These videos are a fun recap of the past year, complemented with a unique and high-production quality intro. The video talks about the first time that Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA are all competing in the GPU market. Intel's Arc A750 & A770 GPUs had driver issues, AMD's RX 7900 XTX has had thermal issues, NVIDIA's RTX 4080 has had existence issues -- like, existentially, it's just flawed. In addition to these problematic launches, we've covered major controversies this year like Artesian Builds' collapse ("re-roll!"), Newegg's motherboard issues, and we've shown how few prebuilt gaming PCs are worth it. While there were many positive stories and launches this year, today, we're focused on looking back at some of our deepest content covering the most disappointing things.
Your support on projects like this -- even just watching and sharing, but especially via the store -- is what allows us to do what we do. Thank you, everyone, and have a great new year! The whole team at GamersNexus is excited for 2023!

@@SrApathy33The overheating issue was first being reported shortly after launch. AMD tried to shrug it off with the excuse "Its completely fine having junction temp spikes of 110c" and channels like this simply believed them and didn't Investigate it any further. That was despite people having crashes and reboots due to those high temps and then trying to return the card back to AMD, to only be refused by them. It's "strange" since they jumped all over Nvidia on mass, when the very first few reported issues of adapters melting, came to fruition. Then there was less than half a dozen reports, compared to hundreds now with the reference XTX and XT cards. Yep, It's only in the past 24 hours or so the scale and seriousness of the issue (faulty vapor chamber) has surfaced. But even now, the major tech channels, all seem to still be quiet and hush, hush on the issue!!! Thank God, that at least Der8auer took time out to investigate the reports and hunt down what was causing the issue.

I'm kind of surprised that Gigabyte's exploding PSUs weren't mentioned in the video. Was Patrick really that traumatized after going through so many of them? In any case, happy new year for everyone at Gamers Nexus!

[@AC3handle]

was that this year or last year?

[@aerosw1ft]

Pretty sure that was last year. No way GN would skip over something they were so vocal about!

[@AC3handle]

@@aerosw1ft it all kinda blends together. Honestly he should make a mutant system that comprises the worst of 2020, 2021, and 2022.
