A community to discuss small form factor PCs.
Rules:
Honestly not the easiest build, the EVGA PSU had some issues under load and had to be replaced, and the reseller from AliExpress who painted the case didn't do a phenomenal job. However, it's not easy finding a sub 7L case with front IO so I'm happy with the final product.

That is a TIGHT fit. Wow!
Not as tight as I expected, actually. You could fit another 4-5cm in GPU length with no real issues, and I crammed 2 2.5in SSDs in there, even though the manufacturer only claims 1 can fit.
I reallly like how they did the cutouts on the body panels
fire build dude
Thanks! The slots seem to be pretty decent for cooling. I'm seeing similar temps to my previous much larger case. They do include an acrylic side panel as well, not sure how that performs.
I have the same case in white, purchased from Amazon, with an i3-12100f and Asus tuf 3080. The SGPC brand PCIE 3.0 riser cable was making my GPU unstable at frequencies above like 1600 mhz so I just threw down $80 for a new PCIE 4.0 riser cable from Linkup. Seems stable now at 1770 mhz @850 mv. Wish the SGPC riser cable had been more stable.
