thanks for great content. Shout out to the team -- Get 'em bottle or something 🍻

[@KhawChing]

I moved away 17 years ago but hearing you say the IE and then mention Victorville, so funny. I didn't live in Victorville, don't get me wrong. I did live in Yucaipa though and for over 20 years. I worked in Redlands and I was all over the Riverside and San Bernardino Counties as a teen/young adult. I remember when Ontario Mills Mall was built and opened. I went to the Central City Mall as a teen when it was hoppin before they installed the carousel and became known as The Carousel Mall in San Bernardino. Now sadly it's a shambles and deserted mall. I worked in Highland when the Rodney King Riots were happening. I saw people being assaulted in the parking lot and we had the store locked down only letting 1 customer in at a time. Disneyland had a "dance floor club" like thing you could go to and they had Samantha Foxx play there on my Grad Night while New Kids on the Block played Tom Sawyer's Island Stage (Where Fantasmic is now). Yucaipa came out of Township and became a City while I lived there. When we moved back there after being in Colorado Springs for 6 years, Yucaipa had about 27,000 people. Now it's got double that. If it could still be like it was when I was a teen/young adult and didn't become so insanely expensive to live in, I'd still be there. I still have family there though so I get back there when I can. Anyways, just the IE shout out brought back memories. Thanks!

[@barrybpl]

Make more of these... please, if you want to, it's your call, no pressure.

[@mraso30]

Enjoyed your content since early-mid 2014. By then, from what I recall, things were looking quite improved.. I recall Skunkworks, with the yellow fluid and that gun-metal coloured case, and I remember thinking "My lord, that is the sexiest computer I have ever seen." I hadn't seen many custom builds at that point, but man, that is still such a nice PC to me.

[@nicktayloriv310]

I have a Fractal Define 7XL as my in home NAS case. Don't see that changing unless a meteor or something hits it! 🌠

[@rl102187]

[@OmegaBlack999]

Yes!! More, please. Thanks, guys!! Love you!!

[@brianm2578]

That was entertaining lol. Older Jay mocking young Jay while Nick and Phil mock both

[@Eric_Von_Yesselstyn]

My HAF-X is still laughing at 10 years ago tech for cases.. And it's still a performer, beating out 95% of trash out there today.

[@macleod1592]

This was a very cool video. I love looking back at all the cool tech 10+ years ago. I got into this thing of ours back in 2008 and when I see old tech like this is brings back all the "kid at Christmas" feelings I had when learning about and searching reviewes for gear back then. And I STILL use my OG BlackWidow Ultimate keyboard. It's my all time favorite keyboard to type on.

[@samfarabee2963]

Jay I started watching your videos JUST before you hit 100K subscribers ( I think). It's cool to see some of the really old "stuff". Keep it up you guys, you guys are creative, knowledgeable, and entertaining.

[@charlesballard5251]

Oh... I can't help it. I'm bringing up your list of vids and going back to the beginning. I think I discovered you in April or May of 2018 just before I last built a computer. The parts for my new machine are enroute (Prime Day just came and went). I saved money last time by not buying HDD's as I figured I would just transfer them into the new machine. Now I've saved money by not getting a case so I'll just transfer the new parts into my old case (not the original case actually, I replaced that a couple of years ago with a slightly smaller mid-size tower, my full-size Rosewill THOR V2 was so big I couldn't see the ports on top without pulling it out of the cubby). I somehow seem to build a more powerful computer every time I build, but I pay less.

[@Edgemaster72]

Took me a minute to realize that the audio was echo from you guys watching the videos back, and not just part of the old videos themselves

[@hovicious4044]

Wish I could've been there for the beginning. You're the best, Jay. Thank you for the content.

[@SeatedOvation]

Is it a bad sign that the Fractal Case review is for the case that I am still using to this day! All the insides have changed, multiple times, but the case lives on.

[@seriphim8542]

I just migrated my home server out of this case two months ago. Worked great for the last 10 years. The sound dampening sure didn't make it silent, but it did help knock down the overall pitch of the noise. Was a heavy SOB though. Only reason I changed out the case was the weight to be honest. Moved to a Meshify 2. Fractal is one the last vendors supporting large HDD counts in cases. The Meshify 2 being even rarer having a solid side panel.

[@henryproctor2193]

That actually was entertaining as I sit here eating Huevos Rancheros with a brewski. Enjoy your Sunday 🤘

Jay, I remember stumbling upon your fractal review in 2013 when I was shopping around for a case! At the time, your video convinced me to go with a NZXT case instead.
