How to Build the ULTIMATE Silent Gaming or Workstation PC

Even back in 2014 Linus be putting in exhaust fans backwards and magically gets fixed in another part of the vid. Asking your father in law for help I see in this one.

My OCD goes off when people use the word dampening to mean reducing waves (sound waves in this case). The word you want is damping. Yes, pedantic, but nerds gotta use the right words.

It's a shame annotations no longer work

Damn, he has been carrying around that same screwdriver for 6+ years now..

How to build a silent PC?




Turn off your cpu

where is the tech tip?

Mike's voice could put me to sleep 🥺 is so husky beautiful

could you please do the same video only with modern hardware?

That intro is like nothing I've ever seen from LMG

Intel?
You skinny little bitch.

Do yOu mIsS FeArlEsS TOo

Coming from Sept 2020, I was not expecting that intro

That's a lot of PCI-e slots haha

get gayed

whos here in 2020

This should be done again soon! Especially now when its getting colder. Its relevant now yes?

What this your old intro or something?

Who is watching this in 2030

Too big

this into seems like a apple add

Nowadays no ankle strip right?

My man really just plugged in the HDD LED the wrong way.

This intro is really good. I wish they could use it in their current build videos.

you're doing it wrong. get a cheap rackmount and a 4u chassis. mount in basement, and drop 1 usb 3.2 2x2 20ft cable and 1 hdmi 2.1 20ft cable. that's all you need. from the usb cable, you can hook up a multiport usb hub for a wireless controller/mouse/keyboard/soundblasterx G6. there, now it's 100% silent in your living room. enjoy.

i know its been 6 years but i just noticed you forgot to plug in the second cpu power connector

hi

One of the best intro in ltt

crazy to think theese parts were the top of the line

super professional as usual. thank you so much.

Old video but still some good information here. I wasn't aware that Seasonic was making fanless power supplies in 2014. They have 700W ones now. BeQuiet is a great company. Their fans really helped quiet my computer, though I'll be switching them out for Noctua NF-A12x25 fans which proved to be 3dB quieter in tests. I was surprised that you took the fans out of your BeQuiet heatsink. Didn't think that was an option for an I7 processor. They've got standalone sinks for 90W processors and below but nothing for the 125W gaming processors of today. Noctua has been teasing a 3 Kilo one since 2019. A silent GPU is the holy grail. The Palit GTX 1050 Ti KalmX 4 GB graphics card is the only thing that comes close, and it's near impossible to get a hold of one. It can play all the 1080 pre-2018 games perfectly on max settings, but for 4K it's supposed to be rubbish.

look at all those pcie slots!

Uhhh thanks, recommended? Love the intro though! BRING THEM BACK LINUS

The intro was ssooooo awesome .. bring it back

right now go back in time and buy some bitcoins)

Still using this case(only in red) 😂😂

It’s like a completely different channel

Linus seems personally invested in quiet computing, which is nice and comes through in stuff like this. Other channels will give lip service to noise levels but they don't seem to care as long as it can be measured at a "noise normalised" level which is significantly louder than what any quiet computing enthusiast would aim for anyway. Small details like Linus opting for a super sized air cooler over an AIO show he gets it

what a gay and 2014 intro hahaha. otherwise its great!

1$ per gig being considered cheap, damn how far we've come. My wd nvme ssd is rated for twice the speed at 2 gigs per second, but it's barely more than 10 CENTS per gig, it's only 3 times the price of a equivalent hard drive.

Development in other sectors have been pretty meh in comparison, compare the best card of the time, a 980, to a 3090 and the results are a bit disappointing. Instead of double performance for a tenth of the price, it's 3-4 times the performance, which sounds pretty good, but it costs waaaaaaaay more.

For anyone watching this in "the future", put the video to 1.25x for a more modern Linus experience

Holy crap that intro is amazing

Modern linus would be screeching at the lack of noctua components

Hello im from the future

Man I remember being in middle school when this video came out thinking a 980 was expensive...we didn't know how good we had it...

It's a pity that the website silentpcreview is now just a long list of ads with no information about noise level anymore... was probably sold

This video needs to be remade for 2023
