I noticed this very same pattern with Kingston RAM
Changing SSD components with slowing performing parts without changing the product name or model number isn't anything new. OCZ was doing this 10+ years ago and Anandtech busted them for it.
i bought the sx 8200 pro 2 years ago and i did a benchmark and it never got to the 3gb read bruh i got scammed
This is why I only use Samsung SSDs.
Heyy
Can you share the source for that Thanos Filter?
This is why i only buy samsung ssds
Time for a collective collab. I can see Jay and Steve getting involved for a bigger sample size
Glad I went with Samsung for my SSDs. Shame about Kingston, I thought they were better.
Don’t call me honey
ADATA burn in hell.
I own the adata one. The performance was 3200 read and 3000 wride measured with Cristaldisk. Got lucky I think…
if anyone can expose them effectively its surely LTT.
I miss Microcenter. In my previous life, there was a Microcenter just 30-40 minutes away. Now there nearest one is 3 hours away. Its just not fair Dammit!
GPU scalping should be illegal.
To be fair, as long as the specs are similar, subbing parts is legitimate, if not necessary. When I design circuits, I’m looking for at
least 2 different manufacturers for a component, you’re at the mercy of the manufacturers.
Linus is the best YouTuber I've ever watched
I love when detective Linus shows up.
Newegg are scammers anyways…
yep. This is the reason why I only trust Samsung when it comes to SSD. Thanks for reminding me that Linus <3
I would just go to the store and either kill the employees or have them give me the right stuff + extra (only thing there could save them)
Samsung was always better SSD manufacturer anyway.
Likes, many, dislikes none.
At this time there’s 12 dislikes lol
Too bad I was late for this. I have one of them.
Watching this video after buying the SX8200 Pro a month ago. Whoops
Can we just agree that Linus will always have the best transitions to sponsors?
I have had a 2 Tb xpg sx8200 pro in my desktop for a year now and it has outlasted a 1tb 970 evo, a 1tb 970 pro, and a 1 Tb Arorus Nvme, now I’m probably just really unlucky but Samsung and Gigabytes fallout has seemed higher, than the aforementioned “budget” drive, mind you the sx8200pro is my mass storage drive and the other drives were my boot drives, so take from this what you will, sx8200 probably perfectly fine for mass storage or secondary drive, wouldn’t recommend as a primary boot drive, Microsoft has enough of its own issues no need to add fuel to the fire.
I mean yea that sucks but its legal and at list by law fiat of od them … They advertise as UP TO . It dont need to achive this speeds
BIG YIKES
Why are all these companies insistent on ripping us off? Do they not think we will catch them and then stop using their product. {Nvidia}
This is the kind of quality content I'm subscribed for!
11:43 oh hey 2 days early. Good job guys!
Finally video worth watching till the very end.
lol i wait for reviews before buying.
You get what you pay for (and sometimes less). I just stick to Samsung only rather than do other cheaper brands to try to save a buck (you're just asking to be baited and switched if you try to be cheap, that goes for pretty much anything). 980 Pro for boot and 4x 870 QVO for D drive.
69,000 views exactly wtf
Tfw you look and see you bought that same ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro SSD (but in 1TB) and now question your performance.
I bought a SX8200 back in 2019 and it had served me fairly well since then, so I made the decision to just go back to that (or newer models) if I ever needed more m.2 SSD's a long time ago. After hearing about this, I've decided to not buy from them again. I don't know if I got a good one or a lower quality one, as I don't spend my free time running SSD benchmarks, but that doesn't even matter to me. The principle of their actions and lack of clarity to the end users has made me lose any trust in them, and I don't want to buy an SSD wondering if I happened to have bad luck and will receive a poorly performing one.
This is the ssd I bought and I'm afraid to test this out
Does this happen with RAM too?
Are those Lukes rocks from his former PC?
Poor comparison.
An Exynos phone is for a particular market, says Exynos in the specs and it's Exynos in the phone. They don't swap it out for MediaTek right, so….
"published on June 23rd"
how did I get on an alternate timeline?
this was a fascinating video until the micro center ad. Pretty sure even micro center is either having a hard time keeping GPUs in stock or charging scalper prices.
In my country: people protesting about labor rights, government corruption and overtaxation.
In US: people protesting about SSDs.
Haven't purchased an ssd that wasn't Samsung, ever. Seems this trend will continue indefinitely
PP bizon Night Riot? That's a real cheap skin right there
Good representation
Fuck, I own one of these things.
I guess it's time to switch to Samsung.
LMG is one of the few companies I actually genuinely trust, this is a prime example why.
Man sucks. I've been an AData customer for years, buy their memory and recently bought this exact SSD… Wonder what variant I have… shady corporations.
lmfao the domino SSD cascade at the end 🤣
