Hey Johnny. Just wanna ask you. Have you run battlefield 3 multiplayer on this yet? If so, what's the FPS on ultra with 2x AA, cos I'm about to build all most the same pc you got there... But I see so deferent results on the FPS. And I must say I love your build. :-D
@kofsikof I have not run it on ultra settings. I ran it on High with 2x AA and I get about 55-60fps. I ordered another 6870 so I should be able to run it on ultra.
@CraigRichieStudios It works great if doing moderate overclocking from 3.4- 4.0 Ghz but after that I needed to add a second fan to the radiator. I will be upgrading to the corsair h100 so I can overclock harder. But it really is a great water cooling unit. Thanks for watching!
How are the NZXT cables? a lot of people say they aren't that great. Also, have you been experiencing the "boot loops" people have been getting with that mobo?
man I want this white case. im building a pc for a friend and ordered the black graphite model, had thoughts of keeping it for myself and getting him something cheaper but the more I look at this white one, the more I want it.
One solution for the front panel USB 3.0 cable is to get the 3 port USB 3.0 adapter from Siig, model # JU-P40212-S1, really awesome because it has sata power instead of molex, and gives you 3 rear USB 3.0 ports, and has one internal connector for that front panel cable
@StrokedGT Nice! Thanks for the info. There is also an internal USB 3.0 header pins on the motherboard and you can just get the header pins to usb adapter to connect it directly to the motherboard. Thanks for watching!
@johnnythegeek1 no, i don't think you understood. i meant to say that my windows have been scratched up and smudged. The LED lights I put (similar to the ones you put) bring the scratches out even more. I was just wondering if you've encountered the same and if you found a good way to clean it.
The white LED lights on the side panel, show scratches and finger prints on the window. Have you tried cleaning the windows or have you just never touched them?
@OrangeArcher13 I picked it up from an electronics store called Fry's here on the west coast. I also put a link to amazon for the 3/4 inch ones. That was all i could find on amazon. I also used 1/2 and 1/4 inch tubing. Thanks for watching!
you mentioned the cutout on the other case wouldn't allow the cooler plate...this is why I have a dremel,hehe. but love the 600t case. about to start my build so thanks for the video.
I have this case, it's nice but the cable connectors are marked but the motherboard markings don't match. Am I supposed to look into my crystal ball to figure out where they go? wtf.
@johnnythegeek1 After reading the mobo book I was able to figure it out. There is an issue with the power supply however. It's an asus p8z68-v pro/gen3 mobo, and a fully modular ax850 corsair pro series gold atx power supply. the mobo has two power connectors one 24 pin eatxpwr and one 8 pin eatx12v connector. The power supply came with a bunch of cables none of which fit the eatx12v. Am I missing a cable or am I not suposed to use this conector?
@jewie27 I know and that prompted me to make another video on how to clean and apply new thermal grease. I made 2 of them so do a search on my channel for the word thermal grease. Thanks for watching!
Johnny i have a question concerning the new case: Wont its white colour go "beige" as time passes by? I have seen it before in many older white cases...
@Liakos256 So far I have not noticed any changes in color. I would think that paint has come a long way and it should not "yellow". Maybe humidity would have an affect on it and if that is the case (no pun intended) I should not experience that either since I live in California and it is a relatively dry climate here. Thanks for asking and I will update this video if something happens.
@InverseBlue Thanks for watching! I got those wire loom tubing also known as corrugated split tubing from Fry's Electronics but you can also find them on Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, or any hardware store with electrician equipment.
@emerybryant I don't recommend watching anything with a headache. The music I used it suitable for me because it is a free license and it is better than no music at all. You can also mute the video during the music parts. I was almost going to get the black one but then this white one was the one on sale so I got it instead. Thanks for watching!
@johnnythegeek1 oh ok it was on sale i must have missed that or maybe u didnt mention it? well i still would have went with black i dont care for white. and no prob u make decent videos
awesome review, very good case I will buy that one next week and i like your cable managment with that white cables on motherboard and graphic card....xD
@ab30494 You are correct. It prompted me to make a couple other videos on how to apply thermal grease and the thermal compound I used called nano diamonds! Check them out by going to my channel and typing in "thermal grease" on the channels search bar.
@buonchieuphoco yes it can! There is even a hole next to it to run the power connector through. The only tricky part is that you have to screw the fan in from the bottom. The screws closer to the motherboard will be tricky that's for sure. I mean if the motherboard is already installed. If you are starting from scratch then that should be one of the first things to prep before dropping in the mobo. Hope that helps.
Regarding the NZXT cables, did you need only one of each pin type for this build; and in a "standard" build, would I only need one of each type? (This'll help me plan on quantity to buy). Thanks in advance!
@dxiong5 In the description I bought one of each except for the NZXT CB 6V-W 6-Pin VGA Premium Extension Cable. Those were the power connectors for the Graphics card and my particular Graphics Card needed 2 connectors because it draws a lot of power. If you only need one then I suggest you get only one. Did that answer your question?
@johnnythegeek1 Thanks, your response indeed answered my question. I suppose I will need to know how many connectors my GPU needs first, and it makes sense to buy only one if I need only one. Thanks again!
thanks for the reply, i got 3/8 white for the sata and h60 hopefully they fit, i had to get 1" black tubes, they were out of stock on white, im planning to spray paint it white.
@TheAntecFan nice. That should work. I would suggest testing it out on a small piece and then doing a flexibility test to see if the paint stays on when you're working with it. You don't want paint chips to be breaking off or flaking all up in your case.
@johnnythegeek1 thanks for the tip, I'm also planning on painting my gray Antec power supply to white, how long do you think i should wait for it to install it back. im planning to cover any holes and just paint the outside, btw did you ever paint yours?
built my pc a few years ago, pure joy. now i hardly even look at it with the same joy as before. this video made me want to regain that joy i once had. now let me go clean off all that dust inside and give it a nice pat.
@johnnythegree1 hey did the case come with different back plates for the mobo. I want to do a case switch also and upgrade later. Reason why i as is my mb didnt come with ps/2 connections.
@deepsouth06 Oh the I/O shields come with the motherboards and not the case. Unless you buy the motherboard used and it is mission, you might have to look online to buy another one or not use one at all. It's not dangerous to not have one. Your computer is not going to explode and lots of people including me, have built computers without them.
@johnnythegeek1 Hey johnny, thanks for replying and helping out. I finally remembered that and found out that the i/o shield does come with the mobo. thanks again.
Very, very nice build! I bought a 600T myself and was looking around at some peoples' builds, thanks for the inspiration, I put up the video for the one I just finished, and actually used the NZXT white cables and tubing you have here in yours!
@revenant3154 nothing is connected to the on board usb 3.0 header. I did not have an adapter to connect the usb 3.0 plug to header pins. I found one on mono price for $3 I should get that instead of routing that cable to the back. thanks for asking!
@linh0810 Yes it will work. It splits off into two pieces. If you look at the cable on amazon they have really good pictures and you can see that it splits into two. Thanks for watching!
@kueefs Thanks. It's the Audio-Technica ATR-3350 Lavalier Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone. It was $22.17 from amazon. Works really well as a mono input so you only get audio from one channel. But it's an easy fix to just duplicate the audio onto the other channel in the editing program.
@Protolamp This case makes it so much easier to build because of all the room you get to hide cables and the hard drive cage configuration options. I recommend it even for first time builders. There isn't any tricks or obscure parts to this case, it's pretty straight forward. Thanks for watching!
you bought a cpu cooler which you couldn't install because you didn't want to take the motherboard out? so you get a new case, and transfer everything from one case to another?
@Apieslapie1 lol. not really. I was going to take out the mobo to install the water cooling in the old case but then the new case came out and I waited for it to go on sale. I did not want to take everything out of the old case, install the water cooling, put it all back, and then take it all out a again a few weeks later to put into the new case.
@ZackC31 I got them both at Fry's Electronics but if you don't have one of those near you then I suggest logisys cold cathodes and the halo 6 leds from amazon. Thanks for watching!
@Russ369 I got those sleeves from Fry's electronics but you can also get them from Amazon.com or some kind of hardware store. I have another video showing how to apply thermal grease. i plan on making 3 videos to test the temps on 3 different methods of applying thermal grease. Thanks for watching!
I've got the same case and I've done a nice job of the wiring. But I must say you've done a good job. Its a great case, but I had to buy a header to dual USB3.0 Type A connectors to be able to use the front USB3.
@jamiebalfour04 Yeah I will have to do the same because the usb 3.0 cable is only long enough to go from the front to the back if I use the top pci express 1 slot. But now I am using that slot so the cable is too short to run through any other slot. I got those sleeves from Fry's electronics but you can also get them from Amazon.com or some kind of hardware store. Thanks for watching!
@patrikk777 I have it set as exhaust because of the over clocking I do brings it to about 75 degrees and that is pretty warm. Typically, because of it being in the back of the case, most are made to be exhausted because most cases are designed to have cool air come in from the front and hot air exhausted from the back.
Could you please tell me if the LED's at the bottom of the side panel are built into the PC chassis and where did you get the white molex cathode light from?! :D Thanks!
@bdude92 All the lighting in the case and side panel I got from Fry's Electronics. The usb lights are made by Sound Science and they were $5. The LED bar with the Molex is by Logysis and was $14.
Nice build however you committed a sin by not cleaning the old thermal compound from the CPU before installing the new cooler -____- other than that pretty sweet.
@djjmp3 You are correct! and now I am having overheating issues when overclocked at 4.5Ghz. Epic fail on my part. I will correct the situation soon. Thanks for watching!
@joaoofficial Nice! It is pretty pricey. Cost as much as the case even when shipped here in the US. $137. I might just mod my existing panel and make a bigger cut out for the glass.
very nice and clean build man, looks good. couple quick questions. 1. does it matter what kind of screw driver we use when building the pc. ie: magnetic or not 2. do you build you're computer on hardwood floor/tile instead of carpet? 3. is it complicated building a computer? I've watched A LOT of videos and done quite some bit of research on how to build it but I just want to become as pre pared as I can. thnx bud!
@desertfox1792 I prefer the magnetic screw drivers because of tight spaces don't allow both hands to get in there. I build on any floor. If you are worried about static then get an anto static wrist strap. I have built so many computers that I don't really worry about static. Never had a problem with static. Ask anyone with experience and they will tell you that they dont worry about it either. I have another video on building a core i7 you might find useful. Thanks for watching!
Did you have any problem installing 16GB of ram? I got 2 of those 2x4GB Corsair Dominator, but I heard that you have to do some configuration in order to install max 24GB RAM (triple channel). Do you have to do the same with 16GB dual channel or you just install and go?
@ticross1207 I don't know of any configuration to get the dual channel to work. I think it is automaticall enabled when dual channel memory is installed. There might be a setting to turn it off. I will have to check when I get home. Thanks for watching!
@johnnythegeek1 Thanks, since I did some search on google and people say it's not as easy as 1,2,3 to install maximum 24GB ram in triple channel! Seems like I'm gonna install 16GB Corsair in my rig now, thanks for the information anyways!
@johnnythegeek1 Thanks, since I did some search on google and people say it's not as easy as 1,2,3 to install maximum 24GB ram in triple channel! Seems like I'm gonna install 16GB Corsair in my rig now, thanks for the information anyways!

@MrMAB7777 I bought them at Fry's Electronics. The problem though is that they never turn off. They are made by Sound Science. I would recommend the NZXT Premium Sleeved LED Kit from amazon. It uses a molex connector and has a switch on them to adjust brightness.
lol the usual Asian peace sign at the end. Love the new build man, I dig the black an dwhite to, but I am not sure if you should color the white for the PSU; It might end up looking like to too much white, the lights add the finishing touch :)

@johnnythegree1 hey did the case come with different back plates for the mobo. I want to do a case switch also and upgrade later. Reason why i as is my mb didnt come with ps/2 connections.

@deepsouth06 Did you mean the I/O shield?
johnnythegeek1 2 months ago
@johnnythegeek1 ya, thats what i meant.
deepsouth06 2 months ago
@deepsouth06 Oh the I/O shields come with the motherboards and not the case. Unless you buy the motherboard used and it is mission, you might have to look online to buy another one or not use one at all. It's not dangerous to not have one. Your computer is not going to explode and lots of people including me, have built computers without them.

@johnnythegeek1 Hey johnny, thanks for replying and helping out. I finally remembered that and found out that the i/o shield does come with the mobo. thanks again.

Very, very nice build! I bought a 600T myself and was looking around at some peoples' builds, thanks for the inspiration, I put up the video for the one I just finished, and actually used the NZXT white cables and tubing you have here in yours!

What did you do with usb 3.0 header?" How'd you connect it
revenant3154 3 months ago
@revenant3154 nothing is connected to the on board usb 3.0 header. I did not have an adapter to connect the usb 3.0 plug to header pins. I found one on mono price for $3 I should get that instead of routing that cable to the back. thanks for asking!

My mainboard uses the 4pin CPU connector, will your 8 pin extension work with it?
linh0810 3 months ago
@linh0810 Yes it will work. It splits off into two pieces. If you look at the cable on amazon they have really good pictures and you can see that it splits into two. Thanks for watching!
johnnythegeek1 3 months ago
@kueefs Thanks. It's the Audio-Technica ATR-3350 Lavalier Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone. It was $22.17 from amazon. Works really well as a mono input so you only get audio from one channel. But it's an easy fix to just duplicate the audio onto the other channel in the editing program.

im thinking of getting this case. im a first time builder, is it ok to set up?
Protolamp 3 months ago
@Protolamp This case makes it so much easier to build because of all the room you get to hide cables and the hard drive cage configuration options. I recommend it even for first time builders. There isn't any tricks or obscure parts to this case, it's pretty straight forward. Thanks for watching!

wait... i don't get it
you bought a cpu cooler which you couldn't install because you didn't want to take the motherboard out? so you get a new case, and transfer everything from one case to another?
Apieslapie1 3 months ago
@Apieslapie1 lol. not really. I was going to take out the mobo to install the water cooling in the old case but then the new case came out and I waited for it to go on sale. I did not want to take everything out of the old case, install the water cooling, put it all back, and then take it all out a again a few weeks later to put into the new case.

@Russ369 I got those sleeves from Fry's electronics but you can also get them from Amazon.com or some kind of hardware store. I have another video showing how to apply thermal grease. i plan on making 3 videos to test the temps on 3 different methods of applying thermal grease. Thanks for watching!
johnnythegeek1 3 months ago
I've got the same case and I've done a nice job of the wiring. But I must say you've done a good job. Its a great case, but I had to buy a header to dual USB3.0 Type A connectors to be able to use the front USB3.
jamiebalfour04 3 months ago
@jamiebalfour04 Yeah I will have to do the same because the usb 3.0 cable is only long enough to go from the front to the back if I use the top pci express 1 slot. But now I am using that slot so the cable is too short to run through any other slot. I got those sleeves from Fry's electronics but you can also get them from Amazon.com or some kind of hardware store. Thanks for watching!

Do you have the Antec Kuhler configured as intake or exhaust? Which one do you think works better?
patrikk777 3 months ago
@patrikk777 I have it set as exhaust because of the over clocking I do brings it to about 75 degrees and that is pretty warm. Typically, because of it being in the back of the case, most are made to be exhausted because most cases are designed to have cool air come in from the front and hot air exhausted from the back.

just got this case for my build, think ill struggle on all the wires lol

Could you please tell me if the LED's at the bottom of the side panel are built into the PC chassis and where did you get the white molex cathode light from?! :D Thanks!
bdude92 4 months ago
@bdude92 All the lighting in the case and side panel I got from Fry's Electronics. The usb lights are made by Sound Science and they were $5. The LED bar with the Molex is by Logysis and was $14.

Nice build however you committed a sin by not cleaning the old thermal compound from the CPU before installing the new cooler -____- other than that pretty sweet.

So im going to make my own :)

@joaoofficial Nice! It is pretty pricey. Cost as much as the case even when shipped here in the US. $137. I might just mod my existing panel and make a bigger cut out for the glass.

very nice and clean build man, looks good. couple quick questions. 1. does it matter what kind of screw driver we use when building the pc. ie: magnetic or not 2. do you build you're computer on hardwood floor/tile instead of carpet? 3. is it complicated building a computer? I've watched A LOT of videos and done quite some bit of research on how to build it but I just want to become as pre pared as I can. thnx bud!
desertfox1792 4 months ago
@desertfox1792 I prefer the magnetic screw drivers because of tight spaces don't allow both hands to get in there. I build on any floor. If you are worried about static then get an anto static wrist strap. I have built so many computers that I don't really worry about static. Never had a problem with static. Ask anyone with experience and they will tell you that they dont worry about it either. I have another video on building a core i7 you might find useful. Thanks for watching!

Did you have any problem installing 16GB of ram? I got 2 of those 2x4GB Corsair Dominator, but I heard that you have to do some configuration in order to install max 24GB RAM (triple channel). Do you have to do the same with 16GB dual channel or you just install and go?
ticross1207 5 months ago
@ticross1207 I don't know of any configuration to get the dual channel to work. I think it is automaticall enabled when dual channel memory is installed. There might be a setting to turn it off. I will have to check when I get home. Thanks for watching!
johnnythegeek1 5 months ago
@johnnythegeek1 Thanks, since I did some search on google and people say it's not as easy as 1,2,3 to install maximum 24GB ram in triple channel! Seems like I'm gonna install 16GB Corsair in my rig now, thanks for the information anyways!

MrMAB7777 5 months ago
@MrMAB7777 I bought them at Fry's Electronics. The problem though is that they never turn off. They are made by Sound Science. I would recommend the NZXT Premium Sleeved LED Kit from amazon. It uses a molex connector and has a switch on them to adjust brightness.

lol the usual Asian peace sign at the end. Love the new build man, I dig the black an dwhite to, but I am not sure if you should color the white for the PSU; It might end up looking like to too much white, the lights add the finishing touch :)
