I disagree about the motherboard HDMI output being useless. (so long as CPU has integrated graphics) … These ports have been very helpful for troubleshooting when I’ve suspected a faulty GPU in the past. Great backup if gpu dies or to rule out GPU

[@nolanfox8970]

Justin or anyone that can answer, I have heard that the 4090 is so heavy that when built in the horizontal position that it needs an added support to keep if from sagging down and potentially damaging something. Does this prebuilt have good structural support for the 4090 or would I have to add something in myself if I bought this?

[@stevenmoore3850]

Structural support will depend on what MB they use i would suggest you get an aftermarket support for it to remove any worries

[@jordansunderman5348]

Thank you. I'm sold on this one. I'll definitely use the link once I have the money. Great review.

[@petersonfamily6223]

Thanks for the review. I like that it is cool and has excellent upgradability. Unfortunately, the Vengeance i7400 configured similarly to the R15 was $500 more. But the Corsair has 64 GB 5600 Memory, 2TB SSD, and a two-year warranty, so this is not like for like. I like everything about this system and wish I looked at it during the Presidents Day sale week. Was it cheaper? Dell's pricing on Alienware R15 during the Presidents Day sale was aggressive. The other system I was interested in was the HP 45L, with similar specs for keeping things cool, but Vengeance does an excellent job. I ordered the i7400, 4090, and 13th Gen i9 system using your link and will decide on which system to keep. I really like that the Corsair is off-the-shelf parts and has room to grow. I have had issues with Dell's proprietary parts in the past and the ability to upgrade. The downside is Corsair doesn't seem to have any discounts, I tried the student discount, but it is no good for this system. With Dell, I get a Military Discount; and when added to the other discounts Dell has, it adds up to savings.

Does it come with the whole set?

[@toddsmith1083]

Awesome review, thanks! A few quick questions as I'm trying to decide between the i7400 and Origin Neuron..... 1. What M.2 drive model is this exactly and how would it compare real world to a Samsung 990 pro for 4k gaming? 2. You can get the exact same PC at Origin in the Neuron, but with a Samsung 990 pro 1 TB (or 2 TB for a little more $$$), the better (but no lighting) ML120 fans and Z790 MB for the same $$$$. Better to go Corsair i7400 in this case or the Origin Neuron? Corsair also has a 2 year warranty vs 1 on the Origin, but not sure how much better the Z790 and Samsung 990 M.2 are on the Origin which might offset this? 3. For 4k gaming specifically, would it be better to wait for the AMD 7950x3d or 7900x3d versions of these models later this month or early next month?

[@mobeck]

your reviews are highly informative. Nicely done.

[@bgzdarrell]

Really like your reviews... but cannot find an answer to a question people seem to skip over : How many additional M.2 slots are open for expansion?

[@usaf2011]

i believe there is 1 additional m2 slot that the GPU doesn't cover you that you can expand into? I am about the receive the PC i can update this comment

[@gerhardtbrian90]

Hey Justin, I've been sitting on the i7400 in my cart with your code for a few days now but I'm concerned about the heat on the 13th gen i9. Do you believe the 240 rad in the i7400 will be enough to keep that CPU cool? I would love to see a video on that rig

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey @D1C1T4L CH40S that’s a pretty good question. I’ve been begging Corsair to send me the i7400 since I know everyone is interested in it and they’re wondering the same thing. They only had the a7300 review unit available at the time but said I should be getting the i7400 this month. But even before reviewing it, I already have a strong feeling it will do great with thermals this year too. Last year it was the #1 coolest i9 with a 3090 of all the prebuilts I tested. So it’s safe to assume we will have similar results compared to the competition this year as well. Even with a 13th Gen i9 and 4090. I really appreciate you making the effort to click on the product link in the description or from the pinned comment before putting it in your cart!

[@davidwilliams5407]

I've just discovered your channel and I really appreciate all the work that goes into your reviews. I do have one question, though. Some consumer product review sites make a point of buying the products they review through the regular consumer channels to be sure they have the same experience a regular consumer would have. Since you receive the products directly from the sellers, and presumably those sellers know you're going to publicly review the products, how do you know the products you're reviewing aren't somehow enhanced to make them perform better than the versions that regular consumers would receive?

[@sggsquadpresents]

Kinda true but that could be tested by swapping components or buying the pc and testing it side by side with the sample. Unfortunately that is the expensive way of doing things. Cherry picked review samples still are a thing. But even if there is a difference I doubt that it is big. Overall I think that even if the pc was cherry picked the review is still quite valid.

@Blackdragon Emobunny sorry for the late reply.. This is the one you're talking about right? go.corsair.com/2roXyg . Right now that is sitting at $2,800. I actually don't recommend that one. If you check this one out of the i7400 go.corsair.com/n1rYz9 you will get the new 13th Gen i7-1300K which is actually about 7% faster and the new 4070Ti which is about a 38% faster GPU for the exact same price.

I'm going to use this on a hdmi 2.1 tv. So 120 fps is all I can get. Should I get the AMD or intel?

[@gerhardtbrian90]

120 FPS at what resolution for which games, if you don't upgrade your monitor it will be bottlenecking your PC gaming performance. If you don't plan to upgrade the monitor you could save yourself some money by not getting the top of the line hardware

[@jordansunderman5348]

@D1G1T4L CH40S well, I'm using a 4k 120hz tv. With this I'll be able to play with max settings or raytracing and still get high frame rates.

[@gerhardtbrian90]

@Jordan SunderMan for 4k gaming at 120 FPS and max settings, this is the rig you want then. Performance wise the Intel processors are more powerful but both the Intel and AMD versions can hit 4k 120FPS. The i9 runs a bit hotter than the AMD but it's also a bit faster

[@jordansunderman5348]

@D1G1T4L CH40S I think I want to go AMD because I've always had Intel. Do you think the difference is substantial or is it not so much?

[@gerhardtbrian90]

@Jordan SunderMan from the tests that I have seen, the difference in performance when it comes to gaming is about 10 FPS more in favor of the i9. So for about $50 less, the i9 will get you 10 extra frames per second. But with that being said, a lot of games will run over 120 FPS at 4K on both chips, so if your TV is max 120 Hz then you would be safe to try the AMD chip over the i9. And as a big bonus the AMD is a lot easier to cool than the i9. This info is assuming you take the RTX 4090 GPU as well
