Although streamer and internet celebrity Dr Disrespect has stood out in the past in addition to his success because he was banned from the streaming platform Twitch, this time it is not about a scandal or controversy, unless you find it controversial how much someone spends on their computer.
Because Dr Disrespect presented his gaming PC in a stream – and it was pretty expensive.
Dr Disrespect had to put that on the table for his gaming PC
The colleagues from Dexerto took the time and effort to use the PC Part Picker tool to find the individual components of the PC and their current market prices.
The processor alone, an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990x, already costs over 5,000 US dollars. In view of the processor price, one can surely already guess in which dimensions the computer from Dr Disrespect moves in terms of price.
Together with an Aventum X case, two kinds of RTX 2080 Ti and all other components, the gaming PC amounts to a total of around $15,000, according to Dexerto.
Despite the research, the price is only an approximate estimate because it is not known which water cooling and which power supply unit Dr Disrespect is using. However, the estimated price based on the known individual parts will probably not be far off the beaten track.
