    Could you imagine what a scrapyard wars would be like in 2021? Dealing with all the scalpers, miners, chip shortages and older generation parts being sold for a higher price due to increasing demand? It would be an actual scrapyard war fighting over the parts. I'm hoping they do another one with a budget of like $500 to truly test their bargain finding skills.

    I don't think Linus should've negotiated with a fan of his.
    Personally, I would be willing to give away a graphics card if necessary to get him to meet up with me. A fan would easily allow himself to be talked down in price for the thrill of meeting a RUclips celebrity, thereby making it easier on Linus to complete the challenge.

    • @strawberrymelly
      @strawberrymelly 9 лет назад +88

      Haha, I agree but I think it made the video a lot more amusing anyway. He did try and advise the person to give him the price he would give to anyone else buying. And also, I think Slick would be in the same position too if he happened to bump into a fan, wouldn't he? He's pretty much the Robin in this duo and Linus is Batman. Haha probably more appropriate if it was the other way around, but oh well. :P

    • @derpytw
      @derpytw 8 лет назад +19

      This is because often places wont accept 50's or 100s. Also in canada, banjs ask "in 100, 50s or 20's" linus most likely asked for 20's because when talking to random people, they might not have change for 100.

      A low end CPU wouldn't get very high OC without getting unstable anyway. Maybe I'm just too used to having my PC in a cold enviromenet but; I think water cooling for a real low-end price-performance build is bad decision making.

    This is honestly one of my favorite videos/series you guys ever did. Would love to see you revisit this exact episode with the same rules, maybe with 2 new hosts and see what you can get on the new used market (I know, kind of an oxymoron, but you get what I mean).
    Maybe Alex vs Ivan

      namedcreekrocks LOL, I started out with a scrapped PC which I repaired, and then I changed the parts until I had a quadcore machine :D Although it's old, it can play any game in HD (DX10). But I'm planning to get a new CPU and GPU sometimes next year. But being a student away from home I mostly use my Laptop for everything.

      @@boomerboy8043 linus has talked about it in the wan show (a few times, but in the latest one most definitely).
      One reason is they are now immediately recognised almost everywhere computer related, so its impossible to do fair deals and the used parts market is very far from what it used to be thanks to chip shortages and such
