WEBVTT 00:00:00.310 --> 00:00:05.890 - The Fractal Meshify 2 C is or it might not be the best computer case 00:00:05.890 --> 00:00:09.590 but it's easily top three for sure. And if building in it is easy today 00:00:09.590 --> 00:00:13.860 then like top one or two, probably. 00:00:13.860 --> 00:00:17.310 It's freaking sweet, it looks awesome and it should keep your components cool. 00:00:17.310 --> 00:00:20.477 What's not to like? Come on. 00:00:20.477 --> 00:00:26.040 Meshify 2 Compact user's guide. Yeah that's a fine looking PC right there. 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, 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 00:00:38.460 --> 00:00:40.313 and boom, dust filter. 00:00:41.515 --> 00:00:44.943 Oh, oh okay. This comes off. 00:00:44.943 --> 00:00:50.150 You just pull it a bit and boom. Okay, very easy access to the dust filter. 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 00:00:56.690 --> 00:01:02.582 and I believe it's totally toolless. Woo, yeah. So that just comes right off. 00:01:02.582 --> 00:01:06.810 Let's put that back on for now. Rear I think is also toolless 00:01:08.581 --> 00:01:10.381 This is gonna be so easy here today. 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 00:01:18.770 --> 00:01:21.770 and new for this one is the type C up here as well, 00:01:21.770 --> 00:01:24.453 maybe around. Yeah, it's a computer case. 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 00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:34.997 of the box will fit, but very close to not fitting. 00:01:34.997 --> 00:01:39.673 I believe you can take off the top as well. Yeah, this just. 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:44.750 Heck yeah. This is going to be such an easy build. 00:01:44.750 --> 00:01:48.030 Accessories, all look pretty standard. 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. 00:01:53.140 --> 00:01:57.320 Super easy to clean. I am going to remove the hard drive trays just 00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:01.160 to get the PSU in and then we'll have to put them back on. 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 00:02:06.834 --> 00:02:08.143 screw is. 00:02:11.913 --> 00:02:15.385 Okay, we'll just move it up as far as we can go for now. 00:02:15.385 --> 00:02:19.710 This also has the power supply, a removable thing, 00:02:19.710 --> 00:02:23.370 which makes getting your power supply in so much easier. 00:02:23.370 --> 00:02:27.370 Today we're going with the Seasonic Prime TX 1000. 00:02:27.370 --> 00:02:30.610 I don't have any good reason besides this is a really thick power supply. 00:02:30.610 --> 00:02:34.450 That's kind of the long and short of it right there. 00:02:34.450 --> 00:02:40.330 It smells good too. Those power supplies should just go in, 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 00:02:46.140 --> 00:02:47.493 once it's inside. 00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:53.960 I do really like that they already have some straps here for your CPU power. 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:57.970 So today for a CPU, we're going with a 10900K, 00:02:57.970 --> 00:03:01.810 it's hot. But most importantly it was 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. 00:03:07.020 --> 00:03:10.550 I also have two sticks of RAM for 16 gigabytes in total. 00:03:10.550 --> 00:03:13.543 And there's already an SSD in here. I think that's a 970 Evo. 00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:18.030 Oh, this is so nice with the top gone. 00:03:18.030 --> 00:03:21.300 I did make what could have been quite a bad mistake 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 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. 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 00:03:38.600 --> 00:03:41.823 of cuts from the unfinished edges on your steel case. 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 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 00:03:54.660 --> 00:04:00.400 two unboxings in one. This is the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280. 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 00:04:06.510 --> 00:04:10.010 thing's really good. But at the same time Arctic's performance has been quite 00:04:10.010 --> 00:04:14.193 good for a while now. My concern is more so just the mounting. 00:04:17.030 --> 00:04:20.649 Oh geez. She's a bit big. Well, this is gonna be fun. 00:04:20.649 --> 00:04:24.520 One silly thing about this is they have a little fan up 00:04:24.520 --> 00:04:27.624 here. That's supposed to cool down your VRMs. 00:04:27.624 --> 00:04:31.760 I feel like it's not gonna be useful for almost everyone. 00:04:31.760 --> 00:04:36.273 It's left from that, I think it looks pretty cool. Huge of MX for here. 00:04:38.020 --> 00:04:41.330 Well I still have easy. Ooh, okay. 00:04:41.330 --> 00:04:44.490 If you're building in this case, you should not 00:04:44.490 --> 00:04:49.490 install your AIO before you put power to everything. 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 00:04:56.260 --> 00:05:01.060 10 Gigabyte. It's a 3080, and it is fricking huge. 00:05:01.060 --> 00:05:04.200 I think we have just a couple of millimeters of clearance. 00:05:04.200 --> 00:05:06.593 Nice, no problems there. 00:05:08.380 --> 00:05:13.543 Oh geez. This is a very big cooler for this, 00:05:15.620 --> 00:05:19.990 but it should be fine. So this is where taking the top out is pretty fantastic 00:05:19.990 --> 00:05:23.433 'cause now we can drop this down in here. 00:05:24.408 --> 00:05:25.241 Oh, maybe. 00:05:28.060 --> 00:05:32.179 It does say up to 240 on the top. - [Jono] Are those 280s? 00:05:32.179 --> 00:05:36.620 - This is the 280? Okay. Doesn't fit, not even close. 00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:39.820 So long Arctic you sent us a cooler 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. 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, 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:53.960 it cools your stuff really well. No complaints. 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 00:05:58.060 --> 00:06:03.060 but this would be terrible if the top was still on. 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? 00:06:08.362 --> 00:06:10.523 It is right up against the cooler. 00:06:11.433 --> 00:06:15.153 I'm going to use this hook. It's in the iFixit kit, maybe. 00:06:17.460 --> 00:06:21.200 Hell yeah. Did it. Wow, we almost have a computer. 00:06:21.200 --> 00:06:23.543 So let's get the cables in here. 00:06:24.740 --> 00:06:29.690 Oh man, we just got so lucky. So on a lot of motherboards, it is possible 00:06:29.690 --> 00:06:33.840 that the USB headers will be down 00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:38.320 under where the graphics card is right now. And I totally forgot to connect them. 00:06:38.320 --> 00:06:41.790 But on this one, they're just up here above the GPU. 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. 00:06:47.760 --> 00:06:52.710 The original one, I think only had one, 120 millimeter fan up in the front. 00:06:52.710 --> 00:06:57.650 This one you get the two 140s and also a 120 in the back. 00:06:57.650 --> 00:07:01.800 So that's way more cooling for your components out of the box. 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:05.700 Like when you're buying a case in this price range, this one's $110 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 00:07:10.530 --> 00:07:14.170 on sick knock to a fans. So it's really nice that they have these pretty 00:07:14.170 --> 00:07:19.653 good ones here stock. For storage. I'm going with a 12 terabytes, Seagate Exos. 00:07:20.840 --> 00:07:24.250 It's overkill for pretty much anything. 00:07:24.250 --> 00:07:27.523 The only reason that I have it is because it just arrived in the office. 00:07:27.523 --> 00:07:31.030 And it's the first hard drive that I saw when I went looking for them. 00:07:31.030 --> 00:07:33.240 It's got the cage here. Is it only one screw? 00:07:34.590 --> 00:07:38.810 Nice, and then this I believe just goes right 00:07:38.810 --> 00:07:42.210 on like that. The hard drive just slides right back in there 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. 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, 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 00:08:01.010 --> 00:08:04.018 cleaning up the back of this case? [Jono] Zero. 00:08:04.018 --> 00:08:07.140 - Zero? What about you put on a timer for two 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. 00:08:13.060 --> 00:08:17.590 Timer for two and a half minutes. Speed cable management, yeah. 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, 00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:25.486 but at the same time, way better than no straps at all. 00:08:25.486 --> 00:08:29.890 Oh, balls. All right, screw it we're just bundling it. 00:08:29.890 --> 00:08:33.701 Minute 30. Oh balls, It's cramming time now 00:08:33.701 --> 00:08:36.299 - [Jono] 4, 3, 2, 1. 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. 00:08:44.100 --> 00:08:47.630 Now the one big thing that you don't get with this case 00:08:47.630 --> 00:08:50.673 is RGB. There's basically. 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 00:08:59.634 --> 00:09:00.551 Back panel. 00:09:04.990 --> 00:09:06.640 This I think came off the bottom. 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:14.450 Yep. Are we done? I think we're done, hour and a half? 00:09:14.450 --> 00:09:16.830 Not too bad. Especially given that 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. 00:09:21.920 --> 00:09:25.595 That was especially for the size of this case 00:09:25.595 --> 00:09:29.370 an exceptionally easy little PC build. 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. 00:09:33.110 --> 00:09:37.180 I really like this case. Its biggest competitor is easily the O11-Dynamic-mini 00:09:37.180 --> 00:09:40.910 but the reason why I'm more inclined to recommend this one 00:09:40.910 --> 00:09:44.050 is because this takes a full ATX power supply 00:09:44.050 --> 00:09:47.370 the O11-mini you have to use an SFX L so 00:09:47.370 --> 00:09:51.390 that gets really expensive really fast. If you're trying to put like a thousand watt 00:09:51.390 --> 00:09:53.443 or like anything about 600 Watts in it. 00:09:57.500 --> 00:09:59.850 Heck yeah. Well, there we go. 00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:05.900 The Meshify 2 Compact is a fricking awesome little case. 00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:11.970 And I think if you're looking for a case and like, you know 00:10:11.970 --> 00:10:16.534 about $110, you really can't go wrong with this thing. 00:10:16.534 --> 00:10:20.310 Hit, like get subscribed, have a great old day. 00:10:20.310 --> 00:10:21.143 See ya.
