what's up guys Jays two cents here and we need to build a new computer we are gonna build ourselves the ultimate 9900 Kay editing rig so we've teamed up with MSI to show you how to build it so these are the parts that we've chosen for our onion 100k build and again a huge thank you to MSI for sponsoring today's video now the main part of this and everything's gonna attach to is our m EG z 390 god like this is their flagship z 390 motherboard it has all the features we need to unlock all of the features of our 9900 k it's overclockable expandable and even has a live streaming capture card that comes with it as well as an MDOT 2 expansion card that can plug into your PCI Express Lanes giving you a total of five nvme m2 drives on this so that's amazing when it comes to a motherboard for a graphics card we've also chosen the msi RT X xx atti trio this is a custom PCB overclocking friendly xx atti that's gonna give our gaming performance as well as our rendering performance a huge boost now as mentioned we've got our 9900 K we will be overclocking this because you know overclocking you might be asking yourself why we chose a 9900 K for an editing rig when there's X 299 a much higher core count CPUs out there well that is because of quick sync this has something called quick sync which means premiere can actually leverage the internal GPU in this chip as well as our GPU on top of all the other core you know workout that's happening during premiere to give us a huge edge when it comes to rendering speeds so we saw a huge improvement with the 9900 K in our small form-factor build when we enabled Hardware encoding and it was a huge boost versus not using it at all even with having a GPU so that's why we're using that now in terms of power supply I am using my RM 850 this is a Corsair a power supply we're using a custom sleeve cable set for that to make it look good obviously I mean this is a little bit of an extreme build we want it to look as good as possible because it's a showpiece as well as a regular desktop PC now we've got here some very special edition Corsair ram this is the Dominator platinum it's actually the black and orange with the burnt tops but I switched the silver tops back on this making this more of a one-on-one custom one-off as a lot of ones in their RAM for this build because we are using our be quiet silent bass 801 case which is also black and orange so this is gonna tie in a bit of a theme there speaking of case obviously we like I say we're using the silent based 801 it's a full tower case it's gonna fit our motherboard our graphics cards and we have plenty of expansion availability on there when it comes to hard drives want to add more spinning storage to keep our CPU cool we're using the NZXT kraken X 72 this is a 360 millimeter a i/o water cooler which is going to be easy to service because this is a rendering system we're not doing custom loop or rigid tubes or anything like that because ease of maintenance and working on this system needs to be a priority if somebody goes down so we can easily swap it out we care about lights and stuff around here we like bling if that's not obvious already so we are using the NZXT q2 lighting accessory kit we might expand this to also using the under glow for the case we'll see how that goes and then storage this is this is the interesting part here because this is an editing rig you'll see we've actually got three different types of storage here we are going to be using a patriot 400 and gig 480 gigabyte nvme SSD so it's an m2 SSD that will be plugged in directly to our motherboard in one of the MDOT 2 slots that's gonna house our operating system premiere stuff like that that we want to load quickly we have a kingston SSDI SSD drive this is our scratch drive we're gonna move all footage we're editing on onto this drive and that's the only thing that's gonna be tasked with is allowing us to edit off of this drive so it doesn't have to share resources with any other drives the only readwrite this can be happening on here is with our project files and when we're done we move them off and then the process continues and then we have got the behemoth right here this is our Seagate iron wolf 10 terabyte drive this is going to be our storage drive for all of our video project files when they're done and then we move them from there to our Nazz so we have kind of a redundant backup on there so now that all the parts have been discussed let's go ahead and talk about the tools we're going to use for this build now to build a computer like this you don't really need any sort of specialized in fact all you pretty much are gonna need is a screwdriver and this is a multi-bit driver so it's got flat head on one side Philip on the other and then two different sizes for each as well as a six millimeter an eight millimeter nut driver so this is usually all you need to get the job done because I'm a little bit lazier I like to use a power screwdriver so we'll be using one of these today zip ties and a side side cutters and a magnetic Bowl this is kind of optional tools it just helps you stay organized will be zip tying wires and stuff for cable management the side cutters to cut the zip ties and then of course we don't lose any of our screws so we have this magnetic tray to put all of our screws in so now that we talked about the parts and we've talked about the tools let's go ahead and start building it and show you just how to put it together so the first thing you're going to do is prepare your case now there's no one method that's gonna work for every single case that's out there so you're gonna probably have to check the manual for whichever case you chose so we're gonna take off both the both side panels on this because we're gonna need to access obviously both sides of this case and get these out of the way for safekeeping because we have a tempered glass side panel we're gonna put this somewhere where I won't break it inside pretty much every single case manufacturer box is a box of accessories which is gonna have all your screws any mounting plates that you need for hard drives or whatever else in this case be quiet puts everything in this box drive sleds additional drive sled screws zip ties everything need is here so locate yours instead of the side we'll use that in a minute but now that we've got our case pretty much ready we're gonna go ahead and move on to the motherboard so before we install the motherboard into our case there's two things I want to do before that we're gonna install our CPU into the socket because it's easiest to access right now while it is out of the case and we're also going to install our MDOT two nvme SSD onto the motherboard because it's obviously easy to access now I'm gonna install it in the bottom portion right here because we're gonna have a graphics card in this top slot so if we ever have to access this instead of taking our graphics card out we'll be able to access it right here much easier obviously if you're using three nvm e's then you would put one in all three spots to install the CPU push down the retention arm move it out of the way but keep your finger on it because it is under spring tension so you don't want it to back on you remove the socket cover and then you'll notice on the CPU you actually have two indentations on there and those are going to correlate with two indentations that are on the socket so it can only be installed one way an easy way to remember with Intel CPUs is the lettering is always going to go right side up so smoothly drop it in there give it a little wiggle to make sure it's seated all the way push down the retention cover push it underneath the retention screw and then you'll push the arm down under a lot of tension that's gonna feel awkward there's a lot of tension there move it back under the little lip move the cover out of the way inter CPU is now installed now the nvme installation is pretty simple most of the motherboards are the same you're gonna remove the cover screw this will fold back out of the way the MSIM dot two slots have thermal pads on there so that you can get better thermal transfer of heat from your SSD because a colder Drive performs better so peel that cover off and out of the way remove this retention screw for your SSD keep it in a safe place the SSD installation is very simple it can only go one way you'll notice this notch and it's going to correlate with a notch that's on the motherboard put it in at a slight angle push it down against the thermal pad and then reinstall your screw to hold the drive down so remove the cover from the top piece and then reinstall it in the reverse order that you took it off and now you have one installed nvme SSD now before we install the motherboard you need to prepare your case now the be quiet silent base 8:01 already has the standoffs installed for us for a standard ATX layout but your motherboard may vary if you're using a different sized motherboard or your case may not have those standoffs pre-installed so reference your manual now because ours are ready to be installed we're gonna go ahead and put our motherboard in the chassis now this motherboard already has an i/o shield cover built into the back of it so we don't have to install one in the case if yours has a separate piece of metal you would install that first and then drop your motherboard in now this case has a center stand off that doesn't have a screw thread in there but it has a nipple which is going to hold our motherboard in place so be careful when you line up the motherboard you don't want to have to use any sort of force to get it in there and you don't want the standoff to be grounding anything on the back of the motherboard so once everything is lined up and that all the screw holes line up with your standoffs then you can put in your screws and tighten them down finger tight so I'm going to be relocating the 140 millimeter fans on the front of this case to the top because there are no top fans in this particular case but I'm going to be putting the three hundred sixty millimeter radiator on the front so I'm just going to take these fans off and mount them over here the nice thing about the be quiet case is it has this sled that slides out so if you're installing an a IO or fans or whatever it may be you don't have to try and fight with it you can just slide this out mount everything to it and then slide it back in so depending on the cooler that you have it's gonna be a different process for mounting air coolers are different than a iOS AOS are obviously very different than like custom water cooling loops but the process is typically the same on when I do my installations I like to mount the fans to the radiator first and then mount the radiator where it's gonna go so in this case I'm gonna have the fan set as a pool which means it's pulling air through the radiator into the chassis and I'm gonna mount that to the chassis first and then the cooler to the CPU now to be able to do it right for your application you obviously need to consult the manual with whatever cooler that you're going with now if you're going with at a i/o you need to kind of check for some clearances here so we tried to install this normally so that the writing on the NZXT is horizontal the problem is the tubes we're interfering with our RAM right here which is kind of unfortunate but it's okay because we have plenty of slack in our tube so we can just rotate the cooler in a 90 degree orientation because the bracket is perfectly square so we can just rotate this so that's out of the way and then we are good to go so now that we have our CPU installed our motherboard installed in our chassis and our cooler in there and we've made sure we have no obstructions we can go ahead and install our memory so now you can see why I went with this black and orange kind of an aesthetic because it matches perfectly with our silent base 801 now before you install the memory you want to make sure the tabs are flipped up and that you orient yourself with this notch in the module that correlates with the notch in the socket so because we have four modules it's pretty simple for us we can just put one module in every single slot but if you're not running full modules in all of your slots you want to look at your manual to make sure that you're installing them in the proper order because you have a single channel and dual channel config or if you're running even an x-series motherboard then you can actually have quad channel as well so consult with your manuals to see which slots you need to use for your particular memory configuration so the next thing I'm going to do here is install our storage our one terabyte SSD and our iron will 10 terabyte drive now the be quiet case has this removable cage that you can install the drives in because we might add more storage to this later I'm not going to install both in this cage I'm gonna let the SSD get installed in its portion on the back of the cage or the back of the case right here rather so that we can easily access that because then we have room here for two of these drives if we decide to expand it later now installing it is gonna be dependent on your case so again look at your case mounting options to determine what the appropriate process is but the sine of base 801 actually has these rubber grommets on here to keep our mechanical drive nice and quiet because mechanical drives tend to make clicking sounds and having these rubber grommets are gonna isolate that so that we don't hear it and the nice thing about SSDs is because they're so small you can fit quite a few of them into cases now case manufacturers have picked up on this and it started coming up with pretty unique options to allow you to mount more SSDs and because of their small thin form factor you can fit them just about anywhere so like I said this one mounts on the back of the motherboard tray which gives us nice easy access to it if we decide that we want to remove it replace it upgrade it or whatever down the line so as you can see our SSD is now installed so the nice thing about the NZXT q 2 controller is that it uses the exact same mounting mechanism or hole spacing as an SSD so anywhere that you have an SSD mount you can actually mount the control box but it's also magnetic so if you have a steel case you could just install this on the back your motherboard tray if you didn't have anywhere that you could screw this down and it would stay but because we have the mounting option we're gonna go ahead and mount this on our bracket that goes right behind the CPU so next we're gonna do our power supply and get our cable management ready to go I like to install the graphics card last so if you're waiting to get to that part that's kind of like the icing on the cake we're gonna get our Gref we're gonna get our power supply and our cables all run through here and the be quiet case here has this bracket that comes off the back you mount this to your power supply directly and then you can put in your power supply now there's gonna be a lot of debate and whether or not your fan should be facing down or your fan can face up it's pretty much gonna be preference at this point but these cases do have perforation and airflow vents on the bottom so it can pull in fresh air from the bottom but if you're setting on thick carpet a really tall carpet that could sort of choke off this particular vent right here so it's really gonna be based on your situation if it's on a desk or a hard surface or thin carpet then you'd be fine pointing it straight down in fact that's the way most people prefer to install it so this power supply is fully modular and I have these custom cables to use with this power supply now the cables that come with it or black which look nice but I like the weight individually sleeve cables look this is a black paracord and these are available for the Corsair power supplies so what I'm gonna do now is I'm just gonna plug in all of the cords I know we're going to use we're gonna need our power cable for our PCI Express which is our graphics card our 24 pin for our motherboard our a pin EPS for our CPU and in fact we have two eight pin EPS on this motherboard so I'm gonna plug in both of those and then I'm gonna plug in my peripheral on here as well so that way I can plug in power for our hue to any lighting modules we might add our fan controller as well as our storage now this is where you can start doing some of your cable management you can run the cables that you know we're gonna be going together and zip-tie them now before we put it into the chassis so these are both my 8 pin CPU power plugs and I know these are gonna take the exact same route so I'm gonna go ahead and zip tie these two cables together so I'm not fighting with trying to pull them out of the stack later because as you can see there's quite a few wires that are going into this build and it just makes it easier for me to keep track of I'm gonna do the same thing for the PCI Express as well as the SATA alright so next we're gonna take care of the front side connectors now in this case we do have USB 2.0 and 3.0 header for the front we will not be using the USB 2.0 though because we only have two USB 2.0 headers on this motherboard and we need to use those for NZXT q2 as well as our cooller so we are going to go ahead and route these and try to make them as neat as possible now we also have on here our front reset power and our LEDs and these are gonna connect to the bottom of our motherboard and pretty much every single scenario there on the bottom of the motherboard so just route these wherever it makes sense in your case in our case we're gonna route them kind of right along here like this this is also our HD audio which is front panel audio jack connector so headphone and microphone I personally never use these so I'm just gonna kind of roll that up and push it out of the way now usually in the bottom right hand corner of your motherboard this way you'll find your front panel connector header now the pin outs on these are pretty much standard nowadays where the top two on the right are gonna be your power switch the top two on the left are gonna be your power LED with the positive terminal on the far left the two below that are going to be your hard drive LED and then two to the right of that are gonna be your reset switch with the farthest right pin on the bottom being unused now verify that with your motherboard manual some motherboards decide to be a little bit different but things have been pretty standardized over the last few years now for the frontside USB 3.0 it's a little bit unique in this case so these little covers right here or where additional hard drive sleds can go like this one down here although we're not going to be using any of those they do have these covers that pop off the nice thing is we can actually adjust the depth of the cover if we want it to not be flat against the other side so we can run cables to there so yeah I just made this gap so we're gonna be doing that here for the USB 3.0 and the SATA cables and here for our 24-pin power going to our motherboard so I'm gonna go ahead and route this guy through just like this flip the case around and plug it in and then I'll pop that cover back on so that we have a nice clean look so next up is everyone's favorite part of building computer whether you're experienced or not and that is cable management and I'm not gonna take a lot of time right now to tell you how to cable manage I did a whole video about that that you guys can go and check out right up here we'll put a link in the description below it's all about what I think about when I'm wired managing a computer what I'm gonna tell you right now though as a new big as a new builder if you haven't done this so a couple of things to look out for one you want to make sure that nothing is protruding past the side panel of the case because that's only gonna mean you can't put your case back on so you need things to be run as flat as possible some case just like this one actually the side panel comes out slightly to give you more depth not all cases are like this you want to check with yours the other thing is specifically regarding SATA power that's these thin little guys right here this the thin flat ones not the fat molex like these guys right here but this guy this is what's gonna be powering like your hard drives your SSD we have even some external ones over here for like powering where to go where are you somewhere anyway we've got additional ones that are gonna power like our fan controller here the plastic that's used on these hard drives the SSDs and hard drives is very brittle and when you plug this in as you can see it sticks out a little bit so you want to make sure that you're not pushing down or up on that make sure that does not happen because if it does you will snap the plastic off that quicker then I don't know insert your own analogy here a lot of power supplies actually have a 90 degree plug for SATA rather than a straight like this which means it doesn't stick out nearly as far now if yours is like this you can bend the wires quite a bit like that kind of make your own 90 that way they're sort of stuck out of the way like that so they're not getting you know sticking out too far and getting hit on things definitely be careful of that as you can see that sticks out really far and that will snap off the plastic same goes for your SATA plug this guy right here as you can see I'm using a ninety degree on here so that we don't accidentally snap that off as you can see it goes just like that so let's go ahead and wire manage this then we'll plug in our graphics card and we'll get things to start firing up so now that all the wiring is in here there's alot crammed behind this case but this is this isn't the business end it's okay if this is a little bit messy but you need to make sure nothing's binding or getting caught up or is going to get pinched on your side panel so I'm gonna go ahead and hook this guy on make sure that we're good to go and there we go so everything is on if we flip it around you can see all the time we spent managing our cables made everything look way cleaner on this side now before we install our MSI r-tx 20 atti trio we need to prepare the back of the case right here so we have to remove some of the expansion slot covers that way we can actually get access to our DisplayPort and HDMI ports so it's pretty simple this uses 2 if it's got 2 of these little screw holes and it's got 2 of these little brackets on here you only have to remove 2 from the back of the case and the easiest way to know which 2 is just go straight across from the slot that you're gonna put it in and then go take the 1 even with it and the one below it off so in this case because we're using the top slot we can just take off the top 2 expansion slot covers on the PCIe slot just push the retention tab down yours might look a little different it might have a little squeeze tab on the side just make sure it's open and ready to accept the graphics card lineup these two tabs right here with the slot so I always start there line those 2 in and once those are lined up then you can push the card into the socket until it clicks that little tab is now closed and our graphics card is pretty much installed we've got to put our screws in here now and then in plug in our power it's done our custom 90 100k build that we built all on our own and theoretically if you guys followed along you built a computer to 99 hundred k sitting on top of our MSI m EG z 390 god-like motherboard and our msi RT x 28 e TI gaming trio but obviously we have to test it we've got to get an operating system installed we got to make sure it turns on all of our drives and stuff are there and to do that msi has hooked us up with a plethora of stuff to get the job done so this panel right here is a 27-inch 144 hertz 1080p gaming panel that is the optics MP g27 see our keyboard right here is the GK 80 it's the vigor GK 80 keyboard which has a detachable wrist rest that's made out of metal super super heavy-duty as you could hear that's not going anywhere we've got an immersed gh 60 gaming headset and AGM 80 plus mouse so here we go we need to see now if this thing is going to boot and otherwise we'll have to do it all over again and this little cable we got sitting right here this is actually for our hue our hue lighting is attached to our glass panel so we plug that in when we put the panel on and then everything should go from there but we've just got a monitor just boot it up you can see we've got some RGB going on the bottom right there all this lighting amongst all of these devices actually controlled via MSI's mystic light so you can actually control our mystic RGB so you can control all of that via their control panel there is our BIOS and let's see if we've got our let's see if we actually got our hard drives and stuff going on so hardware monitor actually just go over here to our board explorer and that'll tell us what we've got so here is our MT right there our Patriot hellfire 480 gig you can see we've got our frontside USB 3.0 going and if we look at SATA ports it shows we've got our kingston right there which is our SSD now one terabyte and we've got on port 6 our 10 terabyte iron wolf drive and of course of 900k showing up and all of our RAM sticks are showing up so that's a really nice feature of the msi motherboards as the BIOS will show you a board Explorer which gives you the information of everything that is plugged in to it okay so we have to install an operating system on this now and we're gonna obviously be installing Windows 10 and using Adobe premier for all our editing purposes and installing an operating system is a lot easier than you may think Windows 10 now installs from a flash drive plug it into the motherboard the motherboard are automatically detected it's a boot device and take you through the installation process so guys once again a huge thank you to MSI for sponsoring today's build guide and providing us these parts to bring you our coverage of how to build a ninety nine hundred K system you can learn more about what MSI has to offer by clicking the link in the description below and as always guys we'll see you in the next but this is guilt this guilt abide walking here alright so these are the parts we're gonna use here on this computer we're gonna put it together and be like yo you know it's you know it's hard for me words I got game please no
