I got an LTT Screwdriver during their Black Friday sale, where you got a significant discount, but you didn't get to choose the colorway.

Luckily, I ended up getting the colorway I wanted anyway.

What's to judge? It's a high-quality tool at a discount! That's awesome. Hope you build a lot of machines with it! :lovetpu:
I just know there's a lot of LTT hate around here.

I understand a lot of it, but I still watch LTT.

I do too, if for the entertainment value. A lot of things get needless hate. I mean, even I get some hate, and my opinions aren't even of the strongest kind :D

Linus' audience is not people like us, if you consider that he manages to open a door to the tech world for people who barely know how to turn their computers on, he does us all an invaluable service

Just curious, how much was it? I'm a complete cheapskate so I could never justify a $70 screwdriver (I'm fine with a $2 one), but I hope you enjoy it!

It was $40 (and $10 shipping from WA to AZ).

I should've grabbed some extra stubby bit sets while I was at it, oh well.

"Judge" is too gentle a word for what you deserve. :p

Edit: Waves in Arizonan.

Finished the install of my latest purchase. It's leaps and bounds better than the Pioneer and no more sound issues.

F**kery I was dealing with correcting:

Linus is a tit, I can’t watch his videos as he annoys the brown stuff out of me. The way he shot himself in the foot just proved to me I was right about him all along.

Anyway, got rid of the 9yr old tyres off my CBR yesterday. The new Pirelli ct are miles better.

The second Sony OLED in the house... Sony Bravia XR A95L 65" paired with a Sony UBP-X800M2 4K player the set proves to be over the top stunning...plenty of specs and pictures on the www...still tweaking but it has been amazing out of the box . I moved the main room tv , a Sony Bravia XR HX 929 55" , to another room and the 65" seems to be a better size for the main room.

ahh the Spudger as Big Clive calls it.
I'll try to remember that! SPUDGER

The second Sony OLED in the house... Sony Bravia XR A95L 65" paired with a Sony UBP-X800M2 4K player the set proves to be over the top stunning...plenty of specs and pictures on the www...still tweaking but it has been amazing out of the box . I moved the main room tv , a Sony Bravia XR HX 929 55" , to another room and the 65" seems to be a better size for the main room.
Bought my wife a 65 inch Sony XR-65A80L and the HT-A7000 Soundbar with the big subwoofer for Christmas last year and replaced her old 49 inch Bravia. My 55 inch model and soundbar/subwoofer are 4 years old now. I wouldn't buy anything but Sony.

Alright, time for everyone to judge me...

Software Windows 11 / 10 / 8
I can't post any proof on that because my old smartphone's camera decided to kick the bucket but I purchased a used Huawei Nova 10 for as little as $93. Apart from exceptionally minor scratches and slightly abused battery, the condition is perfect. After Honor 8X, it feels like a capital ship and a half. So snappy. So on point.

Scheduled to arrive early next week. TPU did a review of the Cras C925 with max capacity of 2TB if that is at all helpful.

So far it is as expected. Temps are about 10C higher than boot drive or 42C idle / 64C max sustained high speed write .
Saw just below 700MB/s max when writing from SATA SSD and the fastest speeds I saw were around 4300MB/s letting Steam manage file transfer from 980 Pro.
Seems to work fine half buried under a GPU. Opening some demanding games after GPU driver update it touched 55C and runs them much lower.

Thanks for your valid response!! I was eyeing on this once vs the Patriot VP4300 Lite.

Upgrading from an old beaten up and battery swapped 2015/16 Edge 520. They had hiked the price up to £250 not long ago but I thought id better make a move after price dropped again.
