    Produced videos are good for detailed "to the point" content.
    Vlog-style has a more personal feel to it, wich we can relate to.
    I vote for the "Big Mixture" option. It's nice to see something different from time to time. :-)

  • @zarethd
    @zarethd 8 років тому +22

    the vlogs are appealing for the same reason I even watch UA-cam vs TV. I like to watch people, real people, get shit done, accomplish things, inspire me to do things in my own life. I learn from their mistakes and I do better for it.
    The vlogs are usually about a specific real life issue you need to fix or want to fix so nearly everyone gains from them.
    Other videos are specific maybe relevant to someone buying a radiator, or doing a build in the near future etc. When I'm between builds I gloss over a lot of the parts reviews and stuff.
    Hope that helps!

  • @CJTressler
    @CJTressler 8 років тому +13

    The thing I really like about these vlogs is that here is something that I can do too. I can't afford to build a new pc at the moment (let alone something along the lines of SkunkWorks), but I can do some work on fixing up my garage/shop, or update my modem/network.
    That's just me, but wtf do I know?

  • @Gavrev
    @Gavrev 8 років тому

    The joy of the vlogs you do bud is that's they're simple, spontaneous and as a result are uncluttered in theirselves. You get to see the thought process that goes into it, and often shows whatever you're tackling as a real tech/DIY problem! It imparts confidence to the viewer and allows you to tag along :) love em. Cheers man! Don't forget to keep enjoying the coffee :)

    • @Dunkelelf3
      @Dunkelelf3 8 років тому

      +A Vong yeah.. i also like that it's kinda personal.. it's not a shot of the same room with benchmarks and overviews of the latest of the bazillion 980's out there as Jaap Brasser said.. it's more of this daily life situation.. also i like this kind of tech related stuff about tv, internet, network and so on.. i mean there are so many reviews of any gpu, cpu, whatever out there but if you think about it you mabye have to deal with buying a new video card like once every 2-3 years.. then you set a budget and get a card in that range and then those videos can help to find the brand and card where you get the most out of your money..
      dealing with this network stuff is most likely even rarer as you usually don't move around that much but everyone deals with it sometimes.. so it's nice to see other peoples solutions. i like watching videos about it... well i also think i won't buy a gpu for like 2 years or so.. but still i watch the videos.. i like to be well-informed about the tech stuff..

  • @scrapmetal1987

    The Vlogs are awesome Jay. It shows, in my opinion, what most channels lack. The lack is the detail and the real-life, real-world, hands-on experience that we all as humans face. As well as bringing a new personal side of Jay that I enjoy seeing. The project turned out great. Keep up the good work.

  • @daniel05451
    @daniel05451 8 років тому +10

    I enjoyed this video and here is why:
    - Educational, I learned quite a bit about how to set up my own future home, and what issues I might encounter.
    - Relate-able, every day life stuff that I'm assuming applies to most home owners or people who rent places.
    - Entertaining, most vlog-style videos you post are pretty interesting to watch, maybe it's just the type of person you are and somehow you make them work, but keep it up.
    - In the future, if you believe your view count / subscription count went down, make a new channel dedicated to vlogs..
    Some things I thought were, 'meh':
    - Final product, my expectations of you are pretty high.. When watching your videos, I always assume you know everything. Obviously it's unreasonable, but that's just how you present yourself, as a knowledgeable person. Wish the final organization was slightly better (specifically that board and router mounting) I was kind of expecting something more.
    Future Videos:
    - More vlog style, DYI, type videos would be appreciated.
    - How you set up your equipment (PC related and maybe video or both idk)
    Hope you read this comment, but if not, oh well.. Thank you for posting these videos I really enjoy everything you post.

    I like the VLOGs because you seem to enjoy doing it and sharing with us, I personally feel as though I'm standing around in your location and listening to you. When you share your family and your efforts to set up things, and even when you do driving VLOGs... it's just more real life and raw at times.

  • @JarrettGol
    @JarrettGol 8 років тому

    I enjoy the vlogs you do because it offers a different way of you teaching me things. Such as all these networking videos you have been doing and I've been loving! Showing rather than telling offers allows me to fully understand what your doing and to see the parts you buy so I know what they look like before you alter them. For example the rubber grommet hole. I honestly didn't know how to do that but now I do! I could name more but that's the gist!

    this is great, the reason why is because I want to build a nice patch panel for myself and my father, he currently has VDSL coming into his home with a lot of networking devices, he has poor internet on one end of his home and the fact that he's wanting each room wired with Ethernet and coax (for Antenna) it will make a nice one stop place for all networking needs.

    I like the vlogs because it's like I am hanging out with you. Vlogs motivate me to actually get work done. seeing time lapses of cleaning the wires up, or just like cleaning in general makes me that much more aware that I should pause the video and do that one task that I need to do. And then get back to the vlog.

Perhaps best of all though, it's a just a fun way to get a more personal look into the life of Jay! Having watched your channel for years, you've become (whether you like it or not) a virtual friend, and it's always fun to see what your friends are up to! Here's to many more vlogs.. Thanks dude!

  • @Animalwon
    @Animalwon 5 років тому

    JAY- I have seen your "professionally produced" videos but this is the first of your Vlog videos I have seen. I can see Why these are so popular - In PRO videos, you never see the DIY guy make a mistake or explore alternative plans. Here you not only demonstrate what your plan is but you also leave in your mistakes (in thinking as well as physical work errors) and that makes you more relate-able to the average person. Also, you are not in a hurry but take the time to discuss what you are doing or trying to accomplish - even as you realize you made a mistake drilling a hole for the grommet you planned to use, you demonstrated how you recovered from that mistake with a simple fix, the use of a larger grommet to "fix" the problem. I was taught in college to make "Pro" style videos with required scripts written out ahead of time but in real life not all goes as planned.
    Also, Your problem with long cables has an easy fix - in this day of modular cables even your cables are available in shorter sizes available for purchase from various internet sources. One of many is a place called "Cable Guys" - search everywhere beyond Amazon or Ebay and you can find them. I have found power cords and Internet patch cords as short as 1 foot for sale on the internet. Nowadays I make my own AC and Ethernet cables, so I could see making custom cables to suit your closet situation..but anyone can buy the right length cables with a proper internet search.

    I like seeing stuff like this because it helps me get ideas for when I redo my setup when I move this summer. I am trying to find a really good desk that can have 3 monitors and still have plenty of length space. I am ocd about the wires too, so your under the desk cage idea was brilliant! Keep it up man. You're my Go-To PC UA-camr, but I do like to see stuff like this that is outside of the PC spectrum.

  • @DRamrod1
    @DRamrod1 11 місяців тому

    I am an audio visual learner. While scrolling on UA-cam I saw something that I have a LeGrand On Q RG6 Coaxial cable installed in my home, and a passive splitter that was purchased in 2013 as well as an installed network box and Ethernet cable, and other associated peripherals. All of which haven’t been installed yet.
    With UA-cam videos I have learned about the smart home, increased capabilities and potential of the smart home. Learning how to DIY provides one with the necessary information of what needs to be done, how it needs get done, and the tools to get my home in order, which includes the strategic placement of an organized network box, and cable management of said network box.

    Vlogs have a very personal and relatable feel to them. They are good in moderation compared to the professional videos normally put out. It shows the audience that the Jay that shows us the absolute perfect rigs and setups does have bumps in the road. That no one does an absolute perfect job all the time and that all it takes to turn a messy situation into one that we can be proud of is a little thinking and ingenuity.

    For me, you seem to have a good mix, which is important. What initially drew me was the watercooling instructionals which were great and I've learned a lot, then the product reviews also help me make plans and introduce me to new products and companies. The Vlogs are like an added bonus, ones like today are more interesting because they show me what could be achieved etc. I never imagined mounting my router/modem etc to a board on the wall, now it's a definite plan for the next place. So, keep doing all 3 :)

    I like this kind of vlogs because usually what the camera shows is how your mind works. Who watches tech related videos usually is that kind of person interested in "problem solving". So if the subject of the video is not completely boring and you let us understanding step-by-step how you reached a solution or you managed to build an original "tech thing" i think there will be always someone who likes it.

    Vlogs are more real, and relateable,
    Maybe an explanation of MSAA, FXAA etc and what they do and the expected performance hits we take for having them on.

    I like seeing how the back-end of your videos work. The formal content is the primary thing, but when there’s not much formal content to make, the vlogs are an interesting behind-the-scenes look.

  • @AbnerG787
    @AbnerG787 8 років тому

    the vlogs are good because they are relatable, not all of us can buy $400+ graphics cards, but most of us have a wire mess or have moved and had to deal with coaxial splitters and we can get some ideas on how to wire manage. The vlog gives the sense that what you are doing is sort of winging it and see how it goes not rehearsed wich is good once in a while

      Reason(s) to use a patch panel: If something happens to your RJ45 connector or the end of the cable (from the curved pressure or constant replugging), and you do not have enough slack on your cable to recut the end, you will have to run an entirely new cable in your attic. Or, if you have a patch panel, just replace the patch cable or use a different port.
      Can anyone else share insights on the benefits of using a patch panel vs plugging directly into a switch?

    • @itstris

      @@ryand1520 useful if you want to directly connect two wall drops as well for whatever reason - just patch them on the patch panel. makes it a lot easier to replace switches as well

    @anthraxer2597 4 роки тому

    Obviously looks much better, well done Jayz :) My toes do want to curl-up when I see the Ethernet running up against power strips, power supplies and power cabling and even strapped with the power cables. UTP cable is unshielded so any EMF from the power cables/power supplies will induce the Ethernet cable and have no ways of draining the stray EMF away from your network cabling down to the wall box. This EMF has the potential to disrupt and corrupt data traversing the data cable (ie.CRC errors). Rule of thumb:- NEVER run UTP network cabling anywhere near any kind of power or alarm system cabling. Try and separate them as much as possible. If there is no other option then at least wrap the Ethernet cabling in a shielded braid/sleeve and have it earthed at both ends. STP is also a better option but then your equipment needs to be compatible (have metal-based RG45 female sockets) with the metal shielding RG45 so that EMF is drained away down to earth at the earthed equipment it terminates into but unfortunately most domestic gear doesn't accommodate this standard and is aligned more with the commercial/corporate end of things. I see the devastation a power surge or lightning strike causes when it runs across power and/or alarm system cabling that is in close proximity to I.T network equipment/cabling ..... It takes EVERYTHING out on the I.T/Network side of things just because the network cabling is unshielded/not earthed and cannot effectively drain away the induced surges introduced into the network equipment.

  • @legolator

    Well so far your VLOGS have been pretty relaxed, and it's all been interesting to watch. Like just seeing this one is interesting from the standpoint where I've been there myself, and I had a couple of iterations in my head before I finally did the wiring in my 2-story house. All my stuff was in the basement with a concrete vault and crap, so I had to get creative. Anyway, outtakes from your life which is kind of semi-connected to what you do for your mainvideos are interesting to watch, and the style of brainstorming-while-on-camera is fun to listen too. And I think the rewiring turned out just fine, there's not much you could do without rewiring some electrical stuff etc. and you already decided that was not a viable option anyway so. Keep it up, greetings from Sweden.

    I like your vlogs because you cover things that relate very easily to me. Yes its nice to see how to liquid cool a rig but am I really going to do something like that myself, I doubt it. Seeing something as simple as putting a gromit in a panel for cable management is a big ahha moment. How you checked your Wifi to troubleshoot performance issues was another. Basic but incredibly useful to those of us out there that have no clue (and we are many!)!
