This is along the lines of what i am about to build, nice choice in specs, but why so much room in the case, i know you replied saying that it was for the graphics cards and cooling but theres like sooooo much room! (nice build)
Thanks for posting this vid. I got the same mobo--also put it in a full tower--but was reticent to pull the trigger on the v6 because I wasn't sure of the clearances. I'm impressed with how well this cooler fits this compact board.
It's hard for me to tell in this video... I'm looking to put in 2 X 4GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM on the same motherboard with the same V6GT cooler. Is there just enough clearance for the RAM if my memory sticks were taller than those G.Skills? Like... are your RAM sticks underneath the cooler at all? Or is it not overlapping it? Cause if my RAM is taller and won't fit, I'ma be pissed!
@NostalgicLink there will not be, go with the gskills he has, that is what i have done and i know for a fact they fit. to get the gskills to fit with that mobo and the v6gt, you need to take the front fan off the v6gt, install the ram in the proper slots, then cap the front fan back on. you will have about a 1/4 inch clearance between the front cooler fan and the ram.
doing a very similar build myself. could not find the ram you used on the QVL for the MOBO. Have you had any problems with compatibility? I was going to grab 8GB of the ram you got since im worried about clearance issues with the v6gt and the mobo.
@Alen019 Well its a micro ATX board not mini ITX but the question then becomes why didn't you get a full ATX board with a few more features and options?
Why would you get an i7 for a gaming build, you just wasted so much money that you could have used to get a decent case with good cable management and decent airflow.
@prosp3ct2 yea. its only like $30 more than the locked CPU so even if you aren't planning to OC in the future its still a good thing to pay the extra money.
Cool video, I'm building a very similar build too. i7, gene-z, asus gtx570, gskill 8gb ram, corsair 750w psu, antec cooler, all in a nzxt vulcan case.
@THExVETERAN Yeah i get it now. So you did go with the best, except for the over priced extreme.... which i have, the P67 version, and it aint no better than the $150.00 board.
@THExVETERA That is true, i meant more when it comes to overclcocking. I havent had any more success with this board compared to the P67, or Sabertooth.
V6 GT is very loud on 100% like jet loud, you cant hear you self thinking loud lol.
btw this pc now has Corsair H100 Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler.
OCd to 4.5ghz.

Very well made video. The CPU cooler kinda dwarfs the mobo?
lewisner 6 months ago
Two questions could this actually hold two GPUs on that board? or would they be too close/generate too much heat due to the spacing?
Also you really should have showed it with everything plugged in/lights on etc.
BinaryReaper 6 months ago
@BinaryReaper This board can hold 2 graphics card fine (2slot card max size for the each card) one next to cpu will be 5°C hotter do to spacing.
PCI-E-1 is 16x and 2nd one is 8x so if u get sli or cf u get both at 8x speed.

You know have 16x 8x or 4x makes little to no difference in practice, look up some benchmarks.

@xxsekoxx no it's better because you have more pci-e slots so you can do 3 way sli or 4 way sli. This board would be for a budget enthusiast. lol
