There is a clear and obvious reminder on the PSU cables for each brand that they are not to be used with different PSU's. That's all on you, modular psu cables are not universal or interchangeable, sometimes not even on the same brand between models. They specifically state that in the manual and box you get with the psu's.
Yea. That was really painful to watch. Didn't she recall having to select the SPECIFIC PSU when ordering from cable mod? I guess she thought the question was just there for funzies.
A great video to remind everyone never to mix and match modular PSU cables, even from the same manufacturer and brand. Always use the set of cables which came specifically with the PSU. The pinouts for power plugs are standardised on the motherboard side, but they can be different on the PSU side, so using different modular power cables can cause electric shorts.
Yup, knowledge is everything. Since then I’ve done over a dozen more builds - here’s my most recent one th-cam.com/users/shortsxwG_S0u-iu8?feature=share
Hey Deb. Are you sure those pin-outs on PSUs are all the same between the Corsair and SilverStone units? Also, if you're up for it, open up one of the fried PSUs and see if there isn't perhaps a fuse that you can replace to get it up and running again as I'd expect that level of protection from SilverStone.
Hey Gary. I was thinking the same thing about the pin out differences at first but she didn't use the cabling from the SilverStone with the Corsair unit, she just used extensions which have zero issues when using between differing PSU manufactures. Unless the cable extension had a crossed wire its just extending the preexisting cabling. I've heard some horror stories with the SX1000 though. I think trying to cram that much power into a SFX unit requires precise attention to detail. If parts Caps, Mos, etc. aren't exactly up to spec than your asking for issues. I heard Gamers Nexus is looking into this issue.
Your computers have dancing lights, gurgling fluids, spinning fans... My computer is covered in (both black & yellow Lab) dog fur. Excellent fireworks, BTW.
5:18 some of the cables are not extensions, they are directly plugged into the PSU, the pin out is different for a lot these and can cause a short even if they physically fit, but the build looks great! good job!
@@AndietheLab No, the pinouts are only universal on the side that plugs into the Mobo/peripherals. They can differ at the PSU side. Hence "extension" cables that lengthen from the PSU cable to peripheral are fine as it will be 1:1, but swapping cabling that plugs into the PSU is a big no no, even if from the same brand, even the same make as there could be production run changes. BTW your filming and editing chops are inspiring.
I was going to say the same thing. Not all of those were used as extensions. And on PSU side there is no standard... It's a rookie mistake. Should not make to a published video. Some ppl might repeat same errors. What is worse, SilverStone got burned here for no reason.
nice build. You got there in the end. Also, kudos for the ECU (Extreme Close Up) B-roll - very enjoyable. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Liked and Subscribed.
I just blew my Corsair psu last night while testing a motherboard-cpu before putting in the case. I accidentally used.EVGA cpu cord and the psu started smoking. The irony of it was a month ago I watched a video about why not to mix manufacture cords between power supplies.
Awesome build! Love this case, just finished my first custom loop in it too :) Using the SX-1000 in mine because the SX-800 just couldn't handle it without chugging occasionally and that is a *titanium* PSU. The swap made my GPU coil whine go away also.
Custom cables can't be swapped between brands of powersupply. They have to be custom made for the matching power supply. Pretty sure that was the issue here. Great using the FLT120 though, thats what I came here for.
If you have Corsair specific psu cables it's probably not a good idea to plug them into a Silverstone psu. They all have different pin-outs. On the Cablemod site you they are broken out by brands to avoid this.
Obviously the silverstone cables tripped the powersupply since she used those also and it had been runnning fine. Seems to me that it's an issue with the silerstone PSU's.
@@maxxes There's about a 0.000001% chance three PSU go out like that in a row. The pin-outs are different between brands and can't be swapped one for one.
Correction! Now THREE power supplies. You should know (but do you?) that different manufacturers have different cable pin outs and you can't just swap between them using any old power supply cable you like. Test thoroughly with multimeter and power supply tester. The information is in the motherboard manual, the internet and power supply manufacturer. Also, whoever made up you blue cables may have goofed up. Trust nobody's work, always check up first. Geez ....
Great video. Sounds like it was rough. I highly doubt the sf750 is the limiting factor, its been used by the sff community for insane overclocks and high-end parts without problem, it barely kicks in with my 450 watt 3080.
It's probably because she keeps trying to use the same damn blue CableMod cables specifically designed for a specific power supply. The only time she never did was the 2nd PSU but she used the OEM cables from the first one instead of the one that came with the 2nd psu. Blowing all those PSU are her fault.
high temp for a watercooled pc, with the res/pump+vertGPUbracket now you have "only" 240mm+140mm radiators (not so much for such high-end components), maybe more fresh air in the intake can help even more. BTW very good looking pc, nice work
Different psu cables are keyed differently. Seeing as how you're using Cable Mod extensions... They have a compatibility list for different cables and which PSUs they work with. Take a look at that and it will tell you which cables you can use with which PSUs.
So, you ended up ditching the Silverstone entirely and are keeping the Corsair SF750 in the build? Do you know what the maximum output / power draw is with your system when you are stress testing? When you were gaming? Thanks!
The SF750 has been fine but I have 3 new silverstone PSUs that I will be testing out shortly - but it’s been running games and photoshop just fine all these months
Maybe the extensions were made for Corsair power supplies? Wouldn’t the pin outs be different on extensions?? I think you fried 3 PSU from using the wrong cables. If you wanted to properly test it you should’ve just used the stock cables to test first. I fried a PSU using a power cable from another manufacturer before. But I didn’t do it x3.
Hey Deb, got a question about the loop. Is your loop like this: pump->radiator360->gpu->cpu->vram->rad280->distroplatte->pump? And did you use acrylic or petg? Your temps were „high“ with more than 60degress. I‘m asking because i have ideas for a parallel loop for the cpu+vram (same mobo and cpu) TY Cheers
The icue temps is reading the junction temp I think, because I saw / see no thermal throttle. It’s res/pump into back / cable side 240, out into VRM, out VRN to CPU, out CPU to GPU, then into 360 rad below, then back into pump
Careful. Silverstone has a different pin out for the 24pin cable. Not all custom cables will work... Learnt that the hard way too. Also doubt it's the power supply that's limiting the OC. Try adding 5mv then OC the CPU a little. Let us know how you go...
I was increasing the OC by too much - I mean right now I’m still running 3800Mhz on my RAM, but CPU OC is very slight. I think I’m definitely butting against the ceiling with just 750W, and it was all definitely my fault. I just finished a dark hero board with the same setup and another SX1000 PSU - no problems. I’ll be updating this build shortly
@@AndietheLab My current PC was quite a project build at the time I made it... for my next one though, I’m thinking an unassuming undervolted air cooled mini ITX pc. To put it in car terms, I spent all kinds of energy and money tuning up a 4 cylinder to go fast... I think next time I’m just going to save a bit more to buy the V8😂
Heavy components on a single radiator, performs good enough considering small case. What temperatures you thing you would get having two 360mm medium thickness radiators?
Ah yes I jumped over it. XE 240 and SE 360 which gives around of 900W of cooling power and almost 80c on Cpu and 60c on Gpu while gaming seems bit high for me :/ I run stock 5900x on 240 AIO and im having low 70s in games and was considering custom loop to get more room for OC but how much cooling power is there needed to hold it cool If I would pair it with water cooled 6900xt. Awesome build btw, looking forward for more :)
Please read the ekwb leak tester manual first. It clearly states that one should not pump that much pressure into the loop (closed loop 0.3 +/- 0.05 bar).
hi,its a beautiful watercooling custom pc build.And I have a question that whats the length between graphic card backplate and motherboard,cuz i wonder if its enough space for the asus c8i so.dimm card.thanks u.
So what did you end up doing about your PSU? I ordered the Silverstone, and now am finding out that CableMod has discontinued all their Silverstone cables. So that kinda stinks. I'm thinking about sending this PSU back to Amazon and just going with the EVGA 850 GM (Gold PSU). those Silverstone are so expensive and only a 5 year warranty, but there's no other 1k watt power supplies in SFX. It's too bad Lian Li made this case to only accept a small PSU
@@AndietheLab Did you find some custom cables or did you use the ones included with the PSU? CableMod shows out of stock / discontinued. Where did you run the tubing from the inlet on the left of the FLT I can’t tell where it goes? I assumed the left connection was out from the pump and the one on the lower right was in to the pump
Good lord are you sure the cables are compatible with the PSU's you are using?!?! Don't hook anything else up before clarifying the PSU cables are compatible. P.S. the video quality and editing are top notch and miles above other videos.
Now that I know what to did wrong. Get extensions to avoid this issue - or if it’s a major name brand like Corsair or seasonic look for their specific model cables - cablemod has a chart on their website
Yeah after looking into this more, you fried 3 PSUs using corsair cables on a silverstone. The 6-pin SATA pinouts on different brands are almost always different. Silverstone: 12v, gnd, blank, 3.3v, gnd, 5v Corsair: 12v, blank, 3.3v, gnd, 5v, gnd Are your SSDs ok?
Not all PSUs have the same pinout in their cables. You can't just swap PSUs, even with the same brand. You must ensure the pinout on the cables is identical or you risk shorting 12V to ground. Frankly, you're lucky you didn't fry the PC...
Not all custom cable work with all psus. This is common problem. I order custom cables with specific psus and never use different cables with different psus.
psu cables have standards and cablemod specifies what to use with which psu very clearly.....may be sff psus use diff atandard...... it may not be silverstones problem
3 units is user error. You didn't go back to the basics of the basics and dismantle your rats nest of a cable tangle, you've got a feedback or earth loop going on somewhere First clue, the pump not working on the cablemod cables but working on silverstone. Second Clue, cablemod cables work on Corsair but not on Silverstone. Heres where reality hits you and you can no longer blame silverstone for your mistake. For the 6 pin sockets, Corsair and Silverstone use a different pinout for the 3.3, 5v and Ground Corsair GRD 5 GRD 3.3 5 12 Silverstone 5v GRD 3.3 NC GND 12 Obviously, your pump isn't going to run when you invert ground and 5v, or 3.3v and ground, however this is not enough to fry the psu. What killed your Units, is that Silverstone uses a significantly differently pinned ATX 24+4 pin connector, while Seasonic and Corsair use a more similar (but still different) 18+10. SX1000 www.silverstonetek.com/goods_cable_define/sx1000-lpt-cable-define.pdf SF750 linustechtips.com/uploads/monthly_2020_03/corsairsf450.thumb.png.deee98794529d0f9c8450ec3b6e562d7.png Thor i.redd.it/hgjx48t6i6c41.jpg Make no mistake, the Thor will kill something at some point on the corsair cables, but it won't immediately show issues like the Silverstone would.
Amazing work, but one question how often we need to change liquid inside,every few months or one time at year or every few years...anybody, I mean for best performance, I mean closed loop such as Corsair h150 or others, nobody change liquid inside and they have run a years with no problem, maybe little drop of performance but in loop like this I really wanna know....
@@AndietheLab Can u maybe post video how to properly replace or change old liquid and put new one....and all that with video how u test leak, that would help a lot for someone who build something like this for first time....like me....xdxd
😂 I guess plumbing is not your forte. However I fail to understand how it was possible to pass the air pressure test and then have a leak afterwards. And apparently also you don't understand that if a leak is present the first thing is to shutdown power supply , a leak and electricity present would most likely mean damaged components.
And using cables from different PSU!! Are you nuts!?? I think you are just taking the piss and showing everybody what should NOT be done. The only thing I saw you did well as to spread thinly the thermal paste prior to installing the CPU waterblock. Many TH-cam videos show that done wrong.
CableMod do NOT make cables compatible with the SX1000 PSU... FYI.. Also your RAM is 4400mhz and you want to overclock it to 4600mhz 32gb??? I don't think that will work.
I don't know why companies won't make standard psu cables instead of these wacky pin layouts to prevent this problem. I'm sure this happens A LOT. It's pretty much the only pc component that is not standard
Takes speial skill to toast two power suplies. Did you never think of testing thoroughly with a multimeter and power supply tester before connecting and powering up?
@@bosambo Yes indeed ! It was a total of 3! I realised this after I had posted and carried on watching. (shaking my head the whole time!) I almost began to think this was an April 1st joke..... I strongly suspect a case of wrong manufacturers cord in wrong PSU. BITWIT had a similar escapade a few weeks back and he was trying to blame the PSU but I think he had the same issue as this lady.
i just had my silverstone take a dookie on me after a month....had it RMA'd and a week after getting my rig going again....... BAM psu broke the smoke seal again. i'm over silverstone anyrhing
omg... the amount of noob mistakes is astonishing... - Not checking if the system works outside the case before assembling the whole system? - Custom cables without checking if they are compatible and end up burning 3 PSU in the process? - Doing the pressure test with one of the bottom fittings instead of the filling port?
First point - not necessary but a good one. 2nd point - didn’t know about custom pin outs until this build. 3rd point - you don’t have to just check from the fill port, any port is fine But thanks for the kind commentary
Imagine blaming silverstone for Your cooking PSUs using incorrect cables with different pin-outs. It's basically PSU 101 - don't mix cables from one PSU brand to with another, and even in same-manufacturer it's worth googling the pinout. Expensive lesson...

I have most of the parts for this build. Except the 2 essentials that are impossible to find.. 5950 and 3090..
where were you able to buy the vertical gpu mount I have that case and im not able to find it anywhere
I ended up finding them on eBay.
@@AndietheLab ah thank you
They weren’t even marked up, at least then
3 units is user error.
You didn't go back to the basics of the basics and dismantle your rats nest of a cable tangle, you've got a feedback or earth loop going on somewhere
First clue, the pump not working on the cablemod cables but working on silverstone.
Second Clue, cablemod cables work on Corsair but not on Silverstone.
Heres where reality hits you and you can no longer blame silverstone for your mistake.
For the 6 pin sockets, Corsair and Silverstone use a different pinout for the 3.3, 5v and Ground
Corsair
GRD 5 GRD
3.3 5 12
Silverstone
5v GRD 3.3
NC GND 12
Obviously, your pump isn't going to run when you invert ground and 5v, or 3.3v and ground, however this is not enough to fry the psu.
What killed your Units, is that Silverstone uses a significantly differently pinned ATX 24+4 pin connector, while Seasonic and Corsair use a more similar (but still different) 18+10.

Make no mistake, the Thor will kill something at some point on the corsair cables, but it won't immediately show issues like the Silverstone would.
Without a doubt. It’s all part of the learning curve. Thank you for the explanation.
Most underrated tech tuber
I’m just subscribed learning from her to upgrade my water build and start building my own hope I don’t go through more than 2 power supplies 😂😂😂
@@snipe3627 I suggest going on corsairs customer water loop designer it's perfect for beginners
@@lpxpi you just give me some good tips, thank you I'm on it
Amazing work, but one question how often we need to change liquid inside,every few months or one time at year or every few years...anybody, I mean for best performance, I mean closed loop such as Corsair h150 or others, nobody change liquid inside and they have run a years with no problem, maybe little drop of performance but in loop like this I really wanna know....
I do it once a year
@@AndietheLab Can u maybe post video how to properly replace or change old liquid and put new one....and all that with video how u test leak, that would help a lot for someone who build something like this for first time....like me....xdxd
Sure, that’s definitely something I can work on. But Jayztwocents has a GREAT video out on this
You can link to the cutter that you chamfer at 1:47
It’s just the thermaltake cutter and chamfer/debur kit!
Hi :) what about 15% cpu usage 80 c• degrees ?? To 120watts ? Custom watercooling ? Thats
Insane.
So ambient room temp was very high. These days at 30-40% load I don’t even break 30 degrees
@@AndietheLab hi :) 30 dégrées ? make another vidéo please 🙏
😂 I guess plumbing is not your forte. However I fail to understand how it was possible to pass the air pressure test and then have a leak afterwards.
And apparently also you don't understand that if a leak is present the first thing is to shutdown power supply , a leak and electricity present would most likely mean damaged components.
And using cables from different PSU!! Are you nuts!?? I think you are just taking the piss and showing everybody what should NOT be done.
The only thing I saw you did well as to spread thinly the thermal paste prior to installing the CPU waterblock. Many TH-cam videos show that done wrong.
Kind of makes leak testing seem like a particulaly useful waste of time since you had TWO major leaks .....
CableMod do NOT make cables compatible with the SX1000 PSU... FYI.. Also your RAM is 4400mhz and you want to overclock it to 4600mhz 32gb??? I don't think that will work.
Cablemod now makes a kit for the SX1000!
@@AndietheLab link please...
Cool!
those psu cables obviously are not meant to be used w silver stone psus......should have taken a continuity tester and mapped the pins out
I wish I knew how to! But yes, someone drew out the pin out and I get it now.
I don't know why companies won't make standard psu cables instead of these wacky pin layouts to prevent this problem. I'm sure this happens A LOT. It's pretty much the only pc component that is not standard
Takes speial skill to toast two power suplies. Did you never think of testing thoroughly with a multimeter and power supply tester before connecting and powering up?
Three. She fried three of them 🤣
@@bosambo Yes indeed ! It was a total of 3! I realised this after I had posted and carried on watching. (shaking my head the whole time!) I almost began to think this was an April 1st joke..... I strongly suspect a case of wrong manufacturers cord in wrong PSU. BITWIT had a similar escapade a few weeks back and he was trying to blame the PSU but I think he had the same issue as this lady.
Did you know you can use a 160mm long PSU in that case
It’s not the length it’s the thickness that’s the limiting factor
i just had my silverstone take a dookie on me after a month....had it RMA'd and a week after getting my rig going again....... BAM psu broke the smoke seal again. i'm over silverstone anyrhing
Lol you do know now I suppose that you can’t swap psu cables. Po outs aren’t the same on the psu. Especially Corsair.
Yup…😓
I hope you’re not trying to run those sticks at 4600
Couldn’t hit it. Currently at 3800!
How did you manage to get the 3080?
It’s the premade EKWB x ASUS 3090 🥰
Lol
How much does it cost in total?
It’s a bit difficult since so many parts are not available
@@AndietheLab oh ok thank you
Your pinouts are different on your cablemod cable’s not compatible with silverstone but compatible with corsair
Yes. You can't use Corsair cables with a SilverStone PSU. And.... if you have a fully modular PSU, why ON EARTH are you using extensions?
Mistakes were made, lessons were learned. This is literally over 10 builds ago
Yeah. I know. But someone pinged me on it because now they're afraid of using aftermarket cables because of it. LOL
Just use seasonic PSU and be done with it
Ridiculous
4600MHz ... lol
omg... the amount of noob mistakes is astonishing...
- Not checking if the system works outside the case before assembling the whole system?
- Custom cables without checking if they are compatible and end up burning 3 PSU in the process?
- Doing the pressure test with one of the bottom fittings instead of the filling port?
First point - not necessary but a good one.
2nd point - didn’t know about custom pin outs until this build.
3rd point - you don’t have to just check from the fill port, any port is fine
But thanks for the kind commentary
Imagine blaming silverstone for Your cooking PSUs using incorrect cables with different pin-outs. It's basically PSU 101 - don't mix cables from one PSU brand to with another, and even in same-manufacturer it's worth googling the pinout. Expensive lesson...
Awesome build!! Overclocking is over rated anyways!
