Absolutely invaluable video - As a new PC builder myself with many TH-cam build videos under my belt and working on the exact same build now but with a RX 7800 XT, thank you for relaying the true emotion coursing through your blood. All those words mean so much more now. Best Build Video 10/10.
Appreciate the kind words! PC building is definitely not as peaceful and easy as some of the TH-cam videos out there make it seem 😅 but boy oh boy is it rewarding when you finally get everything up and running!
@@StevenMakesVids Any GPU sag? and how are temps running? Mine is 40 degrees Celsius on idle and 65-70 degrees Celsius on heavy load but I have a RX 7800 RT.
@@TheReayning no gpu sag for me. When I push this system I get around 60c but the ambient temp in my room is about 20c so that may play a big factor in temps
wish i had the money for this i got a 1660ti i7 9700f and etc, very good guide thoe i learned if i ever got money ill be ready to make one i learn alot from this
We all start somewhere! Definitely took me awhile to throw this all together. Just keep your head up and keep saving and you'll have enough for a build like this before you know it!
Built mine a good while ago now, using the founders edition 3070 Ti and 11400, yours looks great! Did a bit of an undervolt on my 3070 Ti, with a custom fan curve, runs cool and quiet after that
How are the thermals want to do this build with a 9950X I have a lot of Folding at Home cancer research that run 24x7 and the use all the CPU they can get for processing including the graphics card thank you Chuck
Hey chuck, my temps are really nice with gpu never getting above 70c even under heavy loads and I’ve never had any type of thermal throttling on cpu/gpu. It’s important to note the ambient temperature in the room my pc is in is about 21C or 71F. That’ll have a huge impact on pc temps!
hey man. hope you are doing well. How is the pc holding up. have there been any issues in these past 9 months? im about the build the same one so was just asking
Thank you for the kind words! I had a huge issue where my boot drive sometimes would not be recognized but troubleshot it down the the nvme slot on the MOBO being faulty. I moved my ssd to the second slot and now everything is working perfectly. Living in Japan makes an RMA on the MOBO kind of impossible so I just have to live with a dead ssd slot now. That really only boils down to being unlucky with the MOBO I got. Other than that the PC is very powerful and runs cool. Very happy with it!
@@StevenMakesVids Was looking into more of an optimization review and some videos had a checklist of things to change including PBO for AMD, fan curves...
@@TheReayning I enabled docp and updated BIOS and that’s it tbh lol with just that it runs very cool and crushes any game I play so I never even thought about tweaking anything
How do you use the new connect the new cable for gpu?, do you just put it directly to the GPU or you just still use the stock cable and connect it with the new one
@@JudgeBreddUK Yeah I did, as it turns out it was normal for it to light up It started yellow then red then white and then green, I needed to wait for almost 2 mins as the initial booting will take a little while.. HAHA I was just being paranoid since its my first time building a PC.
@@JudgeBreddUK as he said always read the manual, tho it was not specifically mentioned to wait for a couple of mins but it did say it will light up during the process!
It's hard to put a percentage to it but it's absolutely outclasses the M16 while being whisper quiet. It is a full powered 4080 Super after all vs a laptop lol
tbh ive never thought about the grounding bit....i have seen people with long wires attached to their wrists and i was always confused .....but yea idk, im building this EXACT same pc and idk if im gonna be grounding myself ....i am kinda concerned cause my flooring is made of carpets sooo....should i?
I've got a background in electronics maintenance which is why I mentioned it. I built my PC on hard floor with no esd strap and was fine. For carpet just to have a warm and fuzzy I'd wear some Crocs or something just to be sure lol
@@doctordunkans8254 The PC has been absolutely excellent. I have had a few hiccups with RAM and DOCP but those wrinkles are mostly ironed out now. Temps are low and frames are high lol
@@doctordunkans8254 Every once in awhile upon boot it goes straight into BIOS. I think this is because i enabled DOCP for 6000mhz before installing the most up to date BIOS drivers which I heard can cause issues like this.
@@StevenMakesVids haha. Only joking mate. I like your tone. You need to be chilled out when building as anger doesn’t help. Just bought this case myself for a bargain on prime day here in the UK. 215 GBP. I’ll gradually add the rest of the parts over time as my wife - correctly- pointed out that I’ve only recently upgraded my LG OLED for my console. Btw, that 4080 is beautiful. My son recently got a used founder’s 4070 super and the finish is superb. Personally, I would have gone for a 7800 XT for the 16 GB but in all fairness he was constrained by his NZXT H210i case. At least with the NR200p Max I won’t face the same issue. Thanks for replying and also uploading your build video. Appreciate it.

i love the names you give for each part 😆
I'll figure them out one day hopefully! Haha

I appreciate the comment! Mine hasn't gone above 65C during gaming and is whisper quiet so I haven't felt the need to undervolt just yet
@@StevenMakesVids Ahh that's awesome! My GPU would get pretty hot in gaming
Good part's selection!!!😊
You're funny as hell bro. Best mini itx 4080 super build video out. This is exactly what I'm building
Appreciate it man! Good luck on your build and I hope you enjoy it!
I got the non max version saved a lot of money 4070ti super fits
Lol you took the bottom panel off I’m fucking stupid I didn’t even see how to get it off lol that helps tremendously thanks for the video
I’m a order the same psu and see what I get for flexible cables the one k ordered sucks ass
How are the thermals want to do this build with a 9950X I have a lot of Folding at Home cancer research that run 24x7 and the use all the CPU they can get for processing including the graphics card thank you Chuck

@ thanks Steve someone said there was room for two fans slim to go on top of the radiator to create push pull effect true? Thanks again
Heard people complain about the aio fan and psu coil from the max, have you had any problems with them?
I have coil whine but from the gpu. Everything else is near silent imo
hey man. hope you are doing well. How is the pc holding up. have there been any issues in these past 9 months? im about the build the same one so was just asking

@@StevenMakesVids oh that is unfortunate. lets hope that second one holds up haha. Thankyou man
Im thinking of using the same build, I would also like a smaller gaming PC, appreciate the video
It's been an awesome little powerhouse so far I highly recommend it!
Thanks for the video, are you still happy with your build?
Performance wise absolutely. It’s a little beast
Also, did you post the BIOS first time setup video? That would be great if still possible.
Really just need to enable DOCP to get the full MHZ of your RAM. Was there any question you had about BIOS specifically?
@@StevenMakesVids Was looking into more of an optimization review and some videos had a checklist of things to change including PBO for AMD, fan curves...
@@TheReayning I enabled docp and updated BIOS and that’s it tbh lol with just that it runs very cool and crushes any game I play so I never even thought about tweaking anything
Be careful bro, your ssd is flexed, the heatsink put a lot of pressure on it, you might want to loosen up the screws a bit
Dang thanks for pointing that out I never noticed until your comment. Thankfully haven’t had any issues since this video 😅
How do you use the new connect the new cable for gpu?, do you just put it directly to the GPU or you just still use the stock cable and connect it with the new one
I might have to try this build maybe in a year or 2 coming from a intel nuc extreme 11 with a 3060ti.
While im building almost similar to this one, and i turned it on it gives yellow light, what should i do?
Did you fix it? Yellow is usually DRAM light in asus motherboards, try taking one out
@@JudgeBreddUK Yeah I did, as it turns out it was normal for it to light up It started yellow then red then white and then green, I needed to wait for almost 2 mins as the initial booting will take a little while.. HAHA I was just being paranoid since its my first time building a PC.
@@FreiTheSlayer Ha! That's brilliant
@@JudgeBreddUK as he said always read the manual, tho it was not specifically mentioned to wait for a couple of mins but it did say it will light up during the process!
How much of an improvement do you have on your new build compared to your M16 laptop?
It's hard to put a percentage to it but it's absolutely outclasses the M16 while being whisper quiet. It is a full powered 4080 Super after all vs a laptop lol
Hi, is the water cooling already filled with cooling liquid? Might be a dumb question but im asking anyway.
No dumb questions when building a PC! It comes filled with liquid 👍🏼

@@doctordunkans8254 The PC has been absolutely excellent. I have had a few hiccups with RAM and DOCP but those wrinkles are mostly ironed out now. Temps are low and frames are high lol
@@StevenMakesVids hiccups? were they not working properly? did you not install the proper software or smthn?

hey, curious question, do you know how much the entire build weights?
I haven't weighed it but if I had to guess about 25lbs lol
I am also interested! Would be great to know that
hey just wondering where u used the cm12vhpwr 90degree cable? looking to do the exact same build but confused on the GPU installation
I ended up getting a custom cable from cooler master I highly recommend it. What're you confused on with GPU instillation?
@@StevenMakesVidscould you telle me how to find that exact cable? Thx for de video!
@@jackw.4044 Cooler Master 12VHPWR Cable Type... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CC2JL3T5?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
so im looking to build the same build but i will play on 4k rez, did you test it how does perform on 4k, Is it gonna overheat ?
No my build never goes above 65C. I believe that may have a lot to do with the ambient temperature of your room though. Mine is always about 71F.
What monitor you are using?
HP omen 27i. I have a video of it on my channel. Looking into some oleds now though!
had to play this at 1.5x
Watch it again at 2x
You’re too aggressive in your delivery. Very upsetting.
I’ve heard monotone over hundreds of comments but never aggressive lol apologies for upsetting you, hope you could still enjoy the video!
