The ULTIMATE Sleeper PC Build

[@lydellb]

I actually kind of love this as a concept. Imagine showing up at a tournament or something your rig looking like that LMFAO

[@Unstable23]

My uncle has been doing this since that model desktop came out. Every two years he revamps it and my aunt has no idea.

[@noobertsthenoob5989]

what gaming tournaments don't give you a computer?

[@The_Voluptuary]

All official national/international gaming tournaments provide the computers. To allow gamers to present their own computers would give the more financially inclined gamers an unfair technical advantage.

[@VicinalElk44104]

Or download the classic windows 95 theme, add it to your C:\Windows\Resources\Ease Of Access Themes folder and then go to your home screen, right click, hit personalize, then themes, then that classic theme. It'll pop up not only the background but also all the logos too. The only difference you won't have that windows 95 logo and start up tone when starting it up. I tried this per instructions online and it works. I just have no use for it because my build is nowhere near a sleeper build

[@VicinalElk44104]

@white that sounds like a lot of stuff to do. Why is that better than just googling the theme and then downloading it, then putting it into your theme folder?

[@VicinalElk44104]

@white well considering a lot of what you use today was made by random people, if you are that sketched out about it you should just give up everything you own. You can go on a well respected website that has themes for Windows on it (they exist), and download the theme you want, and stick it in your folder. The file isn't making any executive action, as it is merely a theme. It's just changing the background and your icons/taskbar.

I got rbgs in it so it puts on a light show with the holographic. Trimmed it out with a black rubber gasket. Everything went in and fit well. I don't have a cd drive so I got a couple open spots in the front because I don't have the pieces that go there originally. Also the front has two usb ports but they don't work.

LOL this was actually me when I built my first rig. I literally calculated everything except the case. I completely forgot about it.

[@sel4785]

*when you realize the case he's using is your case*

[@nemanjavozarevic1588]

lmao

[@papi9305]

an appropriate profile pic :p

[@happydolphin1432]

We are brothers in pc's.

[@andreidicu2882]

me 2

[@andreidicu2882]

a green one just like that

[@pycraftdev]

When you watch this video 6+ years later and realise that they could make a new sleeper PC out of the old sleeper PC 😂

[@farmageddon2978]

love sleeper builds. love how you can lock it

[@WebsiteLover]

2:27
As far as possible?
AFAP?
A FAP?!
I THOUGHT THIS WAS FAMILY FRIENDLY LINUS, I THINK NOT

[@rohannathani661]

as fast as possible ?

[@GodplayGamerZulul]

Wtf are you talking about you deaf fuck.

[@AZREDFERN]

Why not just use an old Mac case? That's a double sleeper!

[@aohige]

Dude I would totally be down with a modern gaming mini-ITX built into an Apple II case. And somehow still functional native keyboard.

[@AMalas]

thats a surprisingly awesome idea!! Apple II PC

[@Danlapse]

I just got my hands on a PowerMac G5 Tower, planning to make that a sleeper :)

[@ootdega]

In my opinion they didn't go all-out in the sleeper department. I think a real sleeper build should take a lot more time to fully explain how it even works.
Then again this is coming from someone with an Xbox 360 fan as one of the main intakes.

[@MajatekYT]

As a side note it's very possible to dualboot Macintosh and Windows on the same hardware. The only limitation is CPU architecture, and using older AMD GPUs or Maxwell-generation NVIDIA GPUs.

[@atahangokcebay]

My uncle had a PC built in 2002 which has parts from 1999 and it still works well with Windows XP

[@KnightMirkoYo]

Ah, it is the greatest build. Love the inside color scheme, pretty classy.

[@XxToHellAndBackxX]

My younger brother has and still uses that same crappy case to this day.

[@SkullCrewGaming]

Now take this and reverse it, get a BOMB looking case, And make it look amazing, but be slow

[@andy4an]

nice

[@brokensora1459]

real shit...

[@YoloMonstaaa]

Alienware

DerpMode c mamo

[@ethanmartin2781]

that was the fallout build.

[@rapidfiremuzik_official]

2019 and this s.Pc still looks badass!

[@ItsjustJp]

Watching those edits after over 4 years is like a time machine in another century xD

[@faxu93]

Nobody would steal that

[@rohannathani661]

Facundo Fueyo they would if they know specs

[@theothergtgeek9407]

They also could probably see the rgb lighting out the vents

[@cjthomp2005]

My grandpa might...

[@pipsta]

That's how to make your PC thief proof...

[@LeonCoretz]

Thief Resistant* Around here, crackheads will literally steal anything above 1850s tech level. The other day someone stole a broken mid-early 2000s cell phone from my bus driver's pickup truck...
They didn't even touch the $3500 sound system.

[@pipsta]

León Coretz Lol

[@valdyp.5402]

Yeah, just add some dust and make it look uglier

[@_yuri]

León Coretz they had a retro music system from before 1850s how did they even maintain that

[@jjeter]

Can't fool a crack head

[@vishnushankartripathi450]

Best sleeper PC I have ever seen so far .

[@k_rexking_of_dragons1531]

I am STILL using a personal server case that originally had a multi CPU Pentium. I like that it has room for 12 hard drives and 3 optical drives :) . I use 2 hard drives, 1 SSD . 1 DVD writer, 1 x 3 fan hard drive heat sink and a 5.25 inch multi reader/USB 3 I/O . I painted the entire thing with "Truck bed liner" on the steel parts, and plastic paint for the bezel. This made all the steel parts textured, and a one of a kind look.

[@luladrao7863]

“Don’t judge a book by its cover” Never felt so real until this video

[@iwintutorials7544]

Linus' editor had some fun on this episode...

[@lackingpotatoes]

iWinTutorials I'm terribly sorry but your grammar is wrong, it would be Linus's you would only say Linus' if there were multiple Linus's.

[@anasbis7023]

LackingPotatoes Go away

[@lackingpotatoes]

I'm sorry...

[@Travis-mh8pr]

LackingPotatoes If the name ends with an 's' then you only add an apostrophe, not another 's'.

[@mcdonalds4399]

I feel like this is some sort of YTP, and I don't know why...

[@HuffGLaDTem]

sleeper pcs are my favorite pc aesthetic genuinely

[@nate8930]

Image getting this out of a dumpster in 2003, you power it up then open the case and see all that alien tech light up.

[@The.Dark.Knight.]

Yaaaay. A relatable vid for automotive fans like me

[@sentinelcheese3420]

Tanmay Kulkarni Even better was mentioning Mighty Car Mods! 😀😀

[@NextDoorGuy]

That cressida refence was too precise to be random when I heard it. Glad it wasnt another pink civic joke to be honest XD

[@SSx2000]

I WANT AN R34 IN THE UNITED STATES.

[@Keihryon]

@poop, saw one for sale in Florida a few years back, wanted 30k for it...which was an awesome deal, honestly.

[@adamdrums339]

MANUAL

[@tiborklein5349]

Make a high-end build full of RGB and cover it up with a full side panel.
Suggested no sane person ever.

[@cjhawk67]

I have this case and i can vouche for how easy it is to take the side panel off you just grab the lever pull done. I often find myself gazing into my late 90s SLI before Nvidea ever thought of sli rig lol. puu.sh/wZ7XH/a4174f3f25.jpg

[@-argih]

LGR is leaking

[@strangestecho5088]

I'd guess it actually makes a lot of sense for people living in a high theft neighborhood. Less likely to have your $3000 PC stolen if people assume it's a piece of junk and just go for the tv instead.

[@BrainSeepsOut]

They could've also not cable managed the computer since there's a full side panel, right? Sleeper PCs are Lan-Party showoff pieces. So you take it there plop it on the table and if anyone asks you open the side panel.

[@randyharrigan4790]

3 years later and i'm still stoked linus made a sleeper with one of the same cases i used to have a p4 in

[@WeekdayWeekend]

The quietness would give it away. Those old PCs were always loud as hell

[@Adi-xe7sh]

You hired a new editor, didnt you??

[@Clinterpottrmus]

BarnitoSupreme I like them

[@dariusamir7450]

*T H I C C*

[@NathUnknown]

I don't know what you *T H I C C* mean... (Sarcasm btw)

[@thedes6358]

Good memes makes a good vid

[@stedmangg]

good video, bad memes

[@trevorphillips1858]

Nobody's robbing that PC

[@white_african_9731]

that can be a good reason to make a sleeper pc

[@jmoneyez]

i am

[@Jonathan-ou3jb]

Actually yeah lol

[@Dankushy]

Wat if ur lookin for a case

[@Dankushy]

A sleeper case like this mans

[@miscbits6399]

Hint for loop filling: preboil & cool your water. It drives all dissolved gasses out and makes it easier to degas the loop later (and using a couple soft tubes will avoid bubbling it when filling/topping off)
As for the sleeper rear fans, run them down to 5V, they're only there for looks and it'll shut them up.

[@tenzinsamphel5950]

This is why i keep watching your channel Linus. Challenges i didn't know had solutions i unintentionally learn about on your channel. Was literally complaining out loud how it's annoying that i have to use two keyboards for work when you presented your sponsor Synergy. Going to subscribe to that right now. Thank buddy.

[@TheDisruptiveYouTuber]

7:41 A true sleeper should be loud by today's standards

[@farduran3957]

Could i do this to my grandma?

[@RingoYote]

why? her idea of "gaming" is probably farmville

[@Enl1gtend]

Nonono, to his GRANDMA

[@johnnybelivin3610]

Just be sure to drills those holes appropriately. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@mortiphago]

well she's gonna be a sleeper soon one way or the other

[@ared18t]

FarDuran Gaming turn my grandma into an epic cyborg yes please

[@pcgspot5701]

Wow beauty really does come from within!!!

[@Lunr-rd7ob]

Linus, I'm gonna go out on a limb to state the obvious here, but this is by far, the COOLEST video you've ever posted! PLEASE make this a regular series. I'm sure many would love to see that

[@suborgtfo.4433]

_Here After Austin Evans video of the same concept, just wanted to say This is Much Better_

[@EvoX180]

Same

[@gregshabonrolls]

Same

[@rohithramesh9204]

To be fair Austin didn't mention it's the ULTIMATE sleeper.
Yep he could have done better
