These videos are a fun recap of the past year, complemented with a unique and high-production quality intro. The video talks about the first time that Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA are all competing in the GPU market. Intel's Arc A750 & A770 GPUs had driver issues, AMD's RX 7900 XTX has had thermal issues, NVIDIA's RTX 4080 has had existence issues -- like, existentially, it's just flawed. In addition to these problematic launches, we've covered major controversies this year like Artesian Builds' collapse ("re-roll!"), Newegg's motherboard issues, and we've shown how few prebuilt gaming PCs are worth it. While there were many positive stories and launches this year, today, we're focused on looking back at some of our deepest content covering the most disappointing things.
Your support on projects like this -- even just watching and sharing, but especially via the store -- is what allows us to do what we do. Thank you, everyone, and have a great new year! The whole team at GamersNexus is excited for 2023!
