  1. Amazing how popular it is. I wonder if there's demand for a slim version? I think a lot of people like me don't need all that space but would still want the high quality product. Were there any conversations about a slim backpack?
  2. This is a good video, I had watched it back when they posted. To me, none of games tested with 8GBs is acceptable or a usable system as a whole, though this can be argued as subjective. The page file was being abused in most of the games, and the 0.1% lows are atrocious is most games. He also came to the conclusion that 8GBs is barely enough, and that was 4 years ago.
  3. I highly doubt this, but we'd need a proper test, like the one in the video, to confirm it. Every computer I've built for myself and others in the last few years had a minimum of 16GBs, even if the people only use it for emails and streaming. 8GBs is not enough anymore, for anybody.
  4. His exact quote is: "There are games out there, now, that utilize more than 8GBs of RAM, but if you're not playing the latest AAA titles, it may not be worth the upgrade for you, yet" Which is just crazy, 8GBs is not enough for using Chrome. Ask any kid with a Chromebook about how laggy their laptops are. The most basic gamer is going to have Steam, Discord and a browser, likely Chrome, open. That alone is 8GBs of memory used.
  5. I think it's wild that Linus went through all the testing and came up with the conclusion that it's not worth upgrading from 8GB yet. People will complain on the comments for sure, because 8GB nowadays is not enough to use Chrome, let alone game properly.
  6. I feel like this is the first case Cooler Master releases that actually replaces the HAF X I bought in 2010. It only took 12 years.
  7. Even though AMD sponsored the video, would be cool to see the same method of setup but for Intel, then comparing with Linux. Setup 1 - AMD W10 vs W11 vs Linux Setup 2 - Intel W10 vs W11 vs Linux
  8. This is why you hire enginners... It turned out great, I would have added some flair to it at the end though, maybe build a cyberpunk city with some acrylic, clay and some rgb. It would look like a city with a giant center building.
  9. This was an incredibly frustrating build to watch, I felt Linus' pain. A lot of choices make absolutely no sense, it's really amazing.
  10. Honestly I was happy when the bed broke in half. It felt so out of place, a sofa there is a much better option, or maybe a recliner chair. The whole setup is amazing, the monitor, pc specs and TV are such a great combination. Andy has good taste and photography.
  11. I think he meant disabling the hardware acceleration option under Firefox settings. Though I also don't see what's wrong with it, is it lagging?
  12. Great video! I wish you guys did a proper typing test at the end though, spend like 1-2 minutes with Linus and the other guys checking out how it sounds without background noise. Also, I think you applied WAY too much lube, especially for linears, and the Stabs weren't lubed.
  13. I loved the video but you guys missed a TON of opportunities, like: Testing with different types of mousepads, with different surfaces, such as Logitechs Powerplay, Artisan Shidenkai, Madcatz Glide 38, Steelseries Qck and etc. (maybe this is why u cant reach 1ms?) Testing with different DPIs, 400 and 800 (used by most CSGO pros), then 1600, 3200 and up. Testing microstutter using different Polling Rate. Yes it does make a huge difference using 1000mhz polling rate and you can actually see it. Testing different games.
  14. Great video. The monitor is, like people said, very well priced for what you get. The stand will probably be the least purchased thing since very few people use it. But now the Mac Pro itself, THAT is a lot of money. The below 16-core version should NOT exist and it should've come with Epyc CPUs, it shouldn't be more than $30k for a full spec. I guess Apple is indeed just not caring about pricing the Mac Pro at all.
  15. As a 3D Artist, I still haven't found a laptop that can comfortably work with Maya without stuttering and overheating (I render on my GPU though), so I'm interested to see these new laptops with RTX trying to gain that market, because right now no 3D artist use one for serious jobs. I don't think Apple is immune, there's a whole market they can't reach, and the market that it does reach, it does it poorly and overpriced. I guess they are lucky Adobe is terrible when it comes to Premiere. Also, the guy in the video is comparing an i9 to i7s, not even mentioning price, not sure why.
