The article discusses the author's experience with 3D printing a shroud for a computer fan. He explains that he had to redesign it after realizing that there was a "janky thing" cut into one of its pieces, which was not accounted for in his original design. The author decided to add a buffer room to the shroud to allow for some flexibility when attaching it to the motherboard.

The article also mentions that the 3D printed shroud has improved the airflow around the computer's CPU, allowing the system to run cooler and more efficiently. The author notes that this was achieved through careful design and planning, as well as a willingness to experiment and try new things.

In addition to the technical aspects of 3D printing and fan design, the article touches on the business side of Massdrop, a platform that allows customers to pre-order products and support independent manufacturers. The author mentions that Massdrop has been able to secure deals with various companies and distribute their products directly to customers, which has helped to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

Overall, the article provides a behind-the-scenes look at the process of designing and building a custom computer component, as well as the importance of innovation and experimentation in the field of computer hardware.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthat feeling when a package that you ordered on eBay or whatever finally arrives you tear it open take out the packing material and it's that last part you need to build a machine that you've been waiting forever to build this is my new motherboard for the DIY PF sense router machine and hopefully the one that's going to survive drop a like on the video if you like that feeling as well and drop a dislike if uh you hate seeing me kill Hardware Corsair RMI series power supplies feature premium components for great performance with very low noise check out the link in the video description to learn more be respectful this is a graveyard the graveyard of motherboards so here is everything for the DIY PF sense router including my two dead s1200 KP Intel server boards let's see if third time really is a charm now in the comments under part one of this video there's a lot of people criticizing the choices that I've made in terms of the hardware for this machine with crit criticism number one being lonus why didn't you just buy a cheap oneu machine on eBay and use that with my response being well because that's not a very interesting video me sitting at my computer clicking by and number two with people saying how over kill it is that I'm using a Zeon for a router I know we already had it I didn't I didn't run out and and buy it to make this video now with that said I have bought a couple motherboards now but that is because we are already many hours of 3D printing into creating some custom Hardware in order to make this project work and could we have found something that would fit together better out of the box yes of course we could but that's not fun and we are going to start by testing this motherboard outside of the system to find out if it works at all before we uh introduce some of the variables that might end up killing it so we'll start with CPU installation this CPU known good I actually ran it uh right before I started up this build log in the first place and it was fine Ram very unlikely that's killing our motherboard it's actually on the validated list not to mention that it's Kingston RAM and the last time Kingston produced Ram that killed anything was oh I don't know never now I've got a lot of people saying that it's my cooler and back plate that are killing the board to which I would reply did you even watch like did you even watch the video the entire back plate is covered in electrical tape that is not what happened but for the haters I'm going to go and I'm going to grab a stock heat sink to test the board with first for extra safety I'm going to try a standard desktop power supply next now I don't think the problem is my power supply what I think the problem is is someone that almost nobody in the comments actually picked up on and that is this four pin connector that comes off of the oneu power supply that I plugged into a fan header on the motherboard that I checked with a multimeter later and which appeared to be supplying rather than requiring power no power to my mouse and keyboard why don't we start with different RAM and see how it goes from there now it's always possible when a motherboard dies that it can take other Hardware with it and I really hoping that it didn't kill our Zeon CPU let's try a different CPU so now I've got a 3570k from the CPU pile to try the weird thing is with the the other chip I wasn't getting any beep codes and it was warming up it was actually getting power okay this time it's failing post new plan it's quite possible that even though they're on the same socket uh this motherboard doesn't actually support the 3000 Series processor so I grabbed a 2600 and we're going to take this baby for a spin no power to the peripheral still I'm starting to think we've got a dead board on our hands here I can try a different stick of memory so oh oh hello so she's a little picky on the memory compatibility but we have a post this is good news now let's try our Zeon chip with that RAM and see how that goes I think we may have not only killed our board but also killed our CPU and RAM so we're going to the 2600 and the full height Ram even though that's not really going to work for the final build I'm going to give it a shot first I'm going to try the 3570k to see if our bios update at the very least might have given us more options for newer generation processors to work in this board well that's the end of that chapter now let's try the uh now let's try the original Zeon hey all right the ram works but the CPU is dead which means I can build today and change out the CPU if I decide to do that at all remember zon for ECC support so we're not actually taking advantage of the ECC memory so if I decide to change out the CPU I can do that at another time all right let's let's let's Forge ahead then I'm gon give you guys a little lesson on electronics a piece of plastic shroud over top of a speaker does not affect the functionality as I will prove right now so as you can see just like on the previous two attempts I have only removed the top of the plastic let's go power it on oh what's that oh oh cutting down oh cutting down the speaker doesn't do anything because why would it I could rip the speaker right off and it wouldn't do anything the speaker just wouldn't work huh how about that the number of people educating me about the dangers of a metal back plate fairly High I don't know if you guys know this but uh the manufacturer of this CPU heat sink is also aware of the dangers of metal back plates and the back plate actually had a non-conductive coating on it um so yeah that that was a thing um but just in case I had damaged that non-conductive coating I did there we go we've got CPU contact I did cover it in electricians tape last time around the internet was right I think the back plate heat sink mount did Kill the board because we are now down to well up to three dead boards but not for the reason that they think it did because the back plates anti- conductive coating was not penetrated I think the reason it died was actually from too much mounting pressure but there's good news and we are going ahead with the project because I've discovered that my Z87 n Wi-Fi motherboard happens to be almost identically laid out to the Intel board that we were using before so I've grabbed a different Zeon and we are just going to build a router today damn it no matter what because our gigabit internet upgrade is already done so here we go now for my next trick I'm going to take my test bench and physically move it into the case all right power supply still works very good we are in good shape shape friends we are in good shapee okay there's still one more thing to go wrong actually now I'm not going to use the same PCI e1x Riser that I was using before if I can get away with it because my 16x Riser that I ordered on eBay actually has finally arrived so we should be able to get full 4X performance out of this card assuming that this solution works at all um so now we're going to go almost all the way and boot into the OS and see if our network card is recognized let's pull this back off oh oh I think that was plugged in kind of funny maybe that was the issue all right that was the issue just needed to receip that puppy and I really don't like that this keeps going load optimize default then boot you stop that What's your deal so it actually blue screened even without our network card in there which leads me to believe maybe it's something else my Windows 7 bench Drive could be just kind of flaky right now so let's try my Windows 8 test drive so we're booted into the windows 8 drive so we're going to try our network card again if anyone from Microsoft is watching why the actual if I start typing my password immediately on that screen and I only have a single user account on the machine does it not just log me in there's always like a quarter of a second delay and it misses the first character or two fix that all of our Network ports are showing up it is time to actually install it inside the machine so what I'm doing is I'm actually trying to jam enough wires through this Gap that even if I accidentally press down on this tab while I close it it actually can't open cuz that'll release my memory modules just for doing some some quick testing here so I'm going to put this baby up here right oh we're close I can smell it now this is a cool thing about this case you can actually install your expansion card either way and I think we may be better served by doing it this way this time so if I press on these is it going to move nope it's finally here everything is working which leads us at last to the whole point the thing I wanted to test with this video our custom cooling shroud forour heat sink we need to test two different scenarios number one how does it perform with only these high RPM fans pulling air from the front and blowing it out the back of the chassis towards our aligned CPU heat sink and in order to give this config the best fighting chance we're actually going to try it a couple of different ways because you can see the way the chassis is meant to channel airf flow is in the front SL top a little bit and then out these ventilation holes at the back so we can actually try it both with the whole thing open and with everything around the CPU heat sink itself actually blocked off so that we're getting more air flow through the fins of the heat sink but let's try it completely open first so our idle temps actually look pretty good sitting in the 35 to you know 40° range so for the sake of this video I think we're going to use the uh CPU package temperature here all right let's start a stress test and see what happens to that well 65 still climbing uh so what are our so our hottest core is sitting at around 60° with the package sitting at 63 all right we'll let that reach equilibrium and we'll come back in just a moment okay small update temperatures are still Rising we've reached 70° on the CPU package 71 now okay I think our maximum temps have settled in now per my usual approach I'm taking the highest number that it's recorded So CPU package has spiked as high as an 80° reading a little higher than I'd be comfortable with with that said this system's not going to be under that kind of a load 24/7 but still so we're going to go ahead and we're going to block off the holes that we don't want it using and see if that helps now it's actually kind of hard to tell from looking at these temperatures because they're kind of all over the place but with our blocked off holes you can actually see from the curve that shows all of the cart temperatures that we're getting a little bit more empty space under that 70° Mark right there so I would say yes we did get a few degrees Improvement by using this approach this is kind of a funny story I've got the uh the architect of the fan shroud that we'll be installing for our second test and he was about to explain to me why one of the pieces of the Shroud has like this janky thing cut in it so when I was modeling it originally I forgot that there's is it I think it's this thing yeah yeah this thing is right in the way so oh look it perfectly fits now okay so we actually had to change the motherboard yeah I know so now my all my plans are are wrecked uh all the original measurements like is it significantly different no okay so now that you move that where it belongs this shroud should fit very oh look at how perfect perfect that is it's so perfect and I gave this buffer room here I didn't make it as long as it needs to be cuz it can overlap a little bit your modesty is truly amazing yeah just be careful just supposed to be flex room for it to be able to go in there that fits that's correct okay okay now no I I want to do it I want to do it I want do it all right note that the design still allows these three fans to cool the network card although we did not determine that we needed a shroud for that that little that thing is in the way I didn't model that so it's uh oh well it's supposed to be flush on the top it's not the way I designed it but yeah I mean it it's supposed to be flush I mean it's mostly flush most of the air flow is going to make it to the heat sink I think which is okay because it won't kill the system to have a little bit of air flow over here looks cool doesn't it all right let's close it up and and find out if our Maniac scheme here worked so for those wondering we actually 3D printed this sucker on the ultimaker 2 that we reviewed in the video that you can check out right over here there you have it folks absolutely fantastic by using our 3D printed shroud to direct more air flow towards our passive heat s we were able to drop our CPU temperatures by somewhere in the neighborhood of about 10° meaning that even Under full load I would be extremely comfortable running this system all the time it took a long time for us to get here but our router is finally ready to load up pfSense and deploy in the server room with our new gigabit connection woo oh hi I didn't see you there you know what's great massdrop.com just head over to draw. Linus Tech tips and they'll always well not always okay but whenever we talk about it they're going to have an awesome deal over there right now they've got a DJI Phantom 3 and actually you can pick a variety of different models of the Phantom 3 depending on what you're into but it's not just limited to drones over at Mast drop basically they reach out to the community they go what kind of deals do you guys all want to see and then people go well yeah hold on I'd love to see you know I don't know that cool knife or that amazing keyboard or those headphones and then M drop goes to the manufacturer or the distributor they make sure they're getting authentic products and if they can find enough people who are willing to buy and a manufacturer who wants to sell well the more people buy the lower the price goes It's The more mass the further it drops it all kind of makes sense in sort of a internet logic type of way so again that's draw UPS Linus Tech tips to check out not just that Phantom deal but any of the awesome stuff that they have over on mass drop it's uh definitely a good way to kill some time and kill your wallet and get some great deals while you do it so that's it guys thank you for coming along for the ride if you disliked this video well I think you know what to do but if you liked it click the like button get subscribed to lus Tech tips and maybe even
