ITX Custom Loop PC Build (Part 1 of 2)

2017-04-26
what's up everyone there is no PC behind me because we're currently building one in the NZXT Manta this is an ITX case it is fairly large that it's perfect for a custom loop this marks my first ITX custom loop PC build ever but I've pretty much got the whole ptg tube bending thing down it's you know it's actually fairly simple at this point but the bends are going to be a bit more into it because the case is significantly reduced especially from something like my first case which was the PCO 11 from Lee and Lee so with that I present to you a bunch of tech porn time you all right this is where I'm going to call it quits for part 1 I do expect I will have the build finished in part twos don't where this won't be a dragged out series but I had a couple issues that I ran into obviously this is like you know redundant by this point with custom loop builds but this Bend here was fairly easy and I do think that is like the I don't know I think it's super cool looking because it's so simple but it spans across the entire case so I actually really like that bent now this Bend I had to simplify it was originally coming from this port here on the reservoir up to let me see if I can get the camera angled night this rear port on the 240 mill rad up top now that was very technically difficult it took about three or four tries I was just read bending the same you know cent of PT G pipe and it just wasn't working so I decided to just make a simple kind of s Bend here up to the front 240 now the reservoir is also kind of cracking I'm going to try to rotate that this is just acrylic it's not strong so that's why it did that and then I do expect in part two to have an issue here this is the 120 ml in the back it's going to have to run into one of these two ports here in the CPU because the only other port left in the loop is up top this is going to be my drain and fill valve here so I that's going to be that's going to be tough but we'll tackle that import to my thoughts on the Manta I love it it's a beautiful case it's very large it's not you know the typical I TX small form-factor case but it is the perfect case for a custom loop like this I have it linked in the video description along with all the other parts here I will catch you in part two this is Salazar studio thanks for building this
