@@vfreeman3188 They said that it might not be legal to send it to Canada, and they said they talked to them directly and knew they had to set it as a mouse. So...smuggling tip is an accurate description.

2021: Nvidia said we couldnt crypto-mine on this gaming card
aren't they trying to put locks on the cards so you can't mine with them?
@@benvanmil7059 I think following a US court judgment, they backpedaled on that almost immediately. Don't quote me though; it's just a vague recollection from GN's latest weekly news recap.
@@buckiez (tinfoil hat on) hmm... accidentally... yeah... totally not so there’d be an unlocked driver floating around!
@@buckiez that’s what I know about the situation: the rtx 3060 has some build in hard ware that prevents it from going full power while mining so the miners don’t buy it and there are more cards for gamers and creators that actually need it. But miners have found some way to get around this and run it at full power while mining
I believe they also wanna put this "lock" inside other 30 series cards but haven’t done yet
"it costs under 70$ " ----- 2021 Update it might have cost under 70$ , but now it costs 464$
it's super strange, I don't know if it's for the card or for the driver but ¥3000 is around 30 bucks!!? Има някаква шашма! :)
@@Kostaaa8 Um no its ¥3000 and that Yuan not Yen , biiig difference - in Japanese Yen ¥3000 is 29$ but in ¥3000 Chinese Yuan its 464$ , and in this case since its a Chinese seller it will be in Yuan not Yen.

Disables Secure Boot
Allows unsigned drivers
Kills Windows Update
*SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN*
Win 7 still works too haha
You literally can enable all of that shit once you get the GPU configured.
@@dmaskell92 yes, but why not leave it off hehehe
Party like it's Windows 95.
Secure boot has enough flaws and vulnerabilities to make it basically useless as a form of protection, but very inconvenient for normal users when a windows update inevitably breaks compatibility and forces you to disable it anyways (as has happened to me multiple times already)
Sticking to signed drivers doesn't mean that they're safe, it just means that the company that pushed out the drivers you're able to install just paid some cash to Microsoft. There has been malware in signed drivers before, and it'll happen again.
Windows update is just a huge annoyance, it's perfectly fine to disable it and install updates on your own schedule instead of having windows interrupt you while you're trying to use your computer.
If you want to keep your computer safe, just make sure you have a good antivirus software installed and running. Secure boot, signed drivers, and windows update aren't nearly enough to keep your computer safe from actual malware
"I turned off motion blur because it's stupid" The words passed down for generations! The sacred text that no truth compares to!
I dont game.... what is motion blur and why does everyone hate it?
@@jimmyforester8492 When you move the view in-game motion blur makes the edges of the screen more blurry for a more realistic/cinematic effect but that is not good looking and especially in shooter games it can make it more difficult to see enemies becausd they might be hidden by the blur sometimes
Well sometimes I like motionblur on games
I think the problem is that games tend to exaggerate motion blur too much. When they make it barely noticeable instead, or adjustable, they achieve the desired result.
@@Tomoyou No, it's used to imitate the way your vision blurs when you move your head to look around. But since you're seeing everything through a screen and not actually there you will notice the blur much more easily. Which is why games should make it even less noticeable.

"In order to get it shipped they had to put it down as a computer mouse"
Linus Illegal Tips
The "law makers" preventing people from making a voluntary exchange, are the ones that are being illegal.
I don’t know what I hate more. That Linus ratted them out or that there’s a stupid regulation like this anyway.
The first 3 times I heard it as "they had to put down a computer mouse"
# mice lives matter
To be fair, this would probably be the responsibility of the unnamed seller and not Linus himself.
Yes, that's illegal.
The PRC doesn't allow "high-tech" product shipping out China even in Hong Kong. I live in Hong Kong, and one time I want to buy a Bluetooth speaker on TaoBao, some well-known companies are not willing to ship it even to Hong Kong. A graphics card obviously is a high-tech product, so they have to kind of disguise it as a computer mouse to ship it out.
"I turned off motion blur because it's stupid"
FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT.
I don't anyone that actively uses motion blur, it's one of the reason i don't bother playing console any more. Fuck motion blur
Yess

MrcabooseVG I can’t remember any recent console games that don’t have a toggle for motion blur, but The Orange Box on Xbox 360 is basically “unplayable” for me because all games on there force you to use it

"except I turned off motion blur because it's stupid" - every gamer ever
Unless you dont have a PC worth a house , in which case everything is on ultra low.
I leave it on unless i can hit perfect 60. Which is not very often. And sometimes if it's not very intrusive or if it's a racing game, i leave it on even if i get full framerate. I also think, i mean, they have separable motion vectors, they should let you tune down the camera motion blur to where it's minimal or turn it off and retain entity motion blur.
@@SianaGearz it's not because performance, it's because it's a shitty effect
@@juakinbm4605 It both is and it isn't. It's the more necessary, the lower your actual framerate is, to bridge the perceptive gap. This is why and when it came about, in gen7 when they couldn't hit 60. But then, there are many cases where it plain interferes or is too heavy-handed due to technical lapses or control method. It's far more tolerable (and helpful) with a gamepad on games that don't rely on fast camera rotation, but it is prone to make you lose the spatial perception with mouse-aiming.

@@marianmarkovic5881 the thing is cpu's from AMD that don't have a G which is most of them don't have integrated graphics anyway.

NVIDIA has GRID drivers that sometimes are compatible with headless gpus and can be installed on windows server to force the gpu to render graphics and then you can use a virtual display to output.

Starting from Nvidia drivers for Linux version 435.17 you can officially pass through the output from GPU through Intel GPU.
What about windows version
Been possible for long time
@@Nobbie248 no, bumblebee was not an official solution and was not working for all application (games for example). The official solution in the drivers have no significant performance impact and works very stable. Combining that with a recent support for power saving mod it allows to both dedicated and integrated GPU to be turned on/off, the drivers will shut down Nvidia GPU if it is not used without requiring relogin.
@@djomi89 for windows it was working for ages.
How about AMD APU's?
Thank you linus so much i was scammed into buying one such gpu from india and your videos were the only thing which could make it work.
2019: lol no one will want crypto specific cards anymore
2020-2021: any crypto capable cards are selling for 3x 4x the retail price
Somewhere else in the world someone just opened a box labeled Video card with a mouse in it.......
LKNANML lol
lul
That was me...
I am the unluckiest person to ever live
then that mouse peeped into his/her face and ran away...
GPU in mouse via USB... hmmm... it can be done with old GPU with passive cooling :D
Anthony's presence on-camera is really improving!
I always liked the videos he's involved with. He knows his stuff, has a very decent elocution and has the ability to explain technical things quite well I think.
Anthony is a boss. Dude really knows his shit. I get the impression that he's kinda like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain for a lot of things that are outside of everyone else's wheelhouse. He just doesn't get the on screen recognition for it. That's my impression anyway from the little he has been on screen.
Oh he's definitely smart af
Matt T you just took the words out of my mouth lol. You can tell dudes a straight up wizard with software
He's the Canadian Wendell
Anthony: It's worth remembering that this card was basically destined for the recycling bin.
*proceeds to "recycle" the card*
This must be almost common knowledge in 2021, because the price of the "no graphics" version of these cards is not dumpster rescue cheap.
The shameless interruption of Anthony at 14:07 made my heart sink a bit.
He seemed to interrupt Anthony a lot in this one 😓
Nah. It could have been just an agreement kinda fake sad thing and he let linus say it better. Think of when you're getting fired, Anthony is your cool boss that kinda doesnt want to fire you, and Linus is the HR rep that doesnt know you and is straight up telling you to go pack your shit and leave.
@@arctikf0x698 exactly
Actually, 10:14 is where I would have killed him. =}:o] "I was explaining the thing, and you made the thing *disappear*!!!"
I thought the same, that said he did interrupt him in order to put an important legal caveat into the video to protect his business soooo
Linus: *Roots around in a trash can for 30 seconds, emerging with a half eaten cold cut combo*
Linus: *Plugs it into a PC*
PC: *Has an aneurysm*
Linus: *Disables every possible safety regulation possible that protects the PC and keeps it functioning*
Shadow of the Tomb Raider: *Runs at 4k 120fps using the cold cut as a GPU*
Linus: "Don't do this at home"
Lol
Driver signing is kind of bs tho, who has not disabled it? Along with antivirus and such, IF you actually do stuff with your computer you'll have disabled that att some point.
Quite possibly the greatest comment in history
@@LunaticCharade I don't get antivirus since I use UBlock and NoScript but I don't find any reason to turn off driver signing
Are you the guy who comes up with LTT Ideas for videos?
Linus and Anthony
scratch that
Anthony helping Linus do illegal tech stuff
Gonna love when steam does the yearly pc component survey and sees Linus using some bufu egypt crypto card to play games.
I find it ironic that installing an unsigned driver for a bitcoin mining specific GPU might actually install a bitcoin miner malware.
Lard British it would be pretty easy to tell if the graphics card was running when it shouldn’t be
@@MLGJuggernautgaming Bitcoin miner malware runs when the card is idle. How would easily know other than the sound of the GPU fans ramping up, or checking some hardware monitoring utility?
Plenty of sites w official drivers unsigned driver just means installing a driver not made for the card, so they choose a driver that is closely related to the card which millions of people do safely due to a particular driver website being safe af
You need an ASIC to mine bitcoin. You won't make a cent with bitcoin on gpu.
@@Lardzor someone doing this sort of hack will almost certainly be monitoring their system quite a bit. they'd notice something.
*Nvidia wants to know your location*
Anthony is a man of knowledge, most of what he says goes over my head or I learn something new, thank you Andy 👌
Seems like potentially a good way to go for building an eGPU for a laptop. I have a Vaio with a 3rd gen i7 and I am looking for a way to get it running newer games.
"turned off Motion blur because its stupid" perfect
Truer words
Yup
Hate motion blure
It's a pretty useless option for high end cards.
Motion blur is only good for "smoothing out" (kind of just hiding the utter effect of) really low fps situations.
"All high except motion blur because it's stupid" are the smartest words that came of your mouth. Pure wisdom sir!
This alone made me want to sub to this channel a billion times.
Motion blur and depth if field? Oh, you want to puke for 6 hours!?!
The only game that eber looked cool and didn't make me sick with motion blur was HL2: EP2
Personally i like motion blur, and for me when I often can't game at a full 60fps on my aging gaming laptop it helps to reduce image ghosting. Just my two cents.
@@johnnytopgun6414 I don't get motion sickness or anything from motion blur, I just hate the visual effect personally
@@sunwolf87 and that's console games at 30 fps for you
8:50 been there many times lol. I'm working in one Window and another pops up and takes the focus right out from under it.
I have a feeling Nvidia saw this video and thought to themselves, how can we make sure supply would be an even bigger problem for gamers this time around?
for sure!!!
Thanks for sharing my comments, i will advise you to invest in crypto now make a note to my trusted trader, do well to tell him I referred you to him

Linus do it solder a HDMI port. 😉
If it has pins to use, it'll happen.

If the BIOS is programmed not to output anything, such action is a waste of time. I am pretty certain they did, and only reuse the PCB from other cards. Stop dreaming and think more about how it works.
@@livyinverse7471 But, They could be lazy and not do that until someone does what they're suggesting.
@@livyinverse7471 Flashing the BIOS to enable the "output" is incredibly easy and even you can do it..Lulwut?:

not really sure why people like Anthony :/
