    I might be wrong, but didn't Linus recently mention that showcases (Which this clearly is, but not labeled as such) would be extra videos in addition to the regular content?

    @7.30 It is mentioned "We didn't want this sponsored content to interfere with our regular upload schedule"

    What's wrong with the audio? Sounds like a muffler on some parts, killing all the high frequencies.

    Have to admit I was quite disappointed with this video. It seemed rush despite there being a 2-month jump in the middle.
    The metrics before upgrading anything showed that the CPU is actually not close to modern-day hardware even compared to two-three generations back even though that was one of the main points Anthony was taunting at the beginning of the video. Including Anthony's thought on how navigating through the server's directories seemed snappy after the poor benchmark results was really odd as--as Anthony said, "I mean browsing directories isn't a big thing, but, you do it a lot".
    Loading up a 1080p video from YouTube on a $1000+ PC from a few years back is also something most people would expect to run just fine.
    I thought it would get better once Anthony started getting into the hardware but seeing him complain about the small number of usb ports - 6 on the io of the motherboard - then have him pull out a PCIe expansion card which has just one USB A port and another USB C port seemed like a poor recommendation, to be fair, Anthony mentions the existence of others which can provide more. Anthony also puts in a 2.5 GbE controller but then just a few seconds later, after the time jump, mentions it might not be helpful for you and it isn't even providing any benefit for the desktop they have either.
    Anthony proceeds to check the WiFi speeds which are incredibly slow compared to Ethernet then simply states, 
    "it's not quite the upgrade we were hoping for" which Anthony states after testing the WiFi adapterseems to sum up most of this video quite well.
     
    We aren't told what exactly Anthony did to fix the ram issues, did he simply put the old 8GB stick back in? It's unclear as all we're told is that its running 1600 mHz memory once again. Stating the games are running good while two crashes had just occurred also doesn't seem like the best description.
     
    Overall, the number of issues that cropped up in this video makes it seem more like Linus troubleshooting the Six 8k Workstations one CPU vs a informative video.

    I'm up and running, joining the cause! Sadly still unable to get CPU tasks.

    The clip used at 11.35 of CPU delidding does conccern me a little bit. I sincerely hope someone watching this video is not going to think that is a normal thing to do and wreck their CPU.

    The product placement really annoyed me throughout the video. I really hope this will be a one time thing.
     
    I also hope they did somehow remove this for Floatplane users, since still serving ads to paying subscribers is not a nice move, to put it nicely.
