massive shout out to Corsair for sponsoring us here at Computex 2018 check out their 280x crystal series cases at the link below well he's done it again the overclocking modding I don't know it's hard to come up with a word for this guy that doesn't sound a little disrespectful cuz he's just kind of like out there but in the best possible way there Bauer has created something that many have tried but no one has succeeded at this my friends is a very early stages prototype of a completely pumpless all-in-one liquid cooling system now the first time I ever saw this attempted was in a post on Xtreme systems by old OC Zed Tony where he was like bat I was back when they released a CPU block that I don't know if literally anyone ever bought anyway they had kind of gotten it working such that like the evaporation of the boiling fluid in the block got the the liquid to cycle through the thing he was like yeah this will probably never be a commercial product and up until now he was right so check this out let's let's come in here and have a closer look now this is obviously very early prototype stages and there's gonna be a lot of changes made Wow it's actually a little bit a little bit toasty because there is a lot of heat under this this is actually an overclock to Intel 7900 X so even though there's only two sticks in here no this is not some like weak sauce KB like axis is probably about 140 watts you figure somewhere in that neighborhood so the only reason that the other two DIMM slots are occupied here is because there's this like pressure sensor thing sticking out of one side of it that will not make it into the final product although other than some kind of concept stage renders of what the product might look like we don't know too much about it one thing that we know is that the tubing probably won't end up looking like this it'll be either one or two tubes hopefully two because that'll improve the flexibility of the radiator placement a little bit but there are some special requirements that unfortunately I'm not allowed to discuss with you guys because he is being completely zip lipped about what kind of coolant he's using in here the reality of it is is you can't keep something like that that secret because there's like material safety data sheets and import and export laws and all that kind of stuff so he has to keep as few people as possible in the know like he didn't invent a liquid here so as few people as possible need to know so they can't replicate it basically what we do know is that the tubing won't be able to have too deep of an s-curve in it because then the condensing liquid that's dripping back down towards the CPU will get stuck we also know that the radiator will have to be above the CPU because that's the way that the coolant cycles it's kind of like a heat pipe so you can see here the CPU is actually visible under there and then we've got some kind of an element like a like a conductive piece of metal that it's connected to here and that is boiling whatever liquid this is the gas Rises all the way up to a very very again prototype stages looking heat exchanger here where there we go there's a better look at it where we've got these kind of it looks like it's C and C down like kind of a cnc'd bottom piece here where it turns back into a liquid and then drips back down towards the CPU at the top and this will also need some significant changes for the final product we've got a couple of what looks like server one you are these just 1u server heat sinks Wow dinah tron very nice couple of dinah tron copper server heat sinks with 92 millimeter fans on them but what we're going to end up with in all likelihood is more of a conventional radiator form factor and with something like the same kind of fan that you'd have on a rear exhaust blower style GPU kind of scattering the air out around it in terms of mounting hardware we don't have too many details yet so I'd love to hear from you guys in the comments actually a couple of things first of all I'd love to see if n you can guess what coolant that is because Roman is pretty confident over here that no one is going to figure it out and I'd love to hear from you guys what kind of mounting hardware would you like to see included this is very likely to be a limited-edition product I'd be surprised if they make more than like a couple hundred of them personally but it would be a very cool piece of custom PC modding history to own because this is another cool thing we've seen concepts of this before and even though there's no pump they end up kind of loud because you can hear the coolant boiling this one completely silent because of the thickness of the enclosure here by the way if you're looking for a case to throw it in you might want to check out Corsairs 280 x-series they've got a couple of actually they've got four different versions it's in black or white and with or without our jeebies it's an M ATX case design with multiple cooling zones and it's kind of an updated look of one of their older cases with yes my friends do you guessed it more RGB the RGB version includes two of their Lite loop RGB fans as well as their digital node controller which is compatible with their new IQ software you can learn more about the 280x crystal series at the link in the video description so thanks for watching guys you just like this video then like you're on the wrong channel quite frankly but if you liked it hit like get subscribed or maybe consider checking out where to yeah good luck you can't buy it yet so let's put a link to like like cat videos in the description I don't know who cares just subscribe to Linus tech tips so you don't miss any more videos from Computex 2018 you can't get away from the soil stare
