Thanks so much for the kind words! We’re honored to be the system you’re recording on!
I do get distracted staring at it sometimes, so maybe it isn't a *perfect* solution 😅
buying a new pc from flacon 😊 any discount codes? Anything off 5.000$ will help lol 😝
@@darsin78605 bucks? Haha
they are very expensive but they are really good that is the point
@@braethornwhere would be the best place I buy a custom made pc or should I just buy all my own parts
Great video as always! That slipstream went quick, unfortunately before todays video! We did however just add a beautiful 7900xtx system as well as a gorgeous fractal north system! We heard your comments on signature systems and we plan on adding AMD GPU systems soon! Thanks as always for covering us small boutique builders as well as providing fantastic coverage in our space! LGN!! 🎉

I have an Aventum X from digital storm, and I love it. Granted, I spent a ridiculous amount of money on it to make it overkill. I have both a custom watercooled GPU 4090 with a I9 13900ks. The RAM is DDR5 64gb 6000mhz, ROG maximus Z790 extreme, 1500 watt power supply, 3 samsung 980 pro 2TB each
Please help me out. Is the Nividia 12gb card worth the extra 500? Or is the 8gb ok for gaming. I don’t know enough about this.
8 gb is good but for futureproof is recommended at least 12+ @@GregoryChew0921
@@GregoryChew0921 Games are using more VRAM these days. 8GB is still fine, but you should lower quality from ultra to high or medium while tweaking other settings.
@@1meme985 thank you. I did end up buying a gaming computer. I love it more than my own children.
@@1meme985 I was gonna go for 16 but the guy at the store said I only need that if I’m gonna stream stuff. So did end up with 12 but that’s cool
personally i ordered a build redux system even the good system is really good, ik that the 4060 isnt seen as a good card but i enjoy my computer and able to play at high frames on any game i've been playing
Ordered my first gaming PC from them in 2009. Actually found my 15 year old review on their forum yesterday. I remember they kept me updated with the order and actual build all the way to shipping it in a nice wooden crate from California to Arizona.
Their forums were very active, but they switched to Discord.
Another good video, Brae! As I've said before, I'm not in the market for a prebuilt, but I still enjoy watching your videos. I'm disabled, so there is always a chance my body will just refuse to let me upgrade my own PC, and I'll have to just go with an SI if something were to happen to my existing system, and I feel like I have some good information on where to start by watching your videos.
You're the best content creator in this platform when it comes to Pre-Built Gaming PCs, period. I immediately subscribed and I just want to thank you for the amazing content, your complete honesty and transparency in regard to these products, and overall being a guardian angel for those of us who are interested in Pre-Built Gaming PCs. Many thanks!
What is the name of your white split keyboard Braethorn?
Bought my first Digital Storm a year-ish ago, the cheapest Lynx they had (i3-12100f, rtx 3050) and so far it's been great. I'm mainly a console gamer so I mainly run older games on it which run great. Was tired of proprietary SI's being pieces of junk and a friend recommended DS. Dunno how their mid-range ones are but for web browsing and older games the cpu/gpu combo they put together works flawless.
I think I may try out a Stince Build or possibly Build Redux. thanks dor another great video
I just got my second Digital Storm and I like them. (I know, to each their own.)
Are they worth it?
@@brandonneifert3199 that is incredibly subjective. The best answer that I can provide is that I had them build a pretty high end computer for me after having a really good first experience.

I have a 1.8K system, and 3TB and looking into adding 1-2 more TB because I know I'm going to be doing stuff like Sims along with tons of other games and I don't want to worry about space (1TB boot drive and a separ 2TB)
That's a shame to have 1TB on a $3.3K system. Love your honesty and realness in all your videos 💖
the skytech prism 3 *seemed* like it would be a perfect system for me but after Brae freaked out about the build, Im not sure what to do 😅
That 7800xt/7800x3d build wasn't bad, in the past i hated Si's for just how overpriced they were and build quality being meh at best but things have gotten better and at least some are moving in the right direction.
StinceBuilt is great. I've known him for years.
The issue with the AIO in the prism 3 is exactly why when I'm looking at prebuilts I avoid any system with AIOs like the plague. Unless I see pictures with the radiator top mounted or oriented correctly. Another issue I have with AIOs is they are often placed in systems that don't need them. In unless you are putting at top of line CPU or you are build in a glass oven like the 011 (honestly I would do custom loop for an o11 but that's another rant) you don't need an AIO. There are plenty of great high-flow cases and tower coolers out there. If AlexanderPCs can do an air-cooled build with an i9 and a 4090. Then there is no excuse for using an AIO on something like i5. Unless you are building in a poorly designed case or a glass oven. End of story.
agreed 1tb is smol, should be 4tb as theyre all starting around 190$-220$, I get its probably an inventory thing, yes they purchased 1000x1tb m.2 at X price, so they have to use them lol :)
Depending on the board, they can probably add in an additional 1tb at least. Seems like most of the boards he mentioned have at least 2 slots. Problem solved! (they probably disagree lol)
Bro I had an ad for digital storm before this
I'm so so glad I found you. I currently using an Alienware Aurora 8 (which is old) but I've been a DELL person for nearly 10 yrs, and now I want something different, new & exciting - it's like buying a car. So I'm looking at the Build Redux and compared it with Aurora 16, and I think I will get a better machine with Redux. I've sub/like.
I have parts picked out already all the stuff I need and all that but i don’t know if the best for gaming and like high fps and stuff like that would you some how be able to help
If you get a 4060 plus and an I9 12900K with good other components then put performance mode on in the game and you will get high FPS like 120-500
12:00 haha, me here with my $4k~ pc with a 1tb O.S Drive thinking its not bad....i keep it clean and empty so i think im doin alright lol
It's time for a new rig and the video helped a lot.
Hey just wanted to say great video but could you turn your audio a little higher? I'm maxed out on everything and i can still barely hear you. Thanks!
Hey, all of our videos are set in premier to -12 db so it might be something on your end cause it's seemingly fine on my end.
Let me check out DigitalStorm for a my 1st desktop PC (for gaming) in 21 years...smash cut to Braethorn laughing his ass off at the first images. Ok check. Hard No. Got it. lol.
Flacon Northwest is a great company. I've never heard anything bad about them
Liking that abroad tune
Hey braethorn I know how you said you don’t want to tell people what to buy but I was going to ask if you could help point me in a direction or ideas on what I’d like to try and get.
I had my eyes on the Corsair vengeance 7400 with the 4090 but i also want liquid cooled complete like to the gpu with the different colors like hardline I guess if that’s what it’s called I don’t have the most money but I do want very good performance more than what I’d need.
I don’t know much about building and most things so have to be a prebuilt if possible. I looked at digital storm and wanted to see how they were which brought me here to you very good video and stream. I like the info and the way you defend and support us the consumers like I’ll pay for the good service and product as long as it holds up and is worth the buck I’d gladly appreciate it if you can once again thank you
Ever doing a video on microcenter Prebuilts?
isnt the fragbox a shuttle old case? been in this hobby for more than 20 years , ive seen that "case"
I love the fact you give us money advise. Jk! Love the channel.
Woot!!
Let’s go nerds!!
Why does everyone hate Digital Storm? No reason for it.
What do think of Origin Pc's. I had to send mine back for a refund after they supposedly fixed it once. I shipped it to Miami and came back worse. I've been building PC's for 30 years and thought I'd buy a SI. Plus the Origin cost over 5,000$USD. Still waiting for my refund. You convinced me on getting a Falcon Northwest!!!!!!!
So which prebuilt company is the best out of all of the ones out there then?
I've had 3 from digital storm and by far the best quality and even have life time support it's solid.
The price is super high on the 4379 dollar pc is 90% the cooling lol
LGN!!!!!🎉😊
lol! I love it! No 1tb pcie 3.0 ssd with falcon northwest..🤣🤣🤣
Ya I was surprised after raging on the 1TB ssd's he completely missed that Falcon systems that were on the screen had 2TB NVMe drives
Pretty sure I mentioned it specifically, but it might have been edited out 🤷♂️
@@braethorn oh no… I’m agreeing with you! PC builds of that caliber do not start with 1tb SSDs!!
So what do you think of the RTX 4060? I dont want to replace my PSU to get a card and the only ones i can get have to use less than 130w. I am currently using an rx 5500 4gb with a r5 5600g. i figured i have a few more years of gaming left in this unit. Just trying to extend the life a little before i replace completely.....hopfully one more generation of cards. Thank you for your videos I learn a lot and you have gained my family's trust when it comes to computers. 👻
I have a 4060. I only run 1080p but i run all my games max settings (starfield,cyberpunk,forza 5,bg3) and get great fps on all of them. Haven't tried running 1440 don't have the monitor for it. I have a build redux pc w a i7 12th gen.
@@kudo3035 what fps do you get with dlss and rast. for starfield? thank you for the response. Looking to get either a 4060 or a 4060 ti.
I'll have to get on later and check for you. But tbh, if I could go back I'd get the ti 16gb. The increased vram u will go longer b4 having to upgrade.
@@kudo3035 ty
now idk which to choose. Alexander pc or falcon northwest. OPINIONS????
We have one... but consider the source. 😁
Can you do a pre built tier list
Nope. An SI tier list would be different based on the individual and their needs/priorities.
Love my build redux
Did skytech stop using this aio because I don’t want it.
it is intel better than AMD?
It just depends on you and what you're gonna use it for. If it's just for gaming go with AMD, if it's for gaming and streaming and other productivity go with Intel
@@LuisAngel0214 wow I thought amd was also good for streaming.
@hamiltonazon3055 it is that dude dont no what he's talking about amd is best for streaming and gaming cause they dont keep adding cores to the same shit
meanwhile you accept a sponsor like redux who notably is as bad with digital storm with sending their doa cpu's lol which has been well documented
Build Redux has never sponsored any of my content. I also roasted them over the airflow design of their new case when I unboxed it. Boy, you really got me there lol
(dbzwarriorfc here) lol Awesome vid as always yayayaya
both pc's are junk 3500$ for a 14600k and pny 4060 damn.
Bro is hating on Digital Storm.
Corporate shill how much did you get paid for this ad? "spend 8K you'll be happy." Yeah let me get right on that.
