Really disappointed you guys made such a short video. I mean I know that it's a pretty meh improvement but comon. You guys already massively missed the early release cycle for reviews, why not go balls deep in yours?

Is it just me or do the boxes remind you of tie-dye 2001 shirts everyone used to wear? :lol:

Where's the video review? And if it's on Vessel, didn't you guys say that major releases wouldn't be Vessel-exclusive?..

And since when did they start doing the exclusivity thing for major product releases?... Didn't Linus say during one of the WAN shows that they weren't going to do that?..

I'm not sure about that. I actually thought they were putting everything on vessel before youtube, but I don't always pay attention, soooo. Sorry.

I like the boxes

17/10.

25$ more than the 4690K and no cooler?

I guess they invested that into the boxes!

(Or they just want more profit)

Any PSU is modular if you try hard enough....

My new PC is rocking an i7-6700K B|

Totally don't mind that there isn't a cooler. Aftermarket coolers provide inexpensive, coolness B|. Pun intended.
