You guys did a video about the Mi box. I would love to see a video about the Cood-e TV. Or a comparison videos with Mi box, Cood-e tv and apple tv, or something like that.

Would love to see a video about these two items to go along with the videos you guys have on the gaming laptops already. A break down of expected card performance and which laptops to pair them with. Charging via thunderbolt, other eGPU options, etc.

BeQuiet! Shadow Rock 2 heatsink using single or dual Noctua NF-A12x25 fans kind of experiment.

This heatsink ?, paired with this ? in push or push-pull config on the lattest 8/9 gen Intel CPUs.

I wonder how significantly better it would be..

 

But I don't have money to test it myself just to find out if it's worth the fan swap.. ?

Considering that the new OnePlus 6 got LPDDR4X RAM and the new QC 845 with "increased performance", could you Overclock your phone? I mean, is it possible? Maybe add some LTT cooling solution if there's too much heat.

It's pretty unique, but why would anyone want a low profile mechanical keyboard?

No value to LTT reviewing that. I could see if it ended up on their "Why is everyone buying this" series, but I somehow doubt that.

I use both a mechanical keyboard and a chicklet keyboard (in my laptop) and I'm comfortable with both. You'll get used to just about any keyboard you use daily.

I saw these things on eBay, the seller claims its to have faster storage but I don't really know if this would even work due to different protocols or if it would outright kill the m.2 drive. What Im really curios about is if you were take this to a m.2 to PCIe converter to see if you can run a GPU out of the ram slot.

Please, be the first one to explain / find what is different with everyone's favourite gaming Monitor : the Asus PG279Q and the "new" Asus PG279QZ

 

https://www.amazon.com/27-Inch-Screen-LED-lit-Monitor-PG279QZ/dp/B07HZSBW7V/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1544448713&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=pg279qz&dpPl=1&dpID=41wwdyPexEL&ref=plSrch

 

https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/a4o95n/asus_pg279qz_live_on_amazon_for_599/

 

Nobody seems to know what are the differences, and apparently we can get it this week on Amazon.

I'm sure it would interest a lot of people since a lot of people want similar Monitors but we all fear those famous Back Light Bleeding & IPS Glow problems, is it finally a PG279Q version with better QC / Without those problems ??

 

You seem to have things early and fast, would be really cool if you guys could make a video of it.

Samsung Odyssey + and an update view on what Linus thinks about the Windows VR experience with all the latest updates and one of the best screen for VR out there. Of course he would compare it to Oculus, HTC Vive, and what ever else. Maybe he should also try the PS VR headset as well?

The GT 1030 DDR4 and GDDR5 

 

It could be a fun addition to the "low-end sh*t graphics card" series.

 

But seriously, the gddr5 version is 100% better than the gddr4 version and they're selling it at the same price!

I just saw this, I've gotten my 4790K to 4.8GHz with ease on this mobo, with plenty of room to push further.

I doubt you have "Plenty of room to push further" As the clocks go higher the amount of voltage needed and thus heat generated grow exponentially.

Would this be good enough for a video?

The MSI GS73 Stealth-016

I can't seem to find a reliable review source

Also, I don't think it would be worth a single video so maybe a part of a laptop roundup?
