Google Adsense considers this website "low quality content" so far...

I've been trying to get this website into Adsense as an added bonus to make a few cents here and there, but their approval system appears to be especially harsh. Keep in mind I have two other websites in the Adsense system. 

"low quality content" and "thin content"

Most of the articles here right now are text versions of my YouTube videos. I'm going to assume this is why I'd had trouble with getting their approval. 

Sorry, this feels out of touch. I produce videos as my primary form of work and then create website articles based on the videos. The site has ~15 detailed articles so far. I guess the Adsense approval system considers it "low quality content". 🤷 

Not everyone wants to watch a video. I feel like this is a key value proposition.  

Maybe in more time I'll try to apply again, but after looking at their videos and documentations it feels vague and difficult to guess what it is they actually want. 

My guess is exclusive articles without any relation to my video work on YouTube. I might go that route at some point, but it might focus on more rants rather that producing product reviews that I'd likely make a related video for.

MSI SPATIUM M482 compared to older Solid State Drives

Solid state drives have changed quite a bit over the years. I spend a lot of time editing videos, so I'm always dealing with large files and need a lot of fast storage. I recently did a new PC build, and with that, I got a new SSD for the operating system. This particular drive, the MSI SPATIUM M482, came bundled with my motherboard as a bundle. Watch the video on YouTube for more information or if you prefer video over reading:  The MSI SPATIUM M482 2TB NVMe SSD Drive Specifications and Features The MSI SPATIUM M482 is built on 3D NAND flash memory and comes in the common M.2 2280 form factor. It uses a PCIe Gen 4x4 interface with the NVMe 1.4 protocol. For the 2 TB model, MSI claims a sequential read speed of up to 7,300 MB/s and a sequential write speed of up to 6,400 MB/s. They also rate the meantime between failure (MTBF) at 1.5 million hours.  For those unfamiliar with these terms, 3D NAND is a type of flash memory where memory cells are stacked vertically in multiple l...

Reviewing the Thermalright TL-G12 and TL-C14 Fans

I recently picked up a bunch of Thermalright fans for a new PC build, specifically the TL-G12 (120mm) and the TL-C14 (140mm). At the time, they were pretty inexpensive, and the promise of fluid dynamic bearings (FDB) along with PWM control sounded like a great deal on paper, so I bought quite a few of each. In this article and related video I go into detail about their installation and use.  Check out the video on YouTube for a lot more information:  Boxes for the Thermalright TL-G12 and TL-C14 fans. Specifications listed on the TL-G12 fan box. Specifications for the 120mm TL-G12: Speed: 1500 RPM (+/- 10%) Noise: Rated 23.6 dBA or greater. Airflow: Up to 62.6 CFM Connector: 4-pin PWM with a daisy-chain feature. Extras: Includes rubber pads on the corners for vibration dampening and standard case screws. One thing I noticed on the G12 frame is the lack of an airflow direction indicator, but it's a standard fan design, so it's easy enough to figure out. Specifications shown on ...

Upgrading from GTX 1060 to RTX 4060: Performance Gains in an Older System

(I used Claude AI to generate this article based on my video's transcript, so keep that in mind it might not be perfect even though I've gone through it to correct any issues I see. Also keep in mind that I've done further testing with an ASUS Proart 4060 compared to the MSI 1060 on my old PC and noticed a few situations where the CPU was limiting performance such as FFXIV minimum framerates.) https://youtu.be/yR6XPvt-F0A I recently decided to take a look at the GIGABYTE RTX 4060 low profile version. This was the cheapest RTX 4060 card I could find as an Amazon Warehouse Deal, and I was curious to see if my old computer would benefit from upgrading from a GTX 1060 6GB to this new card. Low profile! My current system is built around an Intel i7-6700 CPU, which is likely to be the main limitation in this comparison. I was particularly interested in the sound profile of this card given its tiny size. I don't take a look in the video, but potential benefits of AV1 encode/d...
