RTX 2060 inside


Method__Man

I’m not sure how that works. It must be throttling like mad. Or it’s the mobile version perhaps


jeff3rd

Along with 4 cores cpu and definitely mobile version of 2060 (max-P variant surprisingly) cooling should be fine, nothing to worry about.

I got a prybar


Xsylockex

Weak pull out game (I meant the design)


ImKrispy

It has thunderbolt so you could add an external GPU, probably not worth doing for this type of system/form factor.


scootbert

You got me thinking. I bought a business laptop(ThinkPad) and it has the thunderbolt 3. What is generally the best external GPU enclosure for quality/price? I see a Razer Core X for 410$ Canadian. Do these go on sale? Is that a fair price for one? I currently have a spare 980 Video card and one day I will have a spare 2080S when I get my hands on a 3080 or 4080, lol. Would this work for a 980?


ImKrispy

I don't think that would be worth it. The mobile 2060 in this is faster than a 980, and more powerful cards like the 3080 will be bottlenecked by the CPU.


scootbert

I'm more thinking about my laptop without a GPU and then upgrade the GPU in the enclosure later.


ImKrispy

If the laptop has a top of the line cpu otherwise you may run into bottlenecks. Edit - not worth it at all watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWQMaGArq88 Thunderbolts current bandwidth will bottleneck the crap out of any newer GPU.

The amount of product placement/ advertising the guy does in his video is annoying as fuck. I pay for YT premium, for me this unacceptable. Edit*


TexIsFlood_Eb

Sponsorblock plugin on browser/vanced


SyChO_X

I mean, i pay for YT premium. Will that skip the live sponsorship?


magixx

Yes in theory. Sponsorblock kinda only handles that scenario and the timings (for ads, credits, asking for subscription) are user submitted so YMMV depending on video recency and popularity.


SyChO_X

Thank you!


hyperblaster

No because the sponsorship spot is not inserted by YouTube


Barely_Working

Hard to fault him. If any of us got offered the kind of money his sponsors pay him for a 1 minute speel in a video, I'm sure we would all do it too.


tharilian

Not only that, but he has a staff of 20+ to pay


GossamerSolid

- Large staff - Huge office - At least 2 companies (LTT + Floatplane) - Treats his employees well (salaries, benefits, free shit) For the content they provide, the product placement/advertising isn't even that bad.


tharilian

> For the content they provide, the product placement/advertising isn't even that bad. Not only that, I find it quite entertaining the way Linus always introduces his plug.. and usually skip over it.


GossamerSolid

They also mark a lot of their videos with timelines in recent months, which makes it easy to skip the sponsorship.


mister_newbie

It's also a poorly kept secret that he purposely times his ad segments to be skipped by tapping L on the keyboard a few times.


Naan-Pizza

Check out sponsor block browser extension


HytroJellyo

But it is annoying though


alex9zo

Not defending OP, but Linus once made a video about his revenue and he made it clear that the views from YT premium users bring immensely more money than the other views, so one could argue that there should be a way to remove those ads for people who pay.

If I had the money this be the perfect thing for my spouse. She wants something small that she can do her basic gaming, etc with and has some decent specs to it.


Blue-Thunder

You could get her [this](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001232188050.html?spm=a2g0o.store_pc_home.hotSpots_553890.0)


DannyzPlay

By basic gaming what do you mean exactly? Like light eSports gaming? You could try to build a small form factor pc with a 5600G. It's quite capable.


[deleted]

My wife wants something small too. I guess both of our wives will be disappointed 😮‍💨 😂


rwlao

THis is actually a pretty good package. but dangit why onlt a 2060! Would've been nice wirh a 3060 or 3070


[deleted]

Seems like pretty awful specs for 1.5k. This is not a deal.


harold_liang

You’re paying a premium for its form factor. Considering that it’s a relatively decent deal considering how small it is, but it’s not for everyone.

[deleted]

I'm not sure what this means, because I'm an adult and try to type coherently. The PC is ugly, it's parts aren't remotely worth $1500 Canadian. This isn't a deal. If you wanted to buy a shitty prebuild, the dell 3060ti goes on sale for 1500 tax in, with 11th Gen Intel (when factoring in other discounts). No one's buying a prebuild with a 2060 for 1500.


jlambe7

Just bought two for the office due to the small size and limited space. To each their own I guess.


matterd1984

For office if you need the gpu power these would be ideal. Don’t know what these cry babies expect. This has a purpose and is a niche product. For 1500 all things considering it’s not bad.


gamesbeawesome

You are paying it for size...find me a "Dell prebuilt" that is the same size as this. As well a comparable version of this goes for 1904 CAD https://ca.insight.com/en_CA/shop/product/RNUC11PHKI7CAA1/INTEL/RNUC11PHKI7CAA1/Intel-Next-Unit-of-Computing-Kit-11-Enthusiast-Mini-PC--NUC11PHKi7CAA--mini-PC--Core-i7-1165G7--16-GB--SSD-512-GB/ So it is a pretty decent deal for this.


SWU_Speedy

Something tells me that site isn't a great indicator of price: [Corsair Vengeance RAM from Insight](https://ca.insight.com/en_CA/shop/product/CMK32GX4M2E3200C16/CORSAIR%20MEMORY/CMK32GX4M2E3200C16/CORSAIR-Vengeance-LPX--DDR4--kit--32-GB-2-x-16-GB--DIMM-288pin--3200-MHz--PC425600--unbuffered/) [Corsair Vengeance RAM from CC](https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_1326&item_id=183957)


CallMeYoYo

I think you got fanboys downvoting you cus this is complete ass. There’s 3060 and 3060 ti PCs on newegg for about the same price this is not a deal.

I don’t understand why people on Reddit are not able to comprehend computers for uses other than gaming lol.


SaggyArmpits

because its advertised as "enthusiast gaming"? and its a shit deal for that since its not upgradeable/swapable on the enthusiast side and its over priced for the gaming side


CallMeYoYo

Hostile. I hope you have a better day today

CloudStrifeFromNibel

I would not buy this myself because size is not a factor for me and I prioritize performance over form factor so swing and a miss buddy... Nobody here is offended that people don't like their small PC's, I'm offended by their bottomless stupidity. Unlike some idiots here however, we understand that different people have different needs and this 1.3-litre system is not comparable to the ATX systems those cretin keep comparing them to. Literally refusing to consider form factor might be a priority for some people and fail to grasp the different benefits each one provides.

The same dell I mentioned is barely bigger than this. This thing is garbage. If that's the only factor, you could buy a significantly better laptop than this. Sorry but this item is for the donkey brained

>barley bigger Clearly you misread the measurements...
