Riley and I have known each other for almost 8 years and we've worked together in some capacity for over half of that time. 
 
He asked to review a graphics card as a total joke. That's not his forte and he's perfectly comfortable with that. Even back at NCIX Tech Tips (as he mentioned on the WAN Show today) he got Ivan's help with a lot of the benchmarking stuff. Big deal. 
 
You also need to understand that he's not some intern who isn't sure about his job security or his skills. Evaluating gaming cards may not be one of them but who cares? That's not what he was hired to do.
 
Riley was brought in as a specialist for TechLinked. 
 
Something you guys might also not realize is that Riley is perfectly comfortable dishing out his share of trolling off-camera - even if he's not sure where the limits are yet with the live audience. 
 
If LMG was a horrible place to work and anyone actually took me seriously about this stuff, we'd probably have a little more turnover, don't you think? These are very talented people who could get a job tomorrow if they felt like it. 
 
We tease each other, but it's part of having some fun at work instead of being all corporate. 
 
I messaged Riley to tell him people were upset at the way he was treated on the WAN Show and to make sure he was okay and he had to go find the timestamps people were posting to see why he was supposed to be upset. 
 
So it's probably worthwhile to try re-watching with all of that in mind..
 
 
 

Never cut a PCB unless you want to kill a card.

As @nicklmg said, we have a ton of footage and will probably put something together ourselves, but in the interim, please enjoy this (somewhat shaky) fan video!
 
 
Also yeah, there were mainly 20-30 somethings in the audience. The couple dozen kids (bear in mind there were up to 1100 tickets available) tended to cluster together and near the front of the stage any time Linus was up there. No small percentage of those kids were dragged along by their parents, to boot!

YouTube Red isn't even available in le Canadia so I don't see how LMG would sign up, seeing that they are located in Canada...

Vessel was a great paying platform without any ads and giving back to creator.
 
I don't want to lose another canadian tech news media compagny.
 
No Youtube Red in Canada. I will have to go through ads for every video I watch from now on if I want to support Linus Media Group 
 
 

So AMD's new graphics cards are here, and they are pretty sick... But what's even more sick than hearing about a new graphics card? Owning one for yourself!

Aw yeah man, we are giving away one Polaris 10 video card and one Polaris 11 video card thanks to our good friends over at AMD.
 
So, how do you enter to win one of these fine graphics cards?
 
1. Post a comment below telling us what graphics card you're using in your rig and why you want an upgrade to AMD's Polaris lineup. The two winners will be selected at random, so no, the content of your comment doesn't REALLY matter, but this is more fun than seeing 800 posts of "I want it" or "gibe nao pls." One comment (entry) per user.
 
2. Check back here in about a week when the names of our two winners will be added to the OP (giveaway execution is an art not a science people, so I apologize in advance if winners aren't announced in exactly one week).
 
3. Check your inbox here on the forum to make sure you didn't miss it. Our winners' usernames will be added to the OP here, so if you have any question about the legitimacy of a congratulatory message regarding this giveaway, please be sure to check back here and see if your name has been added.
 
And, while this isn't a requirement, feel free to give our friends over at @AMDRadeon on Twitter a follow.
 
Winners will be PMed from this account on the forum. Please do not consider winner messages from any other user in regards to this giveaway.
