If you have a bevy of children, or lots of poor friends, getting them all gaming at once can be rather complicated, requiring multiple systems and that takes up a lot of space. But what if you could get lots of them gaming on just one system? What if you could get seven of them doing just that?
That's what the guys at LinusTechTips set out to achieve with a new monster Ultimate Virtualized Gaming Build and somehow, they succeeded. Using seven AMD R9 Nanos, over 256GB of DDR4 ECC memory, equating to 32GB of memory per system, eight terabytes of SSD storage, a pair of Intel Xeon E5 2697 CPUs all plugged into an ASUS Z10PE-D8 WS, powered by an EVGA T2 1600W PSU.
There was a massive water cooling loop to fit into the Caselabs Mercury S8 chassis, which is perhaps the most complicated part of this build, but the end result is so worth it. The monster system not only performs fantastically when powered on, but it looks amazing too, with water cooled GPUs, CPUs and an impressively air cooled chassis as a whole.
Of course it could cost you as much as $30,000 to put a system like this together, but perhaps that's worth it if you have a lot of friends you want to get gaming in a smaller space.
What do you think of this rig?
