Even though the audio and video are not synced, still the build looks cool!
phew, I thought it was just me who thought something is wrong here 😅
I watched it a few hours ago and it worked fine, now it's not, weird
lol i called it
@@SkateClipsAndTips I figured maybe he was drunk while editing and put the sound clip in the wrong spot or something.
I’m a bit high at the moment and i thought i was tripping 😂
When the RGB fans in your pc are worth more than your gpu.
You mean worth more than your GPU and CPU combined lol. Prolly get a used 2080 for $200 and that 1700 for $50 on ebay. Those fans for a 3 pack cost $160. Greg put six in there so that’s $350 (with tax). One fan costs as much as the CPU on ebay lol
The fact that nothing matched and everything worked should at least be celebrated! Industry standards instead of walled off gardens of incompatibility like a dell system or Apple is an amazing thing that should be continued.
That being said I appreciate it was a massive sponsorship from corsair and the build did look sweet when you were done. The viewer wins, the channel wins, I am just glad the original pc could exist and function.
Not even audio 😝
Could you Imagine taking a water pump from a small block Chevy, and installing it into a Ford Pickup truck?
Say, 'yes' to NO, on proprietary parts!
Was pretty obvious this was a Paid Advertisement
When building or upgrading PCs it has never once been an issue to get "matching" components (apart from the obvious CPU/platform type and RAM). I am surprised anyone would think it matters.
@@reggiedixon2 I agree, using different brands is not a big deal you could have a ASUS motherboard, AMD cpu, corsair DDR, Nvidia GPU, Master Cooler AIO, Noctua fans, EVGA PSU, and an NZXT case... Who cares...
Holy moly this is what i call a transformation. Too bad the new Corsair products are so crazy overpriced 😅
More than his entire rig lol.
And they are already breaking
Corsair is starting to make Razer look Cheap... honestly
@@itsredthesmed Corsair consistently makes shit products in my opinion for too much money
It looks nice but believe it or not this could have been done easily without spending a ton of money.
Great transformation! However.... what is going on with the audio being mismatched to the video? This discontinuity is immersion breaking.
Greg was talking about pc and monitor ad is showing, thought that is weird
I'm getting the same issue
I thought maybe it was something wrong with my browser or something but other people are seeing this too.
What kind of landlord would keep a security deposit over some dust bunnies? Lol
is it just me, or the audio a bit mismatched? at 6:43, in audio you are talking about the mainboard selection, but in the video, you are seems to be explaining the cases.
but great video content as always. always looking forward to watch.
I've noticed the same thing
The kit from Corsair cost more them the rest of the pc!
ryzen 1700 in this build is like a homelss man in a ferrari lol
Hey Greg good luck on the house! Let’s hope there aren’t any unexpected issues hahaha
Other than the darn turtle, so far so good! :-D Thank you!
@@GregSalazar make sure there isnt 3 more of them and a rat
@@VRPocstars And some crazy guy roaming around the neighborhood wearing a hockey mask and armed with a hockey stick and bat.
@@willn8664 Anyone can make a Ninja Turtles reference...but it takes a real chad to make a Casey reference from the Turtles. True gentleman of culture you are, sir. Take my like and go.
Always Is issues with new builds.
Literally my dream build! When I saw their new fans I was instantly hooked, so much cleaner and easier to cable manage. One day I will upgrade, when I'm less poor lol
Learn to scrounge! I started off with an old I5 2400 DDR3 system a few years back that didn't even have a graphics card! Then I picked up a 750Ti for almost free. Then got a used 512G SSD to replace the spinning platter drive for helping a friend out. Went with that for a while while stockpiling parts, mostly from friends who I helped "upgrade" their stuff and didn't care about the old parts any more. A Ryzen5 2600 here, some DDR4 from there, an old 1060 graphics card... pretty soon I had almost everything I needed for my current rig, only shelling out $70 for a new AMD-compatible Gigabyte DS3H motherboard (ALL ROADS LEAD TO DS3H WHEN YOU ARE ON A BUDGET!) and $20 for a new/used case and some fans. Minus the sale of the old parts I have roughly ZERO DOLLARS in this rig. If I wanted fan/RGB bling I could drop some coin on it (even at Corsair's prices!) and still be way ahead money-wise now.
They are neat, but quite expensive. I hope something else with better value comes around for you! Keep saving :D
@@grandmasmalibu Your gonna struggle with a 1060 in 2023.
I love Corsair products I really do, and these new fans and ecosystem for the RGB is awesome, but the price... Damn man, they went hard with the price as well. Lovely build, I'm happy for Scott getting that upgrade, looks dope!
The software though well designed for ease of use, is objectively horrible on system resources to the point of being malware.
NOTE FOR GREG: Audio for the LG promotion is in the wrong place. It is like it was bumped in the timeline and disrupted another part of the sequence.
Very clean n’ sleek looking build🥹😎. Awesome cable management 😇👍. I’m sure the owner will be very happy with his improvements made to the pc 🥰🥰. Thanks Greg for looking out for fellow gamers, and to Corsair for their support of Greg’s channel 🥰😇👍
Thanks for watching!
Seems like the audio isn't cued up to match the video
Is it me or is the audio and video did not sync 😂😂 I'm watching this build at 3am and I may have hallucinated a bit. Nice transformation Greg! Always excited for your new uploads!
you're not hallucinating... it's out of sync.
For the people that have the video working just fine just know that for some of us there's about a minute to 2 minute delay between the audio and video.... (for example here on my end he's talking about removing the storage drives at 5:41 , that action is occurring at 4:17 for me) so yeah, its pretty confusing...
Hopefully this person upgrades soon from that ancient R7 1700. But this build is super clean!
That's quite a change! The rig might not benefit from 4000 RAM given it has an R7 1700. The memory controller on that CPU has some limits in that regard which may not have been remedied by any AGESA updates.
My R7 2700 can only max out to 2930, so it was for sure overkill.
I think the max you can get out of the 1700x is maybe 3600mhz. So you could tune the timings. Get them extremely tight. I'd personally stay @3200 cl14 with the 1700x.
I looked at doing this for my system but at $600 to fully populate the case (H9 Flow with 360mm AIO) compared to just dealing with cable management for less than $200 can’t be justified imo
I agree.
Too many fans doesn’t even help. Geek jewelry is so silly imo. It’s a tool people.
Hey Greg - definitely an excellent upgrade & transformation! What happened with the sponsor videos on this one though? The audio and video fall out of sync from very early on, it looks like the clips were inserted too early this time
Great build. Feel like it would've been better to keep it in the o11 though (i know i know overused case) but it just looks so good. Understand the corsair partner side of things though! Either way, super clean rig.
I don't know if it's just me but the video is *not* in sync with the audio.
i refuse to pay almost 200 hundred dollars for 3 fans not worth it 🤬🤬🤬
them fans more expensive than the dudes cpu
@@larbi253 For the cost of the Corsair bling, he could have upgraded the CPU and GPU!
@@RichWhiteUM that stuff i assume was given to him by corsair, but yeah overpirced af
@@larbi253 Yeah, I figured that much. I was just commenting on the price of the stuff.
Let's go corsair, those are some aesthetically pleasing components! NZXT is going to have to catch up or I might have to consider swapping over to corsair..
Is it just me, or is VoiceOver out of sync with what's showing on the footage?
Not sure why but the video is out of sync about 2 mins, Nice rebuild.
Is it just me or the audio and video arent synced
Man no matter how much I tried the sound is a mile off in this video.
@MrLiljoker1225 I could not watch the video because of it.
Personally i would have kept the same case, changed the motherboard and given him a CPU upgrade, that R7 1700 is on it's last legs, he really should consider upgrading to at least an R5 3600.
Edit: the build looks absolutely great, but again he REALLY needs to upgrade his CPU, hopefully that's in the plans considering now he has an awesome looking build to go with the potential upgrade.
We weren't upgrading CPUs/GPUs in this video. Heck we do that enough as it is in our other playlists. CPUs don't grow on trees around here 😅
@@GregSalazar honestly you did more than enough in just revamping this person's pc just by swapping the motherboard, yet you went an extra mile to swap the case, the latest Corsair tech and a vertical bracket. such a w guy.
I hate be a problem child but you do know A520 and B550 or x570 only 3rd Gen Ryzen or higher lol 😂 1st Gen Ryzen does Work on B350 or B450 👍
@@GregSalazar I understand CPU don't grow on trees, but a rig can look as beautiful as this one is, if it is slow like running on R7 1700, ah man, i digress, this is a fail. but if you did upgrade it than that's good. At least there has to be a follow up on the CPU.
@@hyde_official If he wants to upgrade the CPU he can do it himself easy enough, could get a Ryzen 5 3600 super cheap or just grab a 5600x they might even be on sale for prime day.
I knew there was a sponsor build coming when Greg was going on and on about how important it is to bring a build together with an all matching brand lolol
I never said it was "important." My _own_ build literally has mismatched hardware. There's nothing wrong with it. I only mentioned that sticking with the same brand can help unify a rig's looks - if that's a priority of yours :-)
@@GregSalazar I typically try to match most things to the same eco system as well. I find that there's always one part or another that just doesn't look as good as the rest. In my pc now I don't have any matching parts lmao But I chose everything based on looks so it all looks good and fits the "look" 😁
@@GregSalazaraside from looks, is there generally any benefits to sticking to one brand for a build?
@@sylvo1057 If those components use software or proprietary connectors it's nice to have several things connected to the same eco system. You can easily have a few different hubs behind the back panel or a few different instances of software running on your pc to control a bunch of different brands.
If I remember it right the first gen Ryzen had problems even running 3200 RAM, a lot of ppl had to settle with 2933 back then, did the system really run that 4000 kit @4000?
The build further looks pretty awesome.
Too bad it's from Corsair since I had a bad time with their customer service back in the days I have avoided them like the plague.. untill today because I needed a cheap low profile RAM kit for an ITX build I'm going to make, those parts are coming in today and yea.. the Corsair LPX kit was the best choice, 36 Euro for a 2x8 gig kit, so I had to swallow my pride on that one.
Yeah I had the same thought when I heard that too, my ryzen+ hates anything over 3000mhz so a first gen ryzen running 4000mhz sounds weird.
is it just me... but... the sound kind of... offset with the video?
the Audio is out of sync, really bad. Is it just me? no one else mentions it, and I hit f5 several times and its like watching an old Kung Fu movie with really bad Lip syncing.
That aside, great transformation! I'm fixated on matching most brands within a project, and it drives me crazy to see a machine built with a random firing parts cannon.
i thought i had a stroke.
Was it just I or was the audio and video not syncing for everybody..
Very nicely done, very appropriate! I think those ecosystem by Corsair really made the biggest difference!!
$50 per fan, come on Corsair. 😕
Well, as long as build on Corsair parts looks amazing then I need to say that... there was no reason to swap the motherboard if you mount the graphic card vertically. Nevertheless it's looks really great. Great job, Greg. :)
That would have been a good excuse to go Vertical.
Damn That cable management was so easy! Great look from Corsair AIO & fans. Unfortunately we haven't got the new line of products down under as yet.... We always seem to be behind.
Who cares that the manufacturers are different? I build for bang for buck, not theme or aesthetics......I don't even like clear side panels.
Like I said in the video, _of course_ it doesn't matter for performance. But it can be easier to build a clean rig with components that fall under the same ecosystem. Don't read so far into that hahah.
When you actually understand how each of the components functions down to its very basic level, pairing components that were very likely tested together in development will always give you the best stability and best performance 💯
@@jakehutchens yeah maybe if icue wasnt a piece of shit software
Sorry but was there something wrong with the audio?.all the hand waving and over dub made this one of your worst video you have posted.
Is the true. The out of audio and video sync starts at 0:04 but doesn't disturbs the episode's experience and Greg's beautiful work!
Just bought a used Lian Li Liancool ii Mesh Performance from a local guy who had recently moved to a mATX form factor. It was a local site auction and I snagged it for a whopping $39. Case is without a scratch...the original owner barely used it!
Impressed with the materials and smart design of this case. Dual tempered glass hinged side panels, with hinged lower doors, both left and right. Plenty of air flow with dual 140's and 1x 120. I moved the 120 to the lower front position, for flow over the storage rack, then brought in an RGB 120 for the rear exhaust. The right side tempered glass does not reveal cables because the unit also comes with metal shrouds to cover all cable runs. Looks very neat, with minimal cable management needed.
Would love to see of those brackets behind the fans impeed airflow and increase temps..
Amazing transformation!
Hey Greg, just went to watch the video and for some reason, it's like a good minute or so of the intro video footage got chopped which puts it way ahead of the audio - can see the iCue pelican case get opened at 0:22 but hear it opened all the way 1:46
Have a goodnight and be safe thank you again for the knowledge so I can expand it and hopefully teach you some new things.
Wow! That was a sweet makeover! I'm inspired now. Might just be an upcoming weekend project.
Something went wrong with the audio. I am hear about an lg monitoring and I see corsair products. At first I thought it was me, but I reloaded the video 4 times 😢
Hey Greg audio is totally unsynced with the video, it show something but the audio isn't related to part of the video is displaying
AWESOME Man! Just Flat Out AMAZING!
After swapping 75% of parts - "This does not look like same rig..."
Congrats on your thinking logical process. Also when did you become marketing brochure reader?
It seems the video wasn't matched up with your voice. Awesome video, Greg. This PC you made look 10x better

I'm genuinely surprised by the people who are so offended that you posted a sponsored video, big whoop. The viewer is happy, you made money off the sponsorship to continue posting other content on your channel, it's a win-win. People don't have to watch it if they don't want to, goddam.
Peeps, he doesn't owe the dude a new CPU lol. The viewer can always sell whatever was GIVEN to him for free and perform a massive upgrade, it's his choice.
This is great, love the finished look but got confused at start as audio didn't match the video so thought u had synced wrong video but was able to follow the video after turning sound down to barely heard!😁😭👍
All components different squad! I have an AMD CPU, an ASUS Nvidia GPU, an MSI motherboard, Crucial memory, Samsung and Western Digital Storage, a Corsair power supply and a Be Quiet! cooler, all in a Phanteks case! 😄
Very nice! I run a mismatched editing rig of my own hahah.
Is the video completely off from the audio for anyone else? I feel like its a youtube issue as I am seeing the stuff I'm hearing, but its all out of order. EG the ad plays while I hear about the AIO and ITX mb in ATX case.
Greg Salazar transformed me into a subscriber!
Well. Originally it was Science Studio
Ehh..something happened with the sync and content placement here!!Got a little confused there!!Your videos are so good and edited professionally, most of the time!!I just love your content, Greg!!
"the viewer is on board with this makeover '
Ya don't say?
I thought my sound was tweaking for a bit there with the sound and video not in sync, but seems to be an issue. Did a clip get cut after uploading?
my brain was going crazy with the desync in audio and video. Overall the build looks amazing.
I think something very weird happened with the audio(or the video), the audio for the sponsor spot is AFTER the sponsor video and the rest is all messed up after that, the heck happened here?
Amazing transformation.
Greg in La Furia Roja jersey is just....it's a perfection.🤝
Is that Sergio Ramos? 🤔
Greg has convinced me to switch to the iCUE fan system, but would the magnet from the fan hub somehow mess with the components of the mobo if it was mounted right behind it?
Been a while since I’ve seen a well built system. Good work. Looks amazing.
Is the video and audio out of sync? Iv tried on my phone and PC and everything seems way off.
Had to read the comments to make sure I wasnt carzy lol the audio was off but still a great video the build came out super clean especially with that 2080 mounted that way.
Anybody else grimace when they saw the video card laying on the carpet like that?
Just wondering if you ca re upload with the video/sound synced its out of wack by about 30sec
PC Function for price first Brand second.. I user Signal RGB to sync lights from all my brands. EVGA PS, Gigabyte MB and GPU, MSI Case, G.Skill Ram Works great and I look for the best FUNCTION / Prive I can get. Then I solved the only compatiblity issue ARGB with tool. One Brand might excell at RAM but not MB or GPU etc. Oh yes NZXT AIO :) But You did a great job and I will be looking at iCUE in a few years when its new build time.
off brand? youll definitely love my off branded pc
I literally rebuilt my editing/gaming rig with completely mismatched hardware LOL. Idk why people are reading so far into that statement. I just think sticking with the same brand for everything _can_ help with the overall aesthetic in many cases (not to mention software unification).
Yes It's nice to have matching parts but not necessary
That an itx in a BIG atx case!
My brain hurts trying to sync the video and audio. 😆
Wow, I can’t even finish this. Audio and video d synced to the max. You gotta fix it! Seen comments saying everything was fine earlier when the vid dropped but this is crazy! I’m sure once it’s fixed it’ll be a killer video!
OMG the editing does my head in. Greg whars up dude cant watch
Ive been dying to get my hands on this new Corsair ecosystem...😮😮 hope the owner enjoys it as much as we did watching you build it
Shocked that 1700 worked in that board, as B550 is not supposed to support gen 1 ryzen.
I don't usually like the GPU like that but it actually looks really good in this build because of the colors. This is the first time I've ever seen those fans, I need to get some eventually I have 9 fans in my gaming PC and the side panel barely shuts.
I'm happy with the build, looks great. The whole video is not sync with audio.
I've got the 7000 airflow love it
Am i the only one that noticed that, it seems like, the Sponsored bit is WAY out of sync to the rest of the video? Like, the video part is going on while Greg's talking about the components.. and then, as soon as the video of it ends and the lookover resumes, the audio for the sponsor part kicks in
I was expecting a clip of Homer Simpson saying "Woo-hoo" at the end.
I played the audio on 1 tab and muted the another tab for the video and now they are in sync. 1 minute 26 seconds difference on my side between audio and video. Ultragear ad was very helpful to sync... xD
well this is new. from the sponsor on the audio is wrong. its like it was moved form its original spot but the audio wasn't updated. the subtitles are still right. 2 hours later and the subs are now the same as the audio. strange.
I thought my PC audio was screwed. nope the audio sync is just way off. I was lowkey freaking out for a second LMAO
Wow that was an INSANE transformation. My man needs to grab himself a 5800x3D to top that beautiful system overhaul off.
That's exactly what I was thinking, grabbing a 5800x3d and possibly a 6950xt (reference vertical mounted would be amazing) would make a lot of sense.
I'm curious why you put the fans in the side instead of the front as a direct intake. The fans on the side would be facing the back panel. I have this case and yes I know there is a small vent on the back for airflow but nothing close to what the front panel would offer. Was it to show off the back of the corsair fans?
I wish you all the best, thats awesome.
damn thats a nice free upgrade and it leaves plenty of options for future upgrades... i love the new Corsair fans but they are so expensive
SWEET MAKEOVER! Too Bad the Customer didn't get a CPU Upgrade as well!
What's the deal with this video? Audio and video are totally mismatched. I've reloaded it three times and still can't get it synced up.
looks beautiful
Someone made an oopsi while editing the video 😂
No CPU upgrade? This is interesting.
Will you redo the video Gregg? It was ok just listening but viewing with the out of sync audio was a bit weird.
Nice rebuild. I have the 7000D case and I decided to rebuild my computer for the first time in like 6 or 7 years. There was soo much room it was a pleasure to build in. I went with an EATX MB (MSI MEG ACE) but still had lots of room, however my cable management in the back is still not great as I rebuilt mine right before all these new fans etc.. came out and it would cost me too much to switch now. I will say though with this case (mine) it made the cable management form the front look fantastic and was the cleanest build I have ever done. On which is a bummer as I had pretty much an unlimited budget. One weird thing I ran into was the 7000D comes with the fan hub like the 5000D and 3 fans, 2 front one rear and I used that hub, but my commander pro that came with my Corsair AIO sees all the fans that came with the case as all one fan, so I'm thinking of ditching it but I think I only have 2 more slots on the commander as I added one more front fan and one more side fan for a total of 8 fans (oh I also went the non RGB route). How can you and can you, connect two commander pro's together? If so I might try that. Right now besides that everything is working great so not sure I want to go poking inside again, but maybe.
Was you holding the pins at 4:40
