Can you guys help me convince my cousin that this is fucking retarded buying all this excessively excess shit for his new computer build? He's literally not even 18 yet and has been saving for so so long to get this enormous fucking stupid build.

If that build is real what the fuck. Get a 1080 instead of a 980TI, it is better and more price effficient. Get a 6700k instead of that beast he has in it right now, no game on the planet uses 8 cores so he will probably get BETTER fps with a 6700K for like 1/10 the price. And he better be running those drives in RAID or i will shank somone.
>>
Wait, did I see it right?

All that, and a single 980ti?
>>
>>55556371
Remove all the external drives, either switch to internal drives or dont get any at all. External drives die like every 5 minutes.
>>
>>55556371
Also, 32GB of ram is not only overkill it is useless, you will see litterally no performance differance between 16 and 32 unless you run like 3 games at once. The official /g/ recommendation is 12 but it costs like piss all to just get 2x8 so just do that.
>>
>>55556371
Just show that $8000 build to their parents
>>
This build has LTT written all over it
>>
>>55556371
>buying all your parts from 1 vendor
why
>>
pretty sure this is bait
>>
9/10 chance this is bait.

In the 1/10th chance it isn't though, tell your cousin he is an autistic fuck.
>>
>>55556477
Oi, Linus is chill. The problems come when 12 year olds cant tell that he makes his builds FOR FREE and would never stick 42TB of storage in a single case or whatever crazy shit he is doing today.
>>
I would say this is bait but it looks like it took way too much work. You know it's bad when there are people so stupid out there that you actually cant tell if somone puting a single 980Ti in a $8000 PC is a joke or not.
>>
>>55556371
OP Here.
Apparently he's already purchased all of it.

I've got proof if you need it. I've been advising him to take shit out of the build for so long but he won't listen.
>>
>>55556720

Gimme da proof. IF it is real, I wanna help this little shit not make a huge mistake.
>>
>>55556734
Like I said. He has already purchased all of it. After working at a grocery store for about 2 years part time.

........................If he already purchased it what do you want us to do? He fucked.
>>
HAHAHAHAHA, WHAT A DUMBASS

Tell that kid he's dumb as fuck and that he could've gotten a car with that money and had some leftover to build a decent computer for a grand that edits 4k
>>
>>55556671
You can edit 4K video with a fucking toaster if you don't mind it taking ages. If you need it to be fast you can do it for like $1500 max, unless you are trying to load up like 12 hours of footage in one go or some stupid shit. Also tell him if he needed that much backup he could have just used Amazon's tape servers for like 1$ a month.
>>
>>55556371
>800 dollar motherboard

What the fuck
>>
>>55556371

There is so much wrong idk where to start. Whoever picked out those components has done zero research and is literally just picking the most expensive shit.
>>
He could've built a faster computer for far, FAR less. Fucking idiot
