Summary
Elijah finally wraps up Linus’s month-long challenge to build the ultimate 16-player (8v8) gaming setup, tackling everything from unboxing massive server racks and configuring ggRock images to sourcing mini-ITX motherboards, Radeon RX 9070 XT GPUs, NVMe SSDs, and Seasonic SFX power supplies. Cable spaghetti and networking gremlins at Whale LAN made it a rollercoaster, but the team powered through every headache and hiccup.
In the end, the beast is alive—16 synced PCs feeding frames to Asrock monitors, all fueled by Western Digital storage and decked out in ergonomic chairs. For deeper dives, hit up the Linus Tech Tips forum, snag some merch, or catch the full story on Floatplane.
