    WAIT HOLD UP. WE DONT WANT LINUS'S PERSONAL PC. The case has a lot of meaning to him guys. It was a gift from his wife. I believe it was the first gift from her too.
    EDIT: Thanks for all the likes guys! Hopefully Linus or someone from LMG will read this and this will make Linus keep his build. Even if the goal of 100k is made we should convince Linus to do another build maybe, with signatures from the whole LMG family and maybe even his wife. This would let Linus keep the build he has with the special case his wife gave him. Besides, his personal PC would be more special to him than us.

    I've been mining dogecoin for the last month or so and have only just researched the average hash rate for my card. I'm only getting around 500-600kh/s where people are getting as high as 900kh/s. I have a custom watercooling loop so thermals are not the issue, although I can't push the mem clock beyond 1300 (stock 1250). I have tried in both cgminer and sgminer on windows. Thanks in advance

    If he stopped doing videos other people have done, he wouldn't need to make any videos
     
    Components have been covered in more detail by anand/3dguru/verge/tomshardware you name it
    Speakers by serious audiophiles
    Games by all the gaming channels
     
    I watch LTT for LINUS's view on this stuff, I want to see his approach to the product, and how he would implement it/improve it  and how the product compares to his vast knowledge and experience.
     
    I really like the variety, some products I dont enjoy, some I do. But if it was just motherboard and graphics cards reviews I wouldnt bother watching. I want to see products from all over. 
     
    I love technology. and I am glad I have found a youtube channel this is as enthusiastic as me about products out, and future products, no matter the market segment they are from

    I hope they go for 60p versus slightly higher visual fidelity.
     
    Or better yet (crazy concept) let people choose like they can on PC!!!! It's basically a PC in there anyway...

    Looking for a US retailer that posts to AUS though, realized that the markup on video cards is crazy. ($800 for a 780 here)
