WEBVTT 00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:07.600 so the editing team here asked me for something very specific they want the 00:00:04.920 --> 00:00:12.799 fastest machine that I can build for exporting videos and they want it in the 00:00:10.280 --> 00:00:18.880 server room so that they can just remote into it and Export their projects 00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:20.760 directly from Premiere instead of going 00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:27.199 from premere to C form and then having a separate machine take it to h264 so I 00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:30.800 kind of went okay only one small 00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:33.360 problem with petabyte project coming 00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:36.879 space in our rack is at something of a premium and if you want the fastest 00:00:34.879 --> 00:00:45.120 machine I can build I want to overclock it but I've only got two used to do it 00:00:40.559 --> 00:00:45.120 so what's the solution water 00:00:53.120 --> 00:01:00.480 cooling tunnel bear is the simple VPN app that makes it easy to browse 00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:04.040 privately and enjoy a more open internet to try tunnel bear for free check out 00:01:02.239 --> 00:01:08.720 the link in the video description so believe it or not uh 00:01:06.520 --> 00:01:13.360 water cooling servers is actually a pretty common thing but as with anything 00:01:11.080 --> 00:01:18.960 that we do around here there's a right way to do it and there's a wrong way to 00:01:16.119 --> 00:01:26.640 do it so the right way to water cool a server is to buy a server or usually 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:29.280 server solution that is designed to be 00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:34.520 water cooled so typically that'll be servers that plug in with quick 00:01:31.479 --> 00:01:38.399 disconnect fittings to a a cabinet or 00:01:34.520 --> 00:01:41.479 even an entire room or building that has 00:01:38.399 --> 00:01:42.840 giant heat dissipation units located on 00:01:41.479 --> 00:01:49.799 the outside the wrong way to do it as the uh 00:01:47.960 --> 00:01:54.640 regular viewers have probably already figured out is the way that we're going 00:01:51.719 --> 00:02:01.840 to go about this is to just grab an off the-shelf server and uh jury rig some 00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.840 liquid cooling into it 00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:11.400 come on out you bastard 00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:14.840 okay so let's meet our victim then shall 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:17.720 we I actually threw this box together 00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:21.599 during our server maintenance weekend yesterday and the day before and the day 00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:26.000 before that it was a it was a long weekend just to make sure that it was 00:02:23.519 --> 00:02:33.519 all working before I went and water cooled it so in here we've got an ASUS 00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:37.000 x99 Delux 2 we've got a coree i7 6950x 00:02:33.519 --> 00:02:39.440 extreme Edition 10 core we've got a 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:45.560 Noctua cooler that's clearly got to go I mean I love Noctua but not going to be 00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:48.000 suitable for that CPU we've got uh 32 00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:54.680 gigs of Corsair Dominator Platinum painted orange RAM we've actually got a 00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:56.959 GTX 980 in here that's about all we need 00:02:54.680 --> 00:03:01.680 for video acceleration and then I wasn't sure what to do on the boot Drive I 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:04.840 actually have a PCI Express SSD down there just to see if it was going to 00:03:02.920 --> 00:03:09.000 work in that second slot but I think we're going to go with these two guys in 00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:13.210 raid one yes I know they're refurbished yes I know they're old but it's raid one 00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:15.480 it should be 00:03:15.480 --> 00:03:23.120 okay so now I need some water cooling gear normally I would reach out to all 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:26.920 The Usual Suspects and get them to send 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:30.640 over some cool stuff but uh this project 00:03:26.920 --> 00:03:32.519 was not planned out at all 00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:35.599 so what I'm stuck with is just kind of going through the shelves here and 00:03:34.040 --> 00:03:39.560 seeing what I can find some of this is what I would have used anyway like the 00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:46.319 Primo chill Advanced LRT tubing I found some in red uh but some of this stuff is 00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:49.519 a very random mish mash of what I had on 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:52.079 the water cooling shelf so here's um a 00:03:49.519 --> 00:03:58.120 D5 pump with a top from Ek that was from a previous project here's a a phobia 00:03:55.640 --> 00:04:03.720 Reservoir that's just the smallest tube Reservoir that I have on hand here's an 00:04:00.519 --> 00:04:07.920 old Alpha cool rad that I found and 00:04:03.720 --> 00:04:10.319 finally this is an interesting story I 00:04:07.920 --> 00:04:14.920 take pride in completing the sponsored projects that I asked for hardware for 00:04:12.799 --> 00:04:21.000 and over two years ago I asked bits power for a very specific set of 00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:27.199 fittings for a water cooled bit Phoenix Prodigy built and I never delivered it 00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:30.199 for a number of reasons and so I've just 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:31.840 kind of shamefully looked at these every 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:36.000 time I've gone through the fittings box having not really any use for all these 00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:41.759 like 45s and right angles it only had two straight fittings in it but that all 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:45.440 changes today because I finally have a 00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:47.680 project that I can use them for so stage 00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:51.160 one is to kind of tear everything out that I already had in there and have a 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:56.080 look at the space we're working with this was actually our old router case 00:04:53.240 --> 00:05:00.199 and as you can see there is a lot of wasted space for like 5 and 1/4 in Drive 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:03.759 Bay these fans that are just kind of hanging 00:05:02.320 --> 00:05:08.199 out in the middle of nowhere we're still going to need intake fans but a lot of 00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:12.919 this space could be utilized for something else but I still have some 00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:16.840 concerns so we've got an EK Supremacy Evo block I'm using the all metal 00:05:15.039 --> 00:05:21.000 version we don't want to take any unnecessary risks with leaks since this 00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:26.280 will actually be sitting above paby project and I just wanted to make sure 00:05:22.880 --> 00:05:29.680 that it's actually going to fit in the 00:05:26.280 --> 00:05:33.479 2u height with our 90° fitting so that's 00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:35.919 good then same thing metal caps for the 00:05:33.479 --> 00:05:41.840 end of our tube Reservoir I need to find somewhere to put that which looks like 00:05:38.880 --> 00:05:46.479 it's going to be right about here and then I need somewhere to put my 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:51.560 radiator and it looks like we've got a small clearance issue there but nothing 00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:58.080 we can't resolve so this is great everything came out really easily giving 00:05:54.400 --> 00:06:01.639 us actually more space what we're going 00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:04.440 to do is actually sub in a triple 00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:09.919 radiator where I had intended to use a dual 00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:12.599 radiator now the mounting though is 00:06:09.919 --> 00:06:17.080 going to be a little bit tricky we're actually going to raise it a little bit 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:21.240 off the bottom of the case then we're going to have the fans blowing up this 00:06:19.520 --> 00:06:27.360 way and we're going to have these three fans carrying the air through the case 00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:30.000 as a whole bear in mind guys this is a 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:35.319 triple radiator and we don't have enough room to cool the video card anyway so 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:37.599 it's only responsible for cooling the 00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:41.240 CPU so there are a couple of things you're going to notice me doing about 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:47.479 this build that would be a little bit different than normal uh number one is 00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:53.319 I'm going to be using everywhere that I can so on the radiator on the CPU block 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:59.039 and on the reservoir actually I'm going to be using vice grips to tighten up 00:06:55.960 --> 00:07:01.960 these nled fittings like this because I 00:06:59.039 --> 00:07:06.759 can cannot risk a leak and as long as we are screwing into metal there's no 00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:10.160 danger other than to the finish on the nled fittings the other thing you're 00:07:08.599 --> 00:07:14.599 going to notice is that I'm going to be optimizing for the shortest possible 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:20.919 tubing runs wherever I can because no matter how good your tubing is it will 00:07:17.440 --> 00:07:24.000 be slightly porous and that's where 00:07:20.919 --> 00:07:27.440 water evaporates from a water cooling 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:30.120 system so I'm going to have as little of 00:07:27.440 --> 00:07:36.160 that exposed as possible now I'm getting really excited I think I 00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:38.199 finally got a pretty solid plan for how 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:43.240 this is going to come together so I need some kind of riser for this Reservoir to 00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:48.720 make sure that it is high enough that the pump's Inlet is going to be easily 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:52.800 fed by it then that conveniently gets me right up to the same level as this right 00:07:50.520 --> 00:07:59.520 angle coming off the radiator that will go back into the res very cool stuff 00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:03.759 then the CPU is easy this tube looks like it's just going to fit under the 00:08:01.440 --> 00:08:09.560 graphics card and this one comes right over here giving me a total of only 00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:10.560 about like two feet and change of 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:16.319 exposed tubing mounting everything to the bottom 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:19.800 of the case is extremely important and 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:22.400 needs to be very precise if I screw up 00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:27.840 the placement just a little bit for the radiator the pump and the reservoir they 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:30.680 aren't all going to fit the other thing that's going to be really tricky down 00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:36.680 down here is the fact that this is a rack 00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:38.880 mounted case so I can't just have like 00:08:36.680 --> 00:08:46.000 the head of a screw sticking through here it'll bump on the next one down so 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:53.320 what I've got are these sunken type screws here and the plan is to use what 00:08:50.040 --> 00:08:55.240 is not a proper bit for metal but I only 00:08:53.320 --> 00:09:01.000 need a few holes out of it but I'm going to use one of these uh stepped style 00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:05.360 drill bits to see if I can create a counter sunk hole as as best as I can 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:11.040 yes I know it's not 100% the best way to do it but come on you're watching M the 00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:15.120 decks we're going to pre-drill a hole in 00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:15.120 the red to tap 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:23.360 into 00:09:23.920 --> 00:09:31.399 oh went too far hit the tube well I am 00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:37.880 not sure if I could be more pissed off right now so the bad news is that we 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:42.640 punctured the radiator and I don't have another one of the same but the good 00:09:39.959 --> 00:09:49.480 news is that that hole that I was drilling these screws thread in and kind 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:51.920 of self-tap perfectly nice solid 00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:57.680 connection the plan would have worked perfectly if I had just put something 00:09:54.000 --> 00:10:00.920 back I thought I could control it but it 00:09:57.680 --> 00:10:03.519 slipped so I have to fix this now which 00:10:00.920 --> 00:10:08.760 means the best solution we have on hand is Marine 00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:10.640 epoxy claims to bond brass so I have 00:10:08.760 --> 00:10:15.399 mixed it thoroughly for 1 minute I have actually done this before 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:21.800 with jbweld that radiator continued to work for years but I've never tried 00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:24.000 using epoxy so here we 00:10:21.800 --> 00:10:30.880 go this is how you can tell the difference in my videos between a 00:10:27.839 --> 00:10:33.920 problem and a 00:10:30.880 --> 00:10:35.720 problem that will go there for a bit 00:10:33.920 --> 00:10:40.760 let's get the pump and res mounted we now return to you live from 00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:48.000 problems lonus was expecting to have to solve okay so when we try and close the 00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:50.240 lid we're going to see that there's a 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:55.959 bit of a bit of a bulge so to speak I can't have even that 00:10:54.160 --> 00:11:03.959 little bit of play it's only about this much fortunately this mount for the pump 00:11:00.800 --> 00:11:06.040 has a little bit of unnecessary 00:11:03.959 --> 00:11:12.720 thickness at the bottom that I think we can just remove we bought the sticky 00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:14.639 kind when we need the velcro kind no 00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:18.639 problem this is just a finer grit than I had wanted to use it'll just take a 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:18.639 little bit 00:11:22.920 --> 00:11:30.639 longer I should have just mounted the radiator with double-sided 00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:33.040 tape why did did I screw through it 00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:35.519 anyway cart before the horse let's find out if it 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:42.399 fits perfect no bulge 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:48.680 whatsoever all right I was bound to be successful at 00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:53.680 something not having a good day today 00:11:48.680 --> 00:11:56.440 it's okay I always pull it off usually 00:11:53.680 --> 00:12:05.240 oh man did you see those scissors Bend always pull back before trying to insert 00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:05.240 yep I am never too mad to make a dick 00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:12.959 joke maybe we should just call this video problems linet could solve easily 00:12:11.079 --> 00:12:18.720 if he had enough time to wait around for a 3D print job I need spacers I need 00:12:16.160 --> 00:12:24.210 spacers for my screws so I found this old acrylic CPU block hold down and I'm 00:12:21.839 --> 00:12:26.040 cutting it up to get 00:12:26.040 --> 00:12:33.279 holes these may be the jankiest 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:37.519 spacers of all 00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:40.320 time oh shoot just call this video lonus 00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:45.959 being grumpy for 20 minutes so as long as everything stays in place exactly 00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:52.320 perfectly okay oh 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:55.519 sh the radiator is in making real 00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.519 progress now we're getting 00:12:57.839 --> 00:13:04.120 close here we are again a 3D printed Mount 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:10.240 would be a perfect solution for our Reservoir but 00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:12.959 uh no time so it came to 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:20.040 me Minecraft boom brick boom Another Brick 00:13:18.160 --> 00:13:27.079 oh yes wait is that too 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:28.780 high ah back to the drawing 00:13:27.079 --> 00:13:31.000 board D Minecraft 00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:38.320 we'll use this Square hockey puck okay not my straightest 00:13:40.800 --> 00:13:43.800 cut 00:13:45.199 --> 00:13:52.120 okay we have a big problem we are like 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:57.160 done it's time to power it up and this 00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:59.519 this is how set our epoxy is clearly 00:13:57.160 --> 00:14:04.440 that's not enough but possibly fractal design to the rescue fractal has 00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:09.959 removable fittings from the components of their AO 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:17.399 but what I don't know yet is if they're using G1 qu threads if 00:14:14.079 --> 00:14:22.079 they are then I can just Swap this 00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:24.759 Radiator in it is it is right it's right 00:14:22.079 --> 00:14:24.759 we have another 00:14:27.680 --> 00:14:36.759 red love 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:41.680 tap love tap now I'm having fun 00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:41.680 okay oh could that have been any 00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:50.480 easier oh yes in there just fine we've 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:55.000 got our tubing run all our fittings are tightened so all that's left to do is 00:14:52.720 --> 00:15:01.120 throw in our network card throw in our graphics card wait what is this really 00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:08.240 going to interfere with this oh come
