WE’RE LEAKING WATER
Linus said he wanted LTT to be the Top Gear of computers, a few years back. With this one, I'd say he's succeeded. Totally on par with burning down their own caravan when going camping, or making a V8 powered blender.
Would love to see a "non-rushed" version of this tho, maybe with a nice case or something for the radiator
Maybe using a matching fan that’s designed to go into a car, instead of multiple smaller fans.
Oh man, you could say this about so many linus projects.
I agree. I have a half-assed peltier/water cooler project I've made, and the one thing I spent time on was making sure it didn't leak. Would've also been neat to see how it compared to a 360 rad after the water temp reached its max.
@@roberts_lancmanis agreed, seemed purposely rushed/dumb
Try going to carquest, AutoZone, O'Riley's. And get the correct hose for the radiator. Maybe get a proper radiator fan or something like a 12-14" fan for it. Then maybe not mount it on the top of the tower? Lol. Thanks for the good lol though 😂
“Should we build, leak proof, and then test the water cooling system?”
Linus: “Nah, we should 100% just start the CPU stress test and then quickly build a cooling system around a running computer while shoving towels in leaks like we’re trauma surgeons trying to save the computer version of 50 Cent after getting shot 12 times”
But the likes
9 times
This is stand-up ready line right here, got laughed
What an ungodly comparison 🤣🤣
If more people looked at LTT comment sections you would have max comments
Beautiful, was like watching open heart surgery with a veterinarian and a mechanic. ♥
Horse surgeon.....
Hey dude wtf 😅 I'm a vet MD and we do open heart surgery. And if trained properly a mechanic might actually be useful in that situation.
P.S. Human doctors can't treat 30 different species. Just sayin😏😂😁
This is the most chaotic LTT video I've ever seen, and that's really saying something.
I haven't had a good laugh like this in awhile. We need more of this kind of chaos!
The struggle was real. I loved it.
Fax
This is like 2013-14 Linus
I’d love to see them tackle this again, but ya know, actually do it well 😂
Agreed. This is just a huge train wreck.
Hey nice to see you here! Big fan of your videos!
I Really I hope they do it again, but more planned out. We know how Linus likes to milk his investments
Omg me too
I know, all that money and production and most of the time they are fucking useless at engineering
Easily the most stressful build I've ever seen on LTT. Not sure if they intentionally wanted this to fail to generate more clicks or if they just did a bad job in general. Reminds me of when they used a PC to heat a room using a heater and nearly destroyed a PC because they used an old heater filled up with rust, debris and minerals.
I mean sometimes people are dumbasses lol
This was janky, even for you guys! LOL
I have been using a copper core radiator for a decade. Meant to fit into a Geo Metro, I soldered some brass plate across the main openings and then soldered in some 3/8 female NPT fittings on each end. Coupled with a single 360mm fan, it keeps up with dual RTX3090's and a 5900x. After the water is completely heat saturated, it hovers around 40c with CPU Temps never exceeding 65c under 100% system load for hours on end.
It works a treat, boys.
Holy shit please link a picture to it ahahah
Thanks for the tips. Geo Metro radiator looks nice and small. I'm gunna build something similar - a small (for a car) radiator with a single big fan, maybe even the stock fan undervolted
Honestly, if this was like a legit project and not just a 20 minute throw together idea, id love to see how cool the system got.
Same, i had high hopes but after wathcing it i dont even see the point of making it.
You can literally watch a pc build with a mo-ra and check right now lol.
It would have probably dropped another 5-10 degree
Yeah me too,this video was pointless tho. If the were serious they would have stopped the leaks to begin with. Disliked.
Make the entire computer a radiator, like the all fan case
LTT - Has a full workshop capable of basically, making anything they want.
Builds a full on rad with nothing but puddy, zip ties and a bike condom.
LTT - Has hose clamps...only uses them on the small adapters instead of the ones leaking from zip ties
@@christopherangell7579 Yea, I thought so aswell - but then you got to realise that... they probably do not have clamps for THAT size! XD
(Still, they should have bought some... Doesn't make it less stupid that they did this shit and did it ONTOP of a PC, without propper clamps.)
@@Vodhr you know you can interconnect multiple hose clamps
u can't use claps on 2 soft tubes
Could have put that rad literally anywhere else. Nope! Put it on TOP, so it leaks directly into the system. Brilliant!
That top fin cooler, you accidently explained why some dinosaurs had backfins, The fins presumably served as heat collectors for these small, cold-blooded reptiles. Over the last decade or so, the pelycosaur model has been extended to several large, spiny dinosaurs that lived in Africa roughly 100 million years ago and may have had fins to help warm or cool their blood.
Late addition, but, ELEPHANTS also use the same concept but instead of back fins, they use their ears. Large surface area with blood vessels to cool down blood temperature in the scorching savana. They also flap them like a handfan to cool down even faster.
oh man all this sheer pandemonium between the leakage, topping up the reservoir, and getting all the fans was so raw and uncut. It's beautiful!
This is one of those projects you REALLY REALLY shouldn't rush, and oh boy did they rush it
This is worse than alex covering an extreme edition cpu with nutella and mustard and than washing it in the sink.
The (WAN) show must go on!
@@alinapaasz1841 xd
this is cyberpunk 2077 as LTT project
yeah but this video wouldn't be nearly as entertaining otherwise
You know it’s intense when you see Alex literally standing on the table
Nice to meet u here :D
One reply and 1k like
Wow
This video is the MOST Linus I have seen Linus in quite a while. I love it. Moar pls.
Right? It's like they're determined to use zip ties, or have never heard of self-fusing silicon tape.
"Find the spots where rags aren't wet, and move them into spots where rags are wet" LOL.. this was such a clusterfuck and I loved every second of it.
I too would love to see a non-rushed version and use copper pipe reducers to get down to your pipe size then the bicycle tubing and hose clamps for the connectors. Could be pretty cool. Maybe make all the connections before connecting the power and turning it on? lol

They never tried to fix the leaks though

@@darwinspooks1 a car fan and a car pump would have cooled that 10900k well above a normal water cooler

"Oh god, it's so big."
Uh...
I feel like that’s 90% of their videos really
@@JinghisKhan Uhh.... iceberg?
GirlBaBes.Men
It would be absolutely awesome to see the whole thing again in good build quality!
Would love to see an updated version of this after you guys get an understanding of how a car cooling system works. You can get joints to step down the cooling lines properly and not have leaks. Also I'd recommend an older rad that does not have a trans cooler, but if you cannot find one you can plug the smaller PC rad into the system to work as a trans rad.
You don't need to step down shit if something is properly sealed...
@@Alcoholic_Nerd the stepdown as referred to in the video is due to the largest pc pipe being smaller than the smallest car rad line. Yes a stepdown of the hoses is still needed unless you modify the pipes on the car rad.
Edit: Vehicle manufacturers use a system of transfer points to achieve stepping down and up the cooling lines. The 2 points that Lynus could utilize for this project are the water pump which has a larger input than output and the crossover pipe which typically has multiple smaller inputs converge into a larger output. The crossover on newer cars also houses the thermostat which may improve performance of this system should they pressurize it like a vehicle cooling system.
@@joshuatayloe8616 I too am frustrated by their attempt to do this. They wouldn't need an older rad, they would just need a rad from a manual car. Would cost em 30 dollars to find a big nice used radiator, and they could save even more money by just using radiators electric fan (which is 12v). If a radiator is able to cool a running engine down to let's say 30-40 degrees with no thermostat, then it will more than likely be very effective at cooling down a cpu or gpu.
I don't think people would actually care if they had to have a big radiator on the outside of their pc, especially if it meant they could finally run the latest i9s at operating temps.
@@ASDASD34RDFS all of these are very good points although i'm pretty sure engines run closer to 70 degrees celsius.
@@Lazulcat Engines run closer to 80-90 degrees celsius, or at least the coolant does. The oil temp is higher than that. And if you did not have a radiator you engine would run so hot it would quite literally explode. If a radiator is capable of cooling down 4-8 cylinders that have thousands of explosions in them every minute. Then surerly one radiator could cool down a processor. There is a lot of heat in an engine.

“Let’s put the radiator on top of the computer. What could go wrong?”
*20 minute video ensues.
Eyyyy
yeah. it was all scripted.
oh hi erik
Why put it on the top and risk the leak? Put it aside by side
Woow, I just discovered you last night :)
I've watched thousands of car vids and hundred of your pc tech vids .... I only heard about this video thru the vortex air cooled video .... but this is so something I would watch because it was a crazy mod video that sounds crazy ... love it
I did something like this, but I was using a Ford heater core instead of the radiator. By the way, they do make reducers from the radiator main dow to water cooling sizes.
I love how LMG basically has an engineering dept. and somehow manages more Jank than Jayztwocents.

If this is how your senior year engineering project goes you need to find a much better school. This would have been an F in my highschool automotive class. And we have come up with better solutions in battle damage repair training on fighter jets in the Air Force, and they hold 3,000 psi.

@@Kienbaum123 hehehehe... hehe
yup and exactly what if feels like to change a rad on a pt cruiser... they built those things around the body lol
This is why I love this channel because you build and test stuff on video not experiment off camera and make sure it works then show us the cooling test to see if it's a practical solution.
I have a very good idea for this. But this requires long tubes, and living in a winter place. Stick it outside mounted next to a window, cover it with some anti freeze stuff and even furnaces to keep it from freezing, but the water/ coolant will be super cold and keep the cpu (and gpu if you water cool it) super cool and chilled. Except you would possibly need another pump to pump from the radiator to the pc, so it'd be in the middle.
I want to see a non-leaky version of this with multiple computers hooked up to it.
I mean a long time ago now they did try to water cool all of the computers at linus tech tips with one water cooling loop. Didn't work too well in the end lol
that’s called “whole room water cooling project”
Eh, I use about the same on my fpga mining rig, instead of crazy it is actually reasonable when you are running that much hardware.
Whole house water cooling. He made a video series making a single loop for multiple computers with easy connect.
@@MrMillyBob I wanna see an update version. Maybe with insulated pipes for the cool water. IDK, I think they could make a couple videos on it. They do already have the car radiator.
*Literally all this chaos could have been avoided if they stopped, spent maybe 5 minutes to properly seal the ends, and started it back up again.*
or just put it next to the pc instead of on top of it...
Dude, it is Linus Tech Tips, crazy over correct
Hose clamps. They're a thing.
yes but watching them drive the computer like its a space ship in warp drive is killing me
it was annoying to watch cuz I was so interested in the premise and got nothing conclusive
I laughed really hard seeing Alex and Linus giving their best to get something out of this idea xD
20 yrs ago car radiators were what everyone used. There were a handful of cars that were known to have radiators that could easily be shrouded for 1-2 120mm fans (or bigger if you liked). As I remember, there really was minimal advantage to going bigger unless you were trying to go passive.
20 years ago was only 2003......
@@Alcoholic_Nerd Well 20-30 years ago. Before there really were over the counter water cooling kits, or at least any that were worth using. Haven't kept up exactly on the scaling of thermal load from cpu's and gfx... but casual observation says cpus haven't increased much, while gfx have gone up 100-200 watts or so... shouldn't really impact the size of a radiator required for liquid... guys were running systems with TECs on top of their CPU's and GFX without scaling up systems much if at all; which was probably pushing them to about the thermal load of a modern system.
They were the heater cores, a radiator this big is designed for levels of airflow that won't be achieved inside a house without a turbofan.
lmao, what chaos did I just watch? 😅

For future reference: Radiator hose to the proper diameter of iron pipe, to PEX. Reducers are available, and you'll have a watertight loop.
i actually used a setup like this for a while. i used the ac condenser out of a Chrysler Pacifica along with the dual 10" fans that were on it from the factory. i ran the fans in series of the 5 volt rail of a Molex connector. if you cut off the threaded fitting on the condenser you get 2 lines with ~.5" outer diameters which is about perfect to force on some coolant lines. the cool thing about this. is the radiator is big enough that my temperatures did not change when i had the fans on or off
and of course naturally because it didn't fit in a case i just screwed it all to the drywall. drywall in non conductive for the 12 volts computer operate on and never had any problems with leaks or thermals

This was probably the most fun LTT video to date
Me at the beginning of this video "Wow I'm glad they have a legit workshop and can do projects like this correctly
Me halfway through "Oh god"
You must be new here
It actually probably would have been amazing but they did a really bad job sealing those pipe connections.
@Scott Myers This would be a much different video if they were to be more prepared and professional. Videos like these are great
Doing it correctly? That's no fun!
@Scott Myers But doing things correctly is boring
I'm guessing the video planning went like this:
"Should we plan?"
"No, chaos gets more likes."
More dislikes for sure
There may be a bit of truth in that. Linus getting impatient because he's late for WAN Show also doesn't help.
This felt borderline channel super fun. It was jank, made me laugh so much, and was fun.
Linus' "okay" at 7:18 is literally my response every single time the new guy comes up with an "idea" in my shop
"Do we spend 30 minutes designing and 3d printing a watertight adapter, or try to ziptie loose flappy rubber?"
That would realistically take at least two hours
They could have just used glue to make it watertight and it would have worked xD
There is something like a "hot glue pistol" thats really cheap and super usefull :)

Flashbacks to whole room water cooling.
Less bodily harm than the studio tour.
Whole Editing Room Water-cooling incoming? Lol
This was absolute chaos and I loved every minute of it!
The transmission cooler lines are not only for cooling. They're in there to heat the coolant faster (because transmission oil heats up very fast) and after that to help maintain the operating temp of the transmission oil.
This has the energy of one of those ridiculous reality cooking shows where they have a half hour to make a thing.

I can't believe how many poor decisions they made in a row.
Yeah I feel like if it was just positioned beside the pc it would be awesome
They took the time to order a radiator, but didn’t get plastic couplers. Which auto parts would have had, it would just take 2-3 of them.
Bro even I could make this work
I'm genuinely mad, as a mechanic, watching them butcher the execution of this idea
Would love them to revisit this - maybe spend a little time thinking about workable fittings so that we can see the actual performance...? :D
This was so chaotic. I loved it lol
this started off as a normal video and then quickly turned into something with a lot of mad scientist vibes
Agreed! But is was soo much fun! More of this, please! :D
It's Alive! It's Aliiiiiiive! .... Actually, with Linus involved, I'm surprised it's not dead.
13:31 Linus: "I'm starting the stress test."
Me: "I think it began a few minutes ago when the leaks got worse."
this is absolute chaos and I couldn't be happier
Please give us a non rushed version of this video please I wanna see this go right in a well prepared way
Am I crazy for wanting to see a better thought out and functional version of this project later on?
No
Nope, I felt that was lacking also. Don't mind them showing how chaotic it was / what went wrong... but they essentially didn't fix the problem and just called it a day.
YEA, THIS VIDEO SUX
You could probably find a motorcycle radiator that would fit in one of the really large cases
My first idea for WC was using car radiator, since where I live they are 1/3 the price of proper WC rads. Would love to see it done right
Yeah, this one deserves a revisit where Alex actually has time to use the lathe to make proper adapters for the radiator.
Proper adapters are available off-the-shelf. It just takes a bit of auto and plumbing knowledge.
@@kmoecub straight up true . npt pipe in plastic or iron ,brass, stainless, and rubber hose clamps for reduction and seals all in one piece. it could have be easier it was friday and just for fun.
trans cooler portion is just a mini heat exchanger in the end cap. it uses the air cooled coolant that has flowed down/across the rad to cool the trans via liquid/liquid vs having to be a much bulkier liquid/air auxiliary unit taking up space externally.
I made my first water cooler (in eary 2000s with an athlon xp 1800 cpu) from a chevette heater core with 4 80mm fans and a 10 gallon fish tank. It worked perfectly and only cost me a few bucks at the auto recyclers. Eventually I waterproofed in and around the cpu socket with neoprene/dielectric grease and added a peltier. Combined with a mobo voltage mod, I was able to get over 4Ghz and the system was stable.
"I've seen dumber stuff under this roof. Maybe more zip ties."
Every one of these weird builds summarized in 2.2 seconds.
And they all needed more zip ties...
Can't wait to see this concept re-visited a year from now when its not thrown together on a Friday.
I came for that, what I got was a mediocre comedy of errors.
Yup
Honestly I hope they revisit this soon cause it could be so much better
Its actually not that different from an idea I have for a build where I want to put the radiator down in the crawlspace of the house.
It seems like 90% of the leaking issues could have been solved with a quick trip to the hardware store prior to cobbling this mess together.
it looks like a patient dying on the table and they're doing everything to save it xD
Hey Linus, ever thought of using a GAS cooling Solution?
I feel like if they had taken all the time and effort they put into catching leaks, and stopping leaks, then put all that effort into preventing leaks before they started, it would have been significantly less stressful lol
But then it wouldn't be ltt
All i could think was 3d print a reducer. Mill a reducer. But no! Inner tube and rags 🙂
But then it would've been a short and boring video. ;)

@@potatosoup19129 if something is not practical to anyone it's more fun to half ass with proper results it than make it 100% properly
TechTip for For Future Crazy Ideas:
If there's a gap between pipe diameters, you can use a thicker pipe, say that has inner diameter of the CPU pipe and outer diameter of the Radiator pipe's inner diameter, 1" length cut section would be used as an adapter, and fits perfectly between the 2 pipes.
I used it and didn't leak for 6 years. Also it's easy detachable.
Didn t expect this to be so chaotic

Putting two of my favorite things together. In a way that might actually work.
I really want to see them do this again but properly. Buying proper step down valves and sealing the piping so it doesn’t leak everywhere.
Yeah, me too ! It would make for an interesting project. The way they approached it though, totally ruined it for me. It was beyond silly and useless, to the point that it wasn't even fun to watch.
Same. A lot of the projects they do could be redone a lot better.
Yep, car radiators are nothing new for experimental water-cooling but choosing a more appropriate rad and actually thought through connections would be more interesting to watch.
They probably won't, because that's too technical of a video and won't really get views. Though, GN already did the car radiator thing to my knowledge.
I totally agree. With better research and preparation, this project had legs. It feels like they purposely made it into a fiasco for the laughs.
This would actually have been a really interesting concept to see done properly... However it was mildly amusing to watch them all run around wildly at risk of destroying their components.
I feel like there will be a v2 of this concept at some point in the future
Not "mildly amusing". It was WILDLY infuriating to see them do this. This has to be intentionally bad. No leak tests, shoddy piping, not just turning off the power when things starts to leak....
its been done by tons of modders in the early days of watercooling.
@@Jodah175 Yeah I know. If they had actually thought it out and planned it a little better it would have been interesting to see them custom build a case or something actually interesting other than slapping an incredibly leaky device on top of a case. lol
@@printeh yeah it probably was intentionally bad, but it's not our money to waste, so who cares? I would rather see them destroy 100 3090's while doing crazy experiments on them than have those 100 gpu's sit in crypto mining rigs.
This is the type of chaos that I want to see
About fifteen years ago I had a similar idea, though it wasn't for computer cooling I thought why not go to the scrapyard and get a used radiator. It even came with a fan LOL. It worked after a fashon, but shed rust flakes like crazy, the fan needed about 5 amps and it was LOUD!!
This was a missed oportunity to call this "Our coolest project yet"
why? they litterally build a chiller in another video for pc cooling lel
I want to see this remade with actually proper fittings and working fans. There's potential there, I believe it.
a low speed big car fan with proper shroud for the rad would be better for the acoustics for sure
@@ratchet1freak how about a box fan with the motor wired into the CPU fan speed controller?
They should have just used the electric cooling fan for the PT Cruiser. You can pick them up for $50 and then they could have just ran it off a car battery.
@@JuiceSpringsteen88 without an alternator, i think they can figure something way better then just consuming car batteries like nobody's business
Actually the PT fan should work. It works on 12v and I am sure there is an adapter somewhere for that. So it can connect to the power supply.
oh my freaking goodness. please do this again but not so chaotic. obviously we needed an LTT version. now a good version would be a great watch lol.
I sometimes get scared of putting a glass of cold coffee on my desk, in case I short my PC.
Meanwhile LTT:
i've spilled so many drinks on my desk iono how my stuff haven't gotten splashed yet
Your PC was not sent to you free by advertisers.
You know, I’d love to see them actually do this the right way. Like, design actual interconnects to prevent leaks and proper fan mounts and design it to sit next to the computer instead of on top. Like, make this an actual working thing instead of some dumb idea someone had in the bathroom and decided to throw together before dinner
It already exhists. Check pc builds with a MO-RA
and there is no point of doing it 'correctly' cuz of diminishing returns, something a lot smaller would do the same job
Damn you sound boring
Can't agree more, was disappointed that there were leaks in the system and they tried to refill it every often.
XD
Videos that Alex is in is either chaotic or really cool
I know for a fact they knew this could have been done 40x easier but knew that doing it wrong and going through the panic would make a better video. We don't come to watch Linus and the team do things right. We come to watch them revel in chaos. Great job at doing it bad boys! Lol

Ehhh... More like "I watched you FAIL to water cool a room about 5 years ago". At least this was a partial success.
That was only 5 years ago? ....Wow.
If this was school they'd be phoning Linus and Alex's parents right now to tell them that their children must stay late to finish their work properly 😂
They'd call to get the kids outta there, its a liability thing xD
this is a lot more entertaining than i expected it to be.
Imagine this computer had some special software and had to be running 24/7 with teams of two operating in shifts, constantly running around asking for rags, switching them around, topping up the water, fixing fans and checking temps.
The end of this episode was like overcooked in real life but instead of cooking they were trying not to die
"I am gonna find the dry rags and replace them with the wet ones" = Famous last words on a sinking ship lol
this was pure mayhem, love it
you should have used heat shrink tubes on your hose connections and where you reduced the size of your hose.
LTT: We have an amazing workshop with tons of tools! With this we should be able to make anything!
Also LTT:
Yeah, but would it truly be an LTT video if they not jimmy rig, and botch it?
@@mokujin4076 shut up
Car radiator watercooling for 1 PC : craziest cooling project yet!
Whole room watercooling for 6 workstations : am I a joke to you?
This is way better: shop.watercool.de/MO-RA3-420-LT-black
Only real ones remember them trying to hang that whole room cooling monstrosity out the house window 😂😂
I was wrong
@@Ahmed_onYT yes they watercooled several pcs on one loop in an entire room of a house it was dope asf until it died
@@rapidfirer56 K srry
I love the chaotic energy goin on here
this is more intense than watching surgeons save a gun shot victim
This should definitely get a part 2, as well as submerg the rad in ice water.
he could use it as a stix helios rear sode panel
Re-do minus the leaks and jankeys.
@Ankit Meher the radiator is not electric
Jayztwocents did that recently
All this needs to work is some time at the hardware/autoparts stores to get the right plumbing.
If Madison's ROG Rig Reboot was Linus' stress test,
This video was Audiences' stress test taken to whole another level.
indeed
This is the most chaotic LTT video I think I’ve ever seen 😅
Building the one thing that is going to leak with no leak test on top of all the expensive kit was a boss move
When I heard the words "PT Cruiser", I just knew what was going to happen would be Three Stooges-level hilarious.
I used to drive one of those pieces of shit.... so happy I've upgraded since, it felt like I was driving a can of sardines
