Man this thumbnail really makes me thought it was 2017 again
Bro is actually time traveling rn lmao
A PC from 2015 in 2025 is vastly more capable than a PC from 2005 in 2015.
Getting my dad to understand that the 5k workstation he bought 10yrs ago is essentially a doorstop will forever be the bane of my existence.
at this point linus is just fucking with us with no beard vs bearded linus, he is most CERTAINLY time-travelling via EVGA time travel kit
Holy cow linus even brought back the earrings. What a throwback
That moment at 9:04 was pure nostalgia! The excitement of setting up the quad SLI bridge and maximizing the 3D performance is infectious. I love how you captured the sheer power of this setup and the fun of pushing old hardware to its limits. Calling it the 'Hummer of gaming machines' is spot on – this rig is a beast! It's awesome to see such a high-performance build from back in the day still holding up, even if it's a bit of an energy hog. Great content, as always
Even adding the intro back in…super nice touch to match the throwback Linus and throwback board!
Some people don't understand what 10 years ago is. That is just 2014.
When you held up the 4090 at 9:44 i honestly though it was an edit to make it oversized in comparison to the 980ti but then i remebered how big cards have got over last 10 years.
Watching this 10 months later squad
In reality, this video was filmed 10years ago, and Linus stole a 3090ti and a 4090 from the future.
linus slowly reverting back to pre 2020 is great
YOOOOO THEY BROUGHT BACK THE INTRO
I love this channel. It makes me feel like it’s 2000 and I’m on the couch watching TSS on tech tv
I remember being super jelly at lans when someone rolled through the door with a tri sli or quad sli setup, they always looked incredible. However, some would setup, take the side panel off and sit a desk fan blowing into the case and then spend the evening troubleshooting issues for half the games we played. When it worked it was seriously impressive (minus the micro stutter) but it made standard 2 card sli seem reliable and well optimised. Which it wasn’t. I do really miss this era of crazy configs but it was always hampered by bugs/issues. Today if you buy top spec workstation specs, it just works.
Love when you guys show off old school top of the line tech, and how the industry either went away from it in this case or actually stuck to it
lately these videos have been taking me back to 2016-2017. I actually love it so much
I still have this board sitting in case taking up space. I keep telling myself I am gonna through it out or sell it and then I see it again and I am like okay maybe next year. Brings back the memories of the good old days.
