00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.800
the first thing i realized about the NVIDIA star wars titan graphics cards

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:14.200
is that they paired the jedi order with the galactic empire which is just

00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:21.199
you know what though it's fine

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:27.119
i mean full points for effort at least

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:29.599
and honestly i barely even care anyway

00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:33.120
hey thank you all for joining me um i understand that

00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:36.399
NVIDIA probably had the best of intentions

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:39.760
the but there's one fundamental problem here and that is that

00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:46.239
senator palpatine darth sidious whatever you want to call this apple these two

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:50.239
entities never actually oppose each other

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:56.160
directly which led me to my second realization

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:57.680
we had to make a video that showcased

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:03.310
these bad boys so this my friends is the mystic space

00:01:01.199 --> 00:01:06.489
warrior knowledge cube build

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:15.200
the 20 liter moss pack features a built-in charging station cable

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:19.360
management pass-throughs and it's been recently updated to include a few little

00:01:17.360 --> 00:01:22.799
improvements like better straps and a larger laptop pocket check it out at the

00:01:21.520 --> 00:01:26.080
link below now with a warehouse full of computer

00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:32.400
cases you would think that after spending hours searching we could find

00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:34.720
something with the sheer moxie and space

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

00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:47.680
do something that we've surprisingly never done before here at LTT

00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:49.840
design and build our very own case

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:54.000
from the ground up so setting out to design this thing we only had a few

00:01:51.759 --> 00:01:58.960
rough guidelines in place we wanted it to look really cool

00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:04.479
and alex has been itching to play with our new fabool laser co2 laser cutter

00:02:01.759 --> 00:02:10.879
from smart diy so our design team immediately came up with some wild and

00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:13.200
crazy ideas for complex polyhedrons and

00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:17.440
ornate acrylic paneling that would fit our overall theme after all when it

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.440
comes to imagination the sky is the limit right

00:02:18.640 --> 00:02:26.480
no actually the limit is something called international copyright law which is why

00:02:24.160 --> 00:02:31.680
our decorative inscriptions are in klingon not aurabesh

00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:36.160
so after much internal debate and many failed attempts

00:02:33.920 --> 00:02:39.440
here's how our final design ended up coming together

00:02:37.760 --> 00:02:43.760
or at least we wish it was that easy we constructed our

00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:49.040
case from the bottom up which meant putting together a wooden frame now

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.200
wood isn't exactly a first choice material when it comes to computer cases

00:02:51.200 --> 00:02:56.480
but we aren't quite ready to try our hands at fabricating a metal frame

00:02:55.519 --> 00:03:01.519
yet so we attached wooden pillars to a small

00:02:58.959 --> 00:03:06.800
sheet of mdf then we made holes for inserts for motherboard standoffs and a

00:03:03.920 --> 00:03:10.560
much larger hole for the GPU next we needed a starter hole for the

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.200
GPU io then to get a nice clean cut we picked

00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:19.760
up a brand new handsaw that totally ended up sucking so the

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

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:27.599
ever see it provided of course that there was nobody standing around with a

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:31.519
camera filming the whole thing the motherboard standoffs went in a lot

00:03:29.440 --> 00:03:35.599
more smoothly and we elevated them on these big screws so we would have

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:41.599
somewhere to tuck our cables after putting on the motherboard and rog

00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:45.840
strix z370i mini itx board we added our

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:47.040
CPU an Intel core i7 8700 six core

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

00:03:52.640 --> 00:04:00.560
then for cooling our first choice was a be quiet! dark rock pro 3 tower cooler

00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:05.040
but unfortunately even with low profile RAM we were unable to successfully mount

00:04:03.519 --> 00:04:07.840
the tower so it looks like it's knocked to it to the

00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:13.439
rescue now the center piece of this build is

00:04:09.920 --> 00:04:17.280
our star wars titan xp graphics card so

00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:19.040
we opted to give it a full frontal mount

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

00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:30.160
express extension to mount it in a vertical position front and center right

00:04:26.840 --> 00:04:33.199
here now let's see how it might look

00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.199
with some paneling

00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:40.720
well luckily a hasty modification can rectify

00:04:38.479 --> 00:04:44.880
that problem now we're not going to leave the frame

00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:47.120
showing exposed wood so we also need to give the whole thing a quick coat of

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

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:58.479
to the most important part of any kick-ass case build adding the RGB with

00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:02.560
all the strips in place it's time to close it up

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

00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:12.720
as mentioned earlier we used our fabool laser cutter to create our

00:05:09.520 --> 00:05:14.960
non-infringing designs and aside from a

00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:17.440
few minor hiccups that process was relatively painless

00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:27.220
so after another finishing touch and some decorative molding around the outside

00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:35.959
yeah now we're looking good

00:05:56.880 --> 00:05:59.880
hmm

00:06:29.039 --> 00:06:32.840
once it was built though we had to put it through the paces

00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:38.240
i mean you have a good idea based on the

00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:41.919
hardware you put in of how something like this is going to perform but what's

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:45.600
the point of owning a rowboat if you never ride it

00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:49.440
does one ride a rowboat not really the point anyway the thermals

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

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:58.319
in there but our core i7 8700k still

00:06:55.199 --> 00:07:00.800
managed to turbo to 4 gigahertz on all 6

00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:06.080
cores with temps in the mid 70s and gaming wise this thing is a beast

00:07:04.080 --> 00:07:09.840
churning through even the latest aaa titles as you would expect a titan xp to

00:07:09.039 --> 00:07:14.840
do and remember this is all in a case that

00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:18.960
was really not made with thermals in mind so in the end

00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:24.720
we love the results but we feel like in the future we've

00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:26.660
still got a lot of work to do for as the

00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:33.150
