WEBVTT 00:00:07.319 --> 00:00:13.719 now as you guys already know if you're following me me me on Twitter at Linus I 00:00:12.040 --> 00:00:18.960 am resurrecting the personal build project I have found the perfect 00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:21.160 motherboard the GX 79s up5 zero coil 00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:25.640 wine great look it'll match everything else that I got going on here really 00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:28.800 well so my next step is to start making some cuts into the case for cable 00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:32.200 management the reason I didn't want to move ahead with any cable management 00:00:30.400 --> 00:00:35.879 holes before I had finalized a motherboard is because where would I cut 00:00:34.360 --> 00:00:39.640 the holes if I don't know where the cables are going to be running and what kind of a board I'm going to be using so 00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:44.440 I'm going to be cutting some cable management holes I'm going to be painting some things myself so things 00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:49.039 like the outside of the optical drive I'm just going to be priming and 00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:52.239 spraying with a textured black whereas the bulk of the case components I'm 00:00:51.120 --> 00:00:58.519 going to be sending away to Mountain mods to be painted in Black once I have 00:00:55.520 --> 00:01:02.920 made my necessary Cuts so it never hurts to give a metal surface a quick scuff 00:01:00.760 --> 00:01:07.920 just to make sure that the uh primer will adhere so I'm not going for a 00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:13.240 perfect finish on thiss so I won't be over complicating 00:01:10.360 --> 00:01:18.159 things in terms of uh of the preparation process there we go make sure that's 00:01:15.320 --> 00:01:24.079 working you always want to apply spray really really lightly like underdo it as 00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:28.759 opposed to overdoing it this can be Rec in as little as about half an hour so 00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:32.000 I'm not not too concerned about getting perfect coverage no one will ever see 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:38.880 the top of the optical drive but I'm peeling the sticker off just for the sake of uh semi completeness here and 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:42.280 when you're done uh actually make sure you're always in a well ventilated area 00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:45.759 when you're done with an aerosol always make sure you clean out the nozzle 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:51.520 before you're uh before you finish well those lines seem pretty straight trusty 00:01:48.600 --> 00:01:57.159 Dremel never fails so got to do the CPU cutout I decided not to do any cutouts 00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:58.439 for um you know ATX 24 pin or whatever 00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:03.680 else I'm just going to bring them around like I used to and then I do want to do 00:02:00.399 --> 00:02:05.759 a cutout here for routing various stuff 00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:10.759 uh under the bottom of the motherboard same thing here and uh to the back of 00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:17.080 the uh to the back of the back plate I'm also going to do a CPU cutout just so 00:02:13.239 --> 00:02:20.400 that I can easily change CPU blocks and 00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:23.400 yeah so here's a couple cuts having been 00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:25.519 made with the Dremel for the CPU cutout 00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:30.200 going to do two more of those and then I think the last cut is going to be down 00:02:28.040 --> 00:02:37.560 here for the cable management and and we're making some progress here and more 00:02:33.720 --> 00:02:39.440 progress so I have done the CPU cutout 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:43.560 that's some freehand dremeling right there actually pretty straight All 00:02:41.519 --> 00:02:50.760 Things Considered should I have marked it yes but I didn't so there you go so 00:02:48.239 --> 00:02:55.640 now there's see there's a door for the uh for the CPU cutout so uh that'll give 00:02:53.480 --> 00:02:59.920 me the ability to close it off when I'm when I don't want act no I'm just 00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:04.879 kidding I'm going to just take that off off there all right so there you go now 00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:10.879 I will be able to easily install CPU coolers or remove them without any 00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:12.599 difficulty um I'm also really not sure 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:16.840 what to do about this that looks kind of goofy with that uh little Gap there so I 00:03:15.440 --> 00:03:22.159 might just take this all the way to the edge but I might just leave it I mean it's in the right position and sort of 00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:25.760 the right size for the eight pin now all that's left is I want to do some Cuts 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:30.280 sort of along the bottom here so that I can uh run things like front panel 00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:36.319 connectors and stuff like that behind the motherboard without without any 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:38.640 difficulty so more progress it's all 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:42.080 good all right so let's call that pretty much it for this personal rig update so 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:50.159 I've thrown the hardware back into the case just so that I can do a little bit of test fitting so uh number one is the 00:03:47.239 --> 00:03:53.879 hole for the eight pin connector is good and I'll be able to run sort of fan 00:03:52.079 --> 00:03:56.280 wires through there and stuff and anywhere where I don't want to run fan 00:03:55.079 --> 00:03:59.959 wires through here if I want it to be even more hidden there's also a hole 00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:03.400 drilled here I should widen that a little bit before I'm done actually I 00:04:01.760 --> 00:04:07.760 can take these ones and those ones cathode lights um can have their wires 00:04:06.200 --> 00:04:15.159 run through there so this yeah actually know what this might just be for uh for 00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:17.519 the eight pin um so what else have we 00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:20.400 got that's new other than that you're not going to be able to see many changes 00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:27.199 from this side so you can see now I can run the um the SATA cables from my RAID 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:31.759 card to the back of the motherboard tray where all of the drives will go just 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:37.120 find my my one of my things are drives so the drives will go back here and then 00:04:34.919 --> 00:04:41.840 the uh SATA data cables will come through here from the back so I've cut 00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:47.120 two more cable management holes this one's for like front USB or um front 00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:52.080 panel connectors all that kind of stuff I was thinking about cutting one here 00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:55.840 for SATA cables if I ever decide to plug the drives directly into the motherboard 00:04:53.440 --> 00:05:00.160 but I decided not to so there's the you can see the motherboard cutout is lined 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:04.600 up correctly so I've got access to all four holes back here there's that 00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:11.039 eight pin I decided against cutting holes over here for 24 pin and PCIe um 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:15.520 there's just I don't think there's any perfect way to do this so unfortunately 00:05:12.960 --> 00:05:19.479 I am stuck with mounting the t- virus kind of here we'll just be kind of 00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:22.680 hovering off the motherboard tray there and uh this is going to just go around 00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:29.240 it and this is just going to go around it yes I know it's not ideal but I don't 00:05:25.479 --> 00:05:30.880 really see um a better way to do 00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:34.000 everything at this point with how much Hardware I'm cramming in here I mean 00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:39.560 remember this is going to be full of a radiator um I thought about doing a mid 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:41.199 plate here but just time and effort 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:44.479 constraints I'm not going to end up doing it so I'm just going to get the 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:49.120 whole thing powder coated once I've made all the cuts oh right more cuts that I 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:55.280 need to do so I need a way to get all these cables up past here past here cuz 00:05:53.520 --> 00:06:00.120 the side panel closes right against this so I'm going to cut big holes here to 00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:05.160 here so that I can move all my my cables up this way I'm going to widen this one 00:06:02.840 --> 00:06:08.520 right here and that's going to give me two really good options actually you 00:06:06.880 --> 00:06:13.199 know what I'll probably do I'll probably do something here as well three good 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:17.560 options to get cables from the back of the system down to the bottom of the 00:06:15.280 --> 00:06:21.280 system without running them through the existing cable routing holes here so 00:06:19.520 --> 00:06:25.680 that should pretty much fix my only complaint about the tj07 well no my two 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:29.880 only complaints cable Management's terrible and the uh the inter interior 00:06:27.840 --> 00:06:32.880 should be black so once we get the cut and powder coated we should be good to 00:06:31.440 --> 00:06:37.039 go thanks for checking out my personal rig update and stay tuned for more I'm 00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:40.960 hoping to actually get this done within the calendar year I know I call it 00:06:38.840 --> 00:06:47.120 personal rig update 2012 so so we're on the clock here if it runs into 2013 my 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:47.120 title will no longer be correct
