LAN-Partysare a phenomenon from the earlier times of video games, in which passionate gamers have teamed up to spend the days and nights together in front of the PC. Knalle duels were held in exciting shooter matches, while on the other hand, far too high amounts of caffeine were consumed and different files were sent around.
Due to the increasing popularity of consoles and the significant improvement in the online functionality of video games, LAN parties do not necessarily belong in the past, but have become quite less common. That is why we are all the more pleased about the story from the community when a father organizes a LAN party for his child.

Father organizes LAN party for his son and shares the setup
The Redditor Pnilled shares with the community that his son wants a LAN party for a twelfth birthday. This is a nice pretext to share the impressive setup of a total of ten PCs that the father organized himself.
The creation of the setup:In oneCommentPnilled also explains from where he met the setup. In fact, six of the devices have already arisen by a happy coincidence. Pnilled has upgraded his own computer and two devices from his children over the Christmas season.
The youngest and third child also has its own PC, which is also represented in the picture. It is an older device that the father auctioned on Ebay a few years ago. Over the course of last year, Pnilled bought an additional three mini PCs, which bring the number of devices used to a total of ten.
Thus, the father and Reddior Pnilled had already had all the necessary computers together. As a result, only the purchase of the necessary periphery, which is not at the highest level, was imminent, but nevertheless fulfilled its purpose. In total, Pnilled invested around 380 euros in the setup for the LAN party.
These processors and graphics cards are installed:
- i7 8700k, GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER
- i5, GeForce RTX 3050
- I7-4790K, Dangercs GTX 1070 TI
- i7-4790, GeForce GTX 1650 low profile (ebay-purchase)
- AMD Ryzen 7 7800x3d, GeForce RTX 4080 Super (newer devices children)
- Ryzen 3 5425U (Mini PC)
- Ryzen 7 5825U (Mini PC)
- Ryzen 9 6900HX (Mini PC)
By the way: theCommentsconfirm that the father Pnilled is very gaming-affin. So he not only lying around different PC hardware at home, but also genuine arcade machines!
Part of the game selection is already known:
- Serious Sam
- Warsow

With this, the children at the LAN party not only expect an impressive setup, but also a wide range of game. Only all games are not youth -free - but because of our own experiences, which may have taken place in the past, we press the eyes.
With so much commitment to a birthday party, of course, we are not the only ones who are enthusiastic. In less than 24 hours after the contribution was created, over 27,000 people leave a positive assessment on Reddit and share game suggestions or indulge in nostalgia.
We join the user1DroidRepairManAnd agree to him or her that Pnilled looks like a good dad - and wish the gamers a lot of fun in advance! For the RedditorTheArtsIt is also clear: this is a birthday party that the participants will remember for a long time. If we indulge in our own memories from LAN parties, we can only agree again.
At this point we are particularly looking forward to the experiences of the GamePro community:Do LAN parties belong to the past for you or do you still meet your friend at a elaborate PC setup to rip through the days and nights?
