Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
I also believe we should stop increasing storage requirements for consumer PCs, graphics heavy software is not an excuse for not optimizing it storage wise, it makes developers too lazy
I'm gonna give a dislike, she bought them for a reason to "play stardew valley" and had employees choose configs that would suit this light workload and you DIDN'T EVEN TEST IT
I need a usb-c to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter. Anyone know if the Ugreen one is good? They make some bold claims in the amazon ad
Great. Now if only HP could stop directly facilitating an apartheid state that is currently carrying out a genocide against the Palestinians…
I’m a little bit confused, when I turned on resizable bar, it tanked my performance. But Linus said it should be turned on just like xmp?
I know you asked for a gaming PC but the workloads that Shea mentioned to the sales reps makes it reasonable to optimize the system for CPU rather than GPU. Which of course makes a huge difference if you benchmark AAA GPU heavy games on it…
What is the benefit of having xmp and resizable bar off? If it's always better for performance, why isn't it the default or even an option to turn it off?
WAIT this video is HDR?
Looks hella sick on an OLED display! 😀
3 x Ugreen ad in a 25min video is getting redicilous
Idea for the next PC-race. Battle of the viewers – let the viewers compete for the best system within a price range.
Linus..you look like Mr. Monk
Did y'all notice the HDR?
Oh cool hdr
Man just build your own pc instead of this hot garbage
4th S should be "speed"
It's a Dell. What did you expect?
I think level 60 will be released near the end of 2024. They'll have a hat players who hit level 50 by the end of the year get as a reward like the Gyarados hat level 40 players got. I wonder what percentage of players are actually level 50?
Ik why he put a ant
My last 2 main PC's have been upgraded HP Omens. The worst thing about them is usually the cheap motherboard and bloatware. But they are great for building from if you don't feel like doing the whole thing from scratch.
Cyberpower's rgb looks like SHIT!! Why is it at 5 fps??
That "high power 750w 80+ gold", is not an 80+ gold certified psu. Please be more careful with info next time.
Don't buy anything with proprietary connectors, sizes, etc. Not only you will regret it in case of issues or upgrades, but it also means premature e-waste going to landfills probably in some poor country across the ocean.
Plz no more HDR.
It's so clean I almost didn't realize, but these graphs are leagues more readable and understandable than they were just some months ago. Kudos to the new processes and labs team. 🙂
I've never used an MSI product without issues or been adjacent to anyone using an MSI product without issues. Annoying thing is they are usually very competitive but some stupid extra bullshit nobody asked for or a tiny detail like this bios one cause constant issues and make the device almost useless; so they entirely could release ideal products time after time after time but just don't.
Why Linus videos are so dark for me?
Man, the cyberpower pc looks good
😘
is it me or this guy getting booring ?
Why there are never clear links in a description of multipart video to previous parts? NEVER!
Im not surprised, HP / Omen is a bit (well it seems?) a bit of a sleeper in the gaming scene when it comes to providing good price to performance prebuilts. My previous was an OMEN HP with a 1080TI (From when it was relevant) and well I only replaced my system this year and not even for Graphics card reasons so you can see how long that system lasted.
I wont lie I forgot this was still going
the other problem is consistency. Cept for Dell, they're consistently crap.
Could you try Lenovo next year! Bought a great desktop from them a few years ago. The deal was beyond amazing.
starforge fumbled the bag pairing a 6750 12 gb with a weak intel cpu of all things 💀
Would have liked to see some streaming tests . Since it was mentioned when buying the sistems
Its actually super interesting to see the prebuilts shuffle around so much during benchmarking on diff resolutions.
Is there going to be another video with feedback to/from the vendors?
Not coming with a keyboard and mouse is pluspunt in my books. I don't need more (crappy) keyboard or mice and most people I know rather buy their own. Should save on waste not including them
And just in time for the holiday shopping!
… oh wait.
Can you not do the hdr thing next time? On my phone every color outside of the video looks very weird and the video itself is so dark, and when I increase the brightness due to the dark, and the difference between the websites and recorded video become WAYYY to bright making it pretty hard to watch
Why hdr?
Unpopular opinion maybe? But shipping a single stick of RAM sounds better. You can upgrade it later without swapping both sticks.
Can we call out Dell for their actions taken that are against customer's law? These series points out this issue for 3 times now in a row…
Wow, unexpected! HP improved a lot
After watching this video about the MSI board issue I remember something like this but much more weird happened to my friend who built his PC buying parts from a store(they assembled it actually).
The thing is the board will reboot frequently if original windows was installed with a legitimate key but it'll work fine with CRACKED windows, weird 😂. He eventually got the board replaced with a gigabyte one.
Please don't use HDR if it is supported like this. The brightness is flickering on my phone and it's dim af and basically unwatchable.
Where is the electroboom video?
