PC Giveaway

Hi !

I wanted to ask that does Linus giveaway his PCs?

Since he makes like 3-4 builds per month, so probably there will be lots of spare rigs available...Isn't it?

If he doesn't giveaway his PCs, then he should...

Because that's what a good youtuber does....

Linus does present ROG Rig Reboot, though there is a question mark on whether it will actually go ahead this year. Ideally you should save up to build a PC anyway instead of relying on giveaways.

No, because they often use the same parts over and over again.

Give it 5 minutes before thread is locked?

Any system they build that they don't intend on using is dismantled and the parts are kept in their warehouse and re-used in other PC build videos or are kept on hand so they have access to older hardware if they ever need to test it (for example comparing last generation of CPUs to the newer generation). Some hardware are just review samples which they may be required to return to the manufacturer after they are finished with it.
