What's up, everyone. Welcome to the win show. We've got a fantastic show lined up for you today. First and foremost, as you guys can see from the title, we've got to talk about what shameless shills we are. Yeah.

0:29.0

Shilling for a sus and sponsored by them and not addressing the big controversy, which obviously we'll be talking about on the win show. I usually talk about such things. We're also going to be talking about Google I.O.

0:40.0

Man, it was an AI extravaganza this year. What else we got this week? YouTube blocks ad block. What counter block? No, I'm going to block their block of my block.

0:54.0

I don't know.

0:58.0

Because you got blocked.

1:00.0

Oh, man, we already talked about the former Uber CSO being found guilty for concealing a data breach. So maybe we should talk about how a Chinese company released a new CPU.

1:14.0

Okay, we could also talk about smart watches that you can no longer set the time on. Oh, wow. Yeah, what?

1:22.0

I wrote the intro. You can't see because we don't have the preview deck. Yeah.

1:26.0

All right, guys, in all seriousness, we've got to talk about the big controversy that has been making big waves in the techosphere over the last.

1:53.0

I mean, realistically, the whole thing started a few weeks ago when we saw that CPU that got popped and burned on the bottom.

2:00.0

We talked about that on WAN show. We did talk about that on WAN show. Some people have said, hey, what's up with you guys not talking about this at all we actually did.

2:07.0

And then we've been kind of waiting to learn more and learn more we have gamers nexus has completed their series of videos about what's been going on with Ryzen X 3D chips that have been.

2:20.0

Well, I think blowing up is probably a little bit melodramatic, but burning up is certainly a way that we could describe them due to higher than anticipated voltages being applied by particularly some motherboard manufacturer's biosis and a sus seems to be at the center of this controversy.

2:38.0

Now, there's been a lot of questions under our review of the ROG ally that went up yesterday asking why that.

2:48.0

You know, I didn't even say the word because I couldn't find my swear button. The point is why haven't we addressed this and why are we shilling for a sus when everyone else is mad trying to.

3:00.0

Okay, you wouldn't like him when he's angry.

3:03.0

It was a review of a handheld. That was the embargo lift day.

3:08.0

There's did there was no coordinated anything if it was sponsored you'd know because it would have said it was sponsored by deep red for crying out loud.

3:17.0

It's a showcase or something. Look, I've had a not I've had my fair share of controversies over the last couple of years and in some cases man I had it coming.

3:27.0

But this is one of those ones that I'm looking at going hey hold on wait a minute what we don't even review motherboards.

3:35.0

And haven't for like a really long time.
