You know, this is some shit that I expect when dealing with some shady asshole on ebay, but LMG?

Bro… Are you ok?

I always wondered if Linus was actually a slimy POS, but this Billet Labs situation has cemented it for me. If you haven’t watched the Gamers Nexus followup video, definitely watch it.

    You are writing words and with them I assume you are literate and can read context clues. This is the 2nd fucking time (that has been verbalized) that someone apparently can’t read thoroughly and come off with the impression of “HuR DuR ThEy PuT It On WrOnG GpU, It WoRkS On WhAt It Is InTeNdEd FoR”, no fucking shit. I made a comment about this literally 12 hours ago, its right below the one you commented on.

    To reiterate the point. Most consumers don’t give a shit about boutique water cooling solutions. There is a subset of people who think are 100% willing to put outrageous amounts of money for this crap that is only improving their temps by 3-5 degrees. If LINUS AND HIS TEAM tested the product properly a fraction of the goodwill they have right now wouldn’t exist. They are currently stars in their own David and Goliath story which likely translated in sales either via the monoblock preorders they have up or their copper fittings they are selling. Billet Labs have awesome craftsmanship and even in the “shit” video about them does compliment them on that regard.

      if it worked as intended we wouldn’t be talking about…

      This is what I was referring to. I can read thoroughly, and I did so in that case, but the rest of your comment is entirely irrelevant.
