Did Seasonic create perfection?? - Syncro Q7 Series

Power Supplies and pc cases selection are usually mismatched with two different companies, but what happens when it's made by the same company and designed to work together? Perfection 🤤

Would actually like to see a proper build with this case and PSU on the main channel.

[OddJobEntertainment]

I like to think that company's send products to Linus as a cheaper alternative to doing durability and wear testing.

[plazasta]

you know, for Seasonic's first attempt at a case, it's surprisingly good! I'd say that gives us two options:
either Seasonic are just that good, in which case they should make more cases
or designing a good case is much easier than we thought and most case manufacturers out there are a bunch of incompetent idiots

[josephdattola]

Linus: I don't ever read the user manual
Also Linus: Tears apart almost the entire case when everything is easily accessible.

[AsherDutchie]

The way Linus just throws this case around all episode TERRIFIES me

[Donanzador]

That actually looks really neat, would love to see a full build in that case.

5:24 Stopping the music really enhanced the suspense. Editing done right.

"Why are there RGB and fan extension cables?"

So you could plug those two cables into your motherboard and route literally EVERY RGB and fan cable in the system to the distro block. Lights and fans account for 80% of the visible cable clutter in a case these days. It's like Seasonic threw in a free fan and RGB hub so you didn't need to buy one.

"Why did they put so much thought into RGB for this case and not include any RGB?"

Look, you haven't fully grasped the point of this case. The case was not designed to accommodate the power supply. The case AND the power supply were designed together as a PLATFORM. Seasonic have basically said, "You want a case that can handle RGB? Done. You want it to handle 10 fans and radiators? No problem. Don't want to take up space and cram separate RGB and fan controllers into the back of the case? Our distro block is the only hub you need."

They are deliberately minimizing aesthetic choices so you can use this platform to build anything from a showpiece PC to an under-the-desk workhorse. You can swap this power supply out in the future and not have to rewire your entire system. You can swap out your motherboard, and since the fans and LEDs are hooked into the distro block, you don't have to re-route a bunch of tiny cables so they reach the new header locations on the new motherboard. I really like where this is going, and I hope they make it a standard of some kind so more cases and power supply vendors can do something similar.

For their first time making a case, that is fantastic!
I want a Full ATX version!

[Doopsums]

For being their first case, I'm really impressed. Good use of magnets and filters, good out of the box airflow, good cable management, and the power supply configuration is a game changer.

[shibasss]

This is a really neat idea, nice to see companies try new things and actually refining them over time instead of just abandoning them midway

[josephbergman]

Love the idea, please do a build in the case but can you do it as a live video so we can learn what works or doesn’t as you do.
I’d like to see strange boards test fit and other stuff to explore this

Personally I like the case quite a bit and I was a fan of the PSU design but concerned a normal case might not fit it right

[mikecharnecke]

2020: building an entire build around your power supply. Lol

Just like when the needles fell off of Charlie Brown's Christmas tree. A+ editing, couldn't stop laughing lmao

[pvtpaink]

I was very sceptical at first, but in this case at least, it's a cool idea. I want to see you try to add this power supply to a case not made for it.

[ConnorNolanTech]

My favorite part of this power supply is that if I wanted to just replace it down the line with a better one of the same variety, I don't have to redo any of my cable runs.

The included Nidec fans are a genius idea.
You want RGB? You sell them (they go for a significant amount of money), and with the money you raise you buy whatever kind of RGB you want.
You don't want RGB? You keep them, and you don't need to upgrade fans because you already have some of the best in the market.

Seasonic leaves the choice to you, while at the same time helping you a lot with whatever choice you make.
Hard to say if this was actually intended, but it is brilliant regardless.
If anyone from SS is reading, you guys might actually have a serious talent for designing cases. Don't let it go to waste.
