WEBVTT

00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:06.120
all right so on Friday while we were shooting Channel Super Fun um there was

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.360
a bit of a disaster and all the computers needed to be Rec combobulated

00:00:09.559 --> 00:00:17.000
on their own Loops instead of flushing so we're going to do some diagnosis

00:00:14.559 --> 00:00:20.920
here this is the whole room water cooling

00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:26.279
project detec this is

00:00:23.080 --> 00:00:29.320
crazy um I think one thing that we need

00:00:26.279 --> 00:00:31.560
to do is get that second pump in here

00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:34.680
because I'm having trouble bleeding all the

00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:43.239
systems so here's our big boy second

00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:46.239
pump and uh I have some tubing scraps so

00:00:43.239 --> 00:00:50.199
we're just going to hook this baby

00:00:46.239 --> 00:00:52.600
up um okay where's my thing we're going

00:00:50.199 --> 00:00:56.719
from this Outlet to this Inlet to the rest of the room I got to

00:00:55.000 --> 00:01:01.920
go I got to go hook up a system before we start this though otherwise it's just

00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:01.920
going to go no

00:01:03.879 --> 00:01:11.720
so we're going to put you back on the whole room Loop then we're going to go

00:01:08.720 --> 00:01:14.000
turn on the pumps for the whole room

00:01:11.720 --> 00:01:18.600
Loop wow your system runs toasty when it's just got to dual rad too many

00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:22.200
bubbles though so first the first pump because we don't want either of them to

00:01:19.960 --> 00:01:22.200
run

00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:31.360
dry boom then the second pump

00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:35.240
all right let's see if we're getting better flow rates with all that extra

00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:37.399
pressure actually that does look quite a bit

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:48.079
better ah I'm watering the bathtub yeah

00:01:46.320 --> 00:01:52.759
not bad pressure o looks like we're actually

00:01:50.520 --> 00:01:55.560
getting more Gunk cut of your system that's

00:01:54.040 --> 00:02:01.640
interesting so let's go have a look maybe it's uh

00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:08.000
that not I did not expect that we already flushed the systems how are

00:02:04.399 --> 00:02:11.040
temps they're okay not great well right

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.200
now your system has a 5x quad

00:02:11.040 --> 00:02:15.760
radiator just for itself so it makes

00:02:14.200 --> 00:02:22.000
sense that it's doing all right that's weird turning off your pump

00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:25.239
made absolutely zero

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:28.000
difference to the sound in this computer

00:02:25.239 --> 00:02:34.599
what is making so much noise wait what did I just un

00:02:31.160 --> 00:02:36.360
plug oh wasn't your pump what was it I

00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:42.080
don't know let's just not worry too much about that okay oh no there it goes dead

00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:49.120
silent now okay so this one's

00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:49.120
purged hold on a second

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:53.000
though oh that's a

00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:03.519
problem bad bad bad

00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:07.680
oh we ran dry absolutely terrible worst thing

00:03:05.640 --> 00:03:12.799
ever oh boy that was not not what we were trying

00:03:11.720 --> 00:03:18.280
to do

00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:21.280
okay that might explain why it was so

00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:23.159
quiet now aside from needing to replace

00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:27.599
the pump I also need to replace the power supply for the fans on the roof

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:31.439
because we were so close to the 2 amp limit of the power supply we were using

00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:36.760
originally that the fans just don't start up unless I start half of them and

00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:38.280
even then sometimes not but first see

00:03:36.760 --> 00:03:43.200
the these marks right at the tip of my finger those are growth how about the

00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:48.560
down here oh those might be growth too I didn't see those probably bubbles though

00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:52.519
uh that means that block performance is definitely affected by the growth in our

00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:57.360
Loop even on the furthest system from the pumps but since we haven't seen

00:03:55.079 --> 00:04:02.560
block performance affected negatively yet um what I'm hoping is we can at

00:03:59.519 --> 00:04:05.400
least run it until we move and uh once

00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:10.079
we've added some some kind of a biocal agent like iodine to the loop um we

00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:14.599
should hopefully kill that stuff and inhibit the rest of its growth so do we

00:04:12.799 --> 00:04:17.959
have to clean those blocks the blocks will need to be disassembled for

00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:22.880
cleaning what about the RADS do they have to be replaced um right now it

00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:29.160
looks like that would be our best bet yes or we could just irresponsibly not

00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:32.039
do it and uh put in a biocal agent put

00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:37.240
an inline filter in and just kind of go yep good enough and not clean anything

00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:41.160
that is another option everything's fine out here I wonder if the fans are still

00:04:41.400 --> 00:04:48.120
running cannot tell from here but what I

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:50.320
can tell from here is that I have the uh

00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:54.440
I have the soldering gear that I need to make my new power supply so I guess why

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:54.440
don't we do

00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:04.759
that so I have never used this soldering kit

00:05:00.440 --> 00:05:04.759
before this is a new one

00:05:05.320 --> 00:05:11.320
oh terrible terrible

00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:17.840
news I forgot my wire strippers I guess I'll have to use my

00:05:13.280 --> 00:05:20.800
teeth or a knife probably teeth it's a

00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:27.080
nice Smartwatch you have there oh thank you uh it was recommended by uh guy that

00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:32.080
I know he sounds like a dick I think this is supposed to go in

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:37.520
here here but I'm going to go see if I have wire

00:05:34.440 --> 00:05:40.639
strippers I definitely don't have flux

00:05:37.520 --> 00:05:42.840
though I'm here I found one in the uh in

00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:46.919
the closet it's from one of the power supplies for one of these systems so

00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:54.000
it's all sort of part of the same inventory for this project

00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:56.479
okay so that's on wait a minute I not

00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:02.240
only have no flux I I have no solder I I do have to go to Home Depot D so my

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:07.479
computer just started making you know a bit of an awful noise uh it sounded like

00:06:05.080 --> 00:06:11.880
the screams of a thousand dying babies and here it comes

00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:16.880
again I don't know you don't know what dying babies sound like especially not a

00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:28.039
thousand we need to get everyone's but

00:06:23.880 --> 00:06:29.800
bural system off the whole room Loop you

00:06:28.039 --> 00:06:37.000
just put mine on the loop and now you're putting it off well it's a diagnostic

00:06:33.479 --> 00:06:38.840
process why not M again because we want

00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:42.639
all the pressure going to your Loop to force bubbles out of it cuz you're uh

00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:46.639
you're at the very end so you're you kind of got the Loop

00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:54.960
spot all of this seems like an excellent

00:06:55.360 --> 00:07:00.800
idea I'm trying to loosen bubbles I'm

00:06:58.479 --> 00:07:04.879
not going to tip it planting you probably will okay I'm going to tip it

00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:09.520
if I get hit in the head with a hard drive I'll be upset not as upset as the

00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:14.000
hard drive but okay I'll put it on the ground you shouldn't drop hard drives

00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:17.520
like that said the guy who tipped the system and dropped the hard drive before

00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:23.000
okay well the bad news is that two pumps is still not enough to bleed all the

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:27.240
systems at once but is definitely enough to properly bleed one system at once

00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:33.960
when before with only one pump it was like barely enough enough

00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:40.039
cool okay so I've got everything I need here for soldering I've got my soldering

00:07:36.919 --> 00:07:43.080
station I've got my soldering iron I've

00:07:40.039 --> 00:07:46.840
got my sponge I've got my solder I've

00:07:43.080 --> 00:07:48.520
got my flux pen um cuz I couldn't find

00:07:46.840 --> 00:07:54.120
my other thing of flux so I'll just use a pen whatever okay right and I have my

00:07:51.840 --> 00:07:58.479
sacrificial Molex connector that I'll be using to put onto the end of this and

00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:02.840
then some electrical tape to go ahead and seal the whole thing up oh and turns

00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:08.400
out I do have wire strippers here at the office so I I guess let's get started so

00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:12.080
first thing we'll need to do is cut this connector

00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:19.440
off and Boop you're done so let's find

00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:19.440
out if this

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:32.200
works I don't have much hope actually it'll be fine okay

00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:35.200
and bippity B 14 volts all

00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:35.200
right

00:08:35.719 --> 00:08:41.800
12 okay I you worried that the rain's

00:08:38.800 --> 00:08:41.800
going to get to that

00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:50.560
thing there's no explanation quick go before he realizes

00:08:49.680 --> 00:08:57.680
that I'm back okay up we

00:08:53.160 --> 00:09:00.680
go oh it's okay that seems

00:08:57.680 --> 00:09:02.200
good oh it's raining right now

00:09:00.680 --> 00:09:09.560
actually okay uh you may have to go up there now

00:09:05.560 --> 00:09:15.560
I kind of have to pee Oh nobody's

00:09:09.560 --> 00:09:17.200
watching um no hold on oh oh

00:09:15.560 --> 00:09:24.279
what okay we have one of these powered

00:09:20.839 --> 00:09:24.279
over over

00:09:24.560 --> 00:09:31.279
SATA oh in fact there are three leads

00:09:29.880 --> 00:09:38.800
for the three Splitters which means we need to split

00:09:34.680 --> 00:09:41.880
this to two Mox and then split it again

00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:44.480
to oh I could have just see I could have

00:09:41.880 --> 00:09:48.920
just soldered it to that entire harness but instead I just left one connector I

00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:54.560
thought that was all we needed wait you're leaving that there

00:09:51.959 --> 00:09:59.959
seems safe oh okay I guess I could take it out of the

00:09:55.959 --> 00:09:59.959
r there

00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:06.240
what are you looking for nothing I hate

00:10:06.680 --> 00:10:12.519
you do we have any Molex y

00:10:10.959 --> 00:10:16.360
Splitters probably yeah that's what I

00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:23.720
thought why you no

00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:31.320
reason cuz I soldered the wrong connector to the end of shut up

00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:42.200
so the proper solution would have definitely been to resolder this especially cuz I did such a poor job of

00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:49.560
soldering it in the first place but this is what we'll be

00:10:44.959 --> 00:10:51.120
doing Molex to SATA to quad

00:10:49.560 --> 00:10:56.920
SATA okay so we wire these

00:10:53.959 --> 00:11:00.920
up Bippity bity Boop

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.839
no fans are

00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:17.519
spinning it's all good um hm let's try

00:11:14.560 --> 00:11:21.639
one oh there's s so we have

00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:30.800
oh we only did up one of the grounds and

00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:33.560
it's the wrong one back down we

00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:40.880
go oh I can't even

00:11:38.680 --> 00:11:44.720
a yeah I'll meet you back at the soldering

00:11:42.040 --> 00:11:50.440
iron if you could grab a Seda harness from the closet in front of burl or

00:11:47.560 --> 00:11:55.320
behind him or whatever they're in a bag on the shelf right inside the door all

00:11:52.880 --> 00:11:59.800
right should just pretend none of that ever

00:11:57.160 --> 00:12:04.920
happened got it on the first try yeah

00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:11.639
right now because we have SATA connectors on the uh fan power Splitters

00:12:07.760 --> 00:12:13.720
up there we'll be using a SATA modular

00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:19.399
power supply harness as our sacrificial lamb today and we will be attaching

00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:24.480
pretty much the entirety of it giving us a total of four connectors cuz if we had

00:12:21.880 --> 00:12:28.920
just done one connector of completely the wrong type that would have been

00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:34.160
silly if you have any tips for soldering don't be afraid to let us know in the

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:34.160
comments no

00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:44.839
trolling just kidding don't do that that's for 9 volts not soldering

00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:58.560
irons don't touch that dial L Tech tips we'll be right back save on select Intel

now to learn more ah it's

00:13:07.199 --> 00:13:13.040
hot which makes sense this could almost be its own

00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:17.399
entire episode The Comedy of Errors that is

00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:26.480
line is trying to create this adapter let's put that is a long

00:13:22.680 --> 00:13:29.480
wire it's about one line is height in

00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:29.480
height

00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:36.600
Boop a I still haven't gone PE it

00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:36.600
definitely doesn't go

00:13:41.199 --> 00:13:48.959
away okay take that

00:13:48.959 --> 00:13:55.320
suckers nope

00:13:55.399 --> 00:14:01.720
nope just come back out

00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:05.639
what did I have this clip to must have been

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:12.120
tubing there we go okay that's pretty much it all fans

00:14:09.199 --> 00:14:19.800
except one spinning why is there one not spinning what is going on here what is

00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:23.600
this what is this what are

00:14:19.800 --> 00:14:25.440
okay next time on West Coast hle room

00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:30.360
okay so I ordered a couple of filters and hopefully these

00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:42.419
will filter what whatever's going on in our system oh my God it's moving
