Unrelated response is unrelated? Kinda? I guess my locations still shows as Michigan.. Temporary resident. College student. Ohio born and raised.

 

But yeah, that's some massive bullshit. Father was down with life-threatening injury in '09 and I had to not only spend all of my savings, but start working at 13-14 to help support the family. All because he couldn't get disability for severe head trauma (chainsaw accident).

 

But before we derail... lol

Yeah, had to get that off my mind. Indiana born and raised. Spend most of my time in Niles Michigan where most of my friends live. South Bend native here. Home of Notre Dame :D

would linustechtips be willing to build me a computer if I were to use my own money? they could even make a video of it on youtube. looing to spend like 10,000 $$ on the build.

 

10k??? I just put together one of the most expensive PCs that I could on PC Part Picker (for shits and giggles), and it was only 6k. What the heck kind of build is this? Specs??

you know those system builders that have been in the biz for very long, know what they're doing, and because of that get very cocky?

a strip of tape on your finger to spread it out is clearly the superior method.

Corsair Obsidian 750D - 159.99

Intel Core i7-5960X CPU - $1,049.99

SAMSUNG 850 PRO 1TB SSD x 3 - 1,409.97

Corsair 16GB (4x4GB) Dominator Platinum Series Memory Kit - DDR4, 2666MHz -$199.97

Corsair AX1500i  - $449.99

ASUS Essence STX II - Sound card  - $259.99

SLI ZOTAC GeForce GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extreme  - $1,385.98

ASUS Motherboard - Extended ATX, Intel X99 Express, LGA2011-v3 - $507.99

and than I don't know how much all the water cooling loops and stuff would cost. sorry. so yeah it wouldn't be 10000 dollars but I'm also including monitor, mouse etc.

so just the pc components only comes out to $ 5423.87 but that's without knowing how much liquid cooling costs

You do have a point about Carey, he has been building PC's for 20 odd years so could probably do it in his sleep. And yes he is arrogant at times but I dont think he means to be.

 

He does have a Pateron account to raise money for a charity gaming rig build

"Once I saw soundcard, I knew you are joking"

If. You would bring all parts to them and take the machine with you, they might do it. But custom build like I imagine you want for that kind of money requires much research and planning. Not really worth unless you are willing to pay them for work.

Oh yes he does. He has a very poor attitude. I commented on a video of his not long ago saying I like his components and said I'd have added one more thing (not a replacement for anything he chose, and would not effect performance). His reply was very snarky and patronizing.

The neat thing about typing a sentence is that the writer has plenty of time to choose words carefully (not just typos). Being arrogant in written form is easily avoidable unless the writer just doesn't want to.

they're a media company, not a building service.

 

EDIT: shameless plug for a youtuber thats not all too friendly with LTT: carey holzman will gladly do it.

Why does he not like LTT?
