It doesn't matter what kind of cooling system you use if the PC parts are the same, it'll heat up the room just as much. 200W CPU + 350W GPU will dump 550W of heat into your room no matter how you cool them.

Car radiators can go for about the price of 1 or 2 of those pc radiators, the only issue as Linus found out before would be adaptors for the large hose outlet and inlet on the radiator to the size compatible for the pc. once you get around that it would be conceivable to do a similar setup for much cheaper. Would be interesting to see one done with the oil radiator on older vw bugs because if i remember correctly those have smaller inlets and outlets much closer to pc sized parts. (yes old vw's were oil cooled, not water cooled its quite interesting)
@deadaccount6135 Рік тому

@robertking3098 2 роки тому
Ugh! I used to build and race cars. One of the most common mistakes I see is running heat exchangers (water radiators, oil coolers, transmission coolers, etc...) in series -- just like you guys did. Heat exchangers work best when there is a large temperature drop. Running heat exchangers in series mean the first one is doing the most work, the second is doing about 25% of the work the first one is, and the rest are doing nearly zero cooling. Plus the flow restructions all add up, like resistors in series in an electrical circuit. Run your heat exchangers in PARALLEL. You'll get more efficient cooling (the fluid enters ALL the heat exchangers at the same temperature and the fluid spends MUCH longer in the heat exchanger.) You also get much lower flow restriction since, like resistors in parallel, the flow restriction is the inverse of thesum of all the heat exchanger's flow resistance.) Plus the hot air is spread more evenly across the entire desk. Now for this project, you're so over-cooled it doesn't matter, but for other water-cooled projects, it can make a big difference.

@dighawaii1 2 роки тому
For anyone who sees this: The trick to drilling through metal is to press hard (not so hard that a thin bit might snap) and to not drill fast. You want it to spin about 5 rotations per second (pretty slow, but moving). A lot of people do not know this and spin the bit fast. This will dull your bit within one to two holes, or less if it's thick metal. By going slow you give the bit time to "bite" and peel the metal. Fast turning simply polishes your bit's leading edge, dulling it. It's counter-intuitive, but true. Once you practice this after a couple holes you will understand :) Be careful, anyone watching you drill, and who's not savvy, will question you.

@siberx4 Рік тому
Using a fan controller with a temperature probe in the water loop would be ideal for this setup; pick a water temp you're comfortable with and have it keep the loop there at whatever RPM it takes. Controlling fans like this from something like CPU temperature is an impossible exercise, because 90% of the temperature rise occurs between the CPU die and waterblock but you have all the thermal inertia in the water to deal with. A "traditional" loop will spin the fans up way too fast under any load, because the temperature shift from the water heating up is swamped by the innate temperature shift of the CPU load spikes.

"Central Cooling"! Just a thought: With fans blowing down [at least during Winter], it would be a leg warmer. Corollary idea: Wire the fans so air direction is easily switchable; for instance, blowing air up, from time to time, would certainly be desirable to clear the inevitable dust that'll collect in the radiator fins (the glass top wasn't a bad idea in that regard).
@ShendonZ 2 роки тому
you could have used 280mm radiators so the heat would be dissipated at the back of the desk with low rpm (or passively at idle) and have the area where your keyboard and mouse to be just fine with a holeless design/have a glass at the top, you could also put a little border that separates the "airflow area" from the "work space" so any accidental spill or thing lime that wouldn't be a complete nightmare to clean later. i would LOVE to see a rev 2 version of this that can be actually usable in a regular day

They kind of do, the hole spacing for the main mount around the die doesn’t change much hence why things like the nzxt g10 and g12 have been around allowing you to use standard asetek cpu clc design coolers on the GPU die. The main issue is with cooling everything else other then the die. Memory and vrm on the front and sometimes on the back mean there’s no one size fits most full cover blocks and a lot of people probably don’t want use thermal adhesive to manually glue heat sinks to chips.

It still is controlled by the temp control but you can set the lowest speed or have static but limited to a speed that is the lowest safe level but you can turn it up or down at your will. Meaning have your fan already on before your start doing what your going to be running. A simer method could also be designed just for the idea however. Which would work to push air up or down so that you can select where the heat goes.
