Popular streamer guy xQc has a problem with him gaming and streaming PC, so I'm hopping on a plane (and stopping by Microcenter) to help him troubleshoot.

You know you've done something terribly wrong if Linus is willing to physically leave his office and fix it
-
As a non-native english speaker, to me, xQc feels like the final boss
-
Imagine being stressed about your new build not working and then Linus just shows up at your door with a bleeding edge armful of new parts and he just builds it for you. The dream.
-
Normally i can't watch XQC for more than a minute, but in this video he actually behaves almost like a real Human.
-
Seeing a human interact with XQC was priceless.
-
Using a milionaire CEO as your personal technical assistant is flex.
-
xQc asking Linus if he knows what a capturecard is, is hilarious😂
-
X getting genuinely excited about the stickers is the cutest interaction
-
xQc is a living, breathing version of a run-on sentence
-
Everytime xQc speak, it's like going through terms and conditions
-
Bro just randomly walked in microcenter and got sponsor
-
10:34 LOOOL, i love X's reaction to the stickers compliment. He is like a child. Love that. What a cool video in general. Man cave talk about stuff they care about.
-
Imagine having the status of Linus where you can just walk into a Microcenter like a kid in a free candy shop
-
I love how the employee had a screwdriver in his car
-
XQC: 15 ORANGE! Linus: its always orange
-
MicroCenter doing an awesome sponsorship, helping to support a good video and had a few good talking points within the video, even before the Linus Segway.
-
Linus came down to fix xQc's PC and xQc came down to give Linus a hug.
-
Watching what was a 3-4 hour stream turn into a tight 26 minute video is awesome. Also the real MVP is Andy, filmed for hours without the backpack camera rig, just hand held like a boss.
-
That is the foundation of being an engineer, not just wanting to fix something, but knowing exactly what went wrong, and understanding what went wrong. I'm glad they hunted down the issue.
-
I am glad you came out alive, learning alot of things about the unusual terrain. "D
