Wicked Cushions, currently getting a lot of sponsor spots on the channels. This is the state of mine, that I bought for a corsair virtuoso, after 11 months. As you can see, they're kinda falling apart. the glue has come unstuck almost completely from one cushion, and both have lots of cracking on the material. I really don't think they're all that great for cooling either. The standard earcups from corsair pushed my ear against the inside of the headset, so they're at least more comfortable in that respect..... but that almost feels like bad earcup design from corsair, not so much good design from WC but I suppose that's debatable. either way I feel like, at the very least, LTT should drop the claim of it being crack free..... it's clearly not.

now test some late 2000s/early 2010s cases that had side panel fans, even something like the HAF932 that had a 230mm side fan would be interesting af.

Sooooo... when can we expect a mouse with Sensel buttons or maybe a small sensel "trackpad" on the side where the thumb rests?

Now throw linux on them to see if performance for basic tasks improves.

What I would have done, as you're wiping the whole NVME, is use gparted to create a GPT partition table on it - then do nothing else.  Leave it empty, let Windows installer create the partitions.

I had this issue when I tried to install windows a few days ago, after having ubuntu on my M2, and I followed this handy guide:
 
The NVMe M.2 drive should be the only storage drive connected.
NVMe SSDs do not appear within the BIOS until Windows creates the system partition with the EFI Boot Sector. Your M.2 SSD contains UEFI driver information within the firmware. By disabling the CSM module, Windows will read and utilize the M.2-specific UEFI driver
Go into the BIOS, under the boot tab there is an option for CSM. Make sure it is disabled. Click on the secure boot option below and make sure it is set to another OS, not windows UEFI. Click on key management and clear secure boot keys. Insert a USB memory stick with a bootable UEFI USB drive with Windows 10 Setup* on it, USB3 is quicker but USB2 works too. A Windows DVD won’t work unless you’ve created your own UEFI Bootable DVD. Press F10 to save, exit and reboot. Windows 10 will now start installing to your NVME drive as it has its own NVME driver built in. When the PC reboots hit F2 to go back into the BIOS, you will see under boot priority that windows boot manager now lists your NVME drive. Click on secure boot again but now set it to Windows UEFI mode. Click on key management and install default secure boot keys Press F10 to save and exit, Windows will finish the install. Once you have Windows up and running, shutdown the PC and reconnect your other SATA drives. * You can obtain the ISO file here:

No teardown to see how much it looks like a pc inside?

i am disappointed.

Because I support the forum and the idea of floatplane. I don't want the forum going anywhere and I feel as if $3, even if it's not directly covering forum upkeep costs, is more helpful than someone viewing a video that has adblock on or for a fraction of the video. I know Youtube has changed and it's not what it used to be but your sacrificing your image, legacy, and general audience for more or the same amount of money is questionable in the long run. It's the whole die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Channels like Marques and Dave2D, they don't post daily mind you, pull in a greater sub to view ratio and don't use clickbait to this extent. Dave has elegant thumbnails and not directly misleading titles. But he is only supporting one person rather than a company so it's not completely apples to apples. I guess I would rather see less videos that are higher quality and well thought out than filler with paid promotions. But if that means keeping the doors open and forum up I guess that's the way it is.
