our team here at Linus Tech tips may be world class but why can they ever be
critical hey Linus you spend ages on a
fancy RGB Reservoir and then you covered it up with a mouse pad cool server rack
Linus why did you paint it bright pink well I'm sick and tired of all of this
nonsense and it's time for me to hit back with some help from Luke we got our
staff to send in pictures of their Battle Stations at home and we're gonna
see how closely they follow their own CEO's advice but there's a catch we have
no idea which setup belongs to which employee which means we're gonna have to
guess and it also means this video is sponsored by origin PC their Evo 15s
thin and light gaming laptop has this fancy HD UV printing or you can get
laser etching which would make it really easy to identify people's computers
we'll do our best without further Ado computer Zero's looking pretty zero
right out of the gate that's freaking disgusting this is worse
that means they have airflow problems it's trying to pull in through the gaps
what the heck you know what's really
gross about this is that this is actually a decent machine hard disk plus
two terabyte wait is there no SSD you have a 2080
and you don't have an SSD I don't see
why like I'm not like shaming you I'm not
being like Oh you're too poor for an S the ssds aren't expensive anymore 2080s
are oh okay why even get tempered glass
if you're just gonna make it horrible why did you send this picture like this
desk setup is pretty sick Naya numpty
hell whoever it is games needs extra
batteries Vapes oh wait Vapes I have no
idea I'm guessing Dan it's Scott Scott what a dick why don't you have an
SSD Scott you know what I should have known from the mug
it had to be someone with an accent Foreigner sick rig okay this is a lot
better wow that's very clean 30 series did I
build this gotta love the durbauer yeah I built this wait no hold on this isn't
Nicole's room they're blinds like shredded I don't want to see the light
whoever it is still lives at home because otherwise there's no way you put
your TV in your bedroom they're into records wait oh there's pictures there's
pictures okay they're white hey that narrows it down a fair bit they
also have sunscreens yeah
okay definitely a creative type I am
saying Emily sedden but I have no idea
I like your setup Sven I've hardly met Sven so I wouldn't have had a chance
Sven Works in sales okay Luke you gotta start guessing five five
yeah yeah oh my God I don't recognize any of these
I don't know I have no idea it's the writer of this video
I'm starting to panic a little bit very fresh and clean I don't think I'm going
to get any of these
you'll get some get some no I'm
I'm I don't know who this yes for this one wait okay hold on
hold on hold on this is like development stuff okay who is it Luke help me out
here this has got to be your team oh it's got to be Peter then yeah okay
we got one we've got one this is too easy Peter Peter works on our internal
like Inventory management system this is a sick setup it's also Nicholas ploofs
I love that it is even worse even more
cluttered after I fixed it there's a lot of things going on though
there's a lot going on it's fun and interesting oh my God ploof it's still
not cool to clip your nails at your desk and it's especially not cool to pluck at
your desk ploop's one of those guys that manages
to make things dirtier by cleaning them
I swear to God I left this system
looking pretty shiny look at this side
panel yeah I noticed that as you said it he used a dirty ass cloth to clean his
glass side panel or like a sweaty shirt or something nothing can surprise me
after I saw that gross Pizza board that he had though it wasn't as dirty as this
workspace but this is the the keyboard building station yeah you'd think you'd
get bored of building keyboards you'd think it means right in the name
I got two you don't have to open it you don't have to open the door why it
doesn't do anything well whatever no I'll do what I want how
does everyone hear of such like baller amazing Rings the lighting's uneven what
am I looking at here oh this is Ed wait
wait yes it is this looks like a setup
that Ed would do and have yeah but there's calipers on the table this cable
management is also better than Ed would do but
this desk pad hanging on one side off
the desk seems deliciously Ed so which side is
the employee I don't know so steel LTT Store stuff
all the time it's good stuff check it out I only have like half of mine left
I'm sorry I don't know
Nick callanan so now go right use Arrow key go right
please roast it to medium rare for the
amount of space that they have this looks pretty good this is kind of sweet
it's really clean you got that power play you got that sick keyboard very few
visible cables got the tissues oh boy right there man this way you can reach
them from the bed or the computer I bet there's a VR
headset in here I don't I don't know you just
oh I didn't even think of that yeah Matthew
from Creator Warehouse would totally be
this aesthetic whoever this is doesn't know how to use
you know wait what what am I oh Panasonic desktop editor
this iMac is a server you're using a
drobo this has to be mark from the editing
team yeah this is Mark
power for access point wait wait
this is a Next Level hack Luke do you
see what's happening I do see what's happening there it's actually it's
pretty cool they're using their built-in vacuum conduit to run Ethernet
how big is this brain oh my goodness
this is quite the write-up too that you should have gotten to with arrow keys
this is my home server my Daz direct attached storage for those of you who
rightly are not familiar with anything other than Nas because it's stupid very
cool vacuum cabling setup very cool
I love this setup I hate the mouse pad what
it's so small okay yeah but it's cool
it's like unusably small it's cool though what's the wood thing I guess
just a Shelf with nothing on it yeah it's not holding the monitor no it's not
oh that's interesting it looks nice it holds the PS4 and this is them down it
looks nice though these look like real plants so whoever it is you know cares
about it looks very nice clean fresh I
like the aesthetic don't like that the coolers positioned weirdly I mean yeah
so there's only so much you can do but the logo properly though I know and
really you have a Blu-ray Drive would be enough of a medium 4K off your
drive LOL
that's correct Marcus from the editing team
yes you TIE fighter yeah let's go oh no
I don't like the horizontal dual vertical I also don't like computers
that don't have their monitors upgradable I think this is
this doesn't have enough Nintendo to be Lloyd
wait startup disk Lloyd okay it's Lloyd
because I was thinking Lloyd I like the Tie Fighter I'm down with the
tiger I'm not down with the Tie Fighter I can't run it myself it drives me nuts
I I like one vertical on the side and
then horizontal horizontal Lloyd this is no excuse get an LTT desk pad on there
yeah cause your mouse pad sucks it's also in a really weird orientation yeah
acceptable cable manager what are they watching is this a hint does this help
us I have no idea some kind of donut DOTA two oh rocking the laptop daily
driver with the stand oh speaking of
laptops I guess we should probably tell you a little bit about the sponsor of
today's video this origin PC machine is sick it's got a core i7 12700h which
will boost up to 4.7 gigahertz and RTX 3070 TI in spite of its slim profile 32
gigs of RAM a terabyte of storage it's of course our mp600 and probably most
importantly a 1440p 15.6 inch 240 hertz
display so it's super smooth for gaming magic mouse pad with another mouse pad
beside of it neither of which are the ldt mouse pad whoa someone's a hardcore
donor oh oh and LTT Store is there okay
you should figure this out oh this is another developer uh I should have put
this together like insanely faster I apologize to who this is
Conrad yeah Dota 2 man he's like
insanely good at DOTA 2. oh okay all right you need a new mouse pad though oh
look at the wrist rest whoever it is has
even an oilier body than you yeah that's
that's gross that's really bad oh
wow it looks like
yeah that looks bad it looks organic it
looks like a 20 year old potato yeah it
doesn't look like a wrist rest it looks like it grew from the desk and formed to
just where their wrist was I do appreciate the the honesty in the
photos yeah I think that LTD water bottle has like Grime on the bottom yeah
no offense to you all but like Gamers should not own white things we have
three cats sue me okay well it's Jonathan because he left
his name it's the screenshot you know for
developers our developers are um not
very security conscious okay
nice enthusiasm which doesn't narrow it down that much honestly I mean Ed Emily
and some of the logistics folks are into knives I think Jamie's into knives
baseball oh Brock University oh look at
all right I it was one of my three it's Jamie got
him were there gonna be records you weren't
even gonna give me the records as a hint are those tires stuck in the water
bottle those words are those tires wait what why do you have tires in here bruh
not bad clean it's clean I like the lighting oh
whoever this is knows how to take a picture all right plays guitar
I'm convinced already is this next oh that cable management I remember this
thing this thing was super cool there was a period where there were motherboards that just didn't have
enough USB 2 headers and they're just it seemed like there was this proliferation
of USB 2 things like you know every RGB
thing in your thing had to plug into a separate header so this was a way to
take one header and turn it into a bunch of headers I also think it's kind of
neat that they have their peripherals in there if the connect if the connection is still good then we're good I'm like
pretty convinced I know who this is okay you gotta help me then Jayden yeah nice
I've been nailing I think I've gotten everyone on my team so far
your team's a lot smaller okay we got
the Flex Seal we got the lube got
candles oh my God there's the trifecta
they've got that same stupid light that you have Brandon what the hell also is
that a power Mac G5 kicking with a
legendary cooler in front of it the chair has seen better days it's okay
so is mine that's an LG TV monitor got the color calibrator okay I'm gonna take
the screwdriver hit maybe it's Kyle I've never seen a setup it is often Hoffman
wait what I was at Hoffman's place and the LG TV
remote how did I not get this oh your team's much smaller except I've
literally been in this location I've never seen the system I've never
seen any of their setups before I've never been to any of their houses
speakers how did I miss this that is
embarrassing let's edit it so that it seems like I got it Hoffman are you
editing this video can you edit this together so it seems like I got it this
is an old system rocking the z680s or no
this was the Z50 500 or whatever zoom out slightly Chronicles of Riddick I
think it's 2006 yeah oh yeah oh yeah got
that Lodge assist logic says case water cooling
okay so your OG enthusiast
old school nerd San Diego got the code
name there's a lot of things in this photo that I thought were Wicked at this
time sick setup who's this
I thought we already saw your setup
oh you put in two setups that's cheating that's hacks and your external water
cooler is stupid
gamer gamer oh I don't like this
ah this literally looks like it was thrown on the desk okay you have a desk
pad so why would you yeah I want a fantastic like giveaway quality tiny
mouse pad on top of it and Smurfs aren't cool okay now I'm in a bad mood and
these little pop-it things my kids play with those grow up hey okay okay that's
probably too too far away I've gone too far I've gone too far I'm a dial-up pack
I'm a dial-up bag how do you get your chair in here you got your router here I
think it's a I think it's a perspective thing I think the router's up on a desk and just barely and your monitor's
broken in The Pick of my monitor just does that sometimes like why is there
this massive gap between your monitors yeah that's pretty what how do you even
use your keyboard where do your legs go yeah it's not like ah this whole setup's
driving me nuts is this person really tiny are they really small
I don't know who this is I'm assuming it's a smaller
you know what man now I feel really
awkward about thinking that Emily had some of those sick setups that I saw
before Emily roasted it's kind of slobby
not gonna lie just just put things like
together stuff I thought you were cool bro whoa
what resolution of this picture yeah what's with these tiny pictures big
swooping desks so you're sitting on a bit of a circle why did you just like
nail the carcass of an animal to your wall and poorly that's not even Artful
it's like flopping over it's just there
those pictures it's so pretty it's so
not even you didn't even try oh man dig
the speakers that goes with the cool under table sound setup that really
needs some cable yeah this is cool so we have another musician here oh my God
is this that Nas chassis there's a pedal
in front of it someone bought this SLI because they didn't watch any of my
videos ew you don't even use a Mac and
you use that god-awful Mac keyboard
and uh turned vertical yeah what is that
that's how I was saying remember what the are these 30 90s
what the is this computer yeah you did it right good job power rails or Garbage
what are you talking about it's Den man uh man I should just start
taking wild swings what do you need all that power for Dan I understand the
audio setup now that makes sense but the
graphics cards streamer hundred percent nice setup I know this
one I know this one I know this one I know this one you do you have to guess I'm 100 certain no question I know who
this is well I know one of the accounting people has this are those all
pictures to the right of their desk do they have it hung oh I know they should
be fired for that I love it I love it that's an exhaust
so that's after it's already gone through these fins like the front of
this computer must be freaking disgusting there isn't even a picture
yeah you knew better no hold on this looks like a kid thing
they have kids they have kids okay okay wait okay he's narrowing it down that
narrows it down a lot who has houses how many people have houses
well me
okay stop hold on who has the most houses oh my God how did that not do it
how do you give a hint more blatant than me is it cold yes oh my goodness
actually it's true Colton has a lot more houses than me that's a stupid place for
his computer well I think he need it for the baby rumor oh his computer room's a
nursery now this is a sick setup I like
it is are they in a loft I really like this I enjoy how this is like the fun
and activity Zone because they have like the computer and all that kind of stuff
and then they clearly do some work or modification or whatever on the left and
then more on the left from there there's like board games and all this other kind
of stuff this is like the I'm gonna come do stuff and have fun I like this area I
like this setup got the screwdriver already most people don't have the
screwdriver yet got the full LTT fan
setup that's pretty sick I don't like again the EK logo is the wrong direction
it bothers me get over it got this got the CRT back there
stream Deck with a nice streaming camera
LTX 2019
first place so this is Chase yes oh okay
because nobody else who isn't David
would have a Rainbow Six Siege trophy all right I got it yes
I needed a full setup Chase okay okay well this is Brandon's
see you later
car person wait what wait what what the hell oh it's got to be Andy then
it's Andy okay done yeah that makes sense wall mounted PlayStation okay how
do you not recognize the ones that you like did well because it's changed and
he didn't have a butcher block thing he had a small oh the small form factor
machine is still here but the Mac the
Honda thing here the fact that he has that's awful light on his monitor the
wall mounted TV which is the light now I have no desire to have it but I just
want to have it to bug line it Mike stand with no mic on it big cringe
yeah yeah a very cool setup for back
then I like their older setup more than like their newer setup yeah get wrecked
I don't think the old photo is going to help you well the old photo tells me a lot more
than this generic ass new setup it says VFX artist react are you do you have
anyone that does that a lot that is also into keyboards oh yeah wow nice keyboard
yeah I don't know and one
Antoine okay yeah Antoine's actually our
keyboard guy for Labs wow do not do that
that's not cool
hard drives don't angle them I'm down
I'm down with uh you know being kind of
not great with the mounting of drives but don't angle it like that scrolling
on the blades of the fans on those lower octopus eels
those look like webs does this thing turn on I mean no wonder you use
industrial PPC fans because you're never gonna dust your computer not once whoa
that's wide what am I even looking at please don't
do drugs okay I have no idea then uh
writing team writing team oh my God it's
Gotta Be Tanner
oh sh Wait no this is an Anthony's machine is it no but no I built
Anthony's machine okay hold on hold on I'm going to off guys I'm going
around the room okay we've got oh my God
but Adam's technical
I mean they all are on the writing team I hate it we hired this guy
to give people Tech advice
for some cheats here okay there's a big one pretty cool in high school and
you're James yeah got it where's your computer bro is that
it look down there maybe motherboard got
knocked when my wife blew the breaker before I got a UPS oh
too soon bruh
too soon the company's not gone yeah I
know that Anthony has a huge collection of old console crap but it's like back
east or something some of mine too okay we've got the legs in here got a bulge
got a nice big bulge so that's uh good
for you oh wait oh this is David
well this is this is really awkward me talking about this right in front of you
that's why I said how I was like how does he not know yet this is crazy well
no I mean how do you not know anything about the people you work with those
author paint people that have old console stuff so this one has a lot of
hints first of all there's the clear Xboxes which he's been tweeting about a
fair amount I don't I don't follow you guys on Twitter
I just do not open that spill the tea Linus I only look at my notifications
that's it if you mention me I'll see it but other than that I don't see it vain
okay then you literally see his legs and
his setup yeah I know that the TV I recognize
and the fit legs you got you got fit
legs David and the balls
oh that's so cool whoa
and you couldn't even be asked to send us some more pictures or do a write-up
yeah there's like no hints in here but that's that's sick though is that half
inch hard line tubing what that's wicked maybe Jake's upgraded
head of the Labs former Marketing Manager for ASUS repping the brand has a
super cool setup makes sense has a super sick setup I knew he went threadripper
he was like yeah after being in charge of selling this stuff for so long it's
nice to be genuinely enthused for something for a change oh oh
oh where are these cables going okay
maybe we could like dust for fingerprints here and see like what is
this that's like do you have do you have like moisture problems in your walls or
what look at this audio setup though wait we
already saw Dan look they have it like suspended from it's not actually
attached to the ceiling shut up that's like Ace tier audio treatment okay who
takes this this seriously my setup before was pretty minimal but kind of
interesting is that a bone saw
are you threatening me this setup's really cool
and looks like very custom which I'm totally into my Vancouver setup my stuff
is still in storage so I borrowed a computer
oh no
discover Canada study guide so
relatively new employee outside of the country had to move local oh Sam from
the lab I wish I had a checklist so I at least knew which ones I'd seen already
okay six set up Sam yeah that's really
cool I love this mop
yeah yeah
playing wow external monitor yeah wow no
UI mods though so that's cringe
that's a yikes ah this poor three and a half millimeter
Jack with an adapter in the middle of a kitchen submitting for the memes call it
the just moved in setup I don't even know who Moved recently Angus Angus oh
accounting a lot of laptop setups a lot of laptop setups but there's also a
desktop so yeah controller for each
console are you guys trying to mess with us I
mean this one's more Square In fairness but the graphic is
I think I feel like it's time I feel like it's time to disclose the real
purpose of this
to put their mouse pad like this are fired yeah yeah good good and you too
Adam for that hard drive no cable management because my girlfriend
rearranges her apartment every few weeks so it's just a hassle honestly I I liked
the rest of it more so maybe that's her input because the the like plant and the
little thing that's on the wall and stuff is actually kind of nice yeah that's all fine and then the setup's
like definitely not the desk I would go with I hate really really really tall
desktops this looks really uncomfortable yeah
that mousepad you have so much room on your desk too if you just do everything
slightly less they're just sitting there yeah put them here yeah Sean you can do
better Sean from the business team it's not your girlfriend's fault because
she's moving the apartment around you just didn't put the stuff on your desktop and you can get a new mouse is
this a power Mac G3 this is a 10 out of 10. this is uh is that a bunk bed
legit that's the only one you're gonna give us
come on you know what there's no longer in this
location okay got it all right I know he has a
Hackintosh I remember that from his interview that's pretty cool oh Herman
Miller racing racing Sim thing yeah okay
there we go if I know the cat's name
Jake don't take this the wrong way
your cat's fat looks like he's gonna break this Butcher Block desk this is
definitely still home from work this has got to be stolen from work too oh yeah
oh yeah 100 100 okay this is easy Robert
dude though you've probably had it since you were
like 12 and your parents probably got it for you a lot of things here look like
that and I'm down with that idea uh what the except for that that's horrible
why is this a theme okay did you guys conspire to do this I literally didn't
know anyone did this I didn't know anybody ever did this until now like
remember that first wave of gaming laptops that had the touchpad vertical
yeah stupid how stupid it was this is
the equivalent to that this looks like fake this looks like it's rendered I
already guessed Lloyd right yes okay this is also something you've never
guessed this is someone I've never guessed is that a pool is this just
someone messing with us because this looks like freaking a
Tropical Oasis out here yeah I'm telling
you it looks like a render they could live at like an apartment that has a
pool Photoshop skills I don't know any anyone in the editing
Department oh I was so distracted by how nice everything else looks your mouse
pad come on I understand that our mouse pad probably wouldn't work in this setup
aesthetically so that's fine but neither does that one
Mercedes-Benz Mercedes that's the so
this person watches F1 I think because that's the Mercedes Drive Right
Lewis Hamilton OH
this has got to be Maria the fact that it's all Mac all the time
I actually talked to her so at her work function and he gets so triggered by her
just like Apple fanaticism we we like made fun of her
for a while the setup looks nice though I think you'd be more comfortable with a
bigger mouse pad I'm gonna die on that Hill whoa this is a cool setup I love this I
love it got the 3D printer this is great love love the PC setup right next to the
the work on things set up really he took a picture of your fish who cares that is
a clean setup like literally clean or it
was cleaned for this that is a lot of hard drives also yeah where's the garage
oh this is well this is the server oh that makes sense okay this is a Labs
person I don't know any of the new ones so
there's no point in me guessing them so sure Jake I like your setup Tim
oh it's so obvious now okay I didn't really think of Tim as Labs though he's
only sort of Labs he's like mostly done video stuff so far I do think that's all
the setups though but that's not all for this message from our sponsor origin PC
