iBuyPower Suite @ CES 2011 Featuring the Erebus Water Cooling Gaming System Linus Tech Tips

[DarkFireMario100001]

chuck norris approves of this computer.

[Grafix5]

what case it is

[moeiddon]

There Is Just one thing to notice quality computers dont use Amd or ati

[MrHippo00100]

@moeiddon well that's kind of a generalizing and incorrect statement. AMD makes CPUs and graphics cards that have a very high price to performance ratio. I will agree with you that if you want to make a super high end computer you should go with Intel and Nvidia but to say AMD=low quality is just stupid.

[moeiddon]

@MrHippo00100 well personally i have had very bad experinces with AMD 1) they used heat up aloooot O_o ... 2) ati always has driver issuess 3) in extreme pcs price performances is not an issue 4) by low quality i didnt mean that they used checp plastic instead i meant the issues

[TheDrunkenMantis]

From everything I've heard, iBuyPower is a horrible company. Extremely overpriced, graphics cards often come dismounted from the machine and not working.

Don't buy iBuyPower, if you -really- don't want to build your own computer, go with NCIX or something at the very least.

And in regards to that guy talking about Dell, DON'T fucking buy a Dell. You're better off using a rock as a computer.

[spartan1337la]

@152Redrum i feel sorry for you...

[152Redrum]

Whgat is this off-brand bullshit, dells are so much better.

[tommygun060]

@152Redrum i hope your joking

[1john1992]

NCIX needs to sell more water cooling stuff.

[aeroaa2]

for me ibuypower its a stupid name it will be better like this-ibuildpower

[gameyogo]

do you play minecraft?

[paugaringanao]

amazing. :D

[cristian333fx]

awesome

[maxfree51]

Is iBUYPOWER Erebus good should i get it or should i get air cold

[ionizdgrunt2]

@maxfree51 well, liquid cooling, is good, but it takes longer for the heat to get to the radiators to cool that water, whereas a copper heat pipe heatsinks, it tells less time to get to the fins/radiator, but it depends on what you are really looking for

[strider70x7]

I agree they should change the name to I buy junk. Thanks Gabe I'll try ironside computers

[GabeOnTheBass]

Ibuypower gets bad reviews all the time with all the broken computers they ship out. Type in Ibuypower reviews in google, and go through it if you don't believe me. I actually learned of Ironside, the company who built my computer, man can I tell you they did an amazing job!!!! I'm mostly happy that It booted up without any problems. You can check them at IronsideComputers(dot)com

[juggolo]

I can hook up to four rx480 rad in my TH10 case labs case

[Stonedmonkey0065]

Oh god, that is sexy as fuck. I'm pretty hard, to be completely honest.

[bradaussiebloke]

must be noisy as i couldn't put up with that gaming for 5 mins and ill soon get pissed off

[ZepG]

@bradaussiebloke I'm sure they are quiet fans but even with loud fans unless your playing extreme solitaire your game should overpower the fan noise.

[bavo00]

And the price is???

[44445au]

What is a very good Gaming computer that you reccomend???i play alot of mmo...wow , Team fortress 2 , left 4 dead 1 and 2 etc.... Thanks for replying

[MasterCheese99]

@44445au you could play all those games on just about any decent pc.

[Hokinabru]

digital storm rapes this PoS!

[bananakiller21]

@Hokinabru digital sotrms a ripoff dumass

[IamAnonymous0]

that machine is an absolute monster

[XmortdreadX]

what case is it!

[66Fallout66Man66]

@XmortdreadX custom i bought 1 week ago

[XmortdreadX]

@66Fallout66Man66 so i cant just buy the case alone

[66Fallout66Man66]

@XmortdreadX nope srry man as far as i no thts a negative

[XmortdreadX]

@66Fallout66Man66 fooooooook,i wanted one =\

[66Fallout66Man66]

@XmortdreadX buy an erebus lol they kick ass

[XmortdreadX]

@66Fallout66Man66 waiting for intels LGA 2011, 1366s arent worth it now when a new chipset is coming so soon, and im not buying an 1155 because i also need it as a work computer, but i likely will buy an erbbus if they release one with LGA 2011 at launch

[66Fallout66Man66]

@XmortdreadX i seee ha

[Nefus1988]

Impressive as hell but unfortunetly more developers are dumbing down their games and downgrade the graphics to fit the consoles.

[pointblack1000]

hmm. if this case was out for sale i would´ve been the first buyer ^^

[milad2007halo3]

Is ibuypower . com trustworthy to buy from?

[Kranbone]

If you are considering buying an iBuyPower system you may want to check their support forum and all the problems people have.

[altu892]

How came they dont water cool the video card with that kinda cooling solution? Wtf

[MrMikeydude10]

@altu892 dude at 2:36 he says that they ve watercooled the cards, and if u look carefully u can see there watercooled

[altu892]

@MrMikeydude10 Sorry... my fail, I typed this comment at 5:00

[MrMikeydude10]

@altu892 lol no worries i didnt meen to sound tht harsh anyways :-)

[hejiajun]

so nice to see the cooling system!

Wish students like can afford it

[MCMapperx]

where can I pick one up?

[De3DeMona]

This is INSANE, but i can handle IT :)e

[De3DeMona]

This is INSANE, but i can handle IT :)

[x900lbGorillax]

What GPU's are in there Linus? 570s? 580s? Really curious.

[deathflyer10]

its a very high number:P 1-2-3-4 xD

[xxxdroidmonkeyxxx]

WOW! Whoever buys that better hope the delivery man doesn't drop that Rig! that thing prob. ways 60lbs. and costs over 6 in a half thousand dollars at least. nice vid. dude

[nik6069]

what case is that?

[youngdones]

Does it cost $20,000?

[deathflyer10]

@youngdones it costs maybe 2000-3000 maybe more am not sure..

[feAr636]

@deathflyer10 That right there would cost close to 2000 just in watercooling components...

[BigBensHelp]

wow i want to get a gaming laptop

[barrix182]

Wish the lights were on to see more clearly :)

Great video anyway :) Thats a killer PC omg

[ESP4thaWin]

1:47

COOKIE CUTTER WATER COOLING COMPONENTS

xD

[saleall]

Just another gigantic heavy stupid pc cases.

and tho not necessary with all that radiators at all, the fans just adds up more noise. they should have made a bigger reservoir and less radiator. dual 140mm radiator + 4L Res., would've had a better cooling capacity than this and also far more quieter! 

[KingMordo]

Too many fans, too noisy ! -_-

[T1carus]

wts torch

[PreciseArrow1]

I just bought the core i5 2500k. ITS A FUCKEN BEAST! overclocked to 4GHz with nothing more then a couple buttons

[Luger718A1]

@PreciseArrow1 aim for 4.5 its easy!

[GotenSSJ1]

This system seems a bit pointless since the i7-2600K will beat the any of the 1366 chips :/

[rammstein989]

@GotenSSJ1 Not the X58 Intel 6 Cores they wont

[GotenSSJ1]

Yeah it does, there's a thread on overclock . net comparing the i7-980x at 4.4Ghz to the i7-2600K at 4.4Ghz and the 2600K wins in 95% of the benchmarks. One thing to remember though is that the 2600K can be overclocked another 600mhz if pushed whereas the 980x can't. It's a better CPU for gaming so it only makes sense to use it over any of the 1336 chips since this is a gaming pc.

[elsenciillo]

i still prefer building one myself

[Shas221]

leviathan is better ^^

[jatigre1]

You guys need to bring one of those 20 watts Sony Camcorder lamps. I know... they're too bright, but don't look straight at it during shooting.

[Ltb0b]

nice shirt

[ipullstuffapart]

did linus' voice finally break?

[duguder]

Look at the features and you can get a lot of pc the money but the quality is awful. Mine laptop didn't last more than a year. By then it cost more to fix than a new one.

[Macsimus007]

So ibuypower is making PC's that aren't worthless crap? Looks nice, but I sure as well wouldn't trust that company with the money it would cost to put together a rig like that.

[ice9sydas]

@Macsimus007 only cost you 8K (idk real number) compared to 4-5K

[dacasman]

holly shit :O

[TioSam88]

Linus does a great job at describing the case but its a tad bit dark. there is another vid floating around on youtube with better lighting.

search for this "iBuyPower Erebus Is the Ultimate Overclocking PC - CES 2011 - PCW"

[MegaSwampass]

Yo chode this video is too dark

[Danny123470]

@MegaSwampass

Lol, chode

[ownTer]

Damn...that thing is pretty quiet as well.

[Candyman97]

Hey Linus the only reason I am saying this is because I have been researching LED lights. They have some real nice ones out there that are portable and don't cost an arm and a leg, and at 5600k you wouldn't look all orange, and we would have been able to see that beautiful machine you were trying to show us. You know that could be a subject for one of your next videos, just a thought. Oh and the cool thing with LED lights, is that some can be powered with AAA batteries. Cool aye.

[spurrell]

3 way sli. pretty sexy.

[v8superstars]

@haz697

I know what a bunch of wankers... as if you could change the lighting in a suite that isn't yours. they need to be taught respect.

[chessinli]

what is that case?

[TioSam88]

@chessinli

looks like a custom iBUYPOWER exclusive case. Its massive right!

[zver711]

Did you make your boyfriend an honorary cameraman?

Seriously though, nice presentation, I usually prefer putting stuff together myself but this looks solid. Quiet, yet so many fans.

[haz697]

Everyone saying "its too dark" or "cant see shit" please shut the fuck up, Linus puts 110% into the videos and even idiot proves what he is saying so you dont need to see in this video, i aint trying to ass kiss here just show some respect.

[lol10105]

@haz697 its kiss ass xD

[indigomuffin13]

i think the greatest light there is the case...

[colony665]

i wanna know how long it tok them to build that thing xD

[brettman78]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay tooo dark

[drKlitzman]

Lookin classy linus

[Flashlabs]

What you were describing sounds great, too bad I can't see it

[bflip12]

cant even see it ;|

[alexbarrow957]

I want it!!...

[50LightSabersInAPack]

Hmm... liquid cooled Metal... arghrghrgh (Home Simpson style)

[pn3r]

It can actually see... my ass...........

[JayEff97]

When this thing leaks, not only the whole computer is flooded but also the peripherals, cables, monitor, and the surroundings will also be wet. Unless the case is water proof, which if it leaks you'll have an aquarium.

[Tactic11]

So basically this a PC case you buy to wow people rather than use it for actual performance. The amount of radiators and everything is overkill, you probably couldn't even get the overclocks to a stable point with this, nor would you want to.

[AMVDawg]

why not just use a radiator from a truck?

[babydash123]

@AMVDawg hahaha 

[m4rtiN95]

i cool my pc with cat pee...meow

[killerdavidify]

I think it would ne really bad if something leaked:D

[FELIX0123]

just stick your pc in a freezer and it do the job, who needs liquid cooling.

[Splooshiba]

i wish i had money

[maples78]

flash light maybe? we cant see anything inside =(

[danny22311]

@shaolindreams yes lad

[freestyle0892]

"water" cool your pc with orange juice? I don't think that can be said xD

[UnityBeing313]

Hey Linus, do a review on my system: Reactor X by Hardcore computer ... xD

[yogman10]

I like Cyberpower pc!

[thekingzz1975]

what video cards is in the case ?

[DjAndrewFlow]

what is the name of the case?

[sgtm1775]

@DjAndrewFlow Erebus. He said it at the beginning of the video.

[julko6070]

it would be great if I COULD SEE A THING

[jackorobot]

Makeshift cameraman??? That sounds wrong...

[ComputerProducts]

3 People Don't Know What Linus is Talking About!

[rymann2k10]

Aaahh I hate you so much for having the best job in this damn planet ! xD

[JamieA242]

linus your such a whore ----- you have 4 cameramen ("the cameraman" , the asian woman, crazy russian, and the "makeshift cameraman" in this video).

what a pimp

[CruelQuertos]

darkness

[Dean129012]

All the radiators and it's not even cooling a the GPUS

[qazino456]

@Dean129012 it is lol...

[alex801848]

Linus looks so formal!

[Amanntube]

wonder what that thing will run I bet its 5-7 grand

[gainpro]

ah, so the cameraman is an x-men!

[OGRMaster]

Is manufacturer includes EARPLUGS? This is gotta be loud.

[vinci1995mij]

What is this case?

[ahpek26]

Too dark, can't see shit.

[Misiek690]

@ahpek26 Probably there wasn't any shit in this computer so you wouldn't see it with good light. :]

[Misiek690]

@ahpek26 Probably there wasn't any shit in this computer so you wouldn't see it even with good light. :]

[delonholmes92]

Erebus is the greek god of darkness and shawdow O_O

[TEAMCANADAPC]

haha my comment

[HLM190586]

great explanation

[Ambrew11]

@ 0:00 THE CAMERA MAN SPEAKS!

[exer45]

@Ambrew11 its not him.. lol

[ale1ale3]

Can you use liquid nitrogen in a water cooling system, because it would be very neat :D

[merts487]

Hey, Linus! next time you a video like this, make more effort and put some lighting. Don't be lazy!

[MadMadsGamer]

@merts487 How would you expect him to put in lights for a video, shot at a suite he doesnt own?

[ElSiipo]

@MadMadsGamer what about flash/lights on the camera? isn't that quite common?

[MadMadsGamer]

@ElSiipo apparently not for Linus

[Luger718A1]

@MadMadsGamer camera light?

[EpicPCnerd]

@merts487 hes at a display. They are not going to let him put lights up everywhere just to make a video.

[Nitro090995]

@merts487

Although I agree with you, it isn't his fault.

In this case, he had no way to control the lighting.

[Nitro090995]

@merts487

Although I agree with you, it isn't his fault.

In this case, he had no way to control the lighting.

[krazykamal23]

@merts487 did u not realise he may not me able to he is in a show room....... knob..

[kaziwill]

@merts487 he's in a suit deedeedee

[RoyalPCmods]

right down and dirty, i like they way you think linus ;)

[Dantakurasaki]

ok this has me wondering i bought all my watercooling components from the Rad to the pump all the way to the CPU block from EK are they as good as koolance

[Purepromedia]

@Dantakurasaki Koolance used to be meh, now there stepping up. I have all EK blocks on my system though.

[WildFire187]

It's too bad IBuyPower has horribly shitty quality, technical support, prices and marketing.

[BOOMbarash5000]

Until the power supply will be watercooled, I will not be impressed at all!

[TheMPTheaterOfficial]

you cant even hear the thing the more fans u have the better cool more and u can run them at a lower speed

[dudedxrox]

PC Watercooling system filled with caramel, not as good as chocolate filled with caramel.

[MrEasternelement]

hey i have an idea ,lets watercool our pc's with honey? ..who's with me?

[jacobmcr858]

What case is this? Something custom directly from iBuyPower?

[kiashadowwave]

@jacobmcr858 yes, they designed it specific for this build

[jacobmcr858]

@kiashadowwave OMG, that's awesome!

[Omellykim]

must weigh a ton 

[TheNiceguy1212]

When are those fan-less fans going to be available for computers?

Like the dyson one :)

[kodakZX1]

All this for surfing the internet.

[PCTechTalks]

that case is ridiculous. i want it :P

[sheerfe4rstudios]

toe to toe with alienware, definatly a competitor

[IHunger4Battle1]

@sheerfe4rstudios lmao @ alienware. Alienware is crap. It's just an over-exaggerated Dell. Build your own or buy a custom system from C Dub Computers (myself), IBuyPower, Cyberpower PC, etc. Save your money since Alienware will run you at least $500 more than what the hardware actually costs.

[n00bcakey]

@IHunger4Battle1 Since i just bought a alienware for 549$, does that mean that i essentially paid something for nothing?

[milodaman2]

Too bad this is not at all what it will look like when you order it. If you take off the side panel your warranty goes void.

[sheerfe4rstudios]

@milodaman2 what if I put it back on?

[TioSam88]

@milodaman2

no it doesn't
