    Are these all out of stock? I can't find them on NCIX or Performance PCs. I hope they do a second run.

    So Vessel remembered that I'm supposed to have a free year and stopped asking me for my cc info. Beta testing ftw!
     
    Linus and Vessel are like an abusive relationship that we can't step away from. I know I could just wait to watch it on yt, but I'm addicted to that sweet Linus video lovin' such that I keep coming back to Vessel to get the videos as soon as they come out.
     
    @LinusTech mentioned on the wan show that he didn't think patreon would work so well because they have so many videos, but patreon also has a monthly subscription option (which I think would make more sense for LMG).  Like I mentioned before, a youtube channel that gets about 1/100 the views of LTT pulls in over $16,000/mo, which has been growing over the last 16 months ( https://www.youtube.com/user/acedtect/videos & https://www.patreon.com/acedtect )
     
    I know Linus doesn't like to cede control too much and that no one wants to give up a cut of crowd funding money, which is why they use the forum subs, but sometimes it helps to rely on the infrastructure of partners to help you grow. There's a reason so many groups come up with massive crowdfunding programs through kickstarter and the like opposed to doing it themselves...
     
    I really don't like how we watch the videos on vessel and then we can't come back to LTT.com to talk about them because the videos don't get discussion threads until they launch on yt.

    I signed up and watched all the videos on the first day. I liked having extra LTT videos to watch.
     
    The UI and video quality for vessel are absolutely atrocious. I'm not even posting my username or bothering with this giveaway because vessel is that bad. YouTube's UI  and video quality aren't anything to write home about, but they are still infinitely superior to vessel. What's the point of having all these expensive cameras and equipment if your most hardcore fans watching early are relegated to shit video quality and an overall poor experience?
     
    I suggest LTT considers crowd-funding in a patreon manner. Consider the fact that these patreons have fanbases that are much smaller than Linus's: 
     
    https://www.patreon.com/acedtect($175,000+/annum)
    https://www.patreon.com/nightattack($110,000+/annum for one video/week)
     
    ... these videos get a few thousand of views compared to hundreds of thousands of views for LTT videos. The overall experience when watching these shows is far superior to vessel shit. You might think that this crowd-funding is not sustainable, but these two have been going for well over a year and have only increased over time.

    Hello, I recently figured out how to change the minimum fan speed on my Gigabyte 970 G1, and figured I'd share how I did it with you all.

    DO NOT TURN YOUR PC OFF DURING THE FLASHING PROCESS UNLESS YOU WANT A $330-$700 PAPERWEIGHT.
     
    REMEMBER TO DISABLE YOUR VIDEO CARD DISPLAY DRIVER AS I MENTIONED IN THE VIDEO BEFORE FLASHING THE ROM
     
     
     
    I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WORKS ON OTHER CARDS OTHER THAN 9XX SERIES, YOU'LL HAVE TO FIND OUT YOURSELF

    You show skyrim uses close to 4GB ram on your 290 there. This shows an sli 760 setup having a 20-30% advantage over 290 in skyrim at 2560x1600p.
