“Let us know if you want to see more TurboNerd videos”
Dear god yes
this
Yup,the videos are great but I think they are better suited for Techquickie
@@snipercat1158 True, more informative less entertainment for the GENERAL audience.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NEED MORE LIKES FOR THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hell yeah more!!!!! more!!!!
This is the youtube version of "Mods are asleep, post actual tech stuff" and I love it.
this! this comment A TRILLION TIMES
I was thinking the exact same thing. Haha
I really hope they make stuff like this more often.
"Mods are asleep! Post (heat)sinks!!"
This is 100x better than the normal linus stuff
THIS, THIS SO VERY MUCH. YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!
Turbo nerd edition has all chances to become my favorite series
I agree!🤪
Next episode they should 3d print a FGC-9, in fact, they could make a factory
@@RandyRandersonthefamous I think it could be better if they continue the route of PC Components, but, who knows🤪
Perfect balance between in-depth and general knowledge. Plus super helpful by showing mismatch between market expectations and sensible design decisions. Like tiny mobile cams with endless megapixels. Thanks!
@@maximilianheinrich2537 I agree with this very beautiful words.
Most employees when the boss is out: "Let's screw around and do as little as possible."
LTT employees, apparently: "Let's bust our asses to make valuable, informative content, teehee."
Exactly! Must be a cool place to work!
These are also the guys who are always wincing at Linus' sloppy methods. So I knew this one was going to get really into details :D
Dennis: live laugh Liao
Linus: *drops hardware more aggressively*
the first one is praxis
“Linus is on vacation” oh boy this is going to be good.
hello
lol
Not for Yvonne who has to take those 2 inches.
I remember what happened last time Linus was on vacation 😏
hey i know you
If turbonerd becomes a 30+ episode series with a playlist on your channel, i will be the happiest little LTT fan
Annnnnnnnnd you got ignored
@calebpipet kinda 😭😂 they just did labs instead to make more of their content more nerdy. Overall ignored tho am sad
Yeah.. only found this today lol
This is like a middle school team presentation, Anthony you take the CPU and go first, James, you explain the RAM after Anthony, and Alex goes last with PCI, we put it all together, and voila.
Middle school ? I've been doing that all throughout engineering school
Yea but you'd be surprised at the number of people that don't know what CPU stands for let alone what in the world Ohm's Law is.
Middle school team presentations are preparing you for life (or trying to).
@@Drewsterman777 My I.C.T. teacher in school taught the class that the CPU is the big box with the power button on it. I and my fellow nerds were like, "Uh... Sir... the CPU is inside there but the whole thing isn't the-" Teacher: "Yes, yes, I know, but we're not getting that advanced." Absolutely livid.
@@Drewsterman777 i take your Ohm's law and raise you watts law =P
Seeing Anthony nerd out and go down a rabbit hole explaining how something works is always a gift. He always makes it informative yet accessible to people who don't live and breathe computers like him.
I'd love to see a whole "turbo nerd" series about motherboards, and other electronics in-depth. I totally get that these aren't the super flashy videos that will go trending on TH-cam, because of how niche some of the stuff is, but many of us in the core audience really appreciate this.
Absolutely why i was first introduced to this channel years ago.
Storage would be a cool one
PREACH! sooo hyped for some more turbo nerd content!
To learn electronics, you are better going on a course, you cannot cover it in just a few hours of videos.
At some point Linus said he wanted to get LMG to a point where he can leave without worrying about the company. This vacation was proof he achieved that goal. Such good content!
Better without linus imho.
It's not his 1st vacation actually. He took a free week during summer as well. He honestly could just become a CEO and not appear in front of the camera ever again, but this dude just likes doing it, so I don't see that happening anytime soon.
@@Crad-YT CEO?? WHAT?
@@asifalamgir5135 CEO, Chief Executive Officer
Linus is a CEO of LMG
@@Crad-YT ceo and founder to be exact. Im guessing Yvone is related to the finance of the company
We definitely need this to become a frequent series
Deep dives into components would be sweet.
Yes.
^this^
MOre turbo nerd series would be good. Targetting one or two points in more depth.
Nah, Linus already does enough below average series, another one like this would hurt his channel.
As an electronics engineer, I'm really impressed with the deep cut.
The cutout and presented result was definitely on-point, but understanding the mechanics of the simple circuit does require some prior basic knowledge about EE, such as charging/discharging Inductors (AC current when discharging right?), diodes/resistors, and dangers of shorting the circuit.
@@knightblad5631 I also thought that was the weakest part of the video. It explains it on a very basic level, so basic that it doesn't really explain anything.
Like why is the switch with the diode in parallel necessary? Why does it fry the cpu if both switches are open? Also the flow of "electrons" doesn't make sense to me.
@@Crallux Wouldn't approach EE stuff thinking about electron flow. Think in terms of volts, amps and ohms. Much easier and more useful to do it that way.
@@alexanderkuhn2298 You can think about them as Liquid Pipes as well very good way to understand how Ampers and Volts and Owhms(resistence) works
@@mattmadcat Im an electrical engineer but thank you.
I would watch every single episode of this in a series
daisy chain those episodes
Same
Same
i fell asleep watching this and just woke up like "Omg I can't wait to see the other ones" lol sadly not yet :(
“Let us know if you want to see more TurboNerd videos”
Dear god yes!!!
yes, but more Anthony and Madison, and a whole lot more Riley. And a pinch of Dennis to make it just right.
Yeah this was very well done
Agreed
Please more of this, amazing content
Need so much more of this series! I want TurboNerds for everything!
I really liked that there was like 3 hosts on this, I dont know if was hell on filming but it really set a nice pace and each segment inside this major subject , and it made them feel distinct.
This actually really good content, less joke, more information, less linus-y. Please do more
craking a joke is a good way to keep the people's attention, go to tech jezus if u want detaild info and no joke's
@@haikodekoster5129 there other content is 99% joke 1% info. There's such thing as too much jokes
@@night.watcher they can do whatever with how they present their contents
@@haikodekoster5129 Tech Jesus' jokes are usually fire unlike Linus' lol
I like it. it has the Linus type presentation with the info.
"Linus was on vacation and we went full nerd." i mean, give to him more vacation, i love this kind of thing
IKR?!
Well, Linus IS the boss, so technically, he can go on vacation as much as he wants...
@@Entity_1011 then we can have more of this
let's just fire Linus from ltt
Make Linus Vacation Again. That’s a good vacation slogan 😂
Linus should go on vacation more often. This was seriously good content. Never heard such a good explanation of these things before. More please. Linus can come back, but more of this.
Let Linus drop stuff while these guys take care of the knowledge.
Yes please. This was the good stuff.
I can’t wait for Thor 4
You guys are overly impressed by very simple things.
_Anthony researching this video:_ "I'm about to make this man's vacation permanent"
"Let us know if you want more turbo nerd videos"
My guys, I want even deeper dives!
Me 2
I know how motherboards work, but I will watch anything presented by Anthony. He’s just so soothing, personable and knowledgeable. Fantastic video.
IF LTT starts doing very in-depth videos like this, I'll watch more of them
Never going to happen, ltt is like the gateway drug to get you started but the truly indepth things are on other channels that are as a rule of thumb always gets lower views and less subs.
@@rdkonevrd9898 It'd be sweet if a channel with enough clout could change that. Nice pipe dream, but the Internet cares about the weirdest priorities, so who knows?
@@rdkonevrd9898 probably they'll make another channel for this format... There are too many 😅
👍
This isnt even a little in-depth.
Content when Linus is there: "Let's make a solid gold Xbox Controller"
Content when Alex, James and Anthony run the show: "PC gamers are suckers, here's how your board actually works"
Don't get me wrong, I love both types of content, so keep the turbo nerd videos coming, this one was great.
PLEASE MAKE THIS A REGULAR SERIES! I love how in depth and detailed these are!
ltt regular: oversimplifications
ltt turbo nerd: the actual information
It is still a bit oversimplified imho, but at least it's indeed a lot more in depth 😁
this video was great. please do more.
More Turbo Nerd Editions please. Also let Anthony do them. His voice explaining stuff is just the best.
100% agree
I also want more of this, but I actually liked the format where they switched between presenters
I felt catfished by Anthony being the thumbnail, while only being in 33% of the video.
All of em
Tey're starting to slap a picture of his face on anything as clickbait, lol
This is basically the original “As Fast As Possible.”This is the kind of content I miss.
But this one is about 12 min, afap is about 5
@@offbeattrance How about... as reasonably lengthened as possible lmao
@@lolagepwned But then not all the info will be portrayed...
This is helpful watching as I prepare for my A+ recert.
Guys, we need more of these series! Finally I can understand the technical details behind questions I didnt know the answer! Thanks LTT!
Linus is lucky to have a team like this. True tech-savies and hard-core.
We're even more lucky to have Linus start a team like this, honestly props to them because I wouldn't have found out about my passion in tevhnology and pc building without them.
They are reading off the script - ?
@@adamk7743 a script they researched and wrote. I don't understand why tf some people hate on content creators like LTT. What exactly do you expect them to be doing?
@@adamk7743 yes, and? Do you expect them to go off and remember 20 minutes worth of content, while recording multiple tech videos are made?
@@jacintofernandes2907
They don’t seem that confident in this video(which is highly technical) as compared to other videos. That was my observation.
A lot of work is required for a video like this. It’s just that I feel they were not doing the research, someone else did
I am absolutely loving this "linus is on vacation" series.
bruh lmao
When the boss man is on vacation, this whole video feels like a class group presentation about motherboards.
Haha I came to the comments to see if anyone else got this vibe
Hahaha hahaha lmaooo so trueee, they guys need to relax and joke a bit more tho. Being thy nerds we all love, but relaxed nerds. We fam, so chill boys.
b
yes but I want more
“Linus is on vacation” and we need more Turbo Nerd from Linus Jr, I mean Anthony.
@@zanewaits8026 I came to the replies of this comment looking for this exact response.
It would be great to have more "Turbo Nerd" videos.
Finally an actual “Tech Tip”...
Wanna see my tip?
@@iyzyz send it
@@CMarkem I'm a little shy..
@@iyzyz wasnt a question
@@CMarkem I need emotional support and encouragement.
It was cool having multiple people doing different segments of the video!
Yea, makes it less boring. I mean this in a good way.
Absolutely refreshing!
I've been watching since 2013ish, and it seemed to move into a news source rather than tech tips. This is a refreshing sight to see, and I hope we get more. Thank you. For all you guys do.
"Turbo Nerd Edition"
Now you're speaking my language.
“Turbo Nerd Edition” or whatever y’all end up deciding to call it is awesome. Very cool and informative. I feel like this content is the stuff computer owners or looking to be owners need nowadays
not really lol, all I learned is that motherboard manufacturers suck.
@@AlkaVirus I actually learned why you put the ram the way you do. Didn't know that. Also I knew that for overclocking ram, only 2 sticks was better, but didn't know why until now.
Yesss! Please make more turbo nerd content this video was absolutely fascinating.
@@AlkaVirus Just like they always did
All I had to see was the whiteboard at 0:50 to realise that NOW WE'RE GETTING SOMEWHERE and this is diamond content.
and andy speaking :D
Love this kind of video, I've always wanted to learn more about how PC's actually work, and this puts it in such an accessible format, would love to see more turbo-nerd content in the future!
To be honest, this "Turbo Nerd" is my favorite now, please keep doing it.
"To the best of our ability"
Son, whenever Anthony is in the thumbnail we know we're in for a treat.
For real. Anthony is a badass. My favorite at LMG 👍
i am a simple man, i see Anthony on the thumbnail i click the vid.
I will personally recruit 10 more subscribers & buy a piece of merchandise if they make this a series.
Great idea
MOAR ANTHONY
Agreed!
Alright but it's gotta be a large cpu pillow.
@@jeremywillis4124 Oh hell yeah. I genuinely think the design looks great so that's a win
You know what we need?
LTTSchool
These Turbo Nerd videos are just what I want, pls make more!
Ditto. More please. felt *slightly* less polished than a typical LTT video, but more informative on a less layperson level.
Anthony explained for 4 minutes and it was still 100 times better than my professor who takes hours and hours per week. I WANT MORE OF LINUS VACATIONS!!
Yeah, his explanation of interleaved switching was pretty great.
@@TheMightyZwom yes it was when u have a professor that explains the term pressure by giving the example of farting
@@jyotpatel3149 Hahaha xD
this is like a school project where each of the three presenters did a different part of the motherboard.
if linux wasn't on vacation i would expect him to be the kid who didn't do any of the work and is just reading words on the teleprompter...hey-yo
And they did it really well!
You meant Linus, not Linux...
@@matekovacs2696 why
Now I'm waiting for the Ultra Nerd Edition. This was just a scratch!
Builzoid's channel is there for that... "Actually Hardcore Overclocking"
@@JocPro Wasn't talking about OCing here but the whole architecture of the MB... This video was sth that almost anyone could do by just couple of hours of googling...
@@papagrounds Take a computer architecture course
@@andrewbell9929 Computer architecture courses will not talk much about electrical design and such which is the mainstay of the design effort that goes into motherboards. It takes a wide range of knowledge areas.
@@andrewbell9929 I'm already an ICT Engineer, so no thanks 🤣 Just want to see how well LTT knows their shit.
Such an insanely complex piece of technology when you really think about it, its incredible. 300,000 time PER SECOND. Just wrap your head around how fast these things happen on such a tiny scale. Fascinating, this is one of the areas that my love of Computers in general is built on, just the sheer amount of Engineering these things have. All happening without the user having any idea just how much is really happening, and then you get into how memory works which is even more mind blowing. It's all just so cool to me.
I can’t explain how “turbo nerd edition” video type is now my favorite (potential) series. It’s sooo informative! I need more.
Anthony on thumbnail, turbo nerd edition in the title, "Lienus on vacation" in the opening... This is going to be awesome
Idk why but i love it when Anthony explains stuff
Seeing how Alex has gone from being so soft spoken or shy and awkward and like he didn't even wanna be on camerax to having a buttload of confidence or cracking jokes and stuff and just super excited talking bout the new equipment that he gets to use is pretty Great
The deal he made when Linus gave him all the stuff in his workshop. Probably something like "You must use all this equipment to make great videos and you will be featured in the videos". After that Alex suddenly has no problem doing anything that does not require a laser or router. LMG presenter academy.
Opposite end of the spectrum is probably people like Luke, Riley and Madison.
Dude washed a CPU under a running tap a while ago so I know he balls hard lmao
@@LavenderSunrise that was during linus’ vacation last year 😂
He should go more often 👌
All of that just to say "pretty great"
True, Anthony is awesome.
I doubt there is anything when it comes to PC stuff that he doesn't know.
But overall Linus entire team is a 10/10 there is not a single person in this team that I don't like to see in a video.
"Linus is on vacation, and we're not holding back"
And ofc the next frame after the ad is Anthony with a whiteboard
I LOVE IT
Best video ever
Linus: Gold Xbox controller, 3 videos... Meh.
Without Linus: 2 awesome video concepts that can be turned into a series, that people love, both provide possible content for months if not years, and neither cost $80k
More content like this helps us not only buy the right equipment but for those of us with tight budgets helps us to spend better and understand why we are doing it. Basically more please
Thank you very much.
It's been a quarter century since I built my last PC, and a lot of details have changed dramatically.
I'm going to build my next PC soon-ish.
Videos like this help establish basic understanding.
10:31 Yes Alex I would love more "Turbo Nerd Edition" videos
0:54
"If you apply 12 volts to a CPU, it'll look something like this"
Machine: *he has been summoned*
They're sticking true to the ways of Linus by dropping things I'm proud of them
I really like this video, I like that all of you took turns explaining a specific subtopic.
Videos where Linus is on vacation are always interesting, because they do either weird stuff or make videos you never thought you needed until you watched them. They should have a whole other channel where Linus is always “on vacation”
Agreed 👍
So a channel for LMG without Linus?
@@DerMBen LMG is now The Media Group
-Linus- Tech Tips
We’ve waited for this. It’s going to be a good week.
Please continue Turbo Nerd Edition as a series. This was extremely fun and interesting!
"...we went full nerd." ... worth it. I've been in tech for 30 years and I learned new things today.
Same
Hats off. This is probably one of the best videos LTT has produced so far.
Slight complaint: When using the nanosecond wire, a little shout out to Grace Hopper would've been great.
These rare in-depth LTT videos are the best part of the channel. I wish they were more common
Very true!
Linus has been on vacation for 1 video and Anthony drops the best LTTStore sell in recorded history
Before the newly self-proclaimed Electrical Engineers explode in the comments, as an EE, this is pretty well researched and digestible for an average viewer. Great Job Again Anthony and Alex!
What were you anticipating those "self-proclaimed" EEs would say which you wanted to prevent?
It is great
Actually, it's Alex, who is credited as writer in the titles, though, Anthony was involved for sure...
Especially the inductor part
*Electronic Engineers
I think this is actually the motherboard *basics* that every nerd should know. For turbo nerd edition, I'd expect more advanced stuff. Very good video, though!
Turbo nerd edition would easily become my favorite videos to watch on your channel.
"Linus is on vacation, and we're not holding back"
I'm sure the inventory clerk is glad for the break from replacing all the hardware that gets destroyed by Linus dropping it
Then realizes all the staff starts talking stuff home when he isn't around
@@KingsNJenssons taking*
And then Anthony comes around and starts dropping hard drives :D
Until the next Intel upgrade to find LTT hardware 😂
That's called "job security" in the bizz.
More Turbo Nerd videos equals more better. More Turbo Nerd hosted by Anthony equals most betterest
Yes to more Turbo Nerd videos -- this video is probably one of the best things I've seen in LTT in years.
As linus is on vacation, I think everyone would agree that we want a linux with Anthony series..
Make an LTT distro. The community will update it.
LTT distro where random processes are dropped
YES YES YES
This
We all know what the default background will be.
Kudos for crediting Buildzoid, he's in a level of his own regarding the dissection of motherboards and its VRMs and created his own hardcore tech niche on TH-cam.
The 'zoid is the man
Fr tho, he does not get enough recognition
They credited him but they got the 8+2 thing wrong. It's 8 for CPU and 2 for SOC/IO. RAM has its own power delivery in the upper right area next to the slots.
@@dudebroguymate Yup! I hope they will someday fix that mistake
If this is the kind of quality content we get when Linus is on vacation please send him to travel the world.
Bruhhhh😂
Honestly a motherboard is exactly like your mother. Full of slots that need filled, and routinely discarded when a new model comes into focus.
I really like 'Turbo Nerd" you should do more of them
Reminds me of the older LTT days.
Him: "You might be thinking more phases equals more better."
Me: God damnit, he's a mind reader.
What can't Anthony do?
I literally thought that as soon as he said it
@@caffeineTX hug me, because I am far :(
This literally is what the channel used to be about. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE MORE OF THIS.
Eh, this is more engineering. Old LTT used to be more about strapping together ghetto bits of hardware
@@Idiomatick well fair, I was thinking more of the old TQ episodes.
No, it used to be about Linus unboxing a motherboard on a bench in the park. And you couldn't hear him telling you about all its features because of the wind. THAT's what it used to be about.
Loved this video. Please make more like this. It would be great to go through all the tech on the motherboard from USB to SLI to Audio and beyond. Not to mention expanding into video cards and other peripherals too.
You're teaching me more about computers than my computer science course.
"Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes"
Actually I think that computer science courses focus more on the software side of things. If you want to learn more of this I beleive an electronics course is what you're looking for.
Imo it's misleading to call it CS, computer science. In german we call it informatik, which is much closer to what this is actually about: information science, which goes deeper into how information can be handled and manipulated. For hardware, EE knowledge is required much more
@@nootics guten abend
I followed an electronics degree course and had a 2 year "electronics and computers" minicourse prior to that over the same field. It does teach you how general circuits work and all but it's just basic level stuff (in regards to how hardware works that is; And since it's academic you'll be looking at low level circuits maybe mixed with some ampops at best... all else is going to be big stuff like transformers, power lines, etc). There is no course, at least in the coutry I live in, that is directed towards JUST computer hardware and how a computer works on a mechanical level (that's all I wanted and no matter how hard I looked there was none).
These courses focus a lot on software and how there's 1's and 0's and here's logic gates and here's addresses, here's how C/C++/Python interacts with RAM to make/edit a program or file but they dedicate nothing going into how a computer actually works with all those things mashed together, how components comunicate with eachother, how CPU receives, processes and sends information, what signals it sends/receives; Hell they don't even tell you how a motherboard works but for programming expect you to know how RAM does, somehow.
Then again, this is a recurring meme with university students from all over the world within various different courses... we are taught basics (sometimes not even that) and general info and then are expected to find out the rest by ourselves. I don't think there's even a master's (degree) for this subject. A lot of people that I've ever talked to that knew more intricate things about computers were self-taught... just goes to show.
"Linus is on vacation, so we're going to give you the content you actually subscribed for" is what it seemed like he was trying to say
He doesn’t really get to choose what videos are made, as you can see when he is given instructions on exactly what to use in builds, and exactly what he is allowed to say, and even given scripts.
God has blessed us with two Anthony videos in a row

The role of the motherboard is underappreciated. It manages all of your computer's hardware with little thanks.
mother(board)'s day
as someone who knows far too much about this stuff than I have any right too, I was waiting to see how well you guys did, and you didn't disappoint. I was actually a tad giddy when you mentioned the older config of north and south bridge. I have fond memories of being way too concerned with which chips were used for the bridges on my early builds, despite the fact that they probably didn't do as much for me as I thought they did. I am a tad sad on that point that you didn't point out that the reason for the beefy VRM heatsinks is because PC builders got accustomed to seeing huge heat sinks on boards with killer chipsets, because the north bridge back when it was a thing actually needed it to handle the memory speeds and PCI/PCIe. Not to mention that integrated graphics used to be on the motherboard, not the processor. I still have a socket AM2+ board that has an Nvidia nForce 630a (geforce 7025) graphics chip. Anyway, PC builders got used to seeing heatsinks on high end motherboards, and now if you throw a bare board at us, we assume its low end. love the video, do more like it!
This is great, and i'd love a continued series where componentry is discussed with white boards and such. Explaining things like "memory speed" and why the numbers look like they do are great for us who want to know the WHY, not just the HOW.
So Linus is on vacation and they gave us such quality content? I think the staffs should have their own channel.
Linus is the pewdiepie of tech channels.
Most popular due to targeted "oh my god" content with clickbait face thumbnails but actual little meaningful information. But entertains kids well enough.
No, he wants to grow his business. That false impression was fostered in order to establish the new media personalities he himself hired. He is brilliant in his own right, but chooses to give his personality a more accessible mass market approach. He’s also a great boss and force for good in tech.
@@tomstech4390 I mean yeah , I think thats why he dose it. He knows not everybody is so into tech and want to explain to the people who don't know.
"should we tell him?"
"no i dont think we will"
@@saphricpcgaming5182 I'm curious, what gives you that impression? Because I honestly don't see it
I really like this concept, it's nerdy and in-depth without being too technical. Would like to see more of this format!
I'm halfway through this video and have to stop to ask, where have these videos been all my life? This content is top tier as far as I'm concerned. I've seen over 100 of LTT's videos and this is definitely up there as one of the most useful.
Normally I have to watch Actually Hardcore Overclocking's videos for an hour or two just to gain some real knowledge from TH-cam.
EDIT: Oh wow, you guys actually referenced Buildzoid in your video.
I just love listening to his rants, he's the hero we need to keep things down to earth.
Any OGs still remember the first time Anthony appeared and was such a shy need in front of the camera? That's where the Dynasty of the Anthony started and it shall last forever
After having seen I think he’s so likable because he’s relatable. He represents how 90% of LTT subscribers would be in front of the lights and a camera. Never change Big A
LTT produces videos way in advance, and they air on floatplane 1 week before youtube. By the time we are watching this video his vacation is already over
@@AniviaS uh yea but that's not what I ment
@@timelesstorque9526 Exactly. Anthony is relatable and has a great character that is both very relatable. Should Linus ever quit he should make Anthony in charge
I think his first appearance was when he broke the new 5000 dollar iMac :D
I thought I wouldn't learn anything new. Turbo nerd proved me wrong. Please continue this amazing edition
last time you said "linus is on vacation" you ended up hooking a cpu to a kitchen faucet, so I'm really in.
Oh what!? I must have missed that one, anyone have a link?
