The Xbox One X just isn't powerful enough for us, so we decided to take matters into our own hands, creating a sleeper PC in an original Xbox chassis.

    1:48 I feel kind of old hearing an original XBOX described as "vintage" when I had one new when I was 8 lmao
  • @Tyler-Kearney

    I started DYING when Alex pulled up the screenshot of Linus' response. 😂
  • @emberrr577
    Linus: "We're using this RTX 2070 from Zotac" Me: "Hey, I have the same card!" Linus: "We need to cut the shit out of it" Me: *Physical pain
  • @WalcomS7
    The original Xbox is considered vintage gaming hardware now. I'm going back to sleep.
  • I remember when I was about 7 or 8 years old, the original xbox had just come out and I wanted it so bad. We didn't have much money, so I didn't get one until quite a few years later, but I still remember seeing them in the stores and the feeling of how cool it would be to have one. It's amazing how fast time goes, but nothing can replace the wonder and amazement I felt back then. Im still team xbox to this day lol.

    Jesus, when that rgb changed to red, there was some mixed feelings with flashbacks
  • @McMeatBag
    When Xbox is considered "vintage". I'm old now
  • @KevinBein
    This is still one of my favorite projects that you guys have ever done... and the fact that it has more power than my actual desktop PC is just a little sad.
  • @8KilgoreTrout4
    "We took the credit card...." bahahah the look on your face after
  • @dave.004
    Next: WORLD'S FIRST RTX enabled GAMEBOY ADVANCED!
  • @Tonatsi
    6:19 Here; we see Linus having an argument in his head about whether or not to revoke the credit card privelages of his employees.
  • linus being so particulate is what actually keeps the shop business working properly, good standards and no fake compliments, im suprised how cool he was when he saw that shit first draft, and then buddy spent 800 of shop money
  • This looks like one of the projects that turned into way more work than expected. Way to see it to the end!
