“We wasted a *little* bit of money on an extra GPU”

The extra GPU: *$1, 300*

Linus: "A PC someone can actually buy"

Also Linus: (pulls out two RTX 2080TI's)

"Without spending extra money on things we don't need."

**Forgets about dual RTX 2080 Ti**

I guess y'all know this quote: *Welcome to another episode of "My computer is better than yours"*

[watercannonscollaboration]

Jake: “We wanted to be a little bit more sensible so here’s a 1000W PSU instead of a 1600W”

Nvidia: Hold my 3090s in SLI

"Water coolers don't even look that much better"
He says as he attaches a basketball to the motherboard.

[antonniktin]

Linus : recommends to buy that pc
Also Linus: *"I would not recomend buy this configuration" *

[walkinmn]

"We're using this motherboard because we don't need all these stuff"
- changes the mb because the gpu doesn't fit and has all that stuff
"We're not using liquid cooling because fans are fine"
- changes to liquid cooling because the other one doesn't fit
"We're doing a gamer build that we can actually recommend someone to buy"
- Says at the end they don't recommend that build

Disclaimer: I actually liked the video and thought they did make a good point but, oh so much irony!

Air Cooling...
00:50 "It doesn't make a difference."
9:56 "Oh my God... It doesn't fit."

[ReplayStation]

"Well, we wasted a little bit of money on a second graphics card..." Bruh, that one card costs twice as much as my whole rig.

[pesterenan]

"and air cooling, because it doesn't make a difference."

“A PC someone can actually buy”....
*my wallet cries and jumps off a bridge*

[lakshyanarang]

Linus: "A PC someone can actually buy"

Me: Bruh, I can't even afford the fans

Edit: Can't afford a single fan either.

"We went with an air cooling because water cooling isn't necessary"

Narrator: it was necessary

[adityamaanas]

"Without spending money on extra things we dont need"
dual 2080 ti
two ironwolfs
two raid 0 ssds
insane mobo
insane case and fan setup
prebinned cpu that costs more than most people's entire setup

[dtiydr]

"A PC someone can actually buy"
The memory sticks probably cost more than my computer.
