Elon Musk’s gaming computer in the White House created excitement

The computer, which has a design that highlights Dogecoin, seems to have a mid-range RTX 4060 or 4070 MSI graphics card. This graphics card is supported by a 49-inch Samsung Odyssey G9 monitor with ultra-wide dual QHD resolution.

The preparations meant Musk could hit the ground running on Jan. 20. Lately, he's been working from the Secretary of War Suite in the Eisenhower Building, where he's installed a gaming PC. Here's what the setup looks like:

It is unclear why Elon Musk used RTX 4060 when there are more powerful models. Considering the recent release of Nvidia’s RTX 5070, it might be time for Musk to upgrade.

It is known that Musk especially enjoys games such as Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 2. It is also estimated that he can use the large screen area for multitasking and play games in a window while managing Doge-related activities.

Elon Musk was also reported to have completed Artificer’s Pit, a challenging dungeon at level 150 in Diablo 4, at record speed. The speed of finishing Artificer’s Pit at level 150 is often used to measure players’ achievements. The time it takes players to complete this dungeon is listed on helltides.com. The name at the top of the list is recognised as the best player.
