Two GTX 980s in a trashcan!? - MSI Vortex G65 Review

MSI wouldn't let me take a very close look at the Vortex G65 at CES 2016, but I FINALLY got my hands on one! Let's see how it performs...

It's not even listed yet, and somebody disliked it? It hasn't even been linked for 10 minutes, which means they just disliked it for no reason..!

What evil person would do this??

[moe]

I love how companies can charge over $4000 for a PC yet still have the audacity to put bloatware on it.

[EMSWK]

I remember when linus use to have the sponsor spots at the end of the content instead of the beginning.

[JakeG]

I tought he was actually doing a build with two 980 in a bin

[jeboiii]

Linus that type of guy to have two girlfriends in SLI

"While there _is_ one other high-performance trashcan shaped PC on the market-"
High performance... PC...
Umm...

[Tidest]

8 Gigs per card? That's not how SLI works Linus... With SLI 8+8 doesn't equal 16, it equals 8 total Gigs of VRAM.

>Mac Pro
>High performance
Please pick one

This PC looks awesome! The form factor is unique, I actually don't mind the gamer-y appearance. Would have loved a better view of the deconstructed machine, maybe some gaming benchmarks? I hope MSI have not patented w/e they had to do to achieve this design because I would love options from ASUS or even better yet, barebone configuration where i would buy my own parts/case and build an appropriately tiny and cool looking PC with just the right amount of power for my needs.

[Dan-uovi]

what...the...fuck... msi. $1400 worth of stuff in a $4000 system... Even alienware is less expensive than that. What an embarrassment.

[ZairDefender]

bruh I bet you Linus gives himself his own haircuts😅😭

[TheKyleAye]

Hows the graphics card? Can I run minesweeper smoothly?

[MxJ]

lmao msi totally ripped off apples design i mean come on

[TheGarvito]

Love how pc nerds hate Apple, yet theier belived companies copies Apple all the time.

[phillipkim]

why do so many people dislike this channel? i like it...

[heyitsbaku]

going back to old linus content to see how hardware's evolved, and god, remember when everyone was hopping on this trend of "trash can" computers? it was so bizarre, but some of the machines that came out of it were very interesting looking.

[stefanzlatanovic]

This is where we part Linus. It was a good run. Thank you for the amazing content.

[thgreenbeast]

Why isn't there a model with two fury Nanos

I would LOVE to see this in a barebones! It has MXM slots for GPUs DIMM slots for RAM a socketed CPU, M.2 slots. Perfect for a barebones kit.
