The Aesthetic PC Build: A Glimpse into Linus's New Creation
As I stepped into Linus's new PC build, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and awe. The Secret Lab chair was adorable, with its soft plush and vibrant colors. It was clear that this was going to be an aesthetic PC build, and I was eager to explore every detail.
One of the first things I noticed was the Titan Evo computer tower. The pink plush armrest added a touch of whimsy, while the memory foam armrest provided a comfortable resting place for my arms as I worked. I also appreciated the soft glow of the lights, which seemed to emanate from within the case itself. It was almost as if the PC was glowing with an inner light, like a beacon calling out to me.
But what really caught my attention was the BMO switch dock. This quirky little device added a touch of personality to the build, and I loved the idea that it could serve as a docking station for Linus's favorite games. The fact that it was supposed to be pink, but had been swapped for a different color due to availability, only added to its charm.
As I delved deeper into the PC, I discovered that quality wasn't always the top priority. In fact, there were some sacrifices made in order to achieve the desired aesthetic. For example, the GPU was not what one would expect for a system of this price point. However, Linus reassured me that it was still capable of handling demanding tasks.
One of the most interesting aspects of this build was the contrast between the cute and playful elements, such as the Dorito dust decorations, and the high-end components themselves. It was clear that Linus had put a lot of thought into creating a PC that was both functional and visually appealing.
In fact, I was surprised to learn that the total cost of the build came out to around $10,000. This may seem steep for some, but when you consider the high-end components and the attention to detail that went into this PC, it's hard not to admire its value. The monitor, which added a significant amount to the overall cost, was only $200. The lights, keycaps, and other decorative elements rounded out the total price.
As I sat down at the desk, surrounded by the various components of this build, I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. This PC was more than just a collection of parts – it was a work of art that had been carefully curated to create a unique and enjoyable experience.
And speaking of enjoyment, I discovered that the mouse was designed with cuteness in mind. The keycaps were high-quality, if a bit gimmicky, while the tactile switches provided a satisfying feedback that I thoroughly enjoyed.
As I began to game, I noticed something peculiar. As my fans ramped up, they created a gentle breeze that blew through the cherry blossoms surrounding Linus's workspace. It was as if the PC had come alive, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at this whimsical touch.
But what really caught me off guard was when Linus mentioned that he wouldn't spend this kind of money on it. That was until he started playing games – his eyes lit up with excitement, and I could see the joy radiating from him as he lost himself in the virtual world.
As we wrapped up our time together, I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for the opportunity to explore Linus's new PC build. It was a true masterpiece, a testament to the power of creativity and attention to detail. And who knows? Maybe one day, I'll be inspired to create something similar.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enThe Core i7-14700K may not be particularly cute, but everything else is!Welcome to the cutest PC!Everything about today's build is S-tier adorable, starting withthe motherboard.I mean, just look at the color-fire Miao B760M.Now stop looking at it.Not only is it more ginger than rose,we were turned off in a big way by its lack of featuresand settled on the Max Sun iCraft Z790 in White.It's more feature-laden for sure with more USB and PCIe expansionslots, but it is definitelythe first of our cute cost casualties.The MSRP is fine at $260, but the lowest price we could find in thewild was closer to $350.That is more than double the price of this similarly featured, butdecidedly un-cuteMSI Z790 board.Luckily though, the same is not true of our 32 gigs of DDR5 5600megatransfer Corsair Dominator Platinum.In our opinion, these have one of the classier implementations of RGB out there,and the specs don't suck that much, at least compared to otherDominator Platinums.Next up is our teeny-tiny 1TB 2230 Saber and then the SSD.Look how small and precious it is!Perfect for something with limited space like a Steam Deck,but for a full-sized rig.The $100 price tag means you could get a more attractive deal on abigger and better drive,even if you were trying to do a cute build.Like this cute segue to our sponsor.Ridge. Heads up, guys. Father's Day is right around the corner, andif you forgot, don't worry about it.Get up to 40% off Ridge at their Father's Day sale using our linkin the description,and pick up a great last-minute gift.We were somewhat divided on how to tackle the big box. I mean...There are novelty cases, like the Yeston Cute Pet case, which, Imean, are unique.And there are lots of regular boxes with colored vinyl stickersthat make them kawaii.But the more we scrolled Instagram and TikTok for ideas, the morewe noticed an overwhelming trend.The case itself was rarely the focus. It's the inside that counts.So the idea is we're treating the PC cooler C3T 500 more like anart gallery than an art piece.And it's slightly smaller size when compared to most ATX casesshould keep the proportions correct on our desk, butDavid what the heck is this just a white build? No no no the AIO is white with a screenYou know we already did the all-screen PC - right all-screen PC 3,babyOkay, as long as you don't mind paying the extra and pay extra you willThe Corsair ICue-Link H150i RGB with the upgraded LCD screen modulewith high-resolution displayLooks absolutely incredible in any theme to buildThough I can't say the same for the case's pre-installed fansI mean, they're alright, they are RGB and everythingBut the QX series from Corsair is a lot more pleasing to the eyeWith 34 LEDs per fan for smooth lighting effectsAnd...Daisy chaining for less ugly cable tangle-age. The only thingthat's really not cute about them is the price.It's ugly.You can't argue with the look of it though.I mean, this is clean.Funnily enough though,our first real individual aesthetic piece,the Seasonic Vertex Sakura 1000 wattis a power supply that's gonna end up being stuffedinto the back of our case, never to be seen again,which is a shame because, oh my goodness.Seasonic has attended to every detail here,creating a power supply that is as cuteas it is performant.Wait, no way.Even the cables are accented pink,saving us the cost of custom cablesfrom a third party vendor.That is a big win for our budget,or at least it would be,if this wasn't a very limited run itemthat's currently going for about triple the priceof the black model.Also.Really guys, you got one black connector and it's going to be frontand center in the middle of our build on our GPU.That is whatever a cuter word is for bummer.Tushy here?Thankfully, it doesn't really matter since our GPU is going to beusing these classic 8-pin PCIe power connectors.Let's go ahead and get everything cabled up, shall we?Now it's time to meet our GPU,the Power Color Hellhound Sakura 7800 XT.Like the non-Sakura version, it boosts to 2520 megahertzwith 16 gigs of GDDR6 memory and has an LED color switch.But obviously its most important feature is its colorway.Now, the Hellhounds of Legendaren't known for being adorable,but this is so cute.How high was the cuteness tax on this one, David?It wasn't too bad. It was less than a hundred dollars more than a regular Hellhound.That's a lot more to pay for a 7800 XT, but hey, at least it comeswith this adorable anti-sag bracketthat's going to serve us very well when we're decorating the case. Now for the finishing touches.There were two peels on that. Now that our computer is adorable, all we need to do iscutify the space around it becausethis simply won't do time to paint okay that is a cute colorapparently it'scalled pinky promise now to be clear there's a lot of things Iwould have donea little bit differently if I'd been the one in charge of gettingall of ourpainting materials and all that but doesn't really matter we arejust doingan accent wallanyway I'd hate for you guys to get bored literally watching paintdry here with meso while I do this David is going to show you some of our cuteperipheralslet's start with Logitech and the G705 mouse it's sadly not usingthe herosensor but it still has light speed connectivity for nearly lagfreeperformance and it's well constructed if slightly small for biggerhands butperfect for cute hands it's part of a well-rounded cutesy Auroralineup andand we grabbed the matching G735 headset for our setupwith its similar soft lines and matted white plastics punctuatedwith tasteful RGBand if you want to take your cuteness a step further you can getthe pink earcups,pink boom mic from Logitech or these universal cat ears that fit onpretty much any headphonefor just a few dollars. As for the keyboard, we are going so hardwith the Yunzii C68 Hi-Fimechanical keyboard, one of the sweetest little keyboard bases I'veever seen.I've actually already put in the Mixed Pastel C-Glass Linearswitches from Omnitype, andthese absolutely perfect in every way cat-shaped Meow Meow Squad keycaps from Keyboom and MeowrBang.Those are made up words.I mean, all words are made up.The cherry on top is going to be this white cold cable fromCableMods.Linus has gone to shoot another video, so that means I can finally think straightagain and we can do the most important part of today's video, whichis decorateboth our PC and our setup.Let's go.I think this looks absolutely incredible.And that's not just thanks to me.I had a whole council of cute come togetherand help me pick the parts for this.And so I want to have their reactionsto the finalized setup.And we're going to have that over in an exclusiveat LMG.GG/FLOATPLANE.But right now, I want to see what Linus thinks.Oh my goodness.I feel like I'm moving between worlds.Wow.You know, I think I could get used to this.What a relaxing vibe.How's this keyboard? Is it actually good?She clacks, she clacks, she moves.Okay, well, she's all right.There are so many layers.I see we've traded out our Bulbasaur bushes for Ivysaur flowers.Yeah, we've evolved.This is a nice touch, by the way.Yep.LTT Store OG pink and white water bottle. Hardly even noticed it there.First thing you're supposed to notice is the desk pad. What do you think?It's the cutest thing I've ever seen. I can't even complain thatit's not from LTT Store.We need to make something like this.I actually do agree with you. We need to do some more kawaii types of products.Is this a stream deck skin, or is this just like a special cuteversion of the stream deck?No, it's a special one. Elgato actually has a Neo lineup ofhardware.That's designed to be super easy, just plug and play, veryaesthetic.They have a webcam light, a mic, and I think it just kind of blendsinto the setup in a really pleasant way.One of the pleasant surprises I had was actually setting up thismonitor.I really like this base. It's white with speckles.It looks great.Evnia is Philips' new welcoming gaming brand.Okay.And they have really good monitors.This is a 41-inch, 4K, 138-hertz monitor.It's OLED.And everyone who walked by was commenting on how good it looks and feels.But they also had one that I was kind of considering, a 34-inch QT OLED, you know, QD--QD OLED.Oh, I just thought you meant you wanted the best panel tech.No, no, QT.Oh, I love the heart back there.That was Glenn. He made that happen.That is awesome.So there's a ton of aesthetic things.Oh my goodness, the Secret Lab chair is adorable.The Titan Evo with the pink plush, but also the memory foamarmrest.Oh, and they've got like soft. It's really nice. I'm so ready tolaunch my e-girl career.One of my favorite random touches is this random BMO switch dock.We don't have it plugged in right now, but it's a dock and you could actually have your screenplay through it. And we even got a switch case to match-ish.I mean, it's cute. It was supposed to be pink, but by the time we ordered it, the pink was out. Quality, I mean... No, no, don't worry about quality. It's cute.Did we run into a lot of things like that though?There wasn't too much. The trade-off is there is very little thatis budget in this build.Do you want to know how much it's worth?I already have kind of...So that doesn't count. I brought that from home.Okay, tell me.The computer was around $2,500.That is not that bad.Other than that the GPUis not what I would expectfor a system of that price.When I spec'd a very similar systemthat was not aesthetic, it was $1,700.So there's a big premium there.So you could basically afford to havea 4080 Super.Instead.Actually, maybe even better.You could get a 7900 XTX.And a 14900K. I could put that into my budget, so.Did you also do a not cute version of the complete setup?I did not, because if you're not doing a cute PC, why do you need a cute setup?Right. I mean, the Dorito dust should be enough decoration.Yeah, Dorito's dollar. Your decoration's a dollar.The whole setup, minus a few things that weren't included.$10,000.Shut up.Shut up. How much are these?Those are nothing. These are like, $6 a piece.It's the monitor.What is it?Where did the money go?The lights, everything.How much were these?Those are $200-ish dollars.There's a few things that I got that weren't included.So I will show you the total right now on screen.It should be a little bit less.What about this?It's like, $50.Where did all the money go?I honestly don't know.Oh, jeez!Scared the pants off me.What do you think of that mouse?You know what?It's a little small.Yeah, even for your hands.Even for my hands, yeah.No, no, no, no, no.Whoa, try to get over it.It's water.These are the cutest keycaps I've ever seen.I can't say I'm a huge fan of the key switches.Are you, you're a--I'm a tactile guy. - Tactile guy, yeah.These are linears.They sure are.I do like the keycaps though.They're actually pretty high quality for being gimmicky.Yeah, they're so cute.They feel great.I think the cutest thing though, is that--As we game and our fans ramp up, there's a breeze that blowsthrough our cherry blossoms.Oh yeah, that's satisfying. Oh, I feel like I'm a three-year-oldwith those games again, you know,where you're putting the shapes in the hole. This is veryrelaxing.I like this genre of games. Oh, I meant being in thisenvironment.Well, I thought you meant being next to me. You're part of theenvironment, David.I wouldn't spend this kind of money on it. Oh, oh.But it's definitely something that I can appreciateand enjoy now that I'm sitting in it.Far more than I would have thought that I would.Oh God.That's their house Linus.I know, I swallowed it all up into the abyss.Oh my gosh.How does this get cold yet?Good timing for your question.Great delivery.I need to play this game.I think I do too.And I need to tell you about our sponsor.Rocket Money.It's a pretty terrible feelingwhen you look at your bank statementand there's fewer dollars in therethan you were expecting.That's, this isn't right.And with more and more platformsswitching to subscription models,that nickel and diming is becoming increasingly common.But Rocket Money is here to help.Their personal finance app helps youcancel subscriptions, lower bills,and manage your money better.They can cancel your unwanted subscriptions in just a couple quick taps.And that means no more scavenger hunts on your \"My Account\" page trying to find the \"Cancel Subscription\" button.I know it's here somewhere.
