Hello, you’re back

fading thicket
#

she has returned

wind spire
#

Wait a second… you actually made lists?!?

#

Holy shit it’s a miracle

#

I wouldn’t recommend 4 sticks of DDR5, it’s unstable. I doubt you’d even get close to using all 96gb of ram

#

Oh okay

#

Okay, You’d have to run the sticks at reduced speeds btw, so theres no point getting anything other than the cheapest 2x48gb kits

dusk rapids
#

It does

#

Very much

#

Idk why you would need 96gb

cinder agate
#

Bc Michael is going intel. More chance 4 sticks will run stable on a higher clock on intel than on AMD

west hornet
#

7950x3d?

dusk rapids
#

DDR5 feels like shite

west hornet
#

oh workstation

dusk rapids
#

It literally has a negligible benefit to ddr4,but with more instability

wind spire
dusk rapids
#

I still use ddr4 in my celery laptop

west hornet
#

we love celeron

wind spire
#

But yeah the DDR5 would probably be running at DDR4 speeds with 4 sticks

dusk rapids
#

Ddr4*

#

Ddr3*

#

Just go 128gb of ddr4

#

And das it

#

Simple as fuck

#

7950x3d,matrix 4090

#

MSI expensive af mobo

#

128gb of RGB ddr4

wind spire
dusk rapids
#

Yeah

wind spire
#

Okay

#

I think dreams wants itx so…

dusk rapids
#

And an RMx shift 1600w

#

Add the current meta case (lianli 011 variant)

#

And enjoy

#

Oh ye forgot

#

Buy 14900k

#

It got released recently IIRC

wind spire
#

Its crap though

#

Like 3% increase over 13900K

dusk rapids
#

Ok and

wind spire
#

Very sad

dusk rapids
#

Dreams is already splurging

wind spire
#

Intel dropped the ball

dusk rapids
#

Ok then 2x48gb of 7950x3d

wind spire
#

13900KS will probably oc high enough to beat it

dusk rapids
#

Or that

#

With an z73 to cool it

#

011d mini

#

Because current trend

#

@untold kelp

wind spire
#

O11d mini sucks

#

It’s atx mid tower aswell

#

Also dream, literally zero AM5 itx boards support that U.2 ssd

#

To m.2?

#

Might want to consider going matx then

#

Ok

fading thicket
#

its degrees celsius not farenheit

#

computer temps are measured in celsius

cinder agate
fading thicket
#

even in the us we use celsius for computer temps bc its easier to compare them online

cinder agate
#

In an itx case with the components u wang to use you'll have to fight for every degree u can get, yes

#

Probably more likely will have to downclock instead of overclock

#

Generally speaking 90 for CPU and 80 for GPU. In most cases u can peak a bit higher for short periods of time, but you kinda want to aim to 80 for CPU and 70 for GPU on full load. Lower = better.

#

Ive read some reviews and one guy has a supreme liquid x in an nr200 (sorry not 200p) and it runs relatively cool

#

The only thing is an nr 200p wout fit a proper 360mm cpu rad

cinder agate
#

Or an open itx bench, but that has other downsides

runic delta
#

Maybe the ap201?

#

The nzxt h1 is out from the bat as oorc it only supports the 120mm cpu aio

#

I mean a 240mm for a 7950x3d is fine but not the greatest

#

The problem is where on earth does a itx case with 2x240mm rad support exist

#

And also other intake fans

cinder agate
runic delta
#

Its her first build

#

I beg of you dont put the idea of custom loops into her head

cinder agate
#

Or you need to be able to mount one outside the case .. but why going itx in the first place then lol

cinder agate
runic delta
#

Dust and also if you accidentally spill sth on it

#

Also otd be easier to introduce static inot the pc

cinder agate
#

He means static air pressure

#

To keep dust out and whatnot

runic delta
#

The liquid x comes with a 240 rad but talking from experience here even a 360mm rad struggles to tame a 7950x (yes higher tdp but iirc around the same boost wattage) like at max all core load an nzxt aio at full blast can barely keep it under 87 celsius

#

Tbh nzxt aios are kinda shit but it was my friends choice

#

No static air pressure is like let's say negative pressure in a case, I.e more exhaust than intake causes negative air pressure pulling fresh air into the case albeit a lot more dust than positiv3 air pressurw

#

They do boost in tdp to around the same wattage tho iirc

#

Just checked

#

X3d boosts to around 170w and the normal 7950x boosts to 230w

cinder agate
#

Theres static pressure fans and airflow fans. Static pressure fans will be better to get air through tight spaces. While airflow fans just provide more flow, but that flow might skip certain spots bc it choses the easiest way to flow

#

In an open bench its basically impossible to use static pressure fans bc u cant create the pressure bc its open

runic delta
#

You might aswell go with air cooling ngl

#

Unless youre all about the fancy screens ok aios and all

#

Air collers will have better performance for space they take than aios

cinder agate
runic delta
#

Also they're way cheaper

runic delta
#

Ofc as long as on oc Is applied

cinder agate
runic delta
#

And itd prolly be better than a 240mm aio

runic delta
#

?

cinder agate
#

And extra fan

#

I should check

#

Okay, but to be fair

#

I have fans ar like 20%

#

Bc i dont want a jet engine next to me

#

So yes.. at full load it cools better... But the dB's 🥲

cinder agate
#

Oh right. I remember I fixed it by putting it on eco power settings. For games i didnt rly lose any performance, I might have gained some actually. But big big difference in temps. Like 20°
So thats why I think a 7950x3d that will actually use all its cores will definitely thermal throttle often.

runic delta
#

Hmmmm

#

I'd say just go matx

#

No custom loop juts a 360mm aio

#

And tgat supreme liquid x

#

Just since the nr200p can't support 2 240mm aios iirc

#

That ventus card has pretty decent vrms and build q

#

Also imo it looks better than the suprim liquid

#

The thing is both rads should preferably be exhaust so where would intake be

#

Well more exh than in is negative and you can rlly have fans pulling air thru a rad cos its gonna be heated up

cinder agate
#

Mount the rads on top of eachother linuth

runic delta
#

Anyways I gtg sleep its 1am gl on your journey dream

cinder agate
#

Cant really say intake or outtake are neg or pos

#

You can have more of one, but fewer of the other can still provide more pressure

#

Its just the pressure inside the case compaired to outside the case

#

Higher pressure in the case than outside = pos

#

Lower pressure inside = neg

#

Like how some medical facilities have pos pressure rooms

#

Or anywhere whey they wanna keep dust out. Like the chip production facilities

cinder agate
#

Cute and looks nice, but you'll lose (a lot) on performance. It's whatever u prefer tho: cuteness/style over performance

cosmic finch
#

Micheal is doing a lot of crazy things lol

fading thicket
#

putting a 4090 in a sff case is still pretty crazy

cinder agate
#

Then he'll just buy a 2nd and 3rd to spread the load lol

cosmic finch
#

Well i grab higher then I’m planning to run

torpid sluice
#

That’s works

#

Fair warning you still may run into windows errors with 6600 2 stick kit

#

1600 watt PSU sheeshhhh

cosmic finch
#

That why it easy to get the speeds i want

#

It looks better then having 2 empty slots honestly

leaden fossil
#

there are kits that have dummy sticks

#

but atleast the pc build is nearly done now

fair vapor
#

@untold kelpmost itx cases will never be able to have the axi in so you need to swap that out with an sfx/sfx-l

#

because someone else is doing something does not mean you should copy them, and as for ram is concerned you will have to sell them on for what you don't use, remember anything over 64gb will be unstable with amd, especially when running 4 sticks of ddr5

fair vapor
#

thermal throttle temp is 95c, thermal shutdown temp is 105-115c depending on intel or amd for the cpu

thermal throttle temp for a gpu's core is 90-95c and for vram 95-100c while thermal shutdown temp is 110-120c on the core and 120-130c on the vram, and the vram can cause the gpu to thermal throttle before the core does

The h1?

fair vapor
runic delta
#

What other itx cases? N

#

Nzxt h210i?

fair vapor
#

h200

fair vapor
runic delta
#

They've been discontinued iirc

fair vapor
#

yeah, her whole system will thermal throttle in it tbh

runic delta
#

Omly a front 120-280 rad

#

And tgat case has pretty decent airflow but its either water-cooled gpu or cpu

fair vapor
#

torrent compact would be more ideal tbf

#

though that means gpu rad on the front, and a air cooler or 120mm aio for cpu

runic delta
#

A 120mm will not handle a 7950x3d

#

Maybe undervolted

fair vapor
#

with pbo2 + curve optimizer tuning and some undervolting, it could

runic delta
#

Wouldn't she lose quite a significant amnt of performance tho

fair vapor
#

from what i've seen it might be able to do 2x 240mm aio's on the meshify

runic delta
fair vapor
#

pbo gives you some performance gains, curve optimizer itself reduces power draw per core which in turn makes it run slightly cooler, and with an undervolt on top it can run even cooler

runic delta
#

A way to get around that would be maybe to get a mobo without vrm heatsinks and low profile components but thats like a620 and b650 entry level

fair vapor
#

tbh there's several high end mobo's that have no need for vrm heatsinks

#

mainly due to how they're configured

runic delta
#

Like?

#

Remember ofc a 3.2 gen 1 and gen 2 header is needed

#

Just cos of the meshify 2

fair vapor
runic delta
#

But just to get full speed of gen 2

#

Yk how she is with everything being fully compatible and all

fair vapor
#

if said header does gen 2 speed it's do that through the splitter

runic delta
#

Huh I didn't know that I though the usb 3 fp ia diff from the usb c 3.2 header

fair vapor
#

usb c uses a type E header for it on the mobo but you can convert out to that

#

but if the 19 pin header for usb 3 already does gen 2 speed, it makes no matter

#

@runic delta this exists

#

designed for those that only have a 3.0 header but needs both

#

$60 and does exactly as she wants

#

ofcourse she'd have to vertically mount the gpu for it to be most effective for how she'd want to have everything cooled

#

but it does mean she can use 2x 240mm rads with the fans in 2 different positions

#

the much more expensive cases can't even do this without some form of case modding

#

otherwise it's mATX or bigger

#

all these builds are based around an air cooled gpu, not liquid cooled

#

not really, it's how you're supposed to measure gpu temps in

fair vapor
#

Tends to be more of , "you want sff, time to pay a premium for it on all your parts"

#

Yea they’re just fake RGB sticks that are Leds

#

Buttttt I haven’t seen them for ddr5 just ddr4 so

cinder agate
fair vapor
#

vengence pro and dominator both have a fake dummy stick made for them in regards to using a mobo that can take 4 ram sticks

#

the dominator titanium doesn't have a fake one yet, and it's highly unlikely to be running at 6600mhz

#

corsair usual treat dominators better than their vengence line, but we're talking 1st gen amd ddr5 imc

fair vapor
#

don't, save yourself the headache as a first time builder and just get 6000 cl30/32 ram

#

as for it will be more than a weekends worth of tuning to get it to what you want it to be with the right timings

upbeat sinew
#

another one?...

cosmic finch
#

im worried youre not gunna get the right cooling for the gpu and cpu in a small case

fair vapor
#

it's more than just putting the timings in, it's also testing the stability of the timings as well

#

and with that stability it's what else it also affects

#

the stability test alone can last up to 8 hours each time

cosmic finch
#

Yeah but like specs LIE a lot. GN does amazing case reviews

fair vapor
#

well i found the only itx case to match what you want to do

#

works for your gpu, does 2x240 rad

#

just means spraying the case to the colour you want

anywho, what's being discussed now? cases?

devout willow

extremely personal preference

fair vapor

i'd avoid any of the o11's for your use case tbh, they work better as a custom loop case

if its going to be itx, the obvious choice is an itx case

fair vapor
#

ax600i specs

near seal
#

wait wtf. why is it itx with a 1600i? thats really stupid

#

what kind of case do you want? do you want a tall case with a narrow footprint? do you want a traditional tower case? do you want a desktop style?

fair vapor
cinder agate
#

So no itx case then. Even if you'ld find one if would be so stuffed that u wong have sufficient airflow all together

fair vapor
#

easiest way to search on there for a case to fit

nr200p supports 2 aios? what?

fair vapor

yes but it can't do 2x 240mm aio

devout willow
#

what about a meshroom s

near seal
devout willow
#

nvm that shits $340

fair vapor
#

it can't do that due to the gpu you want to use

devout willow
#

no, ssupd is the brand

fair vapor
devout willow
#

wait, 2 rads and the gpu rad?

near seal
fair vapor
devout willow
#

ah

#

meshroom s and a 4090 fe instead whoa

fair vapor
#

what is said in the manual and how you'll physically fit it in differs

#

remember what i showed you earlier/yesturday when you looked up about the pink nr200p?

near seal
#

honestly give up on a 4090 liquid

devout willow
#

too far in

fair vapor
#

it's the same with a different side

near seal
#

also has no glass side panel - replaces it with some mesh for gpu

devout willow
#

no rgb either it seems

near seal
#

yeah she said that

devout willow
#

oopsie

fair vapor
#

fun fact, the drgb and performance ones are interchangable for parts

#

just like how you can interchange between a 4000d, 4000d AF and a 4000x

devout willow
#

inflated store price probably

fair vapor
#

the sellers

near seal
#

everyone probably wanted the "performance" version

devout willow
#

i doubt

near seal
#

i think what needs to happen is either itx needs to be dropped or the liquid suprim needs to be dropped

fair vapor
#

on the performance one

#

that mesh over the gpu allows you to put extra fans above the gpu

#

so you can add extra airflow over the gpu itself

devout willow
#

are we getting into this can of worms again

near seal
#

unless we settle for this case right now

fair vapor
#

asus tuf gaming oc 4090

near seal
#

does the phanteks 200a support atx psus?

fair vapor
#

with 5mm of room to spare

near seal
#

lol

fair vapor
#

p200a's allowance = 205mm

near seal
#

if dream wants the combination of parts she has chosen now, the p200a is the obvious choice. with the reasonable thickness of the liquid suprim, the D-RGB version is probably fine

near seal
#

literally 100% of itx builds have tight cable management

fair vapor
#

if you dropped to a good 1200w psu it would allow for less tightness on the cables which is better for your system to not short out

near seal
#

sff, i should say

fair vapor
near seal
#

what?

#

yes

cosmic finch
#

Idk if you still ok cases or not but this one is interesting

fair vapor
fair vapor
near seal
#

one thing to note, any psu higher than like 1200w is going to have a different power cord from all below that

fair vapor
near seal
fair vapor
cosmic finch
#

Oh that cute too!

near seal
#

the one on the higher wattage ones are designed for higher power, but it means you're stuck with a far less common power cord

fair vapor
#

not suitable for you

#

1x 120/240/140/280mm

#

which is for cpu only

near seal
#

its literally the phanteks 200a or nothing

fair vapor
#

he's refering to the semi-fanless switch

near seal
#

the one on the higher wattage ones are designed for higher power, but it means you're stuck with a less common power cord

cosmic finch
#

One thing about power supplies too is efficiency rating. I like using titanium rated psus

fair vapor
#

the location the raditor will be in that case

#

on the hyte case

near seal
#

toggling that allowes the fan to switch off under low load, aka when your not gaming.
but thats not what i was talking about. i was talking about the AC power plug

cosmic finch
fair vapor
fair vapor
#

to manually control when the fan kicks in essentially

near seal
#

correct

fair vapor
near seal
#

the p200a, you'd want the psu fan on anyway to be an exhaust

fair vapor
#

it doesn't need it

cosmic finch
#

It’s a 30amp cable vs 20amp too isn’t it?

fair vapor
#

hell, the hela doesn't need it either, it's an optional extra they added to it

fair vapor
cosmic finch
#

The EVGA the cable itself says 30amp

near seal
fair vapor
#

they never did, you have a board inside the psu thast monitors it's temps and controlls the fan speed

fair vapor
#

you guys like to split it rather than have it be efficient

Ok here you go

@near seal his face says it all

cosmic finch
#

correct me if im wrong isnt that case using the better then?

near seal

cosmic finch
#

the pump is twords the middle and the rad goes to the top of the back of the case

fair vapor
cosmic finch
#

no its not

near seal
cosmic finch
near seal
#

its the "bad" orientation

cosmic finch
#

look at where the gpu it this is showing the back

near seal
#

wait thats where it is?

cosmic finch
#

yea

near seal
#

then yes, thats the "better" orientation

cosmic finch
#

that why i was so confused you guys saying it bad

near seal
#

i just assumed it was on the bottom

cosmic finch
#

i was like pretty sure thats actaully a great placement

#

That case actually looo decent just the issue is gpu

near seal
#

yeah

#

esthetic media pc :0

cosmic finch
#

The price is kinda crazy too

near seal
#

and a bti of a waste of money

near seal
cosmic finch
#

Nvm most that money is spent on the glass!

#

It’s tempered glass that’s curved that crazy expensive

fair vapor
cosmic finch
#

I bet that glass cost about half the expense to make that case

near seal
#

probably

#

and just the novelty of it has a premium

cosmic finch
#

What’s the best gpu should could fit?

fair vapor
cinder agate
#

Lets just go for integrated graphics linuth

hearty lance
#

here we go again

#

Wait she wants itx and a 7950x3d AND 4090?

fair vapor
hearty lance
#

wdym

#

sorry caps

fair vapor
#

not just cpu, but primarily the cpu

near seal
#

Any liquid cooling system

#

It’s the same. But usually, the rad is higher than the gpu anyway

fair vapor
#

if the cpu was being air cooled then you would aim to have the rad from the gpu on the top

near seal
#

Really only applies when the AIO does not span the entire available space. Aka 240 in a 360mm spot, 120 in a 240

fair vapor
#

but with the p200a, you can do the gpu rad on the front and the aio rad for the cpu on the side

near seal
#

which is why you should pick that one if you want itx and 4090 liquid suprim

fair vapor
near seal
#

horizontal would be ideal to keep the rear exhaust

#

unless you put the rads in intake + exhaust

#

then idk

fair vapor

shown with a custom loop but as 2x240mm rad

well

where do you see mobo try?

having 3 360mm rads in the same case

oh that to the right of the mobo

no

pretty sure that where its talking about

i would call it the back

gotcha

then yea the side

#

ah

#

im not putting a rad there im putting a distro plate

its helps when doing custom looping

work as a res too

and pump

#

im running 2 pumps and 2 res

devout willow

distro plates are pretty

cosmic finch

yes

some have water pumps but what they are mostly for is helping manage your piping

whats stopping you?

the inexperiance?

yep that sounds about right

well tbh some of the smalled pc builds ive seen have been achived becuase of custom water cooling

you mean soft tubing?

gotcha i was like hard tubing is plastic too... unless you do acrylic... ill never do acrylic again

this is my first build doing metal tubing tho

black soft tubing doesnt look too bad

@untold kelp i hope you know i was never trying to start problem btw just having fun?

I think that will be the only way. Or she has to buy a place and set up like 5 solar panels or build a windmil lol

#

a generator basically coverts petrochemicals via an engine into kenetic energy which drives a motor to create the power you want

#

inverters just convert from dc voltage to ac voltage

#

in most cases, generators create AC power easily, and only require a rectifier inline if you want to drop it to dc power

#

In electricity generation, a generator is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas turbines, water turbines, internal combustion engines, wind turbines and even hand cr...

#

the closest you get to a generator on a vehicle is the alternator tbh

torpid sluice
#

Alternators shouldn't ever be used to handle heavy loads like that tho

#

they are designed to only maintain the battery and its what keeps your vehicle running

fair vapor
#

true they are, though you can get a dc to dc kit that while the vehicle is in motion it keeps the batteries for your offgrid setup topped up alongside what the solar panels/charger is doing

torpid sluice
#

Yea for sure

fair vapor
#

ultimately 4-5 solar panels at 250-400w with a 15-30amp charger on 2+ batteries connected up to a decent inverter

torpid sluice

So no gaming at night

should be more than enough, considering that you can get an inverter with 94-96% efficiency nowadays

Not sure that’s true if it is max 1 hour

near seal
#

you'll barely use it

#

so?

#

and not all of them have that many headers

#

no

#

they dont

#

cases cant assume you have a $500 motherboard

#

what chipset

#

not everyone is using am5 either

#

7000D has 4 usb a

#

in the picture

#

probably 1, maybe 2 physical connections to the motherboard

#

o11 evo has 2 usb a

#

but as i said, front io is not used very much

#

i mean, its mainly used for usb drives, and those aren't always plugged in

#

yeah, most usb remains always plugged in

#

yes

#

you really wont use it that much tho

#

and since most motherboards dont have that much usb 3.0/3.1 (cases usually dont have usb 2 front io), they cant just load the case with io

#

itll either be bandwidth limited, or header limited

#

what motherboard is that

#

oh yeah

#

lol

#

its made for custom watercooling

near seal
#

yes

#

no

#

no, they need something to cool

#

its still not cooling anything

#

the water isnt cooling anything. and therefore, the radiator isnt cooling anything

#

that would be a result of the fans not the rad

#

480mm case fans wouldnt fit in any consumer case

#

if you mean 4 120mm fans then yes, thats what youd do

#

there's no reason to add a radiator for no reason

#

thats 480mm long, or 4 120mm fans

#

a 480mm fan would be gigantic

#

480mm x 480mm

#

yeah

#

if you had a 360mm aio for the cpu, youd have a total of 600mm of radiator surface area

#

and to maximize airflow, all the other fan spaces would be filled with just fans

#

480 rads definitely exist

#

420 do too but they're less common

#

i think

#

they're solely for custom watercooling

#

aio? no

#

not enough cases support them

#

plenty of cases support dual 360 so thats a lot more common

#

5000d, o11d (evo, xl, xl evo)

#

no

#

aio 4090s are uncommon enough as it is

#

pcpartpicker shows some 420

#

but no 480

#

for the same reason 4090's dont have it

#

not enough cases support more than 360

torpid sluice
#

Tbh I thought it was nuts they stuck a a small rad on the Liquid Suprim but it surprising cools decent

near seal
#

well, its 240 + 120

torpid sluice
#

Kinda makes me think I might be able to cool my 7900 xtx with a 280mm rad pretty okay

near seal
#

because of the 1 fan on the gpu itself

torpid sluice
#

Yea

#

I believe that only cools the memory tho from what I’ve seen

near seal
#

probably

#

i mean, its also a known fact that 4090 coolers are overbuilt

#

rog strix surviving (i think) 45C ambient temps

torpid sluice
#

Even amds flagship have overbuilt coolers

#

Happy to see watercooling have negligible benefits other then noise nowadays

near seal
#

thats all its ever been

#

peerless assassin as example (also 4090 strix cooler)

torpid sluice
#

Well at one point it was useful to an extent for heavy overclocking.

#

But not Specifically gpu coolers are so big they just cool better

near seal
#

well, not ever, but for a while

torpid sluice
#

I mean they Defo cool better

#

And along with companies adding vapor chambers into the design as well

#

But now that’s been out for quiet some years so

torpid sluice
#

technically speaking yes at stock clock ut the rog strix will OC higher because of a higher power limit

cosmic finch
#

I think you can bios flash it and remove that

torpid sluice
#

the msi is 575

#

its defo 575w JayzTwoCentz talks ab it in one of his videos

#

He was trynna compare the differences between those two exact cards I believe as well

#

Yes but the msi was literally power limited when Overclocking

#

But not as much as the MSI

#

It has a hard limit at 575 in the bios whereas the rog strix does not

#

Actually no I’m sorry it’s actually 520w

#

Literally shows the possible power limits of both cards at max wattage

#

The FE even has a higher bios limit

#

Bro no there’s not it’s still power limited in the bios lol

#

The liquid and the air cooled one are both power limited

#

520 on air and 530 on liquid

near seal
#

Your point is?

#

No, you

torpid sluice
#

They actually do in some circumstances

#

The 4090 scales fairly well with higher power limits

#

Yes with this gen lol

#

That’s literally it true but alright whatever stock bios they aren’t the same power limit

near seal
#

Doesn’t take up less space

torpid sluice
#

You’re delusional

near seal
#

You also have to account for the tubes running through the case, which make it take up more space. They literally just moved the fin stack to the edge of the case

torpid sluice
#

lol instead of having a 3 slot card you have a 2 slots card with a radiator and tubes attached it takes up way more space

near seal
#

It’s not just the volume of the tubes. It’s the fact that they go through the middle of the case

#

While the technical volume may be similar, the practical volume is more on the liquid

torpid sluice
#

No it doesn’t

#

You have to account for not being able to bend the tubes of the cable 90 degrees….

near seal
#

Did you include the fans?

torpid sluice
#

It takes up way more space

#

Using the suprim liquid X over a air cooled card in a small case would be stupid

Exactly why it takes up more space 🤦🏼‍♂️

You’re delusional

torpid sluice

No it’s not lol

You’re literally delusional

I just said the rog strix has a higher power limit stop twisting my words you can literally scroll up and look at the messages lol

torpid sluice

I'm not gonna argue with you people have literally complain about their cards on MSI forums not hitting 600w sooooo

#

Not to say it won't go over that from transient spikes but the official bios limit is 530w

fair vapor
#

nope

#

according to what site?

#

the biggest rad to exist is 1080mm but that's an external rad, the biggest rad for inside a case is 560mm

#

you're mixing up what usb headers for the front i/o has, also 1 or 2 usb 2 headers are used internally for things like hubs for things like rgb/argb or fans some times, or even with a few brands the aio itself, so no, a case is not designed to account for all the headers on a mobo

fair vapor
fair vapor
#

you mean OC, not XOC those are different in nature, also they all can hit 600w with transient some just do it quicker than others

cinder agate
#

The only way to get the best performance with these high-end components in sff is using custom loops and an external active chiller 🤓
Heck, you'll probably only need 1 or 2 fans in total in the case then. All the extra space inside... But outside the case you'll add a component thats about as big as ur whole case.. that pulls about as much electricity as ur PC 🤓

fair vapor
#

and for an external rad, depends on the fans used but roughly 2-3w total for 9 good fans on a 1080mm external rad

cinder agate
fair vapor

which is why people have said not to go custom loop

still at the end of the day, not for your use case, and more for those who like to OC

nope

it's a pump, radiator and fans all in a single unit

insides of it

if i was going to use chilled water, or similar, i'd use something like this as you can maintain a constant set temp with it

#

you can excerpt other cooling forms against the radiator, reducing temps for those who like to XOC

which chilled water comes under

#

aka water that's had lots of ice added to it

fair vapor

people do that as well

you get ducting, tape it to the ac, then tape it to the case/cooler, and run the ac

runic delta
#

Be like linus, use your pool

similar, but with an external rad, you connect it to a custom loop inside the case

#

well apart from getting shitty fans in the case, not really

torpid sluice

yes, and the radiator is the same size in comparison, just means using a reducer inline on the pipework

No your question just doesn’t make sense

devout willow
#

yeah.. thats what volume implies..

near seal
#

“So a 172L case is mid tower case is…”

fair vapor
#

obviously, different footprint

#

81,84L full tower implies a taller but narrower case

#

where as a 172L mid tower implies a shorter by wider case

#

length X height X width is all measurements

#

or the fact it was still a more common sense thing

#

so it's not like he had to know the exact details for it

#

yes really

#

yes, really, totally

#

you're asking relating to a volumetric measurement

#

less volume usually denotes a slimmer design despite the cases height

#

and more volume denotes a way wider case

#

while not bigger in height, it's bigger in width, which yes on one point it's not bigger, while in another point yes it is due to the width

near seal
#

Because I couldn’t care less about volume. As long as it fits my motherboard and has adequate radiator support for what I want, that’s all that matters to me

#

Because they’re not mass produced

#

Well, they are, but not for diy as much

#

Get a itx mini tower like the 2000D and it’ll have a small footprint

fair vapor
#

which are just mainly labelled as htpc cases

fair vapor
#

should have it in metric not american imperial for best accuracy

cm preferably

anything in MM's you divide by 10 to get cm's

decimeters = 10cm at a time

You are wayyyy over complicating this

fair vapor

length X width for that yes

though it's usually length X height and the X width in alot of their measurements if i remember corectly

near seal
#

It’s probably been in every order tbh

fair vapor
#

nah, when you look on some they do different orders on their websites

#

like for mine they've put the width first

#

so it's doing width X height first, then X depth (length of the case)

near seal
#

Yeah

fair vapor
#

which can be fustrating to some

#

though i hate converting metric to imperial, i can do it but modern conversion does 1inch = 2.5cm rather than the proper conversion of 1inch = 2.54cm

#

as a true inch = 2.54cm or 25.4mm which ever way you like to look at it

near seal

And that difference adds up

fair vapor

yup, very much so, which is part of why i say about there being discrepancies

basically all x670e motherboards are on par or beat that, and x670 comes close

#

and basically unused

#

but again, none of the extra pcie is used on itx

#

which is the main reason its a waste of money

#

tbh this is probably my favorite rear io (Gigabyte x670 Aorus Elite)

#

im not going to argue with you

#

if you want to waste your money on an x670e itx board, go ahead

#

just the z790

#

eh

#

tbh the other itx motherboards have ass rear io for no reason

#

especially AsRock

near seal
#

youre doing itx?

#

get an itx case

#

....

#

decide form factor today, right now

#

come back when you have your "perfect case" then

#

you're deciding things way out of order, but i can't make you do it any differently
