funny !
they said that it was too late to change them out by the time they came out

Instructions? In this household? We don't do that here
Literally nobody can come @ me anymore for having too expensive of a setup for Minecraft. I'm jealous Karl!

I would be too with billet aluminum Mr. Ant.
@AntVenom too expensive...

Title: Building a $100k PC. Reality: Building a $6k PC with $20k of peripherals and an $74k desk.
considering the components are in the desk, I would count the desk itself as a pc, same way any case with pc components is a pc
it still counts, especially if you include labor costs
No it doesn't, it's a crap ripoff. They think this work is worth 100k. -24 years working in i.t. building and maintaining all types of machines/networks. a little experience.
They don't even use top of the notch high-end AMP's lol
Don't forget no warranty 😂
bro asked for a 100,000$ dollar pc bro got a 10k pc and a 90k table with nice legs
95k table
Love to see spending 100k and having 24 fps on max graphics. Truly a magnificent view.
yeah lmao. you can get the same with a 5k pc lmao
@@mateodasilva8768it effectively is a 5k pc
Was going to say bro lolol
To be fair this is not optimized at all. Mods like Sodium, Lithium, Starlight, and Nvidium (which is incompatible with shaders) can sometimes triple your fps
And this is running on Java edition...
Me who has been milling things for like 4 years (all be it on a 3 axis mill) can not come close to explaining how much I respect the level of craftsmanship of the desk.
yeah, me too. my apprenticeship as a tool mechanic is coming to an end in about a month and I have to say - 5 axis machining always looks super impressive 🙂 it is in the eye of the beholder if you are satisfied with the surface finish of an end mill, though. I would have loved to see the milled surfaces polished for that extra bling
@@AraniaTwoFer Totally. I went back and forth on surface finish and made the call this way for the way it reflects and scatters light into the glass. There’s no right answer since it’s not a structural decision, but I’m pretty pumped with how it turned out.
@@timholowachuk personally digg the surface finish tool marks. Something's I like a surface grinder or those electrolysis finishes but tool marks gotta lot of charm to them. If i was the end customer I'd be super pleased with this finish in this application

This dude gets paid 100k to build a pc, has all the parts sent to him for free, and then puts a sponsor spot on the video. Linus has the game on lockdown
Don’t get it twisted, the $100k was for an episode to talk about the PC to bring exposure to Karl’s Minecraft channel.
You both got it twisted lol. The $100,000 doesn’t go to Linus. It’s used to build the pc. Linus probably made a good chunk of money off it. But considering he went over budget probably didn’t make as much as you think.
@@Grizz204exactly what I was thinking. But for 100k, and Linus’s team of nerds. Yeah it will be a work of art coming from them lmao.
@@WidgyAinz Not sure what the pay structure is at LMG but having 2 months of engineering time is probably 10-12k in actual cost and a lot more in opportunity cost. That said it will probably be generating good revenue with multiple videos and floatplane exclusives. Not even mentioning that the price tag makes me assume it is for a Mr. Beast gaming video or something so it is also a huge collab putting more eyes on LMG
If I had that money I would buy a supra and a r32
Imagine paying $100.000 grand and "only" getting 4tb of storage💀💀
Gotta fill that out with all the mods and only Mincecraft on it

Instead of Linus giving Karl the "trust me bro" warranty he gave him the "don't @ me bro" warrenty
To be fair, if you have 100k for a gimmick PC, you can probably afford to pay the people that built this to moonlight for after-hours support.
@@Crushnaut Yes but Linus did say that they are not doing tech support for this. Which i can understand, if you want a bespoke as fuck machine the you take responsibility for maintenance.

Linus went from building a $500 PC a week ago to a $100K PC
And I love it! LTT has range. They have something for everyone.
No he did not, he were building the 100k one way before the 500 one
Wrong. He built a $95,000 table.
Heh and the performance is probably within one order of magnitude between the two despite the 3 orders of magnitude price difference lol. Yeah I'm jelly.
I'm glad, such a small KZheadr with all this quality
i like the fact that you're happy with the build but even put your input as to the subjects of warranty, 1 of 1 and all other realistic parts of owning a good and professional business. very professional, love to see it.
I like how you said you calibrated color temperature between the three monitors but because of the way OLED looks when captured via camera, it looks more blue than the LCD monitors. Could you consider explaining in a video why this is? Why do CRT / OLED look like they are a different color temperature to cameras even if our eyes don’t see it
Oled and LCD panels typically have polarizers in them, while CRTs do not.. different light wavelengths can be affected in different ways by a polarizer.. and cameras typically respond differently to polarized light, depending on the type of camera anyway.. our eyes aren't really designed to pick up on the polarization of light.. whenever you get a chance, get yourself just a cheap pair of polarized sunglasses, and try looking at an LCD panel and then and OLED panel.. And you can try a CRT if you want to..
@@fadingbeleifs that is a good point, I’m not sure why that hadn’t occurred to me. I do feel like occasionally the gamma appears different on camera between those three technologies as well but that could be due to other reasons like PWM / scan lines and the way the camera sensor picks up flashing lights during the frame capture. Either way the polarization may be a valid point, weirdly enough though I’d say modern LCD panels look more or less the same on camera as they do to the human eye but neither crt or oled do. I’d expect it to be the opposite with the polarizer
It's nice to know for a measly $5,000 you can have the same performance 😅
WELL without the performance of the speakers or monitors, which IMO are kind of necessary to fully experience a $5000 rig
Maybe 10k with screens and speakers
@@warrenskeen9203 I bet you 5k I can have the exact same or better performance for 5k. ebay, craigslist ect
ever heard of the saying cheap tattoos aint good and good tattoos aint cheap.
I mean my set up is not cheap. I don't need a flex my PC itself, but My peripherals include an LG 42 in OLED TV as a monitor (same one as linus), Klipsch RP-600M bookshelfs and there 10in sub. And on a whim using nothing more than my receiver, I can take my wireless keyboard and mouse to the couch and enjoy 120-in projector with even bigger Klipsch speakers. I'm actually probably about 15k in on my setup, I'm honestly waiting for LG's 93-in OLED to come out at an affordable price not the 20/30K they're asking for it 😂
having a standing desk, it was really impressive there was minimal wobble at 360 lbs fully extended.
Very cool! But Imagine how hard it’s gonna be to clean the dust out 💀
Exactly what I thought... The minimal the to better for me.
Hey {{3}}, cleaning out dust can be a daunting task, especially for high-performance PCs. Have you ever heard of the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a powerful dual-function device that combines vacuuming and blowing capabilities. With its efficient cleaning features, it could be a game-changer for maintaining a spotless PC setup. Check it out!
If someone can spend 100k on a pc to play Minecraft💀 they sure as hell can hire a technical guru to clean it properly.

@@servissop151 not really people can own multiple computers. Crazy right
@@r00kiet80 why would someone leave 100.000$ unused?
I find it ironic that even with a near infinite budget for hardware and the most custom cooling solution known to man, they only managed to hit 45 FPS with Minecraft Shaders enabled when they cranked up the graphics and looked into the distance lol.
I despise bethesda for their awfull optimization on their games. But hotdamn. Minecraft must be on a class of its own. I can't imagine the nightmare it must be to try to optmize this java behemoth.
I think they could've tried Sodium and hit higher numbers
@@dreukrag minecraft actually can be run on a potato from ten years ago they're just doing 4k with the highest shaders it's got a huge spectrum, on medium settings it can run on anything with 60+ fps but with supershaders it'll chug like this video
@@hmm_okok But even without graphics mods modern Minecraft is a LOT harder to run than it was some years ago. In early to mid 2010's it was still playable even on a Pentium 4 or Athlon XP as long as you had a decent graphics card from 2002 or later.
@@Pasi123 i had trouble running it on my fx 6300 in mid 2010s
The audio is truly over the top and I love that he went with a straight up genelec studio monitoring system 🤣(I sound engineer full time so that's right up my alley). Genelec makes great monitors and only has a few true competitors. The issue is those genelec monitors are soooo good, that unless he has a completely built out well acoustically treated room, they'll sound way better than the room they're in and that will be their performance limitation lolllll. However with them being fully coaxial, there is the added benefit of being able to place them extremely close and max out the ratio of audio to room reflections
Now thats the kind of build that I like to see! Absolutely. Amazing.

That third equalizer loop itself needs a video of its own! I've never heard of something like that before.
Totally!
That's because it's kinda dumb. If they weren't trying to spend more money it would make more sense to just use 1 bigger loop rather than 3.
@@rightwingsafetysquad9872 agreed. The way water works there is no need to separate them

@@GSP-76 Not only that, but they didn't even give that 13900KS the speed of memory it deserves. Mine runs happily with 6400Mhz C32 DDR5, and the ONLY reason I didn't go faster is because I picked this kit up last year, when it was towards the top of the pile and almost twice as much as it is now. The performance and config of these parts is borderline shameful.
This setup itself needs the proper showdown like a photoshoot or booklet for its magnificent work of art
How about a coffee table art book? 😂
that photoshoot cost will even give the 100k price a meaning.

its for a person that almost only plays minecraft even heavily modded its going to touch 100gb the other 3.7tb will be for videos and editing and id imagine he has some sort of nas already
@@mitchellmiller6644 I forgot about NAS! But last I checked he does not have a Nas does he?
True, but the PC will only ever see minecraft
he said in the video that it wouldn't feel right if they just added a lot of storage to justify it being 100k dollars
@@growtopiafix8287 Yeah he did, but he was talking about not taking the easy way out and filling it a petabyte of storage or something ridiculous. I'm not talking about putting $100,000 worth of extreme storage in there. Like give me 8TB for God's sake. 4TB is a laughably small amount for a computer that is going to last for 5+ years especially for a content creator. It would have been nice if they specifically addressed it and said "Hey we're only putting in four terabytes because he's got a NAS, or specifically said he didn't need it, etc"
Linus: "We built a Lab for the most accurate testing possible to our capablities" Also Linus: Subwoofer goes brrrrrrrr " PASS!"
That was a Genelec studio subwoofer, they don't have to test it lol
I just thought that brrr was the sound of 20hz
if there is one thing I can appreciate from linus its the segways to sponsors I watch cause he sells it so perfectly XD
Bravo on going back and editing this so quick lol😂
I was blown away to only see 64GB of ram in this setup. For most uses it may not be needed but, when minecraft alone was eating 30+GB, i see no reason for not providing 128GB with the budget. Everything else looked amazing, excited to see the build videos.
The most GPU, the most CPU, the most PSU, the most monitor possible, but a weak 64GB of ram. 😆 Phones will have that in a few years.
True, they forgot the video streaming and editing
Ddr5 is too unstable for 128gb
thats still only half the ram, which is meant to be used, not unused.
Keep in mind it’s DDR5 6000, so I doubt 128 is either necessary or even terribly stable at this point.
The funny thing is if i had originally discovered this thing by seeing its owner showing it off, I would think it was stupid. But I am absolutely enthralled by Linus describing this crazy project. Side note, my phone kept trying to insert a laughing emoji after "Linus" for some reason.
it's the same with insanely expensive wristwatches, you can't help but scoff to people that flex it but also can't help to admire the craftsmanship when the designer try to show it off
The fundamental emotional reasoning as to why workers are more important, and morally superior to, owners.
Oh no, it’s still stupid. But just because it’s stupid doesn’t mean it’s not still cool. Super cars are stupid but if someone asked me if I wanted to drive one I would be all over it.
It's sort of a catch 22. We scoff at people who would spend exorbitant amounts of money for something like this. Yet at the same time, the people who are passionate about building things like this love the opportunity to have the freedom to go all out and really make something unique and demonstrate their skill/passion at their craft.
@@Rowrin facts. My boss is very spare no expense when it comes to his own stuff. He also has a bit of Linus’s “sure let’s try it and make it cool” attitude. Some of my favorite projects have been his personal ones because I get to try stuff I wouldn’t try on a customers project and I’m not fighting for every penny with the customer, so I can do it big and right.
very nice but the lights look like old strip lights from the 70's im amazed between all of you you still went ahead and installed them

an slight boost in price could be adding a threadripper and threadripper mobo
I have a question. Does it matter if you swap the CPU block in and out? I have the Thermaltake pacific mx2, or does the pump have to work too hard? or does it cool worse?
you could have milled the water channels into the aluminium with a glass top and used the actual aluminium desk as a giant heatsink
Yes, but drilling such long holes is not easy and would mean you either have grub screws from the outside or a double bottom layer which would make it a lot heavier. Cleaning would be a nightmare and so would be sitting at your desk. If the bottom gets heatsoked its very unpleasant to touch, or the components could throttle if the heat cant move away fast enough.
That might make the desk uncomfortably warm in some places... Not ideal...
That would have made it extremely heavy and gave it way more points of failure.
Next time.
Too heavy and too hot.

I went to a Congress where they showed those exact monitors... It is really cool how they achieved it 🤯
Im baffled that they didn't get a binned / golden sample CPU with this budget. They could have squeezed out a decent amount of additional fps in Minecraft
From what I remember isn't the 13900KS supposed to be a binned 3900k?
@@SmashMysticSaiyan yes , but a golden sample is worth at least three times more than a ks.
Plus 2 sticks of RAM, along with... 2TB NVMes?! Come on, I have a 2TB NVMe, and I don't even have a job
10:01 please tell me they didn't only give a content creator 4 TB of storage with a build this ridiculously expensive.
Yeah, I thought the same. Imagine paying $100k and getting 4 tb ssd, outrageous.
I was expecting a proper raid setup with top-of-the-line SSDs, not blowing like all of the 100k, but a decent amount. As Linus said, the main computer components only cost around $5000, I would expect at least a small portion of the rest of the budget dedicated to amping up the specs, like more RAM, storage, or even like a built in UPS or backup PSU.
i agree. if i was making it i would try connect 2 motherboards and put 4 rtx 4090 and connect them all making a monstosity, that monitor is also only 135 hertz wit hfor that much money, it should have had much more fps, the ram is ridiculous, only 64gb, i would expect minimum 256 gb of ram in there, so overall this build is horrible
@@dewsongs3128 I'm detecting some slight amount of sarcasm, but you not only moved the goalposts but changed the sport entirely with your point. This being for gaming, their choice of CPU/GPU was not only good but best - no one wants a finicky and unstable rig. That leaves throwing in a good raid array, maybe an excessive amount of memory, and fun things like a battery backup like @kur1su410 mentioned. The entire point of the rig was to be excessive and ridiculous... might as well do it where there is benefit and it's possible.
it could be possible the dude karl could have a NAS or something similar to store his data at home already, but I agree with you
If you think about it, the lack of warranty is a feature here. It means if anything fails, the computer costs even more. Making it an even bigger flex.
It’s is so cool to find out that I live close to Linus, or at least the same city, no one ever lives in Canada apparently
Absolutely incredible insane amounts of work. It's going to be a FREAKIN' NIGHTMARE if it ever tries to get upgrades if it's even possible.

Some people might want to spend 100 thousand dollars on a computer that runs Minecraft on full settings at 44fps. Those people have way too much money and at least now it gets redistributed.
Quick tip next time: replace the alluminum with titanium and replace the glass with pure diamonds😊
they could design a special 24/7 sub ambient cooling solution for GPU/CPU and OC them, that will actually benefit minecraft
If there's any additional content about this desk on floatplane, you earned yourself a subscriber. This is why LTT is the best in the business. The B roll literally made my jaw drop.
Lucky you having the real linus react to you
And now I want to see how Karl will change thermal paste in a few years when he doesn't even know what a CPU is.
He can easily pay someone to do maintenance on it every couple years
Why would he? Just pay someone else to do it.
Dude can afford a 100k custom-built system, you really think he wouldn't be able to afford someone to do his maintenance?
Spending $5,000 on a computer and $12,000 on a sound system for it's bad enough but spendin more than $80,000 on a desk disgusting, dude could have fed so many homeless kids with that
@@xp8969 Homeless kids can eat aluminium?
Nice to see genelecs in your videos🔥🔥Finlands beauty
Total entry level 720p pc

Kudos to the engineering team on this, can't wait for the build video
its same price as an apartment lol
can't wait? LMAO!!!
What country watched linus the most?
@@girlsdrinkfeck sounds like a fairly cheap apartment. What's the catch?
@@nicoper no catch , mines only worth about £95k
It's nice to see a gamer that likes flat and accurate audio. This video is hilarious.
As someone that had a PC built into a desk like this makes it such a masterpiece!
Once you are shopping in the 100k range, it’s crazy how little $4799 seems.
this really takes me back to the classic over the top builds that ltt used to do. more please!
To be a GIANT heat sink desk and NOT to be a GIANT heat sink desk
“yes mom i need that for my school”
loved this iam a machinist myself, Solidworks cad designer and computer enthusiast so this was just too awesome for me. lets see the work that went into designing the base though.
Love how Linus displayed “How to invest $100,000* on the side moniter 😂 15:33
thought no one else noticed it lmao
It’s kinda savage and I thought I was the only one to notice
so weird to see linus filling out a sheet the same as I do when building PCs at my old job.
What was your old job
@@nightreaper1278 building pcs. As he said
@@theredpandagamingswe7545 lol
@@nightreaper1278 >talks about their job >What was your job
I have no words for how angry it makes me that the RME DAC, headphones and monitors blow my own music studio's away on a freaking Minecraft PC build
YO THATS SICK keep it up linus love the content
There's some real odd choices here, if you're going to go with a 13900ks you may as well also get a copper ihs, and a contact frame. Also there was only like 2 2 terabyte ssds in here? I was expecting like an optane p5800x as the boot drive and some huge array of 8tb m.2 drives
yeah, and 64 gb of ram? why not 128?
some odd choices, like 2 x750w psu why not something bigger that has more headroom and would have less stress on
@@mlem running 128gb of DDR5 is a surefire way of not having your system be stable.
@@mlem think the ram was because they would get faster memory speeds with 64gb dual channel memory than 128gb quad channel. And he only plays Minecraft so he'll never use more than 64gb. This way he actually gets faster gaming performance. I don't understand the drives though, only 4TB of storage for a 100k PC seems very weird lol. Would make more sense to have a raid configuration to get super fast drive speeds. This is like pleb level drives right now.
That's exactly what they didn't want to do, just put the most expensive components inside, as said at the beginning of the video
I hope there are like 10 follow up videos on this going through all of the different design choices and interesting components and all of the obstacles that had to be overcome. I'm also curious to see where the jank is.
We will never see nor hear of this again, as is typically the case with every build they do- they might reference it once in a blue moon, but we'll never an in-depth video. Remember, Linus does 'entertainment'' not educational videos 99% of the time.
Hey, {{3}}! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a compact and powerful device that can keep your desktop spotless with its vacuuming and blowing capabilities. The high-quality filters and versatile accessories make it a reliable tool for both desktop and car cleaning tasks. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
@@SuicideNeilyeah it's not like they just published a more in depth follow up video or anything 🙄
@@A-Known-Enemy It's a rare thing; like I/we said, they normally don't and just gloss over the details of their various builds. It's weird that they did the whole reveal and then 2 months later post the build video...
Usually floatplane has the more in-depth stuff
15:50 you don’t need good headphones or even any headphones to get emotional hearing the Minecraft music 😊
This iconic "I did a thing!" moment from here and the building video, should be referenced on every video made that features Alex
full props to EK for that distro block. holy cow does that ever look beautiful
15:58 the menu music of minecraft is already emotional bro idk what you mean
Nah it hits different with a subwoofer they goes deep and decent highs
Taking prebuilds to a whole other level 😊
It baffles my mind that you could've built 20+ fully speced systems with that amount of money
"Gaming computers, even fancy ones, don't cost $100,000" Yet
the gold xbox controller alone came pretty close to 100k
The graphics card alone would be $100,100 and you need an entire power plant.
Jensen: *takes notes, furiously*
well said
Digital storm give me a min
as a sound designer seeing such a sick audio setup in a ltt video was so cool
Yeah lol genelecs for Minecraft
@@thebeattrustee pretty sure he's gonna use the PC for more then mc
@@thebeattrustee Minecraft has some great music
Yeah, my first Idea was - 100k for a PC? It'll be a lot of work finding stuff expensive enough. Then I realized - Just build a PC for any price point, throw audio equipment at it to fill the budfet, won't be that much of a challenge.
Should be a sundown subwoofer
Unless Karl wanted this, this was a pretty wild way allocate funds for a gamer/content creator’s main computer
imagine making a 100k pc with only one 4090
The "Karl Jacobs" "How to Invest $100,000" dig on the right monitor is flawless and peak humor.
I love that 5axis mill. I work on the same type and absolutely love to see any milling you guys do. From the very first wood mill to the Tormach it has always been a joy to see the tech tips become machining tips.
Posted up a teaser of the machining on my channel kzhead.info/sun/rKujhJR5naSoZZ8/bejne.html
Orders a $100k pc also: Activate windows on the bottom right
That one kid using this as a tutorial 💀
The biggest over sight here was turning the aluminum portion into pure decoration. You've gone as far as to CNC mill the thing, you might as well of turned it into a heatsink, to at the very least cool the ambient air inside the case.
Won’t that burn Karls house down or his body?
I honestly thought the exact same thing. Only reason I could possibly think of is engineering it in a way it isn't uncomfortable to the user with ambient heat or if the kid is one of those obnoxious people that touches the desk with their thighs could be a challenge or not worth it.
Lmao why would you want a hot desk?
@@Bombskwad92 that's what I'm saying. Using the desk as a heatsink means a warm desk. Would take extra engineering to put the heat in a spot for people who touch the underside of their desk. That and heat dissipating from the desk would heat up the room much more than dealing with the heat inside of the desk like they did.
@@Bombskwad92 it won't get hot. That's a HUGE heatsink and it has Overkill levels of liquid cooling.
Expected to see 128gig ram and double 8tb sabrent rockets for this build, but I guess those measly specs will suffice 😂
I was like dude this PC has worse specs than mine, in every category! Except CPU and GPU because that's impossible to beat until 5090 or so.
@@cpypcy pretty sure they said in the video they could have used 100 tb of storage for that price. But it could put too much load on the CPU. They wanted pure performance.
Linus just rip of a kid for this shit. I don't judge him. I would do the same to stupid rich kids who still play mine craft.
Just 64gb ram and even worse 4tb storage for $100k built?! What a joke, it should have been atleast 128gb ram with 40tb+ storage for a content creator like him who probably wouldn't ever wanna deal with ram or storage management. If you just fire couple of triple AAA games, heavy browsing, streaming and editing workload your ram is gone and 4tb storage is totally not enough for how much footage he might record and all the games and stuff. 10:00
@@loneranger7271 agree, thought we don't know how much custom case and engineering time cost. Having maximum cap for storage would be impressive
The cooling system is insane ❤
Linus Went all out best pc ever built
I think it'd be super interesting if you took the expensive furniture concept and took it to the next level: A super efficient office/productivity PC cooled passively by the desk itself. If you could do half PC and half Mac with guts from a Mini, that'd be super f-ing cool. Also machined metals always looks so fkn sick
Make the desk a Heatsinc finned metal monolith with a furnace in the bottom
Having studied heat transfer in the past, this would indeed be interesting. Removing the heat from a very small area (gpu and cpu) and spreading it over square meters of surface area would need something other than just heat conduction, because even with very heat conductive materials it wouldnt spread quick enough to avoid thermal throttling. Maybe a water loop where instead of a finned heatsink with air passing through, the water would just flow over the surface of the case.
@@Eduardo1007 Heat pipes are just about the fastest you can conduct heat away from such a small, concentrated area (which is why they're used on conventional CPU and GPU coolers). Given unlimited budget like the video, you could get many custom ones made and machine custom designer heatsinks out of billet. I'm wondering if there's some heat treatment they could have done to settle the internal stresses before machining.
@@eugeneau9764 how much power can an i3 and iGPU really kick out? furniture being expensive is stupid. this project should be too :) or not cause YT algo but that's my dream lol - complete brain rot
And here I was all excited that Linus had quietly add a full machine shop at first and we were going to get to see Alex go full jank on it.
i mean tbf, he DID add a full machine shop and has done vids about it already... it's just not quite 5-axis fully-CNC mill level of cool xD
Love Alex, I can totally relate. He's a measure once, cut at least twice kind of guy.
"So lets take a closer look..." (me watching video) "Ok interesting $100k PC... "AT TODAYS SPONSOR, [INSERT COMPANY HERE]." (me watching video) "you have sponsor-rolled all of us..."
4TB is just too less for a 100k worth of pc.
