1 00:00:00,310 --> 00:00:05,890 - The Fractal Meshify 2 C is or it might not be the best computer case 2 00:00:05,890 --> 00:00:09,590 but it's easily top three for sure. And if building in it is easy today 3 00:00:09,590 --> 00:00:13,860 then like top one or two, probably. 4 00:00:13,860 --> 00:00:17,310 It's freaking sweet, it looks awesome and it should keep your components cool. 5 00:00:17,310 --> 00:00:20,477 What's not to like? Come on. 6 00:00:20,477 --> 00:00:26,040 Meshify 2 Compact user's guide. Yeah that's a fine looking PC right there. 7 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:33,370 One of the big things over the last one was before in order to like get that the dust filter in here, 8 00:00:33,370 --> 00:00:38,460 it was a terrible time. Now what to do you just pull on that logo right there 9 00:00:38,460 --> 00:00:40,313 and boom, dust filter. 10 00:00:41,515 --> 00:00:44,943 Oh, oh okay. This comes off. 11 00:00:44,943 --> 00:00:50,150 You just pull it a bit and boom. Okay, very easy access to the dust filter. 12 00:00:50,150 --> 00:00:56,690 Okay, the top filter is not magnetic, which I actually like I find those always get kind of like misplaced 13 00:00:56,690 --> 00:01:02,582 and I believe it's totally toolless. Woo, yeah. So that just comes right off. 14 00:01:02,582 --> 00:01:06,810 Let's put that back on for now. Rear I think is also toolless 15 00:01:08,581 --> 00:01:10,381 This is gonna be so easy here today. 16 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:18,770 I really like this design in the front. For IO you get two USB 3, headphone, microphone 17 00:01:18,770 --> 00:01:21,770 and new for this one is the type C up here as well, 18 00:01:21,770 --> 00:01:24,453 maybe around. Yeah, it's a computer case. 19 00:01:25,940 --> 00:01:31,600 There you go. Let's start building. I want to do it. I've selected components that are according to the side 20 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,997 of the box will fit, but very close to not fitting. 21 00:01:34,997 --> 00:01:39,673 I believe you can take off the top as well. Yeah, this just. 22 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,750 Heck yeah. This is going to be such an easy build. 23 00:01:44,750 --> 00:01:48,030 Accessories, all look pretty standard. 24 00:01:48,030 --> 00:01:53,140 If you look on the bottom here as well, it's the filter. You just pull from the front, bring it out like that. 25 00:01:53,140 --> 00:01:57,320 Super easy to clean. I am going to remove the hard drive trays just 26 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,160 to get the PSU in and then we'll have to put them back on. 27 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,834 Oh, there's a first kind of stupid thing. The foot interferes with where the hard drive tray's 28 00:02:06,834 --> 00:02:08,143 screw is. 29 00:02:11,913 --> 00:02:15,385 Okay, we'll just move it up as far as we can go for now. 30 00:02:15,385 --> 00:02:19,710 This also has the power supply, a removable thing, 31 00:02:19,710 --> 00:02:23,370 which makes getting your power supply in so much easier. 32 00:02:23,370 --> 00:02:27,370 Today we're going with the Seasonic Prime TX 1000. 33 00:02:27,370 --> 00:02:30,610 I don't have any good reason besides this is a really thick power supply. 34 00:02:30,610 --> 00:02:34,450 That's kind of the long and short of it right there. 35 00:02:34,450 --> 00:02:40,330 It smells good too. Those power supplies should just go in, 36 00:02:40,330 --> 00:02:46,140 doing it this way makes your life so much easier than trying to like get all the cables in afterwards 37 00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:47,493 once it's inside. 38 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,960 I do really like that they already have some straps here for your CPU power. 39 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,970 So today for a CPU, we're going with a 10900K, 40 00:02:57,970 --> 00:03:01,810 it's hot. But most importantly it was 41 00:03:01,810 --> 00:03:07,020 at my desk and I already had built this computer. So we don't have to worry about it not working or anything. 42 00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:10,550 I also have two sticks of RAM for 16 gigabytes in total. 43 00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:13,543 And there's already an SSD in here. I think that's a 970 Evo. 44 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,030 Oh, this is so nice with the top gone. 45 00:03:18,030 --> 00:03:21,300 I did make what could have been quite a bad mistake 46 00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:28,260 right there, because I totally forgot to add in the cooler mounting but this case does have the big old hole 47 00:03:28,260 --> 00:03:32,970 in the back so I'll be able to access that when the time comes in a couple of minutes. 48 00:03:32,970 --> 00:03:38,600 Building PCU is so easy now. Yeah, back in my day, you had to get a bunch 49 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,823 of cuts from the unfinished edges on your steel case. 50 00:03:42,930 --> 00:03:48,860 It should be noted that they give you exactly how many screws you need to attach the motherboard 51 00:03:48,860 --> 00:03:54,660 and the power supplies. So don't drop them on the floor. You guys get a bit of a bonus here on ShortCircuit 8 52 00:03:54,660 --> 00:04:00,400 two unboxings in one. This is the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280. 53 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:06,510 And as far as I can tell, it's pretty fricking sweet. According to Gamers Nexus the performance on this 54 00:04:06,510 --> 00:04:10,010 thing's really good. But at the same time Arctic's performance has been quite 55 00:04:10,010 --> 00:04:14,193 good for a while now. My concern is more so just the mounting. 56 00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:20,649 Oh geez. She's a bit big. Well, this is gonna be fun. 57 00:04:20,649 --> 00:04:24,520 One silly thing about this is they have a little fan up 58 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,624 here. That's supposed to cool down your VRMs. 59 00:04:27,624 --> 00:04:31,760 I feel like it's not gonna be useful for almost everyone. 60 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,273 It's left from that, I think it looks pretty cool. Huge of MX for here. 61 00:04:38,020 --> 00:04:41,330 Well I still have easy. Ooh, okay. 62 00:04:41,330 --> 00:04:44,490 If you're building in this case, you should not 63 00:04:44,490 --> 00:04:49,490 install your AIO before you put power to everything. 64 00:04:49,630 --> 00:04:56,010 I would do that last. For a GPU we're going to be using the AORUS RTX Xtreme 65 00:04:56,260 --> 00:05:01,060 10 Gigabyte. It's a 3080, and it is fricking huge. 66 00:05:01,060 --> 00:05:04,200 I think we have just a couple of millimeters of clearance. 67 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,593 Nice, no problems there. 68 00:05:08,380 --> 00:05:13,543 Oh geez. This is a very big cooler for this, 69 00:05:15,620 --> 00:05:19,990 but it should be fine. So this is where taking the top out is pretty fantastic 70 00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:23,433 'cause now we can drop this down in here. 71 00:05:24,408 --> 00:05:25,241 Oh, maybe. 72 00:05:28,060 --> 00:05:32,179 It does say up to 240 on the top. - [Jono] Are those 280s? 73 00:05:32,179 --> 00:05:36,620 - This is the 280? Okay. Doesn't fit, not even close. 74 00:05:36,620 --> 00:05:39,820 So long Arctic you sent us a cooler 75 00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:44,480 and that actually was really easy to put in but the one that you sent us is too big. 76 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:50,240 All right, moving on to my favorite cooler in the world the NHD 15, it's big, it looks sick, 77 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,960 it cools your stuff really well. No complaints. 78 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,060 It's what I use my personal rig. Again I know I've said this like 10 times 79 00:05:58,060 --> 00:06:03,060 but this would be terrible if the top was still on. 80 00:06:03,300 --> 00:06:08,362 Oh, do you think that I can get in the fan for the CPU cooler without removing the GPU? 81 00:06:08,362 --> 00:06:10,523 It is right up against the cooler. 82 00:06:11,433 --> 00:06:15,153 I'm going to use this hook. It's in the iFixit kit, maybe. 83 00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:21,200 Hell yeah. Did it. Wow, we almost have a computer. 84 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,543 So let's get the cables in here. 85 00:06:24,740 --> 00:06:29,690 Oh man, we just got so lucky. So on a lot of motherboards, it is possible 86 00:06:29,690 --> 00:06:33,840 that the USB headers will be down 87 00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:38,320 under where the graphics card is right now. And I totally forgot to connect them. 88 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,790 But on this one, they're just up here above the GPU. 89 00:06:41,790 --> 00:06:47,760 So we're good. Now it does seem like there's no fan hub included with this. 90 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,710 The original one, I think only had one, 120 millimeter fan up in the front. 91 00:06:52,710 --> 00:06:57,650 This one you get the two 140s and also a 120 in the back. 92 00:06:57,650 --> 00:07:01,800 So that's way more cooling for your components out of the box. 93 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,700 Like when you're buying a case in this price range, this one's $110 94 00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:10,530 the old one was 90. You're probably not going to want to spend like 50 bucks 95 00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:14,170 on sick knock to a fans. So it's really nice that they have these pretty 96 00:07:14,170 --> 00:07:19,653 good ones here stock. For storage. I'm going with a 12 terabytes, Seagate Exos. 97 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,250 It's overkill for pretty much anything. 98 00:07:24,250 --> 00:07:27,523 The only reason that I have it is because it just arrived in the office. 99 00:07:27,523 --> 00:07:31,030 And it's the first hard drive that I saw when I went looking for them. 100 00:07:31,030 --> 00:07:33,240 It's got the cage here. Is it only one screw? 101 00:07:34,590 --> 00:07:38,810 Nice, and then this I believe just goes right 102 00:07:38,810 --> 00:07:42,210 on like that. The hard drive just slides right back in there 103 00:07:42,210 --> 00:07:48,850 like that. No, it was very easy. Now we do want to reattach the hard drive cage. 104 00:07:48,850 --> 00:07:53,730 I feel like kind of no matter what you want to move it as far forward, as you can, 105 00:07:53,730 --> 00:07:59,770 just to give yourself more space for all the cables. Hey Jono, how much effort should we put into 106 00:08:01,010 --> 00:08:04,018 cleaning up the back of this case? [Jono] Zero. 107 00:08:04,018 --> 00:08:07,140 - Zero? What about you put on a timer for two 108 00:08:07,140 --> 00:08:13,060 and a half minutes and whatever we can achieve in that amount of time is how good the back's gonna be. 109 00:08:13,060 --> 00:08:17,590 Timer for two and a half minutes. Speed cable management, yeah. 110 00:08:17,590 --> 00:08:21,280 This straps are not as good as I originally thought 'cause you can't really tighten them down, 111 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,486 but at the same time, way better than no straps at all. 112 00:08:25,486 --> 00:08:29,890 Oh, balls. All right, screw it we're just bundling it. 113 00:08:29,890 --> 00:08:33,701 Minute 30. Oh balls, It's cramming time now 114 00:08:33,701 --> 00:08:36,299 - [Jono] 4, 3, 2, 1. 115 00:08:38,078 --> 00:08:44,100 - For 10 minutes and 30 seconds. I think that's a really clean backside of your case. 116 00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:47,630 Now the one big thing that you don't get with this case 117 00:08:47,630 --> 00:08:50,673 is RGB. There's basically. 118 00:08:51,790 --> 00:08:55,790 Yeah, there's none. There's just no RGB at all. You can put the top on now 119 00:08:59,634 --> 00:09:00,551 Back panel. 120 00:09:04,990 --> 00:09:06,640 This I think came off the bottom. 121 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:14,450 Yep. Are we done? I think we're done, hour and a half? 122 00:09:14,450 --> 00:09:16,830 Not too bad. Especially given that 123 00:09:18,050 --> 00:09:21,920 we probably could have saved nearly half an hour if we didn't bother with the air cooler there. 124 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,595 That was especially for the size of this case 125 00:09:25,595 --> 00:09:29,370 an exceptionally easy little PC build. 126 00:09:29,370 --> 00:09:33,110 I don't know about you guys but I think that this is a fantastic looking rig. 127 00:09:33,110 --> 00:09:37,180 I really like this case. Its biggest competitor is easily the O11-Dynamic-mini 128 00:09:37,180 --> 00:09:40,910 but the reason why I'm more inclined to recommend this one 129 00:09:40,910 --> 00:09:44,050 is because this takes a full ATX power supply 130 00:09:44,050 --> 00:09:47,370 the O11-mini you have to use an SFX L so 131 00:09:47,370 --> 00:09:51,390 that gets really expensive really fast. If you're trying to put like a thousand watt 132 00:09:51,390 --> 00:09:53,443 or like anything about 600 Watts in it. 133 00:09:57,500 --> 00:09:59,850 Heck yeah. Well, there we go. 134 00:10:00,900 --> 00:10:05,900 The Meshify 2 Compact is a fricking awesome little case. 135 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,970 And I think if you're looking for a case and like, you know 136 00:10:11,970 --> 00:10:16,534 about $110, you really can't go wrong with this thing. 137 00:10:16,534 --> 00:10:20,310 Hit, like get subscribed, have a great old day. 138 00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:21,143 See ya.
