Corporate Espionage in PC Hardware?

01:33 - Ggchb Gig ghb: “Steve how much dose corporate spying/personnel buying happen in the hardware world? Can a struggling fab/manufacturer just hire someone from a successful one and get all the secret techniques?”

Why Do Boards Still Have COM Ports?

05:41 – Qlum: “Why do cheaper motherboards often include outdated connectors long gone from their more expensive counterparts. For example the Asrock A320M-DGS a bottom of the barrel motherboard has a com and a print port. […] It clearly costs money to solder the connector yet it is only included in the lower margin cheaper motherboard.”

Too Many Fans Makes Cooling Worse?

07:22 - Coby Rickey: “Can too many case fans actually make your pc cooling worse?”

Downsides of Moving?

09:37 – NoryYesterday: “#askgn-questions What is the one downside of moving out of the GN Lair and into a commercial office? (Outside of paying a lease, and moving)”

Are You Honest About Not Being Under NDA?

10:58 – David: “There have been a few videos where you said you were specifically not under any NDA, and Linus has also said that in a few instances. Of course you can only speak for yourself, but are you actually honest about that then (not calling you a liar, just because of the whole NDA) or would you say that exactly because the NDA doesn't allow you to talk about it? I know, complicated question, or my language just sucks.”

NVIDIA GTX vs. RTX Language?

12:02 – Modzy : “#askgn-questions What do you think about Nvidia finally changing the GTX branding on select new models of GPU's to "Geforce RTX". I feel we have been stuck on the "Geforce GTX" band wagon for so long that im actually really glad they are finally changing things up again. And as a note, i really do hope they at some point re-start their numbering so we dont end up with 5 digit skews one day. Also, hope they bring back the "Ultra" branding one day.”

14:29 - Demonmit1: “#askgn-questions @Steve Burke what is your thoughts on the recent CaseLabs announcement that they are closing permanently?”
