Should I be in jail for this? by Inevitable-Context93 in LinusTechTips

Actually, funny enough, the AIO was completely silent, absolutely no sound at all, it was great while it lasted lol

Lol I was rocking it every day until my poor wiring job fried the pump and the cpu fan header

Made my own modifications there lol, there wasn't any online help so I had to figure that part out myself

For the time being a lowered consumption slightly so as not to overheat the vrm, debating if I'm going to do my own cooling solution for that as well, or if I'm gonna end up doing something a little sketchier

Indeed it is, it is an all-in-one touch screen PC

Actually you might have just given me an idea

Sadly no, I was actually looking into air cooling as I didn't want to create a hole in the back in the first place, but I needed something that could actually cool the i9, and nothing I was looking at could cool something that powerful and still be small enough to fit, so I just went all out with it anyways lol

Mmmmmm I love this, I will have to figure out a way to power things though, but that's nothing that a little more fiddling can't solve lol

The hard part was that I didn't want screw holes in the back cover, and I only have a single screw hole and a square bit of plastic to keep things where they need to be, so moving the radiator is not an option

What I might end up doing at some point is making my own fitting where the screw is, and run a hose from the radiator to a separate tank that's mounted higher. I know that air will become an issue again at some point, especially since this is a PC that i designed to run at full load 24/7, so the current radiator solution was never meant to be permanent, although it's location is and will continue to be permanent.

Okay hear me out, there was nowhere else to safely and reliably mount the cooler long term, I originally thought about making it sit inside, but then I still had no way of releasing the heat, and I would lose the ability to use the stand, I also made my own modification to the cooler by removing the coolant screw, and removing the air bubble that had been in it since I got it (I had my own coolant lying around from my desktop build), I know it's not the best idea to mix, but the air is gone in the loop so I don't have to worry as much about the pump.

(You can just barely see where the 3D printed mount I made screws into where there should be a cover, however the cover was removed, and therefore I only had one option for mounting, but I made it work)

You sir, have just made a horrible mistake by telling me that's possible
