Literally one of the only people I have found reviewing this pc. About to order it myself. Thank you

[@HTHAMMACK1]

This is about the only prebuilt line I would buy. Corsair does a great job on their direct line PCs.

The best prebuilt I have seen. I do wish however that Corsair gave a bit more flexibility. I don't need 64 gb of ram. I would trade half of that for a larger Corsair case.

[@NA-yh5ez]

Questions/concerns about R15 comparison: 1. What about power supply: Corsair (1000W 80 Gold PSU) vs R15 (1350W 80+ Platinum) - When does this matter -- e.g., future proofing, whatever 2. Difference in SSD size Corsair (2TB SSD) vs R15 (max 4TB SSD) - Couldn't change to other options on linked site for buying Corsair 3. You had a vague point in one of the videos saying the R15 runs hot - Does this matter and why? E.g., maybe the system won't last as long or something -- was thermal/power throttling solved with R15? 4. You seemed down on the fact that R15 doesn't have 4090 Founder's edition but I searched and non-Founder's Edition cards seem to be (slightly) better overall although more expensive, very generally speaking - Do you prefer the Founder's Edition 4090 / why and how does the R15's 4090 compare 5. What about CPU cache size -- R15 has 68MB and I couldn't find Corsair's listed. - Does this matter -- I have seen some comparable systems to R15 with smaller cache size. 6. What about software / support in general - For example, I have heard good things about Alienware Control Center but don't really know if Corsair has better/comparable My main use case for the PC is machine learning / deep learning -- I hear you on the price but I'm leaning R15, open to being convinced otherwise

corsair is better then alienwere by far

Yeah I do agree with that Tomo.

Where is the full review?

[@stevewilczynski8429]

From all the new prebuiilts the corsair Vengeance i7400 with 4090 looks like the most impressive. Although I will be doing some gaming my main use for my new pc will be video editing and production and photo editing. My only complaint is that a secondary ssd is not currently available for purchase with the i7400. I'm thinking of buying a 4 or 8 terabyte additional M.2 NVMe ssd. Does the motherboard have room for this? What brand and model of the ssd comes with the i7400. Would the best practice be to buy the same brand and model in a larger size? One last question - could I add a pcie firewire card that would allow me to import old 8mm, hi8 and digital 8 tapes into the pc? Your videos are great. Looking forward to your full review of the Corsair Vengeance. Thanks.

[@samr4281]

hello friend, dont know if you got an answer or not, but this computer has crazy amounts of space for more drives! I use this pc to write and mix music so i feel you

[@iRebel1]

You reviews are so awesome and helpful bruh. Much respect 🤘🏻

[@jonathandlh7]

It’s always great to see your first impressions Justin. Can’t wait for the full review. Quick question by the way, is the a7300 worth the extra $50 over the i7400 if it is just a matter of performance vs efficiency? Have a good one. 😁

[@los716realtalk]

This is exactly what I want to know. Not sure over $50 what to get. Have both at check out and one will be the winner just not sure which one I should get🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@usaf2011]

Would longevity have a play as well with the AM5 platform being able to be upgraded?

[@Captyogi]

I have question do pre builds come with water in the water cooler already or do I have to put it in before starting the pc

[@quitepossiblylucky]

Prebuilds already have the liquid in the cooler and these are usually sealed so you won't have to add any extra in the future.

[@nlr7373]

What PC would you recomend for around 2000usd or a good starter pic

[@jacobalves8193]

Hi, Do you think you could do a review on the HP Omen 40L ive been looking at thats pc and have been getting mixed feelings but I would like a full review by you since there arent many reviews on it.

[@souls1lver]

The Corsair pc seems like a wayyy better deal than the Alienware, and looks nicer too imo

[@toddsmith1083]

Great vids! Any plans to review the Vengeance i7400? Also, is it better to go.with this model or the i7400 with Intel 13900?

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey Todd. The i7400 will be faster if you get this version of it go.corsair.com/kjYn2z with all the other exact specs of the a7300. I do plan to review the i7400 as well but Corsair told me it's with another reviewer right now so it will most likely not be for another month or two

[@toddsmith1083]

Thank you Justin and much appreciated! One last question....as far as pre-built pc's go, is the i7400 going off specs for the $$$$ a relatively good deal and do you know of any other pre-built with the same/similar specs that would be better right now? My limited research keeps pushing me to the i7400. Originally was looking at build redux, but Corsair seems to be better from my reading (?).

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey Todd, from what I've seen the only better price is iBUYPOWER. And I would definitely go with Corsair over that brand as my experience shows that brand to underperform

[@marimthe1083]

Great review. A silly question. Is this computer already optimized for gaming? Just plug in and start the fun? Thanks for the review

[@infinite_xiao5483]

Is the r15 review still coming?

[@JustinTechTips]

Yep! That one will be a little later since I am taking some time off with family this next week.

Been waiting for this!!!! Thank uuu

[@calmingnight3376]

Seems like a pretty decent pre build. For once, this is not a crappy pre build

[@Thebmanboss]

Could you make this exact pc for cheaper by custom building it. I’m wanting to get a new pc and I want to go a bit overkill so I can keep it for like 10 years like my current one.

[@usaf2011]

@@Thebmanboss It goes on sale often for $300 off, it's quite a good deal at that price in my opinion

corsair uk still has 10th ,11th, and 12th gen only...plus you can only pick corsair one case build

[@JustinTechTips]

wow that's really frustrating.. :/

Realistically you can get the top on the line R15 for about 4500 if you just call them. Still a lot but that’s 10% of

which pc is better this one or the alienware R15

Hey Justin, I really like yours videos, they are very instructive and enjoyable ;)

[@DaDUKES7]

I bought my first PC 2 years ago R11 17-10700 2060 Super 32gb ram 3200mhz 550w psu. I’d like to upgrade GPU BUT FOR THAT I NEED MORE PSU which I’m finding is a drag through Dell. I’d love to upgrade this R11 but I’m not sure if it’s worth it, and I’d love to go for the gusto with a beast like this, and it seems more customizable or at least easier to mod. Any good direction I could take?

Hi, well done video! Have you tried to play test Battlefield 2042 Ultra graphics on this PC?

[@elebogenbill1651]

Hi Justin, Also thanks for this first impression! I know a thorough review for the R15 and the corsair comes later - but did I see this right with the temps? Although the R15 had a “better” FPS output the CPU temps were mostly around 80 degrees while the corsair never went above 55?? That is insane (the comparison I mean…) Thanks again!!

[@JustinTechTips]

Hey Elebogenbill, yeah that's one of those key differences between AMD and Intel usually. AMD more efficient with power and temps but Intel usually performs better when it actually comes to gameplay fps

[@elebogenbill1651]

@@JustinTechTips ahhh ok - so its not “only” the bad cooling of the R15? And thank you - I did not know that actually 🙈

[@MaDDeX93]

@@elebogenbill1651 It is also the bad cooling of R15. Just stay away from alienware prebuilds.

[@Cryptid71]

What is the maintenance on this? Obviously slight cleaning of dust and that sort of thing. But do we need to flush out the water cooling or any of that? I would love to purchase a talk to your PC like this but have zero knowledge on how to do any of that, so I obviously want low maintenance as well.

[@JesseThePotatoHunter]

No he doesn't have that type of liquid cooling he has the in closed AIO for the cpu so no mantience needed

Just n tech ,is it better than the corsair vengeance I7300 .i7400 and i8100

[@MrDashpilot]

Fantastic as always. Unless you find a better between now and March that’s my future computer. One question though, why did you go with an AMD processor? I usually do Intel, is it worth switching?

[@JustinTechTips]

Thank you MrDashpilot! I usually prefer Intel as well but the only review unit that was available right now from Corsair was the AMD one which is the a7300. They told me it most likely will be a month or two before they can send me the i7400 which is the latest Intel Corsair Vengeance pc

[@thespiritualtraveller74]

Where did you get your cool green screen background image from?

[@DW-xt6nt]

Nice one, does it have a 360 AIO? Need to do some sustained thermal tests on these pre builds, must beat the Dell box of nightmares! No thunderbolt port seems a big miss but like the look of it generally, would only buy with the 360 AIO unless thermals proven ok gaming/productivity.

[@davidregal2979]

Most of these newer pre builds have less than 360 and the Alienware is Praised for just moving to 240 while no one talks about Skytech Eclipse which has 420

[@jgrigsby8697]

Good work. Do you think you could spend some time on how loud they are? As an owner of a few Alienware's I wanna make sure that the new pc i get (which wont be Alienware this time) arent louder than it. Its kinda on my nerves so I need the next one to be quiter.

try going to windows then click on the restart button while holding shift key. That should lead you to a blue screen where you would select advanced options and then look for an option that says Bios or something like that.

My new i7400 with rtx4080 works like breeze. I keep testing it, and playing demanding games, its a beast. But, my worry now is that i have just realized they put corsair rm850w psu inside. Again, works amazing, but now im worried if that psu is good enough for years to come, or is it going to blow up all my internals one day…only tood thing is that 4080 is somehow undervolted(uses less power)

[@johnnyboogalo4897]

Congrats on the i7400! That's the one I really want. Corsair should be lending me a review unit within the next month or 2! I predict the i7400 to be a little faster but a little hotter and not as energy efficient as the a7300. Merry Christmas and God Bless you too!
