    Hey, everyone! It's been a long time since we've done basically a direct update for the audience on GN in general. We tend to just focus on making the hardware/reviews content these days (with occasional pieces just for fun), but rarely do the old-school style updates on what we're trying to do. A lot of that is because we have more ability these days to realize those goals, so we try to just pursue them -- but it's nice to go back to roots and have a more dedicated discussion of "here's what we want to do and here's what we enjoy." The mini-site was just kind of a good excuse to make this video. It's also nice to put the ethics & ad statements down somewhere permanent, because it's hard to find the old videos discussing those things since they're so buried. Ultimately, agree or disagree, our main goal is that it's all out there and transparent so you know where we stand. The mini-site was really fun to build and, although we hope it doesn't require many additions to the Catastrophic Failure List, we do greatly enjoy that style of testing and can't wait to do more! Until then, it's back to reviews! FAILURE LIST: gamers.nexus/failure-list

      @@Dowlphin You've been taught a very warped, very wrong view of capitalism.
      The simplest definition of capitalism is an economic system where ownership is private instead of state-owned.
      Anything beyond that is the failures of individuals, which can and do happen - particularly in unregulated markets or when the methods of restraint (regulations and oversight) are captured by the very companies they are intended to oversee and existing laws are left unenforced or are enforced unevenly.

    • @Dowlphin
      @Dowlphin ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@KenrilZ No, you are lacking homework and reduce capitalism to the most convenient, tiny and most neutral aspect.
      Many of the things you and others call the good, the 'real' properties of capitalism are actually things that were established through bloody socialist struggle, like said market regulation. Before that there was basically robber barons running the show and working people to death, and of course with slavery as its extreme - the theft of people, among other forms of theft. So this is part of the ideological cringe: That apparently capitalism only 'works' if there is constant pushback by socialist principles to reign it in. But at the same time staunchly capitalist libertarians badmouth things like market regulation as communist evil.
      This is the immature clown show of the USA. One would have to study the history of the USA and maybe read some Marx to see how predictable and obvious everything is.
      Should you eventually decide to pursue enlightenment instead of tribalist comfort, it is helpful to first read an article "Mike Davis on the Crimes of Socialism and Capitalism" (no endorsement of Jacobin by me, though) and then the (online) book "Settlers - The Mythology of the White Proletariat", a thorough historical and sociological study written by a Japanese immigrant.

    Amazing stuff as usual. Really appreciate y'alls contributions to accountability and product quality in this space that's so often rife with rumor and tribal knowledge. I love the idea behind the new website! I would love to see it possibly grow one day into something more. My first thought when you began talking about the idea is that it would be amazing to have user profiles on the site. Users could create profiles with PC builds and attach part numbers. If there was to be an issue with any of the parts in your build, say six months, a year, two years, etc. down the line, the user would receive an email letting them know of a potential issue. Similar to how car recalls are handled. That would be a ton of work, no doubt, but the end result would be really cool imo. Anyway, hope y'all read this and keep up the amazing work!

      I hope they're willing to look back a generation too. A lot of people stuck with AM4 because they were specifically worried about early adoption/bleeding edge issues, myself included. But that doesn't leave me feeling very relaxed, because I'm currently running an ASUS B550 board. Were the Zen4 chips exploding because ASUS made a boo-boo? Or were they falsfying and juicing their voltages on purpose, in order to make their boards appear more stable at "lower" voltages than the other board partners? If that happens to be the case, then it's highly likely that they did it with last gen as well. And if it's more widespread than ASUS, this could actually be one of those dirty secrets among motherboard manufacturers. Hoo boy, this could be a real shitshow.

      To a degree is is also the responsibility of consumers driving a competitive highscore craze. Although, it is also just the whole capitalist system under it, because if everybody agreed to not care about overclocking, then the businesses would try to find something else to differentiate themselves with and compete against each other.

Jayz and GN, were my 2 primary sources for hard data and info. In Nov, I ordered my parts, after having chosen to go the AM4 route vs the new AM5 build. 5800X3D on an NZXT N7 MB. (white build). With the recent events around the AM5 board/chip issues...I'm REALLY glad I went with the previous gen for the build. TY Steve, for what you, and your crew do. The info, is HIGHLY appreciated.

    With regards to you commenting how the written portion of the site means a lot to you, one thing I think is missing that would be *super useful* to have in writing for me personally would be a singular place on the site where I can get the most up to date comparison of GN's benchmarks for CPUs but *especially* GPUs, with bonus points for having historical comparisons too (I know your testing standards have changed over the years and so on but sometimes making a connection between massive GPU generation gaps is extremely helpful to demonstrate to people).
    It has *actually happened* to me IRL no less than four times by this point over the span of about a year that someone has directly asked me to compare their GPU to the current market in terms of performance. Now I keep a reasonable handle on how well the last couple of generations of GPUs have performed relative to eachother, but let me tell you that I do *not* keep a mental note of how well an RX 580 performed. I *especially* don't keep a note of how it does against say a 3070, and sure I can kind of spitball it by working backwards, but I have actively gone out of my way to look up GN resources to refresh my basis of comparison so I could get a decent idea. Each time it has been kind of awkward and I have had to google my way around different GN videos and I've personally found my self *really* wishing for a centralised place on your site where I can just look up the info in text, I even went there to look the first time.

    GN is directly responsible for giving me both the interest and confidence to build my first pc. The technical focus of a channel not afraid to include walls of product performance stats while incorporating real-world user considerations was so effective that my first-ever build was done while drinking a sixxer of tall boys without error. Furthermore I bought the GN driver set on the whim that it might ease the build assembly process, which they did in a sublime fashion. After watching their content for several years now, I have an even better sense of which brands and products to invest in for future upgrade/build purchases. The fanhood sentiment is such that days were spent pining for a realistic way to move locally during their most recent staff hiring sequence.

    Amazing video: hugely helpful to learn about the Ethics Statements through this kind of formalization, as well as having them all together in a nice place that can be searched for in the future.
    Concrete example: this demonstrates that your corrections in the 13900 case were in line with your own Corrections policy, which implicitly explains why the method of correction you ended up with was chosen (even if the top comment didn't fully do this). Visibility of these policies was indeed quite a problem, so now that they're all nicely centralized it makes for easy referencing of these policies in any corrections notes in the future as well (which will give us a nice reminder of their existence and you an excuse to tell someone to RTFM :-) ).
    This kind of video goes a long way in demonstrating that Gamers Nexus practices what it preaches, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who absolutely appreciates you're holding the channel to the same high moral standards as you're holding those companies that get a guest appearance in 'GN court'. :D

    Depending on how you want to organize the "Resolved to GN's Standards" column, would it be better to use a simple "yes" or "no"? The "eventually" seems too vague without explanation. How long? Was it in bad faith? etc.
    If you stick to using "eventually", I think a link to a brief explanation would be a good idea. (just for "eventually", not "yes" or "no" just to clarify)

      I'm actually pretty surprised we haven't seen more widespread failures, but I think that speaks to some level of resilience and (often underappreciated) hard work from a lot of dedicated people. Not to excuse bad products, of course, but the times we live in do account for some of the issues.

      Go look at the last digital foundry episode. Spoiler, it seems to have power managment problems that seem to be bios related. Richard noted that it gets lower performance when the power cable is plugged in for some reason. It sounds like a bad joke but sadly it's not.
      Peace

      @@PerpetuallyTiredMusician I just looked for that video, all I can find is a talking heads video where they say "The review is coming, but its about 1% better than the steam deck." When did they release the video that says that? In the Talking heads video, all he noted was he received different bench marks at home than in his office, and the second talking head said "I wonder if this is suffering form the Bios issue Asus is having?" and he said "it's possible".

    it's been an amazing ride, watching the channel grow, the 1mln mark, an now the 2 mlns.
    GN has set the standard for quality content.

      Answered this many times. We will be making progress as soon as we can. Our team is currently inundated. It took us 2+ years to review a PSU after showing our equipment. Will be similar here.

      Releasing games in a broken state is a time honored tradition that is nearly as old as video games themselves!

    this minisite is such a great idea tbh, having information easily accessible is very important and the system you all made for this in such a short time seems perfect, especially the newsletters, will sign up to that one for sure and i never do that lol
    Loved the ethics and transparency updates and info about how gamers nexus operates, im glad that the company growing didnt mean becoming less human and more corporate and that getting a bigger following didn't corrupt any of the ethics, you all are doing amazing work and im very glad it's going so well for you.
    Also the sponsors segment was very interesting, i completely agree with your take on this tbh, wish more people were as mindful about this as you because i see many people just not care and do ads about anything and we all end up having to skip 1-3 minute segments on every video and it feels very wrong.
