Why are you advertising Asus boards with 7000X3D cpus with the issues around them together. I get if the video was shot before it BUT take out the affiliate links at least from the video description and this comment.
The warranty sticker thing is one of the main reasons I'll miss EVGA's GPUs. They honor their warranty even when you disassemble and install a waterblock on the card. I've had to RMA two EVGA GPUs (out of like 11 I've owned from them) after I watercooled them. I told them up front that they've been watercooled. They simply told me to put the stock heatsink back on and said the only issue would be if I didn't have the stock thermal pads anymore (which they offered to send me). RMA process was a breeze still. RIP EVGA, you will be missed.
XFX are just as good, if not better. They explicitly list that they don't cover warranty on used cards, but when my $250 6800xt started acting up (shocking, I know), they agreed to provide RMA so long as I paid for shipping. This was a surprise to me, I even told them it was used.
The SSD bending is because there's space for a double sided SSD, but a single sided one is thinner so it doesn't make contact with the thermal pad underneath and gets pushed in by the cooler. But ASUS have actually accounted for that and they include a rubber spacer which you can install underneath a single sided SSD to support it and stop it bending. It's not well-advertised but if you look in the accessories box it should be there, and there's a page in the manual showing where to put it. Alternatively you can just add another layer of thermal pad if you lose the spacer.
I remember when Dan's cases were fairly new on the market and super niche. Pretty cool to see them keep pushing SFF. I just got a Dan A4-H2O last year and love it.
Got a A4-H2O last year too, it's just such a great case. And maintenance is not that hard with the possibility to pull the bottom off, and the hole in the front. Still in love with it.
Do you have some need for the case to be half as tall or is all that hassle just to look cool? Footprint wise Its 4.5cm narrower and shorter than my Corsair 220T but also a hell of a lot harder to build in and you need compromised components?
In regards to the tamper sticker, Isopropyl alcohol works as a great solvent to temporarily make the sticker no longer sticky. Then once the isopropyl alcohol evaporates you can re-apply it like a new sticker. This trick also works for the rubber feet on many devices that manufacturers love to hide screws with.
@@Rov-Nihil it disolves it but it makes sense that if you just leave the alcool and glue on it instead of wiping it off it will get sticky again when the solvent evaporates
I'm waiting for a mass manufacturer to just bulk produce these for like $38. When a full ATX case can be sub-$40, there's no good reason (aside from small production run and "because you'll pay it") for a case with this little material to cost $200+. Heck, you don't even need to have it be pre-assembled, just ship with instructions and let the user do it. Cutting out steel panels doesn't cost that much, especially in bulk. For a small run, charge what you want I guess, but for this to be mainstream a big maker just need to make them in bulk and price accordingly. If "Bgears b-Vigor RGB Mid Tower with Front RGB Light and Side Tempered Glass (BG01879)" can be #17 on Amazon's best sellers for PC cases, for $38, and have tempered glass and lights, this SFX case can be done for $38. It doesn't even need a riser, so there's no excuse about minimum costs there.
Adam really came alive this video. I know he's been on camera quite a bit at this point, but something about this video reminded me of the days when hosts like Anthony and Alex were getting their video legs. When the host is comfortable and confident, and their personality really gets to shine through. Love to see it.
@Bootstrapper A lot of cases still ship with a Gen 3 riser. Gen 4 mobo, Gen 3 riser, and Gen 4 GPU can lead to a lot of instability and for first time builders it can be a hassle figuring out that's the problem.
I once had a helper “reorganize” the bolts I had laid out by subassembly on a work bench for a particularly heinous engine rebuild. If we had an HR department back then I would’ve been fired on the spot for the hateful language that spewed involuntarily from my mouth.
Yeah, I know this must have been recorded before the full story came out, but I'd have appreciated some mention such as "we are professionals, do not use an asus mobo at home".
He won't say anything about asus/amd because they went hard with amd "upgrades". And no showing it between bits in WAN show where fewer people will see is not really adressing the problem
I used to build only full tower cases, but recently realized (after longer than I'll admit) most of that space is going to waste because I'm not using a full tower as intended. My latest build was going to be in a micro case with an mATX motherboard and I almost went with the Jonsbo D31 in the mesh white ($90 and would be my first white pc build), which is very similar to the one used here, but ended up doing the HYTE Y60 (a mid tower) in snow white and absolutely love the build even more. I was very concerned with the thermals of an i9-12900K in the D31 even with an AIO liquid cooling and was a bit disappointed most micro cases didn't have a glass side panel.
The crew comments are some of my favorite bits bc no one else on production scales like this don’t let the people behind the scenes interact like these guys do
If you are thinking about recreating this build, i’d recommend not using an ASUS motherboard because the over current protection is faulty and the BIOS that fixes it voids the warranty. Watch Gamer Nexus’ video for more detail on the problem.
Warranty stickers are not only not enforceable, they're also illegal under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act in the US. The FTC has sent out warnings to companies about this and technically you could report any manufacturer for it.
As someone who has long haired pets who I value more than most people, I appreciate the desire to make sure your system is easy to clean. I have a calendar reminder to remind me every month to "peel" the fur off my computer's filters.
9:22 best course of action is to get IPA (isopropyl alcohol), use tweezers to get it off while adding ipa from the side and thel letting the ipa on the sticker evaporate. After a minute the glue will stick again and you can place it back. The trick is to be careful with the tweezers in the beginning not to damage the sticker at the very start
I really wish there would be a micro-ATX version of this. The motherboards are usually cheaper for the features. Provides an upgrade path for more RAM and other expandability. This would only require a small bump in height
I just built a minor variation on this (7700, rx7900 xt) in a Silverstone Alta G1M. It's a micro-ATX case, but assembled vertically (the 'rear' ports are on the top) so it's got a small footprint, and average mid-tower height. GPU ends up facing the front panel, so the LED-lit fans on mine shine through the front mesh. As a bonus it supports normal dual-tower air coolers, so no need for water or radiators.
@@davidskidmore3442 I've seen the Alta too. It is so close to being great too. But I don't like the look of it and like the open top due to liquid spills. Where I could put the C4-SFX upright in the same position as the Alta to close of the top
12:06 linus mentions some cables i brought up in 2 or 3 videos that would help every sigle person that uses the nr200p max and this motherboard. It is the only way you can have sata drives in that case.
Using a Dan A4-H20 with a 5800X3D and so many features it included were just as nice as this. And I can see so many more new improvements between that case and this newer one. Even if ITX is charged at a premium it is amazing to just see it all fit and work while remaining quiet.
The Meshroom does have the ability to adjust the space needed for the gpu so the removal of the gpu shroud wasn't necessary. If you use an AIO with the lcd, the mounting position of the radiator blocks it's view and renders it useless. Case does have a leg up on the FormD T1 with the size of the gpus you can put in it.
Love the build... and the unconscious screwdriver flip at 2:45... he didn't drop it! Also, I cringed when Linus brushed those screws aside. Glad their was a lesson to be learned there. Respect another's workspace, Linus!
19:07. another reason I don´t want to have to hope that the pieces will fit in the case. This feels like one of them cases that have a short list of kits that will fit in it and if you want to change a piece down the line in a few years good luck finding anything that will fit.
I've had an A4 since 2018 and I've been really happy with it. The build experience was like you're describing here, it gets out of the way and you kinda forget you're doing a small form factor build. It just goes together really nice and easy.
You should check out another interesting case: Mechanic Master C28. At 17.9L it's one of the smallest cases that supports both micro-atx mobo and atx psu at the same time. Just like the dancase in this video, nearly all of its panels can be unscrewed for easier building. It supports 240mm AIO or an air cooler up to 162mm. It also supports a 335mm graphics card. I got mine from aliexpress last year and it was a very fun build, especially squeezing in my giant msi rx 6950xt gaming x trio.
@@johnuzoka6124 thanks for letting me know! i edited my comment so it just says "one of the smallest" since yours is smaller. for my purposes, i still prefer the c28 because it can fit taller air coolers and my gpu is 325mm so wouldnt fit in the zzaw c2.
@@ericchen5862 unless im mistaken, m1evo is an itx case. the reason i suggested c28 is because it fits all regular micro-atx parts so you dont need to pay extra or lose functionality for itx/sfx parts
I mean, I'm so OCD that I cut & re-soldered a bunch of cables and heat shrunk them on the back of my current rig, just so as to get the cable management spot on; also heat shrunk around the motherboard headers to hide coloured wires etc so they're invisible. I LOVE this video for so many reasons though, they're having genuine fun working it out, I used to work in the games industry and would build the latest, smallest build for trade shows or press demo tours of our games etc (I learned this the first time I went to E3 and had to strip a midi tower down, including it's PSU going through customs). So this just brings back SO many happy memories.
I admire the small case sitting here looking at the nv7 under my desk that couldn't fit on my desk without blocking my 8 inch studio speakers. That little case would perfectly fit in between my screen and my speakers. I salute you!
Watching you work in that case definitely helps highlight the ease of building in the more standard ATX options. Otherwise FormD and many other SFF look great. Only thing I wish is more would have a handle for portability.
I really like these small form factor builds. I've never built a small form factor myself though...I usually build in mid or full tower cases. Could you guys do a video on how you go about selecting components for a small form factor build and ensuring that everything will fit in the case (theoretically)?
Pretty straight forward honestly, most ITX cases only fit SFX PSU, ITX motherboards, and the showcase on the website will tell you what size cooling and fans will fit. Oh, and also consider the GPU won't always fit for a three-fan or higher-end GPU. There is virtually no way to make a blanketed approach to ITX as each company deals with it differently.
@@califa213239 Also almost all product listings - especially on the manufacturer's website - will give dimensions. Case manufactures, esp in SFF cases, will usually give max length/height/width dimensions for GPU slots. I still try to undershoot a tiny bit so I don't have to do like they did in this video and partially disassemble the case.
did something similar to an NR200P build I did a few years back, I had a spare bottom panel from another nr200 so I flipped the bottom panel with the feet to the top then flipped the whole PC over, put the second bottom panel on the other side and had dual radiators in that tiny thing. Also I cut the back panel out(right above the motherboard) so it fit a 120mm fan right above the mobo
One day, I'm going to make a SFF build with just an APU. Love to see innovation in the space. Just like I love seeing episodes with Adam! He knows what he's doing, and isn't camera shy. Great match for Linus.
I have the ncase m1 which is a very similar size. Going to a LAN party I could just put the computer in my backpack with my keyboard and cables which was super convenient. SFF is a hassle to maintain but well worth it
I'm running a small form factor system and I thought my Formd T1 was my ultimate case, but this one is just so good. I was settled for keeping my current rig for the next year or two but this is kind of lighting a fire in me to make another build now.
Same for me xD Probably it might not have the build quality of a T1, but i like the layout and I wonder if you could go watercooled with two rads, like in a NR200 but smaller…
@@xXRusheR90Xx The problem with the T1 is I just didn't anticipate GPU's becoming quite as huge as they have. I mean, a 4090 is doable with a custom loop but the T1 has kind of reached its limit. Which is a shame because I like it so much.
LINUS @11:56 But what does the switch do? How could you do this to us? Who do I send my complaint to? What kind of serial killer does that kind us cut. Leaving us hanging!
Only issue i've seen with these cases are temps... and not CPU or GPU but the M.2 the heat from the GPU fries the m.2.. i have no idea why to this day they still put the m.2 right behind the gpu where all the heat comes off...
Small is nice (even in a big house) - built a 10 liter desktop using Lian Li PC-Q03B many years ago - still alive with upgraded SSD and now a small RTX 2060 card - also the NR200 chassi is (was?) a little bigger at 18 liters and very flexible but most recently built a 33 liter machine using Asus Prime AP201 chassi (RTX 4070, Ryzen 5900X, 4 memory modules) and its so much more convenient with a little more room for everything inside - including more air 😊
Biggest change I've made with my last 2 builds is actually getting bigger, open, full-tower cases. Makes your thermals never become an issue again. More space, more airflow, quieter fans for a cooler system.
I love my hulking beast that required me to source a desk with a slot big enough to fit it (barely), but it's still really cool to see these smaller form factors being fleshed out and developed. I'm a big case for life stan, but this is great for my smaller case brethren!
I like ITX, but I also like my Huskies, and the 2 don't mix when you have to clean the PC regular due to fluff and dust. I did it for my gaming PCs for a few years, 3770K, 4670K, 4790K, 6700K and "recently" my oid 9900K 2080ti when I upgraded to 10900K/3080ti, but even with replacing cases as I went (Coolermaster Elite 130, Bitfenix prodigy x2, Aerocool DS Cube, Silverstone RVZ01 and RVZ03 for the 9900K) the only thing that seemed to make sense was get a bigger case which made it seem more sense to just go ATX for the same price with more features in terms of the mobo and case. I do have ITX for HTPC mind you and Retro PCs (I used the 3770K and 980ti in the Elite 130 for my XP Pc and picked up a Shuttle XPC along with a 3.2GHz P4 and 9800 Pro for 98SE (with a DVI to HDMI adapter) as with the retro PCs, it just makes sense to keep them small as then they won't be in the way and get put away instead of being bulky and in the way and then to big to be worth getting back out once put away (which is the fate of most people I knows 98/DOS retro PCs). I do swear by building an ITX HTPC in the InWin BQ656 though, yeah its cramped but its cheap and has all the extras that may be handy like a slim optical bay (for the DVDs when the internet is down) and card reader for when that relative wants to show you pictures you don't want to see and you tell them you aren't on facebook or any other social media :D).
Fractal Design Ridge is still my favorite bc the amount of desk real estate it takes up is absolutely miniscule and you can get similar thermals. Maintenance is also easier bc everything is in its own chamber. Plus it just looks classy.
I've used White Cooler Master NR200 for my build. It's 18.25L case, looks nice and clean on my desk. But man, it fits Arctic liquid freezer II 280 AIO (the radiator thickness is 35mm, regular AIOs has 25mm), 4080 FE, R9 5950X (I built it before Ryzen 7000 series has come out). It's almost silent, idle CPU temp is 33 degrees Celsius, overclocked 100% load about 81. Without overclocking 100% load never above 71 no matter for how long.
The NH-D12L is a good cooler, I got one and it cools the 5800X3D well. Absolutely a great option for SFF cases like this. I'm just a bit worried about the air flow since the way the D9L and D12L mount it won't be able to draw air in directly from the outside in this case (or probably any SFF case) the way a top flow cooler or liquid cooling would.
I'd still go with larger cases with tempered glass panels. For one thing, - they are a joy to assemble, very easy to clean and maintain, have dust filters, you can still have your USB3/USB C ports on the top of the case, and they look much nicer, especially if you intend to put RGB fans etc. in them. And you're not going to have a "Godda&^t!!" moment when you've spent so much time assembling your case but your mobo won't post as you push the power switch. Now I honestly don't know what advantage do smaller cases have unless you intend them to be portable or have just moved into a condo the size of a closet in the middle of London. But even then you should just go with a PC imbedded in your tiny desk.
I'm looking at the background throughout this video and was wondering if you guys can do a thorough run down of how you guys manage and organize all of the tools, computer components, going through your thought process when you do the layout, what works and what doesnt, which organizing storage containers you guys used and why you guys stuck with what you got now. I have so much computer tools, components to store Ive been looking on ideas for the past couple years but havent found anything usabale.
some things never change. a lot of these parts are being sold by scalpers now right after the vid went up. i saw that psu a couple days ago, now it is about 400 on amazon from a 3rd party. XD good vid, also good budget itx case imo is the qbx by cougar
that's hilarious bro, i have a cougar mx200 modified it myself, cut a piece of plexiglass and put it on the side and put some cheap lights in it. rx580 8gb, i7-4790, 24gb ddr3, 700w psu, h97m pro 4 mobo, the whole damn build was $550.00, looks awesome and rocks 2023 games. people fr just be silly with this stuff now, me just sittin and smh lol.
My trick for warranty stickers is to take the bad boy out, and cut out a new sticker using a blank thermal shipping label and an xacto knife. Its brand new adhesive so sticks great, works everytime
Not gonna lie, as cool as SFF is I'd not be willing to deal with the hassles of building them and then worry about any repairs. At least not for a daily driver. ATX mid tower still wins to me
Just get a Sama IM01 or IM02 case. It's literally NR200 but has perfect support for both ATX PSUs and mATX motherboards, making the total build cost a lot cheaper too. It's only a tad taller than NR200 to support the mATX motherboards and the 4-slot cards, compared to NR200's measly 3-slot design.
mATX is fantastic as well. I have an all AMD build (7700 and 7900XT) in Asus AP201, and it's amazing. Building in it was easy and fun, it has great cooling and compatibility, is significantly smaller than ATX tower, components aren't hideously expensive.
I get the appeal for small form factor...but my every-ten-years-self-build-gaming-rig Shall Always Be A Full Tower With Glass Panel. The room to move about while building the thing is totally worth it. Otherwise the beauty sits in a single place for virtually it's entire lifetime. The few times I need to update it...again I have super tons of room to move around.
Quick technical correction about the board standoffs being riveted.. Also, my credentials: I'm a senior level mechanical engineer for a technology company where I design image processing computers, and most of design work is sheet metal design... (My YT profile pic is from 2010... Please ignore lol) Sheet metal parts can be riveted together, but fasteners / hardware such as standoffs, nuts, keyhole guides (keys), spacers, studs, etc are actually 'self-clinching' fasteners. These fasteners have a special geometry at the base which is larger than the hole in the sheetmetal. Using a hydraulic press they are forced into the smaller mounting hole. This causes the base of the fastener to mushroom out a bit and curl into the sheet metal like little hooks. The high pressure from the press allows the metals to flow together even though it's at room temperature. The result is a very precise, and incredibly strong connection for a fastener into thin sheets of metal - while also being significantly less expensive than a weld or other manufacturing techniques. The 'Apple' of self-clinching fasteners (which all my designs use) is Penn Engineering with their PEM line fasteners. It's one of those companies you've never heard of - but you have have hundreds of their products in your house, quietly hidden in your daily household items that contain sheet metal parts. Thanks for coming to my TED talk :)
Great video showing off the DanCase. You two are hilarious together. Fun just to watch all the good natured banter. Linus, you are a bit mischievous 😆 Keep it up.
8:07 When I was building a PC with this MB, the SSD *BENT* on me too. So that is quite a theme here, I supose. And if I remember it correctly, *BOTH* SSDs *BENT*. So, if anyone interested in this MB is reading this, I would strongly suggest an SSD with an included heatsink. Or adding a custom heatsink to your SSD, that will "wrap it" up to re-enforce it from all sides. Not to mention, it, most likely, will look and perform waaay better. But *only for the top SSD*, that is. You can't really do anything about the bottom one. Unless you can get really creative, I guess.

No lie, EVGA is one of the easiest companies ever to work with, and their CS has always been first class when I've had to work with them.
XFX honored the warranty too. They even went as far as to offer Waterblock installation for the AMD Vega cards, U pay for shipping.
Not like they are dead. They just choose to not to stay with the unseasonable

The fact that you don't need a riser cable makes a huge difference to me. Those end up causing so many issues in real world use cases
such as?
@Bootstrapper A lot of cases still ship with a Gen 3 riser. Gen 4 mobo, Gen 3 riser, and Gen 4 GPU can lead to a lot of instability and for first time builders it can be a hassle figuring out that's the problem.
@@lambyi And it is just another thing to plug in, and another point of failure. Not having one is probably better just for simplicity's sake
Wasn't it NZXT who had fire starting risers?
Also, hey Z0eff 👋
Got a Gen4 GPU, Gen3 Riser and Gen4 Mobo and got No Problems at all🤷🏻

Ah yes, an Asus motherboard with an X3D. Definitely the most stable of gaming rigs in the modern day.
rn with the 1410 bios should be safe, you lose OC functions and you are capped to 1.3v but at least it doesn't void the warranty anymore
@@Darkmaniak86 the cap doesnt work lol
This was also most likely filmed way before the news was out
Was thinking the same thing

As a mechanic I laughed so hard when linus swept the screws to the side if you do that in a shop you might get hurt
I once had a helper “reorganize” the bolts I had laid out by subassembly on a work bench for a particularly heinous engine rebuild. If we had an HR department back then I would’ve been fired on the spot for the hateful language that spewed involuntarily from my mouth.
I remember when there were only 3 screw types in PCs and you could buy mixed bags of spares.
This explains why I always have so many screws left over
Good thing you remembered the segways. Don't wanna miss out on commercials inside the 21 minute commercial.

Yeah, I know this must have been recorded before the full story came out, but I'd have appreciated some mention such as "we are professionals, do not use an asus mobo at home".
He won't say anything about asus/amd because they went hard with amd "upgrades". And no showing it between bits in WAN show where fewer people will see is not really adressing the problem
@@SkullHandy yeah, because when they were doing intel upgrades they NEVER said anything bad about intel cpus and their wattage and temps, right?
Pre-recorded.
This has the same energy as Adam's tech upgrade. Love it
nah his gf/wife brings more chaos than this
I used to build only full tower cases, but recently realized (after longer than I'll admit) most of that space is going to waste because I'm not using a full tower as intended. My latest build was going to be in a micro case with an mATX motherboard and I almost went with the Jonsbo D31 in the mesh white ($90 and would be my first white pc build), which is very similar to the one used here, but ended up doing the HYTE Y60 (a mid tower) in snow white and absolutely love the build even more. I was very concerned with the thermals of an i9-12900K in the D31 even with an AIO liquid cooling and was a bit disappointed most micro cases didn't have a glass side panel.
At the rate Nvidia is increasing the size of their GPUs, I’m worried that even this case will become useless in a few years.
Amd,intel?

I love inverted cases. So hard to find and honestly that's an injustice. Thankful for smart case designers like this.
I bought the O11D Evo literally a few hours ago just because i want a white inverted case
I had an old Lian-Li PC-V1000 case that did something like this. Loved it.
If you are thinking about recreating this build, i’d recommend not using an ASUS motherboard because the over current protection is faulty and the BIOS that fixes it voids the warranty. Watch Gamer Nexus’ video for more detail on the problem.
That and for some reason Asus insists on making their itx rear io shrouds extend past the itx form factor.
"BIOS that fixes it voids the warranty."
False.
The genuine excitement in how awesome the engineering must've been to design that case was awesome to watch
Warranty stickers are not only not enforceable, they're also illegal under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act in the US. The FTC has sent out warnings to companies about this and technically you could report any manufacturer for it.
Nothing gets me going like SFF cases! Love seeing you guys covering this on the channel! More please!
SO YOU COOMED TO THIS VIDEO???
As someone who has long haired pets who I value more than most people, I appreciate the desire to make sure your system is easy to clean. I have a calendar reminder to remind me every month to "peel" the fur off my computer's filters.
9:22 best course of action is to get IPA (isopropyl alcohol), use tweezers to get it off while adding ipa from the side and thel letting the ipa on the sticker evaporate. After a minute the glue will stick again and you can place it back. The trick is to be careful with the tweezers in the beginning not to damage the sticker at the very start
I really wish there would be a micro-ATX version of this. The motherboards are usually cheaper for the features. Provides an upgrade path for more RAM and other expandability. This would only require a small bump in height
Dan Case has the A4-mATX in development which is basically a slightly larger version of this. But who knows when/if they release it
I just built a minor variation on this (7700, rx7900 xt) in a Silverstone Alta G1M. It's a micro-ATX case, but assembled vertically (the 'rear' ports are on the top) so it's got a small footprint, and average mid-tower height. GPU ends up facing the front panel, so the LED-lit fans on mine shine through the front mesh. As a bonus it supports normal dual-tower air coolers, so no need for water or radiators.
@@davidskidmore3442 I've seen the Alta too. It is so close to being great too. But I don't like the look of it and like the open top due to liquid spills. Where I could put the C4-SFX upright in the same position as the Alta to close of the top
10:34 Not only Andrew, but the entire island of Ireland has just facepalmed and blacklisted Adam from ever coming here.
12:06 linus mentions some cables i brought up in 2 or 3 videos that would help every sigle person that uses the nr200p max and this motherboard. It is the only way you can have sata drives in that case.
I wish Fractal would make a micro ATX version of the North.
The normal North is quite big.
@@initial_kd it’s still big for an SFF lover like me… I also would love an ITX or mATX variant!
@Initial_KD mesh side panel is the best version you can mount an aio on the side.
They did it for the Torrent, I bet they'll come up with smaller North variants soon (maybe Computex?).
MicroATX is the read headed step child. It isn't popular enough to warrant much effort on the part of motherboard or case manufacturers.
@@christopherjames9843 then why does Fractal make a MATX version of pretty much every case they make?
I've recently build my rig in the Dan-A4 H2O and I am still impressed by the quality and overall concept of their cases.
Linus: "Why do you want to choke a horse??"
Because it is a night-mare
The fact this case wasn't restocked is sucha a damn shame
Who was aware that Dan from LTT had a sidehustle in designing PC cases as well?
It represents his genius pretty well tbh.
not the same dan. the dan case is from a german forum member of computerbase
@@perun I guess this is what they say r/wooosh is for?
Using a Dan A4-H20 with a 5800X3D and so many features it included were just as nice as this. And I can see so many more new improvements between that case and this newer one. Even if ITX is charged at a premium it is amazing to just see it all fit and work while remaining quiet.
The Meshroom does have the ability to adjust the space needed for the gpu so the removal of the gpu shroud wasn't necessary. If you use an AIO with the lcd, the mounting position of the radiator blocks it's view and renders it useless. Case does have a leg up on the FormD T1 with the size of the gpus you can put in it.
Love the build... and the unconscious screwdriver flip at 2:45... he didn't drop it! Also, I cringed when Linus brushed those screws aside. Glad their was a lesson to be learned there. Respect another's workspace, Linus!
It was a pretty clean flip too.
@bruh I think he mighta put a few points inta int and tech... just a few...
Love the Summit Ice t-shirt. Never forget ✊
19:07.
another reason I don´t want to have to hope that the pieces will fit in the case.
This feels like one of them cases that have a short list of kits that will fit in it and if you want to change a piece down the line in a few years good luck finding anything that will fit.
I've had an A4 since 2018 and I've been really happy with it. The build experience was like you're describing here, it gets out of the way and you kinda forget you're doing a small form factor build. It just goes together really nice and easy.
You should check out another interesting case: Mechanic Master C28.
At 17.9L it's one of the smallest cases that supports both micro-atx mobo and atx psu at the same time. Just like the dancase in this video, nearly all of its panels can be unscrewed for easier building. It supports 240mm AIO or an air cooler up to 162mm. It also supports a 335mm graphics card.
I got mine from aliexpress last year and it was a very fun build, especially squeezing in my giant msi rx 6950xt gaming x trio.
wait til the m1evo comes out lol
Nah I have the ZZAW C2 case and it supports MATX mobo + ATX PSU at the same time. And GPU length upto 323mm and the case is 13.7L total
@@johnuzoka6124 thanks for letting me know! i edited my comment so it just says "one of the smallest" since yours is smaller. for my purposes, i still prefer the c28 because it can fit taller air coolers and my gpu is 325mm so wouldnt fit in the zzaw c2.
@@ericchen5862 unless im mistaken, m1evo is an itx case. the reason i suggested c28 is because it fits all regular micro-atx parts so you dont need to pay extra or lose functionality for itx/sfx parts
@@9php also theres the SAMA IM01/Techware Fusion
It's 21L with more compatibility compared to zzaw c2 but I'm not sure of the cooler/GPU allowance
I mean, I'm so OCD that I cut & re-soldered a bunch of cables and heat shrunk them on the back of my current rig, just so as to get the cable management spot on; also heat shrunk around the motherboard headers to hide coloured wires etc so they're invisible. I LOVE this video for so many reasons though, they're having genuine fun working it out, I used to work in the games industry and would build the latest, smallest build for trade shows or press demo tours of our games etc (I learned this the first time I went to E3 and had to strip a midi tower down, including it's PSU going through customs). So this just brings back SO many happy memories.
I freakin love Mini-ITX, so compact and unique, it genuinely helps with space constraints and rare situations when I need to move it around :D
Your god damn right. Hell yeah.
i prefer mini-DTX because its just as compact but you can fit more stuff onto it.
He definitely should have gone with a different mobo vendor though
Did one for the wife. Never regretted it.
ITX is fun for seasoned PC building enthusiasts, it is where most of the progress in case design/layout/innovation happens :)
I love the dynamic that Linus and Dan have.
Father and son energy
Dan? That's Adam.
I admire the small case sitting here looking at the nv7 under my desk that couldn't fit on my desk without blocking my 8 inch studio speakers. That little case would perfectly fit in between my screen and my speakers. I salute you!
Watching you work in that case definitely helps highlight the ease of building in the more standard ATX options. Otherwise FormD and many other SFF look great. Only thing I wish is more would have a handle for portability.
I really like these small form factor builds. I've never built a small form factor myself though...I usually build in mid or full tower cases. Could you guys do a video on how you go about selecting components for a small form factor build and ensuring that everything will fit in the case (theoretically)?
Pretty straight forward honestly, most ITX cases only fit SFX PSU, ITX motherboards, and the showcase on the website will tell you what size cooling and fans will fit. Oh, and also consider the GPU won't always fit for a three-fan or higher-end GPU. There is virtually no way to make a blanketed approach to ITX as each company deals with it differently.
@@califa213239 Also almost all product listings - especially on the manufacturer's website - will give dimensions. Case manufactures, esp in SFF cases, will usually give max length/height/width dimensions for GPU slots. I still try to undershoot a tiny bit so I don't have to do like they did in this video and partially disassemble the case.
did something similar to an NR200P build I did a few years back, I had a spare bottom panel from another nr200 so I flipped the bottom panel with the feet to the top then flipped the whole PC over, put the second bottom panel on the other side and had dual radiators in that tiny thing. Also I cut the back panel out(right above the motherboard) so it fit a 120mm fan right above the mobo
One day, I'm going to make a SFF build with just an APU. Love to see innovation in the space. Just like I love seeing episodes with Adam! He knows what he's doing, and isn't camera shy. Great match for Linus.
I have the ncase m1 which is a very similar size. Going to a LAN party I could just put the computer in my backpack with my keyboard and cables which was super convenient. SFF is a hassle to maintain but well worth it
Linus; Big PC Cases are DEAD to me
Also Linus; Builds literal server racks of computers for home use.
I can only imagine the horror on that poor lad's face when he said to scrape the foam off a Guinness. smfh.
I'm running a small form factor system and I thought my Formd T1 was my ultimate case, but this one is just so good. I was settled for keeping my current rig for the next year or two but this is kind of lighting a fire in me to make another build now.
Same for me xD
Probably it might not have the build quality of a T1, but i like the layout and I wonder if you could go watercooled with two rads, like in a NR200 but smaller…
@@xXRusheR90Xx The problem with the T1 is I just didn't anticipate GPU's becoming quite as huge as they have. I mean, a 4090 is doable with a custom loop but the T1 has kind of reached its limit. Which is a shame because I like it so much.
@16:00 You can fit an ATX motherboard and a Full length GPU in the meshroom S case.
SUMMIT ICE. never forget
the more linus videos you watch the more brute force you use in your builds
LINUS @11:56 But what does the switch do? How could you do this to us? Who do I send my complaint to? What kind of serial killer does that kind us cut. Leaving us hanging!
guessing this was recorded before asus boards blew up every X3D cpu
I've been using Lian Li O11 Air Mini for a while now and it's one of the most aesthetically-pleasing and fun cases to build
I am actually going for that for my next build. Looks very fun and pleasing and cool (?)
Me too bro!
It's not as small as those cases, but it's a damn pleasure to work in
Only issue i've seen with these cases are temps... and not CPU or GPU but the M.2 the heat from the GPU fries the m.2.. i have no idea why to this day they still put the m.2 right behind the gpu where all the heat comes off...
I love Adam and Linus videos. The chaotic energy is unmatched
Now you should compare mid 2000s case against modern pc cases and see if pc cases improved over the years
Small is nice (even in a big house) - built a 10 liter desktop using Lian Li PC-Q03B many years ago - still alive with upgraded SSD and now a small RTX 2060 card - also the NR200 chassi is (was?) a little bigger at 18 liters and very flexible but most recently built a 33 liter machine using Asus Prime AP201 chassi (RTX 4070, Ryzen 5900X, 4 memory modules) and its so much more convenient with a little more room for everything inside - including more air 😊
Biggest change I've made with my last 2 builds is actually getting bigger, open, full-tower cases. Makes your thermals never become an issue again. More space, more airflow, quieter fans for a cooler system.
Yes but some of us are working with limited desk space. Basically the largest I can do is microatx
@@MarkoVuckovic32 put it on the ground then
@@elevul yeah, that's an option but most cases nowadays have a window so if I put it on the ground, I can't see inside.

Fractal Meshify 2XL gang !
I love my hulking beast that required me to source a desk with a slot big enough to fit it (barely), but it's still really cool to see these smaller form factors being fleshed out and developed.
I'm a big case for life stan, but this is great for my smaller case brethren!
I like ITX, but I also like my Huskies, and the 2 don't mix when you have to clean the PC regular due to fluff and dust. I did it for my gaming PCs for a few years, 3770K, 4670K, 4790K, 6700K and "recently" my oid 9900K 2080ti when I upgraded to 10900K/3080ti, but even with replacing cases as I went (Coolermaster Elite 130, Bitfenix prodigy x2, Aerocool DS Cube, Silverstone RVZ01 and RVZ03 for the 9900K) the only thing that seemed to make sense was get a bigger case which made it seem more sense to just go ATX for the same price with more features in terms of the mobo and case. I do have ITX for HTPC mind you and Retro PCs (I used the 3770K and 980ti in the Elite 130 for my XP Pc and picked up a Shuttle XPC along with a 3.2GHz P4 and 9800 Pro for 98SE (with a DVI to HDMI adapter) as with the retro PCs, it just makes sense to keep them small as then they won't be in the way and get put away instead of being bulky and in the way and then to big to be worth getting back out once put away (which is the fate of most people I knows 98/DOS retro PCs).
I do swear by building an ITX HTPC in the InWin BQ656 though, yeah its cramped but its cheap and has all the extras that may be handy like a slim optical bay (for the DVDs when the internet is down) and card reader for when that relative wants to show you pictures you don't want to see and you tell them you aren't on facebook or any other social media :D).
Fractal Design Ridge is still my favorite bc the amount of desk real estate it takes up is absolutely miniscule and you can get similar thermals. Maintenance is also easier bc everything is in its own chamber. Plus it just looks classy.
i absolutely love the terras aesthetic and I wish I could build in it, but the dealbreaker for me personally is that it doesnt support radiators :/
Keep a backup of the old BIOS just in case you blow the CPU as the latest BIOS void's your warranty.
I've used White Cooler Master NR200 for my build. It's 18.25L case, looks nice and clean on my desk. But man, it fits Arctic liquid freezer II 280 AIO (the radiator thickness is 35mm, regular AIOs has 25mm), 4080 FE, R9 5950X (I built it before Ryzen 7000 series has come out). It's almost silent, idle CPU temp is 33 degrees Celsius, overclocked 100% load about 81. Without overclocking 100% load never above 71 no matter for how long.
I've loved Adam on screen since his AMD upgrade, love seeing him on camera with Linus.
Hi Linus I know you read comments, Just want to say that your content drives me to strive to do better everyday
The NH-D12L is a good cooler, I got one and it cools the 5800X3D well. Absolutely a great option for SFF cases like this. I'm just a bit worried about the air flow since the way the D9L and D12L mount it won't be able to draw air in directly from the outside in this case (or probably any SFF case) the way a top flow cooler or liquid cooling would.
Linus plays his part so well. Love Adam as well. Can't wait to see more of him.
0:13 Fire the editor for not using a rectangular tick box.
@@tzuyd they did, a square is a rectangle
I'd still go with larger cases with tempered glass panels. For one thing, - they are a joy to assemble, very easy to clean and maintain, have dust filters, you can still have your USB3/USB C ports on the top of the case, and they look much nicer, especially if you intend to put RGB fans etc. in them. And you're not going to have a "Godda&^t!!" moment when you've spent so much time assembling your case but your mobo won't post as you push the power switch. Now I honestly don't know what advantage do smaller cases have unless you intend them to be portable or have just moved into a condo the size of a closet in the middle of London. But even then you should just go with a PC imbedded in your tiny desk.

Not gonna lie, as cool as SFF is
I'd not be willing to deal with the hassles of building them and then worry about any repairs. At least not for a daily driver.
ATX mid tower still wins to me
Just get a Sama IM01 or IM02 case. It's literally NR200 but has perfect support for both ATX PSUs and mATX motherboards, making the total build cost a lot cheaper too. It's only a tad taller than NR200 to support the mATX motherboards and the 4-slot cards, compared to NR200's measly 3-slot design.
Think about it this way: hassles are just fun challenges for SFF enthusiasts.
If you’re not disabled there is nothing to worry. It is barley harder than a regular pc and even as a first time build not that hard.
mATX is fantastic as well.
I have an all AMD build (7700 and 7900XT) in Asus AP201, and it's amazing. Building in it was easy and fun, it has great cooling and compatibility, is significantly smaller than ATX tower, components aren't hideously expensive.
@@kse617 I get it
Here's the thing tho
I'm not an SFF enthusiast, so that hassle is a red flag to me

I get the appeal for small form factor...but my every-ten-years-self-build-gaming-rig Shall Always Be A Full Tower With Glass Panel. The room to move about while building the thing is totally worth it. Otherwise the beauty sits in a single place for virtually it's entire lifetime. The few times I need to update it...again I have super tons of room to move around.

Quick technical correction about the board standoffs being riveted..
Also, my credentials:
I'm a senior level mechanical engineer for a technology company where I design image processing computers, and most of design work is sheet metal design... (My YT profile pic is from 2010... Please ignore lol)
Sheet metal parts can be riveted together, but fasteners / hardware such as standoffs, nuts, keyhole guides (keys), spacers, studs, etc are actually 'self-clinching' fasteners. These fasteners have a special geometry at the base which is larger than the hole in the sheetmetal. Using a hydraulic press they are forced into the smaller mounting hole. This causes the base of the fastener to mushroom out a bit and curl into the sheet metal like little hooks.
The high pressure from the press allows the metals to flow together even though it's at room temperature. The result is a very precise, and incredibly strong connection for a fastener into thin sheets of metal - while also being significantly less expensive than a weld or other manufacturing techniques.
The 'Apple' of self-clinching fasteners (which all my designs use) is Penn Engineering with their PEM line fasteners. It's one of those companies you've never heard of - but you have have hundreds of their products in your house, quietly hidden in your daily household items that contain sheet metal parts.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk :)

8:07 When I was building a PC with this MB, the SSD *BENT* on me too. So that is quite a theme here, I supose.
And if I remember it correctly, *BOTH* SSDs *BENT*.
So, if anyone interested in this MB is reading this, I would strongly suggest an SSD with an included heatsink. Or adding a custom heatsink to your SSD, that will "wrap it" up to re-enforce it from all sides. Not to mention, it, most likely, will look and perform waaay better. But *only for the top SSD*, that is. You can't really do anything about the bottom one. Unless you can get really creative, I guess.
