Yeah, I know but even after starting his own company he still stars in their videos from time to time.
Ah right

This is one of the best/coolest builds I have ever seen. That the one company actually manufactured a one of a kind piece just for this build is quite shocking, it probably cost a big chunk of cash. I know no one in their right minds is actually building this for daily use and for good reason lol.
He did say he ran into more issue but wouldn't go into them. He could link to a separate video explaining everything in detail, I hate when stuff is skipped in order satisfy some arbitrary video length.

I read that as JayZ and now I'm disappointed.
Why are you comparing 980s with 680's power draw?
2 OCed 980Ti alone would be around 600w

Because of the rating that they gave the power supply.
In the one listed on the video a 1600W 80 plus titanium is used.
At 50% load is the when it actually reaches it's peak efficiency. (96%)
It actually provides a reduction in electricity bills when utilised correctly.
He's not much of a gamer, no. Not anymore, at least. He'll really get into a game from time to time, like the new (not the new new) Tomb Raider, but other than that he doesn't game much anymore. Which is perfectly understandable. Dude is married with two little children, runs a business with 8+ employees *and* writes scripts / shoots videos every other day. Where'd he even get the time. His 'partner' Luke is much more into it, he streams occasionally and stuff.
He's done with that now. They shoot his final NCIX / Netlink Daily video last week.
Dude's a beast. I hope he doesn't get burned out, lol.

Well done Linus, you really pulled it out of the bag. Very impressed with those Nano's and water block. Such a neat build for a monster setup and the video is well edited. Lately he has a tendency to over act or go off track which might be okay in the moment or for his regular viewers but it's quite a chore to watch them back over months later.

Add one more card and you get to around 600W.
Ah that would explain Esther coming back randomly and out of the blue

listen to the mad man
Ought there not be a moral imperative to use more efficient components even if they don't save you money simply to reduce one's footprint?
Well, unless you're doing a life time analysis of the environmental cost of materials, process, packaging, marketing, etc used in either version - it's kinda difficult to say with much accuracy which one is really using more resources overall.
Sure, if you only account for power draw, a less efficient system is well.. less efficient.
But often good intentions are betrayed by ignorance of facts.
And I'm saying this mainly because the degree of difference appears to be small - rather than obviously and astoundingly large.

damn, that's impressive.
i would love to be supplied with all that hardware and build crazy computers for my job.

That's difficult to believe considering a single 980 (non ti) has a max power draw of 165W are you really doubling the wattage per GPU? Even looking up benchmarks for a single overclocked 980 the total SYSTEM power consumption doesn't exceed 400W and that's with everything CPU, GPU, RAM, MOBO, Lights etc.
Those monitors are also not cheap.
