WEBVTT 00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:05.600 so this is the most excited I've been about putting something on a test bench 00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:10.840 in quite some time we've got our whole room water cooling setup video series 00:00:08.559 --> 00:00:13.719 and well just doing it building five systems that are all running on the same 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:18.240 water cooling Loop and then spitting the heat out of the house sort of project 00:00:16.279 --> 00:00:23.279 coming up but of course there's some preparation that needs to be done so I 00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:26.800 always preach to people that especially if you're going to be liquid cooling a 00:00:24.599 --> 00:00:30.519 rig you should really be building it air cooled outside of a case first to make 00:00:29.279 --> 00:00:35.480 sure that everything's working before you go and put a bunch of work into it 00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:37.840 so this is the first one that I'll be testing 00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:48.680 out with the purchase of a qualifying Intel processor SSD or knck you could 00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:52.680 instantly win an Intel gaming Jersey and be entered in the draw for the ultimate 00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:56.520 system click now to learn more so here it is here's the setup that my son is 00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:59.640 helping me with are you going to build that one 00:01:00.199 --> 00:01:06.200 yeah okay good job you work on that all right well I show everyone the hardware 00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:10.880 that we are going to be putting into these rigs now this one is the one that 00:01:08.759 --> 00:01:16.119 I'm uh really excited about cuz it's not quite the same as the others they're all 00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:18.159 getting Kingston 240 gig ssds for the 00:01:16.119 --> 00:01:23.479 boot drives because most of our storage is going to be uh on the nas they're all 00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:27.560 getting Cooler Master V series 750 W power supplies so there are modular 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:31.000 power supplies 30 plus gold all that good stuff we're not overdoing it on the 00:01:29.479 --> 00:01:36.240 wattage because there isn't really a benefit to that they are all getting 00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:37.880 NVIDIA GTX Titan black edition cards 00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:43.360 zoom out a little bit taking all of its glory and they're all running on ASUS 00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:47.640 x79 Deluxe motherboards ASUS really does a great job of those high-end boards and 00:01:45.399 --> 00:01:53.399 we uh we we really like this particular one quite a lot but while most of them 00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:57.320 will be running cor i7s and then 32 gigs 00:01:53.399 --> 00:01:59.479 of DDR3 memory this one will be running 00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:05.600 ah yes what's that okay it might only say 2.7 GHz on the spreader there but uh 00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:11.400 that's a pretty good 2.7 GHz cuz it's to all 12 of its cores and 24 threads this 00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:17.200 is going to be a Zeon based workstation as opposed to a core i7 based one and 00:02:14.040 --> 00:02:20.519 along with that Zeon we've got 64 gigs 00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:22.480 of Kingston DDR3 because instead of 32 00:02:20.519 --> 00:02:28.680 gigs like the other workstations this one is getting double the memory because 00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:31.599 edzel is a memory hog and needs pretty 00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:37.160 much as much RAM as I can throw at him that's also why he's getting the 12 core 00:02:33.720 --> 00:02:39.599 Zeon because for certain workloads like 00:02:37.160 --> 00:02:46.440 say for example 3D rendering you're going to get more benefit from more 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:49.000 cores than you will from faster cores so 00:02:46.440 --> 00:02:53.840 unfortunately uh we can't make use of ECC memory which would allow us to get 00:02:51.440 --> 00:03:00.720 higher capacities like 128 gigs on one board um using 16 gig dims but 8 8 gig 00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:04.360 dims for a total of 6 4 gigs hopefully will be enough for him for the time 00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:08.080 being now one thing I've asked Kingston for is some higher speed memory for that 00:03:06.519 --> 00:03:11.680 rig cuz again with the other ones it doesn't matter that much so we'll see if 00:03:09.799 --> 00:03:16.920 they come through and send us some 1866 stuff but for now we're going to do the 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:19.480 pre-build and validation and get going 00:03:16.920 --> 00:03:23.720 on this so the build process for this rig isn't really anything exceptional I 00:03:21.799 --> 00:03:27.640 mean it's motherboard CPU RAM it's all that stuff it's just the hardware that 00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:30.599 we're using that's pretty darn cool so as always it starts with the board I did 00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:36.200 notice the c CPU was a little bit different is actually um actually wider 00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:38.480 than most LGA 2011 CPUs then putting in 00:03:36.200 --> 00:03:41.599 all that RAM was one of those chores that you have to kind of enjoy a little 00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:47.120 bit there's something satisfying about putting 64 gigs of RAM into a system 00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:51.040 stick by stick by stick by stick um after that it's time to put some thermal 00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:54.560 compound on the CPU then we're going to get our power supply in place get that 00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:59.920 plugged into the motherboard something to note guys I put the power supply in fan side down that would suffocate it 00:03:57.920 --> 00:04:04.760 that's bad make sure fan side is up ignore the b-roll I did fix that before 00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:07.239 I actually turned the system on um after that we're going to go ahead and get the 00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:11.040 water cooling installed so you put in the four posts uh put the block over top 00:04:09.760 --> 00:04:15.959 of the thermal compound we already applied we're using a dual radiator liquid cooling system even though when 00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:21.600 this is done it'll actually be hooked up to something much cooler and much more 00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:24.759 extreme uh we plug in our SSD and then 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:27.680 the uh cherry on top is the GTX Titan 00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:31.440 Black Edition so that's it guys it's done uh this is this is part of the 00:04:29.440 --> 00:04:35.240 process process we building something outside of the box to make sure that 00:04:33.080 --> 00:04:38.440 everything is running okay and this is it Moment of Truth time so let's go 00:04:36.840 --> 00:04:43.479 ahead and flip the switch on the power supply 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:45.600 and there we go hopefully everything 00:04:43.479 --> 00:04:51.600 works all the actions happening here until the screen illuminates so uh as 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:57.960 long as that okay keep doing things yeah there we go okay so let's see if all 00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:02.960 went well we should see something about 00:04:57.960 --> 00:05:04.400 12 cores and uh 64 gigs of RAM on the 00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:12.919 screen at some point here there we go there we go something something 2700 MHz 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:15.960 okay 65 I guess the round gigs of RAM 00:05:12.919 --> 00:05:18.840 CPU fan error all right everything is 00:05:15.960 --> 00:05:23.039 detected let's head into the BIOS and uh do some rudimentary tuning so the first 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:27.919 thing that you're always going to want to do is head over to advanced mode cuz 00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:33.840 Advanced Mode's for cool kids and then change it so that it boots in into 00:05:30.080 --> 00:05:36.560 advanced mode every time and now you 00:05:33.840 --> 00:05:41.160 know normally a normal person's reaction to a rig like this might be wow I've 00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:44.880 never touched a CPU that's worth $2500 I better be extremely careful with it but 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:50.039 my reaction's a little bit different so we're going to go with can we overclock 00:05:47.080 --> 00:05:54.639 it a little bit now xeons are not overclockable the same way that core i7s 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:59.280 are on this platform where you just turn up the multiplier and it's Off to the 00:05:57.039 --> 00:06:02.280 Races in fact I'll show you guys if we try to change the multiplier to anything 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:08.400 higher than 27 it just automatically changes to 27 00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:13.039 so we're not going to be able to use the multiplier to overclock now on Modern 00:06:10.599 --> 00:06:17.280 Intel platforms it's multiplier times base clock equals the overall frequency 00:06:15.400 --> 00:06:23.599 and you can overclock base clock but not much on early x79 boards you were lucky 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:26.479 to get maybe 105 MHz so we're going to 00:06:23.599 --> 00:06:32.440 see if we can get even 105 MHz because that'll be a 5% overclock on 12 cores so 00:06:30.599 --> 00:06:38.280 I'm going to show you guys uh what we're going to try so first of all we change 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:45.080 to manual oopsy daisies change to manual we're going to key in 105 here then for 00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:47.440 the ratio we want Auto for the dam 00:06:45.080 --> 00:06:53.319 frequency normally we would leave it at 1600 MHz cuz this is 1600 MHz RAM but in 00:06:50.599 --> 00:06:57.440 this case I don't really I'm not really a huge fan of overclocking memory if you 00:06:55.919 --> 00:07:03.039 don't have to I mean we can play around with it later but first we want to make sure our CPU stable so we're going to 00:07:00.919 --> 00:07:07.080 pick something that is going to give us a frequency that is lower than 1600 MHz 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:11.520 so that we know that memory is not holding us back here uh extreme over 00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:15.360 voltage we're not going to overvolt the CPU as much as I believe in you know 00:07:14.280 --> 00:07:20.800 trying to squeeze a little bit more performance out of a chip like this it's a 12 core chip we're not going to go and 00:07:19.039 --> 00:07:24.160 just throw more volts at it the last thing we want is to damage the thing so 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:28.000 we're going to be going for whatever we can get without overvolting it and 00:07:26.400 --> 00:07:34.479 potentially reducing the lifespan this is a a work machine not like a gaming 00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:37.720 rig so we can't afford any uh any 00:07:34.479 --> 00:07:40.080 instability so these are not XMP memory 00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:43.440 module so we're going to key in our voltage manually and uh you know what 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:48.280 I'm not going to bore you guys with the tediousness of keying in all that other 00:07:45.919 --> 00:07:55.240 stuff manually so let's just go ahead and find the last thing I need where are 00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:58.280 you CPU configuration the last thing I 00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:01.360 want is to make sure that turbo boost is 00:07:58.280 --> 00:08:03.879 on it might be somewhere in 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:08.440 here CPU performance settings here we go yeah so turbo mode needs to be enabled 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:12.840 so now what we've effectively done by leaving the core ratio at Auto and 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:19.840 increasing our base clock is we've made it so that our CPU will continue to 00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:21.840 Turbo all the way up to 3.5 GHz plus 5% 00:08:19.840 --> 00:08:26.080 in a single threaded application and while it would normally turbo to 3 GHz 00:08:23.919 --> 00:08:31.919 with all 12 cores we're going to get 3150 MHz so a 5% Improvement let's see 00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:31.919 how it 00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:40.719 goes all right so here we are at the desktop it's time to validate that the 00:08:38.479 --> 00:08:47.160 settings that we put in actually took because again this is not normal 00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:49.720 Hardware so you know who knows 00:08:47.160 --> 00:08:55.880 um so well look at that okay we're turboing to 3.5 something GHz just yeah 00:08:53.519 --> 00:09:02.360 there you go normally which uh means there it is we are running at 105 MHz 00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:04.360 base clock so yes we have overclocked 00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:10.480 the CPU so the tools we're going to use to stress test it are ID to 64 and we're 00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:12.000 going to just start a stress test and 00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:16.839 assuming it doesn't crash pretty much immediately we're going to start creeping up that base clock and see if 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:21.040 we can get a little bit higher cuz I think 105 is going to be pretty easy um 00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:25.279 we're not really asking it for much so we're going to we're going to push it and see see how much further we can get 00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:30.839 it one thing I do want to know before we proceed though is what are temperatures 00:09:27.920 --> 00:09:34.200 like huh very comfortable sitting at around 55° that's without the water 00:09:32.839 --> 00:09:39.959 heating up but that won't matter when we're running on a whole room liquid cooling setup now will it so I'm going 00:09:38.160 --> 00:09:45.079 to show you guys once we see that it sort of passes for a couple seconds here 00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:49.320 how we can avoid rebooting into Windows every time in or or rebooting into the 00:09:46.959 --> 00:09:54.040 ufi BIOS every time in order to test new things so we're going to go into the TPU 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:57.600 tab of AI Suite which is not my favorite piece of software but we're just kind of 00:09:55.560 --> 00:10:02.399 using it to save some time here boop boop yeah I know AI sweet 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:08.839 you're trying real hard okay and then we can actually change base cloth on the 00:10:05.760 --> 00:10:11.240 Fly setting increment by increment then 00:10:08.839 --> 00:10:17.680 we just apply it do you want to load it yes so we can change all of this stuff 00:10:13.880 --> 00:10:19.560 on the Fly run a new stability test and 00:10:17.680 --> 00:10:23.000 keep going until uh it doesn't go anymore so it ended up pushing a lot 00:10:21.560 --> 00:10:26.959 further than I expected and I had to bring it into the office to continue 00:10:24.680 --> 00:10:33.040 testing I ran out of time cuz I kept expecting at every stage one more be 00:10:29.920 --> 00:10:34.839 clock no it passes so uh this is what we 00:10:33.040 --> 00:10:38.360 ended up with any further than this and we can't we can't push it any further 00:10:36.680 --> 00:10:45.440 it'll just lock up as soon as we try to run a stress test but here it is 00:10:41.920 --> 00:10:51.279 113 mahz base clock that gives us 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:54.120 339 GHz with 12 cores running utterly 00:10:51.279 --> 00:11:00.519 unfreaking believable so this is going to be one heck of a high performance 00:10:56.040 --> 00:11:03.440 workstation and it is 100% Rock Solid at 00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:08.360 this setting no problems whatsoever very very exciting um so stay tuned guys 00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:13.519 because this is just one of the machines for our five system multi-stem room wide 00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:18.120 liquid cooling setup that we're going to be doing soon it is the most exciting 00:11:15.880 --> 00:11:23.720 one with 64 gigs of RAM as well as that 12 core CPU but the other ones will be 00:11:20.040 --> 00:11:26.320 cool too speaking of all them cores or 00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:31.399 something the core of your
