Guys, it's not nickel plating the magnet to increase thickness that's genius, It's using a goddamn speaker for both magnet suspension AND sine wave agitation. THAT is genius.
Same here, I was astonished at this level of ingenuity; Simplicity in it's conveyor, walk along the practical problems, and the lack of being able to see problems that can't be novely solved was also inspiring! The whole idea of 'an only „clean/cold„ air case' using hydrokinetic magnetic pneumatics is also quite genius... That is displacing soo much air and with pretty solid pressure, design improvements might lead to new silent PC capabilities and maybe out preforming any water loop; imaging heat pipe jungles with fins every which way in that box with an air-conditioned via metallic water pipe from a freezer loop in the intake air source, keeping it dry. Mini-DataCeneric!
Oh that would be awesome. I guess he'd have to use some relays and such to handle the extra current but it would work for sure. I'm not sure how it would be in practice though, all that variation might throw off the comfy rhythm & turn it into a device of chaos. :u
great now I'm just thinking about if for the water loop he made a heart-pump instead so the PC literally had lungs and a heart to keep itself cool and a natural stress reaction to intense situations. "Shit, aight guys I have to head off, my PC is having a heart attack"
Your optimism and calm with finding a solution for the tube after it broke honestly gave me a boost of motivation for my day. I don't know why, but that moment really resonated with me. Thank you lol
What the… this guy is incredibly smart I’ve never seen someone this capable. The magnet plating just to fix the magnet size with the tube was crazy. You make it all look so beautiful and clean as well. Very impressed with this channel
I wouldn't have thought to do it, but the moment he mentioned tubes too big and set down that jar it came to me what he was intending to do. Such a capable problem-solver!
Actually it's just simple electroplating, in first world countries this practice are regulated heavily because it's toxic. In third world countries though, it's thrive, and used in many metal industry. If you see shiny metal things, most likely it is from electroplating process
And yet, this build is still something that anyone with basic tools, the skills to use them, and the budget for the off the shelf components and materials could make. Well, the patience to use those tools and skills on a project this big would also help.
You could mount this horizontally as a desk setup and make its large size almost a feature. Watching the mover glide back and forth under your keyboard seems like it could be quite mesmerizing
I'm pausing the video just to comment this: That solution he came up with to make the magnet fit perfectly into the tube again was bloody brilliant. This man, very impressive.
Yea, just having it sit up there by your computer desk wouldnt take up much more room and you could easily turn it into some kind of shelf or bookstand by building on top.
This thing looked like a genuine respiratory system! The lungs cooling the all important heart! I never ever comment on videos but this was the most impressive thing I've seen! Awesome!
@yushkovyaroslav it's crazy how many comments you left, directly boosting the video in the algorithm so many other people can see something this cool. Don't be a bag, this is cool
This guy is extremely smart. To increase the magnets size by using chemistry is extreme cool - but using a speaker to add a sinewave to shake off the bubbles is so..... I am speechless. 😯 Chapeau
I was laughing at first because I also use random things to suspend my experiment subjects... but when I realized and he said that it's for vibration. I was abashed 🤣🤣🤣

@@sgartistry1418 Interesting guess. I guess putting my RUclips profile into a search does show up my chess profile. Considering I don't use any social media. Do you use BING? lmao. Because google doesn't give any relevant search results. And no, I have never gotten kicked out of a chess club. What this person created is idiotic and attention seeking. I would also bet my IQ is higher than the clown that created this, since I can actually perform real engineering rather than make useless creations for a living so that bunch of "interesting" people look at it to get ad and sponsorship revenue. Did I mention its completely useless? And will destroy your components and maybe your house with it ^^. Not to mention a $50 fan can out perform it. But you know what do I know right?

Dude, you're so freaking good, and your enthusiasm is real and charming. RUclips productions such as yours present the sort of rich content that elevate your channel to be better than 99.99% of the other channels. My god, so good.
i cant begin to think how perfect this guy is, everything he makes is perfection! he doesnt slack or compromise. he uses science for everything, i was blown away by his solution for fitting the magnet, and the speaker part, no shortcuts! amazing hats off!!!
@@TaimTam Dont understand why you guys have to be so aggressive lol. Just added a comment. And its a valid point because none of what he made contained iron.
I fucking loved that it blew my mind, not that I necessarily wouldn’t have known the solution but to actually push through and clearly succeed in diy plating and this whole build
DUUUUDE that is a really good idea and would make the machine feel like a living breathing creature. It would almost be creepy to be in the room with it.
that would actually be really simple to do with the right water pumps, you could just connect them to the CPU fan/pump header and set a curve profile in the BIOS
But it would be inadvisable building an overclocked rig to do this. Good thing is that his project worked so well that it put up enough cooling for power-hungry, hot components under load with standard configuration. Using an OC rig might break the weakest link in that chain - the plastic tube that everything else revolves around to make the set work properly.
@@walker1054 shaving down the magnet likely would have worked, but you wound not only need a lathe, but one that is very well set up to be able to take such minuscule amounts of material off. Not sure if that would have been easier than what he did. But buying magnets as well is a great idea. He likely would have gotten a match that way.
Yeah, that was seriously impressive. I thought he was going to sand the magnet down somehow. In a million years, it would not have occurred to me to somehow make the magnet bigger. This guy never fails to impress me.
@@walker1054 shaving it down would work, but you’d end up with a million tiny pieces of nickel attached to the magnet which will be almost impossible to get off. If he needs that close of a fit, a tiny piece of nickel could end up scratching the pipe which in turn will increase its diameter and thus decreasing its efficienty
This guy just always has a spark of enthusiasm in his eye and it's so endearing to watch him talk about his projects- He obviously really loves what he does
Hey don't worry, I get it, this guy is doing some crazy and cool stuff, but do not compare yourself to him. Your worth as a person is not based on comparing yourself to other people. You are worth more than everything this world will ever give ❤️
why not file the magnet and use a smaller tube? i don´t know if it´s "genius" there are plenty of other solutions to the problem that are better ,easier, cheaper.
@@XxFaSiToxX why not show us a solution that is better easier and cheaper. he found a way thinking outside the box and it worked. feels like Internet armchair commenting right there... :-/
You can't even turn down neodymium on a machinists lathe as it's too brittle. Given the situation his solution was brilliant, i can't think of an alternative off the top of my head.
This is incredible. I know it's not practical or space-saving, but it is insanely cool. Definitely a conversation starter, for sure. I'd be willing to bet you'd never meet another person with this setup or even anything similar unless you were specifically looking for them. Love it.
Friend : Aight, I'm heading out for the summer boiis (last seen half year ago) Friend Half year later : Aigh't finally winter i can come back to my friend!
I love this video... I would love to build this for myself as my daily driver PC. I love the look of it and sound it makes. Thank you for coming up with this neat idea.
Have you seen Tech Ingredients air conditioner computer system. though its super loud yet you can overclock your pc to the max while keeping it far cooler than any water cooling system could. Its a super cool concept that would work if you duct the air flow in and then out of your office. This breathing unit is very cool as well as you could adapt 2 wings on to it to allow the ac air come in and then the exhaust vent going out side. One would have to devote an entire wall and custom build a desk and everything. Though I wonder if you could put two lungs ( breathing parts in so that you can have your large monitor in the middle...
Until you realize he used a 520 watt passive PSU 🤦♂️ This PC isn't sustainable and is only for show. If he tried actually using that PC with those components it would melt.
@@ThisIsTheInternet What? How hot the GPU and CPU get is irrelevant to the issue... He never showed how hot the PSU was getting. It was guaranteed running hotter then the sun. Also he never showed the HWinfo and what speed the CPU/ GPU were running at. The 5950X and 3080 automatically downclock themselves for power management in order to keep their temps under control. Basically they're running way slower then they should be. That PSU is not capable of running a 5950x and 3080 at their rated specs. Any real world workload and long term use would not be sustainable on a 520w PSU. Stop believing everything you see on RUclips. Even a monkey knows a 520w PSU is too low for those components let alone a passive one.
@@ThisIsTheInternet That's not the point. When temps get too high or there's not enough power draw the CPU and GPU downclock in order to keep temps from getting to high forcing them to run much lower the spec. But the real problem is how hot the PSU is getting. Not only is the PC running slower then it should be and going to experience constant shutdowns but with the way a 3080 spikes it's liable to eventually melt out the PSU or catch fire. No way would this PC last with that small of a PSU.
As a senior who plans to major in mechanical engineering after high school, my mind is completely blown. The simple and yet amazingly advanced mechanics of using magnets pushed with water. The way the one way air valves work. The amazingly clean athsetic. I have made some simple mechanical projects, but none of them have ever turned out pretty. Let alone as functional as this. You are an inspiration to me and many others, and I thank you for all the cool projects you have made for our entertainment.
Every time I watch one of these videos I'm like : " ok. doable. Ok that's a little hard. Ok that is high level thinking. ok this is above my level of comprehension. ok I am officially a piece of broccoli at this point. Drools"

@@LeftyzVQ37 wait, defuq? what did I say on my reply? I didn't even remember anything about replying to this. AND for some reason can't even see my own reply as well
@@DeAthWaGer I literally never would have thought of doing that haha I would have probably used the old tube as it was broken on the side with an extension
Honestly? Bravo. Simply bravo. This is not just unique, but absolutely fascinating. The level of effort and interesting science is truly lovely to watch. Seeing you galvanize a layer of nickel with pretty fine precision, using pretty simple tools, so it fits perfectly in the tubing was icing on the cake for me. And ofcourse the silent operation seems like a genius prototype for future possible audio technicians who may have a computer in their home office, not far away in a separate server room. Well done. youve definitely earned a sub. this is what i love with such projects..... you get to see the use of normal tools, and ofcourse some higher end tools for perfecting the look and feel of the product.... but it actually shows a well thought out design, with minimal fuss and not requiring many small motors working in conjunction to keep things like the air valves to open and close according to the movement of the air....... great idea just using the already actively moving air in the chamber, to power the opening and closing of the valves.
@@888marcinb The point is practicality, it's pretty much just a proof of concept. All of those issues could be easily fixed, but since it isn't a production prototype there really isn't much point.
@@tron-8140 synced pulsing white light with a heart beat monitor on the side that read temperature, CPU usage, and memory. I would honestly pay good money for that shit would be sick! (no pun intended)
Fluid mechanics PhD here: First of all, fantastic, and I want one. The magnet growing trick is the type of hypercomplicated solution I like to see in my science. Second, a couple of little improvement ideas for your next design: 1) The system has a good amount of "dead volume", which is air that's not strictly involved in the pumping process. mostly around the outside of the pump system. Dead volume like that is going to do two things, which are slightly in opposition. First, it's going to decrease the overall pressure your pump is able to produce in the system, because relatively more of the energy of the pump is going to compress air that isn't really doing anything. On the other hand, the dead volume is also going to buffer the airflow so it's a bit more consistent. I'm not sure which matters more, although I suspect higher pressure would give you faster airflow. And as a bonus, you save a bit of space. Ultimately, your max pressure is going to depend on the quality of your seals, though. 2) You might be able to make the airflow go directly up through the radiator without some of the extra enclosure box. If the primary connection goes from pump -> joining chamber -> CPU chamber, you can lower the number of pieces you need. The pump mechanism would be exactly the same as you have it, but on the top there would be a one way valve for each side. This would allow air to flow one way into the joining chamber. Then you don't need another one-way valve until the very top of the PC. You flow the air directly up past the cooling components, where the air then goes out the top. In theory, this would create not so much a "breathing" flow, but a direct one-way flow past the components, which should help reduce the overall dissipation of energy from having the air switch directions all the time. 3) Another option would be to go with a design like a steam engine. You have your breathing mechanism tied to a moving valve that itself controls the direction of the airflow. This ends up allowing you to not need one-way valves at all, as the flow of the air is always going to be directed upward. makeagif.com/i/74-zjb [gif of steam engine operation. In the steam engine case, it's high pressure air from the yellow triangle that's moving the piston and wheel. But it works just as well in reverse, where the piston moves the air] (Sorry this is hard to explain only in text).
I'm having a hard time figuring out how this system works. How is the fan able to get air from one side to the other when the air valves close on one side? Am I missing something here?
@@astroalyn2010 I think I was able to figure out what's going on from shots at 11:59 and 17:53. The first thing to consider is that each half (R/L) is in some way isolated. So you can consider what happens on the left side, and then just flip it over and you get the same effect on the right. Walking through the cycle: You start in the Piston Left (PL) position. All the pressures have equilibrated and there's no air moving. Then the piston moves left->right. The volume of the "breath chamber" increases, meaning that air needs to be pulled in to equalize the pressure. This air has only two places it can come from on the left side: the vents to the outside and the vents to the "CPU chamber". The CPU chamber is denied, though, because of the one-way flap valves (17:53) that allow air to only go left->right (into the CPU chamber and not out). So instead the air comes from the outside flaps on the left, which open in the direction of Outside->Inside. This air then flows into the breath chamber, equalizing the pressure. The piston completes this half cycle and ends up in on the Piston Right (PR) position. Then it starts its backward R->L movement. This *decreases* the volume in the left side of the breath chamber, forcing the air out to keep the pressure from rising. Except this time, the flaps to the outside are *closed* (the only open in, remember). Instead, the air gets forced out into the CPU chamber, and then out a set of flaps in the top, which only open up. Then the piston completes the R->L half cycle, makes it back to PL position, and everything starts over. The exact same thing is happening on the right side of the chamber, except with the opposite direction. When the piston is moving L->R, the air is getting pumped into the CPU chamber, and when the piston is moving back R->L, that half is having its air supply built back up. The design is slightly inefficient (brilliant, but a first draft) because it's having each half work independently. If the breath chamber were open to the air on the right and left (so not in the bigger box) and had the flaps directly inside, then the piston could force the air straight up through a pair of one-way valves on the L/R side. This air could then move *up* through the CPU chamber, rather than moving side/side. Then you could have something where the air direction ends up flowing up on both the right and left strokes of the piston, meaning the air doesn't have to stop and "reset" each time. This would reduce turbulence in the CPU chamber and let smooth laminar flow carry more heat out, and could substantially reduce the size of the overall system. As I mentioned before, this is very much how a steam engine works, or an air compressor, if you're working in reverse (www.aircompressorscout.net/wp-content/uploads/reciprocating-piston.gif although note that this is a single stroke design. @DIYPerks could totally do that method, but the double-sided design looks *way* cooler).
This has to be the most unique and impressive custom case build I have ever seen. Everything about this build has been utterly fascinating and I am blown away by the results. Amazing job!
I agree with your idea, as i do think it looks like it. The bellow being the lung, the motherboard and components being the brain and the water pump being the heart of the system.
Having watched, certainly, thousands of videos over the years and being a PC enthusiast myself, this is undoubtedly one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my entire life. When the temperature of the GPU was finally revealed I couldn't help but throw my hands infront of me with fingers spread, a flabbergasted expression on my face, all the while exclaiming "WHAT!?". I mean, I had a feeling it would be somewhere around that number after having seen the CPU temperature already, but considering the engineering behind it all and hearing 62°C was simply mind-blowing. This is an amazing work of engineering and art. Absolutely fantastic. Now please excuse me while I excitedly share this video with everyone I know.
I wonder what more we'll see from this guy. He really solves a problem with a tough solution but it works in the end and pleases us all. Such a nice guy he is.
Linus is a wanna-be. He can never get to the skill DIY Perks has. Linus hired Alex to do all the engineering, but even Alex isn't the best compared to DIY Perks.
This is absolutely amazing. Very cool concept, beautifully implemented, and the numbers are nothing short of impressive. Bravo, this was a joy to watch.
I couldn’t even imagine what Matt could accomplish with a CNC, laser cutter and plenty of time. These builds are just ridiculous considering everything is hand made. Someone give this man a fully equipped shop already!
I'm sure he's considered it. Then he'd become some like what LTT is now or even Hacksmith Industries. Hell even that YTer Russian guy that makes Ironman suits using serious engineering could use a shop like this, properly equipped to make amazing products for cosplayers, mass production products, etc. These ppl are modern day companies ready to bank.
I was very impressed where he looked like he was doing mitre cuts on aluminium profiles with just a saw. Not even a mitre box or a proper mitre saw with angle indication.
@Raw Forces you can also make those things at home. Search home made CNC cutter or laser cutter. Obviously it's not the same as a mass production product, but it can be made. "materials readily available at home" just depends on what you keep in your home/shop. A plasma cutter can sub a laser cutter as a home available tool.
I have a feeling it was more crying with lots of tears, which is understandable. Nothing worse than making something, then having one tiny mistake ruin it all.
This is true for basically all water cooled computers. How to cool the water loop tends to be some kind of fan, or in this case an alternative system to push air around.
Absolutely amazing build, never seen anything like this before. Would love to see version 2 with even more artistic touches. Maybe could reduce the frame bulkiness, maybe add natural stone material for frame and make it completely silent so it would be even more magical feeling being next to it. Maybe better sound isolation for motors. Something i would love to try build myself one day. Very inspiring. I loved how you figured out the fitting issue inside the tube. You were able to do it way simpler way but this touch of physics was perfect. 👏👏👏

Just come across this video. It's awesome and beautiful. I do have a suggestion with the bellow being sectioned to 3 with a time difference of 120 degrees to compensate with the change in direction. Please do correct me if I'm wrong. Nevertheless, I really enjoy your projects and looking forward to try and do it as well.
YES, i've been waiting for this one and it doesn't disappoint! this is SOOOO incredible Matt, congratulations. the electroplating solution was an awesome curveball and absolutely genius. hats off to you, another extremely unique and beautifully executed project.
This actually has to be the best looking PC I have ever seen. The idea behind it is brilliant, and it looks absolutely stunning. I could watch the movement all day.
Matt: Builds an air pumping system around magnets tight-fitted inside and acrylic tubes. Me: "This simply cannot go any crazier than it already is...." Matt: Proceeds to use a Sony Experia speaker to play a sine wave through the magnet during galvanoplasty.
A perfect, incredible, well-balanced mixture of nonsense and... craftmanship, genius and awesomeness. That's what it is. A marvel of its own. Really. You deserve the first place in the hall of fame of... I don't even know, you name it!
Another reason it works better than those 4 fans, is the fact that the horizontal movement is in 2 directions, effectively doubling it’s air output if you collect air from both sides. It’s an absolute marvel this thing!!! The part where you nickel coated that magnet had me staring in awe!! The length this man has gone through to make this work is absolutely unbelievable!!
it's only getting air from one side at a time so no, that's not a factor. What I think is making the difference is the fact that he's built an enclosure that is strictly sealed, which puts a lot of momentum and pressure behind the air movement. Just having fans in a normal pc case with vents everywhere would not be able to do that. When fans are having to suck air and also push and/or pull through a radiator, they're not going to be as good as when they're just blowing into a plastic bag like he did for his informal "test" of his invention. It seems like the "lung" is more capable of overcoming that resistance than the noctua fans
@@EMETRL You're missing the fact that he estimated 1 side to be moving air on par with 4 fans, as he is now getting the air from both sides, he has in fact doubled the output, the intermittency is irrelevant.
@@zat-svi-ua No it isn't you goober. CFPS is an average, when you're doubling the inputs, you double it as well. What you're saying is that is you blow 10cf of air every two seconds, that's equal to blowing 10cf of air every second, which is obviously BS.
Especially if its made completely f acrylic. Maybe even with some diffused LEDs to light it up slightly, if wanted. Should probably try to get bit-tech on it.

@@Markus-fw4px Doesn't change the fact that it's god damn impressive though!
I think it's the breadth of knowledge that Matt has that is what's most impressive.
Impressive, but excessive. He could have just wrapped it in heat shrink or tape until it fit snugly in a slightly larger tube.
Honestly, the sheer novelty of it makes the size issue a near non-issue.
This is probably better than some expensive fans I’d use it for sure plus it looks good lol
plus the slimness means its toll on square footage is the same as a normal ATX size rig anyway.

that would actually be really simple to do with the right water pumps, you could just connect them to the CPU fan/pump header and set a curve profile in the BIOS
But it would be inadvisable building an overclocked rig to do this.
Good thing is that his project worked so well that it put up enough cooling for power-hungry, hot components under load with standard configuration.
Using an OC rig might break the weakest link in that chain - the plastic tube that everything else revolves around to make the set work properly.

Yeah, that was seriously impressive. I thought he was going to sand the magnet down somehow. In a million years, it would not have occurred to me to somehow make the magnet bigger. This guy never fails to impress me.
@@walker1054 shaving it down would work, but you’d end up with a million tiny pieces of nickel attached to the magnet which will be almost impossible to get off.

Until you realize he used a 520 watt passive PSU 🤦♂️ This PC isn't sustainable and is only for show. If he tried actually using that PC with those components it would melt.
@@PabzRoz He literally loaded it with prime95 and 3dmark. In what scenario would it get any hotter?
@@ThisIsTheInternet What? How hot the GPU and CPU get is irrelevant to the issue... He never showed how hot the PSU was getting. It was guaranteed running hotter then the sun. Also he never showed the HWinfo and what speed the CPU/ GPU were running at. The 5950X and 3080 automatically downclock themselves for power management in order to keep their temps under control. Basically they're running way slower then they should be. That PSU is not capable of running a 5950x and 3080 at their rated specs. Any real world workload and long term use would not be sustainable on a 520w PSU. Stop believing everything you see on RUclips. Even a monkey knows a 520w PSU is too low for those components let alone a passive one.
@@ThisIsTheInternet That's not the point. When temps get too high or there's not enough power draw the CPU and GPU downclock in order to keep temps from getting to high forcing them to run much lower the spec. But the real problem is how hot the PSU is getting. Not only is the PC running slower then it should be and going to experience constant shutdowns but with the way a 3080 spikes it's liable to eventually melt out the PSU or catch fire. No way would this PC last with that small of a PSU.
the acrylic tube was like cinderella's shoe, Matt scoured the kingdom to find a tube that could fit his beloved magnet perfectly...

Instead of finding Cinderella, he just put some thick socks on the 40th foot he tried.
And then he decided to just giveup on cinderella and instead do some plastic surgery to get cinderella's foot to fit the shoe.

Well done. youve definitely earned a sub. this is what i love with such projects..... you get to see the use of normal tools, and ofcourse some higher end tools for perfecting the look and feel of the product.... but it actually shows a well thought out design, with minimal fuss and not requiring many small motors working in conjunction to keep things like the air valves to open and close according to the movement of the air....... great idea just using the already actively moving air in the chamber, to power the opening and closing of the valves.

Fluid mechanics PhD here:
First of all, fantastic, and I want one. The magnet growing trick is the type of hypercomplicated solution I like to see in my science. Second, a couple of little improvement ideas for your next design:
1) The system has a good amount of "dead volume", which is air that's not strictly involved in the pumping process. mostly around the outside of the pump system. Dead volume like that is going to do two things, which are slightly in opposition. First, it's going to decrease the overall pressure your pump is able to produce in the system, because relatively more of the energy of the pump is going to compress air that isn't really doing anything. On the other hand, the dead volume is also going to buffer the airflow so it's a bit more consistent. I'm not sure which matters more, although I suspect higher pressure would give you faster airflow. And as a bonus, you save a bit of space. Ultimately, your max pressure is going to depend on the quality of your seals, though.
2) You might be able to make the airflow go directly up through the radiator without some of the extra enclosure box. If the primary connection goes from pump -> joining chamber -> CPU chamber, you can lower the number of pieces you need. The pump mechanism would be exactly the same as you have it, but on the top there would be a one way valve for each side. This would allow air to flow one way into the joining chamber. Then you don't need another one-way valve until the very top of the PC. You flow the air directly up past the cooling components, where the air then goes out the top. In theory, this would create not so much a "breathing" flow, but a direct one-way flow past the components, which should help reduce the overall dissipation of energy from having the air switch directions all the time.
3) Another option would be to go with a design like a steam engine. You have your breathing mechanism tied to a moving valve that itself controls the direction of the airflow. This ends up allowing you to not need one-way valves at all, as the flow of the air is always going to be directed upward.
makeagif.com/i/74-zjb [gif of steam engine operation. In the steam engine case, it's high pressure air from the yellow triangle that's moving the piston and wheel. But it works just as well in reverse, where the piston moves the air]
(Sorry this is hard to explain only in text).
I'm having a hard time figuring out how this system works. How is the fan able to get air from one side to the other when the air valves close on one side? Am I missing something here?
@@astroalyn2010 I think I was able to figure out what's going on from shots at 11:59 and 17:53. The first thing to consider is that each half (R/L) is in some way isolated. So you can consider what happens on the left side, and then just flip it over and you get the same effect on the right.
Walking through the cycle: You start in the Piston Left (PL) position. All the pressures have equilibrated and there's no air moving. Then the piston moves left->right. The volume of the "breath chamber" increases, meaning that air needs to be pulled in to equalize the pressure. This air has only two places it can come from on the left side: the vents to the outside and the vents to the "CPU chamber". The CPU chamber is denied, though, because of the one-way flap valves (17:53) that allow air to only go left->right (into the CPU chamber and not out). So instead the air comes from the outside flaps on the left, which open in the direction of Outside->Inside. This air then flows into the breath chamber, equalizing the pressure.
The piston completes this half cycle and ends up in on the Piston Right (PR) position. Then it starts its backward R->L movement. This *decreases* the volume in the left side of the breath chamber, forcing the air out to keep the pressure from rising. Except this time, the flaps to the outside are *closed* (the only open in, remember). Instead, the air gets forced out into the CPU chamber, and then out a set of flaps in the top, which only open up.
Then the piston completes the R->L half cycle, makes it back to PL position, and everything starts over.
The exact same thing is happening on the right side of the chamber, except with the opposite direction. When the piston is moving L->R, the air is getting pumped into the CPU chamber, and when the piston is moving back R->L, that half is having its air supply built back up.
The design is slightly inefficient (brilliant, but a first draft) because it's having each half work independently. If the breath chamber were open to the air on the right and left (so not in the bigger box) and had the flaps directly inside, then the piston could force the air straight up through a pair of one-way valves on the L/R side. This air could then move *up* through the CPU chamber, rather than moving side/side. Then you could have something where the air direction ends up flowing up on both the right and left strokes of the piston, meaning the air doesn't have to stop and "reset" each time. This would reduce turbulence in the CPU chamber and let smooth laminar flow carry more heat out, and could substantially reduce the size of the overall system. As I mentioned before, this is very much how a steam engine works, or an air compressor, if you're working in reverse (www.aircompressorscout.net/wp-content/uploads/reciprocating-piston.gif although note that this is a single stroke design. @DIYPerks could totally do that method, but the double-sided design looks *way* cooler).

@Raw Forces you can also make those things at home. Search home made CNC cutter or laser cutter. Obviously it's not the same as a mass production product, but it can be made. "materials readily available at home" just depends on what you keep in your home/shop. A plasma cutter can sub a laser cutter as a home available tool.

If you ever wondered what a really smart man behaves like, this is it. Ingenuity and imagination literally intertwined.
i never knew that "fan'" would be sooo "cool" that it can cool a pc
One of the most unique builds of all time. Wow. Should be in the PC build hall of fame.
Imagine taking this around for LAN parties.
I'd get a mobile home if I needed to lol
Friend: What type of computer system are you running?
Matt: Literally, Windows.
the MOST windows pc ever built i think
Windows isn't bad at all you can do more on Windows than on iOS or os what so ever the Apple company produces
@@unbekanntunbekant4587 i think you missed the joke

@@unbekanntunbekant4587 you definitely missed the joke..
"Is your computer water cooled or air cooled?"
"Yes."
GENIUS
Every water cooled machine is air cooled
It has lungs.
This is true for basically all water cooled computers. How to cool the water loop tends to be some kind of fan, or in this case an alternative system to push air around.
@@thatkidmingming7390 yup
Absolutely amazing build, never seen anything like this before. Would love to see version 2 with even more artistic touches. Maybe could reduce the frame bulkiness, maybe add natural stone material for frame and make it completely silent so it would be even more magical feeling being next to it. Maybe better sound isolation for motors. Something i would love to try build myself one day. Very inspiring. I loved how you figured out the fitting issue inside the tube. You were able to do it way simpler way but this touch of physics was perfect. 👏👏👏
Meanwhile everyone's buying/building smallest PC ever, this dude's building furniture.
yup but dang it looks gooddddddddd and at the moment they are getting bigger and bigger just for the lights ;)
@@michagabo8819 Tell me more.
Hahaha! When ur PC becomes furniture
using a micro atx board lolol
This man is so genuinely passionate about what he does; so rare, and such marvelous machines he builds. Bravo to you sir! Bravo indeed!
Until you realize he used a 520 watt PSU 🤦♂️ This PC isn't sustainable and is only for show. If he tried actually using that PC with those components it would melt.
This man is electro-plating nickel but still makes everything else out of MDF - I’m shocked he didn’t MDF-plate the MDF
Well... He DID veneer-plate it (or at least, parts of it!).
With all of that wood though, it's a $20k build.
@@RichardLangis lol so true... Wood is the most valuable good at the moment. hahaha
@@RichardLangislooks like one 4x8 of mdf ($200ish if your supplier sucks and marks up) and like $6 of veneer wdym 😭
@@EphemeralPseudonym You're about 2 YEARS late to the party, but thanks!
Just come across this video. It's awesome and beautiful. I do have a suggestion with the bellow being sectioned to 3 with a time difference of 120 degrees to compensate with the change in direction. Please do correct me if I'm wrong. Nevertheless, I really enjoy your projects and looking forward to try and do it as well.
YES, i've been waiting for this one and it doesn't disappoint! this is SOOOO incredible Matt, congratulations. the electroplating solution was an awesome curveball and absolutely genius. hats off to you, another extremely unique and beautifully executed project.
This actually has to be the best looking PC I have ever seen. The idea behind it is brilliant, and it looks absolutely stunning. I could watch the movement all day.
He could probably just live-stream it on YT for an ambient channel and it would pay for itself.
Yh
the sound is cursed though despite how quiet it is 17:32
Matt: Builds an air pumping system around magnets tight-fitted inside and acrylic tubes.
Me: "This simply cannot go any crazier than it already is...."
Matt: Proceeds to use a Sony Experia speaker to play a sine wave through the magnet during galvanoplasty.
I'm a science student and tbh i was watching magic
A perfect, incredible, well-balanced mixture of nonsense and... craftmanship, genius and awesomeness. That's what it is. A marvel of its own. Really. You deserve the first place in the hall of fame of... I don't even know, you name it!
This is so unnecessarily overengineered - I love it
@Toren1156 yeah and it can still be optimized. Hoping in the future this becomes a thing or something
He should get a job at Toyota 😂
It will not 😂 but it's cool
Another reason it works better than those 4 fans, is the fact that the horizontal movement is in 2 directions, effectively doubling it’s air output if you collect air from both sides. It’s an absolute marvel this thing!!! The part where you nickel coated that magnet had me staring in awe!! The length this man has gone through to make this work is absolutely unbelievable!!
The craziest part is how casual he is about it!
it's only getting air from one side at a time so no, that's not a factor. What I think is making the difference is the fact that he's built an enclosure that is strictly sealed, which puts a lot of momentum and pressure behind the air movement. Just having fans in a normal pc case with vents everywhere would not be able to do that. When fans are having to suck air and also push and/or pull through a radiator, they're not going to be as good as when they're just blowing into a plastic bag like he did for his informal "test" of his invention. It seems like the "lung" is more capable of overcoming that resistance than the noctua fans
@@EMETRL You're missing the fact that he estimated 1 side to be moving air on par with 4 fans, as he is now getting the air from both sides, he has in fact doubled the output, the intermittency is irrelevant.
@@Nevir202 but the volume of air moved per second is the same still
@@zat-svi-ua No it isn't you goober. CFPS is an average, when you're doubling the inputs, you double it as well.
What you're saying is that is you blow 10cf of air every two seconds, that's equal to blowing 10cf of air every second, which is obviously BS.
Friend: yo what's that thumping sound?
This guy: Just my PC breathing my bad.
"dude stop breathing in the mic so heavily"
My pc has asma soory bro
Finally a pc that matches my lungs
The PC is hooked to an Iron Lung...
I absolutely love how it’s just more running parts and still somehow works better.
This honestly wouldn't be out of place being the centerpiece of a room.
Imagine doing that to a larger server and putting it in the middle of a office workspace
Especially if its made completely f acrylic.
Maybe even with some diffused LEDs to light it up slightly, if wanted.
Should probably try to get bit-tech on it.
My wife would probably disagree with that statement :-)
@@paulm.7420 maybe great for winter.. but in summertime this is going to be pain for the ppls working there... since it still throws heat right into the room..
Matt: "i know that it is huge and not at all practical"
Me after hearing it "breath": "i can decorate a whole room just to fit around THAT WONDER and relax in it while playing my favorite games or doing anything pc related"
Gamer: heh my pc is watercooled how about you
Diy Perks: it breathes
Up you go
😂😂
