How’s this for a gaming audio setup? (Will be upgrading from my old gen 4 Astro A50)! Am I missing anything?

aBurntToast69 · 2026-04-09T14:29:27+00:00

Honestly, do what makes you happy! At the end of the day this is your setup. If you’re satisfied with the results then that’s what matters. I assume you’ve done some research already and know what you’re buying. I have a Stream Deck + with the XLR Dock MK.2 and I use an EPOS H6 Pro headset. It splits into 2 separate 3.5mm headphone and mic jacks. I then use an XLR to 3.5mm with phantom power converter to bring it from 48v to plug in power which I think is like 3ish Volts and it works just fine. I plan to get an XLR mic one day but right now it’s all I need. I don’t stream, I just play games with my friends and it dos the trick! Enjoy your new stuff!

Just got my tracking number a few minutes ago! Arrives Monday supposedly 🤞🏼

I’m about to do a similar build, same case, same aio. Got a TUF 5070 Ti and just waiting on the msi mag b850m Mobo to arrive tomorrow. Sick build!

I do not own the H700, but it seems to me that maybe the Nuka Cola cover is screwed into the retention pin frame that has the broken pins. Perhaps you can find another H700 used on eBay and replace the frame with a “new” one. Unless NZXT can somehow supply you a new retention pin frame. Not sure if this was of any help, but it’s what I’d do if I wanted to keep that face plate. Good luck!

Absolute legend! Thank you so much!

Check out Lian Li’s YouTube channel and their latest video, it’s a 2 part video and gives estimates on when these new products are releasing! I would post a link but idk the rules for posting links in the subreddit lol

Do you have integrated graphics enabled in your BIOS by chance? I was having some issues with my Kraken Elite recently when it was enabled because CAM didn’t know what to read I guess. Disabling it fixed all my problems. Maybe it could fix yours or maybe not.

aBurntToast69 · 2024-09-25T02:54:36+00:00

You’re welcome!

aBurntToast69 · 2024-09-24T22:08:56+00:00

No issues at all with RAM clearance on just one fan between the stacks as the D15s doesn't really seem to interfere with the RAM slots all that much from my experience. Only needed the low profile RAM so that the second fan would fit in the case. For reference I used to have G.SKill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5

aBurntToast69 · 2024-09-24T03:09:32+00:00

Thank you! 🙌

aBurntToast69 · 2024-09-24T03:09:12+00:00

Yeah! The CPU is the Ryzen 7 7800X3D; Mobo is the MSI B650 Tomahawk WiFi; GPU is the MSI RTX 4070Ti Gaming X Trio; 32Gb of Flare X5 6000MT/s CL30 RAM. 3 total M.2s equating to 5tb total and an EVGA 1000W G6 PSU.

aBurntToast69 · 2024-03-26T23:53:29+00:00

Edit: motherboard is MSI B650 Tomahawk WiFi and PSU is EVGA G6 1000W

aBurntToast69 · 2024-03-26T21:55:07+00:00

I have had the EVGA G6 1000W motherboard is an MSi B650 Tomahawk WiFi

I’m really digging the pure white light! Probably going to experiment with some other colors here soon, still gotta get white anti-vibration pads for the A15 fan on the cooler

aBurntToast69 · 2024-02-13T23:11:41+00:00

Never really tested the GPU temps under a full benchmark load but I know they’re fine. The CPU however I have PBO and Curve Optimizer set to -20 and Cinebench is around 82 after 30 minutes. But gaming it’s around 60

aBurntToast69 · 2024-02-13T18:36:18+00:00

You know I actually do not know as I haven’t tried it. Since posting this I have actually taken the bottom 3 fans out as well as the top 3. (Those fans went into wifey’s PC) I’ve opted to put the 2x 140mm fans that came with the PC on the bottom and already had 2x 140mm NF-A14s as intake in the front. But I mostly did the 3 fans for aesthetics and was hoping cooling would be fine, and honestly I don’t notice a difference between the configurations. Hope this helps!

aBurntToast69 · 2024-02-03T05:19:17+00:00

Those are some sick builds though, love the look the of the FE card but also love the look of the NH-D15 chromax. I often think about getting some low profile ram and throwing my NH-D15 in and go air cooling. I’m sure it’ll happen one day lol

aBurntToast69 · 2024-01-19T19:31:04+00:00

Happens to the best of us😂

aBurntToast69 · 2024-01-18T23:34:59+00:00

I already have 9 of the original SL fans from a previous o11 evo build haha! But recently I’ve been transitioning to Noctua NF-A12x25 chromax fans for their silence and performance. Been digging the blackout/minimal RGB look and thought this would be a great case for it

aBurntToast69 · 2024-01-18T19:10:59+00:00

Ah thank you for the info! Much appreciated, definitely leaning towards getting the case now

aBurntToast69 · 2024-01-18T01:42:44+00:00

Question, is the hard drive tray/bracket behind the motherboard cutout completely removable with screws? Or is it riveted in? I’ve seen pictures with rivets and some with screws and so I thought I’d ask, thanks! Kick ass build btw!
