In gaming, it literally provides between 2 and 5 fps boost. I was planning to get the 14900 initially but after researching, I couldn't justify that much extra for 2-5 fps boost.

Theres a deal for these specs on newegg 2200 after tax. I just ordered it but now I'm a bit nervous because for some reason the 14700 version doesn't have an AIO but a cheap 30$ air cooler... Hope it won't throttle, but I am so stoked to play Grayzone Warfare at 100ish fps. They have a Ryzen 7700x version for the same price that does come with the AIO.
@dbd6393 That’s a really good price for all of this! Just shows how quickly PC parts come down in price. I would be concerned about a $30 air cooler on any 14th gen processor to be honest.

I would buy this build entirely except Lian li if my two personalities aren’t colliding, humble and let it rip for your first pc are having a clash in my head.
I got this mobo with Lian Li fans and dominator ram. Since i need to use armoury crate for rgb the corsair ram doesnt sync. I should have gone msi for mono. However i was also between strix 4080 super or 4090 fe 1600$. I went with the 4090 fe even though it does look a little plain
Beautiful! quick question though. For cpu contact frames does it matter if the manufacturer says its for 12th gen when it’s LGA1700? I’m assuming it should also be compatible with 14th and 13th gen cpus, right?
I like the build, myself I’m just unwilling to spend that much even if you found all that at a great deal. I’m ok being behind the curve.

I am going to be doing a build with this same MOBO but with a 14900K and 32GB of Corsair Titanium 6000 CL30. Did you have any issues with this board? I am also going to be building in the NV5 how is the airflow and temps? I will be using my 3090 Ti from my current build as well. I will use the A1000G MSI PSU.
I went with the 14700K because the difference in gaming, which is mainly what I use this PC for, is literally 2 - 4 FPS but the price difference was much more significant. That said, I'm not having any trouble with the board so far. It's only been about 2 weeks, but it's been rock solid to this point. The case is absolutely beautiful to look at and a breeze to build in. As for temps, while gaming my CPU averages between 60-75and I have yet to see the GPU go over 60. One thing I'll mention as to the RGB on the case PSU cover... there is an internal RGB controller that you can use and control the RGB with the buttons on the case. I wanted to control the RGB with the PC so I could get a matching theme whatever color I was in the mood for. So I connected the 3 pin ARGB connector from the case to an ARGB spot on the MOBO. Since I did this, the controls on the case do nothing which is good with me as I just set the colors in Armory Crate. Thanks for the view and comment. Good luck on your build. You're gonna love it.
@@averageenthusiast4160 I am getting the NV5 bundle with the 5 fans and the Glacier One 360 D30 AIO. Kind of want to stick with the same aesthetic and make use of the RGB controller. Do you think the thermalright contact frame actually made a difference? Have you tried 4 sticks of RAM at all?
I do believe the contact frame helped. I had a 12900K before this (gave that rig to my son) and it stayed consistently warmer than this. No contact frame on that machine. I have not tried 4 sticks of RAM. Would definitely like to, but mainly for aesthetic purposes. Haven’t had a need for more RAM at this point. And spending that kind of money SOLELY for looks is kind of crazy. Maybe if I ever make any money off this UA-cam stuff I’ll be able to justify it! lol

I actually don't have any issues with iCue, it runs really well for me. I went with the iCue Link equipment to minimize the amount of cables needing to be organized. All installs very easily and iCue makes it very easy to manage everything. I have heard of numerous other people having trouble with it though. In my last PC I went all Lian-Li. Galahad 360 AIO and Infinity Fans with the Strimer cables... beautiful... but Lian Li L Connect software was atrocious in my opinion.

@@Yxzzzzz0912don’t get wrapped up in specs and what’s new etc. Evaluate what your main goal for the PC is and then determine if your current PC can or can’t do it. If it can’t, then evaluate the cost of the build you want vs the actual gains you will get if you do it. A lot of people get wrapped up in specs and spend thousands of dollars to gain an additional 6fps in their favorite game. Either way, good luck my friend.
@krislambert6625 Great question! In this case, no. The 14700K has 20 PCIe lanes. So the GPU can use it's full 16 lanes and the NVMe can use the other 4.
@@averageenthusiast4160 ahhh I see It's just that I built a new pc a few months ago and it was my first time installing a nvme and lots of talk about it cutting the GPU to 8x if installed into that too slot so to be on the safe side I installed it in the second slot. I have the 13700k so it would of been ok too?
The 13700K also has 20 PCIe lanes so you would have been fine installing it there. But check your motherboard... on mine, all of my NVMe slots are PCIe Gen 4 with two of them running straight to the CPU and the other two running through the chipset. Just be sure that the one you are using is running straight to the CPU and not through the chipset.

@manualbinagorta4804 When I’m gaming it usually stays around 60-65C. I’ve never used the 170… but it’s bigger so in theory it “should” be better?

@xLaoStyle No. I couldn’t get it to sync with iCue at all even though iCue sees the motherboard and the GPU. iCue has actually been extremely terrible lately. Honestly kind of regretting the iCue build considering the cost and how badly the software is performing for me. I am using ASUS Armory Crate software to control the case RGB and just set the colors to match the best as possible. Armory Crate has been rock solid. Thanks for the view and comment!

Im running a I7 12700KF with a aero 4080 and ddr4 3200MHz. In cod benchmark with competitive setttings i get 250fps. Do you think upgrading motherboard with ddr5 6600mhz and i7 14700k would increases that number? Great vid bro
@Jibletz I wouldn't think so. Running at 1440p your GPU should already be being utilized at 100% not relying on the CPU and RAM for much. If you were running at 1080p, the CPU would likely be used more because that's not taxing the GPU enough. If you want to give me your settings I can put them in my system and run through a benchmark for you.
@averageenthusiast4160 I did think my GPU would be utilised at 100% on 1440p but I thought I could squeeze out some more performance with them extra parts. I just don't want to buy it and gain not a lot from it. Mate you would be a legend if you could do that for me! I follow my cod setting from a guy on UA-cam called Software and hardware solutions. I use his setting on Fidelityfxcas with everything on low. I will send a link to the video. Thanks again for the help mate.
@Zohakuu Motherboards support a certain "generation" of processors. For instance, the motherboard I'm using here supports processors of the LGA1700 family.

@Unk9095 I don't use the PC only for gaming. I do music production and photo/video editing as well. Ryzen platform is phenomenal value for gaming... but when doing other things such as photo/video editing etc, Intel always performs better. When gaming, my bottleneck in all games that I've played so far, is 100% GPU. This is what you want. You don't want the CPU bottlenecking so you can't use 100% of your GPU. For what I use the PC for, these two pair perfectly.
One question after you install that cpu anti bend buckle did you have to add extra thermal paste before installing the h150i or it’s ok to just install with the paste that comes from the factory
@@averageenthusiast4160thank you for your reply. What is your strategy for reapplying the thermal paste? I mean how much. I see some people suggesting different patterns to get the right amount/distribution
@FactOverFear. For LGA 1700 CPUs I do an X from just inside the four corners because it’s more rectangle than AM4 or AM5. For AM4/5, I would just do a line down the middle.
@cuongtang9539 I went Intel because I do more with the PC than just gaming. I am an audio engineer and use the PC for recording/mixing/mastering as well as for editing videos. Had this PC been solely for gaming, I sure would have gone AMD… for the MOBO and CPU at least.
@mashrifgaming2351 Total cost would be anywhere from $2,600 - $3,000 depending on any sales you might find. I don’t play Valorant, but I’ve run tests in other builds I’ve done to sell and based on the FPS I would get in those cheaper builds, I would have to think this would get well over 700 in max settings. Valorant is not a very resource hungry game.
@alexharshman7025 People like different things. I’ve seen some builds with more lighting than the Vegas strip and then I’ve seen completely blacked out builds. Just all a matter of what you like. Thanks for the comment!
@@UnitedStatesOfAmerica-e7fnot true at all as somebody who owns intel and AMD based Pc’s. AMD cpu’s/GPU’s are just as plug and play as any intel CPU or Nvidia GPU now
This graphics card is really heavy and I'm surprised Asus didn't add a bracket for it. If it bends and breaks, there is no longer any warranty. Garbage company
@spawn9989 it is a very heavy card. Thankfully, the NV5 case comes with an included GPU bracket to provide support. It is kind of a sham that ASUS don’t include a proper support other than the small support/screw driver they typically include.
@@averageenthusiast4160 They do it on purpose. There are other companies that will offer a bracket with the GPU. I generally avoid the Asus product period. They are no longer the same company as they were in the past.

@@Yxzzzzz0912don’t get wrapped up in specs and what’s new etc. Evaluate what your main goal for the PC is and then determine if your current PC can or can’t do it. If it can’t, then evaluate the cost of the build you want vs the actual gains you will get if you do it. A lot of people get wrapped up in specs and spend thousands of dollars to gain an additional 6fps in their favorite game. Either way, good luck my friend.
@@averageenthusiast4160 thanks man
Cool
@Zethyz Thanks!
hi,lovely build!
does putting that ssd in the top slot not make your gpu run at 8x??
@krislambert6625 Great question! In this case, no. The 14700K has 20 PCIe lanes. So the GPU can use it's full 16 lanes and the NVMe can use the other 4.
@@averageenthusiast4160 ahhh I see
It's just that I built a new pc a few months ago and it was my first time installing a nvme and lots of talk about it cutting the GPU to 8x if installed into that too slot so to be on the safe side I installed it in the second slot.
I have the 13700k so it would of been ok too?
The 13700K also has 20 PCIe lanes so you would have been fine installing it there. But check your motherboard... on mine, all of my NVMe slots are PCIe Gen 4 with two of them running straight to the CPU and the other two running through the chipset. Just be sure that the one you are using is running straight to the CPU and not through the chipset.
what about your monitor/keyboard/mouse and stuff?
@BiscuitKaze Thanks for the view and comment! This video is just about the build of the PC itself. I’m on vacation but I’ll check the model of keyboard mouse and monitor when I get back home. Please consider subscribing to the channel! It helps out a ton and would be greatly appreciated!!
hi, i have a question, How much temperature does your processor i7 14700k have with that cooler? CORSAIR iCUE Link H170i vs i150 , wich is better?
@manualbinagorta4804 When I’m gaming it usually stays around 60-65C. I’ve never used the 170… but it’s bigger so in theory it “should” be better? I would think the difference would be quite negligible though. Please sub to the channel if you haven’t yet. It helps out more than people realize! Thanks and God Bless!
@@averageenthusiast4160 thx so much bro!
@@manualbinagorta4804 Of course. Glad to help.
Does the case RGB sync easily with iCue?, I plan on doing this exact build minus the 4080 super
@xLaoStyle No. I couldn’t get it to sync with iCue at all even though iCue sees the motherboard and the GPU. iCue has actually been extremely terrible lately. Honestly kind of regretting the iCue build considering the cost and how badly the software is performing for me. I am using ASUS Armory Crate software to control the case RGB and just set the colors to match the best as possible. Armory Crate has been rock solid. Thanks for the view and comment!

Im running a I7 12700KF with a aero 4080 and ddr4 3200MHz. In cod benchmark with competitive setttings i get 250fps. Do you think upgrading motherboard with ddr5 6600mhz and i7 14700k would increases that number? Great vid bro
@Jibletz What screen resolution you running at?
@@averageenthusiast4160 I'm running at 1440p.
@Jibletz I wouldn't think so. Running at 1440p your GPU should already be being utilized at 100% not relying on the CPU and RAM for much. If you were running at 1080p, the CPU would likely be used more because that's not taxing the GPU enough. If you want to give me your settings I can put them in my system and run through a benchmark for you.
@averageenthusiast4160 I did think my GPU would be utilised at 100% on 1440p but I thought I could squeeze out some more performance with them extra parts. I just don't want to buy it and gain not a lot from it. Mate you would be a legend if you could do that for me! I follow my cod setting from a guy on UA-cam called Software and hardware solutions. I use his setting on Fidelityfxcas with everything on low. I will send a link to the video. Thanks again for the help mate.

Hi, I have a question, can motherboards support multiple cpus? I have no idea cuz I think some cpus are larger than the other ones thank you so much!
@Zohakuu Motherboards support a certain "generation" of processors. For instance, the motherboard I'm using here supports processors of the LGA1700 family. So Any Intel processor that is LGA1700 series will work in this board. Hope that helps. Please consider subscribing to the channel for me. It help out more than you know. Thanks! God Bless!

how much was this build
Why using I7 with 4080 super? i used 4070 with Ryzen 9 5900x
@Unk9095 I don't understand the question. What are you saying?
@@averageenthusiast4160 You could get Ryzen 9 5900x for 300$ in best buy on a sale
@@averageenthusiast4160 Because 4080 super is overkill for i7
@Unk9095 I don't use the PC only for gaming. I do music production and photo/video editing as well. Ryzen platform is phenomenal value for gaming... but when doing other things such as photo/video editing etc, Intel always performs better. When gaming, my bottleneck in all games that I've played so far, is 100% GPU. This is what you want. You don't want the CPU bottlenecking so you can't use 100% of your GPU. For what I use the PC for, these two pair perfectly.
@@averageenthusiast4160 What about I9
One question after you install that cpu anti bend buckle did you have to add extra thermal paste before installing the h150i or it’s ok to just install with the paste that comes from the factory
@FactsOverFear. You “can” use the pre-applied paste… but I cleaned it off and used a different one.
@@averageenthusiast4160thank you for your reply. What is your strategy for reapplying the thermal paste? I mean how much. I see some people suggesting different patterns to get the right amount/distribution
@FactOverFear. For LGA 1700 CPUs I do an X from just inside the four corners because it’s more rectangle than AM4 or AM5. For AM4/5, I would just do a line down the middle.
Waiting for the streams
@atom1cx275 What streams you talking about?
why didnt you use AMD cpu ? just out of curiosness
@cuongtang9539 I went Intel because I do more with the PC than just gaming. I am an audio engineer and use the PC for recording/mixing/mastering as well as for editing videos. Had this PC been solely for gaming, I sure would have gone AMD… for the MOBO and CPU at least.
@@averageenthusiast4160 woudlnt a 7950x be better ?
how much it cost ?
total
and how much fps avg
in valorant
@mashrifgaming2351 Total cost would be anywhere from $2,600 - $3,000 depending on any sales you might find. I don’t play Valorant, but I’ve run tests in other builds I’ve done to sell and based on the FPS I would get in those cheaper builds, I would have to think this would get well over 700 in max settings. Valorant is not a very resource hungry game.
thx
@@averageenthusiast4160
Total expenditure?
@GringoLocoH Total cost would be anywhere from $2,600 - $3,000 depending on any sales you might find.

All of that how much money?
@v65vv $2,600 - $3,000 depending on any sales you may find.
quite alot
I see a lot of computers now with a bunch of unnecessary rainbow lights, I dont get it.
@alexharshman7025 People like different things. I’ve seen some builds with more lighting than the Vegas strip and then I’ve seen completely blacked out builds. Just all a matter of what you like. Thanks for the comment!
why didnt you go 7800x3d? nice build otherwise
AMD has having some problems like stability,etc and intel is the better choice
i also have 14700K + rtx 4080 gamerock. those icue fans look dope, they are very expensive tho in my country 3x3+1 $405.-
@nivea878 I do things other than strictly gaming… so the 14700K with the extra cores was necessary for me. Can’t go wrong with x3d either though.
@nivea878 Thanks. The iCue fans are stupid expensive for fans but I really wanted the install with fewer cables.
@@UnitedStatesOfAmerica-e7fnot true at all as somebody who owns intel and AMD based Pc’s. AMD cpu’s/GPU’s are just as plug and play as any intel CPU or Nvidia GPU now
This graphics card is really heavy and I'm surprised Asus didn't add a bracket for it. If it bends and breaks, there is no longer any warranty. Garbage company
@spawn9989 it is a very heavy card. Thankfully, the NV5 case comes with an included GPU bracket to provide support. It is kind of a sham that ASUS don’t include a proper support other than the small support/screw driver they typically include.
@@averageenthusiast4160 They do it on purpose. There are other companies that will offer a bracket with the GPU. I generally avoid the Asus product period. They are no longer the same company as they were in the past.
