The Humble PC

I see you on the social media with your

gaming rigs you don't know how to stay

humble but I do and it's all thanks to

my friend Amed from ABK case his humble

computer cases will take your ego from

Elon Musk to Keanu Reeves in two weeks

flat or your money back but what exactly

is humble about this I mean he certainly

isn't referring to the Quality at $330

it's among the price here options for

cases but it looks and feels topnotch

deserving of the premium and besides if

you don't have that kind of money his

store features a wide variety of designs

for as low as

$110 I mean pretty good for a smalltime

entrepreneur and a local metal shop

taking on the big players in the case

Market maybe that's what he

means so you just stand there mute I

guess okay he says his cases are

handmade and powdercoated and unlike

some random drop shipper I was not able

to find his product on AliExpress and he

has hundreds of satisfied customers if

his Etsy reviews are anything to go by

so I can't wait to build my humblest

computer ever starting with these

goldplated fittings these look sick but

they don't really say humble do they no

but neither is this segue to our sponsor

ug green with its 12 gen Intel processor

expandable 8 gigs of ddr5 memory

integrated AI smart assistant and more

there's a lot to love about their Nas

sync dxp 6800 Pro stay tuned to learn

description our relationship with a got

off to a bit of a rocky start when we

overpaid for our humble Case by about

$50 on eBay when we reached out to him

through Etsy and asked hey what the heck

is up with that he explained that that's

just because of eBay's higher seller

fees since we were in contact we

followed up with hey who the heck are

you and why are you making these cases

and the story is fascinating he let us

know that he currently operates in a

small machine shop in Turkey where he's

been making his own PC cases for about

four years now in that time ABK has

expanded their lineup to include

wall-mounted cases like this one and

even some open concept desktop cases the

configuration we went with includes two

large cutouts on the top for radiators

as well as well I don't want to spoil it

let's show you guys how it goes together

we're going to kick things off with this

Maximus z790 hero motherboard from Asus

which comes in at a modest

$550 not quite 1%er yet no but you're

definitely in the single

digits look In fairness to us AMT says

this computer was I quote made to hang

computer parts on the wall and enjoy a

magnificent view well gosh darn it if

that's what it was made for then EK did

the right thing hooking us up with all

these goldplated fittings I'm going to

stop you right there lonus uh we

recorded this video a few weeks ago and

used a bunch of parts from Ek since

filming there have been allegations of

mistreatment from ek's staff and our

friends in the industry we hope we can

remove this disclaimer in the future but

now back to the video bo boy did they

ever sent a lot though we're going to

use as many as we can no bends no B

every Bend Will Be A fitting we're going

to be scuba diving safe okay cuz we're

not going to get the

bends it's a scuba diving illness don't

worry about it it doesn't have it's not

funny then stop saying them

never oh shoot is that a GPU block

that's a mono block baby wait for what

the motherboard well you also have a CPU

block yeah you get to pick I think we

should go mono block okay we were going

to go with a core I9 139900 K 8

performance course 16 e course boost

clocks of up to 5.8 GHz but then we

thought that's not humble no so instead

we've gone with the

14900 KS the fastest chip in Intel's

lineup it turbos to over 6 gahz under

extremely specific

circumstances this is not nearly as

monol blocky as I was expecting it to be

in the old days you'd have motherboard

monol blocks that covered the whole

fraking thing including the chipset and

whatever uh this is just the CPU and vrm

so this is not too much work to install

what stop you're going to break the

board I am so confused right now look H

goes down on a threaded nut oh get the

nutshot

or if this goes well maybe I'll Water

cool my computer for my AMD upgrade no I

forbid it why I got drawn you

didn't did you really

there we go

beautiful

just look at us screwing

together sorry does this go here no

where here no here boom done no oh isn't

that worth the install of the mono block

oh yeah it looks great oh my God look at

how blinged out these ones are didn't

you tell me that some of these are like

fake ones yeah the Chrome ones they're

just dummy sticks oh but we wanted the

visuals of the Chrome we're still going

with 2 48 gig sticks here I believe

they're at 6,800 megga transfers per

second so these are some pretty fast 48

gig sticks then yes they are there's a

good time to point out the tolerances

cuz sometimes these Indie like case

manufacturers can really struggle with

getting all the tolerances lined up so

be interesting to see how the

motherboard screws down not

great look at this one oh wow yeah it's

pretty crooked also I couldn't help

noticing that these standoffs are so

short that the back plate actually kind

of interferes with them there's a bit of

a spring action here wait I have a

question for you how did we not go with

gskill Trident Z Royal they haven't made

DDR 5 yet really yeah they've only made

the ddr4 kits oh cuz that would have

been the humblest of all memory you

could have actually gotten it like gold

to match the fittings everyone knows

that the Royals are known for their

humility you're going to notice we have

two ssds here lus humble yeah reason

being is one we wanted one that we could

water cool obviously to match the theme

humble but number two we couldn't

actually put it in of these SSD slots

because when we Mount our riser to our

GPU it would block right so we're going

to put our water cooled SSD down here

and then our high capacity humble SSD up

at the top here nice yeah I'm putting on

the power button right now things are a

little DIY but I I like the

style yeah it's pretty cool on on that

would be on off on off on off on off on

off and off on off and off off and off

and off and off and off and off off off

off the next day now would you look at

this it looks great but are you pumped

not yet are you I see where you're going

with this stupid joke I think this is

going to look absolutely sick between

this gorgeous Quantum surface radiator

from Ek and wow is that a nice looking

res pump combo it actually fits in the

radiator slot this is going to be as

humble as a computer could possibly be

we've even gone with the humblest of

fans in the wrong

size damn are they I mean are they 120

mm cuz those look like awfully large

boxes for 120

mil that's okay making mistakes is how

we stay

humble are they small and they just come

in really big boxes I'm hoping maybe

they just have the humblest boxes can't

just call everything humble yes oh they

are okay oh I was really worried wow

these are heavy they're solid metal

orientation wise I'm kind of

feeling fan cables down do these oh they

got daisy chain oh sweet not as elegant

as the Le and Le's it's just with a

cable essentially but it still looks

really clean speaking of which though uh

I'm a little concerned about the air

flow behind the case if we either have

to push or suck through so I did bring

three more fans that we could put Push

Pull config to help lift this radiator

just a little bit more more um if you

think it's needed I don't think we need

it then let's not do it we've got all

this ventilation all around here some

even at the top here and you would be

surprised how little space a fan

actually needs above it to suck and

blow air so I'm thinking we're going to

go pushing air in it's not ideal for

maintenance but it looks better and

what's more humble than doing whatever

it takes to look better that does look

beautiful yeah well no beautiful is not

quite the right word um what's the word

I'm looking for humble

humble so on the ABK website in the area

up here where we're putting our RADS

they actually just had this like acrylic

panel here that wasn't full of anything

it had no liquid had no tube Outlets oh

that's his whole new thing he's got an

acrylic cutter now and he's going to

make his own Reservoir yeah I think

that's what it's teasing but he doesn't

yet doesn't yet so we thought we'd put

this in one of these spots but the

problem as you'll notice the pump kind

of oh would hit the wall so we actually

stole some standoff so we got a dry wall

saw we did not cut a hole to make roof

in the wall no I mean that's kind of an

Elijah solution what we actually ended

up doing was we took these standoffs

we're going to use these to help prop

this up so that way our pump doesn't end

up hitting the wall we ended up going

with this pre-water block 490 from Ino

3D called the eye chill frostbite it's

got 24 gigs of vram it's flipping fast

it's super clean looking H well it's a

little dirty but it's got a clean look

to it for mounting we're going to need a

couple of brackets oh where are the

brackets oh you have brackets this is

the support bracket cuz it's going to

have some sag on it sure is wow is that

ever heavy to get the pcie bracket

they're actually installed on the

underside of this case oh good how

convenient

yeah this is where all the extra

mounting hardare is for all the stuff

these are the post for the plexiglass

the power supply mhm mhm it's all just

screwed into the back here neat nice now

does it come with a pcie riser or do we

just BYO BYO we had to bring our own not

great for the price crap this Riser so

long no no that's fine cuz here's what

we're going to do okay uh just leave it

okay y oh yeah see not so bad we'll just

kind of flatten a little bit back there

so go ahead and plug that into the

bottom of the card and okay I'll just

take up whatever extra slack we have

okay stop

yeah

okay stop you have it lined up how are

you not able to put it in I don't know

oh I didn't uncp the PCI clip

okay oh shoot what we didn't put the SAG

bracket on first why we need to why we

can get in there just give it a little

no stop oh my God is uh that supposed to

happen when you're screwing something in

I don't think so is the other half in

there oh yeah no no

we're just going to turn it into a 632

hole we're just going to drive that in

there and it broke off no no no after

just half a dozen extra steps we're back

to where we started with an M3 threaded

hole I do take shortcuts sometimes and

sometimes they end up being long cuts

but you know what are we having fun

exactly no I'm actually asking are are

we having fun

exactly

nice I do want to check out the power

supply at some point but I want to

figure out our Loop order

first

yes yeah sure okay we've gone with the

RG Thor 1600 watt titanium and I know

what you guys are thinking 80 plus

titanium efficiency a 10-year warranty

that's not humble but don't worry we've

got a plan we've replaced the stock

cables with these gold and silver cable

mod ones with their Pro Series cable

Combs humble oh my God come

on just it's too shy and humble can't

just call every part humble yes I can

when you're humble like me you can do

whatever you want it's actually kind of

funny that we started out building a

humble computer and it built a humble

us so this is why I always come back to

water cooling it's a pain in the butt

like this is going to look really good I

know right and humble do you know how

much these fittings

cost would you like to

know I would guess a humble $12 each

damn bang on really yeah they're $12

each I'm really good at guessing this

kind of thing it's one of my most humble

skills I think we're going to have to do

some

bends I don't think there's any avoiding

it yeah a I think we should do a 90 here

okay then a fitting okay then a straight

then a 90 here then a Bend okay that's

the way okay yes Dad I prefer Papa I've

told you that no you've actually said

you prefer Daddy but I have said neither

of those things we're joking yeah you're

a kid to me so calling him dad's

appropriate then mhm I prefer Daddy no

yes

daddy wait you have to put fittings in

this yeah I thought the two that's why I

said like this this this and this was

going to be a bit much that looks

amazing okay that's that's going to be a

long run that might that run might be

too long right there in the middle of

the

span so

dumb oh wait there's one thing I

forgot this not humble can you get me a

more humble sop fitting

please want to learn to bend tubes sure

I guess we are now let do it let's do it

so what we want to do is we want to heat

up the tube kind of evenly around not

just in one spot because then things get

a little

kinky oh yes okay two things one do not

lose any of these O-rings okay it will

leak all over the place big mess

everyone dies number two you got to note

the depth that it goes into the fitting

okay there see that now it's in oh okay

so now noting how deep it goes into the

fitting we got to figure

out where we want to cut it off to in

order to achieve the height that we want

got

it collar goes there so this is a

potential problem when you have really

short runs the collar can't really sit

on the bent part cuz it's not round

anymore so realistically about there is

about as short as you can reasonably go

okay there you go you did your first

Hardline run I mean you did it yeah you

in the sense that like you were there

okay it's like working with Dad you know

yes oh whoops sorry Dad this extension

is so

stupid it's a $30 bling

attachment humility attachment oh sorry

stay humble all right you B on it this

time sure it's time oh

shoot your going like a sag because it's

so heavy look at that run though okay is

that sick or what God I can't believe

how humble this computer is what is this

what's what why aren't they the same

height doesn't

matter once again this PC has now

claimed three people it's making humble

I feel very humble right now there you

go wiring is complete almost what are

you doing well I need the STA power for

the pump that is not a humble cable I

don't know where the rest of the cables

went close your

eyes search for your inner

humility and the cable location will

reveal itself to

you okay open your

eyes do you see it no oh okay I'm

calling that good enough which one oo I

know this should be a little shorter o

it's pretty obvious yeah all right fine

yeah I got to take this off I would say

acknow in your own stupidity pretty very

humble yeah damn

it okay go do writer me no I want to

finish this run how about you do this

one Elijah okay so basically it goes up

and over so you can use this piece for

that just put a Bend right in the middle

okay and then just adjust your length

until you're high enough to make it over

to here with a Bend that's going to be

the Saga you guys Elijah doing one Bend

in this machine well two yes okay why do

you why is that tube so short cuz he I'm

doing just a little Bend here yeah you

okay so if you do it with a really short

tube you're going to make it really hard

on yourself cuz this is the one you told

it's going to be very hard to not heat

the entire okay okay okay the one he

told me to use here let's use this one

this will be ow it's hot and then you

just do a

little cool here blow on

it you never done this before have you

no

all right let's pull this sucker ow it's

really hot I swear there's a reason we

keep him

around that's pretty cash money right

there you know what it's a it's a little

high but I think I'm okay with it oh

it's too short proud of you Elijah is

what I would say if I was proud of you

oh my God I am really nervous about

doing this Bend does that look good

Glenn what do you think

Buddy wow no response thanks okay I'm

really confident now cool that's not

terrible it's not terrible oh look at

this look at

this this looks sick he still doesn't

get it sorry what am I missing you're

not being humble oh

God if you're doing this at home kids

put paper towel around the areas you

want to protect we can lay this back

down be watching for leaks Elijah what

the hell what the I'm trying to plug in

the fans no we can't lay back down we

can't fill it like that hit the power

switch and then we turn it on and hope

that nothing

explodes look at that

humility

okay it's the humblest of computers it

has a no working power button did it

accidentally get unplugged no

unfortunately the wires that are inside

that little connector didn't get folded

correctly so the connector started

sliding off when we tried shoving it

back on it just fell apart okay so we

have found a couple of quality issues as

we've made our way through the build but

the good good news is that we have a

humble motherboard with a humble power

button right there and that's no harder

to reach than that if we're being

realistic this is up there my man it

looks well it's not up there yet we're

going to put it up there on the wall yes

we are oh that looks sick does it leak

no I don't see anything I mean I hope

wow that looks flipping awesome okay so

Elijah is this the part where we fix

Jake's nonsense on this run here it's

too long here and too long here comes

off the thing like

that do you want to judge my two bends

I'd love to this one and this one that

is really wow what what a radius you've

got there yeah to be fair I have no

excuse it was it was my first

Bend guys you got one word to describe

this computer what is it humble see

what's one word for black and

gold um brilliant I don't know we need a

desk yeah we'll drag a desk in after oh

okay is that what makes the setup humble

there's no desk or no it's made to look

at not to game on right now normally oh

you'll actually notice there's three

almost like nail cut outs as if you were

to like hang it like a picture frame

right I didn't trust that on our fake

Studio walls right that's fair so I had

Logistics Mount this piece of 2x4 that's

got a little slit in it yeah so we're

going to give that a go

one thing we didn't um anticipate you

can see the wood right

through oops oh

yes

wow don't draw attention to it it's good

it's good we got to fire this up yeah we

do

okay whoa wow that is humble yeah it is

uh oh we need a humble chair oh that one

okay well you have to sit back and

admire it looks so good it's the perfect

angle who needs to look at the monitor

when your PC looks like this let's go I

mean 60 FPS on these settings is pretty

wild dude yeah it's humble time

baby you see these guys dodging into the

car oh wow that one guy ended up under

it and he gets up what a tank are you

kidding me holy humble watch him get up

again he got up again that's not humble

buddy okay how about this guy how about

this guy right here look at this humble

white suit B I love this machine it

definitely needs two RADS and then a

pump res combo right there but I got to

give props to a met the design actually

solid pretty easy to build in pretty

intuitive and while there's definitely

some things that he could do better now

that I got a closer look at the powder

coating job yeah and it could be quite a

lot better overall I kind of love it it

looks really good it's a really great

layout and again they have all the

different layouts as well so if you

don't even want this size they have some

that are about half as big so you can do

like a mini ITX version yeah I mean it

wouldn't be humble but it'd be

something just like this humble segue to
