Roasting Your Worst Gaming Setups in Person

[mynameGeoff]

Thanks ASUS for sponsoring today's video! Check out their lineup of products at https://lmg.gg/LTTROG2023

At LTX 2023, 500+ gamers brought their setups to game at our Whale LAN party, and they had no idea what was coming. We’ve roasted your gaming setups before, but never have you made it this easy!

There's a lot of stuff there. Is it the Stream Deck XL you were looking at?

[GodAtum]

No the one to his left with all the knobs.

That iMac G4 mod is pretty genius, actually. I like it!

Mac mods will always have a special place in my heart, as someone who ATX modded a PowerMac G5 and has been feeling the itch to do it again but better.

Having ASUS sponsor the video is not it. They've barely started to fix their warranty issues and are frequently posted about in the sponsor complaints thread. It's good that they're at least trying to do something now but they haven't shown nearly enough to justify letting them sponsor a video.

Pointing people towards a company that's actively screwing over their customers right now just isn't okay to do.

Wow Linus looks so much more patient and relaxed in these videos made after the break. 


Any way, these were all such great setups kinda surprising or not surprising that handheld setups would be common.  I mean a gaming laptop with a discrete GPU built in is the optimal mobile gaming setup.  The obvious question to me is when do we see a handheld that docks into some sort of laptop sized carrier for beffier battery, GPU and maybe storage.  With the screen on it acting like a mouse pad.  Someone's going to try that.  

(I know this was filmed before the break.)

This is why ITX builds can be so cool, they're so portable and better than laptops.

BTW that PCI card is a RME card, RME makes high end audio interface.

Old ones like that one are still worth more than you would believe.

For what it is, I really can't hate it. My mods didn't look that good on the inside, but I was(and still am) proud of them.

 

That first mods are crucial to gain the experience to do a better job on your next mods, and I've been wanting to redo my PowerMac G5 mod recently.

Little confused why they accepted ASUS as a sponsor? I thought Linus was just roasting them over an open fire for having warranty issues, customer support problems, BIOS shenanigans, among other things just a few months ago? Seems like the absolute last company LTT would want to have as a sponsor, though perhaps they know something I/we don't.

The absolute last company you would want to have as a sponsor is a company with no money. Asus has lots of money. 

 

I mean, they were the main sponsor for all of LTX.

I guess so, it just seems hypocritical to flame a company for having obviously twisted values, and then go on to accept huge sums of money from them. Like what happened to the sponsor guidelines, did they too disappear? Not trying to call LTT out, I'm just genuinely curious how ASUS passed the checks when there's obvious history literally just a few months ago of them screwing over customers. Is that really what LTT wants to stand for...?
