Threadripper Gets the Custom Treatment, Pimp my 1950X

2018-04-29
welcome back to harbor unboxed today we have another amazing modern system from alex and this time is building in the cooler master cosmos 2 and this is a thread rip in 1950 ex build anyway enough for me I'll hand it over to Alex to tell you more about the specs design and all that good stuff and of course he will show you the entire build process as well and all the modifications that he made so grab yourself a nice beverage sit back relax because this is gonna be good hey what's going on guys Alex here and it's great to be back with another case modded system it's a pretty big one this time in the Coolermaster cosmos 2 25th anniversary edition case so I'll just quickly go over what I did to the case and what was my main goal to achieve with this case Mon and then I'll let you guys enjoy d time-lapse video now obviously the cosmos 2 has been around for quite a while and I think that Coolermaster did a very good job with the 25th anniversary edition however it could have definitely used a bit more work in order to bring it up to today's standards in terms of the hardware and water-cooling support inside the case I mean if it's such a large case out of the box the money supports 810 360 millimetre radiator in the top and that's pretty much it so this is my version of what I think the 25th anniversary edition cosmos 2 should be now I didn't want to do a lot of changes to the outside of the cases I wanted to preserve the look that Coolermaster had intended for it so the main things I drew on the outside was to just simply paint the front and top panel mesh grilles purple to go at one of color masters main colors and then I was added the 25th anniversary logo to the front so if I guess all of my time on the inside of the case on what I could do to improve it such as such a large case I had enough room to go for a jewel water cooling loop even though it's not necessary it's just something I wanted to do and I think it looks cool so there's a 360 millimeter radiator in the top which cools the CPU and I also managed to fit a 480 millimeter radiator in the front with some slight modifications mainly to the mid plate in order to fit the radiator on the inside and then also had to slightly shift the harddrive cages in the bottom so the 480 millimeter radiator cools the Vegas 64 graphics card by itself which column it is pretty overkill but then again a lot of things about case modded systems is pretty overkill anyways other things I did these also take out all of the other harddrive cages that were at the front panel of the case along with the 5 and a quarter pays as well and I chose to stick just with the four high drive cages in the bottom I also did shave the top off of the hard drive cages at the bottom here and this is mainly so you can actually see the hard drives when they're in there and then it's also allowed enough room for my water cooling pass-through fittings to fit through this bottom section of the case and you'll see them go just over the hard drive and also a little bit over the power supply as well I've also done a cover for this section of the case next to the motherboard where the two alpha cool pump and reservoir combos are mounted and also this nice mirrored piece of acrylic that covers the mid section and then I drilled all of the water cooling pass-through holes into that for a super clean water cooling system overall the water clean components were provided by alpha cool and you'll see that I've used their pre bent chrome-plated brass tubes which look pretty awesome in this build the UMaine idea was to have a really nice and clean system on the inside of the case something that's obviously been modded but still kind of look stock as if the case was designed this way so I think I managed to achieve this look but let us know in the comments below what you guys think now for the rest of the specs we have the asus rog zenith extreme motherboard this houses the AMD risin thread ripper 1950 x cpu with 32 gigs of zelich shield RGB 32 hundred megahertz ddr4 memory then there's the vega 64 graphics card which i've already mentioned I did try to get my hands on a second card to go with crossfire Vega 64's but obviously with the shortage is going on at the moment it was a bit hard to to get my hands on on another card in time to finish this build so I chose to go just with the one card and then I've mounted vertically and I did that using one of the cooler master GPU vertical mounting kits which they offer and then I've also done some slight modifications to this as well in terms of storage there's actually quite an insane amount of storage in this system aside from the four hard drives at the bottom there's also a 500 gig samsung 960 Evo M dough to drive on the motherboard there are also two 480 gigabyte APIs or armored SSDs which I've managed to the top section will discover that I've created just behind the reservoirs here and also with the hard drives in the bottom there are two fire CUDA 2 terabyte SS HDS and then also true Seagate Barracuda 6 terabyte hard drives as well so with this you get the sort of faster sshd storage with the fire cuda and then also very large expanded storage with the 2 6 terabyte barracudas and all this is powered by the cooler master master what maker 12 Jawad power supply intensive the fans i'm i've used cooler master master fan pro RGB fans throughout there are seven of them in total which are 120 Moe on the two radiators and then also a 140 ml at the back and all these are the air pressure version of the fan in terms of the custom cables and the lighting that you will see throughout the case this has all been provided by cable mod that's pretty much it for me guys I'm gonna stop talking right here I'll let you guys enjoyed the time-lapse video I hope you enjoyed the system as well and I'll see you in the next one Cheers you
