- Hey guys, this is Austin.
Today we're going to be building myself
a brand new gaming PC rig.
It has been quite a while since I've actually
built a system that's going to be for my own
personal gaming exploits, and it seems like
a good excuse to do another PC build tutorial.
To better hone my Fortnite skills, Dave,
we've got some pretty high-end hardware.
Most of that is thanks to Intel who were
awesome enough to sponsor this video.
First of all, we have the 32GB Optane module.
We're actually going to be doing something
kind of cool with this a little bit later
with our Steam drive, but we also have this;
the holy grail of gaming CPUs,
the Core i7 8086.
What separates this from a standard Core i7 is
while it's still going to have that same
six-core design, it's going to be clocked even higher.
The boost clock on this guy is 5GHz
and that's out of the box.
As a K-series processor,
we can overclock it even farther,
although 5GHz is pretty fast.
For the case, I'm using the NZXT H700i.
This is a very large case; it actually does support
EATX motherboards, as I almost cut myself with the knife.
That would've been bad.
But one of the main reasons why I wanted to
go with this is because this is my new build
that I actually wanna use for a while
and I wanna be able to have plenty of expansion.
With my setup currently as-is at home,
space really isn't an issue, so it should be
no problem to be able to fit
this guy underneath the desk.
Before we get too far into the build,
one of the first things I wanna do is
start swapping out some fans.
This case actually does have quite a few.
It has three 120-millimeter fans up front.
The problem is is that they're not RGB,
and of course we need RGB.
The next step of the build is the motherboard,
so we are using the ASUS PRIME Z370-A.
ASUS generally makes some pretty solid boards,
in fact they make some of the best boards period.
And on top of that, we're also trying to
unify everything around Aura Sync.
Whether we'll actually get everything onboard
is another story, but this should do the job.
One of the nice things about going with
a Z370 board like this is that
we're going to be able to support
not only our M.2 SSD, we can also take advantage
of Optane at the same time.
We're going to be using Optane in a little bit of
a different method than usual.
Typically speaking, you would pair this with
a standard mechanical hard drive,
you would run Windows, absolutely everything on it,
and the advantage is that this is going to give you
a much, much faster response time on things that
you're going to be using on a regular basis.
Think about Windows, your main programs.
Anything that the system sees that you're
constantly using, it will keep stored
in the Optane cache.
But for this video, we're actually going to be
taking advantage of this for a Steam library.
Inside this very plain box, we have what is
a pretty plain-looking hard drive.
But this, my friends, is something kind of special.
This is a full 14-terabyte Toshiba hard drive.
Not only is this basically the biggest hard drive
that you can get your hands on today,
but this paired with Optane means that we're
going to have 14 terabytes of some
very, very fast storage.
If we really wanted to go crazy, we could've picked up
14 terabytes-worth of SSDs,
but that's going to be ridiculous
and it's also going to be really expensive.
And yeah, that 14TB hard drive isn't cheap,
but at $550 plus the cost of an Optane module
which is really reasonably priced,
we're going to be getting a lot of the speed,
but in a much, much simpler
and much less expensive package.
Installing Optane memory is
going to be very straightforward.
We just need to line it up and then,
if we use a single screw, we can hold it into place.
The only thing you need to keep in mind
is whether or not your motherboard actually
does support Optane memory.
What are you doing?
Oh, okay, okay.
In addition to being useful when you're building
your own PC, Optane is available in pre-built systems
such as desktops and laptops, some of which I've
already taken a look at very recently.
For the rest of our system storage,
we're going to be using a Samsung 970 PRO SSD.
This is not going to be strictly necessary.
Technically we could run everything off of
the 14TB Optane setup, but what's not to like
about a little bit of extra overkill in our lives?
Now comes the sad part; cutting the factory seal
on one of the very few 8086's
that are left in the wild.
It's going to a good place.
Try to be very, very gentle with this.
With the 8086 onboard, it's just a matter of
lining it up with our processor,
not using the super cool Asus tool,
and we should be good to go.
We also have some memory, by the way,
in case anyone cares.
We've got 16 gigs of G.SKILL Sniper X,
which should give us plenty of speed,
especially considering this is actually
rated up to 3400MHz.
Progress.
We have our motherboard inside the system.
We also do have our cooler.
Because we do have such a high-end CPU,
we did opt for a 240-millimeter all-in-one cooler,
so this is going to be the Corsair H100i Pro
with extra RGB because Ken thought RGB
would be a good idea for this system.
On top of that, we also do have our
14TB hard drive installed.
It's going to be tucked around back,
so it's gonna be right here.
But the important thing is is that
you don't wanna look at that,
you wanna look at the cool stuff like this;
the GTX 1080 Ti,
which was graciously donated for three days
by a good friend of ours who shall not be named.
He wanted to be anonymous.
This is the ROG Poseidon Platinum Edition
of the 1080 Ti.
What's interesting about this card is
it actually has built-in cooling for
not only water, but also liquid.
Wait, did I just say water and liquid? (laughs)
Because this is a hybrid card that can be used with
liquid or air cooling,
it should be pretty easy to integrate in the build.
With that, we have what is
basically the completed build.
All that's left to do now is tidy up
the cable management, put the case back together,
and see if this actually is going to work.
My favorite part of any PC build.
After a night of Windows updates
and cable management, the next step is to get
Intel Optane memory up and running.
The first thing we need to do is make sure that
everything is set up in the BIOS.
Not only do we have our 14TB drive
showing up here, but importantly we also have
Intel Rapid Storage Technology turned on.
Then you just need to install
the Intel Optane utility, and after a quick restart,
we're going to be able to see that not only is our
Optane module showing up, but we also have our
SATA drive, which in this case is the 14TB guy.
So now if I just hit Enable,
(laughs) this is so unnecessary.
They did not have to make the (laughs) animation so cool.
We now have an Intel Optane volume
with 13,039 gigabytes.
Windows just sees it as a single drive,
which is one of the advantages of Optane,
so you don't need to do any kind of
switching back and forth.
It's going to be able to do everything in the background.
If we just go ahead and create a new volume,
should be able to ...
Just mount it there.
Okay, we're formatted.
If I open up our drives, there we go.
We've got our Optane drive,
which looks like it's gonna be totally fine.
Right now I'm just copying over a single Steam game
which is going to be PUBG,
but one of the advantages of having 14 terabytes
for our Steam drive is we can install, what,
like 175 75-gigabyte games.
That's like all the games.
And with that, my new PC build is complete,
unless you count Jay's graphics card,
which I should probably give him back.
But luckily for us, there's going to be
a new graphics card soon,
so maybe stay tuned for that.
Give me a little bit of time to download
14 terabytes of games.
I can do a part two to this video, right?
