Unbox Therapy has turned unboxings into an artform, one that can get absolutely outrageous depending on the subject for a particular video. In the latest, the crew unboxes a monster $40,000 PC gaming rig sent to them by Xidax and combines it with their curved wall of stitched-together televisions for an incredibly impressive gaming setup.

Us peasants in the PC gaming world are regularly trying to find the least painful path to custom gaming dominance, but this Xidax rig just blows the doors off the hinges with top tier and custom creations for an absolute beauty that many would be jealous of. Here are the specs for the custom Xidax gaming PC that the Unbox Therapy team pulled out a massive supply crate and played some Rocket League with:
