I've said it before, I'll say it again: Linus and Alex doing jank water cooling is ALWAYS a great video. And this one actually performed pretty ok for parts that are almost all terrible on their own and not meant to be used together in the slightest. Alex is a master of just making it work. And I always get a kick out of how disappointed Linus is that the grand idea ended up being nothing but duct tape and cable ties. Adding some Jake to the mix just made it even funnier how bad it all came out, while still kind of doing the job.

For anyone wondering, the radiator used is a 6 column Alphacool Cape Cora from 2006, they were actually really good for the day but were designed for silently cooling a Core2 Duo era CPU (so up to 65w TDP). The team would have known from the beginning that it had zero chance of handling the heat load they were going to throw at it, made for a funny video though :)

This was amazing. Back in the late 90's early 2000's we used to watercool like this. I helped a friend build a geothermic radiator, that ran a copper pipe 15' under his back lawn; 30' into his yard and back again to his house, through fitting in the side of his house (all copper piping mind you) back to the office, where he had quick connect fittings custom built to run copper piping up to his computer, which was on a rudimentary test bench, and to hand made copper sinks. This took me way back to those days. I'm surprised no one mentions the galvanic corrosion issues caused by an aluminum sink and copper blocks... still that was entertaining!

@@NeXtarProducts it still works. he has his modern gaming rig on it now. changed the fittings so normal water cooling piping can connect to the copper pipes. the water is like 40F year round, he has a pretty heavy duty pump in a separate room so the whole thing is pretty much dead silent; and he lives in an area the ground freezes. part of why we buried the pipes down to 15 feet was because the ground doesn't freeze that deeply, and the temps are maintained at a pretty regular 40F or so year round (we consulted a guy about this when we were planning it). I remember when we built it we were joking about how much overkill it was for a 45W cpu being overclocked, and that it might be able to cool a cpu running 200W through it. Didn't realize that he could easily run a 1000W system on it. still can't warm the water, and he's got a 3090 and threadripper on it.

EM Technik is actually a manufacturer of high-quality plastic fittings. They're grey/beige not because they are cheap, but rather because they are not designed to look cool, only to perform well, with good chemical resistance. Two-piece ferrules (Linus holds one piece of it at some point, wondering how it can be part of a fitting) are common in high-quality compression fittings, metal or plastic (eg Swagelok). They are not "gamer-bling" fittings, but they are good ones.

They are good connectors, but only for high pressure system due to press to fit. The pressure tries to push the line back out, creating a seal by the design that requires the line to by push into the connector and the plastic ring must be held into the connector at the same to remove the connector.

More like Inta lists a bunch of stuff on Ebay that they don't really have, when someone places an order Inta buys the stuff from China, and then when it arrives they just dumped the envelopes from China into the box for LTT without bothering to check what they actually got from China.

@@coreymorse1347 Exactly. He does drop shipping 100%, and the weird item names on the packaging are for avoiding customs fees - I may or may not do that sometimes, if you ask the seller to put a low price on the packaging or list a different item, the customs officers won't check what's in the box, because the price is too low, and you don't pay tax on your packege - here's an unethical life hack for you'll

I soldered one of those copper blocks on top of the heatpipes on a laptop CPU heatsink. Works good enough to get 170W out of a 9900K CPU on it and silence the laptop fans when it's comnected. (It's a detachable setup)

That first pump actually probably was AC powered, and the L-Shaped PCB was there to provide AC conversion from that Molex DC plug. This way, you didn't have to run a second mains plug which of course was a hazard to forget plugging in every day.

I’ve still got that reservoir! It’s an Aquacomputer Aquatube and you could get them with a 5.25” bay adapter. I got the nickel plated brass one after several plastic tube res’s cracked. I sold all my watercooling kit except the res as they’re are/were hard to get hold of.

Right. And now try using the radiator segments in series instead of in parallel as they seem to be now. Looks to me like you could get a bit more performance out of it that way since the water actually has to flow through it all instead of being able to choose the path of least resistance.
