1
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:13,360
well it's personal rig upgrade time so for those of you who aren't familiar

2
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:22,080
with my personal gaming machine it's a Silverstone tj07 with some antech

3
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:24,800
900 uh CASE front cover so that I can

4
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:32,040
have a dual 120 mm radiator there in the front and then I've also got uh a 980x

5
00:00:29,119 --> 00:00:39,440
CPU with 2 4 gigs of RAM Big Bang X power GTX 480 liquid cooled killer Xeno

6
00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:42,079
network card uh 926d LSI raid card

7
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:47,840
hooked up to uh eight ssds in the back got an ASUS Zonar sense going on there

8
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:51,600
I've got some UV called cathodes positioned sort of around different

9
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:57,800
places good for lighting effects cuz this is UV Blue tubing I've got a

10
00:00:54,440 --> 00:01:01,559
quadruple 120 mm Thermo chill rad so

11
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:03,680
that's a total of 6x1 12 with the Dual

12
00:01:01,559 --> 00:01:09,680
120 in the front and the quadruple 120 in the bottom um on the back we find

13
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:13,360
actually a lot of the uh the cooler Hardware that's going on in here so

14
00:01:11,119 --> 00:01:19,159
we've got an mcubed T balancer which helps me control all the fan speeds so

15
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:22,439
um it uses the temperatures that it gets from various probes in order to adjust

16
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:27,000
fan speeds or even turn them off entirely when I don't need them that is

17
00:01:24,479 --> 00:01:34,159
eight yeah these are these are stacked double here so that is eight for course

18
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:36,960
120 gig Corsair ssds running off that

19
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:42,880
LSI RAID controller so that is a total of 9 whatever 800 and something gigs of

20
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:50,119
SSD storage for my boot Drive uh ENT Max Revolution 1050 watt

21
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:53,479
power supply check out this fluid it's

22
00:01:50,119 --> 00:01:56,039
like so murky needs to be cleaned out

23
00:01:53,479 --> 00:02:01,079
and uh and replaced so that'll be part of this procedure my trusty mCP 655

24
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:06,920
which has been running for about 3 years now without a hiccup and um I apologize

25
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:13,160
for the cabling mess on the back here but uh

26
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:17,040
yeah yeah we're not we're not really doing anything differently probably with

27
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:21,200
it this time around I mean there's a few things in here that are kind of you know

28
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,440
sleeved but I don't worry too much about the cabling on the back as long as the

29
00:02:22,879 --> 00:02:31,000
cabling on the front's okay and it's not too bad right come on guys reassure me

30
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:36,519
here it's not too bad right okay so what are we doing first of all

31
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:41,920
power supply is got to go it's only 80 plus silver so we'll be replacing that

32
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:44,280
with an XFX Pro 1000 limited edition 80

33
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:47,840
plus Platinum power supply what I like about this one so

34
00:02:46,599 --> 00:02:53,080
much and I mentioned this during the unboxing is the hybrid fan control so

35
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:58,840
that switch is right here which basically allows it to turn the fan off

36
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:04,640
entirely under low loads this is a silence freak Enthusiast PC that is why

37
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:08,560
I have all the fans controlled by the T balancer most of the fans are actually

38
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:14,319
off during day-to-day operation with only the ones on the bottom radiator

39
00:03:10,799 --> 00:03:16,120
running at a nominal nominal speed so

40
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:20,120
adding this will allow me to turn off this fan which has been kind of

41
00:03:17,319 --> 00:03:24,080
bothering me um kind of 90% of the time anytime I'm not running something very

42
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:28,519
intensive what I'll also be doing is I will be adding silver fittings so these

43
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:32,840
are bits power true silver compression fittings please Focus

44
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:37,360
please Focus there we go bits power true silver compression fittings to anywhere

45
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:42,040
where I can put them this will allow me to avoid having my water Gunk up like

46
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:46,519
this again because it is antimicrobial which means stuff will not grow in the

47
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:54,640
loop I will also be upgrading to LGA 2011 so we've got an MSI uh whatever

48
00:03:50,239 --> 00:03:56,200
this is It's a gd65 x79 a gd65 8D

49
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,480
haven't quite decided on the RAM configuration I'm either going to leave

50
00:03:58,079 --> 00:04:07,120
those copper heads in there because they look ball in or I'll uh throw in my ocz

51
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:14,000
special Linus Edition never existed for

52
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:16,000
anyone but me RAM skew so this is uh see

53
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:19,359
matches the uh motherboard really really well that was why I specifically

54
00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:23,040
requested this color of spreader it's like DDR3 2000 or something like that so

55
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:28,800
I might throw those in there and just go for four dims 16 gigs um haven't quite

56
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:33,000
decided yet so we'll we'll figure that out later and I'm also upgrading the

57
00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:39,600
graphics card so from a GTX 480 I'm going to be going with an EVGA GTX 590

58
00:04:35,759 --> 00:04:43,440
classified liquid cooled card and the

59
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:45,120
piece that I am most proud of oops you

60
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:49,840
know what guys give me a sec here the piece that I am most proud of the

61
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:56,600
centerpiece of this build is going to be my limited edition swifttech apple G HD

62
00:04:53,639 --> 00:05:00,160
goldplated water block so there it is the limited edition stickers on there

63
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:08,400
somewhere there we go limited edition number

64
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:11,880
169 soing with the bits

65
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:15,000
power true gold compression fittings I'm

66
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:17,560
normally anti- two-tone but I had to do

67
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:23,360
it so like I said I'm either going to go with this RAM and keep the color scheme

68
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:26,680
black and silver and blue other than the water block or I'll leave in the

69
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,759
Copperheads just to have them matching so uh there's going to be a couple

70
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:37,199
challenges because unlike the revolution 1050 watt which uh has four SATA cables

71
00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:39,880
per modular connector this guy has three so it means I might have to widen this

72
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:44,800
hole a little bit to get another connector up there alternately I can not

73
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:49,759
run this Molex and then I can use a s a Molex adapter in order to power all this

74
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:51,199
stuff but we'll figure it out and uh

75
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:54,600
yeah hopefully there will be some kind of a performance Improvement especially

76
00:05:52,919 --> 00:06:00,160
in games I'm not expecting too much in the way of a CPU performance boost going

77
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:03,160
from a 980x to a 39

78
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,240
60x but uh should be able to render your

79
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:11,000
guys' videos just a little bit faster and get games going uh quite a bit

80
00:06:07,599 --> 00:06:14,199
faster with the liquid cooled GTX

81
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:16,120
590 so thank you for checking out this

82
00:06:14,199 --> 00:06:20,560
little teaser video of my upgrade and I'm probably not going to update you

83
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,919
guys again until it's done but uh who

84
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:26,080
knows I might show some in progress depends on what you guys demand so what

85
00:06:24,639 --> 00:06:32,160
are we going for here we're going for more power more efficiency

86
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:39,479
and uh to clean out to clean out the old water cooling gunky Loop that's uh

87
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:42,120
become a little bit well gunked up and

88
00:06:39,479 --> 00:06:46,759
got my cat attacking my leg so we're going to call it quits here on this one

89
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:12,759
let's see if he wants to uh to visit

90
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:15,720
here hold on going to do this thing

91
00:07:12,759 --> 00:07:15,720
let's see if he jumps on my

92
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:23,000
shoulder oh no he just wants to nuzzle right

93
00:07:20,599 --> 00:07:29,120
now can probably hear him purring oh maybe not well there we go I

94
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:29,120
think we're done here
