I'll take the Duke
Tape would have been better for the mousepad
Moral of the story: the 3080 isn't worth it 💀💀💀💀
luke and elijah are the winners in my eyes idc what the judges fucking decided
Are you sure both teams had the exact same settings during the live benchmarks?

linuses team sucked ass lol luke , sorry duke and young mike were so entertaining
That 3080 basically lost it for Luke. Broken FAN + bad airflow case put it basically on par with the 3070. Also can't believe they were unable to find a better cheap AM4 CPU to swap into that mobo. Another BIG mistake was not taking some FANs out the junk systems for free out of that container. I would probably prefer if both teams had a day or two more time.
f1 23 LOW wth my gtx 980 ti runs that game ad med settings with 78 fps why did they choose low!??!?!
lmao luke system was gpu overclocked so hard it prob thermal throttled in sottr with rtx on ultra stuff so hard that it barely rendered 46 frames while the cpu was pushing almost 77

if it wasnt for that crusty ass keyboard i would take lukes setup
Team balanced pose is iconic 🕺🏻
Real life hack that I learned last year… buy a cheap chair that gets what you need, and spend a few bucks on a replacement set of wheels… seriously good wheels make a chair so much better. The most expensive wheels I have are literally wheels from in-line skates, and the 5-wheel set for my chair was $15. This chair glides across hard floor and carpet alike.
All of those games are highly recommended!
I wanted Luke to win
codenames is not a 2 player game lol
solllllved
in my heart lukes team is the winner — its significantly more closer to the experience a budget hunting gamer would have
29:27 Plus points for an amp? That cheap amp that basically just was a solution to a problem? When he still thought it's a DAC, he also was about to give plus points for that.
I don't want to specifically blame Nicholas for this. At this point, he just represents a lot of other people. And those people really need to understand what those things are.
There ALWAYS is an amp at some point in the signal chain to drive a speaker. That amp might be part of the speaker but there always is an amp. And external amp does not automatically equal good amp. The amps in my active KRK studio speakers are certainly a lot better than that amp bolted to the table.
And there ALWAYS is a DAC. DAC means nothing more than Digital Analog Coverter. Since our brains can't comprehend digital audio signals, there always needs to be a DAC to covert the digital signal to an analog one. Even the audio out of your motherboard has at least two DACs. One for the right and one for the left channel. Those things people are referring to as DACs are just external DACs. So could we please all shift to saying something like EDAC? Because saying "I don't use the audio out of my motherboard, I use a DAC instead" is basically like saying "I don't game on a graphics card, I game on a GPU instead.". Wouldn't it drive you mad if it would be normal to say something like that?
sammy is so cuteeeee
I like Luke's system better.
Can not believe I just heard Linus say “goon cave” 😭😭😭 lmao
i'm not a fan of linus team partner i just hate her, she is very annoying
FUUUUUUUUDGE. I WAS TEAK DUKE
Sammi ftw
Imagine having Linus just show up, take your old mic, and casually walk away
was that a logitech g11/g15 gaming keyboard ?
Has Luke ever won a year?
Can't say i'm surprised about who won, but still it was an entertaining watch. And sammi was great!
I only realy watch your wan shows these days & scrap yards.
It always amazed me the diffrences vs us EU peeps. Esp as a swede we do take recycling seriously here, almost to much. I used to work at a drop off for electronic "waste" and saw so many perfectly good systems i just wanted to take home. But it would count as stealing property despite the fact that ppl just goes there to dump their stuff to get recycled.
They don't do free giveaways either, it's all going to the recycling plant.
I guess the only relatable thing would be that you can get free furniture. Usualy old ikea stuff since it's what basically everyone starts with when they move to their first appartment/home.
So people often gives it away once they move for the 2nd time.
Luke’s energy was great
The roasttttttt!!! Love it sammy 🎉
I was rooting for the old man system right up until Luke scored the insane free audio setup – so many fantastic moments in this series
That was a pretty unfair competition: Linus + Sammi + Elijah vs Luke , so 3 people vs 1.
Personally, I'd take Luke's system if just to get that 3080 to upgrade my current computer. Linus did have the overall best system though.
day 6 of complaining for bearded non-blond Linus back.
Unpopular opinion: Jawa sellers are overpricing their components due to Linus's promotion.
Threw in some electoral votes here
The problem with Linus's team's screen was that DisplayPort only does DVI-I. You need an active converter that's around $30 to do DVI-D over DisplayPort. I believe dvi-i caps out at 2k60 HZ
Should include gas in the budget next time
i would take the 3080 and found some free fans
