amazing video dude, just watched techsource's latest video $1500 as you both have similar builds when it comes to white builds, he was about to get the rx6800xt but instead he got rx6950xt just about the same price glad you're video has been recommended 😊
I have this case and the 140mm front lian li fans that come included stay around 620 rpm even at idle. I adjusted the fan curve for them many times and the rpm doesn't change even though the motherboard temp isn't even reaching the temp that the 620 rpm corresponds to. When I set the custom fan curve to max, then the lian li fans operate at the max rpm. Otherwise, it seems like they either operate at around 50% or 100% and not lower or in between. I am not using any third party software, just using the bios. Anyone know what might be causing the problem?
@poweredbychris I just built it!! Took me 9 hours hahahha I wanted to die cause I kept redoing some parts, the artic freezer 3 240mm BARELY fit they almost hit its own head piece :))))
Can you fit a thick 240 in the front? Does the shield for the power supply come off? I want to use this to hold 3 240 rads and a pump. $65 seems like a good price for rad housing. Ty
Hi my front fans are working but no rgb. How do you daisy chain cuz when i did it i still ended up with 2 ends that have 4 pins coming out and i plugged those into chasis fans 1 and 2
That's only fan power. You need to connect the led connections together by daisy chaining and plugging into a 5v argb header. You can also use a led splitter
I went with the MSI PRO B650M-A and this case, it has the main x16 slot one space down and it limits my gpu airflow, I may try to drill the rivets out and remove the PSU shroud, although it may be structural for the case.
it's really beautiful, got the mini version and in only 6 months the fans on the front are already going yellow pretty badly. It's an issue across ALL lian li rgb devices.
@@poweredbychris you're welcome. Lian li is overhyped and overpriced , being where it is because of redditors. I got the Lian Li case because I was in a hurry and it was the most affordable thing i could get in the shortest time. I'm going to change the front fans for some Arctic 140 A-rgb.
microcenter sells a powerspec prebuilt with this case right now on sale for 690$ 5800X3D RX 7600 16gb ram 500g ssd 650W I had bought one for 700$ awhile back and added another stick of 16gb, and I just put in a RX 7800XT, depending on what i can sell the 7600 for it might end up as 1,000 in total.
Looking at buying this case for an upcoming project. Would u recommend it, like in terms of thermal temps and cable management when building. Thanks :)
Motherboard software. Fans must be daisy chained. I used a led splitter, but it's not always necessary since arg fans have an extra piggy back led cable to link the fans together
how did you manage to pick the exact same motherboard, ssd, ram, cpu and cooler I picked for my build? great looking pc and I can't wait to build one just like it!
I wish the mesh version was available when I built mine. Id like to see the fancy rgb fans I put in mine haha. But even with the solid front, the cooling has been phenomenal. Ryzen 7 5800x, MSI Gaming X RX 5700xt
They fans need to be daisy chained together and plugged into an led header on the mb. Then you can change through the bios or do the RGB software for your specific mb.
@@poweredbychris thanks for your help, I just got that case as the one purchased before doesn’t fit my gpu even thought it says it should. I had purchased those thermalright fans as well and was wondering if I can daisy chain them with the included case fans?
@@zacharybaas1553 Yes you should be able to. The only issue would be having enough length. I bought a led splitter so I used it, but it might not have been necessary.
@@alfinal3845 just answering a question Yes. This will also depend on the size of your GPU and the position of the GPU slot on the motherboard. Best bet to not use bigger than a 2 slot card
@poweredbychris i use asus dual rx6600 i think it's a not a big card, and my wifi card is tp link i forgot the model but it's small too, maybe it will fit. Thank you for your answer😀
Nice build! I have the exact same case but idk how to change the rgb color on the front fans, I download the motherboard software but it still the same can you help me?
I would make sure they are plugged into the 5v RGB header on the motherboard (not the 12v) and try changing the lights from the bios. Maybe try another header if you have them daisy chained
Hey! You think the Thermalright Frozen Prism 240 AIO would have no problem fitting at the top of this case instead of an air cooler? Or will I need to get low profile RAM? I’m looking at the T Force Delta RGB
So hear me out on this, I have a super high-end monitor, 4K 165 HZ. I run a 3080 which I know is not going to push that monitor at all, it might hit 100 in non-graphically intense games at most. It's currently confined in a cooler Master ITX case. I want something a little bigger that's got better air flow so that way I'm not stroking out my 3080. Instead of thermal throttling a higher card, would a case like this be a optimal trade-off between size and breathability? My main concern is I don't want to buy any new parts. It's just simply not in the budget. Can I just take the parts out of my case now and put them into this case with zero issues? I'm not looking for particular brand compatibility, I want to know can you put an ITX system in here?
@@PokemanTrucker To answer your question yes you can put your parts in this case, but I don't think that will make much difference. Your probably better off undervolting and increasing fan curve.
@@poweredbychris So the increased air volume isn't sufficient to see a decrease in temperature. Got it. Thank you. I will attempt to figure out this undervolting
I didnt use a controller. I used a 4-way led splitter for the fans and plugged that into the 5v rgb header on the motherboard. If the fans are arbg then you could possibly daisy chain them together and do the same thing without a splitter
hey i'm about to get this case for my new build. the option was this or the pop mini air by Fractal. this 1 costs half the price of the fractal but i find it disturbing that the fans that comes with the case mounted behind the brackets. do you know if its possible to mount them outside? so they will be behinds the front cover?
Good question. Unfortunately I wont be able to confirm that as the pc is no longer in my possession. Sorry. If you have a micro center near you may be able to go check.
Depends what you are using it for. If your work loads requires a lot of writes then probably not the best. But as a gaming drive as this is a gaming build then it's perfectly fine.
@poweredbychris oh wow much bigger then I thought and way bigger then most of them. Didn't expect that my bad. Males me feel better maybe I should get it then for my strix. It should just fit. You may have just made my decision finally lol. Was between the 011 air mini and this.
Hi. I used a 4 way splitter to one of the 5v argb headers on the motherboard, and controlled either through the bios or the asrock polychrome software. It not as good as the some of the other manufactures but works okay.
@@poweredbychris Ah i see thank you very much. Turns out my preinstalled case fans, CPU fan, and rear fan which I bought, all are ARGB (3 pin right). This means i can buy a 4 way ARGB splitter and connect it to the 3 pin on the motherboard. When i plug all those 4 fans to the 3 pin splitter i can sync them correct?
@@grantingria4324 The fans I purchased did not come with a controller. I plugged them into the kraken aio's splitter cable that connects to the pump block.
Very nice! Planning a similar build myself. Had some hesitation regarding the volume of this case. Do you get good temps and enough airflow? Easy to build in?
This PC was sold after building. Unfortunately I didn't test temps This case has plenty of air flow though can't image thermals would be an issue even under heavy load. You could add additional fans at the top which I did not do. Hope this helps and I'll be sure to test temps in future builds.
I really like this case. Simple and good looking and not too big. Perfect. Would love to do build on it.
