So far, best one I had was EVGA. Had an issue with a 1000w Supernova. Messaged them, with a video of whats wrong. No questions asked, they sent me a 1000w platinum because they ran out of the same 1000 g2 that I had. They sent it fast from evga germany to uk before asking me to send the broken one so I can be up and running immediately. Worst one's are gigabyte and msi. Had issues with both. And support will keep pushing you and delaying you. Telling you that it might be your fault etc. Etc. Until you just give up and they win. Ever since then, I try avoid those two and just use evga for brand new stuff. Unless if I buy used at a decent price.

I've been building systems for many years (too many, maybe). Much as I enjoy trying different ideas and types of builds, I've just never been able to get excited about liquid cooling. It adds unnecessary complexity, weight, risk, and cost to a build. It makes no sense to me whatsoever, and I can't understand why some folks think it's a good idea. I'd rather spend the money earmarked for all of that pointless equipment on better components. But hey, that's just me and what do I know? The world would be a pretty boring place if we were all the same.

TBF as much as i can agree with your point, some people take PC Building as "Art" and who wouldn't want to perfect and beautify your "art" especially if dont really need another PC component and just wanted to invest in on single PC, provided you have excess money for your hobby? Personally i find the metal tubing and the glossiness + the way the pipeline structured is pretty cool, but i personally wouldnt really build it, as you said, its costly and weight a lot. Risky part, i would say pretty subjective, i heard there are coolant that are non conductive and stuff (Too lazy too fact check) so it doesnt immediately short circuit as easy. And AIO Liquid has very low chance of leaking. Complexity is depending on what material you use for pipe lining, some require more tool and kit to setup and some just Plug and fill it with water. One more thing, Liquid cooling DOES have many more potential than Air Cooler in term of efficiency (Smaller AIO Cooler might perform the same as beefy air cooler, im using NH-D14 while i love the cooler but it take so much space for my ram slot that it limited the choice that i had, and its pretty heavy)

Depends. I have tried 3 ways, high tier components but are all reference design with loud air coolers. Or high tier components with top tier custom pcb design with eye candy custom cooler and aesthetics. Or high tier components with water cooling with ek. Hands down aesthetic wise water cooling looks beautiful. And very silent offering great cooling. Followed by the pc build with top tier components. i.e. a build compose of all asus rog parts as an example. Then the last one, high tier components but mostly reference designs and usually run hot and loud. I.e. inno3d, zotac, etc. And some cheap mobo. Now the issue with watercooling in my experience. 1: it cost a lot of money, I have tried it. And for real it eats a lot of cash. As you said, Id rather add that money to a top tier gpu. But hands down, aesthetic wise it looks the best. At least for me. So far I have done 5 watercooling builds. Two times hard tubing, 3 times soft tubes. Never again. The rest are air cooled. 2: when it comes to cleaning the loop and refilling new liquid. It is a right pain in the buttocks. Specially with busy work schedule. You have no time. Like legit sometimes you just wanna go home, turn on the pc and play. As you get old, you might have the cash to buy the pc of your dreams. But you lose the time you once had playing pc games when you were young simultaneously. 3: it can be a pain upgrading stuff, as everything is in a loop. So now I mostly just build air cooled systems. And just make sure I got good cpu cooler. (Got a short video of my current system, and happy with that now) And a gpu with good custom design that runs max 65 celsius under load while running very silently. good example. Rtx 3080 or 3090 from zotac runs at 71+ under load and it is like a hurricane in a case. Now the same rtx card from msi suprim or asus tuf or rog, full load at 4k, max 65 celsius and barely hear it. And they look nice, easy to clean, easy upgrade. But yeah, once you tried. You will know the pros and cons. For now sticking with all aircooled!

I've had a mobo fail to POST when there was no CPU fan connected, and the board didn't even have an option for monitoring fan failures.

You built it, that was bound to happen sooner or later

Stick with the RMA process is the way to go. A video if you can with the any problems or the whole experience with Asus RMA department, would be great. Or even an overview of the replacement board. Ps. Have a nice time in our country. Eat well stay hydrated beware the sun and have a save trip back to your homeland!

Man what a month. Jay decides to refresh Symbiote, Linus and Paul get new offices, and now Kyle is working on Chrometheus again.

I loved this because I just started a job as a customer service rep. It’s very cool to see your experience and I’m intrigued with how the refurb pans out!

Everytime I come back to this channel I land on a video where Kyle has Bricked the BIOS of a motherboard! This is actually surreal. I can't believe how this man has killed so many motherboards. Kyle, you stand alone on this planet as the person who has single handedly destroyed the most motherboards without even trying.

Maybe I'm seeing it wrong but troubleshooting 101 pops up: that POST-error could still be component-related.. have you reseated everything and swapped out i.e. some memory just in case?

Too bad about the borked BIOS, even more about the malfunctioning GPU. Would like to see if the replacement finally breathes life into Chromethius - a fine system like that deserves a new lease on life. Looking forward to future content on your chromy-boi! Chin up, Kyle! Everyone messes up sometimes and BIOS updates still give me heart palpitations today.

Did you try connect a drive (SSD) to it and check if you still have the error? The POST error has a drive icon over the text... Maybe removing the drives you previously configured in a RAID is preventing it to boot correctly? You may also try to reset the CMOS to fix that issue.

If I recall correctly EK has pretty much tried to standardize fitting placement with there matrix 7 system (and they were already doing that a bit in the past) so you might only need extensions to fit any RTX 4000 series cards

Maybe a combination of the two options: Contact your rep at Asus to ask for a refurbished unit of the same board, then return the two broken boards that you have. It's essentially the RMA process, but you wouldn't feel guilty about Asus sending over another brand new board.

Go thru the RMA process like the rest of us and somehow educate who haven't experienced having to RMA their PC component/s.

Finaly the chromemithius rebuild, i have been so anxious to finaly see an update! Keep up the amazing content :D

As if watching HTPC 2.0 could be the worse nightmare for any PC builder, this video proves there's even WORSE nightmares

I have this motherboard with a 3960X. It has BIOS flashback and Dual BIOS. His troubleshooting steps are terrible. To properly troubleshoot this, you need to get the board to a respectable state, meaning put an air cooler on it with a fan connected to the CPU FAN header. The motherboard will not post without a fan connected to the CPU FAN header or plug the gpu loop holes, fill the loop, and use the liquid cooling properly, remembering to connect one of the radiator fans to the CPU FAN header. Next, clear the CMOS. I have no idea why that wasn't his first step. The board has a CMOS reset button on the rear IO so he didn't even have to jumper any pins. The motherboard should now at least display a screen saying "Press F1 or Delete to enter the bios". It doesn't even need a storage drive to post. If you do try and post without a storage drive after entering the bios and rebooting it will give a post error saying incorrect drive or no drive detected. If at this point it still won't post, switch over to the second BIOS using the internal BIOS Switch, clear the CMOS, and start the system. I had an issue with the latest BIOS firmware 1603, that wouldn't allow me to disable the onboard Intel 1GbE LAN and WiFi controllers without going through a CPU Code 7 error followed by a TEST CMOS error. Asus was able to develop a new firmware and send it to me. The special BIOS worked perfectly! There's no reason to RMA this board at this point, just better troubleshooting. Also, these boards haven't been made in over a year, if you want a new one, you'll be paying over $1100 for a new one.

When I first started watching this I "wagered" (Old timey word... yes I know.) you were using an Asus board, never update the bios with xmp enabled. If you're doing flashback disable xmp, sometimes there's a mechanical switch physically on the board, make sure it's off and you should be fine. If you did all the above then yes... you are cursed, there is no hope, although the RMA gods are generally forgiving in my experience.

Are you sure an SSD installed while trying to POST? it had an HDD logo during the post error and it's possible that it aborted when it realized there were no flash drives or storage volumes attached.

there is always content when you make a video, whether it's a failed video or not kyle, we enjoy seeing the work you do even if it fails.

My thoughts on the options: (This is gonna be long) 1- RMA is good content for builders to see. RMA is usually the final option for most people to get a working PC. It stresses the fact that buying piecemeal is not a good idea, because (bare minimum cpu, some form of graphics, psu, mobo, memory, storage and cpu cooling) is necessary to test those components. Case, additional storage, keyboard, mouse, unicorn vomit, monitor (hdmi to tv for previous test) can be bought seperately afterward. A proper boot test should have been preformed, 1 stick ram, cpu cooler and fan plugged in, sata storage to get through ALL POST (Power On Self Test) checks. 2- Call rep feeds into the "Entitled Tech Tuber" connotation. To me it sounds like "Broke it, Gimme (for a back burner piece that was never completed and is no longer relevant) because [I'm] impatient and lazy"

Everything you do is a learning experience. If you think a video shouldn't be posted, just posted it!

Their techs at ASUS kept assuming hardware issues and didn't want to look into it being their own fault; this escalated to as high as the office of the CEO and VP of Technical Service... neither office could figure out what was going on until I kept pushing for them to check their software.

I'm really surprised they'll RMA that. I'd really like to hear about your experience with the RMA process, with none of your connections being involved. But this is why I have a UPS that use to update BIOS's. Removes the biggest risk factor from interrupting the flash process.

Hi Kyle, I have a long history of boot troubles with asus motherboards including those horrid boot failures without dumping you into bios screen. In my experience I've found that clearing CMOS and then trying to boot several times eventually goes into a fail state bios, from where you can try to diagnose the trouble (and see what temp that beautiful threadripper is being tortured at). Maybe worth a try.

Hey Kyle - with brass tubing, you can use a standard deburring/chamfer tool like you would with PETG to fix those gnarly looking edges. They work for brass just as well as any other tubing.

RMA the board dude, go the route of the common man. It will feel that much more satisfying when you actually get it working.

Have you tried both bios? Are both bricked? After all, the normal Zenith II Extreme also has dual BIOS. I have the Alpha and in the worst case I can simply switch to the second BIOS.

*At Asus RMA* Customer service: *sigh* Lyle has ruined another board hasn't he poor Kyle

Had the same scare today. Bios wasn't updating after hours and I had to pull the plug. Then system wouldn't boot. Luckily after trying flashback 4 times It updated and worked.

I vote RMA process for the next update video. Document the process, show us, then install your RMA board, and get it working until you get a new RTX-4K card.

@@frederickpolk nope, no resolution. I appealed it, I even used their CEO link. They refused and offered to repair it for like 390. I could buy the board brand new for 259 off amazon. Ended up just buying a different brand and will never buy asus again.
