01:30 – Arby: “@Steve Burke #askgn-questions With the GPP gone now do you think board partners like ASUS will revert back to their original branding like ROG Strix for AMD cards? Or do you think the damage is done and Nvidia has still won?”
09:29 - Talpss's Recreational Nukes: “@Steve Burke Kyle from HardOCP said that his website is basically done and over thanks to his journalism on the GPP. By running stories that put Nvidia in a harmful light, do you think the impact on GN will be as severe or will GN fare better because GN didn't break the story?”
17:19 – BuffMcLargeHuge: “Second attempt Hey, Steve, if one were to build a streaming pc capable of outputting 2 1080p60 streams with reasonable bitrate settings at the same time, how many cpu cores would be necessary? I was planning on using a Threadripper 1950X (16 core, 32 thread) for such a task, but I'm not sure if that's enough cores, or if its overkill.”
19:35 - Mike Hlodwig: “How do you feel about googles new Sponsor button? its now in beta for non gaming channels. it seems to be similar to twitch, for $5 a month you support your favorite channel and in return you get "perks" like exclusive badges, emojis for live streams and access to sponsor only posts under the community tab. Do you think this is possible solution for channels that are being demonetized? is this something you would considered doing? #AskGN”
24:22 – Syraxal: “@Steve Burke I have been told that when Lapping a CPU to do it on a horizontal glass surface (i.e glass coffee table) as this would be more 'smooth' than an ordinary bench top or say a #GNModmat I only ask this as when watching your lapping video, you stated that you could "...see copper coming through on the edges..." this would be indicative of uneven pressure on / around the corners of the IHS or where the bottom surface has been able to be pushed into (i.e the 'spongy' #GNModmat). Would an unevenly lapped surface lead to worse thermals as there would be potentially more filler needed around these spots?”
26:56 - Scooby Dooby: “@Steve Burke What's your opinion on how certain consumers anthropomorphize multi national corporations like Intel, AMD, and Nvidia? E.G. using terms like "good" & "evil". Personally, it boggles my mind that consumers would use any variables other than price/performance/use case to attribute value judgements to products sold by corporate entities that categorically aren't human and legally are beholden to their investors first and foremost.... :thinking:”
