works perfectly fine. its hella overpriced just for the aesthetics but you already know that

#

depending on your needs you could downgrade to 7800x3d

#

Why hella overpriced I used cheaper fans what is overpriced in it?

drowsy plover
#

mobo, AIO, fans, case, vertical mount....

#

fans are anything but cheap brodie 🙏

granite smelt
#

Gotcha so basically if I went for all black the build would be a couple hundred cheaper is what ur saying

drowsy plover
#

yes

granite smelt
#

Build is good tho? Besides that

#

Ok cool

drowsy plover
#

yes

granite smelt
#

I’m down for that to have all white lol thx man

drowsy plover
#

the build will work perfectly

granite smelt
#

Thx 🙏

#

Saved me 800 bucks lol this will be my first build

#

Last question @drowsy plover sorry.
Let’s say I want to upgrade gpu in a year or 2 I will be ok as far as psu and cooling ?

#

Trying to think if it’s smarter to wait for the new gpus coming out or just send it on a 5080 rn
9070xt performs the same tho when u undervolt it so I don’t see a point

drowsy plover
#

oh nvm that was someone else. 9070xt

granite smelt
#

Yeh

drowsy plover
#

basically.. you dont wanna go for a 5080

#

for 1100€+ this is disappointing

granite smelt
#

Yeah

#

So 9070xt is the best gpu out rn basically as far as value

#

From what I’m reading

drowsy plover
#

also a 9070xt will not need upgrade in a year or two

granite smelt
#

1080ti reincarnated lol

drowsy plover
#

yes

#

its a 16gb card with good clocks for under 700€

#

while nvidia insists on 850€ for their 5070ti

granite smelt
#

Ok thx so I’m gonna do this build

#

I’m hyped

drowsy plover
#

also your psu wattage is overkill for this build but you can keep it if youd like for future upgrades(?)

granite smelt
#

Yeha

drowsy plover
#

though as i said, the 9070xt wont need an upgrade for a very long time

granite smelt
#

Sweet

#

I have a 3070 rn gonna give that pc to my gf probably

drowsy plover
#

i mean youre buying a high end gpu. obv its gonna last

granite smelt
#

Thought I need reverse fans but it doesn’t matter right

#

That’s just for looks as well?

drowsy plover
#

forward / reverse is the direction in which your fan pushes the air

#

you want reverse for intake and forward for exhaust

#

you can flip them but it looks kinda bad

granite smelt
#

So those 3 pack fans in the build are correct? I put those on bottom right

#

I just don’t wanna install it incorrectly lol

drowsy plover
#

lemme check

#

ok so you have 2x3 reverse and 1x forward?

#

aka 6 intake and 1 exhaust?

granite smelt
#

So those 3 packs are reverse ok yeah. And the aio is also exhaust on the top

#

Exhaust on top and 1 in back

drowsy plover
#

aha yes

#

thats good

granite smelt
#

Ok so I’m good

drowsy plover
#

side and bottom are intake, rear and top are exhaust

granite smelt
#

Yeah

#

So those fans are correct?

#

I didn’t see it say reverse

drowsy plover
#

yes

granite smelt
#

Thx for the help
