WEBVTT 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 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 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. 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, 00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:19.480 but I was really nervous doing this whole build and I was really excited. 00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:23.360 In the end, I only actually bent two tubes, 00:00:23.360 --> 00:00:29.760 which was these two. But to my credit, okay, Linus said they were good, 00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.820 hard stop period. It wasn't supposed to have any bends. 00:00:32.820 --> 00:00:36.620 We were actually supposed to use these corner fittings on absolutely everything. 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. 00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.920 There was lots to do with it. The case was tons of fun to work with 00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:49.200 for being like kind of a niche Etsy style case 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:50.360 from a one-off builder. 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, 00:00:59.080 --> 00:01:04.080 took eight, 10 hours of assemble time 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. 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 00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:19.720 that he had to be at. And so me, him and Jake were speed building, bending. 00:01:19.720 --> 00:01:23.560 There was like four, like six hands all just like working on this. 00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:28.040 Meanwhile, Vance is standing in the background like writer's meeting in 10 minutes, Linus. 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:31.120 He's like, yep, we're, Jake. But man, it came together 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:35.200 and if you see the B roll in the full video, it looked frickin' awesome. 00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:38.280 It was so sick. Well, is there anything interesting about the computer 00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.440 that didn't make it to the main video? Oh, you know what? 00:01:41.440 --> 00:01:44.400 The monoblock. I know we're gonna cut out a huge chunk. 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. 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. 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 00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:02.480 and put it back together. We didn't realize that there's slightly different revisions 00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.160 between this one and like revision one. This is like revision 1.1 or something. 00:02:07.160 --> 00:02:11.080 And it actually uses a mixture of the original motherboard hardware. 00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:14.520 So like one of these standoffs and then some EK stuff. 00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.960 So we ended up getting mixed and matched and it was horrible. 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 00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:24.560 because I was like, this is gonna take forever. 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, 00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:35.640 you can kind of imagine how I was feeling. So, hey, Glenith. 00:02:36.720 --> 00:02:40.480 Glen, come here. I wanna ask you questions. 00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:43.800 The floaters wanna ask you. How was the shoot? It was long. 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. 00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:53.760 Yeah, and basically we started, we went with Linus for like what, 00:02:53.760 --> 00:02:57.920 two and a half, three hours. He bailed to go do another shoot. 00:02:57.920 --> 00:03:01.480 We kept going. It was good though, it's fun. Oh yeah, it's really fun. 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 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, 00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:12.880 it casted this really cool rainbow effect from the water block. 00:03:12.880 --> 00:03:16.320 Totally worth it. And it worked in one try. So no leak, no nothing. 00:03:16.320 --> 00:03:19.960 Yeah. That was great. I was so excited. For a first custom build, 00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:24.720 I was like, this is gonna leak. Especially because we added stupid fittings. 00:03:24.720 --> 00:03:28.320 This one here. Linus was like, we could get a longer tube 00:03:28.320 --> 00:03:32.480 or we could add humility extenders is what he ended up calling them. 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. 00:03:35.880 --> 00:03:40.160 Thanks for your quick lead, bye. The ended value of this PC was something stupid 00:03:40.160 --> 00:03:45.160 because the computer case we paid on eBay for 330 U.S. 00:03:45.440 --> 00:03:49.040 and each of these fittings is $12. 00:03:49.040 --> 00:03:54.040 For example, these corner fittings, $12, $12, $16. 00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.560 So EK was kind of a big bro on this, man. 00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:02.680 They sent it all over, like didn't even ask a question. They were like, sure. 00:04:04.160 --> 00:04:08.080 And sneak peek for you guys on Floatplane. A while back on Reddit, 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, 00:04:12.920 --> 00:04:17.280 it would be chrome or gold. Well, we're gonna take these fittings 00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:21.760 and deploy them on Taren's PC, which we got a case ordered by the way 00:04:21.760 --> 00:04:23.760 from Sinister Cases. 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? 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 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. 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. 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 00:04:47.080 --> 00:04:54.040 and he's gonna still use his laptop. So yeah, but yeah. 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. 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. 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 00:05:08.200 --> 00:05:12.040 for the first time. I'll never do it again. I'll never water cool. 00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.940 It was dumb. And like the amount of work 00:05:15.940 --> 00:05:21.100 and just the worry and the panic and whatever, but for these type of builds, 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? 00:05:26.220 --> 00:05:29.460 Planning is definitely important. And it's what we ended up doing, right? 00:05:29.460 --> 00:05:33.320 You know, planning the loop order, planning the parts you're gonna use. 00:05:33.320 --> 00:05:37.140 It's really, really important. I think one thing that does help is having experience. 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, 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. 00:05:45.180 --> 00:05:46.980 There's shame the second time, but. 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 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. 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, 00:06:07.140 --> 00:06:11.220 well, two pretty expert people doing water cooling and then a junior. 00:06:11.220 --> 00:06:14.620 So we took some paths of, okay, let's spend this like this. 00:06:14.620 --> 00:06:17.980 This is great. It works, you know, we split up the workload. 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. 00:06:24.020 --> 00:06:27.900 Well, at least they did. I was just water cooling, yay. 00:06:27.900 --> 00:06:31.260 Water going, whoosh. Yeah. 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, 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. 00:06:42.520 --> 00:06:45.560 So when it was up vertically, that's your highest point. 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 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. 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 00:06:59.440 --> 00:07:03.280 because if you look, this pipe wasn't cut perfectly clean. 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, 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.640 but because of those sharp edges, you know, we ended up breaking an O-ring off, 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, 00:07:16.200 --> 00:07:17.040 but... 00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:24.880 Ah! Uh-oh, and don't lose those. What'd you draw? 00:07:24.880 --> 00:07:28.360 The rubber O-rings. Right there. 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? 00:07:33.200 --> 00:07:37.440 No, I specifically requested never buy anything water-cooled 00:07:37.440 --> 00:07:40.920 because it looks like some tassel. Yeah, I mean... 00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:46.600 I only buy AIOs and never cleaned it. Technically, AIOs, you're supposed to like refill 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.640 and, you know, all that stuff too. Yes, you are. 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. 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? 00:07:58.640 --> 00:08:01.360 You're supposed to wear a seatbelt, but I don't. 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 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 00:08:10.640 --> 00:08:14.760 that had a black bar going from the top left to the bottom right, 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 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. 00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:26.440 I know. How much does it all roughly cost? Do we mention that in the video? 00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:28.560 Oh, we didn't even mention that in the video. 00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:36.080 I would have to do the math. The cable mod cables alone are another like 125 00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:41.800 if you bought them, 150. This GPU is like pre-blocked. 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. 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 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, 00:08:56.920 --> 00:09:00.720 or no, I joined the writing department in about September, mid-September. 00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:05.080 This shoot had already been planned and it was actually gonna be Alex's video, 00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.960 but Alex didn't wanna do it. He basically just got distracted, 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:12.880 was doing a bunch of other stuff, right? He didn't have time for this build. 00:09:12.880 --> 00:09:18.120 So one of my first assignments was, Elijah, you're taking over the humble PC. 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, 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, 00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:30.000 I was like, what's the goal of this video? He's like, humble PC. 00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.000 I just dripped water all over this RAM, very cool. 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:35.520 Oh, God. Aw. 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. 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:44.160 Sammy, please cut this. No, no, no, no, no. Wait, it's just water. 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, 00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:52.200 all he said was, it is humble PC. 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. 00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:02.120 What does that mean? Well, apparently the guy's listing on Facebook slash, 00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:09.680 or on eBay slash Etsy, it just said, humble PC made to hang magnificent computer 00:10:10.640 --> 00:10:14.600 part on wall. So I had to decipher what that meant from Linus. 00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:18.000 And there you go. It was one of the first videos I was assigned 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:21.040 and it just kept getting delayed because I ended up doing the AMD upgrades 00:10:21.040 --> 00:10:24.640 and so many other videos. Oh my God. 00:10:24.640 --> 00:10:30.000 It's falling down. I haven't hurt myself 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:36.360 more than 10 times since. That's not a statement. 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. 00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:44.320 You know what? You're right. 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:45.160 Ah! 00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:51.120 It is humble PC. 00:10:52.880 --> 00:10:55.360 This PC is the PC that will humble you. 00:10:56.560 --> 00:11:01.480 Oh, crazy. So would you do anything different about this shoot? 00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:06.160 Rather than making it not spend an hour and a half on the monoblock? 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 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 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? 00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:24.960 Why wasn't this done beforehand? Or why did we spend so long on specific parts? 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. 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 00:11:35.560 --> 00:11:39.240 being like, how do we know it is a 1400KS in there? 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, 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.520 they don't get it sometimes. And the other reason why we do it is 00:11:48.520 --> 00:11:54.200 because Linus tells us we have to. And in this case, he said monoblock. 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. 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. 00:12:07.660 --> 00:12:11.700 But that is up for interpretation. People can leave it in the comments. 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, 00:12:15.260 --> 00:12:19.100 it would be better with two monoblocks. I don't know. 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 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 00:12:27.980 --> 00:12:31.980 of how video production works and my first time water cooling. 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, 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? 00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:46.260 I don't know. We did floaties, floaters, pilots, passengers, pilots. 00:12:46.260 --> 00:12:50.660 Floatatins. That's my word. All right, float. Have a good day, floatatins. 00:12:50.660 --> 00:12:52.780 That's really hard to say. Floatatins.
