5454 11 Discussion Our public statement regarding LTT self.Linus Tech Tips Submitted 2 hours ago by Billet_Labs [+1] 33 & 20 more You, the PC community, are amazing. We'd like to thank you for your support, it means more than you can imagine. Steve at Gamers Nexus has publicly shown his integrity, at the huge risk of backlash, and we have nothing but respect for him for how he's handled himself, both publicly and when speaking directly to us. Regarding LTT, we are simply going to state the relevant facts: On 10th August, we were told by LTT via email that the block had been sold at auction. There was no apology. We replied on 10th August within 30 minutes, telling LTT that this wasn't okay, and that this was a £XXXX prototype, and we asked if they planned to reimburse us at all. We received no reply and no offer of payment until 2 hours after the Gamers Nexus video went live on 14th August, at which point Linus himself emailed us directly. The exact monetary value of the prototype was offered as reimbursement. We have not received, nor have we asked for any other form of compensation. About the future of Billet Labs: We don't plan to mourn our missing block, we're already hard at work making another one to use for PC case development, as well as other media and marketing opportunities. Yes it sucks that the prototype has gone, it's slowed us but has absolutely not stopped us. We have pre-orders for it, and plan to push ahead with our first production run as soon as we can. We also have some exciting new products on our website that are available to buy now - we thank everyone who has bought them so far, and we can't wait to see what you do with them. We're happy to answer any questions, but we won't be commenting on LTT or the specifics of the email exchanges - we're going to concentrate on making cool stuff, and innovative products (the Monoblock being just one of these). We hope LTT implements the necessary changes to stop a situation like this happening again. Peace out Felix and Dean Billet Labs 900 comments (54 new) source share save hide give award report crosspost hide all child comments

Gamer Nexus takes the high road. >LTT doubles down forcing Gamer Jesus to go full biblical on their ass. >Exposes shady practices like Linus reviewing merchandise he himself has invested $200k in. >Exposes shockingly inaccurate data in CPU, GPU and CPU Cooler benchmarks that are off by up to 300%. >Exposes Linux for saying that he purposefully puts out videos with incorrect data because fixing it would cost another $500. >LTT employees themselves say that they are burnt out on making 25 videos a week. >LTT is now run by a seasoned industry CEO. Worth $100 million and has 120 employees. >LTT reviews a prototype GPU cooler for 3090 using a 4090 then botches the install and proceeds to trash the cooler despite inaccurate testing methodology. The developer of the prototype cooler points out that this was poorly tested and that they were never contacted with the bizarre findings by LTT. >LTT then auctions off the prototype despite the developer requesting it back months ago. This was the only working prototype which means the work has now stalled. >LTT's most recent review of a mouse was somehow even worse with them trashing a mouse they werent even given for review. All because they forgot to remove a plastic tape at the bottom of the mouse causing it to lag. >LTT has a habit of issuing half hearted corrections instead of taking down videos and then not pinning the comments so people watch videos that have clear errors. >Gamer Jesus sides with the developers of the mouse and GPU cooler for being wronged by LTT and points out that small developers' entire life work is ruined because Linux didnt want to spend an extra $400 to fix a video. >Former female employee speaks up after 2 years of silence about bad working conditions there and what Linus is like behind the scenes TLDR; LTT is the EA of youtubers. 88 Anonymous Thu 17 Aug 2023 05:44:19 No.95411219 >>95410865 >>Exposes shady practices like Linus reviewing merchandise he himself has invested $200k in. to be completely fair, Linus never made this a secret, he actually put up a notice for everyone that he's financially invested in the framework startup >>Exposes shockingly inaccurate data in CPU, GPU and CPU Cooler benchmarks that are off by up to 300%. there was only one mark off by 300%, the others were dubious to say the least tho everything else is true
