what's going on guys welcome back to the channel today we are assembling yet another gaming rig but this one is much different than all the other ones because it features the latest and greatest RGB lighting yes it's a revolutionary technology we are just catching wind of now and it's gracing us with our presence in the most epic RGB PC of 2018 ever you just have to add ever to the end of any sentence and it automatically sounds way cooler special thanks to Thermaltake for making this build possible they've provided every inch of hardware that you see here and let's quickly go down the list of course specs I'm not gonna go over every single piece of hardware here because that would take forever but we are rockin the x2 99 platform for today on a norris gaming 7 motherboard from gigabyte slash morris that's gonna be slotted with a 70 900 X core i-9 processor from Intel featuring 10 cores and 20 threads even though threaded / - just came out and is technically a better Buy but we're not here to talk about that we've also got 64 gigabytes of HyperX predator ddr4 at 29 33 crazy Ram solution there a 480 gig SSD from HyperX once again this is their savage drive along with the GT X 1080 from Oris once again from Oris this is actually one of their special custom water blocks already mounted onto the GPU that actually saves us some time and it'll look really nice as well and powering the whole system we have the thermaltake tough power I RGB plus twelve hundred and fifty watt power supply and the rest of the hardware you see here I want to say it feels like it's almost every piece of custom water cooling hardware that Thermaltake currently sells but that might not be accurate it definitely feels that way though and now you guys are probably wondering what case could possibly be worthy enough to fit all of this glorious RGB unicorn ass hardware well this is the Thermaltake level 20 20th year anniversary computer chassis oh my god why is it so big that's the phrase I don't hear often alright so this is where our build starts with the motherboard getting it all prepared the CPU is already socketed actually a thermal thick had already stuck it into CPU and they shipped it over took me like 20 minutes to find it until I realized oh maybe it's already in the motherboard and sure enough it was anyway I'm digressing we've got memory that we're gonna install and then the rest is pretty much just gonna go you know 0 to 60 for the most part the rest of this video is probably gonna be mostly b-roll in music occasionally if we hit a snag or something like that then we'll go ahead and talk about it and then we'll carry on with the rest of the montage but that's how things are going on for now with that said let's start off let's kick things off with a ceremonial plastic wrap peeling as we as we often do actually we never do that what am I saying here we go well nope no oh no it's breaking into little pieces because the vrm heatsink and shaped it's it's just a bunch of little peels instead of one nice satisfying this is the most depressing just build the damn computer okay the build is not complete yet but we got a lot done you can see that we've pretty much done every step except for the tube ending and filling the loop we're gonna save that for part two because that'll probably take another full day because I'm just not that great at tube bending but it's looking good so far we didn't have to interrupt the montage at any point because things were really smooth everything was pretty straightforward getting it all installed cable management has been fairly simple for the most part except for when you account for all the RGB connections that we've had to make since almost every part of this build has RGB in it at some at some point so we actually had to bust out like three different RGB controllers there's three RGB controllers behind the motherboard tray right now which means we also had to bust out a USB 2.0 hub because there weren't enough USB 2.0 headers on the motherboard so RGB has been the biggest pain in the ass so far for this build but again we haven't gotten to two-bit to bending yet let me quickly go over the runs because we sort of figured out so far like what makes the most sense this is not set in stone by any means but it's just kind of the best we can come up with as of now so starting from the pump res we've got some fittings here we're gonna cheat it a little bit depending on you know time and stuff we might use some soft tubing just for this run going back and down underneath the floor of the case so you can't really see it you won't be able to see any soft tubing if all goes well and then it's gonna go straight up into the GPU from the GPU it's gonna be all hard-line from here straight up back to the CPU CPU block out there's gonna be the most difficult run I think of the whole bill just gonna go out up all the way to the right through these two grommets that are connecting these two chambers together and then from there it's gonna go up and then back into the radiator from the radiator it's gonna go out and then straight down to the reservoir so for this long sort of fu tube or Bend that we're gonna have to do we may employ the the use of some of these burnt macaroni pieces or elbow fittings ninety degrees or whatever just to help us not have to bend so much otherwise we could burn through a lot and a lot of tubing but that's the build so far you guys let us know what you thank thanks again to Thermaltake for making this possible and make sure you guys stick around for part two when we to fill up all these holes with our special fluid I'm gonna cut the video off now before it gets worse thank you so much for watching guys toss a like on the video if you enjoyed it you can also get subscribed for more tech stuff right around the corner also feel free to check us out on floatplane if you'd like to watch our videos a week early without ads for 3 bucks a month I'll put a link for that in the video description til next time thanks for watching have a good one and I'll see you all in the next video
