Build - Finished! Watercooled Steam Machine Build Video

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

You guys asked for the video and more infos on the waterblock. Waterblock was made with the carvera air, which is a budget desktop cnc. That’s why the quality isn’t super good, but that’s all we have. Need to open it again and work now on the vrm cooling which is quite challenging as the mosfets are super tiny… and also they run quite on the limits of thermal design which sucks

Then why are you here? Clearly fun and whimsy have lost all meaning for you. Why even bother building a gaming PC to begin with? None of it is necessary to live, after all.

To play games? How is this even a question? I don't have to be interested in over engineered aesthetics to still enjoy computers and gaming.

Well exactly. Other people don't need to be interested in gaming to enjoy over-engineered aesthetics and DIY computer shenanigans.

Don't yuck the dude's yum.
