okay so it's been a while since we've done any sort of crazy builds and we're gonna start off by testing some hardware that we've had for a while that we have not actually used yet that being specifically the Intel W 31 75 X 24 Core 48 thread processor which Steve used to capture some records by doing chilled water and overclocking coupled with the ROG Dominus extreme motherboard we're talking about a $3,000 CPU and like a $1,700 ish motherboard I don't know what the current price of this thing is yeah this it this one's a bit extreme like in every sense of the word you know what guys I got new merch it's available now Cod me calm /jc sense we got zip up hoodies we got tri-blend we got a new logo I digress since 2012 but the wrist logo you guys been asking for that anyway well guys little bit uh well kinda stuff zip up hoodies have beanies polos don't take my word for it cuz obviously I can't do this edie so just look in the description below and you guys will find the link Thanks so fortunately alpha cool sent us this massive care package of radiators and blocks and things and one of the reasons why we hadn't done anything with it yet is because we were really lacking cooling for it so as you can see they sent us over here the xpx pro 1u and the ridge y21 you is because technically this processor is actually based off of its xeon counterpart which is a $10,000 cpu the very same one Linus broke or dropped and broke and ruined some memory channels on it so it doesn't use conventional mounting mechanism in fact the mounting mechanism found on this particular socket doesn't even have a retention system it's actually held in place by the cooling solution so as you can see you know we need to actually put down some protection on this table first all right so this obviously isn't the gamers Nexus mod mat this is the Alpha cool one but because I have to put the motherboard directly on something for cooling I guess technically I can use the cardboard box yeah that's a huge so the thing with the LGA 3467 socket at least as far as I can tell because I never actually built in one is when you take off this plate there's no retention for it you can see where things would mount down right here here here here all right these are threaded because these are technically based off of server counterparts there's no retention system for it so we couldn't even mount it and play around that the time we wanted to because of the fact that we had no way to actually mount this sucker down so as best as I can tell you just put the socket or the CPU in the socket and then write whatever your cooling solution is gonna be now they call this a 1u because this is actually a water block design for blade servers so this they call this one u because the height of it means it will fit in a 1u blade i presumably they maybe have taller ones for like two you may be in for you I don't know but because it's also a server solution is why you get all these ports and all these different options and stuff on here since we're using this in a desktop platform we can just use the ones on top so we just need to plug these two holes here so your house what we're gonna do oh and then in terms of why the hell not because it takes two 24-pin power plugs as you can see right here we've got two 1600 watt power supplies from EVGA and then again because why the heck not we're gonna pair that now with 220 atti for the win three graphics cards obviously we're going to be putting it under water we need memory and I don't think I have six matching set dims of any other brands will be stealing six of them out of some perks for this and then what else we need to just do like an MDOT 2os Drive or something like that so why don't we just go ahead and build it and see what happens hopefully it boots on there are six EPS power plugs on this thing for eight pins and two six pins I feel like I need to pull out that third power supply it sounds like infinity war when you had to like refire the star yeah all right here we go this is this is put it see if it works all right well this monstrosity is built I don't even know if it works yet both of these graphics cards are brand-new the CPU has not been tested since we got it it is a retail sample not a in engineering the motherboard hasn't nothing's been booted yet except for the power supplies or the same ones we use when we do the RIP TN stuff so we've got two power supplies here a primary and a secondary so the secondary I'm gonna turn that one on first and if I turn on the primary okay cool nothing turned on like by default we've got ah LEDs on the screen saying rog darkness extreme let's just push power and see what happens we just shut down turning back on I know if it's learning Ram I've never booted this platform before okay so we should be getting something on the screen yes we have three keyboards in two mice and four hubs okay all right so we're booted up and everything works obviously we got 49 thousand one hundred and fifty two megabytes of RAM showing because well we've got six we got six dims in there which is kind of strange because they're eight gigabyte DIMMs and at first we only had 32 gigs showing and so it's the scary part about this particular CPU is the fact that like I said earlier the only thing that holds it down is the cooler itself there's no retention system where at least with Red River which is a similar size die it has that torque wrench that holds it down and so you you tighten in a certain order until you get the clicks and then you know it's good to go and the reason why with thread Ripper they state that that's important is it was a certain amount of tension needed for the pin contact for all the pins to be contacting so initially we were only getting 32 gigs to show up which means that like what two of our dims weren't showing up or something like that so I just basically went okay well I'll just keep tightening it you tighten the outside corners or the opposing corners until the threads stop because it bottoms out and the threads don't go any farther then the two that are in the middle one here and there it says you tighten those down next the thing is those threads don't really stop as far as I can tell it seems like they kind of just keep going and so I don't want to cause damage to our CPU so I don't think I had those tight enough so when I turned off the system and tighten those down further then we got all the RAM to show up so just kind of a little little note to mention there so now we are gonna go ahead and do some like some Cinebench and some 3dmark maybe overclocked a graphic graphics card slightly and there's our 28 cores and 56 threads right there I think earlier I called it a 24 or 48 thread it shows how much I don't know right now we're sitting at 30 C under idle as soon as I hit go that's a lot of squares and we jumped up to 62 63 ok 63 C under load and a 5400 States door without an overclock Wow frequencies at hey 3.77 at 64 c 55 30 alright let's go ahead and save that rig into CPU chart it's just like yeah fifty-five oh seven we lost a little bit of heart alright well go ahead and save that results and then that's what we're running are they're the old the old trusty seller on the LGA 775 so all I do is apply XMP and on the Asus board it'll ask you when you apply XMP if you want to also apply it all quarterb overclock and we said no to that so this is just Ram timing Ram voltage and then Ram frequency which is based on the XMP on this which is thirty-two hundred mega rig megahertz that's not that fast I mean when we were overclocking for our you know lnto stuff we were doing four thousand so that's not that fast but I want to see what just allowing faster RAM access for the CPU does if anything yeah so we lost a hundred points interesting for sanity let's go back on a side note we ended up putting the PCH fan as well as the the heatsink fans for the V RMS to max because even under idle conditions the V RMS were hot like just touching the heatsink was like holy crap so that was one thing worth pointing out okay that now we're back to just out of the box settings 2133 so interestingly enough even by going back to the default settings we still are slightly even below where we were just a second ago so we lost like a hundred points from one reboot to the next we made sure of iris protection was off all that sort of stuff that can be running so I don't know I don't know what happened but I mean I can't complain about that score and this is all stocks what we're gonna do right now is we're gonna go ahead and we're not gonna save that score or gonna do a little bit of tuning to the GPUs real quick we're gonna run 3d mark and we're gonna get 3d mark in a Cinebench score and then we'll play around the overclocks and see how much farther we can actually push it if that much at all we're hitting 63 C on water with it currently where it's at we might only receive like 4.5 or 4.4 maybe I think Steve was running like obviously ice water to get it to the temperature the speeds that he was getting which was 5 gigahertz so yeah let's see how far we can get it will hit 160 12 for 105 107 50 65 16 alright so we added a little bit of exhilarate culling to this we're pushing some air down between the cards cuz you know SLI configs even though there's a slot between still needs some better airflow for the top card we overclocked our graphics cards to about 2130 and then we added two fans for the RAM because the RAM was getting kind of cold or cold yeah we wish she was getting kind of toasty we gained a thousand points that's crazy look at that leave that like each time the bar moved to the right the likelihood of hearing it went a higher I think we're getting a pretty good feel for where this CPU can land obviously at this point stability comes with temperature you it's already been proven that has a six get colder a perform better I mean that's why you use extreme cooling for overclocking 15,000 597 wasn't a 15100 we had to beat 50,000 no 50,000 to something right if I reach the point to where I can't remember numbers anymore what's my phone number I don't know 13,000 284 okay so yeah we're just a tad above above that 15,000 597 15,000 575 I mean that like at that that's almost matched our other score which is funny because we're not running chilled water yeah a 480 rad with regular room temp you know air going through and this is not the coldest room this is way warmer than our other studios we have no air conditioner in here okay so looking at Steve score with two cards and a 31 75 X he has CP score 15,000 585 we got a fifteen thousand five to six on our GPU still a sixteen thousand eight seventy so obviously a commanding lead right our GPU is clearly lacking here I really want to see how close we can get not today but this is obviously just us trying to reignite the ignition on reignite the ignition and accelerate with Nas the rip Jian theory because that was fun God it's not gonna happen it's not gonna happen this week but we need to bring in exotic cooling I wasn't expecting our CPU score to be that far I know for a fact he was using chilled water so what was he testing that with I know he hit five gigs because he did that on live stream so how the hell did he hit five gigs max turbo core clock we were four point eight one five but got a higher CP score than him I think I think this needs to happen and before we see each other face to face next month alright guys you heard it here rip DN is back on and my Titan r-tx cards are getting ripped apart alright guys thanks for watching this long video literally we can't work at this for like ten efforts wait too long no I'm just totally I don't understand what's happening here
