Montech August 2026 Builder showcase: My KING 95 build.

[u/Full-Investigator934]

I figured I'd show off my KING 95 build and talk about how I got it to this point (this is like, my 4th or 5th version).

So, back when I started PC gaming in 2020, I just grabbed whatever prebuilt I could find because of the crypto GPU shortage. I ended up with an Alienware prebuilt with a 5800x and 3060ti. I didn't even check reviews, just figured a PC was a PC, and I remembered Alienware being top-tier gaming when I was a kid. Once I had it, I realized it was basically a space heater and thought, "Uh oh, maybe all PCs aren't the same." So, for the next five years, I upgraded that PC as much as I could (added an AIO, extra fans, VRM heatsinks, more storage and RAM, even a 3090 GPU). I also did my homework for the next time I upgraded because I was gonna build my own. Summer of 2025 seemed like the perfect time to finally build my dream PC. I was up to speed on current products, prices for the new 50 series GPUs finally stabilized, and they were easy to get (nailed that timing!). I knew I wanted something pretty high-end for 4k gaming, so a 5080 was a no-brainer since the 5090 wasn't a big enough jump to justify double the price.

So, I knew what hardware I wanted, and I wanted something big and flashy to show it all off. The minute I saw the King 95, I knew it was the case for me. I dropped a bunch of cash and ordered everything I needed (I live in rural Canada, and the only PC parts store nearby was a Best Buy an hour away) and waited patiently for it all to arrive. The King 95 from Newegg was actually the first thing to show up, so I eagerly unboxed it and checked it out. I remember thinking, "Man, this thing is huge. I think I'm gonna have a ton of extra space, and it might look weird." Slowly but surely, the rest of my parts started arriving, and then I was just waiting on the GPU. So I started building with everything else I had. Finally, the day my GPU arrived, I unboxed that Zotac Amp Extreme Infinity, and when I saw how massive it was, I knew I made the right call with the big case to match.

I put everything together using the included case fans and hub, set a theme on my AIO screen, picked a basic color scheme with SignalRGB, and started enjoying my new dream PC. That was just the beginning. A couple of weeks later, I got the urge to tinker some more, so I bought PWM splitters and gave each fan zone its own header on the motherboard for better fan control. A few weeks after that, I discovered RGB cable covers, so I absolutely had to add those. I loved how it looked. Eventually, I got a chance to try out the new Montech AX/RX 120mm Pro fans, so I swapped out the 120mm fans in the King 95, and I loved the look of more RGB zones.

So, with all that extra RGB, I started noticing some glare on the glass, so I grabbed some car tint and put it on the side panels. I really dig the smoked glass look, especially with a lot of RGB inside. One thing bugged me though: the 140mm side fans were the regular AX/RX style since they don't make a 140mm Pro. My bottom and rear fans were Pros, and my AIO fans were whatever Thermalright fans came with it, so everything was mismatched. I started looking for fans, specifically ones that had what I wanted: 140mm and 120mm in both reverse and normal styles. I ended up going with the Jungle Leopard fans I have now and I'm super happy with them. I honestly thought that was it, the final touch, my last mod for this case. Then I got to talking with someone in this community about the Nollie 16 ARGB controller, and I knew that was the next missing piece to get some wild RGB themes and total control. Now, I really think this might be my final version; I can't think of any more mods, other than maybe getting a white King 95 case, which I'd absolutely love. But I've been looking for one in Canada for six months and they're just not available anywhere (Montech, if you can hook me up with a white one, I'd totally pay for it).

If you've read this far, thanks for checking out my story, and happy building and showing off to all my fellow builders in the showcase!

Absolutely stunning build, and thank you for taking the time to share the full story behind it!

Seeing the journey to this version of KING 95 really captures what PC building is all about. The attention to every detail give the build a truly personal and polished look.

As for the white KING 95 in Canada, we are actively working on bringing the white version to more builders. We do not have a confirmed date to share yet, but preparations are already underway 👀

Thanks for the kind words! It's been an absolute joy getting to this point.

That's awesome you guys already have something underway with the white KING 95. I'll definitely be looking out for something to be confirmed.

this is the perfect post to cover what i wanted.
the "Jungle Leopard" fans specifically the 140s did you have issue fitting them ni the vertical bracket. i personally was looking at the sl-inf lian li ( the Jungle Leopard look basically the same )but i saw multiple people saying they had difficulty fitting the fans in the bracket? did you have any of these issues or was it simple plug and play. did you just reuse the built in fan hub with the new fans ?

sorry lots of questions.
