gemlink Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Greetings fellow RGBz Addicts :D: Still waiting on a few parts, but for now I have enough to begin. Spec list so far is. Corsair Obsidian 1000dAsus ROG Strix Z370-F GamingIntel i7 8700kCorsair H115i PlatinumCorsair MP500 M.2 (240gb for system)Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32gbCorsair Commander Pro (making 2 with the included 1000D edition Commander Pro)Corsair LL140mm Fans x 3Corsair LL120mm Fans x 10Corsair RM1000iCorsair PSU Premium Braided Cable Kit in BlackEVGA GTX 1080 SC For now this build will be cooled using the Corsair H115i Platinum, up in the top of the case. My plan is to get the main system up and running and looking good, and then add in the ITX system. Same again, get it up and running and looking good (undecided on second system specs yet). Until the 2nd system is gathered all together, I will vertical mount the main systems GPU, so you guys get to see how it all fits together, along with any pitfalls it may create. Once the second system is fitted I will then be heading towards a full Custom loop on both systems. It will be my first Custom loop, so you guys that are as wary as I am, of those first steps......... Please follow the adventure :). Here is my concept install Diagram to give you all an idea of my plan http://i.imgur.com/JCX2B0gl.png http://i.imgur.com/6jWk57yl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/lVZNQall.jpg My next post in this thread will be the case itself, what it contains, and what it is supplied with. Anyone with an interest in the case and needs information, please do ask. I will try my hardest to get photos up with explanations for any queries that may arise. Once the case details have been sorted, I will get the Motherboard installed and get the OS on.. oce done I will begin the Front Fan installation, (8xLL120mm) along with the cable arrangement from fans to rear Cable Management Area, and whats needed to travel such a distance.. Extensions for both Fan Power and Fan RGB are going to be needed. 16x cables all in.. Should be fun! :D: All images can be found in full Resolution here https://imgur.com/a/8WRankh I you need help with Corsair RGB Ecosystem Go read this Corsair RGB Hardware Ecosystem FAQ Thead Covers most things You need to know on how the system works. Don't Skim read it.. take Your time.. there is a lot to take in. Also watch the Corsair How videos for iCUE Setup and Operation Discord Channel for Corsair Case Owners https://discord.gg/b6x8HpM I've done a few builds and by no means am an expert. I'm in the middle of a build with the 1000D and just realized that the front panel I/O cables have USBs, Power Button, Reset switch, the 3-pin RGB but no pled leads. Is that right? They have been in every other build I've done. Thanks for any feedback on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted March 15, 2019 Author Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) hey bud.. indeed there is no power LED on the front IO bud.. i figure they figure its not needed due to the IO having RGB..... feel free to jump on my discord server buddy.. fair few 1000D owners amongst us :) https://discord.gg/b6x8HpM Edited March 15, 2019 by Zotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that might be the case, but wanted to verify that before finishing the build. It would suck to have to undo everything because of a defective case.

ronantoon Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Hey Zotty, thanks for the reply. Do you think the US will have stock anytime soon or should i try to purchase it from the UK. or should I just buy a h115i and ditch the H150. I have the intel i9 9900x do you think the h115 is enough coolng for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 they come in and out of stock regular bud so just a matter of regular checks. the H115i is prob a bit better than the H150i.. but its only small bud.. they are both Great coolers.

Zotty Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Have rewired mine in a slightly different Config now http://i.imgur.com/yaPuQv7l.png What i have found is.. Re' the Pass through... much better to have a RGB Fan LED hub or no more than 4 strips on the Pass through due to power requirements of the chassis lighting's LEDS. the RGB Fan LED Hub is sata powered and as such places no drain on the devices before it (hope that made sense) when spec'd with 6 strips on the passthrough i found that the last 2 strips wouldnt be as bright as the rest when set to bright white and yellow/orange type colors..

Toddone Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 You have 2 commander pros, power supply and a usb link for your cooler. How do you connect 4 usb 9pin inputs to a board with only 2 9 pin headers on your motherboard? Please explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Hi Buddy.. The Commander Pro has 2 x 9pin USB headers. so, one Commander Pro is plugged into a motherboard header,, 2nd Commander Pro and cooler plugged into into 1st Commander Pro and PSU plugged into 2nd Commander Pro.... hope that makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katriyatsia Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) HAH cant help my self--I just bought a third!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ever notice how a build grows on you and gets bigger and bigger, and then eventually say 3-4 years you get disgusted throw it all out and go with the new chipset????? you said you sdidnt mind doing diagrams---I;m going to take you up on that--how would you draw up 18 fans ( 8 front and top, two at the back, all LL and 1Vidmate iTunes Notepad++20mm) with two commander pros and al the LED hubs and node pros as far as the eye can see--add in 8 30mm light strips.
