  1. Oh I'm definitely not buying it, was just making the point i remember a day when Alienwares were just overpriced and used cheap components. Now they just use cheap components.
  2. To my knowledge almost all of those cheap 25$ keys are, well they were purchased through less than kosher means.
  3. 720 does not include the tax. It also includes the mail in rebate discounts. Which is not exactly out the door price.
  4. Was bored today so i was trying to find the most budget gaming OPC I could built. Always built my own PC's because well it's easy and it's cheaper. For some reason or another I ended up on Alienware's pre built pc's and to my surprise, for their base model, I could not build that PC for cheaper than the specs were, even using the crappiest/cheapest parts I could find. Alienware Specs: Intel® Core™ i5 8400 AMD Radeon™ RX 560 with 2GB GDDR5 8GB, 2666MHz 1TB (64MB Cache) 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s Windows 64 bit on board wireless their case. Shipped price with tax: 770$ ( This is with their 10% off special going on right now ) PC part picker same specs/absolute cheapest could make. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/T3NfKZ Shipped price with tax: 796.47$ (didn't include wireless) ( mail in rebates would bring that down to 769.47$, but i really don't think that should be counted.) And to be honest I much prefer the Alienware case to the much better looking than the cheapest case i could find. This might be the first time I have ever said this.... but I would rather buy than build. It's cheaper, the case looks better and I would go ahead and say it is better than the 18$ case that was in the partpicker. Only downside I can see is the bloatware.
  5. Sorry, don't frequent the forum, just thought I'd give my 2 cents.
  6. Been watching LTT for a long time, always a good way to start or finish a day. But lately the really dumb thumbnails have gotten to a point that it really stops me from watching, it's almost as bad as those thumbnails that are just photoshoped pictures of a plane crashing into cars or other click baity pictures. Like the one where Linus has 2 mini graphics cards in "The TINIEST Nvidia SLI Setup EVER?" Look I get it, this is a business, people don't work for free, and the 140k red camera doesn't buy itself. And if thumbnails like this get you more views then well, fuck it right? That being said, I just thought i should give some feedback from someone who has watched a lot of your content and just can't stand the click bait direction you guys have headed. Thought that any feedback is good feedback. Just my 2 cents.
