4x E5-2699V4

1TB of DDR4 4000 MHz RAM

8 Titan XPs

8 1TB SSD's in Raid 10

Custom Water Cooling Loop

6 4k TVs

 

Why TVs instead of a good gaming monitor?

 

I don't really play games on a high competitive level so I don't care too much about latency and having more than 60 FPS.

i7 6950x

Most expencive X99 motherboard avaliable

As much ram as possible

2x GTX 1080s (not whiny cards)

NVMe SSDs in RAID.

No HDD!

 

Custom water loop that is as silent as possible and temps under 50°C at all times!

 

For monitor I would go with 27" 2560x1440 165HZ G-syncy.

 

And on top of that HUE+ RGB lighting.

 

Mechanical keyboard with RGB.

Comfy gaming chair (mine is starting to fall apart).

 

Oh and you know what else I need? 100Gbps internet connection. 1ms from EU to Asia. 1ms from EU to US. 1ms from EU to everywhere!

 

And can I get iphone 6S plus also? I want to play kung fu pets on it. Some iTunes gift cards are also welcome.

 

Can I also get my own house at the beach in Hawaii? I want to make love with my girlfiend without my parents saying to me afterwards that we were too loud and they don't want to listen to us.

 

Thanks secret santa!

Lian Li's PC-05 (or PC-07) Case (saw it on Bitwit's channel and fell in love, too bad it costs about as much as a CPU), with an i7 6700K, any decent Z170 mobo, an all-in-one cpu cooler, a GTX 1080, and nothing but 1 TB SSDs in those bays (and RGB strips, who could forget). No other specific parts come to mind, just whatever fits. That mounted on the wall along with a couple 4K superwides, that's the dream.

I'd build a rack mounted Dual-Processor Xeon E5, 64GB of RAM & GeForce 1080 so I could install every single game from my Steam library onto a 10TB HDD and use it to play games across the network & use virtual machines over the network to trim the number of older gear. While idle it'll do Folding@Home.

 

In normal life I've been tempted to do the fiber thunderbolt setup Linus had done as most HSF on nVidia GPUs sound like a jet engine... liquid cooling is tempting but the risk of leaks isn't worth it.
