Intel loved your trouble-shooting stream and has already said they're willing to toss a bunch of money at you guys since most of it is being donated in the end anyways and they feel bad about LTX. 
So, why not make the challenge HARDER and donate MORE??

Idea: Build 20-30 identical MID-TIER systems and send half to Jay and half to Steve.
  • Core i5 
  • 1660 Super/2060 
  • 16GB 3200Mhz 
  • 512GB 660p NVMe drives (basic, remember?) 
  • 550-750w semi-modular bronze power supply
  • Basic $50-$70 case 
  • Use the stock cooler
This time there'll only be 1-3 issues with each system preventing them from booting and/or performing optimally. 
 
The race will be to see who can get ALL of their systems booted and benchmarked properly first. 
 
At the end of the stream, Steve and Jay can auction/donate them off as they see fit and donate any proceeds to their favorite charities.
I'm almost positive Intel would be more than willing to source $$ for AS MANY computers as you want if they're all going to end up donations. 
 
Heck, you could probably do 30+ PCs EACH and make them spend a full 8-hour day on live-stream if you really wanted to. 
3rd and 4th teams with Paul's Hardware and BitWit Kyle?? I'm looking forward to seeing how you guys expand on this!
