Another excellent video Alex! I’m with you - shouldn’t need to fix a product like this just to make it functional.
I have this pc about 1.7 years, but in different configuration (3800x and 2070 turbo super ) i have changed the stock cooler with noctua u9s, added 2 noctua fans 120mm in front and replace the rear vent too with noctua fan.
How are the temps? And around how much was it total? planning to do the exact same thing
I picked one of these up recently at a great price (less than $1500). It's the Strix 3080 OC 2 version Model G15CF and the deal incuded two extra 16GB 3200 Corsair Vengenance Pro DDR4 sticks for a total of 48GB . CPU is the unlocked i7 12700KF (F means the onboard Intel video has been disabled). The bios is made for tweaking pretty much anything you want. They now have a nice tower cooler on the CPU which resolves the overheating issue although it still does run a bit warm under heavy load with stock cooling. I did add a couple of 120mm fans in the front top and bottom to help draw in more air. There are plenty of plugs on the B660 motherboard for them. It runs nice and cool now so much so the rear exhaust fan often shuts down.
What are the fans in the front top and bottom you have gotten? I recently got a same model as yours and, although it has not arrived yet, I am quite concerned about the cooling issue as well.
The ASUS ROG Strix G35DX-DBR770 system comes with an AIO cooler and is a different case.
I swapped the CPU cooler with one with a larger heatsink and installed a front case fan. The temps are quite good now.
What fan model did you use?
I have the DHR780 with 3080 10gb and it's been nothing but great but it's a complet different animal from the one you reviewed here.
I bought this PC and that is not the CPU cooler that was included. It's possible they have changed it since.
But, the CPU idles around 50-55 and runs closer to 80-85 during load, so they brought temps down a bit, but I may still look at getting an AIO.
What cpu?
Yes, I have a tower cooler on mine, but I also have an i7-12700kf.
Was looking at a similar Asus GT15 and first thought was why are the product pictures so BAD. You can barely see in the case of how the fans are setup. Watching this now I know they are hiding how bad the fan setup is.
Thank you for the video
Can you explain to me a little how you put the liquid heatsink on it? Did you take out the motherboard or not?
Good concise infor. ty.
I wanna buy this pc from micro center, and I wanna change the case and cooler. Anything to look out for?
Hello, I would like to ask if you can do a unbuild to the rog pc? This will help a lot.
I got this PC about a week ago and I'm looking at AIO's to get for my cpu. I got the 3080 model so I'm not sure if an AIO will fit on the front. I also read somewhere that have the tubes on top instead of the bottom will cause issues. Should I worry about having the tubes on top?
As long as the cooling block that attaches to the cpu is physically lower than the top ports on the Radiator. That will keep any potential air in the system at the top of the Radiator and not in the cooling block.
I wonder what kinda thermal paste they use as well, on my Asus laptop for example they did a horrible job, I was getting 80c on CPU just in idle, down to 37c now after I repasted everything myself with good thermal paste!
I got the rtx3080 version of this but I need to add fans and modify the case because airflow is terrible. Only has 1 cpu cooler and 1 exhaust fan on the back when it really needs 2 or 3 on the back and some on the side and front and top
My pc came with an AIO for cpu cooling which defo helps with the cpu heat
i have this computer and i have no cooling issues with it, thinking about replacing the motherboard and cpu sometime for some better preformance though.
@@hulex7131 yea there arent alot of fans in it but the case is built to purely rely on airflow, i gamed with it for about a year until i decided i wanted liquid cooling so i switched the case. its still a good case none the less.
hey i was wondering if i can change my cpu to amd 5800x, my motherboard is G10CE
I brought that exact PC and the over heating is a right pain in the ass.
What version did you get? I heard they changed the fans and fixed it up. I'm thinking about buying the rtx 3070 ryzen 5800x version, do you recommend?
Hey, can you possibly show a video of you installing the H100i kinda confused on where to attach the cables
I have same question. Have you got yours done?
hey u figure it out
Can someone recommend some specs for this pc that fit in the case? My temps are high
What's the best cpu I can throw in this that will fit? And what exhaust fan should I upgrade too?
how much was it for the paste and fan?
Mines didn't have that motherboard. I got the B550M-K instead of the B560-G
Bought one to my gf and it’s doing pretty good 👍🏼 good gaming pc. But the one I bought had a cooling fan update. Thank you for the video great information 💯
That's good to hear!
I'm curious if there are any options for water cooler to fit with the rtx3080 config of this machine, or if there are any cpu air coolers that fit within the case. I am planning on adding a noctua intake first else replace the cpu cooler
I just bought this pc and the screened turn white, could anyone help
There’s a cheap version going for 500 rn don’t know if I should get it or not
In my opinion this case looks so nice I really like the design of it.
Its so hard to mount the top is fuckery
Yea same I have the g@5cs
Exactly my thoughts!! But all of this can be fixed. I think they did already address some of the concerns. For instance the CPU fan, I replaced it with a cheap Thermaltake i3 air blower for now and my temps have been acceptable. I am looking into either go with a Noctua and increase the rear fan to 120mm. I upgraded the snot out of it already, I always have stuff lying around that I buy in Prime Days and this weekend Labor Day, Black Friday is coming too. Always on the lookout for deals. Now, quick question for the vid, at around 3:49 I see that you had a drive mounted under the cable tray (where the PSU sits). I have some SATA SSD's with my Steam library and would like to mount these drives somehow. Do you recall that there was this capability?
Hello There. Quick Question. So I got this PC and it works pretty good. Got no Issue with RAM or anything. They only thing is the Temp. Now I'm not that big of a PC Builder so do you think the Problem can be solved if I just install more fans or replace to current fans with better ones?
Hey was that cpu cooler called by Corsair
My ASUS Strix G10CE, I only work the RAM to 2133, I can not raise the speed of the memories, do you know what could be the reason?
What size is the cpu cooler/mounting? I want to replace with a better air cooler. Also any recommendations for air cpu coolers?
Noctua or Arctic
for a budget PC it's doing well with me, I'm happy with it
Thank god I saw this I litterally just bought it😭
i just got one lol
@@fathergally910 I just bought it for my 10
Year old and it’s decent. Just got done setting it up and she’s happy 😊
You guys have any problems with it? Temperature low?
@@goluckygirl1 hows the temperature?
I bought one of these a few months back. 60-70 deg. at idle then up and over 100 under load. Honestly ridiculous but I wound up getting a noctua cpu cooler and threw a few extra fans in for good measure. Been running at 45-50 deg. ever since. That stock cpu cooler is absolute garbage and my thermal paste looked even worse than in this video. Minus the cpu cooler it is a great system overall though.
It's an excellent system. I disagree with some of this review. It should be a oriented around being able to aquire an awesome performing system with small modification. So if you want a kickass system that's not too going to break the bank and this is all you gotta do. Get this pre-built system and replace the stock cpu cooling solution with a liquid cooled system and presto!! You have an impressive pc gaming computer.
The low inital cost of this system is one of the main reasons why your
where did you put your fans?
@@nicklausmikkelsen3597”low initial cost” not for me. I bought it for around 1.25k$ (converted). And i got a 3060 after the 5700xt from the prebuilt broke and new ram, which cost me around 500 dollars converted. Now i’m planning to get front fans and a noctua cpu cooler to decrease temps…. Goes to 90*c when playing med-end games
I only added a single case fan to draw air in up front. That was enough to get the temps in the low 20's while idle, that and larger CPU cooler.
Anyone attempt a tower swap with this?
mine came with a fat heatsink, kinda explains why my fans were not like what you were experiencing. at idle it stayed around 50 C. under a load (END GAME HOI4) it went up to 60 C
I’ve seen that these ASUS prebuilts come with AIOs now so that’s something
That’s great to hear
Just got this a few days ago but with different specs, i7 12700f with the 3070. This pc gets really hot and noisy, it gets around 50-60 when idle and when I’m on apex lowest setting its get around 80-90.which sucks really bad,I even changed the cpu fans to the be quiet and reapply some thermal paste. And nothing has changed at all. Anyone have this issue and should i change to aio water cooler
I under volted the cpu altough I have the r7 5800x but that fixed it for me in high load in games maxed settings I get 60-65 degrees maximum on the cpu so try looking in too undervolting the cpu too around 1.2 volts
I have the G15CF version. 3070 + i7 12700KF. It has a huge heatsink for the cpu by default. No issues with temperatures, even during gaming. Dont know why yours have a crapy one…
what size max rear exhaust fan?
How you plug the power button back to the normal position? This cable is super short please answer add a cooler and i want to put everything back
???
I noticed that when i added the 2 front fans in my pc. i unscrew the 2 bolts that hold the power button in place and find the cable route and realased more of it.
I bought one of these from microcenter with a 3080 in it I removed the 92mm fan and put a cooler master Argb 92mm in it and 3 lian li sl120’s a gpu support a AMD wraith prism and new ssd drives I put Argb heat sinks on my ram and nvme ssd the support is Argb to and just got Argb cable extensions so I’ve effectively made this crap pc a absolute beast I run it with the glass panel off most of the time mine came with 32gb of dual channel 2 I’ve only got 1650$ invested ito it I got it OB at microcenter so I got a banging pc for the low honestly it just needed a little tlc mine came with no peripheral devices or even a power cable but I got it insanely cheap she works fine though the hdd had been removed to but I plopped in a 2tb sata ssd it stays really cool now
How much did spend on the PC before the installs? Looking to get one from Microcenter for 1400$ new but I'm hesitant cause I don't have any experience in PC modifying as this one would be my first PC ever.
This is the specs of said PC
ASUS ROG Strix GA15DK Gaming PC Platinum Collection AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7GHz Processor; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6; 32GB DDR4-3200 RAM; 1TB SSD+1TB HDD
Hi it was a really helpful review. However, I have already purchased it and it had been almost a year. Like all other G15DK owners I faced the same heat probs and my major concern was the cooling system. I would really like to see how I can fix this system. I have a Ryzen 5 5600X and Nvidia RTX 3060 graphics card without a doubt as I also have mentioned it in your video they didn't do a bad job in putting some good components into the system but its a waste because the way they put it. I wanna know if case swapping with cooling upgrades and also the PSU upgrade might solve the issue. Main issue: I play fortnite competitive on a 240hz ASUS TUF monitor aiming for a smooth and steady fps of 240 but it seems to be impossible since I experience fps spikes even after following all the best settings possible both in game and the pc settings as well as the Graphics settings.
are you air cooling or liquid cooling
@@marcuswang9159 Hello There. Quick Question. So I got this PC and it works pretty good. Got no Issue with RAM or anything. They only thing is the Temp. Now I'm not that big of a PC Builder so do you think the Problem can be solved if I just install more fans or replace to current fans with better ones?
I think yours is messed up because mine doesn't go above 50°
What size AIO did you use?
I got the Gaming PC ROG Strix G15 (G15CE-1170KF059W) RTX 3070 and with no apps or games opened the temp is always on 100 degree. Got it yesterday and after a few minutes the pc shut down and went into a safe mode. Really depressing and its just frustrating that the mf dont care about this, I really do not know what to do, especially cuz Im not that good in all these pc stuff ...
That's nuts. Are the fans spinning at all? I just bought the 3080 variant and it stays cool until I boot up a game. Going to replace the cpu and exhaust coolers with Noctuas and hopefully that will help.
Anyone know how to reconnect the power button once you’ve taken the front panel of the case off? I took it off to install fans and now I can’t reconnect it
Push it all the way in until the button black part is all in
for the ones with a budget of 3k like me id change the gpu to a 4060ti the cpu cooler to an nzxt kracken and update the ram to 64gb of fury
What fans would you recommend? Or is the liquid cooler enough for this PC
If you’re on a budget, a liquid cooler should do the job by itself without adding fans. 👍🏻
vetroo v5 is massive but fits perfectly def helped me and only $25
My legion t5 with i9 and 3070 had it's cpu at 100c and vrm over 100c. At least it throttled, making my fps go from 90 to 30!
This is why I don't recommend any prebuild's from oem's
Can this case support a 360 aio cooler??
NO big NO
What cheap cpu cooler should I get for the pc?
Thermalright pa 120 se, if it fits this case for a cheap but good big air tower cooler. Maybe get a single tower one if you have a tighter budget
what these companies don't realize is that a hot CPU that doesn't crash is perfectly fine when in reality, being over 90 degrees for any extended period of time WILL damage the CPU, silicon is extremely fragile and should not run at 100 degrees EVER
How difficult was it to mount the aio to the case
These systems are well over the $2k mark in Canada. It crazy to feel like you didn't spend enough on what seems to be a mid-entry level PC.
Especially when it's marketed as a hobbyist PC.
lower your processing power management to like 98% it will fix the cpu throttling
how and where do you do that?
@@torginson9022 power options then on the plan your on go to advanced then you will see maximum process until lower it from 100 to 99-98

I bought this pc on micro center for 1300 but mine has a amd 5600x, x2 16gb 1tb ssd and hdd, and a 3070. Yea i also had the heating problem with does shit coolers. I'm new into pc building and it does sucks that i have to fix these problems that shouldn't have to be there. I was playing nier and genshin and the cpu was at 80c and the gpu was at 50c im assuming it was because of the hear from the cpu anyway i was just looking for coolers and fans recommendation lol
Was looking to get this exact PC from Microcenter also for 100$ more. Would you still suggest it? Did you do any upgrades and if so what? I'm probably less PC savvy than you but I do have a buddy that can help me with replacing things.
@@brandonenke2680 nope I don't recommend it, i was pretty much scammed the only good thing this pc has are the cpu and gpu, and I'm not a pro at pc building, see if your friend helps you out building it or if you buy a prebuilt show him the parts it has
@@anthonytavarez7758 I've decided to go with a Skytech Chronos instead. Has better components and no heating issues. I appreciate the reply my guy

I have this PC, but the cpu cooler is better than what this video depicts.
i use that pc
How much temperature is your CPU?
What cpu cooler did you use with that case
It's the Corsair H100i Elite
@@SpecterTech how did you scrw that cooler in?
@@SpecterTech was wondering how you screwed it in? i only see u screw the top 1s in
nvm i figured it out. i just used a big philips screw driver and kept twisting and turning until the holes were big enough. they eventually lined up. u could prob use a drill to make the wholes bigger as well(and alot quicker prob). the cooler comes with washers so make sure the hole isnt bigger then that. the holes match up a little better when your putting the hoses at the top. it took me a whole day to put this in(bc i took alot of breaks to play games on my main pc).
5 problems i ran into. 1 holes in front. 2 mounting the pump (but only bc i didnt realise my mounting bracket on the back had fallen out so i was wondering for awhile, these mounting holes r really big compared to the screws). 3 i forgot the hub comes with sticky ahesives stickers instead of me shoving the hub in with the power supply at the bottom. 4 the cable management. i had to remove the 24connector cable and the cable below it and redirect it to put the fans in. so alot of cutting zipties and i always keep bread ties handy.also was a little tough to close the backside panel afterwards. and 5 if it doesnt come on after everything is plugged in its probably because the connector that goes to the power button isnt on properly. put pc on sturdy box(i used coolant box) connect everything on bottom and put front panel half way in(bottom half). with top of front panel half way open use 1 finger (in from side) to guide and push in the tiny power cord into the front panel near the power button( inbetween those 2 plastic clips.) if it goes in easy but falls right back out easily turn it 90 degrees and push it in. its looks almost square but 1 side is easy push in and easy fall out and the other side isnt. ull know form pressing the power button on the outside if its in correctly. hope this helps
I mean, the techs were not wrong, and they are just doing their jobs... Rather than posting their responses and implying a target at them, maybe push more at ASUS themselves. I agree at that cost, those fans shouldn't be in there, but also, a help desk tech can't change the companies whole manufacture suite. Hahaha.
Can I get it for free🎉
A bitter reviewer 😂😅
Will this pc be ok for fighting games? I bought it specifically for that. So far tekken runs fine. I hope it stays that way
