Yeah, I’m familiar with the lore. If you’re curious about how the video got made, why don’t you watch the Linus Tech Tips video explaining exactly that?

So how could you possibly trust a tech publication whos higher ups clearly have no problem releasing a how to build a pc guide that would literally destroy most of your components if you followed it?

It brings all their articles/opinions into a bad light...and frankly its laughable that they didnt address it.

I did watch it, I also watched non-shill channels reacting to it...all channels I trust for tech news and builds, and they were laughing at how idiotically confident the video was in its poor advice, and instruction.

You must work for them if you refer to their video as "lore"

And please bear in mind, im talking about the publication releasing the video, insisting it be filmed the way it was and finding no problems with the finished product.

It says nothing to the person building it, and how they couldn't stand up for themselves and ended up needing to damage control their reputation because of it (the Linus vid still doesn't address some glaring pieces of advice too)

Im talking about just The Verge. Stefan was just a wet towel at the time, when he should've been a rock.
