I simply love those kind of "I want it exactly that way" builds where it's not simply "get the biggest GPU and throw it into an overkill, watercooled PC case" but one where there is a specific use case 99,9% of all people don't need/want and that is genuine something new and interesting. Love the idea with the external cooled rack PCs!
Exactly. I've found that alot of enthusiasts develop interests in very. specific. setups, that aren't conventional and push the limits of compatibility. Hearing people's reasoning behind their decisions, and also watching them work around the problems, is much more interesting then "hey guys, xyz here, today we slapped a 4090 and 7950x together. wow look at big number, make sure to subscribe!"
@@peyton_uwu I'm designing a 7600, 6700 10gb build right now that's designed not for numbers, but to sip power and stay as cool and quiet as possible while also displaying 144hz 1080p. It's been fun to craft and design so far.
Linus: *talks about being budget concious* Also Linus: *Builds 5 high-end rackmounted computers, just in case his children bring friends home to play games*
"Budget Conscious" does not mean "low budget". It just means not spending more money for no reason. Whether you're spending $50 or $50,000, you need to know what you can spend, and should be minimizing unnecessary costs, even if you can afford it.
PEI Sheets would make for a good separation layer for this application IMO. It's thin, Provides good electric insulation even when hot and is resistant to high temperatures. The best part is it comes in easy to use square adhesive sheets since it's widely used for 3D printer heated beds! a Simple hole punch could be used for the standoffs as well
Liquid electrical tape is another option. Coat all the contacts with it and you can go pretty thick if you want. Easy to remove if you need as well. Cheap and effective option.
Ever since seeing the first rack pc build years ago it’s always been my dream to have a high capacity server setup hooked up to an insane gaming / CAD machine.
Who wouldn't want to have the most powerful gaming PC in existence? how a mother for epyc with 2 processors of 128 cores and 256 threads. 1TB of RAM a dedicated NAS server to save upcoming games and images and 2 rtx 4090. do i need it? Of course not, but I would love to have it.
@@gustavobalmaceda2346 why not 8 4090s there are ways to do that and that is my future plan though I am not going to be compact. It will take some time I have a few dice rolls that need to line up properly but if they do oh boy. I will finally have a 3D computer that may can keep up with my fucked up mind.
Recently someone posted a video in r/homelab showing their home server room with two fully equipped racks. An absolute dream, as long as you don't have to pay for electricity...
Motherboard electrical insulation: Get 1mm Thermal Pad in sheet form. Cheap, helps with thermals, electrically insulated. IO Shield: use an ASRock or SuperMicro MB meant for rack mounting, the IO shields are 1U tall. You'll have to design the case to fit. Power Supply: Should have used a Delta hot-swap; you'd need a break-out board, but people make them. Would have been more power, modular cords.
The mATX-spec motherboards are my bread and butter. They generally have all the features I need without me having to pay for extras that I don't use, and fitting them in a case is easy.
@@potatoes5829 yep. I'm currently using that board and being very annoyed being constantly reminded of how Asrock has no idea on how to make a motherboard yet.
I recommend using Kapton tape next time instead of electrical tape. The adhesive is better than electrical for these surfaces and you can buy wider tape to cover more area.
man this looks really well integrated and you could think that its a specially designed product for a 1u gaming system, kinda like the Gigabyte 1u gaming server just in DIY and without a radiator and pumps
I work in a Datacenter, the idea is not to have any carbon material in the cage where the machines are hosted. Carbon gives off lots of smoke and can trigger the fire system with any minor fire. The strong ventilation can make any short circuit sparks light up quite fast any flammable material. A small fire turns into a huge one in seconds.
The stock photo of the Raidmax Sagittarius absolutely threw me into nostalgia mode. The age of triple-core processors! Also, Sunon MagLev fans are the reason server stuff is a lot more quiet these days. They're magical.
not to be a hater or anything bro, but that would kind of defeat the purpose of the IO shield with how powerful pcs are nowadays. you have a lot of points of contact for all of your connections back there, you want to make sure there's no crosstalk or signal interference/degradation, and no cable to port connection is a perfect seal, back in the day there weren't nearly as many ports and the throughput was like a raindrop in the ocean compared to what the average pc uses today.
I loved the section where they talked about not having flammabke stuff inside your pc and I am chilling here with my cardboard box that houses my pc parts XD
Those actually can be an issue because if your mobo shorts, it can ground fault to the screws, which in turn send it back through the case to the PSU plug to terminal ground (your wall plug). Shorting through cardboard = bad. Always have liked the concept because wood and cardboard PC's are definitely an aesthetic, but without some sort of metal frame bridging the standoffs to the PSU it can go bad (PCB fires are pretty).
For insulation under the MB. Transparency film for laser printers is nice. High temp. High voltage and very puncture proof compared to tape and cardboard.
Y'all should've used kapton tape to cover the bottom of the boards. Translucent, less residue, and designed for the purpose. Great build though. I love this so much.
I'm still super happy with the performance of my 3700x ! Awesome to see it here. Just bought a water-cooler for it. And now it's so cool, even a little bit of a performance bump! Great video again as always!
At the end of the house build, I want a total cost for every item and service done to his house. I kinda want to do the pc in another room set up some day and fiber optic throughout my house when I get one!
They sell very thin (thickness that goes down to 0.1mm) silicone sheet that you can use instead of cardboard. I use thick ones for subwoofer anti vibration, rubber replacement for chair legs, and thin ones I had used as electric insulation.
i feel like a chassie/vertical blade kind of setup would work better here, can easily get 5 systems in 4 or 5U with ability to work on one at a time but with far less height contraints as you would have 3.8 inches (19 inches/5) of room vs 1.75 inches
what would he do for the CPU there? He's using physically separate ones because of anti-cheat issues. Are ITX motherboards small enough to fit multiple in a server footprint?
16:55 Yes, you're wrong - most fan hubs break, not all. But the ones I've never had issues with came out of my (badly outdated, long since stripped for parts) Innosilicon A2 units and don't have a brand name on them.
All I want to see after this is a cost breakdown, cos as much as I would love to try something like that, I expect trying to achieve it on my average budget is still a no go, the PSU alone is probably 3 times what mine costs, let alone the custom rack mounted case etc.
Craft computing does builds with the 3 gpu 1U servers that run about $300 dollars on ebay, sure you are limited in choices for gpu, but even with M40 cards he was able to run 6 separate virtualizations of crisis
I love how you can physically see linus at 21:47 just wishing, thinking, dreaming of making them all like this, he is probably gonna do it XD Hope to see the vid soon
btw Linus, if you go from 3/8 tubing to 1/2 inch barbs you would get a flow advantage, but if the pump is designed for 1/2 then you'd be increasing the pressure/stress on the pump. Doing it the other way around with a 3/8 pump with 3/8 barb, 1/2 inch tubing, you'd lack pressure, you'd lack flow. Pro tip you can't cheat physics, treat your cooling system like you treat the RAM, pair it as close as you can, and you'll get a water cooled system that will last a decade. pro pro tip: quick disconnects, installing a new GPU to your decade old system takes only 5 minutes including adding the fittings and refilling the loop.
This is seriously sick. I like it immensely. I think this would be a good fit for my setup, as I've been wanting to minimize my gaming rig's presence in the room. Will the company you mentioned custom make these racks? And being new to this footprint / platform, what are the overall dimensions? I can't find anything on depth, and two widths are listed, 19" and 23". My 75" display sits on a stand atop an old chest of drawers that I could use to house the case, or maybe just rebuild the machine into one of the drawers or something? I'm concerned about heat doing it that way though.
Only using the PC for two hours a year, or happily spending the money you save on upgrading in electricity bills? That's an 105W-CPU slower than modern 10W-CPUs which also have an iGPU. If you also have a 100W-GPU in there and a comparably old 80%-PSU you are wasting a good 240W of power every hour that box is doing anything. Unless you also heat with electricity and only game in winter?
I'm kinda shocked they didn't just use their laser cutter to cut out a perfect insulator sheet for the motherboard. They designed the chassis, this would be such a simple thing for them to do.
So instead of cardboard, why not 3D print a thin layer with PETG that matches the MOBO, or a cheap way out is plastidip the inside with a light coat, and maybe thin nylon washers to space out the MOBO to the case.
18:45 IF the system works as intended and his pool is full, let's assume, that his pool fits 25m^3 of water, it would need 29097.22Wh to heat up all the water by 1°C! soo... even if Linus would use 10 PC at full capacity for an 3h, it would just about heat up the pool by 1°C. that is... if you don't consider any concrete etc. that also has to be heated up. Also: this means that the heat from his computers probably won't even make a measurable contribution to the pool heating.
its such a dad thing to want a full-on LAN room for the entire family to game together, while most likely each family member might have their own different taste in games, or maybe most of the time they don't all have time at the same time. It's wholesome, but it seems so futile to me. idk, I did have a terrible childhood so I can't exactly comment in reality
I'm thinking about building an in-wall pc in my office to save on desk space. 1U would be perfect depth-wise, but it's gotta fit between the 16" studs...
Use Teflon fiberglass adhesive foil for 3D printing (table) as insulator under MB ( even non adhesive black Teflon fiberglass black foil to put on BBQ and double adhesive tape...😉) it is 0.35-0.5 mm 🤔💭😉😇
Would love it if you guys did a video on building a system for photo editing. Lightroom is finicky and can be tough to get running quick. I have a 5950x and 3080 with 32GB of RAM with a Samsun 980 drive, cache on a separate NVME, but LR still chugs through photos at a "meh" pace.
So about the PSU: FSP builds BeQuiet's PSU's I'm assuming that either BeQuiet choose FSP because they now how to make a quiet PSU or the quiet FSP PSU's are the result of them working with BeQuiet. I wrote quiet and PSU a lot.
Coming back a few days after watching this earlier this week when it was released. quick question Linus, would it ever interest you to do a video on Tech Accessories for general builds of PC's? maybe recommend some of the best headphones, mice, keyboards for each budget bracket? maybe under$100.00, $101-200, $200.00+, I would love to hear what input you have after years of testing different brands quality. thanks for reading.
the raven is cool conceptually but is the throughput of 5gbps not too little for a higher end gaming system? From my research a QHD@144Hz signal should require around 16Gbps of bandwidth, which is not possible via usb3.1. to support this icron should probably add support for displayport. A fiber connection should be able to easily handle the throughput of DP 2.0 and up to around 4 individual usb 3.1s
Cardboard is usually a big no-no in datacenters because it releases particles/dust. I suppose this just sitting in the bottom of a case and not moving is gonna be okay though.
So I know he has fiber optic in the walls, but I thought it was Thunderbolt from Corning. Is the hub he put in there compatible and those fiber optic lines can be used for USB C as well? And is he plugging usb and his display port from the rack PC into the hub or how is he transmitting the display over the lines in his walls?
Are you going to do a video on the actual setup without all the placeholder parts? Seems like a lot of videos have been heavy on concept and light on actual result?
Me: complaining about 3090 performance on a single PC Linus: serves entire family's computing needs with an 850w power supply, a single 3090, and one processor
Linus- the electrical tape is a bad idea, the glue on electrical tape gets gooey and crappy over time and the tape will lose its stickiness, leaving a gooey mess. xD
I wonder... Wouldn't a 4U with 5 MITX boards work too? I mean you can stack them vertically and have enough space for PSUs, water cooling, the graphics cards, etc. Sure the maintenence part is a PITA but supposing you're using quick disconects anyway it'd be almost the same as dealing with five individual 1U racks.
Not only would maintenance be a pain, (which is why you would not do it that way anyway), but he specifically mentioned that having more than one machine in a single unit means that if something breaks then all of them gets taken down. It would be incredibly rare that all five pcs would need that kind of maint. at the same time. Then there is the nightmare of lifting 5 water-cooled systems at the same time and having to be even more careful when working on them. It would honestly be easier building 5 identical pcs and putting them side by side on a shelf somewhere.

quick question Linus, would it ever interest you to do a video on Tech Accessories for general builds of PC's? maybe recommend some of the best headphones, mice, keyboards for each budget bracket? maybe under$100.00, $101-200, $200.00+, I would love to hear what input you have after years of testing different brands quality. thanks for reading.
I would really love to see more about the remote keyboard and monitor setup.
Cat 6 Usb extension with a hub for the USB, still trying to figure our display routing, display port 1.4 is about 24gbs of transfer
Could use HDMI to NDI bird dog system for display over the network. Can bring up any of your computer screens anywhere in the house.
the raven is cool conceptually but is the throughput of 5gbps not too little for a higher end gaming system? From my research a QHD@144Hz signal should require around 16Gbps of bandwidth, which is not possible via usb3.1. to support this icron should probably add support for displayport. A fiber connection should be able to easily handle the throughput of DP 2.0 and up to around 4 individual usb 3.1s
Love this. Can't wait for the final deployment!
So thankful for this
Cardboard is usually a big no-no in datacenters because it releases particles/dust. I suppose this just sitting in the bottom of a case and not moving is gonna be okay though.
So I know he has fiber optic in the walls, but I thought it was Thunderbolt from Corning. Is the hub he put in there compatible and those fiber optic lines can be used for USB C as well? And is he plugging usb and his display port from the rack PC into the hub or how is he transmitting the display over the lines in his walls?
Thanks Jake, you shut off all the lights in my room.
Are you going to do a video on the actual setup without all the placeholder parts? Seems like a lot of videos have been heavy on concept and light on actual result?
The Corsair fan hub has been fine for me.
Me: complaining about 3090 performance on a single PC
Linus: serves entire family's computing needs with an 850w power supply, a single 3090, and one processor
there is a point that the performance of the pc will exceed the current method of getting the inputs and output/monitor signal will not work well!
Never had a fan hub break during my typical upgrade interim which is 2.5 to 4 years. What yall doin over there???
Jake is probably the best person to build a computer with
Just mount a tray on your rack and put a few regular gaming PCs on that.
Okay but heres an idea do a ltt screwdriver that has a bendable head so you’re able to get at hard angles
Cardboard as an insulatore in a basement...Just hope its as dry as a bone down there...:)
Thanks for saying “Hey Siri” in the video, Jake. Lol
"it's not like there's a concrete barrier" as if European houses aren't exactly that
I'd assume there is lol
got an x570 mobo with a 3700x atm. can't wait for 5800x3d to drop price a lil and upgrade! 😃
i know its not very interesting but a parental control episode would be great!
Rather than cardboard, use a solid rubber (not foam) matt.
This is too cool. Now I want to do this.
No dbrand vinyl backing? There's a missed opportunity team!
I love Jake, "Am I Wrong!?"
Linus- the electrical tape is a bad idea, the glue on electrical tape gets gooey and crappy over time and the tape will lose its stickiness, leaving a gooey mess. xD
I wonder... Wouldn't a 4U with 5 MITX boards work too? I mean you can stack them vertically and have enough space for PSUs, water cooling, the graphics cards, etc. Sure the maintenence part is a PITA but supposing you're using quick disconects anyway it'd be almost the same as dealing with five individual 1U racks.
Not only would maintenance be a pain, (which is why you would not do it that way anyway), but he specifically mentioned that having more than one machine in a single unit means that if something breaks then all of them gets taken down. It would be incredibly rare that all five pcs would need that kind of maint. at the same time. Then there is the nightmare of lifting 5 water-cooled systems at the same time and having to be even more careful when working on them. It would honestly be easier building 5 identical pcs and putting them side by side on a shelf somewhere.
