Yes, it was. I highly recommend anyone to buy some custom length cables. The ones in the Corsair kit are too long, and you have to do a lot of work to make it look reasonable. Thank you for the comment 👌
Look clean!! I just set up a CH160 build a few days ago, and my cable management is a complete mess compared to this 😆 This was my first ever build though so I don't have any experience with how to deal with the cables. I struggled to get the GPU in because of the cables coming out the bottom of the PSU. I noticed you switched the PSU to the front of the case rather than front, side. That means you give up the front case fan but maybe it's better for cable management.
It was very painful to get the cable management to a reasonable point. Yes, I did flip the PSU to the front and sacrificed the front intake fan, but temps are more than comfortable at a max 68/74 on CPU and 69 on GPU in gaming. The TUF GPU made it really difficult to cable manage but I used the channel behind the GPU to run any excess cable lengths. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment.
Should've go with SFX instead of SFX-L, man. That CPU and GPU combo doesn't need 850 watt PSU. That way you can mount it on the side and then put an intake fan on front. That cpu cooler will not get any fresh air, combined with hot air from the gpu it will create a bad scenario. Nice video though. A question, do you think a Sapphire Nitro+ RX7900 XTX will fit in that case? A friend ask me to set up his PC with that card as the main hardware and he wants a small to medium foot print pc on his desk. Thanks.
that card will definitely not fit this case. the CH160 is limited to 305mm GPUs, the Sapphire Nitro+ RX7900 XTX is 320mm in length. source: i have that card.
Thank you for the comment 😊. Yes, I agree with your opinion on the front fan and PSU placement. This is not the optimal layout for thermals and was done for aesthetics and working with what I had. Also, as per the comment below, the max GPU clearance is 305mm. The TUF fits with a 2mm gap to the front pannel, hope this helps 👍
@@standard_hardware ty for replying. I really like the aesthetic of that case and my friend had similar taste to mine, he probably would love that too. Too bad. I've been looking at Fractal Torrent Nano but I'm not really sure. 😁 Anyway thanks again.
Great video. I like your build. I want to do same. Will you be able to tell me what was the temps on CPU and GPU on benchmark or stres test please. ☺️👍
Thanks for the comment. CPU temps avg 65 in gaming and 79 in stress testing. GPU averages 62 in gaming and 70 in stress testing. I'd 100% have a front intake fan, use a sfx PSU, and not an SFX-L, and it will fit. Also, get some custom length cables will save a lot of space.
@@ninjakajooislive i have moved front fan from that 2 tower cooler and put to back, so no exhaust fan at case and its fine. GPU works on its self as i set IT up in AMD software and all cores in CPU -20. i have played BF 2042 last night and temps are really good. Max MID 70s. I'm happy from the build
As i was rush to make build i didnt realize how big cooler will be and saw some other mitx builds and i think i will be changing cooler to around 67mm tall and lian li lcd fan
@standard_hardware Bull. The side panel the PSU fan should be FACING the side panel, the case even has a mesh cut out that (coincidently) is shaped just like the PSU fan face. Gee, wonder why that is. Why would you want hot case air entering the PSU??
@@DeadPiixxel I just didn't want to get into it, what's the point. He is right, the PSU fan should be facing outward for optimal use. However in this case, when you orientate the PSU at the top you cannot have the fan facing upward as the 3-pin internal cable sticks out the side of the case and then you cannot close the side panel.
cable management must have been hell with that little space, great video, and nice build

Great to see a new video!! 🔥
Looks awesome
Clean as ever 💪🏽💪🏽
That's ace mate
that cpu cooler is crazy
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

killer build, the rear IO plastic was bugging me though lol
Haha, i left it on purpose. You are the first one to notice 👀. Will take it off in the next build. Thanks for thr comment 👍
@@standard_hardware no worries just something I saw haha

Man I wish I could get my hands on this case, had to go with a different option sadly.

Thx for getting back to me
With that build you could have done rear intake and top exhaust and test the temps.

8 pin cpu питания хватает для 7800x3d? нету проблем с нехваткой напряжения?
с такими ногтями, заусенцами, пальцами - надо надевать перчатки а не показывать крупным планом. А компьютер супер!
😂 thank you Tavarish
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂да ладно, специалист «маникурист» 🥲
Why in the crap do so many people face the PSU the WRONG WAY.
😂😂 No right or wrong way.
