Perfectly Good Phanteks NV5/NV9 Video Trolled By Steve

[@ohdubwest7533]

I guess seeing Paul and Steve in the same video proves that Steve isn’t just Paul wearing a wig. One less conspiracy theory to worry about.

[@natesergent2889]

That’s just what big tech KZbin would like you to believe 🤔

[@eugenepark9665]

Nope, this video was edited by AI to make it *appear* as though Paul and Steve are distinct biological entities

[@Designsecrets]

well we didn't see them side by side

[@SirGingerOfKnight]

Steve is referred to as a "Thirst Trap" to a friend of mine; She calls Paul's Hardware "SFW Steve"

[@fepethepenguin8287]

Ya video editing is super easy theses days... didn't you notice it go all dark and low quality 🤔🤔🤔

[@joeldh7567]

Thanks Steve...

[@purplegill10]

Ive always loved seeing you and Kyle interact. It was back during the Yolk'd era of newegg that I built my first PC and it's awesome to see you guys still friends after all these years.

[@zZzManzZz]

The good old days.

[@DMan-ud6bt]

Ah, back when I first started watching them along with Linus when he was with NCIX.

[@Discarded_Youth]

Video idea: Paul specs and builds a PC, Steve reviews it and Lyle does a reaction video about how unhappy Steve is with the build quality.

[@Discarded_Youth]

……and Jay makes a video three days later titled “I really didn’t want to make this video”

[@benjaminoechsli1941]

​@@Discarded_Youth Just for Linus to recap the whole thing on WAN Show.

[@ImOnMy116]

This comment thread is absolutely hilarious, all the kudos to you all!!

[@swizzler8053]

​@@Discarded_Youth 🤣🤣🤣👌

[@TheRealSkeletor]

Who the heck is Lyle?

[@dragon2knight]

I love seeing all of you "Fancy YT Guys" interacting at these shows, it's great to see 😊 I definitely want to check out those power supplies, they have done good on the way their going to sell them. I also want to try out those easy connect RGB fans, lots of choices thankfully. Great job as always Paul (and Joe!!).

[@Phanteks]

Can all 4 of you just come at the same time every year. That'd be great.

[@BoneBullet]

That was so nice of you to show that Steve guy the ropes.

[@Real_MisterSir]

I'm just here for the random Steve interactions, here and also with Der8auer. It's the true multiverse MCU wishes they could be

[@crh18]

5:42 a wild Steve appears! and 8:43

[@ohdubwest7533]

Paul uses Confusion! It was super effective!

[@xavierortiz1294]

Loving the Phanteks products, the design team is really going all out.

[@EmoEmu]

I like that they've decided to target a high-end enthusiast segment while also going for clean aesthetics. That's the combination I prefer and it's nice to have others that Lian Li to choose from.

[@redaffix7320]

@@EmoEmu They already nail the low-mid range cases with the p300a/400a, so why not take that design philosophy to the high-end? Great alternatives to the vanilla Fractal or Corsair stuff.

[@klorslug]

5:40 If you lift that big bushy mane, you’ll see the shirt actually reads “Tech Jesus”

[@avi4796]

Thanks for all the updates Paul. Excellent stuff !!

[@esaedvik]

5:55 That's like CANDY, holy jeebus that's gorgeous.

[@IT10T]

Really cool to see how all these content creators fundamentally, created an industry from scratch and built a brand that revolves around a person. Or in some cases, many individuals as an embodiment. This is impressive when you really consider how much work and dedication to computers, informing the people, and making connections/networking has to happen, they managed to take a little niche sliver of the market, and evolve it into a mainstream relevant and profitable business. But it truly is business as usual at Computex this year, and all the creators that helped to build up the value of this platform as a media outlet in -not only gaming, but computer/IT sector as well- *_the world_* really do deserve to enjoy themselves and reconnect with each other. Cheers

[@costafilh0]

Imagine this 06:50 with those new motherboards with connectors on the back and a 180 degrees power adapter for the gpu with a hidden cable on it's back. We are getting to the point of pinnacle eye candy clean build!

[@johntotten4872]

Paul, GN Steve and Kyle a true trifecta of goodness. Great video Paul.

[@krjal3038]

Seeing Steve GamersNexus and Leo Kitguru chatting amiably in the background and all the interactions between the best tech youtubers around has been my highlight of this reunion Computex. It's not some marketing bs "youtube community", it's an actual *community*. Thanks for this highlight video, Paul! Phanteks aren't usually my kind of style but I can't fault the quality of their designs. There are some great ideas especially around making things optional and modularity. I didn't think I'd ever consider a PSU that doesn't include cables but Phanteks is making it sensibly.

[@benjaminoechsli1941]

Wendell from Level1Techs mentioned hunting you down in his Computex video. Could it be Tech Jesus beat him to it? ;P Shipping cables separately from the PSU when you'd just discard the ones that came with anyway is a great idea!

[@xraymind]

Wendell was in TechYesCity's video today.

[@paulshardware]

We did have dinner with Wendell already but might see him again tonight. It's been awesome how much time I've been able to spend just hanging out with fellow Tech creators on this trip, I could not be happier!

[@khyron6]

Nice. Thanks for the vid. Keep em coming.

[@PatrickPoet]

For most things I only care about performance. A fan, for example, should move air as appropriate to it's use and be quiet. LEDs don't affect either of those so I don't care about them. You can stick them on if you want but I won't pay extra for something I don't care about. It's the same for memory or graphics cards, or anything, really. I never look at my computer when I'm using it so I get zero benefit from LEDs. I really only look at my computer at all if something is wrong, I'm cleaning it, or I'm upgrading something. I worry that there will come a day when they charge extra for things without LEDs.

[@stormgear896]

I like this next generation of snap-on fans, I hope the manufacturers would come up with a standard that they can all use. It's a both win for manufacturers and consumers.

[@DarbTails]

Loved the way all of the different components look. Nice and fancy

[@WillParker322]

Need more "ambidextrous" cases. I would like to get 2 cases, a white one for the s/o and a black for me with one on the left of the desk, glass on right and the other on the right with glass on the left.

[@Marbeary]

This year Computex is fun, It is like where is waldo but for tech youtubers

[@sultanofsick]

A 1440p 5 inch screen to be put inside a case. What a time to be alive.

[@Tagiau]

I really hope Phanteks has sorted their led yellowing. I've loved everything else about my Halos except for whites being yellow. And I'll keep saying it, Phanteks needs to make a SYNCRO case. They already work with Seasonic, so why not use their adapter thing. Make it a threesome and add in Cablemod as well. Phanteks designed case with Seasonic Syncro and Cablemod cables, it's perfect. Keeping it inverted is a plus, but makes it an easy recommend and buy.

[@blackmennewstyle]

5:45 I can't believe how Paul got literally ignored by Steve from Gamers Nexus and Leo from KitGuruTech lol

[@iikatinggangsengii2471]

her comedy sense is abit lacking

[@JayzBeerz]

That NV5 case is going to sell well.

[@ericwinberg5302]

Was thinking the same thing. That needs a build soon please Phanteks and Paul!

[@dustinwenzel1446]

super stoked for a comparison on performance between all the new gear! Great video

[@IslamGhunym]

Steve and paul having a talk face to face. I am thinking of visiting computex next year just to see you guys gathered in person 😅 I specifically wants to see steve and hear his egotistical speach which I love the most 😂. I see myself in steve. I used to be that kind egotistical professional guy in my job as a doctor

[@psychotictactoe]

Phanteks make such good stuff, ive had my P600S for over 3 years and ive no urge to change it, the quality is amazing and building in it is a breeze.

[@dangerwr]

Dear Phanteks, Please make those fans with no lighting. Thank you.

[@mikebruzzone9570]

Good report I can tell were about to experience all of Paul's extra effort to cover Computex in specific ways in high detail. mb

[@marioalbertogonzalez]

Phanteks cases hold a special place in my heart; they were the cases I used the most when I really started digging into PC building. Love them.

[@zodwraith5745]

I like the removable shroud to access the back of the PSU. Building my wife's system was a certified nightmare. There was plenty of room for the PSU between the non-removable drive cage and back of the case, but the actual opening to pass it through wouldn't allow me to slide it in with the modular cables plugged in. It was a major PITA trying to plug the cables in with the PSU installed. You'd think by 2023 when HDDs are used so rarely they'd at _least_ make the drive bays removable on all cases. Especially when we're far past the days when PSUs were mounted in the top of cases and modular PSUs have been affordable for years.

[@KingBadger3d]

Love to see you out and about clearly enjoying yourself after little activity on your channel recently, great video's.

[@polus3626]

That NV5 case is sooooo nice! I just recently built a high-end all AMD build in the Lian-Li Lancool 216. After seeing that new case, part of me wishes I would've waited for it to come out.

[@raeferwilson2599]

I did too. Lancool 216 ROXXX

[@knghtbrd]

LOL Hi Steve! Phanteks does some pretty cool stuff. My last case was Phanteks. I went with a Corsair this time, and a Corsair cooler too. I've kinda regretted both decisions a bit. The case is kinda okay, and it's got a lot of features, but … I didn't ultimately have the option to use the ones I wanted to use together. Plus I'm mad at Corsair because when people asked them for info to talk to their hardware to write Linux drivers, they told us they had no desire to help us use their hardware. So … if that's what they want, sure.

[@zodwraith5745]

I hate that all the fan makers are going MORE proprietary, not less. I bought a set of 3 fans just a couple years ago and when one had the bearings go out recently I either had to hunt down the same model or replace them all because of those f*cking proprietary connections to their hub. I just tossed them all and made sure to buy only ones with industry standard connections. Especially when even staying with the same maker doesn't help as they constantly change their own shit. Segmentation is getting worse, not better.

[@vincentvega3093]

That led kit hopefully comes in larger sizes for the NV7 and NV9

[@kasper_429]

I wish Phanteks would bring back their silver and gray colorways for cases. The "Galaxy Silver" on the Evolv X (RIP) looked so good! Speaking of that, I wish they would bring the Evolv case series back!! I wanted an Evolv X for my next build, but I couldn't afford it at the time that it was actually available new. I'm tired of all the black and white rectangle boxes saturating the market, and the angular lines on the Evolv series looked so sick! Not to mention that case in general was awesome, inside and out. I know the P600S has the same internal layout, but it doesn't look as good on the outside IMO. If they do bring the Evolv X back, I want them to do a metal back panel like on the P600S, though. Double glass panels are so dumb, especially when the Evolv X had those cover doors to hide cables. Like what's the point? Lol.

[@RobAryeeArc]

8:22 Back to you Steve. Thanks Steve.

[@BSGNZ]

Paul, Steve AND Kyle??!! Find those Hardy Canadians and those unboxed Aussies too - PARTY TIME!

[@Omega_Mark]

12:14 Wow, they really mangled that tube.

[@Pead929]

Out of every NV9 video I chose this one because of it being posted by you and involving a Steve trolling. Happy days

[@GamersNexus]

but who is the camera?

[@cptwhite]

Kyle, Paul, Steve and Leo all in the same video. Just needs Linus and upside down Steve to complete the Techtuber no bullshit alliance.

[@juanmontoya3569]

Back to you, Steve

[@brandoniannn]

More steve+kyle+paul collabs please

[@outlet6989]

Steve, is it time for a ponytail, braids, cornrow, headband, or dread hairstyle look? I would love to see the crewcut look.

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

A lot of people are going for that Hyte type looking case with the 2 glass panels and doing the straight up and down GPU placement.. A friend of mine at work just did a build about 6 months back like that.. He used the 12700 and a 3070TI, I think.. We both did build's right before the new GPU's came out.. He went with the 3070 and I got the 6800XT. But anyway I love my White PHanteks P500A. It's a great case perfect size for these huge GPU's they are Making..

[@OmegaBlack999]

Nice.. Thanks, Paul!

[@MayonnaiseOreo]

I was one of those people really wanting an NV5 but I don't like that PSU shroud - it really gets rid of the super clean look that the NV7 has. I'll probably end up with the new Lian Li O11 EVO RGB.

[@nemesis851_]

Kinda expected to see a PostIt note “Steve was here”

[@DKarkarov]

Phanteks looking pretty solid at this computex. Definitely worth considering come new case time.

[@666Daheretic]

Honestly love the NV5. NV9 is too big. NV7 I actually thought was good sized.

[@SmoodGraphics59]

Can’t wait for the D30 AIO and the Vertical mount bracket Only two things I need to start building

[@danytoob]

That Steve dude... the nerve of him photo bombing your stuff. I oughta give him a piece of my mind. And if I knew him I would, too.

[@romangruber6685]

I'm envious that you are able to go to that place to see all those hardware.

[@istevens78]

I like the perpendicular gpu mount. Now we just need a motherboard manufacturer to put a PCIE slot on the back of the board to make it a really cleat set up.

[@Playingwith3D]

My Phantek p600 case was the first time my build looked like a professionally done build. I've been a phan ever since. 😝

[@Hoolagun]

The only negative with NV5 and NV7 is no 140mm fans :( otherwise it would have been the perfect case.

[@berndkemmereit8252]

I'm not surprised Paul likes the "Rubber Cover"...lol

[@frankwoolrich]

Leo (from Kit Guru) was talking to Steve, Great KZbinr from the UK :)

[@iikatinggangsengii2471]

uk gang

[@fragalot]

5:44 Tech Jesus!!

[@Cheeseypoofs85]

nice to see they are offering the screen in black as well. well done phanteks. i will be switching from my huge view 71 to this case with all d30 fans when its available

[@xyzwsfr]

Thanks Steve!

[@TechNinja.1701]

Steve doesn't know what to do with RGB. He's just there to see whether anything (eg PSUs, risers, cables) will catch fire and explode in dramatic fashion. 🤪

[@Rajonas007]

Steve is precious ❤ hope KZbin will never ruin him

[@vh9network]

I'm glad I gone with the NV7 and not the too big NV9 and or too small NV5. The little LCD screen add-on caught my attention though.

[@EmoEmu]

Oh no. An NV9 right after I bought two pairs of the D30 120mm version? Damn you, Phanteks, for making all this STUFF that I want!

[@EmoEmu]

The NV5 looks really nice as well. That layout makes a lot of sense if you don't want a giant monster of a setup. It's "only" large... ish.

[@nunya___]

Mission accomplished, now go have a beer Paul.

[@kittybierwirth8311]

So much coming. Going to be hard to figure out.

[@BJizzel21]

Phanteks just out here killing it!!

[@cyzcyt]

Can't wait for you to cover cooler master. All these new air flow cases is feeding my upgrade itch

[@Dan-Simms]

Paul, Kyle and Steve, oh my!

[@Wooskii1]

So how do you run the HDMI cable to the screen if you don't have something like a 1080TI with the front VR HDMI port? Do you use a Rpi/ SBC or something? Or do you run a HDMI cable from the outside into a hole?

[@earthtaurus5515]

@11:05 Micro USB for the LCD screen??? they should have gone for type-c and used that for display as well as power delivery. Personally, at the prices Phanteks are asking, they could have at least shipped some fans with these cases. I bought a Cooler Master H500M for £181.02 on 1st Oct 2019 and that came with two 200mm fans and a rear 120 mm exhaust as well as PSU shroud, gpu support arm, rgb controller, rear cover for the CPU, PSU and cables. Edit: also the front i/o has 4x 3.0 usbs, 1 type c, mic and headphone jacks.

[@morenoise8086]

Phanteks is one of my favorite tech companies right now.

[@jeremyschillinger917]

Video-bombing by Steve and Kyle. If we had Linus too, the internet might explode.

[@inari5506]

I guess I have to wait for my build until September/ October than. Well more time to save up some money.

[@TheRealSkeletor]

"Whoo!" - Paul, 2023

[@Iaretreytrey]

after I got my Phanteks T30 fans I wished I would've got the D30's but the only reason is because the T30s have higher RPMs and those ring LED add-on kits for them are much more of a pain in the ass than I initially imagined they would be.. I just ended up not even hooking up the ring lights onto the fans, well i mean they are on the fans, just not plugged in because they use that stupid weird connector for some odd reason.

[@iHasCaek]

yo, that little screen is gonna be good for sim racing/flight rigs

[@fanofentropy2280]

Hey Paul, if you happen to see ip69(nice) waterproof reversible fans, let me know. I need something like that for my out-the-window mounted radiator setup. I need fans to blow out in the summer, suck in in the winter and be waterproof year round.

[@GuyverGamingTV]

i like the little screen, would look cool in my enthoo lux 2 case

[@jonscot8393]

All Steve needs is a pair of High Heels and a handbag judging by that pose.

[@rodhester2166]

At that moment I wished you had scissors and some fake hair.. make that cut sound and hand the hair to him.... lmao..

[@boydw1]

Disappointed by how little trolling occurred in this video. Steve needs to up his trolling game.

[@Besotted85]

The case i just bought. Extremly good case, and fans!

[@hoofhearted4]

I just cant understand why they would leave the back cable management door off the back of the NV5. That is a main feature of the NV7, why leave it off it's smaller brother. I really want the NV7. but its a massive case. I really hope they come out with the option of the door or something. If so, I'm sold on the NV5. if not, I'll likely still get the NV7, but I'll be less happy about it. I have a Fractal Define S right now, and I really want a smaller case. NV7 is bigger.

As a canadian making us buy the power supply cables is a huge turn off. The cables are incredibly expensive over here and yes its because our maple dollar sucks but still it would push the cost up so much for us over here.
