It's an entertainment video. It's about as serious as a home improvement show on TLC.
Yeah, but is it entertaining to see people waste stuff?
Again, it's not even cool or useful. I'm fine with completely over the top builds or experiments, that's cool. But this setup poses as an actually useful thing, while it's the polar opposite.
They were asked to make a 100,000$ gaming PC. Even with bleeding edge components and storage out the ass, you're still 90 grand short. So a one-off, ridiculously over-the-top case is as good a place as any to put the rest of the money.
Also, the man outright said there is a not zero chance some Saudi prince is gonna bid for it.
He knows it's excessive and there are people that live in excess in the world.
