  1. The best part is that mouse you found has way better sensor specs than the TH one.
  2. Tommy Hilfiger recently released their Gaming Set - a keyboard, mouse and headset combo that is possibly the most cynical cash grab we've ever seen. Buy a NZXT Function Mechanical Keyboard: https://geni.us/CmyC Buy a Logitech G305 Wireless Mouse: https://geni.us/7QPr3Up Buy a SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3 Gaming Headset: https://geni.us/RUZVB2 Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  3. This year at CES MSI unveiled a bunch of new laptops and shockingly they're super well built!
  4. I've seen some wild theories here but as someone that has personally dropped things in LTT videos the answer is much simpler - holding things up for camera is really hard. To make sure the camera can see all of something it normally requires holding it by only the tips of your fingers facing away from you. At the same time you have to be looking at the camera, probably doing some movements to stop things from becoming stale, and if something is stationary on the table it has to be propped up to look good on camera - add in doing 7+ videos a week and you have the recipe for a lot of drops.
  5. In talking to Microsoft about the problem I at least get why they don't want to keep S3 as an option. With S3 sleep the firmware of each device is responsible for how it goes to sleep, and of course many devices don't have regular firmware updates or are just broken. By using S0 it is way more secure and overall has less problems sleeping and waking everything, but as we know S0 has it's own problems.
  6. Hello folks, I had a meeting with Microsoft and they are taking our video about Windows Modern Standby very seriously. If your Windows laptop experiences this problem (extreme battery drain while asleep, finding your laptop super warm in your bag with the battery drained) then there are a couple of things you can do. For your own personal troubleshooting you can create a Sleep Study. To look at this open Command Prompt as an admin and type in "powercfg /sleepstudy". This creates a log of your devices battery life and sleep states, maybe there is something interesting in there. More importantly, you can send feedback to Microsoft so they can try and diagnose the problem. Here is how that works: The Feedback Hub is the best way to provide detailed feedback on issues to the Windows engineering team. The tool gathers detailed logs and can run additional diagnostics to help us diagnose and fix issues. Launch the Feedback Hub and give your feedback a relevant title. Click “Report a Problem” then provide more information on the specific issue. Any additional details are valuable. Click Next then choose Power and Battery >> Sleep (it may automatically select this based on what information you provided in the description). Selecting the right area is important as it directs the issue to the appropriate engineering team and gathers relevant telemetry from the system. Click Next, then select New feedback. On the Add more details section, mark as High Severity if you’ve hit the battery drain issue, then choose one of the items below, I’d pick Inability to use my PC if your battery is dead. Continuing in section 4 – this is the critical part – gathering additional data, without this we will not have enough data to diagnose the issue. For the battery drain issues please select Sleep (it should be selected automatically). Click Start Recording, button turns read, it will gather data, wait 10s or so then press stop (you don’t need to go through the actual sleep process, nor do you need the screenshots) it may take a minute or two to process after stopping the recording. You can also put your computer to sleep during the process then reawaken it – it will collect data across the process. Click Submit. The most difficult part of diagnosing Windows Modern Standby problems is getting good data, so with any luck the LTT community can send them boat loads of data to try and get it fixed.
  7. For the last THREE years Windows laptops have been plagued by terrible battery drain while the user ISN'T EVEN DOING ANYTHING. It's gotten to the point where we can't recommend using a Windows laptop because of Windows Modern Standby.
  8. For the first time on this channel we're performing a downgrade.. so Linus and Luke can try Intel Arc! Buy an Intel Arc A770: https://geni.us/AChNbx Buy a Logitech G Cloud: https://geni.us/l6AJu Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  9. Although Dell has a long and storied history history of proprietary BS.. but CAMM is different.
  10. Over the lifetime of RDNA2 AMD has apparently improved the experience a lot, making us wonder... should you actually choose Nvidia for your next GPU? Particularly when AMD left some performance on the table we hope to extract using the Radeon Monster Profile. Check our Hydra: https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-hydra-and-hydra-pro-thread.1796800/ Check our 1usmus: https://twitter.com/1usmus?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author
  11. AMD just announced their RDNA3 GPUs and dang.. it looks amazing for gamers.
  12. As far as I can tell all Arc cards are currently sold out and given I normally use Nvidia because it "just works" there is no way I'll be using Arc. If I need a GPU around $300 I'd choose the 6650 XT.
  13. I'd expect a lot more once RDNA3 drops. For me personally I use Nvidia cards in builds because their NVENC encoders are really freaking good. My job is to create videos and with Nvidia high quality game capture is easier so that's what I grab off the shelf.
  14. Being Delta Electronic's most powerful fan we had to try the THD2048HT - aka Blowzooka - out.
  15. Ryzen 7000 just launched which means one thing - we need to sub-zero it, and this time we're doing it on the cheap. Buy an AMD 7950X: https://geni.us/k61Br Check out the AsRock X670E Taichi: https://geni.us/NsOJJ Buy an MSI 3090 Suprim: https://geni.us/r4Gu9K Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  16. We did over 240 tests on 4 GPUs across 2 CPUs and 2 resolutions in 3 days, I have no clue how you want more performance data.
  17. Intel's Arc Alchemist GPUs are FINALLY launching and these are some surprisingly competitive cards, sometimes.
  18. Starforge Systems are a system builder created by Twitch streamers that gained notoriety for their bad configs on launch. Have they been able to turn it around? Buy an Intel Core i9-12900 (16 Core): https://geni.us/FVWc Buy a Corsair iCUE H150i Liquid Cooler: https://geni.us/wjXFbzQ Buy an MSI PRO z690-A Motherboard: https://geni.us/9DSzAnA Buy a Kit of Corsair Vengeance RT 32GB DDR4 RAM: https://geni.us/SWfSh4e Buy a Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB NVME SSD: https://geni.us/V33TL Buy a Zotac GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12 GB: https://geni.us/Vj0h57Q Buy a Corsair iCUE 5000X RGB ATX Mid Tower Case: https://geni.us/qUNK Buy a Corsair RM1000x 1000 W Power Supply: https://geni.us/kJqI31x Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  19. Nvidia just announced the RTX 4090 and 4080s. Overall Ada looks great... but Nvidia left out some crucial details that have me concerned.
  20. How good of a job did Apple do with the cooling on the Mac Studio?? Well it definitely isn't as good as our custom water cooling solution, I can tell you that much. Buy an Apple Mac Studio Max: https://lmg.gg/R3sZI Buy a Corsair iCUE Commander Core: https://geni.us/jsT6qsf Buy a Corsair Hydro X XC7 RGB: https://geni.us/S6D5ASY Buy a Corsair Hydro X XD5 Pump/Reservoir Combo: https://geni.us/tRw4d Buy a EK CoolStream PE 120: https://geni.us/tAYmm Buy some Go Chiller Pre-Mix: https://lmg.gg/aaARh
  21. Apple's Far Out event showed us why if you don't have an iPhone 14 and an Apple Watch Ultra you will die.
  22. We have the jigs but in my experience the results turn out worse (i.e. a 90deg bend will become a bit less than 90deg after cooling). If I was doing a production run tho I'd definitely use the router to create a jig like Bob and Rod. Tbh just googled LTT Background, here is a link Lol the whole point of the essay is that every time Nerdforge do something "Cyberpunk" people get really mad in the comments thinking it is about the game and only the game.
  23. We finally finished it, the LTT screwdriver is up for sale: https://www.lttstore.com/products/screwdriver
