Take a look at “rackable” servers, they had the I/O at the front of the case too, they were made that way so you could mount servers in the front and back of the rack, they’re also really short depth, great for wall mount racks

[@DJDocsVideos]

It is clearly aimed at smaller companies and production houses and not data centers. Personally I prefer my cables to run in the back of the rack and connect up to the KVM switch if the machine doesn't come with a out of band management (preferable LOM) interface. Wonder if there's a remote management card available for this puppy.

[@BigJayAll]

Smart. Short circuit can both compete in the "let's do it quickly as it happens" market, but also work as official teasers to LTT-long productions - and also bode well with more "chill" personalities from other LTT staff (Notably, Alex and Anthony). Really an amazingly sinergetic channel.

Well, 360mm radiator is as descriptive as a 10km long city..... A triple 120mm is a better explanation to me, though should say "fans". A 360 radiator can be 360mm wide and long, effectively needing 3x3 = 9 120mm fans... So both him and you are kind of wrong..... though both makes sense at the same time.

it exists but it is not owned by linus

[@Skymack351]

No! Just call it LinusTips

[@promethbastard]

The Max-Drop was the pinnacle.

[@dominicfastbender4029]

The first time I have seen something that truly impressed me in the pc tech space for ages. Really nice.

[@arvindravindranath]

The real question is - Can it play Crysis?

[@RandomUserName92840]

oh yes

[@krashd]

Yes, once you install Windows or Wine, unless Crysis has a Linux port.

[@goshtic9565]

It's not for playing Crysis. It's for rendering it.

[@Churchgrimm]

I'm wondering if it can play Crysis *inside Minecraft*

[@zxdrzxdr1]

That thing is a BEAST! Can’t wait for another video on it

[@collinschofield808]

This would be INSANE for Blender! It would probably finish the BMW benchmark in like a second!

[@TheEternalDreamers]

I can’t wait to see this thing tested. If I could afford one of these, I do enough rendering that it could be worth it

[@caiotbc]

Hey I think it's pretty cool but I really don't know what I would do with a system like that, could you explain it for me please? I mean, for professional work, wouldn't you be better off with actual server hardware? For reliability, price, support and compatibility reasons, isn't "gaming" hardware a little off?

[@lightfoot256]

Interested in the temps vs a 4u with the same setup. Plenty of 8+ slot rack servers available now with dual redundant 1600w psus. Looks like a 3u so there’s that. Also lots of water cooling madness. Admittedly it’s likely to be quieter than a system relying entirely on fans... but it still has 3 fans so... also RM likely means rack mount so surprised you were surprised. Lol.

[@simpson6700]

it's not just 3 fans cooling this whole thing, it's 6. the power supplies should also be intakes, that's why the fans are so far away from the radiator.

[@gsr_9978]

Impressiv product. kamino seems to be thinking a lot of crazy stuff and i like it. the little otto is beautiful as well

[@shalombhatta6419]

Just the way the GPUs are packed !! ! ! Epic !

[@ewwmin3m]

definitely want a full breakdown and review vid on this :D really curious to see how those graphics cards look

[@edwardgreenjr167]

I love RM equipment, but that IO though. It would have made more sense to have the mount ears on the other end, and just the plain exhaust of the radiator facing front with maybe even a nice cut-out logo there for good measure.

[@ColeMarkusen]

Not going to lie, love the GPU layout. Reminds me a bit of the sexy GTX295 dual PCB cards. They were terrible, but I loved them, lol.

[@formdoggie5]

3 120 hyperdense rad at 3000rpm is going to do a lot of cooling. It's going to sound like a jet engine at idle on the runway, but that's a shitload of airflow considering those fans do 64lpm airflow at 1200rpm if I remember correctly. You basically have 450lpm in cooling. As long as it's in an adjacent server room or closet and you dont have to sit right next to it you'll be fine.

[@ERRORFACE1]

the beard the angry ish aaaagrrrrrrhhh and the power kick made Linus sooo badass I even closed my eyes when his sandal flickered for a second ... i thought the case will pop out and hit me on the sofa

[@donloder1]

I think LMG should delve more into beastly machines outside of storage servers, gaming, and video encoding/processing. Like this one for 3d rendering, or anything that require raw gpu power.

[@Milky094]

This is the most ridonkulus build I have ever seen!. That method to cram 4 2080Tis into a server for factor is nothing short of genius!

[@adamjtoth]

Never skipped an AD so fast in my life, can we please turn this thing on and benchmark it? CMON!

[@ExaNightcore]

*Haven't seen Linus so surprised in quite a while!* :)

[@mat-mat101]

The way it was built looks cool by itself. :)

[@Mikitsune0]

0:25 seconds in the video and Linus already drops something. Love this channel.

[@plasmancer6104]

This and Linus’s personal rig really makes me want a server mounted PC case, but best place I could put it would be as a draw under my desk, which could be cool, because I don’t have a server cabinet... or a place to put one... or a reason to have one in the first place... hmmmm

[@impy1980]

Nuckling futs! Wow, thioos thing looks sick AF! I love when companies get creative and think outside of the box! And damn, Koolance, I remember those guys, their Exos cooling product was my first ever liquid cooler, must've been way back in 2004 maybe, wasn't quite and AIO, coz you had to buy the correct water block for your CPU and cut/connect all the pipes, and fill the reservoir yourself, but it also wasn't a full on custom liquid solution. It saw and AMD and Intel build. I've been liquid cooling ever since.

[@ebsolas]

Alright. I'm excited for the full video. HYPE!

[@bombapples1]

I remember Linus talking to Steve Burke last year at LTX about the process of transitioning writers in to hosts. I can only imagine that's what's happening to Andy so I just wanted to say keep up the good work. I can't wait for the fist co-host video.

[@cheesefries7436]

More weird server stuff please! This is cool as hell!

[@gunnar6674]

Interesting. This is like a GPGPU node built out of consumer hardware and enthusiast water cooling kit. Normally you'd just get fanless Quadro cards and stick them in a case full of server grade fans pushing lots of air through them and creating lots of noise.

[@RadicalEdwardStudios]

I wish they had put the controls in the back. Standard place for rats nests. They could do push pull intake over the rad to make up for it.

[@robertingold9547]

This was like a tease, no benchmarks, no stress test???? Damn you got me hyped then you let me down:( guess we will never know if that rad can handle all of those 2080tis???

[@RatikusuCh]

That looks amazing. If I went into doing hollywood-level special effects, my first goal would be getting one of these

[@k3nobi366]

This would have been a really COOL livestream

[@kienanvella]

those pcie risers have OCuLink x8 connectors, technically it's a bifurcation riser, but they are re-aggregating them on the card side.

[@EyesOfByes]

The Noctua 3000rpm fans are most powetful case fans I could find in retail. So I bought 6 of them.

[@matthewcane0]

I hope we are getting a full review of this!

[@chadr76]

Can't wait to see the tests!

[@PurpleKnightmare]

OMG I can't wait to see that working and tested!

[@diglet553]

The 9800 GX2! Now that takes me back to high school.

[@l_Darkwulf_l]

iPhone covered with gold diamonds and all the shit.... This is the real definition of high tech and high price. Good job Linus Tech Tips, showing us how far we've come in terms of building next gen machines and not covering tech in useless handmade or picked diamonds 😂

[@painmonke2940]

I like it when linus reviews things, that still manage to blow his mind

[@samrec]

Amazing engineering design on this one.

[@Roger101Watson]

Love this kinda stuff its crazy cool and typical Linus enthusiasm for it and all tech is just joyful.

[@joshuawyckoff9895]

The way I see it is that they have 6 fans pulling air through the radiator. The 3 fans that are blowing across the Motherboard and 3 PSU fans exhausting out the back. That is probably why they went with 3 PSUs instead of 1; they can get a lot more air through the radiator and thus better water cooling. I really like that idea, but it would be difficult to get right. The GPUs would not have been able to go in the back with this design.

[@mrbane2000]

Linus, they are good at cooling things, they know what they did when they made it with only 380 rad spaced out from fans, i guess there something about air charmer, looking forward to testing

[@996stoky]

having the io at the front is actually genius cause you don't need to go back and forth to plug stuff in you just plug it in

[@thepreacher3875]

A few questions: Can you exchange the PSUs while it is running? Can you use professional graphic cards because consumer cards don't sum up their memory? Can you exchange those cards while it is running? What to do when the water cooling starts dripping due to the 24/7 usage? Can you exchange memory while it is running? And what's about the network connections? QSFP possible? What about airflow? Rack mounted hardware must have front to back airflow or your air conditioning will not work properly ...

[@kfancey1]

I bought a nvidia 9800 gx2 for my build when it was new and unfortunately one of the gpu's crapped out 3 DAYS after the warranty expired. XFX wouldn't honour it either so I was stuck with a 1 year and 3 day old, $700 paperweight.. It still makes me sad to this day and I haven't built another gaming PC since, as much as I would love to I just can't..

[@karnige5804]

thats some quality craftsmanship

Hi, Im just new on this channel and aloso on Linus Tech Tips. I really enjoyed all the videos that I've seen on your channel, like unboxing pc, building pc, and also comparing some pc to the others. Im gaining new information on what PC would I buy by watching the vids on both of your yt channel. ❤❤❤
