Hey everyone, the backpack is an early prototype that Jonan isn't happy with either. We weren't supposed to really review that aspect in the first place, and we neglected to mention that the eBlaztr team is already working on a much more safe and robust pelican case design. If that was any concern to those of you interested in the product, don't worry.

[seanmcclune]

I just want to point out that they are using a window/outside as a background and it doesn’t look blown out.

Props to the videographer for setting up the lights to balance the outdoor and indoor lighting and have it look good.

[eden]

its actually a normal sized backpack, linus is just very small

[petrkisselev]

Honestly, I'd get this as a full desktop replacement. Forget the portability, this is hands down the best ITX case that can accommodate a full GPU.

[DrFungus]

When this catches on and gamers start lumbering around with these heavy backpacks, we'll all be damn jacked. I see this as a win-win situation.

[jay-em]

I like how Linus is using the home theatre keyboard that Yvonne wants him to throw out to prove he still uses it.

[Sekir]

"Is this really portable?" - Me, going to LAN parties in the late 90s, early 00s, yes. Hell yes! That time it was a two man job, one for the PC case, one for the CRT monitor. And still was a pain in the ass! :D

[keronrussell]

Despite the minor issues, this build strangely fills me with a lot of enthusiasm

[Antoto]

This actually would be a really good all-in-one style pc. Some people really prefer the look of all-in-one pcs but the none upgradeability makes them terrible investments.

EDIT: Omg I've never had so many likes on a comment. I appreciate it and all the interesting positions people have had in the replies. Hope you all have a great day :)

[allenseeallendo]

This actually isn’t a dumb idea. I like the stand. The backpack is outrageous.

[jasonblalock]

I'm in awe of how much that thing looks like a "computer of the future" from a 1990s movie.

[some______guy]

I used to run a production company, livestreaming events. This is exactly what I wanted. A easily movable computer.

[Bargeral]

Having hauled around a 20" CRT, a table, a full tower CPU, my own chair, keyboard-mouse and speakers to play OG Doom- I fully appreciate the value of this setup.

[collinschofield]

Here’s a different perspective: as a college student, I have to move my computer between home and college every few months. Within Two years I have had to move my computer 8 times. This sort of thing would be GREAT for me for this sort of thing. It would be so much easier to move it every few months!

[FAB]

Forget the portability, this is a sick customizeable all-in-one! Love it!

[onlytheneeded]

This 100% would be targeted for LAN tournaments. I can see this being the main one to use because it's easily moveable with literally everything in it, no having to move a monitor and a box seperately. What I would like to see is at minimum a single fan aio liquid cooled capable case, somehow. Perhaps they could add a part on the back where the aio can mount? Or perhaps a part on the inside that it can mount on mesh towards the monitor. That would be what I would want to personally see.

Linus: "I haven't forgotten how to build a computer. My brain isn't addled..."
Also Linus: "Brandon... did you ever SEE ME put thermal paste on?"

[hate]

if this catches on, I could see a resurgence of like, modern versions of the compaq portable
I am extremely here for it

[sijonda]

Linus is like a curious cat.

He pokes around and jumps away when something falls loose instead of trying to catch it to prevent damage.

[nicholasweiss]

This seems like an interesting and promising Idea, but as someone who has their GPU mounted rotated just like in this case I have some advice regarding GPU choice:
In my experience GPUs with large Vapor Chambers instead of more Traditional Heatpipes will start overheating in this orientation. My guess is that in vapor chambers the water has a harder time creeping back up to the heat source than in heatpipes. As to why the capillary action in works better in heatpipes than in vapor chambers: I have no Idea.
But I had a Vega 56 Red dragon and a RX 6800 and 6900xt running in different orientations, and the Newer AMD vapor chamber cards ran more than 40° hotter and even thermal throtteled at stock speeds when put upright.
I even rotated my case once while stress testing my system and you could see the temps change live while I was turning my PC case.
