How a Tesla Model S for kids became every gamer’s envy
The Tesla Model S for Kids from Radio Flyer has gone under the ultimate transformation to become a fully-functional, liquid-cooled, high-performance gaming PC on wheels, in Tech Youtuber Marques Brownlee’s latest review.
Muscled into the frunk of a toy Tesla Model S for kids, the high-powered gaming computer by Origin PC is as much a fantastical killer gaming machine, as it is an impulse buy for the most astute gamer.
Brownlee of the popular MKBHD channel describes how the Miami-based maker of custom PCs, found inspiration to customize the spacious Model S frunk into a gaming machine on wheels. “Origin PC saw this thing, and they saw the front trunk space, which is by default, totally empty like a normal Tesla. They thought since they build custom PCs all the time, lightbulb moment, that’s enough space to put in a custom PC,” Brownlee said.
While Origin PC doesn’t sell a complete Tesla Model S for kids gaming machine, PC enthusiasts can purchase the components separately and build their own variation of the “fastest” gaming PC.
Specifications of the computer are as follows:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 3900X
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition GPU
- Motherboard: ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB3
- RAM: 32GB (2x16GB) CORSAIR Dominator Platinum RGB 3200MHz
- SSD – OS Drive: 2TB Force Series Gen.4 PCIe MP600 NVMe M.2 SSD
- Storage: 2TB Seagate BarraCuda HDD
- PSU: CORSAIR SF Series SF750 — 750 Watt
One of the coolest features of the vehicle/PC is the additional ports that Origin included within the vehicle’s interior. The various ports are used for connecting the essential gaming devices, including a monitor, a microphone, and a headset. Origin was sure to include all of the necessary connection points in the car’s dash, making it easily accessible for the driver (or gamer) to plug monitors or headsets for immediate use.
Liquid-cooling tubes for the PC are surgically installed throughout the toy Tesla, and concealed beneath the car’s outer panels—some of the tubes run behind the vehicle’s wheel.
Brownlee calls the PC the fastest in the world, which it may very well be. After all, this electric Model S for Kids can reach a spirited 6 MPH, besting any other gaming PC on the market, in physical speed.
Gamers, parents to gaming kids, gaming parents, and anyone with some FU money and time on their hands; you can recreate this beast of a gaming PC too. It starts with a Tesla Model S for kids and ends with some major flex.
Watch MKBHD go behind the wheel of this fastest gaming PC. Literally.

Elon Musk seemingly confirms Cybertruck gift to 13-year-old cancer fighter
Diagnosed in 2018 with a rare form of brain and spine cancer with no cure, the teen has undergone 13 surgeries by the time he was 12.

Elon Musk has seemingly confirmed that he will be sending a Tesla Cybertruck to 13-year-old Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel, a 13-year-old Houston boy fighting brain cancer. The teen was recognized as an honorary Secret Service member by U.S. President Donald Trump during his address to Congress on Tuesday.
A Chance Meeting
The Tesla CEO’s Cybertruck pledge was mentioned during DJ’s short interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. When Collins asked the 13-year-old what he told the Tesla CEO, DJ answered that he asked for a Cybertruck.
“I said, ‘can you do me a big favor, when you get back to Houston can you send us a Cybertruck down there?’” the cancer fighter stated.
Daniel noted that Musk responded positively to his request, which was highlighted by Collins in a post on X. Musk responded to the post with a heart emoji, suggesting that he really will be sending a Cybertruck to the 13-year-old cancer fighter.
Teen’s Cancer Battle Inspires
Diagnosed in 2018 with a rare form of brain and spine cancer with no cure, Daniel has undergone 13 surgeries by the time he was 12. During his speech, Trump highlighted the 13-year-old’s long battle with his disease.
“Joining us in the gallery tonight is a young man who truly loves our police. The doctors gave him five months at most to live. That was more than six years ago. Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make his dream come true,” Trump stated.
Daniels officially received an honorary badge from U.S. Secret Service Director Sean Curran, to much applause during the event.
Surprisingly Partisan
While Daniels’ story has been inspiring, Trump’s focus on the 13-year-old cancer fighter has received its own fair share of criticism. MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace, while referencing Daniels’ love for law enforcement, noted that she is hoping the 13-year-old never has to defend the U.S. capitol against Trump supporters. “If he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide,” Wallace stated.
Anti-Musk and Trump accounts on X have also thrown jokes at the cancer fighter’s honorary badge, with some dubbing the 13-year-old as a “DEI hire” that should be looked into by DOGE.

Tesla owner highlights underrated benefit of FSD Supervised

Elon Musk has been pretty open about the idea of FSD being the difference maker for Tesla’s future.
If Tesla succeeds in achieving FSD, it could become the world’s most valuable company. If it doesn’t, then the company would not be able to reach its optimum potential.
FSD Supervised’s safety benefits:
- But even if FSD is still not perfect today, FSD Supervised is already making a difference on the roads today.
- This was highlighted in Tesla’s Q4 2024 Vehicle Safety Report.
- As per Tesla, it recorded one crash for every 5.94 million miles driven in which drivers were using Autopilot technology.
- For comparison, the most recent data available from the NHTSA and FHWA (from 2023) showed that there was one automobile crash every 702,000 miles in the United States.
This morning, Tesla FSD proved to be an absolute godsend. I had to take my brother-in-law to the hospital in Sugar Land, TX, which is 40 miles away, at the ungodly hour of 4 AM. Both of us were exhausted, and he was understandably anxious about the surgery.

The convenience of…
FSD user’s tale:
- As per an FSD user’s post on social media platform X, FSD Supervised was able to help him drive a relative to a medical facility safely even if he was exhausted.
- During the trip, the driver only had to monitor FSD Supervised’s performance to make sure the Tesla operated safely.
- In a vehicle without FSD, such a trip with an exhausted driver would have been quite dangerous.
- “This morning, Tesla FSD proved to be an absolute godsend. I had to take my brother-in-law to the hospital in Sugar Land, TX, which is 40 miles away, at the ungodly hour of 4 AM. Both of us were exhausted, and he was understandably anxious about the surgery.
- “The convenience of sending the hospital’s address directly from my iPhone to my Tesla while still inside my house, then just a single button press once inside, and 40 miles later we were precisely in front of the hospital’s admissions area.This experience really underscores just how transformative this technology can be for society,” Tesla owner JC Christopher noted in his post.

Tesla Optimus “stars” in incredible fanmade action short film

There are few things that prove an enthusiast’s love towards a company more than a dedicated short film. This was highlighted recently when YouTube’s SoKrispyMedia posted a 10-minute action movie starring Optimus, Tesla’s humanoid robot, as well as several of the company’s most iconic products.
The video:
- Shot like a Hollywood action flick, the video featured a rather humorous plot involving a group of thieves that mistakenly targeted a Tesla Model 3 driver.
- The Model 3 driver then ended up speaking to Tesla for assistance, and some high-octane and high-speed hijinks ensued.
- While the short film featured several Tesla products like the Model 3, Superchargers, and the Cybertruck, it is Optimus that truly stole the show.
- Optimus served several roles in the short film, from an assistant in a Tesla office to a “robocop” enforcer that helped out the Model 3 driver.

Cool inside jokes:
- The best Tesla videos are those that show an in-depth knowledge of the company, and SoKrispyMedia definitely had it.
- From the opening scenes alone, the video immediately poked fun at TSLA traders, the large number of gray Tesla owners, and the fact that many still do not understand Superchargers.
- The video even poked fun at Tesla’s software updates, as well as how some Tesla drivers use Autopilot or other features without reading the fine print in the company’s release notes.
- The video ended with a tour de force of references to Elon Musk products, from the Tesla Cybertruck to the Boring Company Not-a-Flamethrower, which was released back in 2018.
