WEBVTT

00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:05.960
we are going to liquid cool all five of

00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:10.519
our editing workstations together so those are like core i76 cores and GTX

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:13.920
Titans then we're going to take that water we're going to take it out of the

00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:17.960
building and then we're going to put that on a massive radiator so we're

00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:23.160
actually taking all that heat and dissipating it outside causing not only

00:00:20.199 --> 00:00:28.720
our systems to run cooler but also our room in which we do our work to be

00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:30.920
cooler we got to build things all right

00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:37.840
build things uh you might want to start on a new case uh yeah is this one all

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:42.600
secured I guess um outside I don't know if they're

00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:48.320
outside or inside I'm assuming I know that at least I see four of them so

00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.320
there's one more

00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:54.640
somewhere it's not in that box so

00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:10.960
yes I realized I was using pliers rather than a wrench to tighten the fittings

00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:16.560
onto the radiators that's what happens when Linus decides that one wrench is

00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:20.479
sufficient for the seven people working on a project some sacrifices that seems

00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:24.439
fine we'll probably have to use some extensions to get all these to where

00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:29.040
they need to go but we have those so that's not a big deal um and then it's

00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:32.920
going to push through yeah and then once you get all these mount wanted I might

00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:37.000
send you and David on a on a field trip to Home Depot to figure out figure out

00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:42.040
how like you might even have to do it there and just get everything mounted

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:46.880
onto something onto something that we can put up there that'll be strong

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:49.960
enough and just here if we have to

00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:52.640
sacrifice airf flow to the top fan to

00:01:49.960 --> 00:02:10.379
put four screws into it or something then that's what we have to do

00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:27.599
we're realizing now that our idea for

00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:31.319
hanging the radiators might not work we'll see what happens

00:02:31.720 --> 00:02:37.920
I also have no idea how we're going to get a ladder

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:41.440
here does Home Depot deliver if you buy

00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:44.200
things maybe we could just buy a ladder

00:02:41.440 --> 00:02:50.879
and then have them deliver it okay possibly okay either way we should make

00:02:47.040 --> 00:02:54.959
that happen pretty soon a ladder yeah

00:02:50.879 --> 00:03:01.840
yeah I can give you that like

00:02:54.959 --> 00:03:01.840
said so we also need the uh metal strips

00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:11.120
and then the tubing will run from the window up

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:14.319
here down to here all

00:03:16.760 --> 00:03:23.599
right were you planning to take someone with you or do you still need

00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.599
to

00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:31.439
uh I don't know let me look at it in a

00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:36.360
sec oh uh radiators yeah I was just doing the

00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:40.959
exiting for the camera oh I wasn't I thought you were leaving no okay

00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:17.720
component selection was something that was really important for us these are the workstations that we're going to be

00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:21.680
using to do the vast majority of our work so they need to be really fast and

00:04:19.479 --> 00:04:25.240
they need to be extremely reliable so most of the systems are running the same

00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:30.800
configuration so they're going to have core i7 4960x 6 core processors and the

00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.440
I don't know may do a little bit of overclocking we'll see it won't be much

00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:38.360
they're all going to be running on Aus x79 Deluxe motherboards that's a

00:04:36.400 --> 00:04:42.440
motherboard that we're particularly fond of because it's the one that's been on

00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:46.880
our Graphics test bench since its release and it's been extremely reliable

00:04:45.400 --> 00:04:52.840
there they are all going to be running 32 gigs of Kingston memory just you know

00:04:50.039 --> 00:04:57.120
nothing super fancy and really fast or anything but just nice reliable DDR3

00:04:55.360 --> 00:05:00.680
memory and they're all going to be running and this is where things start

00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:05.639
to get really interesting NVIDIA GTX Titan black editions now I had

00:05:02.919 --> 00:05:11.320
originally reached out to NVIDIA to get GTX 780s because Swift te was our water

00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:15.840
cooling provider and their only full cover water block from this generation

00:05:13.479 --> 00:05:20.319
supports the 780 the 780 Ti the Titan and the Titan black on the reference PCB

00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:23.919
and NVIDIA kind of went well you know don't you guys need double precision and

00:05:21.880 --> 00:05:28.199
all that video memory so they ended up sending over Titan blacks uh fortunately

00:05:26.840 --> 00:05:32.280
because I had already asked for the power supplies from Cooler Master at

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:37.960
that point the v750 modular power supplies that they're sending over are

00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:40.199
80 plus gold and 750 wats is plenty for

00:05:37.960 --> 00:05:44.880
a six core and a Titan black you don't actually want to go that Overkill

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:48.039
because if you do you can actually lose some of the efficiency that you're

00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:54.199
trying to gain by going with a highly efficient power supply for the cases we

00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:55.600
went with Cooler Master N600 Luke and I

00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:59.960
actually spent a fair bit of time figuring out a case that was compact

00:05:57.960 --> 00:06:03.039
lightweight enough professional enough looking that it wouldn't look out of

00:06:01.080 --> 00:06:08.120
place in an office and yet capable of holding the Enthusiast grade Hardware we

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:11.319
needed and most importantly was able to

00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:13.720
mount the reservoir radiator combo unit

00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:17.599
on the top that we wanted from swifttech so that we could have one fewer

00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:22.400
component inside each of the individual system water cooling Loops for when we

00:06:19.960 --> 00:06:28.000
wanted to disconnect from the main Loop and run the systems on their own we went

00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:32.440
with 4960 XS for our workstations because when it comes to video and code

00:06:29.840 --> 00:06:36.160
video rendering more cores really does make a difference these aren't gaming

00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:40.240
rigs these are meant for serious work and having the extra cores is going to

00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:43.639
really help people get their jobs done more efficiently which is very important

00:06:41.919 --> 00:06:47.400
to me we went with Kingston for the memory just because well it all comes

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:51.319
down to your personal experience and none of us has ever had a bad experience

00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:56.240
with Kingston memory so we reached out to them to sponsor the project and they

00:06:53.280 --> 00:07:03.080
actually agreed to chip in not only 32 gigs of RAM per system but also boot SSD

00:06:59.280 --> 00:07:07.000
so got 240 gig Boot ssds and they also

00:07:03.080 --> 00:07:09.599
chipped in 64 gigs of hyperx memory for

00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:16.759
edel's system because he apparently thinks that he actually needs 64 gigs of

00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:18.440
RAM the PC building process was actually

00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:24.440
kind of fun it takes me back I haven't done a project this big in a long time

00:07:21.919 --> 00:07:28.919
and you know the camaraderie and the pizza and Subway and all that good stuff

00:07:27.280 --> 00:07:33.280
that's all part of that team building experience I thought was uh was pretty

00:07:31.039 --> 00:07:36.680
entertaining one thing that was a bit of a challenge for me is that I ended up

00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:41.360
doing the finishing touches on most of the systems because I water cooled the

00:07:39.599 --> 00:07:45.280
internals of all five of them I was expecting to have some help but Luke

00:07:42.919 --> 00:07:51.240
ended up doing a lot of benchmarking on an Intel CPU launch rather than helping

00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:54.039
me build systems so I had to do uh all

00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:57.800
the the finishing moves myself when we finally took all the systems over to a

00:07:56.159 --> 00:08:02.520
table plugged them into a keyboard and mouse and had 30 seconds or so to make

00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:06.919
sure that they post because they didn't have any water in them it was a huge

00:08:04.479 --> 00:08:11.400
relief for me when each one of them powered on and uh displayed that you

00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:19.800
know all the RAM was detected and all that good stuff I love the wall deal I think

00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:22.680
they're absolutely amazing I'm extremely

00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:27.039
pleased with them um in spite of our best efforts to measure them out and put

00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:33.440
them exactly centered I'm pretty sure the W stealth one is about 3 in off

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:35.320
center but uh doesn't really matter the

00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.560
point is I think they look great they were quite a bit bigger than I was

00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:43.240
expecting I know how big 3 ft is but I never actually held the tape measure up

00:08:41.760 --> 00:08:47.279
to the wall and kind of went yeah we're going to put this one here and this one

00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:51.360
there because we didn't have the copper piping on the wall yet so I didn't

00:08:49.640 --> 00:08:56.680
really know exactly where the drops were going to come down or anything like that

00:08:52.760 --> 00:08:59.519
I left that up to Luke's dad so they're

00:08:56.680 --> 00:09:03.040
a little big but they're super cool I I think the funniest thing about the decal

00:09:01.040 --> 00:09:08.279
process was that it apparently takes three people to apply one wall decal

00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:12.839
they came with two different application methods one was with a a front paper

00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.959
piece so you just take the whole thing put it on and then kind of peel that off

00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:19.399
and the spacing is all right and that one was easy but the other one didn't

00:09:17.959 --> 00:09:24.360
come with a front piece cuz it was just a single decal and that one that one was

00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:28.839
a a three-man job if you can support the sticker or

00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:33.320
actually here if I support the sticker can you go cross hold

00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:39.920
on ah okay in that case um we're going

00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:45.800
to capture this moment and then take it away you take them look take it in

00:09:45.800 --> 00:09:52.040
go Nick also does not use drills very

00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:56.320
often and first was screwing things backwards so that was difficult aside

00:09:54.800 --> 00:10:00.640
from the things David told me which I wasn't even aware of Nick had additional

00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:05.640
challenges with the drill he was using a masonry drill bit the first time that I

00:10:02.959 --> 00:10:09.079
saw him using it and I corrected that little embarrassing to realize I was

00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:12.120
using the wrong one but you know I was I was actually pretty out of my element on

00:10:10.680 --> 00:10:16.000
this project I don't have much experience with building anything so I

00:10:14.760 --> 00:10:21.399
think it was just part of the learning process and uh luckily we got it fixed

00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:25.720
at the end of the day now the original plan for the

00:10:23.800 --> 00:10:31.959
radiators on the window was I think three or four triple RADS so we were

00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:33.959
going to have a total of 9 to 12 fans

00:10:31.959 --> 00:10:38.240
and it wasn't going to be that heavy so the idea was to hang it from the facial

00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:43.600
board but we got all the RADS and fans assembled and realized that once we

00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.959
filled that with water there was no way

00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:50.440
that was going to hang from the fascia board we came up with a new plan and it

00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:55.399
was you know three trips to Home Depot later including one trip where we had to

00:10:53.079 --> 00:10:59.000
try to buy a ladder which was a challenge because they wouldn't let us

00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:04.440
even try to put it into the rental van and instead we had to pay some guy in

00:11:01.160 --> 00:11:05.959
the parking lot to let us just kind of

00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:11.240
put it in the back of his truck and bring it to the uh to the office for us

00:11:08.760 --> 00:11:16.920
but uh I think the plan we've got now is going to work with all of the radiators

00:11:13.959 --> 00:11:21.160
mounted to the frame uh we did a leak test on it and none of them are leaking

00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:24.839
I am a little bit worried about the head pressure of the pump I had thought and

00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:29.920
it's a long time since I've used that pump I thought it had over 20 ft of head

00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:32.560
pressure it looks like it's 12

00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:35.720
so I'm really uncertain about whether it's going to be strong enough and I

00:11:33.839 --> 00:11:40.110
wonder if we are going to need an additional pump a bubbles yeah there

00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:41.760
goes the

00:11:41.760 --> 00:11:46.000
water is an ass ton of

00:11:46.560 --> 00:11:53.000
water so now we want to over

00:11:50.240 --> 00:12:01.240
here the not Cal down ladies and gentlemen

00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:01.240

00:12:10.920 --> 00:12:17.600
built all castles in the
