      There are some custom made parts, water-cooling of GPU for example. I guess they could easily made it into standard components with compromises in thermals, but then the case would be called bad and also they wouldn't make money.

    3:02 Do not forget Skytech prebuilds. They have good cable management and no bloatware installed. Skytech has the best reviews on Newegg out of the prebuilds. Comes with keyboard and mouse. I suggested this brand to my ex-Wife two Christmas's ago and she bought the lowest tier at the time and is very happy with the PC. Her budget was $2000CN, the PC was on sale for $799CN delivered, and she bought a ASUS 27" 144Hz 1080p monitor, which the 2600/RX580 drives without a hitch, and stayed at $1200CN. She was very happy and I am impressed.

    In the DIY build comparison, did you use an AIO cooled card? Technically, that’s what the A100 has, minus the fans that may be included.

    Demetre, quick Question: I have the i165 and love it. Was thinking about adding the i200 when it's released. Do you think the heat of the new i9-10900 chip will be similar to the i9 9900k, or will the i200 likely suffer the same fate as the a100 Ryzen and have much increased fan noise? Any thoughts would be great.

If possible, I'd swap out the fans for some Noctua Chromax fans but it looks like you would have to jerry rig mounting slim 120mm fans on the rads to improve cooling.

    So you still give the Ryzen version of these beasts the gold standard? Do the temps really get that scary? Coming from a guy who (when he finds the time) tends to spend several hours playing games, I'd be very worried about my a100 getting too hot. Especially since they're over $3000, which isn't complaining considering the prices of these components individually add up to nearly the same so you're paying for the professional build along with the innovative design of the case (which both things i'm 100% fine with). I have desperately wanted one of these for almost 3 years now... I think I'm finally ready to take the plunge but I don't want to buy an old school Asus laptop in terms of heat output (frying eggs and what not).
    Also I was planning on buying the 3900x model... Since it doesn't seem there's a massive jump in power from the 3900 and 3950, but there's a large chunk of change added to the pricetag.

    I wish companies would design more vertical oriented itx cases. I like the case, and would like to build a computer in it, but they don't sell the case by itself.

    What x570 ITX motherboards have internal usb c headers? I haven’t seen any. The B550 boards that are coming out have them but I never saw any x570 boards that have them.

    1:06 "Tasteful RGB stips that you should always set to one colour, you're not a savage." 😂
    Edit: That Price tag.😲 (I have a similar system, but with a 5700xt and I'm sure I didn't pay anywhere near to that price, I hope...)
    It would be interesting to see how it performs with a better fan (that fan really lets the system down). The size is impressive, although I wonder if they could have made the system even quieter buy having fans on the radiator providing more airflow with less RPM and buried further into the system to further reduce the noise. I do reckon you could do a similar system on air (build around the high-end heatsink of someone like Noctua or bequiet)

    Swap in an ML140 Pro, 2500 RPM and runs quieter than the regular ML they include.

    How hard is it for a big manufacturer to make a proper 10L sff case?

    I'm honestly surprised at the cooling performance of the radiator on the 3950x. I had one cooled on a single fan 92mm tower cooler, and got significantly better temps than they are here. Still neat, always liked the Corsair One designs even if they are super overpriced.
