hey guys this is Austin and today we're going to be building myself a brand new gaming PC rig it has been quite a while since I've actually built a system that's going to be for my own personal gaming exploits and well it seems like a good excuse to do another PC build tutorials better hold my fort night skills Dave we've got some pretty high-end hardware and most of that is thanks to Intel we're also enough to sponsor this video so first of all we have the 32 gigabyte obtained module we're actually going to be doing something kind of cool with this a little bit later with our steam drive but we also have this the holy grail of gaming CPUs the core i7 8086 so what separates this from a standard core i7 is what's still going to have that same six core design it's going to be clocked even higher the boost talked on this guy is 5 gigahertz and that's out of the box as a k-series processor we can overclock it even farther although 5 gigahertz is pretty fast for the case I'm using the NZXT H 700 I now this is a very large case it actually does support a ATX motherboards as I almost cut myself with a knife that would have been bad but one of the main reasons why I want to go with this is because this is my news build that I actually want to use for a while and I want to be able to have plenty of expansion and with my set up currently as is at home space really isn't an issue so it should be no problem to be able to fit this guy underneath the desk before we get too far into the build one of the first things I want to do is start swapping out some fans so this case actually does have quite a few it has three 120 millimeter fans up front the problem is is that well they're not RGB of course we need RGB the next up of the build is the motherboard so we are using the asustor primes these 370 a a seuss generally make some pretty solid boards in fact they make some of the best boards period and the top of that we're also trying to unify everything around or a sink weather will actually get everything on board is another story but this should do the job one of the nice things about going with a Z 374 like this is that we're going to be able to support not only our m2 SSD we can also take advantage of octane at the same time so we're going to be using octane and a little bit of a different method than usual typically speaking you would pair this with a standard mechanical hard drive you would run Windows absolutely everything on it and the advantage is that this is going to give you a much much faster response time on things that you're going to be using on a regular basis think about like window your main programs anything that the system sees that you're constantly using it will keep stored in the obtain cache but for this video we're actually gonna be taking advantage of this for a steam library inside this very plain box we have what is well a pretty plain looking hard drive but this my friends is something kind of special this is a full 14 terabyte Toshiba hard drive and not only is this basically the biggest hard drive that you can get your hands on today but this pair with octane means that we're going to have 14 terabytes of some very very fast storage if we really want to go crazy we could have picked up 14 terabytes worth of SSDs but well that's going to be ridiculous it's also going to be really expensive yeah yeah that 14 terabyte hard drive isn't cheap but if $550 plus the cost of an octane module which is really reasonably priced we're going to be getting a lot of the speed but in a much much simpler and much less expensive package install a top 10 memory is going to be very straightforward we just need to line it up and then if we use a single screw we can hold into place the only thing you need to keep in mind is whether or not your motherboard actually does support obtain memory what are you doing okay in addition to being useful when you're building your own PC octane is available in pre-built systems such as desktops and laptops some of which I've already taken a look at very recently for the rest of our system storage we're going to be using a samsung 970 pro SSD now this is not going to be strictly necessary technically we could run everything off of the 14 terabyte octane setup but well what's not to like about a little bit of extra overkill in our lives now comes the sad part cutting the factory seal on one of the very few 8086 --is that are left in the wild so it's going to a good place very very gentle with this so with the 8086 on board it's just a matter of lining it up with our processor not using the super cool assist tool and we should be good to go we also have some memory by the way Jason and Karis so we've got 16 gigs of G skull sniper X which should give us plenty of speed especially considering that this is actually rated up to thirty four hundred megahertz progress so we have our motherboard inside the system we also do have our cooler so because we do have such a high end CPU we do you opt for a 240 millimeter all-in-one cooler this is going to be the courser h100 I Pro with extra RGB because Ken thought RGB would be a good idea for the system on top of that we also do have our 14 terabyte hard drive installed it's going to be kind of tucked around back so it's gonna be right here but the important thing is that well you don't wanna look at that you want to look at the cool stuff like this the GTX 10 atti which was graciously donated for three days by a good friend of ours who shall not be named he wanted to be anonymous so this is the ROG Poseidon platinum edition of the Tenaya TTI now what's interesting about this car is actually has built-in cooling for not only water but also liquid so if you wait I just say water and liquid because this is a hybrid card that can be used with liquid or air cooling it should be pretty easy to integrate in the build with that we have what is basically the completed bill all that's left to do now is tie it at the cable management put the case back together and see if this actually is going to work my favorite part of any PC build after night of Windows updates and cable management the next step is to get Intel octane memory up and running so the first thing we need to do is make sure that everything is set up in the BIOS so then I do we have our 14 terabyte drive showing up here but importantly we also have Intel Rapid Storage Technology turn on then you just need to install the Intel obtain utility and after a quick restart we are going to be able to see that natalie is our obtain module showing up but we also have our SATA drive which in this case is the 14 terabyte guy so now if I just hit enable this is so unnecessary they did not have to make the animation so cool so we now have an intel octane volume with 13,000 and 39 gigabytes windows just sees it as a single drive which is one of the advantages of octane so you don't need to do any kind of switching back and forth it's going to be able to do everything in the background so we just go ahead and create a new volume should be able to yeah just mount it there okay we are formatted so if I open up our drives there we go we've got our octane drive which looks like it's gonna be totally fine so right now I'm just copying over a single steam game which is going to be pop G but when the advantages of having 14 terabytes for a steam drive is who can install like what like seventy-five 75 gigabyte games that's like all the games and with that Lightning PC build is complete well unless you count J's graphics card which I should probably give him back but luckily for us there's going to be a new graphics card soon so maybe stay tuned for that and give me little bit of time to download 14 terabytes of games I get to a part two to this video right
