Unbelievable.

"Cool celebrity adopts a hobby many of us share" you mean.

Well console fanboys are not the same as console players. I think he tried to be as specific there as he could rather than generalizing. In fact he said console players that happen to be fanboys, and that happen to have an inferiority complex. Hell if anything console fanboys is the innocuous therm in all of that. Fanboys are are real thing after all, I see no shame on the term if it is an accurate description not used for generalization; you can't say the same for master race.
Yeah, like this point of view a bit more. Not that I think its the actual one of the discussion. Still, not interested, so I'll see myself out.

The thing is, it is always about a hobby with PC gamers, since they don't have a single brand.
Lol nice waste of money, but he can afford it so good for him. Wonder if he'll stick to BF1 or try other stuff, it would be cool.
That set sounds terrible though, especially for that price.
I think it's safe to say, even dumping an unnecessary amount of money on his build, it's still pretty affordable for him.

No doubt about it, i didn't mean it like that haha
But aside from that, his reason to build it (bonding with his kid) is really genuine. Great stuff. I know many parents who scream when they see their kids playing games.
That's actually a bit less than i thought lol
nah. me and OP are cool like that. he doesnt mind me talking shit about him.

That's kinda mean.
No, he didn't. He never called all console players "console fanboys". Read the sentence again.
Not really. Tell us how you really feel about PC gaming, come on.

So has PC GAF tallied up the cost of his PC yet?
Really curious how much he spent and how much he should've (ONLY) spent to run Battelfield 1 on Ultra etc.

apparently it is just under 5k. Someone posted a screenshot a few pages back.

Are you serious?
It's pretty much the opposite with modern PSUs.
Efficiency gets lower with oversized PSUs.
This PSU is completely overkill.
But that's nothing new, everytime I look at rigs on pcpartpicker they have completely overkill PSUs.
I think that's kind of an american thing, "bigger is better".
Don't know, in german PC forums nobody would be so stupid to buy a 1000Watt PSU for a single card rig.

Awesome system, but what the hell at that PSU? Heh. Wonder who recommended all that to him.
First time I've ever heard that. Have any links to back up this claim?

This is awesome. Haven't seen a lot of his work, but still neat to see.

All PSUs have efficiency go up with % usage to a point until heat starts wrecking the efficiency on the other side of the curve. The rule of thumb is that you're going to be most efficient when you're going at half the rated draw of the power supply.

You might want to stop the video at 1:27 if you get offended by the term "PC master race"

Kid knows more than most kids that age, including me at that age.
Oh man, I'm getting some nostalgia, I remember being so excited when I got my first PC around the same age.

His Instagram video is cool. He seems like a nice guy with genuine enthusiasm, I'll take that over fake celeb "gamers" any day.
Also, I've always loved him since I saw this:

Sorry to burst your bubble a bit, but the bikini top is photoshopped in, which you can easily tell if you look closely.

Thats outdated thinking.
Modern PSUs with Gold to Platinum rating reach over 90% efficiency.
There is no longer a need to go oversize with PSUs today.
