Thanks for watching as always you guys! 🙏 I managed to not horribly mispronounce anything this week. 😅 A note on my Intel 7nm digs -- as quite a few have pointed out, manufacturing process nodes are not as directly comparable as they used to be, and both Intel 10nm and 7nm have some interesting and potentially exciting technology going on under the hood. Transistor density is another factor, so while it does make for good joke-fodder, please keep in mind that Intel 7nm ≠ AMD 7nm.
Hey, MSFT didn't destroy Github. Maybe there is hope for Discord.
buy Nvidia
can i please buy a gpu off you this is annoying lol
DESTROY BITCOIN ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
They should make a website to some company which takes all older GPU's and CPU's with free shipping worldwide to disassemble all blown and older models to recycle those components to make new components as those materials doesn't grow on trees 😀 and thousands of computer builders has that old hardware just boxed away into storage etc.
9:12 "ASUS, MSI to increase their GPU prices". This. Just this.
Shouldn't even be looking at buying right now, period. Be happy with what you got, or else you're spending upwards of three to four times the normal value at this point. Absolute Insanity. Losing my respect for the PC genre.
AMD sent all of their 413 employees to dislike your video 😜! Pc building is officially dead IMO! You have to be a special kind of stupid to spend 2x msrp! My gpu took a🚽💩 on me! I need a gpu but I will never pay these prices and I will not buy an inferior gpu than the one I have 🤦🏿♂️! I’m just going to buy a Mac mini! I don’t need it for gaming I need it for 4K video editing!
If we start using Discord for school ima be upset
The intro 😂
*Staring at my Radeon R7 260X* Looks like im still going to game in 2012 i suppose
Rocket lake, I bet you thought that sounded like rocket league._.
Hi, considering the market prices right now, is 350 euros too much for a 1070ti?
Taiwan for the first time is asking desperate for a typhoon to come bring rain, the first time had zero typhoon in 2020.
What camera are you using to record yourself with?
Dude I can not deal with the youtube shit anymore WHY THEY KEEP HIDING UR VIDEOS on my FVCKING FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED OMG peqwrufPWDFPIWETLNSDGOHQ
The Putin!!!
412 people don't appreciate a good sense of humor.
Everyone complaining about 1050tis My 750ti: hehehe
Luckily I upgraded to a gtx 1070 on my new PC build before this whole rise in gpu prices
looks like my 1060 is going to stick with me for a while
sum bullsh*t
Can someone just find these bitcoin miners, scalpers, and resellers and just order hitmen to take them out? Because i am tired of all the good tech being unobtainable
i never feel bad about not getting rich on stocks or anything because the money i spent buying my gtx 970 years ago is still paying its self back right now
- pats 1660 super- 😊 good boy.....

5 year old GTX 1060: laughs in seemingly unending lifespan.
Shopping for sunglasses.... this outside you speak of is bright..... rock on.
RIP Discord :(
But how are they going to stop the f****** bots???
Thank god I managed to snatch a 5900X in time.
How can Intel go into this unsuccefull CPU version changes? 14nm tech while AMD is at 7nm ???? what a deception how slow they are to rise their standards ?
What year is this? And here I thought my 8th gen i5 is like brand new 🤣🥲 still going strong tho
I don't understand how is there so many types of new GPUs but I can't get my hands on one single one
That’s a lot of head 🍺
*cries in 2070 super*
Old Rasputin is the best
PC gaming rip. Beer4life
Just snagged a 6700XT for a stupidly expensive price from Overclockers UK, however, I have an RX5700 (flashed to XT Bios) to sell for an equally stupid price. The upgrade could cost me less than £100 - not really worth more than that to be honest. I was hoping to get a 3070 or 6800, but so hard to find. Now I've just got to sell my R9 290X and GTX 1070 to "swap" for a 3060 (if I can get hold of one of those).
I'm more concerned with how many takes it took to get that thumbnail pose just right in order to look as ridiculous as possible on purpose
the sadness
Soilder on my little GTX 1050, soilder on.
I'm glad I bought a 2070 last January its treating me well
I can't believe i threw out my old 1060 years ago, now it's value is basically triple what it was in 2019
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. (Psalms 51:1-4 [KJV]) +++ And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30 [KJV])
Any help would be good. Im building a computer (yes during the pandemic) but I can't a gpu. Are there any CPU that has a pretty good integrated graphics?
I got tired of all the games, i held out since dec. But im tired bro........bought a evg 3080 ultra for 2k. Sucks i know, but im liberated, feels nice to free myself from this madness. I will always make/get money again. The time and energy trying to finagle a card for msrp, i cant get back
My humble opinion regarding the ps4 fiasco is that, given enough time, hackers will find a way to make it work, as it has happened many times in the past in similar situations.
Offtopic: Why does this feel like way more than 60hz?
looks like ill be going back to TeamSpeak then.... Im sorry Microsoft, you do a lot of great things, but communication and related topics ain't one.
Dude what camera + lens are you using? This is the most crisp video I have ever seen on youtube. Maybe it's the encoding profile. I'd also love to know which one you're using.
Came for gpu talk but instead got ass blasted with cpu news i dont care about. Well done.
All these are excuses to raise prices. This is why you cant rely on China for all of our products. When are we Americans and Europeans goingvto figure this out? Relying on communism to support capitalism is a terrible idea.
Me sitting here with my 770: 👁👄👁
It took 2 months but I got my RTX3080 last week
I was sad hearing that new Intel CPUs on 7nm were so far into the future because I'm at the brink of upgrading my rig, but then I remembered that GPUs probably wont be in stock for another 2 years either so I'd be stuck either way. Ehh, my 980 gets to live for a little longer
Don't fail me now, GTX 970. I know you are tired.
So this was about the fifteenth step in my current rabbit hole where I try to figure out how to build my first PC without meeting some dude in a parking garage for a GPU deal only to end up in a bathtub full of ice and a note that says "thanks for the kidneys, call 911" and everything you said made me even sadder, so uh thanks for that I guess
It bothers me that you don't have a southern accent >:( (jk luv you
Damn. That was a dark episode lol
Idk i think i was lucky i managed to buy a new rtx 2060 for 400$ yesterday
Looks like i'm not building my new PC with a recent card anytime soon :-/
Cant even get GPUs now, but we get rumors of 3000 series TI cards.....Come on Invidia, we need product, not rumors of product that we still wont be able to get.....GIANT FACE PALM!!!!
I'm hearing there are no supply problems, we are just buying shit loads of graphics cards because Covid. I upgraded for first time in years last year and I wanna do same now
This new format is hella lit.
Was planning on building a PC with my stimulus check + tax return to game with my friends for the first time in nearly a year but it looks like that's not happening now :(
I wasn't aware of the GPU crisis and I went ahead and built a PC to upgrade from my 7year old laptop. I cry in Intel UHD
I actually searched one day on the internet and found a 3060 ti founders edition for €970.- only 3 months old (+receipt). It was a student looking to downgrade to something else. Only now after seeing a bunch of youtubers talk on this subject I realize that I basically won the lottery.
I need a new one my 1650 ain’t holding up for much longer pain 😭
Feel bad for me, I'm still on my Ryzen 5 Vega 11. Everything is out of stock.
Hey, I like head about as much as any other guy. Other than that, a better pore might help with that beer. 😊
Good god. That like button sound at the end was ear shattering.
If Taiwan is the one who needs a rainy season, why should anyone pray for rain in the Republic of China? Taiwan is a separate country.
guess I'm keeping my rx580
I got beyond lucky. built my first PC earlier this fall and got myself a lot of top tier components that are sold out now, even managed to snag myself a 3080 :)
Ha, he poured that beer wrong.
There is bad thing the worst these graphic card are skyrocking
My 1070 ftw2 is pretty much pure gold lol
you do good news:) I shall sub
ive been trying to build a pc because i only got a laptop and ive literally have not found any gpu thats under $600 lmao
rx 480 is sold for a low low price of 470 us buckaroos where I live
Damn I was thinking of getting a pc now but do I need a gpu? Or is there something worth my money right now?
i'm noticing a pattern of "nvidia does something that could be very cool, and AMD eventually copies it"
cries in 980ti still
my 1650 is glued to my pc now ig
So weird to see this happen. I’ve had a RX 580 just sitting in my room unused for like a year.
12GB for the 3080ti, but 16GB for the 3070ti.......................
Ps4 bricking has me raging.... my original Nintendo still plays games... sometimes tech sucks
Now is the time to invest in the production companies lol
happy evga 1070gtx owner here :D
I love watching these videos and act like I know what he's talking about :)
Productivity will drop .. g8
subbed for the Rasputin; that's the stout that broke my stout cherry when I was 23
BRO COME ONN PLEASE I HAVE A 960!!!
I literally just got in my ASUS GTX 1650 (that wasn’t gouged) and am relieved and happy to have that. Been a whole let down since November having built my first machine. Excited to enjoy what I have.
god good thing i got my rx580 before the price rocketed
Me with a gtx 1050 looks like I'm stuck with you.
ive built my first pc but trying to find my gpu and its getting really annoying
Maybe Intel will buy the same glue than AMD? 🤔
So... like how many think they are only building here in the US, so that when war breaks out overseas and those plants get destroyed they still make chips and charge lots of $$ .
I’ve been enjoying my 5700xt and 3600 i paid 500$ for over a year now. I’m going to sell it and buy a house :-)
i really like the t-shirt Paul, it hits home a little bit.. did some time back in my 20's, so like... i get it.
JESUS CHRIST THAT WAS AWFUL Take my like lol
I JUST NEED A GPU I HAVE EVERYTHING ELSE
