why oh that's so nice the case is on
fire the case is on fire our friends from hacksmith industry came all the way
to Vancouver to show us something amazing Elias has absolutely no idea
what it is I am so stoked do you want to see this I think so as long as it's not
too dangerous
we brought two
don't drop don't get hit by the flames and don't die there's nothing in this no
this is just a flame expander to make sure that we don't get liquid propane on
the computer oh my God that's the ignition Source that's we're gonna light
the whole thing off oh shut up I'm in just like I'm in to tell you about our
sponsor AMD AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX and
XT are some of the best graphics card options for 4K gaming under a thousand
dollars check them out at the link in the video description pretty simple
setup got liquid propane goes into our electronics box so right now we're just
running it at full power and then that goes into our uh propane expander this
gets Sub-Zero theoretically this can drop down to negative 42 degrees Celsius
and then we have our flame expander that just has uh you know a nice warming
effect all right so you can just oh that's fun
okay
is that on no it's not on that should be on yeah probably yeah yeah what could go
wrong we do have a fire extinguisher handy can someone actually be holding
this no okay that'll be here let's just see how we're doing here wow minus 25 at
the cooling side and what's our flame doing uh more than 130 yeah can someone
me the principle of this I mean I understand that the liquid propane is
extremely cold right air conditioners work by having a liquid that expands
that cools the thing you compress that compressor and turn it back into liquid
yes here instead you're just burning it think about it this way right let's say
you have a natural gas line going into your house instead of just burning it for your natural furnace you can also
use it to cool your computer and that tank will last a good two hours I mean
it's not the first time we asked Mother Earth to take one for the team I guess the flame expander is standard 240
millimeter mounting so that just goes right on you know top mounted CPU Cooler
are we actually doing that yeah it is literally the hottest CPU Cooler this
goes for a while hey yeah there's a lot of liquid in here right so like all of
that has to evaporate before it actually shuts down give her a little you know
yeah I can actually warm it up with your hands it goes quicker for the components
of our sub-zeroed on fire PC we have an I9
13900k for the motherboard it's a strix
e z790 for a GPU we have the strix 4090
and this thing is a freaking Beast now we do have two not a flamethrower PC
coolers and we just want to put two of them on the CPU that'll be so much more
fun all of these components spare the GPU are actually going in the spiffing
Brits PC so uh Tom if you're watching this I am incredibly sorry that I put
Vaseline all over your motherboard before we go any further we need to just
set a baseline 39 512 points in
cinebench she freaking rips what do you call this fiery boy
you know what they say any machine is a smoke machine if used wrongly enough ah
it's actually fine 38 degrees that'll feel a little bit warm to your hand give
a man a fire keep them warm for the day set a Man on Fire keep it warm for the
rest of his life one of my absolute favorite things on these new ASUS boards
is that instead of having to stick your hand in there to hit the little PCIe
release thing there's a little switch a little button right there now you might
be wondering why did I take this apart if we're not going to be Sub-Zero
Cooling and that's because I want to have an external voltage controller so
what we are doing is by just very simply sticking a little header here that
allows us to connect to the i2c bus and with that we're going to talk to the
voltage controller and be like what about you give us just way More Voltage
than you think you should and then it does then we have a very fast GPU right
now since we don't have a 3900 the only way I can make a mounting bracket for it
is by buying a mounting bracket that already existed and then hoping to match
up the bolt patterns I think this is a Cooler Master bracket that I got from
Amazon and hopefully it fits onto this motherboard oh I think I can do you one
better we have this thing it has all of the
bolt patterns piece of new so you go like this we're actually going
to want to take this socket cover right off and underneath it we're going to put
a little bit of artists eraser when there's air and your Sub-Zero
condensation forms condensation on the back of your CPU you know where this
ends foreign
to see now dear viewer I would like to apologize the storyline for the strix
and the external voltage controller ends right here we tried to get it to work
later but sadly our monitor was melting and we ran out of time instead of
installing this retention bracket on that came with the motherboard we're
going to use this thermal Grizzly CPU contact frame before we put this on
though please everybody clip this and send it
to spiff there we go I forgot to uh conformal
coat the bits all the little chips that are around here will have a solution
how do you feel right now
I can get in into lots of cooling on a single into line iron heck yeah
get fit two beside each other there so we got two radiators the plan is to put
one here
and then that will create a lot of Fire now instead of three brackets we have a
single double bracket basically we've just mutilated one of our mounting
brackets so we can mount two of the coolers onto a single CPU that'll give
us full coverage of not just the dye but also the integrated heat spreader that
will actually double our total cooling
capacity uh Alex
my motherboard is stuck
you it'll be fun next time Alex wow
you're cooling a computer with a fire extinguisher no no this piece of near
pretty might be a little bit bigger than the case can handle uh hmm
let's just mount it like normal using the thing you brought add some more
Dielectric grease that'd be fine neoprene's nice but since we have schmut
it just do that yep all right I can tell
you this isn't going to be enough you will literally have water dripping off
the back of this bracket we have to keep air off it the best part is if we do
this outside there probably won't even be any condensation on this it still
smells like propane in here you guys see the thing that they add to propane to
make it really nice and smelly it lasts for about three to six months is what
I've read online I just did the math on how much heat this is going to create
okay well for reference electricity a kilowatt hour is equal to 3 400 BTUs
we're going to be close to half a million
this might actually be more expensive than I'm running liquid nitrogen you
guys know that we just have like bolt down kits right yes but I don't know
where it is going back to my office it's in I looked for that so long yesterday
do you know why I keep my bolt through in this bin in my office because we had
lots of them and nobody puts them back where they're supposed to be which is
why we don't have those other ones and mine is not in here anymore what the
hell happened to my bolt through why can't people return things oh this is
cute I did find one cool thing in here though check this out this pen has a Lee
and Lee catalog I would call this whole thing Half Baked but with like half a
million BTUs I think it's probably full baked maybe even over baked one thing's
for sure it's baked see my initial prototype was 200 watts and Alex is like
that's not enough double it I was like okay so that was 400 watts and Alex was
like I wonder if we can put two of them on here yes I know I work with them
every day what do you want if we had 200
Watts on this thing that CPU would be hotter than the sun this is what it
takes to make me even more grateful for my team that I work with working with
someone else's as soon as I asked
contact you're probably like oh
no should we you've had enough thoughts Alex this ain't no amateur hack job
that's why we're using propane
that's one of the worst things you've ever said man I've seen builds from our
community using actual computer cooling components that look less clean than
this yeah I feel like there's not many people that are running the 3900 with a
40 90 all overclocked modded and sub-zeroed so we might set some high
scores here you'd be surprised how many Nerds have already set those high scores
the difference is that their system is Not Practical day to day yeah in the
Canadian weather it's great for heating your house fifth fingerbread's Gonna Get
Us computer it is going to be covered in dialectical grease and smell like propane it's going to be very confused
yeah In fairness his computer was already going to be kind of confusing
anyway because it's going to be cooled by T so
well he's British Virgin people from Vancouver they don't clear off any of
their stuff realize how long it would take to just like
I cleaned out the spot under the fan so it won't be sucking snow up into the
power supply that's thoughtful it was Brandon's idea
there's no in the USB connector fine once you turn your computer off
it'll solve itself when I have the ability to dump over 20 liters an hour
of propane through this computer
I see nothing that could go wrong feel like we're going through a nuclear
launch sequence or something all right Alex you want to go ahead and hit it
sure
yeah further away oh oh that's so nice yeah
that is very nice so that clicky noise is actually the solenoid being
controlled by the pan header keep the flame at a minimum while the CPU is uh
not doing any work I see uh we're at minus 10 degrees Celsius so far minus
11. but and this is with restraint this
is with the regulator going our pilot flames
this is a proud Canadian tradition the annual computer cook should we be
worried about the Flames being on the lines it'll be okay for a little bit
they're directly in the fire though yeah it's probably not ideal yeah they're
they're kind of smoking they're they're cooking and we want to get these out of
the way yeah there's a bit of wind if you've got a bit of wind factor going on
oh I don't know that I want this to be that close no no it's fine it's fine because we're going to rotate it this
way it is oh yeah that power supply is now
sucking in snow just uh yeah perfect oh
okay yeah it should be fine well do you
want to hit it again ah
oh your mother is getting a little toasty now ideally we don't cook the
monitor ah um wow the front of this case is looking
pretty gnarly wow she's sweating boys
all right hold on Becca monitors warping a little oh that's not great
oh that's too hot on the hands that's really hot wow okay all right so we're
gonna overclock this thing or what let's get a baseline run with the with the cooling distance to TJ Maxx 100 degrees
starting to give us some froth on the back as long as the frost doesn't turn
into water we're good CPU package one degree Celsius 39 795 points what was
our Baseline 39 500. Oh so we got like
300 points wow XTU has a new automatic
overclock should we just hit it and see what happens let's see what it thinks of this CPU package we're currently
consuming 260 Watts 40 481 points though
should we just give her the beans see what happens
all right we are now deregulated who needs regulations but you can't be any
geek off the street oh my goodness I don't know if Max was a very good idea
the fittings are on fire the case is on fire oh yeah the plastic at the front of
the case is on fire who was it who didn't want to have the fire
extinguisher handy you I think I can solve this ah
did you turn it off yeah I turned it off oh boy why yeah we can just press that
one okay it's back on in case it hasn't been adequately covered yet the Flames
themselves are not what are doing the cooling these are propane cylinders
instead of having them right side up so they release gaseous propane we flip
them upside down so that they release liquid propane which is between negative
40 and negative 45 degrees Celsius that runs through this regulator right here
which then dumps that liquid propane directly onto our CPU now obviously
liquid propane is gonna have to go somewhere it gets heated by the CPU
turned into a gas and then released through these tubes into our flame
expander up here where obviously it's going to be lit on fire so you can roast
marshmallows all right do you guys think this can do six gigahertz um yeah and
we're gonna turn it on to Max again ah it's running extended bench right now at
60 gigahertz oh it's actually at 95 degrees so uh it did six no problem what
score did we get 40 990. yeah I think
that we can do 41 pretty easily here crackers oh yeah I could really go for
some by the way I love your portable marshmallow roaster if you wanted hack
some dust store would you like a pair of safety glasses too safety oh 41 604
6.1 gigahertz not too bad 4.5 on all the
efficiency cores this thing's actually ripping it may not be as cold as some
methods of cooling but it certainly has plenty of cooling capacity oh wow that's
really hot since we're getting some liquid coming through at full power the
bottom is actually completely frozen over if we had a maze style design or
otherwise more complex evaporator head over the CPU it's possible we could be
seeing much better heat exchange and getting better efficiency out of our
propane cylinders oh it's hot so it
turns out having flames on your stuff does make it go faster oh I don't know
if we can do 6.3 all core six points all core 6.2 that would be impressive
so hot let's do your math do this what's
up Jay also the CPU is running at 6.4 gigahertz right now nice
okay oh yeah it's a little unpredictable
oh no the back of the monitor is all liquidy again oh balls Oh my Jesus it's
very ergonomic now no more sharp Corners I don't think that's whoa oh and it
crash okay crashed and burned just like
