Ice Cooling Loop: RIP JayzTwoCents (2080 Ti SLI World Record)

2018-10-04
when Jay responded to our overclocking by posting multiple of his own scores in succession he complained about not having enough time for this I told you I got to put this away I don't have time I don't time to screw around with this well Jay if you don't have enough time for this you can call me mother fucking father time because I'll make time all day to beat your scores and that my friends is what we just did so Jay I would like to welcome you to our current high standing that time of filming so right now what I'm looking at if it's not different on what's on the screen is a fifteen thousand a twenty five graphics score and a twelve thousand four hundred and thirty three points he views score which beats Jay by several hundred points before that this video is brought to you by Power colors rx 588 gigabyte card which is marked down to $200 with rebate starting September 29th on new egg and that is for the 8 gigabyte model if you're looking for a mid-range video card for gaming on high settings consider power colors 8 gigabyte rx 580 that we linked below the card also comes with three free games including Assassin's Creed Odyssey star control and Strange Brigade while supplies last learn more at the link below Jay the one with the most golden of all the golden samples Jay is the favorite apparently among manufacturers or it just gets very lucky and has an insane CPU that doesn't even need to be deleted ours is deleted not only is it deleted but we put it in 50 pounds of ice you salty Jay yes salty yet because that lowers the freezing point of my bucket of ice that's what we're working with right now we have the CPU radiator dunked and ice we have excuse me well there's a five hundred sixty millimeter GPU radiator and there take my word for it there's a water a pond pump in there that's what that is and we have that hooked up to fairly condensation proof a blue shop towel we'll see how long that holds you might lose a part but it's been good so far and I have to thank Ritchie and build Zoid for being patient with me while I walked through this whole process so Jay your turn find the time for it if you can I don't know I did I didn't seem that problem finding time for it so our biggest limitation now will soon become power and that's something we can just run in extension cables for or something I don't know but for the score we have of presently fifteen thousand to forty two you know ji I think you can do it I believe in you but seriously J has done some really crazy good overclocking on the GPU side I had a few tricks up my sleeve for this one we might reveal in this video I don't know we film like we filmed how many gigabytes we filmed two hundred fifty gigabytes of all of this crap for the last three days so there's the build there's the ice bucket there's the overclocking so I have no idea how we're gonna split the videos but I want the score to go up sooner because I I just I I want J to see it I want it to keep him up at night like this kept me up at night when I saw his scores go up so J thank you very much for participating I'm sorry to say that it's over but it was fun while it lasted and I'll see you in California assuming well I guess he did threaten to fly here and cut my hair in my sleep so so if I actually lose I'm gonna fly to North Carolina I'm gonna break in and I'm going to take clippers to him while he sleeps and then that's not creepy at all but it's totally worth it to win this battle whatever maybe I'll see you here brain scissors strong ones okay so I don't know how we're gonna cut this but we'll have other videos talking about the build process I'm gonna try and beat the score myself we're going to do a live stream before I tear all this down assuming nothing dies tonight we're gonna do a live stream showing it off one final time before I tear it down we're gonna put the time for that on the screen now so if you tabs away check back and look at the screen that's gonna have the date and the time for the live stream before we tear this beast down and it will be no more so J if you post a better score I'm going to assume it's only because I gave you all of the ideas that you used it to beat our score because your hardware is by and large at superior in every single way so all you have to do is muster up the skill I guess to do the rest of it I mean we did everything anyway if you don't know if EJ is James to senses Channel we've had a lot of fun working with Jay on this and a friendly competition on overclocking their Bauer jumped in jerk head and so the fun will soon be over for all of us but he can check him out on YouTube as well anyway I will transition to some other part of the video or something so for the bench hardware this is kind of a crazy configuration first of all big shout outs Rubbermaid who didn't sponsor us and I have no idea what works for their 7 year 8 quart cooler I bought this at the local hardware store we filled it with a lot of ice I'm sure the gas station doesn't know why we kept going back and buy a nice either but we've got a 360 Thermaltake rat in here with this was really not meant to be in here originally and then we have a 560 rat down there ideally this would be horizontal not what it is here it's gonna get air stuck in it and it's it's got issues where the water can't really flow through it we have a pond pump in there so that's that part of the build the motherboard is an e bjx 299 dark which is the best overclocking board I've worked with so X 299 dark for our study 980 XE CPU yes very funny you know the meme so that's that's our set up there G skull try and Z memory that I've overclocked pretty heavily tighten the timings really heavily so that's doing well the VR is kept cool by built-in fans we have a an ek furious fan here ek furious fan there they're like 2500 rpm so that's cooling the V RMS on the vram for the cards which I've completely surgically taken apart and put back together again so we have blue shop towel everywhere I shorted the shunts on the cards with liquid metal I was gonna solder some three million shots on there and if J responds maybe that's what I'll do but next but I had to do something that I could do without taking everything apart and that was put liquid metal on I couldn't get a soldering iron in there so we have hard mods as an option next but anyway that's the video cards are there we have an AC swan we have an EVGA XE ultra on a riser card asus rog Strix which is a beast of an overclocker we have to get rid of the efi card this is cooling all those we have this as exhaust blowing all the hot air that way which provides some pressure on the right half the VRMs of this and then a Knox with 3000 rpm industrial fan in the back forcing air through just brute force through all of the shop towel and everything cooling the bottom VRMs and B Ram and those by the way we're running about 40 degrees Celsius maybe and most recently about 35 and that's because everything around it is freaking freezing so that's that's the set up for the most part we have EK supremacy blocks on the GPUs we didn't do blocks on the water on the vrm because it's just totally irrelevant can pull it with air and I other than that we have an ax 1600 I Corsair power supply that's done very well with all of this and then I I think that's it I think that's everything I think that pretty much covers it you guys supremacy block on the CPU a lot of shop towel the whole goal of this is to stop air from hitting metal things because that's when or anything honestly because that's when condensation will form including the tubes which are the EK zmt tubing so there's zero maintenance to in these were specifically chosen the black tubes which are mostly covered up now but there's one down there these were specifically chosen so that we could help insulate them keep the cold in and and reduce condensation concerns then we have a thermocouple k-type hooked up with one in the tank and one in the loop for the GPUs for a point nine degrees in the tank and we're at four point on the loop Celsius of course so that's our test bench okay so for part of the settings we're using the hot keys and I'm going to give away pretty much all the secrets here so J will now beat us by using the secrets and because he has better hardware so that's all he needs to do is use the tricks but anyway this is what we're doing I am setting the clocks on the memory and the core based on the current load of times by which I've checked with a current clamp meticulously through the whole benchmarking process so I know when it goes up and down in current requirements and I can adjust the clocks to counter that based on the workload so all we're doing is we're just going to change the clocks for each test like right now I'm dropping to an offset of 1180 on the memory down from 12:40 so it's on 1240 offset memory for the first task now we're down to 1180 and we were on 170 offset core for the first test and now we're at an offset of I think 165 and then this test eventually we're going to hit a spot where the current again changes the current requirements so once we get there I'm going to increase the frequency by an extra 10 megahertz to give me some extra score while we can get it in this part of the bench so it's waiting for that and then we also have a part later where we're gonna have to drop the memory frequency and the core frequency to try and an encounter artifact and that'll happen on the memory so the CPU tasks I'm dropping everything on the GPU jeebies done it's not really gonna impact the results of this test it's entirely CPU and so we're dropping the GPS so we don't have to worry about supporting that overclock anymore it is no longer a concern now we're just focusing on supporting the CPU overclock and I just changed the match ratio so it's going to crash but before when we had 34 mesh I was stable now I was pushing 35 I don't think I'm gonna get it but I wanted to give it a shot but that gives us a good opportunity to get back into BIOS and see our other settings so on the EVGA BIOS and what I've got right now going on previously I could not get over 4.8 gigahertz at all like we had the first four cores at 49 everything I was 48 so that's why J was well I don't know how his CPU score was lower originally but that his his CPU clocks of 5.0 25.1 were supporting a higher graphics score in a significant way because the Seaview is able to better keep up with it so now we're at 51 for the first two cores that pushes so for rendering tasks GPU bound things where you have draw calls this first two core is at a higher frequency will help keep up with the GPU whereas the rest are at 5.0 so we're at 5 gigahertz for those the stable mesh ratio was 34 not 35 although I did just try it and then everything has been 1.9 5v core 1.45 the mash 1.38 VCC i/o was 1.33 before I increased the mesh and then essai is one point one eight five I was running lower before 500 on core offset this is where we've done a lot of tweaking so I spent a whole day on this this is a g.skill try dingy black 36 hundred megahertz kit they're setting a better one into but we pushed this one to 4000 megahertz and it's on 1.85 dim v10 I've got 15 15 15 28 I kind of was stable on 26 but dropped it for more stability on 28 five five for the RR DS we're at 38 for your foie at e-file were at one for command rate and then all these so T RFC we're at TW our is 22 RFC is the refresh cycle for the memory so this you want this number to be low this is how quickly it refreshes the memory to to grab whatever it needs to get next and so we lowered that quite a bit from stock refresh interval our efi this you want high because you want the memory to retain its data for absolutely as long as possible without ever refreshing it in benchmarking so we've maxed that out we have C ke 6 we've dropped w w DD or w RW d r2 7r w DD to 7 r WS r to 7 and i'm trying to get these lower but that's kind of where they were stable on this kid in memory we've turned off some of the features of the CPU I'm not going to go through all those right now and that gets us to where we are at I just set it to 5.1 gigahertz as well so we're gonna give that a shot before closing out everything but so that's it that's that score I got for now back to you J I guess I'd really rather you don't get up from this one though because I have things to do but I'll always make time for you Jay it's you got me right here right here in the heart I think is what humans call it when you talked about your time constraints and I feel for you but I am eternal so I'll come back whenever your respond they go out for watching subscribe for more go to patreon.com/scishow and access to help us out directly go to store my cameras access dot net to pick up one of our mod mats or any of our other products like our shirts if you like these videos I want to support them because holy crap this took a lot of time as Jay said and it's very expensive to produce this kind of content so help us out if you feel like you can otherwise check back for the livestream that's the best way to help us if you don't want to spend money and we'll post again that date and time summer in the video thank you for watching I'll see you all next
