What’s more delicious than a creamy, milky cup of boba tea with the straw poking through the foil top? A creamy, milky cup of boba tea that also keeps your CPU temps down. Adam Patrick Murray and producer Willis Lai are joined in the studio by special guest Peachie Tech for a full desktop PC build. And the build is pretty special too because it’s Patrick’s very first custom loop liquid-cooled PC…complete with boba tea running through the loop. Or at least a simulacrum that makes the reservoir tank look really cool.
The full video lands in at nearly six hours, so clear away your schedule if you want to watch the whole thing. As for the all-white parts, we’re going with an Intel Core i7 14700K, Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Pro X motherboard, Asus TUF GeForce RTX 4070 Ti graphics card, a Solidigm P44 Pro 2TB SSD for storage, a whopping 48GB of Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 7200MT/s RAM, and an MSI MAG A1000G PCIe 5 power supply, all stuffed into an all-white Lian Li 011 case.
But all of that is pretty standard. The star of the show us a collection of custom Corsair iCue parts for the custom loop, including an XD5 RGB Elite reservoir and pump, 360mm radiator, and a bunch of other parts, finished off with some Lian Li reversed-blade RGB UNI fans. This is also the first time we’ve been able to use the all-on-one-cable iCue Link system, so that’ll be fun to check out.
Oh, and of course we can’t forget the most essential specs: the crew is drinking tea from Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea in San Francisco. Adam is drinking brown sugar boba, Peachie has fresh taro, and Willis has mango pomelo sago. The boba in the PC’s coolant reservoir, if you’re wondering, is made of delicious plastic.
