And it's all moot until GOG starts making devs put the Linux versions of their games on here to equal parity that they do other platforms.

I'd be on Linux if I could be and enjoy the same gaming experience as I do in Windows. :|

I wached a number of linus's videos, they are very informative and give some good tips.

Anyway , Nice offer but why Ryzen only ? Intel might be more expensive but i stick to Intel, it's my 1st choice, never had any hardware problems, and the i7 9700K is also pretty impressing, and it might be more expensive.

So this is the collab announced like a month ago?

Neat.

Gotta love how the ultimate gaming machine already contains an unreleased game...

So what's with Victoria II: Civil War Edition listed at the bottom of the game list with no store card?

Well Linus was all pro-Intel not that long ago. Influencers are like a flag...it all depends where the wind blows from. Mainstream slowly shifted towards Ryzens and no matter how hard you push a brand on your yt channel, after a while people start to wonder why even your grandma bought Ryzen system instead of an Intel and you have to adjust, else you become redundant.

Personally I wouldn't touch Intel even if it costed the same as AMD's equivalent just for the sheer amount of security vulnerabilities in recent months and copious amount of shady practices in not so distant past. Get ready for marketing campaign from Intel though, they've set aside $3bn for advertisement,sponsorship, bribes, etc, just like in the past. Both are corporations, but I want them to compete in tech and r&d, not via adds and influencers. We, the end users, have nothing to gain from add-wars.

Watched the video only because it mentioned GOG and another video that mentioned GOG.
Interesting they weren't really that good with gaming skills in the main video, but are good with their tech, now if only i could get that ultimate gaming machine :P i did enter the giveaway but chances are rather small.
Also it's really a nice gesture of GOG for giving over 450 games to them but if somebody gets the pc with all those games installed and there would be updates i guess they would have to buy the games then to get the updates.
Also lol those leisure suit larry questions and how they failed and it said they are a kid.

I feel like my two-year-old desktop with Ryzen 7 1800X is more ultimate than that thing. What makes it a monstrosity? By the specs it sounds like a very typical desktop gaming machine.

For future reference, the word in this case should be whopping (as in a whopper, and pronounced appropriately). Whooping can be one of a couple different things, but it's not properly used this way. :)

That ssd gets speed limited due to the motherboard 'only' supporting PCIe 3.0. Though that is very fast too so not by a huge amount.

I certainly would not mind having a 2TB (€465*), or even a 1TB (€251*), Corsair MP600 in my computer. What I would mind is paying for them.


* Prices include a lot of VAT.

Stopped watching Linus videos years ago, very full of himself, very annoying and just straight out lying (back then, I don't know about now). I remember him talking about a mouse and how it's the best mouse blah blah blah and it's the one he uses blah blah blah, and a few days later he showed his home PC or something (I can't remember now) and surprise surprise he had another (worn out) mouse.

That was the last straw. I felt disgusted and never watched him again.

BUT, always nice to see more games on sale, so yeah!

this is so awesome :) and you also gotta love Linus! thumbs up

Maybe they mean a crane with coughing spasms?...

Because right now, you get from AMD more for the same money as from Intel. Simple.

I have just made an uprade to an AMD Ryzen 2700 and it works delicious. The 3xxx series should be even faster.
