[@nothingspeaks]

all the money mostly went to the storage (RAM and SSD)

[@danielleon3456]

I subbed for this amazing content. It's always been a my hobby to build beautiful systems. But I think I will never be able to do it as much as these guys can

[@admodz3292]

Stunning as always brother

[@Pr0Fr0]

Spectacular build Stu! That X299 has soooo much grey on it...I NEED ONE! :D

[@GGFEvents]

Nothing fancy really. Just video'd me doing the build for the case review :p

[@Pr0Fr0]

No your component selection and loop was on point! Came out really nice even without a ton of modding. Its nice to see a case that doesn't require hours of modding to look good for once ;)

[@imaaron7550]

Really love your work. I hope someday I can do that too :)

[@m_jameem]

keep it up GGF pc builds are so cool

[@Defyant123]

Some very nice hardware there, cant wait to see what the modders do with this sexy case its ganna be popular ! creds to fractal for some of the best cases.

[@jerwinsamuel]

What a video and nice technique

[@jojococostudio]

Awesome build!! good choice of components. What reservoir / pump combo is that?

[@titouanjn8409]

Just wow 😍

[@Lenskha]

ABSOLTELY love the watercooling route and layout, you have done an amazing job ! This might be my dream PC with this amazing case, but i think i would have take the Trident RGB RAM instead because it's damn gorgeous with this tinted tempered glass panel. but how do you manage to close the reservoir ? it seems like there is no room for filing the loop and then close it.

[@leeandrew4964]

excellent

[@Sam70831]

damn beautiful

[@frostyfalcon5386]

I know its been a while since you posted but what were the thermals on this build? I am thinking about doing a custom loop for the first time in my meshify c. Also love the content, you guys do some amazing work and love the attention to detail on all of your builds xD

[@pabiQLLD]

Where is the btight light came from?

[@novxcaine]

Beautiful case. If it had blue accents I would get it. It'd match perfectly with my setup lol

[@broke123]

This is a super classy build. Love it

[@tonixpto1]

Nice build, that 3 fans is enough or maybe is better to mount 2 on top of the case?

[@pb4728]

Beautiful mobo

[@abhishek8243]

Could have removed that warning sticker at the end but that's fine to have warning sign.

[@pboerner22]

How thick is the Radiator (with and without fans) and how long ist the Grapicscard with the watercooling?

[@grizzly9960]

Are those the fans that came with the case on that 360mm rad? How are they working out as radiator fans?

[@colessw2]

Is it possible to get all the parts for a build and send them to you for a video to be made and when asked what the pc is it's a link to the video of you guys putting it all together? (Question for streaming)

[@L.u.m]

You should have done the liquid the same color as that purple light

[@MrLocol1]

hey nice build!! please can u give me a detail list of the loop parts i have the same case and an evga hydro cooper w an 7700k and im trying to set up the custom loop can i get the parts list u used to find it in the bitspower web site thanks in advance

[@cimpo327]

if you put the radiator on the front dont you need more coolers? does radiator fan work like a normal fan for your case airflow?

[@ReyhunterMC]

Is that the slim rad 360 from bitpower?

[@mikecru9229]

Has that built leaked, and do you have a part list for it? Also how were thermal on the card you used?

[@Mrrain372618373]

How long is the gpu you used? Also what kind of noise level this case has?

[@Limpfittz]

Would have looked soo much better with a horizontal res below the GPU. Still very pretty!

[@WeightyGhost1]

Including everything else pictured in the build, could you add a 240 rad up top as well? I'm tossing up between this and the enthoo for 1080ti 7700k overclocked which will require more than a 360. enthoo definitely has more room but this is $100 cheaper and much prettier more airflow also

[@nororlol4life819]

Yes but you will need a very small reservoir like the bitspower hexagon

[@TsvetanVR]

Why three small SSDs and why not utilize the M.2 slots and extra PCI-E lanes? How did that single slim 360 rad do with cooling of both the cpu and gpu? Nice build. I wish they made a bigger version of that case, the size of the Define S I'm currently using or even a bit bigger as I love the design (better aesthetics and airflow) but I really need to fit more cooling inside.

[@nororlol4life819]

Now there is a Meshify S2

[@alain9223]

How can this graphics card fit in this case with a radiator in the front? I wanna buy a corsair h115i pro and i don't know which graphics card to buy?

[@InfinityNexusReviews]

Where the hell was that strip at the LED end?

[@mirchandise]

What white led was that at the end?

[@95birdman]

How'd you do the tubing bends?

[@barrchan5358]

2:45 Could it mounted a 2.5 HDD ? Thx!

[@SirCurlyOfficial]

Do you personally feel like the side panel is to tinted? That’s the main thing stopping me from buying this.

[@g496r500t]

GoldenLama LED shines through nicely

[@dickr9345]

GoldenLama I have one and I think it's perfect with a little light inside. I have an Asrock z270 extreme4 and a cryorig h7 quad lumi, both are RGB so there's plenty of light to illuminate the inside. Also have 3 120mm blue led lights as intake. They don't do much for the inside, but they do look pretty slick through the metal "mesh" front panel. I bet LED strips would look great along the edge of the glass, too. I guess what I'm saying is with no lights it may be a bit dark, but even just motherboard RGBs or a couple light strips really make the tint look perfect. My only gripe is the limited radiator support. If it was just an inch or two longer - or taller - it would be perfect all around IMO. If they ever make something like a "meshify S" it will be an awesome addition to the fractal case line up.

[@test555channel]

Now they have both light and dark TG.

[@clocKwizerb]

When I first saw it I was thinking "damn, thats so dark! Can't see anything through it" then I looked at some builds and realised yes you can't see anything through it, until you add some lighting in there, then it perfectly shows through all the lit up components, highlighting them through the glass. It looks great so I bought one myself.

[@VSoni311]

Are you doing a push or a pull with those front fans? I have a meshify C as well and would ideally want to put my radiator in the front. I'll have a 1070ti with very little clearance just like your 1080 Any objections to using the bottom fan?

[@Skykingsound]

In that configuration, it needs to be pull. I wouldn't push hot air from the case through the rad.

[@IroxX0]

Green colour with white fittings on a black board with purple lighting? Was the builder colour blind? The poor beautiful case.

[@jurassic420]

Yeah, doesnt really look that nice

[@sams1550]

Yeah it's terrible... you should send it to me... 😂

[@Dogspark841]

purple and green are complementary and beautiful together

[@SapeHallward]

atleast its not too generic

[@bigmac9712]

What's that for a beautiful white light inside the pc?

[@samithaqi2379]

Hello Sir . i love your videos and i been a sub for a rilly long time i think since the begining , and i would like if it is possible for you to make a video how Water cooling works how you shuld do it how water flows , im new to water cooling so i would like to get more into it , Thank You ( if any of you guys know where i can look at a website and lern from it you can help me aswelll ) Have a nice Day

[@koba188]

What did you use to light up the case at the end?

[@evilpieman]

Deathstroke yeah, he skipped that part! Looked like possibly cathode to me, was nicely diffused

[@n0ldgr769]

been looking for someone to make a build like this with the case using a 360 rad as well as triples ssds (nice build before i get to carried away) my main question is i would also like some hard drives in my build and was wondering about clearance for a full atx psu (the new corsair rmx 850w white version) plus using the fractal Celsius s36. would the psu cables be to pinched having the hard drive bracket in there? second and also not so important question how is the cable management for the ssds? thanks hope to here from you soon

[@JRX6YT]

There wouldn't be any room with a 360 rad+fan for the drive cage. You can only have a 25mm fan at the most bottom with the drive cage moved back a bit. That's with an atx psu as well. Max you can do is a 240mm rad up front and have drive cage as well

[@n0ldgr769]

J R X you couldn't do a 280 with a cage either?

[@JRX6YT]

i'm pretty sure a 280 is fine but there would be no room for a fan at the bottom. You can do a 280 rad up front and still have the cage at the bottom. There's just limited space for a graphics card though. Something like a strix card would only let you have a single fan in front of it.

[@n0ldgr769]

ive seen a build with an x62 being used with both fans was also thinking of using the 1080ti hybrid but still unsure about that

[@jorgg1382]

You can mount a single 3'5 drive to the bottom of the case, if it's enough for you. That would let room for the 360mm rad, while also giving you a bit more room for cable management (Via the removal of the hard drive cage)

[@casperdhli7477]

Will an asus rog strix 1080ti fit with a 360mm radiator in the front?

[@Ethan-rz6cx]

Well do the length of the case - 360-1080ti- fan height

[@GtsAntoni1]

Big fan of this, and was loving the build until that fluid colour. It’s a personal taste thing, and while it’s definitely not for me, you have to try different things. Looked a bit better with the side panel on.

[@aight2475]

wow

[@jp71889]

How do you drain this loop? Not trying to criticize, i'm looking to this as a loose model for a personal build

[@alanvillarreal2288]

removing one bottom plug from the gpu block seems like an easy and safe way to do it

[@elfireii328]

oh, you can remove the front plate. I didnt know that.

[@evanjinks7744]

What pump is that? Or at least how tall is it?

[@benk7352]

what did u use to hold up the gpu and prevent sag?

[@vibasept7733]

Gpu bracket holder

[@pigdaniel]

How put the pump there?

[@draanexle]

??? Not showing cable management at the back with extensions cables...

[@grizzly9960]

damn you didnt boot up the system. I really wanted to see all that trident z rgb light up. Great looking build though

[@dangerineee]

That wasn't the RBG trident Z

[@ulvcluzeau2158]

What temps do you get on CPU & GPU in that build ? :) great build. looks nice :)

[@GregoryLimbe]

I don't think this channel does thermal testing.

[@bansheerider619]

Or respond to comments.

[@ltcalvery]

I don't know much about computer building yet, but 8 sticks of RAM and THREE SSDs seems like a lot lol

[@GuillaumeGagnaire]

I think, for the SSD, is about reliability : configure them in RAID 5, and if one dies, there's no data lost :)

[@cimpo327]

does a 240mm radiator fit init?

[@hykn_]

Iuli Marius I assume you probably found out already but yes, I've got a 280 mm kraken x62

[@jaytarang]

I don't see a drain and fill port . Hmm.

[@Nikko730]

I thought ssd needs 2 plug ins??!!!

[@nvrion7122]

may i know what is under the graphic card ?

[@GGFEvents]

The long black thing? That is a Bitspower GPU stabilizer. Helps prevent GPU sag

[@Defyant123]

thats a bitspower gpu support bracket. Some of those blocks get a bit hefty.

[@f4ke_nyex969]

64gb.......ddr4.....rgb.....800€...

[@HillwalkerRedStone]

are you blind? its not rgb. it doesnt even have any lightning on it

[@ninosauls8590]

Don't see a drain valve... ?

[@ninosauls8590]

Should i bother installing one?

[@GGFEvents]

Depends if you plan on draining your PC a lot.

[@ninosauls8590]

K thanks for the reply. I think its gonna b a couple of tries before i'm happy so i better install one. Thought maybe i was missing something

[@GGFEvents]

Probably best to put one in then. But need to remember a drain port wont fully drain your system.

[@realash]

sorry but why wouldnt it if it were in the lowest point in the loop?

[@backtrakt1544]

What type of case lighting is used?

[@nilsschubert4528]

I cant find the sexy green Liquid in the internet pls can u say the name or sent a link?

[@larryxiang822]

Nils Schubert Probably Thermaltake C1000

[@TolaGarf]

I just come here for the awesome music. Is that weird?

[@smoker6767]

wtf single 360mm radiator for a 7900x and a 1080. BOI you better not overclock this rig

[@locoism1025]

The only negative with this case is the tinted glass being too dark... should have been much lighter so the lighting and parts would be easier to view.

[@larryxiang822]

Some people like tinted glass. It works well wih white light

[@rustyredbeard]

+1 for more effort than Paul and Kyle combined! :-P

[@danielcaparros]

ewwww X299, do you want a heater?

[@JRX6YT]

Daniel Caparrós especially with only a single 360 rad

[@jacksonarmstrong7175]

Daniel Caparrós more like spaceheatify C amirite?

[@13massfreeman42]

Only 1 360mm radiator? Really ? Man, it`s only for internet browsing without any serious load.

[@p72910]

I thought I am the only one who find this problem.

[@mr31337]

Looks like a tart's handbag.

[@Maksinism]

Just MY Opinion, but water cooling a gpu + cpu on a 360 is not very optimal, yes it's ok for a non OC build, but for the pc parts you have you will OC and need at least x2 240 for decent cooling, and the fan mounts and the negative/positive air flow in this build is just wrong, has only negative, also if you plan going intake with the fans placing them like in the video you need to realize that they already have 1 rad that restricts air PLUS the meshify case, if you place the fans between the rad and the front mesh it has a lot more airflow proven by gamers nexus, and you would need 2 fans for exhaust in the top mounting brackets. PS: 1000W PSU is beyond Overkill a good 800-850W gold psu is more than enough, even for OC

[@AME1337]

What an ugly build :D
