[rainstorm]

Intel extreme tech upgrades always make me feel warm and bubbly. Its like christmas but on the internet and I dont keep the presents 😆

[DetroitTintStudio]

So Jamie worked for best buy wall mounting TVs for 4 years and gets a sweet gig at LTT… mounting TVs 😂

[nl]

This series is just genius. Make your staff happy and make good ass content at the same time. I'd watch these forever

[EposVox]

This was weirdly one of my favorite episodes

[abigailmcdowell]

Jokes about Nolan not being a fan favourite, but his banter is great and I am loving how much he's chatting back to linus haha

[JeffGeerling]

Wow, just talked to Nolan over a support ticket. Interaction was great there, looks like interaction was great in this video too!

[scorpion]

At that point, just take the legs off the couch and set it on the floor. When that leg finally goes, it's going to put a massive gouge in that hardwood floor. Also, I have that same Fractal case and my 3090 wouldn't fit until I replaced the center AIO fan with a 120mm slim fan. Works like a charm.

[Wittttte]

Everytime I watch Intel Tech Upgrade it reminds me of that program in the 90s where lucky kids would get like 1 min to fill their cart in a toy store and could keep it all if they made it back on time. This feels almost the same, only for slightly more adult stuff.

[ShoelessJP]

It always makes me happy to see how LMG employees can find creative, new ways to waste Intel's money.

[mark]

Nolan was the CSR that assisted me recently when I had a problem with my order (courier messup) and he was super friendly and prompt throughout - glad to see that he's such a friendly guy in person too!

[NobleGrows]

0:23 that moment when your Boss ask’s you what your job is 💀💀💀

[starvin]

I like his honesty. "You only caught one things i stole? No no, I stole more"

[ryans]

Although I want to, I will NOT be calling customer support just to talk to this wholesome person

[harbirsingh]

You're telling me Nolan managed to get a job at LMG, won stuff at a Christmas party, and got drawn for Intel Extreme Tech Upgrade, all while his gaming rig was already decent?
How lucky is this guy? He should buy a multi million dollar lottery ticket next.

[johndalegend]

2:30 IS THAT A HIVEMIND TV HOODIE??? Holy shit Nolan automatically the best LTT employee that's wild

[SteveO]

LMG must pay well. Every time they do one of these the person has a nice apartment or is a homeowner it seems like. And the office is in Vancouver area so real estate is probably super expensive.

[jamesborb]

It's crazy to think Nolan is only 21. The man is living the life most people dream of, he's clearly been playing all his cards right, mad props to him

[trevalyon]

I love that Jamie has come out as a favorite once again, on Nolan's video... "Last install of the day... how about I put it there and you like it?"

[phoenixoface]

I love how Linus thinks Nolan has a problem with SSD. i have 5 SSDs in my PC right now at the moment. i would love to send my spec sheet in to see what linus has to say about it

[thh]

This is my personal favorite videos on LTT channel, just watching different people setting up their setup makes me feel good
