What is the issue(s) with Nzxt RGB system? I was highly anti-RGB for my previous builds so my knowledge base is next to 0. This case and other current white parts have me considering a full blown RGB, so I'm taking any input I can! Like the tip for reverse blade fans. Had no clue about that!
@@thecomputersurgeon That's true if you buy the fans separately or if you get their AIO. The ARGB fans that are pre-installed on their cases have standard ARGB connectors. You don't need their hub or software to use them.
Works at 6000 CL30 on XMP. Most XMP profiles will work on AMD except the ones over 6400MHz. But the other timings are often a bit better on EXPO from my understanding. If you've got the choice, then EXPO is better for AMD, but in my case I wanted this specific look so went with the XMP kit
This is awesome, it's one of the best H6 Flow's build that I ever seen on YT, maybe you can help me, I just bought this case and I'm looking forward to do my first build, I'm a filmmaker and I currently use an M1 Max Macbook as first machine for editing and M2 Mac mini for support, but I'm currently looking for a Windows PC for 3D and CAD for some projects, I'm also a gamer and I have never had a custom PC. I got 2500€ or 2100 in £, I did some research looking videos and I ended with this components: CPU - ( same as yours ) Ryzen 7 7800X3D GPU - Zotac 4080 Super Trinity OC 16GB Motherboard - ASUS ROG STRIX B650-A DDR5 Ram - CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL36 Intel XMP SSD - Samsung 980 Pro 1TB PSU - NZXT C1200 PSU AIO - NZXT Kraken 360 2x 140 MM NZXT Rgb FAN 1x 120 MM NZXT Rgb FAN Do you find it a nice build for both gaming and editing or you think that I can change/improve something for this budget? Thank you for your answer and keep it up with these videos! 😁
The 7800X3D does not need a posh motherboard at all - this one was chosen just for the aesthetic alone. A midrange board like the MSI B650 Gaming Plus WiFi (black) or Gigabyte B650 Gaming AX Ice (white) are plenty, given the low power usage. In truth, a 7800X3D will run on really cheap boards just fine as well - there are a couple of AsRock MATX boards that are dang good for the money too
How is it possible that you have so few subscribers? Here's a new one. Amazing video. I really liked your way of explaining, recording and editing. Would you choose this case or the Phanteks NV5 for R7 7800x3D and 4070ti Super? For a white build. Greetings from Spain :3
Gracias! I am hoping my time will come - just need some videos to take off The NV5 looks great I've just never used it myself, so I couldn't comment. They're both awesome so I'd personally just go for whichever is aesthetically your cup of tea Most dual chamber cases like these have similar performance, with some minor variance
@@thecomputersurgeon I also hope you get those times. Because people see a 10-12min video, but in reality it takes hours, between pc setup, testing, recording and editing. Thank you very much for this response as well. I think I will discard the case H6 flow because in my country their fans are more expensive than Phanteks. So I will look at white configurations with Nv5 and Lancool 216 finally :)
Great review. I just built a similar system, but in a Hyte Y40. However, I have a custom build gaming chair and the case sits against it, so having all the fans flat on the side doesn't work. Having them at an angle like this is perfect! I just wish I'd realised the problem earlier.
Hi nice video just a quick question , but idlike to replace my 3 fans on the side should i get Reversed or normal ones ? As in my case i want it to suck air inside my case and then the aio cooler and back cooler will be exhaust Would appreciate hugly if you xan xlear it up 🙏
Great video! I am looking to build a PC with the same motherboard, CPU, and RAM. Did you have any issues with the PC not posting due to RAM? I’ve seen people lower the RAM speed to 5200MHz (even though the RAM is rated for 6000MHz) due to PC not posting or being unstable. Also, did you tweak anything in regard to the PBO (setting a negative curve optimizer on all cores to negative 30) or XMP profile for the RAM? The videos I’ve seen that have me asking questions are a bit older, and I’m not sure if current BIOS updates have fixed issues I’ve seen in regard to AM5 platforms, specifically the 7800X3D. I’m just trying to see if you had to optimize anything in the BIOS or was this just a simple: build the pc, turn it on, enable xmp profile and you’re good to go. I would really appreciate a response since I am looking to build an almost identical build. AM5 has me worried, and I may end up just going with a i7-13700k. However, I’d really like to have a 7800X3D due to it being the “Best Gaming CPU”. Thanks!
Thanks!! AM5 is awesome - don't be worried! I have never had a system on AM5 that failed to POST I always update to the latest BIOS. Your RAM should always POST and it will just run at the base JEDEC speed (normally 4800MHz depending on the kit) until you enable XMP/EXPO. The kit worked flawlessly with no problems at the rated speed. EXPO kits are preferred on AMD but this one did happen to work despite only being XMP certified The CPU is stock with PBO on by default. I leave the tweaking alone because these systems are to sell, so need max stability. Though if it was my own system I'd just put on a - 30 curve optimiser and leave it there. If you get any weird behaviour back it off to - 20 and you'll be golden Hope that helps :)
This sketchy Pci-e adapter should never be used. The debate over the 12VHPWR plugs hasn't ended yet but it's almost save to say that the design is problematic at least. If you want do good for your customers just use the original cables provided with the PSUs/from the manufacturer of the PSU (warranty reasons).
I've used these dozens of times without issue since the 40 series came out, so your milage may vary I guess 🤷 I think the key thing is to ensure it's firmly plugged in. We'd cover any problems under warranty regardless I'm glad there's a new connector because 4 x 8 pin would be troublesome. However I agree 12vHPWR has a lot of room for improvement!
@@thecomputersurgeon Yes, it may vary as always. The reason for melting connectors was at first pointed out to be user error. But some newer findings say it's an issue with the contact surface/spring mechanism on each pin (if angled the contact area gets too small/hot). Afaik some manufacturers have (will) stop producing adapters - that indicates the manufacturer of the GPU might deny warranty and point at the adapter to be responsible...way too complex topic for YT comments.
@@thecomputersurgeon Also when buying a system and planning on using it for more than 2 Years (or warranty period). If tension is involved, I think time could be a negative factor in this, too. All that said it seems that only 4090s draw enough power to make it a problem. They're not changing it on ATX 3.1 for no reason... and no offense, just trying to make you reconsider this :)
Dude, what ... the Thermalright TL-C12 are midrange in terms of quality, the Noctua high end, have different profiles etcetc... TRs fans are a good budget choice and do their job.
7800X3D or 14900k - what would you go for and why?

Could u overclock the RAM with expo, bc the titanium is only XMP certified and I'm struggling if I should buy the ram
I don’t see any corsair ram in white available for amd, it’s all for intel 😢 (US) what can you recommend? I also want white for my build 🥹
I used it with XMP on this system and it was fine, but YMMV
I miss the "Your Mum" jokes in the intro 😂 I shouldn't be so juvenile, but you started it and I'm here for it.
Beautiful build. Great info. Thank you 💖
Oversight on my part, but they'll be back next video 😉
Oh damn im building almost the exact same build but different ram and ran into this video by accident. Nice ass build my dude.

I'm not a fan of the NZXT CAM software, and the cables used are proprietary. Whereas brands like Thermalright use industry standard 3 pin ARGB plugs

Ah I see, thank you!
Edit: I would add that if you mix brands the colours might not be the same
hi :) dose 👌👌👌👌 32GB (2x16) DDR5-6000 CL30 Corsair Dominator Titanium'👌👌👌👌this kit have expo? or can you load it full speed ? at least 6000?
XMP but still works at the rated speed :)
really? u get 6600?

can I get at least 6000mhz with gigabyte aorus x670e pro x? Is it possible?

This connector has now been recalled so you should be able to get your money back before it melts your shit.
Already done!
Which connector?
Like around 20% less footage of your face next time and the review is perfect.

I am making 7800x3d with 4090 strix oc, I keep seeing “anything but Asus motherboards” really need help picking one..

Looks dope! I'm slowly collecting parts to build something simular like this but with arctic freeze 3 as a cpu cooler and radeon 7900 GRE as GPU.

Was thinking of installing these fans into my black H6, love the RGB look and the low cost, any update on how they’ve lasted so far?

nice sorted cable management, is your m.2 on chipset socket or CPU socket ? the PCIE
Did you still have to use some sort of adapter or did the panel close with the 12vhpwr connected natively?
It would work with the Corsair cable. But with the bog standard NVIDIA adaptor it might be too tight
Hi nice video just a quick question , but idlike to replace my 3 fans on the side should i get Reversed or normal ones ? As in my case i want it to suck air inside my case and then the aio cooler and back cooler will be exhaust
Would appreciate hugly if you xan xlear it up 🙏
What you've just described is exactly what this build is - so yes, reverse blade fans for the side so you get intake whilst the fans still look nice
Why are you wearing sunglasses inside?

For the money they are fantastic, and barely audible
it looks like the backplate of your gpu is bend..
Hmm, maybe! Or it could be the camera. I'll grab the PC from storage and check it out :D
what is the name of that adapter for the GPU power 3:38 ?
EZDIY 180 degree 12VHPWR
However, these types of adapter are no longer recommended as there were a few incidents of GPUs being damaged by them
Tasty build
Which case is this sir
