Ive been seeing all or mostly white builds as of late. They look amazing. I definitely hope the market stabilizes this year. I'd love to build an all white micro ATX PC.
@@diaman_d What do you mean, "fell for the marketing"? Because I appreciate the aesthetics of an all white build, and want to build one myself? I mean isn't that the point of these channels? To show all these different options so we can also make informed choices?
@@chadbizeau5997 what i mean is , would you have gone out to buy this without having seen it first, because you wanted such a build before being shown? now all of a sudden many want this kind of thing, it was the same with rgb stuff, no? I think it's not very appealing, gonna take more time to keep it clean than anything else.
I just finished my wife’s first build, we went with a similar white theme using the thermaltake s100. We did the R5 5600g Paul recommends since we couldn’t find a GPU. Couldn’t be more happier seeing it fire up for the first! Cheers all you wonderful PC people!
13:50 - I've been watching a lot of tech channels build PCs for a few years now, but I think this is the FIRST TIME I've seen someone use a thin plastic sheet wrapped around their finger to spread thermal paste on a CPU. I am DEEPLY intrigued and curious to try this method of thermal paste application on my next PC build. Paul, you are a wild one haha.
I keep using it, or nitrile gloves More control on viscose paste, looks better, no pressure differences by using a spatula on tight places & honestly is faster :)
IDK but the fan ordination doesn't seem right. All pulling air in except 1 lower side exhaust? I just completed an all white build in a 011 XL ROG and put my x73 AIO at the top with it's 3 120 LL's being the exhaust and 3 120 LL's on the side and 3 120 LL's on the bottom pulling air through the Lian Li filters which I believe is best for air flow, low noise and low dust.
@@bionicgeekgrrl I believe Nvidia requires that badging for all board partners. I'm not sure there is any flexibility. The AIO leds can probably be flipped though.
Awesome build, Paul! Your wife will surely love it. I wish all the RGB stuff had a standard already, I cringe everytime I see you deal with all that mess, and when I have to do it myself.
It's a gorgeous build and something I wanted to do with my first build. Instead, I went white with grey, using a white Corsair 5000D Airflow case. I love that the Noctua Redux fans compliment the grey accents on the case. I also went with an ASUS motherboard, but the $150 ROG Strix B550-A Gaming board in white and silver. I still love my build but this is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like clean build. For the audio cable where it plugs into mother board I've put black electrical tape around it so you don't see rainbow color. Just put the cut off on the least likely spot to see it. Ketchup mustard look just peeky thru was annoying
I just finished my build in the Mini and I'm blown away at how much I can comfortable fit in that small case. But I think I will be going with the EVO for some extra space for my custom loop.
That's absolutely freakin gorgeous, I did have one thought that may work, could you use 24 pin CPU cable combs on the 3 x GPU cables to have One comb to rule them all?
Do an Easter themed RGB setup in spring pastels that slowly rotate though the palette…with a Spring Chick that ‘pops up’ every now and again by changing a random fan all yellow for 3-5 seconds before hiding again.
What an absolute beauty, I'll keep working hard, saving money, and selling skin care products, to be able to purchase one PC like this one day. Latam won't stop me from building my dreamed gaming pc, I'll do it! Even if it takes me 70 years more to afford it. Thanks for the awesome builds Paul! They are always a joy to see
Yeah, I had the same type of issue with my CPU mounting hardware, ( Noctua ). You have to rotate the fan 180 degrees or get different mounting hardware if you want to do the "standard" install with the fan exhausting towards the rear of the case. It's a PITA but that's the price you pay sometimes when you adopt a brand new hardware setup.
always. One simply does not blow hot air into the case. They all know it but never abide by their own advices. It's showing amateurism and puts them in the pure marketing department. Like AMD first saying you need 8GB for gaming but when it suits them they auickly change their stories and now customers suddenly should be happy with only 4GB vram. They are all marketeers full of lies.
Yeah I agree, or at least I think he should have mounted the radiator at the bottom of the case and make that an exhaust, but it would prob look funny with the AIO tubes like that
I love white builds. Both my wife and I have white builds that we love. But this build was absolutely Gorgeous!! I can't wait to see both desktops up and running side by side. When are you going to build your daughter a white/pink build?
Looks fantastic. Question: are you concerned about the air flow for the AIO being that the hoses are below the the pump or is that not an issue with this AIO?
doesn't matter because the air bubbles are going to collect in the end of the radiator (highest point, which is also as far away from the pump as possible)
He installed it in the best orientation. Any air in the system will collect at the highest point which is the top of the radiator. If you installed the hoses at the top you could get 'glurbling' sounds.
@@curtisbme he installed it the only way it’s going to fit. Flip the case to the normal setup and the hoses are going to end up on top. It’s not as big of a deal as you think it is.
The airflow definitely needs a rework. I would set the single exhaust as intake as well and the top 3 ones as the main and only exhaust, so this way you got fresh air coming in from bottom and side and all generated heat exhausting from the top
The gpu power cables wrapping up and sitting between the fans of the top of the case and gpu just kills me. But looking at it as a whole, it looks slick!
I have a LianLi White RGB MESH LAN COOL II with nine Antec RGB fans. No water. Such nice cases and yes, these new fans only run at 600 RPM. Sweet machine. Although, after I finished mine and when I look at now, one year later, I NEVER want to take it apart. Just because it was such a PITA to do.
Can't wait to see Lian Li do its magic on the O11 XL EVO edition. I'm guessing the limited pcie adapter cable length is what is stopping this large tower case from being updated together with the standard O11.
Basically because he did not pay for this build. He got components sent from brands and the theme was “white”. So he needs to use the white asus clc. This will be his “wife’s computer” for now but likely he doesn’t truly own these components nor have the disposable income to actually purchase anything extra than what is planned. So why would he spend extra money on water cooling? He doesn’t actually care about this computer in terms of thinking about it practically that way. Liek an ordinary person would meticulously plan a pc. It’s basically a proof of concept for a “build” video. Him and bitwit Kyle love to do this same with “pc centric” and LTT. I think asus just reaches out to whichever UA-camrs they want and tells them they want to market the white stuff and are gonna send white components. The priority is showing off the white cooler. As you can see none of the thought process is truly in reality, it’s a fabricated presentation. No point in taking this seriously.
I love the new Evo case and your white build is l👀king super clean. I am a huge fan of the white light rather then the RGB, especially in a white build. It gives an Antarctic white ice vibe as the ice there tends to slightly color shift as you have going on in this sweet build. Thanks for blessing my eyes with your Antarctic clean ice build Paul. 🤜💥🤛
Clever how you hid the bottom fan cables. Looks great. The QL120 fans look nice, however the led lighting isn’t defused well and the green led tends to die quickly and you up with pinkish purple colour on that node. Considering the cost it’s not great. I’d be interested in your/your wife’s experience after long term use.
Looks fantastic; according to Steve and Jay, the pump of the radiator is supposed to be below the radiator should be 2 inches, and this build had the pump above, just a tough.
I was waiting on when you would flip the bottom fans to exhaust. Now i will wait till you test the airflow setup in the follow up. It will be really interesting if this setup will work.
WOW ! Fantastic ! Incredible ! So happy to see you smiling and doing a POSITIVE uplifting video !!! Bravo !!! Paul, in my humble opinion since I have been your faithful follower since the beginning, you will get A LOT MORE views and subscription by happy, smiling, positive UA-cam videos instead the doom and gloom videos. Thank for all the great teaching you give us !!! With HUGE gratitude for ALL you do 👍👌✌👏🙏
I've had nothing but headaches with the ASUS plug-in for the Corsair iCue software on a build. Despite several updates, the model of the video card and motherboard never showed up in iCue, just like your system. Landed up disabling the plug-in for iCue and using Armory Crate (which includes Aura Creator) to control the Strix B550-F motherboard, RAM (TridentZ RGB), and ROG Strix video card.
Fantastic work! Your best cable management to date, your wife is very lucky to get her hands on this PC. Lastly, that PSU has to be the best looking PSU I've seen, too bad it didn't fit the aesthetic of the build and had to be hidden.
Can anyone help me. I had an old R9 380 in my PC right now. With the graphics card issue, can I still use it with a new rysen cpu? Most likely the 5700g. Or should I just use the APU only?
paul, dont use aura creator unless you intend to create your own unique lighting effects, just get armory crate which from that you can download drivers and see system info and of course mess with the lighting a lot. deffiently one of the best lighting softwares I've ever used.
Looks amazing, I do love a white build done right and these parts seem to match together very well. I'm torn about the GPU power cables wrapping over the top of the fan like that. I wish there was a better way to route that but its difficult to think of how.
Loving all these UA-cam videos on the case I pre-ordered in December, but will be waiting until Jan 29th or later. So happy to see all these UA-camrs with the case already.
Only setting I'd look for in RGB software would be the OFF button. At the very least, I'd be looking to turn the intensity way down. Although, with an all white build, if I had to have LEDs, I'd have to try out what UV looks like.
I really like this setup, will never be able to afford something like this but sure enjoy watching it come together. Cheers Paul ps love your humour and personality a comforting watch with no hint of being up yourself, keep it up.
7:26 this is the exact same reason why i went with the white strix z690 instead of the maximus z690 to go with my i7-12700k. i love this build tho i hope your wife does too!
OMG Paul that's one awesome build. One of your best so far I think. Thanks Kyle for the GPU awesome Guy. Paul just tell him you lost it or something so you can keep it. Tell him Lyle took it hahaha. Awesome job keep those builds coming thanks Paul
Great looking build, I have an all-white build from a few years ago myself. The only thing that looks out of place are the three groups of GPU power cables. It kind of blocks some of the GPU exhaust fans and looks a little odd. I guess the big bend if you route them underneath wouldn't work too well.
Paul, I bought the ASUS ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB CPU Cooler which is supposed to be LGA1200 and LGA1700 compliant. Of course, it did not come with the LGA1700 upgrade mounting kit. My question to you is. Did it work just fine with the LGA1200 bracket it came with? Ther build is awersome I know your wife will love it. Thanks in advance for your answer and keep up the great work you do. v/r Jose
I have Gigabyte Aorus 2070Super and that card really needs a reverse build, that way you can really see the LED's the way it should be.. not hidden. Only too bad thebe quiet dark rock 4 doesn't allow for just the logo to be reversed so i reversed the complete cooler too... not sure if that's smart but it doesn't seem to effect temps.
Hmmmm…I would like to know temps at inlets and outlets…and I would have the radiator fans push outward (shunt cpu heat asap) assuming top and bottom trios push inward. That way 6 fans are blowing in and 4 out. I think that near balance is important with the GPU fans blowing down, which means total air exchange is important. You’d still have a pressurized case. I think it worth looking into mounting the GPU vertically for better heat control. Alternately, have the top fans blow out along w rads, and the back fan blow inward. Then it would be 4 in, 6 out with mostly upward flow. The GPU may suffer w such countercurrent, but maybe not?
I'm put a little effort (very little but more than nothing) removing any RGB from my case since it isn't really my thing (also attracts little fingers). However, this looks really really nice!
I feel like white dimm slots and connectors would really take some white boards to the next level maybe just one flagship board with white pcb and everything whited out
You have 9 fans for intake and 1 fan for exhaust... Why not have the fans on the radiator as exhaust.... that would make 6 fans for intake and 4 fans for exhaust and that will still give it more of a pull configuration and keep the dust out.
So I can’t remember who I saw had done this but I think it would clean up one thing. Your GPU power connectors, use a couple 24 pin CPU cable combs it will make them all run right together nicely. Other that that it’s a VERY clean build good job!
I'm also using a combo of Corsair and Asus RGB products. I just use the Armoury Crate to manage the Asus component lighting. The Aura Creator just seems like a headache. Also the Rgb strip on the front of my O11 xl is plugged to my Mobo RGB header to control it with Armoury Crate as well.
I like the pretty white build, it looks good. The problem I see with it is the reflection it could create on a monitor screen, as seen several times in this video, if the system is adjacent to the screen. So, depending on the placement of the tower, a bright white system may not be in your best interest.
Corsair only supports the standard RGB headers and built in lighting on Asus motherboards, they have essentially said don't hold your breath for ARGB support last I saw
We've got 2 feet of snow but this build is the COLDEST thing I've seen all day.
Not as cold as my ex's heart.
@@tristan5892 you have me now
Its never cold when it snows since clouds trap heat in, it's the clear winter skies that are cold.

Excellent build, Paul. While others may have made a white builder earlier, yours was well worth waiting for. Again, really nice job.
This looks amazing, but the LED readouts on the MB and the "Geforce RTX" badging on the GPU being upside down trigger me lol
Graphics card manufacturers maybe need to follow the case design here and include the labels as user fittings so they can be flipped.
Yes... Definitely a trigger. Lol I was waiting for Paul to flip over the case afterwards. But he never did.
@@bionicgeekgrrl That actually would be amazing if you could. I'd be 100% all for it.

In 70 years you might finally find a 3090 for a decent price.
The clean white with blue-ish white from the RGB gives it a very space age look. Like looking into the computers on a future space station.
That is a great looking build. Will the AIO pump burn out faster if it is above the radiator with a closed loop?

Loving it!!! Makes me want to sing, 🎶You’re as cold as ice…”🎶. You’re doing the thing, Paul.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Great build as always Paul. Curious why you went with 9 of 10 fans intake? Shouldn't the 3 on the AIO be set to exhaust instead?

That's a beautiful build. I love how you you able to utilize the modularity of the case to hide fan cables. Looks so slick
Great looking build, I have an all-white build from a few years ago myself. The only thing that looks out of place are the three groups of GPU power cables. It kind of blocks some of the GPU exhaust fans and looks a little odd. I guess the big bend if you route them underneath wouldn't work too well.
I like that the power supply is hidden and how clean it makes it looks!
this build goes crazy.... looks insane with all the LEDs on!! you did a good job man
Great way to start of 2022 Paul!!!!
Great job with the build, love the all white look!
This is from a dream!!! So cool so clean!!!!
Paul, I bought the ASUS ROG Strix LC II 360 ARGB CPU Cooler which is supposed to be LGA1200 and LGA1700 compliant. Of course, it did not come with the LGA1700 upgrade mounting kit. My question to you is. Did it work just fine with the LGA1200 bracket it came with? Ther build is awersome I know your wife will love it. Thanks in advance for your answer and keep up the great work you do. v/r Jose
I have Gigabyte Aorus 2070Super and that card really needs a reverse build, that way you can really see the LED's the way it should be.. not hidden.
Only too bad thebe quiet dark rock 4 doesn't allow for just the logo to be reversed so i reversed the complete cooler too... not sure if that's smart but it doesn't seem to effect temps.
Great build like TRULY!! however the Radiator orientation is kinda funny is the pump going to make noises?
This build is really positive Paul. It looks like only one fan is exhausted. Love it!! Looking forward to your wife's opinion on this.
I absolutely love white PC builds! Hoping to build something like that one day.
Great build, Paul!
Hmmmm…I would like to know temps at inlets and outlets…and I would have the radiator fans push outward (shunt cpu heat asap) assuming top and bottom trios push inward. That way 6 fans are blowing in and 4 out. I think that near balance is important with the GPU fans blowing down, which means total air exchange is important. You’d still have a pressurized case. I think it worth looking into mounting the GPU vertically for better heat control.
Alternately, have the top fans blow out along w rads, and the back fan blow inward. Then it would be 4 in, 6 out with mostly upward flow. The GPU may suffer w such countercurrent, but maybe not?
9 intake fans with 1 exhaust fan :) good stuff.. im guessing those intakes have dust filters
nice build and your studio/office/background is looking really sharp..
Very nice! Looks amazing... Corsair RGB fans are super bright and in that white case, I can only imagine the "brightness goodness"!
I'm put a little effort (very little but more than nothing) removing any RGB from my case since it isn't really my thing (also attracts little fingers). However, this looks really really nice!
I feel like white dimm slots and connectors would really take some white boards to the next level maybe just one flagship board with white pcb and everything whited out
Great build Paul, snowflake looks nice
You have 9 fans for intake and 1 fan for exhaust... Why not have the fans on the radiator as exhaust.... that would make 6 fans for intake and 4 fans for exhaust and that will still give it more of a pull configuration and keep the dust out.
very nicely done Paul.
I just love a white build....watching this was so satisfying
So I can’t remember who I saw had done this but I think it would clean up one thing. Your GPU power connectors, use a couple 24 pin CPU cable combs it will make them all run right together nicely. Other that that it’s a VERY clean build good job!
I'm also using a combo of Corsair and Asus RGB products. I just use the Armoury Crate to manage the Asus component lighting. The Aura Creator just seems like a headache. Also the Rgb strip on the front of my O11 xl is plugged to my Mobo RGB header to control it with Armoury Crate as well.
That thermal paste spreader though!!! OP
Plastic wrap on finger ftw ☝️
I like the pretty white build, it looks good. The problem I see with it is the reflection it could create on a monitor screen, as seen several times in this video, if the system is adjacent to the screen. So, depending on the placement of the tower, a bright white system may not be in your best interest.
Corsair only supports the standard RGB headers and built in lighting on Asus motherboards, they have essentially said don't hold your breath for ARGB support last I saw
