Highlights
Kyle set out to use his engineering knowhow and AMD's money to build the world's most powerful gaming table with two computers
The table has a recess playing surface with a removable topper to convert it into a dining table when not gaming
The table was inspired by Couteau Gaming's design to store the removable table topper within the table legs
Kyle designed the table to fit two gaming PCs, one in each leg for symmetry and extra cooling benefits
The hardware holding the table together includes threaded inserts, horizontal bars, and grub screws
They build two high-end gaming PCs with AMD Ryzen 7700X CPUs and Radeon 7800/7900 GPUs
The PCs connect to monitors upstairs via long optical cables through holes in the walls and floors
Kyle uses the table for D&D with powered USB-C screens that will magnetically attach to the tabletop
The finished table looks amazing with the red playing surface, removable accessories, and embedded PCs
Kyle's new dual monitor setup includes a 3440x1440 165Hz QD OLED with incredible image quality
They use optical cables, USB extenders, and in-wall wiring for noiseless, long distance connectivity
The final gaming setup with high-end PCs built into the table looks awesome and performs incredibly
The project took a long time but they transformed the space with a custom gaming table and battlestations
The systems may be overpowered for Minecraft and It Takes Two but deliver an ultimate experience

I know I shouldn't be surprised Kyle
given it took you 3 years to make a
screwdriver but really 2 years and
$5,000 to plan and build a table that
not this
table this table
oh Kyle set out with a simple goal to
use his engineering knowhow and amd's
money to build the world's most powerful
gaming table one computer not enough two
computers sounds good
All That Remains is to see if we can get
through the rest of this without killing
each other you cut this one the tubing
kind of looks can you be less of a
downer what it's AMD $5,000 ultimate
Tech upgrade baby roll the
[Music]
intro guess who's back guys it's AMD
with another chance to win a sick
giveaway they're giving away three of
their ryzen 8700g processors all you've
got to do is head to our Twitter at the
link down below thanks again to AMD for
sponsoring this series before we build
the table I need to see how much stolen
goods there is here now you planned for
me to be in this room so obviously
there's not going to be anything here no
there's no stolen stuff in my house
canned goods huh yes my wife and I used
to can a lot um we've stopped is that a
euphemism for what you stopped when you
got married I guess no when we had kids
did I miss something am I getting old
this area is like kids Central mate um
it's my kid was the first product tester
for that thing realistically though I'm
not upset about this what I'm upset
about is that engineering sample don't
see the ABCs of gaming it's in the kids
bedroom cuz we read it to them every
night before they go to sleep you do
that this used to be like Lego
Dimensions all the way across there all
my PS2 games PS3 PS4 Wii games um but
now it's just kids stuff so you see
there is hope you noticed he has a wife
right what am I missing every single jab
you do see my wife got it but like
Elijah gets it I don't freaking what do
you mean there's hope is this at all
plasma yes wow so I had a choice of
building two computers or upgraded the
TV I haven't won a TV in the last three
Christmas parties and I'm hoping to win
a TV at some point it does the job as
1080p so my sound system is I think a
Best Buy special it's Precision order I
wouldn't swear by it it produces sound
it's definitely not stolen from work
yeah I mean our company didn't exist
when that TV came out realistically I
wasn't going to find anything until the
tech Corner fiber optic display port
cable AMD paid for it oh oh it's part of
okay yeah it's part of the upgrade
there's no way that you're not over your
allocation of screwdrivers hold on this
is the second one that was made stolen
it no that's a test thing how can I make
the screwdriver and not you don't even
work in this department to us I
specifically put as much LT merch
everywhere sprinkled around the house so
every time the camera pans there's LTT
merch and this guy's whing about how
much LTT mer I'm clothed by your company
so I won this at the Christmas party
before lonus says this is his I broke
the power switch when I assembled it and
to open this again is such a pain in the
freaking bum hole that instead of trying
to open it again I just pulled the wires
out and now I hotwire the PC to turn it
on and off the LTT cap was in that whole
b-roll frame I I'm not good with caps
mate you don't even take stuff that
you're going to use and why did you
shave there is what all right why did he
shave this will be the video where I
explain it then I booked a Hydra facial
what the freak is a Hydra facial it's
like a facial treatment the point is
that it costs the same whether they just
do half of your face or whether they do
your whole face now I don't want to
troll origin but their systems not that
cheap there's no way you bought this no
I one a Christmas party no wait is this
one of those laptops that has the two
power bricks the two power bricks it
weighs a ton it's literally got like
desktop Hardware in it you know when you
said you were a gamer I thought you
might play somewhat more advanced games
I guess this makes sense though 3 years
to design screw driver I paid for that
one of those might be from the
office it was cheaper than buying a
server rack okay it works look this even
slides in and out you could have just
stolen one from work like everything
else I didn't steal anything from work
you found nothing from work I've stolen
no his phrasing you found nothing from
work that I've stolen ah we found Kyle's
games those were the kids games upstairs
I understand now wow no wonder you need
a gaming table uh there's more there for
all these Miniatures that you haven't
bothered to paint the game's just as
functional if you just play with the
gray ones right yes eventually I'll
paint it I've only been in this house
for about 40 minutes and I've already
heard I'll get to it enough times to
last an entire marriage hi how long did
it take you to upgrade your first house
upgrade it yeah before you employed the
whole company to work on your new one
yeah it took a while I mean you
prioritize your own stuff this is nice
this was a Kickstarter actually uh we
needed a custom board gaming solution
and this is just steel frame with
shelves that you can change the height
this cost uh after shipping about
$1,300 it's a lot of money for a shot be
careful what I
know what this is finished it's finished
painstakingly sanded and Polished I get
it did I touch anything okay listen bro
but you're like let's go let's sand it
yolo all the freaking time with you
can't do this with this thing it took
like two freaking years let the record
show how carefully I lifted this without
so much as jostling it against anything
else let the record show of all the
times lus has dropped oh my how do you
do that you just let the record show
okay that they're not a lot of dings and
scratches on the stuff in my house I
know when to be careful with something
what are you talking about isn't there
massive goues in your
bedroom oh my that didn't sound
good this is a good time to explain how
this table came to be well when a daddy
tree loves a mommy tree oh pardon me
I've
uh but the record show it was not me who
dropped anything all I was saying is if
it doesn't fit in the hole find a
different hole don't try and force it
into the hole okay I I literally
explained Kyle look here have a seat I'm
calm okay look I'm sit on your sit on
your calmness blanket no but I can't sit
cuz my ass is full of
stuff okay my back pockets are full of
stuff that's not better I have two SC if
you have a problem just get a colostomy
bag I got to be honest with you uh this
does not appear to be pre-tapped I don't
see place where this
goes oh yeah it doesn't go in there
sorry I'm going to have to take the L on
that one um no you need to put them in
this we no we can understand now that
it's very obvious when designing this
table I did what I always do I kind of
look for inspiration so I did a Google
search for what's already out there and
kind of came up with an amalgamation of
two that I really like I knew I wanted a
table that was a POA style table one
with a recess plane surface however I
like my tables to be multifunctional so
so I also wanted to have a system that I
can put on top very similar to the table
that we destroyed in the intro where you
could have a board game in the middle
and you can put the topper on top and
now have a normal dining room table now
the question is what do you do with that
topper when you're playing because if
you notice the big topper that lonus and
Elijah walked in earlier in the video
when we had to take it off the table it
needed two people and then we had to
like put it against the wall and was
awkward as flip so the first inspiration
was from a fow Canadian by the name of
caute gaming if I bushed the name
whatever they designed a system to house
the table toppers within the legs of the
table which is way better than just
throwing it on the floor now eventually
eventually I will have dividers that
will hold this in place you can see how
the actual slats rest yeah there'll be
three on this side and three on this
side you will have a perfect triangle in
between the three leaves from each side
so you're going to put a computer there
so I designed it with one computer in
here to slide
in okay but then I thought well the
other leg is going to be awfully lonely
so we may as well just make it
symmetrical and stick another one of
these on the other flipping
side huh nice legs thank you I work on
them every day what's the next piece
y ready yep oh oh it fell into one slot
that's not in mine you are not wrong
that's the nicest thing he's ever said
to me oh I numbered
it oh yeah that look pretty cool
hey nice
nice oh my gosh took me too long to get
these are uh six-sided dice right so if
you turn them if you turn them up like
on one of the things there's numbers see
that's why I thought they were dice do
you roll them like as a bottle Flip or
like a oh balls no can you have four and
lus have one please okay well here's two
no no I want no no oh my give him number
four you take number one that's not
number four I think number one where's
your bathroom now is probably a good
time to talk about the hardware that's
holding everything together what we have
is these threaded inserts with these
horizontal bars that thread in to the
machine screw side of the threaded
insert then you face this d10 portion
upright and then you insert these into
something that rests over here then it
goes
into oh God I think the wood took less
damage than the ceiling you could just
have us move stuff and then it just
might not get damaged ooh got
him you put this inside the hole here
and just slide it in and it sits there
all that's needed is a grub screw inside
the top of this and it holds legendary
back Force machine screw not even
holding it lt.com knock to a screwdriver
it's on there now now I need you to drop
these inside the big hole with the Holy
side facing the Audi side okay let me
check if it's the holy
side I guess we got it
nice I'm just going to do the other one
cuz this is going to be quicker called
parallelization maybe we would have
finished the screwdriver faster if you'd
used it if I remember correctly someone
had a midlife crisis halfway through it
and made me redesign part of the the
freaking uh bit storage system sorry I
have a lot of pent up rage I don't like
all this fighting no it's good it's not
real fighting we're not really going to
get divorced that's what my last parents
said quick question for you were we
supposed to put the dowly things in on
some of them there's more holes drilled
that I needed what's your name
Elijah I put like five extra holes in
someone's wall what he's actually really
nice he's so nice such a nice guy
otherwise Elijah wouldn't have walked
out of there in one piece after
don't move it is this a bad time for
another Madagascar
reference move it I like to move it move
it oh King
Julian that's not screwing in very
nicely what we need to do right now is
flip why are the two strong guys on one
side oh Lordy looks good thank you it's
at this spot what happened no if he sees
it he'll never unsee it I am going to
see it the second you move your hand
anyway he said standing there all day
hey sweetie we might need the the the
that is a beautiful table thank you we
put it together oh I'm sure you worked
really hard yeah we did yeah I just he
giggling and swearing upstairs really
cuz the only person you were up there
with was uh the baby the last thing that
needs to happen is I need to put like a
million pocket screws all around the
bottom of the table to hold the rails to
the plywood you know that it's not a
pool table though right uh so why do you
need pocket screws there's no pockets
can't argue with that logic line is
Sebastian folks he'll be here all day
yeah I will there is way more extras
than just the table on float plane lmg
Dogg floatplane go check it out
basically me Kyle and lonus kill each
other for an hour it's great I have a
really important question how are we
going to measure and Trace out on the
fabric now that You' put the whole table
together I thought we were going to
trace the plywood onto the fabric uh
that sounds like a you problem it's your
table it's a you problem you'll figure
it out my angel you really smart he
seems stressed no I'm fine I'm not
stressed this is just my does he have
like a favorite meal or something I'm
fine our problem here is that we don't
have an edge that we can trust like
typically that's my crutch is I'll just
grab one that I can say okay yeah that's
definitely straight but this one is just
ragged as hell I don't think it's even
going to fit under there yeah that was
him cutting it at work with a random
pair of scissors so that means we are
going from scratch ass balls
here what Kyle y i really hate to be
that guy what what's up but I genuinely
think that we should probably be popping
this off and the best way to tension
this is probably going to be to run the
screws through it why no why do you need
to tension it look at it yeah I'm
looking at
it this is something you knew already
isn't it we talked about it yeah you put
under and now it's fine oh I'm going to
just pick up my cards here's what we're
going to do Elijah and I are going to go
build some computers and Kyle is going
to undo a lot of screws I was hoping to
build the computer today but he didn't
finish the table
so you decided I didn't to build the
camera nickl did don't he suggested it
this is your video you had full thing to
be for fun we've decided to do this as a
challenge I'm going to be building
Kyle's machine while that it was 30
minute
build builds Leon except I apparently
I'm getting thrown a bit of a curveball
because I have to pull the AO cooler out
of Kyle's current PC and you just have
to build a computer yes also we both
have only this space to work that's fine
I call the table also curve ball for You
Leon has some hard drives inside her
machine that she would like inside hers
nice he called Leon's machine this is
mine it was it has an asset tag for this
computer give it man these are nice
machines ryzen 7
7700x eight cores Zen 4 b650 I aorus
Ultra motherboard I got to say I'm
finding the size of these computers a
little confusing given that we're using
uh little tiny motherboards but shout
out Kyle chivalrous almost every other
his and hers element of these upgrades
that I've seen before she has gotten a
like B tier upgrade while he has kept
the best stuff for himself these are
both the same so far yeah I think
they're both the same throughout but
we'll find out I guess as we go see he's
not all bad hear that Kyle I have been
downstairs 5 minutes and I think I've
heard five insults apparently I chose a
more powerful computer for me and then
threw my wife out of the bus and got her
some cheap that's not at all what we who
that's not what at all we said but
thanks for admitting it hey Kyle what
kind of display did you get was it a
monitor or a projector brother look I
got the alien I got the alien wear one
that plof sucket what I know what kind
of display you got okay then why did you
ask cuz you're projecting I don't know
what that
means I don't see built computers why
don't you talk less and work more I
don't see a finished table that's your
fault that's your fault damn I didn't
know he got an oven as an upgrade cuz
you're getting roasted good choice of
ram though DDR 56000 cl32 well-
configured system you got to help with
this hey do you doubt my ability so much
that icon come up with a SP he did get
help didn't he no I didn't they also got
the 990 Pro the 2 tbte version in each
of these Kyle's is already pre-installed
so Linus has a bit of Advantage um but
yeah that's two terabytes for gaming
that's perfect now like that's a lot of
storage I really did draw the short STW
here in order to get this AIO out I have
to get out a whole bunch of stuff behind
this motherboard this computer is coming
completely apart speaking of Hardware he
paid for there is no way that this is
under budget what's under budget I'm
talking about that I don't think you're
within
budget which part which part the part
where you've got like two high-end
gaming PCs I thought I saw a 7900 series
GPU in one of them I can promise you
right now the computers are within
budget I paid for the entire board game
table myself ah okay that makes sense
see you later no please I just I
literally just paid for house cleaning
okay to be clear Kyle already had a
pretty decent machine ryzen 2600x 1080
TI it's just that
the new stuff is a lot better when I
first got this upgrade I was planning on
Thunderbolt but learning from this gu
mistakes I just plan to do Straight
optical cables so that's why we have
that optical cable and that's why that
panel is Off the Wall well that panel's
off the wall because I haven't closed
that panel from when I got heat
installed 3 years ago okay you should
have um said that it's off so we can run
cables yes it's off because we can run
cables so the other side of that hole
that we just shot comes out on the other
side of this wall so all we have to do
is run the cable
down across the floor to the computers
that will sit underneath the
table now it's time to figure out where
all these ssds are going to go hey Kyle
yep do you have three SSD slots on you
oh there's one on the back one on the
back and then I already have one SSD in
there and I believe one can go on the
underside of this carrier board oh God
he's trying really hard to contribute
right now he's doing good I mean I can
just go Kyle you are walking living
breathing content why do I feel like
you're um making content no shut the no
what's the what's the word when you
taking the piss no not taking um
patronize thank you that one I love
America okay well we we should I'm not
cutting it no no no no the last time I
cut this fabric put us in the situation
we're in right
now how's it going uh um I don't want to
say you're right just yet I just was
genuinely wondering how it's going cuz
check this out yeah that's awesome
that's literally exactly what you want
and now we don't even have to get the
cut perfect cuz we can just haveed Ed
you just hide all of it yeah how are
these cases to build in so far uh
they're triangular there is only one
case in the world that would fit the
exact design that I did and that's that
one what are you compensating for
nothing because um I have three kids so
it
obviously did you test fit if you have
enough 8 Pin power connectors for your
graphics card on this power supply yes
we do well I have different power
supplies okay let's use that one then
before you use a modular cable from one
power supply on another you need to make
one 100% damn good and sure that they
use the same pin out because otherwise
you will destroy what is on the other
end of it which is why I Austin check it
RMI and axi do not use the same pinout
unfortunately fudge um RMI may be able
to handle the high trans into this thing
though if I have to extract the power
supply then I guess I will when you said
that I test fit everything it was just
user error cuz you could have moved that
bracket a little bit to the left but I'm
saying if you had test fitted it that
bracket would have already been moved
yeah but I moved it on that one but not
this one cuz I haven't built on this one
don't blame the fact that you don't know
how to use the case on me did you read
the manual it's in Chinese but did you
read it I'm not an but it's
funny would you guys talking smack about
me while I was downstairs we didn't
actually please cut to the part where
talking smack about how I spec these two
machines shout out Kyle these are both
the same so far I can't wait till he
watches this video I know for his wife's
system we have the RX 7800 XT in this
case it actually mounts vertically along
this side here so he did give her the
worst system oh that's true I'm pretty
sure I saw 7900 XTX in his I guess okay
for the difference in price they could
have both gotten XTS but no he had to
have the top of the line I see how it is
I take back all the nice things I said
before my wife doesn't do as much gaming
as I do maybe she'd game more if she had
a decent GPU hey Glenn if you want to
see Power Supply D pinning it's really
cool just kidding it sucks 4 to eight
yep all right rock on we just made this
cable work you see this oh my God what
do you have a c19 power cable are youing
kidding me all right I have a 1250 watt
in my old case I'll just bring it up
what you're joking it's 10 years old oh
it's it's an FXX power supply when FX
XFX when they still used to be a thing
which is why I didn't want to use it
okay this power supply might be 13 years
old but this thing freaking slaps it's
80 plus gold 1250 WTS it's actually not
even that big like it's that much
shorter than the 1500 WT that I just
pulled out of here and it's got a hybrid
fan mode thing it's seic made here's
something cool remember when we did that
video on that super cool Honeywell PTM
7950 thermal pad material that was like
a thermal pad that performed better than
thermal paste well guess what we got in
touch with the distributor this is
actually Kyle's doing and we are going
to be selling this right on LT store
half of that half of this okay L it
would be a little bit too expensive ah
got it anyway we're also going to be
selling individual 60x 60 pads if you
don't want to cut it and when I say 60 I
mean 60 mm but basically we're going to
have a legit source for this stuff
that's actually somewhat reasonably
priced for a change so you can use this
super cool thermal pad material I cut it
way too big oh my goodness for your CPU
I cannot for the life of me figure out
how to peel these stupid thermal pads
anymore pouring it in your fridge for at
least a couple of hours before you begin
what it's too warm it's a phase change
material and it's too liquidy right
now oh yes yes yes yes yes yes yes okay
face
change you want to see if it post post
it you're the host with the most post
then we shall call you
Malone hey posted man this thing is even
easy to Cable manage in too cuz like you
just hide everything behind your sexy
graphics card yep so easy all right
we're booting it three two
that's a positive sign three drives
let's
go dude these are heavy so this is it
this is it final form baby it's rock
solid man so um just across the hallway
or yeah it's just over the floor like no
no I just mean in in the long run
probably just across the floor and just
put like a stepping pad or something um
any other ideas I realized that this is
a little late for me to be coming to
this realization but these computers
being in the table serves no purpose at
all no you could just as easily Huck
them in the network closet and then
you'd achieve all the same absolutely
noise and and cooling benefits UPS
absolutely but how cool is it to have
two computers in a board gaming table
actually I take that back we play DND d
a lot and even though we play in person
we use an online program to move the
characters around a company called
wormwood makes pretty much the exact
same top I reverse engineered the top
from videos they made of how they build
it so you ripped it off kind of I
reverse engineered it I so you ripped it
off I got so close that we found out
we're in breach of a patent that they
just
filed in my defense they hadn't done the
patent when I started this project it's
been fairly recent so we reached out to
them and they were good sports and
because of for personal use they were
okay with it okay and they were even
kind enough to send over what I consider
in my humble opinion to be the main
reason why I chose the top is the
ability to have magnetic attachable
accessories okay now you obviously don't
want water where you're gaming right
right obviously that would be
stupid oh you want to you want to move
it
oh okay that's pretty cool you want it
on the inside no problem
and to show you how close I got to their
design this is from
them this is really cool yep but doesn't
explain why we need a computer in the
table so because we play D and D online
we each need screens I see so you know
how you did your car and you have those
USBC powered screens yes I'm going to
embed those into wood play surfaces have
them magnet into the table and run the
USBC connector into Mr USBC over here it
won't you work on that one but you can
plug it into the back of the GPU or the
back of the GPU yes yeah obviously
that's not going to happen now right
because the technology doesn't
exist I will figure out a way and then
we can talk about it but right now
they're going to the table because
they're going to look sick cool okay
that looks awesome though I'm going to
take some monitors and new peripherals
and I'm going to install them upstairs
sounds good a good idea see you later
bye I found Kyle's new monitors but I'm
not really sure what the configuration
is supposed to be
Kyle yes so you need that as your
secondary even though you have a 34in
ultrawide qdl Leed yeah absolutely this
is a 165 165 when you overclock it yes
oh okay pretty sick monitor what games
do you guys play together uh what's that
game called where you skate 3 no I play
balers gate takes two yeah it takes two
you play it takes two wow it only took
me two guesses we uh play Minecraft
together these are these systems are a
little overpowered for it takes two in
Minecraft that's fair um I used to play
WoW before my
okay it's a little overpowered for wow
can you tell me something you're going
to run that justifies the 7900 XTX do
maternal cyber pug cuz that's not
optimized I mean yeah are you going to
play it no got to love that AMD money I
just going to flex it man for the past
few weeks I haven't been playing games
I've been building board game tables
yeah I spend a lot more time setting up
my gaming setup than gaming these days I
get it it's been a while since I've
looked at one of these I'm sure I can
figure out how to put it together 3440
by
1440 165
this thing's awesome though thousand
nits Peak brightness HDR the only
problem for Kyle is that this is the
kind of monitor that until you've seen
it you don't really feel like I don't
really need that you know right but
she's going to be right next to it
seeing it I think he's going to end up
with two bro not all over my new screen
I have kids they don't use this keyboard
yeah they
do these are super super cool we had
quite a few people ask us hey we've seen
you use Optical display port and Optical
HDMI cables to run a longdistance
display a lot of times but what about
usb these are for mono Price It's called
The Blackbird 4K and this one will do up
to 50 m over a cat 5e cable and then all
you got to do is plug in power at both
ends and it'll carry up to four usb2
devices so that's perfect for mice and
keyboards and things like that even
though it isn't going to have the kind
of speed that you would want for say you
know a USB external SSD of course I mean
Kyle do you even need that up here or
this is just for gaming this is just
forgive then who cares wiggle the cable
no not too much just Wile oh good job oh
okay I got it I got it thanks D than
stop stop okay stop good job Dad we're
ready
dad oh you know what he does need us to
do though he needs us to see if that
monitor turns on if you guys see
anything turn on on there then you're
going to shout it's working okay hey we
have one working computer let's go all I
had to do was be the one who touched it
oh wait wait wait hold on hold on hold
on I see I see a crime being committed
over here I'm actually in the building
and someone other than me is reading the
ABCs of gaming for bedtime story am I
allowed to read it no all right we'll
let your mom do it
then yes how many more minutes that do I
need your dad for yeah not so long that
he can can't come up and tuck you in
okay deal yeah okay read I can read okay
okay okay B is for button pushing these
is fun to do which one's blue do you
know good job we've determined that it's
probably a GPU driver issue right now on
Elijah's machine because Kyle didn't run
ddu so he's got both amds drivers and uh
their friendly competitor so we're doing
a proper driver install and we're pretty
sure that once that's done
we're ready to go but hey look at this
all three displays are lit and listen to
that no noise besides my
server why is that there I haven't move
it downstairs yeah I I'm not not now
later this looks amazing is this just
staged for b-roll and all that yeah
pretty pretty much well it's going to
look freaking awesome I can't believe
how this setup turned out we got the
computers in they're on the rails the
finish on the wood looks amazing the
accessories just pop on and off oh man
speaking of pop that red surface turned
out absolutely perfect I can't believe
how well it goes with the table and
while the cable management to the
upstairs might need a little work
there's no denying the results that is a
night and day difference up there we've
got dual monitors on Kyle setup with a
3440 by 1440 QD OLED and I mean what is
still a pretty sick gaming monitor as a
secondary man does HDR look good on this
thing and even Leone's machine in spite
of being a hand me- down special looks
and performs awesome so thank you so
much AMD this ultimate Tech upgrade
might have been a bit of a
SLO but we got through it and look
neither of us is dead yeah I
mean you might have lost El if you guys
enjoyed this video check out one of our
other AMD ultimate Tech upgrades uh
maybe Adams if you enjoy the chaotic
energy
