Not sure if its a Tech News, but still new and interesting.

 

So, this is a pretty cool video, showing a custom silent build.

Its supposed to be inaudible, and there will be future videos showing performance and how-to guide.

My thoughts so far: This guy does some pretty cool stuff in his youtube channel, and for sure it's not a project anyone can embark.

He makes some interesting comments during this video, such as the motherboard orientation to help with airflow and ease of access to the back plate i/o.

 

Im sure all of you have 12min to watch this video and the upcoming ones, that shouldn't take as long to upload as the multi-part videos some other youtubers do (I know you know who I'm talking about!)

 

Anyways, gonna put some SS.

(Just a heads up, not a pretty case inside!)

Conclusion time: This is not something practical, I wouldn't do it, neither have the skills or patience to try, BUT it's still pretty amazing!

Share your opinion bellow!

 

Update:

So... here is the final video on the Quiet PC.

You can actually hear his heartbeat over the pc, it's insanely quiet!

 

A note people will question will be his choice of hardware.. I guess it's not a very powerful pc, BUT it still outputs as much or even more heat then a pretty powerful gaming rig.

I don't remember the cpu choice.

As for the gpu he's using a GTX 480.

 

Hope you guys enjoy this videos as much as i did, the build log is here "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHoqYBZMc_c"

Reposterino mate.

Sorry.

He did a small analysis of the video so I don't think it matters.

You can make a PC in a fanless heatsink case with a sad, and it will be 0dB.

But can you push the components to the limit without thermal throttling them? What about coil whine?

People, go watch the damn video before making condescending comments.

Seriously, he's got a few very ingenious ideas here that case makers and even motherboard and graphics card makers should take into consideration.

temps on load?

and what kind of gpu/cpu is that?

is it a low performance? something like a console?

 

i'm very sceptical about this

A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

Why do people cripple their CPUs by putting such small passive coolers on them? There are PROPER passive coolers for just that purpose.

Meh, I don't have a DIY frankenstein and my system is also inaudible. Component selection is key. Maxwell + Haswell are baller when it comes to quiet computers.

And if your graphics card it still too loud, mount a AIO on it.

Pascal Undervolting topic, get more out of your card with less power!

Why high refreshrate monitors look better even without Freesync/G-sync in one image.
Stutters, framedrops, "lag". How to provide detailed information with your "bottleneck" question, as well as a few solutions.

212 EVO with one fan + 970 0 db model +i5 haswell = WIN.

cool whine is based on component testing. just do research to find stuff that don't have it. and it will not thermal throttle if you have parts that are within thermal spec. I have also seen passive cooled liquid cooling loops, so the only thing you need to stop making sound is the pump.

"Drive temps are 35*C"

 

Does he know that the optimal operating temperature of a mechanical hard drive is 50*C? HDDs have lubricants that work better when hotter.

 

It's not a terrible temperature to have, but likewise it's nothing to highlight and be proud over.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Where did you get that information?

 

Google research on the matter:

 

http://www.buildcomputers.net/hdd-temperature.html

 

  • Hard disk temperatures higher than 45°C led to higher failure rates

     

  • Temperatures lower than 25°C led to higher failure rates as well

     

  • Aging hard disk drives (3 years and older) were much more prone to failure when their average temperatures were 40°C and higher
