  1. It's actually just crazy that this is implemented and working correctly. There is no other company that I think would waste time and money to do the programming and testing for an aspect ratio like this. The reply is from the guy that supposedly did the actual testing for this aspect ration at CDPR: [@LinusTech seems like Witcher 3 is your game, as it supports the 96:9, aka UltraUltraUltraWide aspect ratio lol]
  2. Heads up: I never was a console guy, the only difference for me is the controller (because thats the part that I actually use) and there imo Xbox is far ahead. For the actual topic though: I gotta say, that it Microsoft is behaving like they actually care about playing games and not just(!) their bottom line. The Game Pass (Ultimate) does a great job of offering good value for people on Xbox and PC and Android. Also as mentionend in the last WAN show the Xbox Series S/X have very affordable financing. This Tweet however seems like straigt from heaven - yes ofc. its also marketing bs. but I think that whoever wrote this tweet is an actual gamer themselv. It's hard to express what I'm thinking with words but maybe I could get it across for some of you. TLDR.: Microsoft (Xbox) seems to actually careTM about gamersTM
  3. Very much agreed. As long as they are changing things for the better or are having ongoing costs (e.g. for online music services) I'm not mad if they pass it onto to consumer for a (and then there again there lies the problem:) reasonable price.
  4. https://www.passmark.com/forum/pc-hardware-and-benchmarks/3677-what-is-best-processor-for-complex-excel-workbook From 2012 but still seems to be relevant (?)
  5. If you can share an example of a sheet with the complexity your typically working with I/we could also try and find out whats bottlenecking => what system would work best for you
  6. Hmm gotta say I have a different experience with that. Family member owns a 2017 5er Touring and the software was one of the best for the time. Felt actually usable. But that might just be because it's a newer car? Same thing here. There isn't any problem with the car so far, actually seems super reliable. BUT it was a brand new car and it is leased so if there is any problem down the line I will never know. That being said the Audi A6 he had before had a lot of problems in the time that we had it already.
  7. More or less every German car company was involved in that. BMW to a lesser PUBLICLY KNOWN degree, but that (probably) doesn't really mean anyhting(?)
  8. Yes but no. Might be able to do it where you live but here in Germany if the officials catch you doing that I'm pretty sure your going to be fined heavily because of regulatory stuff.
  9. This is the only thing that actually irritates me. I at least would think that leading in to the future the car brands that look at themselves as being premium would be the ones to NOT include these kinds of money savings. But it seems as if that won't matter.
  10. Yes, BUT you will probably not get as much for reselling the car/if you're leasing the car your probably not allowed to modify it in the first place. Might be able to reverse it without leaving any traces but overall its just an ugly way of "selling" features. Also this might work for seat heating yes, but the article also talks about safety systems and other stuff that's just comes down to software (e.g. heads up display).
  11. Here comes the Linus told you so on WAN show moment: BMW seems to be taking the first real step towards "cars as a service" by making safety and comfort features optional to buy for a limited/permanent time period. Jup, "next-level gouging" seems pretty to be pretty much on point Is this really the group of people that needs to save money? Seems like a lazy excuse to make more money in the end. Also "vehicle as a platform" seems to be the industry term instead of "cars as a service"? I feel like there are already way too many options on cars, especially from German brands (though I myself am from Germany so I might not look at this subjectively). As we have seen with Tesla already. First time posting here, so I'm not experienced with how to summarise the article, sorry for that. My thoughts Well, Linus told everyone and I personally don't see cars as a service not happening in the future. Still this is a terrible move for consumers, as BMW is basically just pulling the EA move here and putting micro transactions into their product.

  12. How did you find out/what did you do to fix it? disable antivirus and reinstall or sth alike?
  13. I could really need it, because welp my brother is using my keyboard (Coirsair K95 RGB) right now... Yeah, thats how you use two computers efficiently ... NOT And it would be nice to have that extra bit of money for a better monitor, which we also still have to buy for him. [Twitter if needed: White Brownie]
  14. Could you suggestt a cheaper one? ;D
  15. Okay, so I currently only have onboard Laptop Audio, but as my audio jack didn't hold the plug as it should any more, I desided to look around for an external sound card. I hope to get better surround sound for gaming, but also generally better audio quality for my Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro. After some research i came up with the Asus Xonar U7. Could you recommend it for me, or are there other better (not to overpriced) options?
  16. A Roccat Kova would be great and I could definitely use a new mouse (my old one is a cheap gaming mouse form almost 3 years ago so yeah...). Twitter name: @White Brownie Thanks for awesome givaways!! :rolleyes:
  17. Hey, I would really love a Corsair Gaming K95 RGB with Cherry MX-Brown for my friend, who is still gaming on an old crappy keyboard. I used it for quite a while already and as much, as lightning isn’t that easy to set up, I would do it for him, because when everything is setup it works quite easily and perfect in my experience. NOTE: A GERMAN keyboard layout would be super nice Link to Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Gaming-Mechanical-Keyboard-CH-9000221-NA/dp/B0149QBRCA/ref=sr_1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1449144489&sr=8-2&keywords=corsair+k95+rgb Link to Amazon.ca http://www.amazon.ca/Corsair-Gaming%E2%84%A2-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B0149QBRCA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449144427&sr=8-1&keywords=corsair+k95+rgb+brown Link to Amazon.de http://www.amazon.de/Corsair-CH-9000062--mechanisches-Keyboard-Schwarz/dp/B00S77737Q/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1449144531&sr=8-2&keywords=corsair+k95+rgb
  18. Hey Linus and the whole LinusTechTips team, I’m a 14 (getting 15 at October) year old guy from Germany. I’m a subscriber since one month and I found your channel while I was in Australia. I’m watching every new video from you guys I can and absolutely love them, because you always get to see everything about high quality pc components (almost all, which you need to know about) and also from both sides (pros AND cons). Also I’m still surprised that I understand more or less everything you guys say, because English isn’t even a second language for me. I find whole the team really congenial and I see, that you guys really love your work. I love computers as well, but unfortunately I don’t even have one, because of my parents. I just have a Laptop and as you can imagine, it isn’t the best (just have a NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M graphics chipL, so I can’t even play BF3). But the problem is, that I love gaming and also building parts into my own PC (which I actually tried at my friend’s one), but I can’t because I don’t have one, I have just a keyboard (I want to get a new one, so I’m still waiting for the Corsair Vengeance K70 RGB to come out and also I’m waiting for your final unboxing video and if you would really recommend it), a mouse and of course a monitor. The probably best moment when I watched one of your videos was, when I saw, that you use the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro which I have myself and just love them. I use them every day for hours and have them on at the moment as well so I’m really happy to see that you love the German quality of these headphones and of course other brilliant German stuff like the Cherry Mx’es. So I’m looking forward for the unboxing of the Corsair Vengeance K70 RGB when it comes out; some more PC building guides and what you personally think about the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (which I will have to buy anyway, because my old Galaxy S3 is more or less destroyed). So yeah, I hope to see all these videos soon and of course a message, which says that I’m the winner of the full Computer build with its awesome processor and these really well designed graphics cards Good luck with your future projects and the whole channel Dominik from rainy Germany
