RGB LED Intel Skylake i5 6600K Build

2016-03-18
allow me to introduce you to the brightest most flamboyant Intel scally gaming PC we've ever built I call it the brightest most flamboyant and tell Scott a gaming PC we've ever built now that's that's that's really what we call it this build isn't the most powerful or even the most expensive or even the most economical but given the current RGB frenzy it seems rather fitting first off it's packing an intel core i5 6600 k from the sky like lino currently overclocked to 4.6 gigahertz housing the CPU is the msi Z 178 gaming pro motherboard equipped with two sets of LEDs the right side of which features interchangeable RGB integration for our Ram we've opted for 24 gigabyte 6 of a vic seer blitz ddr4 clock at twenty-eight hundred megahertz our graphics card is a 4 gigabyte EVGA gtx 960 4 gigabyte super super flock edition with a factory overclock and plenty of horsepower for 1080p and even 1440p gaming beneath the goodies in the basement is an EVGA 500 watt 80 plus bronze power supply which provides plenty of power to our relatively power efficient system so I kind of skipped over something let's jump backwards for a second cooling our CPU is the NZXT Kraken x 31 in the 120 millimeter design this brings our temps that Idol down to a very cool 24 degrees Celsius and under a full load temps never pass 50-seat even with a 4.6 gigahertz overclock I think we may have struck the silicon lottery here but more on that later for storage we're boasting the typical a data 120 gigabytes solid-state drive that you can pick up currently for around 40 US dollars we also have a 320 gigabyte western digital caviar blue hard disk drive for general storage keeping everything together is the NZXT s3 40 white in color and providing plenty of window space up front to show off the mass of RGB and RGB less LEDs three extra one hundred forty millimeter fans are equipped all from fantex clashing mad and if you're wondering about the rainbow going on in there we've also thrown in a logisys law jeeeeesus I have no idea are LED strip which can be adjusted with the included remote it's my new personal favorite LED kit and only set us back twenty dollars I have a PC part picker of link in this video's description to aid in your searches for all of these components now let me very quickly discuss what I meant by silicon lottery that I brought up earlier in this video you see all CPUs have theoretical maximum that is a chip will only overclock so much with a specific cooler before reaching unstable temperatures that is entirely subjective but I wouldn't suggest pushing this particular CPU anywhere above 75 seat just to play it safe now this absolute threshold varies from chip-to-chip even to chips from the same lineup will vary in terms of how much they can be overclocked so our 6600 came i overclock slightly better or worse than your 6600 k but what i found is that ours in particular has a very low heat dissipation factor at 4.6 gigahertz in a V Corps of 1.3 we're still not even breaking 50 °c while gaming or under full cpu load a very good friend of mine also has the i5 6600 k however he wasn't able to get his vcore below 1.3 5 volts at 4.6 gigahertz without his computer completely crashing on so who knows maybe we got a bit lucky maybe he got a little bit unlucky but that's a silicon lottery for you but anyways let me know what you think about the specific PC behind me and stay tuned for performance benchmarks which will be coming very soon also if you think that the RGB color scheme is a bit too ostentatious for you let me know in the comments below if you think it's just right also let me know in comments below I read every comment practically and I enjoy seeing your opinions and I enjoy the discussions that I see in most of the videos they're very nice and very refreshing be sure to like or dislike the video depending on your personal convictions and hey if you really liked it click the subscribe button this is science to do thanks for learning witless you
