  1. You can: - Verify mobo firmware and make sure it's up to date - If you have any RGB magnetic strips, consider removing them - Double check once more the drivers for the gpu - Change power cable from and hdmi cable from monitor - Reinstall entirely gpu drivers from scratch and geforce entirely if the above fails - If you don't have geforce to begin with, install it - I was having the same issue. The above seems to have fixed it for me. I also have an AOC monitor, and have been no issues since I did the above.
  2. It's 15% not 5% in Canada. And no, I don't rush out to buy something. It's not about that, but merely about the respect I feel Canadians deserve from other Canadians. Simple as that. When a Canadian rises to where they rise... I want them to remember why they are where they are.
  3. Because I seem to be the only person here who understands the disrespect I am referring about. So... why argue or debate with others? No one has the right to tell me how I feel OR how I should feel. If I feel disrespected, I have the right to feel that way.
  4. I do notice, but not when he talks about important things. As for the rest of your comment, I have no comment to make as I disagree 100% with you.
  5. I get what you're saying. But... I don't. I assume that he would be willing accommodate his native viewers. I would. Wouldn't you? As for Edgar and Marques, I have no clue who they are. If you mean Marques Brownlee, I don't care about his content personally. As for iJustine... I really, really, really don't like her XD The reason I like the youtubers I like is because they are authentic. EDIT: I don't sub to people who are authentic, and never will. I value honesty in terms of who and what they represent.
  6. And that's the problem. USD is not universal. It will never be, as the currency fluctuates so much all the time. Thus far, everyone who responded (save for Linus), is not Canadian. I can't imagine you have to worry about actual USD currency... you're not in North America but in New Zealand (in your case). When we deal with USD currency, we always have to guesstimate, as conversion tools (including PayPal) is never accurate. Let's say you are using a US based website, and you want to build and you only have say $1500 to spend (CAD), maybe you'll end up spending $1650 because the conversion methods are fairly inaccurate. So yeah, CAD vs USD matters.
  7. It depends for what. They differ tremendously when it comes to apps like PayPal for example in their conversion rates.
  8. I'm just going to ignore you. Also, I'm not whining, and have zero explanation to give you about anything OR even care about what you say. You are being a troll, so I will press the 'ignore' button, as I don't cater to trolls. Oh, and if you are gonna troll someone, at least read the entire post. Goodbye.
  9. Yes, they can be wrong. I worked in a financial firm for 3 years, I know trust me. There is no person, tool or company that can effectively "guess" something 100% of the time.
  10. You can use any conversion tool you want (google or otherwise), but it never means it's accurate. It could be off by a dollar as it could be off by ten. So, even though I think I am paying say $350 CAD for example, I could in fact be paying $370.
  11. We are very different on every level for the most part (especially politics). As for the accent... it's different. I sound very different from a Texan for example, or even someone from New Jersey. I have an issue when people say USD is universal... it's not. I know CAD, but USD? I can guesstimate, but more often than not, my guess it either sorta accurate or completely off. If I buy something, it's NEVER in USD. If I go on a website that is US only (which happens rarely, but it has), I have no clue how much I am paying.
  12. Let me ask you this: If India was in Pakistan's shadow, and they didn't know who your Prime Minister was for example, or who was your best cricket player was or other obvious things about India (and they were the equivalent of the US in terms of their position in the world), how would you feel? That's what we Canadians have to deal with on a daily basis. The times I heard Americans say they didn't know where Canada was, or who our Prime Minister was or what is our country's Capital was among a myriad of countless things we endure (just to be clear, that's not everyone). Or there are times when people from other countries clump us with the Americans, when we are not only a different nation but are also very different culturally. If Linus was Indian and you felt that same disrespect I feel right now... I would support how you'd feel. You know why? Because when we have a public figure that is great at what they do, they should remember who they are, and most importantly where Smallville is.
  13. I understand what you're saying, but again, you are as well missing the point. It's about respect more than anything, which I feel, as I fellow Canadian, am lacking.
  14. I understand that, which still isn't my point Linus. Both of you are merely responding to a single point, not the main one whatsoever. The main point is that Canadians deserve that Linus remembers who he is and that any videos he makes caters to Canadians as well. Otherwise, what differentiates you from Bitwit, Paul or other US youtubers in the same genre? That's what I'm talking about more than anything. I'm getting tired of everything being catered to our neighbours to the South. You should understand, you're Canadian too. Before you became who you are now, people looked down on you too because you are Canadian.
  15. Dear Linus... this is hard to write, but I hope you will actually read this. One of the things which truly frustrates me with Linus MG is the fact that you clearly omit Canadian viewers. I understand 100% that most of the viewers may be American, which by the way, isn't very hard to accomplish when the US has ten times the population that Canada does. Regardless, in terms of either giveaways, or the currency you use to speak about PC parts for example, or even when using Amazon's .com version of the website instead of the .ca version... these are things that puts me off and draws me to watch other content more often than not for the past three or so months. Can we, Canadians, get the recognition we deserve by an actual Canadian youtube channel? Is this so hard to ask? I'm frankly getting tired of the disrespect that LMG shows us towards their own fellow Canadians. Don't get me wrong, I do respect LMG, but I would like that SAME respect back. I used to love your content and your team's for that matter, but I've mostly been watching Anthony, Madison, James and Riley more than actually you recently. Not because I dislike you, but rather because I feel that the Canadian connection that we, the Canadian viewer, should have with you, isn't there anymore. That is hard to say or even accept, as I prefer Canadians when it comes to entertainment (so do Americans, hence why the best actors after all, are Canadian). If we consider the last video featuring a giveaway (from a third party mind you), once more Canadians are excluded. I can understand excluding a country an ocean away because of logistics, shipping price etc., but Canada? Seriously? The way I see it... LMG themselves draws the TV, and if it's a Canadian winner, then Vizio ships it to Linus and LMG as a professional courtesy, and LGM then ships it. I understand that actual giveaway may be for any random US customer (and not just LGM), but why bother sponsoring your video if that's the case? I don't know. Nonetheless, my original point is valid, and my concern about us Canadians being consistently excluded from it's own Canadian made and born Linus and team... is frustrating. A real turn off for someone who feels that Canadian viewers are being scorned by another Canadian for no reason. Is it that hard to use BOTH CAD and USD when speaking about pricing? Is it that hard to have two Amazon lists? Which would most likely be the same but using different currencies. Or hell, even using the exact same pcpartpicker list on 2 different tabs, with two different currencies? I don't expect you to do that for two hundred countries, but for your own country that you currently live in, and were born in? Just saying... Linus, you are Superman, Canada is Smallville. Don't forget who you are, nor who we are. On that note, take care.
