one CPU the 16k gaming station but all of those had something in common nobody in their right mind would ever actually buy them so today the goal is a little bit different we're building the absolute highest end gaming pc that we would actually recommend so it needs to be blazing fast but also stable it needs to be well expensive but also something that we could with a straight face say there's a chance someone is actually going to buy it so we are talking a pre-binned 9900 ks at 5.1 gigahertz from silicon lottery we are talking dual rtx 2080 ti's and air cooling because guys it doesn't make a difference and this video is brought to you by glassware instantly see your current and pass network activity detect malware and block badly behaving apps on your pc or Android device with glasswire use offer code Linus to get 25 off at the link below to help me in my quest to build the fastest gaming pc money can buy i've enlisted Jake you got a little something on there just go ahead yeah just rub that in the challenge though is that due to bc guidelines we actually have to stay at least two meters apart from each other here's what we're gonna do uh you're gonna take that end of our very long table and i'm gonna take this end you're gonna focus on the case i'm gonna put the motherboard and all the components on there and then at the end we're just gonna you know really wow it wasn't even me hard drives cables i need those are yeah but still let's kick off with our CPU choice now obviously AMD ryzen 3rd gen processors deliver a ton of value but when it comes to absolute balls to the wall gaming performance thanks to their slight single threaded performance edge Intel still comes out ahead in the majority of games now with that said as games start to take advantage of more processing threads that could change and something like a 3900x or a 3950x with four or eight more cores than this one respectively could beat it maybe we'll try out some apex legends when we're done building up the machine but for now the king of the roost really is still the 9900 ks and this one is a little bit special so we got this pre-binned to 5.1 gigahertz at stock voltage pretty much right i think it's like 1.25 a little bit boosted from silicon lottery now we would have bought the 5.2 gigahertz one for what is it like nine hundred dollars it's like eleven hundred eleven but they were out of those thankfully for my wallet because they did not just provide this to us which is great thanks for buying cpus on the company dime Jake love it well they gave us a discount all right it's only got eight cores and 16 threads compared to a top end verizon with up to 16 cores and 32 threads especially for the price we paid but in most games that shouldn't make that much of a difference we will fire up some apex legends though just to see now obviously case choice is a little subjective based on you know what style you're going for or how many fans you want or what radiators you got but for us we're basically just looking something with the most airflow possible because we're gonna have a lot of hardware in there that's 220 atis 500 watts and that CPU overclocked is probably 250 maybe so something like this the pco1 from liam lee with nine fans we're going to completely load it up with knock to us here we are should be plenty of airflow for our setup for motherboard we're using the maximus 11 hero from ASUS we could have probably gone with the code with its like cooler looking aesthetic and better rear i o but there's no vrm difference so given that this is all about performance and most of the motherboard is going to be covered by well all the money we spent on performance with these graphics cards there was no purpose to it now their top end board the formula has like water-cooled drams and all that good stuff but again no real difference in performance and more air cooling anyway so as always the process is lift up the ARM align the little golden triangle with the little uh dot on the motherboard or the little triangle on the cover insert the CPU put down the hold down and lower the ARM this will pop off hold on to this in case you need to remove your motherboard in the future if we were truly trying to be unlimited budget with no bounds we could have gone with the 1600 watt but we wanted obviously to be a little bit more sensible so this is the 1000 watt prime titanium unit from sea sonic they make awesome power supplies totally not sponsored we just love their stuff because we're not using subzero cooling and extreme overclocking or anything crazy like that the only way we can squeeze more performance out of our system is by getting faster components in the first place so we've gone with some 3600 megahertz cl 14 sticks of trident zeneo from g-skill these are a combination of high speed and extremely low latency and we've got 32 gigs of it which i'm not expecting to be a bottleneck for gaming anytime for at least the next couple of years as for why we went RGB honestly we wouldn't have spent more on it but unlike the old days when you used to compromise some of your speed to have RGB lighting nowadays the high-end stuff is just a lot of the time RGB i'll make the rules okay one of the objectives we set for ourselves when planning this project is that it needed to be stuff that was off the shelf something you could just pick up and buy or add your shopping cart and build in a couple days so we went with cable mods pro cable kits in their carbon color which should match our ASUS board really well that's gonna look awesome one area we did go a little over the top was our SSD z we're gonna run two samsung 970 pros in raid zero but i don't even mind this because compared to their 970 evo it uses mlc flash so we should get extra longevity out of it and quite honestly the choice to go with 2 and raid 0 was more just about having 2 terabytes of capacity and less about trying to get more performance by raid zeroing ssds honestly it makes very little difference once you go to an SSD as we demonstrated in this video right here oh now there's a dent in this hard drive now you've got to be kidding me what is the little one when we're working on a showcase build more often than not we will use a water cooler even if it's an aio water cooler just because the amount hey the amount of extra space they leave around the socket and the aesthetics of the tubes and the led fans and all that cool stuff looks really great but the cold hard truth is they don't actually perform any better than a really high quality air cooler like this Noctua nhd15 and now that Noctua has a black version of it water coolers don't even look that much better jaku where's the exhaust on this case top or back bottom bottom you're going bottom exhaust so you want me to have the fan blowing down i mean i can't uh can you no okay well yeah the options are back and there's a hole here but there's not gonna be a fan okay just just do it whatever there's gonna be so much airflow in this case anyways it's not gonna matter these are hard drives these are gonna hold all the stuffs we need that's why we chose them that's why we chose them you're probably thinking wow 16 terabyte iron wolves those are overkill and uh you'd be right um we just had two spaces in the back of this case so we figured let's just use those extra drives seagate sent us and throw them in the back of the case to fill those slots man it's kind of crazy to think that this is 32 terabytes of storage just in this little block right there i know right my first computer that like i remember our 386 or whatever it was had a 100 megabyte hard drive and then we upgraded we got a 600 megabyte one and i would always have to like move programs off the 100 one because my dolt family would install everything there and i'd be like no we have to put everything over here this looks stealth as f all it needs now is gpus i'm wearing our GPU shirt lttstore.com i can't imagine a situation where i'd be like the product manager for x motherboard company and been like you know what we need red SATA cables this is what we're gonna manufacture in both i just don't understand why things are the colors that they are by default why aren't they just black in the first place why was red ever or these these are worse yeah dude okay you wouldn't remember this you were probably too young but Gigabyte used to ship powder blue ones oh yeah it was pretty awful and that was on their high-end stuff back in the x 58 days the best though dfi uv yellow oh wait wait is this the Gigabyte one you're talking about these things no that's Intel those are sick those are uv blue those look awesome with the uv light those things are awesome big pp oh they're big pbs they're 3000 that is so unnecessary it's amazing here's your fans oh my god why well i can't hand them to you can i well yeah i guess you're right they're also like knocked to a fan so like i could probably throw this at a wall multiple times and it would be fine you could probably throw it at a tv and the tv would break not the fan these are gonna be real close together is this the right envy link bridge yep ooh yeah they're gonna be toyed so what i'm gonna do to make my life a little bit easier is plug the 8-pin connector in now you can't tell but this is my life being easier that is such an annoying ringtone only because it's the one that i used to use though that has woken me up at like four in the morning for a flight so many times in my life oh my god it doesn't fit that doesn't fit oh my god oh you've got to be kidding me what are you kidding me oh no that's so bad let's just switch to an aio i guess i look pretty good you're not even paying attention so we'll get the graphics cards plugged in get an os loaded up and we'll try this thing got a little update for you after we completed the build we found that with the pci express slot spacing of that motherboard there was no way for us to install our two triple slot cards in such a way that the top one wasn't going to absolutely suffocate so we switched to the MSI z390 godlike it's got a bunch of great features including support for overclocked memory 18 phases of power fancy onboard audio and most importantly a much better slot layout so that we can get one extra slot between them for some extra airflow with the new spacing our cards are clocking up as expected and everything is set up for the showdown as it turns out our 5.1 gigahertz pre-bin CPU is 750 exactly the price of a ryzen 9 39 50 x 16 cores so Jake is over on the other side at the studio there because he doesn't have a sore throat and he has an identically configured AMD system that he's going to drag race against ours telling us once and for all if we actually picked the right gaming system because when it comes to other things 16 cores definitely a lot more than eight so so we're not going to be looking at anything other than gaming here for shadow of the tomb raider we're running everything cranked at 4k with the only exceptions being that we're not running rtx dlss and we have turned off motion blur we're using taa for anti-aliasing and we're ready to go i'm at like 80 FPS and the opening sort of move around lara all up around 90. drumroll average FPS 103. average FPS 97. ah i win by ooh five percent all right here we go boys three two one all right i'm 500 and change benchmarks done my average is 381 what's yours uh 300.8 that doesn't tell the whole story though so we're gonna check our frame view numbers in notepad plus plus here render minimum 13.5 oof i'm at 25.7 double the frame rate in the smoke 99 of my frames were over 99.5 uh 99 of mine were over 85.4 okay so that's actually a significant win that's about a 20 uplift oh my god this is bright the HDR oh my god like so many games it doesn't have any support at this time for multi GPU so we'll be using just one of our rtx 2080 ti's uh we're running everything on ultra nightmare with HDR at 4k uh what difficulty level you want Jake i'm too young to die ha hey got him all right here we go boys let's uh rip up some demon daddy oh wow i'm gonna die how are you gonna die oh oh man oh man i'm looking at about 86.6 on my render average and then render 99 one two three four 69.3 so that's a 10 advantage here which surprises me because vulcan tends to favor multi-threaded processors more with that said the 9900 s is still an eight core 16 thread processor and there's sort of a limit finally it's time for apex legends we're running everything at insane slash maxed out we're running tsaa and uh we have no FPS target desync disabled pick up a second weapon oh yeah pick up another weapon i grabbed the spitfire it's the second on the left then i'm going to switch weapons wow when you really max it out this game's kind of heavy eh i averaged 96.8 87 and a half i thought i was gonna win this one ten percent up i mean i guess that's what a pre-overclocked processor does for you but uh all right well it looks like we done did okay we wasted a little bit of money on a second graphics card most of our games didn't really get much benefit from that but other than that it's looking pretty good it seems like a pre-binned pre-overclocked CPU from Intel is still able to edge out AMD's 3950x which is their fastest gaming CPU with that said the situation might change when AMD launches their 4th gen ryzen processors which are rumored to be built on tsmc's 5 nanometer node really i didn't hear that actually that's insane yeah it's gonna be interesting mission accomplished then without spending extra money on things we don't need like 18 core processors we built the unlimited budget gaming pc and it really does perform better than something priced the same but that isn't 100 focused on gaming with that said i'm not recommending that anyone run out and buy this exact configuration particularly
