Helium - AMD Ryzen Gaming PC Build (2017)

2017-03-02
hey guys Boston so you may have seen just a couple of my budget gaming PC build however today we're doing something a little bit different meet helium a brand new high-end gaming PC powered by rising so big shout out to Andy for hooking us up with rising early so inside this box you'll see that we have some fun toys to play with for this build so first of all we have the brand new risin 7 1800 X processor now this thing is no joke now they just have eight full cores that are hyper threaded but it can light up to four gigahertz we also have the new MSI X 370 X powered gaming titanium motherboard because of course the longer the name the better its board but this is just the beginning of what we have in store for helium for the case we're doing something just a little bit different this is the corsair 600c now from the outside it might look like any other case but take a look at the 600 C you'll see that it is a little bit of a different looking case so you pop it open and what you'll find is it inside everything is flipped upside down so your power supply goes up here the motherboard goes in upside down the graphics cards are here and while in theory this will allow it to be a little more compact than a normal large ATX case honestly also just think it looks really cool powering the helium is a 700k wives EVGA supernova power supply so while this might technically be just a little bit more than we actually need to run this system I always like to have just a little bit of extra Headroom and since it's an 80 plus gold supply it means it should be reliable and efficient for quite a while so since we're using a rising CPU we have to have an AMD am 4 motherboard which is where the X power comes in so in theory this actually will support future AMD chips however Rises 7 should be about as high-end as it gets for a while and this still has all the bells and whistles that we want also that looks really cool so this is my first close look at an AM 4 motherboard and for the most part everything you expect to be is right here so the biggest difference you'll see is the cooling is obviously going to be different to most intel boards but for the most part you'll find stuff like ddr4 and to support everything is here I've got to get MSI props this is a crazy crazy looking motherboard just the idea of having that silver finish across the entire thing it looks so so clean I absolutely love it this is going to be much without a rise in processor to power it so the is the 1800 X which means that the box itself is actually going to be pretty empty there's no stock will included here you will have to plan on getting something else as you'll see we have something a little special in mind but what we do have the most important is the 1800 X as well as a little ricin stickers if you want to let me know how cool you are guys so to install all we need to do is just pull the arm back to open the socket we line our 1800 X up nice and carefully until it rests into place and then we push the arm down and it's going to be fully installed remembering we have six pages of ice of Corsair Vengeance lpx so not only is this ddr4 but it actually can clock up to 3000 megahertz so here with our rising processor this should be a pretty pretty speedy system 3 SSE we have a Samsung knife if you Pro now I'm a big fan of these they are really really fast and since it comes the m2 form factor it means that we can nicely sort of tuck it away in the build now I to doubt you have to turn 56 version but if you want to upgrade to more storage you can't get this in 512 gigabytes and of course we do have a normal hard drive to go in the system as well keeping our 1800 I school is an ek predator 240 this is an all-in-one water-cooler revising logo on the side and it's thought this is way overkill but it should allow us to do some pretty decent overclock this is looking a little bit more like it so we ended up doing is putting our water cooling on the front of the case and then changing the case fans to pull air in from the bottom so the idea is is the air should be coming up into the graphics cards and exhausted out the back now the Rison branding might be a little bit over the top so not only is it on the actual block itself there's also a little logo here but once we get the graphics cards in we get cables a little bit more managed there should be a really clean looking system the other graphics cards we got a pair of GTX 1080 now yes the 1080p I was just announced but I don't have any of those and j2 sensibility bar was 1080 so that we're using for the build well the cool parts about using this system though especially with this case is it actually looks pretty cool we actually are able to show the graphics cards off pretty well last but not least we have a 4 terabyte Seagate Barracuda hard drive now this combined with the 950 Pro should give us plenty of storage space with the helium with that the build is pretty much done so let's do a little bit of cable management and see where this guy can actually do alright so the helium build is up and running before we get into the actual game I'm curious how the rising 7th processor performed so instead of inch on the single thread side it's little bit down on something like a cable a core i7 but most importantly when you get into the multi thread side it absolutely kills it and that just makes sense of course we have eight cores and sixteen threads here so there's going to be a lot of power to tackle not only gaming the things like editing or streaming something cool but Rison is that all the CPUs are going to be overclockable as long as you have a motherboard that supports it and when the high ends that should be no surprise especially as more and more affordable rising ships come out that's going to be a big advantage and they're all capable of using the rise in map commute ility so this is a windows-based overclocking tool it wants a little bit basic you still get a lot of the major things that you would expect and khloé be able to change the clock speed voltage memory clocks that kind of stuff however it's in beta right now and I've had a few issues with it so I'm going to be overclocking using the BIOS with a quick overclock we've got the 1800 X running at 4 gigahertz across all eight cores and we did that without needing any additional voltage now it's not a huge improvement over stock but it's essentially free performance if you don't like throwing more voltage and you have enough cooling so there's definitely more headroom left in it but what I'm curious about is how Rison performs it's topped with GTA 5 the helium is hardly even breaking it's wet so playing on the LG ultrawide monitor which is running at 38 40 by 1600 even with basically everything cranked up we're still getting over 80 frames per second across the board while overwatch might not be the greatest game to play on ultra wide monitor this is complete overkill even playing on epic settings at full resolution we're still averaging about 230 to 250 frames per second next we have ashes of the singularity now this might not be the most popular game in the world but it does a great job of not only taking advantage of DirectX 12 but also as much CPU powers you can throw at it and here on extreme settings we're getting a very respectable 55 frames per second next up we have battlefield one and this is another game that's fully supported by DirectX 12 so the nice thing here is that with those dual 1080s and our rise in CPU nothing is really being bottlenecked so even with full Ultra settings I'm still averaging about 80 to 90 frames per second well Rison might not have a huge advantage when it comes to gaming compared to something like a core i5 or an i7 having all those extra cores is helpful for things like editing as well as streaming and ii totally handle canes no problem so as always links to everything you guys need to build the system will be in the description i'm curious what do you guys think about rising let me know in the comments below and I will catch you in the next one
