now your gpu wont sag
Yes, but will it run Minesweeper? That's what we all want to know!
too chunky and i like the clean recangle look instead its cleaner.
case and mobo designs seem outdated to me, tiny PWR pins and cables everywhere, shouldn't mobos have a plug on the back and a socket on the case backplate, so the mobo is powered when installed. Personally, I'd like to see modular pc's with the gpu's separate to the mobo , storage and psu I'd mount it on the wall in custom cases, maybe a millennium falcon hiding the mobo, a star cruiser hiding the GPU and some tie fighters containing the psu and storage… all connected with flat cables covered in rgb to look like jet trails
How does the gpu stay cool? why don't they make MOBO's with cpu connections on the rear?
Glad someone can still afford to build a pc😂😂
My pc is in a terrible state, I wish someone would take it apart, diagnose it and put it back together. I took it to two people, I asked them to take all components out and check the wires to the top of the case as the ports are a bit problematic, one guy tidied up the cables and gave it a clean, the other said he re-seated the ram and put it on a bench test for 24 hourrs.
Everything looks great but the fact they don’t separate the screws into different bags is a concern. If you’re not an experienced builder this could leave you in a minefield
I like to use Corsair fans and AIOs so im curious if their Icue eco system will work ok with this case?
It looks like the worlds fanciest box fan.
That is ugly af what the hey
Why is everyone doing builds in this same freakin case today? This is literally the third video in the last three hours I've seen of people doing build to show off this case
For starters one option I think is they could/should just go full vertical and make it like top to bottom (or bottom to top whichever)
And then…something about the power supply I guess
Also probably more rgb
Maybe even more fans? uhh
Having looked at it I feel like the case just looks weird
I think the very general concept could work its very uhh hmmm
Something more rounded or more homogenous maybe
And maybe rearranging or reorienting parts of it
What stat readout software are you using Marcus? Being able to see both DLSS FPS output and without DLSS (Standard) FPS is awesome.
Those Ram sticks were frying, in a normal case they keep under 55C. Keeping ram under 55C is a most for stability.
No VRMs temp?
No Chipset temp?
Not much useful temp info with no synthetic stress benchmarks
waiting for new designs on PC Cases all the time… I like that this is different, and love that they are trying new things to minimize how many fans are needed, but not My taste style wise
Its different, that's for sure. The case. I would not buy one, but its a new take on design. So refreshing after all those fish tank cases the last 10 years.
when it releases, can you do a video on the corsair warthog case? if you could along with a MSI godlike MAX and a liquid suprim 5080?
You can do hotspots on fifty nineties now
that not good
Every single PC builder making the exact same content. 95% of creators in this space are carbon copies of each other, there's only a handful truly original builders on the entire YouTube platform.
No GPU sag bracket and possible bending of the cable are the only reasons I would pass on this cool case
Reminds me of the old Thermaltake Level 2 cases back in the day. Anyone else remember those?? Good to see manufacturers trying something new against the sea of fish tank type cases out there.
Great video 👍
What program you use to show any stats? Like temp fps
