Question: Why so many fans?

[Queen Chrysalis]

A 5600 really does not need all of those fans or a big radiator.  You can get a lot of this stuff much cheaper, most of your budget is just getting wasted on aesthetic stuff.  If you went with much cheaper versions of these fans and radiators, it would still work about the same, and still look pretty cool, it would just look a little bit different but would cost less than half of the price.

So you're spending a couple hundred on fans and like 100 extra for a razer sticker on the glass but end up with a gaming pc that is like at best 1000$ in terms of performance.

 

I'd really reconsider here as for the money you can get a VERY good gaming and editing rig instead of this mid range 1000$ system with like 1000$ of rgb tax.

You can even get cheap stuff with RGB that still looks pretty cool without paying any more than non-RGB.  I'd really call it the Corsair / NZXT / Lian Li / etc tax.

Fair enough. I should say premium rgb tax. Or brand name tax as the lian li razer edition is heaps more for what is literally a razer sticker on the front :p.

Well then don't. Be the good husband and get her a non ripoff system. She is buying a show system not a performant system.

 

If she wants to looks those can be achieved by more budget options the o11 case can totally stay just get the normal one.

 

The 3060ti is also a bad gaming card to buy as the price is very high and it's competition is a rx6800xt which destroys that card.

 

A over double as fast cpu for editing can EASILY be had.

Ok so what is the question then?

 

Do you want build advice or just unifan setup advice?

 

Because unifans just need to connect to the lian li controller.

It is the double of price for the RTX 3060 ti, Brazil is almost the double when they import pc parts

You dont have the included controller? Lian Li includes ST120 packs with their controller. Just plug the 10 fans across 2 controller and stick the fan leads to the motherboard while you put the controller PCB on the back of the motherboard tray.
