Metro Last Light Throwback Thursday Custom Build

2019-05-09
hey what's up youtubers it's throwback Thursday so let's do a little time traveling and go back to five years ago we're here on tech of tomorrow we built the incredible Metro last light system now this was an insanely over-the-top system at the time it had pretty much top-of-the-line parts on it it was custom painted I mean all in all this is just a crazy looking system I mean from the front you can even see it's got its liquid cooler you can see it right in the front the reservoirs right there in the front so it looks really cool also has a lamp Tron fan controller so all the fans can be controlled digitally and everything it even has guess what whoo a CD player yeah and check it out the case is the cooler master stacker case now this case was really crazy because it came with three different components a bottom component a middle component and a top component and we use these three different components for different things in the very bottom component we put all of the different drive so our SSDs and all that stuff we're all stored and in the top we stored all of the liquid cooling and all that type of stuff now you guys can see taking a look inside the system everything is on a custom-built you know liquid cooler everything is made it out of Swift tech parts that we were able to get at the time maybe a couple of our other companies but pretty much everything was made by Swift tech with the Swift tech pumps and everything and what's really interesting about this particular system is it's actually two completely separate pumps and everything else they actually meet in the middle to cool off the video card so both of the video cards are being a liquid cooled and the CPU and you guys didn't see the system still looks crazy umm it has the nice Metro last light right on the side of the glass it's all nice and artsy fartsy and all that good stuff and and all the components look really nice so we have an msi empower max motherboard now on the motherboard we have an i7 4770k chip now this particular chip is overclocked to 4 gigahertz everything's running great actually the system is will show you a little bit down the line is still running very cool as well and the two video cards are to seven 80s at the time these were actually or right before the 780ti scam out so they were like top of the line at that particular time and you guys will see that even in the scoring these particular cards in SLI are scoring like a 1070 and a lot of injured instances excuse me so it's still you know actually packing quite a punch for a system that is this old I mean think about it this system is five years old and it's still packing a punch now we have two different SSDs in this particular unit one by Corsair and one by Kingston unfortunately the Kingston Drive actually failed I actually went to go access the drives a couple minutes ago and that particular drive just totally just went and doesn't work anymore and a lot of people back in the day kind of kick this kingston SSD and really liked it I don't even think Kingston even they've got you know went past that and made new products we've got 16 gigabytes of the Corsair memory inside this bad boy all in all just a really solid system we're actually using an external hard drive for all the games I've started doing that a lot lately cuz I just feel it's better I can take the hard drive to whatever system I'm going on or just playing my games and not have to worry about limitations of the system and as long as I backed that hard drive up my games are here forever so in that respect we're doing pretty good now this system does have a little bit of a sound to it with all the fans turned off with all the fans turned on and everything else you can hear the system now right now in the background the system's running full blast I have all the fans running full blast they could be adjusted to be lower but I prefer to keep this system just with all the fans going inside of it keep it running nice and cool and it looks just nice the system runs nice it looks nice if we were five years ago this system would be like you know the shale I love what's going on now with that said though let's jump in and let's check out a few benchmarks and just see how does this system that's from five years ago do today let's rock out to the benchmark song and let's see now check this out Tech fans 36 Celsius on the video cards that's right these things are running really really cool and you guys can see the CPU is running really cool as well so you know that liquid cooling systems actually doing its job alright so there you go our very first throwback Thursday video if you guys like this would like to see like us bring back our old systems and re-show them or do like retro videos on Thursday let me know we can make this a new series in the channel or every week we have throwback Thursday and we do retro or old systems please let me know like usual we will have links to as many of these parts of they're still selling down there below so if you like to design yourself a system like this you probably can but why do I use old parts I wouldn't but hey you can find a bunch of these parts to use and put something together but you know like I said this system's five years old but for a five year old system it's still doing pretty doggone good and I think many people out there would still love to have this system inside of their house for a gaming rig in fact I'm the guy who works on my guitars he was really interested in the system but he wanted to do VR and I just really didn't think it was cutting for VR for the future with 270 ATS and if you're wondering what happened to my finger right here oh I'll let you know this morning at the hospital I got my leg broke yeah and I got my finger caught and crushed and almost cut off my fingers I won't be playing guitar for a little while and even though my leg is fractured I don't really feel it whatsoever my finger with the stitches is just throbbing man I have this nice scooter thing the car hit me and I fell over and it got caught between the bait the brake and the curb and just went kick and crushed it I had to stitch it up and man it's still throbbing leg not so much so if you're running a Hale or what the heck's up with the bandage on the finger and you know it's really stuck can't pick my nose now do that doggone it I'm pretty place to pick their nose sometime don't they know I'm just kidding or am i anyways thanks for watching love to hear your guys opinions if you guys want to see more throwback Thursday stuff please let us know if you're not subbed hey we'd love to see you guys back here on the channel for more videos I'm turning Rodef occations on and maybe they'll even let you know that
