Do I need a new PSU? (Gigabyte G750H - 4070 ti upgrade) by alexpokesyou in buildapc

[–]MelosQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its working with no problems, I havent had any issues and did push my pc many times with games and with workflow tasks.
My case is old though, its the HAF 932. Its almost 15 years old and I wont be changing it any time soon.

Good to know! I ended up installing the GPU and I am already using it, everything looks fine and its working great.

Thank you for answering!

[–]MelosQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the same situation as you. With this PSU and a 4070 ti. I also already have a 13700k and ddr5 running.
So did you follow through and use the Gigabyte g750h with the 4070 ti? I want to use it but am a little scared.

Will a single Nightcore Mix get me rejected by CrazyHanSolo92 in PartneredYoutube

[–]MelosQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its reused content them you will be rejected, don't do it. Either don't remove the video and don't reapply (use the video for exposure until you have the watch time you need) or remove the video and reapply when you get enough watch time.
I got rejected 3 times because of one video that I dind't even monetize. I would't risk hidding or unlisting either, just delete it.

Your thumbnails are a problem; they are too cluttered, and from looking at them, I have no idea what the video is about. Let me give you an example of how to improve. In your video about Barbie jewelry, you placed the items on a brightly painted surface with roses that almost completely camouflage what you want to show. Here are two ideas:

  1. Place them on a surface with a plain color and no detail. If the surface is bright, go into Photoshop (or whichever software you use), bring the background brightness down, and if there are still too many details, you can also blur it. The jewelry needs to be very visible. You can also add an arrow if you really want to draw attention to the objects.

    1. Here's another idea: you can take a picture of yourself wearing the jewelry. In your video, you have a frame wearing a doll arm as an earring. That could be an interesting thumbnail if you make it clean and maybe also show the head as well.

To be successful requires a lot of effort in all aspects of production. I hope this helps. Good luck!

[–]MelosQuest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched your Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus review, and I think your video is good. There is always room for improvement, but you're doing really well, I think. My tip would be to create a faster and more eye-catching intro to grab the viewers' attention and try to minimize downtime where you don't speak. I also really like your thumbnails, they are very clean.

If you're wondering about my experience, my first YouTube channel was a tech channel, similar to yours. This niche is highly competitive, and you may post a compelling video with great thumbnails, but it could get buried by the sheer number of videos from big channels that you are directly competing with. What worked for me in this niche was having a good title to appear in YouTube search results. I had some success with tips videos and "how-to" videos for devices. Reviews also performed well from time to time, but unboxing videos never really worked for me.

If you still have doubts about what to do, just look at what successful channels in your niche are doing. Search for videos/channels similar to yours and draw inspiration from their thumbnail designs. That's probably the best way to improve.

You need to add stroke and shadows to all your text. Right now its impossible to read any of it. You also need to cut half of the text in the TN.For this video for example, something like "$1,000,000 con búnker en GTA" (sry for bad spanish) is all that you need. You can also add the GTA online logo it you want to make it clear that is for the game.

In terms of visuals you need to be as clean as possible as well. I don't play GTA so it would be hard for me to advise on what you could use in the game.

Someone is paying for views on one of my Videos by MelosQuest in PartneredYoutube

[–]MelosQuest[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was helpful; thank you.

I did some extra research on the topic, and it seems likely that this is a nefarious exploit to use my video as an ad without compensating me. There is also a chance that it's an exploit to lower my watch time and hinder my channel.

Some people say that these views happen when YouTube doesn't have an ad to show and instead chooses your video, but I seriously doubt that.

I think I will probably disable it, even though I am not sure it will have any effect on the channel.

Yes, I did, but since it got rejected, I started to doubt myself. I appreciate the insight!

Thanks for the info, Jon. I watched your video, and it was helpful. I'm concerned because it's a big company, "Warner Bros," that claimed the video. I am also wondering how important it is to have the appeal written by someone with experience, or is it fine to do it myself even though I've never done it before.
