00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:08,800
the first thing i realized about the NVIDIA star wars titan graphics cards

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:14,200
is that they paired the jedi order with the galactic empire which is just

3
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:21,199
you know what though it's fine

4
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:27,119
i mean full points for effort at least

5
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:29,599
and honestly i barely even care anyway

6
00:00:27,119 --> 00:00:33,120
hey thank you all for joining me um i understand that

7
00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:36,399
NVIDIA probably had the best of intentions

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,760
the but there's one fundamental problem here and that is that

9
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:46,239
senator palpatine darth sidious whatever you want to call this apple these two

10
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,239
entities never actually oppose each other

11
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:56,160
directly which led me to my second realization

12
00:00:53,039 --> 00:00:57,680
we had to make a video that showcased

13
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:03,310
these bad boys so this my friends is the mystic space

14
00:01:01,199 --> 00:01:06,489
warrior knowledge cube build

15
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,200
the 20 liter moss pack features a built-in charging station cable

16
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:19,360
management pass-throughs and it's been recently updated to include a few little

17
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:22,799
improvements like better straps and a larger laptop pocket check it out at the

18
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,080
link below now with a warehouse full of computer

19
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:32,400
cases you would think that after spending hours searching we could find

20
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:34,720
something with the sheer moxie and space

21
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:40,079
age energy that we were looking for but alas it was for naught so we set out to

22
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:47,680
do something that we've surprisingly never done before here at LTT

23
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:49,840
design and build our very own case

24
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:54,000
from the ground up so setting out to design this thing we only had a few

25
00:01:51,759 --> 00:01:58,960
rough guidelines in place we wanted it to look really cool

26
00:01:56,159 --> 00:02:04,479
and alex has been itching to play with our new fabool laser co2 laser cutter

27
00:02:01,759 --> 00:02:10,879
from smart diy so our design team immediately came up with some wild and

28
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:13,200
crazy ideas for complex polyhedrons and

29
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:17,440
ornate acrylic paneling that would fit our overall theme after all when it

30
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,440
comes to imagination the sky is the limit right

31
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:26,480
no actually the limit is something called international copyright law which is why

32
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:31,680
our decorative inscriptions are in klingon not aurabesh

33
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:36,160
so after much internal debate and many failed attempts

34
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:39,440
here's how our final design ended up coming together

35
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:43,760
or at least we wish it was that easy we constructed our

36
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:49,040
case from the bottom up which meant putting together a wooden frame now

37
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:53,200
wood isn't exactly a first choice material when it comes to computer cases

38
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,480
but we aren't quite ready to try our hands at fabricating a metal frame

39
00:02:55,519 --> 00:03:01,519
yet so we attached wooden pillars to a small

40
00:02:58,959 --> 00:03:06,800
sheet of mdf then we made holes for inserts for motherboard standoffs and a

41
00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:10,560
much larger hole for the GPU next we needed a starter hole for the

42
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:15,200
GPU io then to get a nice clean cut we picked

43
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:19,760
up a brand new handsaw that totally ended up sucking so the

44
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:23,680
hole looks super ragged but since it's on the bottom of the case no one will

45
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:27,599
ever see it provided of course that there was nobody standing around with a

46
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:31,519
camera filming the whole thing the motherboard standoffs went in a lot

47
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:35,599
more smoothly and we elevated them on these big screws so we would have

48
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:41,599
somewhere to tuck our cables after putting on the motherboard and rog

49
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:45,840
strix z370i mini itx board we added our

50
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:47,040
CPU an Intel core i7 8700 six core

51
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:54,640
processor pretty much the best of the best for gaming right now and 16 gigs of ddr4 RAM

52
00:03:52,640 --> 00:04:00,560
then for cooling our first choice was a be quiet! dark rock pro 3 tower cooler

53
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:05,040
but unfortunately even with low profile RAM we were unable to successfully mount

54
00:04:03,519 --> 00:04:07,840
the tower so it looks like it's knocked to it to the

55
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:13,439
rescue now the center piece of this build is

56
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:17,280
our star wars titan xp graphics card so

57
00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:19,040
we opted to give it a full frontal mount

58
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:23,840
which is not nearly as dirty as it sounds it just means that we used a pci

59
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:30,160
express extension to mount it in a vertical position front and center right

60
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:33,199
here now let's see how it might look

61
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,199
with some paneling

62
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:40,720
well luckily a hasty modification can rectify

63
00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:44,880
that problem now we're not going to leave the frame

64
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,120
showing exposed wood so we also need to give the whole thing a quick coat of

65
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:53,199
paint then once we've got all the hardware loaded into our mark ii frame we can get

66
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:58,479
to the most important part of any kick-ass case build adding the RGB with

67
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:02,560
all the strips in place it's time to close it up

68
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:08,080
but first let's get a nice good look at just how awesome that setup is looking

69
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:12,720
as mentioned earlier we used our fabool laser cutter to create our

70
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,960
non-infringing designs and aside from a

71
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,440
few minor hiccups that process was relatively painless

72
00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:27,220
so after another finishing touch and some decorative molding around the outside

73
00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:35,959
yeah now we're looking good

74
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,880
hmm

75
00:06:29,039 --> 00:06:32,840
once it was built though we had to put it through the paces

76
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:38,240
i mean you have a good idea based on the

77
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,919
hardware you put in of how something like this is going to perform but what's

78
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:45,600
the point of owning a rowboat if you never ride it

79
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:49,440
does one ride a rowboat not really the point anyway the thermals

80
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:55,199
aren't quite as good as we might expect from an nhd15 so it is a little toasty

81
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,319
in there but our core i7 8700k still

82
00:06:55,199 --> 00:07:00,800
managed to turbo to 4 gigahertz on all 6

83
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:06,080
cores with temps in the mid 70s and gaming wise this thing is a beast

84
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,840
churning through even the latest aaa titles as you would expect a titan xp to

85
00:07:09,039 --> 00:07:14,840
do and remember this is all in a case that

86
00:07:12,639 --> 00:07:18,960
was really not made with thermals in mind so in the end

87
00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:24,720
we love the results but we feel like in the future we've

88
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:26,660
still got a lot of work to do for as the

89
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:33,150
