Hey guys, while it's not shown in the video, Linus did in fact apply thermal compound to the cpu/cooler. The temperatures in the video are correct, though in further testing we did observe a ~5 degree drop in cpu temp with the front panel removed.
My first case was the Azza 240 Titan and man, azza makes cheap cases but they make them well. They also seem to specialize in making very weird design choices lol
Actually, I think black power cables work well in that build, as they'll disappear into the background, letting your other components shine. Not everyone who is working on a play needs to be seen by the audience.
Would've liked to hear more about that cpu temp. Since front panel on/off barely made a difference. Was it the cpu? AIO? case? A combination of the 2/3? Did you check the cpu in another case or another cpu in this case? Case looks sick but with such an open design you guys seemed to brush off a 90 degree cpu rather easily.
@@patrickclark3455 AIO looked brand new and they come with pre applied thermal paste. Bad pump maybe? It's really weird, my 5900x with 240mm AIO runs at 75 degrees under full load
@@jesse_f7177 No it wasn't as there will be water in the pump . What IS wrong is when the pump is ABOVE the radiator causing an air lock in the aio pump.
Its an issue with 5800x, I have one and noticed my temps being super toasty. After looking into it, I found AMD formatted the dye in a unique way (compared to the rest of the 5000 cpus ) that makes them get super hot even under excellent cooling.
The case has a purple-ish tinge to it in order to delay or even completely eliminate yellowing over time. (Purple neutralizes out yellow, and vice versa, so as the purply-white yellows, it'll just neutralize to a true white with less noticeable yellow tinge over time.)

I do not understand why people think open cases are more of a dust problem. I have many regular cases, they get full of dust, and I must open them and then clean them. I also have an open air "case", and it gets dust, but I don't have to open it to get the dust out! Just pop an air can at it every now and then mostly.
@@JackMott True. If it takes 30 seconds to clean off the dust, dust gathering somewhat faster isn't an issue. Even then people tend to overestimate the impact dust has on performance. As long as the cooling fins have air going through them, it's gonna be fine. Having some dust particles on the components won't thermal throttle or break them. Dust really is an issue with some compact ITX cases that are screwed tightly down. Those get their tiny spaces clogged fast, and are a pain to clean.
@@JackMott If you have a case with dust filters then most of the dust won't come in to the case. Night and day difference compared to the one shown in this video.
@@user-lz5vh9bb5w I guess there exist cases set up with the right air pressure and great dust filters where this happens but I've not managed it in my life so far! heh. But even then you gotta clean the filters periodically.
As someone who used to powdercoat professionally, I can tell you that when I was inspecting finished products, I learned really quickly that you want to have 4300k overhead lights and wear black or white clothing. Doing a gold wheel face for a BMW 335i twice because it looked too orange and realizing you were wearing a red shirt after the second time is PAINFUL.
But none of the other white products or white paper looked like that. There are many off color white products and paints that claim are white but are not. You don't realize it until you put it next to something that is really pure white.
3:25 as far as I'm aware, they provide this so that you can run high resolution drawing tablets (for graphic designers.. Either way it's intended for graphic design and modeling and high resolutions.. For the most part) and use your dedicated graphics card to output to the thunderport.
Sure it might have a negative impact on dust. But also, wouldn't cleaning this case be 10x easier? Just pop open the flaps and let loose with the can of air.
I would even argue that with the Radiator as Intake and the GPU as Output you should still get good thermals and less dust, since most of it should get stuck in the mesh filter
Still looks pink asf in the end even tho he switched to a grey hat, plus if it was the reflection, that would act to the piece of paper and gpu he compared the color to as well.
I built my current case as an experiment (i.e. it looks like hell) a couple years ago and it has three hinged sides which the side panel (which is an air filter and the primary intake) holds on via cabinet latches. Works well as far as allowing access to things easily, but it's a little floppy when open so I have to really lay it flat for convenience. Thinking my next one (when I upgrade my computer) will have the components mounted on a removable board that slides out the back of the case, making electrical contact via some pogo pins.
I bought the white version a few days ago at €79.99. It’s arctic white (no pink hue here). It is unique, georgeous and commands attention with the right addition of discrete ARGB. The ventilation is fantastic, even with the front plate in place. My CPU (Ryzen 5 3600) idles at room temperature and my GPU (RTX 3060 Zotac White AMP) idles at 45C. I didn’t notice any crazy temp here and we’re currently experiencing a Summer heat wave here ! I wish I could post some pictures here because it’s just sick !
It would've been nice to see CPU temps with a tower cooler, as the tower wouldnt be pressed right up against the solid front panel, and might be able to draw in air from the side.
@@japaneserequired6314 Not necessarily, usually not using thermal paste increases temps by between 10-15C, though it may be more or less if the surface is very rough or flat. So for a cool system it can actually be fine.
@@swecreations .....wow. If by cool, you mean not powered on, then sure. And if 10-15c difference (most likely after it has throttled all the way back to early single core celeron levels of output) is no biggie for you, i really think you should avoid commenting. Also, apparently they did actually apply the paste, there's a tiktok short covering that, it was done during the scene cut - temps dropped after few minutes, so it's the shitty case design combined with poor contact due to decade old mounting tech.
For anyone wondering about the temps, if you look closely and pause at: 8:56, there was no pre-applied thermal paste on the AIO block and he didn't apply thermal paste on the CPU itself, no wonder he had 90C+, he forgot to apply thermal paste to the CPU. With the Thermal paste he would've been gotten much lower temps I believe.
He didn't forget the 5800x just runs hot by nature and if that's a first batch 5800x(which it probably is) than they were plagued with some QX issues. By design it still runs exactly within spec at 90 degrees under load so it doesn't really matter in the end.
very interesting case! I would love to make a full build with that myself! Also, that supposed "pink hue" I'm pretty sure is the diffused reflection of Linus' pink beanie with all that hot stage lighting around him. haha
@@galindomenafrancisco3187 They re-use parts and the AIO seemed re-used since there was no plastic shroud protecting the coldplate.. so the pre-applied thermal paste is most likely gone
I watched that part also in slow motion and froze it there and you see Linus's finger reflect on the cold plate or he didn't remove the protective plastic film protecting the pre-applied thermal paste.That wouldn't of been the first time. LOL
"After mounting, you can see a tube of thermal paste on the desk that wasn't there before mounting. They probably cut the application. I wish they investigated the CPU temps more though. 90 seems too high." -slek120
That CPU temp doesn't sound right all. I'd remount the cooler although given that it's using the weird clip mounting mechanism it might not get better. Really shouldn't be at 90 degrees though
@@iPhone5244 I thought I was seeing things. I thought maybe it just didn't get put in video but now I see others saying this, I think my initial thought is valid. I swear he put the AIO bare back on CPU.
"M.2 has gotten so affordable that you could take 2TB of storage with all NVME" *glances over my 1TB 5400rpm HDD* Me: You're doing great buddy. It's okay, you can go whenever you want to.
Azza should release a version with those panels made of curved glass, that would be sick ❤️ Because with the metal panels you can't see the beautiful clean internals
I wish the outer shell side panels fully enclosed instead of leaving that large gap. Also would have been cool if the front panel also folded and part of the whole outer shell.
Wasn't it very obvious why the gap is there? That gap is like 90% of the designs cool factor! Without it all you have is a line for no apparent reason that looks out of place.
That case reminds me of our first home PC, it was an XT clone with 512K RAM and the desktop cabinet swung open 90° over the rear I/O area with plenty of space for external cables to remain plugged in during inside access. Thermals weren't a problem back then and airflow was pulled through gaps in the floppy drives by the pressure produced by the 80mm PSU fan.
Please test the effects of a running psu fan pulling air from the inside. Remembering on the lack of airflow under the GPU from fast front fans in the other video. That could be interesting.
The pink hue is very likely a result of colour reflections from the pink beanie combined with the bright production lights. You can achieve this same effect with any bright colour/light and a white sheet.
Linus, I don't know if you're aware, but White is a really hard color to match because it'll show of the hues of the dyes used to make it, making no two white products look alike. I have the white Corsair Carbide 500R, and I'm glad I didn't try to source white components for it. I'm surprised after ten years that the plastic trim pieces still match the powered coated side panels. (Not complaining, as I like the case and will probably keep it when building a new PC.)
You 100% will be recirculating warm air from around the sides of that fan rather than sucking cool air through it. It's the same fans people mount in their windows. Either the fan needs moved further away, or there should be a shroud around it. Edit: In fact, this guy has scienced the shit out of a comparable arrangement: ruclips.net/video/1L2ef1CP-yw/видео.html
Yeah, the 5800x runs hot. hot hot! I had mine at 90C under load as well. What I did to fix it was to run the fans at a higher speed and this is also with a 360mm AIO (deepcool castle with arctic mx5 paste). The only other thing was to manually clock the card at 4.6GHz (46 multiplier), disable PBO, and then set voltage to 1.292V manually. I then got a max of 83C after this, which IMO is still kinda high. I also tried to mess with the PPT/TDC/EDC Limits and also the voltage curve settings, but that did not help much unfortunately on my end only manually setting the voltage and clock speed helped. I think others have had better luck with the limit settings though. I like the processor, but I am disappointed about the thermals as its a big issue. I understand it performs great, but its a bit confusing how the 5800x is praised as much as it is. I have also read that the processor with more cores, the 5900x, runs cooler, woah. Maybe AMD can release some better settings for motherboard manufacturers to default the 5800x to. I understand that at first thermal paste wasn't applied in the video, but then after applying it the temps were still high. Excerpt from official response from LTT (this is further down in the comment section): "A liberal dousing of NT-H2 and Prime95 showed a 90.6deg @ 4.4Ghz with the front panel ON, with a drop to 85.5 degrees and a slight bump to 4.48GHz with the front panel OFF. This confirms that the front panel does limit cooling performance somewhat." I would appreciate a video maybe shedding some light on these processor temps or some recommendations for those of us that are experiencing high temperatures. 85C with an open case and a 360mm AIO under load is nuts. Glad you saw how hot the 5800x gets first hand.
@@nemti1712 True. I just find it funny. In my opinion, I think the 2080Ti holds its own very well even after 3 years. It’s basically on par with a 3070, give or take depending on the title. Not including ray tracing, obviously.
I have that exact same RTX 3080 and I have it on a PCIe 3.0 riser with no negative effects. I get the same performance plugged directly into my Z690 board. One note is that you have to manually force PCIe 3.0 in the bios or it won't work at all.
Honestly, I'd be tempted to run it on it's side with the gap at the top. The front IO looks sharp on the bottom edge, easy to open if you need access to anything, plus all that heat can just go right out the top. You can even flip the sides open for that open-air ventilation for maximum speeds.
DO A VERTICAL CASE. Gpu hangs vertically. Ports are on top under awesome access pannel, airflow is awesome and great for the left side of the desk. Segotep makes cheap ones.
The "Build Redux" sponsor for sure sounds cool, however Im able to select a RTX3070 for 790$ for the build, and there is no warning of out of stock delays or anything before checking out... Which makes me worry that the hardware they list isnt actually in their stock/offering that price seems insanely too good to be true... Maybe its all good and I'm too used to never seeing these cards below 1100$ or its too good to be true.... Some promt like "Your selected hardware is available immediately" or "Hardware may cause delays" would be helpful.
They are a PC build boutique and can source these components straight from the manufacturers. They literally advertise this saying you only have to pay MSRP for the components. They will have them in stock.
Didn't Thermaltake do this a few years ago? Although Thermaltake has made a mediocre version of just about every product imaginable, so that's not a surprise.
The USB-C Display Port combo works great for Wacom and similar Pen Displays as Thunderbolt is usually either incompatible or depending on circumstances can actually damage the pen display. Not something you want to risk on a 1000$+ item.
somebody has already probably pointed this out, but in my experience with the 5800x helping a friend build his pc and based off my own research, it does run rather hot compared to other zen 3 cpus. usually around 85-90C.
It definitely does. I have one in my rig but I went overkill on the cooling for it because of that reason. Idle it runs at 40 degrees, and playing a heavy game on high settings it hits 60 degrees. Ekwb coolers are fantastic for hot running cpus like the 5800x.
@@stevenxw no problem! I have the Ekwb AIO Elite 360mm cooler. Comes with 6 vardar evo argb fans for a push pull configuration or use them in your case elsewhere, a fan hub, extra thermal paste and the brackets needed for intel or amd processors. Thing is beautiful and works great. Make sure to set good fan curves for good airflow through your motherboard software or any other softwares you might use, and good pump rpm depending on your cpu temp and it will stay nice and cool. Also depends on if it’s overclocked or not. Mine is overclocked by my motherboards AI software. Sits around 4.6 to 4.8 ghz
1st case I built myself from scratch had this awesome door style. Well kinda, it went all the way from top to bottom and hinged in the middle with a overlap of about 1mm and once you lifted it all the way open it could fold it into a square and stayed in place a top of the case.
This is a GENIUS way of directing airflow while at the same time having testbench like openess. Sad that dust will essentially create a metropolis in it but... hey thermals better than ambient air?
I want to bet that the "pink" white linus was seeing was the reflection of his beany on that kind of matte surface. Try different beanie color under the same studio lights.
It doesn't appear that you have the AIO pump connected to the correct header, the pump header is right below the 24 pin connector labeled SYS_FAN5_PUMP. This could be the reason why you're only getting partial cooling yet still stuck in the 90s. The CPU_OPT you're connect to is specifically for CPU pump fans, not the pump itself.
azza has always been making very unique looking cases, i've been aware of their existence for like the past 11 years or sth, i remember exactly a decade ago i saw a case from azza that was just a massively big case that looked like a standard one but way taller, literally had room for 2 computers. A mini itx (iirc) form factor one in the top compartment.
I use a type c monitor with my MacBook so I can see why this can be useful, you not only get display but you also get a bunch USB ports which are more accessible since they are on the monitor
I think the pink hue is because they may coated with red oxide for corrosion resistance. Personally I prefer Termaltake core P3 snow with temperd glass kit. More expensive and MUCH heavier
the way you are handling the AIO reassures me that I need to not worry so much.. when i tried to instal mine the first time i treated it like it was a balloon
I have a different theory on the case. The case isn't closed off (made worse by the fan configuration I think but not 100% on this part in particular since I have a noctua air cooler) so the hot air behind the radiator isn't being pulled so much by the back case fan as being pushed by the 3 fans in front of the radiator. Honestly thought they would've kept the smoke machine around for this.
You get the bulkiness of a tower case with the drawbacks (dust, noise) from a open case. Though it looks cool. It’s for people who would mount 24” wheels on a Honda.
Those temps are caused by 2 things. You forgot the thermal paste and Gigabyte uses way too much voltage on stock settings. I have a 5800x and their b550 vision and my temps were really high until I undervolted and overclocked. It's also weird that Gigabyte's x570 aero doesn't have thunderbolt but their b550 vision does. The boards look almost identical otherwise.
14:27 this case frickin awesome, BUT, wish front I/O was on top of case…..or at least towards top instead of on bottom since makes plugging in & reaching “harder” if located anywhere other than right/left side of desk by you. Definitely would go mesh front panel, and also wish the back had some kind of mesh as well (maybe won’t be an issue…..but open air cases, can get quite DUSTY from experience). But, very nice looking case….ME LIKEY, and wanna see version 2. Great build Linus!👍🏻👍🏻

I watched that part also in slow motion and froze it there and you see Linus's finger reflect on the cold plate or he didn't remove the protective plastic film protecting the pre-applied thermal paste.That wouldn't of been the first time. LOL
"After mounting, you can see a tube of thermal paste on the desk that wasn't there before mounting. They probably cut the application. I wish they investigated the CPU temps more though. 90 seems too high." -slek120
nope, linus made a short adressign this
That CPU temp doesn't sound right all. I'd remount the cooler although given that it's using the weird clip mounting mechanism it might not get better. Really shouldn't be at 90 degrees though
Yeah my 5800x gets to 85 degrees max on a Prime95 stress test with a 240mm AIO, I'd expect a fair bit better from a 360mm AIO
Yeah. But it is nice to see the case was not the cause.
There’s no thermal paste
And remount the rad, so the tubes are always full of water..... could have air in them when they are on top like that.
@@iPhone5244 I thought I was seeing things. I thought maybe it just didn't get put in video but now I see others saying this, I think my initial thought is valid.
I swear he put the AIO bare back on CPU.

Me: You're doing great buddy. It's okay, you can go whenever you want to.
I havent seen any significant price changes in over a year.
Kudos to the editor for the pink tinge on the end card.
Azza should release a version with those panels made of curved glass, that would be sick ❤️
Because with the metal panels you can't see the beautiful clean internals
16:55 I can't tell you linus how stoked my ears were to hear a point 4 difference just amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the machine is on fire
> OW! Alright back up 0.1
I died lmao
Would've helped if they didn't forget to use thermal paste lol.
I wish the outer shell side panels fully enclosed instead of leaving that large gap. Also would have been cool if the front panel also folded and part of the whole outer shell.
Wasn't it very obvious why the gap is there? That gap is like 90% of the designs cool factor! Without it all you have is a line for no apparent reason that looks out of place.
@@Bob-of-Zoid No, the appeal is the very easy access. Plenty of cool factor without needing an obvious flaw that allows dust or liquid to settle in.
It wouldn't need to be a straight horizontal line. It could be diagonal or even sth like interlocking puzzle pieces.
I love that case, but it definitely needs the mesh front

@@swecreations its preapplied on the cooler
@@Arslan9214 No, look at 8:56, there's nothing on the cooler
Glad to know it actually has a pink hue. I initially thought my display color settings were off.
I love how the end card has magenta hue on white background, reflecting the case's off-white colour
That case was made for vertical mounting! Damn that looks good with the opening
That's a great idea...
Introducing Lambo Door Case!
I'd say a tesla tbh

@@Kasmuller ye
Ooooo scissor switch doors would be even cooler.
lol reminds me more of a Delorian winged door case but sure that to.
I love Linus' face when he says "neat case" after realizing there is cooling problems with the cpu. LOL 🤣16:06
There is no cooling problem with the case, theres a problem with linus being forgetful and not putting thermal paste on the AIO block.
He forgot to apply thermal paste 8:56
@Chillzone Gaming why you spam whole comment section?
That case reminds me of our first home PC, it was an XT clone with 512K RAM and the desktop cabinet swung open 90° over the rear I/O area with plenty of space for external cables to remain plugged in during inside access. Thermals weren't a problem back then and airflow was pulled through gaps in the floppy drives by the pressure produced by the 80mm PSU fan.
Please test the effects of a running psu fan pulling air from the inside. Remembering on the lack of airflow under the GPU from fast front fans in the other video. That could be interesting.
Silicon Valley reference in a LTT title, never thought I’d see the day.
This seems pretty easy to open up & upgrade, but what about transporting it?
Open the wings and let it fly from the window?
That's a problem for DHL to take care of
@@flanker0ne With enough powerful vents it has its own engines for liftoff
@@stellisch I wouldn't let DHL to handle something like this. You know it won't end well
the magnets...
That pink hue on the outer case is a great in-between of the white components and those metallic accents on the motherboard.
I really like this build, the cooler in particular. Such a minimalistic design and very cool rgb.
"If you look at it, the case isn't that white."
Uh huh, my dirty scratched screen protector says its brownish but that could be me
The pink hue is very likely a result of colour reflections from the pink beanie combined with the bright production lights. You can achieve this same effect with any bright colour/light and a white sheet.
I left a comment during a live stream telling Jake to tell Linus to do a video on a folding PC case so I'm taking full responsibility for this video
We'll be sure to have them send all the sponsor and ad revenue your way ;)
@@3nertia Loool my only humble request is that the next build video has Linus repelled from the ceiling with Jake controlling the line.
@@hambo199 Tough but fair! Lol
Linus, I don't know if you're aware, but White is a really hard color to match because it'll show of the hues of the dyes used to make it, making no two white products look alike. I have the white Corsair Carbide 500R, and I'm glad I didn't try to source white components for it. I'm surprised after ten years that the plastic trim pieces still match the powered coated side panels. (Not complaining, as I like the case and will probably keep it when building a new PC.)
Thanks for the continued love to showcase crazy fun PC cases!
Didn't LTT make a case that opens like this themselves??
The wooden PC. But this case has existed far longer than that.
Build Redux selling pre-builds with GTX 1660 cards for over 2x their RRP.
You're paying way more than just a $75 build fee lol
You 100% will be recirculating warm air from around the sides of that fan rather than sucking cool air through it. It's the same fans people mount in their windows.
Either the fan needs moved further away, or there should be a shroud around it.
Edit: In fact, this guy has scienced the shit out of a comparable arrangement: ruclips.net/video/1L2ef1CP-yw/видео.html
He forgot to apply thermal paste 8:56
Yeah, the 5800x runs hot. hot hot! I had mine at 90C under load as well. What I did to fix it was to run the fans at a higher speed and this is also with a 360mm AIO (deepcool castle with arctic mx5 paste). The only other thing was to manually clock the card at 4.6GHz (46 multiplier), disable PBO, and then set voltage to 1.292V manually. I then got a max of 83C after this, which IMO is still kinda high. I also tried to mess with the PPT/TDC/EDC Limits and also the voltage curve settings, but that did not help much unfortunately on my end only manually setting the voltage and clock speed helped. I think others have had better luck with the limit settings though.
I like the processor, but I am disappointed about the thermals as its a big issue. I understand it performs great, but its a bit confusing how the 5800x is praised as much as it is. I have also read that the processor with more cores, the 5900x, runs cooler, woah. Maybe AMD can release some better settings for motherboard manufacturers to default the 5800x to.
I understand that at first thermal paste wasn't applied in the video, but then after applying it the temps were still high. Excerpt from official response from LTT (this is further down in the comment section):
"A liberal dousing of NT-H2 and Prime95 showed a 90.6deg @ 4.4Ghz with the front panel ON, with a drop to 85.5 degrees and a slight bump to 4.48GHz with the front panel OFF. This confirms that the front panel does limit cooling performance somewhat."
I would appreciate a video maybe shedding some light on these processor temps or some recommendations for those of us that are experiencing high temperatures. 85C with an open case and a 360mm AIO under load is nuts. Glad you saw how hot the 5800x gets first hand.
The DP IN does not need OnBoard graphics, you can plug your GPU into that and you get 2 3.2 USB-C outputs for a dock/monitor.
I like how a 2080Ti is not considered a “modern, high-end GPU” anymore lol
the 2080ti was released 3 years ago, by no means a new card
its still high end but i wouldnt say its cutting edge
@@nemti1712 True. I just find it funny. In my opinion, I think the 2080Ti holds its own very well even after 3 years. It’s basically on par with a 3070, give or take depending on the title. Not including ray tracing, obviously.
I mean that is a mid tier card now.
Linus: "it looks kinda pink."
*While wearing a pink hat* wonder why maybe it's the pink hat color reflecting off the case.
Azza always has some dope ass crazy cases lol
I have that exact same RTX 3080 and I have it on a PCIe 3.0 riser with no negative effects. I get the same performance plugged directly into my Z690 board.
One note is that you have to manually force PCIe 3.0 in the bios or it won't work at all.
Honestly, I'd be tempted to run it on it's side with the gap at the top. The front IO looks sharp on the bottom edge, easy to open if you need access to anything, plus all that heat can just go right out the top. You can even flip the sides open for that open-air ventilation for maximum speeds.
The infamous dust collector
"This is actually a 2080Ti."
Its not a 3000 series. But it's still faster than 99% of GPUs.
"a dock that was 50 metres away"
Yeah, what kind of nutjob would wanna do that?
GPU needs a little more support on the inner end.
Linus himself runs a dock like that lol! See his personal home setup.
Linus has a dock setup like that so of course he'd mention it, even though the pricing of just the cables makes it very much a niche thing.
DO A VERTICAL CASE.
Gpu hangs vertically. Ports are on top under awesome access pannel, airflow is awesome and great for the left side of the desk. Segotep makes cheap ones.
I love my Azza cube. Happy to see them getting some love, and I’m eager for more companies to make unique cases!
The "Build Redux" sponsor for sure sounds cool, however Im able to select a RTX3070 for 790$ for the build, and there is no warning of out of stock delays or anything before checking out... Which makes me worry that the hardware they list isnt actually in their stock/offering that price seems insanely too good to be true... Maybe its all good and I'm too used to never seeing these cards below 1100$ or its too good to be true.... Some promt like "Your selected hardware is available immediately" or "Hardware may cause delays" would be helpful.
They are a PC build boutique and can source these components straight from the manufacturers. They literally advertise this saying you only have to pay MSRP for the components. They will have them in stock.
@@shivangswain Go and watch the GN Review of them .... worst bang for buck... even in these days
Didn't Thermaltake do this a few years ago?
Although Thermaltake has made a mediocre version of just about every product imaginable, so that's not a surprise.

The USB-C Display Port combo works great for Wacom and similar Pen Displays as Thunderbolt is usually either incompatible or depending on circumstances can actually damage the pen display. Not something you want to risk on a 1000$+ item.
somebody has already probably pointed this out, but in my experience with the 5800x helping a friend build his pc and based off my own research, it does run rather hot compared to other zen 3 cpus. usually around 85-90C.
It definitely does. I have one in my rig but I went overkill on the cooling for it because of that reason. Idle it runs at 40 degrees, and playing a heavy game on high settings it hits 60 degrees. Ekwb coolers are fantastic for hot running cpus like the 5800x.
@@jovanym50 thanks for letting me know, that's SO much colder!! i'll have to recommend one of those to my friend!
@@stevenxw no problem! I have the Ekwb AIO Elite 360mm cooler. Comes with 6 vardar evo argb fans for a push pull configuration or use them in your case elsewhere, a fan hub, extra thermal paste and the brackets needed for intel or amd processors. Thing is beautiful and works great. Make sure to set good fan curves for good airflow through your motherboard software or any other softwares you might use, and good pump rpm depending on your cpu temp and it will stay nice and cool. Also depends on if it’s overclocked or not. Mine is overclocked by my motherboards AI software. Sits around 4.6 to 4.8 ghz
That's a really innovative case that gives you best of both worlds. Opened when gaming for airflow and closed when not in use to prevent dust buildup.
1st case I built myself from scratch had this awesome door style. Well kinda, it went all the way from top to bottom and hinged in the middle with a overlap of about 1mm and once you lifted it all the way open it could fold it into a square and stayed in place a top of the case.
This is a GENIUS way of directing airflow while at the same time having testbench like openess. Sad that dust will essentially create a metropolis in it but... hey thermals better than ambient air?
I still have a freaking Azza Genesis lying around that I got from a buddy years back.
Always was a fan of their aesthetic
So cool to hear a shout out to my favourite Aussie tech channel. Go Gear Seekers! Great case too.
I want to bet that the "pink" white linus was seeing was the reflection of his beany on that kind of matte surface. Try different beanie color under the same studio lights.
Showing off your build is going to another level.
i love the white colored endcard. good one
It doesn't appear that you have the AIO pump connected to the correct header, the pump header is right below the 24 pin connector labeled SYS_FAN5_PUMP. This could be the reason why you're only getting partial cooling yet still stuck in the 90s. The CPU_OPT you're connect to is specifically for CPU pump fans, not the pump itself.
azza has always been making very unique looking cases, i've been aware of their existence for like the past 11 years or sth, i remember exactly a decade ago i saw a case from azza that was just a massively big case that looked like a standard one but way taller, literally had room for 2 computers. A mini itx (iirc) form factor one in the top compartment.
Looked really good with the frame alone without the panels too
I use a type c monitor with my MacBook so I can see why this can be useful, you not only get display but you also get a bunch USB ports which are more accessible since they are on the monitor
This is incredible. Now if only it were Micro ATX sized for spaced within 13 inches tall. I ended up with a Cerberus Sliger for the job.
I think the pink hue is because they may coated with red oxide for corrosion resistance. Personally I prefer Termaltake core P3 snow with temperd glass kit. More expensive and MUCH heavier
the way you are handling the AIO reassures me that I need to not worry so much.. when i tried to instal mine the first time i treated it like it was a balloon
I loved Azza, i used my old Azza solano case for like a decade 100% on and the fans even still work lol
An up to date build using the newer 'Be Quiet' products with testing would be a cool video...
I have a different theory on the case. The case isn't closed off (made worse by the fan configuration I think but not 100% on this part in particular since I have a noctua air cooler) so the hot air behind the radiator isn't being pulled so much by the back case fan as being pushed by the 3 fans in front of the radiator.
Honestly thought they would've kept the smoke machine around for this.
You get the bulkiness of a tower case with the drawbacks (dust, noise) from a open case. Though it looks cool. It’s for people who would mount 24” wheels on a Honda.
Those temps are caused by 2 things. You forgot the thermal paste and Gigabyte uses way too much voltage on stock settings. I have a 5800x and their b550 vision and my temps were really high until I undervolted and overclocked. It's also weird that Gigabyte's x570 aero doesn't have thunderbolt but their b550 vision does. The boards look almost identical otherwise.
14:27 this case frickin awesome, BUT, wish front I/O was on top of case…..or at least towards top instead of on bottom since makes plugging in & reaching “harder” if located anywhere other than right/left side of desk by you. Definitely would go mesh front panel, and also wish the back had some kind of mesh as well (maybe won’t be an issue…..but open air cases, can get quite DUSTY from experience). But, very nice looking case….ME LIKEY, and wanna see version 2.
Great build Linus!👍🏻👍🏻
Cool project, I like how the lids are like the one in the commodore pet ready to service it.
I've honestly missed proper, no bullshit, no clickbait video titles and thumbnails. Truly hope you stick with this format!
fantastic open air compromise case, top panel should be perforated as heat rises.
I LOVE THE CASE AND ALL OF ITS ADDED COMPONENTS SO NEAT N LOVELY
