this build the prime primera pm01fx from silverstone literally has a unicorn on the side what more could you want and it also has three 140mm fans up front which means that there should be enough space to fit our sky white 420 millimeter radiator from primo chill even if silverstone doesn't explicitly say so so measurement wise it should fit it's close it wants to do it oh balls yeah since we're in for a real derivating good time right our big radiator troubles weren't over yet though for our ddc pump and reservoir we planned to use this bit power mount that while sexy only connects to 120 millimeter fans but that's nothing that can't be fixed with a few minutes of solid works and some acrylic vaporization with our laser cutter not bad you might even say it's profesh as the kids say now it's time for some lighting RGB strip lights are cool but what's even better is spatially and temporally coherent lights oh yeah we're talking about lasers so we got this guy here off of amazon it's designed for dj booths but we're all about improvisation here and as it turns out the hole for the pci express power cables is just the right size for it only problem is the laser is too big to fit beside the massive prime titanium 1000 watt power supply from seasonic but what if we could make the laser smaller taking it apart revealed a lot of empty space and dr alex prescribed a healthy dose of angle grindelation to fix the problem oh yeah originally we wanted to add a smoke machine inside the pc as well but unfortunately the compact ones rely on water vapor a hopefully obvious problem inside a computer so we'll be relying on mineral oil based fog instead all right so now we've got a pretty funky case but this is LTT so we will need plenty of horses under the hood too first up was our GPU an NVIDIA gtx 1080 ti which gets the water treatment courtesy of bits power we removed the stock heatsink added some thermal grizzly cryonot and after a generous application of thermal pads we screwed on the water block now it looks pretty good here but that stock backplate now it's nice but a bit boring what's not boring though is this completely insane RGB back plate that we got from v1tx so we attached that to the GPU using magnets so it could be easily removed later for our CPU we chose a core i7 8700k and every Intel build these days needs a nice helping of liquid metal so we popped the lid added some conformal coating and then well in a perfect world we would have picked up a new syringe of liquid metal since the old ones have a bad habit of uh sticking fortunately we've already shown you how to clean these kinds of things up there we go with the CPU installed into our ASUS rog maximus 10 formula which comes with water cooling for the vrm already installed by the way and the CPU block on it was time to plan out the loop someday we will learn to do loop planning before we start but it is not this day wow alex's technique for hardline is to measure the bend first cut a bit longer than needed bend in the correct place massaging out the flat spots or oddities by hand then sand the tubes down to the correct size so the reason that we always recommend finishing this off with sanding is that it's super brittle and this way we can avoid that happening so do this a couple more times and you've got a hardline water cooled pc first we filled the system with distilled water and sysprep to make sure that any strange things would be removed next to find out if the liquid metal spill had damaged our CPU we went ahead and fired it up go oh excellent looks like we're good at this point things were starting to come together but the fans were a bit boring and we didn't want to just rely on throwing RGB fans into a case to make them pop idea number

flushed it with distilled water and then filled it up with uv pink dye from primo chill to give it some pop back to the fans then we tried using some different uv reactive paint to spice them up but
