traveled Jay and I are travel with horse and buggy with horse and buggy because we're gonna get a few extra components so we're taking you on a bit of a road trip here but don't worry in just a few minutes we're going to be back at the studio and we're gonna be building Jay are they showing any of your ads here today I know okay I need to get my check while I'm here so Jay was telling me that the micro center liquid cooling stuff over here is provided by is supplied by frozen CPU yeah so although there's still a basket of goodies here that's way less than previously experienced so and it's looking like what we need is not going to be here no we have now returned to the Paul's Hardware studios first let me show you what loot we came away from micro Center with and zip ties there we go one thing that is what we came away with so the the the depth of frozen CPU has affected everyone's access to water cooling components so here's our plan let me kind of go over let me try let me try to stop dropping things and go over our plan now this is going to show you guys what we're gonna do today and also the tools that you need to do that so the first tool is Jay right there that's Jay's I did not mean to call you a tool there I just meant he's a defective means of water cooling we all know Paul's a nickel of course inside the case stuff you guys a little quick refresher we have everything installed we have everything lined up where we want it to be and now we're planning where where all them tubes are going to go from where to where the tightness of the the area that we're working with wrap in here is going to be our most difficult so this connection here is difficult and that the one back here for the upper Raider and the lower radiator upper radiator and lower radiator are also going to prove a bit of a challenge but I'm moving out along I wanted to briefly talk about the dilemma that we encountered when we were shooting last week's video that dilemma was the fact that our silicone inserts here were a little bit too thick to actually fit someone's rollin BIOS and hip-hop music they were - it was a little bit too thick to actually fit inside the PDG tubing which is right there so those are tubing now we kind of give a brief explanation of that because there are manufacturing variances and when you have something that you want to be a nice tight fit and and your manufacturer you're dealing with something that's mass-produced and maybe not specifically for this purpose that's being mass-produced for many different purposes but in this case we're using it for this the solution is basically to sand this tube so Jay has done some work sand in the tube a bit actually the fine folks over primo chill sent us some pre sanded tubes but if you run into this a problem at home you can sand your own tube I don't recommend doing that if you're not at least a little bit prepared if you want to sand your tube I recommend some fine grit sandpaper you don't want it to be too painful I had theorized that you could maybe like do a drill fitting on this and spin it but JLo sand that's proved to be very difficult because of the flexibility of the tube so guys if you encounter this issue and and we have to give a big shout out also to Richard aka Darth Beavis for providing us a little bit of tips there as well sanding down the tube first and then also using lubricants such as a olive oil olive oil is what Richard recommended and Jay what reused revert extra-virgin olive oil expanding your tube and then Jay wants to be like soapy water soap and water okay so soap and water is another a little easier to clean out but the extra-virgin olive oil has a little bit better viscosity okay so if you're looking for viscosity then that's the way to go and again the idea here is that this tube this silicone tube the flexible one should just barely be able to fit inside the PE TG tubing you want it to actually be a little bit difficult to get in there because the tighter the fit there the better the quality of your bends and you're going to have the subject to life less collapsing unless deformation of the tube itself which is something that J has never experienced right okay whatever deformation of the tube or my tube all right guys so um I'm just messing around here down okay they're done that's the world set it's the worst thing ever we're getting all set though so yeah so I'm guys over the next few minutes here we're going to take a look at these fittings and again I got to warn you guys right up front here although we're already probably four or five minutes into this video this is a temporary solution these obviously are chromed and we're going to want black we're going to set something up right now that will be functional so we can do the tube bending and get everything running and get the loop going and then I'm going to be getting some black fittings that I'll replace this I'm going to drain the fluid this one has to go at a later date so apart from the bills kind of all the building that we've done so far and the planning that we've worked on there are some tools that you might need for this type of venture this is the cheapest heat gun that they sell at Home Depot it's about 22 bucks does the job it was over in the paint section if you're wondering don't buy the $80 one that's by itself telling you like oh they only have one and it's 80 bucks no that one's that one's much cheaper we also have a hacksaw so we can cut the tubing to length should again get the job done we've got some scissors that you might need for cutting flexible tubing and then apart from that that's really all there is there are some additional tools you can get for this sort of thing like there's a what is it there something the pre Oh chill has which is like a big metal piece in it it lets you line up the tubing on it so you can figure out what angle so you can get like really precise 45-degree angles or that sort of thing but Jay said those are for people who don't know how to do hard line tubing of course if you see any other youtubers out there who are using that method and using that tool you should give them a hard time for it for not being able to just freehand it because I've heard J's J seems very intensely he's looking in there very intensely baby okay ladies and gentlemen boys and girls that don't use that editing Pole future vault you ignore that so I have two different pieces of tube right here one is PE T G and one is acrylic now on the surface these look entirely the same but I want to point out that PE T G if you can kind of get in closing so jagged that is when you use like a deeper tool very very thick area because it's so soft it actually kind of turns jagged when you when you go to deeper it so let's say you're gonna you just cut this and you want to deeper this because it has edges all over it in fact let's just go ahead and demonstrate there awake blade alright so when you cut PT g latest because it does heat up and stuff you get all these little Scout turn kind of yellow - oh so when you go to deeper this normally you just rub this tool on it and it cuts off all those Devers but as you can see it makes it still kind of rough see how rough and jagged it is that's pretty ropey acrylic actually you can listen to the difference in tone to see how much smoother that is so and the smell is different TDS you smell it is well so when you cut acrylic it's actually easier to work with but acrylic is not preferred we'll talk about different reasons you can kind of see right there you see the spider cracks oh yeah yeah what are we doing why are we doing it alright so after carefully looking at situation with radiators up here Jay decided when all of the connectors both ends and outs for the rads at this end two on the top here then two on the front here it's very crowded up in there so we're going to try to do is flip this 360 on top it's going to put the two connection points on this side which will give us a lot more room to work with for connecting up the CPU blocks and I do feel up over here this is going to limit our access for this rear fan so we might probably going to need to just ditch that fan entirely which we should be okay with we might consider dropping a 120 in there instead at the same time though since that we have plenty of room for that 120 should be your bowline 20 yeah there should be but then again since we're going with pull rads instead of push Reds now we'll have to remake a reassessment yes so that's the other change that we're doing here as well so you'll notice with the fans here and push which looks really cool I will say you notice where the fittings need to go on here you have a fan right in there so that means that you would need to go out further before you bend away from that for example so we're going to take these fans off we're going to put them in pull on the other side just that way that's cool like that let's see see look like we're almost done like when I'm doing fans on top of radiator for example I like to kind of corner up if I can if it's not going to affect the aesthetics of course so that way these cables are kind of right there next to each other and they can easily feed down that also keeps the lengths about the same way I do it yeah got a third one over there and then this is that this is the part of the build where you need four hands and two to hold it two more you can get away with three hands sometimes too I feel like you're zooming way down here maybe alright so we're gonna teach Paul how to finis tube as I learn how to use this camera my god you're gonna love me in post so because this is temporary we're just going to need a little Bend right there that's kind of a 45 with a slight curve to it it's ugly guys we know it's temporary fittings we want to get they did not have in stock so we're going to do now Paul is going to plug in his gun heat gun she can tell you how much much how much water to this pool since I'm using the kilowatt ice we have off low and high or we have nothing because the kilowatt was like using any power and then turn off lower hi Jay what heat oh um for PE T G we can do low I usually use low so as we're going to do this is the piece Paul Paul seems to be running radar here looks like he's a go maybe we shouldn't run it through the kilowatt okay so here we're gonna do we've got a bolt soap we have got a bending cord over there in the junk pile somewhere through the beginning chord you're going to drop the cord inside the book the thing there as we splash the computer keep things clean here okay so pick up your little tube or your little pipe whatever you call them capital tube and go ahead and thread that bending cord through it okay there we go give me paper towel handy I did oh yeah there everything see what I mean about that being actually a very tight fit just fits right in there surprisingly hard to fit in there huh oh you know you got to keep pushing using some olive oil would help here too but just really not doing a crazy Bend on this one we don't yet twisting as you enter as you insert it well you got to give it a little you know it takes some finesse you know it might be resistant at first but I feel like some smooth-talking really help you like hey all right that's far enough did you enjoy that dinner that we went out to earlier all right so basically now you're just gonna bend it are you going to heat it first of all okay so flip this like face up I grab those paper towels so basically you're going to kind of guesstimate how much you have to bend it based on this right here that's your you know planning on fulfilling there so kind of kind of look at it put it on low heat I'll do that for you okay and you just gonna sort of slowly rotate it why was ooming in oh my god you were really gonna love me of those bolts slowly rotating yeah then you'll see you'll feel it started to get soft it's going to start to kind of sag on its own soft now you can even move a little closer to the to the gun if you want this is the only time you you get soft the more you're ready that's starting to bend yep don't force it though just keep your corset just keep good to fascinating Oh get free materials ladies and gentlemen this is uh and so then we just no more no more heat Omar hey yeah if you have to force it it's not hot enough okay you should be able to just put under its own weight bend it get in there oh yeah okay now go ahead and start since you're not a very aggressive bend here go ahead and bend it to what you think matches the angle you need over there forty-five not quite look at the fittings over there so that's a little much so much yeah so keep it up keep it over the heat so you can bend it back okay yep pull it up and doesn't look they've got your blistering and crushing or anything which we've got a little bit of twist in there but for a first attempt might be a good practice piece see I've got a little bit of a bubble that I can see yeah but if you look in there it looks like you twisted it and zerah turning it I did that twists it was twisted alright so that was a good person we also see how you're getting a kink right here okay see that kink yeah that's that's bad we're completely out of focus no so that's because I'm like an event not the camera so that kink right there is because it was a little bit cold like when you started to bend it and then as you were turning it as it got hot you you started to twist it okay so that is a attempt number one this is a learning experience I go and pull your to bed of the junior huh so this is my first ever Bend so I'm going to keep this everything was actually good your problem just was you started to bend it too soon so I got I got a little excited yellow excited excited about my first ever two bending and then you twisted it and so yeah so try and that's something I wasn't even thinking about it all was the idea that I might twist rotate one end of it without rotating the other no no when I when I rotate it I don't actually keep rotating like a rotisserie I kind of turned 90 and then hold it and then turn 90 and then hold it I'm right okay until it's until it's ready to bend and then I do the bend dollar ones oh man we need to test this connection so we're yet again doing the blow test Jay has insisted that this is a crucial part of this entire process allowed me to just line up here ready Jay I'm ready okay blow test successful we're going for a very complex Bend here which we're going to try to loop out of here back around and then over to here it might be funky we're going to just roll with it though we're gonna see how things go it's gonna be funky really like blown on things you I learned from you Jay hey we said we would never discuss out you said you would never discuss that hey that's better than my last one is way better I mean you could just see where the cord ended you can see the car it ended it so yeah you want it you want to push it in farther Paul than you think you're gonna need you you so after a couple of moments of truth we've had a moment of clarity all jaded and this tube although it did fit it was a successful Bend and it's horrible it's not the prettiest Bend you can see we had to do several different kinks in it and in order to get from this point down here to this point up here Jay since he brought over a lovely assortment of angle fittings has dropped a couple D's on so we got a 90 over here and then a little jointed kink then dole it was only a 90 like if you vent this this way you can see it's an ID okay but it's a dual rotary so we use it as an offset and the offset was actually perfect to line up with the depth of this so now all we need is a single tube with like a 25 degree bend in it that's in my and here it is everyone we have finally completed well almost completed the arctic panther it's been it's been a great time Jay thank you so much for being here for helping out with everything and teaching me how to bend how to been - I will gladly teach you had a bend youtube any David well I really appreciate it so guys I hope you're happy with the ongoing progress of the bill that seems much much much more complete now as you can see we've done all the filling we were doing a bit of a bit of bleeding to get some of the air bubbles out recently doing some leak testing of course as well we went all haphazard and we did not use any paper towels we were relying on the white fluid to tell us if there were any leaks and anyways I'm gonna I'm going to suggest that you set this up to run tonight okay put paper towels in there and let it go all night long okay usually the paper towels are because it's easy to see like especially like red fluid and colored fluids and but white fluid dripping on a white paper towels might not be hot so but since nothing powered up in the system if you did get some sort of a leak you wouldn't damage anything okay so that we good other than that guys like we've mentioned several times there's still more work to be done on this there's some finishing touches of course thus leaving on the power supply is a big thing and the side panel mod that's coming up I'm going to be handled that pretty soon and at some point you're still going to switch all these chrome fittings out yeah lock so that we were kind of debating that so let us know down in the comments guys we went with these chrome fittings because Jay had them on hand and they made the bending process much simpler as you can see and I think there was no getting around it yeah there's just there's just not quite enough space in this case to do all the nice straight clean bends like we wanted so the fittings I think work out and actually don't look too bad with the chrome I I think I'm leaning towards switching them out for black ones though I think that'll just look that'll stick with the black and white thing overall but let us know what you guys think in the comments section down below of course don't forget to like the video don't forget to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already subscribed to subscribe to Jay's channel because he does this all the time and if you're into water cooling builds you definitely definitely check out his channel if you haven't already and other than that links that are down in description to all these products thank you thank you thank you once again to all the hardware sponsors for this build I'm going to run down them one more time ek and primo chill first of all for the water cooling components primo chill especially for today they provided all the tubing all the fittings as well as the fluid that we used it's called yang sickle which you probably can't read and I notice this prototype on there but they they did say it was okay to use your hold on there we go this is the fluid that we're using from primo chill yang sickle came out nice and dense usually sometimes you can get a bit of a a nonfat milk yeah look from from this type of thing but um looks pretty clean and then just lightly translucent it means that solid white but it looks good it matches your block bourbon and it goes it goes very well with the block so can't be happier with everything that's been done today so stay tuned for the sleeving video stay tuned for the side panel mod video and I'm going to do a final cleanup of this one and I'll give you guys some really sexy shots with all getting my slider out and all that good stuff but for tonight thanks again guys so much for watching we'll see you all next time and have a pleasant evening this is hello everyone we're reporting to you today from the surface of the Sun fixin it most
