I love how tiny this is, but not being able to fit at least a flex psu and bigger itx gpu is kind of a deal breaker for me. I think I'll be happy with the velka 3 clone I got off AliExpress... if it ever gets here. Maybe I'll do a build in this case too and just keep whichever I end up liking more.
I subbed way back when you were getting a couple thousand views a video, didn't come back until now. Glad to see you're still making videos, love your production values and concise style. Keep up the good work :)
Insane how compact this is. High quality review, as always. Thanks! This could have a somewhat bigger brother with space for additional storage so it can be used as a compact NAS/home server. The only option to add more storage into this is to use a half-height M.2 PCIe expander card.
I have been searching for something like this for a good while now. I thank you so much for bringing this to our attention! You are actually a life saver for this, man!
I absolutely love this. 2 liters smaller volume than the NUC 9 Extreme, and with desktop hardware. This just inspires me, I want to build one of these.
I really appreciate your commitment to ITX PCs! I still feel like so many people love a giant enclosure for their components when they could have something like this!
I love your SFF videos and it is very helpful! I like the work you put into this. I'll definitely support you by watching ads and not skip them. Keep it up my friend!
This is pretty frikkin sweet. I think when you originally released your video about the J-Hack Pure, I said how cool it would be to have this virtually cable-less build, if they just added a bay for a low-profile GPU. And well, now I feel like I have to put my money where my mouth is and buy one! Awesome little case. Only thing is that ridiculous riser cable, wonder if there already exists some kind of card you could use as a daughter-board.
Great reviews of SFF builds. The landscape of SFF cases continues to change, evolve and get better. Suggestion for the next build. Start with GEEEK G4 4.8L case & Flex PSU, then build a Ryzen 5700G system with DD4-3600 RAM and go from there. The case looks like it has some potential, since it supports a bottom and top 92mm X 15mm fan, would that help thermals? Build and find out.
I guess it's a matter of time... But he also focus on SFF, so his public is a bit different of Marquees, Dave2d and Linus... I watch all then, for me each one covers a specific content better than general content..
Great review. Though, I wished you also showcased the other PSUs during the build for comparison with clearance. Either way, this build looks promising as an HTPC.
Pretty good idea. I'm also trying to spare free place on my or my parents' desk. It was funny, when I started to think about how is working the idea from the cooling side, you started to summarize that part too :D Great video, show more ^^
What is that square case featured in the size comparison at 3:24? As a suggestion, may I humbly request that you identify the cases that you compare to? Thanks!
I was looking for a build that actually incorporated a low profile graphics card and this is it! This looks like it can be a very budget build as opposed to all these other builds I see that are really just cramming 30 series overkill cards into the smallest space possible.
I would really love to see a case like this with the minimum of more space to fit a 3,5" HDD - that way, you could built a nice rig with much space for cheap.
I decided to buy a 1650 as a card to tie me over till next gen as my 980ti died on me and as my first ever budget and low powered card, I love it, I honestly don't understand the hate for it, there is nothing like this card and it's pumping out graphics comparable or better than a gtx680 would which I think needed two 6 pins to power it back in the day
I'm going to build in this case soon. I have a Gigabyte mobo with the atx pin moved up like yours. Also got the new hdplex too. I will let you know how it goes.
This would be perfect as a secondary pc (for a relative)....exactly what I was thinking about. I've seen other itx builds, some are too small and underpowered for gaming but this one hits the spot. Hope you keep making more vids....seems your channel has been fairly quiet for a bit.
I liked this video. Keep it going. This is the exact same build that I was going to do. Thanks for info. Oops, my build was minus fan which I will now add.
In the video, you present three options for the PSU. Does that mean that I could use any of the three to power the MB referenced in this video? Thanks. BTW: Very useful video. I am glad I found it. Thanks for posting, and for all the effort that you put into the content.
Thanks for the amazing video. Do you think one could cram a 4tb 2.5 hdd inside there? And also could you please check the power draw at wall in idle mode? This is very important for people looking for a decent 24/7 plex server
@@meteormedia7021 They sure do. So do EVGA, Gigabyte, Asus, and PNY. But they are hard to find now. 2070s and 2060s are rare to find, 2060 is hit or miss.
. Why bother with riser cable if you could just stick that card in the mobo slot? That would made case shorter, but a few centimeter taller (keeping roughly same volume) but that way your CPU cooler choice becomes better AND you are saving 30$ on unnessesary riser cable. I don't get it, just why?
Not quite the same size, it'll be 3.4-3.5L. If you increase the height, and use the GPU vertically, it'll be approx. 212 x 85 x 190 (mm^3). But of course, it is no longer a nice slim form factor. Sometimes it's not about the size, but the shape ;)
Hey, excellent job. That's a very beautiful SFF. I am always into RGB. Do you think Cryorig C7 RGB CPU cooler and G. Skill Trident Neo will go along well with this case?
While both of those will fit, I recommend going with low profile RAM (like corsair LPX) and either noctua L9 or the new ID Cooling IS-47K that is coming out.
I just have to ask, what's up with Mini-ITX cases and their lack of front panel USB ports and reset button? They're so essential to a PC, especially a small one and they don't take up that much space to begin with. For the enthusiast a reset switch can be used as a clear CMOS button when overclocking and undervolting without having to weave around tightly packed components and it's a nice to have regardless.
When you are building an ultra compact system every inch counts. Front IO would just make this case even tighter internally.I don't personally ever use it anyway, I just add a USB hub if I need easy access ports.
You can achieve lower temps on cpu using a better thermal paste, i have see one brazilian youtuber using something like liquid metal, its kind hard to apply, but the results are awesome
Ha, you really think I would leave fart audio in a video?... I do admit that while I was editing that section I thought... "someone is gonna say that's a fart"
