Seasonic are just the ballsiest sponsor ever. The fact that they were like "oh you're pushing power supplies to their breaking point? Here's the equipment we use. Try us." and then sponsored the LTT video on the Labs power supply tester just shows how much confidence they have in their products.

[@Joseph-C]

If you make a superior product then testing and comparing it against others is just great marketing. Same reason why the LTT screwdriver was compared to competitors for example. Seasonic just makes the best power supplies, but doesn't have any way to demonstrate it to the general public who aren't electrical engineers. Seasonic is very smart to give LTT the means to demonstrate their power supplies to their massive audience.

[@th3R0b0t]

"Oh, you're gonna have a PC case with a bunch of fancy lights, betcha you'll need an awesome power supply for that, don't worry, we're here. No worries it's just LEDs and LCD panels, we're sending 1600w."

Martina Please, you are a truly talented artist so DONT STOP DOING WHAT you're DOING! Thank you for this.

[@formes2388]

If you want something like this - I would strongly recommend starting with something smaller (medieval house comes to mind). It's actually fairly straight forward, but it does take some getting past the "this looks like crap and will never turn out" phase as until you get the final washes / dry brushing / protective clear coat - it won't look "right". You can do stuff like a wizards tower, or create the effect of it being a cliff face, or whatever else you can imagine - it's just foam, cardboard, some plaster / clay / whatever, and of course: Paint. Just to note: I've only more recently properly got into terrain / buildings - and have a 6 foot tall tower in the process of being plastered, while I learn some 3D modeling to get some supports, and other nick nacks designed so I can print them and attach them. Yes it's a lot of work - but damn do the results of "I did this" make it worth the effort. In short: Be inspired - and get out and make yourself one damn awesome computer case mod.

I love the message about 2077 at 23:24. The cyberpunk genre is so much more than just the game, and yet people keep relating everything to that game when the genre has literally been around since the 80s and has so much more depth. Props for that

because of you, I have to pause on that part on full screen and stare reading the whole of it. No regret, thanks!

All cyberpunk (the game) did is damage the style.

@@Bluhbear Man, I still remember playing that one at a friends' house with a group of other friends, we had a nerd tech side, so other than Cyberpunk, we played BattleTech too, board and C64 version. I feel ancient and yet youthful because of nostalgia.

[@EironKyle]

I didn't even think of that until it was mentioned in the long message. CDPR's failure did unfortunately have bad consequences on the genre. It's such a shame. I hope other devs learn from this and don't do the same to other "punk" fiction genres.

[@NatePhysicsTutor]

Important FYI: Most of the leak testers you can find on the market use generic pressure gauges which don't have markers to indicate which pressures are correct for a traditional PC water cooling system. In the video he pushes a tube out of the gasket from the pressure he uses to pump up his system. However, even when he used "less pressure" it was still too much pressure even though the guage shows it in the "green" region. This is a really bad design flaw and can result in displacing the seals in your system from excessive pressure. Consult the maual but I wouldn't suggest going over 0.5 bar for a leak test. 0.3-0.4 is more than enough. Any more and you're more likely to crack plexi or damage gaskets.

The amount of planning, construction and paint work that goes into a piece like that is staggering.
