Reddit person Zestyclose-Salad-290 shared a video on the social media platform of somebody, presumably the person, assembling a PC completely made out of cardboard. In the video, you’ll be able to see them constructing a Genshin Impact-themed system, that includes the newly launched Ineffa character. It opens with what seems to be a micro-ATX motherboard that includes 4 RAM slots, two PCIe x1 slots, and two PCIe x16 slots. It additionally has one NVMe SSD slot, in addition to what appears to be like to be an AM4 CPU socket.
They unbox a fictitious AMD miHoYo 5800GT CPU, full with a protecting plastic cowl, and set up it on the cardboard motherboard. They then add a cardboard mounting bracket that makes use of 4 actual screws to maintain it in place. Afterwards, an 8TB ‘PCIe 6.0’ SSD was put in on the system, with a cardboard SSD heatsink cowl screwed into place. They additionally added two ‘DDR8’ 64GB RAM modules with LED strips, for a complete of 128GB RAM. With all these ‘components’ in place, they then put in a cardboard heatsink with a single rotating fan and related it to the cardboard motherboard. We additionally see a cardboard GPU, which apparently contains a twin eight-pin energy connector.
With that complete, they revealed a cardboard PC case that will take it all in. But before they added the motherboard build, they also installed a ‘128TB’ hard drive and a ‘2400-watt’ power supply. Once everything was in place, they plugged the power cable into the cardboard PSU and hit the power button. This turned on the cardboard fan and its RGB lights on the CPU heatsink, as well as lighting up the LEDs on the cardboard RAM. To top it all off, they added a working vacuum cleaner to the front of the PC case and created a small cardboard display showcasing some Genshin Impact clips.
We can only salute the effort that went into this build. Although it’s not a real PC, the size, details, and PC-building procedure that went into making this video are spot on, except for the inclusion of PCIe 6.0 SSD and DDR8 RAM. The only thing that the creator might have missed is adding thermal paste to the CPU — but, honestly, how much thermal paste does a cardboard processor need?
