Are those nipples called a Nub or Nib? I've called them a Nib for 20 yrs? Like a fountain pen Nib. A Nub refers to a person that's a 'Nub' or the ID of a baby ultrasound sex.
@@TheGauges420 I had exactly the same problem with a Corsair case a couple of years ago. Unlike Paul I couldn't just swap in some different RAM. I have the radiator jammed in and hanging off one screw. Really poor design by Corsair. The cases need to be 10mmm taller so that the cooler doesn't overlap the motherboard. I won't be buying another one of their cases!
@@trimat2016 A lot of these compact cases could be like 20mm taller and longer and it'd fit nearly any consumer level radiator with ram vertically, and these super long 3080s horizontally. The next step up gets so big you might as well put a reservoir to fill in the dead space.
The manual for the case specifically says you need low profile memory for a 280mm AIO. These manuals are also available online so you can check before buying. No real excuse.
Ah a build video, haven't watched one in a while after building my first gaming PC, gotta stay strong in the fundamentals and not get rusty so thanks for uploading this paul.
It amazes me how many youtubers install AIO's or even any CPU cooler vertically, instead of laying the case down flat and having infinitely more leverage to install.
@@SuperHANGER18 I just don't like corsair's reputation of ram just dying in a year. That's why I switched over to TEAM XTREEM or G Skill ram. Corsair ram is just notorious for dying for no apparent reason. Never have experienced that from cheap ram. Corsair used to be the best but they're not even second best anymore.
I saw that too while I was editing! I removed the CPU yesterday and it was really wedged in the socket, I was afraid there was a bent or broken pin but it came out okay and it seemed like maybe a small piece of wood or something was lodged in there. It came out and the CPU still works 😅😅😅
LMAO, @ 1st glance I thought it was a tiny piece of wood (which is what it turned out to be of course), but then, when he turns the CPU, IT DOES look like a bent pin! That must have freaked him out a bit XD
4000D 4000X PC case is the affordable alternative version of HYTE Y70. I bought and DIY installed a perfect fitted touch screen monitor from Amazon to display the CPU GPU temperature datas, The effect exceeded my expectations. With this fancy monitor, I believe i will use for years.😂
Here is a huge NOTE: For this case, 4000D. If you plan to install a E-ATX mother board. You will need to move the shield in the case back. The screw is hind under the Cables in the back. Remove the screw and then move it back before installing the Motherboard. Example. The EVGA Z590 is a E-ATX board. You have to move it back or it will not fit.
My graphics card is sitting on the shield as in the video, I was afraid of a short circuit and took it out. looks like there is no problem with the video should i put it back? The cables look bad without it.
@@PesimistzOmbie How is it now?i am planning to buy the same cabinet.can we install the 3rd fan front if we move the hhd slot forward for power supply to have enough space.
@@Bragadish3002 I am not using hdd slots. 3rd fan installed. You have to be careful with the cabling. The problem I mentioned earlier is caused by the cable pushing the part. If I were you, I wouldn't buy this case right now. You can buy a new series or look at different brands.
You have a really balanced delivery style where I don't think it would be overwhelming for a computer novice, but also not boring for a more experienced person. Just wanted to give you props for that, nice job.
Update about the Corsair AIO, they have updated the mounting bracket and there no longer using those hooks but using those brackets similar to asetek uses but with their own design.
Paul thanks for your entertaining and informative videos. My brother just did his first build and I'm putting my parts list together for my first build. We both have used your videos to guide us through the process. Keep up the good work!
My first build a year ago August was your $900.00 option of a build in November of 2018. It was a lot of fun and worked to my expectations. As summer in the South is always as grueling as Winters in the North, I think this is the build for my summer. When I was obsessively watching videos by roughly 4-5 of the most popular builders, Paul's Hardware was the middle path and remained the most sensible IMHO for bang to buck ratio.
Thanks for the video. That case is really nice. I ended up picking up the same one. Corsair needs to release and Airflow RGB version, as not everyone wants the glass panel obstructing airflow through the case.
I got the Corsair iCUE 4000D RGB Mid-Tower Case and it was around 150 at the time but when I got it, it was around 120 this was my first customizable PC so I wanted a nice big case for future upgrades and I am super pleased with this case and would highly recommend it to anybody looking into thisit is super durable and has a nice finish on it along with easy thumb screws to takeoff the tempered glass and the back panel
I felt the pain with that mounting setup on the AIO. Fractal's doing that with their new Celsius lineup and I hate it. I bought Asetek's own AM4 mounting bracket off Amazon to get around that.
I have a Fractal celsius 280mm AIO and installion was pretty straightforward. Had to move the drive cage on my R6 and take the front panel off which was a complete pain in the ass.
I love this case for the cable management, as for me good airflow and easy cable management are the only 2 things that really matter in a PC case, and this one has got them both
I always lay my case down to do the CPU's and coolers, gravity will help align those hooks, doing it like you did can produce frustrating results, as you clearly demonstrated, as someone with a bit of a temper I can relate.
I replied to the comment above as well, it was a splinter or a small piece of wood-ish material in between the pins. It's removed and the CPU still works!
THANK YOU for making this video. This is very similar to the build I was only days away from putting together. I had no idea my Dominator Platinum would be a problem. Moving the build over to a Lian Li Dynamic XL. Holding onto the 4000D for something else since it's a great looking case. Long time fan, thank you Paul.
Awesome video! I would have loved to see a 10900k on this setup. I appreciate a case that allows you to not have to put the 24 pin connector on an angle. Love a case that allows it horizontal perfectly.
I literally just built this setup a few days ago before you posted this vod in preparation for the 3000 series cards, with a few slight differences. Here are my specs -Case: CORSAIR 4000D AF -GPU: Nvidia GeForce Zotac 1070 mini -CPU: Intel i9-7900x OC 4.20GHz -AIO: CORSAIR H150i ELITE 360MM -Motherboard: MSI X299 Raider -Ram: Ballistix 64.0 GB DDR4 @ 2400 -PSU: Corsair HX1200i -SSD: x1 WD Green 240GB 2.5" SATA -SSD: M.2 NVMe 970 EVO 1T -DT990 WITH MAGNI AMP -Audio Technica AT2020USB+ -Harddrive: x1 Toshiba 2T -Keyboard: Corsair K95 RGB -Mouse: Corsair M65 RGB ELITE -Main Monitor: Predator XB272 -Monitor #2 & #3 IPS Samsung 24"
Great live install video. Your work arounds are helpful. Amazing to see such a clumsy cooler connection design in 2020. Cooler, mobo, RAM and CPU engineering need to have lunch and find a standard. And make it simple.
love the look of the case. as soon as i saw it on hardware canucks i instantly changed it to be the case of choice. sad that there isnt a airflow rgb. just airflow OR rgb
Thank you for putting this video out, I am a first time builder that is using this exact case and motherboard so this will help out a lot when I eventually get a graphics card and build my system!
Got a question. The 4 8gb sticks... if its going into a dual channel (which I assume that board is) does that affect the performance rather than having 2 16gb sticks in the correct 2 and 4 slots?
No, the only real difference is that with 2 16gb sticks is that you have more room for future upgrading. Getting 4 sticks like that is mostly an aesthetic choice (4 light sticks instead of 2).
Doesn't affect performance directly but it could affect stability, and their ability to run full speed with certain motherboards, if the memory is on the QVL list it should be good though. Ryzen is pretty good with memory now, and the next ryzen 4000 series (or 5000 if they decide to call it that) should offer even better memory support.
B G I’m going by mass knowledge tbh, all of the vids I’ve seen for builds (they’re satisfying to watch lol) most people put them in slots 2 and 4 as that’s what it tends to say in the manual. But it’s worth checking if you’re unsure
Thank you Paul, this was EXACTLY the video I needed to see. Currently running an older H115i but wanted to get this case but heard about ram clearance issues. Thankfully you used the exact same ram (G.Skill Trident Z) that I'm running now so I can continue with my plans and change out the cooler later.
@@madararinneganuchiha if your ram is shorter than 40mm and you don't have a huge VRM heatsink then probably. If not you can still mount it to the front of the case as ended up doing.
Hi Senran, do you still have this case? I'm going to be starting my first build soon and want to go with this case myself. Was wondering if you could confirm whether or not there is enough space for a front mounted 360mm radiator? I know it can take a 280 at the front, and Corsair's site says it can, but I can find any videos or even images of a front mounted 360mm radiator anywhere. Could be just angles I'm seeing it at, but doesn't look like there's enough clearance between the mounting bracket and basement shroud?
@@North47 I do, still works great. I also have a 360mm radiator mounted at the front (tubes at the top, no other way works. Possibly why you don't see pictures of it is because the bottom part of the rad is hidden by the PSU shroud
@@GTReplayMaster perfect that's great to know, thank you for the reply. I think I've found a video finally with the 4000D case showing a 360mm front mounted. Could be the 5000D, but if it is at least now I know 100% that one will fit. Thank you again.
@@PabzRoz The much more expensive msi gaming x trio isn't much better either. Asus tuf oc seems to be the best. Check out buildzoid(actually hardcore overclocking youtube channel) review of zotac & msi pcb.
@@fabAB912 already seen it the tuf gaming OC is the best by far. I got one on launch day from microcenter used it for the day and man the performance was insane. wound up selling it on ebay for 2 grand and now im going back to microcenter to pick up a 3090 on launch literally for free. made my money back on the 3080 and enough extra to buy the 3090.
@@redgle862 i originally had no intention of selling it. i got it to upgrade from my 2080. but when i saw how much people were actually selling them for there was no way i was keeping it when i could literally triple my money and end up getting a 3090 for free lol. within 4 hours of posting it someone sent me 2 grand.
I'm building my first PC with all Corsair components myself. Pairing a Strix 3080 OC with a 5900x inside of the 4000x RGB case. My components are nearly identical. So this build was super helpful! Just waiting on my gpu and cpu to ship at this point!
does anyone know the exact measurements of this case, especially the top? i ordered it with a 280mm aio watercooler with corsair vengence ram and a asus rog strix z490-f. and i am wondering if i can return the ram and fit a g skill ram there
@@topomayor ended up returning the 280mm and getting the 240mm, because no way that would have fit. But Corsair is releasing a new vengeance rgb ram that is shorter, maybe that will fit but idk. Jsyk the ram has to be really short to fit
Man those lian li fans are looking better and better. I have a bunch of Noctua fans, so no RGB on them, but its still 6 cables and it is a pain. I think during my next upgrade I may spurge and get some uni fans... but idk the noctuas are so good. I guess that just shows me how much better cable management (lesser cables) outweigh quality.
I love the new Lian Li Uni fans, smart implementation. The only problem is that you can't set rpm for each fan, but only for a "pack" of fans. And you can't tell the software to do +/- rpm according to the cpu temperature.
@@simoSLJ89 I think that is fine actually, other brands do not support pwm control at all. Like Corsair, you need to buy Commander Pro if you want to individually control fan speed. At least this unifan allows you to do it albeit just fixed speed settings (quiet, balance, or extreme) and currently does not support a custom curve. Maybe with software update.
When a company makes a case, an AIO and memory, and their sizes are incompatible with eachother... I dunno, seems like a major screw up on the company's part. Good job, Corsair.
Worst video card ever purchased was made by Zocrap... Within 2 weeks the fan started going out and making a loud whine. Was an gforce 1060 with 6gig. Never ever had that happen and been building since the early 80's.. So luckily found an excellent replacement fan on Amazon and still works silent years later. Would be cautious with that group(imho).
realmente una pc de ensueño! ojala algun dia pueda tener una asi. para el proximo video hazle un primer plano a ese bello perro. abrazo desde argentina
Paul, if you lied down the case so the mainboard is at the bottom, the cooler mounting is way easier ;) - put the block on the cpu - slightly hold the 2 tabs on the hooks with thumb and indexfinger, tighten screws with other hand/screwdriver
Yay!!! Breathe man!!!! Need some nice chillout music. I had issues with the wraith and hated it. Then I bought a better cooler as I never felt it was good enough
I hope the nubs on that front cover that covers the fan dust filter are as sturdy as you say, I have 2 750Ds(due to incompatibility of the initial batch with my motherboard) at least 1 broke on both cases and I didn’t even touch them apart from initially installing the front fans. Also had the dust filter curve on them, more so on one of them. I like the case but the build quality of that left something to be desired.
I got a Cooler Master AIO for my build - first time using an AIO - I'm glad you struggle with that bloody mounting mechanism as well! Thought it me being a noob.
I am glad to see you finally got the CPU cooler pump on sorry that you had to take your frustration out on the laptop but I am glad you got that pump on, and yes Corsair need to find a better solution with that if it was me I would have trashed the entire AIO cooler. But other than that Paul I love the build and the parts you use. Awesome.

Corsair RAM conflicts with Corsair AIO and Corsair fans, when mounted in Corsair case.

Doesn't affect performance directly but it could affect stability, and their ability to run full speed with certain motherboards, if the memory is on the QVL list it should be good though.
Ryzen is pretty good with memory now, and the next ryzen 4000 series (or 5000 if they decide to call it that) should offer even better memory support.
Is better having 2 ram stick me in slots 2&4 rather then 1&2 ?
B G I’m going by mass knowledge tbh, all of the vids I’ve seen for builds (they’re satisfying to watch lol) most people put them in slots 2 and 4 as that’s what it tends to say in the manual. But it’s worth checking if you’re unsure
Thank you Paul, this was EXACTLY the video I needed to see. Currently running an older H115i but wanted to get this case but heard about ram clearance issues. Thankfully you used the exact same ram (G.Skill Trident Z) that I'm running now so I can continue with my plans and change out the cooler later.
Do you think i can fit nzxt kraken x62 and corsair rgb pro?
@@madararinneganuchiha if your ram is shorter than 40mm and you don't have a huge VRM heatsink then probably. If not you can still mount it to the front of the case as ended up doing.
Hi Senran, do you still have this case? I'm going to be starting my first build soon and want to go with this case myself. Was wondering if you could confirm whether or not there is enough space for a front mounted 360mm radiator? I know it can take a 280 at the front, and Corsair's site says it can, but I can find any videos or even images of a front mounted 360mm radiator anywhere. Could be just angles I'm seeing it at, but doesn't look like there's enough clearance between the mounting bracket and basement shroud?
@@North47 I do, still works great. I also have a 360mm radiator mounted at the front (tubes at the top, no other way works. Possibly why you don't see pictures of it is because the bottom part of the rad is hidden by the PSU shroud
@@GTReplayMaster perfect that's great to know, thank you for the reply. I think I've found a video finally with the 4000D case showing a 360mm front mounted. Could be the 5000D, but if it is at least now I know 100% that one will fit. Thank you again.
I'm extremely curious how it would look like if you front mount the AIO. Would give room with the Corsair Dominator and better temps.
The Anngy Peel at 20:56! Right there with you my friend
Corsair hooked Paul up and they just showed off how badly they need to update their components.
buying this next week, so frickin excited
Anyone see that fabled “restocking” Nvidia mentioned? I haven’t. Been checking every morning and afternoon on the hour. Nothing
This man is definitely a trustworthy man and chill person
Chill until the CPU mount came unclipped, that is.
There's my ZOTAC !!! 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
The worst built card outa all the 3080s lol
@@PabzRoz The much more expensive msi gaming x trio isn't much better either. Asus tuf oc seems to be the best.
Check out buildzoid(actually hardcore overclocking youtube channel) review of zotac & msi pcb.
@@fabAB912 already seen it the tuf gaming OC is the best by far. I got one on launch day from microcenter used it for the day and man the performance was insane. wound up selling it on ebay for 2 grand and now im going back to microcenter to pick up a 3090 on launch literally for free. made my money back on the 3080 and enough extra to buy the 3090.
@@PabzRoz Thanks for being part of the resell problem. At least you're using it to get another card for yourself so not *as* douchey lol
@@redgle862 i originally had no intention of selling it. i got it to upgrade from my 2080. but when i saw how much people were actually selling them for there was no way i was keeping it when i could literally triple my money and end up getting a 3090 for free lol. within 4 hours of posting it someone sent me 2 grand.
Thanks for the build Paul and the caveats with the hardware in this build. The AIO mounting method is interesting.
Imagine not even being able to be compatible with your own products
that doesnt even make sense what you are saying. Pc parts dont fit with all other pc parts, has nothing to do with brands
Nice build. Happy to see you build again.
It's about time for me to do another build. But, I've gotta wait to see AMD's announcement first...
I'm building my first PC with all Corsair components myself. Pairing a Strix 3080 OC with a 5900x inside of the 4000x RGB case. My components are nearly identical. So this build was super helpful! Just waiting on my gpu and cpu to ship at this point!
does anyone know the exact measurements of this case, especially the top? i ordered it with a 280mm aio watercooler with corsair vengence ram and a asus rog strix z490-f. and i am wondering if i can return the ram and fit a g skill ram there
LOL, that happened to me too, I end up returning corsair vengance Ram and ordered hyperx rgb , still waiting to see if it fits...
what did you do?
@@topomayor ended up returning the 280mm and getting the 240mm, because no way that would have fit. But Corsair is releasing a new vengeance rgb ram that is shorter, maybe that will fit but idk. Jsyk the ram has to be really short to fit
@@richardjohansen3644 well tomorrow I will know if it fits , hope it does , other wise I will need to return the aio
@@topomayor Did 280mm fit with the hyperx ram?
@@fernandixo8937 It did fit, the aio touchs the ram a little bit, i end up putting 2x16 gb hyperx ram
Bloody hell that dog do be flat out 14:08
Thanks for the build you’ve earned a new sub
I bet that gpu is having issues already
Why
2:14 THE 1500 dollar version. Did he mean just for the video card instead 🤣
Does it run Minecraft tho ?
Those are a bit younger than that ;D
Thanjk you so much for this! Helped me build my PC today.
Corsair, FFS simplify your RGB cables/hubs this looks awful and out dated
Lian Li leading the way with RGB fan technology lately.
Man those lian li fans are looking better and better. I have a bunch of Noctua fans, so no RGB on them, but its still 6 cables and it is a pain.
I think during my next upgrade I may spurge and get some uni fans... but idk the noctuas are so good. I guess that just shows me how much better cable management (lesser cables) outweigh quality.
I love the new Lian Li Uni fans, smart implementation.
The only problem is that you can't set rpm for each fan, but only for a "pack" of fans. And you can't tell the software to do +/- rpm according to the cpu temperature.
Yea.. plus the ridiculous price.
@@simoSLJ89 I think that is fine actually, other brands do not support pwm control at all. Like Corsair, you need to buy Commander Pro if you want to individually control fan speed. At least this unifan allows you to do it albeit just fixed speed settings (quiet, balance, or extreme) and currently does not support a custom curve. Maybe with software update.
@1:12 "These are very difficult to get ahold of right now"
Me: Well no shit Sherlock!
*cries in 1070*
When a company makes a case, an AIO and memory, and their sizes are incompatible with eachother... I dunno, seems like a major screw up on the company's part. Good job, Corsair.
Also Microsoft make devices that is incompatible with Windows all the time
The memory is just for taller cases really. Memory that tall would have issues with most if not all air coolers as well.
Well done Paul. Great build
Zotac was the bad choice here, especially after igorslab video.
1:35 ... Yeah, right, we'll see about that...
Why would you pair RTX 3080 with the slow Ryzen processor lol! Every review shows it bottleneck Nvidia's latest cards.
Paul! Awesome vid, great content as always!
The box art on that Zotac card is probably the best thing about it. (including the card)
this is great bcs i was looking at this case and a lot of the components you used so thank you
So glad you built in this case with this card. I want a zotac amp, but wasn't sure if that card would fit when I saw this case pop up online.
Worst video card ever purchased was made by Zocrap... Within 2 weeks the fan started going out and making a loud whine. Was an gforce 1060 with 6gig. Never ever had that happen and been building since the early 80's.. So luckily found an excellent replacement fan on Amazon and still works silent years later. Would be cautious with that group(imho).
Did you use any anti static devices? Building my first PC coming soon here and im trying to figure out if i need anything for static.
Make sure you touch the metal of the case to ground yourself before handling the motherboard or graphic card.
Love what you do Sir. Thanks for the new video.
Thanks for the video! Hope you and your family are safe and well. :-)
Great content as always! Build videos are always welcomed! You used some of the stuff I'll be using on my first build
realmente una pc de ensueño! ojala algun dia pueda tener una asi. para el proximo video hazle un primer plano a ese bello perro. abrazo desde argentina
Paul, if you lied down the case so the mainboard is at the bottom, the cooler mounting is way easier ;) - put the block on the cpu - slightly hold the 2 tabs on the hooks with thumb and indexfinger, tighten screws with other hand/screwdriver
Yay!!! Breathe man!!!! Need some nice chillout music. I had issues with the wraith and hated it. Then I bought a better cooler as I never felt it was good enough
This looks absolutely beautiful
First time seeing this guy on youtube . Subbed instantly cuz I like him.
I hope the nubs on that front cover that covers the fan dust filter are as sturdy as you say, I have 2 750Ds(due to incompatibility of the initial batch with my motherboard) at least 1 broke on both cases and I didn’t even touch them apart from initially installing the front fans. Also had the dust filter curve on them, more so on one of them. I like the case but the build quality of that left something to be desired.
lovely job man, looks nice
I got a Cooler Master AIO for my build - first time using an AIO - I'm glad you struggle with that bloody mounting mechanism as well! Thought it me being a noob.
Great to see you getting back in the biz, you're one of my faves!
NGL, the music for the building bits giving me hella rayman hoodlum havoc vibes
Jolly good show Paul. Very informative and interesting indeed. Keep up the good work my friend.
I am glad to see you finally got the CPU cooler pump on sorry that you had to take your frustration out on the laptop but I am glad you got that pump on, and yes Corsair need to find a better solution with that if it was me I would have trashed the entire AIO cooler. But other than that Paul I love the build and the parts you use. Awesome.
Just ordered a custom Origin PC with this case. Also a 10900k and a 3080. Too excited!
Such a nice clean black build. That zotac card looks absolutely beautiful. I hope I can get it soon this restock situation sucks.
