  1. Before you game, work, or watch on your new PC, there are some important things to ensure your CPU, GPU, RAM, and more are all working as intended. Good news: It’s easy when you know how! Buy a Surge Protector: https://geni.us/RWleE Buy a KINGTOP Headphone Mic Splitter: https://geni.us/ITZfJN Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.
  2. The iPhone revolutionized the smartphone industry and put one in nearly everyone’s pocket. But the iPhone didn’t appear from nowhere - it owes much of its inspiration to the ill-fated Apple Newton.
  3. Emily,

    if apple allowed external graphics cards, do you think they could be a legitimate contender for gaming? 

  4. Apple’s M2 Ultra powered Mac Pro is the final step in their Apple Silicon transition. But without GPU support or meaningful expansion, is it worth nearly double the price of a comparable Mac Studio?
  5. Hi Emily I am very proud of you. I am also a transgender. I have been watching linus tech tips over the few years and i did notice some subtle changes in you that i think only another transgender person would notice. I have been transitioning for a little under a year and know what you are going through. You have my full support Emily and congrats on coming out.

     

    With much love

      Hi Crystal, I'm also Crystal! 🙂

  6. Apple’s Mac Studio got an upgrade with M2 Ultra. But all is not what it seems over at Apple’s marketing department… Is it truly a worthy successor to M1 Ultra?

  7. well now we know what the "not telling" in the gender field is for 😛

     

    congrats on coming out, emily!

  8. Multi-GPU setups like SLI and Crossfire once ruled the PC gaming scene, but micro stuttering and development complexity have made them obsolete. Why, then, are we boldly predicting that the future of gaming is multi-GPU? Ross Tregemba's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@gtastuntcrew302
  9. 3dfx was the king of the graphics card world in the 90s, and in a flash they were gone. The Voodoo 5 6000 was the last GPU 3dfx produced, and released – Could it have changed the face of PC gaming?
  10. Valve’s Steam Machine was their first game console, and we’ve got a prototype! But it’s broken… Can we fix it? And if we can, should we, or should we have left it in the past? Donate to Free Geek Twin Cities: https://www.freegeektwincities.org/donate
  11. They weren’t around for that long, but IBM’s microdrive had a major impact on multiple industries.
  12. Both AMD’s Threadripper and Intel’s Core X HEDT processors have been dormant for years now. But Intel’s Sapphire Rapids Xeon W is the spiritual successor, and hits AMD where they stopped competing.
  13. An entire generation of games are unplayable unless you kept your old PCs. Isn’t there some emulator we can use to bring the early days of 3D graphics back to life? There is! It’s called PCem.

  14. Everyone who uses a computer uses Windows at least sometimes. But how many Windows features are they using? There’s more to the operating system than you might think, even if you’ve used it a lot!
