While I agree wireless mice are superior due to no cable and Logitech's implementation of wireless is faster than some extremely popular wired mice (like the deathadder 3G)... This video doesn't explain that or even bring anything useful to the table. I'm glad it was made, but I don't see t being useful for anyone. People need to try good wireless mice, but the good ones are all also rather expensive, especially compared to wired equivalents as noted in the video. And even some pricey ones are shit (again as mentioned in the video, with Razer's wireless mice.) I know I probably won't ever go back to a wired mouse, and I'm looking forwards to Logitech remaking the G700 with their new g900/g403 wireless technologies and superior buttons.

AMD 7950 boost by sapphire. Looking to upgrade to Polaris for the better frame rates. Waiting for aftermarket cards but they seem to be taking forever.

Is something so short-throwing really needed? 4 inches for 60 inch screen? Maybe... But it's also extremely good quality, maybe I just need to try one out to see the appeal of such short throw. Always considered 4 feet back to be about half way from where I'd sit, so no problem mounting something that far back. Then again, maybe I just haven't experienced it yet. Quality of it tho, damn son.

Kova would be great. It appears to be a more ergonomic mouse, and the side fins on the mouse buttons seems neat. Then again, either one would probably be great. Would love to get a solid performer for FPS games.

Well, this box looks fantastic. Looks like a definite console killer. 3D print a VESA mount and it's perfect.

That headset is rather beautiful. I'd like one.

I've been running two games on my rig for a while now using a program called SoftXpand. It's ~$50, and is fairly easy to set up. Running a Phenom II x6 @ 3.6ghz, 16gb ram, and a single 7950 Boost. Some games work, some games don't, anything that works is playable on dual 1080p. Mostly it's mouse issues in FPS games, but I'm able to run two copies of Guild Wars 2, which was the original goal. I haven't watched the entire video yet, but this is my setup so my girlfriend and I can play together, since we're strapped on money and space. It uses the same copy of windows, so we don't need more than one windows install. It's a RDP setup, so it's not any taxing on anything really. Very little setup to get it functional. Edit: Your method has much longer setup, but seems more maintenance free. Little more set-and-forget than SoftXpand, but it's also more expensive and requires a second (or third, really) gpu. If I ever need to actually build a rig for dual-setup again, I'll probably go this method, but until then SoftXpand seems to cover easy mode setup better. _____ Stolen from my youtube comment. The idea is nice, but this method is terribly expensive. Not much point besides workstations to do this expensive method. The setup requires a bit of work, multiple GPUs and a burner GPU, as well as owning 2 OS copies, and similarly priced software (unraid vs softxpand) I think you can get past the 2 OS copies since it's the same motherboard, they should register. But three GPUs and slightly more expensive software pushes the price up a fair bit. HOWEVER, as said above, this does seem to work a lot better than softxpand. Virtualization rather than RDP means ALL games work with little compatability issue, which is my only real complaint. Not having to run sandboxie or similar systems for things and no conflicts with things like Punkbuster are well worth the extra money. Plus, you get a full GPUs power without having to share.

Lovely. Been wanting a NUC or a BRIX for some time now. Thanks for the giveaway Linus.

The Kuhler. It performs great (in comparison to other AIOs) and it looks cool too. The pump mounts just look good imo.
-
The extreme looks insane. Def. my choice of the two, and well, any 970 card out right now. Thing looks fantastic.

That's my favorite techtips video. It was posted right when I got my first tablet and actually cared about keeping it alive. Like literally a few days at most. As for Jay's videos... That's a tough one. I found him when he was at around 200 subscribers, and I've liked most of his content since. This would be one of the best.

Thanks linus for giving me the free phone. Or giving it to someone else if you really want to. Edit: following the rules. Dbran looks awesome. The wrap looks great. The Z2... My favorite thing is probably the side buttons and the fact the screen isn't TN anymore. The side buttons look like they aren't terrible.

Desperately need a phone. Not having to pay for it would be awesome. Getting a fantastic phone for free would be the best. Thanks Linus!
