There are a ton of reasons why a person might want to own more than one PC, but a surprising lack of cases that support two systems at once- and that’s strange, because so many cases out there have a large amount of empty space. Even in an ITX build, we think there’s a better use for all that space: another PC!

I have a Phanteks Enthoo 719 which is two-system capable, though I got it for maximum room and airflow for a Threadripper 3970X/ dual 3090 VFX workstation.

I think small dual computer cases could actually catch on. The gargantuan size of basically every dual computer case is one of the big things that turn people away. Basically every dual computer case out there is nearly the size of two mid towers and usually more expensive, so why bother? Small ones still probably wouldn't compete on price, but some of the more exotic ITX form factors have proven how much money people are willing to spend for size.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

missed a great opportunity to be able to say "this PC has both Intel and AMD CPUs in it!"

Wow. Yeah. I would like to have one of these. Games that generally favour Intel CPU and nVidia GPU, switch to Intel system. Games that favour AMD, switch to AMD system. I think this is a cool concept, but the cost is much left to be desired...

I apologies if my comments or post offends you in any way, or if my rage got a little too far. I'll try my best to make my post as non-offensive as much as possible.

Wait Linus did not mention the grandfather of all multi-system PC cases: The thermaltake Mozart TX?

I think I loved the dynamic between Yvonne and Linus more than the build itself...

 

And Brandon's little "You're making my job very hard", was just the icing on the cake 😂

waiting for the day when labs tests thermal performance of all these coolers together, maybe include a few coolers that's between 70mm to 100mm as well.

I know the video exists, but is there a photo album of these projects, with more details?

Hardware Canucks does a lot of really good reviews for SFF coolers.
