Hey, they made the joke...besides I live in Belize, CA. It's possible to know this stuff.

Those tariffs only went into effect in early July. So almost 6 weeks ago (July 6th). CaseLabs did NOT go bankrupt in just 6 weeks due to the tariffs alone. They were already struggling and dying. This was just a nail in the coffin.
B-but the news told me that Trump is destroying the world's economy by starting a trade war! The USA is the ONLY country that has these kinds of tariffs on imports! /s
Matthew Bartlett it's all about Trump bashing the morons can't add up the facts as you clearly could
You know what, you're right. I'm actually going to dislike the video because of this. no/s
This 1000000000x over
I think he knows that as he is calling BS on the tariffs being the problem. Any case they make can be made with the same quality of materials not subject to tariffs. It should be obvious is the "large account" that defaulted as the real problem. One account was given way too much credit and the default made paying bills impossible. This is not called tariffs it is called shitty business practices.
CaseLabs is dead because normal people cant afford 750 - 1000 dollar cases. Yeah, they are friggin sweet. But when i'm ready to blow 4 grand on my next PC. I'm not throwing 1/4 my budget on the case. No matter how diggity dank.
I'm going to get on my knees and give it to nvidia. Just like everyone else.
Thats still too smart. You should be spend at least half of your budget on Apple products.
Will it still be the same story if you had, say, 20k to blow? There's only so far you can go with performance and those extremely pricey enthusiast builds focus more on aesthetics, perhaps more so as the price goes up. If you already got the best performing hardware and still had like 5k left, wouldn't spending that on a dank case, mods and cool loonking custom watercooling make sense?
@@jerry1460
In that case...no pun intended, id call a bunch of friends, clear a weekend with em, and buy 1k worth of booze, get shitfaced three days straight, call in sick Monday, and then proceed to blow the remaining 4k on a new wardrobe or, maybe some peripherals.
Then again, I am a functionalist at heart, and thus, id rather find a tower with good airflow, that looks fucking disgusting, so in case someone breaks into my house, they will look at the desktop and leave it alone, especially if its cost me 15k
That's 1/4 of your budget? Damn dude. The lower end of that spectrum was half of my budget.
Well lets all hope and pray that vega VII isint garbage... although it may be.. who knows until it gets released.
In the early to mid 2000s we had the ghz race and it ended with intel scoring all the 2010s. Now in the 2020s we’re going to have the core race, and AMD has a chance of gaining the 2030s.
evandarkfire Do you think we will get a competitor like cyrix again. Maybe IBM or Ti will make their own processors for consumers again.
well yes and no, problem is gaming and general desktop computing tasks still have major bottlenecks for proper multi-threading, making high single core instructions per second the ideal solution still.
I wish we were still racing for GHz, i don't need more than 4 core 8 threads for basically anything i do on a PC, but i'd very much like more single core performance. I guess we're hitting the limits of process shrinks though, so unless games figure out how to distribute their workloads over multiple cores, we're pretty much at a plateau. Because clock speed isn't about to increase any time soon. I wonder if i'll see 6GHz in my lifetime.
More cores takes more power though, while process shrinks allow for faster clock speeds without producing more heat or using more power, so sadly this is about where mobile chips plateau as well, and that sucks..
AS PC Master Trends says, AMD will never be winning over gamers since games by their core design will never run well with many threads so Intel will probably keep that market firmly under control and they will probably keep owning the server side due to their much lower power efficiency but it is likely that AMD could corner the rendering and workstation market
Back when 450w was a high end PSU.
Given the focus on enterprise hardware and powe efficiency, it kind of feels like a shame its not a cooling game anymore on the consumer end.

I mean, I got ~150 tabs and Chromium is only taking ~7.5GB of RAM; mostly RUclips (+100MB/tab). 32GB is more than enough, more RAM could put you in a configuration what increases Latency, so you'd see a drop in performance.

Ultimately, the tariffs didn't kill Caselabs. They obviously didn't help them, but the large defaulted account is really what did them in. At the end of the day, I'm going to miss CaseLabs, but I think it's a convenient story to roll with. A 10-25% tariff won't amount to an ~80% increase in price, and CaseLabs was already a niche manufacturer.
A case modder from a forum I go to has stated that he has known them well enough to say the company had some internal problems at least a year before making the official announcement. Additionally, they have been piling up on delays with processing orders for their customers for all that time.
the amount of metel in a case = less than $5. its a non issue in the price.
The cost of making a finished case is much more than the cost of the bare metal in it...
@@ccricers aluminium is $2000 per tonne. There would be no more than 10kg in a case, so a 25%tarriff would of added no more than couple of dollars at most onto the cost
ccricers Correct, but the other costs aren't affected by the tariffs. That's his point. The extra cost that IS caused by tariffs is tiny, so they have no good reason to blame tariffs.
I love how you integrate your ads into your vids, this way I don't have to skip it, because I actually enjoy how your voice turns into this sales guy's voice :D
RIP Caselabs. Very very sad day for custom PC builders everywhere.

*Nintendo is fighting a lost cause against emulations.*
The fact(or myth) that they download a rom from the site to resell it to the audience
Nintendo is the equivalent of Apple for gaming. Both are rubbish patent trolls selling inferior products at exorbitant price
They don't offer virtual console, but hackers offer retroarch for your switch if you jail break your switch
Userguyok They would if they make a good service where they sell the games and allow it to be emulated. Sega does a good job on steam, they ahve their official emulator for their sonic games for example, but the rom files can be used with any emulator you like. Nintendo is abselout garbage when it comes to supporting their older games. some people have bhought the same overpriced NES games multiple times on wii, DS, 3DS and wiiu, and they still dont carry over to switch and only 3 games a month will be dripfed to consumers through their online pass. they could earn tons of money by making a netflix like service but for old games, yet they rather release as few games as possible and then reset it when a new console arrives
@userguyok Those are decade-old games with shitty graphics. Why would any major gaming company cares about them in 2018?

Yes, but which X399 board has that many PCIe slots? I mean, would you really like to switch and extend the PCIe with still enough bandwidth if that is even possible? It is not like you can just use USB 3.1 risers used for mining because they suck for gaming. Also, rip (no pun intended) those gamers with CPU cores in the "new" indirect modules. There a plenty of benchmarks showing what gaming on just some of those looks like, e. g.: ruclips.net/video/QI9sMfWmCsk/видео.htmlm14s
Yes, some games break with that many threads available but that cannot explain this fully.

The Tariffs did NOT kill CaseLabs. Their MATERIAL costs were MINIMAL compared to the price of their cases. I work in the material cost realm, and their heaviest (shipped) case is 25 Pounds. Even at a 50% scrap rate on the materials during manufacturing, this means they needed 50 pounds of steel to start. This means that case had about $25 in steel (and that's buying at low volumes and a pretty high quality steel).
The Tariffs would have added $7.50 to their raw material prices...which could have easily been put into the price of their case. The price would have gone from OMFG Expensive to OMFG+$7.50 Expensive.
Sorry, but it wasn't the Tariffs...it was mis-management...Too bad, I liked their cases...couldn't afford one, but I always wanted an SMA8
lol
Is steel the only thing their cases consist of? If no, was all of their materials imported from China? Asking for a friend..
I kinda agree. They also mentioned the default of a large account, which would probably also have been a factor. I think the media picks up on the trade angle because it brings bigger headlines especially from people who hate Trump and think he is mismanaging the country. It gives them the evidence that they want to see, so they focus on the trade reason and then ignore the other reasons.
Pretty much this. I work in sheet metal manufacturing and very rarely do we ever worry about steel prices. We have made products for our customers that amount to about $60 in total manufacturing cost and retail at $400+. Within that $60, only about $10-15 are for steel, the rest goes to screws, nuts, plastics and labor.
Caselabs products are expensive due to US labor costs and niche approach, their business model was fragile to begin with, and material costs only played a very tiny role in their downfall. I don't think people buying their custom $300 cases would mind a well justified $10 increase. It's only when you make tens of thousands of them that $10 becomes a big deal.
Aluminum, Plastic, Steel. BTW: The Tarrifs were on SHEET goods and rough form goods. What this means is that if CaseLabs was importing pre-formed items for their cases they wouldn't have been affected in the first round of of this. If they were buying sheet goods from China (Coil Stock, plate, etc.) then yes. they would have been affected. The issue is still the fact that their cases were all of $30 or so in material cost. Everything after that was processing (labor, overhead, SG&A, ED&T, Profit). This brings me back to my SMA8 analysis. 25 pound case...at $1/lb for steel (about 2.5 times the real cost) the material costs were $50 (due to scrap produced during the manufacture of said case)...the Tariffs added $12.50 to their material costs (excluding their payback for selling their scrap...which they better have been doing).
The failure was not due to tariffs...they sold a premium case at a premium price. Their problem was losing a big contract and not being able to recover from that...

To those who think that tariffs don't work, look at China's booming economy as proof. Seeing as the U.S. is very resource rich, tariffs and less government regulation will only help us in the long run. To those who say that it destroys the environment to go after those resources, and that we should continue to import from China, do you not care about China's environment or the conditions in which the government imposes on their working class people?

C'mon this is a hard clickbait title. Tariffs were _far_ from the reason they died.
Well, in defense of Linus, it *is* what they claimed was the reason. Granted it's sort of like when politicians claim they're stepping down to "spend more time with the family" rather than for whatever the real reason is.
We can either talk about information the company actually provided themselves as a primary source, or we can speculate to play down effects of the tariffs. :thinking:
j k We don't have to speculate. 1 The company themselves said "Also a big account defaulted". 2 We know what the tariffs are and how long they've been in place. There's no way the tariffs are even close to the main cause. Not only would it not increase costs much, but it hasn't been anywhere near long enough to kill a company that wasn't already on its deathbed. What's it been a month and a half? The tariffs would have to be ridiculously high to kill any established business that quick. The only thing to speculate on is "What _actually_ put them in this situation?".
SlowFox
I highly doubt that the company has a political reason to blame the tariffs. My first suspicion is that they are trying to direct attention from something else that they really don't want the public to know about.
It is Linus duty as a public figure that has the ear of millions to make sure that Trump is properly vilified so what happened last time never happens again.
*Tech Daddy* Doing *Tech News* Today.
😂
oh wow
"But it's only 25% on a $10 case so it's $12.50" yeah but when you have high volume manufacturers that's an extra 25% on EVERY product on EVERY material. Taking into account marketing, manufacturing, employee pay, research and development that's a big hit. Yes, company's are allowed to and need to make money to research new products and to reinvest and believe it or not not every company keeps all that money. A LOT of businesses invest in infrastructure or other projects for the PUBLIC that doesn't ever get coverage (or it's very little) so there is that too.

F case labs lol
A couple years ago I purchased a CaseLabs TX10D and figured it would be the last case I would ever need. But I assumed that I could buy any additional brackets and mounts as needed.
But instead I now have an expensive case that at some point may become irrelevant due to new hardware that I want but cant fit without access to the additional case components that I would need.
This is a very dark day indeed.
And while the tariffs alone may not have been responsible, they most certainly would have led to the situation of things getting bad enough that they had to close before they could have found a solution.
That’s a bald face lie. They would have only had to pay a small percentage more for steel here in the US. In this case I bet their using it as a look over here while we quietly shut down for other reasons card. Old steel mills have opened all over the us to help with demand and I know the prices here in MS are not outrageous like the news claims them to be. “Source inside one of the biggest steel companies in the US”
listen to the video again. He said," They "COULD" could have been a victim. He placed emphasis on the COULD. A lie would have been if he said something like, " they WHERE a victim of the tariffs".
Darin Morgan hey moron, case labs made a statement claim they were paying as high as 80% more for steel. They said it played a major role. Linus might have played the maybe card but caselabs straight out lied since I know for a fact US steel has not gone up that much. They are lies just like I said
Darin Morgan pause the vid at 1:58 and read case labs statement
@Darin Morgan. He's saying that CaseLabs made a bald faced lie. Not Linus. (And I agree with him, steel was NOT what closed them. No way in hell)
What closed them was that someone who promised to buy a whole bunch of cases for a massive sum of money suddenly decided not to, and then CaseLabs didn't have money. That's it: "A large account defaulted". Many people don't seem to realize how close many of these craft-type startups run, and that's without paying large wages or anything either.

Mismanagement, poor financial/credit control and (recently) poor customer service were bigger factors than the tariff increase. So many customers cancelled orders due to the promised 8 week lead time being utter bullshit and not receiving any responses from customer service, and still having no product delivered 12 weeks later. OCN is awash with complaints about Caselabs in 2018.

That had way more to do with their closing their doors than the tariffs. When you can't figure that out, it is a miracle Linus Tech Tips is a successful business. The only way it is, is if someone else is running it for you when you will push this BS.
When you can't figure out that Linus is quoting the company's statement as well as citing other sources, it's a miracle that you can still think of yourself as a successful troll.
linus is the only troll here
did you just decide to ignore that he's literally reading the article or are you really this dense
cyborg7th He was quoting an article. If you can call it that. Not a press release. Also, I am sure there were several to choose from. Yet, he chose that one. Go figure. I wasn't trolling. I was saying that in making the choice to use this article he was pushing fake news. Why? Because the business was lying out their collective asses to try to cover up they were failure. Oh, it wasn't our fault. It was that mean Trump. When talking about the business failing, there was no need to help them blame Trump's tariffs, considering they did not effect the market Case Labs was in.
So, how about you stop white knighting for Linus, considering what I am saying has merit.
Constitutionalist Libertarian how do steel and aluminum tariffs (there's already documented cases of people being laid off because of them) not effect them at all lol
I couldn't find any brietbart or daily mail reports on caselabs, what sources do you want him to use that prove you right exactly?
I work in manufacturing, the tariffs are likely not the main cause of their failure. It is likely a market shift or something along those lines. If the tariffs shut a business down, they were doing something else along the line. It's sad to see them go.
Riley and Linus share T-shirts without a #NoHomo? Ew, sweat rash much?
More than one shirt can look like that. In fact, they sold replicas of Linus's handiwork. Also, did you know there exists an invention: A machine that washes clothes? Some research for you: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washing_machine
To all the people going: "It couldn't be the tariffs, they couldn't act that fast!" you seem to be forgetting that the fallout of those same tariffs necessitated a 12 billion dollar relief package to farmers, and that was in July. I know a lot of people want to make excuses for the president, because they support him, but you're not children. You know nothing is perfect.

i love how concord was grounded 15 years ago and is still the pinnacle of air travel.
The Tariffs had nothing to do with case labs shut down. They have only been in effect for a month. If one month of tariffs was enough to cause them to go bankrupt then the problem was poor management. I did receive an email from caselabs telling me that they may be selling their stock to another company that will sell it off.
Can we give it up to the writer for the sick Concorde burn? Cause that was savage!
For those hysterics, Caselab actually cited *3* reason why they shut down.
This always happens with niche suppliers. They are very susceptible to downturns in the economy.
This is a lot like Harley Davidson blaming the tariffs for the reason they are moving out of the US even though they started building the plant over a year ago. The tariffs weren't the problem, it sounds like they just lost their biggest customer.
Gee, who would have thought artificially raising prices on materials would put companies out of business.... Definitely not the US government
The "can you hear me now guy" works for Sprint now anyway.
A high end, niche market brand, with presumably high margins blames a 25% increase in pricing for steel, only ONE of the raw materials for it´s demise.... That´s poor management..

The flawed reasoning behind Spotify is that some of us don't like ads in ANY way shape or form.
Blame Trump for the Prices increases and these stupid tariffs. If you think Chinese goods are bad and low quality then why is Apple is over there. Your iphones an Mobos, RTX 2080s, etc are made there. But wait their is more. You Medication is made in India and China.
10-1-2018 adds another 10 percent on your tech items. I was in Microcenter after they closed for the day and i saw them increases the prices on there existing Stock. Don't try to buy thru Canada - Thank Trump for F-in that up for the Canadians. How do u like us now Canada ?
We the customers are the next victims. Come january 1 2019 - another 15 percent or more will be added. China won't lose. We will. Act like Sheep and you will treated like one.
Hopefully sometime in the future this Tariff crap will be rolled back. Don't blame China, Blame Corporate America for off-shoring our products and Jobs overseas.
If US companies took advantage of these tariffs and sold metal for cheaper than their normal prices they would make a metric shed load.

The "mole people" part instantly made me think of Johnny Test!
Does the demise of Caselabs mean that henceforth, custom-built gaming PCs will, just like in the past, be contained in dull grey boxes?
CaseLabs can't afford to buy US steel and aluminium? Or get supplies from the EU? Why do companies rely on China for 100% of their supplies? And even if the products get slightly more expensive by switching to EU or US supplies, I don't think they would loose many customers, since CaseLabs was reliant on brand loyalty even before, as their cases are quite expensive and not mainsteam. Blaming it all basically on tariffs is just a weak excuse. If cases and parts get 10% more expensive due to tariffs and rising prices (which can also happen regardless of tariffs) I don't think it would matter too much. Something else at CaseLabs failed horribly...
The prices increased as supply was reduced and prices increased, so no matter who or where the supplier was, and remember they were not likely buying a direct raw material, so they probably had a mix, so there costs increased overall.
Selling 4 cases a year might have been the problem.

This is a lie. The ceo said they just lost a major account before the tariffs. They lost that account to a Chinese company that does not seem concerned with the tariff.

CaseLabs failed because their cases were ugly and expensive. Tariffs had next to nothing to do with the death of the company.

I have no problems with the tariffs. The US needs to get off cheap China products. Plenty of other non-Communism country which business can do business.
I consider performance-per-core more important than the amount of cores. Especially for gaming.
Anyone going bankrupt over the trade tariffs were already teetering over the edge for a while.
Ads really serve no purpose if no one is interested in them. I skip almost all ads that I can skip. But I have also been known to watch 20 minute commercials that have high production value, because they were genuinely entertaining. The vast majority of ads are trying to sell me products I'm not the slightest bit interested in. In fact, I honestly can't remember the last time I was forced to watch a relevant ad. And some ads make the companies seem so scary that I would absolutely never use them. So I think Spotify's idea is actually a good one. Let's see advertisers to work for their revenue, rather than work on the premise that just displaying the same brand over and over will actually convince people to buy the product! Reviews like those done by LTT do far more to convince me to buy or not buy a product or brand.
There isn't a single ad in the world that is relevant to me. I think RUclips wants me to buy a car.. Cause that's the only ads I seem to get these days.. and I don't watch car stuff or even have a license..
That Verizon joke falls flat on two fronts. The "Can You Hear me Now" guy is shilling for Sprint now.
They went out of business because of shitty management and business practices. Talk to anyone who was close to CaseLabs.
0:55 - This chart makes me sad. My FX-8370 is at the very bottom of the chart. :(
Bethesda not understand that they are basically rewarding griefer behavior by giving them attention and making them infamous.
Not sure if someone mentioned this because i just now saw this video, but the "can you hear me now" guy works with sprint now
LMFAO i love your ads. Let me at that thread ripper! >.> and it's cooler.
The Verizon can you hear me now guy is a Benedict Arnold and works for Sprint now
It has to do with charging ENTIRELY too damn much money for a case. They did it to themselves.
