Most of the content here at Optimum Tech is enthusiast focused, but I wanted to do a super basic build guide for the NZXT H1 for beginners. It's a bit different, but I hope you'll enjoy!

"This isn't going to be cinematic" - You almost had me fooled.

It's like you were in my head. I priced and spec'd out this exact PC, case and all. You just made it come to life in the real! Great build. Great visuals and editing. Keep up the good work!

Bookmarking this vid as im planning to build around this case in 2 months.

hearing the clicks....ASMR. thanks so much for making this!

Simple, straight to the point, easy to understand and reproduce. I think you'll have a hard time finding a better made PC building tutorial than this one. Great job Optimum!

How can someone even dislike a video like this? Everything is very well explained and detailed

I must have watched this video 25 times...
First 3 watches were admiring the cinematic work. Next 2 watches to convince me that the NZXT H1 was the case to use to build my first PC. The next 5 watches to compare my parts list and drool over that 2070 Super FE...
The last 15 watches were during my build to give me the peace of mind and confidence that I CAN DO THIS!

My first PC build!
- NZXT H1

- Asus ROG STRIX B550-I

- Vengeance LPX 32 GB 3600 MHz

- Ryzen 7 3700x

- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super FE

- Crucial 1TB M.2 NVMe

Thank you!
I can honestly say, I would not have taken on this project if this video did not exist... subbed... great channel!

[donovanchriste]

Just ordered this case today. I was a bit worried about the cable management but you definitely put my mind at ease.

My son and I just built his first PC using your video as a guide. Great work -- THANKS!

This was exactly the video I needed, as I work to downsize my office! I'm happy to build my own PC, but just can't keep up with all the latest hardware. This got me on the right track for looking at the right pieces and starting to decide what to possibly upgrade, and what to keep from my old PC build to save money.

Thanks for a great to-the-point video!

$1400 sounds fine, until you remember there’s something out there and the world economy freaked out

*cries in weak AUD*

[TuanNguyen-sdvw]

Perfect timing I guess many people were waiting for this including myself 😬

Most comprehensive review/build ive seen ever

[peeborp]

thank you for making this! just finished a H1 build & this made it a breeze.

[Vitto_rio]

I have studied this video meticulously. I think I am now ready to purchase all the parts. Thank you for this video 😂

[funknugget]

Oppy, tell NZXT to restock the H1 for us please. I’ve been waiting so long :(
