The retro case sleepers are by far the coolest builds in my opinion. Gratuitous RGB lighting and tempered glass panels are played out in my opinion and I’ve only been into this stuff for like 8 months. I just built my very first PC at the beginning of the year and I’m 100% determined to move into a sleeper case as soon as it’s time to upgrade either my CPU or GPU. I’m handy enough to do some case modifications - I just wish I could find a way to fit my 34” curved ultrawide monitor into a retro housing but clearly that isn’t happening.
The one with all the pipe bends on his "first attempt", I guarantee he is an electrician. They bend pipes all day, so something like that would be nothing to them.
@@AlMcpherson79 yep, they bend pipe to use as electrical conduit for running wires. Some of them do that all day, every day. I used to do the same as an automation controls tech, but the ones who were really good at it were always the electricians. That being said, I guess you are implying that a plumber would be a more obvious answer. If so, fair enough, and you may be right... but maybe not.
Seeing most of those setups definetly made me realize... to never upload my mediocre looking PC. Always start with the best ideas in mind and always end up rushing the last bit because I simply run out of time and I need this system every day for work related stuff so I end up cutting corners and losing patience. But next time I will do it better! (I tell myself that everyyyy time lol)
Unless you already have a good customisable case with plenty of room and air flow, than next time start with a new case, you won't need to dismantle the old one and you can spend more of your free time setting it up correctly, place the mobo, the CPU, the GPU and than the cooling, the lights, the aesthetics and everything that is new else first, than move whatever over from your old PC and install.

We all need to stop buying stuff from CHHHHIIINA
I've been building computers since around 1990 and only felt confident in the quality of commercially available water cooling hardware to give it a go for my most recent build and like that guy towards the end, I didn't mess around and went straight for a dual radiator (360mm + 280mm), Acrylic 14mm tubing, compression fittings, dual DDC-1T PWM 10w pumps (thank you Martin's Liquid Lab), GPU + CPU blocks from Aquacomputer, Watercool Dual DDC housing, Barrow Res, and an Aquaero 6LT with flow meter and multiple temp sensors. I found the most difficult part was my impatience where i wouldn't heat the acrylic long enough and over enough of the tube to get the bends right at first. And as i'm sure you know, Acrylic doesn't like to be re-heated. I did the whole loop without using any directional fittings. All bends were done with tubing, two of which have 4 bends in them. Pro Tip (from non-pro): Buy at least 2x the amount of acrylic tubing as you think you'll need if you've never done this before. You can thank me later.
I upgraded from a 970 to a 1080 just around when the 20x was being released and just after the bitmining stuff stopped making gpu's five times the price they're supposed to be. Considering that I dont do anything heavier than say, Euro Truck Simulator or Cities Skylines (which is more about the RAM), this is not that much of an issue. ... and I have a three screen for triple-HD, one of which is a 120hz monitor too.
21:50 I like having a lot of RAM. it means I don't constantly have to turn things on/off as I'm using them. With a 3th gen Ryzen it can run that background noise easily. So it's just more convenient to have it there.
as someone who hangs TVs for a living, you couldnt be more wrong about mounting above fireplaces. They are VERY easy to do, and fishing those walls are easy AF.

I think the pcb has changed enough that it would would with modification but you'd be a lot better of with a custom block if you really want to watercool.
@@claytoony891 You build an impressive or modern system in a unimpressive beige or old case. It looks like a computer from the 90s but performs like a beast
I'll give you guys a hint on this tubing deal. 1/2 tubing has a 6" take-up on radius. What that means is if you need the back of a 90 degree bend at 12" on the tubing mark your bend 6" back and bend it. Also for offsets at 30 degrees the multiplier is 2.. so the offsets or as you called it a really hard double bend, say you need them 4" apart, 2x4=8 so you need to have 8" between the two bends for them to work out properly.. This is one advantage of spending more than a decade as an industrial electrician running conduits and such.

I have a reg 980. But theres a difference. Parts of my pc are ancient. The Motherboard, processor, RAM, and hard drives have never been changed, and this things 12 years old. All that's changed is the video card, the case, fans, and the water cooler. Along with an added SSD That's it. My RAMs back when 2 gb each was the best you could get, and im not even sure if its DDR3
LOL, that ancient egyptian, no wait. That is the extendable coffee holder. And here when I went looking for my new case for my latest build last December I required it to have space for one of those because some of the games I own and still play I only have on DVD. *Edit* System at 21:15 has no power cables at all. Wow!
you are talking about we have to upgrade our PSU, well Optimum Tech uploaded a video a few days ago where he stated that 600watts PSU was more than enough. Can you confirm this or dismantle this subject? I'm interested in getting more knowledge about this since we are alot of people having a mini itx build and most of ours PSUs are 600watts gold or plat.
600 watts will more than likely be enough but you will definitely be running outside of the efficiency curve on most mid tier PSU's and definitely do not run an overclock on both your cpu and GPU (assuming you have a same tier cpu) and have them both pinned at 100% utilization.
I reckon Jay or anyone that's having issues with seemingly overkill PSUs are daisy chaining their 8-pin cables. Most AIBs and sellers are instructing to use 2x 8-pin cables instead of a daisy chained one. With 3 pin cards using 1x 8 pin on the far left with a daisy chained for the other 2 being fine. Obviously there might be duds among 3080s but seeing as how daisy chaining wasn't an issue before, I have a hunch that many people are doing it unintentionally.
it depends on the rest of your rig as well. if you've got an 8 or more core cpu, 16gb or 32gb of ram, aio cooler or air cooler? all those things increase the total power consumption of the rig. if you've got air cooling on the cpu and not overclocking, only 16gb of ram, minimal rgb (if any), then you should be fine. but if you overclock the cpu, have 32gb of ram, lots of rgb, aio cooler, 3+ storage drives, then i'd say 750w is where you need to be at least.
you can also check out the website www.powersupplycalculator.net. input your system info and itll give you a good estimate of your total power consumption in your pc as of now. then do some math and find out if the new gfx cards will be too much for you

The one with all the pipe bends on his "first attempt", I guarantee he is an electrician. They bend pipes all day, so something like that would be nothing to them.
... Electrician? ... Are you Positive?
@@AlMcpherson79 yep, they bend pipe to use as electrical conduit for running wires. Some of them do that all day, every day. I used to do the same as an automation controls tech, but the ones who were really good at it were always the electricians.

Unless you already have a good customisable case with plenty of room and air flow, than next time start with a new case, you won't need to dismantle the old one and you can spend more of your free time setting it up correctly, place the mobo, the CPU, the GPU and than the cooling, the lights, the aesthetics and everything that is new else first, than move whatever over from your old PC and install.

Yea the blue and pink retro theme is my favorite my whole room and setup is based on this theme and minimalisticity which is the best thing ever
I've been building computers since around 1990 and only felt confident in the quality of commercially available water cooling hardware to give it a go for my most recent build and like that guy towards the end, I didn't mess around and went straight for a dual radiator (360mm + 280mm), Acrylic 14mm tubing, compression fittings, dual DDC-1T PWM 10w pumps (thank you Martin's Liquid Lab), GPU + CPU blocks from Aquacomputer, Watercool Dual DDC housing, Barrow Res, and an Aquaero 6LT with flow meter and multiple temp sensors.
I found the most difficult part was my impatience where i wouldn't heat the acrylic long enough and over enough of the tube to get the bends right at first. And as i'm sure you know, Acrylic doesn't like to be re-heated. I did the whole loop without using any directional fittings. All bends were done with tubing, two of which have 4 bends in them.
Pro Tip (from non-pro): Buy at least 2x the amount of acrylic tubing as you think you'll need if you've never done this before. You can thank me later.

Me watching this with my 8 year old mediocre prebuilt and hearing jay say “time for an upgrade” to dual 980 ti’s 😭😢
I upgraded from a 970 to a 1080 just around when the 20x was being released and just after the bitmining stuff stopped making gpu's five times the price they're supposed to be. Considering that I dont do anything heavier than say, Euro Truck Simulator or Cities Skylines (which is more about the RAM), this is not that much of an issue. ... and I have a three screen for triple-HD, one of which is a 120hz monitor too.

Jay, if you’re familiar with it, I’d LOVE to know if a Kraken G12 would fit a 3080. I don’t expect the FE to, but who knows
I have a g12 and I'd be more concerned about it being able to provide enough cooling to all the components, even if it fit
I think the pcb has changed enough that it would would with modification but you'd be a lot better of with a custom block if you really want to watercool.

That sleeper build is incredible
whats a sleeper build
@@claytoony891 You build an impressive or modern system in a unimpressive beige or old case. It looks like a computer from the 90s but performs like a beast
The outside looks outdated so someone seeing the front would sleep on it aka ignore it, therefore giving it the name sleeper.
i love these vids, its so funny to see other ppls setups
and then look how much better they are to mine
Same
I'll give you guys a hint on this tubing deal. 1/2 tubing has a 6" take-up on radius. What that means is if you need the back of a 90 degree bend at 12" on the tubing mark your bend 6" back and bend it. Also for offsets at 30 degrees the multiplier is 2.. so the offsets or as you called it a really hard double bend, say you need them 4" apart, 2x4=8 so you need to have 8" between the two bends for them to work out properly.. This is one advantage of spending more than a decade as an industrial electrician running conduits and such.
That white on black is more my style, love the cleanliness and where he took the build. BRAVO!!

Wow!
you are talking about we have to upgrade our PSU, well Optimum Tech uploaded a video a few days ago where he stated that 600watts PSU was more than enough. Can you confirm this or dismantle this subject? I'm interested in getting more knowledge about this since we are alot of people having a mini itx build and most of ours PSUs are 600watts gold or plat.
600 watts will more than likely be enough but you will definitely be running outside of the efficiency curve on most mid tier PSU's and definitely do not run an overclock on both your cpu and GPU (assuming you have a same tier cpu) and have them both pinned at 100% utilization.
I reckon Jay or anyone that's having issues with seemingly overkill PSUs are daisy chaining their 8-pin cables.
Most AIBs and sellers are instructing to use 2x 8-pin cables instead of a daisy chained one. With 3 pin cards using 1x 8 pin on the far left with a daisy chained for the other 2 being fine.
Obviously there might be duds among 3080s but seeing as how daisy chaining wasn't an issue before, I have a hunch that many people are doing it unintentionally.
it depends on the rest of your rig as well. if you've got an 8 or more core cpu, 16gb or 32gb of ram, aio cooler or air cooler? all those things increase the total power consumption of the rig. if you've got air cooling on the cpu and not overclocking, only 16gb of ram, minimal rgb (if any), then you should be fine. but if you overclock the cpu, have 32gb of ram, lots of rgb, aio cooler, 3+ storage drives, then i'd say 750w is where you need to be at least.
you can also check out the website www.powersupplycalculator.net. input your system info and itll give you a good estimate of your total power consumption in your pc as of now. then do some math and find out if the new gfx cards will be too much for you
