This aspect ratio for the videos is really quite stupid. I've heard the reasoning, but imo it's dumb reasoning. 16:9 looks fine on pretty much everything and when people with phones that have this weird af ratio watch anything but your content guess what? They're more than likely subject to 16:9. I have a surround setup and with how Youtube treats that, your videos look awful. Most of the time it's ok, I can ignore the side bits. But when you guys put text over there, and you've done it a few times now that i've said I was gonna make a post about it, it's almost impossible to read without pausing and thinking about it. Ignore that my monitors are different heights (thanks for the different mounting points Acer) i'm used to it, but for real just take a look at this crap. It's awful.

And yes I see the same info reflected at the bottom of the screen where they're pulling it from but this isn't the first time there's just been text all over the place that's super hard to read at a glance.

FX-6300 is where it's at

Nah, the AMD Sempron 3000+ is the best of the best for gaming.  How do I know?  Because it has a + on it, so it must be good.

Nope. You're wrong.

 

The FX 8320E is the best, of the best, of the best, in everything. How do I know?

 

It has 8 cores, can be overclocked to 5GhZ, and has a E, which must stand for extreme!

OK folks,

I'm probably going to ruffle a few feathers here, but please bear with me:

What I am most curious about is this: What was the per-unit cost of the assembled "Dream Setup"?

I am looking for the main unit (Case, and internal components). After all, the rest is easily changed/swapped, etc.

Preferably without discounts, as it's a base-line reference. A brief relative price for the Intel Test Bench mentioned in the video would also be cool.

I realize it's possible to follow all the links and add everything up, then calculate taxes... Surely someone on that end of things has this info already available and can post the numbers (with an as-of date) so someone like myself can easily know what kind of investment I might be looking at to replicate the system.

 

Thanks in advance!

Great video of the Staff Systems assembly!

Are you guys maybe offering the embroidered version of the chairs through your store? That'd be an interesting item to offer!

Just re-watched the video and saw Linus use 10 10 RTX 2070s as a stepping stone to climb 100k worth of gaming equipment. *pepehands*
