00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.560
last time we worked on a sponsored video with dyson you guys complained that a

00:00:04.319 --> 00:00:11.040
vacuum had nothing to do with building pcs

00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:15.120
so we took all your feedback and this time around

00:00:12.559 --> 00:00:20.240
we built the dysonator the first gaming pc that also

00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:25.840
cools down the gamer it's a cooling fan it's a heater it's an

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:32.880
air purifier and it's a noob fragging monster and thanks to dyson i'm gonna

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:41.120
show you guys how we built it

00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:48.559
when we began this project the goal was to put everything inside the dyson hot

00:00:45.680 --> 00:00:53.840
plus cool purifier why well because it seemed like a really cool way to hide a

00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:53.840
pc

00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:59.680
and i think we can all agree gamers need cooling

00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:05.280
and probably an air purifier it seemed possible at first since all of

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:08.560
the big pc parts do actually fit in this

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:10.320
open area inside the unit and an extra

00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:14.880
neat thing about this idea is that the pc would sit directly in the path of the

00:01:12.880 --> 00:01:19.040
purifier's intake cooling down our hardware but once we got into the

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:23.759
finicky bits like routing cables making sure that our adapters fit and trying to

00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:27.280
avoid cooking our lattepanda alpha single board computer on the 1500 watt

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:35.360
heating element it quickly became apparent that without sacrificing major functionality like the

00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:37.600
350 degree oscillation the tilt or the

00:01:35.360 --> 00:01:42.000
hepa filter effectiveness we simply weren't going to be able to do it

00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:47.040
thankfully there's always a plan b so we kept the spirit of the idea

00:01:44.720 --> 00:01:52.479
stealthily integrating a pc into your living area and we also managed to get a

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:56.560
nice boost to performance so this new design moves the pc from inside the

00:01:54.880 --> 00:02:02.479
purifier to well underneath it and hold on wait

00:02:01.119 --> 00:02:07.200
i i know that's probably been done before but

00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:11.360
this is different because we completely 3d printed our own case for the first

00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:16.560
time so it ended up being a bit of an adventure as a starting point we pulled out the

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:21.760
desktop that fits in your palm from that video we did a while ago and got rid of

00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:24.000
its outer casing because of its mini stx

00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:29.120
form factor it could easily fit under the dyson without any adapters and with

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:33.440
excellent clearance for its cooling fans but putting square components in round

00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:38.000
enclosures still comes with its share of challenges we wanted the finished

00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:42.800
product to be as stealthy as possible so we simply extended the base so that we

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:47.280
could stay true to the design language that dyson originally used and only

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:52.720
raised the profile of the cooler by about four inches the saying measure

00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:55.280
twice cut once definitely rang true for

00:02:52.720 --> 00:03:00.400
us here except it was more like measure four times and print once for us because

00:02:58.239 --> 00:03:04.879
we 3d printed the case as a side note the remote for this thing is super handy

00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:08.879
and stays on top with magnets

00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:12.640
we wanted the case to be usable not just a one and done for the video so it was

00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:16.959
designed to have the bottom come off revealing all the components inside we

00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:20.560
settled on four of these little tiny knock to a 40 millimeter fans in a

00:03:18.720 --> 00:03:24.000
push-pull configuration to help with dissipating the heat from the computer

00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:27.760
the fan grills were designed in such a way that from most angles you wouldn't

00:03:25.760 --> 00:03:31.280
be able to see the fan blades spinning at all but they still allow more than

00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:35.280
enough airflow and make sure that the fresh air is moving directly across our

00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:38.959
heatsinks the last bit we had to figure out was our i o shield we ended up going

00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:43.360
with a custom one that still allows access to most of the i o while

00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:46.400
minimizing the footprint of a cutout when it came time to print though we ran

00:03:45.040 --> 00:03:51.200
into a bit of a problem the build plate of our ultimaker 3 just

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:54.959
isn't big enough now we could have cut up the model and printed in chunks and

00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:58.720
then reassembled them once we were done but that could have compromised the

00:03:56.959 --> 00:04:03.519
strength of the pedestal as you can see guys right now it's actually quite

00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:08.159
strong it doesn't move around at all and besides more points of failure is just

00:04:05.920 --> 00:04:11.599
generally bad so we looked around for a local company to print this for us but

00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:16.000
it would have cost between 500 and a thousand dollars to get it done

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:21.120
no bueno although it would have looked pretty cool in carbon fiber

00:04:18.239 --> 00:04:24.880
luckily i have great employees snuck that in there i like that that

00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:28.720
have a printer at home that can handle the task with nearly four days of print

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:32.800
time for these bits any mistake would have been costly and thankfully we only

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:36.080
had one and at least we ended up with this wonderful

00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:40.639
you know 20 bucks worth of filament dinner plate

00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:43.440
yeah thank you very much for that by the way if you guys like fabrication

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:47.840
projects we have a really cool one coming for a subzero CPU cooler make

00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:51.680
sure you subscribe so you don't miss it man 3d printed stuff is ugly out of the

00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:59.360
gate isn't it so it's sand fill sand fill and repeat

00:04:55.520 --> 00:04:59.360
till it's smooth as a baby bee's bottom

00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:06.400
throughout this part of the process nicholas actually used the dyson to push

00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:10.479
air while painting and priming doing so cuts down on overspray on the parts and

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:15.280
then white paint came on few coats will do us plus a clear coat to protect and

00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:19.680
then in between the coats using it as a heater to speed up the drying process

00:05:18.080 --> 00:05:24.080
handy right now just to be clear the dyson pure hot plus cool is not meant to

00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:29.199
be a shop fan these filters are designed for lighter home use but for like you

00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:32.960
know a couple hours it really worked out pretty great

00:05:30.479 --> 00:05:36.800
so now it's time to try it out isn't it i gotta give you credit

00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:41.680
it's very stealthy

00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:46.639
all right turn on my gamer cooling oh my god it's one of those silver stone

00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:50.479
you know i gave them such a hard time about this thing when they first

00:05:47.919 --> 00:05:55.199
launched i was like who needs that someone who buries their power switch

00:05:52.880 --> 00:06:00.160
inside the computer perfect all right let's power this sucker up

00:05:57.039 --> 00:06:00.160
that is hilarious

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:06.400
ah come on you'll probably notice we haven't talked

00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:10.479
a ton about the hardware we're using it's actually based on an older machine

00:06:08.400 --> 00:06:17.280
that we already had so it's only a 7th gen core i7 processor but the 7700k is

00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:22.240
still a very competent gaming chip and our gtx 1080 should be more than enough

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:27.039
for a decent living room gaming experience and all without thermals that

00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:30.639
are going to overwhelm our poor little 40 millimeter fans over there so we're

00:06:28.960 --> 00:06:34.560
actually running a blender render in the background right now and you can see

00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:38.639
that in the reduced turbo profile that this board actually comes with we have

00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:42.479
not even reached 80 degrees so i am pretty darn comfortable with those temps

00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:47.120
now let's switch over to some gaming so i'm just gonna

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:49.600
focus the airflow on myself crank it up a little bit you need that

00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:55.039
cooling one of the really cool features of this is that it can direct the airflow

00:06:52.960 --> 00:06:59.280
creating a strong breeze even really far away or if you don't like that you can

00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:04.400
put it in a backflow mode so that it'll just clean the room without blowing on

00:07:01.520 --> 00:07:10.720
you what can i do max not bad not bad at all too much for now

00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:14.080
in the summer that's fine though wait are they still going are they still

00:07:12.479 --> 00:07:20.720
alive oh oh oh oh oh there we go yeah mvp well

00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:24.240
the good news nicholas is that the computer is very stealthy

00:07:23.039 --> 00:07:28.000
until we actually start gaming on it

00:07:26.479 --> 00:07:33.520
so that's like one third of the battle another fun fact

00:07:30.880 --> 00:07:38.000
we found out why the pure hot plus cool is

00:07:35.039 --> 00:07:43.039
rather on the pricey side for what kind of looks like a fan

00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:47.680
uh it's actually got an air purification and air quality testing system built

00:07:44.960 --> 00:07:50.720
into it that is pretty fancy so check this out you just press the i

00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:54.319
button and it actually gives you this neato

00:07:52.880 --> 00:07:58.720
little informational graphic of what the air

00:07:56.720 --> 00:08:04.560
quality is like and you can look at things like pollen and vocs

00:08:02.960 --> 00:08:09.120
and our building alarm just went off i thought

00:08:06.479 --> 00:08:13.680
it was an air quality emergency it was like oh no what did we do

00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:16.160
in addition to that it can also heat the air that's coming through it i mean that

00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:20.319
ended up being one of the problems we ran into

00:08:18.479 --> 00:08:23.080
because we couldn't put a pc right next to a heating element

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:28.560
but hey if you're not trying to build a

00:08:25.599 --> 00:08:33.680
computer in it that's great it also has a companion app and alexa

00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:38.000
integration so you can well i think that's fairly

00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:43.279
self-explanatory use alexa to adjust your purifier look at this i'm the mvp

00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:48.560
four times sucker so there you have it neither the pc nor the fan are as small

00:08:46.160 --> 00:08:51.760
as they were on their own but hey at least the computer is stealthier and

00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:55.120
that's the whole point of the build to have our computer blend in with its

00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:59.680
surroundings more than it would if it was you know your classic

00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:04.000
black or beige box would we recommend doing it this way

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:08.160
well i mean i guess if you or your significant other has a strict aesthetic

00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:12.800
that you want to stick to but you still want a game that might not be a terrible

00:09:10.880 --> 00:09:16.320
idea as long as you happen to have a dyson pure hot plus cool or you're

00:09:15.040 --> 00:09:20.640
planning to get one which you will of course be able to do at the link in the

00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:24.399
video description and we're gonna have the print files for uh the base here

00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:28.720
down there as well so thanks for watching guys and thanks again to dyson

00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:33.200
for sponsoring this build we had a lot of fun with this one

00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:36.800
looking at this like fan design i'm like you reinvented fans
