[Laughter] you as with all new builds we had to do some testing and I discovered a problem and this is a problem I've done probably once or twice since I know since starting the channel so in the last five and a half years not a bad run if you ask me but it's a pretty noobish mistake one that I think even the best of us can make and I'll just show you if you look at the temperature right here Nick get in your clothes I want you to see how fast the temperature is rising on this graphics card right here it's actually not as bad as it was it was rising all the way to like oh jeez I went to look to like 80 C in the first 10 seconds of running I've actually got to improve a little bit but here's the problem this GP right here is not it's not put together right something is causing the block to push off a little bit so it's not making great contact with the GPU you can kind of see right here when I squeeze it you see all that see all that flex that shouldn't be like that that should be sitting nice and flush what I'm gonna do right here watch the temperature Nick stay focused on the temp so when I squeeze the block together watch the temps come down see I'm squeezing it see how it came down like 5 degrees 6 degrees instantly I'm gonna let go watch a temps client so what does that mean well guys that means that we unfortunately I say we it's all on me I have to drain the loop and I have to pull the GPUs out and I have to take that GPU apart figure out why it's not making good contact and put it back together so it's looking a lot like I just forgot to tighten these down look how this is how loose that was and this one's the same well I should just tighten that one off-camera this one's the same and that one's the same what I tend to do is I get everything in place and then I start with these four and then work my way out when tightening down the card it just seems like on this one I forgot to do that I'm still gonna take it apart and look at it probably reapply the thermal paste man there's some shaky hands today I'm a third yeah that's my shooting hand I'm still gonna take it apart and look though I mean like I said I it's four screws now to get the block off so what the difference at this point right right because if I put this back in and does the same thing again and I'm like god I'd be super mad I would be about as mad as pulse hardware well it's got good print now because I spreaded it already but I guarantee the first time like Nick saw off-camera it was going up to like a TC just like in a few seconds that's because it wasn't making any contact I'm fairly certain until I start squishing squishing squishing I think I just sort of forced it to touch a little bit okay so we've had Kevin benchmark running right now on loop and we are sitting at 45 C on the first GPU and 43 C Watts warmer here 43 C on the second GPU running heaven benchmark with everything's max tessellations max the anti-aliasing is maxed all the settings are max I'm trying to pump as much heat into this loop for a couple of reasons one I want to see what as max temperature is gonna be and two just because I want to make sure that the fix worked because I made that stupid dummy mistake of not tightening the block all the way but whatever even the best of us can make mistakes but anyway that is my system it is mostly done I just need to figure out the lighting I I want to put UV lights in here because the cable mod UV hybrid lights look phenomenal they're bright and the UV actually makes this loop just pop it looks radioactive it glows so much I definitely want that and although the asus or lighting on both the polaris fans from in wind and the ram-paige motherboard look great i want to front light that loop and make it really show so i got to figure out how i want to do that because obviously a tubular frame like this is not giving many mounting options for lighting and for it to actually look decent so I got to figure that out but one thing to kind of point out with temperatures here though we're sitting here at 46 C and 44 C under load overclocked to 2025 megahertz on Titan XPS on an overclocked 7900 X running 4.5 gigahertz with the fans running at their slowest speed so this is kind of like the worst case scenario in terms of temperatures and man you put your hand right here whoo it is warm there's no doubt about it so if I was to go in there and speed up the fans which I can do obviously using the aisa software then I can get better temperatures but I just want to see how bad it would be not even 50 see under this test which has been running for over a half an hour so definitely reached it will equilibrium on the Prima chill view fluid which is a brand new fluid bright green looks amazing but anyway this build wouldn't be possible without the help of my sponsors so ek water blocks are sending me the water cooling gear singularity for sending me this amazing reservoir pump combo in win for sending me the polaris fans and the d frame 2.0 I'm a huge fan of these fans sense so look a piece of dust I am a huge fan of these fans I know that sounds really silly I wanted to do RGB I wanted to control the fan color and the problem with most most fans is you've got wires upon wires coming off everywhere for that but in one actually Daisy changed them so I have one cable that has both power and RGB going to the first fan which is this one right here and it daisy chains to all six of them so all six are being controlled off one cable man that makes wire management absolutely amazing so that's even besides effect their amazing build quality with rubber standoffs and aluminum shrouds and it just looks amazing but that daisy chaining yes thank you for that oh my god thank you and it just uses an RGB header it doesn't require like any other standalone boxes to do anything thank you I just want to give a huge thank you to performance - PCs calm guys links to all these companies are down below they have always stepped in and helped me out when I forget something or I order something wrong and they always straighten it out and it seems to happen every single build but guys for your water cooling gear definitely go and check it out everything you see here in terms of water cooling and customization is available from them so definitely worth checking out and of course guys cable mod you guys remember how I showed you in the last update video how you can go in there and use their cable mod configurator to set up cables how you want them well that's exactly what I did they built them they arrived in less than a week and here they are now installed to my specs my length the colors I wanted the color order even these green screws right here I ordered through them that way we can add a little bit more green to the system so if you really want to get your system to the next level check out cable mod and check out their configurator pretty much every single major power supply is supported even the in wing one but guys it's time to go thanks for watching hope you guys have enjoyed this build series this is my new personal rig it means skunk works we'll be coming back to the studio which is gonna kind of suck now cuz I'm gonna be like I'm just looking at the D frame dad's got built two of every system now we have one for the studio one for home right way shaking her head no don't have to you wants to look at once to play on anyway I'm gonna go and some of you guys are probably wondering wort about benchmarks I barely got Windows and stuff installed on this I'll probably do a benchmark video but you guys are still waiting on the thread Ripper benchmarks as well and let's face it it runs about as good as you expect to Titan XP is overclocked to run and that's fast that's really fast all right guys I'm gonna go thanks for watching and as always I'll see you in the next one
