  1. I just watched jayztwocents video on this case as i am looking to build a water cooled rig. i have looked everywhere for this thing and i can not find it. (a link would be appreciated) Thanks!
  2. I will be doing a custom water cooling loop from EK water blocks with clear flexible tubing and neon green fluid. I would like to hear any feedback good or bad please. Also would like to know if the nzxt h710i has good air flow for radiators (360 in front, 360 slim up top) PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor $329.00 @ Amazon Motherboard Gigabyte X570 AORUS ULTRA ATX AM4 Motherboard $298.90 @ OutletPC Memory G.Skill Trident Z Neo 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 Memory $124.99 @ Newegg Storage Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive $109.99 @ Amazon Video Card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti 11 GB Founders Edition Video Card $1199.99 @ Best Buy Case NZXT H710i ATX Mid Tower Case $199.99 @ Amazon Power Supply Corsair RMx (2018) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply $137.99 @ Amazon Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total (before mail-in rebates) $2430.85 Mail-in rebates -$30.00 Total $2400.85 Generated by PCPartPicker 2019-09-22 21:30 EDT-0400
  3. Thanks!, will try but no guarantees as i am a first time custom loop builder
  4. i have a NAS at home, pretty much a bunch of hdds in a closet somewhere and i will be using the 970 for the OS and a couple of games only.
  5. using a founders edition card cause i am installing a water block on it, as for case fans i am using the ones included with the case and 2 more corsair ll120 rgb fans
  6. When the 3950x comes out i was planning on doing a build around it and a 2080ti. I was planning on custom watercooling it. i would love to have some feedback on the parts so far.

Thanks!
  7. note that you will need to do a bios update to have your 3600 in a b450 board
  8. I would go with a i5 9600k if youre not trying yo go over the top but if you have a decent budget i would get the i7 9700k with the aorus pro wifi board, as for cases its really about personal preference and what youre putting into it.
  9. Since my internet is limited and i am running out near the end of this cycle i am wondering how big is ancestors the humankind odyssey? I have looked on just about every site or store that sells it and i cant find anything, help would be appreciated.
  10. I was wondering what would be a better build, i dont have the budget for a 9900k and a 2080ti. I am going to be gaming on a 4k tv, I am going to be building a custom watercooling loop.

  11. I personally have the same CPU and I am very happy with it. I would recommend upgrading your graphics card. I have the RTX 2060 super founders edition (notoverclocked) It is only around 300 cad more then the 1660 and it has very good price to performance, i can run my vive pro vr headset smoothly at only 80% usage.
  12. I am building a pc for my living room TV. Parts List: CPU: Core i7 9700k GPU: Aorus GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER WATERFORCE WB 8G CPU COOLER: Gamdias Choine M1A 240R CASE: DeepCool Matrexx 70 3f MOBO: ASrock Phantom Gaming 7 PSU: Corsair RMx Series RM850x RAM: G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series SSD: Samsung 970 EVO PLUS M.2 250GB HDD: SeaGate Barracuda 1TB Thinking of putting a 360 radiator in the front for the GPU. Thoughts?
  13. I am wanting some help on doing a custom loop for only my gpu (haven't built just planning). https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Graphics-Card/GV-N208SAORUS-WB-8GC#kf My case: deep cool matrexx 70 3f. I was going to put a 360mm radiator in the front and put the included fans on that radiator. (cpu is separate closed loop, put in the top of the case). But i was confused by all the fitting and tubing types out there, what diameter should i use and what fittings should i use? Also do i need a pump or does a radiator come with one.
  14. I have have a core i5 9400 and a RTX 2060 Super. Would over clocking be worth it if i wanted to play games with ray tracing like control when they come out. Would my system be good enough to get the full extent of ray tracing? (core i59400 16 gb ram rtx 2060 super WD Black SN750 gigabyte H370M-D3H)
  15. Yes, I do have 16 GB, as for the settings, i cant go past 8 chunks in minecraft vr without lag on the highest setting, should i lower them?
  16. Hey guys, i was wondering if my cpu was bottlenecking my gpu at all. And if i upgraded to a i5 9600k it would help. I have a i5 9400 and a RTX 2060 Super. All i really do is play VR on my vive pro eye and sometimes the FPS drops on games that aren't exactly that hard to run on most systems.
