hello and welcome to the scold Channel

and today we're going to be building the

best $2,200 gaming PC in 2025 in a

nutshell this PC is going to be so dang

fast you should have no performance

complaints whether it be 4K 1440p at

very high frame rates and if you wanted

to throw streaming and content creation

video editing and even some other

workloads on this PC as well this $2,200

build can really do it all and if you

don't know how to put together a PC that

looks This Magnificent don't worry I'm

going to show you how to do it step by

step the parts going inside of it how to

install Windows drivers and then it's 4K

gaming performance cuz again it's going

to be freaking overkill for 1440p and of

course my final thoughts on it and even

though this is an expensive PC build my

PC build. G Link in the description

below can show you how to build this PC

at the lowest price possible with all

the parts you'll need to put together

this PC yourself so with all that said

let's get started started okay so if you

want to put together this PC the first

thing you got to do is like this video

that is a requirement sorry I kind of

need you to do that first but other than

that you're going to need a screwdriver

a pair of scissors which I do indeed

have one on my hands and an 8 GB or

bigger USB flash drive for our Windows

11 bootable media device which will

allow us to install Windows 11 on this

PC when we finish building it which

we'll worry about this step when we get

to it otherwise for the processor we are

using okay I actually need that pair of

scissors now we are using the AMD ryzen

7 9800 X 3D this is the fastest gaming

CPU on the market period as of filming

this video but even then eight cores and

16 threads is plenty for gaming what

makes this different though than say a

higher core count 950x or 9900x you

could be comparing this CPU to is that

this has X 3dv cache which if you look

this has up to 96 MB of L3 cache and

that extra L3 cach makes a bigger

difference in gaming performance than

some 12 or 16 core CPU seriously look at

benchmarks this thing is the fastest CPU

on the market again as of filming this

video which is why we're going with it

and then for a motherboard we're going

to pair it up with the MSI X

870p pro motherboard which is not what

we're using in this build guide we're

actually using some b650 ARS Elite

motherboard from gigabytes so why am I

using a completely different motherboard

than the one that I have linked in my PC

builds.gg link here's the reason I

ordered that motherboard it never

shipped out and I've got to stick to the

backup motherboard now even then my

point is you can use whatever

motherboard you want with this PC build

as long as it's ATX it can be a b650

motherboard an x670 motherboard a b850

motherboard or even an x870 motherboard

they will all work with the 9800 xtd

doesn't matter if it's MSI like the one

that I wanted or if it's gigabyte as ack

they'll all work but the reason why I

wanted to recommend that x870

motherboard is because being an 800

series motherboard it's going to work

with our ryzen 9000 CPU out of the box

without a bios update but with an older

motherboard from the 600 series like

this v650 board here it will need a bios

update but even then if you don't have a

7,000 CPU on you you can go ahead and

actually flash a new bios onto these

motherboards if they support Q Flash

without the need of a CPU even inside

the motherboard itself you can do it

outside the PC with a USB flash drive

and a power supply just follow one of

the online tutorials for your

motherboard and that should be pretty

straightforward so that's what I did

here for the 9800 Xtra D so it can work

out of the box with the b650 ARs Elite

ax so tldr you've got many options for

motherboards here for this $2200 PC so

go ahead and unbox it here is our

motherboard and if we look further in

here here is our Wi-Fi antenna oo oo

this looks to be something interesting

this looks like it's an all-in-one IO

adapter for our power switch reset

switch power LEDs HDD LEDs we might need

this actually oh and the most important

thing of all the manual there's a little

QR code right here that'll direct you to

the full manual that can be found on

your phone definitely do that especially

if it's your first time building a PC so

go ahead and take out your 9800 Xtra and

you'll see that there's this triangle on

the top left of the CPU keep that in

mind but for now now let's go ahead and

remove these two plastic brackets right

here from the motherboard we're going to

be installing a water cooler onto this

CPU so we're most likely going to be

removing these plastic brackets that I'm

removing right here but there are some

pumps that may want you to keep this on

but again whichever one you choose

you'll see if you need to remove these

plastic brackets or not and it's not the

end of the world if you take them out

you can just put them back in So now

with our CPU bracket exposed let's go

ahead and lift this up pull this back

take our 9800 X3

again line up the triangle on the top

left of the CPU with the top left of the

socket gently drop this down so it fits

once it's in there give it a little

jiggle that's all good and firm bring

this back hold down the lever hook it

under remove this plastic shroud boom

done so once you've got your CPU

installed now let's go ahead and talk

about the RAM and SSD which for the ram

I have gone with 32 GB of 6,000 MHz cast

latency 30 memory although what you'll

see in the PC build. Gigi link though

will be different because again I

actually recommend you use an x870

motherboard for this PC build and if you

go with an x870 motherboard then that

means you can use faster memory probably

around 6,400 MHz to 6800 MHz which will

give you more performance but again I'm

using a b650 motherboard in this build

it's a backup motherboard so I'm using

this slower memory but again whatever

I've linked in that PC build. G link

will be compati able but yeah 32 GB

that's all you need what matters more is

the speed of your memory and what I've

got again linked is the fastest you can

get for the motherboard for this build

but then for the SSD we've got a 2 TB

Acer GM 7000 so once again whatever I've

linked in that PC build. G link will be

compatible with this build but I want to

point you towards a higher end m.2 SSD

even if it's 2 tab because these higher

end m.2 ssds come with a d controller

that's essentially insurance for your

SSD to help preserve its read and WR

speeds over time and let's see does this

already have a heat sink it does that's

okay but yeah don't cheap out on your

SSD especially if you're spending like

$2,200 on a PC trust me a lot of people

mess that up but again don't worry what

I link on my PC Bill SG link is my1 all

right let's go ahead and put our Ram

onto the motherboard and if you're

wondering where the Ram's going to go

you can actually look on the motherboard

itself and whether it's gigabyte Asus

Aero or gigabyte you can see that there

is ddr5 A1 A2 B1 B2 and there it'll show

you which ones to put it in first which

are typically these two slots here that

are farthest from the CPU with one in

between now if you look at the actual

Ram stick right here the two ends right

here are different sizes so this is only

going to go in one way oh yeah and let's

repeat that for the other stick and I

want to emphasize press these in all the

way there we go then for our m.2 SSD we

we've actually got some m.2 slots down

here for expansion but this topmost one

is the one that we want to use because

that is the fastest so I'm going to go

ahead and swap out to a smaller Philips

head one attachment for our m.2 SSD

Screw As the regular one is a little bit

big you can use it but just want to

point that out if you got a smaller

screwdriver now would be a good time to

use it go ahead and unscrew this take

this out flip it around remove that and

then let's take our Predator m.2 SSD

there's a little insert here on the m.2

SSD which is going to line up with the

notch on the connection meaning this is

only going to go in one way make sure

that clicks in and then for this thing

so you can move this up and down if you

try to put the SSD on it it's not going

to go in but if you press this down it

then folds underneath this plastic thing

and then you can push it back and now

this will stay in place real quick one

thing I did is I removed the pre-inclusion

it on if you want but I did this only

for aesthetical reasons now we can put

that in drop this down now that'll fold

down and we'll screw this back in there

we go okay now let's throw the

motherboard into the lean Le 01 Vision

compact so I saw this case at computex

in 2024 and I was blown away with the

fact that this PC case like look it's

actually not super tall and in terms of

width it's got about the same width as a

stand standard dual chamber PC case

there are other dual chamber PC cases

like this that achieve the same purpose

but are dwarfing in size to this so I'm

really happy to see Lany come up with

the solution to give you that triple

glass frame that looks very

aesthetically pleasing while not

sacrificing on air flow and performance

and even then keeping all this

relatively within moderate size so we're

going to place the motherboard right

here but before we do that let's go ahe

and open up the rear panel which I think

we can just take this thing off and in

the back here is a plastic box full of

all the screws we'll need to install

whatever we want inside the PC case

we're going to need one of these and in

here we're given some spare zip ties

some of these rubber dampers oh and even

some replacements for the rear panel

hinges where you snap on your rear panel

if any of them break you got

Replacements here and that's all pretty

simple now one thing you'll notice I did

swap out the top panel here in a advance

to this glass panel stock it'll come

with this panel right here but again

pre-inclusion TX size pck so 99% of the

time this will work but go ahead and

count off the standoff holes that are on

your motherboard there should be about

nine and then count the standoffs here

at the bottom of the PC case there

should be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 already

pre-installed no need to Tinker with

that so let's go ahead and drop this

down brace it up to this part of the

case we should be able to see the

standoffs through the standoff holes and

then look at the case manual and see the

screws that it requires you to use to

screw in the motherboard it should be

these thinner screws that came with the

PC case and go ahead and start screwing

these in one by one but don't tighten

them all the way the reason why you

don't want to tighten these and just

have them initially in is because once

we have all these screws in then we'll

tighten each of them one by one so

there's equal pressure on all sides of

the motherboard so with this final screw

going into the motherboard now go ahead

and fully tighten this one in all the

way go to a an adjacent corner on the

same motherboard tighten this one up go

to its other Corner tighten this up and

do this in a crisscross formation all

right and now let's go ahead install our

power supply and the CPU Cooler okay for

the power supply I'm going with a 1,000

wat 80 plus gold fully modular power

supply here from gigabyte and no this

one is not going to explode on you this

isn't 2021 anymore it's 2025 gigabyte

have learned from their mistakes and

this 1000 W 80 plus gold power supply is

going to be good for this build you can

get away with 850 watts in fact that's

probably actually recommended for this

build the reason why I'm going for 1,000

watts is because the 9800 x3d is

overclockable and you may just want a

little bit more wattage head room for

that in that case so that's why I went

with 1,000 Watts but if you don't plan

to overclock that 9800 x3d then stick it

to 850 but again whatever I've linked in

that PC Wills side G link is the best

available power supply I've determined

for this build given price and all that

that said this is a future power supply

it comes with the ATX 3.0 connector and

a 12vt power cable for any Nvidia

graphics cards if you wanted to switch

to one of those in the future so this is

a very futureproof power supply while

not costing too much here we're giv some

screws for the power supply we could use

these or we could use the nice silver

ones that came with the Leon Le case

we'll probably use these and here's our

power supply cable that we will need

later on when we first turn on this PC

so to insert this power supply

before you do that let's go ahead and

plug in the cables we'll need for this

power supply since it's fully modular so

first up I'm laying out the four screws

we'll need for the power supply these

are some bigger thicker screws that came

with the leanly so first and foremost

here is our motherboard power connector

we will need this so let's go ahead and

plug this in to where it says MB on the

power supply here we go next we're going

to need two CPU power connectors for our

processor which we can tell by looking

here at the top left of the motherboard

we have an 8 Pin with a four pin this

cable right here already comes with two

of them so I'm going to go ahead and

split one of these ends so it's just a

four pin and the other is an 8 Pin and

I'll go ahead and plug this into where

it says CPU on the power supply and it

doesn't matter which one you plug it

into there we go then for our graphics

card we will need the remaining PCI

power cables that came with this power

supply we've got a total of four plugs

to work with at our disposal we'll only

need three so we'll plug two of these

into where it says pcie on the power

supply plug one end right here and the

other one right below it now keep in

mind we're also given some other power

cables like some SATA power cables and

from the looks of it some old school MX

power cables we'll only need these if

you're going to plug in an old hard

drive into this PC or more commonly some

sort of RGB or fan controller which we

might have with the fans that we got for

this PC case so I'll have these on hand

but I won't plug them in just yet but

plugging them in is not going to be hard

since installing this power supply is

pretty straightforward fan side facing

out you're going to pull this out remove

it bring this in again one more time

there we go and again let's go ahead and

just screw in this power supply with

those case screws that came with the

leanly o1 case there you go easy as that

and it's fine if this is set to the zero

instead of one all right for the CPU

Cooler I'm going with this 360 mm lean

Le ga2 Trinity performance 360 now

here's the cool part you don't actually

need this exact CPU Cooler you can use

an air cooler if you want with this PC

but of course being this style of PC

case you probably want a water cooler

cuz Aesthetics and budget so then when

it comes to what kind of cooler you can

use you can use a 360 you can use a 240

just with this setup that I have in mind

we're going to put the aiio here in the

back now what's cool about the lonly is

that again the top panel here is

swappable you can go from a regular

glass to a mesh and if you go with the

mesh you can actually fit another 360

here on the top if you want so you can

have this be a top mounted AIO if you

want it but the cool party trick with

the O vision compact is that you can fit

an aiio here in the back have the tubes

come through this right here in the back

of the PC case and then onto where your

your CPU is now I will have to change

the direction of the fans but it's going

to go in backwards kind of like this

okay well actually looks like I got to

take out this bracket first but it's

going to go backwards like this with the

fans either this way or flipped I

haven't decided what I want to do yet

but again the tubes they're going to

come around here and this thing is going

to go through here so what I'm going to

do because this is going to take a

little while all I asked is that you go

it can be from enax it can be from

Cooler Master it can be from Asus

Corsair NZXT it can be from any of those

Brands just whatever you do follow the

manual it'll tell you where goes where

with this CPU Cooler the only pointer

I'll give you is that if you want to

follow the right instructions you're

going to want to follow where it says

AMD on your instruction manual because

we're obviously working with an AMD CPU

so again follow the tutorial provided by

your CPU Cooler and I'll catch up with

you guys later okay I come to you from

the future um this build we may have had

to put it on the shelf for a little bit

but that's because we came across an

issue so that aiio that I was using

originally a few moments ago is too wide

for the Brack kit here that allows you

to have that reverse mounted aiio if you

look at the footage it was too wide and

we literally couldn't fit it in which is

really surprising because I never

expected to potentially run into that

issue with one of Le and Le's own water

coolers so we had to return that get a

different one and I just went ahead and

used this one from PC cooler I didn't do

any Dimension checking or measurement

checking none of that I just wanted to

get an AIO that was all white with white

fans that I could mount on the other

side of the radiator so you didn't see

them and that's what this cooler was set

out to achieve and I think we mostly got

it the radiator was slim enough to fit

in the bracket I just really think that

lean Le AIO that we originally used was

just too wide and we were able to get

the tubing around the cool little access

port there on the top left and we were

able to get the pump mounted directly

onto the CPU so again whatever I have

linked in that PC build side GG link for

the CPU Cooler should work for this

build you don't have to get this exact

PC cooler AIO I could have something

cheaper than this but then again I think

just about anything that isn't an overly

expensive AO should work in this PC

build I want to say that one from lean

Lee was a bit thicker because it's a bit

more premium but I think any mainstream

standard 360 mm AIO should work with

this PC but there's also a second thing

you come out this aiio in two different

ways so I did it kind of the flashy way

that you can do with the 01 Vision

Compact and that is having It reversed

mount with the fans in an exhaust

formation so whenever you look at the

fan blades you don't see the fan you see

the motor here on the back first that

way it's pushing air backwards and then

I have a second set of fans here on the

front from Lee and Lee that are pushing

air into the aiio so it's pushing air in

and then the fans on the back are

pulling air back out so it's all

basically exhausting out of the PC case

so in total this is six case fans this

is the very premium and Visually

appealing way to do it but there's also

another way and that's to do it

traditionally you don't have to fit

another three set of fans like what I

did here to make in total six you can

just flip around the bracket and then

mount an aiio as usual like what you do

in any standard PC case from the side

which the O 11 Vision compact also

supports and it's also simpler to

install as well cuz you don't need to

bring around like the AO cables like

what I did here all in all you've got

options with the O vision compact if you

want to go the distance of mounting up

the six fans in this PC case right here

on the side you can do that but if you

also want to simplify things and just

have the AIO mounted traditionally with

the cables here visible with only having

three fans you can also do that as well

so with all of that Exposition done we

need to go ahead and start plugging in

all the cables into the motherboard and

getting all that stuff set up before we

put in the graphics card so let me go ah

and show you guys the steps you're going

to take to hooking everything up so this

is going to be divided into three

sections the power supply cas cables the

front IO and then our CPU Cooler cables

and additional fan cables if we wanted

to install any additional fans into this

PC case which the majority of it is

going to be right here but you can also

fit some fans on the bottom which I'll

be doing later but we can just daisy

chain those up to these fans it's not

going to be that bad but anyways I'm

going to go ahead and hook up all the

front IO first then these fans here for

the CPU Cooler and the RGB and then

we'll finish out with the power cables

so let's start with all of our front IO

cables with our HD audio connector cable

here this is going to go on the bottom

left of the motherboard and if you're

wondering where all of the different

locations are for each of these

individual plugs for your motherboard

again reference the motherboard manual

it'll have a map of the motherboard and

where to plug in what but no matter what

the HD audio no matter what motherboard

you choose or for that matter even what

brand it's always going to be here in

the bottom left this is only going to go

in one way like that then here is our

front panel header this is going to go

right here on the bottom left and

fortunately with this leanly case all

the individual plugs are already

soldered Al together in this singular

connector so we just need to plug this

in right here where it belongs again

check the motherboard manual if you want

to find where that is and there you go

next up we've got our USB type-c header

and as you can see we've got this little

notch on the connector that's going to

line up with this insert on the

connection itself we have this GPU sack

bracket that is already here so we're

probably going to need to move this up

for now that way we can slot this in

like that and then up here we've got our

USB type-c header it's going to go right

here it's only going to go in one way

you really can't mess this up if you

don't think it's going to go flip it

around and try again there we go that

worked okay so first for all of these

fans here to our left I'm actually going

to start off with the lean Le fans that

are visible here on the front because

what's pretty cool about these new lean

Lee SL Wireless fans is that all of the

RGB which would usually be all the RGB

cables and stuff like that is controlled

wirelessly through a USB dongle which is

really neat so what that allows us to do

is only have the fan just be controlled

by a single pwm connector which is

extremely convenient and allows us to

not have to load up this case with even

more cables from the RGB from the fans I

can plug this into whatever header I

want here on the motherboard for the fan

I'm going to go ahead and plug it into

this Cy fan header here at the very

bottom line that up plug it in

easy then for the CPU Cooler right here

there's a bunch of different cables and

I'm want to kind of go through each of

them one by one so we're given two

different what they look like to be fan

header cables here but one of them is

for the pump and the other one is for

the actual fans here on the rear of the

eio so this bigger one here is

connecting all three fans into a single

cable as you guys saw in the previous

clip I'm going to go ahead and throw

this to where it says CPU fan because

those are the fan F that are cooling off

our CPU Cooler then for the pump right

here cuz the pump needs to be controlled

as well right next to CPU fan there is

CPU opt which is CPU optional and that's

usually where you can plug in your

header for your pump like that now one

more thing I do want to say is that the

specific CPU Cooler does have on board

CPU temp monitoring that you can see as

a display on the CPU Cooler itself as

you can see in the marketing photos you

can indeed do this I'm just not going to

in this build because the cable here is

too short it can't reach any of the USB

2.0 headers here on the bottom like what

it says here on the cable itself meaning

I'm probably going to go ahead and link

a different CPU Cooler than this one

because if you can't have this USB 2.0

cable reaching the bottom of this PC

case then let's just go ahead and choose

a cooler that doesn't have any sort of

CPU temp monitoring at all and we'll

just use a generic white one with just a

cool little RGB thing here for the pump

also we've got a 5vt argb header that

came with the CPU Cooler I'm going to go

ahead and plug that in so at least

there's RGB for the pump and there you

go now let's go ahead and start plugging

in our CPU power cables and they are

going to be these two separate 4x4

connectors so as you can see here where

the CPU power cable is we've got an 8

pin and a four pin connection so for our

eight pin as you can see we've got a

latch right here on the connector it's

going to line up with this notch on the

connection bring the two together it

should only click in one way like that

and then we're going to use just one of

the two four pins right here for this

secondary connector like that and then

here is our big chunky motherboard power

connector we're going to plug this in

right here again you have a latch

there's the notch the two to two go in

together bring it in press it in bam and

then finally all the way down here we're

going to need three pcie power cables

like these they are six pin by two pin

connectors but most of them should just

be already conjoined into four and we're

going to be plugging three of these into

our graphics card which let's talk about

now which then leads us to the best part

of the video the graphics card which I

have chosen you can use anything you

want you can use Nvidia you can use AMD

you can use Intel you can use the new

RTX 590 if you really wanted to because

again we've got a 1,000 W power supply

in this PC build the only thing you're

going to be constrained by as far as

what graphics card you choose is how

much power the power supply can deliver

to that graphics card and for the

upcoming RTX 590 if you have at least a

1,000 wat power supply then you're good

so I mean whether you want to use a 5090

80 4080 4090 570 TI 4070 TI or the one

we're actually using for this build the

Radeon RX 7900 XTX they're all going to

work and again whatever I've linked on

my PC bill at GG link could be different

just it all comes down to availability

because understand if you want to get

those new RTX 5000 cards which will be

perfectly compatible in this PC build

the only thing you're going to be

fighting are scalpers not system

compatibility so anyways why am I going

with this radon card that is technically

last Generation Well few reasons one AMD

is still making it two it's going to get

even cheaper and three in terms of

specifications like it's still going to

hold its own in 2025 because don't

forget this has 24 4 GB of vram and that

is just really nice for future proofing

even the new rumored Radeon RX 970 XT is

not going to be faster than this this is

still going to be faster and it's still

going to come with even more vram as

well at 24 so this is the one I

recommend mostly because it's probably

going to be the only one you'll be able

to get in stock cuz have you tried

getting a 5090 or 5080 or 5070 TI come

March probably not cuz of scalpers but

this 700 XTX which is still very capable

and still very fast you can still get it

anyways I'm going to go ahead and take

off all of this stuff right here and

I'll meet you guys when I'm ready to put

this in so to insert this we're going to

take off this PCI latch protector and

then we're going to go ahead and remove

the PCI slots that are going to occupy

the radon card so it's going to be these

these two slots right here not the

topmost go ahead and unscrew these all

right and with these two removed I'm

going to go ahead and bring in the

graphics card right here it looks like

our sag bracket here is getting in the

way so I'm going to go ahead and lower

this see if that'll work also as you can

see we got some protective covers here

for the display ports I'm going to go

ahead and remove some of these cuz it's

also getting in the way okay this is

probably going to go all right 3 2 1

Click press it in all the way there we

go and we have this sag bracket right

here actually already holding up the

graphics card let me go ahead and

tighten this up let's go ahead and screw

back in the graphics card into the PC C

case and now for all these power cables

down here let's go ahead and just start

plugging these into the graphics card

one by one you have the latch here it's

going to line up with the notch on each

connection make sure they're fully

inserted there we have it now let's go

ahead turn on this PC and see if it

works and finally let's go ahead and

turn on this PC so the steps you got to

take are super simple plug in your

keyboard and your mouse into your PC

that should be pretty straightforward

but for display we're going to use a

display port cable now it can be HDMI it

can be display port it can be whatever

you want just what matters is that you

plug this down here where the graphics

card is here's where the cable is it's

coming from down here not from up here

where the motherboard is down here where

the graphics card is and then we're

going to plug the other end into our

monitor but don't forget you need to

provide Power to your monitor as well so

don't forget the power cable to your

monitor a lot of people forget that then

we want to pull out that power cable

that came with our power supply plug one

end into a wall outlet and then the

other end into the power supply which

I'll go ahead and do now and I'll go

ahead and flick the switch from the zero

to the one and with all of that done

finally go ahead and bust out your

windows bootable media device this can

be any 8 GB or bigger USB flash drive

and creating one of these is really

simple I've got a YouTube tutorial

Linked In the description below showing

you how to create one of these for free

and once you've done that we'll go ahead

and come over here plug this into one of

the USB 3.2 ports one of the blue ones

and with that let's press the power

button and see what happens if you get a

message like this just press y to

proceed or F1 whatever allows you to

move forward and once you see the

spinning Circle you're in now let's go

ahead and install Windows all right

let's go ahead and set up windows so

it's super easy hit next install now

here's where you can enter in your

Windows product key if you have one I

don't have one on me we can deal with

this later so I'll click I don't have a

product key we'll select Windows 11 home

that's totally fine I accept next custom

there's our 2 TB drive next and wait it

out okay once youve reach here go ahead

and choose your country choose your

preferred keyboard layout here is going

to go ahead and connect to your internet

now you've got two options here you can

either go ahead and plug in a spare USB

Wi-Fi card into the back of your PC and

connect to your router which yes this

motherboard does have onboard Wi-Fi but

it doesn't have any drivers so it can't

detect anything or you can install

Windows 11 without the need of Wi-Fi

whatsoever as you can see on screen you

can actually bypass this with the right

command prompt but I've got a Wi-Fi card

like this one I'm just going to plug

into the back of the PC and just

continue with installation here you're

welcome to name your PC I'm not going to

I'm just going to go ahead and Skip now

here's we're going to go ahead and sign

in to your Microsoft account now this

could be a leftover Xbox Live account

this could be a previous Microsoft

account from something you had to make

for school or something like that or if

you don't have one you can go ahead and

make one if you're given an option like

this just hit more options set up as a

new pc set up as a new pc create a pin

this is what you'll use to type into the

PC every time you turn it on or wake it

up now for all these privacy settings

and pretty much from here on out I just

decline every single one of them because

they're just additional add-ons to your

Windows Experience and I don't want that

I just want a clean and Bare Bones

experience so I'll link back up with you

guys at the Windows desktop okay so once

you've made it here to the Windows

desktop we're going to go ahead and

first install the drivers for our PC so

go ahead and choose your preferred web

browser of choice I'm going to use Edge

just because it's already installed and

first let's go ahead and take care of

our motherboard drivers and utility so

we'll go ahead and type in the name of

our mother Ward which is b650 aorus

Elite ax ice all right and once we are

on here we'll go ahead and click support

downloads and here we can go ahead and

download right here under driver we can

download our audio driver here under

chipset we can download our AMD chipset

driver here under WL we can install our

Bluetooth and Wifi drivers which are

necessary if you don't have those

installed yet and that's really about it

although I guess you can install these

additional utilities like this lighting

controller from more upgrade but for now

I won't be needing that so I'm going to

go ahead and extract each of these and

download or not download run each of

them one by one so as you can see I'm

pretty much installing everything so

while this is all going on I'm going to

go ahead and start downloading the files

for our graphics card driers so since

we're using a Radeon RX 700 XTX all we

got to do is just simply type in AMD

drivers go here to drivers and support

here's where you can download the auto

detect but we already know a graphics

card we're using so we'll go ahead and

select 7100 XTX submit windows 11

download we'll go ahead and let that

finish downloading but first let's go

ahead and let all of these finish

installing first okay and once all of

those utilities and drivers are

installed let's go ahead and finally

install those graphics card drivers for

our 7900 XTX there's our graphics card

hit install and wait it really is that

simple all right so once you see this

finished we're going to go ahead and

restart our PC so we'll go ahead and hit

restart and we're going to enter the

BIOS and do one final thing and enter

the BIOS it's pretty easy we're just

going to hit the delete key on our

keyboard as soon as the brand of the

motherboard shows up all you're going to

do once you're in the Bios it just go

down here to where it says Expo profile

click on the drop down select profile

one save and exit and then you are ready

gaming ooh so I promise we'll play some

more intensive games in a bit especially

rate tracing games because of course if

you're going to spend this much on a

gaming PC you wanted to do ra tracing

but this is just to get an

idea just to get an idea of the

performance so we're running counter-

strike 2 at

4K and look at that frame rate on the

top left this is at 4K not even 1080p so

one thing I find oh wow one thing I find

really odd with you Gamers who are

obsessed about performance and frame

rate is that at times you won't even

care about the graphics so I wouldn't be

surprised if I see someone build this PC

and then start playing Counter Strike 2

at like 10 DP on it which is just

ridiculous but some people will do that

that was really short but the frame R is

on the top left I literally didn't even

look at the graphic settings it looked

perfectly fine to me let's do a game

that's more graphically demanding I was

told rad on cards couldn't do raid

tracing and here we are running a

Hogwarts Legacy a very demanding PC game

with get guess what guess what guess

what oh read a cut scene bro come on

here okay look seriously

settings 4K yes we have AMD FSR turned

on but you'd have the same thing if it

were dlss for an Nvidia card Graphics

high high high high rate tracing on

Reflections High R tracing Shadows on

quality High rasing ambient occlusion on

rasing Geometry quality High I mean this

is just a notch below extreme which to

be fair if you really wanted that just

extra 5% of graphical Glory you're going

to have to drop thousands of dollars on

an RTX 590 but here on this 700 XTX we

are running R tracing and these high

graphic settings pretty well actually I

I kind of like this a little bit better

than cyberpunk actually and we are

getting above 60 FPS which is completely

fine for a game like this because

Hogwarts Legacy isn't a competitive FPS

game it's a single player story driven

customizable game that you would want to

at least 60 FPS On and Here at 4K we're

having basically no issues anyways this

should put away any doubts that this PC

can't do raid tracing it absolutely can

even if it has an AMD radon card check

yourself this is doing raate tracing

with everything turned on above 60 FPS

at 4K this is plenty this is absolutely

plenty and the best part at least with

this graphics card I mean depending on

when you view this video you don't have

to drop thousands of dollars this is

actually doing yeah rate tracing

decently well just because it has that

much raw horsepower and it's got 24 GB of

vram done deal done deal let's do one

more game it's over $2,000 it's going to

freaking run it at like four 500 FPS

okay now admittedly now here's here's

the funny thing I'm actually doing this

at 1080p not even at 4K why because you

fortnite Gamers you're special you're

probably among the few Gamers that

couldn't give you couldn't care about

Graphics you really couldn't you tie so

much of your self worth to this game and

so much of your performance through this

game is dictated by the frame rate it's

like if you are getting like above 240

FPS on fortnite you aren't being a

successful player or something like that

and you want to know something else as

well your monitor probably doesn't even

go above 144 htz so you can't even see

anything above 100 144

FPS yeah so it's pointless this is this

is completely pointless I'm I'm getting

we're getting 330 FPS at t0p for all you

Fort Nutters out there who need to feel

like you have the fastest thing in the

world yeah but like bro you don't need

to build a $2,000 gaming PC to run

fortnite you can build something for

half this price and still get like above

200 FPS at TP there really is a point of

diminishing returns with fortnite it it

is a stupid easy game to run and I know

you guys you don't even care about the

regular API you just go straight to

Performance mode like what I've got

right here we look 1080p performance

mode I literally have epic view distance

but everything else is at low and that's

all you guys care about it's just frame

rate and even if you run fortnite

normally it's still going to get a

buttload of frame rate I don't need to

say anything more bro just leave it th

this game's going to run fine you spent

$2,000 and above on a PC it's going to

run fortnite anyways let's wrap up the

video all right so should you build this

$2200 gaming PC honestly no reason being

it's already fast it's stupid fast this

5% of PC Gamers I think currently play

on a 4K gaming Monitor and that is the

target of this gaming PC is 4K

resolution if you think at all of

playing this PC at 1440p or 1080p even

at a high refresh rate you are wasting

your money you can get ridiculously good

performance for half this price at about

even like $1,200 like in my latest

$1,200 gaming PC build guide it's still

kind of old still more or less up to

date though that will rip it at

1440p and this is just way too much

icing on an already good cake seriously

now that said if you want something that

absolutely has the Aesthetics then this

is it the Leon Le 01 Vision compact is a

really nice looking PC case and I do

like the fact that you can kind of hide

the tubes from the aiio and almost in a

way stuff it behind this back panel

right here so all you just see is this

Mirage of PC case fans so if you're

looking for a SI yeah you're going to

have to pay a pretty penny but M the

ecosystem can offer it and actually kind

of working their Wireless fans together

was not that bad at first I was was

super confused but all you have to

literally do is go into the BIOS set

full power for all of these fans and

from there you can start getting a

signal with your wireless RGB like what

I've going on right here with this USB

stick that came with the le le fan kit

but I mean once you got that set up

you've got a ton of customization at

your disposal for this leanly ecosystem

so high price point aside if you want

something for Aesthetics then I do think

going down this route is worth it other

than that though that is it for this

build video if you want to find all the

parts that I used to put together this

PC then go ahead and check out the PC

build. G Link at the top of the
