I'm surprised that LTT didn't post reviews of new the AMD hardware... hopefully for the best

I'm surprised that LTT didn't post the Radeon 7800 XT (and 7700 XT) at embargo lift like the other outlets (which you guys all know what outlets I'm talking about).

 

Hopefully, it really means a well thought out video and that the delay is caused by errors they found along the way and decided to postpone for the sake of the video and review quality.

 

I really hope it's what's going on. I really want LTT to follow through because I'm still on the "Press X to doubt" bandwagon. I've had a more attentive eye and hear since they started to slowly release videos again.

Anyway, I'd also love LTT to get peer reviews on their future reviews (PERSONAL OPINION) but seeing how the relationship between other outlets seems to be going... I wouldn't bet too much about that. Unfortunately.

 

I'm just putting my thoughts out there. Feel free to comment, or not.

Probably because they know full well that if they mess up again, then it’s game over for LTT Labs & LTT’s remaining credibility as a review outlet.

Agreed. That's why I said I'm surprised they didn't go with the rest. They really have their goal to heart and that they were never lying about it.

I think they're just going to take their time with videos, and it doesn't really have anything to do with finding errors. LTT wasn't really a channel that people went to for the most in depth reviews, so them not releasing the video at launch won't really affect their viewership that much.

Haha, no. Maybe for some, sure, but in the bigger picture? But a slight hitch in their company as a whole. The only way it'd gravely affect them is if they let that thought guide their decisions.

Probably they are testing if posting late really affects the performance of the video. Also the community said no rush so they aren't rushing

Maybe not to that extreme, but if their first post-reflection review is full of glaring technical errors, it's going to whack the hornet's nest and the Internet dogpile will come back again.

In all honesty this is for the best IMHO.

 

I'd rather see a video that is a day, or two late but accurate...then one that is released on time with errors. To be fair that doesn't mean every major product launch will be this way. I'm sure once they get their processes sorted out and can verify that they are working as intended, we will see them being released on time like everyone else. Until then, it's better they take their time rather than rush it through.

They can still pump out videos at a fast pace on channels like the super fun. Technical reviews of a product should definitely take longer

The video's here now and it's a great step ahead from past reviews. It shows.

They're the only one of the few that will do productivity benchmarks so I'll be waiting on that.

Well, they did release a video. There were a lot of great improvements specially on the graphs presented. Just a really minor nitpick: I think its better to present graphs of these cards using their brand's coloring, specially if its just two cards being presented.

Overall, they did a great job!

Ironically, I'm pretty sure the reason why CSF basically ground to a halt is because many of the videos they used to put up there took a lot of time and staff to make.
