Earlier today, One True King (OTK) and Charlie "MoistCr1TiKaL" shocked the streaming and gaming community by revealing Starforge Systems.

Earlier this month, One True King posted a cryptic tweet talking about an upcoming project known as Project Saturn and asked fans to be on the lookout for August 8.
Fans immediately began speculating, and many believed that the streamer organization might be starting their own game development studio. Others thought that they might be adding a new section exclusively for VTubers.
On August 8, the streamer organization hosted an OTK shareholders meeting stream on Matthew "Mizkif's" channel and revealed that they had partnered with MoistCr1TiKaL to build a new company tailored to produce custom PCs.
More than 200 fans were present in the reaction thread on Twitter, with several fans commending the milestones the organization has managed to achieve:

Twitch streamer and PC building enthusiast Kristofer Yee requested that Starforge Systems send him a review unit:

Fans responded to the Twitter user's post with possible justifications for the pricing:
The announcement was posted on the streamer subreddit r/LivestreamFail and garnered more than 1.8k comments.
Redditors expressed their amusement at how some viewers present in the Twitch chat were getting permanently banned for using "stock" emoticons:
Some Redditors stated that Mizkif had gotten in touch with the subreddit's moderation team and requested that they remove the reaction thread:
Fans commented on Starforge Systems charging more than $1,000 for a subpar processor and graphics card:
