[0.00 --> 7.58] I think we're good to go now. I'm seeing only green lights. OBS is telling me that it disconnected and reconnected and stuff, but I think we're good to go.
[7.66 --> 15.08] Welcome to the WAN show. It's just me this week. All of LMG, as you might recall, I'm not technically part of LMG anymore.
[15.18 --> 28.58] All of LMG is off on this workcation thing in Banff. If you want to look that up, a lot of us Canadians say Banff, which sounds like it has an M in it, but it's actually an N.
[28.58 --> 35.84] So it's B-A-N-F-F. It's an absolutely beautiful place. A bunch of them are uploading pictures to their Instagrams and their Twitters and whatnot, so check that out.
[35.90 --> 40.52] It's super cool, but again, it is just me this week, so this is the WAN show.
[40.88 --> 51.94] We've got some topics, I guess, technically. There's a new AMD Zen and Radeon Vega CPU for just $55. Sounds super cool, but we'll talk about that later.
[51.94 --> 71.42] Microsoft is going to continue support for Windows 7 if you pay them. There's a second Razer phone that has been confirmed, and there's some other cool news like leaked benchmarks showing off 9700K, some Steam news, some AT&T news, some EA news, a follow-up of the Jacksonville shooting.
[71.78 --> 78.48] Tons of random stuff. So yeah, stay tuned. Intro. Boom. It worked. What up?
[78.48 --> 83.42] Camera slightly out of focus. RIP! Don't think I can fix it!
[85.92 --> 89.42] I might just be leaning too much or something. I'll try to fix it on my own.
[97.42 --> 98.18] Sponsor slides?
[100.12 --> 100.88] Or not.
[100.88 --> 107.74] What now, audience? You didn't see that coming. You try to guess everything. You're like, oh, the WAN show's going to be late again.
[107.92 --> 113.12] And you're right. By like three minutes. But you didn't guess that, did you? No sponsor slides. What now?
[114.36 --> 114.98] Let's go.
[115.20 --> 117.50] Okay, first topic. Let's talk about AMD.
[118.04 --> 119.28] And let's talk about Vega.
[119.62 --> 120.42] And let's talk about Zen.
[120.48 --> 121.32] And let's talk about Radeon.
[121.54 --> 124.80] There's a new CPU, like I said earlier, for $55.
[124.80 --> 129.82] Now, I do want to say, I'm going to jump into the AMD's website here for a second.
[131.04 --> 133.02] I guess you guys are going to see Twitch chat on screen.
[133.76 --> 135.04] Because I want to be able to see you.
[135.24 --> 135.86] There you are!
[136.36 --> 136.96] Oh boy!
[138.86 --> 140.00] This isn't...
[140.00 --> 141.88] A lot of people have been like, oh my god, yay!
[142.04 --> 144.60] Someone finally cares about the low-end scene.
[144.66 --> 146.38] And that's not necessarily true.
[147.68 --> 152.48] Intel does have processors that are around the $50 range as well.
[152.48 --> 157.40] And that are two core, four thread processors, like this one is.
[157.96 --> 163.50] What I will say is that Vega on a CPU is pretty neato.
[163.82 --> 167.38] And they're claiming that you should be able to do eSports games.
[169.52 --> 172.06] That's becoming a little bit broader of a statement these days.
[172.10 --> 174.00] So I'm not 100% sure how confident in that I am.
[174.04 --> 177.48] But it says eSports game, high definition 720p.
[177.62 --> 179.18] Which is actually not bad.
[179.18 --> 183.52] Especially for someone who wants to just dip their toe into gaming.
[183.98 --> 188.18] If you can do that without buying a graphics card, you can...
[188.92 --> 192.50] Is it okay? Is everything fine?
[193.34 --> 194.62] It looks like everything's fine.
[194.82 --> 196.72] There's some people in the comments trying to troll me.
[196.88 --> 198.08] But I'm just going to keep moving anyways.
[200.28 --> 205.96] It's going to be nice to be able to play what I'm assuming is like Counter-Strike League of Legends kind of stuff.
[205.96 --> 211.00] I don't think we're going to be hitting near the ranges of stuff like Overwatch.
[211.26 --> 214.94] Which is very, very much in the eSports range these days.
[215.30 --> 220.46] And then there's other companies that try to claim their like good positive eSports titles like PUBG.
[220.64 --> 221.38] And that's just weird.
[221.52 --> 223.40] And I don't know what eSports...
[223.40 --> 226.04] The category of eSports games even necessarily means anymore.
[226.30 --> 231.10] Before it was like StarCraft II, League of Legends, Counter-Strike.
[231.10 --> 234.64] And some others that were around the similar difficulty to run.
[235.76 --> 238.14] And now it's changed a little bit.
[238.20 --> 240.30] Let me know what you guys think in the Twitch chat.
[240.36 --> 241.68] Which I'm going to be watching all stream.
[241.78 --> 243.90] Because I don't exactly have anyone else to host with me.
[244.28 --> 249.94] Let me know what you guys think is the hardest to run proper eSports title.
[249.94 --> 257.52] And if you think it could run on this new AMD Zenon Radeon Vega CPU for $55.
[258.36 --> 260.04] Because you could get a really, really cheap...
[260.04 --> 262.18] I don't know if you guys watched the last season of Scrapyard Wars.
[262.32 --> 265.38] That was an older AMD chip with graphics on it.
[265.40 --> 266.18] But an A10.
[267.20 --> 269.38] Couldn't really run Fortnite reasonably.
[270.30 --> 272.20] But that wasn't at 720p.
[272.92 --> 274.62] We were doing that I believe at 1080.
[275.18 --> 276.94] So, I don't know.
[276.94 --> 281.30] Microsoft continuing to support Windows 7 if you can pay.
[281.62 --> 286.56] Although Windows 7 extended support is scheduled to go through January of 2020.
[286.98 --> 291.88] This new paid for support I believe should go through 2023.
[292.72 --> 293.14] Yeah, yeah.
[293.18 --> 293.60] 2023.
[293.86 --> 294.92] We don't have a specific month.
[295.24 --> 298.34] You will have to pay an additional fee for the security patches.
