    I think they priced it higher on purpose. I mean they could literally penetrate the market and still have a decent margin. But if they would do so, they would piss off a LOT of companies. But it is still smart what they are doing. They are offering a standard system with standard pricing without pissing off their large customers. Key here is that they are producing the same products everyone else does but simply with a higher margin. Neither consumers nor their large customers will notice any difference, only corsair does, with better profit margins. Of course competitors aren't something to be happy about from a companies position, but it could be far worse.

      The human penis is certainly among the finest in the animal kingdom. It is generally of robust, satisfying proportion, features subtle ribbing that provides sturdiness and enhanced sensation, has smooth, sliding skin which reduces friction and provides excellent mouthfeel, and is visually interesting with its many veins, skin folds, and a glans with a shape that suggests sleekness and a color that changes to demonstrate the intensity of lust.
      However, it is certainly not the best. It is firmly in third place.
      In first obviously comes the horse. I won't go into great detail on horse cocks, as they are already quite popular even with the non-zoophilic general public. The size, the shape, and the power of the animal a horse cock is attached to are all part of a sexual mystique that has been well explored in many cultures throughout history.
      There is one other kind of animal, however, that has us solidly beat, even though it has no such following. I speak of the spectacular, over-the-top sensuality of the amazing "red rocket" possessed by canines. We ignore this one, perhaps, because dogs are generally much closer to the majority of us than horses. There is no reason to romanticize the mundane, as we do for the equine penis, and we are often quite scared of our dogs' sexuality, since we do have to live with them instead of just looking at them in a field we're driving by. By acknowledging that it's at all there, we are forced to deal with it in a fashion other than having the vet remove it, and we are usually more worried about what that means for us than what it means for them.
      Nonetheless, dog penises are wonderful, a fact which deserves to be recognized even if the vast majority of us will never experience one firsthand.
      The first thing that anyone will notice about a dog's erection is the color. "Florid" is the best word I can think of to describe this beautiful display. From angry, fire engine red, through every possible shade of pink, with some extraordinary specimens additionally featuring deep purple and glistening white, an erect dog's penis rewards the viewer's eyes with the full spectrum of colors that our culture associates with the urgent desire of lust. As it comes out of its sheath, its palette seems to beg to return to a warm and cozy place inside the body of another.
      Its form and functionality are similarly titillating. The pointed, very slightly flared tip allows for easy entry without being completely smooth, and while perhaps not as visually exciting as the glans of a human, certainly gets the job done comfortably and efficiently. The size when fully erect tends to be very impressive in proportion to its owner, often being much thicker and somewhat longer than the average human penis. However, most people aren't fully aware of that, because of another handy trick the canine dick can perform.
      When the action begins, it's much smaller. Very thin, and a bit shorter. Once it's in, or played with sufficiently, it inflates to its full, throbbing size, allowing for the receptive partner to adjust more comfortably. No inflatable dildo I've ever seen has such a wide range of widths as does our best friends' tackle. They usually just seem to start at "too big" and get "slightly bigger." A dog's penis is much more friendly, allowing even the novice to enjoyably accommodate something really fat and juicy.
      And juicy it certainly is! One of the best things about wolf wang is the precum. There is so much! And unlike ours, which merely drools when we get close to the end, theirs begins squirting almost constantly, nearly as soon as the fun begins. The result is a satisfyingly messy taste sensation that is truly without compare. On the other end, this also serves a practical purpose, contributing greatly to the fact that a dog penis is self-lubricating, a trait I'm sure we've all wished we could share at some point.
      Of course, no discussion of dog dicks would be complete without a mention of the crown jewel, the one thing that most strikingly sets them apart from us: the bulbus glandis. Ranging in size from a rather small plum to near that of a softball, the swollen base of a canine's cock is both an invitation and a challenge. Do you want to take the knot? Can you? Once you have, of course, there is the dizzying feeling of being dominated, not by your partner, but by your own desires. Trapped there on the floor for up to twenty minutes, one must simply wait and enjoy the feeling of being so consumed with lustful passion that the fear and shame of being caught seem immaterial. When you are tied, it is inescapable that a part of your identity is firmly outside of the mainstream's comfort zone. A piece of your soul is there, wrapped tightly around that dog's twitching, squirting dick just as surely as your pussy or ass is.
      The thing that draws many to such interests is the fact that this is a perfectly symbolic microcosm for all of our sexuality. In our culture, even purely vanilla sex is often made to feel "naughty." The most banal and benign aspects of sexuality are couched in terms that make us feel a little wrong to want it, even in the strictly defined contexts where it's not supposed to be. In that moment when you accept the knot, and make yourself incapable of defense against whatever might occur should your door suddenly open, you have decided that you're not going to play that game anymore. The world may say you're a filthy slut; you're happy to be one, if that means enjoying yourself to the fullest with your most loyal companion.
      Overall, it is simply a fact that your dog's dick is better than yours in nearly every way that matters. It's alright to feel a little jealous, but I think it would be nice if we as a culture could recognize this more openly, similarly to how we do for horses. Happiness in this strange and beautiful world in which we live lies in fully appreciating all of nature's marvels, and nature has certainly made the canine penis marvelous.

    I like this. It gives you an entire build, that is 100% able to be modified/upgraded for only $300 dollars above MSRP. For example, my very first gaming PC was bought and built at a TigerDirect/NewEgg store location near my town. It was $250 for complete installation, 2-year warranty, and a packet of tips and tricks to getting started. The more we see options like this, the more competition we, as consumers, will see in this niche area of the market.
    Yeah, it's not as good $ to performance as if you had built it yourself! OBVIOUSLY! But, this isn't pointed towards people who can, know how to, or want to build their own system. And to be honest, if this was an option the first time I bought a computer I would have jumped on it in a heartbeat.

    I think they put a non overclockable processor in that build for these two reasons:
    1) They offer a 2-year warranty. If the consumer cant overclock or kill one of the components that is arguably one of the most expensive parts then Corsair wont lose a lot of money from an RMA
    2) With the budget/low cost B360 Motherboard route they chose, probably won't be able to handle much heat/overclocking. Dead mobo = customer RMA = More lost money for Corsair.
    Yes I do understand that with a AIO that has a 240mm radiator keeping it cool would give the user potential to overclock and it be fairly stable. However by allowing it to not be an issue, and keeping most of the components at a very reasonable temperature, that means a whole lot less consumer RMAs. The only issue I think they may have is when someone decides to ether add more RAM or just open the case in general to tinker with parts. Like an xbox I wonder if they will have stickers near the panels edges that say "if seal is broken warranty is void"? I also hope they keep a list of serial numbers from each part on file for those shysters who like to replace good parts with the defective ones. Tell me what you all think!

    Not hating on LTT or their sponsor Massdrop (Which actually has great products), but the Vast sucks. I'm sorry but it just does. When it first launched and was reviewed the models they sent to reviewers were perfect. I got mine because of Jayz review. But check out the comments from customers that purchased it. Terrible light bleeding, death just beyond warranty period, massive tearing if you don't have a Freensync compatible card, etc.. The list goes on. I myself got one because of the amazing price. 550$ for a 1440p ultrawide?? Yes please! But my first one came DOA. After waiting over a month for a replacement my second one had such terrible backlight bleed it was impossible to play games with dark scenes. It was comically bad. Maybe they have fixed this problem in their newer models but from my experience I would stay away.

      Not to mention you get most of the performance of the 8700k, but without the K premium. I would assume they get a good deal on the tray CPUs because 8700ks probably outsell 8700ss in the consumer market.

      @@thatafknoob7813 Stock vs Stock vs stock all 3 are quite close. That is, if the motherboard allows *maintaining* all-core turbo boosting that exceeds TDP which most will *and* the CPU cooler can handle it. So even 8700 is sort of OC'd because it doesn't operate within its specified TDP. An 8700K OC'd above its max all-core turbo clocks is a different story of course. But we're comparing Stock vs Stock here.
      A liquid cooled on an 8700 is obviously just for the looks, but 8700 + $20 cooler + B360 or cheap Z370 motherboard isn't such a bad deal, especially for people who won't overclock.
      Potentially a better deal than 8600K + expensive cooler + expensive MBO since many people buy that and then don't overclock it.

      the 8600k only turbos to 4.3 GHz on 2 cores, and down to 4.1 GHz on all 6, so again, the 8700 is superior even before Hyperthreading. People don't give the non K sku i7s enough credit. Throw a good cooler on them, and just let them turbo away. No need for OCing because by the time you absolutely need to OC, you are better off replacing the CPU anyways.

    I feel that systems like this will be the future. We will gradually see the market lean toward systems like this because so many of the "New" PC gamers want to just be able to buy a system and be done with it. They don't know how to build one, they don't care. An artifact of the dying console generation. And yes, consoles are on the way out. Every "cool" kid wants a PC, not a console. I've been witnessing this transition over the last few years. I think it is happening in part because of the pro-PC media out there. And to be honest, it is completely validated. Why buy a bazillion consoles when a PC can do it all, if you have enough power. More elusive, what if your PC can do more than any console could ever do? It's heroin for gamers. A PC is the ultimate fix. A whole new world of mods and advanced options become available if you move from consoles to PC. And naturally, if one platform offers more, everyone wants to be on "that" platform.

    The Corsair Vengeance’ strongest selling point is it’s attraction to us, we those pc enthusiasts who exist within every family. Not as a product I myself will use, but as an answer when asked “Can you build me a computer?” by a relative. Might just send them a link to the Corsair Vengeance knowing it contains parts that I would buy; in a computer that I won’t have to build or support. I really do like that.

      A lot of them do the shocked face to make it seem like “the stuff you will see is incredible!!!!!”

      The reason behind that is one of the reasons why he is a succesful youtuber and you are not, believe it or not.

    I actually like the Vengeance model; that nice rainbow on black is a good touch.

    Tell me whatever you want, but name Corsair means quality and their love for their job. Just sent 110i gtx for rma and after 4 years of use got full refund in money as this cooler is not produced anymore. So ordered new iCue 465 case and h150i pro cooler to support manufacturer as he has never let me down, even when their sw was conflicting with others, now they fixed everything and all work like a charm and even not crashing applications as other sw like hw monitor etc.
    Keep up the good work Corsair and don't pay attention to Linus, he is just randomly bullshitting not understanding that some are earning for living working, not just taking money from sponsors for their golden mouth :-)

    The non overclockable cpu is probably how they keep the warranty, less points of failure = less repairs

    Some of the smaller companies see a few complaints on the construction or lack of. And then parts change without notice. Personally never had an issue with Dell myself. Have had issues with Hp. My cx750 never quit for almost 10 years on I7's . Just felt out of good practice I should replace it finally.
