What video was your first Linus video

YT2002

What video was your first video of watching linus? It could be LTT, TQ, CSF or NCIX. Mine was the eprance vid, but i only watched for like 1 minute. I wasnt intersted initially because i always thought it was "LinuxTechTips" My first full vid that i watched form him was the Logitech Harmony remote. Then on I watched daily.

PC is Intel Core i5 6400, GIgabyte H170 Gaming 3, Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x4GB 2400Mhz ,Sandisk Ultra Plus 128GB, WD Blue 1TB, NZXT S340, ASUS Geforce GTX 960. Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/793XNG. Graphics card choices don't always have to be dictated on performance. If you want the game stream and power consumption of the GTX 970 get that. If you want raw performance of the R9 390 get that. In the end we are all gamers, so what if your buddy gets an extra 5 fps?

I was looking for instructions on how to put a waterblock on a GPU. I ended up not doing it anyway but still.

The 1st video i watched of Linus was a video on the Titian Black I believe (I know it was a Titan anyway)

But i looked on PCCase Gear for the most expensive card and i clicked on it and there was a video of Linus talking about it.

I remember thinking is this the guy who made Linux, which it turned out it was a NO!!!

I don't know, but before he did videos on the gtx 480, I know that much. So I'd guess since like 2009.

 

I also remember him playing world of warcraft in 3d, I can't find that video, if anyone can, I'd appreciate it.

It was this xD

 

Or the Tuniq Tower one

 

But it could have been the water cooling one, since I was searching for water cooling back in those days.

I don't remember the exact video, but I was searching how to build a PC, and I ended up finding this forum and asking for build advice. I think it was a NCIX video, though.

It was too many years ago to remember. Long before the forum was even a thing, even before he had his own company.

I think the first video I watched of Linus was the i7 980x unboxing video because that's when I was starting to take a slight interest into PC parts. That was definitely 5 years ago.

My first video I watched from Linus was the Ultimate Overkill Water Cooled Gaming PC by LinusTechTips, until that build was dwarfed by The Compensator.

"So because they didn't give you the results you want, they're biased? You realize that makes you biased, right?" - @App4that

"Brand loyalty/fanboyism is stupid." - Unknown person on these forums

"Assuming kills" - @Moondrelor

"That's not to say that Nvidia is always better, or that AMD isn't worth owning. But the fact remains that this forum is AMD biased." - @App4that

"I'd imagine there's exceptions to this trend - but just going on mine and my acquaintances' purchase history, we've found that budget cards often require you to turn off certain features to get slick performance, even though those technologies are previous gen and should be having a negligible impact" - ace42

That's a good question. It wasn't that long ago, but I don't remember well. I think it was a PC building tutorial.
