If you want more expensive water, pick up deuterium oxide, a.k.a. heavy water. At $2000 per liter it's pretty pricey, but comes in high purity grades (so no minerals). It also has a higher heat capacity, so it actually improves the cooling.
That leads me to a segue to our sponsor the new exciting blockbuster Oppenheimer in theatres now, featuring heavy water available at all good secret underground bases.
most of what they use in these videos in existing inventory they have, they would have to actually spend $1000s for heavy water which I doubt they would do as an accessory for a video. Maybe if it was it's own entire video
For the next Compensator build you should build two systems: one "most expensive" like this one and one no holes barred "most performance" and compare them, just to really drive home the point that more expensive doesn't mean better (not that it wasn't obvious already).
I think they should do that with this pc, just don't tear it down for a couple months and make another video with components that were available when they built this one but making use of their computer knowledge to build the best pc rather than the most expensive.

Quick word of advice: you should replace the fancy water with automotive waterless coolant, it's likely more expensive, and will probably work better and let the system last longer (assuming it doesn't murder acrylic and the tubing)
I'm a mechanic, the coolant we use would absolutely destroy acrylics and o'rings. We regularly have to replace industrial hoses and seals because they get eaten out after 2 years or so, if I was to take a guess regular PC tubing and seals would last a few months? Might be wrong
Yeah, I still remember when I had 2 9800Gx2s in a system. Barely worked worth a crap but the few games that Quad SLI did work in there was a nice performance boost. Plus it looks pretty badass.
Now it's the ML/AI builds that have multi GPU. Who knows? If running personal AI at home becomes common we may actually see people building their own 6 GPU home servers, similar to what TinyCorp is doing with the TinyBox - 6x AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX in one PC.
With AI being easily distributable and RAM hungry, multiple video cards generally work automagically. There are already AI mods for Skyrim. It's good to have a second card doing AI stuff anyway, or even a third.
Should've gotten Red Line Water Wetter. It's an additive for straight water cooling, used in performance cars, mostly drag cars. One bottle costs almost $14US, and treats 3-5 gallons of water. It would make using distilled water relatively safe.
@@FectacularSpail distilled water is 'hungry', and will bond and react with whatever it comes in contact with. This can lead to corrosion, electrolysis, and leeching. With dissimilar metals in a cooling loop it could cause reactions that will eventually damage fittings and cause leaks. That's why a lot of water cooling additives for PCs already exist. If you really want to ruin your loop, run pure deionized water in it.te
@@sireuchre whoa, that's the opposite of what I had assumed, but it makes sense. I've never messed with water cooling (yet), but good to know for future reference. Thanks.
@@FectacularSpail You want to start with a base of distilled water, and put in additives that keep the water from reacting or growing organic stuff. Plain water from the tap varies a lot, and many places will have mineral content that can cause issues with deposition. In car coolants, water is mixed with primarily a glycol, which keeps the hydrogen bonds 'busy' and alters the boiling and freezing points of the water, to increase efficiency.
@@sireuchre This. also I remember back a few years ago when water colling was starting to get around in sweden how some water cooler came or you could order water because the water in Sweden is so all over the place (its still good better then the US for the most part even in the worst part of sweden... drinking) but for gaming and that it could be really bad.

Just so you know, Gerolsteiner is a Water from Germany, its not as costly here. But everybody HATES it. Was very funny to see you guys putting it in this Build for 7!!!! Dollars.(we pay like 1.45 per Liter).
@@kennytheamazing Yes it is. Same thing with Evian & Perrier water (shipped in from France), Acqua Panna (Italy), and Fiji (shocking no one, comes from Fiji). It's why they cost so much here (yet are vastly cheaper in their source country).
We went to a restaurant that, no kidding, had a water sommelier suggesting water that made good scotch look inexpensive. We also did not buy any of the silly water, but I did get some good scotch.
@@KetchupSaucesnot trying to be that guy but, because of the first principle of thermodynamics, you can't destroy energy (and so thermal energy as well) but only move it from an object to another. Basically you can't cool your room by keeping your fridge's door open because it will just keep moving heat from a place to another inside the room. The case by itself can't cool down your room, only heat up the rest of your room to cool down the inside of it. Unless you mean a room-sized case, in that circumstance yes, you would froze to death lol
I couldn’t hear any insulation between the brass end cap and aluminum screwdriver body when Linus snapped it closed. Make sure the next prototype includes a thin recessed ring of Teflon or even rubber. It’ll help prevent rattles, will keep moisture out of the bit-holder and - most importantly - will prevent the inevitable galvanic corrosion that occurs when aluminum and brass come into contact with each other. 👍
If I could design my ideal setup, this would undoubtedly be my absolute dream build. I hope to afford something like this one day. Thank you, LTT, for your inspiring contributions to this remarkable industry. Keep up the excellent work!
25:24 One thing I've always hated about monitors are their stands, but I gotta say, for a monitor that big, I think that stand is probably the best stand I have seen, ever. It's flat and squared, allowing for perfect placement of things on top of it, so if it happens to be in the way of your keyboard it doesn't matter, as your keyboard easily goes on top of it with no issue, or if you want to place something on it, then that's also no problem.
@@cracknigr6065 it is designed to be used at 100cm from it with its 1000R, I use one for work replacing a 4x27 in monitor setup with FancyZones. No problems here after reducing the brightness significantly.
I know Ugreen is the sponsor now, but I love my Jackery Explorer 1000. I'm a full-time paramedic student and I needed it to power my Starlink and tablet while working on a pipeline in the rockies. I also loved being able to continuously charge it with solar so I wouldn't have to idle my work for hours or bring it in every night to charge.
@@tiagoviana263 you can charge it on solar alone in a day, but I don't know how long it takes. I had the solar plugged in all day to prolong use because it wouldn't last me a full 12 hours. I had to plug it into the truck when I ran the AC and while driving in and out of site.
@sandmaster4444 all the friends who snickered at the misalignment of cost and use case and actual products along the way. Thats the true cost of a Mac. Okay that one didn't work that well....
Its because they built it Badly on purpose to highlight the stupidity of buying expensive parts expecting high performance. They didnt put the ssd in raid, overclocking badly drops performance, not using the whole quad channel RAM was stupid (clock speed is useless VS bandwidth) and so on.
I was hauling a 85” tv the other day and at 50kg it seemed so heavy but it’s actually all down to the size and shape of the object and the surface area with which you have to grip. I don’t think that rig would be too heavy to hold for a minute or two.
In my opinion this compensator build shouldn't be about the most expensive parts but rather about the best parts you can get no matter how much it costs.
Same, break the FPS, not the bank. Else all you have to do is go roll out old HEDT and because MBs are the big failure point long term, a new MB for that is stupid expensive. $1200 for the MB, $1000 (new price, but there are ones that are/where more) for the CPU. 5-6 gen old hardware and the performance is now meh.
I love that case. Der8uer reviewed the first version of this case and it bombed cooling wise. Then the company sent him that version of the case that addressed all of his concerns about the first and it rocked cooling wise. It’s a German company and the case is manufactured in Germany 🇩🇪.
Exactly. You could get a $3000 P. C. And still smoke this set up. There's no debate for that. Obviously, spending more money doesn't mean you're getting better. Everybody knows that
Whats crazy to me is I literally JUST bought a PC with the same CPU/GPU combo, and managed to get the whole package for about 3k. yet another reason why expensive isn't always the best idea.
@@Sakura_Yuki_NCYou can probably do better since the processor isnt the best for gaming. A 7800X3D is much better especially in some games like Tarkov.. This is just consumerism tbh.. nobody would ever need this.

This one probably needed to get out prior to the embargo lift on Threadripper 7000 so that it's not a waste of a video (based on the comments at the beginning of this video). It's clear that this was shot even before Intel 14th gen was released.
I've been using the Mountain Everest as my daily driver for about a year now, for someone who's only *moderately* into keyboards it's amazing, if you want a really nice keyboard and never want to have to think about it again i'd definitely recommend it!
Fun-fact: when you live in Gerolstein, the tap water is pretty much the same water they use to "make" Gerolsteiner. And Gerolsteiner is like 0,7€ a liter in Germany.
I think a cool video idea would be to build the best PC for the cost of each component on this PC. Like build a computer for the cost of just the processor, the motherboard, PC case etc. So for the motherboard PC you would have 1200$ . It would be really cool to see how many PCs and what specs you could get out of them for the cost of each individual components.
If it is a true compensator, I believe you are obligated to purchase the newest and greatest thing (threadripper) when it comes out and everything required to upgrade to it.
7:50 - I still feel like the ideal setup for a PC Peltier (TEC) cooler is to run your loop: CPU > Radiator > Peltier cold-side (with it's own separate cooling loop and radiator for the hot-side) > CPU. That way the first radiator brings your coolant down closer to ambient, and then the Peltier cools it below ambient. The other advantage being that the Peltier never acts as an insulator and your system can still run even if it fails or can't keep up. Not sure what EK was thinking with this setup.
@@ErnieZee 1) Use a coolant that has a lower freezing point than water 2) Use a temperature control so the Peltier only turns on when needed. Sub-ambient ≠ sub-zero unless you're outside on a freezing day for some reason.
I have been theory crafting about a system with a big reservoir and multiple loops. 1. reservoir > cpu > radiator > reservoir 2. reservoir > gpu > radiator > reservoir 3. reservoir > peltier cold side > reservoir 4. radiator > peltier hot sidd > rafiator This way you never have the downsides of the limits and insulating effect of the peltier because it is basically a normal system. The peltier just cools your reservoir aditionally. only downside is you have to insulate all the tubes and the reservoir if you plan to cool below the dew point.
@@Enderplays12 For sure, if you throw strong enough TECs on it, you could make a setup like this work on any CPU, but it's still incredibly inefficient (on top of the inherent inefficiencies of TECs in general) and prone to unexpected failures. TECs have a limit to the amount of heat differential they can move (usually 20-40 degrees C), so the closer you can get a loop to ambient before introducing the TEC, the better sub-ambient cooling effect they will have. Without that, you start hitting thermal saturation points on the hot-side of the TECs and the they become a net-negative on performance.

My first thought when they added the carbonated water was that the carbonic acid in it can be corrosive, depending on what materials it comes into contact with.
My brain is still in sleepy mode, but AFAIK carbonated water isn't acidic off the bat? It can become acidic depending on the material it touches, which I think most of the material in that system is PETG tubing and aluminum.
@@NarutoMagicCyclops all carbonated water naturally produces carbonic acid in small amounts. It's what gives sparkling water its horrible taste that some people seem to enjoy.
Ok, the sparkling mineral water was silly, but otherwise, the system is really impressive. Kinda sad that such an expensive cooling setup is still outdone by more traditional water cooling, for half the price. Seems thermoelectric cooling tech just isn't there yet. Fun an interesting build, and very jealous of that monitor.
Oh it can Be !! No one here has seen what is Really is possible with Tecs! You can run them in Layered Stages,but nobody has done that here cause it would go Sub-Zero. Tecs take ALOT of Power to run ! They can be power Hogs if you want Large performance. They have very tiny ones too ! Why did you think Linus made that Hand gesture about anything BUT Gaming,cause it's hard to control Tecs,they like to be ON or OFF! Not in between or low voltage,they don't do $#!T ! They are Great at what they do,they're not energy efficient though.
Doing a lan room build would be sick. to see what specs all get built into the systems, connecting everything together to work seamless, overall price, etc.

I'm most baffled how Gerolsteiner costs so much in Canada (and why anyone would export water from Germany to Canada). Here you can get it for about 0,55€/L
Clarification for the Gerolsteiner Water: This water is really not that expensive here in Germany, like 60 cent for a liter. So it's not the cheapest, but there are way more expensive options out there. The price of $7 CAD is most likely transatlantic shipping and markup for having european water.
Yeah. I was really confused when Linus pulled out the bottle. Like what's the big deal? I have like 5 boxes with 24 bottles each in my garage for about 40€ total. That's just normal water.
Now make the cursed version. Same processor but with maximum degradation due to overvolting and via oxidation. 11x 8 TB HDDs. 1 GB DDR4-2133 and a one of the HDDs is entirely for the swap file. A window AC unit for cooling. The case is literally a refrigerator.
I love these videos but every time they do something silly! i wish they would actually build a true compensator PC but with the BEST parts possible and most compatible with raw performance in mind, or even an AMD compensator video would be awesome
You should've been using La Veuve Cliquot or, better, some 50-year old whisky for the cooling system. It would easily double your price and make the system even slower, hotter and less serviceable - mission accomplished!
These are sick pcs I juts got a brand new pc my first ever one I built it myself and it was a blast your videos have helped me build my pc to much and I have learned about all the parts from your videos😊
I was wondering why they didn't use a contact frame and mill the cpu like debauer says, would increase performance, but especially because it would add cost, since they were going for the most expensive.
Seeing 3d printed parts in a low volume computer case is actually pretty cool. Of course it's still monstrously expensive but even then, not needing to get factory tooling for even a few of the parts probably saves a lot of money that gets passed to the probably
gerolsteiner is a german water brand and in germany it isnt even close to that expensive it still isnt cheap but the price is way more reasonable (its like 9,25$ for 12 bottles) the price probably comes from import cost just like with evian or other european water brands
This Case has been reviewed by Debauer... At the time of his review, it under-performed so amazingly that the manufacturer stated they were going back to the drawing board and took it off the market for a bit... I hope we get another review on what I hope is model #2 now that it's gotten Linus attention... But buyer beware on the case.

I was thinking why dont they put proper coolant for a car or something in it, would it not work?
I'm a mechanic, the coolant we use would absolutely destroy acrylics and o'rings. We regularly have to replace industrial hoses and seals because they get eaten out after 2 years or so, if I was to take a guess regular PC tubing and seals would last a few months?
Might be wrong
Car coolant would definitely destroy things
this definitely makes me miss SLI... it was so cool seeing more than one card in a system
I loved when they would jam 8 GPUs into a case as well
Yeah, I still remember when I had 2 9800Gx2s in a system. Barely worked worth a crap but the few games that Quad SLI did work in there was a nice performance boost. Plus it looks pretty badass.
Me too, even though SLI was effectively terrible.
Now it's the ML/AI builds that have multi GPU. Who knows? If running personal AI at home becomes common we may actually see people building their own 6 GPU home servers, similar to what TinyCorp is doing with the TinyBox - 6x AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX in one PC.
With AI being easily distributable and RAM hungry, multiple video cards generally work automagically.
There are already AI mods for Skyrim. It's good to have a second card doing AI stuff anyway, or even a third.
I cant think of a worse time for a non HEDT compensator build to come out than the embargo date for threadripper
Exactly lol. This could not have been timed more perfectly.
If it was threadripper it be like a 40k build because they'd have to fill all those extra pci-e lanes with more drives or things, and more ram
@@Klairity Even without that it would probably not be far off because the most expensive threadripper is $5k on its own
You'd think they would go for a frequency optimised xeon or something. They can be had for not totally stupid money's in this kind of price range

Should've gotten Red Line Water Wetter. It's an additive for straight water cooling, used in performance cars, mostly drag cars. One bottle costs almost $14US, and treats 3-5 gallons of water. It would make using distilled water relatively safe.
Wait, is distilled water not safe?
@@FectacularSpail distilled water is 'hungry', and will bond and react with whatever it comes in contact with. This can lead to corrosion, electrolysis, and leeching. With dissimilar metals in a cooling loop it could cause reactions that will eventually damage fittings and cause leaks. That's why a lot of water cooling additives for PCs already exist. If you really want to ruin your loop, run pure deionized water in it.te
@@sireuchre whoa, that's the opposite of what I had assumed, but it makes sense. I've never messed with water cooling (yet), but good to know for future reference. Thanks.
@@FectacularSpail You want to start with a base of distilled water, and put in additives that keep the water from reacting or growing organic stuff. Plain water from the tap varies a lot, and many places will have mineral content that can cause issues with deposition. In car coolants, water is mixed with primarily a glycol, which keeps the hydrogen bonds 'busy' and alters the boiling and freezing points of the water, to increase efficiency.
@@sireuchre This.
also I remember back a few years ago when water colling was starting to get around in sweden how some water cooler came or you could order water because the water in Sweden is so all over the place (its still good better then the US for the most part even in the worst part of sweden... drinking) but for gaming and that it could be really bad.

@@kennytheamazing Yes it is. Same thing with Evian & Perrier water (shipped in from France), Acqua Panna (Italy), and Fiji (shocking no one, comes from Fiji). It's why they cost so much here (yet are vastly cheaper in their source country).

@@KetchupSaucesnot trying to be that guy but, because of the first principle of thermodynamics, you can't destroy energy (and so thermal energy as well) but only move it from an object to another. Basically you can't cool your room by keeping your fridge's door open because it will just keep moving heat from a place to another inside the room. The case by itself can't cool down your room, only heat up the rest of your room to cool down the inside of it.

I couldn’t hear any insulation between the brass end cap and aluminum screwdriver body when Linus snapped it closed. Make sure the next prototype includes a thin recessed ring of Teflon or even rubber. It’ll help prevent rattles, will keep moisture out of the bit-holder and - most importantly - will prevent the inevitable galvanic corrosion that occurs when aluminum and brass come into contact with each other. 👍
"keep moisture out" buddy chill, moisture isn't an issue. You aren't waterproofing freaking screwdrivers
@@dimitrijekrstic7567Dumb comment. Some people work outside, where things get damp.
If I could design my ideal setup, this would undoubtedly be my absolute dream build. I hope to afford something like this one day. Thank you, LTT, for your inspiring contributions to this remarkable industry. Keep up the excellent work!
25:24 One thing I've always hated about monitors are their stands, but I gotta say, for a monitor that big, I think that stand is probably the best stand I have seen, ever. It's flat and squared, allowing for perfect placement of things on top of it, so if it happens to be in the way of your keyboard it doesn't matter, as your keyboard easily goes on top of it with no issue, or if you want to place something on it, then that's also no problem.
In the way of your keyboard? You gonna sit just 50cm away from a 55" monitor or what? You want your eyeballs well done, right? :D

I know Ugreen is the sponsor now, but I love my Jackery Explorer 1000. I'm a full-time paramedic student and I needed it to power my Starlink and tablet while working on a pipeline in the rockies. I also loved being able to continuously charge it with solar so I wouldn't have to idle my work for hours or bring it in every night to charge.
Can you actually charge it up fully while on solar? If yes, how long does it take?
that's bs
@@tiagoviana263 you can charge it on solar alone in a day, but I don't know how long it takes. I had the solar plugged in all day to prolong use because it wouldn't last me a full 12 hours. I had to plug it into the truck when I ran the AC and while driving in and out of site.

If the objective was to waste money on a computer they should've just bought a Mac
But actually, what is the most expensive Mac pro!?

@sandmaster4444 all the friends who snickered at the misalignment of cost and use case and actual products along the way. Thats the true cost of a Mac. Okay that one didn't work that well....
Not sure exactly what the point was of including a Mac in the build
said no Mac user ever!
I find it funny how often the most expensive option isn't the highest performance one.
threadrippers are still available on newegg
Its because they built it Badly on purpose to highlight the stupidity of buying expensive parts expecting high performance.
They didnt put the ssd in raid, overclocking badly drops performance, not using the whole quad channel RAM was stupid (clock speed is useless VS bandwidth) and so on.
Im quite surprised Linus was able to hold 43.5kg worth of computer and not even drop it :)
did you see his muscles , he would be easily doing 70 lbs dumbelss for curls
I was hauling a 85” tv the other day and at 50kg it seemed so heavy but it’s actually all down to the size and shape of the object and the surface area with which you have to grip. I don’t think that rig would be too heavy to hold for a minute or two.
All those hoses and fittings, makes it look like 80's anime technology.
In my opinion this compensator build shouldn't be about the most expensive parts but rather about the best parts you can get no matter how much it costs.
Same, break the FPS, not the bank. Else all you have to do is go roll out old HEDT and because MBs are the big failure point long term, a new MB for that is stupid expensive. $1200 for the MB, $1000 (new price, but there are ones that are/where more) for the CPU. 5-6 gen old hardware and the performance is now meh.
But that's not quite in the spirit of compensation, no?
i dont think you understand the concept of this ....
Trueee
I love that case. Der8uer reviewed the first version of this case and it bombed cooling wise. Then the company sent him that version of the case that addressed all of his concerns about the first and it rocked cooling wise. It’s a German company and the case is manufactured in Germany 🇩🇪.
They need an award for customer service.
The first thing this setup can compensate for is the lack of heating in the owner's room 😂

This one probably needed to get out prior to the embargo lift on Threadripper 7000 so that it's not a waste of a video (based on the comments at the beginning of this video). It's clear that this was shot even before Intel 14th gen was released.

I've been using the Mountain Everest as my daily driver for about a year now, for someone who's only *moderately* into keyboards it's amazing, if you want a really nice keyboard and never want to have to think about it again i'd definitely recommend it!
Fun-fact: when you live in Gerolstein, the tap water is pretty much the same water they use to "make" Gerolsteiner. And Gerolsteiner is like 0,7€ a liter in Germany.
I think a cool video idea would be to build the best PC for the cost of each component on this PC.
Like build a computer for the cost of just the processor, the motherboard, PC case etc. So for the motherboard PC you would have 1200$ .
It would be really cool to see how many PCs and what specs you could get out of them for the cost of each individual components.
Or the best PC achievable - even if it's not the most expensive.
Thank you linus I’ve always loved the compensator videos and your videos have always lifted me up whenever I feel sad. Much love ❤️
26:00 i just love the idea of a ”starter kit” being the most expensive part on the market 😂
If it is a true compensator, I believe you are obligated to purchase the newest and greatest thing (threadripper) when it comes out and everything required to upgrade to it.
Yes please!
As interesting as that might be, I'm pretty sure they're gonna wait at least a year to make another one of these.
7:50 - I still feel like the ideal setup for a PC Peltier (TEC) cooler is to run your loop: CPU > Radiator > Peltier cold-side (with it's own separate cooling loop and radiator for the hot-side) > CPU.
That way the first radiator brings your coolant down closer to ambient, and then the Peltier cools it below ambient. The other advantage being that the Peltier never acts as an insulator and your system can still run even if it fails or can't keep up. Not sure what EK was thinking with this setup.
That would be even dumber. The peltier module would freeze the water in the tubes.
@@ErnieZee 1) Use a coolant that has a lower freezing point than water 2) Use a temperature control so the Peltier only turns on when needed. Sub-ambient ≠ sub-zero unless you're outside on a freezing day for some reason.
I have been theory crafting about a system with a big reservoir and multiple loops.
1. reservoir > cpu > radiator > reservoir
2. reservoir > gpu > radiator > reservoir
3. reservoir > peltier cold side > reservoir
4. radiator > peltier hot sidd > rafiator
This way you never have the downsides of the limits and insulating effect of the peltier because it is basically a normal system. The peltier just cools your reservoir aditionally.
only downside is you have to insulate all the tubes and the reservoir if you plan to cool below the dew point.
This cooler would work perfectly fine even with a 7950x3D. The trick is not having a microwave for a CPU.
@@Enderplays12 For sure, if you throw strong enough TECs on it, you could make a setup like this work on any CPU, but it's still incredibly inefficient (on top of the inherent inefficiencies of TECs in general) and prone to unexpected failures.
TECs have a limit to the amount of heat differential they can move (usually 20-40 degrees C), so the closer you can get a loop to ambient before introducing the TEC, the better sub-ambient cooling effect they will have. Without that, you start hitting thermal saturation points on the hot-side of the TECs and the they become a net-negative on performance.
Tech entertainment truly is a niche that's totally being filled and stretched by Linus and LTT. Not everything has to be dead serious. 😊

My first thought when they added the carbonated water was that the carbonic acid in it can be corrosive, depending on what materials it comes into contact with.
My brain is still in sleepy mode, but AFAIK carbonated water isn't acidic off the bat? It can become acidic depending on the material it touches, which I think most of the material in that system is PETG tubing and aluminum.
@@NarutoMagicCyclops all carbonated water naturally produces carbonic acid in small amounts. It's what gives sparkling water its horrible taste that some people seem to enjoy.

I almost had an aneurysm when they started putting sparkling mineral water in the pump. Literally, all of that segment had me clenching lol
Ok, the sparkling mineral water was silly, but otherwise, the system is really impressive. Kinda sad that such an expensive cooling setup is still outdone by more traditional water cooling, for half the price. Seems thermoelectric cooling tech just isn't there yet. Fun an interesting build, and very jealous of that monitor.
Oh it can Be !! No one here has seen what is Really is possible with Tecs! You can run them in Layered Stages,but nobody has done that here cause it would go Sub-Zero. Tecs take ALOT of Power to run ! They can be power Hogs if you want Large performance. They have very tiny ones too ! Why did you think Linus made that Hand gesture about anything BUT Gaming,cause it's hard to control Tecs,they like to be ON or OFF! Not in between or low voltage,they don't do $#!T !
