Correction... THIS is the dumbest thing I've ever done

what's up guys Jason $0.02 here and if you didn't see our last video I highly recommend you go and check that out before watching this one and that's where we took a 16 dollar box fan and a bunch of 480 rads from ek water blocks and made an ambient temperature cooling monster we thought you know we need to upgrade it a little bit so this is what we've done so far we've added a little bit of patriotism and a pinwheel is a flow indicator right if you guys have any questions about whether or not the air is actually flowing there you go but we got the thinking how can we get this sub ambient and we noticed whenever the AC vent up there kicked on and blew down on to the radiator it would start to cool down a little bit more so we thought well 5500 BTUs might do the trick with its adjustable pmw 3367 16,000 dpi optical sensor for RGB zones 9 customizable buttons and offering both wired and wireless operation are only a few reasons why the corsair dark court RGB should be on your shortlist for your next mouse purchase check out its full list of features by clicking the link in the description below alright so hopefully I have to assemble too much remote control now my first concern was like whoa wait a minute we don't have a way to separate the intake air from the exhaust air on this cuz typically this is designed to go into a window it's got this little thing and it's designed to separate to air coming in versus the air being conditioned but the space in here is big enough where I think if we just run this under the table or something it's not gonna be interfering with itself but we'll still get the effect we're looking for I'm a condom very effective ladies thank you for your purchase at this Hisense product we have made everybody one thing to point out it's 21.9 see right now without the fan running on the fluid temp I did turn the air conditioner down in here to 68 today because it supposed to be a warm day so so I'm literally just gonna be kind of so just like the way I made my kids I'm just gonna so we finally got the it it's reversed threw at us for xxx the wrong way but if I bother to actually RTFM I legit think though that just winning at it it's gonna be plenty you know I mean okay so we're gonna start heaven benchmark here and some people were concerned that heaven is a put enough heat into the graphics card it got to the same temperature as what superposition did and we are running all this Max 8x msaa extreme tessellation ultra quality so I think there's plenty of heat on that also too I wanted to talk about there were some comments concerns about whether or not the d5 pump was enough to push all of this believe it or not there's not that much resistance in this loop radiators especially ones this big like 120 and 140 is obviously the leader or not don't put a lot of restriction or resistance in the flow because if you add up the diameter of all the tubes number half of these tubes are going one direction and the other half is going the other direction and then given the size of the end tanks the tubes overall surface area is about the same as the internal surface area of a 3/8 inch tube so these are just like as if we had tubes running so there's actually not that much restriction it's the water blocks and the super thin passages they have to go through that put restriction into the loop so the D 5 is plenty for this in fact the point of bubble moves it flies through this loop so the flow rate and the pump is not being exceeded I just wanted to talk about that so this is what we're set to in the studio 69 Fahrenheit which works out to and we'll show trigger fills 20 point five five six degrees Celsius so that is our ambient mark that's where we need the fluid to be be low to see if this is going to work and drop our ambient temps but as you can see the fluid is again at ambient temperature and we proved that in the last video that's why I've seen the first video was important we have built a big enough radiator system here with a big enough amount of fluid to where the we can keep the system itself at ambient temperature but as you can see our GPU is about three C or three and a half C above ambient this is about to see less than it was when we had it set to 71 so it also proves another thing that people like too often you know kind of challenge is the coolant temperature and the components temperature and your ambient temperature are one-to-one so if we rise one C in this in the room we will go up one see with our components if we go up 10 C it'll go up 10 C so that's why with water cooling if you're gaming in a closed room and it gets hotter you'll notice your components getting hotter so proper ventilation stuff is obviously important but this has been running now I had a stopwatch going it has been going that long I mean it does not heat up that's the thing it'll be running 10 minutes and 37 seconds so what we're gonna do right now is we are gonna point the AC at this and see what happens and how long it takes it to do it 61 Fahrenheit is the lowest it seems we can get it to go all right so we're just gonna let this go and then we'll see what happens all right so we ran it for seven and a half minutes before we decided we hit equilibrium and went down as low as sixteen point eight and they came back up to seventeen point one seventeen point O we did get the GPU to drop down to 21 C though but we're still technically at ambience twenty point five is ambient so we can't see our fractions there I do feel an awful lot of air coming off to the side over here though where it's not being forced through the radiator so I'm going to try two things one this exhaust I'm concerned about the warmth coming out of here which is pretty warm it's I mean it's a heat exchanger we expect pulling the heat out of the air and this is the worm we're concerned that this is counter balancing the effect we're looking for here where we might be raising the temperature in this area too much that's why this gets rounded outside through a window or a hole in the wall I'm going to take this and I'm going to make a ramp and I'm gonna point this up so it goes up there into the ceiling way up high out of the way I also want to try ducting off the air on the side of the radiator to see if I can't keep it from splashing off the side very similar to how I did my oil cooler in my 370z if air hits that and it can't go through because of resistance and it's just going to splash off the side so I feel like a lot of the cold air is being bypassed and not making it through the systems so yeah that's gonna work now that's just getting harder to move around recycling maybe reduce reuse recycle so water temp is fourteen point nine degrees because I have ducted the out of it I'll probably use twenty dollars in gaff tape in this one project alone I'm actually surprised I thought the fan would have had enough pressure to pull the air through like like you saw with the vape how it just kind of forced it but no this this fan is actually pushing enough air towards it to where it was splashing off which is why now we are seeing all of this improvement now by just reducing the amount of air that can escape around the unit so it's only been about one minute since I closed off the heat leaks right here and look 18 C already on that water temp 1406 will let this go for a little while we'll see where we balance out and then we will call this probably the most ridiculous Frankenstein thing I've ever done but if we were to flip this monitor around the other way and sit right in front of that fan not only are you cooling the crap out of your PC you are cooling the crap out of yourself as well so kind of like how Linus's recent video where he showed how much a computer can heat a room I guess we're kind of showing how cool your room can be while gaming if you have a stupid amount of money with terrible ROI throw it so on this side of things obviously you can see the airflow I feel like I just walked into one of those walk-in refrigerators it is so cold in here this side of the room is like really colder it's like as cold as we were doing the ln2 overclocking with kington so we just found something right now where when the compressor kicks on if we had the fan on the box fan running a hundred percent we feel like the air isn't spinning enough time in the radiators to chill it as much as it can so we just put the fan on low with the compressor on and we came down to thirteen point six I've seen this go as low as thirteen point two when playing around right now but we actually had this drop now to seventeen see momentarily and come back up so I'm gonna turn the fan off entirely but the first time I did this by turning the fan off it really chilled the radiators but what also happens love that cold air splashed back at the intake side of the cooler which then triggers the compressor to turn off because it reached its lowest temperature where it will want to run the moment the compressor kick clicked off the temperatures rose really quickly here back to ambient like 220c in a matter of a minute but look I just turned the fan off and now we're dropping down thirteen three our GPU is at 17 c13 two and we probably won't see this hit 16c unless we can get this down into the 12s I don't think that's gonna happen because the compressor isn't gonna run long enough so again and there's thirteen one we might be able to do it if we can just time this right we might be able to actually hit sixteen see on the on the GPU so it's kind of funny when we had the fan running a hundred percent with the compressor on Oh compressor just turned off now watch what's gonna happen to this okay it's twelve nine of course we didn't hit 16 C but we did hit a steady seventeen do you see that it stayed at 17 so if there's thirty no 31:13 two 13 3 13 4 and now here's the thing at 13 6 see it's starting to skip if I turn the fan on 100% it will go even faster up to ambient because we're running ambient air through something that's now below ambient temperature so we're actually running warm air through it when it comes to the relative temperature of these parts so now that the fan is at 100% watch this 14 7 14 8 see how it's speeding up now simply because the relative temperature right the metal was chilled down into the 50s the air blowing through there right now is almost 70 degrees so we are talking nearly 20 degrees of Fahrenheit difference and now we're at 15 to 15 3 15 4 and this will go all the way up to about 20 C which is envĂ­a like we've already determined what was the point of this video nothing absolutely nothing I mean we want to see if we can get sub ambient on the GPU we achieved that you can see now we're back above ambient because our coolant is no longer going to be below ambient so we've always seen about a three to four degrees difference between the coolant temperature and the component temp so a little bit of science behind this an extremely crude unscientific way but this was more like a what happens if typeof video so if you guys have any suggestions of what happens if you did they sound ridiculous put them in the comments below I mean after all we did this right we're willing to do this we're willing to really sell ourselves to do anything for the sake of views so that's it guys subscribe if you're new around here like this video if you enjoyed it we hope to see your suggestions so there is an oppressor just tick back on whatever we're gonna let this go guys thanks for watching we'll see you in the next one it only cost 500 bucks
