SPEAKER_00: I still got it, bro.
15:22
SPEAKER_00: And I I rarely play it, bro.
15:25
SPEAKER_00: Really?
15:26
SPEAKER_00: Rarely.
15:26
SPEAKER_02: I don't know much about that, bro.
15:28
SPEAKER_02: So to me, that's like buying by like four thousand dollars.
15:31
SPEAKER_02: Like, damn.
15:31
SPEAKER_02: That's pretty much it's I mean higher ends.
15:34
SPEAKER_00: Okay, yeah, like like like the graphics card I have right now in it is a 4080.
15:38
SPEAKER_00: You know, the the newest Ryzen that's that's can come out.
15:41
SPEAKER_00: Um it's a Corsair case, bro.
15:44
SPEAKER_00: The case by itself is like$400, massive big case, bro.
15:48
SPEAKER_03: Did you buy your graphics card before or after they went down?
15:51
SPEAKER_00: I bought it.
15:51
SPEAKER_00: I actually had pre-ordered the 4080, so that cost me by itself was like$1,400,$1,500.
15:58
SPEAKER_03: So at one point, I think the 4080s, or at least the TIs were like three grand or$3,500.
16:03
SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
16:04
SPEAKER_03: So, but then I think like 2021, 2022, somewhere they started declining and they started becoming more affordable.
16:11
SPEAKER_03: It wasn't yeah, they're not they're not like they were back pre-COVID, but they're still yeah, like like when the 3000 series was out, man.
16:18
SPEAKER_00: I remember buying, I remember going to Houston and buying uh a 3080, which you could have got before COVID for six-seven hundred bucks, something like that, and I was paying twelve, thirteen hundred dollars double the price of what it's originally worth.
16:34
SPEAKER_00: Wow, you know, and then um these the 4000 series came up, you know.
16:39
SPEAKER_00: I was able to snag one at retail price, but even for a little bit, people like you know, get on Facebook market and yeah, eighteen hundred dollars, nineteen hundred dollars.
16:48
SPEAKER_03: So I don't know if you know.
16:49
SPEAKER_03: So, like the those graphics cards, they're used for like mining of bitcoins, like not just bitcoins, but like of cryptocurrency in general.
16:57
SPEAKER_03: Okay, so the reason they got so high was because when covet happened, nobody was really doing anything, so all these people started buying them up and started mining bitcoin.
17:03
SPEAKER_03: Oh wow, so then they skyrocketed, you know what I mean?
17:06
SPEAKER_03: So the the average consumer of of being able to buy your own build your own PC was no longer an like a feasible thing.
17:12
SPEAKER_03: You could you could build your own PC for like$1,500 back in the day, and now that's kind of like on the low end.
17:17
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
17:18
SPEAKER_00: That's gonna be like maybe like a part like a$1650 or 1080 Ti, you know, you ain't gonna get no 3000 series.
17:26
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I bought my 1080 Ti for like 600 bucks, 500 bucks.
17:30
SPEAKER_00: And when I first got when I first got into PC, I happened to be at Aaron's, bro, and they had a and they had like a 1650 setup, whatever.
17:40
SPEAKER_00: I think it was like a Ryzen 5 3900.
17:45
SPEAKER_00: And uh the lady tells my little girl, just does she have luck?
17:48
SPEAKER_00: I said, I don't know.
17:49
SPEAKER_00: She's like, here, draw a bow out.
17:51
SPEAKER_00: And it was like, uh, oh, you only have to put$20 down.
17:55
SPEAKER_00: So I put the$20 down and uh I go home with it, bro.
18:00
SPEAKER_00: And I'm playing some games.
18:02
SPEAKER_00: I don't like this, man.
18:03
SPEAKER_00: I said the graphics kind of shitty.
18:05
SPEAKER_00: I said, nah.
18:06
SPEAKER_00: So my buddy said, nah, man, uh, I got a 1080 Ti.
18:10
SPEAKER_00: Um, I'll send it to you, 200 bucks.
18:13
SPEAKER_00: He goes, I don't even use it.
18:14
SPEAKER_00: So I put it in there and I was like, man, this works badass.
18:18
SPEAKER_00: So I had that for a little bit.
18:19
SPEAKER_00: Then I still didn't like it, bro.
18:21
SPEAKER_00: I wanted something better.
18:22
SPEAKER_00: So of course COVID's already, you know, going on.
18:26
SPEAKER_00: And I'm like, so I'm on Facebook Market.
18:28
SPEAKER_00: You can't get a 30 uh a 3,000 series card off, you know, from no website, they're all sold out.
18:34
SPEAKER_00: You know, so I'm on Facebook Market and boom, I see a 3070.
18:39
SPEAKER_00: A guy wants uh 800 bucks for it.
18:43
SPEAKER_00: I said, man.
18:45
SPEAKER_00: And he's from Sugarland.
18:46
SPEAKER_00: You know, he's like, Can you meet me at the police station?
18:49
SPEAKER_00: I said, bro.
18:50
SPEAKER_00: You probably saw your profile.
18:52
SPEAKER_00: Like, look, I'm like, I'm like two and a half hours from you, bro, but I'll be there.
18:56
SPEAKER_00: I said, just tell me what police station you want, and I'll be there.
18:59
SPEAKER_00: So boom, we drive over there, bro, and I get it.
19:02
SPEAKER_00: And I come back.
19:04
SPEAKER_00: I still want something better, bro.
19:07
SPEAKER_00: So there's a 3080, the 3080 comes in play.
19:10
SPEAKER_02: What is that?
19:10
SPEAKER_02: Hold on.
19:11
SPEAKER_02: What so that's what do your graphic cards?
19:13
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, the graphics card.
19:14
SPEAKER_03: It's like the serial, so like it started, well, it started real low, but 1080, 1080 is like was like a real big leap.
19:20
SPEAKER_03: 1080, uh 1080, like 1080, it's just the like the number associated with that card.
19:26
SPEAKER_03: Okay, so it goes like 10, 1060, 1070, 1080.
19:29
SPEAKER_03: Then it went 2060, 2070, 20.
19:32
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so it jumps like 20, 30.
19:34
SPEAKER_03: Now we're in the 40s, so now it's like 4060, 4070, 4080.
19:38
SPEAKER_02: So you got that one from the Sugarland dude, and you needed another one?
19:41
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, then I wanted it something better.
19:43
SPEAKER_00: So I got the 3080.
19:45
SPEAKER_00: And the 3080 ran me about, I think it was like 12, 13.
19:48
SPEAKER_00: So I had to meet the guy in Houston for that, right?
19:51
SPEAKER_00: So then I had that, bro.
19:53
SPEAKER_00: So I think around that time, there was a 3090s graphics card, and then they came out with the 3090 Ti.
20:01
SPEAKER_00: Yep.
20:02
SPEAKER_00: So I wanted that.
20:04
SPEAKER_00: So I sold my 3080 for way less than when I bought it, just to be able to put in for that 39.
20:13
SPEAKER_00: And mind you, at this time, I don't even have a job, bro.
20:16
SPEAKER_00: You know, so you know.
20:17
SPEAKER_00: You figured it out, yeah.
20:19
SPEAKER_00: So uh, so boom, I get the 3090 Ti, and then not even like a couple of months later, oh, the 40,000 series.
20:29
SPEAKER_00: Come on.
20:30
SPEAKER_00: I was like, I just got this card, yeah, you know, but like I said, I was able to get the the 4080 at retail price, and now it's kind of like uh it's hard to get them at retail.
20:39
SPEAKER_03: I mean, you can still get them, but yeah, it's come down a lot, a lot, a lot.
20:43
SPEAKER_03: You're probably talking about like 50% for like the higher end cards, like lower than what it was a couple years ago.
20:48

33:34
SPEAKER_00: Medium rare, bro.
33:34
SPEAKER_03: There you go, but depends.
33:36
SPEAKER_03: Sometimes I'll tell them like blue and like super chart on the outside.
33:39
SPEAKER_03: Depends on how I'm feeling.
33:40
SPEAKER_03: You like your blue?
33:40
SPEAKER_03: I've never had a blue steak, bro.
33:42
SPEAKER_00: I've never had a blue steak.
33:43
SPEAKER_03: Dude, what is that?
33:45
SPEAKER_00: That's like 10 seconds on your stuff.
33:47
SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, like it's almost raw on the inside, yeah.
33:50
SPEAKER_03: Oh well, actually, it is raw on the inside.
33:51
SPEAKER_00: It's like real chart on the outside and raw in the orbit.
33:55
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's like but medium rare, it's got I think it's got the best flavor, but sometimes I like blue A1 sauce or no A1.
34:01
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, if it's steaks cooked properly, you don't need a good steak doesn't need A1 sauce, bro.
34:06
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I don't like that A1 sauce anyway.
34:08
SPEAKER_02: It's like sour.
34:09
SPEAKER_00: It's not my wife over here.
34:10
SPEAKER_00: Oh, let me have it well done.
34:11
SPEAKER_00: I said, Dang, right.

34:15
SPEAKER_03: At that point, just get a burger.
34:17
SPEAKER_03: Just get a burger.
34:18
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, damn.
34:20
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I I mess with steaks heavy, bro.
34:23
SPEAKER_02: So the ribeye and the sirloin, the sirloin is more meaty or more gamey.
34:27
SPEAKER_02: Is that the difference between the two?
34:28
SPEAKER_03: Ribeye has a lot of fat.
34:29
SPEAKER_03: There you go.
34:30
SPEAKER_03: So when when a ribeye cooks, you're it's gonna have a lot more flavor because that fat gives it a lot more flavor.
34:35
SPEAKER_00: I think like the the like the New York strip's a little bit more like lean on the well, shrimp is like super lean, there's like a very thin layer of fat on it.
34:43
SPEAKER_02: So New York's the leanest and then sirloin and then ribeye.
34:46
SPEAKER_03: I think sirloin's a type of meat.
34:48
SPEAKER_03: Oh so yeah, like a type of cut, like from wherever it's from.
34:51
SPEAKER_03: But I I honestly all I know is ribeye.
34:53
SPEAKER_03: If if I go anywhere, I'm like, just give me a ribeye.
34:55
SPEAKER_03: I don't want anything else.
34:56
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, just a ribeye.
34:58
SPEAKER_00: Like I've I tried a filet mignon one time, bro.
35:00
SPEAKER_00: It's like 60 bucks.
35:02
SPEAKER_00: And I've for I had never even seen one, bro.
35:04
SPEAKER_00: And when they bring it out, it's like it's like a uh medallion.
35:07
SPEAKER_00: Oh my god.
35:08
SPEAKER_00: But if I put it in the size of this, I'm like, I'm paying$60 for that.
35:13
SPEAKER_00: They're like, yeah, it's a filet mignon.
35:15
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I mean it's it's top choice meat, but like I'd rather just have a regular old rib.
35:19
SPEAKER_03: I just you know it's still I'm thinking fish, filet mignon, but it's it's uh it's like actual like cow or what?
35:26
SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's a it just depends on where they cut it from, but it's supposed to be like premium.
35:30
SPEAKER_03: Like that's the print, that's like the supposed to be.
35:34
SPEAKER_03: Wow, I didn't like it.
35:36
SPEAKER_00: I don't I don't know if y'all ever y'all ever had a dry age steak.
