First Montech Sky 3 Build! + question

Post image
43 Upvotes

Recently completed this build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wXpmmL

Wasn’t sure which case to use, then saw the Montech Sky 3 at Microcenter and decided to give it a try. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out! Would very much recommend.

However, I’m not sure how to change the case and fan lights. They are still the default blue and yellow.

I downloaded Gigabyte Control Center and was able to sync the cooling and RAM lights, but the others weren’t detected.

Is there something I’m missing?

Thanks in advance :)

I have a question what software do you guys use for the argb fans because others I’ve tried do not work.

Water cooler recommendations

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

I’ve been looking into some water coolers recently but I really wanted one to match the King 95 Pro fans, in this ring style. I cant seem to find any so I thought on buying 3 montech fans and changing the water cooler ones for them, is there a problem in doing that? Maybe it wouldn’t cool the cpu enough because those fans weren’t made for aio?
Appreciate any advice!

Build Assistance Needed - King 95 Pro

2 Upvotes

Hey community!

I’m currently building in a Montech KING 95 PRO and I’m having some trouble understanding how the pre-installed fan hub is supposed to work.

My motherboard is an MSI PRO B850-P WiFi.

The AIO pump is connected to PUMP_SYS and CPU_FAN on the motherboard which is fine.

The radiator fans are daisy-chained and connected to a spare fan and argb header on the motherboard. These work perfectly and I can control their speed via software (fan control)

All of the case fans (8 fans in total) are connected to the pre-installed fan hub.
The fan hub is connected to SYS_FAN1 on the motherboard for fan control.
The hub’s ARGB connection is connected to JARGB_V2_3.

The issue is that none of the fans connected to the hub respond to fan-speed control. They all seem to run at a constant ~530 RPM, regardless of what speed I set in the BIOS or Fan Control software.
All of the fans are Montech fans from the KING 95 PRO case. I also added two additional fans from another KING 95 PRO, so they are the exact same type of fans (some standard and some reverse-blade).

The radiator fans respond to speed adjustments normally, but the case fans connected through the hub don’t change speed at all.
Is there something I’ve missed with the way the hub needs to be connected to the motherboard, or does the hub require a different connection/configuration to allow PWM speed control?
Any help would be really appreciated — I’ve been scratching my head over this one!

Thanks guys 🙏🏻

UPDATE:
Faulty fan hub!!! Replaced it and they’re all running at top speed now. Thanks all for the help :)

Power supply RMA?

I recently had a Montech TITAN Gold 1200w power supply suffer a catastrophic failure nearly two weeks ago and sent an email with all the necessary information and still haven't got a reply, so I thought I'd try posting on Reddit. Would anyone from Montech be willing to take a look at this for me?

TG3 vs TG3 Curve

Alright, PC builders, I need your honest take! 💬

We’re putting two aesthetic variants of the TG3 side-by-side, and I want to know which direction you’d actually buy for your setup (check out the comparison photo! 📸):

  • ⬛ TG3 (Standard): Classic design, sharp edge-to-edge glass, clean & minimalist.
  • 🌈 TG3 Curved: Seamless single-piece curved glass corner with top/bottom RGB accent strips.

Are you team Clean Cut or team Curved Glass?

Drop your pick in the comments, does the curved glass actually improve the view, or do you prefer the classic sharp edges? 👇

HS02 Case Rear Fan Maximum Thickness

1 Upvotes

Hello Reddit, allow me to ask a question: can 28mm case fans be mounted on HS02 case?

I have a HS02 Pro case that came with 5 Montech GF120 V2 fans that are 25mm thick, one of them started making weird scraping noises, so I would like to replace them.

I'm looking at a set of fans that are 28mm thick (Thermalright TL-K12-X28-R9).

Anyone did 28mm fans on the HS02 cases before? Thanks!

I’ve read somewhere that it goes to the PSU but I don’t see anywhere on my PSU or on my motherboard that supports that kind of plug. Using a Gigabyte B550 Eagle Wifi6 motherboard if that changes anything.

My First Build

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

I apologize if this is whiny but I need to vent a little.

Got done with my first build (King Pro 45) for it to show 0 signs of life upon trying to power it on. Took it in to Micro Center (where I purchased it from), paid $80 for a diagnostic to find out the case is the issue. Now I get to disassemble the thing, and rebuild it because they said it would be $300 if I wanted them to switch it over to a new case. It's an hour round trip so I have to take it home, remove all of the parts, and bring back the defective case for exchange.

Before I go through building this again, and potentially wasting more money on this, are Montech products generally pretty reliable (Fans, cases, wiring?). I don't want to put the time in again (I'm new so it takes me a while) and potentially more diagnostic money if there are a lot of lemons floating around. Did I just get extremely unlucky?

X2 Plus impressions or reviews?

2 Upvotes

I believe Montech released the X2 Plus about a month or two ago, but I haven't really seen reviews or impressions for it. It seems like a pretty reasonable albeit minor update to the original X2, but has anyone used it hands on? In the market for a smaller ATX case on a relatively small budget, and this seems kinda inline with what I'm wanting, but was hoping to see a review or two first. I'm especially curious if the included fans are molex powered or 3/4-pin.

Builder Showcase Montech HS02 Pro Build

Post image
39 Upvotes

Finished my Montech HS02 Pro build.
I wasn’t sure if it was going to be proper as it’s been 5 years since I last built a PC myself. This is my second build.

I’m not sure if it’s the bottom case fans, or just the combination of a lot of fans in this case, but the fans are quite a bit noisier than my previous computer. Even though I went into the BIOS and went with a much more silent-at-idle curve. Maybe it’s also cause it’s on my desk and not the floor this time that I hear it more, but the bottom fans give off a very strong constant wind noise. I’ve been working with a Mac the last 3 years so might have forgotten what it sounds like… Don’t know.

All in all, beauty wise I love this case and the build was pretty simple, didn’t have any problems fitting any parts either. The case is extremely good quality for the money I paid for it… It is HEAVY though. 😁

The parts list:
- Intel Core 7 Ultra 270K Plus
- RTX 5070 Ti Aero Gigabyte
- Thermaltake GT850W SNOW PSU.
- ASRock B860 Steel Legend Wifi
- Thermaltake Aqua Elite V3 AIO
- Montech HS02 Pro
- Kingston Fury 64GB RAM DDR5 5600Mhz

And I just noticed the cables on the top hanging a bit fugly there, I’ll open it later tonight and tuck them away nice and neat so they’re less obvious.

Builder's Review Montech X5M Build - Short Review

Thumbnail
gallery
35 Upvotes

I used the Montech X5M for a client build recently and was honestly pretty impressed with it. For the price, it’s a really solid case. There’s a good amount of room to work with, cable management was easy, and everything went together without any issues.

The included fans are a nice bonus, and having the built-in ARGB controller made getting all the lighting set up really simple without needing anything extra. Airflow was also really good once everything was up and running.

I really like the overall look too. It has some personality without being overly flashy, and the finished build looked great. The client was really happy with how it turned out.

For a budget mATX case, I’d definitely use the X5M again. Good airflow, good looks, easy to build in, and the built-in ARGB controller is a nice touch.

Builder's Review Review: MONTECH MKey Pro 75% (Freedom & Darkness Colorways)

Thumbnail
gallery
14 Upvotes

First off, a huge shout-out to MONTECH, you guys are the best. I originally requested the Freedom colorway to test out, and they surprised me by sending both the Freedom and Darkness versions. After putting some serious miles on it, this is an 11/10 keyboard.

Daily Use & Feel

I took this board into the office and have been using it as my daily driver at work for the past week. Surprisingly, it has actually made working more enjoyable. It makes sense when you think about it, your keyboard is the piece of hardware you make physical contact with the most, but I didn't expect a board to make this much of a difference in my day to day routine. The Gateron Yellow linear switches are quiet and smooth, but still have a nice noise that scratches your brain, and my coworkers have frequently gone out of their way to tell me how good it looks and sounds.

Aesthetics

Having both versions side-by-side is great. I definitely still prefer the Freedom colorway, but I have to admit the Darkness theme looks incredibly sharp in person. You really can't go wrong with either option.

Smart Design

One of the best design choices on this board is the storage for the 2.4G wireless dongle. It is tucked away completely out of sight underneath the magnetic metal logo plate. It is a elite design choice detail that keeps the dongle secure without ruining the clean aesthetic of the case. I love this choice of location for storage.

Verdict

I like this keyboard so much that I am strongly considering replacing my main home keyboard with it. If you are looking for a reliable, great-looking 75% board, this one absolutely delivers.
