For a moment, I thought that Linus had gone through puberty.
Profile pic sauce? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Ball nah Linus will never go trough puberty
lol your profile pic is mad
yeaaa whats the name of the hentai bro( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) don't be shy( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) come on spit it out ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Maldives Ball profile picture origin for research purposes of course
Meanwhile my machine sounds like a jet turbine when I start it up.
CptHuggyFace hahaha mine as well lol
CptHuggyFace Oh good days without pwm fan control, fans at 100%, lift off confirmed. I don't miss them, even though I'm still using 2 in my midtower lol.
I can control mine somewhat, but it does a damn good job keeping the system under 60 C under load.
My system sounds like an outdoor unit of A/C lol. My previous one sounded like CRDi diesel XD
Mine sounds like one when I start it up, but thats just how the motherboard works, then it quiets down to make the HDD and Annoying "GPU Snore" to noisiest part of the system.
I've had this for nearly 4 years and am considering upgrading the internals. Thanks Linus, dropping the 2 grand was well worth it.
@@itsdomtoo yes it can run all of those and more
Me too i bought it 4 years ago. I really want the new one the ROG Huracan.
Is the pc good and silent
I got one with a 1060 6gb for $450 🔥
Can u guys change the rgb colors?
Wow. I loved the new video style. The background music sounded great. Also, the b-roll set is looking great. Good work guys.
So...wait, you can't clean the PC from dust without voiding the warranty?
Rebasepoiss sub for sub?
Every prebuilt PC works like this. It's stupid.
Tibor Klein you're wrong.not all prebuilt pc have that.
Whether there's a sticker or not, technically opening the case on ANY premade PC will "void" the warranty, there's a notice in the paperwork we don't read or the sticker, not that it matters
Rebasepoiss sa oled eestlane ve
Checks price around 1.5k. Closes the amazon webpage
It has a 1080, what did you expect?
On amazon it's actually the 1070
That's a pretty damn fair price. I'm actually shocked, I was expecting like 2,500+
Yeah the price is :)
te86a I got myself a g20 over the summer from microcenter on sale for $150 less than the sum of its parts. its spectacular.
I've seen this case and builds many times in megastores and computer specialized shops, but never gave much credit nor went after learning more about the rig... and I'm impressed. Very!
I bought this for my first pc back around the time this video came out. I got one for gaming, my dad got one too for graphic design. The 1070 on mine died a couple years ago though, so now what's still working is being sold to my buddy doing his first build. BUT my dads has lasted just fine until now. I swapped out the HDD for a SSD not that long ago, and with everything stock, I can say this machine still works great, especially with games a few years old. This thing has/had staying power.
I'm supposed too be playing Game Of War but this one player keeps kicking my ass.
CrispCarbon Is it The legend27?
GisterThomas Games yea the legend27
SquirrelofDOOM6 Who is TheLegend27?
Some say that thelegend27 was the first legend27 player to ever legend27
i keep getting beat by thelegend28 :/
Is this video by one of the new editors? This video is extremely different from the normal style.
+Noah Cunning Berkel shot and edited it with me.
That is where it went wrong. Linus got involved. ;)
The edit was pretty good thooo
Why did you stop uploading in 4k?
It is 4k
Ive had this thing for years, but The software struggled with something so it has just been collecting dust. Im new to this computer stuff so this really helped! Thanks👍
Great video, always like watching these, still on the looking for a tv box style video pc that i can play games on an ok rate... your pronunciation of sata always makes me smile
rgb... easy as 123.. simple as pcb, led, + wiring baby you and me girlllll
well done...
Linus Sebastian haha
The Three Horned Flink that's a fake linus
Jacob Stoffer still made me giggle a little bit.. saying "well done" on something i half asses makes me laugh
very good
So did Linus manage to procure a pair of AirPods? I was surprised when he said he was going to be getting them Sunday.
He did not. That's why you're watching this right now instead :p
LinusTechTips That's a shame. I thought they weren't supposed to arrive at stores until Monday anyway.
hi there can you make a vid on the Phillips Hue/home kit set up (gaming/home theater )
we were misinformed.
LinusTechTips can you give me a PC or gaming laptop for Christmas? Because I don't have one.
haven't seen a linus video in abut a year cause I've been busy with school... It's good to see the important stuff is still here when I need it, feel right at home lol.
man you make awesome videos and have a gr8 sense of humor of course u already no that keep up the good work bro.I love your videos
Why do hardware companies always trying to push rgb lighting on us?
raindrizzle14 Because RGB rhymes with MLG.
Because it beats having multiple versions of the same system that come in different colors? Some people like the lights and want it to match their room/hardware theme
Extremely minimal hardware cost worth huge marketing wank?
Because they think all gamers have the mental age of 12 - 15 years old, and so they can try to justify their markups on hardware most people don't really need.
I'd better have customizable RGB than being stuck with a colour that I don't like.
HE IS BACK BOYS WITH THE LATE UPLOADS
OH YA BABY
Michael mu. just what I needed at 2:21 am
Want me to keep you up even longer?
late? pff, it's just monday morning. its not late u just live on the wrong side of the planet :D
Its really quite.
so true lol
I love your pre-built reviews. Its always computers that are truly unique and offer something for their premium. Not the bullshit people get ripped off for when they could build.
I bought mine November 2016, specifically the G20CB-B21, and I've had really mixed feelings using this as my main rig for the last over 5 years. I upgraded to a 1TB SSD from the 1TB HDD summer 2019 and it was honestly a total pain in the rear breaking this thing open to upgrade it. I actually kept the original HDD inside and so technically have 2TB of storage, but my HDD is where I put backups and archives. At times I had problems with the GTX not powering on and only the Intel graphics workings, but much later than I should have known, realized it was because the weird dual-cord power-brick power supply was not getting enough power from where it was plugged in. My top gripe about this computer was finding out that it's actually all laptop hardware masquerading as a desktop, which is one of the oddest things and something I'd never seen before. I only bought this rig because I was trying to start my credit history, and in that regard, I definitely have no regrets. The computer has served me very well these past 5 years and played most any game I threw at it in maximum or high res.
I've had this PC (not exact same, but pretty much the same) for about a year and a half now. Works great
But mine has a gtx 760 and no ssd :(
just buy the new one.
GTX 760 still has enough punch to play lots of new games at 60 fps+ at 1080p.
ONLY 2000$? Fuck it I'll have 2.
I have one of the older ones, I got it because I had no space in my college apartment. It is an awesome little machine. I appreciate that they upgraded it to have 16 gigs off the back, a built in SSD and a HDD. The power brick was a little goofy but all in all it's a silent power house in a small box
Not amd but it is a 4790 on socket 1150 so upgrading the processor will not happen lol
Thank you for finally showing the price of a reviewed product in the video itself.
#LinusLateTips
DanielRichards644 yup
oh shit its 12 where i live
Luke
It was already several hours into Monday where I lived when this video went up.
DanielRichards644 Shit Linus uploaded this at like 8 am where I live.
I have this Pc but the g20aj version. I love it compared to my other builds and the only thing i did is upgrade the gpu to the 1050ti.
Nice. Very tempting option versus building one.
I've had mine for 5+years and the only issue was my graphics card pooped itself a few months ago, but that was so easy to replace...and the new one I have is even better than the original card. Upgradeable af and I love my computer
i love how Linus says that big pcs are going away and I just look to my right and I'm like oh yea my pc is giant
Please Make A Video For tearing down this RIG
OMG im back to this channel after 4 months and he gained like 400 k sub keep it going linus
love u guys and ur work. keep doing that
World's ugliest thumbnail.
jason200912 meh
jason200912 its the whole clickbaitey braille skateboarding bullshit
Well dang, a swanky pc that doesn't cost twelve times the price of the core components. That's pretty cool!
Great computer.Have upgraded mine a few times and its still just GREAT.I want more of these smaller super computers.Sold my homebuilt computer and keept this one.😀
Love the video, ... Due to lack of space, really thinking about getting back into the PC Gaming world, as im currently Cloud Gaming..
nobody:
my pc’s fans when i touch the mouse a bit:
[loud jet turbine noises]
Same
4:33 "both marginally better at best"
Nah, that's just Intel mate
Elias come on they can't make it sound like amd is on the rise ryze or something
I have one and I love it. thanks for the review.
Merry Xmas Linus!
Linus' voice is all over the place during this video.
I just want to mention that this configuration is the only silent one.
I've got an older model and it's terribly loud, the external power suply sucks and my core was already broken due to bad cooling
Spagedicode ok
thank you very much for the warning about the flashing!!
I have that same thing it’s a gaming beast for how quiet it is
Was shocked that LTT had missed a day. Glad to see that wasn't the case.
EDIT: Ok having now watched the video, don't really think there was enough juicy content here to justify the weird release schedule without giving the fans a head up first.
If we miss a day, you'll know.. because Satan will be knocking on your door asking for a cup of hot chocolate to warm up.
wow posted 23 secs ago look at that
LinusTechTips Satan will come knocking when I win something off TH-cam *wink wink* *nudge nudge*
I never win giveaways lets hope this one i win is the giveaway international ?
i picture the south park Satan in this scenario.
" _Only 2000$!_ "
... Yeaah, that's like... Yeaah.
The intro to the video was great.
Like the background music [different] ... . hope to see Linus do a 80's GSN Review... Mustache & all !
Ey my dude been playing badminton on high level in denmark? Holy shet m88
Can I buy it as a barebones or just a case? That noise cancellation feature makes the audio engineer in me drool
Neurotic Sos sorry full pc only buttt you can buy a used version and rip everything out and turn it into a barebones, used ones cost bout 350/500 on ebay
get noctoua fans lol
I really hope you didn't try this. Its the worst case I have ever worked on.
@@goneal86 I haven't and never will lol
@@-__-_-_--__--_-__-_____--_-___ Phew. I was worried about you. lol
I love how Linus is actually serious about epilepsy warnings.
dude!!! I normally don't understand sh!T of what you're saying but I find it fun to watch
lol me tooo .....too much geek information for my lazy ass
Is it just me or does the amazon link lead to tubing.
fixed. Sorry about that.
LinusTechTips thanks
LinusTechTips Can you try to re-explain what Amazon got into you guys about a while back?
yea, now it goes to an amazon page for RAM sticks
Dhermesh Manghnani better than tubing
Finally I found someone that have this video!
I bought one of these with a 1070 a month ago and boy is it silent and packed with power and i was very happy with my purchase! Also my GIrlfreind got mad at me and kicked it into the wall behind it and put a whole in the wall and its still running strong this thing is very durable!!!!
Should do an update on this vid showing how to/if you can still upgrade it to make it competitive with its 2020 counterparts
Not sure if too late or too early for tomorrow upload.
living in Australia no air con so would love to know how will this perform on days when the temp is over 45 degrees Celsius.
had a thought about keeping a desktop cooler on a hot day, if their is no room for internal liquid cooling then can the air be cooled externally, by something smaller than an AC Unit, just outside the air intake?
the case looks sick which makes me wish I could by the case and build my own computer and I would wrap the computer case in black,blue,pink to give it the look I want
This product deserves a revamp.
I have this PC, I fucking love it
Husky Tube ikr sammmmmeee
Is the hard drive 1tb of ssd?
EmXtraMoney 1tb costs less on Amazon and it's better so I bought it
Husky Tube does your adapter keep on overheating?
No, mine is fine. Why?
I'd like to know what temps the CPU and GPU were running at during the stress tests.
+SleepyCroyd CPU temps are in the video and GPU temps are 82 C just like every GTX 1080. Clock speed is a much bigger variable for these cards since they basically clock up too they hit 81-83C.
LinusTechTips my gtx1080 clocks at 87 is that fine for ultra setting? seems a bit high.
Just hopefully constructive feedback - I don't think the viewer should be expected to know that, as soon as you're a viewer that follows tech and computers closely, but not "watching a couple of videos on every new product" closely, it stops being common knowledge
Interesting thanks to give details about this cpu
wow this device upgraded.. into cb.i love it
Now that’s a pc I would pay that much for... That’s full on tower performance in a puny console form factor! Wow.
Don't
CookieOwl _ I enjoy mine lol. I’ve had it for 3 years and it still runs great. And since I use oculus it’s pre built for that. 👌
ive had mine for a few years and love it, quiet and can run the games i want, and thats good enough for me
Stangely enough I have this pc from Christmas
I'm supposed to be playing Farmville but TheLegend27 keeps mowing my grass. :(
TheGamingFireUltra lol
TheGamingFireUltra is he also mowing your ass?
¯\_( ͠° ͟ʖ ͠° )_/¯
is it the deadmeme27
200th like
U just defined heaven of gaming..or this gaming rig is just purely heaven
the ad sounds so much more exciting than the video itself
If I bought this a couple years ago (2013) with a GTX 750, could I upgrade the GPU? Dunno if they made any size differences, but I took it to a local shop with my 970 and they said it'd draw to much heat. I was pretty disapointed... thanks!
Ah, rest in peace. I just built a computer with the reference edition 970 that I was talking about. Thanks for the information though?
Kinda sad no one got back to you. The G20CB would have had no issue at all with that upgrade. Mine shipped with a GTX1070 and I've tried different cards in it for the lols. They all worked just fine... though the reference editions were quieter.
The thumbnail looks like it belongs to Smosh or something clickbaity.
I got one of these, it's great for music production because of the built in sound card, and when recording it is indeed very quiet. Very cool PC.
Did u try for gaming
@@Random-sw2xf Yeah it works great for gaming too, the specs are definitely enough for most games to play smoothly
@@RetroPlus thanks if i can ask you what specs do u have
@@Random-sw2xf An intel I7 4790 3.60ghz processor, a GTX 750 graphics card (will be upgrading) and 12GB of ram
@@RetroPlus nice thanks a lot
got this and i love it
tnx i won the cloth
it's really soft
Yeah for sure
Would be nice to just be able to buy the case.
All Black Everything its too small to build in
Like what welsh said you can find one but good luck finding a mobo that can fit inside it. The mobo is custom :P
Oh, I love this computer, would make a great rig for my photo editing.. and I'd have to throw a few games at it from time to time.
the silent gaming monster has been monster for over 2months. what a beast
It would've been better if Linus mentioned how hot was the CPU and GPU during the tests. O.o
Nevermind. Sorry I missed, CPU temp was included @ 2:32 but not GPU. I hope the temperature is running safe @4k
the cpu temps are still very high. my i7-6700k has never even reached 55 ==, the cpu in that pc is 6700hq..
Dickson Chng Still better than a console tho. Ehehe xD
Russel Renz Nerosa don't be like that dude, those poor peasants have no choice. :((
Dickson Chng PS4 Pro costs $550. Heh. Not me. Not interested. O.o
If only it wasn't £1,550.
nope... 4000 cad...
Hii Bro 🙋
Deal with it dude. You can't get a pro gaming desktop with a gtx 1080 for 2 pounds
Dogeisan Dan the one he put in the description has 1070 while the one he reviewed has a 1080
I got mine for £1099 on a 26% off offer
I have this PC it is simply awesome! i installed a GTX 1080 and an SSD drive couldnt be happier
its was like 1 precent and i got one of those, but that 1 procent got me an awesome gaming rig :D
when will they announce the winner? Heh or im missing out
Damn u were so early 🤣
Will there be a new Asus ROG GR6 or GR8 with a 1050ti or 1060 ?
Or RX 470
OpticalArts you mean rx420?
I've a PC like this just with i5 and gtx 970. Works like a dream.
Peter gade! 😄 best badminton player back in the day!
Im supposed to be playing Game of War, but this one player keeps kicking my ass...
Is it the legend27? (ugh, had to)
Daruko I heard that the legend 27 could throw a bolder further than a catapult
I can appreciate this because I see ads on TH-cam videos too. Well done sir, this truly gave me quite the chuckle because it references something I am familiar with. I'll make sure to post this in the comment section of the next video I watch so others can enjoy this experience.
BrechtXT is it me bitch?
Is it the deadmeme27?
Well there is a new model (orange) of this featuring kaby lake and it is just available/seen in one store in the entire world WTF? The Asus ASUS GR8 II-T036Z www.webhallen.com/se-sv/datorer_och_tillbehor/258553-asusgr8_ii-t036z-i5-7400-gtx1060-8gb-1tb_256gb_ssd_m2-win_10 It's not even on the asus site!
Yep lol
The GR8 is real m8 but specs... i call bs
omg it looks really better than this version nice asus
EdvinMaster its seen all over my country.
Ive had this for a year its beast
great Review! is this good for photo editing?
my pc still has a octa core 2600k i7 16gb ddr3 ram and a gtx 580 with 1,5gb vram
***** they're lying only old people that just need the internet to work use them, i3 is the most common
TRealJustinvzu - PC gaming and more! İts not bad oc that i7 ad a betten gpu
Ayse Karson im gonna get a 1060 6gb
***** you talkin about random gaminghd right t?
Mine barely runs GTA V at 720p, at locked 30 fps Half VSync. With a Pentium and an R7 250.
This guy forget about the dan a4? and optical drive?? what is this 2006
It will be nice to have an unboxing experience video.
I upgraded my Rog 20j with 1660 super and 16G ram. I got it 6 years ago. Still runs everything great.
Well, story time:
My friend owns one of those, and he always complained about how it is soooooooooo slow. When I visited him, he showed it to me and it was full of viruses and adware.
I'm sitting here with my ~3 yrs old homebuilt pc, and I could have SLAPPED HIM.
I hate ppl who use a pc without knowing how to
Same I have a friend who doesn't know anything about a pc yet he has a $4000 gaming pc and he mostly just plays minecraft and really easy to run games
Ethan Dunn 4000$?? What kind of PC is that? It is too much even for a gaming pc...
WTF!? What porn shit was he going to?! My buddy has a 1500$ rig he built and don’t even have protection because he’s not an idiot XD
I’m sorry that’s just your friend for being clueless... if he wants to look at porn use an I pod or I phone. ( I personally wouldn’t recommend porn and rather just get a gf but I digress...)
Pornelius Hubert it’s weird tho because I have an antivirus (mccafe) and scan almost every day and none come up. Then a couple months ago, customer support for bo4 found adware!!! Anyone got any tips for virus hunting?
I would’ve been like “if u let me have it for a couple days I could fix it” then just be like “oh it’s completely broken. Beyond repair” and if he didn’t care about having it back, just kept it
but, i like my giant towers.
love the infomercial intro XD
Yep. i think Im gonna have to buy this. And it's on sale in my area.
Welsh_Gaming Hey. Im currently residing in Switzerland. I was planning on buying this beast. but then I came across the Alienware 15 with a graphics amplifier. So i havent decided yet
Daaaancceeeeee!
The rgb lighting made my eyes hurt. Send Help
*writes a comment to send help after f"cking up eyes*
nice and humorous video !! :)
Just bought the 1070 version for 1099 at Best Buy a week ago, such a upgrade from my 770 and 8350..
