three okay so I'm hanging out here in the IB power suite and they've actually
got something pretty cool on display that I wanted to show you guys so this
is the arabus they've got a video playing behind me on sort of a makeshift
projector screen to show some of the cool features but since we have the
benefit of having one here in person we can actually just check out what's going
on right down and dirty in the system so
here we have okay bear with me here because this is going to take a while
it's a very high number we have one two
three four radiators in the system so
that is three dual RADS and one
quadruple rad up in the top of the system so they have completely overbuilt
this case in terms of the water cooling potential that it can handle now not
only can you mount all those radiators but you have tons of room for whatever
other Hardware you could possibly want to throw at it so for one thing you can
handle a very long power supply okay for the next thing you can handle up
to up to six hard drives and I'm going to go ahead and assume that like their
other sliding rails these are 2 and 1/2 in ready and if someone can this is a
very early prototype so I'm just going to go ahead yeah there's a mounting hole
there so we got no problems there up to four 5 and a/4 in Bays so this is going
to be designed for system integration which means that a lot of those
customers are going to want not only a reader and a writer but maybe also a fan
controller and since you don't have to worry about how to hook all that stuff
up their technicians are going to do it for you then I have I have no problem
with seeing that that number of 5 and 1/4 in Bays on a case like this because
they can make sure that that's all taken care of we've got a very high-end
completely custom cooling solution here so we're running cool an radiators cool
an quick connects we've got a lang pump so they've really gone a Step Beyond
using cookie cutter water cooling components they're using the ones that
are actually designed to last a long time Lang pumps are number one pretty
much I have a l pump running in my system I've had for over 3 years nonstop
and there are countless stories like that this is actually the D5 I believe
um what else do we have here to talk about so we got some Max Vans which
falls in line with the color scheme that they're using we've got I actually don't
know what motherboard this is but it looks like one of the one two 3 four
five six no only seven expansion slots in that particular board although oh no
no yeah this is their uh this is the ud7
so this is an x58 motherboard so we've got support for triple Channel memory
core i7 extreme core processors and they've not only water cooled so let's
let's look at everything we've water cooled in this system the CPU and three
graphics cards and three-way SLI but they've also water cooler cooled the
mosfets on this board and they are using an EK water block for that so like I
said fully custom fully awesome components not nothing that's off the
shelf and then what are we using it looks like we're using coolant blocks on
the gpus now you've got this is a full cover motherboard water block so you've
got not only the mosfet cool but also the North nor bridge and the South
Bridge if you want to come down here and look right down there you can actually
see that it is almost completely covered in liquid cooled metal we're using uh
compression fittings which I a big fan of because it's very very difficult to
lose your seal with compression fitting even over time and they're using 90°
fittings in order to really keep and even some 45 Dee fittings that's that's
a nice touchdown there to keep the tubing flow from uh from kinking and
keep from having any issues with that particular aspect of it so thank you to
my makeshift cameraman here so so that I could show you the arabus and don't
