how did you find linus and his channel/forum?

[P e r s e p h o n e]

I wanted to build a M-ITX build a few years ago; I found Linus after searching Youtube for some ITX build ideas.

I was looking for motherboard unboxings like 3 years ago. Watched every video since then and liked on every one since those like for charity times

Love your videos

[Rising]

I feel so new compared to everyone else, I started watching several months ago when I was first becoming interested in computer building. My brother recommended linus to me !

[aka848]

I was searching for build guides, and linus's were the best. He kept talking about how great Noctua's fans were, so I clicked through the channel to look for a review that just had to exist, ironically it did not but what I found instead was a great channel with lots of high quality content and an amazing community around it. All of this was a few months ago.

I first discovered linus when I was searching for an unboxing of a motherboard although I'm not sure of the specific video I vaguely remember that it was an asus z77

[yesman]

I was looking what a gtx 690 seeing what it was because iv didn't even know what a graphics card what so I watch it like the video and he got me in to gaming pc

[orangecat]

I found Linus years ago when i was looking for some tech videos (this was way back when he started off at NCIX).

[miss34star]

Found out about him through ncix.

[DigiKing]

I watched a laptop unboxing of his several years ago. I became a fan and was one of the first people on the forum.

[Sharif]

it was because of my eldest brother and he watched one of your video's which then i watched and then this happened

Oh, but there are!

I was looking at buying a new case and found a video of him unboxing a case. I endured his voice sooner rather than later I became pretty fond of him, so I subbed.

I randomly search youtube, from anything. Happened to stumble in some of Linus' videos. Initial impression was,this guy talks funny, but boy that was the catch. Although, funny at first you could really tell how serious he is about his videos and the content. I rarely subscribe to other channels, but Linus way of talking and content made me subscribe.

[Infernofight]

Was watching unboxing videos three years ago and saw a related video of a computer case unboxing of an interesting case. Outside. On a bench. So I was pretty tempted to watch.

[TyagoDani]

Completely randomly going around YouTube when I first was learning about tech at all... I think it was November 2009... So yeah... Long time subscriber...

[Jonaz24]

I saw Total Biscuit link the wan-show ep. where he appeared as a guest and i subscribed pretty much right after the show. I'd love to see Linus or Luke or why not both of them on TB's podcast someday. That would rock.

Watched the amd vs Nvidia fps video on ncix when he had blonde hair still lolz. What a dude. Been a linus fan for years

[almokinsgov]

It was a while ago when linus was still at NCIX and the russian was there. He was showing the start-up comparison between SSD and a HDD. My favorite was the ASUS Rampage III

[deilwynna]

I found LinusTechTips' youtube through youtubes suggested videos while watching OC3D/TTL's videos a few years ago now

[jlongs]

Same with many here, researching for PC parts for my first build, back in 2011. NCIX videos kept popping up on searches so naturally I started looking to them for info. It helps that they opened a store right across from my place, so now everything PC that I buy comes from them (price match + in store pick up ftw!). Then LTT started and I've been on the ride since. It's awesome.

[chedderbob1985]

been watching his youtube channel for a very long time

[killers993]

A long time ago when I was looking for reviews of the antec lanboy air. 

[toms94z71]

I was researching computer parts and came across his very informative videos, which turned out to be helpful, then I saw the forum talked about on the WAN show and decided to join it.

[Hasufein]

watching cpu cool reviews on TTL's channel a few years ago (before linus started live streaming in the kitchen of his old house) then i saw a recommended link to another video by some guy named 'Linus' (who does this guy think he is?) who was unboxing/reviewing the same cooler, figured i'd check it out given Linus' video wasn't 2 hours long.

[tiagojcp]

Cooler Master HAF X.

Watched it dozens of times, and ended up buying an Atcs 840.

I loved all the outdoor unboxings.
