True fact: Water cooling attracts the ladies. Before they were like "Oh...you have a stock air cooler, I have to go"...

I loved the information, I have to admit I felt uncomfortable with the Wheel not having the same ratio as in the game x(

OMG Do a "retro-watercooling" build would love to see a watercooled pc using a heater core bonus points if the actual pc is old as well :D

Yeah...I save a lot of money on heating bills when I get my gaming on in the winter. I never need to have it on.

if my loop leaks one day ill have to say "my water broke"

You say that getting higher flow will not help cooling, and as a thermohydraulics engineer I have to disagree. The heat transfer laws state that the velocity of the fluid (hence the flow in a fixed diameter tubing) has an effect on the heat transfer, and indeed it has. And THAT has been proven many times, like in nuclear powerplants where the water flow in the cooling system has an effect on the nucelar core temperature (see the wikipedia heat transfer page for basics).

In my opinion, you do not see a difference in your system because your heat-dissipation bloc (or fan) does not have the capacity to evacuate more heat than it actually does, so THAT is limiting your system and not the fluid flow in your watercooling loop.

The point has to been made, as it was really hurting my engineer self hearing you destroying the laws of physics ^^

Except that, good video as always, keep up the good work.

Jayz you should download logitech profiler for  you g27 so that the swing  radious is the same in  game as when you turn your wheel, so that turning is  much more realistic

Rebuttal on water pump. YES, it does technically make a difference. The fan/radiator removes the heat from the water. You are right up to a point, that fan can only cool so fast. But if the water is moving very slowly, you might as well not have a water pump as the water is the median which the heat is transferred through, and the pump is what makes the system more efficient. I know the theory behind cooling, but I don't have any idea of what the flow rate is, though I imagine it would be wisest to choose the average speed. Obviously Jayz would know far more about that than I.

Jay your wheel in real life vs the game aren't in sync. If you want to fix this go to the logitech controller software and set your wheel to 900 degrees then apply.

Dang you nailed it, one thing you should have mentioned is that increasing radiator size increases heat capacity not lower temps as many many many people think, awesome video man keep up the good work

The absolute best coolant you can use is distilled water and Valvoline Zerex race coolant at a 90/10 ratio. If you absolutely feel you must run a dye in your tubing because you're not a fan of the pink tint the Zerex gives your coolant, stick with coolant leak detection dye used in AC units as it will never gum up and has less of an impact on heat transfer.

I have been running this coolant through a Lang D5 pump with a copper block/aluminum rad for 10 years with only 1 coolant drain, the coolant that came out after the first 5 years had no buildup and the pump has head pressure as high at 10 years old than it did when it was brand new.

Very informative, very hilarious listening to your frustrations while racing.

Hey Jay, I had no idea that you were a big Racing fan and had many modified cars. I share the same passion.  What were some of those cars that you had, and what type of mods did you make for the Road Racing?  Love all your videos, I hope to get a response from you. Rock on Brotha!

If you catch this comment Jay, I've also got a G27 setup and run Assetto Corsa. If you go into the logitech controller settings you can set the wheel up to register the full 900 degree rotation, then when you open AC go into settings and choose the "G27 + H-shifter 900" (or something like that) preset. It'll really help with making the controls way more realistic. 

Also, props for the road racing community. I run track days with an old Toyota Supra that me and my dad set up for the track.

i love watercooling, You don't need a room heater during winter :D just play some games for a bit or watch a movie. Cozy as shit.

just a note about the wheel, set it up so you get the full 900 degrees of rotation, so the game is 1:1 to what actions you are making.

What about using a antifreeze mix as a corosion inhibitor? I have a aluminum radiator and copper blocks. Is it ok to use the antifreeze?

my mother, who i havent seen in 2 years, had my brother bring me up her 5.1 surround system  that she wanted me to have for my birthday.
it's the same as Jayz!

Having a masters degree in engineering, and also working daily with the thermal design of heat exchangers (industrial size), I have to disagree with Jay. The velocity of the fluids in the exchanger matter. The higher the speeds, the better the heat convection. What limits the speed is the size and pressure loss of the system. Now, in a computer, with flows and heatloads being as small as they are, with the delta T not really being that great, the difference in the fluid velocity might be miniscule. But if what Jay is saying would be true, we would not need a pump at all, we could just use stagnant water. The fluid speeds matter, on a categorical level. For practical purposes in a pc-loop, maybe not so much.

if you have problems with the force feedback, try to reduce the sensibility of your wheel, so that you turn the wheel the same amount as in the game ;) makes it way easier :D
