linus has been presenting videos so long the live stream almost just feels like a regular youtube video what a pro, his on camera work is so consistent, plus he cares about what he is talking about great content!
I originally had no intention of watching the whole damn thing, but it was surprisingly good. I liked the rando premise, which is actually pretty relevant for those of us on old/budget/secondhand/donated hardware. Alex was a good wingman, and a shout-out to Anthony who was trying to avoid the cameras, but failed. 😁 I love the idea of "LTTNotCom"; I'm nowhere near BC, but somehow it seems to round out the LTT Death Star you've been building (as well as dispose of all the reviewed stuff you're drowning in). It's like a Lego Store -- you might not have one, but the world is better for having it. Still don't know how to apply to purchase the frankenPC (I'm not on social media so I probably won't find out soon enough to participate), but great fun nonetheless. Thanks, and keep up the great work!

Sun Microsystems was really cool though. There were a lot of extremely intelligent people working there. Just look at the list of Sun Microsystems employees on Wikipedia. All of them except for three have their dedicated articles.
why i like your channel is you make it easy to understand my friend age 65 asked me to help make a pc but as i sent them to your channel and also i did help with what they needed but your channel helped alot as they put the pc together themselves with little to no help so you make it easy to understand

This morning at a store an employee gave away free chocolate. Since i don't line chocolate that much, i declined. She gave me anyway, telling me i can give it to colleagues. A bit later at the checkout she came back to me and told me: "Back in Bulgaria we have a saying: Even if it's a slap in the face; If it's free, you take it" Great saying and lovely employee 😃👌
the difference is that she actually gave you the chocolate, instead of telling you that she will do so at the end of the interaction, then 3 hours later she ran off, and you never heard from her, or seen chocolate ever again. #linusbreaksguitars

Colton wrote the script for this video. He got fired because of the huge loss he caused by selling this system. Edit: Colton didn't get fired because of the hight requirement. HR can only fire people above a certain height. The limit is Linus height. Coincidentally.
@@lykuned ah.. yeah. i watched it live, bro. i even bookmarked the original tweet to see if a winner was ever announced. a week or so later it still wasn't
So, Matias is a Canadian keyboard maker and possibly the only manufacturer of the Alps mount switches. Alps Electric made fantastic keyboard switches which are coveted to this day. Matias was a Apple keyboard 3rd party manufacturer that used Alps switches and once those were gone they began producing their own. The Quiet Click switch referenced here was released as a key switch acceptable to stenographers that needed a reliable and quiet key switch. Matias keyboard are expensive, but the board is not a bad buy, though a gamer may be unimpressed.
This video was legitimately a lot of fun. I think the mystery added to it, as did the wide variety of parts discussed. Thank you for putting this together.
Instead of a thinner screwdriver you could just have a longer shaft (that's what she said.) that way you can still fit it into tight spaces and still have the Bulk for the bit storage.
Antoine was the clear MVP of this stream. Smashed that sauce like a boss and jacked the boss for a combined total of about $7K. (*two* expensive monitors, he grabbed $2K of primo monitor, and the reroll landed the $5K one lol, all for low low price of a tounge blister)
Must be so much fun to be on the cutting edge of tech with these guys. They get to try it all, everything you can think of they get to tinker with. Super jealous tbh.
Sounds like the echo is phase cancellation when the two microphones are both live. Using an audio console with an auto mixer would help remove this problem
Honestly letting that worker eat hotsauce to get a monitor way too high spec for his job is awesome. Hot sause wont kill you with just a spoon full. And he get a monitor he doesnt need but is cool as hell. And Linus can still come get it for a test if need be.
Well, that's one way to look at it. I think it was a bit humiliating. Linus kinda made him look like a circus clown by doing hot sauce challeges on live stream for a damn monitor. An employee shouldn't earn stuff this way. It's degrading in my opinion. It would have been entertaining if Linus did it like he was supposed to, but he made an employee do it. It was hard to watch. That's my two cents on that.
@@rhw8567 the guy volunteered for it.... linus didn't insist and repeatedly said not to do it that he'd do it, but hey....if you want to be offended on the guy's behalf then have it.
@@rapids444 Yeah, you're maybe right. I watched it again. When it was live, It somehow came down to me as he had no other choice. It was still kind of awkward, but yeah, after all he volunteered for it.
Yeah, I looked at the stream replay for a bit and it kinda pisses me off how annoying people are screaming rigged and shit, either they think they're funny and they're not, or they are furious that no matter how this went down, someone was paying a dollar for an insane prize, he had a decent enough reason in wanting to make sure they didn't need it for some video later, it's not like he was just being "cheap", and he sounded like he'd rather give it away than subject anyone to the hotsauce in (questionably dangerous?) amounts.
Industry Standards and new equipment adoption point is so spot on… just really well explained and a great take on business/industry in general. Especially when talking about how, if there’s no clear front facing benefit to the consumer, so good! 👏👏👏
I'm a first time watcher, and you guys are awesome! Linus sounds and acts like Michael Scott, and Alex is like Dewight from the office...totally entertaining...and educational!! I'm a keep watching! Way to go guys!!
I like the sales pitch for the LTT acoustic treatement. "Some panels are DIY, some are great performance but really expensive, ours are a little DIY but no tools required, but great performance - but you buy the acoustic treatement that goes inside the panel yourself you can use whatever!". So what is great performance? haha
I'd love to see this done again, but with a few changes. Same component selection and die rolling concepts, but with a reckless lack of care to compatibility janky or not, I want to see forced compatibility ... zip ties and all I'm sure you guys can put together a ddr4 to ddr3 adapter if you auctioned off the final system starting at a high enough price to cover expenses
One of the most fun streams I've seen from you guys, would watch an even much longer version of this with much more small options for rolls and rerolls. Great idea overall, I'd love it if you expanded on it 😁
I actually loved this as a video it was awesome to watch the high stakes. I'd definitely rock the build as is just to say "yeah this is an LTT build" 😂💯
I hope he does more of these... I really enjoy this... another idea is to have a sign up.. BEFORE the random build so you have someone you are building it for... so you can say their name... and kind of have a more personal touch.. :) You should call this "Your $1 computer" and do this every month or 3.. you wouldn't have to go this crazy, or get some sponsors or something.. because I have looked up at least 5 items you have shown or talked about here.
This! I would love a version were we get to root for (or troll) the person who bought it! But there might be an issue to get sponsors if they risk becoming the "bad" alternative? Unless they roll with it and for example Intel sponsors them with a 10 y/o shit cpu and a high end monster for example. That could be fun to watch.
I doubt it's going to remove heat, if anything it will make it hotter since concrete does hold heat for a long time but, it will also heat any space near it so if anything you will end up struggeling to get it cooler even more.
*I'm not an expert so I'm not good with these stuff. Please kindly help me. Could you Tell me if this pc is okay or any good or if there's anything wrong because I'll buy this pc and use it for 4k gaming, streaming, heavy editing and animation works* ------------------------------------ CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x MOBO: Asus ROG Strix B550-A Gaming GPU: RTX 3060 12GB AIO: Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240L V2 RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX (8GBX2)=16GB STORAGE: Samsung 970 EVO plus 1TB NVMe M.2 (1) - 12500 tk PSU: CORSAIR RM series RM850E 850 WATT 80 plus gold certified fully modular PSU MONITOR: MSI OPTIX G241 CASE: Antec Dark Fleet DF700 FLUX Mid Tower ATX Case --------------------------------------------
@@KrufleXS First problem, the display that you listed is a 1080P display (1920x1080) which means it can't run at 4K. you can't upscale the native resolution of your monitor, you can buy a 4K display and choose for 1080P but it doesn't work the other way around. Second problem the CPU is a budget CPU which means it won't work very well for gaming at 4K, because it doesn't have good enough performance If you are set on using AMD you should get a Ryzen 9 7900x which confusingly is faster than the Ryzen 9 7950x. Third problem the GPU, A 3060 isn't going to provide enough power to be gaming at 4K I suggest instead getting a 4070 or 4070ti. The 4070/4070TI will provide good performance and it is an expensive card but, to game at 4K you need the best of the best and it is the choice that makes the most sense as of now. And for the fourth issue 16GB ram is enough for now but, in a couple of years games might require more RAM than that so I would go with 32GB RAM. You also state that you do want to be streaming so you will have to do video editing if you plan to upload it to YT making 32GB a way better choice for your scenario. For the PSU aka powersupply if you can make sure it's Platinum rated Gold is good but Platinum rated is a lot better. For the SSD instead I would go for the Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME SSD as it is a lot better, the reason to go for 2TB is because it gives more storage and, it's cheaper to buy one 2TB SSD than it is to buy 2 1TB SSD's. The Motherboard you chose is good the case as well and I see no issue with the CPU cooler either. For 4K you would be looking at something like the LG 32UQ750-W.
@@leagueaddict8357 I cannot thank you enough for actually taking your time and helping me. thank you so much. so I can see that 4k is the main problem here. so if I say I'll do all of the mentioned things but in 1080p and never go higher than 2k. how would that be? and yes I'll upgrade 16gb to 32gb in soon future when it's needed.
@@KrufleXS A lot cheaper but, I would recommend going for QHD which is 2560x1440 for a really good gaming experience 144hz or higher is also recommended. If you go for 2560x1440 you can put in a 30's series GPU and it'll be a good experience (Like a 3060 ) as long as the CPU isn't bottlenecking it. I would avoid the 3060 3050 and 3060ti though a 3080/3080ti 3090 or 3090ti would be solid, the 3070ti would also be a good GPU to go for. I would say the Ryzen 7700 is a lot better than the 5600x but, if you can get a good deal on a Ryzen 9: 5900 / 5900x / 7900 or a 7900x that would be even better.
Damn, that 8350 and Cross hair V MB was what in my one and only PC build. Worked well for many years but it made my apartments central heating obsolete.
The Vega 64 liquid edition is 8GB HBM2 not 12GB. Also, it's the Vega 10XTX chip, not the Vega10 XT used in the Vega 64 air version. It's quite a bit faster and binned. Nowadays it's on par with the 1080ti. These are actually somewhat rare.
Regarding that Hearing Aid comment, in the US the FDA actually just opened up Hearing Aids to the OTC market last week, so now if you have mild to moderate hearing loss you can buy a hearing aid from places like Best Buy for a couple hundred bucks.
Do the Arc challenge in the month of May. That's when a ton of studying for test happens at least where I am in the US of A. Do you think LTT will ever make a shoe. Did I spell that right? It's the thing you walk around in when you are afraid of legos or sand. I think a Wan show logo covered shoe would be something I would legitimately buy.
The reroll costs should have been a johnny Scottville tube of terror peanut. Then it would have been a real costs vs benefit decision. Plus an awesome 10+ minutes of content on the aftermath if you did.
Mathias switches are essentially proprietary switches, they're the same molds as ALPS switches used to be, including keycap compatibility. I believe the "quiet click" gray switches are their tactiles.
I think the fact that 1$ was the price for the lucky winner, I´d take the worst of these different components and products and STILL be happy. Sure, one wants the 4090 and the best monitor, but even the 75hz one would be good for many people. Imagine, many dont even have a PC, not to mention this good. 7900 + 770 is good.
i loved my old fx cpu days. it was way cheaper than intel so price to performance was better and i think it aged better with better multi score over intell on alot of games
Would be awesome for those who can't be there at LTX... cameras just walking around and streaming so we can get a glimpse of what it's like to be there! Please make it happen!
Linus in his head I'm going to be a good boss and let him keep the monitor. A second dice roll later I'm pretty sure he was hating himself lol. His face was priceless 🤣.
even if he wasn't going to sell it. this is still a crazy entertaining idea!!! heck....even if it was just him trying to make this Franken PC work at the end😅
I like this build because it's versatile enough to be almost anything! Server, Workstation, Gaming PC.... Looking forward to understanding how we can get the "opportunity to purchase"... ;-)
idk why ive rewatched this so many times but you were that guy that helped me through building my first pc so i kind of just like watching your videos now i hope i meet you in person or in game someday Linus you seem hella cool my man keep up the good content brother
I didn't actually know linus had ADHD until this video, although I was pretty certain. I have ADHD myself and am a clinical psychologist, so I kind of spot these things. Good to hear it discussed - we still need more positive examples of people with ADHD succeeding to turn the idea of dismay around.
There's one thing I would love to see Linus do. That is to find the water cooled r9 390x red devil. I was going to pair two of these crossfire with the i7 990x on the rampage 3 Extreme motherboard.

I think the issue of the company ur talking about, is SOLEY a pour choice in terminal pin style and size.. not the wiring
Colton wrote the script for this video. He got fired because of the huge loss he caused by selling this system.
Edit: Colton didn't get fired because of the hight requirement. HR can only fire people above a certain height. The limit is Linus height. Coincidentally.
What r u talking about? Is this trolling? Or did someone actually got fired for this???????
@@ancientslav4863 No no worries, nobody got fired. It's a running gag that Colton gets fired on this channel
@@GodlikeIridium Oh. Thank God. Love ltt and their friends.
@@GodlikeIridium its also a running gag that someone actually got to buy this PC for a $1.
(spoiler alert - it never happened)
@@deforged so what happened was there ever a way announced for him to sell it?
The premise hooked me. Promote whoever came up with this!
They should have given chat the option to force a reroll for each time Linus drops something.
I agree
@@superJK92 The video would never end 😛
Linus, you are the only one that I can watch for 3h+ building a PC. Keep it up!
Can’t get over that “7 blades of inefficiency” line
This PC sure is gonna be worth the cost!
I think it's a scam. I wouldn't pay that much for that PC.
more than worth it
@@JesusLovesYou210 or 68... you know that one
Thats where she does me, and i owe her one!
😂🤣😆🤣
Leave it to Linus to make even the setup a blast to watch! Love this channel.
...and then never follow through on the premise of the video.
who bought the PC. do you know?
@@deforged bro it was a stream
@@lykuned ah.. yeah. i watched it live, bro.
i even bookmarked the original tweet to see if a winner was ever announced. a week or so later it still wasn't

So, Matias is a Canadian keyboard maker and possibly the only manufacturer of the Alps mount switches. Alps Electric made fantastic keyboard switches which are coveted to this day. Matias was a Apple keyboard 3rd party manufacturer that used Alps switches and once those were gone they began producing their own. The Quiet Click switch referenced here was released as a key switch acceptable to stenographers that needed a reliable and quiet key switch. Matias keyboard are expensive, but the board is not a bad buy, though a gamer may be unimpressed.
I'm always rooting for team LTT. You all built something special and I hope you all grow old in success and prosperity.
This video was legitimately a lot of fun. I think the mystery added to it, as did the wide variety of parts discussed. Thank you for putting this together.
Instead of a thinner screwdriver you could just have a longer shaft (that's what she said.) that way you can still fit it into tight spaces and still have the Bulk for the bit storage.
01:03:56: How about the Mark Rober fireman piston??? It's a LOT more SAFE!!!
Thanks, for the shoutout El Papi Grande Linus. I agree, Temple OS was a terrible idea. A terribly funny one. @37:20
Nice
What an intersting stream, loved spending the last three and a half hours watching this
what a rollercoaster of nostalgia, as well as modern tech I couldn't afford. Thumbs up!
Linus' face when he heard the $16k was actually... *drum roll*
priceless.
The display re-roll thingy. Quite funny he said "We need it in the labs." which in reality was "I want it for my workstation."
Antoine was the clear MVP of this stream. Smashed that sauce like a boss and jacked the boss for a combined total of about $7K. (*two* expensive monitors, he grabbed $2K of primo monitor, and the reroll landed the $5K one lol, all for low low price of a tounge blister)
Must be so much fun to be on the cutting edge of tech with these guys. They get to try it all, everything you can think of they get to tinker with. Super jealous tbh.
Sounds like the echo is phase cancellation when the two microphones are both live. Using an audio console with an auto mixer would help remove this problem
every time he showed all the options it felt like an old infomercial and i love it
Honestly letting that worker eat hotsauce to get a monitor way too high spec for his job is awesome. Hot sause wont kill you with just a spoon full. And he get a monitor he doesnt need but is cool as hell. And Linus can still come get it for a test if need be.
Well, that's one way to look at it. I think it was a bit humiliating. Linus kinda made him look like a circus clown by doing hot sauce challeges on live stream for a damn monitor. An employee shouldn't earn stuff this way. It's degrading in my opinion. It would have been entertaining if Linus did it like he was supposed to, but he made an employee do it. It was hard to watch. That's my two cents on that.
@@rhw8567 the guy volunteered for it.... linus didn't insist and repeatedly said not to do it that he'd do it, but hey....if you want to be offended on the guy's behalf then have it.
@@rapids444 Yeah, you're maybe right. I watched it again. When it was live, It somehow came down to me as he had no other choice. It was still kind of awkward, but yeah, after all he volunteered for it.
Yeah, I looked at the stream replay for a bit and it kinda pisses me off how annoying people are screaming rigged and shit, either they think they're funny and they're not, or they are furious that no matter how this went down, someone was paying a dollar for an insane prize, he had a decent enough reason in wanting to make sure they didn't need it for some video later, it's not like he was just being "cheap", and he sounded like he'd rather give it away than subject anyone to the hotsauce in (questionably dangerous?) amounts.
The dumb thing here is that they could have just bought a replacement monitor... And now they have lost a very rare out of production unit instead 😅
Industry Standards and new equipment adoption point is so spot on… just really well explained and a great take on business/industry in general. Especially when talking about how, if there’s no clear front facing benefit to the consumer, so good! 👏👏👏
Linus needs to do a D&D stream where he learns to play.
I'm a first time watcher, and you guys are awesome! Linus sounds and acts like Michael Scott, and Alex is like Dewight from the office...totally entertaining...and educational!! I'm a keep watching! Way to go guys!!
I like the sales pitch for the LTT acoustic treatement. "Some panels are DIY, some are great performance but really expensive, ours are a little DIY but no tools required, but great performance - but you buy the acoustic treatement that goes inside the panel yourself you can use whatever!". So what is great performance? haha
I'd love to see this done again, but with a few changes.
Same component selection and die rolling concepts, but with a reckless lack of care to compatibility
janky or not, I want to see forced compatibility ... zip ties and all
I'm sure you guys can put together a ddr4 to ddr3 adapter if you auctioned off the final system starting at a high enough price to cover expenses
It would be cool but they wouldn't be able to Gove it away.
One of the most fun streams I've seen from you guys, would watch an even much longer version of this with much more small options for rolls and rerolls. Great idea overall, I'd love it if you expanded on it 😁
Tons of potential for different interactive giveaways! Pretty cool to give back to the viewers like this
honestly you should these more, its not about the final build nor the pc, its on the journey and giving back to your fanbase ❤
that was a fun way to spend my afternoon honestly, thanks for the stream!
I actually loved this as a video it was awesome to watch the high stakes.
I'd definitely rock the build as is just to say "yeah this is an LTT build" 😂💯
I hope he does more of these... I really enjoy this... another idea is to have a sign up.. BEFORE the random build so you have someone you are building it for... so you can say their name... and kind of have a more personal touch.. :) You should call this "Your $1 computer" and do this every month or 3.. you wouldn't have to go this crazy, or get some sponsors or something.. because I have looked up at least 5 items you have shown or talked about here.
This! I would love a version were we get to root for (or troll) the person who bought it! But there might be an issue to get sponsors if they risk becoming the "bad" alternative? Unless they roll with it and for example Intel sponsors them with a 10 y/o shit cpu and a high end monster for example. That could be fun to watch.
Crazy how they make it so professional, and yet there live. More live streams should be like this.
2:26:17 - Ouch, shots fired 😆Concerning the laptops, that is 😋
Man this is such an awesome concept hahaha nicely done y’all.
That was a great twist on a PC building stream, wouldn't mind to see something like that again.
I wouldn't say this channel is my favourite, but I would miss you guys just for all the fun you have with tech
Hands down the absolute best stream. I loved this! Great job LMG!
I doubt it's going to remove heat, if anything it will make it hotter since concrete does hold heat for a long time but, it will also heat any space near it so if anything you will end up struggeling to get it cooler even more.
*I'm not an expert so I'm not good with these stuff. Please kindly help me. Could you Tell me if this pc is okay or any good or if there's anything wrong because I'll buy this pc and use it for 4k gaming, streaming, heavy editing and animation works*

@@KrufleXS First problem, the display that you listed is a 1080P display (1920x1080) which means it can't run at 4K.
you can't upscale the native resolution of your monitor, you can buy a 4K display and choose for 1080P
but it doesn't work the other way around.
Second problem the CPU is a budget CPU which means it won't work very well for gaming at 4K, because it doesn't have good enough performance If you are set on using AMD you should get a Ryzen 9 7900x which confusingly is faster than the Ryzen 9 7950x.
Third problem the GPU, A 3060 isn't going to provide enough power to be gaming at 4K I suggest instead getting a 4070 or 4070ti.
The 4070/4070TI will provide good performance and it is an expensive card but, to game at 4K you need the best of the best and it is the choice that makes the most sense as of now.
And for the fourth issue 16GB ram is enough for now but, in a couple of years games might require more RAM than that so I would go with 32GB RAM.
You also state that you do want to be streaming so you will have to do video editing if you plan to upload it to YT making 32GB a way better choice for your scenario.
For the PSU aka powersupply if you can make sure it's Platinum rated Gold is good but Platinum rated is a lot better.
For the SSD instead I would go for the Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME SSD as it is a lot better,
the reason to go for 2TB is because it gives more storage and, it's cheaper to buy one 2TB SSD than it is to buy 2 1TB SSD's.
The Motherboard you chose is good the case as well and I see no issue with the CPU cooler either.
For 4K you would be looking at something like the LG 32UQ750-W.
@@leagueaddict8357 I cannot thank you enough for actually taking your time and helping me. thank you so much.
so I can see that 4k is the main problem here. so if I say I'll do all of the mentioned things but in 1080p and never go higher than 2k. how would that be?
and yes I'll upgrade 16gb to 32gb in soon future when it's needed.
@@KrufleXS A lot cheaper but, I would recommend going for QHD which is 2560x1440 for a really good gaming experience 144hz or higher is also recommended.
If you go for 2560x1440 you can put in a 30's series GPU and it'll be a good experience (Like a 3060 ) as long as the CPU isn't bottlenecking it.
I would avoid the 3060 3050 and 3060ti though a 3080/3080ti 3090 or 3090ti would be solid, the 3070ti would also be a good GPU to go for.
I would say the Ryzen 7700 is a lot better than the 5600x but, if you can get a good deal on a Ryzen 9: 5900 / 5900x / 7900 or a 7900x that would be even better.
@@leagueaddict8357 oh. thanks for the infos
Come for the computer building, but 100% stay because of the heart to heart Linus answering live questions!
02:36:40 there are 4090 cards with the powerconnection on the backside (externalconnecters being the 'front'-side) instead of the topside
'7 blades of inefficiency'
had me in stitches
Damn, that 8350 and Cross hair V MB was what in my one and only PC build. Worked well for many years but it made my apartments central heating obsolete.
The Vega 64 liquid edition is 8GB HBM2 not 12GB. Also, it's the Vega 10XTX chip, not the Vega10 XT used in the Vega 64 air version. It's quite a bit faster and binned. Nowadays it's on par with the 1080ti.
These are actually somewhat rare.
Linus is so really and awesomely transparent about what he does and how his business operates, even some of the arbitrary finance charges.
Regarding that Hearing Aid comment, in the US the FDA actually just opened up Hearing Aids to the OTC market last week, so now if you have mild to moderate hearing loss you can buy a hearing aid from places like Best Buy for a couple hundred bucks.
I truly enjoyed the creative way you guys did this. Great content
I love your content and how you give back. You encouraged me to build a pc!
Do the Arc challenge in the month of May. That's when a ton of studying for test happens at least where I am in the US of A. Do you think LTT will ever make a shoe. Did I spell that right? It's the thing you walk around in when you are afraid of legos or sand. I think a Wan show logo covered shoe would be something I would legitimately buy.
Alex slowly reducing potential sponsors for LTT one by one with his disses lol. Love it
This whole video is peak "only bet what you can afford."
The reroll costs should have been a johnny Scottville tube of terror peanut. Then it would have been a real costs vs benefit decision. Plus an awesome 10+ minutes of content on the aftermath if you did.
Only 10+ minute aftermath? I think not. Imagine next day when he’s on the toilet.
Mathias switches are essentially proprietary switches, they're the same molds as ALPS switches used to be, including keycap compatibility. I believe the "quiet click" gray switches are their tactiles.
How did I miss this :') I would buy the pc in a flash even if it was the worst pc possible XD
id buy it just for that sick duck hunt overlay
@@Griede26 I'd buy it cause i live in a trash country that overprices everything and it takes me 10 years to buy a new PC :D
Id buy it because the minimum possible outcome is better than my pc lol
@@elyascanfixit exactly XD
I think the fact that 1$ was the price for the lucky winner, I´d take the worst of these different components and products and STILL be happy. Sure, one wants the 4090 and the best monitor, but even the 75hz one would be good for many people. Imagine, many dont even have a PC, not to mention this good. 7900 + 770 is good.
You were looking for a decahedron, a dodecahedron is 12 sided.
i loved my old fx cpu days. it was way cheaper than intel so price to performance was better and i think it aged better with better multi score over intell on alot of games
I love that when Linus is saying "in between" as he's scooping the cheese whiz you can hear slight nausea in his voice 🤣
Would be awesome for those who can't be there at LTX... cameras just walking around and streaming so we can get a glimpse of what it's like to be there! Please make it happen!
This is the most entertaining thing I've seen in a long long time 🤣. Your sacrifice does not go unnoticed 🥴😵💫🤭
😉😂😞🥶
This was one of the funniest streams you’ve done. And that ending though! *Chef’s Kiss* Masterpiece
That ending was Yvonne literally pulling a Bender "let's go alreadyyyyyyyyyyyy"
This seems like such a fun stream. You are doing great work Linus!
I'll be watching this in parts but I love the way his lips quiver when he remembers how much money he had to lose on this one.
In all honesty this PC was garbage it was mostly the TWO monitors that killed him
Who else would die for the duck hunt case?
Linus in his head I'm going to be a good boss and let him keep the monitor. A second dice roll later I'm pretty sure he was hating himself lol. His face was priceless 🤣.
42:40 😂 I love this channel
‘You wanted stakes’ 🤣🤣🤣
even if he wasn't going to sell it. this is still a crazy entertaining idea!!! heck....even if it was just him trying to make this Franken PC work at the end😅
know its going to be a good build when they choose the best case!!!
I like this build because it's versatile enough to be almost anything! Server, Workstation, Gaming PC.... Looking forward to understanding how we can get the "opportunity to purchase"... ;-)
idk why ive rewatched this so many times but you were that guy that helped me through building my first pc so i kind of just like watching your videos now i hope i meet you in person or in game someday Linus you seem hella cool my man keep up the good content brother
i have the sceptre but the 1080p version and its actually a pretty good monitor
My wife uses the 900p sceptre works great for her tried to get her to upgrade but she still likes it
This was really fun please do another one! Thanks Linus & Team!
I didn't actually know linus had ADHD until this video, although I was pretty certain. I have ADHD myself and am a clinical psychologist, so I kind of spot these things. Good to hear it discussed - we still need more positive examples of people with ADHD succeeding to turn the idea of dismay around.
There's one thing I would love to see Linus do. That is to find the water cooled r9 390x red devil. I was going to pair two of these crossfire with the i7 990x on the rampage 3 Extreme motherboard.
Funniest thing is that rolling anything other than a 1 on the GPU, will be a significant upgrade for me lmao
That was a fun build, need to do this more often and I’d buy that for a dollar. 😂
Well I’m seeing this vid 2 years late
i love the randomness and laid back style of LinusTechTips, and how there is some moments of total comfusion and chaos lmao
