    New drivers did wonders for those Intel cards.

    jooroth18 got a reaction from xg32 in First day on Intel ARC (just dumping my thoughts)   
    I figured after a year intel ARC would be more polished, so i bought an Intel NUC Phantom Canyon with the i7 12700H and Arc A770M 16gb for around $600
     
    I will say, when it works, its brilliant. On my 1440p monitor, games are smooth, the system isnt too loud, and it feels far better than my ancient laptop.
     
    However, when booting up a game for the first time, be sure to change settings individually. Certain settings can break the game, and alt f4 doesnt help.
     
    Also sleep is just broken. When i wake from sleep, my system looks like its on drugs, see pic below.
     
    I havent done any emulation yet, i plan to set it up soon when i get the time. I hope the ARC GPU can do it well, im sure it can as most emulators use vulkan, which runs well on ARC.
     
    Dispite the need to troubleshoot new games i install, i have to say this system is still awesome. For such a tiny computer that i can throw in a small backpack with some controllers to play games with friends, its incredible. The best part is it uses the exact same power brick as my laptop.

    jooroth18 reacted to LogicalDrm in Any word on when the week of downtime officially ends?   
    Reading announcements made, it was only stated that production would start, not exactly that any videos would be posted. Saturday and Sunday are prime-time days for any release, so those are days to be watched for main channel content.
     
    Personally I think they shouldn't do WAN Show. And if they do, it shouldn't be in regular format, but more of panel discussion between CEO, Linus and Gary (maybe someone else too). No sponsor spots, no merch messages answered. But rather addressing core questions and worries raised by community. Even better would be to use external host, but I don't think they have that luxury in Vancouver with other big-name Youtubers.

    If LMG needs more time to get their work processes and policies in place, then I'm all for it. It's ready when it's ready typically ends with better results, than trying to hit an arbitrary deadline

    I dont think thats what he means. He is talking about it in the context of the time between her and their response. While we wait for his response, we shouldnt downplay what she said, as it can put an extreme mental toll on her well being, if everything turns out to be true. 
     
    We should be supportive, but not praying for the downfall of LMG, rather demanding answers.

    I love Ian's presentation style, just neutral facts. 

    About 1/3 of the way in and this is a good look at the situation thus far.

    Ian's unkind critique of some parts of this community are absolutely warranted and needed.  

    Ian's critique of Steve's opinion interjection is very interesting.  

    The review process where he talks about teams....

    A small team that is totally on page from technicians, to writers to editing all working together with excellent communication, can be assembled within a larger organization, at least on an ad hoc basis for key projects like new GPU/CPU launches.

    LTT has no direct control over the Reddit subforum. They are likely implementing restrictions so that new users do not come in and flood the site with arguments. 
     
    The LTT Forums, on the other hand are hosted by LMG, but are run entirely by volunteers and are not officially LMG staff. We allow all criticisms, discussions and comments so long as they are civil and follow the Community Standards.

    jooroth18 got a reaction from Mr. Rabbit in Madison reveals experiences working at LMG   
    I see some people here picking sides, and i feel the need to remind yall, we do not have the full picture.
     
    All we have is her side, and the sides of some ex employees. Linus did make a statement to the verge, but its just a "please wait for out official response as we do an investigation"
     
    Before you decide what hill you want to die on, maybe stop and wait for all sides to come forth, and then make your decision from there. This is a serious situation, and some twitchy reactions can be unessissarily damaging to either LTT or Madison.
     
    That is all i have to say.
