Our Nerdiest Upgrade Yet – AMD $5000 Ultimate Tech Upgrade

Linus and crew pull out all the stops on a $5,000 AMD-sponsored makeover of Robert Oakes’ setup, spotlighting an AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT-powered NAS build for video editing and massive data storage. They pack in an MSI B550M motherboard, Corsair PSU, top-tier RAM and NVMe SSDs, plus a Sony Cinema Line FX30 camera and Samsung Q800D soundbar to level up the home office vibe.

But it doesn’t stop at PC parts—there’s new streaming gear (Focusrite Scarlett Solo, Yamaha studio monitors), desk accessories, nerd collectibles (Funko Pops, lightsabers) and even a vintage VCR for kicks. Expect DIY performance tweaks, budget vs. premium product reviews, and plenty of laughs unpacking random treasures. Full tour and deep dives await in the video!
