Thank you Phanteks for supplying the G400A case, the Revolt PSU, the Glacier One M25 gen2 aio cooler, and the M25 gen2 fans. Thank you Patriot for supplying the DDR5 6000 Viper Venom RAM and the Viper Lite 4300 SSD. Build Specs: CASE: Phanteks Eclipse G400A CPU: Ryzen 9800X3D GPU: XFX Swift 9070XT MOBO: Gigabyte B850 Aorus Elite RAM: Patriot Viper Venon DDR5 6000 64GB SSD: Patriot Viper Lite 4300 2TB PSU: Phanteks Revolt Platinum 1000W AIO: Phanteks Glacier One M25 V2 FANS: Phanteks M25 V2 120mm Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/renegade_rabryn Follow me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/renegade_rabryn Here’s my thoughts on this build: -The Phanteks G400a is incredible value. The 4 included M25v2 fans make this case a wind tunnel. I ran the fans at 30% and had a very hard time getting the 9070xt temps above 60C while gaming(80C on the GPU memory). The case fans are quite loud once you get to about 50% speed but I never had to go above 30% speed, so noise wasn’t an issue for me. If you like big roomy cases, then this is a great case for you. The need to not have to buy any extra fans means any extra room in your budget can go to better components. - The Phanteks Glacier One M25v2 AIO is easy to install and wire. The performance is outstanding. My 9800X3D hovered around 60 - 65 under load for extended periods of time, spiking in the 70s from time to time which is normal. I ran the pump at 60% speed and ran the fans at 30% and forgot about it while I gamed, never worrying about my temps, which is what a good cooler is supposed to do. - The Phanteks Revolt Platinum PSU is a premium power supply (in partnership with Seasonic) that I do not recommend if you’re on a budget. This Power Supply is meant for the most demanding hardcore systems out there in my opinion. If you were to build such a system, one that you overclock the heck out of and have custom cooling, etc, then this would be a perfect power supply for you. If you’re building a system like the one in this video, a Corsair RMX or Seasonic Focus is my recommendation because this REVOLT is overkill. With all that being said, this Phanteks PSU is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. - This was my first time using Patriot Viper RAM. These VENOM sticks do a great job. The RGB on them isn’t really accurate, though. The white was kind of yellowish, and a few of the other colors seemed a bit off. The RAM was solid and stable though. - The Patriot Viper Lite 4300 SSD is a great SSD for gaming. This SSD lacks DRAM which is bad if you’re using your SSD to do a lot of writing. However, for a game drive, it's great. I’ve read that DRAMless drives aren’t ideal for OS drives but I couldn’t personally tell any difference. Perhaps this is a great "extra" drive for your system, but you might want to look at other drives for your main boot drive. Keep that in mind. It’s a tradeoff, though, because this SSD is very affordable.
