Question New Build Questions

[dillomcmillo]

I am looking at building a new computer soon and had a few questions as far as the radiators, spacing as well as the power supply for this build.

SPECS:

Case: Corsair 7000D Airflow

MB: Gigabyte Z790 AORUS Elite AX

CPU: Intel Core I-9 13900k

CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken Elite 360

GPU: MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim Liquid X

RAM: Corsair Dominator Platnium DDR5 4x8GB 6600Mhz

PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W 80+Gold ATX 3.0

Pulling storage drives from old build

Questions:

Will the case allow mounting for the radiator for both the GPU and the CPU?

What would be the best way to mount both radiators for optimized airflow?

This is my first time doing a complete build from scratch, any advice from anyone with experience with any of these parts are greatly appreciated!

By looking at this case you can have 3 fans on top and 3 fans on front so your gpu and cpu should fit in this case nicely

Here youtube vid of cpu and gpu fans also notice you can place more fans on the side so if you buy more fans might suggest having side fans let air in and back fan and the gpu and cpu fans letting air out

I have seen in videos that this case requires 2 USB connections on the motherboard. Is there any motherboards within the same price range or a case that only requires one usb connection on the motherboard but still has room for the 2 radiators?

Motherboard has two USB slots one to plug in gpu and one for cpu but another idea is to scrap the Liquid X GPU and go wtih normal 4090 MSI. That way you only use one USB connection

Does it require an extra USB connection due to the radiator? Also I didn’t see on the diagram for that specific motherboard where the 2nd usb socket is

I was wrong sorry but Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim Liquid X dose not need an usb header just connect to socket and you mount it on front only CPU cooler needs the USB header just got abit mixed up so everything is good. In my case i mounted the CPU cooler ontop because its near the socket and if ever get gpu that is Liquid will place it on front because its near to socket.
