What the heck is a GAMING SERVER??

Cloud gaming is getting more popular, and we're not strangers in how they work, but have you actually thought about what the hardware looks like when you play games or whatever on them? We convinced Shadow to send us one of their units, and they actually agreed to it... I hope they knew what they were agreeing to.

"Shadow sponsored this video"


*Raid Shadow Legends flashbacks*

[SirDavidPaladin]

Somewhere there's a Shadow engineer going "MY BABY!!" watching Linus poke around in that thing.

[powergi]

"It's just Linus, remove the 3rd graphic card to save money" -Shadow

[generalhenrystickmin]

Linus: Today's sponsor is-
Me: Raid Shadow Legen-
Linus: *Shadow*

[marcusjones]

Shadow: "Linus, our customers are complaining that they get a pop up for LTT store every 10 minutes. Did you have something to do with that?"

[AndrewErwin]

There is no cloud, it's just someone else's computer.

[backupplan]

“Way cooler than expected” so next week water cooling the thing with some janky DIY solution it is then.

[camren.m]

"IT'S TOO CABLE MANAGED"
I thought I'd never hear such a thing from you.

[springcatcats]

Linus "Macbook, Windows Book or Full-Sized Computer"
Me: Ah yes Windows Book

[gishtand]

This must be why my shadow service hasn’t been up, they sent you the server I was on 🤣

[bekkayya]

sponsor: "Yeah ittle be fine we can totally just ship you one for the advert and you send it right back no muss no fuss. Its not like anything will happen to it.."
linus: *knees weak hands are sweaty*

[Sebastian-ylnq]

Huh, I'd rather pay 3k for my own high end gaming rig because...


Well, i can't get good internet

[miskyy]

"Shadow sponsored this video"

God thanks not Raid: *Shadow* Legends

[MyNameIsBucket]

"Gaming server" to me means a headless RedHat machine grinding away in a closet running a dedicated Team Fortress Classic LAN game.

[Sanchez]

I’ve had shadow for a year now and it’s amazing. The closer you live to the server the better obviously though

[TheBlindWeeb]

Every time linus said "OH YEAH!" I was expecting a vector meme or a reference because linus sounded like vector in the video.

[suryanarayanan]

Linus: “What’s a Gaming server?”

*cuts to quadros”

[notaayan]

Roses are red,
Screens give off light,
When Linux says "speaking of"
I double tap the right.

[zachyboi]

I love how just one of those graphics cards is easily double the price of my whole setup

[RickOps]

"What is a gaming server?"

Intellectuals: A server where you can game
