Storage: 1TB Samsung 970 EVO SSD, 1TB Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD,& 2x 1TB WD Blue HDD

GPU: ASUS TUF RX6900XT

PSU: EVGA P2 1600W

Case: Corsair 5000D Airflow

Keyboard: Logitech G513 Carbon Clicky Blue

Mouse: Logitech G502 Hero

Monitor: ASUS TUF VG34VQL1B 34" 165Hz

really good looking. I added a 120mm attached to the front panel down below and other fan mounted the same as the front noctua fan. Also what cpu cooler is that? I plan on getting a 4790k too, or should i just leave the stock cooler

Thanks, it's a Noctua U9S cooler. I found the stock fan was not sufficient to cool a 4790K, at least not with the added GPU heat.

 

If you get a Noctua cooler, the easiest way to mount it is use the existing Dell backplate, and attach the Noctua mounting brackets and spacers with some ~16mm m3 screws. Then you don't need to remove the motherboard.

 

Keep in mind the Dell BIOS will not like the included Noctua 92mm fan. That's why I ended up using it as a front intake fan. The fan I put on the cooler is a Delta AFC0912D-PWM. The fan came without a connector, so you'll either want to buy a pack of 4pin fan connectors and then use a 4pin to 5pin Dell fan adapter cable, or you could directly wire the Delta fan to the 5 pin Dell connector if you can find them.

Will perhaps buy a chiller

~Snipped~

You can probably put all those radiators into an A-frame similar to that for the evaporator in an HVAC system to heat a building. 

 

Got rid of the 10980XE?

Long time ago. Rads are in a frame that I built myself.

 

Two of my Octos are faulty though and need to replace. I think 6 out of 53 fans not spinning atm.

Ngl, it's a pretty sick setup. Something I have yet to do as I'm still on the fence over water cooling as air cooling beats it in terms of reliability.

I'm on the verge of getting a chiller. Just thinking if I want to fight condensation, noise and electricity usage.

 

Octos definitely can't be a part of the case, they need to be attached to the base table also.

A chiller setup is something I hardly see here on the forums...last I've really seen them is on LTT videos and those span a couple of years to years ago.

Thanks, I have a few 4pin to 5pin dell fan adapters lying around, will i be okay to use one of them with the stock noctua fan?

Very Good looking, very clean setup, well done.
But... Your radiator is oriented wrong, tubes always on the bottom, never the highest point of the rad.

Wait... you seem to be the one that obviously didn't watch the whole video, their conclusions and recommendations are clear.

I'm also the one offering considerate and helpful advice that is take it or leave it but never the less it is a small effort to help.

You on the other hand are the one being condescending.

One of the more fantastic setups I've seen, that is impressive!

His AIO is fine.

My latest and greatest build yet. My old system was a bit old so i decided to sell almost all of it off and build from scratch. My only issues during setup was the fact this case was not built well for 140mm fans so it was a tight fit in some places and the Msi board cpu holder was so frigen tight that before i got half way down it was bending the board. I have to tak out the latch bracket and bend it to make it not trying to death crush my 13700k cpu and turn my board into a boat. Aside from that the board is preaty good amd properly supports my heavy 3080ti very well. 

 

Inside we have as follows.

 

- 13700k intel cpu

- Msi 790 MPG Edge Wifi

- Founders Edition 3080ti

- Samsung 980 pro 2tb ssd

- 64gb ddr5 5600mhz Kingston Rgb Fury

- LIAN LI Galahad 240 aio with 2 120mm uni fans

- ASUS Thor 1200 watt Psu

- Gamidas Athena M2 Case and chasi fans

- 3 LIAN LI 140mm uni fans

 

[Tan3l6]

Very nice clean build!

I wonder what model are the monitors?

[Dedayog]

Very nice, clean and looks great.

 

Couple questions:

 

1.  How do you game?  Do you actually turn your head to face one screen and type straight forward?  Looks uncomfortable to use a dual monitor setup if you're also gaming.

 

2.  Colors in the PC.  You have 2 "zones" or color setups, it kind of looks chaotic.  Is this how you meant it?

 

3.  Are those Tron discs on the upper shelf?

Nice wallpaper my Dude.  this need to be in the Setups thread though
