Watercooling is pretty cool. But hard to make fit in Small Form Factor cases. Even with compact options from the likes of Alphacool or EK, trying to make the pump, reservoir, and radiators fit in a way that can also cool your Nvidia RTX 4090 and Intel Core i9-13900K is a tall order. Billet Labs hopes to change that with their Monoblock. Perhaps the most overkill SFF water cooling solution we've ever seen.

Hey! After a bit of tinkering post-video we saw improved thermals with the Monoblock. Running Cinebench and MSI Afterburner for 30 minutes we saw temps peak at CPU: 85 C on the 12900KS GPU Hotspot: 87 C on 4090. (remember this is the without using the proper kit for the 4090) What do you think about this MonoBlock? Let us know below!

When called on it, basically saying it wasn't worth their time to do it right. Then allegedly auctioning off a prototype that LMG is said to have promised to return not once, but twice.

@pepsicherry6389 9 месяцев назад

LTT became a sumbag Inc. Billet Labs sent a prototype to LTT for testing. Billet was originally okay with LTT keeping the block for future builds, etc. After it turned out that Linus didn't like the product, they asked for it to be returned as mentioned in the email displayed. LTT tested it on the wrong GPU model. Results were bad... y'know, because they didn't use the GPU the block was designed for. LTT got some scathing feedback about the poor testing methodology. Linus defended their decision to use the wrong GPU for testing on the WAN show by saying it shouldn't be expected of him to spend an extra $500 to do the testing properly and shat on the product, claiming that it's bad anyway, so why bother. LTT never sent the prototype back to Billet Labs, but rather auctioned it off at their expo.

having worked as a CNC technician I can tell you that paper gaskets are perfectly fine. they probably decided to go with paper because of cost along with thermal performance of the gasket. paper gaskets are used to seal gear boxes, motors and all kinds of things that operate at higher pressures and temperatures than a water block could even conceive. its cheap and is way more easily customizable to specifications as well as does the same job a rubber gasket does, just as well if not better in certain situations. the one downside is reusability, it doesn't really like to be reused, but I guess that's where the cheap aspect of the material comes into play.

Why go through all the effort of machining this and just slapping on a "cheap" paper gasket - wasn't this meant to be no expense spared?

@pithlyx9576 11 месяцев назад

@@diotough paper gaskets like that arent standard printer paper, if you are applying the same force you would need to fully seat an o-ring it will be just fine. Not everything in a cnc machine is torqued, those applications i listed are just to show they are robust for dealing with heat and fluids That being said certain things like a waylube tank (an oil reservoir for the rails of your turret or table) are just acrylic with little m5 screws. i have seen many o rings and paper gaskets and i havent had nearly as many issues with paper gaskets. Whereas i have had many bad o-rings cause they have a nick in them or they dry rotted. idk the real answer to why they went with it, all i know is they deemed it was good enough and they seem like the people who know what they are doing.

@FuckGoogle502 11 месяцев назад

Having worked as an automotive machinist, I still would prefer a raised lip and a matching groove to lock that thin paper gasket in. Also, the computer has to constantly deal with more drastic temperature fluctuations as it performs various tasks creating different amounts of heat. A car (especially a street driven one, not a race car) heats up and stays at a fairly stable temperature until it turns off again.

Dear Linus, After the Gamers Nexus video I just thought to let you know that, in the UK, where this company is based, a comparable system from EK costs £400 (cpu and gpu) whereas and the cpu and gpu cooling solution from billet labs cost £649. If the billet labs solution is cooler, then it would, in my opinion, be a valuable option for people wanting the best of the best. We have the i9, which we all know no one needs to play cs:go, but people buy it anyway. And the same goes for water cooling in general, it’s not needed to keep your gpu cool, it’s done as a choice, as a style. Maybe you know this, maybe it comes across in the video.
