oh ok start okay so we are in st. Louis this is where a Tony lives were actually at so you say most universities the right yep and we're at here at the land only flew me out to participate in the intel lan fest this is my person whenever i really enjoy the environment its pre awesome experience to encourage all of you to attend one if you can Tony here bill species that's his thing and he builds a lot of really awesome custom pcs custom loot build that you'll see here shortly yeah I mean it was really it started out just to fill the need that kind of like turned into a hobby I've always been the type of person that I like it I like a challenge and I've always kind of pursued different creative outlets kind of always been sort of an artist so it really just has blossomed into a avenue for me to express my creativity and I'm really drawn to the more challenging type bills so like one of the things I'll do is I'll see a particular case that you know I think of myself that case isn't miss chillin meant for a lark old system but if you're willing to take on the challenge it could potentially do something that is really neat you know if you're honest with people you have to tell them watercooling really doesn't make any sense from a cost and performance standpoint but if you've reached that level as an enthusiast where you're getting into custom water cooling you should take that in my opinion you might as well take the opportunity to like take it to the next level and then we create the best looking build that you can so that's that's kind of the way I approach it feel like I've inspired some people to maybe take it to the next level or you know just just fuel their passion for the hobby it's like that's kind of rewarding for me so yeah so we're about to see what 5pcs that you've built personally yeah different gear yeah flora bummer for rumor custom water-cooled the fifth one is just just there's no custom water cooling in it but it's a neat steam so yeah kind of we're showing off let's go check it out awesome right okay so nice oh I you know I just repeated this because we're speaking a over them over the intercom quite a bit but Tony's built several visa pcs actually all them that you see here you have pretty much all right yeah oman these are all his released his creations and kind of want you to just walk us through like each one and you know if the process you went through and the dollars okay the system here I built for my son it's an online course air air 240 one of the neat things about this case or i guess i should say it's the main reason I wanted to build in it is it gives you the ability to do an inverted system which is something I've been kind of wanting to do I ran into some headaches along the way as I've run into previously with course their faces but i wanted my main goal with this bill was I wanted all the components since this is kind of a dual-chamber separated design I wanted to be able to have all the components like terminate into the midpoint so I had to build that from scratch again it's just acrylic it's acrylics actually awesome it's real versatile it's it's fairly easy to work with if you have the right tools you can literally order vinyl on amazon and have it in one or two days and then you can just use it and it's done can I think you got you have two vinyl right there on the back yeah those it like the carbon fiber this is actually the vinyl that they use you know for car wraps yeah so it's cool I mean it's got a neat depth to it so yes is this disc you did yourself you cut this whole piece out and the piece in the back yeah and then if you notice you and this piece here the way an ox is around down there because that's actually a little like gorilla back there yeah they're just stupid tiny fans that nobody here report good 80 millimeters weather yeah yeah then I get to use like further for the holes for my pastors obviously there was a lot of planning that went into where those would be and I could probably pull the panel off the back here and show you you know I just use soft soothing back here this is a mess right now just ignore how bad this is because I've had a couple of issues with this and it's not oh yeah the fans aren't working the fans yeah I haven't seen more about this in a future video but anyway yeah and then i just used soft tubing back here it wasn't really any reason to mess with rigid to be a look smart alright so this bill here this is actually one that I did for someone who came to me and asked me if I could do a custom loop in his computer he builds us for him to be able to play BR so again if the piece of acrylic skin with like a brushed aluminum style vinyls so that's why you don't really see the side of the fans of the radiator is whole sort of hidden behind there and that I didn't do that because I wanted to hide the stands and radiator I did it because I wanted to be able to hide the LED strip and that's just kind of the way it works out so but the thing that that I was able to achieve what this build is that I was able to run the tubing in such a way that the person who owns this pc now is able to access all of the components upgrade the system on their own without necessarily having to worry about disconnecting any of the water cooling yeah it's all pretty install conveniently routed out of the way low yeah and it works out well too because since there's a window on the top of the case having all the tubing or avocado really really needs you went on the water cooling was in common that's a pretty simple loop and this is the 570 x of course Derek man correct yeah the 7700 k so I think we have a real mild overclock like 4.7 like so you know I wasn't going to push it on a system it's not mine they're not going to be able to troubleshoot issues from Matt overclock so keep it simple so this one here is this is actually my personal rig my rig is always kind of a work in progress right now it's rocking a 1080 the goal is to get my hands on a 1080p I that's why this isn't water cool but I've got all the tubing routed across the top to wear you know you just see the tubing terminate I mean if you look up in there you can see it yeah that little gap between you know where you might have your radiator support normally and then the top of the case there was plenty of room up there to run the tubing I need a dremel in out a pretty big section of the basement for one the palm pres combo wasn't going to fit through the stock opening there so i had to enlarge it anyway it's your pretty typical high-end system 32 gigs of course they're dominator platinum especially as e170 board we've got the 950 pro that's only a 256 and then I've got to 500 gig 850 evos and raid 0 that's that are on the back side of the case this is the evolved tempered glass this is yeah the into of all TV so this one here this is the this is the this is the one that's getting the most attention I think for obvious reasons the coolant ironically this is probably the system I spent the most time on not because I was being meticulously because there was just a difficult build getting this much water cooling to fit in this small of the case especially when you consider you know factoring in a place is res it is a DDT palm so it's smaller but we're still difficult to figure out how to get all of this town in here I ended up having to build a custom like plate to be able to mount the ddc to which if anyone's like thinking about doing a similar build in this case I do have a four-part billboard on lighting on where you get a little bit more in detail on you know kind of what I went through to make the squirt because I did you know I had a plan and I had to change it and then I had to change that plan like you start doing this yeah you start doing the stuff and realized it doesn't work at least for me personally if it's not challenging I kind of leads into so definitely it looks like a challenge right there yeah I mean it paid off though you know now one thing this is acrylic tubing is the build in the fan sex case was also occur like the previous fewer petg so what's your preference acrylic repeat ECG I feel like like a close one yeah it's a couple different reasons I don't know why people are so hell-bent on using peds II and saying it's easier I think Skrillex just as easy to work with and I feel like I can get nicer been from a curling but I like the rigidity of it it allows you to get much nicer angles on your Bend petg especially along longer runs tends to want to flex along that system so it's hard to get like perfectly straight and maybe maybe I'm nitpicking but I do notice those things and they'll kind of bother me so Bonilla nope this is these are actually older components this is a z77 motherboard sexually an Ivy Bridge build with the GTX 980 but it's still a pretty pretty strong build for 1080p gaming so and for those wondering i'm not sure if you said is already what the coolant that we use its mayhem zarorat they handle or yeah let's Aurora yeah it's pretty amazing now a lot of people you know everyone on the internets an expert so when you when you show off the system with aurora coolant you know a hundred people have to tell you how you use the wrong coolant because this is only meant for show bills well here we are at a show so yeah for all the people that were giving me for using aurora coolant which i caught a lot of flack for it on reddit a couple other places but yeah it looks amazing it shows off really well it bantams does not recommend running it in the system long-term honestly worst case scenario run it in your system you get the particulate built up you clean it out you know yeah maybe that's the pain but it is what it is so and then the last system here the what we we jokingly called the t-mobile bills this one obviously doesn't have a custom loop however very clean bills obviously a well-executed theme and color scheme didn't do anything drastic for this other than just you know with the custom cabling and just spending some time and effort this kind of like showcases what is achievable or even just the average system builder if there yeah you're willing to put in the time I'll tell you this i posted the picture of this on reddit and i got a ton of for mounting the cpu block upside down people acted like that was the end all of but if you rotated this around you you jack up the tubing routing in a much cleaner tubing routing to me makes the build look cleaner than a right-side up text on your damn cpu block so obviously that's a preference but you know this tubing is actually pretty long on this aio so i'm more of a fan of a cleaner run the reason that I ran such a long route for the graphics card cable is you have all this awkward empty space down here so just having something there helps to balance out you know the build gives you some point of interest that's happening down an upgrade ok [Laughter]
