  • This looks like a good solution for a divorced setup where this is sitting in a closet or different room than your main PC and you run lines to it. Maybe even have it sitting near a window to dump the hot air outside rather than in the same room. Similar to how a window AC unit has a part that sticks out the window, or how whole house AC systems have a handler inside and a condenser outside.
  • The heat coming out of this thing will be the heat removed from the PC plus the heat created operating the unit itself (compressor, power supply, pump, fans, electronics). So yeah, I would expect it to be pretty warm.

    After watching the video a second time I did notice that it actually has service ports. So if for some reason you can have a HVACR technician add more refrigerant. It's nice that they didn't make it a sealed unit like so many ac units and refrigerators. I bet with some more development this could be a really good product.

    Anyone else appreciate how brutally honest Jay is?! Like he's fun and silly but also dead serious!
  • @trysin4704
    8:35 any vinyl hose fittings are larger than the hose, when you force the vinyl over the inner part of the fitting it becomes larger than the diameter it was before, so long as the thickness of the hose is more than gap in the compression fitting it will compress it and seal. It's the same in vehicle compression fittings. I know you probably know and this is a simple mistake.

    I had a techy friend that had a warehouse like building on his property. It was cooled by one of those large roof industrial AC units. He cobbled some piping together and ran his PC water cooling loop through the AC system. Had a sweet gamer room. Only Intel could design their CPUs in the heat of the deserts of the Middle East, only to run too hot in North America.
  • @wolphin732
    What that unit needs... is ducted airflow... so that you can bring in air from outside, and dump the hot exhaust back outside... then it would make sense! Right now, it is basically a portable AC unit without the air ducts attached! I would love to see more of the components inside, and how it actually cools the water from the loop.
  • @palladin9479
    It's a heat pump, it'll move heat from a custom loop and dump it into the nearby air, which may or may not be in the same room as the PC it's cooling. I can see that being on the other side of a wall and being used to cool both a CPU and GPU resulting in the PC having zero moving parts and being ultra quiet. Otherwise the same result can be reached with a custom loop and a Peltier.

    I remember when LTT did this and asked if we wanted a followup. Which we never got, Happy to see you did something similar here Jayz
  • @briant6669
    This is a redesigned glycol chiller. I had considered trying that. Brewers use them.
  • You should test the power draw at idle, full speed and something in the middle. Might be interesting for some other applications where you need an active cooling loop
  • @mattgeekman
    I actually used a 1/10 hp chiller off Amazon to cool my water loop for a while. Worked great and hilarious when your cpu is sitting at 25C under full load. Gpu was second in the loop so it was closer to 45C but the chiller auto modulated and I had no condensation issues.
  • @ArticTiger
    I would be curious to see this applied to out-of-room cooling though.
  • This is great. I needed a heater for winter anyway. And with those quiet 55db you can easily sleep while it runs
  • @zaqway
    Interesting to see a product like this only now. About 20 years ago, when I first learned that "liquid cooling a computer" is a thing that exists and not having access to the internet to check what it actually means, I imagined pretty exactly something like this. A cooler, which cools down the water and hooks up to the computer with tubes.
  • I have a feeling there will be specific scenarios this will be an ideal solution.. however, I'm also of the mind that this looks a lot better on paper than it does in reality. Nice work though, great video!
  • @Shagbert
    FWIW 28C is 82F, not in the 70’s. It’s pretty much the easiest conversion between the two to remember because it’s just a straight transposition. Useful for me as a Brit living in the US. :)
  • @nellynelson9387
    Would love to see a jayztwocents version of this? Using better fans and components etc. Great idea but needs a enthusiastic approach to it.
  • @TotesCray
    Back in early days of water cooling where we were milling our own "maze" style blocks and using pond pumps to circulate water, some friends and I hooked up an aquarium chiller to the loop in a similar fashion. It had the same problems then that it appears to have now.
  • @MrNightro
    I used to use the Coolit System Freezone Elite V2, it used to be able to get your CPU to sub-ambient temperatures easily while still being a relatively small self-contained unit that ran pretty quiet because the fan never had to spin at high RPM.
