Anyone who uses rgb for more than one colour gets no respect >:(

Can they stop using titles which don't describe anything about what the video is about please.

First it was the Lenovo X1 Carbon review, which the title was initially "Who are you trying to impress" the rest was added later.

Then the video about the Asus PG27UQ, which should have had a title that told you something about the monitor, either its specs, or name.

Then this video "It finally happened", maybe change it to "It finally happened - RGB PSU cables" or something similar.

I know that they are trying to do SEO, and I don't mind, for example when they included "Fortnite" in the aforementioned monitor video, however please don't allow this to make your titles completely unrelated, you can still do SEO while including the topic of the video.

No, you should go back to properly colour matching your components and using regular LED strips, or if you use RGB set it to one colour and not a puke-rainbow of effects.

 

My friend uses RGB to make an aqua-green-blue colour which normally isn't available as a component colour or LED colour, so it needs to be made with a combination of RGB.

This is fine.

 

Doing this is not:

Looks just as bad as this:

Image result for colourful  old computer inside

RGB ^^^ Back when computers had multicolour PCBs.

 

Basically kids just need to grow up and settle on a well-designed colour scheme.

Or just use RGB properly and match it? Just an idea.

So having a rainbow effect of constantly cycling colours??

You think that makes it look any better? lol

No just don't overdo it and have a decent match of colors with maybe a small effect on it. Not just turning on demo mode and calling it quits.

Unfortunately we're kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place on that - we want to include more information in the titles of our videos, but when we do so we significantly limit the performance that we see on each video. Of course it's not all about views/money/whatever, but when you can effectively improve the performance of work you've done by up to 50% with a very small change that ends up being a minor annoyance, it's almost always the right decision to do so.

 

With this title we'll get between 160,000-180,000 views in the first hour. If we were to do as you suggested and include "RGB PSU Cables" after the "It Finally Happened..." we'd probably max out at 100,000-120,000 for that same timeframe.

 

We don't "like" using ambiguous titles, but they work. And as a business, it would be stupid to ignore that fact based on our own personal preferences. A good compromise from our perspective has been adding that addition information a few hours or a day after the video goes up as that helps optimize for search & makes the video more identifiable when looking through the entire catalog.

Yeah, adding it after the initial rush would be better, especially when people want to search for a video in the future. Maybe one day YouTube will fix its algorithm...

So let me get this straight, we're going to RGB the one cable that almost always is tucked behind the motherboard for cable management?

I'd buy one for my P4, because... See post above...

 

It still be nice imo only if you can have a solid colour or the ability to sync it with you other RGB lights. Imagine having a RGB cable pouring in one colour into the motherboard and having another colour pouring out of the other connectors from the board (like SATA) going towards their devices. It would be a nice Red/Blue combo imo.

Can you change your intro video animation to reflect all the RGB opportunities that are available? Thank you.
