My First Watercooled PC Build ever! Intel Core I9 14900k | 128GB RAM | RTX 4090

#lianli #pcbuild #msi #asus #rtx4090 #ekwb #corsair #nvidia #watercooled It feels like a dream come true of performance, precision, design and a bit of luxury. Timecodes, though I don’t recommend skipping for visual narrative reasons!

Timeless in design and with very high flexibility in the composition of components. Spacious for multiple and larger components. With space for 3 radiators on the bottom, top and side area it is perfect for custom water cooled PC build. The case also allows the installation of large distroplates and EATX motherboards. The possibilities and cooling solutions in this case are truly limitless. Either as classic air cooling or, as here, water cooling with 3 radiators. This project of pc building focuses on an application in the area of ​​video editing. That’s why I decided on the interaction of the Intel Core I9 14900k, the RTX 4090, 128GB of Corsair Dominator RAM, the 7tb of SSD Storage from Samsung with their 990 Pro’s and the MSI MEG Z790 ACE to match the golden aesthetic. To match these Golden Parts I have chosen to go with some really good looking Carbon Tubes, to match the Golden and Black Aesthetic. Since air cooling wouldn’t be that effective in this big case, I decided on a water cooled system with the parts from EKWB in order to get the best performance. The requirement for a quiet system was also important. In order to quickly see the most important technical values ​​ in the case, I decided on the EK Quantum reflection 2 distro plate for the O11 Dynamic XL, with an integrated display. I also didn’t want to use an output from the GPU, so I integrated a Raspberry PI, which transfers the data directly from the board to the screen in the distroplate. I also installed the Lian Li UNI Fans SL-INF because of the stunning performance, the low noise level and the gorgeous looks. In combination with their reversed fans there is nothing to complain about. They make the cable management way easier with their daisy chain technology. MSI has made a really good job with their Power Supplies and Mainboards. The MSI MEG Ai1300P is one the smallest PSU’s that is Platinum certified and can even deliver up to 1300 Watts. It also has included cables for the new 12VHPWR Connector. The MSI MEG Z790 Ace also has great compatibility with most RAM modules and can hold up to 4 NvME M.2 SSD’s without interfering with the GPU. This and the great aesthetics let us choose these components. Final conclusion following build hardware list: Main parts included in the build: Case - Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL GPU - Asus Tuf RTX 4090 CPU - Intel Core I9 14900k Motherboard - MSI MEG Z790 ACE RAM - 128GB Corsair Dominator NVME M.2 - 1x 1tb, 3x 2tb Samsung 990Pro Distroplate - EK-Quantum Reflection² PC-O11D XL Screen Edition CPU Cooler - EK-Quantum Velocity² D-RGB - 1700 Gold GPU Cooler - EK-Quantum Vector² Strix/TUF RTX 4090 D-RGB Radiators out - EK-Quantum Surface P360M Fan’s out - Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF 120mm Radiator in - EK-Quantum Surface X360M Fan’s in - Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF Reversed 120mm PSU - MSI MEG Ai1300P PSU Cables extensions - Custom Cable Mod Cables Fittings - EK Golden Fittins Thermal paste - ThermalGrizzly Kryonaut Extreme Total build cost - $8400 This PC build was enthusiastically received by the customer. Its smooth running and simultaneous performance enabled an increase in its productivity, while at the same time improving the working environment in terms of noise pollution. I believe everything that is possible has been packed into the LianLi O 11 Dynamic XL case in order to achieve the best result for the customer in terms of cooling and performance. By the way: To further optimize the heat exchange, you need the right conductive paste. I used the ThermalGrizzly Kryonaut Extreme. I’d also like to add that it was an amazing experience to build with the parts of EK Water Blocks. They have made the process extremely understandable and easy to follow. Which was great for as an newbie to water cooling Pc’s. What’s your thoughts on this project? Love it?
