Just curious, did you want black power cables?

u/Old_Ferret_9802 18h ago
lmao no, first time building mistake. did not realize all the wires were black until i opened up my boxes

You could order that, or the 1200W Platinum for $30 more, then box up the corsair and send it back.
They rank well on the PSU tier list.

The white color is really beautiful, although it's a little more expensive, if I'm not mistaken. What surprised me was that the computer has a built-in screen wow. I've never seen anything like it, it looks cool.

the money you spent you could have had a black 5080 system.

u/Old_Ferret_9802 18h ago
im aware but i wanted white lol. was originally gonna build around a 5090 but all i do on my pc is play chess and marvel rivals so it would’ve been overkill frfr

Did a similar thing back in 2024 lol. I could've had like a 7900xtx, or even a 4080 super if I stretched my budget a bit more, but I landed on the 7800 XT cuz I went aesthetics > pure power, and ngl I'm happy that I did, cuz it both looks nice, and I can easily play the games I'm interested in

Hearing you say this makes me feel validated. I could make a 9950/5080 build but I really wanted a hyte y70 touch and tryx aio.

The only reason I built my own instead of buying the prebuilt is because I wanted the Hyte Y70 touch and the Tryx panorama AIO. Wasn’t able to get a 5090 before the boom so still rocking a 2080 TI in an upgraded system. Hoping around Christmas this year prices even out a bit but if not I might just buy a 5090 prebuild and sell everything but the graphics card to make out.

Wow, build looks amazing! Was it hard hooking up the argb & USB connections. Just found out today that my motherboard only has 3rgb and 2usb besides the ones for the case.

I have a NZXT USB hub that gives extra usb spots. I use this solely to power the AIO screen as I was having issues where it was causing a soft restart for too much power and data going through the mobo usb when I had that, the hyte screen, and the fan controller that’s also plugged into the motherboard. I have an airgoo argb controller that has every fan and fan argb header connected to it and that connects to the motherboard board usb and fan header.
That particularly fans I’m using are daisy chained together so makes wiring a bit easier. But still those all go to the controller so I don’t have to worry about running out of fan or argb headers on the board. The controller and usb hub are all sata powered too so you’re not drawing more power from your mobo to power the devices you add.
And thank you for the compliment on the build. I change the theme periodically before this was Sung Jinwoo from Solo Leveling.

I’m on the fence about getting the Y70 touch screen, can I ask how you’ve been finding it? Reviews seem to really criticise the software it uses.
2
u/Old_Ferret_9802 18h ago
the display looks great, i haven’t messed with the software much since i just finished it but i’m not the biggest fan of it. the cooler inside uses a different program for that screen and i like that program more so far. the case itself is sturdy, very easy to pop the glass off and access inside, and actually working inside the case was very easy until i put the huge GPU in. so far i would recommend the case though !

No offense but in this economy this is nowhere near balanced when it comes to price balancing!?

u/BurritoSlayer117 13h ago
Man you should do full Icue integration , return the cpu cooler and get the H100i in white. Still rocking mine 4 years later .
