Just got a bunch of EK fittings (EK Quantum Torque nickel) so I can chime in on that one: They're not easier. Still gotta press kinda hard. Kinda logical too when you think about it. They're supposed to be real tight. Lubricating the gasket tends to help a great deal with pushing it in though. (that's what she said) Nice build by the way. Kinda wondering what case that is? Interior sorta looks like an O11 Dynamic, but it's clearly not. Some personal points: Personally would have redone the tube from CPU to the top rad. Just a tad bit too short. I'd also change all front fans to pull air into the case to create positive air pressure inside case. That way, more dust that gets sucked in gets pushed out. Now you just have all fans pushing air out, creating negative pressure, pulling dust into the case. (like a vacuum cleaner) I guess you could also eventually reposition the front rad to the floor of the case. Though that takes quite a bit more work + might screw with the outlet. A better alternative: Add some fans to the floor that also pull air into the case. Also, exactly where did you install the temperature sensor? Can't really see it anywhere.
Nice to see a video that helps beginners. A tip though - disable autofocus on your camera, your movements make the video blury and hard to watch. Got me dizzy.
Sorry! I should have pointed it out. I’m making an updated video about this for maintenance and I’ll make sure to talk about that. All I said is that you just have to push it in really hard
Honest feedback, I came to see a PC build but yours is a PC upgrade. I had the impression I will see someone assembling the different components out of the box but I was disappointed
Thanks for the feedback. The only thing really missing from this was putting in the CPU in and RAM. I wanted to focus more on the water cool aspect and not so much on the basics. But I will make note of this for future videos!

Looks like the Thermaltake view 51
Love watching your videos! One of my fav tech accounts!
Wow, thanks!

Thanks for the tips!
🔥🔥🔥 can’t wait to see what’s next
Awesome! Kinda want to build my own PC now
You should!
Awesome!
thanks for sharing this tutorial
Hope it helped!
Bro had concerns like "how do i connect the fittings?" So he doesnt say or show how he connects the fittings in this video
Also doesn’t tell you a single item you need, just assumes you know or have it

How long do you have to heat the acrylic tubes to bend and do your hands get hot too ? I m thinking if I should do my pc build and get experience too
About 30-45 seconds. And no my hands did not get hot. You have to place your hands as far as possible from the heat
What water did you use for water cooling system?
EK
Do you need to tweak bios or fan curves in bios?
No, I use fan control. I’ll make a video about it
@microcenter sponsor him already!!
whatever floats your boat
How do I heat tubes without the tube getting ripples
It depends on the tube you’re using but you have to get it to the right temp then bend slowly. If it’s too hot you’ll get ripplers
what kind of fitting can i use
Any fittings you’d like. Depends if you’re using soft tube or hard.
fans on the front rad is mounted the wrong way
I swapped them eventually but for looks this is the best haha
Case name
I can’t find it online but it’s thermal take full size tower
This is OD
Hahaha what do you mean
