Hey guys, a tip if you want to cut down on RGB software bloat, you can use a cable adapter for your AL120's, connect them directly to a Corsair RGB Hub and control everything through iCue. That's how I do it anyways, I've been really impressed with the AL120's performance, ease of install and lighting! I personally have my RGB set up to be heat reactive on a curve, looks really cool! Anyways, hope this comment helps someone.

Great that they have a ton of stock of the 6800XTs and stuff, but the pricing is still obscene! Was that $1400 for a 6800XT? It's a $650 MSRP!!! It's mind-numbingly infuriating that retailers are still getting away with this kind of stuff.

[@curtisbme]

The OEM's are typically the ones setting those prices. All of them have jacked up the original MSRP. I got a Gigabyte card for its msrp of 600 but that exact card msrp was 450 when they released it 2 years ago.

[@RobertoDelTaco]

Although I agree, I hate scalpers with a passion. At the end of the day though MSRP is Manufacturer SUGGESTED Retail Price, so there's nothing illegal about it, it's just scummy, but you can't fully blame the retailer, if people are still buying at those prices then they'll keep selling at those prices, especially online scalpers that have them for 3x the price, if people started boycotting and just not buying them then sellers will have no choice but to lower price. Especially once stock starts normalizing eventually. TLDR - sellers are scumbags for overcharging, buyers are dumb for buying instead of waiting. I'm glad I got my 2080ti 2 weeks before 30series launch and was teased by friends, I don't regret it, and if I waited then I'd be screwed and stuck waiting, and I'm not dumb and impatient enough to buy over MSRP. I love gaming but tbh if I had to wait I would, it's not worth ever over paying for any tech, especially since you know it's gonna be obsolete eventually anyway

19:00 you could put the washers in between the case and the radiator, that way they are not visible on the top of the case but hidden in between.

[@TrowGundam]

The RGB plug on the Uni-fans isn't really proprietary, it's just a bit older. I think they are used because it is a locking connector unlike the standard 3-pin D-RGB plug. Some Phanteks devices also use this plug. The phanteks stuff just usually comes with the adapters to go to the standard 3-pin. You can get or make them easily enough though. I found them on Ebay for dirt cheap.

[@I1S1337]

[@frameworkparity]

I'm surprised Jay didn't remembered to dremel or file the longer screws at the top to make them fit without the washer. Another option would be to have the washers on the inside.

[@themooq]

That's what I thought. Just cut them down. To keep the threads intact you can put a nut down the screw before cutting. When you are finished cutting, just unscrew the nut and the hurt part of the thread will get corrected by the nut.

[@rodmorgan7041]

But the washer is there on the outside to protect the case from scratching as you tighten the screws.

[@themooq]

@@rodmorgan7041 Nope, it is there because the screw is too long.

Best done on a real grinder. Takes a few seconds each, where as a Dremel would take way long. Filing is an option too, of course.

[@SideBurn12]

I would atleast try with a thinner radiator at the front. The thicker one kinda blocks the intergrated reservoir a bit. A thicker one at the top looks great though! Excellent editing on this vid, Phil 😄

[@RichWhiteUM]

I was thinking the same thing. Also, plastic washers under the bolt head will prevent scratching the aluminum and allow proper tightening of the fans and rad.

[@CanadianBusLiving]

I love seeing the thought process, it teaches me so much, thanks for not cutting that or montaging it

[@tweb8833]

You could always put the washers on the rad side of the case, it will give you the spacing you need, but will hide the washers completely

You could place the controller in the top right corner of the case above the vertical rad. The cables would be long enough stock then and you can hid any extra cabling behind the rad.

[@nitroblueuk]

@JayzTwoCents move the top rad fans so the connector is near the front of the case. That would put it near the back panel so it's easier to hide and would make the run to the controller shorter.

[@cmarting83]

A while back the guys from GGF released a video where they used 3 120mm radiators in the top position of a build rotated sideways and daisy-chained them with tubing which looked pretty cool and then installed 3 uni-fans just as if they were installed over a 360mm radiator as well. You could do something like that here to help you fill out the open space an look cool at the same time.

[@TheMugwump1]

14:37 OMG I know that feeling too well. For me, it seems like the more difficult stuff just works... Then, I'm plagued by the simplest of actions (getting a screw to start threading) taking far too long. If I still had long hippy hair I'd want to pull it out at times LOL

[@DJaquithFL]

It's easy to shorten any screw with a Dremel cutting tool. Simply cut a millimeter longer and then use the blade to sand and smooth the rough cut.

[@PabzRoz]

I just bought the Ender 3 Pro from my local microcenter for only $100 during their promotion! Nicks going to love it. Such a good printer it's amazing and easy to use. It's insane the amount of value you get out of an ender 3. Definately get a BL touch as an upgrade though. You wont have to worry about leveling the bed anymore. Just click print and get a perfect first layer everytime.

[@prodeous]

Another great video. As for mounting of the fan controller. I'd stick with behind if the gpu but not attach it to gou but motherboard. A 3d print that would allow you to plug it into the many puce slots. Another option is to attach it to one of the metal back slot covers. With slight modifications

[@waterdragon65]

Jay! If you don’t want to have washers on the top screws for the radiator. First mark the screws with a sharpie or paint at the corrected length, grab a nut (that is the correct thread for the m4 screws) and thread it onto the screw, then just grind down the screw or trim with cutoff wheel. Next, take the nut off to fix any of the threads that may have bent on the ground down side and VOILA! Correct length screws! Thanks for the great vids you keep putting out! Keep it up!

[@frankjohnson2935]

Now that you have a 3D printer that you might get to use you might like to make spacers for the front between the case and the intake fans.

I now have a PH-CB-DRGB3P_MB adapter/splitter from Phanteks plugged directly into the motherboard's ARGB header which allows me to control my SL120s directly from Armoury Crate without the Lian Li controller or L-Connect software. It also means I didn't have to splice the 3-pin ARGB wire to get more length out of it. The 4-pin PWM is plugged straight into one of the motherboard fan headers. Works very well if you don't mind losing the L-Connect software.
