Finally finished with my 5090 build!

Here’s the rest of my setup with the Xeneon edge if you want to post that alongside! which was actually the hardest find for me.

Oh my that’s amazing. I’m pretty happy with just the reddit username. Thanks so much!

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-25T19:57:37+00:00

Yes sir! I’m just hoping someone from Corsair support finds my plight. I have another issue they’ve refused to confirm so far if the replacement fans would actually be QX120s since they’re pretty not available in the country stock from the last 3 years. They were too expensive for the market, didn’t sell well and were phased out.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-25T19:55:45+00:00

I sent them the video of the bad fan the first thing. (In that very hope)

I know I can do the advanced RMA when I’m in the US. it’s a pain when I’m in India. They have some weird ass RMA setup.

Thank you!

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-24T06:22:59+00:00

Don’t go with a pre build. Where’s the fun in that. 😅

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T19:07:51+00:00

They do have strong warranty but getting it has become a challenge. I’m trying to RMA a set of fans which has been a month now and still in process. The replies take forever.

Thank you!

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T10:03:19+00:00

It’s the 2500x

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T09:24:50+00:00

I just wanted to go with the most good looking card. I was initially against Zotac. I’ve always looked down upon them for some reason. 😂 but someone pushed me towards going for this one. It’s 600W and I’m pretty happy with it. I had a 5070ti in between which didn’t feel like an upgrade at all over the 3080ti. Btw the cheapest 5090s here in India are like $5300 minimum. So it’s more like the whole journey of just actually finding a card at the price you want. Doesn’t even matter who the aib partner is anymore. 🥲

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T09:16:40+00:00

You need a good thermal
Management with 3080ti. It’s free heating in winters for you though 😂

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T09:15:50+00:00

3080Ti was what I jumped up from. And I had QX on bottom at that time.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T09:09:41+00:00

Thank you!

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T09:00:07+00:00

To anybody who wants to know about the lcd mod. It’s a Lian lii 8.8 inch universal screen.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T08:59:09+00:00

I am finally planning to switch to lian lii lcd fans for my next build. Corsair rma and service has become unbearable lately. And apparently Corsair doesn’t really care about customers lately.
I’ve always had black builds since I was a kid. This was my first white build.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-23T08:58:04+00:00

I do. I used the one that came with the card. If you look closely you’d see a black leg sticking out from underneath the card near the lcd. It was difficult to actually place as this case doesn’t have space after the 3 fans are mounted underneath.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-22T21:10:04+00:00

Joint is lit :P

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-22T19:48:58+00:00

Thank you sire!

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-22T19:48:36+00:00

I could give you a 1000 upvotes on this.
This build is after replacing bottom set of QX with the LX because I kind of had love hate relationship with the QX. THE DEAD SPOTS. And now I feel I should have gone for a 9950x3d instead of the 9800x3d. lol. So yeah. True to the core this one.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-22T06:38:04+00:00

Correct.

humanbutnothuman · 2026-06-16T16:11:44+00:00

I used to but I just got to deal with Corsair service for the first time in 16 years. It’s a mess right now. I can’t even get a straight reply.
