Why would you say that? You know how many people are going to do this that we're previously too dumb to think to do it? I garentee you made things so much worst by typing this.
Everytime I watch Intel Tech Upgrade it reminds me of that program in the 90s where lucky kids would get like 1 min to fill their cart in a toy store and could keep it all if they made it back on time. This feels almost the same, only for slightly more adult stuff.
I love Intel Extreme Tech Upgrade videos. we get to see LTT employees that are never on screen and learn a small bit about their lives. seeing how you have 80 employees. I can't wait to meet them all.
I really don't understand this. They're just people, and most of them don't want you to learn about their lives. I'm with Taran on this one, privacy is important.
You're telling me Nolan managed to get a job at LMG, won stuff at a Christmas party, and got drawn for Intel Extreme Tech Upgrade, all while his gaming rig was already decent? How lucky is this guy? He should buy a multi million dollar lottery ticket next.
At that point, just take the legs off the couch and set it on the floor. When that leg finally goes, it's going to put a massive gouge in that hardwood floor. Also, I have that same Fractal case and my 3090 wouldn't fit until I replaced the center AIO fan with a 120mm slim fan. Works like a charm.
I think most people still underestimate how effective modern packaging is. As long as the retail box is unopened, you can throw most products off your roof and have them fall two stories down into hard concrete with zero damage done to the products. This is even more true for lightweight things like those m.2 drives, you could fastball pitch that box into a brick wall and nothing will happen to the drive inside.
@@trapical As a former truck dock worker and Lowes employee. Nahh, that shit gets destroyed. The amount of shrink ive seen from just crushed boxes and broke product from poorly packed loads in staggering. Maybe certain stuff is bulletproof but most retail packaging is designed to a price point as low as humanly possible.
I have a new 2nd place contender for favorite member of LTT sorry Nolan it would be a monumental task to displace Anthony for the 1st place slot. Sorry not sorry Linus you are not in the top 3. Jake= #3
Nolan was the CSR that assisted me recently when I had a problem with my order (courier messup) and he was super friendly and prompt throughout - glad to see that he's such a friendly guy in person too!

LMG must pay well. Every time they do one of these the person has a nice apartment or is a homeowner it seems like. And the office is in Vancouver area so real estate is probably super expensive.
Intel: We want to do an extended sponsor series where we give all your employees a 5000$ upgrade Linus: ALL my employees? Intel: Ye... (just a youtuber right?.. ok) Yes.
@@elevul I think Linus recently said there are about 80 employees. (On the Amazon is running out of people to hire clip). They will be growing with the new labs project but they probably don't get anything
Why is this series (Extreme Tech Upgrade) so fun to watch? On the surface it sounds like the worst marketing idea ever: "Hey, lets give some media outlet lots of money they can do whatever they want with as long as they at least buy an Intel CPU. They film the whole thing and thank us for the free money. What could possible go wrong?"
Its the best marketing idea ever. Intel gets huge advertising over a long time span for basically pennies. Linus gets free videos over a long time span Linus's employees each get $5000 upgrades And we the viewers get really fun videos. Its brilliant. (also they don't have to buy an intel cpu) Most of them are because all those cores are really only useful in super high tier workstations. Which they have at work, where they do work. Where-as going with a faster CPU like intel can impact games. Planet Zoo for example. That type of game gets bottlenecked by the main game thread very easily.
I mean $5k for millions of views on a video that positively mentions intel multiple times and encourages people to upgrade their setups out of jealousy? Sounds like an amazing bang for your buck campaign. Plus Linus and all his employees probably have a super big appreciation to intel which potentially favors all future content about them.
It’s guaranteed to be a positive video for 25 minutes to hundreds of thousands of eyeballs. $5k is cheap! It’s hard to be anything but positive about Intel for the duration of the video - they gave away free stuff and no souls changed hands 😄
This guy is awesome, no wonder you put him in charge of making sure people are ok. Love the tech upgrades, so glad you have lots of staff. hahahaha. Thanks.
For being only 21, Nolan really has his head screwed on. He seems like a really nice person, and I can imagine he's really helpful and nice to customers he works with. I suppose this is proof of Linus' statement "world class talent" being true.
Right! I was nowhere near mature enough to have a career at 21, I worked at the Polo Factory Store lol. Way more concerned with partying and "having fun".
Nolan helped me when I ordered the wrong sized deskpad and fixed my order just before they all went out of stock! He deserves every penny of Intel’s money!
Yep i had my old Xbox 360 from home and a beat up hand me down 17in display. That was my setup. Oh also a Toshiba satellite with a borked battery. I could play Civ III for about an hour at time without that thing dying even while plugged in.
Honestly, the best upgrade yet. Clean, all-encompassing gaming setup(s). And a giant snorlax. And a fresh face from LTT to entertain us. I feel like he could be a great host too!
Linus falling onto that snorlax made me jump because I heard a slight ding like he was milimeters from knocking himself out on that table but got lucky that only his hat hit it.
This is the guy we all needed: a chaotic evil character. Jokes aside, Nolan could probably do some tech news. Then, Linus destroyed everyone with “At least my generation could theoretically afford a house.”. Nice.
Right??? I was like "the fuck you mean you're 21‽" Most people I know at 21 have a laptop, maybe a desktop and an SBC (engineering student) and that's it.
@@akkesm currently at university, I have a desktop with sufficient hardware for me (not that I have the time for extensive gaming right now anyway lol), but this just blows the bottom out of the bucket. When I am done studying, have a good degree and found a well paying job, I aim to have something like that...
Wow, Nolan is the same age I am and is clearly frickin’ killing it in life. Certainly doing better than myself and most other 21 year olds out there. Very respectable and rewarding job, nice looking home, free tech, what more could you want? Mad props to him, seriously.
Clearly if there's ever a slump in the customer support and relations department, Nolan could easily fill in for one of the hosts for a video. I guess his experience streaming has made him a lot more comfortable in front of a camera.
These is one of my favorite LTT series. Its not a show case of a specific product but I've gotten a few good ideas from previous episodes that I would have never thought of!
I’m actually surprised it’s been this long since the last Intel Extreme Tech Upgrade. But considering that these take up resources in terms of how many camera operators are available, I can understand why. Still, I’m happy for Nolan & his upgrade. That said, I wonder what Linus has against PlayStation. And any chance you could post the Jamie section somewhere (Ex: Floatplane)?

@@arklanuthoslin Linus being 35 puts him having bought his first house between probably 10-15 years ago, if it was 10 years ago that means that that house (if it were in the area that I am in) would sale for about double . If it were 15 years ago then it would sale for around 3 to 4 times the original price. I'm 25 and I make a somewhat decent salary for my age. I can not afford a house, I can not afford a rent on an apartment. Me, just like most of my friends my age live with our parents still because we can not afford to live literally anywhere else while also making car and insurance payments and being able to get groceries.
@@vax6575 Not everyone his age and older (I'm 40) was in a position to buy a house back then. I sure as hell wasn't, and am still not. Not remotely. I don't know many people who are or were, at least in the US. So I'm very much involved in the housing market in the same manner. I have coworkers your age with my exact job and income. I'm older, but that doesn't automatically make me more successful.
Ya the days of kicking your kids out the house when they hit 18 is long gone if you do that your instantly putting that kid on the street homeless even if he has a job there no way he's moving into a house that's not shared it's to expensive.
Idk if it was much of a burn he looks like he is living in a pretty nice house with a lot of luxury items, living a pretty good life there financially wise also don't see it being any easier for Linus's generation to afford housing like shit is crazy
This series is one of my favorite things you do, Linus. Nolan is a fan favorite from my view. May he could do a video on customer care and recovery. Just a thought.
Got to say getting a new Xbox, playstation, blender, 3080, tv and 12 gen Intel. That might be the best way I've seen this money spent. Use the 5 grand on all the expensive stuff and get the other stuff over time.
@@xhmotorsports TBH people get way too anal about that. Yeah, the pump might not last quite as long, and it'll be a little noisier, but it'll work alright.

I don't care how much camera time Jonzi already gets, he needs more. Also, can I like hire him out to just to sign up for raffles and sweepstakes for me? Finally, shows how much Linus knows, this might be my favorite upgrade since Anthony.
Just pointing out that at 0:13 seconds, Linus was about 2 inches away from turning this into a field trip to the emergency room when he fell onto that Snorlax lmaooo
I just really love meeting the staff at LMG through these videos. It's great to see the long-time employees but seeing your more recent hires is great content!
He's 21 and he has a beautiful apartment giant TVs, multiple consoles, high-end Pc with 3 monitors, expensive ass chair. All this as customer support. As someone from a third world country, this is legit blowing my mind. I am an IT support for enterprise and it's a dream for me to have all this that's not even be achievable in the foreseeable future. Happy for him but reality just hit me.
It's even more insane for people with higher education. In the US if you go to medical school and become a doctor, you earn $250,000/year straight out of school. You can be a millionaire before the age of 30, with basically zero risk guaranteed job security. The world isn't fair at all.
@@trapical yeah no. Takes 10+ years to become a licensed doctor. Say you start at age 18, finish at 28, that gives two years of possible income before the age of 30.
It’s surprising how casual they are together considering the 14 year age gap. That much age difference between me and my boss and I’m like, “Yes sir. I’m extremely grateful for the upgrade. Don’t worry this won’t affect my work performance sir.”
My old boss was 20 years older than me, and the attitude was “the only reason I’m helping you is because I like fixing things, I can’t believe how useless you are at it”
Linus: "Many people come away from these tech upgrades as new fan favorits... that ain`t gonna be you" Linus he is your Customer Support guy. He better already be a fan favorit
Wait this man is only 21???? Holy shit I wish I was living like he is when I was 21... I'm 24 and still living at home and kinda struggling. Nolan really has his shit together, damn
i think anyone whos going to be contacting him are going to be hardcore ltt fans so i doubt anyone is going to be that rude considering there is only so many things they sell.......if someone is freaking out over a error with something they sell that person has a problem in life
I like Nolan, he has a bright personality. Also I absolutely envy his storage setup Its completely ridiculous but good thing its Intels Money. This was funny.
The "Bone" graphic novel series instantly makes you my favorite LTT staff member. I don't even care that you spent all your money on white RGB fans, and a PS5. 🤣
There is a non-zero chance that Nolan has answered a customer support ticket asking when the yellow bananas will be back in stock . . . and that the person who sent in that ticket might have watched this video.
So Jamie worked for best buy wall mounting TVs for 4 years and gets a sweet gig at LTT… mounting TVs 😂
Man can see the future, clearly he had to guarantee his skills wouldn’t be obsolete. Given the state of best buy vs. Amazon.😂
Thank you for letting me like #69 :)
"Jamie you're a host now, but we might cut it if you suck" - Then the editor just ruins his life like that.

@@vax6575 Not everyone his age and older (I'm 40) was in a position to buy a house back then. I sure as hell wasn't, and am still not. Not remotely. I don't know many people who are or were, at least in the US. So I'm very much involved in the housing market in the same manner. I have coworkers your age with my exact job and income. I'm older, but that doesn't automatically make me more successful.
Ya the days of kicking your kids out the house when they hit 18 is long gone if you do that your instantly putting that kid on the street homeless even if he has a job there no way he's moving into a house that's not shared it's to expensive.
Idk if it was much of a burn he looks like he is living in a pretty nice house with a lot of luxury items, living a pretty good life there financially wise also don't see it being any easier for Linus's generation to afford housing like shit is crazy
This series is one of my favorite things you do, Linus. Nolan is a fan favorite from my view. May he could do a video on customer care and recovery. Just a thought.
Got to say getting a new Xbox, playstation, blender, 3080, tv and 12 gen Intel. That might be the best way I've seen this money spent. Use the 5 grand on all the expensive stuff and get the other stuff over time.
Finally - someone in LTT whose home design I like.
bro there’s nothing there 😭
@@dice6541 yes, and the colors are toned\pleasant. I like that.
The apartment design, color scheme, and the whole neighborhood looks very northern european.
"This is the last install of the day, how about I put it there and you like it?" --- Now we know why Nolan is Customer Care and Jamie is not 🤣
4:45 This is the first time I've seen bananas for scale next to bananas, for scale.
14:38 "We might end up cutting it if you suck" - immediate cut
LMAO
Linus installed the AIO so that the pump was at the highest position in the loop. Yikes.
Came here to say the same thing lol
Comment should be higher up. This shit kills pumps
@@xhmotorsports TBH people get way too anal about that. Yeah, the pump might not last quite as long, and it'll be a little noisier, but it'll work alright.

I don't care how much camera time Jonzi already gets, he needs more.
Also, can I like hire him out to just to sign up for raffles and sweepstakes for me?
Finally, shows how much Linus knows, this might be my favorite upgrade since Anthony.
I think Linus is chucking CPU's on the ground for the memes at this point
Just pointing out that at 0:13 seconds, Linus was about 2 inches away from turning this into a field trip to the emergency room when he fell onto that Snorlax lmaooo
Thinking the same thing here
customer care? so this is the GIGA CHAD that gifted me another water bottle? love you man
I just really love meeting the staff at LMG through these videos. It's great to see the long-time employees but seeing your more recent hires is great content!
He's 21 and he has a beautiful apartment giant TVs, multiple consoles, high-end Pc with 3 monitors, expensive ass chair. All this as customer support. As someone from a third world country, this is legit blowing my mind. I am an IT support for enterprise and it's a dream for me to have all this that's not even be achievable in the foreseeable future. Happy for him but reality just hit me.
It's even more insane for people with higher education. In the US if you go to medical school and become a doctor, you earn $250,000/year straight out of school. You can be a millionaire before the age of 30, with basically zero risk guaranteed job security.
The world isn't fair at all.
I'm pretty sure he rents it, and he has a roommate.
Not bad for a 21-year-old at all, but hardly the paradise some are making it out to be.
@@trapical yeah no. Takes 10+ years to become a licensed doctor. Say you start at age 18, finish at 28, that gives two years of possible income before the age of 30.
Its not like this for the average North American, most people you see living lives like this are drowning in debt to afford all their fancy gadgets.
Its not his own home. He rents it. And prices are cheap for tech products in western countries.
To be fair, my "fan favorite" now, because he said he does not want to be in the Metaverse. MY MAN!
Has anyone else noticed how close that coffee table was when Linus did the drop of faith?
Nolan seems like a genuinely awesome person. He is very nice and down to earth.really cool to see him get screen time.
2:36 OMG THR HIVEMIND HOODIE
It’s surprising how casual they are together considering the 14 year age gap. That much age difference between me and my boss and I’m like, “Yes sir. I’m extremely grateful for the upgrade. Don’t worry this won’t affect my work performance sir.”
Age is just a number, you should be able to get on with anyone, no matter how many times they have spun around the sun
My old boss was 20 years older than me, and the attitude was “the only reason I’m helping you is because I like fixing things, I can’t believe how useless you are at it”
So what about the age gap? I'm 19, and I have a friend who is 37. We both like PCs and tech.
What do you think aging does? lmao
Out of anyone from LTT I resonate with Nolan the most, all his decisions are the same ones I woulda made lmfao
0:25 Dell: He's the guy who sells upsells on insurance and warranty
Imagine being so good at your job that your boss never needs to talk to you
Linus: "Many people come away from these tech upgrades as new fan favorits... that ain`t gonna be you"
Linus he is your Customer Support guy. He better already be a fan favorit
Brandon: "This is the last install of the day. How about I put it there and you like it."
My sides!
7:32 If that wasn't scripted... Damn, this man needs his own show.
Wait this man is only 21???? Holy shit I wish I was living like he is when I was 21... I'm 24 and still living at home and kinda struggling. Nolan really has his shit together, damn
Nolan is definitely a new fav of mine on the team, him and Sarah are neck and neck lol
He's adorable, and precious; no wonder he's in customer support. I hope people are kind to him.
i think anyone whos going to be contacting him are going to be hardcore ltt fans so i doubt anyone is going to be that rude considering there is only so many things they sell.......if someone is freaking out over a error with something they sell that person has a problem in life
I like Nolan, he has a bright personality. Also I absolutely envy his storage setup Its completely ridiculous but good thing its Intels Money. This was funny.
Would be really cool if i could get a link to the monitor stand he's using, i have a triple monitor set up myself but most arms i've found are dual.
The "Bone" graphic novel series instantly makes you my favorite LTT staff member. I don't even care that you spent all your money on white RGB fans, and a PS5. 🤣
That intro was fire!!!! I love the slow improvement of the intros throughout the years. This one is definitely the best one too
11:30 I thought he was saying the bananas themselves were his roommates. It took me a second to realize he meant the bananas were FOR his roommate. 🤣
Gamers Nexus would have a field day with that AIO install. Pump cannot be the highest point!
TBH people get way too anal about that. Yeah, the pump might not last quite as long, and it'll be a little noisier, but it'll work alright.
It'll be just fine.
He’s definitely a fan favorite now lol
There is a non-zero chance that Nolan has answered a customer support ticket asking when the yellow bananas will be back in stock . . . and that the person who sent in that ticket might have watched this video.
Linus, he really has a future in LTT. He sounds like he has the talent to be a host.
I’m pretty sure Nolan is my third or forth most favorite non-Linus member of the team after Andy, Jake and Alex.
I want him as a host in the future!!!!!
Its very wholesome how much of your staff has pokemon plushies.
Bring your pokemon to work day.
14:16 I freaking love this guy!
