hey guys welcome back to another episode of hub builder this is the episode we've been talking about for ages now when we've been unboxing all the various things in our unboxing series but we finally have all the parts for that $1,200 1440p you build if you missed the unboxing or unveiling of all these boxes then go back and check out the unboxing series it was a lot of fun but we finally have all the boxes here with hopefully all the hardware inside so we can build that awesome system if you'd like a bit more information on why we picked these various things such as the GTX that's the wrong box that's the GTX 10 50 bucks hey in one moment we're right that's better I only just got this thing yesterday no not yesterday you're probably watching this on Thursday I only got this thing earlier in the week and I already lost it under all the other boxes we have laying around the office anyway we now have the rewind if you want to find out the reasons why we picked various bits of hardware such as the gtx 1070 or the asrock motherboard g.skill memory the crucial SSD and so on and so forth all this cool Coolermaster gear then go back and check out the parts picker guide on this build I'll put the link in the description so as I just mentioned this is a $1,200 u.s. 1440p gaming rig but if you're a kangaroo riding Ozzy like me then you can expect to pay about $1,900 right so first up I'm going to show you guys a time-lapse style video of the build going together so you can see all these awesome components coming together to create what should be the ultimate 1440p gaming rig once built I'll connect up a monitor I get a keyboard mouse and we'll play some games I'll show you the games being played on the system but I'll also report some benchmark data or framerate results and that's really pretty cool so with that let's get to it well that came together quite nicely it's worth noting that I didn't add anything extra to the bill so there's no extra case fans you just get the standard 120 millimeter in the front 120 millimeter in the rear no fancy braided cables or anything like that I was tempted to tart it up a bit with some LED lighting which would have made this look pretty spectacular but bit misleading because that isn't how it would look unless you went and purchased those separately so pretty much this is what you could build with the components we were given right so now let's connect up the monitor keyboard mouse and get gaming he used to make good fun here till all the great guns shake solid copy move into the building the access route you need to block us at the far end of the penthouses and keep in mind the direct route might not be the easiest one Raja met MacCready will advise once each team is on the ground out with the latest and greatest PC gaming hardware on hand I'm often sweat for choice that said if you told me I had to spend the next year or two gaming on this rig I don't think I'd be too upset about that in my opinion even on monitors like the 32 inch Philips screen used for testing 1440p looks great and I don't find an overwhelmingly strong urge to go 4k of course I'm not trying to suggest you guys that this is a budget system by any means it's not it's a $1200 u.s. system or $1,900 Aussie and that's a it's a fair chunk of change but my point is I often game on extreme systems and I don't feel like I'm giving up anything with this sensible 1440p build anyway as we said in our parts pick a guide for this build these specs will make for a very drool-worthy PC capable of delivering very playable 1440p performance in all the latest titles and well we just got an example of that or a few good examples they're only potential upgrade options here include a core i7 6700k or a geforce gtx 1080 also the cool thing about this build is that you could if you wanted to go to a core i7 wait till later next year and get a cab you like core i7 processor and you could even wait till Nvidia or AMD released their upcoming high-end GPUs and get one of them as a potential upgrade down the track so there's there is plenty of options available overall we really love this system we'd like to take a moment to thank all the companies involved in this build big thanks to coolermaster g.skill gigabyte crucial and Western Digital with that I'm going to get out of here and hand it over to you guys smash that like button come on you know your water and as always feel free to drop us some comments below we love hearing from you guys I'm your host Steve catch you next time
