Make an video on those who in business care about gamers.
I would rather take Nvidia's poison than the stinky shit that their competition offers, thank yoj very much.
remember, you will be put up for a subscription if u buy from manscaped, check out reviews before you buy this crap.
@lol p0
You should say Nvidia and Miners do not care about gamers nor the environment. These crypto goons proclaim their beloved currency as the path forward when all its achieved so far is a disruption of an entire industry that was never built by them. These lazy do nothing miners continue racking up the demand on electrical grids which are still mostly powered through fossil fuels they don't make new jobs on any meaningful scale so its not feeding families more than it is filling a greedy miners e-wallet. Scalpers are a problem for sure but if the demand wasn't already taxed enough as is Miners sure as fuck play a big role in perpetuating the problem which only works to serve scalpers. Nvidia, AMD, Miners, & Scalpers are the winners here, while the consumer and environment is fucked. Linus stop simping for crypto miner bullshit while placing ALL the burden on gamers to act in environmentally friendly.
Think about all them chips wasted on smartphones that come out every year. No bigger e-waste than smartphones.
War gaming and nvidia would make great friends
My god.. even you? Even you are about the balls being shaved? How about the Shadow Legends? The game i will never play because of the predatory ad campaign. It was such a great video.. :|
techquickie- wtf is a hash rate
I don't see how crypto isn't a bubble, there's SO MUCH crypto but so little you can buy with it.
Every time they tell you it's for your benefit, be extra careful.
You're ignoring too many things. First. There's no indication that this crypto boom will end any time soon. In fact, with Elon Musk's recent 1.5 billion dollar purchase its likely to continue rising. Second, companies are capable of caring about both profit AND their customers. After all, the current level of quality that Nvidia is pushing with their 30 series GPUs is only possible BECAUSE of profit. Not to mention that they're a fraction of the MSRP as their last generation cards. This benefits both the consumer and the company. As it should. I've heard hundreds of consumers and reviewers saying that gamers would benefit from companies creating GPUs specifically for mining so that miners will stop taking the gaming cards from actual gamers but when one of of does this you accuse of them of being money hungry? I think you're missing the mark here.
Good for you for speaking out against a big corp, for an established channel such as yourself (that actually has something to lose compared to some 55 sub channel) to be willing to rock the boat by telling the truth is refreshing.
How to avoid driver lock on gaming GPU for mining: disable driver update :/
WTH are these prices......
defasts.info/title/video/YrCMhbu0kJW9zZY.html
I upgraded from my RTX 2070 Super to an XBOX Series X
We need the Government forces to take control of all those giant tech companies. They now play a huge role in our lives. Crypto mining must be prohibited by law and imprisonment. It is harmful for the environment and feels like scam
Forget about "care". Nvidia is an unreliable supplier of graphics cards to the market, month after month of "unavailable" from them and their partner companies. At least they are predicable, for most of us you can not buy one that is untainted by integrators or the secondary market. I consider their brand to be damaged, Nvidia not inside.
yeah I started buying those 3060's and i bought only half of required 13. I hate nvidia for that sh-t they made with their gpu's. I hardly overclocked last 6 unlocked 3060's and let them work until they dies. Next step for me I think will be buying motherboard with 2 amd epyc cpu's and some non expensive amd gpu and mine on cpu's. I thint that will be more stable and more profitable, and actually cpu's might be overclocked and undervolted little bit for more profits.
Screw Nvidia. I went full AMD for my new build
I blame capitalism.
Uhmm AMD maybe released a mining cards soon with RDNA and 7nm process not like Nvidia with Turing at 12nm... AMD = less RX6000 production because utilises the same node for mining cards... When are you make a critical vídeo against AMD ??
4 years with my 970...
We need the US "government" to enforce some laws that break up large companies, which would force more competition instead of bullshit like this. (I think)
So both Linus's are dunking on Nvidia now. The other being Linux Torvalds. Glad to see it though.
Nvidia is just like EVERY other American corporation and yet the powers that be are still locked in their fog of ignorance of why at least half of the American people falsely think socialism is a better option even though both end in misery and destruction, the latter just gets you there faster.
I really believed that what nvidia did was a good thing. You changed my mind completely.
AMD YES
Team red is worth more My opinion after i saw this video... D:
Sorry linus, everyone's here for the money. That includes you as well. And shoddy reporting work. Are you trying to build negative opinion about an organisation that's honestly making money?
Beruntung di kompleks bang linus ga ada kang bakso keliling...
Wow
GG Linus
you dont care about gamers bro, all these shamless sponsers, how much money is enough? your making it off the gamers back. even logan paul has the decency to link to merch just once. wtf is going on with you Linus. you are losing touch
F YOU NVIDIA! SCUMBAGS!
They cut production cost, actually appeal to miners with "mining specific" product and deny reuse market by those. Altogether increasing profits sky high and getting good boy sticker along the way. That's all the video.
Back in the day, only the well-to-do had computers. Roberta Williams once said that having a computer meant being special, and when everyone had one, it wasn't special anymore. The "elite" do not want to share the world with the "poors." They believe that our planet is their personal resort, and that the "poors" are mucking it up. ANYONE with a logical, mind and a triple digit IQ would realize that they are trying to depopulate the earth with the "vaccine" and using the scamdemic as a pretext. There is a "silicon shortage," because the "elite" need it for their robotics and quantum computer A.I. that will be replacing the BILLIONS of "poors." They don't want to waste it on gamers who are scheduled for death. Most will read this post and laugh and/or become angry with me, but will know, deep down, that I am speaking the truth.
I have Nvidia GT 1030 and sold it to make money and spend 10 month to collect money to buy RTX 2060 super, than i got the money....... and when i try to buy, stock are gone the perice are sky rocketing out of my budged .... i cant wait to play games and decided to buy GT1030 again ...
1080 ti 100$ good times
Crypto is unlikely to go down enough over the next few years to make a dent in mining farm attempts to grab all high end video cards known to humanity. the economic forecasts for world currencies and political games says that crypto is starting to look like a safe bet and at the same time, every country known to humanity, including the top ten economic power houses, is looking to introduce their own crypto currency. As is every big corporation. All this can do is drive the current already crazy demand for video cards for crypto mining, through the roof. AMD and NVidea are unlikely to spool up another factory for fear of crypto dropping and thus the market drying up for them. The shortage in cards or total lack of them is likely to last for the full year and go into 2022 before 'the big two' bother to address it seriously, as a thing that they can firmly and safely step out into, as in - making up the extra build capacity. If they do..... the miners will take over that supply too....always willing to pay more than the gamers and to buy in bulk and use dirty (any) tactics to get it all. In the meantime, gaming will die and the chain stores that still exist to serve this small gamer and pc build market will all begin to seriously die off. Eg, 'Canada computers' a 40 store chain in Canada, has no supply of video cards, and probably won't for all of 2021 and on into 2022. A PC build store, devoid of video cards. This is not going to end well.
When Nvidia made clear their hatred of Linux as a platform and their dedication to slowing it down, it was obvious that their appreciation for consumers was also nonexistent
*now this is weirdchamp*
Well, I was already looking for AMD, like the guy was looking to the another girl.
When did asmongold start working for Linus tech?
ok but i want a gpu, what now? do we just wait? what if we manage to use the crypto ones for gaming?
Why do people think gamers want run into the ground crappy used old tier mining cards?
With a start like that for a momen I thought they were designing their cards with dedicated crypto mining unit that is constantly on and profits go to Nvidia.
Seriously Linus, did you at any point think companies care about you? The only reason any company exists is to make money. Not just NVIDIA, all companies.
GO stick em Linus!
Fu..off Nvidia and AMD too.
and u pretend to care about us but u really just want the views and sponsors
lol he starts by saying Nvidia only cares about money, then goes straight to advertisements to make him money....
and then "hey guy's it's time to go and buy the new 3060!!" Really, linus?
I was thinking of just going to AMD for a new GPU but I hear so many mixed things.
I still have hope that nvidia will release new drivers and a newer version of dlss to give us 4k ultra settings at 120hz on the 20 series
*Nvidia treat their customers like Disney treats their Star Wars fans....with contempt !*
im getting 62.5mh/z with +1500 mem -500 core 55% power 120w draw on my rtx 3060 ti
SJC: social justice computerer. Gouge the privileged gamers, who represent an archaic unfair system , to get revenge for the Crypto minority
Havent bought nVIDIA in over 10 years.
9:20 no major company does this. Its just a PR stunt for eco hippies
As a note, on the e-waste issues, there are now biodegradable, biologically sourced plastics that are quite good. I wish they'd start making zip-ties out of it. PLA isn't suitable for inside a gaming rig due to low melting point, but several other types of biologically sourced plastics are. Ironically, one of the oldest types of plastics (predating petroleum plastics), Cellulose plastics, have seen massive recent enhancements with newer chemistry and new interest. As of less toxic options, silica plastics are nice. However, they don't biodegrade nicely, just like ceramics. They just don't release nearly as much toxic waste into the environment as they do.
Thank you for keeping real important digital performance and actual "greed" in balance for sustainability on and for our precious planet.
I just bought all the components for my new pc. the only thing stopping me from getting it done is the graphics card that cost the same or even more than all the components I already got XD
A man of the people
Gamers are finally learning what the free software folks have been saying for years. Time to join us in buying gpus with functional open source drivers.
WHERE IS THAT BEANIE ON THE WEBSITE
The masses will buy cards at 2k bucks at this point even if its bots. Lets take NVDA to the moon along with GME ofcourse.
That is not at all surprising to me, I mean this world now days is now more inversed into wealth and greed, the earth has become a place for being a corporation, say for example politics everywhere, they lie so much just to get authority they do not care about the people what-so-ever. these corporations wheather or not its politics or things to buy such as computer components or video game consoles, you get screwed either way, truth is they rely mostly on our ignorance. Our government just wants us to be bled dry of money and under their control (i know it sounds like a conspiracy) and its unavoidable because it is everything and everywhere (religion, politics, all sources of media, even local and just striving to pay off rent).
Nvidia is smart
Snakes absolute snakes 🐍 Nvidia.
umm thats not even half
Didn't expect to get a lesson on the emptiness of the shareholder theory of value, but totally agree--corporations that narrowly pursue profit maximization for shareholders are not going to prioritize "social responsibility" (e.g. the environment) or even the consumers that might have initially bolstered their business if there is a new group that makes them more reliable profits (e.g. crypto currency miners).
Hello. I recently switched to Nvidia after playing for the Radeon team my entire pc life just to check out how the grass is on the other side. What'd I miss?
That’s why I will only build all amd PCs. Intel and Nvidia succ pp.
This channel is just God Tier!
umm guys i think linustechtips is approaching a class singularity 😳 based linus debunking the myths about profit incentives uwu. learning about capitalism w my homie linus :3
gamers rise up
Let's be honest. Linus' face is more click-bait-y than the title. I have been doing lots of research on mining lately, and if you are a serious miner you shouldn't be buying a GPU at all. There countless products(mind you, they're mostly sold out) from companies like BitMain that are far more efficient and make more money than the equivalent value in GPUs. They are single unit's capable of 100+TH(terahashes) per second. My 1080ti gets about 32-40 MH(megahashes) per second(depending what I'm mining). This ASIC devices are crazy good at what they do.. I am still baffled as to why miners seem to flock to GPUs. Buy your dedicated mining rig, and have your PC separate. Someone needs to optimize mining through a combination of hardware and software beyond the status quo.. PC users/gamers are suffering.. I have been looking for a 3090 for weeks. Oh yeah fcuk you, Nvidia. OH DANG BABY LINUS @5:00 hahah!
Their over priced graphics cards that give them 60% (3080) - 90% (3090) profit already gave that fact away.
Wait... so they are a company that chases money? I'm shocked!
Thank you for roasting that greedy & sh**ty company 🔥🔥 Damn that video felt good to watch. Hope more big DEfastsr make vids like these to make a statement that it's enough now with that BS !
No (tech) nor any onther company does, not about gamers, not about the environment. get real people. not just Nvidia
On another note, please send Linus a dollar, he is now a hobo :P
Gamer: Yeay, no more miner on RTX. Less demand, less price. Nvidia: that's not how capitalism works
Game companies could give old card a lease of life by make there games multi gpu compatible. I don't mean SLI or Crossfire but the like of directx12 MutliGPU functions. Then when the mining bubble does burst gamers can buy muliple cards cheap and run the latest games at full speed. I am currently holding back on buying new games because I cannot get a good enough graphic card to run new games. So it maybe in the gaming companies best interest to start doing so.
I still have a gtx 560 ti lmao
nice take! i just searched for gpus today and found that a 1650 is costing as much as a 2060 costed a few months ago! now is up to AMD, it'll make the same shit? or save the day? they have a great opportunity here
Okay skipping my 3070 update until mybe next year! Thank you mate!
Last time I checked the gaming industry was bigger than the movie and music industry put together, about 86 billion dollars per year. I don't think it will be ignored to a point it damages the videogame industry. You say there is a shortage but do you really know what the numbers are ? Where is it shipped from ? What quantities are we talking about ? Anyone ? The guy at NVIDIA probably pisses himself laughing at this video.
The 3060 is very likely to be the best selling GPU ever. Many people get cheap GPUs a generation down the line when miners sell them
Nvidia is a heartless, anti gamer, con artists. Like my sponsor
They're a business. Maximizing profits is their one and only goal. I thought everyone knew that already.
People out here actually thinking corporations care about them lol
Wow! Just what I needed. The truth!!! I been waiting to buy one of these cards now I see why. Thank you
The sun has enough power to power 1000s of Earths. Don't tell me it wast power.
Thank you for using your platform to speak out against corporate BS like this. We appreciate you and your team Linus.
Never payed nvidia a cent
Thanks for the great info
This title should read "Entire gaming industry doesn't care about you"
Linus Based Tips
I love this, but damn this why I invest in those greedy fks
I just got Lenovo gaming PC and when I'm not gaming, the PC is mining . GPU is 3060ti
5:08 Nice camera skills!
4:58 Look at young Linus!
9:29 Now that's what I call "courage". It's also the reason why I love this channel!
That's why i will get an amd card
