the perfect example of a gentle giant actually 💪

I wanna see this pc hoarder warehouse 😄
I love this splave guy. hes a giant mountain of a man, but hes so soft spoken, and clearly hes smart. certainly not a book to judge by the cover.
Yeah something mesmerizing bout him
He reminds of Glen Jacobs, the man who plays Kane in WWE. If you watch him out of character, he's this huge man who talks intelligently.
totally agree, he is super intimidating until he starts talking then he gives off a calm protective vibe
Just read: “cover not a judge by book the cover”
If you're judging built guys based on knowledge, well then you need to move.... Or go on holiday some time. There's a ton of tech nerds that are also gym rats/buff people. Could be any number of things making him that built, who knows, he might handle heavy servers and install them most of the day. That being said I do agree that typically buff guys are stereotyped these days, personally I blame TV shows that show muscular frat boys on shows like love island, where it's just for the drama.

That Fractal Torrent case is one of the best air flow cases you can get. But if you leave the side panel off you're killing its ability to throw air from front to back.
Question, does having the bottom fans not introduce non linear airflow (turbulence?) I can't seem to think of the proper terms
@@caidelander2561 No. The bottom fans add to the flow coming from the front 180mm fans. Along with the rear exhaust you have an overpowering flow of air from front to back that cools the whole system. The bottom fans provide so much cool air for my 3070 that the GPU fans never ramp up to high, which they always did in my old case
@@keithmaher9576 Oh okay, I just got the case and was wondering how to manage the fans
@@keithmaher9576If ever you could do you think you could run some benchmarks with and without the fans at the bottom. I'm super curious to see how massive the difference is. I always thought that the non laminar nature of having bottom fans would be problematic
If the case was small yes air would get trapped. Simply too much volume of case for air to be trapped, also the same reason testboard setups with no case get better temps because no air is being trapped.

something that has always bugged me about testing thermals is: why do they always do the tests with the case open. Having the case open effectively changes the airflow designs of the case
it dose but to be fair the stock pc case was open as well
Probably for the video, to show off the internals visually
I mean there is absolutely NO WAY that it make things " WORST " soooo...
I dont get that either, you would want to know how a case runs closed because thats how most of us runs our pcs. I guess gamernexus is the pro go to when it comes to testing thermals.
Yeah was thinking the same thing

it's pretty insane how much pcs have changed, overclocking basically isn't worth it anymore. 10 years ago you could squeeze so much extra performance out of your hardware, now they already do it in the factory.
26 years ago I overclocked a 100 MHz CPU to 133. THAT was a performance increase.
Agreed man! My current gaming rig that is about to be retired to NAS / stream rig. Has a xeon x5650, and its overclocked to 4.2 to 4.4ghz. Its base clock was roughly 2ghz. I essentially gave the damn chip an extra 2ghz. And its platform 1st gen i7 setup, it had a dang i7930 for years till i stumbled upon the ability to just throw a xeon into it.
Albeit i cannot wait to build a new rig soon
Nowadays we overclock for like 2% more performance 💀
Now, we undervolt to get 95% of the performance for 75% of the power draw.
Because a 50MHz overclock on a 200MHz CPU is a much higher percentage than a 150MHz increase on a 3.8GHz CPU.
Incredibly brave to have allowed himself to have his product be criticized not only in pre production, but in front of him! Who else would risk that? Good for him, very honest.
man, splave seems to be such a nice guy
I soooo wish Splave was a permanent ‘reoccurring character’ on LTT. He’s got such great vibes.
I guess this is the beginning of a cooperation. You will continue seeing him 💪😉

Imagine Splave and Anthony on one video
@@bnangai132 The most ambitious crossover event in history.
Splave is the perfect guest. He brigns incredible stuff, stays in the back and only interacts when asked and provides clear to the point inputs. Best part tho is how chill he comes across...no excess, no crazy shennanigans...just to the point. I enjoyed a lot this video. Technical and with great dynamic between the hosts.
I mean... It totally makes sense that he's chill.
he'd make a great permanent fixture of the team, super chill
He is a real Mensch
I agree specifically because he's with someone high energy like Linus. I like excess. I like big energy. I don't care if it's the host or the guest doing it, but Linus brings enough to the video on his own, so when he's involved it's nice to have someone kind of toned down.
@@Haecairwen If he weren't chill, his computer would have thermal throttled immediately
the fact that Splave's bluescreened several times makes me feel better about the pain I went through to get my delidded watercooled 12900k stable, it was a nightmare (watchdog timeouts for days) - but I'm very happy with what I finally ended up with!
He's like a humble giant, and with high tech knowledge :) it was relaxing to see him on video. Great video!

Splave just makes me happy. Soft spoken but extremely intelligent and calm. I wouldn't mind meeting him in person. Seems like a gentle giant. Both in stature and intellect.
Goes to show just how good automatic boost clocking is from the factory nowadays. The last time I think overclocking was really worth it is when I had a 980ti. I was able to get about 25% extra performance from it with a custom bios flash. Nowadays it’s all about low temps. It’s strange that water cooling wasn’t chosen here. A custom loop is very safe to use as long as you know what you’re doing.
even a non-custom loop is very safe as long as you pick a trustworthy company and not just go out and buy the cheapest one.
I love how humble and relaxed he is. Would love to see more of him.
Humble is easy when the machine you built BSoD. Relaxed would be tricky.

@@waterglass4171 That's subjective though. It might not be worth it for a 5% increase to you, but to others it very well will be. Also, it isn't really built for gaming; he said so himself. It's built to outperform any other workstation. Look at the difference in the memory speeds on Aida64.
you know linus is old when he's more excited about downloading the games rather than playing them.
I feel personally attacked by this comment.
being able to perceive a difference of 200 fps or 210 fps would be extremely difficult. theyve already played games on top end pcs. what they havent seen are just the number differences in some of the processes.
I relate at the tender age of 22
I feel old now for enjoying installing all kinds of Linux distros more than actually using them 😅🤣
I've always been more excited by the hardware than the games. I'm just a hardware kind of guy.
12:30 though it's worth pointing out, the huge fans up front might be able to push more of that hot GPU air out of the back with the side panel on.
Seems like such a sweet guy, very knowledgeable as well.

hello lolfire
😂😂😂 pretty much exactly what I was think.
Twist is that Splave is the one being held hostage by the LTT mafia & threatened because he’s terrified of being on camera
12:30 You should have also tried with the side panel in place because with that amount of fans, it's possible that the thermals are better with sides closed.
true
Exactly what I came to the comments wondering about
THANK YOU
beat me to it
i came to comments to see if someone was going to bring this up.
I love watching these videos cause I know damn well I’ll never be able to afford or do this stuff myself, about to build a pc for the first time though
Power and wireless interference aside, with the side of the case off you are interrupting the optimal air flow out the back. Splave specifically mentioned it wasn't an issue with the GPU blowing into the CPU cooler. With the proper ducting in place (aka close up the case) you might not have seen some of the issues you did. It's such a fine-tuned system that interrupting the airflow the way you did will skew the results.
Allen seems like such a gentle giant. i love this idea aswell. a way for overclockers to actually earn money for their hard work
Yes. The case fans could direct more fresh air towards the coolers and remove hot air better if set up well
I remember when I built my old PC in early 2012, Steam would let you download however much your connection could handle at once. I queued up a bunch of downloads when I was at home, but wanted to download stuff using the T3 connection at work instead of my DSL. When I booted it up and Steam started, the entire system was unusable until Steam was done downloading those games. So yeah, I believe it when you say Steam downloads are a good CPU test.
Oh yeah they’ll tank your whole system lol I have a modest 11400 but that shit will hit 80% downloading games
That would require having a fast enough connection in the first place.
Ive been building for a while but never got into OC too much. With OC i think the problem will be stability. For one person X OC settings will be completely fine where for the other it will cause a blue death.
For casual people stock stuff will be more than fine.

it feels like he constantly wants to fold linus 8 times like a paper lmao
😹

he's probably just nervous of being judged all the time, wonder why...
@@epzaqzazazazazaz3580 you could have just said nervous in this case, as he's being featured on a youtube channel with millions of subscribers. any number of reasons to be nervous in that regard. you're making up an alternative reality saying it's because of him being judged on size. just like abrahem ferrer made it up saying it felt like he wanted to fold linus 8 times like a paper.
Nice one, few people know you can only fold paper 7 times, its not a joke ...
Isn't the lack of side panel actually a disadvantage in this case? I mean, with that many fans surely the airflow must be superb and actually required to evacuate the hot air properly
thats what i was thinking
If they both have side panels off it is at least fair comparison
Not really due to convection and having that much open space for air to escape , any hot air will naturally rise up and out of the case no fans needed , while if your limited to just one fan and the toatall pressure of the case pulling exhaust heat , it will accumulate faster due to those restrictions in airflow
@@lucidx2 convection isn't doing anything with that much airflow. What I could see happening is more of the air coming off the GPU being sucked in by the CPU cooler, because the air from the intake fans is escaping out the side instead of forcing it out the back of the case.
this is the very smart thought
The way components are bought in bulk and selected by speed sounds like the way 8-Pac does his rigs at overclockers, except he selects them from a full pallet load of parts. Have a feeling this will be special.
cool mod with the front grill i had the same idea today, thinking about copper or rust or just matt blcak.

Look at this gem of a video! You guys are actually under rated.
I know this was a series you guys hinted at a while back but all these 'ghost' computer problems and troubleshooting. There is something there but it's probably so hard to pin down and articulate in a video especially for ppl who don't understand the weird computer glitches between hardware, software, and multiple devices
Linus making Allen talk to the camera so he can grow as a presenter is super nice!
speaking of a good employer here 🙏
Did you really thermal test the fractal torrent with the side panel open? You know that's a positive pressure case... Right?
EDIT: Dude, no, seriously, make the test again. The hole glory of that case is that the pressure coming from the front fans makes almost impossible for the gpu temps to reach the CPU cooler. Is literally the case with the best temps on the market while also being positive pressure.
Alex ran the benchmarks before they actually made this video. Pay attention to the part where he quotes the 5% performance increase in gaming.
@@GeekProdigyGuy Did he have the case open though? I hope not.
@@GeekProdigyGuy Still, in the video they are using the case open while also having thermal throttling with a thermocyphon...
They are not even mentioning that you should NOT use a possitive pressure case open if you want decent temps.

In a situation like this, I would connect the pc to an isolated AC output as well as an AC transient filter. That will prevent ground looping and smooth out rapid changes in voltage and frequency of the AC from the grid
Since you mentioned having a UPS, how about some videos on testing the benefits of having one? Or perhaps some different use cases.
Personally, I have small UPS units for both my tower and my internet. I'm planning to get a third when I set up a NAS device. I also have family who keep a UPS connected to the kids' TV.
I've considered getting one, but the idea of having to mess with replacing and dispose of the batteries every 5 years kind of turns me off of it, and I seem to have pretty stable power where I live. I'd also like to see a more in depth video on the subject.
@@tinitis4144 You're concern over battery replacement is a good thing for them to test.
maybe you have to watch linus as long as i have in order to get the jokes.. but, they're not ACTUALLY recommending to get a UPS. they're saying if you get the Splave PC, which they low-key don't recommend, because, Linus mentioned 4 times about not liking the cooler in it, and also low-key mentioned that aside from the top-binned silicon, it's essentially the same as their machine, only 5% faster.... you could get 5% faster than stock just by using EVGA precision X OC and upping your video card a bit... so, i mean, 5% is literally nothing in terms of overclocking performance. (but overclocking doesn't really ever get anyone much more performance anyhow... but i think they were expecting better given that this guy is ranked number 1 in overclocking) anyway, they mentioned the UPS because they were running two 1500W (approximately) power supplies, which, together at full power, means they're going over the maximum amperage allowed on a typical home power circuit (i.e. it'll blow the breaker). he also mentions that their machine is $5100, but this guy doesn't know how much his machine is going to sell for yet.... linus throws shade at that in the end. linus basically ripped this guy a new one, but did it in a very passive aggressive way, and i think it might have been easy to miss, but i assure you, don't worry about a UPS (unless you're a business or streamer or something, but even then, nowadays, how often does your power REALLY go out? where I'm at, it almost never goes out even during storms), i also assure you that linus and team would recommend just spending your money on a water cooler and doing some overclocking yourself. Linus even says that intel and manufacturers guarantee their products will work at any ambient temperature, which he could not say the same for the Splace PC. IF that's not ripping dude a new one, i don't know what is. Trust me, Don't give this Splave PC another thought, and don't worry about the UPS slight-of-hand joke at the end there.
weird quote from linus with the 1000+$ tower.
Maybe it is just a NA problem with shitty power but here in europe I haven't heard from anyone that they actually use one.
For a home server with important data it is another story but even in businesses for normal worker's computer (that still have important data), they don't use ups's.
I also don't remember the last time when power was off. I think 3 years ago
@@tirkentube 16:35 he literally says "anyone with a PC that's worth more than, I'd say $1000 in the tower, should have a UPS on it". $1k is a far cry from the $12k number I keep seeing repeated here.
You should've kept the side panel on the Splave for better results. In a closed environment the fans can suck much more fresh air over the CPU/GPU coolers.
[citation needed]
Doubt it, components usually run at their peak in open air. Cases serve to protect the parts of the PC, and case fans are there to mitigate the side effect of heat buildup. With the side panel off the GPU can be exhausting its heat directly out of the case while the bottom fans feed it fresh air. They should have kept the side panel on though, but for the opposite reason, because the components are probably running cooler than normal with it off.

After years of obsessing over case fans (noctua) and cooling and silence, I have found piece in my O11D Evo (3x120 bottom intake, 3x120 top exhaust, 1x120 rear exhaust, 2x140 Side Exhaust Arctic LFII AIO, 3090 FTW3 Vertical kit to ice the backside vram). It’s silent, the temps are legit a little over an average-ish custom loop, it’s insane and finally got me to stop tinkering. Havent even opened it up outside of the (very rarely req’d AT ALL) dusting.
But when the Torrent came out I almost traded my Mini Air in for the Fractal. If I wasnt floored by the silent performance king at $109 Arctic LFII 280, I would’ve strapped on my trusted, triple 140mm fanned, DH-14, and just BLASTED it and the EVGA 3090 FTW3, with the dual monster 180mm’s and triple 140mm’s.
- the beauty of a great air cooler for tinkering Case Fan dorks like me, is that you can always try and squeeze more out of say, an NH-D14/D15, by feeding them fresh air, or creating wind tunnels from front -> NHD15 -> out through rear. Or changing layouts, orientation, or FANS themselves, or cases.
So the Torrent was so appealing, to see how quietly it can blast the back of a 3090 and its vrams. Not as interesting here since the 3090ti uses bigger vram chips and keeps em all on one side.
Splave stares at linus like "i swear to god don't touch it or drop it... I made it perfect" the amount of time and effort to get it to this stage must be insane
it's not, you apply a cooler, set some stuff in the bios, and that's all. most of the work is done long before you start the specific system by reading up on what certain settings do.
@@cheater00 fine tuning a CPU overclock can take less than an hour but fine tuning ram to be stable takes a very long time
I love this guy (the overclocker)
His mood is just out of this world.
I lol'd so much on this vid! TY guys!
These should be on separate Curcuits for a true test.
Imagine if he was a car guy. The tuning 🤯👌
I am absolutely transfixed by the demeanor of Splave. I need a LOT more of his chill in my life.
damn splave looks like he can and ready to ripped someone apart but man what a gentle giant he is
Exactly what I hoped to see today :)
this is one of my favourite videos, it feels so relaxed and kind of unplanned
8:10
Linus: "...he's all cocky..."
Splave: _[in the kindest way possible]_ Heyyy!!!
I was under the impression that the IceGiant prosiphon was better for AMD multi-chiplets that spread the heat more evenly because the aluminum didn't pick up the heat from the Intel die and move it efficiently into the liquid.
I am very worried about the travel-ability of that thing, I was looking for brackets or something that would hold the card and/or heatsink for travel.
Looking forward to the video.
This was like looking Ruby Rhod interview Korben Dallas. Great.
“When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang out.” - Abraham Lincoln
sounds kinda morbid even tho its not
What does that have to do with the video...
@@TryxGmd Abraham Lincoln is famous for his gaming PC building advice, duh
@@mahlonsale6216 if he was never assassinated, we would have better gaming PC's
@@mahlonsale6216 oh i forgor💀
"just please don't kill the card 🥺"
i love him
It annoys me so much that all these FLOW cases have the mother board lined up in the direction where the heat sink blades on most of the equipment do not flow with the direction of air. Heat rises, you can see the path of flow is up and sideways instead of it all just flowing up.
Without CFD or back to back real world testing, it's just speculation.
That Toast-Linus graphic was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣💯🇨🇦
Splave seems like an awesome guy. Would love to see more with him.
@Splave is a true master of his craft. Just the knowledge he has stored in his head is amazing!
Well, I really the guy, but, his build crashed how many times?
And yes, I get there may have been shipping mistakes.
true master of 5% gain, LOL! so let's see the price and the cost of these 5%, no? i wonder why...
@@benwu7980 It was because the other pc was sucking too much power out of the same circuit
@@thicclatina5346 It was still his build that crashed.
@Transistor Jump as above, it was still his build that crashed, repeatedly
16:38 never thought I'd feel so proud to own a UPS.
finally!!! you talked about UPS!! you need quality power, is a must. (MGE, later EATON and APC guy)
Recently I actually thought it would be cool to make those fins out of copper in the Torrent case.
Well, they almost did it
Making fins copper doesn't make much sense. Copper is better at metal to metal heat transfer than Aluminium, but Aluminium is better at metal to air heat transfer
@@Reac2 Not for heat transfer, just for esthetics. The air will pass through anyway
@@pumpkinLive *aesthetics
@@pumpkinLive the air will pass through, but it'll be less efficient, and copper is ~3x more expensive per kg
@@pumpkinLive Could do a plated fin stack. Might not be good to use actual copper (bc of tarnishing) but the look would be cool....
Now you've got me thinking of a gold plated fin stack just for the heck of it.

This is why I am an advocate for horizontal motherboards/cases.
Gravity is also nicer to large heavy components that are going to be resting inside a computer case for multiple years.

They existed. They were called "Desktop" computers (and they were also called-that because they went ontop of your desk (ie. your "desktop")). The ones that you see right-now (that stand vertically) were-called "Tower" computers because they looked like "towers[/castle towers]".
Funny thing that Linus advertised Drop keyboards while using Keychron Q3 in the video
We need more splave contents.
