17 NF-F12's?!?  Holy!

 

And I thought I was a little over the top with 1xNF-F12, 4x NF-P12, and 1xNF-A15 in my Define Mini!

Can LINUS or anybody else tell me how to use a wrist strap on your ankle?

 

I can't believe I never thought of that... what do you attach it to?

 

It drives me crazy to have in on my wrist.

The 2x480+240 rad is already plenty overkill. Wouldn't it have made more sense to replace the 360 for some angled fittings, a pump top and a decent length tube reservoir that was supposedly out of your budget?

no it wouldn't.....

This build needs 40 radiator fans for sub-zero CPU temps

 

 

see how in Tiny Tom Logans instruction video:

This was troll video. Those are fake temps. You know that right?

Well firstly, it doesn't actually look bad at all and secondly, you have to think about noise you saw how towards the end he showed you how silent the build was..

Well the extra rads gave him the ability to achieve the temps he was getting while having the fans at such a low RPM.

I actually liked this build even though it was a total overkill. The video was informative, interesting and especially funny! :)

 

Of course nobody would be so silly to spend this much money on a pc but it's nice to see what you can build if money is irrelevant factor and only the best components matter. I'm glad Linus made this video!

The fact that think you had to explain this is funny :)

The way you wrote it was serious.
