top respectively and breeze through installation with the dismantle of all modular design step up your case game with the a 500 aluminum TG and click on the link below for more info what's going on guys I once again have dwarfed myself with a large pile of hardware but that's okay this is an exciting video actually I guess it's yeah yeah it's I'm gonna say it's exciting I feel really bad that I haven't filled you guys in in a long time having given you an update on the whereabouts of hotline 2.0 so I thought I would do this video where I reveal the core specs that I will for sure be using for this system and do a little preliminary build without the custom water cooling involved because all that Hardware still needs needs to be sourced but I have most of the core components that will be going in to this highly awaited successor some of these parts are not finalized and some of them are so I'm gonna quickly go over each one and describe what's what let's go ahead and start from this side we've got 220 80 TI RT x 20 80 T is from Nvidia these are both founders Edition cards so they've got reference PCBs which will make it really easy to fit on some custom blocks in the near future these are now the fastest gaming graphics cards on the market and when paired together into a sli they will be the fastest GPU configuration you can possibly buy if you're talking about gaming which is important because hotline 2.0 is built is being built exclusively for a gaming experience I don't need it to do awesome editing and rendering like I did with the original hotline because I already have editing systems for that so all the hardware you see here has been hand-picked to deliver the highest possible frame rates in-game which is why these cards are so critical to this build now the motherboard I'm going with is the asus rog Maximus 11 formula which features these e 390 chipset and that supports of course all of Intel's latest ninth gen core processors I really like this motherboard I was kind of blown away by the aesthetic it's just it's right up my alley I like it obviously that's subjective but apart from that it does have an ek backed vrm water block on it which I feel like I kind of have to use it be sort of a slap in the face if I didn't especially if I'm trying to get some gnarly overclocks on it and it's got no shortage of RGB and just endless come Tiffany I think it's gonna be a fantastic motherboard you might notice that I'm not going the high-end desktop route either with thread ripper or skylake X that's because I think as a gaming PC the the only CPU that's really qualified for this job if I'm going balls to the wall is the core I 999 hundred K now you'll notice that I don't have a ninety nine hundred K with me right now so this is a stand-in this is an eighty seven hundred K from the 8th gen but it's gonna be very easy to swap out and stuff I'm not actually hooking up like I said any custom water cooling hardware today so this is just a fill in but that 8 core 16 thread processor is hopefully just gonna annihilate all the games we throw at it and that should also reduce as much bottlenecking as possible with these two RT x 2080 t is for system memory I have a kid here of HyperX predator GB ddr4 29:33 this is just a 16 gigabyte kit to buy a king sticks this is also kind of a philan but kind of not because I am planning to use predator RGB for this build but I think a more substantial kit is necessary for for a system like this so I'll probably get four dims in there I just populate all those slots and it kind of looks a little bit nicer too and we'll probably go with 32 gigs I don't think I need anything more than that for a gaming PC specifically but I really do like the look of these dims and if you remember from hotline 1.0 I was also using HyperX predator ddr4 but that was the non RGB version so this is gonna pay sort of omage to to the original build the official boot drive for this system is gonna be the samsung 970 evo m2 nvme SSD 250 gig capacity i usually don't go much over 250 gigs for my boot drive i just don't need it however as you might have guessed i will also be adding additional storage to the system later down the line because 250 is clearly not going to cut it just for the boot drive moving on here we've got the XP 1200 M from gigabyte this is actually their extreme series extreme gaming series 1200 watt unit 80 plus platinum fully modular cables it's actually a great unit I've been using it for testing quite a bit that's been super reliable so far you can see that I don't have any custom sleeved extensions on hand right now I'm still waiting on those those will look really cool and they're all done but for now I'm probably just gonna have to use these stock cables of this power supply for this build which is fair warning the cables are gonna look kind of crappy and then we also have a cooler the H 10 110 I this is again another placeholder because we don't have the custom we're cooling Hardware in here yet this is a 280 millimeter liquid AO from Corsair and it's a fantastic unit I'm not going to talk too much about it because we're not going to be putting it in the final build and last but certainly not least we have a case picked out for hotline 2.0 this is the fantex evolve x this case absolutely blew me away at Computex this year I love all the the improvements that they've made to the front panel with the RGB lighting and additional openings for air flow and there's just a ton of other features crammed into this thing it's very conducive for custom water cooling it's got tons of radiator support and initially when I picked this case out and decided this is the case I want I was planning to do a dual system inside of hot line 2.0 because you can actually not do mini ITX board up at the top of this chassis but then I realized that would take away from the radiator support for the primary build and I think cooling is very important to prioritize in the system like this so I'm gonna be foregoing the dual system for a single system just more traditional and probably simpler that way but very excited to be using this case nonetheless those are all the official core specs guys for hot line 2.0 I'm super excited if you'd like to find links to all this stuff you can check the description below but without further ado let's get cracking on this early stage assembly thora she blows hotline 2 in her very very early and unfinished stage it's powerful in fact this is the most powerful or the fastest gaming PC that money can buy right now just days before the launch of the 9900 Kay this thing's a beast but it's not pretty per se I wouldn't say the aesthetics are quite on point yet because obviously there's there's still much to be done especially when you've got those nasty PCIe cables I did manage to find a cheaper extension for the 24 pin so that doesn't look as bad still not great though and of course we've you know I didn't really focus too much on cable management here because well this is a very early build we also don't have any color coordination in order as I mentioned in the last update video hotline 2.0 they'll retain the same fuchsia pink color but we may be adding a splash of teal into the mix whether that's going to be actually teal painted components or just an RGB thing I still undecided you can also see we have a hard drive post error code that's probably just because we don't have a physical connected hard drive so nothing to worry about there the motherboard looks absolutely killer in this case and I think it pairs really nicely with that HyperX kit although I do need two extra dims to really complete the picture also something to be aware of the reflective material on the BRM heat a water block right there it's highly prone to scratching and I did scratch up this one on the left here with my finger and a microfiber cloth both of those things were enough to to put some scratches in there so something to be aware of for sure also the lower half of the board isn't very visible right now because you've got the graphics cards in there once we swap those out for the single slot GPU water blocks I think it'll be a lot more visible all that beautiful RGB underneath additionally we've got to cut out for our power supply here looks really nice the sticker on the power supply however not so nice so I'll probably have to heat gun that off at some point just to clean it up a bit the cable management was fantastic on the back side like with those covers they're completely tooless and they they pop on and off very easily it's a really fun case to build in and it didn't even feel like I was cramming that much hardware into it because the ease of use in almost every area of the your installation was just really smooth with that removable bracket you can also tell from this cameras perspective that this is not the longest case in the world it's it's not very deep so it might be a challenge cramming all the custom water cooling hardware that we need into this chassis but I think we could still get away with probably a 360 at the front and the top we'll just have to double-check what kind of width we can get away with at any rate you guys I'm really excited to get this project underway get it moving and stuff and I hope you are too thank you so much for watching this video leave me any feedback down in the comments below and Tessa like on this video if you enjoyed it you can also check me out on floatplane if you'd like to watch my videos a whole week early without ads for three bucks a month I'll put a link for that in the video description till next time guys thanks for watching have a good one and I'll see you all in the next video
