WEBVTT 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.200 PC system manufacturers like MSI and Gigabyte have released some fantastic 00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:13.400 small form factor gaming machines in the last couple of years but they all have 00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:21.480 the same disadvantage nonstandard and in many 00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:24.439 cases non upgradable components no you 00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:31.599 have to leave it to the hardcore enthusiasts Pioneers like Lucas diacon 00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:34.680 to break free from what has become the 00:00:31.599 --> 00:00:37.960 way to build a small form factor gaming 00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:42.239 rig ITX motherboards with a single 00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:46.360 graphics card are out natx motherboards 00:00:42.239 --> 00:00:48.480 with dual graphics cards are in oh and 00:00:46.360 --> 00:00:55.559 did I mention that this thing is liquid cooled and under 15 L making it only 00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.920 slightly bigger than the corser one so 00:00:55.559 --> 00:01:01.920 strap on my friends cuz this going to be 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.920 good 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:16.400 Synergy allows you to share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers 00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:20.079 at once check it out now at the link in the video 00:01:17.960 --> 00:01:25.240 description I feel like we should start with one small problem project orthis 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:31.720 named for the mythological Greek two-headed dog is not for sale yet this 00:01:29.119 --> 00:01:36.600 one was actually built by our friends at Proto case they do great work the rack 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:42.079 mount gaming case they built for me is still going strong so it's no surprise 00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:46.200 then that Lucas went to them with his 00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:49.520 incredible design and they got to work 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:52.399 every component was laser cut inhouse 00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:57.960 the front panel details and rear IO not to mention the badass front logo were 00:01:55.079 --> 00:02:04.320 milled out the radiator holder was routered out the mother motherboard tray 00:02:00.880 --> 00:02:06.719 and SSD holder were bent they pressed in 00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:13.120 all the rivets standoffs and threaded nuts routered the side panel and put the 00:02:10.640 --> 00:02:18.879 whole thing together with a beautiful coat of their Proto Legacy black powder 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:22.840 coating a couple revisions of that and 00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:24.800 this is what landed on our doorstep 00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:30.239 still some assembly required though am I right we actually needed two care 00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:35.560 packages to assemble our case the one from protoc case that was unidentifiable 00:02:33.160 --> 00:02:42.159 as a case other than the main chassis frame and one from Lucas himself that 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:49.560 included among other things a server power supply with custom rerouted 12volt 00:02:46.200 --> 00:02:52.159 rails to support our dual graphics cards 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:56.239 and custom shorter cables I mean this thing is already way too cool we haven't 00:02:53.720 --> 00:03:00.280 even assembled it yet yours would of course come in a much more finished 00:02:58.239 --> 00:03:07.720 State though so we're going to fast forward to System Assembly front IO was 00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:11.879 pretty straightforward dual USB 2 and 00:03:07.720 --> 00:03:15.360 dual USB 3 with HDMI pass through for VR 00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:18.360 and a dope ass capacitive power button 00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:21.519 are nice extras then it was time to move 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:23.040 on to core components we chose an Intel 00:03:21.519 --> 00:03:30.640 Core i7 6900k for maximum PCIe bandwidth for the 00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:33.680 two PCI Express 16x slots on our ASUS 00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:36.360 x99m WS motherboard and I'm pretty sure 00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:41.760 the Ws stands for West SED cuz this thing is awesome we added a sprinkling 00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:51.280 of Corsair Vengeance RGB memory on the side for maximum FPS and our 20040 mm 00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:55.439 AIO goes in next but due to width 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:58.519 limitations there is a mere 55 mm of 00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:00.560 height available for the CPU block which 00:03:58.519 --> 00:04:05.560 is why we ended up using using an older generation Corsair 00:04:03.079 --> 00:04:10.560 h100i all right we're getting close now let's pop the graphics cards in the 00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:14.760 design comes with brackets to fit a pair of 2 and 1/2 in drives on the 00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:20.359 motherboard side and a 3 and 1/2 in drive plus another 2 and 1/2 in to 00:04:17.440 --> 00:04:27.400 piggyback on top in the second graphics card tray if you're not using it but we 00:04:23.400 --> 00:04:29.680 are using it for twin GTX 1080 TI 00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:37.320 Founders editions so there will be no junk in the backside for us these 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:40.039 shielded PCI Express risers go in now 00:04:37.320 --> 00:04:46.479 note that one of them is actually more narrow than the other in order for the 00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:49.880 SLI Bridges to fit then we install the 00:04:46.479 --> 00:04:52.080 cards themselves it is a bit tricky as 00:04:49.880 --> 00:04:59.240 the bottom card needs to be installed first then have its custom spliced and 00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:05.440 extended SLI Bridges connected wrapped behind the tray and then powered up the 00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:09.639 extra length of the SLI cables actually enables them to be hidden behind the 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:15.520 cards so you can show them off in their full SLI Glory now that the key 00:05:13.520 --> 00:05:23.680 components are together it's time to Spruce the machine up with mucho RGB and 00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:27.639 tidier cabling H looks like a fun task 00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:31.520 in such a tiny case let's uh summon the 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:34.240 comrade ah well that looked pretty easy 00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:41.919 now let's check her out all tidied up and in her maximum RGB Glory ladies and 00:05:37.840 --> 00:05:46.840 gents project orthis revision 00:05:41.919 --> 00:05:49.600 3 so from an idea to a 3D model to the 00:05:46.840 --> 00:05:55.360 lowest displacement chassis to be able to run GTX 1080 TI 00:05:52.759 --> 00:06:00.039 SLI I don't think anything could have prepared me for something this 00:05:57.520 --> 00:06:05.880 breathtakingly nerdalicious and the performance is shocking it's 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:12.639 really not that far off having these components on an open test bench and is 00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:15.720 basically identical to having them in a 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:17.639 fullsize chassis in fact for the card 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:25.080 that would normally be suffocating in the top PCIe slot it's even better there 00:06:22.479 --> 00:06:33.319 is still some more work to be done our Aussie friend cannot hand wire and paint 00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:36.000 every power supply for orthus buyers and 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:41.199 I think if we were to do another project with this case we'd probably reverse the 00:06:38.520 --> 00:06:47.120 front fans to keep from recycling hot air and uh maybe make use of the 00:06:44.599 --> 00:06:52.520 included Reservoir Mount for a custom water loop but uh we'll save that for 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:58.759 another time for now for all intents and purposes mission accomplished you could 00:06:55.400 --> 00:07:01.319 even say that uh now that's not a gaming 00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:07.039 rig that's a gaming rig so a huge shout out to Lucas and 00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:13.639 protocase for allowing us to be the first to make a video on this amazing 00:07:10.440 --> 00:07:15.639 case and also for sending us another one 00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:19.520 when we lost the first one you can follow this Project's future development 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:22.879 at the link in the video description or on Twitter at luk 00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:31.160 dornc do you suffer from the incredibly first world problem of having far too 00:07:28.520 --> 00:07:36.240 many computers to keep track of which keyboard and mouse goes with which well 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:40.280 actually I'm being factious because that can be a real problem maybe you have a 00:07:38.280 --> 00:07:45.840 development station and a gaming station or a PC and a Mac well Synergy allows 00:07:43.440 --> 00:07:50.680 you to share one Mouse and one keyboard between all of them so you will no 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:55.960 longer get confused and it all happens amazingly seamlessly they offer a basic 00:07:53.639 --> 00:08:00.800 and a pro option with a onetime payment for Lifetime access and features include 00:07:58.599 --> 00:08:04.919 aside from from just being able to move the mouse across screens like you 00:08:02.520 --> 00:08:10.720 wouldn't even believe clipboard sharing dragging and dropping files the ability 00:08:06.919 --> 00:08:13.400 to set up hot keys and more use our Link 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:17.440 in the video description to get 50% off of synergy 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:20.280 today so thanks for watching guys if you dislike
