The Supercar Gaming PC - Aventum X Review

The PC is 9600 USD, not 10K. With the miscalulation of 400 USD you could probably buy a PC that makes more sense than this thing :P

/s

 

I really like the watercooling look of this PC (normally I am not much of a watercooling aesthetic fan). Of course I get no one will actually buy a PC like this, but the issue I have with systems like this is that within a year it will lose 70% of its value and 100% of it's e-peen level.

 

Also, as the YouTube comments said.. Was this recorded on a gaming headset? Sounded kind of 'tinny'..

Digitalstorm's strategy is to hope that just one person who probably does not know much about what's inside it buys this /s

You're very much not its target audience. This is for the person with dollars than sense. This is the "I paid $fuckyou for my computer because I can" and a few steps above the person who buys a Porche 911 Sharkwerks to daily to the grocery store because fuck you and then takes it to mororama and puts a little "RARE ONE OF A KIND" plaque on it to show that they pay for twinkies with a platinum gold card.

Where the typical system integrator machine is a Mazda Miata, this is a custom-baked supercar that cost more than the GDP of a small country because my pants don't bulge enough and I need to compensate at the next Fortnite invitational.

Ok @James care to explain how on this bloody earth you convinced Colin to even appear on this video, or was the only way to get him was to make sure Linus was nowhere near his car so he couldn't drop it ? I think that in itself would have made a better video than this video.

Mere petty cash compared to the Behemoth that is the 8Pack OrionX2 at £32,999.99.

That's GB Pounds. Not sure what the conversion is in $CDN or $US... probably not good.

 

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/8pack-orionx2-dual-system-extreme-overclocked-pc-intel-core-i9-7980xe-and-intel-core-i7-9700k-fs-006-8p.html

Thats 42021.59 Freedom dollars or 56478.82 Maple Syrup dollars.

 

Very not good conversion ?

Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only)

Wall Of Fame (Informative people/People I like): @Glenwing @DrMacintosh @Schnoz @TempestCatto @LogicalDrm @Dan Castellaneta
