don't care. are there any reviews that aren't just the same shit they usually shovel? everyone is running their normal selection of games and no one is testing games that benefitted from the x3d cache? where's that racing game? where's factorio? fucking lazy tech reviewers.

Well it is really all has now after he burned bridges with all the other guys.
Nobody will do things with him other than Wendall.
And it is only a matter of time till he snakes him for some dumb little issue about how he said something wrong in a video or had a small error on a chart that he raises a stink over. MUH CONSUMA RITES he says while he debates how useful Kelvin vs Farenhight to a consumer. Not knowing that the average person does not know what a Kelvin is or uses it to gauge temperature of computer parts.

>he only burned bridges with
Word in the background is that none of the others want to do shit with him now, not just for snaking Linus for what are small errors and a mishandled copper block.
But because he was actively looking for dirt to make drama videos on the others Look how he acted like a fag so much that Jayztwocents had to come out and make a damage control vid when he went full """""activist"""" mode and told his audience to fuck off about them wanting him to put away the TDS sperging and review the fucking airflow case, so they all froze him out of doing anything with him.

>>108652350
He has rent and staff to pay and the consumer hardware market is fucking dead. You can't survive as a channel doing reviews of the 5 new products that arrive every year, which nobody can afford now anyway. Ragebait videos are a 100% guaranteed way to get paid. Blame the audience.

It's just the natural step as a citizen if you want to keep your rights against corrupt governments and corporations.

>>108652722
So can you tell me how providing Kelvin measurements instead of the more common 0F readings helps the consumer?
His whole issue was that Cooler makers did not go from 0K on charts.

Just tell me the temp readings in normal brain measurements instead of pedantic retard speek.

>>
>>108653098
Yeah that's pretty low but it doesn't make what he does any less right overall.
I can easily forgive him for this when he's doing what anyone should do in today's world : start fucking with companies
These companies would literally turn you into onions green if it could bring them a miniscule profit
It's an arm wrestling match between consumers and companies and consumers who start stucking up to companies (no matter the reason) at doing themselves a disservice and feeding their predator.
We should act toward companies the same way they're acting toward consumers : pragmatically, amorally and ruthlessly
All big corporations execs deserve to die btw

Generally i agree.
But why did Steve only seem to care now?
AMD and Nvidia and all the rest of Big Tech have been donating to PACs for years. Obama has been cut massive checks by all of them. Yet he never raised a stink 15 years ago about it all. It seems like Steve only now has a problem with (D)onations now his team is out of power.
>>
>>108653385
The timing of this is more about him getting big with the fucking documentaries about corporations. Once he saw success a few times and got praised like he was doing the whole world a favor he decided to try to hit and poke bigger targets. But there's no doubt he's more of a demorat guy.
Also like other people here mentioned, yeah no shit he's getting blacklisted. That is by all means normal. He pokes a bear and expects a blowjob back, I don't know how his mind works on that one. Doesn't matter how right he is, they're not gonna fucking write him a check and apologize, he's a fucking journo.
>>
>>108653385
it's pretty simple, there's no new hardware coming out and when there was (or when there is in the future), it was/is gonna be too expensive. so he started asking questions about why and things got political. the reason he keeps making more political content is because there's no fucking new hardware

>I have to politically sperg out in an uniformed way about my team getting BTFO in 2024 because i ran out of video ideas.
Did you know Der8our buys old ass CPU coolers from 2008 and tests them and reviews them, and does retrospective content.
No hardware does not mean there is no new idea's.
Steve is becoming a lolcow just like Linus really. Nobody cares about his political takes. Just put the airflow case reviews in the bag.
>>
>>
>>108653479
No kidding, I needed to look for decent case reviews many years and he was the primary source for something decent. Year ago I needed a new one and what could I find? All I have is a yearly "best cases" video. Everything else is just blackpilling bullshit. You're getting fucked by AI, screwed by Nvidia, getting your throat fucked by AMD, look at this stupid fucking scam, disaster disaster disaster. Buy my blacklisted by the media or corpo t-shirts. It's like those drama channels that exist only to talk about pedo/rape accusations on famous ecelebs.
>>
>>108653536
the real danger is that nvidia may start dropping 3060 support etc, because corporations tend to follow suit. It's like collusion, except where actions are "cards up" offers. Since everyone knows that's the game, then the possible next moves are also obvious eg subscription drivers.

It really does look like this is a problem of Steve's own making if he can't find tech to cover. Of course companies are going to start blacklisting you for coming at them with political ragebait when they're doing the same shit they've done for decades but this time it's orange.
And it's not like these other channels are never critical of AMD/Nvidia/Intel either. They just focus on criticizing the actual product rather than stooping down to politics.
>>
>>108653479
Frankly its absurd to see him spend an autistic amount of time planning,building and certifying all the fan noise/airflow testing equipment only to become a talking head like coffeezillla or hank green. All that time, money and effort just to use it a few times a year with a case they like. There are channels that don't have that kind of gear making ridiculous 3D printed designs for PC cases or RC/drone props and they pull in far more views than this activist slop (which is already bizarre in an environment where everything is political and trust in corpos is an all time low).
>>
>>
>>108653630
I watch a lot of the tech content, myself.
It is only Steve that is acting this way.
So what if there is only 3 CPU launches this year.
Jayztwocents has just put out a vid on Bios settings.
>>108653656
I seem to remember him buying that big airflow testing machine, with subscriber and shop money and saying they need 6 months to get trained on how to use it. Unboxed it on video.
They never mentioned it again.
Linus got slayed for the same thing.

The funny part is that he drops this video on the day of the 9950X3D2 embargo lifting.

Where've you been AMD has been Nvidia minus $50 for a long time now. They haven't been watching out for the little guy even though they owe everything to that little guy.

If he really wants to take a stand against these "corrupt" companies, he would stop reviewing and giving attention to Nvidia and AMD products starting today. No 9950x3D2 review, no RTX 6000 review, nothing. Stand by your principles.

Everyone else seems to have samples and they all reached the same conclusion, this is not worth the money over 9950x. The didn't need to badger someone over Lisa Su's banquet with Trump either. And coming up next, Steve goes over the history of Tim Cook and his frequent dinners with Epstein.

Yet he will constantly insist that he has to turn the main channel into a political commentary shitfest that he promised to keep to GNCA only because of the fact that Nvidia, Intel and AMD make gayming hardware, and even though he declared they have abandoned gaymers he still insists this is the reason to politisperg all the time.

Case reviews. Steve promised reviewing the FLP02 months ago. He invested millions in his semi-anechoic chambers and fan testers. He refuses to test the case he already has. Talks down viewers complaining he doesn't do so with this exact rhetoric. Basically telling his old audience to go fuck themselves because he caters to the reactionary masses now.
Steve has dried out the patience of his long-time viewers in the recent months, including myself. The most insulting thing is that he still hasn't rebranded his channel to be committed fully to political activism, since this is clearly what he has done as he saw it brings in more money than tech reviews.
Steve lied about political topics being delegated to GNCA. GNCA is left dormant while the main channel got flooded with political videos.
Steve promised the review of the FLP02. He is yet to fulfill that promise, and he talks down viewers reminding him of what his job is meant to be.
Steve also noped the fuck out of that Honey class action lawsuit and swept it under the rug after his bombastic claims of fighting for your rights.
Steve Burke proved that all journalists are scum, and sooner or later, they will turn around to spit on you if it benefits them financially.
So Thanks Steve, it was great watching your reviews all these years, but at this point I don't care if you come crawling back to appeasing your old viewers once the short term goldmine of ragebait clicks runs out and you'll have to do your job again.

2020-2024 was god awful in the US specifically because of Democrat policies. If you lived in a blue state you had a significantly worse time. Trying to act as if there is no difference in the teams is low IQ 'can't handle nuance' behavior, and don't get me wrong I am plenty upset at Republicans for a number of reasons but I'd rather deal with them then Democrats who are the snakiest politicians alive. The hemp ban and how politicians handled Israel/Palestine is a great example of it. Also the OS age verification out of nowhere by California man.

Being politically unaware is strictly for isolationist monocultures where you can be sure that the people at the top share philia with you because you are not so different from them.
We live in multicultural globalist shithole world where all our different factions are vying for supremacy and the one that wins out will eventually wipe all other faction out. You vote strictly with your race and religion because that's all what everybody else is ever going to do.

While at the same time the chinese government banned nvidia chips.

While at the same time Bloomberg was only jealous about their own anti-China documentary doing less good than his?
Steve throws weird accusations around and is wrong most of the time. Like here as well: >>108656651
And you see the simps not getting that: >>108657224
It doesn't matter whether or not some rare dude got a free gift, the fact that most of the reviewers didn't get gifts is enough evidence to prove Steves theory, that AMD would be mad at him for doing political rants, wrong.

Fuck around and find out. You either comply with the money power or legal authority or pay the consequences. What's there to not understand?
In this case, he will literally pay the consequence. At this rate all these YouTube amateurs will get blacklisted by every company and corporation worth mentioning out there and go bankrupt since they won't be able to review anything. Notice how they don't do reviews as much as they used to? Because they are a toxic brand. No company wants to work with controversial, vulgar, and confrontational people who look like this.
He should have remembered his place and toned down the rhetoric instead of feeling empowered to say whatever he wants under the impression he is in a safe hugbox when it's clear his smiles are increasingly nervous.

Not gonna lie, I was expecting much more skepticism from you guys. This was so clearly AMD just wanting to keep this launch tempered and sending only a few samples out because it wasn’t a remarkable launch and they knew it. But GN immediately throws a decade of goodwill with AMD under the bus and rams the gas on it to pretend he’s le renegade investigative “journalist” and he’s just another le gamer being heckin oppressed.
>>

Linus is a faggot but yeah it seems like this was an overreaction by Steve, and just AMD mangling yet another launch with poor decisions.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

You can sell /g/ seal clubbing oil polluting trash as long as you frame it as row row fite da power bullshit.
The industry's figured this out, that you can sell Iphones to communists as long as you frame it as being a "rebel". So /g falling hook line and sinker for for AHHH I AM UNDER ATTACK BY DA CORPOS is not surprising.

>yea I’m not entitled to a sample, but I’m gonna assume everyone at AMD watches my first video about them, so let me connect some dots that don’t exist and make a schizo meltdown seething at them over my own speculation.
If I was an exec at AMD and caught wind of this guy, I would actually blacklist this retard because he’s clearly a loose cannon. Though not in a dangerous finding the truth kind of way, more of a schizo tinfoil hat let me assume the worst in you kind of way.

not really no, except for when he gets paid to do them by the tech firms, which his parent company manages, which is an invest firm who bought them up, just like fern and all those other ones.

I think it’s worse that he acknowledges it and still proceeds to absolutely rail AMD over something that almost certainly is in his head. You know that old saying don’t attribute to malice what you can attribute to incompetence?

>and just AMD mangling yet another launch with poor decisions
Why would it be a poor decision to not give free stuff to ecelebs?
It is exposing Steve, it is impossible for his simps to justify this sperg-out, he loses credibility. Which is a win for AMD in my book. And the only thing they had to do was to... not send them free stuff.

GamersNexus is controlled opposition that directs your outrage into nothingness and makes it harmless.
You can pat yourself on the back and pretend that you are fighting muh corpors, because you bought a solder mat, while in reality you are a tool being played with.
None of the AI companies make any profits whatsoever, they get trillions on government gibs, and you reddit faggots believe that corpos behave evil because of fucking profit.

>>
>>108661448
They do care about profits thoughbeit, especially the publically traded ones. Colluding with the government is just an easy ticket to easy money. Uncle Sam has always been a prized customer for companies because of how lucrative working with them is.
>>

>>
>>108661487

If you include government gibs, corruption money and bribes as profits, sure.
The point is that whatever the consumer does is completely irrelevant. We are talking about the irrational belief, that those corpos would care about sales.

It's like $100 worth of silicon and by hanging onto that silicon they've earned a lot of bad will, whether it's deserved or not, and if even a single person second-guesses buying AMD as a result, they will have lost money.

AMD was always like that, even back then they stopped sending GPU samples to Techpowerup because they showed in benchmarks that their cards sucked. They had a front page news about having to buy their own samples from the store.
Then again it's not really a surprise given that they were also hardcore shilling Nvidia. When a new Geforce cards came out, they used to list *every* single press release so you had like 30 pieces of "company X releases Geforce Y" news following each other.

I find him hard to take seiously when he sells grap like white (glass?!) paneled PC cases for retard gsymers to build retarded ultra ineffecient and failure prone 800-1200 watt space heaters covered in spastic led lights down to the RAM modules so they call tell me hoe much they can tell the difference between 100FPS and 120FPS on a gay stupidly overspecified monitor. Exactky the same kinnd of cuntdom that was selling retarded spoilt kids water cooled overclocked gloop via youtube ten years ago and has been the bane of personal computing and system builders ever since. His investigative reporting is quite good I'll give him that but as an actual former insider I'll tell you now that 50% of everything related to computing cosses over into defence and is discussed under 7 year NDA at conference presentations he is not invited to and never will be YEARS in advance of production. Intel AMD the OEMs, Microsoft NVIDIA, Amazon, Google, Meta, IBM. Cisco, HP and Dell the the companies that gave you the fuckiing personal computer, PnP, ISA, PCI, DDR, DIMMs, USB, PCMCIA, Bluetooth, (you fucking name it) WANT YOU ON CLOUD PORTAL SUBSCRIPTION AND DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT TARDS WITH SPACE HEATER LED BOXES OR PCs anymore aside from overcharging them for garbage until they fuck right off.. It really is that simple. Neither do real LLMs run on space heater led boxes or fucking gayming GPUs PCIe cards. They want you playing CLOUD SUBSCIPTION GAMES AS STREAMED DATA

Oh and by the way bayesian mathematics for video processing does not originate in GAYMING it originates in digital video broadcasting from ulta retarded shit like turning those bluw placeholders at public events like massive sportball matches and crap like nascar and F1 into placeolders for realtime placement of localised advertising digitally into those real world bluescreen and digitally stabalising crap like US niggerball shots of the precious ball as it is kicket by a foot or hit by something.wirlded by s smootbrained retard who gets paid a fortune to set retarded sportballs in motion.Something also VERY useful for targetting systems you might deduce. NOT FUCKING CRYSIS For a LONG time gaming has been a vastly curated advancement of groomking kids with toy soldiers, low power air rifles, the scouts, war comics to for a long time, aircraft obessed flightstick consumers, nerf and airsoft then FPS drone operator zero relucance with human shaped victims. Open your eyes and you shall see. Every societally destructive element picked up by work such as on killing by grossman was DELIBERATELY inserted into 'enteratinment' for teenage boys for almost 25 years based on expected future desirable skills for killing which shifted from infantry to pilots to infantry to drones. Right down to top down strategy games, FPS and combat flight simulators..You are not anarcho technologist gaymers you are the fucking product.
>no no it can't be so
Fun fact the first military wireless remote conntrolled drone witha video feed was used IN WORLD WAR TWO

GNSteve really needs to drop his hero/victimhood obsession. He's every bit the narcissist that Linus tech tips is. Not everything is about you. It's a halo product that offers very little and AMD chose to sample a few outlets as is their choice. You could have waited and bought at release or from a viewer but decided to use your youtube contacts to go and get one for free anyway.
If this matters so much to you take a stand and refuse to cover any of the products from AMD and Nvidia until the changes you want are implemented. These techtubers are all talk.
>>
Nvidia does this all the time lmao nobody got any 5060 or whatever

this is the funniest part about it all, they explicitly said they did not want it back in their emails and said LTT can do whatever they fuck they want with it and completely omitted these e-mails when GN contacted them for his hitpiece where he made it seem that they auctioned it off on purpose when that was a miscommunication (and one that LTT was very willing to pay good money to fix btw)

This retard has become so full of himself it's embarrassing. It's gotten so bad I'd rather watch a Linus Shill Tips video now.
The truth is though, even before he got his massive persecution complex, his videos were only good for falling asleep to. Now he's not even good for that as he is just insufferable.
Hey Steve, go cut your mullet, tech faggot.
>>
>>108662851
>>making shit up while parroting the fat retard who whined about not owning a house while owning multiple expensive cars, then instantly dumped thousands on filming gear and bought a barn
while being paid way above market rate and not once bringing this up and his other grievances up to anyone until he was visibly malding
that he got upset over getting a friendly send-off with the other people that left just shows how full he was about himself, probably angry that Linus found a better son-replacement with the other retard that's nearly as old as Linus himself
>>
>>108663172
The one merit his videos had was the hardware tests. But oh no, he ditched doing those altogether because he prefers to cry how no one will be able to buy hardware now so why bother reviewing, and also focusing on gaming as the be-all-end-all of hardware consumers.
He genuinely lost his mind and became unbearable to watch, and I've been following him since the days of the house studio. A shame, really. I'm yet to see that FLP02 review he promised which is something I was looking forward to, to know if that case has decent airflow despite it's gimmick. But I don't think I'll ever see it now that Steve has fully rebranded his company into doing documentaries and sperging about politics. Again, despite promising GNCA would be for that type of content, only for it to remain unused.
I will repeat this GNCA point ad nauseam because fuck you Steve, you kept propping yourself up as a virtuous honest journalist, and yet you've proven to be as spineless as two-faced as every other journalist ever.
>>

I'll preface this by saying that Linus is also a retard, there's no reason why he needed to blow up his staff to 300+ members and shit like a fucking badminton center and a private jet are purely vanity projects. That said,
LTT
>still covering new tech (new shit is coming out every week)

>almost never offers solutions or alternatives aside from a throwaway line at the end of a 30+ minute rant video
>intensely political in the past year despite barely touching it 2020-2024
It sucks because GN CAN be excellent, their data has been good in the past and they have plenty of industrial equipment. But they're burning so much good will on all sides by launching into political bullshit. No matter your opinion on the Current Event™, remember that "Republicans buy sneakers, too". Just cover tech and do what you're good at without spamming me about how bad the orange man is for the 12th time in a single video.
>>
>>108652166
LTT didn't get a sample yet he would shill anything, and many others so the fat jew lied in his video about being blacklisted. Did AMD also blacklist LTT, the biggest tech shill channel by that logic?

no joke this guy is going to become a pariah, if not already.
businesses are not friends but they generally respect eachother, they know everyone has skeletons in their closet, they know that its never how it should be, nobody is playing by the rules 100% of the time, because running a real show requires navigating an unpredictable and fickle world.
then this guys shows up with his 'honest media'. its like, ok, fine. and then he starts burning literally everyone around him.
i expect to see more businesses just straight up ghosting him. dude is a proven liability, and does nothing to contribute to anything other than inciting worthless gossip and making a big mess for the PR team to be burdened with cleaning up.

If anyone was real, this is the natural outcome for any reviewer.
People don't realize it but PC reviews have been completely lopsided in the manufacturer's favor since forever. If you don't see it because it's been ingrained culture in the PC space

>People don't realize it but PC reviews have been completely lopsided in the manufacturer's favor since forever. If you don't see it because it's been ingrained culture in the PC space
disagree, more likely that the kind of stuff that exists to be reviewed today, is actually pretty good now.
its not the 90s anymore, where startups were making things that sometimes turned out to be garbage. we know what users want now, and the shakeout of the last 30 years has pretty much left us with stuff that is, worst case, just good enough.
for example, you don't get 'duds' anymore in the 3d graphics accelerator space, because its not the wild west anymore: the field has matured, and every player will have something that has baseline value proposition. its noteable that for nvidia, the centerpiece of arguing is not what shadermodel it has or anyhting like that: its the value proposition *relative to other nvidia cards*.

If you want honest reviews, you should ignore every single reviewer who takes free samples.
It is the exact opposite of what GN claims it should be! None of them should get any fee gibs.
Golden samples are a thing!
And whether you want to accept it or not, they are human afterall and they WILL be more favorable towards companies that give them more three stuff. Even if only subconciously.
The only reason why idiots accept the common practice of """revieweres""" """reviewing"""" shit they got gifted for free, is because they have a parasocial relationship to them and worship them like gods.
Of course your god Steve will be above it all and not have his opinion influenved by whether or not he got stuff for free... EXACT HE LITERALLY FUCKING TELLS YOU THAT THIS IS THE CASE AND MAKES MULTIPLE VIDEOS COMPLAINING ABOUT NOT GETTING FREE SHIT.
FUCK OFF YOU FUCKING NIGGERS.
>but but if he wouldn't get free gifts before their release, he wouldn't be able to have a review out on release day
IF YOU BUY SOMETHING ON RELEASE DAY, YOU CAN NEVER EXPECT TO HAVE ANY HONEST REVIEWS AVAILABLE,
>but but if his review goes out leter, he gets less money, because people already watched reviews from others
SO YOUR ECELEB IS ALLOWED TO GRIFT FOR MONEY AND HIM EARNING MONEY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HONESTY? FUCK OFF!
ALL ECELEB SIMPS NEED TO GET THE ROPE
