Usually you wanna get the best single gpu setup rather than the same performance split over GPU because of reasons everyone else has already mentioned e.g. Better stability, less micro stutter - the question is:
Why on Earth aren't you waiting for Pascal? Sure if they are too expensive get the 980, but the titan class cards debut soon, it would suck if you spent all that money and then had your gpu immediately outclassed

I should clarify,  "hack"  and "bad side effects" go hand in hand when the gpu is working fine and with no issues - all I'm asking is what are the implications of doing this hack.
 
The photo I have attached is a picture of my GTX750, and as some of you know, the card usually doesn't need external power. But the Eagle eyed of you will have noticed the 6 large circular solder blobs...
 
The question is, I know I don't need the power, but does anybody know what happens when you put the 6pin connector on and use it? Has anybody done this before to overcome power limits? Should there be a Linus Tech tips video on this because it is crazy, unnecessary, and putting perfectly fine hardware at risk of death? 
 
Thanks for reading

It depends if the card has the necessary circuitry to use the power and if those solder blobs indeed lead anywhere.  If they do,  then your card might boost higher in situations where power is the limitation. 

Do you care about this card? No? Do eeet!

WE MUST FIX THIS!
 
Haha jk... Unfortunatley we have no control over who YouTube runs as pre-rolls on our content. Glad everyone still wants to build it beautiful though. You should.

I seem to be experiencing a bug in which a videos by Linus Media Group are being monetised with a website creator that isn't squarespace? Please elaborate so I can build it beautiful

I dont think you will be getting it for long, not long at all. If you get the 750 you will have to upgrade sooner than if you went for the more powerful solution, which you could delay the upgrade for longer.

Ok. I did a SLI guide and now time to do a vRAM/memory bandwidth guide. A lot of people seem to be confused about vRAM in general. Well, here we go.
 
Let's clear up some misconceptions about vRAM! 
 
 
What does vRAM size have to do with gaming?
 
 
Bonus: What happens if I don't have enough vRAM that a game asks for for certain settings?
 
 
And now resolution, Anti Aliasing and operating systems
 
 
And now about multiple monitors
 
 
Now, onto memory bandwidth and memory bus and such. You may wanna skip this if you know already and are only here for the vRAM size portion above, but I might as well be thorough if I'm doing this. Spoiler tags save the day!
 
vRAM types & memory clocks
 
 
Next, memory bus and memory bandwidth!
 
 
Extra: Memory bus + mismatched memory size section
 
 
And the GTX 970 gets its own section! Hooray!
 
 
FAQ
 
 
Windows 10 and nVidia 353.62
 
 
Final tidbits and stuff
 
 
I started writing this guy mainly for the top section, to denounce misinformation people seem to have regarding vRAM and its relation to memory bandwidth, but I figured I might as well just go the full mile and explain as best I can about what most people need to know about GPU memory anyway. If I've somehow screwed up somewhere, let me know. I probably have. I'll fix whatever I get wrong. And thank you to everyone who has contributed and corrected things I didn't get right! Unlike my SLI guide, much of the information here was confirmed post-writing.
 
If you want the SLI information or the mobile i7 CPU information guide, they're in my sig!
 
Moderator note: If you believe any information found in this guide is incorrect, please message me or D2ultima and we will investigate it, thank you. - Godlygamer23

Bit mean yep... stereotypically yep yep... card was not dead because I played on it for like...hours without problem. And my grammar maybe isn't the best because i'm not English. so im sorry. and about oc or not... idk. it's asus strix card. its factory oc. it's my first "high end" card so idk.
 
I like to point out, i played on it with over 30 games trying all different things and settings and all worked flawless. after I did
 

Lol "asses" - that little write up of yours is great, I'd always wondered what TDP actually referred to

Adreno is an anagram of Radeon, what's your point?
 
What about shag melts? That's an anagram of TheSLSAMG.

lol 

You could overclock the 970, as it overclocks better than the 390, and get better performance.

the first half of your post is very true, and factual.
 
the second half is straight up personal preference.

How did I know someone would do this

Most of use are to young to know.
Apparently Linus wanted a filler answer and people like Turnip over Potato!

Did someone say "people who love Apple"?

from my understanding they put a vegetable in every straw poll  so turnip showed up and people liked it.

I think it's covered in this thread:http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/401961-will-someone-explain-what-started-vote-for-turnip/
 
it seems vegetables were used as troll answers to polls on the WAN show. when they chose turnip, it stuck.

@FlufflesMcBob  so, i managed to contact WileyFox
 
"What are your plans if any, for a US release?"
 
"There are plans, but nothing we're in a position to announce just yet. We can say that we're focusing initially of getting our handsets out in Europe first, but that we do have our eyes on the US and fully intend to come across as soon as we possibly can."
 
 
 
sounds like good news!
