Visualize Your PC Build in 3D — No More Guesswork

When it comes to building a PC, planning is everything. Whether you're a first-time builder or a seasoned enthusiast, visualizing your setup ahead of time helps avoid compatibility issues and makes the whole process smoother and more cost-effective.

That’s why we are excited to introduce you to Buildcores — an incredibly useful online tool that lets you create and preview your custom PC builds in real time. Even better? Many of our darkFlash cases and cooling products are available on the platform, so you can see exactly how your setup will look before you make a purchase!

What is Buildcores?

Buildcores is a browser-based PC builder that focuses on visualizing your build in 3D. You can select your components — from the CPU and GPU to the case, fans, and power supply — and the site will automatically check compatibility between parts.

What sets Buildcores apart is its stunning 3D rendering: it allows you to see how everything fits together, down to cable clearance, airflow direction, and lighting layout.

How to Use Buildcores

1. Visit the Buildcores Website

Head to https://buildcores.com and click on “Start Building” to begin.

2. Choose Your Components

Pick your Case, CPU, motherboard, GPU, RAM, and other components step by step. If you already have some parts in mind, you can load them directly.

3. Select Your Case (Example: darkFlash DY470)

Start by selecting your PC case — this is required before adding any components. You can browse the list use the filters on the left, or search for a specific model. For example, type “darkFlash DY470” in the search bar to begin building with that case.

💡 Note: Make sure to choose products labeled with “3D” to enable 3D preview features.

4. View Specs and Buy Links

After clicking on a component, you’ll see its detailed specifications along with purchase links — making it easy to learn more or buy directly from online stores.

5. Preview Your Build in 3D

Once you’ve selected all your components, you can preview the full build in 3D. Use your mouse to rotate and view from different angles. You can also use the controls below the preview window to adjust RGB lighting effects in real time.

6. Save or Share Your Build

Happy with your setup? Save it for later or share it with friends or on forums. It’s a great way to get feedback or make sure everything’s ready before you hit “buy.”
