Seeing cables and wires is not a problem that needs to be solved, and if you dont want to see them inside your case dont get a case with a window. This seems like a nightmare of compatibility problems that will end up driving up the cost of motherboards further. Motherboard manufactures will have to deal with more SKUs, that result in different packaging to denote this dumb config. People will inevitably buy motherboards that dont work with the case they bought resulting in more returns and open box products with increased confusion for new builders. And motherboard manufactures will likely increase the cost of all their motherboards to off set their cost of adding these SKUs and their increase costs that will result from it. Meanwhile, motherboards are already ridiculously priced because of the stupid garbage "features" that manufactures insist on putting on almost every motherboard especially if the motherboard has a high end chipset. Want to get a motherboard without a silly useless metal cover on your PCIE slot? Impossible, and your MB cost more because that useless bit of metal is there. Want to get a MB without RGB? without the needless plastic covers? without a built in IO shield? without a LCD screen? without WIFI? or without a remote button to release the GPU from the PICE slot? Your only options left if you dont want that stuff are the lowest end chipsets. And all that stuff little by little drives up the cost motherboards to the point where we now have $700+ consumer motherboards that have been bedazzled so manufactures can get higher margins while not actually adding value to the end user. And now buying a high end or even just a mid level chipset without these useless "features" needlessly driving up the price is impossible. And Wifi might be a "nice to have if you need to troubleshoot something" but at this point its kind of hard to buy a motherboard without it and motherboards with it cost at least $20+ more with it. And because manufactures insistence on adding all these "features" so they have more to print on the box you end with dumb configs where motherboards have 2.5GB LAN, 10GB LAN and WIFI. Is there even 1 person that will ever actually have a legitimate use case for both of those LAN ports and WIFI in the life of that PC?

edited for wrong info It was reported by Reuters back in 2012 that GM was losing money on every Volt sold when an expert calculated that development cost and BOM cost for each Volt was at $80k+. A VP at GM said it was true that they where not making money on the Volt but with more production and a gen 2 they could make money. At this point it looks like GM has abandoned the Volt and all hybrids so it seems unlikely GM ever will make their money back on it. EVs are on the bleeding edge and the early adopters are paying for it especially if they have to deal with the public charging network. Even people with Teslas are having problems with charging in public with Tesla chargers. Plug in hybrids are great because you get the best of both gas and EV.

Is Frore Systems really trying to get Apples attention with this video? Cause that seems strange. There was clearly someone from Frore Systems just off screen while the mac book was being hacked up. Why have LTT recreate a demo that Frore Systems already showed off at CES and other trade shows? Does no one want to work with them? Why not partner with someone to make upgrade kits for existing devices that dont destroy some functionality of the device? It would have been cool to see a video on a prototype upgraded cooling solution to an existing device.

I wish I could put these in my Steam Deck and Framework laptop.

The RGB lights? I am not streamer, youtuber or a child, no thanks.

I never got the impression that LTT was suggesting people go out and buy almost all of the stuff they feature in these kind of videos and I dont think most people get the impression that they should be buying the garbage that is featured. But for example in this video the projector screen they bought is likely what showed up first when they searched 100 inch projector screen and sorted by cheapest. If they simply just didnt short by cheapest they likely would have found a screen on the first page of results that a lot of people might feel to be a reasonable price, isnt manufactured garbage and someone might actually get good value out of it if they bought it.

It would be nice if LTT stopped making videos where they buy a load of manufactured garbage, LTT could have spent a little more money and time and found products might actually be worth someone buying.

R9 7950X3D it matches or beats the 14900k in gaming performance while being much for power efficient and high core count makes it good for production work tasks, unless you need Intel for some Intel only feature. Since you are going to do production work related things with the PC I suspect getting the most performance will be worth it to you so just go for the 14900k but maybe since you didnt get the 13900k and its been out for over a year now maybe you dont need the maximum performance and stepping down to the 14700k would be better for you because of the better efficiency.

I think I may have not remembered it exactly right but I think these are articles. And does seem like you can now go though Sonos support and unbrick a device that has been put in "recycle mode" or it also looks like people have found ways to "hack" devices that have been bricked with "recycle mode". And as far as the devices that they dont support, that support stopped back in May 2020 and I recall someone saying that a device that Sonos classified as "legacy" in 2020 was some something they where selling new back in 2018 but I cant find anything mentioning that ATM. https://www.theverge.com/2019/12/30/21042871/sonos-recycle-mode-trade-up-program-controversy https://www.theverge.com/2020/1/21/21075043/sonos-software-updates-ending-play-5-connect-zone-players

I love how Linus says "Sonos is very good at supporting their old products", as if they havent tired to stop supporting their products that they recently sold and havent intentionally bricked consumers products to force people to buy new.

Not every company will but a lot do. I wouldnt buy a game without seeing the game play first.

It is very concerning and a big red flag to me that the release is less than 2 weeks away, and at this point and the only gameplay we have seen are short clips edited together.

Given that key switches manufactures claim their switches are good for 10s of millions actuations, a year is a very short period of time for a keyboard. Razer claims their switches are good for 70 million actuations, you would have to actuate that key more than 133 times a minute, every minute for a year to reach that number of actuations. Sure it's possible that switches will fail early but the likelihood that a person or even a small company of 100ish people would experience a switch let alone multiple switches on multiple keyboards die early is not possible unless they damaged the keyboards in some way.

Given that all of these Keyboards have reportedly died with in a year after being put in the dishwasher and the premise of the video is that it is safe to put any keyboard in the dishwasher to clean it this video should really be taken down.

I agree that GN should have contacted LMG for comment on everything before the video was released. I believe that GN should have released video after giving LMG time for a response. I think its a mistake for Linus not to reply with a video or on the WAN Show since he didnt get the chance to respond to the allegations directly to GN for the video. At this point I think most people that have watched the video are calling in to question every review LMG has done or will do in the future.
