As a viewer from Europe I appreciate the translation of the 1m sq feet to sq meters.

[@flywithmesm]

Came here to say something similar 😆

[@bryanzandler9060]

I absolutely love Phil's humor!

[@duke605]

As a non-American viewer, same

[@Dwarfi01]

Ja

[@stealthrabbit1982]

Που εισαι μαγκα

[@QueenSaffryn]

Thank you Phil for translating into metrics, it is much appreciated

[@carlospuig15]

YES!!! I love so much when they do that!!! I have never say it. But love that about the channel

[@kevinrobbins2429]

wegoup is probably We Go Up as the spacers make things go up 😂

[@TheVillainOfTheYear]

Obviously, but I like "We Goop," better.

[@garyschei]

Well spotted 🤓

[@clashwithkeen]

came to say this lol

[@markusburkhard5712]

good catch, that means they are actually missing some spacers between the lettres of their logo!

[@TarterSauce]

THat's what I was thinking.

[@joshuaflowers736]

12:24 phil is the only reason i stay for the whole video. XD

[@AlfredStoppels]

The Skunkwork is gonna be Breathtaking. I love this work in progress 🙂

[@gustavmh8423]

nothing can beat a classic for those we start watching you channel 10 + years ago we love old school, and skunkworks should never leave the channel as you name is the trademark of the brand keep working BTW more videos about the 2 idiots series would be nice

[@stacyromanchuk]

This is my first time seeing a SkunWorks build and it's awesome! Hey Phil and Nic! 👋

[@CheesyCrotch]

so much better here at Jayz for while now, keep doing the hardware/building content.

[@tobbhert2256]

Such a beast of a rig, all those fans must put some really nice airflow/pressure in the case. Would love to see a new video with smoke to visualize the airflow

[@PenguinConspiracyProject]

Yay! More Skunkworks content!

[@tonivazquez1081]

Love how the build is coming up. With this black matte appearance and being a Skunk works build I will name it The NightHawk. I think is a fitting name and a homage to the first stealth plane that Skunkworks designed. And for the unsure people, Yes, the SR-71 or the AE-12 were low observability and very fast and high, but NOT stealth, simply untouchable by their speed and altitude.

[@dembro27]

Nebula is probably my favorite of your builds, but Skunkworks is a classic and this new version is gonna be awesome too.

[@PurpleKnightmare]

Thanks for the update! I love how it looks so far!

[@rubyvolt]

I have an Antec full tower that started with a PIII and went all the way up to a first gen core CPU. It now holds a P5K with a Q6850X quad core, 4GB, dual ATI X1900's in crossfire. Win XP. It totally rocks. It is great to have great cases to put UGMs in.

[@gtifury310]

Looking good! Glad to see Skunkworks make it's way back!

[@acen486]

i absolutely love this style of build. Always been a big fan of the stealth fighter jet type schemes

[@HazelPlace89]

Already looks amazing!

[@Putzl52]

It’s so cool to see SkunkWorks back again! Can’t wait to see it done.

[@clearlydisabledgaming]

We appreciate Techtober SO hard to help get us through these weird PC building times we are in. We love your hard work overall and on this revival. Long time viewer, love it all!

[@user-xp2gc9dn2g]

I would love to be able to just pick through Jays junk room .. Probably come out of there with a top tier build .. May look a little wierd and mismatched colors but would be the best PC 99 percent of us would ever have .. Jay really is living the dream good for him !

[@scuffedtech]

Yes!! Part 3 is here!!!

[@tycro]

It makes me so happy to see skunkworks back in action.

[@berndkemmereit8252]

I love the effort and DIY you put into it, just to make the Pump holder. I can't wait to see how that will look like.

[@thebaum64]

May be one of my favorite looking builds so far, and by a long shot. Can't wait for the next vid!

[@todesgeber]

Skunkworks is going to be absolutely incredible when finished. the floating platform already looks and functions beautifully.

[@mattm1773]

excited to see the completed "re-build" of skunkworks! great stuff Jay!

[@jamafett]

I'm from the UK, 42 and also called Jay. I'm old enough to understand both inches, feet, meters and millimetres, and i feel permanently confused 😅. Love the vods, really looking forward to seeing the finished build. Thanks JTC team

[@cyberbrain232001]

Love the Skunkworks build. Since you have started this build it is inspiring me to plan for my next rig.

[@thqp]

Very happy to see more Pc build videos lately! Skunkworks is going to look good as ever!

[@deltafors24-73]

I really enjoy the vlogs! It's nice to see the thought process!

[@whatroad5652]

i love this build so far

[@Grue_ni]

Allready looks awesome 👍

[@smashed_penguin]

JayzTwoCents PC DIY videos makes me want to do Room DIY Stuffs

[@robertacedia9979]

Amazon sells PC standoffs ... great to have the boards/cards/pumps/reservoirs at what ever level you want or need ... can make running tubing look much better & a lot easier ... they also sell blank sheets of metal, and thread cutters for adding your on screws where you need them, etc.

[@playstationRLZ]

I'm pumped for the skunkworks revival. Its looking great, jay! Keep it up!

[@Pro4TLZZ]

Thanks team

[@dboii54]

Thank you guys for Techtober! Your hard work to bring us continuing content is appreciated. Better to do it in October, than the November and December months you've done. Phil, your editing is friggin on point as always. Jay, been watching you since the OG Skunkworks. Thank you for always keeping it real, and grounded (as much as you can).

[@jeremybarber2837]

The tri-tone is coming together sooooooo good.

[@BerzerkaDurk]

8:49 - hahahahahaha. Nice work, Phil.

[@ricardoabh3242]

Looking good

[@nathanwildthorn6919]

Jay, that setup is pretty badass-looking, man! 😮 Wish I had one like that! 😊

[@renfried7255]

Don't know if anyone has already said this, but looks like you're walking us through a digital storm setup. And I'm here for it!

[@shibbypoopalot]

The only thing I'd recommend is picking up some matte PPF and applying it over the monoblock. That's the only bright chrome in the build, so getting that matte'd would be the cherry on top.

[@trpla976]

Seriously cool 🤘

[@nicofino200]

this "rebirth" come perfectly ! Iam planning to build a New Pc with Watercooling for the first time and already decided to take the Lian Li V3000 Plus. Your Build gives me some inspiration on some decisions cause the cases are a bit similar ! Keep up the good work ! Greetings from Germany !

[@jd31068]

It looks good! Crazy how the accent colors make a difference in what you see. I didn't even notice the OC on the pumps until you put the fittings in and then they popped out at me.

[@srt4life2006]

I can’t wait for skunkworks to get finished it looks so awesome already!!! Also really hoping for RTFM this week been missing the show lately

[@gilmarlp]

We need a "Skunkworks - Build Project Type Ongoing CasssseeeeeeLabs SMA8 Thing" t-shirt!

[@Anthony69420]

Looking good amigo

[@samrec]

This is shaping to be a very interesting built

[@G-man_the-cyber-guy]

2:50 --> The Rock and his eyebrows meme 🤣🤣🤣

[@iRMaliciousTV]

This build has kind of inspired me to try a water cooled system of my own. Do to the fact I don't have JayzTwoCents resources, I'm buying piece by piece, paycheck by paycheck.

[@Rohanology27]

Phil, sir, that backup tone on Nick WAS GOLD

[@user-qe8uu7co6i]

Awesome, ShunkWork forever.

[@Subaru_God]

Skunkworks is looking good

[@byronfranek2706]

I've started using 3/16" ACM panels for bulkheads. Easy to score and snap to size, easy to cut with power tools, and both sides have silver brushed aluminum skins, which can be painted.

[@xero110]

I like the build v/log videos. Please, do them more. Unless the algorithm hates it, which sadly happens way too much.

[@jason75418]

I can't wait to get into custom loop cooling. Just waiting for my budget to allow me. I love these videos.

[@Cirux321]

I almost forgot about Red Mist. That was a beast in its own right.

[@itsdeonlol]

W Skunkworks!

[@jondonnelly4831]

I hope Caselabs will start manufacturing soon. I'm glad jay is using that old case again!

[@Arhey]

I like the X-Flow rads for this purpose, so you can go from CPU to rad in the back and come out in front to get to the reservoir. Makes it a lot cleaner.

[@Shovel_Cat]

Out of everyone one the UTube, you make me want to fully water cool my system. I’m not doing it. But you make me want to.

[@m4dizzle]

Seems like the perfect build for a EK Manifold / distro block of some kind

[@zenosfire]

YAY Nic!

[@garyboyles5762]

A cool idea for a build, royalty free: a full stealth build. Sacrifice all extras such as RGB, m.2 for storage for less cable requirements. Wifi, Bluetooth mobo. Solid cooling, and proper safe overclock AMD

[@Mihnea729]

Cool !

[@g.waits4gainz205]

niceeeeeeeeeeee hahahaha! thanks for the vlog and MAN your going hard to make it happen adn thats exactly what skunkworks deserves GOOD LUCK!

[@felixm.8910]

Hey Jay, Skunkworks looks awesome so far! I just remembered that you usually advocate for an adequate way to drain the loops. Where will you add the drains in the respective loops?

[@noel1987o7]

It's Alive Dr. Jayenkenstein.. IT'S ALIVE.. 😁😁

[@DimitarAtanasov]

Hey Jay! Actually you have 2 ARGB headers - 1 with a proprietary cable in the top right corner which provides 2 headers and the 1 in the bottom you've showed in the video. Cheers!

[@Terrados1337]

Thats the kind of PC I always wanted to build! Alas, budget constraints exist :( Looking forward to the next Update!

[@retrosean199]

The wiring etc. reminds me of what the inside of a pinball machine back glass looks like ;)

[@MegaAkmaluddin]

WE GO UP

[@chris_hertford]

It's looking like this build might get finished!

[@justinjesse2107]

That platform looks really well done. Giving me the itch to make some custom case mods now. Great job

[@LouisKleiman]

Long live Skunkworks!

[@VadikRamm]

Hey Jay, I have this exact board and I may have a word of advice for ya (not that you need one, lol). Since you will be using your 4090 on this board, you won't be able to run it @ x16 speed because of the NVME that you have installed in M.2_1 slot. That slot shares bandwidth with PCIEX16(G5)_2 so when M.2_1 is populated your card will be limited to x8 speed. You can mitigate that by installing your NVME in slot M.2_2 or M.2_3.

[@QLabdiMilano]

Jay, you definitely need aquasuite to manage your fans, another world trust me

[@OntarioGuy430]

That GSkill ram looks awesome in there - the heatsink kind of matches the motherboard heatsinks.

[@phantomflame0658]

And the fans also have this angular design

[@christopherangell7579]

How can I NOT watch the ad read when Jay calls it "Pay the bills time" lmao

[@rum66runner]

Legend has it Jay has never finished a pc and this is just proof

[@beargang8853]

Looks great I want to finish my 1000D but always seems to be changing it

[@Baymore8]

It's builds like this that make me miss SLI

[@GooseGosselin]

We go up.

[@keithattwood59]

Time to make your own distro plate😊

[@Supremacy5k]

Jay, the fanhub in the top, mount it in the top, not at the top of the backplate. That way the fan wires will come down along the backplate, and not sticking out as they do now.

[@chaosdefinesorder]

One suggestion/idea: maybe the "floating panel" for the pumps should have been the exact same dimensions as the MoBo on the left, and then have the panel and MoBo mirrored about the two cable grooves in the centre? I can't quite see if those cable holes are centred in the case in the first place, though...

[@chrisbrooker9456]

Silver cap stickers for the centre of the fans would tie in nicely and reflect any RGB

[@williamtufts3600]

2:52 this is what happens when you leave Jay unattended.

[@foresttaylor7850]

Man, I wish I had a SMA8 to paint old computer beige and do a pseudo-sleeper build in

[@sgottoboni]

Phil what a nut. 😂

[@hd-be7di]

Full tower case like it's 1996... Jayz's old-school and it shows :P

[@MattThomson]

We go up

[@alansutherland6663]

I love the fact that Phil still put the m^2 conversion for “a million square feet”

[@shanehammond4366]

Thank you Phill, for not translating Jay's noises while he was fingering the grommet!

[@carpentb17]

I love alpha cool glass RES /Pump Combo.

[@phantomflame0658]

Same I still do like the Ultitube more cause it doesn't have the support bars, this is still cool though, once you go glass you never go back

[@TwinShards]

Jay the fams are mat black, why not just let 'em spin and use sand paper so the center can also get a mat finish. Easier than trying to find mat stickers

[@ballinbenny0128]

Jay try gun metal stickers on the fan to match the case. I think it would break up all the black and tie the case into the fans.

[@trmptplyr2368]

Jay shooting his own video, while the rest of the team perpetrates shenanigans in the background is always a great look for this channel. Love the Phil and Nick cameos in this one.
