Linus should make a video's about challenging his fans  

the rules are this 

  1. a fan is picked from the forum at random
  2. the fans rig is then valued at currant prices (this is the amount Linus has to spend building his rig)
  3. both rigs will be judged on 5 aspects (sound level / looks / CPU performance / GPU performance and file transfer speed's)
  4. Linus can not use any of the components that the fan has already used (he must find different alternatives for instance if the fan has used a 1080 graphics card Linus can not also have a 1080 graphics card he must use something like x2 980 in SLI) 
  5. using a mixture of brands like INTEL and AMD products is allowed (its not a test of witch brand is better only who has build the best PC for the money.)
  6. although shopping around for deals on components from site to site is allowed. Linus can not use his fame or contacts to get deals on components. (all components must be purchased anomalously from sites like new egg, amazon and performance PCs) 
  7. both PCs will be furiously tested on looks, sound levels, file transfer speeds, CPU scores and GPU score and points will be awarded accordingly (the person with the highest score wins) 
  8. the winner will be determine by an independent judge and a prizes will be awarded to the fan if he wins

Let's not talk about looks. :P 

 

i I think the requirements should be less inclusive. It should require someone who is on the forums (logged in once in the past week and has over 200 posts) to make sure he doesn't select a random person from 2014 with 3 posts 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.
