    I love the "Linux users... I love you, but you already know how to install Linux. Come on." I mean, I think now more than ever more people are considering switching to Linux based desktop operating systems than ever before, but even then the linux community is essentially a very special group of geeky nerds (and I LOVE THAT). I think your videos on daily driving linux and gaming on linux are a good start for getting people into it, though I think an actual overview or guide for Debian, Red Hat and Arch based systems (the most common distributions, or forks of distributions that you'll run into) would be nice for people who are interested in making the switch, or at the very least dipping their toes into the world of Linux. Of course, many people have already done that, but you guys have the resources and the audience to make a big impact, and I think you guys would really knock it out of the park. Anyways, fantastic video guys!

For example, Pop_Os! Basically installs itself, the hardest thing to do is choose your keyboard layout or partition layout (which you also have to do in Windows and I think is easier with GParted), in case of distros like Arch and that... the books are really good, the archwiki is awesome and the gentoo handbook is incredible, a bit hard to navigate at first but once you know your system it's masive, and this guide is for first time install, so yeah although I think they should have shown some linux distro like Mint, I don't think they should show distros which are for learning or power users.

    18:32 A quick advice about separating Windows partition: some apps can't be moved from where you install your Windows, like Microsoft Office. Windows also stores some temporary data in your user profile, particularly in AppData\Roaming. Not to mention there might be some performance penalty if your partition is running out of space. So if you need to allocate as little as possible, I'd suggest about 200-250 GB of storage used for Windows partition. Also don't forget to move your OneDrive (if you use them), Documents and Downloads folder after you install your OS.

    When putting the PC on the floor on carpet, I’d recommend getting an inexpensive laminated shelf from your local hardware store. You can get one that’s just slightly larger than the case’s footprint, and it gives you vastly improved airflow. Plus, you can slide the entire shelf on carpet when you need to access the back, without having to lift it up.

    This is similar to what I've been doing for years. I take a cheap 20.5 x 20.5 x 2 table top (the kind where the legs have screws that drive directly into the bottom of the top) and have it resting on top of the carpet next to my TV. This also limits the size of the case I can get, but it's not that big of a deal since I want my case to be on the smaller side for the times I have to move it next to my desk. The carpet itself is not very thick either, and regular vacuuming really keeps the dust buildup really low. Only ever have to clean the filter maybe every six weeks.

Some will enable Intel special storage control modes by default, others have networking that has no default Windows drivers, and others will have aggressive and loud fan profiles. Motherboards have a lot of features (many intentionally that provide benefits!) and settings, and the amount of tuning is based on what the vendor sets as default.

    9:05 With ASUS boards you can typically leave the update file into one of your internal drives (if they are formatted as NTFS and/or FAT32, unsure about others) and you can navigate to where you left the file and run it from there. What I want to say is that you don't necessarily need to use a FAT32 flash drive, but your mileage may vary.

    You should have mentioned the windows HDR calibration tool used to calibrate the min/max nits of the display and how it needs done per display. It makes a very large difference in the HDR quality in Windows 11 (I don't believe Windows 10 supports this HDR calibration, at least it didn't on the version I tested yesterday) Edit: just finished the video and this is my ONLY criticism of the video.

    21:23 Specifically this Sony model actually remembers up to 8 paired devices or so, and many other headsets as well. So, if your headset does not automatically connect to the PC, before re-pairing it to PC you can just try clicking Connect. It might work straight away and you wont have to re-pair the device. Thats because pairing (meaning: exchanging encryption keys) and reconnecting (meaning: connect to device that was connected last) are often separate processes and the latter can be performed without the need of the former. (I am not talking about Bluetooth Multipoint, thats a different thing)

    I recently bought 4 tb m.2 drive and after installing windows, after 20-60 mins of playing video games on it my PC shuts down and after 1 min restarts. I ran stress tests, disk scans, checked psu voltages, temperatures, and everything seems fine. I returned it for a replacement, but do you have an idea what might had been causing that? I am waiting for their side and in a week or so will hopefully get a replacement to test it out, but I am scared I will run into the same problem again.

    I'm a 17 year old pc enthusiast from India with minimum resources. It was just recent that my father got me a pc case with ARGB fans. But I just installed the cable from the hub to the M.B. 2 days ago but I was unable to make the RGB work With RGB fusion in which the fans did not show up and pressing the mb button on the Hubs remote just made the fans rgb start up once for half a second and then turn off for it to turn back on 2 seconds later. I was unable to fix it for the past 2 days but after watching the video and learning about Signal RGB it randomly works! I also learned a lot of new things like how to stress test and monitor temps and stuff alike. I'm very grateful to this channel and everyone who works so hard to make such awesome, entertaining and informative videos.

    On the note of "old school" BIOS screens... I had a 486 (Which unfortunately exploded) had an interesting BIOS... which wasn't only using a graphics mode with mouse support, but also had icons to double click, like a really old version of windows or something, AS THE BIOS. It blew up over 20 years ago, so it has been a long time since I saw it, but having a GUI like that in the BIOS was stunning to me.

I love Linus but this video completely lost me. It's so fast paced, it's like a setup speed race or something. I thought it was supposed to be for novice users trying to learn and understand. Hopefully I can find a more in-depth tutorial where someone slowly takes you through it without talking a mile a minute and flashing to a bunch of different screens. This video was a panic attack.

    I like to think i know my way around windows better than the average person, but a few of these i didnt even know about. Like OOBE. I had no idea you could actually disable the requirement for a microsoft acct. I know you can bypass it by leaving your ethernet unplugged and any wifi antennas removed during setup, which is what I do. But occasionally you still get prompts to set it up, which sometimes does this weird split/merge account "feature" where it either creates an entirely new user on your pc or does some unholy mishmash of what you had before and whats on your microsoft acct if you do set one up. It is so nice to be able to just remove the requirement entirely.
