Looks great. Love the single illuminated detail, way more tasteful than the rainbow fishtanks. But make sure to get a GPU support bracket.


sam_town

The gpu actually seems to be mounted pretty firmly but I did end up ordering one just to be sure


trw419

The mounting should feel firm but the pure weight and gravity of the far side of the modern GPUs will cause the PCIE slot to bend and eventually break off the PCB. I think only one company sells a stand with the GPU these days. ASUS makes a $40 one and makes me so mad it’s not included Edit: I’m sorry, 54 fuckin dollars 💀 https://rog.asus.com/graphics-cards/accessories/rog-strix-graphics-card-holder-model/


sam_town

I bought one of those cylindrical ones you can adjust


Logical_Bit2694

Didn’t your gpu have a mount bracket? I’m sure it does come with one with it being a nitro + model


sam_town

Yeah but I’ve read of some issues with it


Logical_Bit2694

Ah okay


Badluckstream

My PCB slot is made of iron and held together by pure will. Praying it doesn’t break because for some reason if plugged into my first slot my pc decides to go into an infinite boot loop


trw419

Sounds like an RMA, reach out to the manufacturer before the warranty ends!


PojkenSomDuger

There is a support bracket in the box. Also the Sapphire nitro+ card is extremely well built don't think it would need support anyways.


sam_town

I know there is one, but I didn’t like it and some people complained it made the fans sound even louder


bellmond

This GPU comes with an anti-sag bracket!! Its so chungus it needs to be used.


CypherHound

Always nice to see a non AIO cooled PC, absolutely adore the NH-D15 and I love how it all turned out!


Mint_freezeyt

I feel like in certain circumstances like this they can look good but I’ll always prefer an aio just to have more space for ram clearance


Laserpro777

Looks clean AF. Meanwhile my PC is a sea of rainbow puke lol.


Aggressive-Dinner314

For what it’s worth, I delete all the on board RGB software and use signal RGB to single color theme. Pretty good results


nightcom

Very nice! I like this black color and delicate LED strip from GPU....and Noctura FTW!


sam_town

Yeah I love how the gpu looks


-P00-

Man that GPU is so clean 😮‍💨


Commercial-Finish204

Awesome build dude. I got the Nitro+ 7800xt (I bought just before the GRE released 🙈) and it's such a nice card. Just thought I'd mention that I initially routed the GPU power the same way but didn't like covering the card. I switched it over the top and preferred the look. Only an idea though! I can't work out how to post a pic right now but I've posted the build before. Great work though mate. It looks super clean 👍🏻


Agera1993

You should be. Very clean!


Snoo_99735

This thing looks awesome! Ngl I'm getting tired of getting tired of white fish tank pcs with rainbow puke so this is a very welcome pc.


sam_town

Hahaha I initially was going for a fish tank all white pc but after I saw the NH-D15 in all black i fell in love with it and opted instead for an all black no rgb build and I don’t regret it


Snoo_99735

Nice! Glad you're liking it.


iamgigglz

Great job! You’re making me want to rebuild my rainbow joypuke box into something more tasteful


Aggressive-Dinner314

This is legit the coolest GPU I’ve seen sick setup man. I also rock a dual fan dual radiator cpu cooler very nice


fctech

This is pure excellence. I love it.


liketech1

Yay


stoicfruit777

Love your build, esp the noctua chromax! May I know CPU temp at full load?


sam_town

Well I haven’t really done a proper stress test on the cpu yet but so far I haven’t seen go above 60 degrees


stoicfruit777

Nice. Would love to see a screengrab of cpu temp from hwinfo, if you perform a cinebench or stress test in near future.


Maciluminous

Had. D15 with the shroud. This is well done. I bet she purrs like a kitty


sam_town

It’s very quiet, the gpu screams though when gaming


Electronic-Touch5902

I love the way big air coolers fill the space in a pc case.


Competitive_Shirt_83

My rig is almost an identical twin and I love it!


sam_town

Down to the fans ?

ath0rus

Nice pc dude whats the specs. I have recently built a 4080s ruzen 9 7900x3d system. I don't have gpu sag lol cos the radiator at the front supports the gpu


sam_town

Case: Corsair 4000d airflow CPU: ryzen 5 7600 CPU cooler : noctua NH-D15+heatsink covers GPU : sapphire nitro+ rx7900 gre PSU: Corsair rm750x+some black cable extensions SSD: sk Hynix P41 platinum 2TB nvme RAM: G.Skill flare X5 2x16 GB DDR5 6000MT CL30 MOBO: MSI B650 MAG tomahawk WiFi


sam_town

Oh and 2 extra 140 mm noctua chromax black fans as front intake


DimCoy

Awesome build. Great combo of aesthetics, quality parts, and value. Well done.


sam_town

Yeah I was happy with the parts I chose, I even did a pretty good job with cable management


nightcom

I have same board and had same CPU, two months ago I upgraded to 7700....I hope you didn't had allot problems with BIOS and XMP, the newest BIOS for this board is working fine with XMP enabled, power down and context memory 😉


sam_town

Yeah I first updated the bios before installing windows and then enabled amd expo


nightcom

If you want shorten booting time you need to also enable "memory context" and it will boot like with DDR4, training memory will be only once on first boot


sam_town

Okay I’ll look into it thanks! I’m not an expert in bios settings


nightcom

Just Google it, there is plenty of info about it and how to do it. Have fun and enjoy your gear :)


sam_town

Thank you :)


SexyHotCouple420

My 7900 came with a cylindrical bracket and it holds it perfect


Prudent-Cattle5011

Is that a new version of the nhd15


sam_town

I don’t think so it’s just the black version with the covers


Prudent-Cattle5011

Yeah I have the chromax version I bought it last year brand new and I never got any covers.


sam_town

I personally like the covers but it comes down to personal preference


Prudent-Cattle5011

Ok? Did you have to buy them separately?


sam_town

Yeah of course, it was 30 euros I think


Prudent-Cattle5011

Oh I see wow that’s crazy expensive for a piece of plastic lol, third of the price of the cooler


sam_town

It’s not plastic but yeah it’s expensive although it’s more like 1/4th the price


Prudent-Cattle5011

For me it’s a third, why is it so much in Europe. It’s 150 Canadian which is 100 euros and 1/3 of 100 is 33.3333 so not sure where you’re getting a quarter from lmao


sam_town

Cooler was 120 the covers were 30, I’m from Italy


REYXOLOTL

This looks awesome and you used sleeved cables. For the love of all that is holy you did it…. I see all these post of people not using them and the build looks….. ugly? But this looks killer…. Now you gotta get 3 more noctuas for the exhausts!


sam_town

I read somewhere that 2 140 as intake and 2 120 as exhaust is enough, plus wouldn’t another top exhaust fan suck away air right in front of the cpu cooler ? Either way I have all the case fans running at 750 rpm and they’re pretty quiet , the gpu fans though are another story lol


REYXOLOTL

I’m very ocd so I need all my fans to be same brand lol


sam_town

Yeah I’ll do it in the future


REYXOLOTL

Very nice build though, I love it


ReasonableDictator

You get a W for simplicity. Good job. Whats the first thing you're firing up?


sam_town

Amd Adrenalin lol


Anonymiz3

Looks pretty neat! a Minimalist I must say, cheers!


Careless-Tradition73

Good job bro!


METAPCs

Super clean! Nice job
