Roasting my staff’s PC setups!

Thanks to ORIGIN PC for sponsoring this video! Check out their new EVO 15-S system at: https://bit.ly/LTT_EVO15S

 

The team at LMG are a diverse bunch with a wide-ranging skillset - and they often use those skills to cast a critical eye on the choices Linus makes with his setups. Today though, we play the uno reverse card: it’s time for Linus and Luke to judge the choices their own staff make, and publicly roast their setups!

I love that the time was spent to include so so many of the staff  and not just a handful, it really made it more enjoyable!

 

My only complaint was this felt a bit too much time guessing then roasting (and properly seeing all the pics), but I get it was probably harder to strike a perfect balance with this many PCs.  Will take the more PCs every time (especially with the double PC lol).

 

Love to see more like this!

If you're looking for smaller speakers the Kanto YU2 are pretty well regarded as well, and I loved the Mackie CR3s. Currently have the CR5s (but they're big).

That cat's not fat, it's just a large fluffy breed and perhaps getting it's winter coat?  Perhaps a Norwegian forest cat or similar?  Beautiful either way.

After so many of these setup roasts, I think it's clear Alex's next project should be a pc case that can act as a tissue and lotion dispenser

I feel offended that Linus complains about the A1243 keyboard. 
 

It simply is the one of the best keyboards ever made. 
 

Linus knows nothing about usable keyboards.

Maine Coon mix maybe?

A mousepad oriented vertically gives you a place to rest your wrist that isn't the tabletop.

Looks like he's a Doll Face Persian, but I'd call him a big floof.

Yeah but you're also a trackball mouse person so can we take you seriously? 😉 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

I have a tiny mousepad, too; I just have the sensitivity cranked up so I don't have to make large movements. It's also vertical, but that's mostly because I have my mousepad sitting on a Windows XP for Dummies book to give it just a little bit more height so it's more comfortable. But god my keyboard is gross. I really need to take these pads off.
