LMG Crew Ideal Tech

[avzanzag]

I would love a video cataloguing what tech (PC, laptop, phone, audio, etc) Linus, and the rest of the LMG crew, would outfit themselves with, money no object.

@LinusTech

[AskTJ]

I would also like to see this.

Linus' would be a mile-long chain of Thunderbolt docks attached to a Rezar Blade Stealth

Make sure to tag jake so he notices. Sometimes he doesn't get the notification, so you need to tag him a few times.

The forum is bugged especially for Jake. Sometimes you need to send him a pm. If he doesn't reply it probably hasn't gone through, you need to keep sending them.

It would be nice to have a video with everybody in it. But, how do you do it in a way that isn’t everybody just listing off components, which would be boring? Building them would be cool, but not practical. A contest with available parts maybe?

They did a livestream (I think the subs don’t matter one) where they showed off like 90% of staff where only a few were not in the office so they didn’t appear.

Is that the excuse he gave you? Lol

I think this is more interesting if done with money as an object.  Like I'd love to have a custom watercooled system in the Singularity Spectre case with an i9-7980XE and a Quadro V100 but irl I'd never get that.  We're currently working on videos about team members personal rigs which I think is more interesting.

Yes I had to send him 23 messages before he replied.

(You're probably joking, but) please do not do this. Sending multiple PMs, or tagging multiple times, is just going to annoy the recipient. People don't check their PMs 24/7, especially when they get as many messages as the LMG staff do, and going through them can take a while.

[Fullmental]

Just throwing in my support for this as well.

He HAS them at work...

 

Edit: er, at least he did until Jake build the 1000D prototype system...

Writing (the word processing element of it) is more intensive on the processor than the GPU. You would not need a supercomputer with something like 48 Nvidia Tesla GPUs for writing scripts.  Even a machine with 12 of the cards would cost around 80000 USD which is definitely way out of the consumer and gaming market and more aimed at server and data center users who have a workflow that can utilize that grade of hardware.

Wow, this would be a really high-end configuration that I agree would be cool to have although impractical for most users it would cost thousands to make (depending on other parts of your system). I would like to see the whole LMG team try to build a computer with hardware of their choosing on a budget and then be judged on their system similar to scrapyard wars or theme based build challenges, maybe a speed race to see who can build a system the quickest.

I've had the P4000 in my system since the SW video lol

Jake needs a bit of help I feel for his Overwatch. At least his system can be improving.
