WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.240
apple may have made some progress on the new 2019 mac pro but even if we can't

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:13.200
beat them to market we are still dedicated to finishing off our custom

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:14.960
overclocked 2019 hack pro and while we

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:19.520
were able to get to the point of test fitting everything last time today is

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:24.080
gonna be a much more complete build and everything you see in front of me 1200

00:00:21.840 --> 00:00:29.599
watt power supply new SSD that works properly on our motherboard custom cable

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.439
mod cables uh these brackets that we

00:00:29.599 --> 00:00:36.719
need to fit everything together all of that is going in including tubing

00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:42.160
so we can get to the point where we can actually leak test our water cooling

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:44.320
loop and find out how ready to go this

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:48.000
thing is speaking of ready you were ready for this segway weren't you ridge

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:08.240
so because of how cramped everything in this build is going to be we actually

00:01:06.080 --> 00:01:12.320
need to install all the components of it in a specific order so we're starting

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:18.240
here with the fittings on our motherboard both for the CPU as well as

00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:21.439
for this bits power vrm block that we've pre-installed on the board now i know

00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:25.119
some of you are going to be disappointed but again due to the cramped nature of

00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:29.119
the build we've opted for soft rather than hard tubing so my apologies but

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:35.040
with the way that some of these runs need to go it was not going to be realistic to

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:37.920
hardline to this thing now that our fittings are on the board we're going to

00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:42.640
lay down our power cables that need to run behind the board approximately where

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:47.119
they need to go so you probably noticed that our board has two 24-pin power

00:01:44.880 --> 00:01:51.520
connectors we don't need to use both of them so we're just going to use the one

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:53.520
i'm going to run that right about yeah

00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:59.840
then we've got two dual 8-pin pci express connector cables

00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:04.880
here and these are long but they need to go a

00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:08.479
long way so we're going to run these right about there

00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:11.440
with our cables in place the next step is to install our motherboard tray and

00:02:10.160 --> 00:02:16.560
this has gotten some pretty great modifications since last time it went on

00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:17.920
a bit of a diet so it's lighter and it's

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:23.360
got a really clever little mounting mechanism that uses these uh

00:02:20.239 --> 00:02:25.440
kind of these ball and socket

00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.760
joints here to just watch this

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:33.440
snap snap snap snap and it just holds it in place like

00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:38.160
that we have screws too right awesome

00:02:34.959 --> 00:02:41.440
and i put in all of them

00:02:38.160 --> 00:02:41.440
so i guess i don't really need to

00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:49.440
now it's screwed in it's not going anywhere it's amazing what a couple

00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:53.120
cables and a motherboard backplate do towards making something look like a

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:56.080
real case eh alright now it's time to throw in our motherboard which by the

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.840
way guys does still work

00:02:58.720 --> 00:03:05.840
man this motherboard is like almost

00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:08.080
comically large for this case okay and

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:12.319
down it goes there we go

00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:12.319
that one should go in pretty good

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:21.120
next we're going to put in our graphics cards and while i'd love to tell you guys that we're going to put in our pci

00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:25.280
slots today unfortunately these mounting holes for the radiator here need to be

00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:30.799
moved down about three millimeters very very very small error and then also

00:03:28.720 --> 00:03:34.720
we need to rethink the way that the top is done up here to account for the curve

00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:39.440
of the case so once that's done we're gonna go ahead and recess the area

00:03:36.959 --> 00:03:42.799
around here plop this in here and then once it's painted it should be

00:03:41.200 --> 00:03:46.959
completely seamless i'm sorry but we're gonna have some

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:50.640
saggy graphics cards again but hey at least they're water cooled now

00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:57.920
actually that one doesn't say too bad see it kind of rests on there oh yes

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:01.280
ah here we'll just put this wire here and then there you go

00:03:59.760 --> 00:04:04.799
now it doesn't sag now we can go ahead and tube this up

00:04:05.200 --> 00:04:12.560
that is looking sharp oh boy this is going to be a real tight

00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.560
radius here

00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:19.680
oh boy now it's time for us to mount our pump

00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:23.440
to our radiator this isn't really my favorite mounting style from an

00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:26.840
aesthetic standpoint but there just weren't really a ton of options for us

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:32.340
in terms of making it fit get in there you're red bastard

00:04:30.400 --> 00:04:33.840
so then i'm just gonna put this in

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:38.960
that's uh i guess the res needs to go on the underside of the cables there or

00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:43.440
what that is where our janky homemade bracket

00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:49.840
comes in well it might be kind of flimsy and made of sheet metal but what it does

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:56.960
is gets our fittings out of the way of the motherboard oh

00:04:52.320 --> 00:04:58.560
okay really not the best mount ever

00:04:56.960 --> 00:05:04.160
guys don't think of it as flimsy and janky think of it as anti-vibration

00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:08.160
fans will be at the front or on the yeah oh yeah yeah it's not

00:05:06.960 --> 00:05:13.919
perfect but it might just be enough yep we've got a

00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:19.840
little bit more access there that should be good enough now we just need to pull it back out

00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:24.639
and do this run which is going to be really hard for us to get at once the

00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:27.520
radiator is installed and bolted in and while we've got easy access to it we're

00:05:26.320 --> 00:05:32.639
going to go ahead and throw on this other tube that's going to go over to our top graphics card and this one right

00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:37.759
here that's going to go over to our vrm cooler for the motherboard the last

00:05:36.320 --> 00:05:42.800
little trick up our sleeves wait what about the fans that go in the front of the red

00:05:40.880 --> 00:05:46.639
six now we can throw our fans on the radiator uh we'll be using black ones

00:05:45.280 --> 00:05:50.240
one other thing we're gonna change in the final build is the way that this

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:55.520
pressure mount for the front radiator works instead of just

00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:59.120
sitting in it like this at the front of the case there's actually going to be a

00:05:57.199 --> 00:06:03.280
locking mechanism at the top but for now we're just going to kind of wedge it in

00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:07.840
there so bear with me here for a sec we will just deal with these

00:06:05.520 --> 00:06:07.840
later

00:06:09.520 --> 00:06:14.880
um like it's one thing to

00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:19.680
cat out a model that everything fits into it's another to actually

00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:25.199
fit them in yeah i need to get these PCIe cables

00:06:22.960 --> 00:06:29.759
out of my darn way here oh yeah can you reach those for the

00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:31.360
optical drive hey there we go

00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:37.440
oh lordy i haven't even put the top one in yet oh i'm trying

00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:42.720
there we go okay

00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.720
yeah i might have had to do this before

00:06:45.280 --> 00:06:49.840
nicholas do you want to hold this graphics card for a second

00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:56.740
there we go and then if you just hold it kind of like that

00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:58.479
can you do that okay cool

00:06:58.479 --> 00:07:06.160
i got it i got it i'm getting over it

00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:06.160
who's not getting over the lip now

00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:15.199
that's definitely got some friction on it all right can i help you with this video

00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:19.120
card now you did this definitely needs a thicker piece of

00:07:17.520 --> 00:07:21.440
metal here i think yeah oh man

00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:27.599
yeah i don't think there's any getting around it man this is one of the tightest builds

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:31.460
ever and i mean that in both senses of the word it's tight you know also it's like

00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:37.360
really tight it turns out our measurements were ever

00:07:34.960 --> 00:07:41.280
so slightly wrong for the vrm block and we might not be able to get away with

00:07:38.960 --> 00:07:44.319
using full 25 millimeter thickness fan so for now

00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:47.280
we're fitting in some of these slim fans from silverstone

00:07:45.840 --> 00:07:50.160
and then do you mind actually supporting that bottom GPU just to touch them yeah

00:07:49.039 --> 00:07:55.919
that's good okay then we need to rotate

00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:57.360
this radiator into place and yeah

00:07:55.919 --> 00:08:00.800
we're just going to mash that against the back for now but in the final build

00:07:59.440 --> 00:08:05.919
obviously that would be screwed into place

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:09.360
got all this space here no problem

00:08:05.919 --> 00:08:09.360
just kidding power supply time

00:08:09.919 --> 00:08:15.440
so it goes in here but i'm afraid i'm at

00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:19.199
a bit of a loss as to how exactly this bracket figures into it

00:08:17.520 --> 00:08:23.199
basically it's going to sit there oh my god

00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:26.560
and just like that that's the mount and that's terrifying all right you know

00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:32.320
what what the hey we might as well put this thing in right wait a minute so the

00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:33.279
bracket needs to go on here

00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:37.919
uh yeah what the f

00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:43.039
and then the connectors need to go in what the f you know what i think we can

00:08:40.880 --> 00:08:46.320
make it work though just need to

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:49.519
plug everything in ahead of time yeah this isn't too bad

00:08:47.839 --> 00:08:56.000
and we're just plugging in one eight pin connector per all right actually CPU right

00:08:53.279 --> 00:09:00.240
okay so that'll be screwed in right there basically

00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:03.040
and then this goes

00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:06.839
right there basically

00:09:04.560 --> 00:09:11.600
oh but this way ah oh wow

00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:14.640
that is one trained cable right there all right it's in

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:17.920
so that goes there and then i got this now

00:09:16.560 --> 00:09:22.560
and this one goes right there on the other side

00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:26.800
there we go 1200 watt power supply

00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:30.399
here can i have that that thing yeah perfect

00:09:30.880 --> 00:09:37.680
there we go uh now i just need the last tube right

00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:43.120
uh actually i think it's two tubes two tubes

00:09:38.560 --> 00:09:45.600
where's my other last two oh oh oh

00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:50.800
i didn't realize you didn't put this in oh crapsicles i guess i have to hook it

00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:53.040
up if we're gonna be leak testing today shoot

00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:58.800
okay i can do this i am strong

00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:01.200
okay got it

00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:06.800
it's on all right and then uh

00:10:05.040 --> 00:10:11.440
so this one goes over to here

00:10:09.040 --> 00:10:14.640
are you sure yeah this one looks really long

00:10:15.040 --> 00:10:18.959
wow that's a little overkill

00:10:18.160 --> 00:10:22.160
you just yep there's

00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:26.959
what is it doing okay here we go

00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:32.640
that is the most overkill thing we've ever done

00:10:30.640 --> 00:10:36.959
he said while building a like spec for spec replica of the new

00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:40.959
mac pro and i wonder why anyone would just

00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:45.040
buy a mac seems crazy doesn't it

00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:48.320
oh my god this would be basically impossible to hardline like anything can

00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:53.600
be done you know blah blah blah human human

00:10:50.880 --> 00:10:57.519
spirit etc ingenuity but like no

00:10:56.160 --> 00:11:02.079
we really need to get the right size tubing for the final build

00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:05.279
actually you know what would make it a lot easier if we just had a cup of hot

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:09.839
water oh yeah so as some of you noticed we've been a little wishy-washy about what

00:11:08.560 --> 00:11:13.600
we're using for storage and that's because we had a little bit of trouble

00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:18.480
finding an add-in card that supports multiple ssds like this one here that

00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:22.959
has the plx chip that it needs to bifurcate the 16x slot or i guess what

00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:26.640
is it called quadrifercate i don't know it doesn't is it still called

00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:32.079
bifurcation if it's four way is it okay so this from amfel tech is

00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:39.200
called the squid family rev 2.3 gen 3 m.2 carrier or

00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:45.839
we might go with this SSD from a company called liquid either way we're going to

00:11:42.560 --> 00:11:47.040
go ahead and install it

00:11:45.839 --> 00:11:54.000
here we go in the slot right next to that GPU

00:11:51.920 --> 00:11:58.399
and the crazy thing is we've got dual Radeon 7s in here now we've got a high

00:11:56.640 --> 00:12:02.560
speed what is this like a three terabyte SSD or something stupid like that yeah

00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:09.120
and we still have four pci express slots for further expansion

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:15.440
oh what do you got there um just recently oh awesome so this is our

00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:18.240
ac wi-fi and bluetooth 4.0 add-in card

00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:22.800
that apparently is macOS compatible so we can throw that on it is going to live

00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:27.600
in that yeah it's going gonna be a little hard to get out right now

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:32.720
what do we think that look pretty good yeah we'll figure the wire out later

00:12:29.839 --> 00:12:37.600
okay so sorry i i stand corrected three pci express slots for expansion now oh

00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:40.639
yeah uh how are we dealing with the power cord for the power supply

00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:44.880
basically under here you'll just plug it in cool

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:48.000
we're still roughly out of the way can we get it here

00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:53.279
um no shout out to oh canada supply for this

00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:56.800
awesome workshop so we promised leak testing but

00:12:54.959 --> 00:13:01.440
this doesn't look like water this is actually a fun new toy we just got our

00:12:58.560 --> 00:13:06.720
hands on from ek and what it is is it's a way of pressurizing your water cooling

00:13:03.680 --> 00:13:09.519
system with air then if you have any air

00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:12.720
leaks you can assume that your loop well leaks and how does this work exactly

00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:18.160
which one do we hook up to does it matter um we can pull off

00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:22.320
any of the easy fittings easy fittings i know yeah sure let me get right on that

00:13:20.959 --> 00:13:29.120
so what i'm doing right now is i'm plugging this graphics card block right here

00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:33.279
all right then i'm hooking the fitting that was screwed into it into my

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:38.079
pressure tester now we pump you up

00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:48.720
now we play the waiting game

00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:51.040
two hours later we're back and it's all

00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:55.360
good so we can go ahead and disconnect this we know our water cooling loop is

00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:55.360
gonna work now

00:13:58.160 --> 00:14:06.160
so all that's left is to close out this video by

00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:10.560
closing up our machine but there is one more surprise for you

00:14:08.880 --> 00:14:15.440
ladies and gentlemen ah yes

00:14:13.199 --> 00:14:21.519
i'm sure you didn't expect an LTT project to not have any RGB

00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:28.560
yes my friends we are actually going to be replacing the stock apple logos with

00:14:25.199 --> 00:14:30.399
LTT logos complete with RGB backlighting

00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:34.880
so check this out basically it's just an acrylic puck that

00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:37.839
has an LTT logo etched into it we're probably going to have to do some

00:14:36.079 --> 00:14:40.560
sanding on the top and we may have to coat the back of it in order to get a

00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:47.360
nice even amount of lighting once we've got leds around the edges but man am i ever

00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:50.480
thrilled with how this build's going down honestly

00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:54.959
this might be the mac that gets me to switch to a mac
