The uniform pull thing (The Picard maneuver) didn't start in the beginning. The first uniforms were a single piece with elastic pulling all the way from the shoulders to the feet to keep everything nice and smooth. The tension from the elastic was causing Patrick Stewart lots of back issues and he fought hard to stop using them. They got new uniforms starting in the second season without the elastic but that meant they bunched up when going between sitting and standing. Stewart would do the tug to flatten it out so it had clean lines (which is what the elastic was doing originally).
that is absoloutly amazing! not your tiresome facts, i am referring to the fact that you thought everybody would care to hear your pointless facts. that is amazing. you boring sod. it amazes me that you really thought people would care to hear such pointless star trek twattery.
It was frakes who ended up with back problems and it is why he adopted the signature pose as it took pressure off his back. Of course that doesn't mean it didn't hurt others backs, but frakes was perhaps the worst.
@@thomasjamesstarks8338 Yeah i saw that, however i might just build one myself instead and 3D print the outer aesthetics and solder some dirt cheap green LED's in it, 500 dollars for a case feels a bit pricey for me.
Someone actually designed something like this as case for the Bambu Lab 3d Printer P1P. Just Google Part 1 - Borg Cube P1P Mod You could probably adapt it for a PC cases
2:14:48 -NAS "drive not detected" error tips I have seen (in my limited experience) that used enterprise drives can be sold by inexperienced resellers without being wiped and decrypted and it can cause all kinds of issues. I think it was Seagate constellation drives with SED (Self encrypting drive) tech the last time I saw it happen. There was a tool you could use to decrpyt them and then be able to format them properly. That may be why a simple format doesnt get it working but using a tool to completely strip the drive would work. Hopefully that helps!
How did I miss this stream? As a Trekie, I would have loved to seen this live. If I had the money, i would buy that Borg case immediately but, in its original Black and Green colors. Maybe program a Rasberry Pi, to play sounds of the Borg....
A short piece of heat shrink tubing works really well to hold RGB cables together (the size of the connectors, of course, not the wires) and it looks much better than tape.
Cool, I'll do just that. I am happy for Patrick Stewart that it doesn't seem to end in fiasco. (Meanwhile hoping that Starfleet Academy won't be a clueless teen drama 😬).
I was born the year next generation aired. As a fan of Star Trek since I was basically a baby? It's a little bit blossomous to see a Borg cube in white. But this is quite possible one of my favorite LTT videos ever lol
Regarding the talk at around 17:30, my case is close to 20 years old and my GPU fits in it quite nicely (it's a 5700 XT). Also, my power supply is 13-ish years old, so not quite 15, but close, it's modular, it has PCIe connectors, an efficiency certificate (although it's just 80+ Bronze)...
When I saw the video's title I immediately thought of the Borg from Star Trek. You can't imagine my joy when I realized it actually was about the Borg from Star Trek. Edit: To all clowns: The thumbnail was added AFTER the livestream finished!
There used to be a company called Everex that made a grey Borg Cube looking 386 PC. Huge # of add in cards, huge memory boards for the time, and tons of hard disk slots. It even had a nice sliding door to hide the floppy drives.
Don't remember the Borg case they made, but I remember buying a used Everex Step 386 pc in the mid nineties for my now wife as her first computer. I actually still have the original IDE 40 MB hard drive from that old computer with Windows 3.1 on it packed up, lol.
Regarding rack cases for gaming, I put a MSI MEG z690 ACE, i9-12900k, Noctua NH-C14S and GTX 1080 Hybrid in a Silverstone RM42-502. No regerts! Could probably boost a little higher with an AIO, but temps are definitely under control @ ~40C idle.
Regarding the 7.1 audio out, I'm actually currently using 5.1 analog out to my ancient Logitech Z-5500 surround system that I use as PC speakers. They're "good enough" still, and the metal volume knob is something else.
Here's a case from 2006 that still works, no mods needed: LIAN LI PC-7B plus II I'm *still* rocking it over 15 years later. I actually wish it had one more 5.25 bay, so I could use another HDD enclosure in it.
yeah ANDOR has reinvented star wars.... its nostalgic yet... its like star wars finally grew up with us and learned how to really ground itself and tell an amazing story in an amazing world that constantly gives you its own feeling and vibe when you watch, and it feels good. greatest star wars piece of media ever if we gonna be honest and it finally expands on a world that has so much depth to explore
Well as a Graphic Designer who went through nine semesters of design school to get a degree and has been drawing since she was five I can tell you it does not come easy. Like every skill it takes a lot of practice and experience, that is what makes it look simple and easy. My mind is blown when I see Linus just pops in a CPU. Every time I ever built a system I sweated bullets over not damaging any pins. So there is that. ;)
For reliable, 25 years ago I bought a 2.1 Logitech speaker system, far from cheap back then but pretty solid speakers in plastic laminated wood. They are still going strong. A pretty beefy base unit on them too.
i have to agree that the Noctua coolers are pretty big, but worth it. you would be fairly hard pressed to find a cooler that has the same performance, same quietness, and same price as the DH-15. its not impossible, but hard enough that you may as well go with the name brand anyway which in this case is Noctua
Your black wash is most likely to thin. Sometimes you just have to add a little more paint and try it on a test piece and then add a little bit more until you have a result you want. Also black washing that much surface area is going to take longer than you might want for video to get right. Some time you also have to do 3 or 4 layers to look good.
it also doesnt work very well on super smooth stuff unless you get it just right (like professional skill). As for the size of the work area, you can put it in a spray bottle and just keep spritzing it letting it build up in all the crevice then wipe it down. But a good rule of thumb I think would be the smoother the surface the thicker your wash needs to be and the rougher/more porous the surface the thinner it can be depending on what kind of effect you want. Also if you need to use it really thick its fine because you can literally wet it down then wipe :) Weathering is a pretty cool process, I learned a lot of it watching adam savage
*PRO TIP* Well Adam Savage doesn't know that a few light coats of adhesion promoter 3 minutes apart and within 10 minutes u can easily apply to even the smoothest of surfaces ..
@@DavidDiaz-zp4hu I think he uses some kind of clear coat to make it sticky if I remember right. But he also likes using that hair higher stuff which honestly probably would work well here because how someone mentioned the lights.
@@jareds8729 If I where to do this project. I would not just spay the whole thing in bulk. I would do small sections at a time with a brush being mindful of the location of the fiber optics. You can't anyway with the paint the right consistency the paint would dry before your finished. This is how real prop makers do it. Though I would have an advantage, I wouldn't have a deadline and a director breathing down my neck :).
HA! Awesome! As a Trekkie, this speaks to me! Love the uniform! Best gen Star Trek ever, not a fan of the white case, shoulda been black with green, now THAT would be a Borg cube.
I had the exact same problem with mine. Couldn't even test with the onboard because I was using a 14700kf. I ended up returning and getting a dark hero instead and eventually got it to work on hdmi, used the windows key+shift +d reset or whatever it is and finally display port worked from there on the dark hero.
There are a lot of things that didn't work in one vidio lol but I think the video was brilliant. The best pc building video iv seen to date when things don't have problems, then it's boring, and seeing something that can happen a lot more than anyone really admits cool video. Thank you.
amd stock fan mounting for am2 came out in 2006 so if you got an amd cpu cooler factory/ aftermarket with the 2 point clip it will work all the way to the current am5 motherboards thats 17 years
2:07:45 I wish the front panel things were all standardized into a single plug. Well especially the power sw+led, reset sw, hdd led, pc beeper (if available).
Watching the cable management and all I can think is that some of the tricks and methods from the early-mid 00s could actually fit a Borg cube theme. For example, the corrugated plastic split wire loom would actually fit. Heck, I saw computers back then with those plasma lights and a green one is actually in a Borg cube. Cases are so much better now, but a part of me does miss the creativity required in those early gaming builds.
Regarding the water bottle, I have Hydroflask bottles which are vacuum sealed and dishwasher safe. At least Hydroflask says they are dishwasher safe. So there must be alternative manufacturing techniques which can handle the temperature fluctuation. Maybe LTT could partner with Hydroflask to sell a dishwasher safe bottle!
For the HDD in question, you need SGformat, I am betting the sector size is not 512 but insted 518 or some other weird value used by some systems for in sector error correction data
Hey, I still use my awesome, 20-year-old, Logitech Z series THX 5.1 surround sound system. I need those audio ports. Any board that doesn't have them is a deal breaker. Until a system that sounds better comes along. 5.1 on the back of the board is a must! MSI MAG Z790 Max has them, as well as a bios reset button, bios flash back, CPU-less flashing, MSI light load bios feature, best bang for the buck board for the 14900K I've come across. I've tried nearly anything worth its salt.
I have multiple vacuum sealed water bottles that are dishwasher safe so apparently you didn't look hard enough. They have all been through the dishwasher multiple times and still work the way they're supposed to. ThermoFlask if you were wondering.
@@Thesaltiestofsandys Maybe go back and reread what I said they have all been put through the dishwasher and all still work exactly the same as when I bought them meaning 24 hours cold 12 hours hot just as it says on the box.
@@whyidontwant2723 glad cold and hot is a measurement.... Not what I asked. Gave you the benefit of doubt that you're comment wasn't actually meant to be condescending but I guess I should have went with my first assumption since I was actually asking an actual question since I don't own their write my water bottle.
@@Thesaltiestofsandys You say that, yet your response sounds extremely condescending. I answered you to the best of my ability and was not condescending in my response or in my original message. I even say the name of the brand in my original message, so I don't know what your problem is.
Color it Black and the light in a morphing Green then its accutate. I not know what this case cost, but i would made it like the Original, who was made by using Revel modelkit Parts in Layers. this case is much to smoth. I just would recomend an Acryl cover over it to made it more easty to clean Dust.
I love how despite not being a Star Trek fan, he puts on the shirt and instantly does the "Picard Maneuver", pulling down on the bottom of his shirt. I bought CherryTree's other Star Trek Case, a more standard case that has tempered glass front and side panels, and an interchangeable acrylic LED-Lit Star Trek graphic on the front. I highly recommend it for any Star Trek fan that doesn't have the money for the Cube. The only complaint I have with them is that I bought their "House Branded" case fans, (really just cheap UpHere RGB fans with CherryTree sitckers on them). The Red and Black CherryTree logo clashes with the look of the system, and the fans themselves are very loud. If you do order a case from them, spring for the better fan options, or supply your own.
@@jeff119990 it might be a decent case but it's a ripoff cause they're pretending it's a Borg Cube and marketing it as one when it's 180 degrees diametrically the exact opposite of a Borg Cube
@@jeff119990 Yeah, I can see that being a problem too. Though the middle support bar for hard drive mounting can be removed, that should make getting the power supply in easier.
For clearing a hard drive so it will be detected you can load a Linux live cd/USB. Go through the install to the point where it asks about the hard drive to install to. Select manual configuration. Remove all partitions. Write changes. Then back out of the install / turn it off.
@@EssxEnergy the shirt pulling down technique is referred to as a Picard maneuver. A Riker maneuver would be the stepping over a chair to avoid bending over, which is something Jonathan Frakes started doing because he was also having back problems in the early seasons.
I miss cube PCs. I have a Thermaltake Core V21, used it for a long time and I love this case. The option to position the mainboard vertically would make even more sense in a modern PC with super heavy GPUs. I mean... most servers and mining rigs go for vertical mainboards for a good reason. And all the cooling area protected by actually good magnetic dust mesh. Sadly I need something that fits at least a full ATX, because I'm going for dual GPU on my next deeplearning workstation. Would love to go for a (bigger) cube or vertical cube-ish case again. But there aren't any with modern tooling that fit a modern system and offer good modularity or convenience. I can't even find any modern case with easy to remove external dust mesh which was one of the most convenient features introduced in the last 10 years...
You know, this thing is pretty cool looking (if it was the dark grey/black with green lights) and would be something i would consider getting as a huge Trek fan, ... but the pricing just KILLS it sadly!
Thats the way I feel about it. Since it has no front audio, no USB at all, and as Linus pointed out: looks like 3d printed surface wielded together, the price for it just simply is not a justifiable expense. But then, I'm a huge Trek fan and would get this just cause anyways.
I prefer inch standard over metric. I am a Machinist/CNC Programmer (Subsafe Submarine/Oil and Gas industries) by trade and I find myself enjoying conversations from Fractions to Decimals to Metric. Keeps my arithmetic skills up to snuff. On another note Fahrenheit is superior over Celsius due to the fine increments when compared to Celsius. 😅
That's a good fact about the shirt (I was the one with that merch message). Eventually the internet called it The Picard Maneuver even though there was an in-show space ship move called the same. And Riker putting his leg over the chair to sit down is The Riker Maneuver.
I remember when I first tryed vr two years ago and I was blown away but after a couple months I had so many problems with the headset. This headset is the reason I’m getting back into vr
Six minutes in and Linus has already cracked the decorative casing - what I have come to enjoy and expect about viewing recorded live stream VODs from Linus and Linus Teh Tips - keep being you Linus!! :)
1:57:25 hey Linus, if an artist shows you how to draw something, ask them if you should change how you’re holding the pencil. Usually a person’s writing grip is stiff. You can always practice by drawing with your kids.
I have been wanting one of these Cases from Cherry Tree for a while now. I am a BORG NERD!!! Most, if not all of my electronics in my home have a Borg Drone designation. My network is a Unimatrix. My server is a Central Plexus. All of my hard drives are labeled as Data Nodes. I would LOVE to replace the case of my personal rig with one of these ATX cases. I just cant afford $500 USD right now
Just mailed Thermalright to get an AM5 mount (that's not for sale yet) for my HR-02 Rev. B from 2008. I'm not complaining about GPU form factors as long as I'm still rocking that chunky boi.
Borg cube's are black with green accent lighting not white with RGB colours who ever made this case wants to make trek case's but lack the most basic knowledge of the shows and movies 😢
@@xp7575 yes it's garbage 🤣 but it's supposed to be a prototype product of a Borg cube lolol it's not even close lol 😂 just an excuse to charge top dollar for crap.. 😡
I just completed my first build and you were with me every step of the way haha. I watched youtube the whooole time for help. RTX 4070ti with a Ryzen 7 7800x3D. Thing is a beast!
I remember the borg cube being black with green lighting, not a rainbow spectrum of lights. Maybe they should include a light that is a cone shape like the tractor beam.
I ran optical cable in lengths of over 30ft quite a bit when I was doing part-time work for a Home Theatre contractor. I'll never understand why people want to put components of a single home theatre on opposite sides of a house.
I really appreciate you advocating for people to be safe and make appropriate decisions over promoting them to buy your product. IE the jacket for motorcycle riding.
Case needs a bunch of empty plastic model kit frames glued to the outside, a 40k-style weathering pattern, then the RGB locked into a poison green. With that, love that the Borg have embraced RGB!
that borg cube needs a BORG Sphere to be fitted in the window side, set right in so it is coming out or have a screen in there so its running a clip of the sphere is coming out of the cube...
I'm actually modding a Thermaltake Core V21 into a Borg themed computer, complete with miniature regeneration chambers on the inside. I had no idea this was a thing.
I run a 5.1 surround sound off those jacks, it's way cheaper than having to buy another amp, works for Dolby atmos for headphones, put your- stereo mix to (listen down the 5.1 surround sound) for music and standard desktop apps to actually use all 5 speakers correctly. When launching bluerays or some movie apps you get true surround sound, (kodi is great) Its a shame you cant run dolby atmos down the jacks though... that would be the only benefit of foorking out £$1k+ of cash on an surround sound amplifier
Overclocking AMD -> enable PBO and CO -> get almost the same overclock as you would get manually after many hours. It is not fun, but it works well, I just lower the automatically generated CO values by 2-3 just to be safe.
optical prevents ground interference from moving between devices which is a great way to fix those "why does it make this sound sometimes" issues that most people never solve.
Regarding the comment about DW safe water bottles, check into what makes Yeti branded drinkware different. They are stainless construction vacuum insulated, but dishwasher safe.
I mounted my "modern" PC (7th gen i7, RTX 2080) into my 2009 cooler master case. Not the best air flow or space but the panels still closed up so you could make an argument that you can use PC cases from 15 years ago. Should mention that my motherboard is ATX too
I know I'm late, but the trick to using a black wash is a little dish detergent in the wash. Acrylic paints, water, and small amount of dish detergent.
@1:23:39 don't get a litter robot get a petkit pura max. I've never had a problem with tare, I've never had to scoop, in over a year, just take the trash bag out every 10 days, 1 cat. Just like my old one, I do fully clean it once a quarter.
2:21:15 One of my aunts actually have this as "mood light" installed in their bathroom ceiling. They obviously have regular lights in there as well, but that's gotta be cool for when you're just soaking in the tub!
Ok Guys. I NEVER comment on a TH-cam post. 😂😂😂😂. This has been one of the most incredible TH-cam videos that I’ve seen in probably five years plus. You guys did incredible job of covering the topic which is interesting. I think the case is incredible. (In concept). However, it’s when the R2-D2 paint moment when you both are seemingly beaten and the paint step hits. I haven’t laughed so hard, felt so much like I was in a shop with some old friends doing what I love and just been actually entertained while learning a ton; well since I can remember at least. Incredible old school TH-cam ACTUALLY REAL deal feature here guys. Thank you!👌🏻
For the average person Im sure metric is great, but for trades and fabrication its very nice to use a base 12 system. Much easier to divide into smaller systems. 1/2,1/4,1/8, ect vs. .5,.25,.125. also Fahrenheit is just better for how people feel heat. Celsius is how water feels heat and kelvin is how atoms feel hear
The Borg cube was black with green lights. This feels like people that never saw any trek series set together a Borg Cube pc, without knowing what one is. Only because the cool kids like Star Trek.
I think you was worried about the wrong things. Borg cubs had a lot of junk looking pipes and wires in their cubs. So if that case looked a little or even a lot mess it would be Borg like. Not like Star Tek designs.
Redshirt Linus. 17:20 BTW, Linus is wrong about when PCIe power connectors became a thing. 6-pin connectors were introduced in 2005, which is more than 15 years ago. ATX 2.1. Also, there's an actual benefit to Toslink as opposed to SPDIF. You can eliminate ground level weirdness if you don't have grounded outlets.

@@Phooenixification Don't be such a tightwad.. What're u savin up to be, Jewish ??
Also Agree. Not sure what they were thinking with it white?
Someone actually designed something like this as case for the Bambu Lab 3d Printer P1P. Just Google Part 1 - Borg Cube P1P Mod
You could probably adapt it for a PC cases
They probably use an Intel CPU because it's very hot (39.1°C air temperature) inside Borg cubes.
teh new AMD cpu arent cool either.
Let me be the first comment to state : I actually got your reference! But I don't remember the specific air composition at the moment.
And 92% humidity. Steamy !
2:14:48 -NAS "drive not detected" error tips
I have seen (in my limited experience) that used enterprise drives can be sold by inexperienced resellers without being wiped and decrypted and it can cause all kinds of issues. I think it was Seagate constellation drives with SED (Self encrypting drive) tech the last time I saw it happen. There was a tool you could use to decrpyt them and then be able to format them properly. That may be why a simple format doesnt get it working but using a tool to completely strip the drive would work. Hopefully that helps!
Having been a Star Trek fan for about 30 years I love this. This is very cool and I am so happy you guys did this. Star Trek doesnt get enough love.
it dont really get much love in the merch dept
How did I miss this stream? As a Trekie, I would have loved to seen this live. If I had the money, i would buy that Borg case immediately but, in its original Black and Green colors. Maybe program a Rasberry Pi, to play sounds of the Borg....
A short piece of heat shrink tubing works really well to hold RGB cables together (the size of the connectors, of course, not the wires) and it looks much better than tape.
there's just some people I enjoy watching doing their thing and hear em talk. Alex is once such person
The only real issue with the case, for those who'd be willing, I think is the flexible and brittle plastic as demonstrated early on. That's not cool.
It seems to be a prototype
And the fact that it's white instead of black
They literally say prototype within the first 2 minutes but apparently some of you just can't listen LMFAO
plus they should have used a black case with a black panel on the back and green fiber lighting. That would have been much better
@@MrTurnermason yeah, it could have been a Star Trek Borg Cube then instead of being just a box
I use the fiber optic digital audio out exclusively. Best Feature ever. I know alot of people don't use it. I do and I avoid motherboards without it.
Star Trek: Picard's final episode drops tomorrow! 🖖 Can't wait how the old Enterprise-D will do against the Borg.
I have avoided this series, should I watch third season only, or how to go about it? 🖖
@@mellertid basically yes.

Cool, I'll do just that. I am happy for Patrick Stewart that it doesn't seem to end in fiasco. (Meanwhile hoping that Starfleet Academy won't be a clueless teen drama 😬).
It's a Borg cube. It should be painted dark green (almost black) and be weathered looking, but other than that it's very cool.
I'd expect some green plasma panels (round light things above Borg alcoves) rather than tons of RGB light so cliché in ALL gaming PC's.
Can I just say that Linus looks really good in the starfleet uniform.
And the black Borg Cube looks ridiculous white
It does actually suit him somewhat.
looks better than that obese rapper lizzo in str wars
It's also funny that it had a zipper, Gene Roddenberry would have thrown a fit.
That's not a Starfleet Officer issue aparal, STOLEN VALOR !!!!

I was born the year next generation aired. As a fan of Star Trek since I was basically a baby? It's a little bit blossomous to see a Borg cube in white. But this is quite possible one of my favorite LTT videos ever lol
Ha ha you mean 'blasphemous'?
@@wemartin12 Google speech dictation butchered my comment lololol
Regarding the talk at around 17:30, my case is close to 20 years old and my GPU fits in it quite nicely (it's a 5700 XT). Also, my power supply is 13-ish years old, so not quite 15, but close, it's modular, it has PCIe connectors, an efficiency certificate (although it's just 80+ Bronze)...
When I saw the video's title I immediately thought of the Borg from Star Trek. You can't imagine my joy when I realized it actually was about the Borg from Star Trek.
Edit: To all clowns: The thumbnail was added AFTER the livestream finished!
It said Star Trek in the thumbnail
The thumbnail is literally a borg cube. How did you miss that.
When I realized it was a borg cube. I also remembered how big of a nerd I am.
This is NOT a Borg Cube, it's literally the exact opposite of how a Borg Cube actually looks 😂
@@xp7575 it's just white instead of black like it's supposed to be
There used to be a company called Everex that made a grey Borg Cube looking 386 PC. Huge # of add in cards, huge memory boards for the time, and tons of hard disk slots. It even had a nice sliding door to hide the floppy drives.
Don't remember the Borg case they made, but I remember buying a used Everex Step 386 pc in the mid nineties for my now wife as her first computer.
I actually still have the original IDE 40 MB hard drive from that old computer with Windows 3.1 on it packed up, lol.
@@TortureBot 40mb capacity is such a throw back xD
I would expect to see rats nest of cables inside the Borg cube for a realistic look anyway so let them drape!
Regarding rack cases for gaming, I put a MSI MEG z690 ACE, i9-12900k, Noctua NH-C14S and GTX 1080 Hybrid in a Silverstone RM42-502. No regerts! Could probably boost a little higher with an AIO, but temps are definitely under control @ ~40C idle.
Regarding the 7.1 audio out, I'm actually currently using 5.1 analog out to my ancient Logitech Z-5500 surround system that I use as PC speakers. They're "good enough" still, and the metal volume knob is something else.
I'm using them with EqualizerAPO for separate active speakers and sub (downmixing an 5.1) instead of a splitter cable.
In the last couple of years I've bought two sets of those old 5.1 Logitech speakers to use around the house because they work so well
Here's a case from 2006 that still works, no mods needed: LIAN LI PC-7B plus II
I'm *still* rocking it over 15 years later. I actually wish it had one more 5.25 bay, so I could use another HDD enclosure in it.

Linus with the classic Picard maneuver at 2:58
Well as a Graphic Designer who went through nine semesters of design school to get a degree and has been drawing since she was five I can tell you it does not come easy. Like every skill it takes a lot of practice and experience, that is what makes it look simple and easy. My mind is blown when I see Linus just pops in a CPU. Every time I ever built a system I sweated bullets over not damaging any pins. So there is that. ;)
"After all this time, they still haven't learned... Resistance is inevitable."
- Seven of Nine, Star Trek Online
And they didn't realize Borg Cubes are black
For reliable, 25 years ago I bought a 2.1 Logitech speaker system, far from cheap back then but pretty solid speakers in plastic laminated wood. They are still going strong. A pretty beefy base unit on them too.
Linus I use the surround jacks on my mobo. To be perfectly honest modern circuits are good enough that you don't need a sound card.
Came here to basically say this as well.
i have to agree that the Noctua coolers are pretty big, but worth it. you would be fairly hard pressed to find a cooler that has the same performance, same quietness, and same price as the DH-15. its not impossible, but hard enough that you may as well go with the name brand anyway which in this case is Noctua
Your black wash is most likely to thin. Sometimes you just have to add a little more paint and try it on a test piece and then add a little bit more until you have a result you want. Also black washing that much surface area is going to take longer than you might want for video to get right. Some time you also have to do 3 or 4 layers to look good.
it also doesnt work very well on super smooth stuff unless you get it just right (like professional skill). As for the size of the work area, you can put it in a spray bottle and just keep spritzing it letting it build up in all the crevice then wipe it down. But a good rule of thumb I think would be the smoother the surface the thicker your wash needs to be and the rougher/more porous the surface the thinner it can be depending on what kind of effect you want. Also if you need to use it really thick its fine because you can literally wet it down then wipe :) Weathering is a pretty cool process, I learned a lot of it watching adam savage
*PRO TIP*
Well Adam Savage doesn't know that a few light coats of adhesion promoter 3 minutes apart and within 10 minutes u can easily apply to even the smoothest of surfaces ..
@@DavidDiaz-zp4hu I think he uses some kind of clear coat to make it sticky if I remember right. But he also likes using that hair higher stuff which honestly probably would work well here because how someone mentioned the lights.
@@jareds8729 If I where to do this project. I would not just spay the whole thing in bulk. I would do small sections at a time with a brush being mindful of the location of the fiber optics. You can't anyway with the paint the right consistency the paint would dry before your finished. This is how real prop makers do it. Though I would have an advantage, I wouldn't have a deadline and a director breathing down my neck :).
@@jareds8729 those were my thoughts exactly!
HA! Awesome! As a Trekkie, this speaks to me! Love the uniform! Best gen Star Trek ever, not a fan of the white case, shoulda been black with green, now THAT would be a Borg cube.
I had the exact same problem with mine. Couldn't even test with the onboard because I was using a 14700kf. I ended up returning and getting a dark hero instead and eventually got it to work on hdmi, used the windows key+shift +d reset or whatever it is and finally display port worked from there on the dark hero.
Imagine knowing nothing about the Borg, so you order the case in white.. in White?..yes.. why does it exist?
Madness isn't it....

Linus: let's build a Star Trek themes computer
Also Linus: storm troopers are star trek, right?
There are a lot of things that didn't work in one vidio lol but I think the video was brilliant. The best pc building video iv seen to date when things don't have problems, then it's boring, and seeing something that can happen a lot more than anyone really admits cool video. Thank you.
amd stock fan mounting for am2 came out in 2006 so if you got an amd cpu cooler factory/ aftermarket with the 2 point clip it will work all the way to the current am5 motherboards thats 17 years
2:07:45 I wish the front panel things were all standardized into a single plug. Well especially the power sw+led, reset sw, hdd led, pc beeper (if available).
Watching the cable management and all I can think is that some of the tricks and methods from the early-mid 00s could actually fit a Borg cube theme. For example, the corrugated plastic split wire loom would actually fit. Heck, I saw computers back then with those plasma lights and a green one is actually in a Borg cube.
Cases are so much better now, but a part of me does miss the creativity required in those early gaming builds.
I was thinking they could've routed cables OUTSIDE the case in rubber tubing or something. Like the Borg drones have on their suits.
bugs me the side pannel is not blow molded or cast or 3d printed in transparent with the borg cube surface............ :(
I was hoping you all were going to review this amazing case once it hit the market. Happy to see that you finally did!
I absolutely love Alex's weird/nerdy sense of humor and personality
Got to say that the Borg cube is the perfect Trek ship to use, I'd be interested to see them try and fit a computer into the 1701-D.
Regarding the water bottle, I have Hydroflask bottles which are vacuum sealed and dishwasher safe. At least Hydroflask says they are dishwasher safe. So there must be alternative manufacturing techniques which can handle the temperature fluctuation. Maybe LTT could partner with Hydroflask to sell a dishwasher safe bottle!
STAR TREK! This case is awesome. Reminds me of my old borg cube mini fridge.
This looks like the exact opposite of a Borg Cube, imagine not knowing the difference between black and white lol, epic failure 😂
@@xp7575 seethe. It still looks rad in white.
For the HDD in question, you need SGformat, I am betting the sector size is not 512 but insted 518 or some other weird value used by some systems for in sector error correction data
I guess The Rise of Skywalker really did a number on Linus’ views on the entire Star Wars franchise.

Its also the rest of the sequels, rise of skywalker just broke the camels back. Andor and mando(kinda) have been the only saving grace since.
Hey, I still use my awesome, 20-year-old, Logitech Z series THX 5.1 surround sound system. I need those audio ports. Any board that doesn't have them is a deal breaker. Until a system that sounds better comes along. 5.1 on the back of the board is a must! MSI MAG Z790 Max has them, as well as a bios reset button, bios flash back, CPU-less flashing, MSI light load bios feature, best bang for the buck board for the 14900K I've come across. I've tried nearly anything worth its salt.
Why would you ever get a white Borg Cube......
I recently purchased a set of second-hand Logitech 5.1 speakers to plug into those old plugs. The whole thing still sounds great!
I have multiple vacuum sealed water bottles that are dishwasher safe so apparently you didn't look hard enough. They have all been through the dishwasher multiple times and still work the way they're supposed to. ThermoFlask if you were wondering.
So you go test your multiple water bottles and see which ones hold temp better and report back, because I would like to know
@@Thesaltiestofsandys Maybe go back and reread what I said they have all been put through the dishwasher and all still work exactly the same as when I bought them meaning 24 hours cold 12 hours hot just as it says on the box.

@@Thesaltiestofsandys You say that, yet your response sounds extremely condescending. I answered you to the best of my ability and was not condescending in my response or in my original message. I even say the name of the brand in my original message, so I don't know what your problem is.
Color it Black and the light in a morphing Green then its accutate.
I not know what this case cost, but i would made it like the Original, who was made by using Revel modelkit Parts in Layers.
this case is much to smoth.
I just would recomend an Acryl cover over it to made it more easty to clean Dust.
I love how despite not being a Star Trek fan, he puts on the shirt and instantly does the "Picard Maneuver", pulling down on the bottom of his shirt.
I bought CherryTree's other Star Trek Case, a more standard case that has tempered glass front and side panels, and an interchangeable acrylic LED-Lit Star Trek graphic on the front. I highly recommend it for any Star Trek fan that doesn't have the money for the Cube. The only complaint I have with them is that I bought their "House Branded" case fans, (really just cheap UpHere RGB fans with CherryTree sitckers on them). The Red and Black CherryTree logo clashes with the look of the system, and the fans themselves are very loud. If you do order a case from them, spring for the better fan options, or supply your own.
Especially since this isn't a Borg Cube
The color is literally ass backwards 😂
yeah the case fans are loud af. but otherwise its a great case. i wish it handled long power supplies better as i had to wrangle mine into it.
@@jeff119990 it might be a decent case but it's a ripoff cause they're pretending it's a Borg Cube and marketing it as one when it's 180 degrees diametrically the exact opposite of a Borg Cube
@@xp7575 They make a traditionally colored one. The white one is just for people who want the aesthestic.
@@jeff119990 Yeah, I can see that being a problem too. Though the middle support bar for hard drive mounting can be removed, that should make getting the power supply in easier.
For clearing a hard drive so it will be detected you can load a Linux live cd/USB. Go through the install to the point where it asks about the hard drive to install to. Select manual configuration. Remove all partitions. Write changes. Then back out of the install / turn it off.

I miss cube PCs. I have a Thermaltake Core V21, used it for a long time and I love this case. The option to position the mainboard vertically would make even more sense in a modern PC with super heavy GPUs. I mean... most servers and mining rigs go for vertical mainboards for a good reason. And all the cooling area protected by actually good magnetic dust mesh.
Sadly I need something that fits at least a full ATX, because I'm going for dual GPU on my next deeplearning workstation. Would love to go for a (bigger) cube or vertical cube-ish case again. But there aren't any with modern tooling that fit a modern system and offer good modularity or convenience. I can't even find any modern case with easy to remove external dust mesh which was one of the most convenient features introduced in the last 10 years...
You know, this thing is pretty cool looking (if it was the dark grey/black with green lights) and would be something i would consider getting as a huge Trek fan,
... but the pricing just KILLS it sadly!
Thats the way I feel about it. Since it has no front audio, no USB at all, and as Linus pointed out: looks like 3d printed surface wielded together, the price for it just simply is not a justifiable expense. But then, I'm a huge Trek fan and would get this just cause anyways.
I prefer inch standard over metric. I am a Machinist/CNC Programmer (Subsafe Submarine/Oil and Gas industries) by trade and I find myself enjoying conversations from Fractions to Decimals to Metric. Keeps my arithmetic skills up to snuff. On another note Fahrenheit is superior over Celsius due to the fine increments when compared to Celsius. 😅
I would walk into Micro Centre and say "We will add your technological distinctiveness to our PC" to the cashier
Resistance is futile
Why? This isn't a Borg Cube, this is a white box
That's a good fact about the shirt (I was the one with that merch message). Eventually the internet called it The Picard Maneuver even though there was an in-show space ship move called the same. And Riker putting his leg over the chair to sit down is The Riker Maneuver.

I just completed my first build and you were with me every step of the way haha. I watched youtube the whooole time for help. RTX 4070ti with a Ryzen 7 7800x3D. Thing is a beast!
I remember the borg cube being black with green lighting, not a rainbow spectrum of lights. Maybe they should include a light that is a cone shape like the tractor beam.
I ran optical cable in lengths of over 30ft quite a bit when I was doing part-time work for a Home Theatre contractor. I'll never understand why people want to put components of a single home theatre on opposite sides of a house.
I really appreciate you advocating for people to be safe and make appropriate decisions over promoting them to buy your product. IE the jacket for motorcycle riding.
Case needs a bunch of empty plastic model kit frames glued to the outside, a 40k-style weathering pattern, then the RGB locked into a poison green.
With that, love that the Borg have embraced RGB!
that borg cube needs a BORG Sphere to be fitted in the window side, set right in so it is coming out or have a screen in there so its running a clip of the sphere is coming out of the cube...
I'm actually modding a Thermaltake Core V21 into a Borg themed computer, complete with miniature regeneration chambers on the inside. I had no idea this was a thing.
I run a 5.1 surround sound off those jacks, it's way cheaper than having to buy another amp, works for Dolby atmos for headphones, put your- stereo mix to (listen down the 5.1 surround sound) for music and standard desktop apps to actually use all 5 speakers correctly.
When launching bluerays or some movie apps you get true surround sound, (kodi is great)
Its a shame you cant run dolby atmos down the jacks though... that would be the only benefit of foorking out £$1k+ of cash on an surround sound amplifier
Overclocking AMD -> enable PBO and CO -> get almost the same overclock as you would get manually after many hours. It is not fun, but it works well, I just lower the automatically generated CO values by 2-3 just to be safe.

optical prevents ground interference from moving between devices which is a great way to fix those "why does it make this sound sometimes" issues that most people never solve.

I mounted my "modern" PC (7th gen i7, RTX 2080) into my 2009 cooler master case. Not the best air flow or space but the panels still closed up so you could make an argument that you can use PC cases from 15 years ago. Should mention that my motherboard is ATX too

Ok Guys. I NEVER comment on a TH-cam post. 😂😂😂😂. This has been one of the most incredible TH-cam videos that I’ve seen in probably five years plus. You guys did incredible job of covering the topic which is interesting. I think the case is incredible. (In concept). However, it’s when the R2-D2 paint moment when you both are seemingly beaten and the paint step hits. I haven’t laughed so hard, felt so much like I was in a shop with some old friends doing what I love and just been actually entertained while learning a ton; well since I can remember at least. Incredible old school TH-cam ACTUALLY REAL deal feature here guys. Thank you!👌🏻
For the average person Im sure metric is great, but for trades and fabrication its very nice to use a base 12 system. Much easier to divide into smaller systems. 1/2,1/4,1/8, ect vs. .5,.25,.125. also Fahrenheit is just better for how people feel heat. Celsius is how water feels heat and kelvin is how atoms feel hear
I loved the part in the movie when the Borg rolled up in the RGB Cube talkin bout "where we droppin boys?".
The Borg cube was black with green lights. This feels like people that never saw any trek series set together a Borg Cube pc, without knowing what one is. Only because the cool kids like Star Trek.
I think you was worried about the wrong things. Borg cubs had a lot of junk looking pipes and wires in their cubs. So if that case looked a little or even a lot mess it would be Borg like. Not like Star Tek designs.
I would just like to say thank you! You have been such a support through out some of my thoug years . Love , thanks guys
Redshirt Linus.
17:20 BTW, Linus is wrong about when PCIe power connectors became a thing. 6-pin connectors were introduced in 2005, which is more than 15 years ago. ATX 2.1.
Also, there's an actual benefit to Toslink as opposed to SPDIF. You can eliminate ground level weirdness if you don't have grounded outlets.
