His newest video

The BEST & FASTEST Gaming Monitor. Period.

With the odd looking eyes is very disturbing. I can't believe they are photoshopping the title picture.

With the odd looking eyes is very disturbing. I can't believe they are photoshopping the title picture.

The thumbnail on that, while a bit cringe, is far from the worst offender. The TITLE, on the other hand, is fucking stupid.

 

You review a product, but don't say what product you're reviewing in the title? That's bullshit, in my opinion. Put the product Make and Model in the title, along with the word "review".

 

Also "best" is a stretch. Best if you want the fastest, sure. But otherwise, hell no. There are numerous monitors I'd take over this one for gaming. Especially since we can finally get pretty fast (as in, higher than 60Hz) IPS monitors now. I'd also choose FreeSync/Adaptive-Sync over G-Sync, because I have an AMD GPU, and because I prefer an open standard that NVIDIA is able to adopt any time they want (but choose not to).

I think he wants Linus to use his ass as click bait.

Pro tip @HellsAnglesComputerNerd; Linus is Canadian, so if you say "Click bait my ass please",then you have a significantly better chance of getting accepted!

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

Only yours, you don't shitpost on the same level that we can, mainly because this thread is finally dead and should be locked.

I wasn't wrong. It's extremely rare that I am. I provided sources as well. Different devs can disagree. Further, we now have confirmed discrepancy from Twitter about he use of the pre-release 1080 driver in AMD's demo despite the release 1080 driver having been out a week prior.

You apparently haven't seen his responses to questions on YouTube. He is very condescending and aggressive in his comments with which there is little justification. He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

I've stopped watching LMG videos, they just don't put the same time/detail/depth into their content it feels to me. I've been watching some of Pauls Hardware and Jayz and they've done more detailed videos regarding water cooling, and benchmarking with humour, then LMG has done in a very long while.
