So I enjoy watching him review bad products like the streets by 50 and R7 240. But it'll take ages to go through all the videos so I need your help to find them

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

I really love watching reviews for terrible products as well. Same thing can be said about reviews. A bad review is waaaay more fun to watch than, "This is good. You should get this if you want to get this."

Well he reviewed a case that he later made fun of because of the hot swap bay.

I personally hated his R7 240 video. It kinda missed the point of the video (some people play games like LOL on a 720p monitor and it would be great for those people) and felt like a general rant.

As somebody who got out of VGA by spending 40 bucks on a GT610, I can tell you that a cheap GPU is absolutely worth it.

 

I just feel like his negative videos are too ranty or too... what's the word... he exaggerates some of the negatives in products sometimes. His reviews of Corsair products are like this "yada yada yada, cable management, sleek design, THE TOP IO MAKES ME HATE CATS!" and it bugs me sometimes. It makes the product appear worse than it really is sometimes.

 

So I suppose that I don't want a polar-opposite of the STDs, the Stuff the Sucks section. It would just, well, suck.

I want this...  more "Hey don't buy this" reviews.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

You missed the point of that video. The R7 240 (at the time anyway) was not a $40 GPU. It was a $80 GPU that performed only marginally better than a $40 GPU and MUCH worse than a $100 GPU.

Its funny whenever I see a video titled "Top 10 Worst xxxx" and have about 1/3 more views than its "Top 10 Best xxxx" sister video. People love to hop on the bandwagon about something they dislike or hate. Myself included.

But if Mr Linus does decide to do more "Things I hate" videos, it should be done sparingly as it would detract from his normal video style of positive reviews.

Then again, it would be funny to see him go full rage mode.

Or a series that's on the flip side of STDS; Stuff That SUUUUUUCKS!

Maybe Linus can refine that a bit.

@LinusTech could do video about this. Something opposite to handy tech under $100.
