Terrible time to post this video… You guys are going to get some HUGE backlash especially regarding the recent controversies surrounding Temu

Linus, my daughter was watching this video with me. The moment she saw that pink case, all she could ask is that I build her a computer that was pink. Thank you Linus. I was hoping to wait until she was 8 or 10 before she got her own first computer. She's 5 and this is your fault.
Lol
Sounds like your fault
@@killerb3609 Maybe Linus was the wrong motivation
To be fair, the pink case is pretty cute. I don't even like girly stuff or that shade of pink and I think it's neat.
Bad parenting
Linus: "Sucks less than I expected." TEMU Vendor: pops champagne "Linus endorsed us!"
i swear i think some of my friends get their gaming setups almost exactly like this
one or two components are pretty good but the rest came from *literally* the sketchiest website you can imagine
How can it be bad if it's so cheap, right?
@@sunbleachedangel right? part of your payment is your your payment info and all the personal info you gave them
Jesus how are you in the comments of almost every video i watch
@@cookiegod2794 i have the high ground, _duh_ 😆
But I thought your friends died during order 66
How well that webcam handled the exposure with the light in the background is insane
legit might buy it. im using a samsung s21 cell phone a shitty app to stream live footage to my stream and this thing looks SIGNIFICANTLY better
I did not see even a single re-focus... If it was capable that is.
Yea
it comes with an privacy protection feature. now the fbi cant see what u be doin in front of your webcams
@@ricarfus2212 LOL
If they hired an agent to watch every MFer who was jerkin it in front of a camera, there would be 20 billion people on this planet.
i love seasonic so much. one of the few remaining brands that just kills it every single time. i got a 1kw seasonic to be future proof back in 2012 and its still running strong. it runs so efficient, the fan has never kicked on once the entire time i've owned it (the fan comes on only when it runs hot)
Sir your fan might be broken
old psus are actually great. they don't make em like they used to tbh, my 2009 cooler master 1kw "silent" (it's not silent) pro is still living and killing it today, even with my 300w gpu and 200w cpu. (light work even with everything else on the pc)
@@froozle To be fair PC components have only gone down in their power consumption so old PSU were built to handle larger loads over time. So its one of those products where the older generation is actually better.
I'm absolutely blown away to see the zoro mousepad, which I already own, featured in this video. It's pretty high quality in case anybody was wondering.
The headset mic was actually a whole lot better than I was expecting
Ngl i was incredibly supprised by it... I honestly think it sounds better than some main brand headset mics...
@@xiraijuakara5988 i agree, but those have some noise cancellation that this doesnt have. NC always ruins the sound.
Onikuma is actually a good brand as go as headsets go, mina is 2 years now, and zero problems.
@@Baitrix1Most of the "NC" On gaming mics often is just passive its not true noise canceling and not all that good vs say RTX Voice, Discords Krisp noise suppression etc. So IMO most headsets with it tend to ruin the quality of it but some don't. Id rather headsets leave the NC alone for mics and let it be a noise gate or program based.
@@Baitrix1have you used Krisp? That is the best noise cancelling software there is to be found. I got my subscription from my company, and it was amazing.
That webcam and headset mic are impressive, I can't lie.
Yeah everyone is talking about that webcam, but not the quality of that headphone mic. You would not be upset with that at all.
@@superchickenlips1my mind was actually blown when I heard the headset mic. 90% of headset mics are worse than that tbh
I'm tempted to order that webcam
@@superchickenlips1When does he play headset mic audio? Timestamp please?
@@Exilir8 21:30
Good that Seasonic sponsored this build. That way the PC at least won't catch on fire.
ive actually had an onikuma mouse for a while now and they have an app to tune your mouse settings adjustable rgb and dpi color indication with like 8 buttons. its kinda nice for the cheap
The webcam and the headset microphone were genuinely impressive.
it’s because they steal your information in return of a cheap product
hide under a rock then, every single piece of technology you use will steal your info and sell it...@@blizzthebike
@@blizzthebikeShit with any luck they will feel bad for me and try to fix my shit credit they lock you in debters prison if you can't pay your debts in China I wouldn't even be mad if some desperate fool managed to get a loan in my name in The U.S. to stay out of prison in China I'd actually be pretty impressed 😂
And their price has apparently gone +150% since the video
@@blizzthebikea win is a win
That webcam is a champ. Even more so when compared to what some big brands put in their expensive laptops.
Absolutely! Lookin right at you Asus!
I mean yeah, laptop screens are thinner than your phone so...
Yeah like I have a £100 Logitech webcam and I think it actually looks worse under far more ideal situations than this one. Might have to look into it lol
Both the camera and headset microphone are really good for the price. My camera and my microphone system are about $100 each, and I am not sure they are any better or not worse. Maybe reliability wise there might be some issues, but for 11$ of w/e it was - damn
it's awesome! i really liked the microphone quality from that headset too! it's not muffled like other cheap ones
I had one seasonic 1k watt PSU for almost ten years with long term heavy gaming. Hands down the best I've ever had.
Jesus that light bar is like the literal Pokemon episode programmed in it. LOL.
As a postal worker, it's super interesting when fad junk retail outlets like Wish and Temu arrive on scene. All of a sudden, hundreds of orange parcels just arrive one day and you're left thinking "Where the heck is all this coming from..." Temu is far better than Wish on the logistical side of things though in that their labels actually have legitimate tracking numbers and somewhat accurate street addressing. Wish is probably universally hated by postal clerks as it was not uncommon for us to regularly spend hours manually searching for correct street addressing information because their parcels almost never had proper tracking information. Often, it pretty much came down to "Hey mail carrier, do you recognize this name at any of your stops on the route?"
Same thing here for me at DHL Germany
Yeah, until you learn that you don’t get paid for temu packages because china’s developing nations status
@@RusticRonnie What do you mean by that?
@@Renee_R343It means that shipments from China doesn't fund your country's postal services. Mail and packages from countries that don't have this status are paid for by the sender and money goes from the sending country's postal services and splits with the ones delivering them. Due to China's developing status, this doesn't happen. Meaning postal services basically deliver all these packages for free, which is actually a very big issue as these completely flood them. Search it up if you want a more correct explanation, was a while since I read it up.
But I've worked as a postal worker, and the amount of packages from the different Chinese sites take up a lot of time. And for the postal services to then have to re-scale the entire business for something they don't get paid for at all, well that's not good.
Postal Worker Jesse, Thank You for all you do!
I was actually blown away by how good the microphone from that headset is and the camera was for the price.
SAME!
That's generally the Temu experience. It is Russian Roulette. You either get something that feels too good to be true or it most certainly is lol.
@@ChaChaGames19 which is much the wish experience then
@@ChaChaGames19 I've bought a number of things from AliExpress, but I wouldn't buy them (the same) from TEMU.
I have an Onikuma headset, not exactly that one, I have the Onikuma K9. But I can attest to the fact that if you're buying of the cheaper side, they won't disappoint you. They're pretty nice for how much they cost. My one tip is maybe tamper with them on the equalizer to adjust them a bit, but other than that, lights, mic, and quality overall is great
i would love to see a video where you test the Temu products for Carmine, Arsenic, Lead, Asbestos, Chromium and/or Cadmium.
Quality of speakers I used to buy for product design mock-ups. Works but no big deal if you break them. That is pretty much all I've used Wish/etc for anyway; buy items to salvage the basic electronics from them for design prototyping... Speakers & bluetooth "soundbars"/travel things especially.
That headset mic was super impressive, so much better than my Corsair headset mic, not just by a little bit either!
Is your Corsair mic wireless? Anything wired will beat wireless by a long shot
@jatoxo no, the headset is wired. It is the Corsair HS60
100%
If I had to video in the background I wouldn't have guessed that they were testing the mic right there
I thought the same thing. I had a beyerdynamic MMX 300 for a day before I returned it because the mic was shockingly bad. This one sounds great.
Yea I was like: Are you sure this is the headset mic?
I was shocked by the microphone quality on that headset 😳
I’ve heard Alienware mics that sound significantly worse…
That was something special.
Yep. Was really impressed with the too.
@@Adam_Lynn oh absolutely, Alienware can stick it.
I just wouldn’t have expected anything better when ordering from Temu lol
It was a nice surprise.
Onikuma is pretty reputable brand in Malaysia, idk about others Asian country but in Malaysia a lot of people buying it because it's cheap and pretty good for daily use.
@@kaizuddinamin Personally never heard of them but at this point I wouldn’t be surprised that they have a good reputation.
Good to know 👍
I looked up "gaming laptop" on Temu, was surprised to actually see a few laptops, was now surprised they were at Best 8 Gen i5 with 256 HDD and 8gb ddr3 RAM. One had a no name processor but was only like $128.
i remember using temu since early 2023.
cant believe it took till the end of the year for more videos to show up
I'll I have to say is I really don't trust TEMU because their idea seem to be making shopping feel like a lottery. Even if some of their stuff is legitimately cheaper, I will avoid them at least for now because the combination of aggressive advertising and sales designed to "get you in the door" really sketches me out for whatever reason.
At least there are some smart people around still
fr
So you rather wait until the "honeymoon" is over and buy items at full price instead? Yeah, that's much better...
Wait until you find out about current investigation around Temu selling products made through forced labour.
@@dtesta Yes, I personally would rather buy a thing at full price when I know I need it. This deters me from buying useless things I just don't have a use for because there was a sale on something.
12:21 Zoro's lost his way again, he's now straight up disappeared from anime and is now in a Linus Tech Tips video

I wasnt expecting the amount of stuff in this video but it turned out amazing
12:36 the one piece is real!
Temu, the ultimate most unethical gamingsetup 9000.
Imagine treasure hunting temu and finding a 4090 for 400 bucks that's real and works
@@UTFapollomarine7409exactly
"Imagine"
Meaning its fiction
No more unethical than wish/alibaba/aliexpress/ect. This shit's been around for decades, the face that people think Temu is some kind of new evil corporation is absolutely fucking laughable.
@@PropsOutProductions Yep, exactly the same level of ethics as Amazon. Or Walmart. I.e, fucking NONE. Zero ethics.
nonsense, you can buy child-slavery chocolate for your gamer fuel locally
when you said "if you've been watching us long enough you'll know what comes next" I was fully expecting a sponsor spot
I've been getting an uncomfortable sensation every time Linus starts a series of questions with "What is..." or something the like. I always expect him to finish with "...the segue to our sponsor".
And then I'm annoyed when the sponsor is introduced in another way.
It's like when an abused wife flinches when someone waves: we're so used to the sponsor segues that we're hyper-alert to it
@@swarming1092 😂
@swarming1092 Too bad there's no such thing as UA-cam gold.
@@swarming1092 that's a rather crass comparison don't you think?
Dang I'm pretty impressed by the audio from the mic on that headset lol
out of everything im shocked at how good that headset mic sounds. there are actually expensive headsets with worse mics than that one
I love "Freedom in technology. Freedom in life." It is such a nice way to say: "We are copying someone else s technology without license but hope to stay out of prison."
Ah yes, that brilliant innovation of...
....RGB fans.
It's honestly baffling when people in the computer space defend patents when things like the asetek patent or apple exists. Remember when apple had US customs seize onesplus earbuds because they were (and i'm quoting the twitter post here) "counterfeit apple earpods" despite clearly saying Oneplus on them in Oneplus packaging?
reminder that patenting is the fundamental incoherence of libertarian ideology
@@anivicuno9473 I'm going to take that with a grain of salt since Twitter was your source.
Quite a huge jump in logic. It's like 30 cents worth of aluminum with a shitty rgb fan on top that's not some secret or patented technology
@@Dell-ol6hb It is not logic or a claim at all, I just like the wording and find it funny that it can be interpreted the way I did. No idea if it was intentional or relevant to the product.
That webcam was damn impressive for the price. I got a fairly high end consumer webcam some years ago (logitech that cost over $100 at the time), and it doesn't have quite as fluid of motion as your $11 one. I was also impressed by the headset mic, didn't sound that much different from what you normally use for videos (at least on my speakers which aren't high grade but still do fine)
Careful now, QC/QA is important. More likely than not, Linus probably just got lucky with the purchase and the one they shipped out after is probably barely functioning.
logitech webcams
@@LenKirinthey are weird
I've bought some super cheap and surprisingly good stuff on Temu, a lot of it is either minimal/no QC/QA (so it's a bit of a gamble) or it's legitimately good stuff but from 5-10 years ago. Bought some bike headlights for $1.50US that performed as well as some lights ten times their price, did a bit of searching online, and found out that yep, they're basically either overstock or re-used manufacturing from an identical set of lights that was being made overseas years ago.
Wouldn't be surprised if the webcam is the same thing, enough searching around and you'll likely find it's the same design as some old webcam from a bigger manufacturer. Probably one that was being made in China to begin with and when they switched to newer designs, the factory just went "eh, let's just keep making these".
@@JiorujiDerako I'm sure a lot of their products are also factory seconds or productions tests that weren't tossed. I'm finding many things on TEMU that's being sold on Amazon but for much less.
This is a good pair up considering the top 2 ads I see all the time are Temu and LTT.
The small chair at 20:57 would be perfect for fishing from shore. Use a backpack for your fishing tackle and attach the chair bag to the backpack. At that point you can carry a fishing rod in each hand.
Super happy to see a CRI measurement for those lights, I was legitimately wondering how they would perform when Linus first unpacked them.
I'd have liked them to have given the meter a proper intro in the video though, rather than just on screen text explaining good vs bad.
Especially considering one of the things mentioned in the video in terms of moving forward was about reducing the reliance of on screen text based corrections. It would have been so easy to get a member of the team to look up what the Sekonic light meter is, what it does and what's considered good vs bad.
For example, the fact that Linus says "So now I just go like this...?" and Andy's response is "I guess so", it just makes me trust you even less. If you're going to bring out a measurement device, make sure at least one person knows how to use it. If Linus doesn't know that's not terrible, provided we see on screen someone correcting Linus saying something like "So, to measure these lights you need to point the meter towards the LED lights and press this button."
Just that would have given me more confidence. I know this video is just for entertainment; but come on guys and gals, if you say you're going to do better, please prove it.
@@NotPicturesMemories the measurement was just for fun, they never showed anything on screen and never claimed it was a super accurate read. youre looking way too hard into something that doesnt need to be looked at. Also they was no comment an less reliance on text edits, just that for important things they would do more re shoots. this was not important.
@@NotPicturesMemories stop being pedantic... This wasn't an on screen correction. So you're misconstruing their pledge to push your agenda...
And let's talk about your agenda... You want them to stop in the middle of a video about gaming crap from Temu, to present a dissertation about a light meter? Come on. That doesn't even make sense.
I have a pair of those (I might have paid more) and... yeah, that measurement explains what I've seen with mine. Not bad, also not particularly great. But they are USB and can run off a powerbank.
@@TheEvox81 I don't want a dissertation, I just want them to show that they know why they're using a specific tool, instead of just being like "Erm... yeah".
hey LTT, apparently TEMU sells your purchase details on the black market. you might want to check that out or do a video on that.
All companies sell your data, bud
@@cdthedrummertrue
Making it sound like they're selling your card data, SSN and organs on the "black market".
No, there has been quite a few stories about credit card theft right after a temu purchase, that’s what OP is referring too.
what I meant is that they literally steal your credit card and use it@@cdthedrummer
12:18 ZOLO... I mean ZORO! What did they do to you? Is this inspired by everyone's reaction of him in live action One Piece.
I have that pad with the cats! I use it as a playmat for card games though, it always gets a great reaction at tables
For the PCIe NVME card, when mounting the drive the little silver "spacer" has a grove around the diameter that slides onto the drive mounting slot. Once slid into place, press the end of the drive down to the hole on the adapter card and fasten the screw from underneath the card.
that part made me cringe. linus is supposed to know more than me
I decided to buy the webcam. I got it a few hours after the video was released and the price had been raised to $16 USD. Decided it was still worth it at that price and pulled the trigger.
The unit I received looked the same but did not have the same quality as the one in the vid. Yes, it was full HD. But it had noticeable artifacts and more noise than expected.
EDIT: After more use, I've decided it's still not as good as the unit Linus got, but not as bad as my first impressions.
They probably recognized Linus and gave him "the good stuff" as a loss leader, just to rope in buyers.
was the room dark or some shit lol
@@RetroMaticGamerno it’s just that low quality products have also low quality assembly processes and their assemblied products differs very much even though it is the same product.
I dont think so@@st4ndby in this case it is the light. He has probably $1000 in lights in his room. Even better brands have a lot of artifacts without really good lighting.
Rule No.1 - NEVER EVER buy anything electronic off TEMU. It's either gonna be shit or totally f*cked within a couple of weeks.
Absolutely love that Temu lipstick was the opening Ad to this video! 🤣🤣😭
oooh, "no repetition to the pattern either" "all different & unique cats" ~ who could ask for anything more ~ one of the best interactive builds I've seen... Hard to get up off the floor, my sides hurt 😹
The one thing I don't like about these kind of setups is the studio lighting flooding the key lights. Though I get they're not the main focus of the video, it still would've been nice to see how it would look in a non-lit / ambient-only lit room. :)
They did right at the end of the video 24:24 . They kept a couple of the larger spread lights on to make it filmable, but turned off the ones right around him.
they did...
Given that they measured a CRI of 81 on the light meter, not good, they'll make you look pale and sickly, there would be better options for not much more
@@TimSheehan "Show, don't tell." Their meter meant very little to me since I've never seen one. And even later in the video they still had a back* light that most people aren't going to have.
Tbh, this should've been on the set for ShortCircuit -- the living room that is. It's more of an enclosed space and they could've light controlled it better to give the audience a reason why or why not to buy those key lights.
There was just too much light also hitting Linus' face from surface reflections to tell whether they were even on and shining on him.
Not the retired megumin wallpaper 😭 i keep seeing more weeb lore in LTT and it's fantastic
The headset and the camera are amazing I wasn't expecting it
Temu actually has some neat stuff, and they come in early too 1 week only.
Got a few good stuff like hats, sling bags. some Clothes that actually aren’t bad quality
12:15 zoro has the 2nd biggest chest size in OP for a reason 🤣
Zoro got lost and turned up in an LTT video.... what a time to be alive
Webcam, and headset mic definitely the biggest surprises lol.
At 4:20 or so about the plastic mounting bracket. There are plastics made with ESD safe materials but unless labeled it's probably not ESD made.
16:06 Now I need that background.

Honestly yeah, the lights, webcam and headset mic were pretty impressive for the cost.
becausse they pressure their manufacturers to sell for zero profit. Horrible company.
While back I bought a 60% mechanical keyboard with hot swappable switches for $12 US dollars off Amazon. I ended up removing all the switches and lube all the switches then done the holee mod on the stabilizers. Afterwards the keyboard ended up being nice with that 'Thock' sound most people goes for. How ever since then I bought a 75% mechanical keyboard TKL style which I also lubed the switches and did the holee mod on the stabilizers.

That mic quality was really good on the headset. Better than any entry level headset i've gotten in NA.
21:30 OMG how good is that mic?! thats crazy
I was so heartbroken when you showed the PC case was already rusting, it looks so cute!!
We need more cute PC cases in this world, but of good quality.
I agree, it's a very cute style but the quality is lacking :(
@@OverbiteGames I feel like the quality of the materials would also be really low if its already doing stuff like that. I do wonder if there is somthing similar that doesnt suck quality wise since i really like the design :(
DIY PC has a pretty solid case somewhat like this for $50. It's not anything crazy special but it's a good midrange case with led fans and its pink as well @@LunaWuna
I'm hoping the moment he starts gaming with it, it is engulfed in flames. That would make me EXTREMELY happy.
Thank you for showing this. Cracked me up and stil bursting from laughing.
"I am pretty sure that mousepad is made with other character prints" Yeah, let's keep it limited to that.
Temu being the Wish from Wish is the best description. Also filled with bullshit promises that they don't keep or semantics their way out of. Like even shadier and more shameful than Wish/Ali/Geek
Don’t they have a history of child labor and spyware in their apps.
@@OddRick3113yeah
From my own experience Temu has less fake products. Can't find 128TB SSDs for a few bucks
Shipping is also a lot faster to Europe
Okay so any time there was audio from the equipment vs the normal audio I had to disconnect my headphones because they made everything sound significantly better than it actually was 😂😂
Not even remotely a fan of pink as a color but that pink case looks great to me for some reason 😂
would completely non ironically enjoy using that one
Then you are remotely a fan of pink?
@@DeepfriedBeans4492 nope
It’s pretty concerning that there was no mention of Temus past mishandlings of customers personal information, especially with how many people have had payment information stolen after using Temu
yea because that’s this channels issue? plenty of sites have dumb stuff like this happen. He clearly stated it’s basically a worse wish. we all know it’s all Chinese products shipping overseas. hate seeing comments that act like the creator NEEDS to say something. that’s like saying you should issue a warning for buying stuff at Walmart😂💀 cause I’ve had stuff never show as well as having to change cards after.
Stuff like this is how PayPal and cryptocurrency originally started. Better middlemen than Visa/Mastercard between the seller and your bank account.
Oh yeah? You think only happens to Temu?
@@stravocadoatleast Walmart doesnt sell your info on the black market
I appreciate you spreading awareness over safety concerns using wish or temu.
But don't blame Linus for just doing what the people want.

You should redo this build, I did some looking, and it seems that you can actually buy a graphics card and motherboard from them now, should be real "fun". It would be interesting to see what a pc that is pure Temu stuff would be able to run.
i think the best part is actually the edited background that is the linus meme
the background is a piece of art! Linus Megumin, love it.
DEF NEED A 4K VERSION OF IT
I LOVE the seizure warnings. Clearly visible, seem to be always in the same place and the auditory cues are loud enough and easy to get used to. Great improvement.
is it really necessary in this case? the flashing lights take up like 5% of the screen. Maybe watching it in VR would have an effect on some people, but honestly it seemed like it was a bit overkill.
@@ecksdee7957 They've done those for a couple of years (I think 2019-2020) now, not a recent thing. Still, it's useful for epileptics or people with photosensitivity in general. Better safe than sorry.
I personally am not sensitive to flashing lights, but I appreciate that they take the time to edit in a warning for those who are
they are here for like a year if not more lol
@@dota2tournamentss did not personally notice them before, so I assume something about them must have changed recently. Either way, they’re nicely done and serve the purpose well.
Aigo made some really cool cases like the darkflash series
I got that case at the start of 2021 from aliexpress and I'm still using it, so nostalgic lmao
You should have made LInus do a 4 hour Twitch stream on a completely new channel in disguise with his new setup
Well considering the setup crashed in the menu of a game, I doubt he would have been able to do much more than mess with a text document, or web browsing, with this setup.
@@demikus all he needs is more ram n a better cpu fan
So many points just for a proper seizure warning! Thank you, some of us really do need it! ❤
I'm not even sure the first intention was to make real seizure warning rather than just trolling...
I swear like nobody ever cares thanks for validating that you indeed exist
To be fair; a proper seizure warning would show when the content that is likely to induce those with photosensitive epilepsy comes to an end instead of just saying seizure warning.
@@TheFatVeganOne But it did...They had a visual pop-up with a timer leading up to the start and it said there would be an audible chime when it was past the potential harmful content... There was an audible chime when they got it to stop flashing around 18:55. So yes it was a proper seizure warning, having a visual indication of it coming to the end... would be counterintuitive to a VISUAL issue ya know?
Imagine strapping someone to a chair that has seisures, taping their eyes open, and putting on seizure inducing videos. If only Hitler was born later...
4:31 the perfect rhyme i love linus
Fun little detail. All of their ads prior to this video pronounced it "Tee-mew." Since this video, the ads all pronounce it "Teh-mew," like Linus does here
@Linus, The annular rings present on mounting points you show at 4:13 are not necessarily attached to the ground net in a PCBA. Often in fact, they are not directly attached, but rather through a chassis ground - board ground connection. (in the form of some capacitors and resistors) But this is not a given, so particularly on "questionable" boards, I wouldn't immediately assume it.
The only thing I learned from this video is that I require that anime Linus wallpaper
The fact that not only were not all parts trash, but that both the camera and the headset were actually really decent for the price is insane.
I love how flimsy the monitor stand is, the webcam wobbling the whole time, haha.
He sounded so zesty when he was talking about the headphone stand lol.
OMG, that Zoro mousepad lol.
The cheap webcam is super impressive, and the speakers sounded acceptable considering what I expected after seeing the LEDs.
You know, I'm just happy that the only one of those products that I own is that ASUS TUF motherboard. Also, a lot of the products in the links in the pinned comment say that they're discontinued and one just 404ed.
The most surprised I am at is the sound from that headset?! Did you guys clean it up or is that raw because it sounds super decent.
21:25 Oh wow, the webcam is typical C920 quality at like 1/10 the price. That's a winner.
These are the videos I love from you guys, fun and playful and nothing too serious. You're all just having a good time messing around with tech and yet it's still informative
💯
an overkiller spotted?
Just you being negative @@SaadGolandaz
@@SaadGolandaz INDEED
I'm using 6 aigo fans with the included rgb controller and they work just fine and look cool with almost no noise so i'm happy with those :P
Did not expect to see Zoro in this video. Pleasantly surprised.
Some how Temu seems more of a sketch website than Wish 🤣
They're very aggressive right now to grow their market position.
It genuinely is much more sketchy. You’d have to be either extremely unintelligent, or extremely broke to even bother trying to purchase anything from them. Most products are straight up scams, and the rest are just trash
To me Wish is more of portal for anyone to sell without a care in the world, TEMU seems more like a Chinese Amazon for America.
TEMU's clothing is better than Wish; it actually has some resemblance to the pictures, and they accurately describe the sizes (which may be very different from US sizes, always check the size chart for each item). TEMU isn't as good at tech; as we can see in this video, it's buyer beware territory, a lot of the stuff is either poor value or just plain bad.
Also, I would not give them a real credit card number. Use a prepaid card or a virtual card from your card issuer.
@@tonysoflachinese amazon for america is called aliexpress. And at least aliexpress doesnt sell your payment info
Those M.2 to PCIe Adapters actually work pretty well. If you are on an older platform they might be worth it.
I use them daily. I have no problems
I have a Sabrent one in my PC with a 2tb 980 for games.
Watch out, you can not boot from them probably. Just data disks
I just hit peak abuse of tech with one, by plugging an M.2 drive (cycled out of an old build) into my old win Xp machine. It wont boot off it, as the board wont support a boot cycle that isnt off an EDI chain, but it loads Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 plenty fast. And a 250G drive is a lot of space for Win Xp era programs.
The headset mic actually sounds natural(ish) unlike 99.99999% of headphone mics. Also that webcam kinda seems the same if not better than a c920 lol
