2016-04-05
I got a great response from you guys after putting together the budget or rather mainstream AMD and Intel builds over the past few weeks and I had a lot of fun putting em together - so much so that I've decided to dive straight into another build log video series but this time it's a little different for this build there's no real budget in mind instead the mission is to create a really powerful 4k capable gaming rig that will be easy to lug around to lands or sit subtle in your living room or bedroom ever since AMD slashed the pricing of there are nine nano I've wanted to include two of these cards and a build and this mighty mini portable build seemed like the perfect opportunity to do so complementing the crossfire nano cards will be the Intel Core i7 6 or 700 km gigabytes awesome little z170 MX gaming 5 motherboard for good measure 32 gigabytes of kingston savage ddr4 3000 memory will be included along with the predator 240 gigabyte SSD as the boot drive the Western Digital Black Sticks terabyte hard drive will also be included as a secondary storage device all of this hardware will be built into the Thermaltake core v 21 a neat little micro ATX case that supports two dual slot graphics cards which is perfect for a set of nanos will also look extremely cool and show off the hardware inside cooling the 6700 kV thermal takes water 3.0 ring RGB 240 all in one closed-loop liquid cooler and powering the system would be thermal takes smart GPS G 750 watt power supply before we benchmark this crossfire beast I've recorded the build process and made a little time last for you guys to at the end I'll include some 3d mark firestrike results followed by a second more in-depth benchmark video next week so for now bust out the popcorn and get comfortable it's time to put this thing together well that was fun now I'm keen to see how the dual nanos perform in a few of the latest triple-a titles as well as how they go with direct x12 performance at 4k and game such as hitman and ashes the singularity so that's what I'll be doing for the next few days and you can expect to see those results next week until then here's a screenshot of the 3d mark firestrike ultra score of almost 7,000 points which I believe is pretty decent for a dual nano setup personally I don't place too much weight on these synthetic EP knee measuring tools but I know firestrike ultra is a popular benchmark so I decided to include it anyway it's a bit of a teaser as always I'm your host Matt and I'll see you in the benchmark video next week you
