Posted February 22, 2015 Utter rubbish You can easily wait until you have edited all the parts before starting the release. Then release them daily or weekly in a timely fashion. What you're doing now is pushing out whatever is completed and totally disjointing the series. I can't even remember the detail from the first part but I remember liking it and wanting to see the next one. Multipart is fine but is has to be professional and come out together on a set schedule so people can really enjoy them. Have you never watched a TV series before? Weekly sporting events? I'd agree with a large portion of this comment if it was in reference to the whole room watercooling videos. Despite being some of the best content on the channel, the sporadic releases resulted in me basically rewatching portions of the previous videos for stuff to make sense. But in the first scrapyard wars video, they announced that parts 2 and 3 would be coming on Saturdays, and that the videos are already done. Though, I guess you probably forgot that detail.

The videos aren't "done" as in edited but they have been shot. So for part 3 I have to figure out the layout, watch through the footage (there's about 40 minutes for each side of just build and then there's all the benchmarking footage). I don't have anyone to log my footage as it comes in like a larger production would, I don't have a writer or producer to steer things in a semi-planned manner, besides there being a goal, the footage is pretty much random.

Posted February 22, 2015 If Linus is able to overclock the CPU to 3.6 GHz and overclock the HD 7950 balls to the wall he may have an advantage. An HD 7950 once overclocked can reach 70% of the performance of the r9 290 which in turn is going to be bottlenecked bad. But the games which are gonna be benchmarked are GPU dependent .-. Its so close haha. Anyone know when the next episode is gonna come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted February 22, 2015 I'm not saying that it's stupidly slow though. What I mean is that it can handle a lot of games at a playable frame rate, but as soon as that PCIE bandwith gets completely stuffed, you're not going to get the performance you really should. Typically, especially with new hardware and new processors, bottlenecking should hardly exist. But in this scenario, he's using a ~10 year old CPU (that still hauls some ass) with a video adapter card that pushes HUNDREDS of gigabytes per second of bandwidth through that old PCI Express 2.0 port. pcie isnt a limit, even today, its been tested (by linus among others) pcie 2.0 8x has within margin of error performance hit (well within 5%) so pcie 1.0 16x will still be fine with an r9-290. that e8400 overclocked to 4ghz (luke, we have faith...) will reach 75%ish the performance of the q6600 assuming its around@3ghz that said that board is baller (googled it) so linus isnt likely to throttle and will get most out of that q6600 which is going to be great for all the tests except maybe dirt3 which can run on a toaster. mantle would help out allot here but they're going to be measuring fps with fraps i bet and im unsure if firestrike can use it. changed around to q6600+r9-290 and e8400+7950 both systems would be great and proof that your money should always go towards a better gpu even if it'll bottleneck a little and you'll still get more performance especially if willing to overclock.

But games that use single/dual cores will put up one hell of a fight given the E8400's advantage in single core performance. This looks like it's gonna be a photo finish, guys!

Posted February 22, 2015 I'm loving this series, i wish we will see another scrapyard war in the future. My take on the winner is that Linus is gonna win this one, he has made the right decision/was lucky to pick a Q6600 and still finding an high end video card to add. Luke found a r9 290 which is a beast and surely has the edge over Linus' 7950 but the E8400 (which is my main CPU for gaming believe it or not... being poor sucks) will be an huuuuuuge bottleneck, the only way i can see Luke winning is that he has managed to catch a nice cooler for its CPU off camera so that he can overclock like hell. Just a curiosity, when this "contest" has took place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted February 22, 2015 core 2 duo , oh dear. Thats huge bottleneck. Yeah :// core 2 duos are known to bottleneck HD 7770s in modern games haha, let alone an r9 290. The games tested however are very GPU dependent so maybe slick's added GPU horsepower will prevail or maybe not. Its pretty close haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 22, 2015 The videos aren't "done" as in edited but they have been shot. So for part 3 I have to figure out the layout, watch through the footage (there's about 40 minutes for each side of just build and then there's all the benchmarking footage). I don't have anyone to log my footage as it comes in like a larger production would, I don't have a writer or producer to steer things in a semi-planned manner, besides there being a goal, the footage is pretty much random.
