be quiet! Light Base 900 FX Featured Build

We're back with another of our featured build videos, this time around it's sponsored by be quiet! and the Light Base 900 FX case. I reviewed the smaller Light Base 600 LX recently but now we're moving onto the bigger variant which I'll be using to build a high-spec gaming system. We're also using a few other new bits from be quiet!, including the new Light Loop 360 AIO CPU cooler and the beastly Dark Power Pro 13 power supply.
