Cooling a PC with a 2.5HP Pump

Published 2022-04-07
We've had some bad ideas before, but hooking a 2.5HP gas powered pump up to a computer has to be the worst.

The advantage of the motor pump is that you won't notice your fan being too loud...
-
"I think we can overclock the pump"
-
Others: "How much did you over clock your PC?" Linus: "To about 15 mpg!" Others: "WHAT?!?!"
-
Although I enjoyed the video, I still want you to revisit the "Heating a room with a PC". You had a pc hooked up to an old water space heater, and used the PC as the heater, but it got clogged up from all the junk that was in there. Please do it again, but this time use a new/unused heating body to see it's true potential.

this truly is one of the linus tech tips videos of all time
-
WHEW. thank GOD this video came out when it did. I was just about to start installing my General Motors EMD 710 series engine into my PC. guess I'll just go with air cooling this time around. Thank you Landon Tech Tips for this valuable insight!
-
When you decrease the pipe diameter and increase the flow you increase the friction of the water against the pipe wall, which should be factored into your head pressure calculation. You need larger diameter pipe and fittings.
-
What an insane video Feels like you came up with everything last minute like a class project
-
I love how you're using a gasoline-powered pump in front of an "EV Parking Only" sign.
-
This channel is progressively descending into madness and I'm all for it
-
I’m loving this type of content you and Alex seem to be focusing more energy/money into!
-
One of the best videos you've made so far! This was a thrill to watch! Keep it up boys.
-
The most impressive thing about this video, is how clear the voices recording is, considering there is a fuel powered compressor running next to Linus and Alex.
-
"I think we can over clock the pump!" "Wait what?!?!" Hilarious stuff. I always love the crazy water cooling stuff LTT does.
-
To think that my first video for linus tech tips was whole house liquid cooling. After the many years, this brings joy to my heart.
-
Man that ad placement was on point. 👏 Love it!
-
I genuinely wanna hear alex explain the math
-
The engine wasn't overheating, it was just the paint cooking off for the first time since you hadn't really put it under load before. Those small air cooled engines are hard to kill
-
This was a fantastic watch, I know LTT is a big business with serious means but this informal silliness is just so refreshing! With fantastic production quality too!

him and james have some of the best and most entertaining stuff they come up with and theyre personalities make it that much better
