Once again a huge thank you to Fractal Design for sponsoring this insanely corny video. We had fun making it. Those who have ever watched an annoying infomercial will catch the references otherwise.... whatever.
JayzTwoCents pretty funny how many folks don't get it. Good work.
JayzTwoCents this is one of he funniest pc hardware videos ever!!!
You know, even if you make an annoying infomercial sarcastically you are really just making an annoying infomercial.
JayzTwoCents THIS IS WAY TOO CHEESY HAHAHAHHA
i was expecting jayztwocents to pull the extra tubing from his pants....
On the video shes like "im not getting paid enough for this shit"
If Fractal Design's customer support is anything like Josh and you have ANYYY questions... They'll be glad you asked.
"expandable loop" but has warranty void if removed stickers on the fittings...
EpicSMG26
That is a sham.
Those are illegal in a lot of countries anyway (US and European Union included) So they can put all the stickers they want on there, they still by law are supposed to honor the warranty.
Yea, but unless you take them to court, you'll get nowhere.
Not correct - on both accounts.
The EU warranty laws don't count closed loop coolers, but they DO count laptop and desktop parts. Just like how your graphics card can't have its cooler removed, but you can RMA a graphics card from a prebuilt PC.
As for "not going anywhere unless you take them to court" remark... good thing we have consumer rights organisations who will do just that for you, which is why almost every retailer folds once you threaten them.
It makes perfect sense. If you expand your loop and fuck it up, they aren't responsible for replacing your unit because it wasn't a problem with the product in it's original state.
Love the fake telemarketing vibe. Jay and Nick are always great at comic relief! Glad Nick came on full time!
Jay is a wizard he magically learned the volunteers name
"Blood sacrifices must be made"
Yes.... the automotive DIY gods demand as much as well.
agreed.
As an IT Tech I always distanced myself from automotive techs when I was young, seeing them as worlds apart. Now that I'm older and more experienced I can see that the only things separating the two are their respective cultures - they're otherwise very similar lines of work!
I'm planning my own first watercooled PC using the radiator outa a peterbilt (semi truck).

I want another ad, 11:08 - You must do a video like this with every brand you can.
Jay - make ads great again.
Guys I'm trying to water-cool my RAM cuz it heats up too much when I play Tetris...Any advice?
TechExcalibur You'll have to use Liquid Nitrogen for that.
Just make sure your ram is in SLI for maximum performance.
TechExcalibur lay your pc ok the side, open it up and put icecubes on there
Submerge it in water, so every single component is cooled
That means your ram is no good. You should download some new one
I'm getting ready to get into Water Cooling for the first time. And I'm doing as much research as I can about the subject. All of your videos on the subject are VERY informative. So, with all this information at my hand I will be doing a PETG for my first build. Flex tubing seems to easy. I am VERY mechanically inclined so this doesn't seem like much of a challenge. But I cannot wait to try this. I know I will make mistakes doing this but I'm all in now. And I cannot wait. I bought the Thermaltake GT20 case just to do this. I liked the View 91 but the cost was a bit much for my liking. The GT20 was right in my budget. I plan on doing this all within time and I am in no rush to get this done. From all your videos that I have watched PATIENCE is key for Water Cooling PCs. And I'm very excited to do this for the first time. Somewhere down the road I'm planning on moving to glass, but for the time being I will stick with PETG. It looks like a good starting point. And Flex Tubing just looks terrible IMO. So Thanx for all your hard work on putting these Water Cooling videos together for all of us. I for one am extremely appreciative for your hard work on the matter.
This is an entertaining advertisement, weird
i tried to get you of my screen lmao
Dick Stroke Damnit,you had me wiping my screen, +1
this is an entertaining username
Same.. I was like wtf!
nice image
Is an AIO pump usually powerful enough to handle this sort of scenario or is that a good reason to favor building a full custom loop instead of starting with the AIO in the first place?
OMG this is so cringe. I love it.
so _much_ *cringe.*
rip popz
That's the joke
jay you need this guy back on the show im crying watching this
Jay your fucking awesome. I love being a PC enthusiast.
I watch your show daily and its one of the best parts of the day.
Thanks Jay
That was pretty cool they got with you for this build. I was wondering, does this concept work with most AIO coolers or does the cooler need to be designed with the potential to expand?
This was like a poorly filmed daytime tv commercial
Ike S You could almost hear Billy Mays screaming from beyond the grave.
Ike S Wasn't that the whole point?
Exactly the point :-)
Ya... they did it on purpose
Can you put the specific links to the parts?
This guy has a very nice voice no homo
I'd love an actual product list with the # of fittings and amount of tubing required. Another great video Jay!
What fluid did you use for the mixed metals ?
one with anti corrosive chemicals, like he said.. Its just an additive
Jay, Awesome video!
Question: Can you run this system for a couple of months and then do a disassembly video to show if galvanic corrosion took place or not. The radiator is Aluminium, and, I think you used a copper of nickle/copper water block for the GPU and Fractal uses a copper cold plate for their CPU. Plus nickle plated copper barbs on a Aluminium radiator. Even with using an anti-corrosive coolant, I think it will make an interesting video and put all mixed metal water cooling questions to rest, any probably silence some haters along the way too. Keep pumping out more kickass videos!
Rohan Joseph someone answer this
Been there, done that. Couple of months you'll not see an issue at all. Couple of years well that can be another story. I used Blue Asian formula antifreeze for months and everything was clean as a whistle before moving to all copper. People make me paranoid. I did have an AIO fail where the fluid lost it's anti corrosive properties, the aluminum rad suffered badly, the copper CPU plate on the other hand cleaned up nicely and looks new.
Just tried a custom loop with the s24. Set up exactly the same way but with no GPU route, only cpu.
Well after hours of trying, the fluid will not flow around the loop. I have tried moving the resivoir and everything but there is not enough power to push the fluid around?
Any suggestions please?
This was FANTASTIC!! Felt like I woke up at 3:45 in the morning to take a piss and the T.V was still on hahaha!!
“You’re always prepared Jay”
“I was a Boy Scout”
I like when channels have people from companies to come and film a video, plus it was that level of funny where it gives you a smile, but you're dying on the inside
I convert most of my AIO's to custom loops as a standard in many of my current and past systems as it's not too difficult. The main reason for doing it is to be able to monitor fluid level and condition, the main killer of AIOs. You can also expand capability (upgrading radiator size or adding a second). This said, some AIOs are more difficult than others based on how the fittings are attached to the pump and radiator and also the size/style used. Ideally, at least in the States, you want to be able to use 1/4" or 3/8" OD tubing as it's stocked at local hardware stores and very cheap. It comes in clear vinyl and solid, flexible rubber (automotive variety). Both work fine but vinyl is usually better as you can see the fluid and air bubbles more easily. Lastly, most AIO's are more than capable of runnign large radiators, or more than one radiator, and/or graphic card blocks. Closed loops don't require much pressure or flow-rate, expecially when we're talking
When you said come aios are more of a pain are you speaking of corsair? I'm actually about to what was done in this video but I have corsair h115 280mm and looking for your insight
Coraise h115 should not be an issue at all. Most Corsair water blocks are more or less all the same. I’ve converted at least 2-3 versions of their AIO
@@bluethumbdiy4735 do you know what size tubing they typically use? Thanks for the info
@@jahmezis45 If I get time I will measure one of my old corsair water blocks. But based on memory and also what seems to be confirmed online, 12mm OD or 3/8" OD works on most newer/larger Corsair AIOs.
@@bluethumbdiy4735 thanks I found your information to be true
wouldnt the copper coldplate and the aluminum gpu block and rad cause rust?
One: copper and aluminum dont "rust" they corrode
Two: corrosion inhibitors.
Open loop is simple and more effective! Get a Predator x360 or similar kit for under 400 and you will have a proper loop kit with easy tubing, a top of the line pump / block and an extremely high quality radiator, all copper contacts. Was my first open loop having never done one before and it was extremely easy to do!
At first I thought, "Wow, Josh's wife is really short." Then I remembered that Jay is like 6' 2" and Josh is 6' 4" and that his wife is probably taller than my 5' 8" self...
A good, clear, simple step-by-step guide for the whole process. Apart from at 9:43 when it jumps to 'we've got some fluid in there'.
I think we might have missed a step...
The advertisements are getting smarter.
This super cheesy infomercial freaking worked ... ahhhhh! I just ordered the Celsius S36 from Amazon for a cheap price of $139 free Prime delivery...this is perfect for my first attempt at a complete water loop setup. Thanks Jay for another video....!
I love the audience sounds! :D
Bought S24 for Ryzen. Turned out, even though it has holes for Ryzen, it is too high to make a contact with IHS, at least on my Crosshair 6 Hero ( on AMD sockets it uses default motherboard backplate).
So I put 8 paper sheets between Mobo and backplate and that did the trick.
Also tubes from radiator where to far apart to fit into top section of my Be quiet Silent Base 800 case, but scissors for metal helped me there.
Spent 5 hours installing said cooler.
Performance is nice. Quiet operation can be achieved for up to 3.875GHz@1.3675V
Loving the content recently :D
I have been looking for someone to do a video on this. I never would have thought that it was 2017 Jaystwocents.
this video was so painfully obviously scripted, but i think that was the point.
It obviously was, like all the Fractal commercial on UA-cam ^^
the production value is off the chain! keep up the good work guys
Does anyone know what reservoir that is!!???
anyone?
Only thing that would make this better:
Jay: "Thanks folks for sticking around, and as appreciation for your continuous support I would like everyone to look under your chair."
Me : *at home watching, gets up and look under my chair*
Me: "Holy hell, how did Jay get a Fractal Design Celsius S36 under my chair at my house?"
*Still watching video*
Jay: "Well Matt, we did mention I am the 'Wonderful Super Supreme Master Liquid Cooler'; and you don't get that title for nothing"
Great video! I run custom loop and thought this was a really neat feature for an AIO.
HOW IS THAT NOT COMPLICATED LOOOL
It's pretty much the same thing as an open loop
Benoit Levesque wat
Pretty easy
You don't have to source much of the parts aside from some basic tools so it takes a lot of the guesswork out of building a custom loop.
Benoit Levesque At least you cut one part of installing water pump
Because it really isn't. I've never watercooled, never even built a custom PC in my life, and I can tell you this looks easy to do, given you have the correct mounts and such.
Not to mention in my own personal opinion, a custom loop really doesn't seem that hard either(at least depending on materials used). Besides sourcing parts, the main thing with custom loops just seems to be the sequence in which it flows(again, that's my own personal opinion). Other than that, it really doesn't seem as difficult as you or anyone else makes it out to be.
Generally I hate sponsored content but this is actually interesting. A bit overacted but I will let that go given the experimental nature and the attempt to make it more accessible. Well produced though like we are used to from Jay. The concept of an extensible AIO to custom watercooling is good, the investment costs of watercooling are hight, this way you can work towards it in phases if you really want to do it.
Solution: don't
Jay I hope you get to read this. Quick question that I don't think I've seen anyone touch on. I'm getting ready to do my first water cooling build/hard line. I'm using EKWB fittings and was curious if a tiny tiny touch of silicone grease on the O rings would be beneficial in both tightening down and help sealing? My trial fitment shows a lit of friction on the tightening down between the ) rings and the tubing. Thank you Jay. Love the channel
12:00, I'm dead XD
Actually nicely made and it may make more people buy into AIO's with intent to watercool it all in few years. It probably takes of a lot of the initial fear off.
I don't know who she is, but she looks tiny and scared between you guys xD
+Jaime Almeida wouldn't you be?
Lmao! Great videos Jay, I'm not into water cooling but find your content very entertaining and informative.
Can we expect some ThreadRipper vs i9 content with price/performance analysis? Thanks.
Canned laughter 19 seconds in? I can already tell I am going to enjoy this.
illuminati confirmed 11:55
This is the best PC related Vidoe on UA-cam ever. This should be the benchmark for any info/DIY related video.
Rajintek triton was First
I usually skip the sponsors but I liked this one and I watched it all
i think i speak from everyone when i say we want to see more of Ana/Aana/Anna
LOL!!!! This was hilarious. Fractal should put it as their TV ad.
she has this look. like, stand aside noobs, stop talking, let the pro get down to business.
I've never laughed like this watching a watercooling tutorial before 😂😂
As good as an LTT video, with 20 less employees!
LTT releases a video everyday tho.
And I need to see some Dennis in a video
Very nice approche, starting from an all in one solution and expanding it. Can this be done with the NZXT Kraken?
They were picking on the black guy!!1! RACISTS!!1!1!!!1!
Ive been building gaming computers for over 20 years, i used an open loop in just one of my computers in the past.
The reason i dont do custom loops anymore, is because its extremely expensive. The fittings alone can cost hundreds of dollars. CPU block can cost hundreds, GPU block can cost even more. Your water cooling loop can end up costing more then your PC components, depending on how much you spent on your components.
Im good. The prices got very expensive over the years. I would love to do more custom loops, but not with the prices right now.
Who's the emo Latina ?
Brads wife, started working there after she was fired:) #justiceforbradswife
This is the only thing I have ever seen her show cleavage on, I looked her up after your comment. To even notice her chest under her baggy shirts, shows me that you gotta get laid... Like fast....
And she knows"Hard".

Bet my ass that's the my name's boxy girl.
i would like a few videos like this every now and again
:-D
4 days ago? What?!
John Ivar Rubach The fuck
How
John Ivar Rubach Wut
How?
Any idea if Fractal plans on selling matching tubing separately?
More of the woman, less of the water cooling.
I have a couple of question regarding this expansion. Since the sensors are led by the CPU block, does that mean the GPU block is at the mercy of CPU temps? How does someone work with this? Also, if you wanted a bigger radiator, can you remove both in-take and out-take tubes to replace the radiator and how would that work with sensors?
I have no problem it being a sponsored video, I thought it was informative, BUT... I didn't really like the fake laughs and applause and so on. I get the joke on infomercials but on a 12 minute video I found it quickly to be quite annoying. I also think this is not your kind of comedy Jay. I prefer your usual solo, self deprecating style of comedy. This comedy style would fit better in the short Fractal Design commercials that you and Kyle roll before your videos. Anyway it's also good to try something new and this is meant to be just constructive criticism.
Yikes, loosen up.
Best ad ever, i'll never skip this ad
Ive ALWAYS wondered about this. I have a few old AIO's w/ fd up pumps and whatnot.. so I had wondered if I could repurpose them in an open loop-- b/c I seen a custom job a while back where someone used a car radiator, attached to his desk, to cool his system. Now, Im not looking to go that big.. but I did have a question about this endeavor:
Would it be just as easy to do this if someone was to try using 2 rads from AIO's, THEN attaching them to an external pump that can handle the size of the two pumps+res?
Question......Will the coolant that comes in AIO setups freeze?..or does it have properties such as the antifreeze (coolant) in your car?
Is the pump strong enough to push water through a loop like this over a long period of time? Being that the pump is only designed for the one component?
Would you need to install a reservoir when expanding it?
What was that liquid you used some kind of oil
Being someone who is completely new to watercooling, when you are first filling up the loop how does the AIO pump turn on if you are using a PSU jumper? since the pump is connected to the mobo
Hay there..great vid...one question..could all this be done with hard tubing?..
I've got to say, I didn't start watch tech YT'ers till 2018-2019 and Jay is my favorite, but I dont' know if I would watch as much J2C back in 2017. I WILL say however that the production value has improved tremendously!
This insanely corny video is almost like a snap-shot into the world where all content on UA-cam is 'Advertiser Friendly', gives me chills.
Great video guys
compare custom cooling with this.... or plz state the drawbacks... and can we add an extra radiator in to the loop...?
this was the single most interesting and most educational advertisement I've ever watched
So that pump ( or most AIO cooler pumps) are strong enough to push more water through the system?
I literally woke up this morning dreaming of fractal design.
How is the fluid movement speed compared to a standard custom loop pump? I'd worry about the life span on that AIO pump.
Hello @Jayztwocents
This is an older DIY vid and most still apply today, but would it be cool if u refreshed it with the Corsair parts.
Lets say you got a old corsair AIO for the CPU and pump died.
You wanna start real watercooling, but not wanna wast that old rad and mabey expand the system with a bigger rad 360mm or 480mm or multiple depending on case.
Add a 3000 or 4000 series Nvidia card or AMD next gen card + pump reservoir and just make it look great with limited knowledge .
Whats the things you need to look out for and what compatibility issues could arise, what would you choose if on a budget and if got more to spare but not like a full prebuild pc, hence re-using the old tech make it run cool and quiet.
Kind regards ,
Xander from the Netherlands
Wouldn't you go through the radiator to the res to the pump to the hardware so it has the maximum time to cool?
1 question. is it possible to use a
reservior with a pump or is it importent its without when the aio allready has a pump ?
You guys should've just shown Nick sitting there hitting a button that "signaled" the crowd laughter, lol. This was a nice little twist compared to your usual videos, but it's nice to see that even Fractal Design has offered a way to expand the AIO compared to just seeing EKWB come up with something like that
Only looked at the upload date a couple of minutes into the video, and this is an old product. The newer versions sold on Newegg have quick release fittings on the tubes, so I assume (but didn’t check Fractal’s website) that they [Fractal] also have the appropriate quick connect expansion parts to fit with the loop, at which point all parts of the system should still be under Fractal’s warranty.
For someone like me, this is a great idea. Say what you want, a full custom loop is scary to someone who has only built a few computers, and wants to try out water cooling.
I built my Ryzen computer a few weeks after launch, and I have been wanting to try out a nice AiO for a while. IF I decide to expand the loop, I will be using this video as a guide!
Thanks, Jay!
i would love to see this type of videos once a MONTH..i like it
Is there anyway to replace the black tubing with something clear? And can you add rads?
This is making me lead toward an S36, but are there written instructions on this anywhere? Great video, but it may be easier to find parts where I get stuck using a written guide.
Can you guys do a whole setup pricing guide/build? Pc, peripherals, etc
Love the infomercial setup! Made it feel like I was learning something new.
This was ridiculously funny! Josh's comments on Jay (presumably) going of script made me laugh my rear end of! Do more of this. Please. :D
I get that the quirky sitcom-infomercial style was done for a laugh and to mix things up, but I can't stand to watch this video for more than a minute.
Hi nice video!
Do the reservoir has an extra pump or it was just the One from the original aio?
Thanks!
It's too good. I love how fractal Josh likes to collaborate with you guys
I bet if pay cable TV was still around, this would've been the top rated TV show to watch from our master JayzTwoCents on, how to build a PC!
True question, could you use the pump of a 120 mm old asoteck and create a loop using the CPU block of ot? Or will the waterflow be too low?
