I have to say, this entire desk project seems utterly pointless.
It’s not even a good PC, it offers zero utility over a bog standard high end machine. They could have done so much actual cool stuff, instead they just created a liability that is impossible to even move around the room and may even move itself through the floor.
It’s an entertainment video. It’s about as serious as a home improvement show on TLC.
Yeah, but is it entertaining to see people waste stuff?
Again, it’s not even cool or useful. I’m fine with completely over the top builds or experiments, that’s cool. But this setup poses as an actually useful thing, while it’s the polar opposite.
They were asked to make a 100,000$ gaming PC. Even with bleeding edge components and storage out the ass, you’re still 90 grand short. So a one-off, ridiculously over-the-top case is as good a place as any to put the rest of the money.
Also, the man outright said there is a not zero chance some Saudi prince is gonna bid for it.
He knows it’s excessive and there are people that live in excess in the world.
I have an old 2009 i5 750, overclocked tp 3.6, with a gtx 1060, 12gn ram and an ssd. I use it in my living room for streaming and I can play pretty much any game I want at 1080p with it. Overall I spend less then 800$ on it, over the spam of 15 years.The socalled PC “master race” is basically capitalist brainwashing.
Actually kind of contrary to that PC master race just goes to show that I can spend $800 or less and even over the course of 5 or 6 years it’s still just as viable as it was the day I bought it versus a comparable console
Put Linux in that thing and it will run like new!
That’s exactly why PC is the best gaming platform, you can game on a wide range of budgets.
I suppose the views kind of correlate to budget.
My third monitor was actually on the curb for bulk pickup. Just a standard Samsung 4:3 and it works great! Somehow better than my 2010 Dell 16:9 in black response. No idea what year it was.
