I think Optimum Tech mentioned that the terra won't support for self contained waterloop. But you should check his channel as he made a full waterloop in a similar sized case which is just an ITX masterpiece
'defeats the purpose' yeah its not meant to support custom watercooling. If that rocks your boat GGF did an amazing system here which fits within the confines of the super small mini itx case ua-cam.com/video/Ukh4M9Wkn78/v-deo.html. it is highly, no extremely compromised. This build in the terrai is all about 'eat your cake and have it too.' extremely high end hardware, performing at spec, quietly. If you don't want to see the rad box, extend the tubing put it under the desk. Sacrifices portability and practicality BUT its a hardline watercooled system so yeah... that was already out the window. its a work of flipping art. very much a panicle of why not? It doesn't need to make sense
@@shiddygaymer it's made for air cooled ITX, not water cooled. And with it being aircooled, it's actually very decent and highly recommended by a lot of reviewers
@@shiddygaymer does it beg the question? why do you schools exist? think of all the wasted time and money spent on you, so you can be make this stupid comments on YT
I gotta Hand it to you Stuart, honestly, your build quality and also your video production design, camera work and editing is easily the best in the business. Only Optimum Tech comes close to replicating your edit and video production design. I watch every one of your videos and you are a god amongst us mere mortals.
I realize your options were super limited, but having that giant exterior radiator tower defeats the whole design philosophy of the terra. Thing looks like its on dialysis
In his case, it is like a dialysis machine that pumps blood, but doesn't clean blood at all: he messed up fans; the fans push air from both sides of the radiator.🤦♀ The fans effectively cancel out each other. The fans will scream, but the CPU will be throttled anyway.
It's really nice work, but IMHO defeats all the purpose of small sff build with Terra. Maybe some adaptation making the Terra taller with 240mm radiators on bottom and top would work well with some distro plate for the sides, but I guess that there is better SFF cases for this :).
Having the radiators cooled in a separate external case defeats the purpose of having a sff case like this fractal. Might as well go with a case with higher volume and can fit everything into it
Kind of I think the better idea is to run the lines across the room or to a different room in the house so you just have the Terra on your desk and the radiator somewhere else. I personally would just go for a MORA or similar to get max cooling.
With this particular build I agree. Only time I would do this is if I was running a massive radiator like a mo-ra or something like dual 480mm that wouldn’t fit inside
coolermaster np200p max is awesome, it comes with aio cpu watercooler and powersupply for 300$. one of my friends had it. i just went bulky and versitile with a NZXT H9.
I always watch your videos on full screen to take it all in. The editing was on point along with the build. Down the the music and screws being removed together.. details are always carefully planned .. awesome.
The "cheat" was definitely worth it and can be given a pass. This build is magnificent. The pastel teal with wooden accent, the silver fittings and tubes, exceptional.
If the "cheat" was just tubes going into the nether and we never see the rads then it wouldn't be a great build. But the external cooling is executed so incredibly well that I'm actually considering copying you. This is absolutely gorgeous. Well done!
I see the beauty and need for this design. Personally, I'd keep the pc next to me for the admiration of it, but with longer hoses, I'd put the radiators on the other side of a wall so can't see or hear a thing.
I can't take away the awesomeness of your builds including this one but this exposes the weakness of the Terra. The limited room within that chasis for Fans/Radiator etc is why this case, too me, is only really built for air cooling. Everyone seems to be going crazy over this case when the FormD T1 has been out for a couple of years now including the latest version which provides many more options in configurations etc. If ya ask me, only the wood look is what's nice about this case, outside of that, there are much better options. Outside of my opionion here on the case itself, the build is amazing!
I was wondering how are you going to solve watercooling in this case but the last thing I expected was to build another case for it... Hard to call it SSFPC at this point, although kudos for good execution.
Yes!! This was why I wanting to know about mixing fluids, trying to match or get close to the wood tone. I’ve seen bourbon theme PCs with clear brown fluid that doesn’t look awful. I like the quick connect tube connector and sleeving. I was wanting to have that look but instead of stainless steel in all black or black stainless steel. This is truly awesome though, love the green and wood and you staining the accent, you’re definitely giving me some ideas! The reservoir is going to be the biggest pain in the north though, I like the water box with this though
Awesome sauce here. I saw your water temp. We live pretty close to each other. I’m in Temecula and that’s what my water temp is at idle right now. This summer is hot!
I’d love to see a video going into more detail about the builds modifications. I love the case, but the heat generated is too much over longer sessions. Doing an external solution seems cool.
you are a genius! the external rad enclosure fitting with the case is true art! I just finished a Sff build with an rtx 4090 and my slim 30x240 rad is clearly not enough… how do you make your plastic pieces for passtrough fittings? 3d print?
That's actually pretty cool. Would have been neeeear impossible, but I would have liked to have seen a rad in the main case even a 120. Just enough to run it.. maybe slow and loud, maybe to take it to a LAN. Then when at home, hook it back up to the external rads for that maximum cooling/quiet/overclock.
I've seen just about every single one of your build videos and this is my favorite out of them all. True masterclass at display. The ability to innovate and create in small cases is the future of PC's. One thing I would've done different for sake of stability would be to add some AF-10's(40x10 fans) so that passively cooled components that would typically have airflow from a cpu air cooler or case fans would be cooled. Other than that, it's perfection. Ik this was sponsored by bitspower but some EK lignum fittings would've been sick too 😂
LMFAOx1Mil, man talk about burying the lead in that thumbnail, i literally jumped around trying to see how they managed to fit RADIATORS & FANS inside such a tiny case 🤣 then I saw it, great job 👌👏👏🏻👏🏼👏🏿
wondering when can we see the mods in depth video? especially keen to see how you put the cover in front of the fans as I m looking to buy one for my build, I have a compressor to cool my sytsem now but bit too noisy. cheers
The build, the modifications, the planning, the skill, the editing, the music.... By God Almighty, you are amazing - thank you for sharing! Hope all is well with you and your family, God Bless!
amazing, this is the style of builds im in for sure. one Q, why the WC pipe conection its vertical in one case and horizontal in the otrher case? sry my OCD
The build looks great, I don't mind the external cooler, the aesthetic works very well. I do have 2 curious questions though: 1, what is cooling the VRMs on the motherboard? 2, your in game CPU temps look about the same as mine and I'm air-cooled (albeit a much less powerful processor), is the GPU dumping in to the CPU in the loop? The GPU temps looked fantastic.
usually the more powerful processors run much hotter so its not the same unless you compare with the same processor. I have a i9 13900kf and its a monster but it definitely hard to cool.
Looking forward to the follow up video. I built myself a custom radbox, inspired by your previous MORA build. More of an external frame. 2x 360 rads side by side in an ALU2020 frame. The sort of frame designed for external mITX builds. Its great and I love the idea. I have a loop temp sensor plugged into an ancient fan controller that will need an upgrade when I do the mitx build. Torn between Corsair Commander XT or an AQUA Octo. Need some advice there. Unfortunately shipping AQUA gear to Australia is expensive. Would love to hear your words on the Barrow Rad box too. Beautiful as always mate.
This represents the pinnacle of art for me, and you are the Michelangelo of this craft. I dream that one day you will construct a machine just for me. Thank you for this extraordinary content.
when you're into hardware and beautiful builds, this one is definitively a turn-on.
Now this is the sickest build that I have ever seen. Kudos to you guys!
Bro at this rate, you guys will be the only absolute water cooling pc build champions!
I mean this cool, no doubt…. But defeats the purpose of the case. I was hoping for a completely contained build.
Incredible work, nonetheless

This is possibly the most beautiful build I have ever seen! Those steel braided hoses and colour combo in general are just incredible looking.
I can't wait to see your deep dive into the external radiator housing along with wiring.

one of the sickest builds I have ever seen. Beautiful. I want to do something like this, but with the black terra.
I've never been more excited to see 8 screws get removed. 5:57. Great video Bravo
The reservoir being separate from the main pc is very striking and I am in love with it.
I always watch your videos on full screen to take it all in. The editing was on point along with the build. Down the the music and screws being removed together.. details are always carefully planned .. awesome.
You're the first I see attempting this madness... and I love it.
Thank you
Now I am considering buying a 2nd NZXT H1 and use the first one as a heat dissipation device...
This is breath taking honestly I can't describe how perfect this thing is.
Another fantastic video to give us a glimpse of another piece of art you made ! Can't get enough of it ! Thank you for sharing your journey with us !
Thank you!
When you start to wonder where the rads are, then guitar solo starts, and then companion case shows up? CHILLS.
Hehe
The "cheat" was definitely worth it and can be given a pass. This build is magnificent. The pastel teal with wooden accent, the silver fittings and tubes, exceptional.
Thank you
This is an awesome continuation of the ITX external cooling setup, glad to see that this genre got carried on from the phanteks shift xt build
I saw this teaser in the previous video. Was looking forward to it. It did not disappoint!
Perfect build, perfect soundtrack.
This matches my Alex drawers soo well. The build that I wanted, became the build I NEEDED!
Me thinking someone finally figured out and within 5 minutes realizing I need a metal fab shop :D. Serious though. This looks amazing.
Reminds me of Robert Williams and his Hot Rodding from the 50s and 60s,onwards.
Brilliant build.
Whoah!! we are now in whole new territory man. Fantastic work!!
Dude the music is so relaxing that i slept the entire video
Epic dude. External cooling is the way IYKYK
How brilliant, love the external cooling solution, also yawls part breakdowns are legit, answered every question I have!
This is something else! Fantastic artistry. 😲
Thank you
Efing amazing build, and the OST `chef kiss`
Beautiful.Well done.

Thank you. Yes I didn't want to just slap on a mora rad like most do and call it it a day. I wanted something more pleasing and functional
I see the beauty and need for this design. Personally, I'd keep the pc next to me for the admiration of it, but with longer hoses, I'd put the radiators on the other side of a wall so can't see or hear a thing.
I love this build. I have reconsidering an external water loop.
Just a quick question, how does the hot air disperses from the tower radiator? Is there a bottom fan to push the hot air to the top?
I don't understand how you manage to improve your productions over and over
Really nice and very original. Thanks.

Yes. No point really. But a pretty sick build really. 😂
Incredible Build
Oh might be a new favorite here! Very awesome work! So much inspiration! Keep it coming!
Money Time & Talent, superb build and great presentation as well= Bravo

The only thing the game play bit is missing is the live commentary as that shit is priceless ;)
now let's wait for mold to set in the loop and call it "Terrarium"
All cooling liquids have antibacterial in them. Mold does not happen.
Never had mold in my build, been running for 2 years now. Dont buy cheap ones then. lol
@@Inguiseyou must be real fun at parties.
@@MalfunctioningAndroid oh please. Im the type that keeps the party going. While you go home early cause moma's calling 🤣

You are my master! Thats awesome build man!!!
Im loving this build
6:27 is so good, I could play Westworld opening soundtrack with it.
Great music, reminds me of a series that ran a couple seasons called Halt and Catch Fire.
Holy bro, aesthetic!!! Totally a pice of art :))))))))
Beautiful build!!!!!

Guess that’s the nice thing having a smaller channel. I get to take breaks in the summer:)
A another episode of "Pure PC Art" ❤️
My next build will be something similar, liquid cooled with a external pump/radiator combo.
Ooof reminds me of the Dan A4 H2O build i did 2 years ago with a MORA360. Looks awesome!
Pretty groovy 80 sci-fi movie music. I love it
Great work.
incredible ! powerful! omg, amazing. Fd cases my luv
So practical! An sff case that needs another sff case to function. Absolutely brilliant!
Thank you?
@@GGFEvents 🤣
How do you guys power the external cooling system and control the fans?
Holy shit that loop is insane

What a clean build!
Мне кажется я получил зрительный оргазм.))) Прекрасная работа мастера. Сколько стоит это чудо???
How can we get our hands on the custom components you used for water cooling in this case?
Have you made a video going into detail yet? like connecting the GPU to the main computer and temps
Bro woke up and said let’s do the impossible today.
Thanks for sharing... I'm curious to know VRMOS and PCH temps, can you, please, share them?

wow great build. what paint color did you use. i see you say custom. but was it a custom made color or just a custom paint job
Amazing build as always, would liek to know what is the material you used to make your own case barrier?
Omg i knew it! I knew that somebody made custom loop in terra )
Define "in"?
