The cooler is Cool but stupid 🙄 it's unnecessary and a normal 360 AIO with the small round screen is all it needs to be.. no screen is best especially if you have a case where the front panel and side panel are made as 1 l shape screen the effect would actually be visible then and it can be used to have PC information like temperature and CPU frequency and ram initialisation ect.. that would be good to have cold air intake tunnels for inlet (top of the case) and exhaust (rear of the case) GPU intake at the bottom of the case all 3 with 3D printed air tunnel's (has been done and shown on video to be very effective) that way the front and side panels can be solid screen without effecting cooling... Bus a hologram CPU block isn't really turning on my cool button..
There is no net neutrality if the biggest social media mute shadow mute ban etc people for expressing an opinion they don't like
On the Zen5 rumor, another serial leaker (which, while I don't always agree with what he says, his leaks are pretty solid) - the YT channel "Moore's Law is Dead" specifically said that it's NOT 40% and that everybody is wrong on that. To his sources, it's 16-24% IPC increase, and the clock speeds seem to be mostly similar. And I firmly believe him on this one. 40% increase is either a) very cherry picked, b) totally wrong or c) gigantic, almost unseen, gen-to-gen improvement. The last time that has happened is from Buldozer to Zen 1, which was also 4 years, not just 2. And it was from a rather bad architecture to begin with, while here the "previous gen" is already very good and advanced on all fronts. To put it shortly 40% my @$$
You should setup a chart for Leak accuracy, as most of these seem to come from the same people. A top 50 of Leakers who claim something and then look at what happens when the product is released. So you can once and for all, tell people with a degree of trust, whether or nor its a "good" leak source. Go on, you know we all love charts, lets have leakers chart
Wow I made 7 billion dollars more than the Intel Foundry last year.
I think you should hire someone to do your taxes.
You don't get how debt and grants work... heh. They are building huge amounts of factories, costing billions, but Joe just gave them billions to make fabs locally, instead of relying on se asia fabs
@@dertythegrower he still made 7 billion more than intel foundry last year
I'm sure that number is ONLY for tax reasons
@dertythegrower Actually the grant was passed by Trump in 2019 and was aprooved in 2020. Sleepy Joe has nothing to do with it. In fact he has given funding to Asia for their fabs. Get your facts straight. Make America Great Again not Build Back Broke and blame Orange Man. You sheep. FJB, F all long term politicians making millions while we suffer. THEY DONT AND NEVER HAVE CARED ABOUT THE PEOPLE!

Intel has had like 50 cranes deployed at their chandler facility for at least 3 years now, it’s nonstop building there. I drive past it every morning.
We were out there not long ago! Just curious: What's the local reception been like to the project?
I see it often when I go to that smoke shop near the i10. I'm off Riggs road myself. About 5 miles ish from it. It's been multiple cranes of various sizes for years now. As far as the buzz around it. I would say indifferent. Where I'm at is bear the retirement 55 or older crowd. So most are not firmilar with techs stuff. 😂
Cranes are roughly $450 an hour to hire so I’m sure this makes up for a big chuck of that 7B, ((50x450)x24x7)x(52) comes out to $196,560,000 per year just on crane hire alone, assuming they aren’t getting discounted rates or subsidies
@@GamersNexus There has been a lot of pain to be honest, I know of several businesses around the area that closed down or relocated to entirely different cities in the valley because of the infrastructure improvements limiting access to their address. The traffic in and out is sometimes an inconvenience but well managed for the most part.
@@GamersNexusfrom what I understand most people don’t care about it. But im a pipe fitter and I have made a lot of money from intel so I don’t mind them😊😂 on a serious not they have brought a lot of business and money to the area and have provided thousands of jobs and their water consumption is near zero

I pay for gigabit up. My provider (Telus) throttles my uploads to KZhead to a couple hundred kbps. Unless I run a speed test. After that my upload speed magically goes up to a gig and stays there for 20 minutes. I'm not sure what Canada's regulatory stance is on Net Neutrality but I expect it isn't much better than yours at this point.
That's why the world wanted the U.S to implement it. It runs most of the internet, and sets the standard. We knew that if they said fast & slow lane extortion was Ok, then everyone else would copy.
That sounds like the Volkswagon Diesel emissions trick to fool testing. Volkswagon software detected when tests were done, and improved the emissions during the testing, thus cheating the tests.
My condolences that you have to live in one of the worst authoritarian states in the world.
You sure it is not on KZheads end? They recently made upload and recoding times way longer in 2024
@@dertythegrowerIt is not. KZhead would not change my connection speed based on running Telus' captive speed test. My uploads (once they get there) always process fassssst. H.265 is the new default ingest I guess.
It's funny the two articles I read recently: 1. Intel CPUs won't subsidize Intel fabs anymore 2. Intel fabs won't subsidize Intel CPUs anymore
Becuse taxpayers are subsiding both.....finally a stock that boosted congressmembers net worth more than tesla ....boy they jumped ship just at the right time
^^ Exactly, they're gettin kickbacks at nearly every level.
Joe just gave them billions because.. taiwan
Looks like they're setting up for a split so selling Foundry is a bankruptcy contingency
I'm ok with paying $10 or 12 a year to subsidize Intel to stay in the US. There are a lot of different things that could happen in Taiwan that could put the whole world in a bad spot very quickly.

If RGB does not make a product expensive enough, just put LCD screens on it, dual screens, OLED screens, miniled, QDOLED, make it solid gold, who needs functionality when you can pay $500 for a cooler or a pack of fans.
A sign of the times, I fear. Some have too much money while more have not enough. Hype merchants are chasing the first.
I got an idea it's only a matter of time before the tech gets less expensive and we'll be able to get a CASE that replaces the tempered glass with a screen.
You forgot diamonds. The light from OLED screens would make them shine brilliantly.
@@Slugbunny .. No. The latter market is still catered to plenty. The reason RGB and screens are being slapped onto products they (arguably) have no business being on is because people are buying them
@@jessesmith4541 someone already had that idea... there are mods that make glass side panels into screens that display animations or anything you like and you can actually use them as monitors... yeah. But in this particular case, it is a very cool concept because of the things that can be done with the side panel screens displaying animations and random patterns, it's genuinely cool.
Thanks Steve!
You're welcome

16:43 I think the real news is that Google not only didn't stop collecting data when people went incognito but they also explicitly _flagged_ their data with the fact that someone was in incognito mode. Otherwise they couldn't delete the data retroactively. I mean, I bet the information is super valuable that someone felt secretive about their current activity but having a giant spotlight shone at their activity is really not what most people want when going incognito.
Very good point!
The engineers know exactly what they’re doing, it takes teams of people to make this stuff happen, there are no accidents
@@MikehMike01 I don't think anyone assumed this was an accident.
Never thought the rgb vs stealth builds concept would ever have a new challenger, displays.
I still find it hilarious that they are called "stealth" when they look like one of the two choices of case colors we had in the 90s like calling it that makes it way cooler. But ya ... The whole screen thing is absolutely ridiculous now.

I'm glad intel is investing so much in Capex right now. Real infrastructure, spread out across different territories. That's more of what we need!
What I think: my PC sits under my desk so there's no way in hell I'd ever pay 2x more than my AIO costs for a pretty screen I'll never look at.
At this point I want everything to shout 'hammertime' when I pick it up, endless lolz to be had
Oooh... Sounds like a fun DIY. Arduino + accelerometer + sd card mp3 player + speaker = ~$8 Cheaper if doing a bunch of them. NO! I have too many projects on my backlog already!
I think screens on components are a sign that manufacturers are desperate to stand out any way they can (and to hike the price as well). They're actual bells and whistles in the original sense of the phrase; a useless feature superfluously added to a finished product with the sole purpose of drawing attention. RGB 2.0. I imagine the only reason they don't put speakers on everything is because those can't be made simultaneously as compact and high quality as screens can.
Screens are so cheap to make and it will only get better to the point even our clothing will have washable, embedded LEDs for displaying images and text.
I love it when Steve roasts the ISPs. Never let up until they get better
The Scooby Doo clip gets my upvote. Accurate yet humorous!

Steve is the ultimate meddling kid
I have a little Minisforum machine I use as an HTPC and it's been flawless for the like 8 months I've been using it to drive two screens for my F1 watching setup
Our monitor set actually is also powered by a Minisforum box, and that runs 9 monitors. They've cleaned up their act a lot since we first reviewed them - maybe worth a revisit!
One of those "the little guy" stories you don't hear
I run a bare metal 9-node k8s cluster entirely out of NUCs, Minisforum, and Bee-link boxes. I like the small, low-power, quiet stuff (so, not the NUCs on that last point) with 2.5GbE (also not the NUCs...). I've noticed a distinct increase in Minisforum quality and reliability over the past few years. I wish their customer service had some improvement, but the hardware itself keeps getting better.
@@jamesharmison8688What's the reason for running a cluster at home? Sure it's cool and has HA, but to me it sounds like added complexity for little benefit. You can have everything in 1-2 beefier machines and probably use less power overall
@@HyuLilium k8s is my literal job so it's not very complex to me. I run a bunch of video game servers mostly, and they run much nicer in k8s than they would any other way, with lower maintenance overhead. Wrt power, no - you're just wrong about that I'm afraid.
The fact that most of TSMC's factory were hit by the biggest earthquake in 25 years didn't make the news in the place of Intel...... Fabs fine,most of them went back on line the same day
Function, function, function is ..everything. I don't want extra screens, I will never look at extra screens. I build for performance, not aesthetics.
Same I take my side panels off and put a desk fan facing towards it, no case fan can beat a $20 walmart fan and an open case.
The King 95 Pro you advertised, fried my £400 motherboard and £270 AIO. Pro Tip: Double check the ARGB/Fan Hub if you buy one. Oh nearly forgot, it fried itself with a nice sizzling sound, accompanied by a rancid burnt plastic odour and a dying flutter light show, It was all very exciting, but expensive nevertheless!
Should probably email GN about it (forgot the exact address), they'd be interested in learning about this kind of hardware failure even if they weren't running ads for it.
What was wrong with the fan hub? That's not enough information to understand what happened. A couple other questions: Assuming it was their defect, did you ask support to replace the parts and what was the answer if so? Do you still have the case? If so, email team at gamersnexus dot net because we might want to buy it and inspect it. Thanks!
@@GamersNexus Yes I still have the case, but I’m in the UK. I was transferring my old PC into the case, with a new AIO. I didn’t ask for support because 1> I wasn’t sure exactly what went wrong. 2> I’m not short of a few £ and 3> I assumed I’d be blamed for user error, because I built the system myself. The motherboard was the Z790 Rog Strix, the AIO was the LIAN LI GALAHAD II LCD 360 INF. I’d put 2 extra case fans into the build and that worked fine when the case turned on, but when the system was complete and turned on, there was a pop, sizzle, puff of smoke, then nothing. My 13700K and 4090 were OK luckily and sold, because I bought a pre configured white build from PC Specialist, to cheer myself up. Was it my fault? It’s possible, but I didn’t cut any corners and just couldn’t work out the problem, so just chalked it up as bad luck and a loss. I’ve got nothing against Montech btw, the case looked amazing and was really easy to build in, but the controller I did notice was a little flimsy. Thanks for the reply👍🏻
That 3D screen is gonna add SO MANY fps to the inside of my case.
Well it probably didn't have any frames before, so adding any is an infinite increase, right? A bargain at any price!
@@SimonBuchanNz lol I was gonna write the same.
That mjolnir looks like one of those rugged battery banks they sell to people camping etc but ... with a handle. Only the biggest leaps of innovation
Bit more than just camping but yes, I reckon it will be some existing design with a stalk on top instead of a handle for reasons. If it has MPPT solar charging and UPS functionality and comes in at the right price then yey. If not, basically anything made by Jackery or Bluetti (or APC) might better serve the purpose. But hey, those ones don't have fancy RGB doodads I guess.
The unique form factors and random companies popping up are super interesting IMO. I loved seeing the old cylinder case you reviewed, and think it would be great to see more of it

Thanks Steve
In the chapter tabs, it says billboard-Sized instead of billboard-Style. I hope it's not intentional. 😂
So excited for the tour, especially coupled with being able to talk to engineers there at Intel
I pay 30$ per 100mbit fiber optic channel at home, and my company pays 3100$ for 50mbit of "business" internet, only physical difference is that business internet package has fixed IP address, and some level of speed guarantee that it won't drop more than 10%
Business also gets tax right off
Okay GN, we know what you need to do. You need to get the Mjolnir and test it! :D

If you think US internet is bad wait till you hear how much worse the Canadian ISP monopoly(triopoly?) is. We only have 3 options Rogers, Bell, and Telus and all are fucking terrible
You have 3?! Better than us!
@@GamersNexus no trust me Canada 3 = -1 US ISPs because we just got gigabit speeds a few years ago and even then only one use FTTH Bell or Telus if you're in Western Canada
I have like 120 mbit down here in Latvia, Riga. We have optical lines in the region, but ADSL is still everywhere. From 3 local ISP's 2 absolutely suck and provide unstable connection. The third one is expensive, but the only other option is a cellular "5G" access point. However - "5G" doesn't really work inside a concrete building so it's the same speed but with the "convenience" of strict NAT.

Can’t wait for the FAB tours. Many years ago was offered a position in Chandler at a new plant wanted to go but could not make it happen then.
Oh it's a COOLER. From the title I was expecting some sort of avant-garde imac-looking thing...why does a cooler have two screens, and even with two screens, why money number so bigger badder?!
We've reached a point where cooling isn't really improving all that much. If you look at most of the AIOs of a specific size they're all relatively close in performance, especially if you standardize the fans. It's a couple degrees between models. If you can't differentiate yourself with performance you have to do it with something else. At first it was RGB. You picked red if you wanted a better OC, blue if you wanted lower temps, and green if you wanted lower power draw. Now everything has RGB, so they need something new. That new hotness is screens.
You guys have gotten a lot more entertaining lately. It's great to have such in depth content that is also not sleep inducing.
I love the new coasters. I haven't got the newest ones yet but I really like the first round of coasters you guys did. I'm gonna go ahead and grab the other new ones!
Thank you so much!
The thing with the Intel losses is these aren't new losses. This is just a change in how the numbers are reported. These aren't $7B in new losses. The difference is last year before the reporting of the foundy was spun off the foundry "losses" would be offset by the product sales. Key point there.
SSD (at least m.2 drive) prices have already risen 20-25% in Australia since last December, I have heard of similar rises in Europe. This was predicted last year.

Yup. Last November I bought a Samsung 970 evo plus 1tb nvme on Amazon for 35€ (I wish I had bought more lmao even though I didn't need it). Nowadays the same drives are like almost 3x more expensive than that in virtually any store. Ssd are way pricier now, same with ram sticks.

I hate the internet today. Zen 5's 40% uplift in SPECviewperf is NOT newsworthy. Don't run with it. It's either an aggregate score or a sub-score. But given that AVX512 is pretty much guaranteed to get a 100% uplift (Zen 4 does "double pump" AVX512 by basically concatenating two AVX256 operations) I suspect this is the total aggregate score, and that the AVX512 sub-score is weighted heavily in the final result.

The problem wirh net neutrality is that it doesn't actually accomplish what it says it's supposed to do. All of the problems it's supposed to solve got worse the last time it was law. In theory, it's a good idea, and I certainly don't blame it for the problems getting worse, that's just good old-fashioned corporate greed, but it does make it ineffective.
lol, I remember back when Google's motto was "Do no evil" I think they outsourced the print for it in the head office and the plaque reads: "Do know evil"
im always nervous about giving govt agencies more power
Exactly. People were acting like the world was going to end without net neutrality. We don't have it and nothing got worse.
i havent looked into the rog thor at all, but at first glance there's a chance it might actually be a UPS, which would be really neat, as opposed to just a power bank.
Just know your jokes never go unnoticed or unappreciated, Steve! Hammerime, badass-ery, hahaaa love it!
Has Intel considered calling it Lossflation?
I just wish net-neutrality was what it said on the tin.
Precisely. It won't (doesn't) do what most people think it will.
Remember when people were acting like if we didn't get net neutrality, the world was going to end?
ISPs have no reason to get better. Local governments grant them monopolies. Want more responsive ISPs? You have to find a place that has multiple ones in that geographical area and pray that there is some semblance of competition. NN looks like a good idea at first glance, but then they start talking about "enemies" and you realize that we're the real enemy they're going after so the government can protect their donors' profits.

Opponents of Net Neutrality should have a difficult time trying to make their case given they've had 7 years to show the sort of "innovations" and "investments" that it was stifling, and they've done absolutely nothing to benefit consumers.
We oppose it because what the government was calling net neutrality wasn't net neutrality (read it! It explicitly let ISPs hose connections to whatever sites they wanted). If they government uses a misleading name for something, it's never good.
Flip side to that arguement is that nothing really changed and all the fear mongering when it was repealed all turned out to be just that. The internet today is the same as pre-2017 when net neutrality was in force, and its revival in 2024 is unlikely to change much from the 2017-2023 period. Much ado about nothing either way.
Meanwhile its absence hasn't really changed anything at all either. Most of the "look what happened without it" still would have happened because it never had anything to do with it. We need common carrier far more than we need net neutrality.
Yes let's give the government more power. I'm sure they'll use it responsibly and know better than us regular folks.

It means when recompiled with compiler with optimizations specifically for the new processor with optimizations turned specifically to each processor in a situation where it is NOT power limited they got 40% geometric average on set of 10 different benchmarks that are not floating point applications but integer applications. So it is not as narrow as a single benchmark. Its not necessarily indicative about games until someone runs new optimizations on them. But it is indication that if you have access to source code, and you are willing to tune compiling parameters and get a new version of compiler after the launch with Zen5 optimizations on it you can get huge speed up for the single threaded case. Zen5 has a lot more execution width than previous processors and that width should constantly hit limitations of existing software. But with recompilation some of those limitations can be overcome. But do not assume it would be optimal for any other existing X86 processor to run binaries optimized for zen5, thus you are less likely going to see this kind of benefits on applications where you actually BUY the software as already compiled binaries. Let's make it simple, one eats instructions in groups of 6 and another eats them in groups of 8, if you optimize for one the other one has unused instruction fetch slots. As for believability of this claim. Well 50% increase in ALU width, L1 cache amount and 33% increase in load/store units and instruction fetch, AVX-512 execution width doubled. AMD has increased the raw available execution resources by large amount for zen5. There are also some hints about some other tricks that give significant boost. And now the unknown part, some of the SPEC-int by description would work perfectly with AVX-512 integer execution, and you could get something like 30% for recompiled binary except for some sub-benchmarks where they got double because double width AVX-512 single threaded integer application. And then get geometric average of >40% because some benchmarks are completely off the charts.
The way I understand it, anamorphic 3D effect requires the viewer to view the contents at an specific angle/specific vantage point to receive the desired effect (forced perspective-esque illusory trick). It works fine for billboards because the location of said billboards usually allows the intended viewers to look at them at the required angle. But would that work well when installed in a computer case? Granted many of us usually view the innards of the computer at a certain angle, but anamorphic image distorts when viewed at an off angle.
I have always hated RGB. All of these screens and such are a more obnoxious version of that. I don't get why people like this stuff.
not enough credit for the hammer time joke. gen x remembers, dammit!
Regarding hardware flashiness, it's fine if a person wants it, but personally I have to keep my LED setup extremely soft and only very subtly changing (if not static) or else it distracts me from my peripheral vision. It's the same with RGB keyboards, the most I can have mine set on is type lighting, which illuminates the keys pressed for a while
I love fab tour videos. I still hope that one day we can have consumer grade tech to fab at home like 3D printers have become ubiquitous, but for now these videos are great.
Nothing quite like someone saying "national security" while have their hands stuffed awkwardly in their pockets...
Zen 5 will reach 95C in 40% less time than Zen 4 did. That's what they mean.
I got nothing but screaming alarms when you started speaking about TRYX. I really want you all the get your hands on something they say they make and do a very thorough break down of it now.
I think more companies should name theri cases with "Tall, Venti and Grande" size pre-/suffixes
lol FCC basically saying they gonna censor the shat outta the internet without saying they gonna censor the shat outta the internet. 😂😂
Basically
"This also gives the FCC the ability to protect the internet" 😨😱
We are from the Government and we are here to help! 🤭
The only thing you can trust a government with is to screw it up.b
Because letting these soulless mega corps run the Internet has been any better. Get over yourselves.
Don't forget the government tried to hide that they actively tap on every major internet cable
If you want to know how bad this will be, look at the actual text of the old one falsely claiming to be "net neutrality". It explicitly allowed throttling a provider's choice of websites. Blocking that was literally the entire point of net neutrality!
7:48 nope, I got confirmation and it's going to be a case called encanto
18:57 as a french what surprises me the most is not even your scandalous conditions of access to the internet via ISP, but these incredible clips on every occasion and which I simply cannot understand how anyone either can watch this without thinking 100.00% of the time "these people are absolutely obviously lying to me, one way or another" they literally seem made for that how at point where one wonders how the fact of producing one cannot be instantly received as irrefutable proof that they are up to something
Yea, don't let people fool you we have great Internet for the most part. Steve is complaining about paying for a special line a, business line, but didn't tell you why he pays that. At the end of the year you can claim it as a business expense and right off or get that money back. One way the rich stay rich over here.
"...I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help."
Look, my take on Net Neutrality goes something like this: The Patriot Act wasn't patriotic... The Affordable Care Act wasn't affordable... So why the hell does anyone think Net Neutrality will be neutral, exactly?!
Because it's been explained very clearly. Maybe you should read up on it?
And also you're paying more for products like netflix now because internet providers are, under current law, allowed to extort them for money or their bandwidth will be throttled. The cost gets passed on to you, and we know this. Net neutrality means they can't favour or restrict any particular data. It encourages competition between ISPs because customers will just go with whoever gives the best value ....not whoever made shady deals that pretend you get better speed, while they artificially throttle other smaller ISPs using their infrastructure who didn't pay the protection racket.
@@domm6812 Americans, reading bills? That must be under 0.1% of the population. Mostly everyone gets their info either from the Russian foreign intelligence service or the Chinese foreign intelligence service; some from the Iranian.
@@ArchOfficial Jesus christ, you're all over these comments being a GIGANTIC racist, take a trip to the Barbara pit and never leave.
@@domm6812 The Patriot Act allowed the Government to tap your phones, see through your webcams (yes that's where that whole "covering your webcam with a sticky note" thing came from), basically stalk you and obliterate your privacy all in the name of state security, and it was legal. Funnily enough, it was deemed unconstitutional about a decade after it was passed, and even then it still exists today. The Affordable Care Act was supposed to make it mandatory for all businesses to provide some level of healthcare to all people who worked full-time, which was changed to working more than 28 hours per week, down from 32. What happened instead was that every non-salary service-level job instantly cut down the hours of all workers so you had your management and a select few number of people who were allowed to work more than 28 hours a week... because that was cheaper than providing a 'cheap' healthcare option, of which was taken out of your pay if you took it, and it was a substantial portion at that usually. Which, if you understand basic economics, instantly broke the system and further impoverished the super low income side of the population. So why, on god's green earth, would I EVER trust the FTC's Net Neutrality act being actually neutral? Also as a quick note, it turns out that no one was throttling anyone. The whole "netflix being throttled" ordeal actually showcased that Comcast wasn't throttling them at all, they were throttling their own connections to their users and it was revealed in the investigation into the matter. These acts are not put in place to help the common person. They're here to protect these overarching corporations ruling the digital landscape. It'll have largely positive outcomes early on with increasingly negative problems as time moves on. Making these things equivalent to municipalities will basically make you beholden to whatever price these companies want you to pay. Power companies are already charging insane prices in some areas, so what happens when these companies complain about bandwidth issues and charge double all of a sudden?
15:40 great I’ve already seen price hikes back up recently on the nvme drives. It’s getting me a bit hesitant to snag another drive for my legion go. I picked up some great deals a few weeks ago and now every drive I’ve bought a few weeks ago is up by 40-50$ each. Side note that v3 tablet is very very interesting and we talked about it on our podcast today. I’m tempted to pick one up. It’s very feature packed for the money. ❤
This guys coverage and video qaulity is top tier
MLID already debunked this rumour for Zen 5. He's stated the uplift is 15%.
He just made sure it was clear that it was ~15% on average and not 40% to be expected
I believe that was IPC gain, and this claim seems to be overall speed increase. Not the same thing. Still, I'm extremely skeptical of a 40% claim.
Please don't misquote MLID like that. People, who are too dumb, or have too short attention span, to understand what he's saying are always out to get him for "being wrong" because they think he said things he didn't say. And in this case he did NOT state the "the uplift is 15%". He stated that the IPC uplift is ~15%. If final clocks are, for instance, 10% higher too, then total uplift is 1.15*1.1 = 26.5%. If clocks remain the same, welp, then IPC uplift equals final performance.
The 16% to 18% is for gaming. It should be about 40% faster for CPU based crypto mining.

I can't wait to see how they perform. TCL has recently launched two new gaming monitors, the TCL 27R83U and TCL 34R83Q. Based on TCL's proprietary Fast HVA display, both monitors feature 8-bit+FRC colour bit depth, Quantum Dot Color and Mini LED technology.
I used to get nervous standing next to people at the urinal, but then I realized they're just my fellow peers.
Welp, I think the whole "screens everywhere" idea is really only useful (if that) for actual showcase events... I have a total of 10 RGB fans in my case, and as cool as I found them for the first few days, I now always turn RGB off unless the room is fully lit during the day, as all that extra light in my peripheral vision tends to get annoying or outright painful over time in less than ideal lighting situations. Furthermore, anything more than the default rainbow at low speeds tends to be much too distracting during everyday use, and such a screen, I feel, would compound this issue much more significantly than any fan on its own could.
