NZXT H9 Elite All White PC Build!

[@p.d.k.]

SignalRGB has Corsair's Vengeance RGB sticks on its compatibility list. May not work if the motherboard can't be detected, but it's free to try.

[@choppergirl]

Use Corsair iCUE software to change the DIMM color... in another computer... and set them to Hardware Lighting (thescheme you want when they get no signal from iCUE or anything else). In your case, a scheme set to all white (if that is possible in Hardware Lighting, I'd have to check. I'd do it for you free of charge, for the cost of shipping back to you. Also, there's a brightness setting you can set to them (from like full down to 10%). When I bought my first two sticks the seller didn't think they lit at all, because the Hardware Lighting was set to off. My second set had Hardware Lighting set to Rainbow Puke. Note that Hardware Lighting is the onborard bios configuration on the sticks that tells them how to light when they get no signal from any running software... like during boot or shutodown (or when you're running linux) or in your case... no software able to talk to them at all because the mobo. Once iCUE takes over it does the real time iCUE Windows controleld Murals or whatever lighting you set up in ICUE. I set the brightness on all my RGB to the lowest or near lowest setting because I run them in the dark and to prolong the life of the LEDs. But mostly because I'm a night person. How do you get 4 DIMM sticks to run at near full 2 stick speads though.. I think that's impossible due to the limits of the memory controller. My r sticks of 32gb are still set to the the safe stock 3600/3800mghz. They can go as high as 4200. I twould be nice if I could get them up to 4,000 in EFIBIOS but when I try it barfs at me. Hit me up if you want me to set them to all white for you at whatever brightness level. I'm running the same sticks, the White Corsair Dominators with LEDs so yeah, I've been there done that at first with these. My first OS install to get me up and running was Zorin OS which had no iCUE equivalent (well ti does but not easy to set up) so like you, I was stuck in Rainbow Puke mode by default at 100% brightness on... EVERYTHING. Great and impressive when you first fire up your PC, wow, love it... but after a while it becomes way too... overpowering and grates on you. So I feel your stuck in RAINBOW PUKE mode pain. Been there, done that, got the tshirt so to speak. It wasn't until I got WIndows 10 installed and figured out how iCUE worked (not particularly intuitive) that I could finally change them to something else.

My all white build in Corsair 500X with White Dominator STicks and white ML120 fans and H150i 360 RAD: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZa3iZJ7oLSolaM I can't tell you how much I sw0re and cvrsed at Corsair in comments sections about their RGB until I finally got it all working and running. Some of the control boxes I bought off ebay were dead, or I'd burn out a fan, or iCUE just drove me crazy tryin to figure out what their design philosophy was and how it worked. now that I know, it's dirt simple, but it was a long arduous journey to get from box of parts to all working system with a lot of unnecessary snags and hair pulling along the way. Once you figure it all otu and get it working,t hen you're like, oh okay. Now I know. This is what you can and can't do and how you do this or that.

[@DannysTechChannel]

Nice cinematic B-Roll! You beat me to the all-white build for the year. Do you do all your own editing?

[@BPSCustoms]

Yes. Mostly a one man operation over here.

[@axtran]

Your white Manta build is what made me buy a Manta. I miss that case (sold it to a friend since he liked it so much).

[@BPSCustoms]

The biggest mini-ITX chassis ever

[@axtran]

@@BPSCustoms I think that Asus Z11 or whatever stole that crown :)

[@sascenturion]

An awesome build! ..well done 😀 Your too hard on yourself in regards the memory rgb ,i think it looks great 👍 Thanks for the video

[@michaelthompson9798]

Totally agree 🥰💪✊

[@Cruzader80]

I have this same motherboard and Ram and managed to get the RGB to work on the Ram. I had to close all other software that controls RGB Ram. And just use iCUE and Cam. Had to force the Ram firmware update through ICUE and now I can change it with no issues

[@screatyswote3035]

I had the same issue with Corsair Dominator DDR5 and couldn't control the RGB with anything other than Corsair's own software. MASSIVE dealbreaker. I ended up switching to some Adata XPG Lancer RGB memory and it's addressable via MSI's software and even comes in white if that matters to you. Why Corsair can't manage this is beyond me.

[@accelement3499]

white builds are the skinny jeans of pc building

[@jeromebose7781]

RAM options: white Kingston FURY Beast RGB or G.Skill Trident Z5 silver DDR5-6000 ........... I did not build up my 2023 setup today but its still in planing. In my case I will add a beautiful MSI 4090 Suprim Liquid X and add the NZXT duo blowers :) My build will be stunning :)

[@WildkatPhoto]

Thats a sweet build.

[@BPSCustoms]

[@kevinferrell8237]

That is SO fresh and SO clean…clean clean. I’m sorry.

[@The4thSurvivor1995]

Stunning build mate.

[@inherit0r819]

I love the case, but I’m concern abt the airflow. The top part is mainly a glass panel, but I think there’s a lil bit of airflow on the top towards the edge so idk how well the airflow is 😣

[@webpoet73]

It's beautiful. I have a mostly white build. But not near as white as that one. I did one at Fry's that was just about as white as yours. Pretty much everything except the mobo was white. Great job!

[@michaelthompson9798]

Terrific build, looooove the white / grey aesthetics 🤩🥰👍! I wouldn’t worry about the ram rgb or clearance issue imo. I do think thou that GPU manufacturers with the Nvidia RTX30-series looked nicer than the 40-series (for me anyways☺).

[@bigbod7611]

I have no problems controlling the Dims from Corsair Icue

[@BaiileyPlayz]

I’d love to have this pc 😩

[@jeffm7541]

Looks pretty good, I just wish NZXT would have the VRM shroud white instead of black. I would have used Corsair DOM PLats instead for RAM.

[@resinds.p4898]

You mean the Dominator Ram?

[@jeffm7541]

yepper@@resinds.p4898

[@resinds.p4898]

Quick questions, didn't you buy a black PSU? Why are the cables connected to the Motherboard still white? Or are the PSU Cables not visible at all?

[@joshmehl6164]

I would've gone with the ROG Strix 4080 White OC, but if my only option was to stay with Aero 4070ti I would've gone with The Lian Li Galahad 360 AIO, which in turn would've made me switch to the white Lian Li Infinity fans. Also ICUE sucks, and I feel your pain on the RGB not syncing up.

[@gurpindersinghmuttar]

Not sure but it look like if you do horizontal gpu mount it can touch the glass not enough clearance

[@mjsolomon5427]

My goodness, I'm a brand new builder. I downloaded corsair's software and it controlled the memory. I have an asrock keyboard. That said, NZXT was/is a little hinky for me to work with. So maybe that's the hitch in your giddy-up.

[@bladactania]

I've had problems with Corsair ram lighting was well. A system I built had 2 dimms and one would randomly change colors, even though the control software still reported the correct color. Even a reboot wouldn't fix it. It's have to change the color, reboot, change it back, and reboot again.

[@BPSCustoms]

I generally don't have problems with Corsair memory, but this time it was frustrating

[@bladactania]

@@BPSCustoms I bet! Great build though!

[@onimashou8705]

All white everything 🎉

[@vincentvega3093]

I disagree. Yellowing is an issue in the long run

[@mattj8643]

Try changing SPD write to false in the bios.

[@ecophreak1]

Nice build, the gigabyte aero is a stunning card, bought one myself

[@dazza0987]

add the strimmer lian li cables :)

[@vincentvega3093]

All those rgb issues are the reason i just stick to one brand for fans that is openrgb compatible through motherboard rgb. For RAM i use white dimms without rgb = no problems. No display/ usb AIOs or pumps. NZXT only for cases - boxy design is great

[@NightOwlYT.]

I like the build but there are more outtake fans than intake

[@heiho781]

I recently built a similar setup, The RTX 4070ti only needs an 8x2 to 16-pin cable, I wonder if the cable mod used in the video is an 8x3 to 16-pin and just plugs in two 8-pin right?

[@dhLotan]

If he used a 3.0 power supply hopefully the cable mod is just a 16 to 16 pin.

[@Cytrencia]

Hi, im considering to buy 3 120mm fans for bottom but not sure if i can put the vertical gpu support stick while the fans are below there. Any tips?

[@stas_da_killer]

OMG!!! Gorgeous ❤️

[@CraigLillie]

Maybe you can tell me where the built in RGB software is in the X570 Aorus Master MB BIOS? I looked everywhere, but unlike the B450 Aorus Elite, can't find any. Ah, the fun with RGB standards. 😹

[@thenative602]

Really like that case, running a Lian li O Mini at the moment and would love to get that case but i'm concerned about the sturdiness, i have 2 giant cats that love to sit on my PC, they both weigh 28 lbs / 13 kg. Will this cas be strong enough to support the extra fluffly weight lol ?

[@67Jeff]

Very nice build.

[@JoshuaHereGTM]

I feel like im going to run into some of these same problems on my white build.

[@fadedlogic1]

The memory would drive me up a wall! Corsair really needs to de-Apple their RGB ecosystem; its a real bummer.

[@BPSCustoms]

iCue is actually OK, I think it's more of an issue that NZXT's own software doesn't work with RGB memory.

[@deansigman6099]

I went the other route and did a black out system with no rgb. Nice build though

[@BPSCustoms]

Those are also fun, I haven't done one in a while.

[@dwightwright6334]

Signal rgb will control them, it’s the best all in one rgb controller

[@Monty___________]

How much was this build?

[@LazyDays-]

Is the memory rgb still an issue

[@Zempxt]

Is it worth £1300 for a pc atm im using a ps5

[@NightOwlYT.]

Switching from a ps5 to a 1.3k pc would be like a dream. If you want more variety of games and better fps, yes, a pc is so much better than a ps5

[@ryansherman4556]

could have got a nzxt USB hub to make the USB cable a non issue

[@poeticsilence047]

All it needs is a white monitor and a white power cables.

[@willfarren]

[@imDADDY375]

[@darkknightforU]

i would have changed the gpu to a rx 6800 xt/rx 6950 xt sapphire nitro+ se 16 gb, it might not be white but silver which would match too and the build would be complete amd build

[@PedroWqh]

I prefer to see a 360 rad not a 240, it's kind of short

[@BPSCustoms]

This is a 280

[@SeanOMatic]

If you put the RAM in another system and set hardware lighting to white in iCUE, they'll be white.

[@trieulong2131]

360mm aio pls...

[@sjewkes1]

I wish more manufacturers would invest in white hardware, and good white hardware. The ASUS Strix 3090 White was easily one of the best looking cards of all time, but the 40 series ones are ugly as all hell. Nobody really makes white motherboards anymore, and white RAM kits are usually allotted to the lower performance SKUs. It's a real shame. I have a white Dominator Platinum kit and a white P600S case, and I love them.

[@KinGDGaminG63]

Love this guy's stuff keep it up. I know they ya buds but I can't stand to even look at Jay. Idk why that is. Surely something wrong with me .. not him. Mentally. LoL wanna just sla..... never mind. Keep em coming man.

[@jGRite]

This is why I don't buy RGB ram from companies that have their own software. Just let the motherboard handle it. Also, it is sad how much high-end graphic cards cost for some of them to have so little RGB. A Sapphire Nitro+ Pure would have brought some light to that area. Otherwise it looks good.
