hey what's going on YouTube glad to see you here once again now today's video is pretty much our build in the corsair 500 d case but we did something really cool we actually tested it did a full building it and made a time-lapse video showing anthony putting the entire system together which is actually pretty cool so this particular system i want to state right off the bat it's about fifteen hundred dollars i have all the fans on it right now turn up to full blast so you guys can even why we're filming how loud it is so if you're building a system your name wall how loud are those ll fans okay well this is how loud they are they're really really nice fancy they're complete RGB and even when you turn them up on full blast they work pretty doggone well if this is inside of my room with me i wouldn't be complaining i mean oh my god turn those fans down and you guys know how some systems are any of the fans turn full blast you can't even barely hear yourself think unless you were on headphones this is the full-on now this particular system is based on an AMD build so it's pretty much AMD as much as possible no i didn't use an AMD SSD or AMD memory but the cpu the motherboard all the basically heart of the motherboard is all an AMD build it's a 2600 x the system looks really really nice the attention to detail and the build and everything is really really cool i think you folks are really gonna like it but with that said though let's jump in let's check out the parts then let's check out the time-lapse video check out those scores and at the end of the day why even though this doesn't cost 1500 bucks there's still a lot of room that you guys can do for upgrading and making this system even better than it is today so let's jump right in the corsair obsidian 500 d is a mid tower case that features smoked tempered glass on both the front and back and you can open these very easily just pop them open and close and they all work off magnetics so it's really effortless to open and close the windows it also features aluminum trim the entire inside of the case is really nice and smooth and as you guys will see later on the video doing cable management this particular case is very easy as well the power supply is completely covered by a shroud there's plenty of room inside of it for different radiators different fans it's got just enough room to fit pretty much like the maximum sized parts that you can get and if you want to use an aftermarket cooler between the mother bored and the window there's just enough room like I said to put in just about any part out there for the motherboard I wanted something that was really nice but yet something that wasn't going to be in the three hundred four hundred dollar range making this system just completely excessively priced so I chose the Asus prime x4 70 Pro this is an AMD rising 2 board am4 technology you can use ddr4 all that good stuff at overclocks pretty nicely as well all in all for 155 bucks this is a very solid motherboard and I've had no issues with it whatsoever the AMD Rison 520 600 X processor it actually came with its own Wraith cooler but I decided that you know I really didn't want to use the Wraith cooler I want to use something just a little bit better even though those work really nice I'm not knocking it I wanted something that just had a little bit more oomph now this particular processor about 225 dollars right now but if you're looking for a really high-end AMD processor one that has six cores and twelve threads it's completely unlocked it has a maximum frequency boost of 4.2 gigahertz all in all this is a really really super powerful CPU that can be used for gaming for editing all kinds of stuff and the price really isn't that bad and on Amazon it's actually one of Amazon's best selling processors and an Amazon choice product like I said I wanted to have a cooler that was a little bit better than the stock cooler how much better I really don't know but I just wanted to experiment around with the sky fula now this is the revision B of this particular cooler it's about $50 it features a dual tower design this helps increase the heat dissipation and it actually doesn't more effectively by helping dissipate that heat all away from your CPU and then blowing it out with those fans now the sky it came with two of its own fans but we modified that design we took the fan out of the middle we placed that on the outside and the middle we put a really nice ll corsair fan featuring RGB technology this helps dissipate and get the air away from that hot CPU the memory we use in this build is the Corsair Vengeance LP X 8 gigabyte kit do you guys all know that memory is pretty expensive right now and this particular kits about a hundred and twenty-six dollars I know don't hit me I know it's really expensive from memory but you guys know that right now memory really is at a premium this is ddr4 200 when you go inside of your biases particular motherboard you just sent it to that speed and you're good to go I'm the AMD motherboard doesn't have XMP profiles directly but when you set it it just works at that speed automatically making it really simple to set up inside of this system you guys will see there are a lot of fans and so we chose the commander proof from Corsair to control these fans and it integrates really nice this particular case the only caveat about this particular product is it is $65 but it makes managing all the cables hooking everything up and controlling it a breeze and this can all be done to the Windows environment as well so if we're you're inside your Windows environment you want to change some stuff you just click some buttons and hey you can change anything you want to the speeds like you want most of the fans inside of the system are the coarser ll series ll 120 RGB fan these are 120 millimeter dual light loop RGB fans they're really really quiet they can come in a 3-pack and you can get three these for about $80 I have to tell you folks though these fans even turn to full blast as you guys can see in the video are really quiet so if you're looking for something that not only looks good can move a lot of air and not produce a lot of noise these fans are really nice I know they cost a few dollars more but I think they're worth it and controlling all of these fans and everything is done through the corsair link software which you guys can download and install on your system really simply the power supply we use this build as the C Sonic prime AirTouch 850 gold power supply now this is a fully modular power supply and one thing really nice about this particular power supply is on the back there's a button where you can change the fan speed so if you're doing a lot of gaming and you feel your system's getting hot you can adjust the fan speeds all the way up to pretty much loud and this particular fans on the power supply get even louder than those ll fans when it's turned on full-blast so you know that that power supply is getting really really cooled it's about a hundred and sixty dollars has a great warranty great fan it also has a self on tester and a 12 year warranty which is really killer the boot drive in this system is something really really unbelievably cheap it's an SSD 120 gigabyte SSD that's only $25 and if you want to get a 250 gigabyte model it's only $42 now this is the inland professional 120 gigabyte say two three six gigabyte a second 2.5 internal solid-state drives a mouthful right 120 gigabyte SSD pretty fast speeds a decent warranty and a price that's only a 25 bucks for the storage drive and for playing all the games I chose the Seagate 2 terabyte Barracuda Drive now these particular drives 7200 rpm drives they're very fast they're reliable they're not quite as fast as the fire Cudas which are kind of a combination of an SSD and a hard drive but they're really well known it's a solid drive and it's under $60 currently $57.99 and another Amazon choice product video car prices have been skyrocketing up and down and we did this build we chose the gigabyte ARS Radeon rx 580 card this is an 8 gigabyte card it's currently under $300 so it's a really nice price card it still plays games good obviously if you're gonna get the latest video cards from them they're gonna play games a little bit better but hey the 580 is nothing to snuff at especially the 8 gigabyte version ok so those are all the parts and the parts themselves are about for $200 the reason I said $1500 that some people out there get really picky if I don't include the Windows software and to get Windows 10 Pro is about a hundred dollars making the system about $1500 like usual though you can make some different part changes inside of this system you could sacrifice some or get something different there's all kinds of different parts out there but with that said though let's jump in and let's check out Anthony putting this system together in a time-lapse video and seeing how all of this comes from a bunch of separate parts on a table into the nice system you see here before you so first off after we've gotten all of our parts together and we know exactly we're going to put inside of the build the first thing we're going to do is we're going to mount the CPU on to the motherboard this is a pretty easy process we'll be having a video later on showing you guys exactly how to do this in more slow motion so you guys can take advantage of that but after that it's just installing the CPU on the motherboard then installing the cooler and then after all that stuff has done it's now ready to be stuck inside the system so let's move over and let's start preparing the system for the build first up we're gonna entirely gut the Obsidian 500d and the reason that we're gonna do this is once you've got the entire system out it makes it much easier and cleaner to start putting all the parts back inside of it this only takes a few minutes and as you guys can see once everything's outside of the system it's really easy to get back into and put those parts back first we're going to install all of the front intake fans these are all really nice Corsair fans and they all feature RGB in fact all of the fans used in this build today are all RGB fans you get lots of lighting options before we put the rest of the fans in we're gonna install the power supply figure out where all its different wiring goes all the different connections you guys can see the power install installs in the 500d under the back into the bottom and it also has a shroud that completely covers it so once the power supply is installed you can't see it whatsoever the 500d has ample room in the back of the case to install your SSDs and your hard drives and here you guys can see that we're mounting the SSD back there and there's also plenty of room back there to work with so when you do your cable management later on in the bill you'll see that there's just enough room in there for you to get everything in there nice and snug and still get the cable management looking good earlier we showed you guys installing the CPU onto the motherboard installing the heatsink and then installing the memory and all that stuff but now we have to install all those parts inside of the system now installing the motherboard inside the case isn't really all that hard especially when you have a nice case like this all the offsets that on the back of the case make installing the motherboard really simple and then once you put the motherboard inside of there then comes the real kind of tricky part of connecting everything on it and making sure at the end that all that stuff works that you've just connected it's a lot of wiring believe me now starts all of the cable stuff and like I said the cable management is where I think our builds really do shine we have excellent cable management due to mr. Anthony he's really good at this he's been doing it a long time he pays attention to detail he takes his time right now he's hooking up the Corsair commander to all the lights and all that stuff the Corsair commander it actually controls all the different lights inside the system we didn't use the onboard one that came with the case we actually used the commander we just think that one gives more options all around so that's the one that we installed now earlier I told you guys about installing the hard drives in the back of the case and had there was ample room inside of the case for doing all that cable management as you guys can see is he meticulously goes through and does all this stuff all of the cable management starts to come to fore tation in this video I know it seems really really fast and I keep put this whole computer together in about five minutes but this is actually a couple of hours of time just condensed down so you guys don't get totally bored watching our long videos if you really like to see a video that's not you know not in a time-lapse like this and you'd like to see the full event of it let us know and we can make a video and we can do that it just be a very very long video because this does take quite a bit of time to do properly next up we're going to install the video card make sure it's all in there make sure it's not sagging also you want to make sure when you're installing the power supply and getting all that cable management stuff that you definitely have the right leads for your video card so if you need to eight pins or you need to six pins or an eight and a six you got to make sure that you leave those connections open and if you also plan doing crossfire or SLI later down the line you want to make sure you leave all those lines out and available to you so that you're not try to dig it out once the systems built could trust me getting to the power supply and doing all that once the systems completely built can be a real pain in the butt so when you're doing your build make sure you know what you're going to the future if you don't plan on doing SLI you don't plan on doing crossfire then obviously that isn't meaning to you and just make sure you have that you know the wiring out for one video card finishing up the cable management is where it gets really meticulous because you've got to make sure that you wrap everything together you've got to lock it down you got to make sure that it all fits in the backpack there that it doesn't look all messy and that the airflow through your system is completely clear which means there's nothing just lying around in there you know causing airflow restriction I know some people say oh it really doesn't matter but I feel having the cleanest air flow path possible is the absolute best thing that you can have in your system after the cable management's done it's just a matter of putting all the parts back onto the outside of the case and getting it ready to put windows on you have to admit this system looks really bad ads it's a very well-put-together system it's nice clean lines it's very beautiful but hey looks are just one thing how does the system perform well let's check it out one thing kind of interesting you guys will notice is that the cpu maximum temperature was 71 Celsius and the video card was 72 Celsius so there wasn't very much of a difference between the AMD cpu and the AMD GPU which is kind of pretty interesting the rest the scores are really nice you guys can see if you want to install a better video card you want to get your self of Vega thirty-six or Vegas 64 obviously you could do that and that's one of the nice things about this system is that you can upgrade it and change into whatever you want because life is about options alright tech fans so there you have it our build inside of the Corsair obsidian 500 d case and you got to admit she sure looks absolutely nice all of the scores in this particular system are really right on par what they should be like I said earlier in the video you have the options of changing out the video card the CPU I don't really think there's any reason to really upgrade the CPU right now I mean 2700 X a little bit higher but this is really really close and you guys can see it runs really well so if you're a streamer somebody who plays games all that type of stuff obviously this is gonna be a really nice system and I have to say that even though the system's air-cooled only getting 71 Celsius is the maximum temperature when the system's under full load is still pretty cool so the CPU cooler is working really nice previously we'd used a wraith core and believe me it was a little bit hotter than this so paying that extra 50 bucks I think in the end is worth it to get that you know aftermarket CPU cool that just works that wee bit better and putting that Center fan in between them gives you just more airflow which helps dissipate that heat helping to keep that CPU running really cool video cards hey they are what they are prices have been so crazy lately you never know where they're gonna be really high or really low but if you want to add just like another 150 dollars to this or $200 you can get all the way up to a Vega 56 making the system about sixteen hundred dollars probably seven hundred dollars at the max but then you get all this really cool stuff like I said RGB fans are really easily controlled inside by the slink software the commander Pro it makes hooking all this stuff up together you guys saw the cable management how that all went together using the right parts even sometimes you know when the parts cost a few Duckett's more sometimes make the difference between a system that's totally cool and really awesome looking or a system that has a bunch of cables lagging around or just looking messy you guys can see this bad boy does not have any messy cables whatsoever on it anywhere it runs nice it performs nice it's quiet if you like this particular build hey you can do one for yourself or choose whatever parts you want to exchange it or not to make it your personal build I'm Elric like usual we will have a link below to all these different parts if you're not sub to the channel I ask hey please sub and if you don't have notifications turned on hey make sure you do that as well also if you'd really like to support the channel we have patreon going on as well you can chip in a few bucks and just help techo tomorrow keep Tekin beasts
