okay so this is cool our buds over it cable mod you know these guys that make fancy cables they just launched builds dot GG which they're gonna kill me for putting it this way but it's basically Pinterest for gaming rigs so if he so you build a gaming rig you submit it and then people can get inspiration they can see what parts you use they can see what like mods you applied to it or whatever the case may be and you can also go there if you want to find like the coolest rad stuff for your build anyway to celebrate the announcement they are sponsoring this video where Alex and I are going to be building our submission to build CG and they're launching a contest which obviously we're going to be winning where they're giving away 10,000 US dollars in prizes for the sickest builds so check that out but not before you check this build out oh let's have we told them what we're doing yet we're building an awesome system for for build Statue G okay all right so you have this course there C X 600 yeah be a bit careful because these are just wires why are these just bare it says in the thing scrapyard Wars is the reason so water cooling next is cooling right yeah so I have this Swift tech radiator I really like the bit where is it yeah the marine epoxy that's in here from the time that you drilled into it fun bit of trivia for our viewers radiators used to be designed with the water tubes directly under the screw holes so it was a fairly easy mistake to make if you accidentally over tighten something a little I've heard the washer aesthetic is like really in because the more washers you have the cleaner your build okay so what tubing do you think we should use I was thinking we need quick connects anyway so the white could just run to the quick connects and then we could change it to blue and red you know what though there's a compelling practical reason for putting in some clear tubing that way we can make sure the water is in there Oh true yeah and we need to make sure that it doesn't kink and write my own coils yeah those are really important so basically the way it works is you just kind of put it on there kind of like that and then it's like instant performance increase for your tubing kink free oh this right here goes on the front our build we're gonna have to go in from behind hmm actually I think that you can just take this whole radiator bit out yeah and just move it right to here then does that fit cuz if we could get even more cooling that would be great we could just double-sided tape it oh yeah that could totally work so for this build we're going to be using the ROG Maximus X formula it's a set 370 board and it's actually freaking sweet so really don't make a mess so we've got water cooling for the vrm that's built right into the motherboard it's awesome but my only concern is that these VRMs put out a lot of heat yeah so we probably shouldn't combine the CPU and the VRMs on the same radiator so I'm thinking is there's this cooler master Gemini or gemin 2's 424 yeah which I think could look really good in this case how does this go on oh yeah it goes over the RAM so that you get the additional benefits of cooling the round that's something you won't get with normal water cooling so we're going to go with the Trident C Royals they're definitely the blingiest Ram on the market at the moment it's like look at that look can you just see me so the most important thing before you put on your CPU cooler is to make sure that you get the correct amount of thermal paste oh that's gonna make a mess don't do that don't do that it's gonna take like 10-15 minutes to clean that up oh my god it's a dick up into the left just a touch so we're gonna have to sew tack mini 1080 that uh it got a bit chopped up so yeah yeah in the case yeah I remember that um did we shave down the top of it - yeah it looks like that we did this is gonna look great oh yeah straight from unloved 0 to epic hero by not cutting off the end of this zip tie I can actually keep it for use later on down the line because all you need to do is stick a little pin or something in there and you can bend that little plastic tab down and then you can actually extract this and completely reuse it for any length of project so I'm just gonna fold this up under the card kind of like that and what's really cool is that we actually get some additional cooling for the rest of the system out of this configuration so we're gonna put the GPU in the vertical mount right here and that gives us some direct cooling for our chipset which is located right here on the motherboard so I guess one thing that we haven't thought of yet is where is our pumping reservoir going to go no you know what it actually looks like look there are over Ang's in here that's o-rings not threading Oh straight piped in - in fact I love it so since that's just the reservoir we also have a pump yeah so I was thinking that this one right here from active aqua which conveniently has its own power supply we could just put it in here it has suction cups on the bottom - uh that's great and then we could just have it have its own power cord no that goes oh I hear can you help me cable manage this first though I'm sure see that that actually goes right back to if we just put a screw in there it's not the right one but uh it should work yeah I'm always gonna notice we do not have the correct size fittings at all oh really yeah we could just not do that yeah I think we're gonna have to not do the pump so I found another pump rez combo oh great I'm just not sure where to put it it's like kind of too long to go up in here like the last one yeah I like it fits but it's not gonna be great it could go sort of right there but it might be kind of messy yeah I don't really like that look mm-hmm I'm just really disappointed that we're not gonna get to use this rez anymore can we use this one too and just put it up into the top sure cool yeah tell me - Reza's is fine well and it makes a lot of sense because you want to have the water nice and high yeah so then we can just loop it here up there yeah I found that when I was strapping on my second fan here which I really want for optimal cooling that I was accidentally covering my PCI Express power connector here but get this I can actually repurpose my fan strap here as like cable management to hold it in that is using the old noggin now our power supply isn't modular so we can't actually replace the 24 pin cable but we can get what I think is really basically the cable not experienced with one of these extensions so we're just gonna run this down keeping the cable nice and taut as we go and then we're gonna run it back up and you can see that with the really vibrant green and black color scheme our extension cable the regular one just kind of fades into the background and you barely see it at all okay so I found some fan splitters and fan extensions so that's how we're gonna get power to our front fans over here and then I also found this single SATA 2 quad SATA power at at home nice yeah so that way with just this one SATA power plug we can power up to four SATA devices high amperage check this out there's even a high amperage header on this motherboard it's like it was designed for me to plug three fans into it now what I noticed is that those leads that I taped up mm-hmm what we could do is we could splice on a molex connector oh yes that to power the pump or do you think that we can just run this over to that and just sort it right on I mean I still want them to be detachable though so I'm not gonna solder them I'm just gonna use this them together and use electrical tape oh okay okay this is like the perfect situation where you want to use these antique ink what do you even call them just antique anchors yeah tube coils tube coils okay yep and as you can see I've gotten a bit artistic with it and kind of made a little a pattern here then we're able to just come in here like this would be horrible if we did not have these on but now we do not have to worry at all about potential pink äj-- and those VRMs just hitting 5,000 degrees i mean that should be fine yeah so you go in there with that and then we bring another tube out of there into the vrm cooler and then we're good we've completed the loop just make sure you leave enough slack in the lines that actually has a double benefit so one allows us to pull that out and fill it and then put it back in and two that means we can repurpose the soft tubing for a future build if we have a run that's slightly longer oh yes so I really want to use white to go down to the VRMs but we only have this little scrap of tubing fortunately check this out this quick can act from colder not only matches our red white and blue color scheme it can act as a coupler so then we can actually take check this out this piece of red tubing then and extend it that is perfect three two oh one oh dang so one of our Corsair fans isn't connected but that's not does work I think you might just have to power cycle real quick here I thought I saw hey nice ok so now we just need to I think we need to plug it up plug it into a monitor and stuff get these fan headers turned on and on yeah we've got all of these cables for the light strips which looks not all that great you can't have those cables there so I'm going to use this cable mode AIO sleeping to just get it all nice and tucked away so we don't have to worry too much about it oh I can smell it we are so close so at the back we've got a matching power an HDMI cable and then we've got other colors I mean yeah she walked out she really getting pretty I came from the bottom I came from the bottom Mobile Alabama all my killers and go and chill with your girl I see coach Lee I'm neht dool neht dool we've got quite the puddle here I might need to swap it out every like hour or two of use but that's fine think of it like oil changes for your car okay but instead of oil changes just filling out the oil leaks out the bottom which I mean that's a big example to deal with with their cars oh yes we've got a full bench drive ready to rock here I want let's see this thing Hall there's artifacting our GP is dead tickets speaking of dead this mean so thanks for watching our video creating out of parts we legitimately
