with the recent release of coffee Lakes some are labeling it as The Empire Strikes Back anyways I'd have to agree except for the fact this time the Empire doesn't have many imperial star destroyers in their fleet so that's kind of referring to the stock levels of the 8700 K but with that aside I did manage to get a sample set in from asrock there Z 370 gaming i7 and also an 8700 K which I'll be doing some benchmarks for you guys in an upcoming video I've actually completed all the results hence why I'm building this machine and why I can recommend it and we've also got besides that the galaxy X 1080 Ti this thing is super fast it's also got the wide aesthetic so will look really good and it will also perform really well below that we've got the Corsair RM 850 X this is Johnny gurus personal favorite out of the Corsair power supply lineup great value but also really good componentry in this pounce play and then we've got the 570 X this is a tempered glass case with three RGB fans at the front that not only add to the aesthetic but also do a really good job of cooling in this case is very easy to work with course they were also kind enough to send out a 120 gigabyte SSD and also a 16 gigabyte dual channel kit of RGB memory and then for cooling we've got the h1 10 I this is a really good all-in-one solution to 140 millimeter fans does a really good job for all-in-ones it's actually one of the best out there for getting those low temperatures especially on a deal it'ld 8700 k and if you guys follow me on twitter I did a live deal lidding of the 8700 k at Bunnings Warehouse cost me nothing because I used one of their biases and it worked perfectly fine welcome back to tech yes City today we've got one massive build if you guys are into new parts and you want to get the latest and greatest and of course you have a bit of money in your stack this build will definitely give you results 2167 US dollars if you were to go buy all the parts yourself build this thing and if you're in Australia will cost around 3,000 a strand also it is very expensive not the best price performance but one of the best in terms of absolute performance I've done the results on this combination before I've done this build and the performance is simply amazing with the GT X 1080 Ti with an i7 8700 K overclock to 5 gigahertz now on that note of the 8700 K if you're overclocking these then you will probably want to delive them as they're before temperatures I had the over clocks just simply failing at 5 minutes after I deal it it I got an instant 15 degree drop this was a minute into the benchmark and of course the 5 gigahertz overclock was now stable at the same voltages there we'll all that aside let's build this PC overclock and then tune it and then after that we're gonna see just how well it runs in today's titles so now we've completed this bill with all its glorious RGB however there were some hiccups along the way the first being the cable management at the back of the 570 X since there is RGB controller than a lot of extra wires I don't see myself using a ketchup and mustard build for example with cable extensions I just think you'd run into a lot of suffocation in terms of cable space and not only that the H 110 I off the top here actually doesn't fit flush I had to change the to 140 mm fans around swap them with 120mm fans and then zip tie those down just so we could get an even fit now of course you can take out this 280 millimeter radiator mounted to the front of the case and when you do that you have to take out three pre-installed fans which actually give this case really good airflow so I don't really want to do that as I'll actually be a detriment to temperatures for like the GP year for example and the vrm on the motherboard though of course with all that aside it's now time to overclock this thing and then tune it and we're going to focus on some competitive multiplayer titles at both 1080p and 4k since of course we have the 1080 TI to match this demand now we just finished overclocking the 8700 K to five gigahertz and we've got 84 degrees on one core now this is kind of like the max threshold that I'm happy with for everyday usage I wouldn't want to go any higher this is in a 25 degree C ambient environment now if we were using the 140 mm fans we would get better temperatures also in the upcoming benchmark video you will see better temperatures because I will be using 100% fan profiles and so this is so I can get an apples-to-apples comparison however in this video I will be using PWM controlled fan profiles because they're much better for everyday usage of course when I'm editing a video I wouldn't want a hundred percent fan noise creeping in it would drive me crazy so with the PWM fan profiles 5 gigahertz deleted CPU and the temperatures are pretty good I'll let you guys take a quick listen on max load and for the GTX 10 atti from Galax this thing is really aggressively overclocked out of the box I couldn't really overclock it anymore I did manage to get at 40 megahertz on the core just to get it over that 2 gigahertz barrier I think anyone with a GTX 10 series card kind of wants to get over that 2 Giga as barrier just to make themselves feel like they've achieved something myself included and as for the memory we only got an extra hundred megahertz effective so this thing already out of the factory is really aggressively clocked it's great for those guys who just want to put it in their computer start loading up games you'll get really good performance out of this card so what we saw in the benchmarks was as expected this thing was just destroying games pub G 1080p high settings we're getting a hundred and forty-four fps and I didn't actually know that this game was hard locked at 144 FPS so that was interesting to find out and then at 4k we were still getting over 60 FPS so both times it was a really enjoyable experience overwatch we moved into that 300 FPS at 1080p we stepped it up to 4k we're still getting over a hundred and twenty FPS so something like this is already showing its colors that it's geared up towards competitive gamers who still like to play with decent quality settings but like to get really high frame rates extending over to csgo I like to use low and high blend of graphics settings 1080p 600 FPS of pretty much all times on dust2 then we stepped it up to 4k we're still getting over 300 FPS most of the time what about dota 2 and this is a game that I probably play the most in my spare time I like to play this competitively 1080p 240 FPS we step it up to 4k we're still getting well over a hundred and fifty FPS at high settings and it was at these settings that the game engine was kind of breaking up it was a weird experience where there was some really odd stuttering going on however when we dropped it up or raised it up to 4k settings we saw that we're getting still over a hundred FPS and it was extremely smooth at 4k so it was really good to see this happening in Grand Theft Auto though what it comes down to with this build when we look at the price performance of course Verizon v 1600 overclocked with the stock cooler on a be 350 motherboard is still gonna represent some of the best value for money in the new part sector but something with this the 8700 K custom water cooler GTX 10 80 TI it's definitely going to be the best when it comes to gaming whether it be your competitive gaming you just want the at most best FPS possible or if you want to be competitive but still enjoy graphical settings like myself then something like this combination is definitely going to give you that edge that you're looking for though another odd thing that I've noticed when I've been trying to gain competitively is when I'm on the ring bus architecture enough from Jules eons or the skylake mesh architecture or the rising k17 architecture and I've switched over to the ring bus I noticed that it's more snappier and responsive and I do have to back this up with empirical evidence I know but for some odd reason whenever I'm on this architecture versus any others my rating starts to crawl up again I find myself making better plays so it's something that I do have to test with empirical evidence but my feelings at the moment is that if you are a competitive gamer and you are looking for the edge then I believe something like the ring bus architecture which is first implemented in the Sandy Bridge days and even that architecture shares a lot of similarities with the skylake architecture and now cold coffee lake which pretty much the same thing just two extra cores formal threads is the best if you're a competitive gamer so again I do have to back this off with some empirical evidence when I move into the new studio room which is common guys it's actually being made right now I'm gonna be uploading a vlog very soon I will be running some tests for you guys to see if I can find any differences or if it's all just in my head and a placebo effect of course something like this if you're into buying new gear this is like the premium best of the best out there at the moment in my opinion and really when I think about it when we compare the cost of something like this which is 2000 u.s. to something like cars this is the reason why I got into PC gaming it was a lot cheaper than cars I remember being a teenager and in my young 20s and constantly being broke buying things like air pods and exhausts for my cars and really I just all they got was this loud car that just went Bam Bam Bam and it broke down and then I'd be out of more money and then when I got into PC gaming I started spending money on my gear and I started getting results things didn't break down because the more you spend on computer parts generally the better gear you're going to get so something like this it is that premium option if you compare it to a sports car like a premium sports car it's kind of a similar analogy in that you've got the power there and I'm sure you're not gonna use it all the time but it's definitely there just like that premium sports car option the difference between computers and sports cars obviously being sports cars cost a lot more money anyway I hope you enjoyed today's video if you did then be sure to hit that like button and let me know in the comment section below if you had two thousand US dollars to this date what would you build and of course I'll put some other options in the description below if you're on a budget and you still want to get a 1080 TN and 8700 K then I'll put some options of course on that note with the 8700 K I did ask a rep at a motherboard company to ask Intel and I got an answer back and these stocks for the 8700 K won't be an easy supply until sometime in December going through January so that's when you're really looking at going into a storm being able to buy one of these CPUs but until then I see the CPU being in high demand and low supply so that's going to create a rut first people who want to buy it so on that note I did manage to get an 8400 locally from a retailer so that CPU seems to be easy to get however the problem with the 8400 is that the motherboards that you want to match it with the budget ones like the beat 360 and h3 ten don't come out for another couple of months either so anyway guys hope you enjoyed today's video and I'll catch you in another tech video very soon peace out for now bye
