WEBVTT

00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:13.360
well it's personal rig upgrade time so for those of you who aren't familiar

00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:22.080
with my personal gaming machine it's a Silverstone tj07 with some antech

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:24.800
900 uh CASE front cover so that I can

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

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

00:00:35.480 --> 00:00:42.079
network card uh 926d LSI raid card

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

00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:51.600
I've got some UV called cathodes positioned sort of around different

00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:57.800
places good for lighting effects cuz this is UV Blue tubing I've got a

00:00:54.440 --> 00:01:01.559
quadruple 120 mm Thermo chill rad so

00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:03.680
that's a total of 6x1 12 with the Dual

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

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:13.360
actually a lot of the uh the cooler Hardware that's going on in here so

00:01:11.119 --> 00:01:19.159
we've got an mcubed T balancer which helps me control all the fan speeds so

00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:22.439
um it uses the temperatures that it gets from various probes in order to adjust

00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:27.000
fan speeds or even turn them off entirely when I don't need them that is

00:01:24.479 --> 00:01:34.159
eight yeah these are these are stacked double here so that is eight for course

00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:36.960
120 gig Corsair ssds running off that

00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:42.880
LSI RAID controller so that is a total of 9 whatever 800 and something gigs of

00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:50.119
SSD storage for my boot Drive uh ENT Max Revolution 1050 watt

00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:53.479
power supply check out this fluid it's

00:01:50.119 --> 00:01:56.039
like so murky needs to be cleaned out

00:01:53.479 --> 00:02:01.079
and uh and replaced so that'll be part of this procedure my trusty mCP 655

00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:06.920
which has been running for about 3 years now without a hiccup and um I apologize

00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:13.160
for the cabling mess on the back here but uh

00:02:10.200 --> 00:02:17.040
yeah yeah we're not we're not really doing anything differently probably with

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

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

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

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:36.519
here it's not too bad right okay so what are we doing first of all

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

00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:44.280
with an XFX Pro 1000 limited edition 80

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:47.840
plus Platinum power supply what I like about this one so

00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:53.080
much and I mentioned this during the unboxing is the hybrid fan control so

00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:58.840
that switch is right here which basically allows it to turn the fan off

00:02:55.920 --> 00:03:04.640
entirely under low loads this is a silence freak Enthusiast PC that is why

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:08.560
I have all the fans controlled by the T balancer most of the fans are actually

00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:14.319
off during day-to-day operation with only the ones on the bottom radiator

00:03:10.799 --> 00:03:16.120
running at a nominal nominal speed so

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.120
adding this will allow me to turn off this fan which has been kind of

00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:24.080
bothering me um kind of 90% of the time anytime I'm not running something very

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:28.519
intensive what I'll also be doing is I will be adding silver fittings so these

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:32.840
are bits power true silver compression fittings please Focus

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:37.360
please Focus there we go bits power true silver compression fittings to anywhere

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

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.519
this again because it is antimicrobial which means stuff will not grow in the

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

00:03:50.239 --> 00:03:56.200
this is It's a gd65 x79 a gd65 8D

00:03:54.640 --> 00:03:59.480
haven't quite decided on the RAM configuration I'm either going to leave

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

00:04:04.040 --> 00:04:14.000
special Linus Edition never existed for

00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:16.000
anyone but me RAM skew so this is uh see

00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:19.359
matches the uh motherboard really really well that was why I specifically

00:04:17.840 --> 00:04:23.040
requested this color of spreader it's like DDR3 2000 or something like that so

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

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

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

00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:43.440
classified liquid cooled card and the

00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:45.120
piece that I am most proud of oops you

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

00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:56.600
centerpiece of this build is going to be my limited edition swifttech apple G HD

00:04:53.639 --> 00:05:00.160
goldplated water block so there it is the limited edition stickers on there

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:08.400
somewhere there we go limited edition number

00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:11.880
169 soing with the bits

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:15.000
power true gold compression fittings I'm

00:05:11.880 --> 00:05:17.560
normally anti- two-tone but I had to do

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

00:05:20.520 --> 00:05:26.680
black and silver and blue other than the water block or I'll leave in the

00:05:24.960 --> 00:05:30.759
Copperheads just to have them matching so uh there's going to be a couple

00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:37.199
challenges because unlike the revolution 1050 watt which uh has four SATA cables

00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:39.880
per modular connector this guy has three so it means I might have to widen this

00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:44.800
hole a little bit to get another connector up there alternately I can not

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

00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:51.199
stuff but we'll figure it out and uh

00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:54.600
yeah hopefully there will be some kind of a performance Improvement especially

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

00:05:56.960 --> 00:06:03.160
from a 980x to a 39

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:05.240
60x but uh should be able to render your

00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:11.000
guys' videos just a little bit faster and get games going uh quite a bit

00:06:07.599 --> 00:06:14.199
faster with the liquid cooled GTX

00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:16.120
590 so thank you for checking out this

00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:20.560
little teaser video of my upgrade and I'm probably not going to update you

00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:21.919
guys again until it's done but uh who

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:26.080
knows I might show some in progress depends on what you guys demand so what

00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:32.160
are we going for here we're going for more power more efficiency

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

00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:42.120
become a little bit well gunked up and

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

00:07:05.599 --> 00:07:12.759
let's see if he wants to uh to visit

00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:15.720
here hold on going to do this thing

00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:15.720
let's see if he jumps on my

00:07:17.280 --> 00:07:23.000
shoulder oh no he just wants to nuzzle right

00:07:20.599 --> 00:07:29.120
now can probably hear him purring oh maybe not well there we go I

00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.120
think we're done here
