I don't need a guide on how to build a PC but I watched this from start to finish, just for the shear quality of the content. Optimum Tech has to be the only channel I can just sit back, chill and watch without ever hitting the 5 sec skip. I love this channel so much!

That GPU release button is probably the best motherboard upgrade in a decade! When you have huge CPU air cooler, add just as large GPU and install some m.2 below GPU it's basically impossible to reach the PCIE release lever from any side. Except with a very long screwdriver between the CPU and GPU from the top, but also depends on the GPU backplate and then there is the risk of the screwdriver slipping and hitting your expensive MB. Finally someone from manufacturers has addressed that stupid thing.

4:42-6:31 - Installing the CPU. Thank you for making this. Although I've installed CPU dozens of times, I still enjoy watching every thing you explained in the footage. The true passion always inspire others and makes you videos appreciated
Great vid! I did like the longer format. You've done a few "how to build a PC" videos, but none as in-depth as this. I've built numerous PCs and still enjoyed the content!
Love the video. Your display is always so clean and it scratches an itch for me dude. Appreciate the content, i know ive used it in my builds!
Always great to see one of Ali's build guides. These are consistently well executed and a joy to watch. Goddamn @ those angles and colors!
One of the best PC build guides I've seen in a while.
I always like the videos a minute in because of the production quality. one of the best on KZread imo

Another amazing video from Optimum Tech. Didn’t even need to watch it but I did just because of the quality content that he is putting out there, the time and effort put into this, and how well he explains this for the newbies. Just a couple notes that weren’t thoroughly explained in this video for the newbies: 1. Make sure you have the I/O shield ready to go over your motherboards I/O when you are installing your motherboard. 2. M.2 drives do go in at an angle, they don’t just sit completely flat when you slot them, you have to angle it in and then push the opposite side of it down flush with the screw mount. 3. Also look into fan orientation. These fans point in specific directions for flow of air so you want to make sure you have them oriented correctly to optimize airflow in and out of your case.
It's so clean! Hope you build more PCs like that I would like to follow you builds when I make another. Kudos Ali!
Always love what you upload, Ali. Always looking forward to seeing you in my notifications.
The high quality on your videos never ceases to amaze me. Good Stuff!
Amazing video! I think this is the best build guide on KZread that I've ever seen.
Ali you nailed it very descriptive and simple
I love this video! Haven’t built PCs in a while. I learned that installing the CPU cables onto the motherboard first then installing the motherboard into the case was the easiest. Depending on the space of the case.
great walk through ally excellent video like always
These videos are relaxing and satisfying to watch
cleanest pc build i've seen in a long time!
Good luck and have fun with your first build. It's so rewarding to build a (working) computer.
Many thanks on a super clear build demonstration.
You always make these PCs look cool
Very nice build and an excellent video as always 👍 FYI, you can install an AIO such as the Corsair H115i Pro 280 in the front. I had the radiator placed on the outside of the front mounting bracket and the fans inside. With the MSI 3090 Suprim I had to unscrew the rad and mount it back after inserting the GPU. I don't recommend running anything above the RTX 3080; it gets toasty inside the case, since the GPU sits right up against the glass (glass got hot to the touch). All heat issues went away with the Lancool 2 Mesh.
Hey Ali , you could install the top 120mm NF-A12 in the front of the heatsink ( should clear ) and put the 140mm on the top . That being said decent build and insanely clean presentation as always , take care man .

i like your last builds , the dark themes 🖤i love dark colors specially Black & dark blue

The quality and understandability of this video is too good. I subscribed. Best wishes.
i really like this channel, really chill, no weird or cringe bits. Just solid informational and entertaining videos
Love your videos man
nice black build, I did not know some power supply companies made their cables with sleeves, until now, thanks for the content
The quality of your videos is higher than me on Friday night, incredibly well done!
This build looks so crazy!!!!
the timing of your videos could't be any better. love to see it. have to do another one with water cooling
Thanks for the guide I pretty much built this computer except I used a 12700k and a 3090 ti suprim X with an Msi z690 mpg gaming edge Wi-Fi ddr4. Dragon center was grate. I got all my drivers and bios update super easy using it.
the classic, i have never gotten bored of these.
If only one has enough money. In any case god tier recording and vid as always 💜
I have this case with a Kraken x62 mounted in the front and a Red Devil 6900xt which is roughly 330mm long, most cards will fit with an AIO front mounted. Installing the card was... Playing Tetris while riding a rollercoaster but its doable. The Suprim X 3080ti is 336mm long and might actually be one of the few that wont fit with an AIO. This build looks amazing and honestly I will probably go the no RBG route next time I build, extremely tired of cable managing full RBG systems.
Great video as always.
Watched the whole video, even that I know this steps. It's just so satisfying :) Btw, about control fan speed based on the GPU temps, I actually have this feature in my motherboard by default, Aorus X570 Pro rev 1.2, and I'm pretty shure that b550 in the same lineup have this too. So, I guess nothing is stopping manufactures from adding this.
Looks great! it would be nice to see how you prepare builds for shipping as well, that's probably the scariest part xD
Voice, music, explication everythings is nice, this video relaxed me, great content as usual.
Love seeing more different content Cant wait for your video and builds in Formd t1 v2

Great review for new builders!
I would love to see a pc build with max performance for content creation, especially for 3d with softwares like blender, c4d and houdini for example! Amazing video too!
I really like this awesome build, hope you can do a budget build or mid to low build
Literally was just about to buy a new pc, nice timing!
Very neat and clean construction
really detailed demonstration, thank you
love the video, i am just watching this for fun as I only just bought and assembled my first ever build, but I went for an H510 elite rather than flow, I just love the double tempered glass look and the airflow is still more than adequate because my system is not super power hungy, even when playing valorant at 550 fps
This is the best all black NZXT build I've seen in a while. I'm selling off all my white parts to build something like this lol. White builds were cool at first but I kinda got tired of it and realized I never truly liked how it looked in reality, just in the videos and photos. Black builds still the way to go for me!
Great build!
This a great show for the First PC Builder , 1 more thing need to notice is , fans have direction , in / out face need to check before install , mostly fan will have a NARROW mark on ! Also measure the GPU LONG with the CASE ROOM .
20:20 Oh wow I never paid attention to that. Can you make a video on fan controllers and RGB lights specifically? How to connect them hardware wise, and then how to correctly control them on the software side? This is such and underrated topic!
not even building a pc and watched the whole 40min. just so enjoyable and informative.
Thank you for the guide! Hope to see another one of these tutorials with a water cooling solution :) I know you might say there a ton of guides out there but I still believe you provide a lot of value based on the quality in which you approach your videos and the special attention to detail.
So clear and nicely explained.
There are software options to control fan speeds off GPU (or other) temp readings from MoBo headers. I personally use Argus Monitor which works fantastic and I am very happy with.
Amazing build ty brother cant wait to test this thing out! 🤩

A streamer pc build series would be sick and great promo
I just built an all white pc, strip z690 a, 12700k, and the suprim x 3070 ti, I took it apart and spray painted the shroud glossy white.
Hey Ali, loved the super quality content as always. I wanted to ask if you would consider doing a piece on an mATX case? For instance the upcoming dancase/lianli one. You always make such excellent videos on ITX/SFF stuff, and I think that mATX was ignored by many for a long time for being neither fish nor fowl: you either build a "full" (midtower) ATX system, or a super-compact ITX one. However I really think that mATX has been great the last few years: much easier to build in than (most) ITX cases, perceivably smaller than many midtowers, and much better motherboards than in the past; many great B550 boards were mATX (both great in terms of value, or flat out) for instance. If you disagree with any of the above that would also be a super interesting topic for a video (e.g. why choose ITX instead of mATX) Really hope you will consider it as I cannot think of a single KZreadr I would rather have covering this topic!
Thank you for this video helped a lot.
37:55 most MSI mobos allow you to set PCIE temp sensor for the fans. Someone already commented down here but the 120mm top fan would fit in the heatsink. nice build.

Yup! You can even set up a custom fan curve which im a huge fan of! Pretty sad if you can't do that on a 500$ asus mobo. Both my b450 aorus and my b550 gaming edge wifi let me set up custom fan curves and they both let me choose the sensor that id like.
And the Academy Award for Best Cinematography goes to Ali Sayed for this bloody masterpiece.

This is what motivated me to upgrade my prebuilt. Just bought this case, a b550m steel legend mobo, a 5600x cpu and I plan on getting a 3070
Beautiful build! Would a 140mm fan in the top also fit? It looked quite cramped up there.
I had the same build. Just and advice, yes it’s big for 14mm and it will block your cover. So what I did was I bought a 12mm nocturna and solved the problem. And my 14mm fan was extra so I put on top to draw extra hit out

I love the fact that a new builder could make a high tier build that looks amazing from this one guide video! So well explained, going over all the "Gotchas" people run into on first builds.
i picked up the exact same Z690 and 12900K about a couple weeks ago. Nice mobo with good features at a decent price point but boy that VRM heat sink is a biggins.
Aircooling with a Noctua is totally fine and even much better than many cheap watercooled builds in my opinion.
Because of those clearance issues I'm using noctua NOCTUA NH-D15S CPU cooler and as a second fan I used the NOCTUA NF-A12x25-PWM.
That motherboard is freaking sick!! Good stuff Asus
Finally you build an aircooler, would love to see also dark rock pro 4 black build
