Hi,

i am building an computer with these component and need help to choose which chassis will fit all of this especially the graphic card because it's huge and being able to close the case to.

Intel Core i9 13900K
ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 16GB ROG Strix Gaming OC
ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Hero
Corsair 64GB (4x16GB) DDR5 5600MHz CL36 Vengeance RGB
2xSamsung 990 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2TB = 4 TB tot
Samsung 870 EVO SATA SSD 4TB
Seagate Firecuda 8TB 7200rpm 260MB
6 x Corsair iCUE LINK QX120 RGB
Corsair iCUE LINK H150i RGB


Will any of these chassis work?
Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL ROG Certified
Corsair iCUE 5000X
NZXT H9 Elite
NZXT H9 Flow
Hyte Y60 PCI-e 4.0
Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic EVO


Or do you recommend other?
 
Yeah, most of those chassis are huge.

You should be doing 2x32GB memory rather than 4x16GB. Also no reason to limit yourself to 5600. 6400 should be pretty easy to get working, also CL32 and CL30 memory out there.

For this much money I don't quite understand why you aren't getting a 4090.

Missing a power supply as well, going to need at least an 850W or 1000W for a 4090.

That is a lot of storage. I would start with a 2TB boot drive and maybe the 4TB SATA drive for bulk storage. Hold off unless you already need that much, as drives will get larger/cheaper. Nothing wrong with the hard drive as a back up, but really shouldn't leave it in the system. Get an external enclosure and start a regular backup routine.

Thank you for the information ! Why is 2x32gb better than 4x16 ? if i use 6400 then i would need o overclock my motherboard right ?
 
Less chips to power too, though DDR5 has its own power delivery on the sticks now. Better airflow between them. And in many situations using less sticks means there is more room between the memory and a large CPU air cooler. Can mean the difference between a fan sitting level with the cooler or needing to be repositioned or removed entirely. Doesn't matter all that much with liquid coolers.

But when using water coolers, you no longer have that airflow near the motherboard VRM and memory which is something to keep in mind. A tight pack of 4 sticks will have the middle two sticks running a lot warmer.

Well, they can't test everything, and they clearly didn't bother testing 4x configs, since pretty much no one is selling 4x kits. You also risk getting two kits that won't work together.

You can certainly get something to work, you are just not guaranteed to get the rated XMP speed, well, ever. Just depends on the memory and IMC in the CPU and how much time you want to spend tuning / testing the memory. They tested quite a few 7000 kits, so 6400 is a safe bet and doesn't cost a fortune.

As for 2x32GB, they did test a few, and 2x48GB should also be supported, though again, not tested.

4 x DIMM, Max. 192GB

If you like Corsair, just pick out a nice 2x32GB kit and give a try.

Here is an MSI board with 2x32GB 6800 CL34


Gigabyte 4x16GB 6600 CL 32


ASUS ROG Strix 2x32GB 5600

My latest build has three 1TB M.2 drives on the mobo and five hard disks that were to hand, totalling 30TB. I'm pulling data off one drive and writing to another drive all the time, when rendering videos. Other builds have up to 10 hard drives in each tower case, some in RAID-Z2.

I'm not in favour of leaving external hard drives running for long periods outside a computercase. They could get bumped or knocked over with the danger of head crashes, or inadvertently unplugged in the middle of a disk write.

I have numerous 3.5in USB3 external desktop drives and they run 10 to 15 degrees Centigrade hotter than the same disks mounted inside a tower with decent cooling. After archiving data, I unplug them and put them back in the cupboard.
