Nzxt have a biger hub where you can connect all the fan. What do you think about this ? For mobo with less connector

[@Chris34720]

Just finished my build it's a beast thanks for all your videos 😜

[@spitfyre1085]

I haven't owned any NZXT motherboards yet, but that N7 Z790 looks so clean. Nice build. Love your content.

Thanks.

It is made by ASRock. I have used many of their boards and have not had issues, unlike the Asus trash I've dealt with.

This was a really good video! I enjoyed all your commentary during the build process. One question, did you have to buy that cpu bracket/holder thing separately or did it come with one of the purchased parts?

[@CJKnowsTECH]

Thanks. The CPU bracket is a separate purchase

Yea I get aftermarket cables that are flat to fit through them slots better. I'd have suggested that route specifically with that case as cable management is a considerable pain for this case. Great video too.

Whats with the fans not syncing up? Is that by choice?

[@TheAT1974]

so its ok to have liquid cooled or aio as exhaust on top?

[@Ramon_92]

Having a bit more juice in youre PSU is defenitly reccomended you made the right choice bro ! You do NOT want to have to completley change youre entire PSU just to upgrade youre GPU for example . Why not show the benchmarks tho when you where done ?

[@CJKnowsTECH]

I'll be doing benchmarks and gameplay performance in upcoming video...

Unless your care about efficiency. Best to use twice what the system components draw.

[@thomasenright5282]

The only thing I don't like about the white cases that NZXT do is that the wiring that come with it are black, if they were white I think it might be better.

[@sari-c6b]

Nice video! Did you have to update the bios for this intel cpu?

[@RGR465]

What an awesome screwdriver you got ,, bam bam 😂

[@V-effect]

I have this NZXT motherboard with the Same 14th Gen i7 CPU. However, will the motherboard require a bios flash update since I keep hearing people having issues with the motherboard since they only function with a 12th and 13th Gen cpus. So I'm wondering how he managed to get to work?

[@carcar5911]

Never seen one of your videos. Im liking so far. I have a question. Im building my first pc and i bought pc part pickers amd magnificent build parts. Im wondering do i have to buy more fans? I bought whatever was in the parts list. Its the next flow case as well. So those 3 intake fans.. 2 fans on the graphics card. 2 fans on the air cooler for the cpu and 1 fan on the power supply.. is that enough??

[@EanEan-zu3vx]

did the i7 stay chill or get cooked?

[@asterix6085]

Did u get the nzxt hub with the case or u had to buy it separately? awesome build btw!!!

[@summermarsh9053]

Hey so I’m building a similar build to yours so I was wondering does it really matter what type of ssd card I put in the z790?

[@cobb8613]

how do you control the rgb of the ram? knowing that the nzxt software does not support this function.

[@VoltaFPS]

u just download your ram manufacturer software 🤷‍♂️😭

[@cobb8613]

@@VoltaFPSthank you

[@qwickskope4023]

With the fans in exhaust against the aio will it not be pushing the warm air into your aio or does that not matter ?

[@connorcook5]

from every build ive seen i dont think it matters.

[@CubeEarthTheory]

The fans blow through the radiator to exhaust heat out the top. No other way of doing it unless it's completely outside the case.

[@AI-clips3]

DO U have a video of this but black and with a amd cpu

[@frankpatterson9682]

Currently running Stage 1+ (93) on my MK8 Golf R…been enjoying it so far. Want to eventually go Stage 2…and I’m open to testing other tuners

[@7kzone]

I’ve been wanting to upgrade my codex R with a 4060, I was thinking to upgrade to an I7 13700kf, rtx4070, add AIO, 32gb of ram, but I wanna reuse my msi motherboard, I bed this case would be perfect for this build and I just wanna upgrade for VR and just to be safe, opinions?

[@chandranellore]

Did you added WiFi card

[@BoysLiketoHaveFun-t8s]

I tried screwing in the fans and it wouldnt go further than 50% of the way the bottom fans and the side fan Edit: Fixed turns out my screwdriver wasnt that strong so it didnt work, fixed it manually great vid

[@styledsalt]

can it be paired with other types of 4080?

[@CJKnowsTECH]

Yup

[@cbastien92]

Are you aware that intel is changing the socket next year and newer cpu won’t fit in 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@fluuwu]

Loved the video! There's only 1 thing... why... just why did you put black 140mm in the bottom on a white case xD

[@CJKnowsTECH]

Easy answer: Those were the ONLY color available at my local Microcenter...and I knew I could change them in the future

[@fluuwu]

@@CJKnowsTECH that's a good point. Great build though :)

[@CubeEarthTheory]

​@CJKnowsTECH but you used a black PSU 😂 I used the Thermaltake Snow because NZXT doesn't have a white supply yet. I also like their silent switch that keeps the fan off unless the PSU reaches 30% load.

[@pratyushtyagi7001]

Hey CJ amazing build man! I am considering building a pc myself too with the nzxt intel motherboard and also the intel i7 14700k CPU. I put it in pcpartpicker and it says I might need to update the bios so I was wondering if that happened to you during this? Thanks

[@dimondobrik]

m2_1 and pci-e 5.0 slots will not work with 14th generation processors without a BIOS update

[@loganmitchell7017]

Hey CJ. I’m actually planning on doing a build very similar to this. Will I only need 1 NZXT fan/rgb controller if I do the same 9 fan configuration as yours?

[@CJKnowsTECH]

So the nzxt kraken aio came with its own RGB fan controller and I used one additional nzxt RGB/fan controller in addition to that one.

[@CubeEarthTheory]

There are also 4 NZXT RGB 4-pin connectors on the the N7, two at top and two at bottom. An issue I had was the rounded 3-pin from the RGB controller that goes to a header and has no clip retainer. It doesn't fit tightly and falls off easily. I had to ziptie the wire to another nearby (USB, I think) wire to keep it connected.

[@CubeEarthTheory]

I used only the one included controller to do the 3 AIO fans, 3 case fans, and one rear fan. I don't recommend fans on the bottom because they will most likely drive up GPU temps. Something about turbulence inside the case, I think.

[@Kobies_14]

why noy use an ARGB fan hub, it makes everything a lot easier.

[@NZXTglobal]

Hold up, real nzxt?? (you should make gpus ngl)

[@bigpapi3975]

Can I build this inside my h7 flow I don't know nothing about computers

[@scottspirlock9701]

I’m guessing yeah because the h7 is slightly bigger but I would still check all of the dimensions

[@EpicByte_bs]

Price?

[@kamrynmartinez4773]

Can the kraken 280 cooler fit in a h6 flow?

[@Lucid37680]

280 is smaller than 360 so yes

[@CubeEarthTheory]

The power supply should be about double what the components max draw is because they operate most efficiently at 50%. How to open boxes without tearing? I call it a knife.

[@g_avinnn]

Wouldn't it have been cheaper to go with the 4080s? Pretty sure it's a decent amount cheaper and it is a better gpu

@@CubeEarthTheory If I ever get a pc unless it’s expensive enough for a 4090 there’s no way I’m not getting an AMD card. Like if you can afford a RX 7900XT or XTX then why would you get anything else? lol

[@MireyaCerda-t4d]

[@Terimayki]

Hi, I have a question, I got a laptop which supports NVMe m.2 pcle gen 4 ssd. I currently have 512 gb capacity and i want to upgrade it to 2 tb. Well I was sure that i could do that without any problems but just to make sure i checked with the manufacturer and they told me i can only upgrade to 1 tb capacity . Now i am confused. Is there really a limit to ssd capacity upgrade? Tbh it doesn’t make sense to me. Why a laptop which according to the manufacturer can support a 1 tb ssd cannot support 2 tb ssd of the same gen? I mean i am not trying to put in a gen 5 on a gen 4 slot. It has got me smh and i cant find nothing on the internet to help me

[@CubeEarthTheory]

It wouldn't matter as all generations are backward and forward compatible. You can put Gen 4 in Gen 5 slot or Gen 5 in a Gen 4 slot. The speed will be restricted to the lowest Gen. If they have a 1TB limitation, I'd think it's due to their controller.

You should have managed all the fan cables before you even unboxed the PSU lol.
