Fractal Design Meshify C Build - i5-7600K / GTX 1080

[@Renaldo015]

This is weirdly satisfying and relaxing to watch.

[@Khaledm279]

yes !!!!! :D :D :D

[@cornjulio4033]

Yeah, I agree. Relaxed and still on point. Subscribed ofc

[@VintageBalderdash]

He really saved the best for last, peeling the plastic off the side panel.

[@lazyinsight5614]

This case made it possible, very good cable management too

[@jcdent5775]

I'm building my system for the first time in years and wow the tech has changed - much more straightforward. This is a perfect guide for me since I got an Aorus master and a Meshify C, super clear instructions presented in a Bob Ross style - no happy accidents! Thanks...

[@brucewayne236]

This is like the exact opposite of the Verge build 👀

[@dragonracing80]

Thank you for building this with an i5 makes the comment section so much better

[@Dogsparkster]

how is this comment not at the top?

[@Metzaroid]

lmao this comment is soooo old now.

[@kinghysen945]

This did not age well

[@roadcasted]

Whoever edited this video...thank you

[@northwestclasspnw7974]

It's weird, the voice isn't asmr, but it's just so pleasant. Used this video to help my 2020 build, thank you.

[@tiennguyen2749]

It's been 5 years and i still watching this video like the first days i begin loving this channel

[@dayvie9517]

I love this case, just got it myself. Building in it is so comfortable.

[@zynergygames]

"... to intake cold air and exhaust it out the back." I always say these lines with him while doing the action.

[@Entrepid83]

10:00 Epic bonus peel.

[@UserHandle123]

What a lovely video.. I actually watched this whole video, thank you for being so calm and not trying to make any jokes or TRYING to win viewers..

[@DKDFury]

I really wish I found this video when putting my VERY FIRST PC together this week. Would have saved me a lot of trouble figuring out this case and help ease me through since the instructions the manufactures provide are all so confusing since they each say to do a step first differently than the other

[@Creatorof3000]

That bonus peel at the end.... *NICE*

[@mfvicli]

I just finished a build with this case. Very easy case to work with. Nice airflow too.

[@rainerbehrendt9330]

That was my first Build around 3 Years ago. I would only change 2 Things. Get rid of the 3.5 Drive Cage for more Cablemanagmentroom and i would plug the EPS Cable in before i install the MB because with a Cooler like my Dark Rock Pro4 it's a Pain in the But to reach the Plug if you have greater Handsize. But after a few Blood Sacrifices it worked out. Hail the PC God ;-)

[@CC-um5cu]

Excellence in computer building with laser-focused preparation and execution.

[@dude1320]

I just bought a case and this case looks so much nicer😭

[@FLOODOFSINS]

It's funny when all the tech channels (upload) do a review of the meshify C all at the same time lol.

[@BenRay47]

It's a snap on

[@brenthawkins5511]

question, about mechanical hard drive, how are you able to put cd in it if its placed inside mostly without any entrance? im very new to this

[@LimabeanStudios]

A hard drive just stores data internally, you put no disks into it at any point. Really there is no need for a CD or DVD slot these days anyways.

[@ViperMeat]

Great video. I used this for additional pointers during my new PC build and found it really helpful.

[@stefanzlatanovic7521]

This Fractal case is everything.

[@robsmith4365]

Why is this build tutorial better than the hour long tutorials I have been watching lol

[@JFraza]

Bonus Peel *_goosebumps everywhere_*

[@PandaPowerable]

Why don't any of these videos show what the case looks like at the end with the glass panel on!

[@Jepysauce]

Depending on which one you get they're super dark tinted or pretty see-through like you'd want That doesn't answer your question, but just some info for anyone in the comment section that wants to get a Meshify C

[@tjerkbonga6503]

Builds.gg is pretty nice to see how cases look when there fully build (this messages isn't sponsored).

[@terrywong7677]

See 9:30

[@Brebeanualexcatalin]

That screwdriver man.... AWESOME!!!

[@dusscode]

That guy really deserves a raise.

[@sosunser]

why do my builds never go this smoothly?

[@bocconom]

I know I am a year late but I just had to give you a thumbs up because that's my thought exactly. Especially when it comes to the video card setting. It NEVER goes in that smoothly for me ever. And then there is the "joy" of removing it if the situation calls for it.

[@SilentStorm401]

I did watch a vid on my first try, but on my second I did not and I got it first try 😎

[@nate-kumar]

This was really helpful navigating the meshify case! Thank you :)

[@Guy430]

Oh HELL yes! Another build with Ryan! Sweet!

[@MustafaKhan-hg8lu]

Crazy similar to my own build but from 5 years ago. Thanks Brian.

[@adammcgarrity28]

That bonus peel is great.

[@OutlawGamer-us7xn]

wow, i love that build, the case is amazing, and that mobo is a nice even black and white. fractal design sure knows how to make a case, i may choose this over the NZXT h500

[@Najebanski]

This is my ASMR

[@2poreSnaxAir]

Can't wait to build my first DIY PC

[@robertl8429]

wow man amazing video. definitely so helpful. great job. i just bought this case and was worried about doing my build. stress has definitely dropped since i saw this video. awesome job!!

[@redplanet9505]

This is so satisfying.

[@yvesheinrich5013]

Amazing build and especially the new case!

[@marklamy2898]

Great guide and super useful to me who's never built a PC before, thanks!

[@TheHanfi93]

the mainboard looks sick!

[@laxmannate07]

Just picked one of these up and love it

[@HaloblackopsTenken]

feeling confident right now to build one

[@aldeen1982]

This is simply perfect!

[@tpfernandez]

Excuse me, PCPP, at 9:40 you talk about the next step with managing the cables.Do you turn the computer off before doing that or is it alright to leave it on while doing that? Seriously, please.

[@d34dsYnt4x]

Beautiful case.

[@juncai1646]

nice clear and concise. just wondering how it works when you have two fans in the front but you want to connect it to the one fan sys on the mobo?

[@helloitsjanelle]

Super helpful and clear, thanks!

[@brandoneverett3418]

Watching for the case. Just realized this almost as good as pr0n.

[@hamza_7267]

Will a harddrive fit in the case if you have a triple fan radiator?

[@oskarwittje8348]

you're like the bob ross of pc building!

[@daltinhorp]

Love the post credit scene...made me subscribe to the channel haha

[@4GENS]

Could you explain this further please, 1:27.. Why exactly the second and fourth slot?

[@nineball039]

The motherboard manual will explain which two slots are optimal for two DIMM's. The second and fourth slots are a common design among mobo manufacturers but always read the manual first! More: all modern mobo's will run two DIMM's in dual channel mode (in lay terms - it's faster) if the two correct slots are used. In this instance, slots 2 and 4 are dual channel as are slots 1 and 3 if using four DIMM's.

[@glacialimpala]

Great help, thank you. I was just wondering if my suspicion is correct, that you shouldn't (or even can't) put 3 fans at the front while also keeping the 3.5" holder at the bottom, because then the PSU cables have to turn sharply as soon as they leave the PSU, and that makes me nervous. Seems like if you want both the PSU and 3.5" box to be comfortable you should omit the 3rd (bottom) front fan 🤔

[@ithertzz]

GlacialImpala I've been looking for this too but I've seen it done in build photos. You can slide the HDD tray closer towards the PSU and remove the basement cover to fit the bottom fan. Makes it tight but it should fit. My meshify C will be arriving in a couple of days.

[@thomas_tk330]

really helpful im building an i7 7700k & GTX 1070 build in this case

[@DIMON2579]

Hi, the fans that are in the front can they be installed outside where the front panel is?

[@AlrinNg]

Where will the pc go after ?

[@MrSamadolfo]

😄 Why u want it?

[@sidewinder86ify]

To a buyer ofc..

[@diepurple7464]

What is the camera mount used to get the top view?

[@sAmiZZle82]

Great instructions!

[@greatribman1]

Question for ya, what do you do with the built computers after the live stream/videos?

[@joerodriguez7334]

greatribman1 disassembled by the time you even watched the video.

[@imretro808]

Can you still install a fan in the bottom at the front of the case after installing a hard drive?

[@JeffGillis1]

Prior to your test boot did you have to install the drivers? Or does that come after you install the OS?

[@MrCamel254]

Are you cable powered?

[@animalyze7120]

Love the new cryorig connecting system, lightyears better than the old method. Got the Quad Lumi just as a giggle and man that thing keeps my system cool as well as the old Hyper 212, granted I only have very minor OC's on the cpu just to round it up. If you like RGB that Quad Lumi does a really good ambient effect and adds very good bling to the MoBo area but doesn't over kill it. If not the regular H7 is basically the same thing with no RGB and is a solid Air cooling choice for those not blowing up their cpu's with High OC's.

[@tomliu7090]

I pressed the like button because of the bonus peel

[@SimmziNOR]

Where do you connect the anti-static band?

[@MrMethadrine]

To your OCD brain

[@Jbtw01]

plug in your power supply into the wall but do not turn it on. clip the alligator clip of your anti static wrist band to the vent of your power supply ,probably where you plug in the wall plug, and you’re grounded.

[@sushh1]

damn i love these videos. this case seems interesting.

[@chief3467]

Isn't there negative air flow though because you only have 1 exhaust?

[@korbendallas1956]

Hey Fractal! Please make a Micro ATX and Mini ITX version of this case.

[@khatokhavtasi1901]

Meshify c mini is mATX case. reverse compatible with mITX

[@tatil9464]

Great video! Just wondering, I know this case can handle the Corsair H150i PRO, and I have a motherboard msi-z370-a-pro. What else should I look for to determine if the H150i Pro RGB would work with my motherboard?

[@Qstick333]

Could you run both front fans from a splitter to a single header so they always were in sync?

[@chrisdevl6970]

I can't slide the 3.5 inch drive tray out. It's screwed in there or something. Instructions also say it just slides out but I can't figure out how.

[@NoName-ud4np]

Is there enough space for a hard drive and a rmx 650w in there?

[@ahmadhasbi4342]

this case is a beauty.

[@muhammadarifaiman4889]

Hai, can i know, can 3 fan and radiator fit the case on the top?

[@DJHeroMasta]

I was pumped at first when I heard about this case but after actually seeing it, I'm sold on Phanteks P400S. Still debating on whether or not I'll keep my Define R5. (Might create a dedicated VR Rig?) But I'd go with a smaller case, like the S340 Elite.

[@2boostedsilverado]

How's the airflow in this case? Does it help if some fans are installed in the upper part?

[@GolfRambo]

Airflow is pretty good. I only have 3 fans running right now. 2 on the radiator(H100i) and 1 exhaust(waiting on extensions for the others). Even with positive airflow, I'm sitting idle at about 30-33C. At load, gaming, I'm sitting at about 55-60C while GPU(Strix 970) at about 60C.

[@2boostedsilverado]

Sahota018 awesome. Thanks. I'm waiting for mine to arrive. Gonna have 3x120mm CM jetflows on front. 1x120mm CM sickleflow rear. The top will have both Fractal design. I'll report how temps behave.

[@tilenmlakar7036]

@@2boostedsilverado and how were the temps? Report 😃

[@2boostedsilverado]

@@tilenmlakar7036 cool and steady. 3 fans on front, 1 on the back, 240 CLC on top.

[@tilenmlakar7036]

@@2boostedsilverado cool. I was thinking of using 2 x140 mm arctic f14 pwm on front instead of 3 x 120 mm. No CLC though, air tower cooler.

[@jonhyboy12playsdrum]

I know the housing unit is black and components are black but extra lighting would have been great to see the details a little better as you were building.

[@OneBrokeBloke]

How is the noise level on this case? Usually Fractal fills their cases with foam but this doesnt look as soundproof

[@FLOODOFSINS]

What thermal paste did you use? I didn't see the name. Nice build, not exactly cheap and I see where one could save if they wanted. I would've liked a i7-7700k and went with 250gb ssd or something. Overall kickass build and nice video. AMD stock will make me rich. Buy and hold for 10yrs or 20yrs and if will shock everyone!

[@pcpartpicker]

The thermal paste was included with the Cryorig CPU cooler.

[@leesonneville1817]

Why do they have you on a leash?

[@australiangarbo2519]

hello is is possible you could deliver to australia

[@ZaItan1]

Connect fan to "CPU_FAN" header on motherboard, not "CHA_FAN1~3" yes? There are many similar headers on mobo.

[@bigboyanimation3799]

i want to know if you have memory in the 4 slots of memory, if the cpu cooler will tuch the memory and damage it or not?

[@gaiuspadme6344]

Can you install a 280mm rad on the top?

[@nathanwhite617]

I can’t get all the stand-off screws to sit flush with motherboard!?

[@chrictonj9503]

Interesting. 360mm is stated in vid as max length of GPU but Fractal Design states only 315mm max length. Must have to remove the fan to get longer GPU to fit. ???

[@thanosAIAS]

Can you fit a PCI-express Sound Card in the 1st slot or does the huge CPU cooler interfere with it?

[@aftertheshowmoviepodcast]

I bought a quad lumi recently, really hard to install if the motherboard is already in the case as the bolts move in and out until you put the heatsink on. Looked way easy here but I found it was a 2 person job.

[@yvesheinrich5013]

So 4/5?

[@askariyaw]

What is the specific case fan called that's in the Fractal Meshify C if I want to get an extra?

[@jackfolloway3354]

It's a Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-12: pcpartpicker.com/product/4hH48d/fractal-design-x2-gp-12-black-523-cfm-120mm-fan-fd-fan-dyn-x2-gp12-bk

[@soon931111]

Can it fit 3 intake fans at the front intake with HDD cage inside?

[@syd_jzx100]

It can fit 3x 120mm and 2x 140mm fans without removing cage. Removal of cage is only needed for mounting of 360mm radiator.

[@Byrjas]

I don't understand. I've seen this before. It use to be 1st and 3rd for the ram. When did it change to 2nd and 4rth? Am I that old? Probably to do with the newer motherboards I guess. . .

[@React2Quick]

Byrjas on some boards it's 1 & 3 others it's 2 & 4. I guess it just depends on the manufacturer?

[@Byrjas]

Yeah, MSI said it depends on the motherboard, not the manufacturer. So basically someone goes "I think I'm gonna do this, this time around.

[@Ms.Araleza]

Thank you!

[@the_noble_wolf1370]

Just built for the first time and when I tested to see if it turns on it powers up for a second then shuts off. Any ideas please?

[@javadan123]

Is it even worth going on the Z270 platform at this point since Intel already announced Coffee Lake? Feels like the Z270 was just a stop-gap.

[@UsingInvisibleInk]

javadan123 I was hoping to get an 8600k for my z270 board rip

[@Arik-2103]

UsingInvisibleInk not gonna work. Intel screwed everyone with a Z270 board, you need a new board for Coffee lake

[@UsingInvisibleInk]

Arik Zuidema If that was done on purpose Intel is retarded. If I have to get a whole new system with new motherboard that also gives me the choice to switch to AMD. I don't understand why Intel did this. Maybe there is a specific reason why they can't use older motherboards idk

[@yvesheinrich5013]

+Arik Zuidema Wait, you mean to tell me that the 100 and 200 series won't have the 8th generation support? If so, damn...

[@UsingInvisibleInk]

Yves Heinrich Nah its confirmed :/ Guess I'm switching to AMD when I buy my next CPU

[@Thristed]

Can i plz ask you one thing? Cause its killing me. I have the same case but not sure how many fans to add? This is my current idea : 3xLL120 fans at the front, 2 at the top and one in the back. CPU cooler will be a dark rock pro 4. Just afraid that my cool air from the front will be removed to fast true the top fans. Tyvm for ur answer..

[@fantommm]

The SATA data cables are provided with what? I know the SATA power cables are provided with the PSU but the data cables??

[@vincent5613]

So now im asking myself since im not a pro... do you need those two extra fans? Arent the two fans that are already installed enough?

[@nineball039]

One intake and one exhaust fan is probably enough. I prefer a positive pressure design - pushing air instead of pulling it - which in this instance, a second intake fan would provide. If you are running negative pressure - pulling air out of the case instead of pushing it you will see the results of dust buildup on the seams of the case. There are terabytes of discussions/arguments on the internet about negative vs positive pressure designs!

[@vincent5613]

Thanks man. I just dont want my Hardware to die from overheating so Im gonna be fine with whatever just works. It doesnt have to be the perfect design.

[@nineball039]

lol - a typical case fan costs $6-$8, comes with mounting screws, connector cable and will plug right into your motherboard! Good luck.

[@vincent5613]

Alright so ill just get some extra ones and install them on the front.

[@nineball039]

Just a quick note (without meaning to sound insulting): on the side of the fan will be a small arrow indicating the airflow direction. For a front intake fan, you want the air blowing inwards. You can check the airflow direction with a piece of paper once the fan is powered up.

[@verse3803]

Did The meshify c temp g chassi inclued a i/o shield beacause i cant find it

[@jackfolloway3354]

Double check the box/packaging for your motherboard -- the I/O shield should come with that, rather than the case. (see an example @ 0:38 )

[@stephenjones9704]

could i fit a Noctua NH‑D15S in this case?

[@krisztian317]

What do you think guys,is there plus 4cm between the front fan and the 1080? Thanks!

[@ahmedalyassjeen9838]

How do I know which screws to use?

[@sethlong7087]

yes I am confused what screws to use for the fans too. I just bought this case and wanted to add 2 more 120mm fans. They arrive in 2 days and I don’t know what screws to use. Looks like I’m just gonna try the 3.5 inch hard drive screws and hope for the best unless someone else can answer me

[@wolfgaming8927]
