We’ll stick to The Sims 4’s build mode.
12 gaming PCs networked together for $1,000,000???
I think it’s bad reporting. It’s a $1M house that they spent $100k for a custom game room. No one is that stupid to pay that much for so little.
Nope, 22… Article says that’s 75k.
And each one is in custom “hideaway” cabinets that they said cost as much.
They didn’t do anything cheap, and once you get to a certain level, everything becomes crazy expensive.
This is the type of shit you do when you’re the problem and money is an afterthought.
I don’t know why anyone would celebrate it.
Yes. This screams of inadequate taxation.
Ok, so I was right. The house is a $1m house, not that they spent $1m to make it a lan party house.
Nope.
But at this point I don’t understand why you haven’t just read the article…
Did you not read?
" The house overall was a 7-digit number"
Nowhere did they say they spent $1 million for the PCs, networking, and custom desks.
Bud…
You’re having a separate conversation than anyone else…
This isn’t the first time this has happened, and I don’t think me putting effort in has ever helped you understand anything.
I’m sorry, I can’t help you anymore.
This isn’t the first time this has happened
How about a quote from the article where it says they spent $1M just on the Lan party part of the house instead of insults?
I said they didn’t spend $1M only on the Lan part. You replied, <sic>“$75k on PCs from the article plus custom desks”.
Then you got hostile?
Edit: I scrolled through your history and only saw a long list of your posts that I up voted. I’m not sure what you meant by “this isn’t the first time” as if we have a history of arguing.
Agreed. The lan aspect of the house did not cost $1 million. The house did. The house minus the lan party section still cost a million dollars.
12 tables, 12 computers, 12 monitors, 12 chairs, one switch… Does not cost a million dollars
Spending all that money to end up gaming on a membrane keyboard and OEM tier mouse.
TBF, some OEM mouses are among the best I’ve used in my life.
PC gamer doesn’t need to inject ads. They have nothing of substance to add.

Thanks for the links to the sources. It was interesting to read the backstory on how it came to be.
I hope they invested in the ventilation
From the article, they made it an emphasis.
Lan parties were a thing for a hot minute weren’t they?
In high school one of our friend group had a large garage, and they moved all the cars out of the garage, we got 60 people into the garage on folding tables, on chairs you brought yourself… Got super hot left the garage doors open for ventilation. Now that was a lan party house…
LTT?
