His videos on e-Bikes are in my opinion some of the best content the LTT channel has put out. Specifically the video about the Wave 2.0, It was interesting for him to bring up the argument about whether reselling OEM products is okay or not, and I still think that conversation is extremely important when it comes to products on Amazon, etc. Really hope to see him host some more videos now that we don't see Luke much on the main channel.

Correct me if I'm wrong as I haven't looked into it in awhile, but doesn't Thunderbolt 2/Mini Displayport only support monitors up to 2560x1600? Take this with a grain of salt though, I could be completely wrong.

peach cobbler maybe

I just remembered about this keyboard, I think it's the best option. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LYV02W8/ref=twister_B01N291CC3?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 Once again iKBC is a brand I would recommend in a heartbeat, and this is 30$ less than the ducky.

I personally just dropped around 350$ to build my endgame keyboard. Well worth the price imo seeming how it's gonna be what I use for the next 5 or more years (hopefully). And yeah, the new k70 lux font is atrocious, used to be really clean but now it's far too "gamery" for my tastes.

Costs about the same as a k70 rgb at most places, but of course all keyboards would suffer from the RGB tax lol. Just curious what is your budget?

Back when I got mine when it first came out I had 3 led's die within 2 months, resulting in me returning it and sticking with my Razer Blackwidow 2014 which had one dead switch lol. It was probably a dud but i've seen a lot of complaints from others about it. On the mouse side of things, my M45 died within 6 months. My friend also received a k95 that started malfunctioning and would work then randomly just turn off. Nowadays, as someone who builds keyboards and uses custom keycaps I just don't see the value in Corsair keyboards when other companies have offerings on par or better for the same price. Things like a standard bottom row and a clean aesthetic I just don't find in Corsair's keyboard offerings. I get why people like them, but for me I wish LTT and other tech channels would shine more light on the non mainstream companies. Like they haven't made a video on a ducky product in years.

Don't even talk about the best switches till you type on some 67g Zealios haha

You can just wait till it's in stock lol, worth the wait.

I think I know just what you would want. Look at this, https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=2345 I would just stay away from brands like Corsair and Razer personally, and I am saying that from personal experiences from purchasing their keyboards, But Logitech and CoolerMaster are also good choices (Just stay away from those Romer-G Switches). Ducky is a really well respected brand in the enthusiast keyboard community so if you want a full white keyboard, get this. Don't think it has a wrist rest but just buy a nice one from somewhere else and use that.

Obviously we can't know the future, but hopefully AMD will follow intel and release yearly architecture updates for Ryzen. One thing to remember is that getting a CPU will last multiple years, and eventually there will probably be a new socket that gets introduced for newer cpu's (Intel introduced x299 and the lga-2666 socket this year replacing x99 with 2011-v3). If you wanted a newer AMD CPU in the future, You would probably be able to pick up a used R7-1700 for pretty cheap as an upgrade down the road, or whatever is the follow up to this years Ryzen 7 lineup down the road (R7 2700 or something along those lines probably). I think it's safe to say AMD is going to stick with Ryzen and stay on the AM4 platform with b-350 and X370 chipsets for the forseeable future, as they just now managed to pull some market share away from Intel after all these years of only being a player in the more budget oriented CPU market. Just remember that this CPU should last you a number of years, I am going on my 4th year with an old AMD FX-8350 and just now am planning to upgrade.

I agree with others that the R5 1600 would be a better option. While technically most games prefer the higher IPC of Intel CPU's, this results in very small gains in most games. Having more cores and threads with the R5 results in better multitasking performance usually, and since most people usually have things like Discord, Spotify, or Chrome running while they play games, I would say an R5 makes more sense than an i5 in the long run.

For the first part, that is why I said "basically", because yes, there are exceptions (like what you linked), but most laptops that are commonly bought by people have soldered CPU's. For the second part, I included the word "technically" , because there are some situations where a motherboard swap can be done, and a lot where it can't be done. These were just broad statements, as every laptop model will obviously vary, seeming how they are all proprietary designs, and things like power restraints and differing connections inside the specific laptop could mean you are stuck with whatever cpu you've got. I didn't specifically say "you can change motherboards in a laptop", I rather said "it's possible"

Basically every laptop sold today has a soldered on cpu (Never actually seen one that doesn't), but technically you can upgrade the cpu if you were to buy a brand new motherboard that is from the same model laptop but has a better cpu.

I did some looking around online and found this forum post where a guy replaced his Asus G20's gtx 960 with a 980. The link is below if you are interested, not sure how easy it would be to fit something in there, but do some research and see if you can find another forum post somewhere to find a compatible GPU. Link to the mentioned forum post: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?54457-ROG-G20-Overhaul EDIT: I completely forgot, when I say compatible GPU, I am referring to finding a gpu that fits the size constraints of the case that the Asus G20 has, since its a small form factor case. Also, if you do get a gpu, Try to find one with a blower style cooler on it, since it would push the hot air out of the case.
