the fans connecting together and using 1 cable shoudl be the new standard. it's such a game changer. 5 years ago we all had birds nests behind our PC now it's easy to make it clean.
no, cause the connections from each brand are proprietary.
@@DaKrawnik
Which is why it should become standardized?
Deepcool RF120 fans have daisy-chained RGB connectors, but we absolutely need a daisy-chained PWM connection.
@@DaKrawnik Right. but that connection method should still be the new standard. but they should also be one connector across the board
@@NN-sp9tu and that's exactly why it won't become a standard... proprietary connections are forcing people to buy proprietary hardware, companies love it, I fuckin hate it...
I really like this. Not so much because of the barely visible cables, but because it's finally easier to get to the connections on the mainboard.
Exactly! I bet the 24-pin connector is still hard as hell to pull out, but it would definitely help if I didn't have to worry about losing grip and then accidentally hitting something in the process
@@ZevolishI’m also scared of losing grip and accidentally knocking off a compacitor
It makes so much more sense to make those connections in the back instead of wiggling my hands around under coolers and shit trying to get it done in the front after installing it
i cant tell you how many times i had to take out my gpu when i was connecting sata cables to the MB...so i totally agree, this is the way forward
As long as you pick the right PC case for that.
This seems SO much more practical.
I built my first computer a month ago and the FIRST thing I thought is why are we connecting cables from the back to the motherboard at the front, then hiding the cables at the back again....This makes way more sense and suprising this isnt the way its always been done.
just don't hide the cables ;-) you save lot's of time and if you ever need to do maintenance it will be easier ;-)
The reason that cables have been from the front is that glass PC cases are "new". 8 years ago you didn't care how the cables looked, because your case was a closed metal box, so that's where the cables went.
This is because motherboards have standards, and those standards aren't often changed for a trivial trend in case design. If you were to make a motherboard with a completely different layout, it would instantly become incompatible with a lot of hardware and case setups.
If everything starts to transition to this model, then it'd be a good thing, but don't underestimate why the friction exists in the first place. We're lucky we can buy any case we want, with any motherboard we want, and everything typically just works. Companies usually fight for proprietary systems.
@@SammysapphiraThe only extra thing the mobo requires is holes in the case. It's not any more proprietary otherwise. You can make them yourself. But very easy for a company to add to an existing case.
@@thefrub12 years ago I had my first windowed case. The trend is much older than 8 years.
They started appearing in the late 90s and really started catching on after 2000.. So they've been mainstream at least 20 years now. I was an adult when opaque beige boxes were the norm, so I've been around to see the entire PC evolution.
dude im genuinely more amazed about the effect your new place has on your audio it has the perfect amount of reverb to make it sound almost etherial, really hyped to see how you will utilise that space
2:12 That would be the biggest benefit from me. I dont care how my machine looks up front, a nice cable routing can also look good. But being able to open the " service area" in the back to get to all connections is so practical and nice :)
fr
It's also great from a reliability perspective, given the lack of cables that could potentially move and make contact with a fan when computer is moved or transported!
omg....people just listen...all things should be available from ONE panel! having all those wires behind the the right panel is just impractical for maintenance.
and before you ask...no I don't hide the cables in my PC builds, "cable management" only makes maintenance more difficult.
@@vasopelagreed, after 5 or 6 times "cable management" I just gave up. So much time wasted for the cables to do just for changing/adding stuff to my case
A couple people have said it already but I feel like the main advantage is that this is way more practical. I hate snaking cables through holes in the case and bending them at extreme angles to get them to connect. This is way easier.
Exactly.
The choice of using an AIO with tubes just hanging inside on a 0-cable build though...
OCD triggering!
Especially because case manufacturers keep getting the placement and sizing of the pass through holes wrong, so that it is virtually impossible to even pass a cable through them... like what the hell are they doing not testing it?!
Right form to match the function.
Brilliant 😁 Feels like such a simple yet genius idea, can't wait to see more of it in future components!
Been waiting for this for 20 Years !! FINALY !! Ports & cable connectors on the back side !!
so surprised the pc vids were so close to one another. Nice that it is, hope to see more content also relating to the budget side of things.
I mean 2k is more budget than 5k so everything is relative
get your money up bro. this channel is for people with deep pockets
Or tax return money thanks Big government
Also I should say regarding my “2k is more budget” I own a base model steam deck as my computer so I’m not like being entitled
@@everettjames6707 being entitled to low power handhelds being viable I mean sure
Super clean, this is the way forward
no the way forward is no more gpu, everything can be handled by the cpu alone so you can get even smaler and cleaner builds
@@FunkyBuddha81CAP
Think we are a long way from that BUT I hope AMD can make some strides into that. If they can get something close to a 3080 or 3090 performance in their APUs we are good. @FunkyBuddha81
Dude, the Case and Hardware is all cool, but man, your lighting and cam shots are just amazing. Very nice and tastefull. Keep up the good work!
I REALLY like this! The aesthetic aspect is cool, but as a big guy with thick hands/fingers, holy cow this will make those fan pins so much easier to access! I've put off making changes in my PC just because I didn't want to deal with unplugging and replugging those tiny little cables/pins! I'll definitely be looking for one like this for my next build! And I appreciate the Corsair water cooler with the cables running through the tubes, I have an earlier version of that and it looks awesome except for the wires. My next build will have a custom water cooler system, but that is a no-brainer for these aesthetic builds!
Most clean pc build ever
just don't look on other side
@@havocking9224 who is going to? nobody is going to go round to their mates and say, take the other panel off I want to stare at your cables
@@KarlGaff stop taking youtube comments seriously, it is good for health 👍🏻😃
Case with solid side panel is even cleaner...
It's not the most clean.. but definitely the CLEANEST
choosing to use a more compatible AIO instead, when MSI sent a complementary AIO cooler for the build is hands down BASED af lmao
MSI gonna be big mad
LMAO
It's pretty strange, because MSI released/announced their own version of Fans snapping together this year without the need for cables. So for them to send him that AIO is on them lol.
@@dansan382It's not a paid ad, 468k views is still a win for the cost of sending over a case and motherboard. You can get 5 figures for that.
i always feel this space minimal vibe with ur videos .. just a healthy feel idk how to say it thats the best i got
massive build, really looks amazing!
About time something like this exists. I can say this actually looks futuristic. GPU vendors would do quite well with moving the power cable connector to the back. They've learned red and black isn't cool anymore, airflow IS important, tempered glass, RGB, and now (hopefully) clean aesthetics. For those of who you care, you're about to enjoy what's coming down the pipe. Race to make the cleanest PC components inc.
Rog has not learned that red and black is tacky yet 😂
This is fantastic. This is how PC cases and builds should be done going forward.
Totally agree. This is a great innovation and it can't catch on soon enough.
All of my PC builds in the last year have been minimal PC wires but not zero wires yet. But I love this look and its super clean. Glad to see these components are available. Thanks Optimum.
I would totally buy something like this. Love the clean minimalist look
I really hope this will be a standard in the future.
I wish they kept the 24 pin in the normal position so I can use my strimmer cables
@@nicholaswicks3077You dont need strimmer cables if you cant see them
@@nicholaswicks3077 strimmer cables imo are so ugly the 3-4 cm thats not lighted up makes it look so stupid same goes for the pcie one it looks stupid
@@nicholaswicks3077 After using strimers, I prefer not to.
I'm excited to see you hitting a million subs soon! You deserve it! Your videos and builds are amazing!
Love your content, very professional and briliantly filmed and edited.
Would love to see an ITX tower akin to the H1 with this style. Sandwich style makes it a bit more of a pain, but possibly you could have a "middle" compartment in which all the cabling goes. Perhaps the case would be in two pieces with a hinge to open it up for easier access. Just spitballing, but it would be nice to see
Some of the Asus BTF motherboards are apparently going to feature a high power delivery PCIe slot that can deliver up to 600W of power to tackle the GPU cabling issue. Seems like a very smart approach that removes the need for specific GPU models with rear-facing connectors. If that works out well I fully expect it to become the standards for other BTF motherboards like this in the future.
They should just amend the PCI-E spec to add a dedicated slot connector past the x16 length for direct power delivery from fixed plugin ports mounted to the back, front, or edges of the motherboard. Removable hot swap PSU modules can deliver 1200w-3000w of +12v on a 2-3" wide PCB connector, so there is zero concern with power density or having to reinvent the wheel. They just need to pick a standard and go with it, not rocket science.
@@msytdc1577 You mean you want PCIe 32x slots? They already exist but are not used outside of some niche server interconnect stuff because they are twice the length of a PCIe 16x slot and nowadays and mostly unnecessary thanks to fast interconnect technologies like OCulink and SFP.
Thats a clean build for sure, beautiful work of art!
That's so cool. I hope this will be available in my country soon.
When you see it, you suddenly wonder why this wasn't always the case. It's better in all ways.
The "case" haha
The cover blocking the cable shows "Force RTX" which has a good ring to it.
Nvidia Marketing team be like
that cover is way too big
Could just print a skinnier one. Force RTX is still good. Lol.
Opportunity for another LCD info/graphics screen? 🙂
Yeah Force RTX to be cheap again
Been following you for awhile. Really appreciate your approach to builds. Where if anywhere can someone either have you do a build for them directly, or order from a source where they use your builds as a template and recreate them for the public? This is the exact aesthetic I have been waiting for. Add to that some version of "reasonably quiet" (with the correct fan curves etc) and some very high end hardware (4090+ etc) and this may be the perfect pc.
The GPU support/cable guard would be a great place to mount a small LCD showing a GIF or PC statistics, it would make it part of the case and the wires could be routed down with the GPU power
how are you gonna see that LCD through the metal panel?
hm..maybe you are new at this...but real PC's don't have glass panels..those are only for advertisement and PC review-ers on YT to show the hardware ;-)
4:36 Nonsense, that cable guard shows only "FORCE RTX" which in my opinion looks sick, definitely an improvement!
For custom water loops, this would be ideal.
I am more surprised why this concept was not created until 2024? I thought a clean look would have been desirable for us for years.
It makes so much sense this way! Its amazing something so simple has only come out now
Ultra clean pc and ultra clean production quality daymn
WAKE UP MEN, NEW OPTIMUM VID JUST DROPPED
Cool build! Solid piping would take it next level!
Very nice idea!
I remember removing bottom case fans to change my case's 'power button LED' .. and later again to connect a 'PCIE x4 wifi card', with this layout it would've just been plug and play!
I hope this is the future
This is the type of innovation pc builders need!! Hope this becomes industry standard!
nononono ... the only "innovation" pc builders need is for the prices to go down ;-)
Just for making the build easier this is super awesome. The cleaner look is a great bonus.
love the music, really helps the video’s [clean] atmosphere, super cool!
also the production on your videos is insane, my mans ballinnnn
This is one of the most beautiful builds. can i have the parts list?
This should be standard it’s 2024😂
damn this is smooth. The connectors on the back is just one of those things that now that it's there it is going to take over simply because it just makes so much more sense.
Great idea, surprised it hasn't caught on sooner. Cos as well as all the other benefits you mentioned, it will probably improve the airflow a lot. I assume air having to run around circular cables probably creates a whole bunch of little vortexes making things slow down quite a bit vs air simply sliding against larger surfaces of the components.
Now what's only left is having the aio tubes go out the back
That's great! I can chuck it in the basement and hook it up to the 50 foot fiber hdmi and usb-c cable going to the room's keystone jacks and never look at it again just like my current build lol.
Damn it! They did it finally! I've waiting for this type of design in consumer motherboards for a long time!
Insane build, holy!
damn clean
How did it take 20 years for someone to think of this.
Looks amazingly clean, I would even go without any lighting option tbh and in total black colour.
Looks great and all for the simpler connectivity
Clean but large. SFF cases are still my favorite.
yea they look clean as hell but are a nightmare to build and upgrade, especially the very tiny ones.
I the Zero build being the most effective for SFF builds.
This is cleaner than my search history
This is amazing, and definitely something I've always wanted to see when I built my first PC years ago.
My only concern is that the pins might snap off cause of pressure from all the cables cluttered in the back.
This makes so much sense, I don't understand why this hasn't been the standard for longer. Great build!
I would like to see a build like this with custom length cables and meticulous cable management.
Looks really nice, but I hope this stays in the pre-built section rather than this becoming the new standard. Can only image how much more annoying it would be having to check compatibility between your motherboard and case more than people already have to, not to mention it's reversing standardization that we've had for years. It could be quite annoying to have Gigabyte motherboards only fit in X companies cases for example, it reduces choice and variation between builds.
It’d be no problem if it actually becomes a “new standard”. All the major cases coming out would support this if this is common enough, to avoid missing/losing out. And it’s not like it is too much of a hassle, they just need to make extra cutouts
The problem is that if this is only a half-assed attempt that only a handful of selected models are “inverted”, like you suggest. Then case companies might just not be bothered to support it.
I personally like this idea, even if you don’t care about the aesthetic, the cable management is just much easier with the connectors on the backside
@@Summer-xu8quI think it's an awesome idea, but some of us have 10yo cases lol
@@hyacinthtiger62 Yes, and what's the problem? If you want to reuse your 10yo case with new build, then just buy normal non-inverted mb. If you want the inverted mb then just buy new cases. The important thing is that the choice is there.
Even if this becomes common enough to completely replace the normal non-inverted mb next gen, your would have had your money's worth already by using your case for 15+ years (accounting for the transition period)
Well I guess it's both highly convenient and coincidental that these companies also are putting out compatible cases! Some might call it the "bare minimum", I call it trying to force you into their ecosystem of products.
super clean bro!
I actually like wires when they're done right with color matched sleeves for all the cables, I've got some nice well organized White extensions- those light up ones are pretty neat too. Of course the back looks like a rat's nest! I love the way my wires add to the way my PC looks. I do know a lot of People hate cables though. I like this idea but I am not a huge fan of how this is sort of like a proprietary Motherboard since you are limited on what cases you can install it in.
10 seconds into the video and the difference in audio is very noticeable. Not bad but you can hear the echo because the warehouse is still pretty empty.
Doesn't turn me off the video tho. Just a thing that I immediately noticed.
Love your videos ❤
thanks for letting me know! more sound treatment to do
tbh, with the music it makes it sound a bit epic. :D
Optimum uploads, I click
Really nice build and beautiful production. Can tell you love that clean minimalist look. What is that long LED light you have set to a jaunty angle in the background?
That is a gorgeous build 👌
optimum really is my favourite youtuber now
Looks so nice. Not having some random cable to try to connect after the cooler would be really nice. I've cut myself on the fins trying to do it in the past.
Will be cool to see how this looks in ITX builds
That white case and white LED fans combination is so satisfying to look at, it personally beats any RGB for me.
Very good mate..Beautiful
When i'm getting ready to build my next PC, in hopefully a few years, this is the direction i've been looking to take, since i saw the first demo of it. Looks SO clean. With adapted GPUs you could end up with such a nice and clean setup 🥰
Very cool build
So clean!
Damn thats clean and extreemly practical, make sso much sense.
I really hope it takes off because it not only looks really pleasing, it also makes sense from easy to build standpoint.
I have this motherboard / case and its amazing how clean everything looks. My only gripe is the boot time but that may be something fixable in the bios settings. I didn't mess with anything aside from the RAM frequency.
that looks very smooth!!!!!
I love that even though they sent you everything for a full MSI build, and you didn't use it because it wouldn't be as clean or neat is why I watch your videos. You seem like you can't be bought or bribed into just giving the reviews they are hoping for. Hopefully that will get MSI's brains turning to solve that cable forest in the back. You're the reason I'm thinking of dabbling into a tiny foot print PC for my next gaming PC. Keep up the good work my dood.
Next-level visual appeal in the angle shot @ 1:30 especially as the camera’s frame rate made the fans be whirring all buttery smooth-like. Know it was intentional and appreciate you!
Also, totally get your vibe on the half-consolation, at best, of the GPU ‘stand’ i.e. cable hider that I agree is worthwhile all in all. What I don’t get is that it seems possible that it could’ve been approx 60% as wide in a manner that would show the GTX and still affix properly in serving the same 2 basic intentions?
Just did a Z790 Project Zero to a Corsair 6500x and it looks so CLEAN without 100 cables in the front!
This is the look and aesthetic I've been waiting for...looking forward to this trend
makes total sense, are the motherboards also readily available?
At first I thought this was dumb, but then I realized that this is actually pretty practical. you have tons of space to work with the cables, and you also get improved airflow and a clean look on the inside.
Wooo i bought one of these recently. Looks very cool.
Part of the build looking nice are the custom sleeved cables for GPU / CPU / MOBO...
I like the size of this case. Not too big and not too small so it can't breathe. Minimal psu compartment unlike dual chamber cases which actually have overkill space for the psu.
great, plz more of this. thx for the Video.
I've been wanting this for years.
I like the look of the main cables being braided and well laid out. And although like these builds, I would really like more ways to reduce all the cables more than just hide them.
Love this. I hope this becomes the new standard.
You need to drop that clean af workout routine
I'm quite happy micro ATX cases are back and I'm looking forward to my building my next PC in one
Please never STOP uploading videos 😁😍😍😍 love your work and ideas brother
you already know we watching the ads at the end of an optimum video
That's clean af!
Funny I decide to build a new PC and my primary focus this time was to make the cleanest build I’ve done thus far. This not only looks incredibly clean but so convenient with all your connections being easily accessible. Hope this becomes the standard by the time I decide to do a new build in the future.
Nice! When cases and mobos are available in itx I will be upgrading
extremely eyepleasing beautiful built...loved it
