1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,520
As you guys probably just saw on the main channel, the humble PC, Sammy kind of caught me

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,120
when I started ripping it apart. We had to actually take the CPU out because they're doing a ShortCircuit

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,440
on that specific CPU. And so Sammy was just like, hey, let's talk about the humble PC.

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,560
Cause you know, it was actually my first time water cooling and I know we joked about it in the video,

5
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,480
but I was really nervous doing this whole build and I was really excited.

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,360
In the end, I only actually bent two tubes,

7
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:29,760
which was these two. But to my credit, okay, Linus said they were good,

8
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,820
hard stop period. It wasn't supposed to have any bends.

9
00:00:32,820 --> 00:00:36,620
We were actually supposed to use these corner fittings on absolutely everything.

10
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,000
But then Linus was like, nah, that's not very humble. It was an interesting project to work on.

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,920
There was lots to do with it. The case was tons of fun to work with

12
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,200
for being like kind of a niche Etsy style case

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,360
from a one-off builder.

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:59,080
We also ran into like a whack ton of issues on the shoot. The shoot, I don't know if it'll show up in the full video,

15
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:04,080
took eight, 10 hours of assemble time

16
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,360
and a lot of that was double stacked people. So like me and Linus or me and Jake.

17
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:14,040
There was one part during the video where Linus had like 35 minutes before writer's meeting

18
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:19,720
that he had to be at. And so me, him and Jake were speed building, bending.

19
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,560
There was like four, like six hands all just like working on this.

20
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:28,040
Meanwhile, Vance is standing in the background like writer's meeting in 10 minutes, Linus.

21
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,120
He's like, yep, we're, Jake. But man, it came together

22
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,200
and if you see the B roll in the full video, it looked frickin' awesome.

23
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,280
It was so sick. Well, is there anything interesting about the computer

24
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,440
that didn't make it to the main video? Oh, you know what?

25
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,400
The monoblock. I know we're gonna cut out a huge chunk.

26
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,840
I just threw a screw. I cannot lose that screw. Nah, ooh, crap, I'm drippin' water.

27
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,560
Linus went into this very confident with this monoblock. He's done however many now, so many.

28
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,960
When we started going, we just ripped everything apart, started to try to put it all back on

29
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,480
and put it back together. We didn't realize that there's slightly different revisions

30
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:07,160
between this one and like revision one. This is like revision 1.1 or something.

31
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,080
And it actually uses a mixture of the original motherboard hardware.

32
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,520
So like one of these standoffs and then some EK stuff.

33
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,960
So we ended up getting mixed and matched and it was horrible.

34
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,120
The monoblock alone took an hour and a half. And I wanted to die the entire time

35
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,560
because I was like, this is gonna take forever.

36
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,640
They had originally planned two hours for this shoot. And if it was an hour and a half for the monoblock,

37
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:35,640
you can kind of imagine how I was feeling. So, hey, Glenith.

38
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,480
Glen, come here. I wanna ask you questions.

39
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,800
The floaters wanna ask you. How was the shoot? It was long.

40
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:49,920
It was long. It was very long. The second day it was 10 a.m. start till 6.30.

41
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:53,760
Yeah, and basically we started, we went with Linus for like what,

42
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,920
two and a half, three hours. He bailed to go do another shoot.

43
00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:01,480
We kept going. It was good though, it's fun. Oh yeah, it's really fun.

44
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,040
And it looked amazing in the end. I actually have a really good picture on my phone

45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,560
and I'm sure you guys got good B-roll too but when it was on the wall,

46
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,880
it casted this really cool rainbow effect from the water block.

47
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,320
Totally worth it. And it worked in one try. So no leak, no nothing.

48
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,960
Yeah. That was great. I was so excited. For a first custom build,

49
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,720
I was like, this is gonna leak. Especially because we added stupid fittings.

50
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,320
This one here. Linus was like, we could get a longer tube

51
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,480
or we could add humility extenders is what he ended up calling them.

52
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,880
All right, I gotta go back and do the B-roll. I'm sorry. He's a busy man.

53
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,160
Thanks for your quick lead, bye. The ended value of this PC was something stupid

54
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,160
because the computer case we paid on eBay for 330 U.S.

55
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,040
and each of these fittings is $12.

56
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:54,040
For example, these corner fittings, $12, $12, $16.

57
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,560
So EK was kind of a big bro on this, man.

58
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,680
They sent it all over, like didn't even ask a question. They were like, sure.

59
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,080
And sneak peek for you guys on Floatplane. A while back on Reddit,

60
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,920
I had asked what would a CEO PC be like? And you guys had ended up voting,

61
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,280
it would be chrome or gold. Well, we're gonna take these fittings

62
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:21,760
and deploy them on Taren's PC, which we got a case ordered by the way

63
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,760
from Sinister Cases.

64
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,000
I think when we ordered it, it was $5,000 U.S. Geez, how much does it know?

65
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,400
They've dropped the price a little bit. I think it's because we're actually still getting

66
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:39,180
like a more premium material. I have to go back through my emails, but we're getting like an insane computer.

67
00:04:39,180 --> 00:04:43,160
And then putting these gold fittings on it, it's like, the computer's gonna be stupid.

68
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,080
It's gonna be like a $10,000 art piece, essentially. And it's gonna be in his office

69
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:54,040
and he's gonna still use his laptop. So yeah, but yeah.

70
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,320
Usually you'd buy like a six pack or something from EK for like 20 or 22 bucks or whatever.

71
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:04,960
I don't actually know. Again, never water cooled, but $6 a fitting or $12 a fitting is insane.

72
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,200
Man, it was nerve wracking, but in the end I had a ton of fun water cooling

73
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,040
for the first time. I'll never do it again. I'll never water cool.

74
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,940
It was dumb. And like the amount of work

75
00:05:15,940 --> 00:05:21,100
and just the worry and the panic and whatever, but for these type of builds,

76
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:26,220
sure, maybe we'll water cool again in the future. What's what takeaway for anyone that wants to water cool their PC?

77
00:05:26,220 --> 00:05:29,460
Planning is definitely important. And it's what we ended up doing, right?

78
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:33,320
You know, planning the loop order, planning the parts you're gonna use.

79
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,140
It's really, really important. I think one thing that does help is having experience.

80
00:05:37,140 --> 00:05:41,520
So watching a ton of videos or if you have a buddy that like has done it before,

81
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,180
ask for help because there's no shame in asking for help the first time you do it.

82
00:05:45,180 --> 00:05:46,980
There's shame the second time, but.

83
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:54,580
Planning it out and making sure you have everything. Have tons of extras, you know, like buy 10 extra fittings

84
00:05:54,580 --> 00:06:01,860
because you never know if you're gonna break O-rings or something, right? Saying that buying 10 extra $12 fittings is $120.

85
00:06:01,860 --> 00:06:07,140
Don't rush it yourself. Take your time doing it. You know, we're, we had three,

86
00:06:07,140 --> 00:06:11,220
well, two pretty expert people doing water cooling and then a junior.

87
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:14,620
So we took some paths of, okay, let's spend this like this.

88
00:06:14,620 --> 00:06:17,980
This is great. It works, you know, we split up the workload.

89
00:06:17,980 --> 00:06:24,020
So it looked chaotic and looked very rushed for us, but, you know, we knew what we were doing the whole time.

90
00:06:24,020 --> 00:06:27,900
Well, at least they did. I was just water cooling, yay.

91
00:06:27,900 --> 00:06:31,260
Water going, whoosh. Yeah.

92
00:06:31,260 --> 00:06:36,380
Oh man, and filling it was interesting in this PC because some PCs, you know, when you have your tower,

93
00:06:36,380 --> 00:06:42,520
you'll have like your fill port at the top and at your highest location. And for us, it ended up being this hole right here.

94
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,560
So when it was up vertically, that's your highest point.

95
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,480
But the problem is when you're filling it, you're kind of filling it laid down

96
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:55,320
or you're on a weird, awkward angle. So for our case, filling it was very strange and very odd.

97
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,440
Yeah, you can actually see in there. I don't know if the lighting will be bad. So yeah, that O-ring actually got mangled

98
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,280
because if you look, this pipe wasn't cut perfectly clean.

99
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:07,360
I don't know if it'll pick up very well on camera. Yeah, it's kind of tough to see, but,

100
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,640
but because of those sharp edges, you know, we ended up breaking an O-ring off,

101
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,200
which is a little annoying. Spend more time sanding, taking it a little bit slow, you know,

102
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,040
but...

103
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,880
Ah! Uh-oh, and don't lose those. What'd you draw?

104
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,360
The rubber O-rings. Right there.

105
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,200
Don't lose those. Do you have any questions, Sammy? Have you ever water-cooled a PC?

106
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,440
No, I specifically requested never buy anything water-cooled

107
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,920
because it looks like some tassel. Yeah, I mean...

108
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,600
I only buy AIOs and never cleaned it. Technically, AIOs, you're supposed to like refill

109
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,640
and, you know, all that stuff too. Yes, you are.

110
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,960
Don't say no, just because you don't doesn't mean you're not supposed to.

111
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,640
Yeah, you guys are supposed to, but just like, you're supposed to say like, we're a seatbelt. Not sure I should say that, am I?

112
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,360
You're supposed to wear a seatbelt, but I don't.

113
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,000
No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Do you guys, did you know that

114
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,640
when seatbelts were becoming like mandatory, there was actually a movement where you could buy a t-shirt

115
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,760
that had a black bar going from the top left to the bottom right,

116
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,240
so that way you could wear the t-shirt in the car. So it would look like you're wearing your seatbelt

117
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,120
and so you wouldn't get pulled over. I feel like it's more effort, you should wear your seatbelt.

118
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,440
I know. How much does it all roughly cost? Do we mention that in the video?

119
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,560
Oh, we didn't even mention that in the video.

120
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:36,080
I would have to do the math. The cable mod cables alone are another like 125

121
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,800
if you bought them, 150. This GPU is like pre-blocked.

122
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,840
I think it's 2400 or something like that. You can't even buy this GPU anymore, actually.

123
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,800
The metal fans are also like 100. I'll get Sammy the number, he can flash it on screen here

124
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,920
unless he doesn't want to, cause he's lazy. So when I joined the writing department in August,

125
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,720
or no, I joined the writing department in about September, mid-September.

126
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,080
This shoot had already been planned and it was actually gonna be Alex's video,

127
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,960
but Alex didn't wanna do it. He basically just got distracted,

128
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,880
was doing a bunch of other stuff, right? He didn't have time for this build.

129
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:18,120
So one of my first assignments was, Elijah, you're taking over the humble PC.

130
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,520
I had no idea what it meant. So when I went to do a scrum with Linus,

131
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,320
which is what we do a little bit of planning before to make sure there's even a video,

132
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,000
I was like, what's the goal of this video? He's like, humble PC.

133
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,000
I just dripped water all over this RAM, very cool.

134
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,520
Oh, God. Aw.

135
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,480
Can you cut this, Sammy? I don't want anyone, no, Sammy, please cut this. It was all me.

136
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,160
Sammy, please cut this. No, no, no, no, no. Wait, it's just water.

137
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,160
No, no, no. Got busy, didn't end up getting it done. And so when I scrummed with Linus,

138
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,200
all he said was, it is humble PC.

139
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:57,600
And I kid you not. And I was like, what does that mean? He's like, it is humble PC.

140
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,120
What does that mean? Well, apparently the guy's listing on Facebook slash,

141
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:09,680
or on eBay slash Etsy, it just said, humble PC made to hang magnificent computer

142
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,600
part on wall. So I had to decipher what that meant from Linus.

143
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,000
And there you go. It was one of the first videos I was assigned

144
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,040
and it just kept getting delayed because I ended up doing the AMD upgrades

145
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,640
and so many other videos. Oh my God.

146
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:30,000
It's falling down. I haven't hurt myself

147
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,360
more than 10 times since. That's not a statement.

148
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,040
It is a statement. It's a factual statement. That's not a statement you should be proud of.

149
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,320
You know what? You're right.

150
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,160
Ah!

151
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:51,120
It is humble PC.

152
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,360
This PC is the PC that will humble you.

153
00:10:56,560 --> 00:11:01,480
Oh, crazy. So would you do anything different about this shoot?

154
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,160
Rather than making it not spend an hour and a half on the monoblock?

155
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,020
Yeah, I probably wouldn't have done, I mean, that's probably one of the biggest ones. I probably wouldn't have done a monoblock

156
00:11:10,020 --> 00:11:14,720
or I would have had the, it's tough. This is one of the things that people don't understand

157
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,960
from a viewer's side. So I'm gonna give you guys a little bit of insight. Sometimes we hear, oh, why wasn't this planned?

158
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,960
Why wasn't this done beforehand? Or why did we spend so long on specific parts?

159
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,880
And it comes down to one of two reasons. Number one is we want to include it in the video.

160
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:35,560
For example, if we just had the CPU in there with the monoblock installed, there would have been someone

161
00:11:35,560 --> 00:11:39,240
being like, how do we know it is a 1400KS in there?

162
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:45,120
How, what if it's just an I-38th gen, right? Like people don't, if you don't see it,

163
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,520
they don't get it sometimes. And the other reason why we do it is

164
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:54,200
because Linus tells us we have to. And in this case, he said monoblock.

165
00:11:54,200 --> 00:12:01,740
I mean, did it make the video better with the monoblock? I think I had some good laughs with Linus.

166
00:12:01,740 --> 00:12:07,660
I think the result might have been the exact same, whether it was a monoblock or a CPU block.

167
00:12:07,660 --> 00:12:11,700
But that is up for interpretation. People can leave it in the comments.

168
00:12:11,700 --> 00:12:15,260
Yeah, I leave it in the comments. I don't know. I know all of you would have been like,

169
00:12:15,260 --> 00:12:19,100
it would be better with two monoblocks. I don't know.

170
00:12:19,100 --> 00:12:23,260
If you guys have questions, you can leave them in the Floatplane comments and I'll log into my Floatplane account

171
00:12:23,260 --> 00:12:27,980
and maybe answer some of them. Other than that, I really hope you guys enjoyed both that video and even just a sneak peek

172
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:31,980
of how video production works and my first time water cooling.

173
00:12:31,980 --> 00:12:35,300
If you guys want to see more water cooling, just don't ask about it for me,

174
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:40,860
but we'll see how it goes. Thanks, float. What do you guys call Floatplane people now?

175
00:12:40,860 --> 00:12:46,260
I don't know. We did floaties, floaters, pilots, passengers, pilots.

176
00:12:46,260 --> 00:12:50,660
Floatatins. That's my word. All right, float. Have a good day, floatatins.

177
00:12:50,660 --> 00:12:52,780
That's really hard to say. Floatatins.
