(onsold all but 4 to freinds for no profit - jut to get them a good deal) all of these have stories, some more interesting and detailed than others... and thats not even the end of the list.. just the ones i can think of right now...

yes that mysterious box .... if im not mistaken the label that could be seen through the anti-static bag said radeom... or something like that.... :unsure: I wonder if the magical NDA has anything to do with it?? :huh: (LOL JKS... obviously the fury x, unless you've been living under a rock for the past week)

yeah, and you basically said that the last time that a vid was delayed due to NDA in my thread on the topic....... c'mon esp. with vessel being a week ahead there is no way linus will miss or delay an upload for any reason other than an NDA... linus hasn't missed a daily upload since the channel began, if you need proof, go watch the 1M sub's thankyou vid....

yep, just updated my nda delay thread.....

so... what NDA is it this time????? you've got to be kidding me if you don't agree/know that now days LTT pretty much only gets delayed for NDA's

yep.... i would consider myself an AMD fanboy, but until Zen launches in 2016, (which you don't want to wait for) AMD's instructions per clock is so low compared to Intel that I wont go recommending AMD cpu's for high end builds... (which your $1700 build is borderline on) as for the 390x launching at the same price as the 980/980ti..... likely complete BS.... unlike nvidia who are money hungry apple-think-alikes (charging as high as anyone is prepared to pay) AMD has traditionally (emphasis on traditionally) charged what their cards are worth.... and when they are ahead in performance Nvidia price drops to match.... as AMD hasn't had any serious advances in gpu performance recently, Nvidia has been able to charge whatever they want.... but don't expect the titian x to drop... the titan level cards just don't drop price that much as they have use in gpu compute/rendering ect. because of their massive frame buffer... and i would disagree with the idea that the 980ti wont change anything... it is likely going to be released to just beat the 390x or to go as high perf. as gm200 can go (in the case the 390x is a beast)... so it will change things, but likely only in response to the 390x... and obviously the 980 will fall dramatically to try and match the 390x in price/perf. but current-gen hardware is also prefectly fine, and if you were to go with amd gpu's it is likely that most of the lower 300 series will be re-brands anyway.... and my final piece of advice is while your waiting for cash/hardware to get searching for a nice (aluminium) case on the second hand market for a good price..... lian li's ect. can be had for a steal every now and again, all you have to do is keep an eye out on ebay/local classified ad sites/buy,swap,sell of forums..... or wherever people in your country sell cases/ 2nd hand hardware for a good price....

ok there it is... looks like no nda products..... but the guess on the new nzxt case was right... EDIT: i just noticed that hardware cannucks released their vid on the n450 simultaneously... so it looks like the nzxt case was the nda

TBH, i only notice when LTT dosn't upload at usual time as it is the only channel that i know of that hasn't gone a day without an upload... and ok if there is some issue causing there to be no video today, you have all now been forewarned of LTT history being made....

thats exactly my point... they just don't miss uploads and im only noting trends.... now that's a good thought!... do you know of the model name or a link to details/pics (if any exist)

OK CAN EVERYONE STOP TELLING ME HOW UNLIKELY 980TI IS.... it was a random guess, to give an example... not meant to be criticised... and i waw trying to think of something that would be under NDA, which wouldn't generate a ton of leaks.... I repeat it was a random guess... thats the point of trying to guess products under NDA... we dont know what or why.... yes it could be many reasons... however the channel has only been going for 6+ years with at least one video per day, never having missed an upload.... and it has been a recent trend with the releases of many products under NDA (given example, define R5, but there have been others) causing the upload to be delayed by a couple of hours

when was the last time you saw linus miss an upload for no reason? (FYI - its never happened - ever)

I do agree that it is likely too early, however it is also the only card that could be ready NOW, as all nvida has to do is create another binning tier for the GM200 and BAM!- 980ti that and i cant think of any other sector that it would come from at the moment....

so I noticed that tonight's (from an aussie perspective) video isn't up on Vessel or YouTube yet..... and normally in the past this signifies that it is being held back by a few hours for an NDA (a good, recent example was the define R5).... so im starting this tread to have some guesses at it..... im thinking it could be 980ti, as I doubt any other card would be ready yet and cant think of anything else, but what do you think? EDIT: not about the possibility of the 980ti, but what do you think there could be an NDA for?

So.... basicaly if your a lian li (or equivalent) owner get the warthog....... if thermaltake owner or other cheap gamer crappy case owner.... get some cheap gamer crap with hairtriggers and non-existant build quality like your case.....

ok, I get that its an easy solution for average joe, and its great to see the old style back once in a while, but seriously, for you guys its just pathetic, you could have easily run it down the bottom of the rear io, cable managed it 10x better and done some custom wiring..... this seems like you were just desperate for an upload.... at least in the old style video's things were done properly!
