Our Nerdiest Upgrade Yet is a $5,000 AMD-sponsored tech overhaul of Robert Oakes’ setup, centering on a custom NAS build for video editing and data storage. Key PC components include an AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT CPU, MSI Pro B550M-VC WIFI motherboard and Jonsbo N5 case, while the desk gets a Sony FX30 camera, Focusrite Scarlett Solo audio interface, Yamaha studio monitors and a Samsung Q800D soundbar.
Beyond the core build, the video packs in DIY performance tips, PC gaming accessories, streamer gear and even a vintage VCR reveal—complete with Funko Pops, lightsabers and nerd collectibles. Plus, there’s an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D sweepstakes, Floatplane-exclusive content and plenty of laughs as they bring Robert’s setup up to ultimate spec.
