This is great. Keep doing these videos. I've done second hand scrounging a lot. It's fun to see what you can get. I loved the video. Maybe do giveaways for these systems?

Am I the only one expecting Linus to cheat somehow?

 

And this is awesome.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Linus, are you going to make a review of the Arozzi Torretta gaming chair seen in this episode?

I have been eyeing it for some time, but I was unable to find any video reviews of it or reviews in general.

Cool Series!

But I think the rigs will be bottlenecked by the cpu. But hey, if you have no time and money, you've to take, what you get.

Pretty cool thing you are doing. An idea for if you repeat this sort of thing is get someone else to come up with the benchmark. But not to announce the benchmark until the end of the build or during the tweaking phase.

If you guys will allow it I have some constructive criticism for this series.

 

First, please tell us when the next one is coming out in the video. Tell us it is a weekly series.. I did not see that anywhere in the video.

Second, stop making parts based solely on the chronological order of things.

 

Think about the many parts of the iMac review, each had a theme, a purpose.

This series should have followed the same idea.

 

Part 1: SCAVENGING! - Everything covered in todays video and everything up to the point where all the parts are in your hands 

Part 2: BUILDING! - Putting everything together, realizing it doesn't work and overclocking it

Part 3: CHALLENGING! - All the fighting and benchmarking and wrap up

 

Rather than the current format which appears to be

Part 1: DAY ONE

Part 2: DAY TWO

Part 3: ALL THE EXCITING STUFF THAT WE ACTUALLY WANTED TO SEE.

 

Anyone else agree with me?
