I paid good money for this Dynex!
I know they've gotta fill time, but this is trite even by Linus standards.

Second hand parts are necessary.

This is exactly the kind of clickbait content Linus has been thriving on for a decade.
That GN video didn’t humble his ass in the slightest.

Is he gonna ignore half the features, pick used parts, not add the price of the dualsense, and choose a lower capacity ssd like all the others?

Used parts again. moron.
Just be honest and make a comparable console with the actual inflated fucking costs of PC parts. But no, cant insult daddy jensen and lisa kudrow so he'd rather embarrass himself on youtube all over again.

They should also add a stolen PC, which costs as much as a balaclava and a toy gun.

don't forget the stand too
Nothing is too trite for Linus. Lol

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
He is outright saying it's all tongue in cheek in this very video. I don't really watch the guy, but I feel like people are way over-triggered by stuff like this.
It really proves how great of a deal the PS5 systems are, not the other way around, and Linus is barely trying to hide that.
He says "second hand parts are necessary to beat your wonderful machine" lol.

This isn't hard. You can get a 4070 laptop for $1000. The value is insane.

This is the cheapest gaming laptop I recommend - and its RTX 4070 configuration just dropped below $1,000 ahead of Black Friday
Save $400 on the Asus TUF A15

4070 Mobile GPU is more like a 3060 desktop GPU.

In all seriousness the argument is stupid and ofc Linus is just doing this shit for view.

It performs like a PS5 Pro but with a better CPU

The suggestions get funnier every day.
Just the $1000 for weaker, hotter, louder and less durable hardware.

So, FSR-powered GPU, no onboard wifi 7, no bt 5.1, no cost of controller, no cost of shipping, fantasy NA prices... Plus one can argue that this is loud midtower, let's compare the prices after shrinking both the size and the noize to PS5 Pro footprint. Yeah, bud, sure.
Those videos are disingenuous at their very core, but FSR vs PSSR GPU thing literally a low point even for LTT.

No, but does they add cost of any controller or M+K? Ps5 pro allows you to control the console without any extra components
I'm not going to add views to Linus's video so son't know

TLDR: If you buy the parts new instead of used (lol) the PC is actually $904 and out of the 3 games they tested (TLOU1, Rift Apart and Dragon Age) one is about the same (TLOU), 1 looks slightly better but runs worse (DA) and 1 is just straight up worse (Rift Apart).
So you are spending an extra $200 for something that at best will be "about the same" in SOME games.
The pro is expensive but it's still giving you good value and the fact you can't really match consoles in terms of value (at least at launch) continues to be true.
It's probably going to be different in 2 years with different PC parts while the Pro will probably still be $700, but at that point beating a machine that's probably soon going to be replaced by the Ps6 isn't going to mean much.
