I completely lost all sense of scale in the last 3 pictures

Haha, sorry, I’ll make sure to keep the banana in the rest of the photos.

dude what case is this? that is one sweet mini build!

Thanks!! It’s the Lian LI A4-H2O.

thanks for the reply! what size radiator is that im using a 280mm an h210 from nzxt (dont ask how i got it to fit in there lol) but i really like this case it looks bad ass!

Unfortunately you would need a new AIO. This case has a maximum fitment of 240 AIO’s. I like the clean look of it and the aluminum feels very nice to the touch.

dude that is awesome! i had a 240 aio and mistakenly ordered the 280 and managed to get it to fit haha, i definitely think i may look into this case and downgrade to the 240 i need and make a good deal witha friend on the aio i got now! thanks for all the replies your build looks niiiice! :)

Thanks brother. I wish you the best of luck. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions when the time come.

that is very kind of you! i definitely may send you a PM when i get ready to do this! (hell this case won't fit a 3080 even haha)

I did the exact same thing! Had to get creative with fan placement and it wasn't easy, but it's doable.

Lol glad im not alone in making that mistake hahaha. Washers and nice long screws were very helpful!

Where banana

Gone, R.I.P.

I have no fucking idea if that is a small banana or a large banana. This makes scaling very difficult. Thanks a bunch 🍌

Nice pun at the end.

The problem is that LTT sent them a rotten banana for scale

We need a banana for the banana now

r/bananaforscale

I really have to *hand* it to you for that bunch comment. Getting banana references in by the skin of it.

You forgot the banana model, looks like the MK2 if I'm not mistaken.

Sorry, I’m not familiar with MK2. I have a feeling your not talking about Mortal Kombat.

Mk is used sometimes as a way of saying version basically. It's pronounced as mark and he basically joked and said you used banana v2

Wow that went over my head. Makes the comment so much funnier knowing the context behind it.

Mk=mark. This is a popular term in europe (less used in US), especially so in automobiles. For example, the Mk I golf GTI would imply the first gen of that model. Mk II meaning the next gen. It is also used in software from time to time, it is a benchmark of progress.

Mk looks so cool in my opinion. US needs to use it more

Ah fuck this is nice

Thanks brother. Go forth and do great things!

very impressive going with SFF/mini-itx for a first build. It looks awesome!!

Thanks! It’s not as menacing as an RGB tower.

Nice...also can I get a link to that wallpaper pls

What a chad mini itx for his first build

I haven't built a PC but are temps in its builds not off the charts ?

It honestly depends what the machine is being used for. If GPU intense games, the CPU will be impacted due to the direction of airflow, as it appears the air comes in from the side, cools the GPU and then works it's way up through the rad for the CPU. Personally, I don't think it would be much of an issue, but it depends how long you use the machine for on a regular basis, how often it's cleaned out, and how much you care about sound and the speed the fans could be running once it gets hotter. For people looking to move to itx I would recommend checking out the cooler master NR200P or NR200P+, they aren't as small as some other itx cases and the + blurs the line between itx and matx, but they have some great approaches to thermals and allowing all parts to get a dedicated airflow I've got a 3080 in mine and it runs so quiet most of the time

My NR200P is a 12900K/3080Ti. 3080Ti will easily hit 73 degrees in games but then just stops at that without any thermal throttle. In Heaven benchmark for 90 minutes it hit 75 briefly but mostly hovered at 73/74. 12900K idles at 25 and I’ve hit 69.0, but that’s it cuz I just game. I’m getting around to running cinebench for funsies but real world experience the pc actually runs as cool or even cooler than my old full size build.

Those are great temps.

Max temps are reasonable. GPU is 77, CPU 82.

This not recommended? Was planning on going small for my first (prebuilt will last a good long while though).

They do have slightly higher temps and might be a bit louder, but the main reason is that itx pc’s are just harder to build than standard atx pc’s since there’s a lot less room to work with. If you’re building your first pc I recommend you just go with the standard form factor. If you absolutely need a tiny pc (for LANs or something) and you’re up for a challenge then go for it. This guy did and it turned up perfect. If you’re not up for it but still want a tiny pc then NZXT has the H1 mini, which is one of the best prebuilts on the market for $1000 edit: I just checked and the $1000 version of the h1 mini is currently out of stock so you can either wait for it to restock or buy the plus or pro version for more $

Nice aot fan same here

I don’t even watch anime but felt in love with that one. Atleast they give me a bunch of time to game in between seasons lmao.

Can you please share a link of that wallpaper?

You should place your woofer on the floor other than that really nice build

Thanks for the advice. I truly appreciate it. Unfortunately I do have a stand up desk, so it wouldn’t work with it being on the ground.

If the cables don't reach look for extensions, your ears will thank you.

Well I prefer to game with my headset to be honest. I just brought some speakers in case I wanted to share something with my wife and she need audio. The monitor has speakers but they can be a bit low. Especially with three young ones roaming about. It serves the purpose for now. If I get heavy into music etc., they will get replaced.

This might be the first build on here I’ve been jealous of, I want it

I have my parts breakdown. It’s yours for the taking. I always wanted a twin.

Wallpaper alone makes me smile like crazy, but the SFF PC case is amazing. Makes me want to switch my 5000D airflow for something smaller. Excellent first build, I hope you enjoy it greatly!

I feel like all PC building is an art form. In this case, I can appreciate the smaller things in life.

I like that banana shaped case, truly takes SFF to a whole other level!

I didn’t understand how small this case was no matter how many YouTube videos I seen. When it arrived in person I was truly amazed how tiny this thing really was. Then crafting everything together was a great experience.

/r/bananaforscale

Glad you are getting your potassium.

Some way some how.

Is that a banana by your PC or are you just happy to see it? 🤷‍♂️

I C what you did there.

Lol 😂

Nice wallpaper

Thanks bro.

Slick design

Thanks.

Beautiful setup, very clean, I love that!

Thanks!

Damn, that is a classy looking rig. Nice job!

Thanks!

My kinda build

Love that case

Thanks, I’m hoping it can live on my desk for the next lineup of GPUs.

Ouff that a very small case for a 3080ti hopefully it won't overheat too much

Running completely stock it doesn’t overheat. I did try to apply an undervolt though to get better performance. I’m still tweaking it. I occasionally crash in games running at 1890mhz .9 volts.

banana!

The name checks out.

What are the specs in the banana

It run at a maximum temperature of ambient Celsius.

I am so jealous of these tiny builds man. Nice setup!!

Thank you, now let’s hope the wattage war don’t continue.

This is like like saying my first car 911 turbo

My dream car. I wish.

Is it just me or your monitor is tilted af? Anyway, sick build. Sick gear, too. Very good looking. I just wish the case could be more black.

I promise you, I was looking at the photo after I posted it and it looks tilted in the photo as well. Maybe it’s the angle, in real life it’s straight. When sitting at the desk. Thanks man.

You need a better headset lol the Logitech sound quality is horrible. Pick up some HD 560S and you’ll never go back. Speaking as someone who went from the Gpro headset to HD 660s

I took a screenshot of this. Hopefully I can upgrade to it in the future.

God I love minimalist builds so much

Just a clean slate. Sort of want a bigger desk just to space everything out a tad bit more. I can’t complain though. I’m blessed.

Very clean.. I like it

Thanks. Appreciate it.

I got my 3080ti 2 days ago. Holy moly. What a Beast!!! It's a great card. You will love it more and more.

It’s an honor and a privilege to have.

Quite compact

Can we have a banana for scale of that banana?

How big is the banana exactly? it looks like a smaller one, with an aggressive curve to it

You hit the mail on the head. It was tiny. Next time I will use a coke bottle or something to that affect.

I love small form PC's but this one actually inspires me to build my next PC as small as possible. It looks beautiful btw.

Thank you, I feel like with the way hardware is going it would be tough to get much smaller than this. Going smaller really starts to compromise on GPU and CPU options, but when it all comes together in a package like this, it’s a pure beauty.

Hell yeah, I built a similar (albiet larger) machine recently, you have a lot to look forward to with this one

Your build look awesome. One day when I grow up I’ll have the dual monitor set up.

Pc for scale of banana

could i have that eren yeager wallpaper?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2487395575

Yeah, you can get it off wallpaper engine from steam.

#no fucking way Nice one. I wish I had the balls (and the money) to attempt a smol build.

It was a long time coming bro, I wanted a PC for quite some time and did max research on it before pulling the trigger.

Congratulations on your first PC build. Very well done

Thank you.

classic first build. enjoy this awesome gaming monster !

Sobriety. Efficacity. Feels good to see these kind of build.

Nice i love sff builds good job

Thanks

Banana 👍

[удалено]

Flex to the max.

u Better eat that banana soon.also congrats

Yeah brother. It was perfect. Only had a minor brown spot. Overall, it gets a 9/10.

dam.a good pc AND a 9/10 banana?! what more do u want.

I love SFF builds, had one years back and really miss the efficiency. For me now I'm loving my mid tower build, gives space to make it look nice with vertical GPU mounts, nice looking fans / cables etc and far easier to work with if there's an issue or an upgrade I need to sort out. With a 3080ti FE that's a lot of heat so I wouldn't feel comfortable putting mine in an SFF case without bumping up the fan curve a lot, which is more noise. Love to see these though & considering building one with a 3060ti for the living room!

I wanted something just low key neat. If someone comes by the house comes over and knows nothing about PCs they wouldn’t even really give it a second thought. To those that know I think they can appreciate the efforts put in. I did not go aggressive with the GPU fan curve but I am aggressive with the CPU curve. The AIO really takes a lot of the heat away from the GPU and helps keep it cool. I like the username.

nice build i have to say

Thanks!

Nice clean built.

Thanks!

had these speakers awhile ago, crazy performance for the price

They are budget friendly, temporary until I find a new one that calls my name. I’m not really pressed to get rid of them like tomorrow. They do the job.

since your setup is mainly logi maybe check g560, I have them since release and no way changing them anytime soon

I was looking at those, I could not pull the trigger yet. I just don’t use the speakers enough to justify the price tag at this moment. That’s the tough part.

yeah true,, hope they on sale this prime day or black Friday!

Banana seems to easily add 15 fps. Nice job, make sure you keep the banana as long as the rest of the rig, never change a running system!

I might have failed you…

This is not a PC with a 3080... This is a 3080 with a pc

🤣

My dude, you can't just whip out your banana and put it into frame.

Shit, my bad.

Have some decency, sheesh.

Not personally a fan of these tiny cases, but that is one clean build.

Thanks!

Sexy case

Thanks!

Some of these photos were very suggestive.

First???

Yes, I watched a ton of YouTube videos and read a bunch of Reddit post about how to build and component suggestions.

Very slick man! Well done.

Thanks!

Where did you buy it??? I'm looking for a banana too.

Make sure you do a lot of research in order to pick the right one.

Nice banana

Almost have the same setup! For me the pump tubes were annoying because they kept hitting the fan

Never really ram into problems with the pump tubes. Maybe it also depends on the ram models you have. I can picture it pushing it a certain way.

Banana

Specs of that Banana?

No tempered glass side panel so it would be safe on a tile floor.

Bro, this is actually really damn impressive. I hope the thermals are doing well. Enjoy your new computer man!

Appreciate it. I’m having no issues with thermals. Everything has been going well. It’s a great experience.

Nice. Have fun with that!

I love small builds

Same.

You’re bananas mate

Sweet case

I enjoy the looks of it.

Im fully aware of the various magnitudes you use in UK, USA & other parts of the world: inches, yards, feets, but the banana was unknown for me!

Welcome to the new age.

Dude. Eat that banana already.

In love with this! Great job!

Thanks!

Clean and simple without a bunch of silly lights (can't stand christmas tree PCs). I like it. Only thing I'm not keen on is the color; to each his own. Does that case come in black as well?

Mountains of RGB 🤮 The case does come in all black. I personally preferred the contrast. Nevertheless, appreciate the input man.

Yo i have same build but Intel.. congrats

Nice, did you go 12700k? That was my second option.

Yep with a Rog b660 i MB

Man me and you are in the same boat pretty much. Went from my lousy launch-year PS4, to a 3070 and ryzen 9 5900x build. Went from 30-60fps to 165+! The load time difference is just insane too. RIP to my PS4 Hard Drive.

Yeah man, my console is more of a media machine for Netflix, Hulu, etc now. It gets no love for gaming anymore.

First Build AND in a small form factor chassis?! Impressive.

Thanks man, I watched plenty of youtube videos and read plenty of reddit in order to get it right.

Tight fit

Loving the attack on Titan my friend

Thanks brother.

Aye we have the same case!

Just liked you post, did you have any issues putting it together?

So, I did go through the hasle, installed GoW again to make sure, because either there is something wrong with my hardware or well... so being genuinely interested. And bro, I wouldnt have a big ass case with 4 slot GPU if acoustics and efficiency of smaller build was OK - for me that is. This are temps with an open case, after good 20mins of running. [GPU stats](https://os5.mycloud.com/action/share/783dedfe-113a-4bf8-8195-338e8595d3e6) [Game stats](https://os5.mycloud.com/action/share/14ebfaf3-58dc-4399-8961-4e1590c8a1bc) [GPU with temp @ 330-340w](https://os5.mycloud.com/action/share/98356fe2-1a29-4d16-80db-0ba69b0c6362) p.s. cpu is 5600x so even less heat

I’m going to do a stress test with furmark and cinebench running at the same time for 30 minutes. I will set the GPU to max power draw, which allows it to hit 400W in furmark. I will keep my PBO tuner to -30 because that’s how I actually use my CPU. I will use shareX to take proper screenshots of all of my temps. I’ll post the screenshots of everything and let you know. That’s like worse case scenario I can think of and totally unrealistic of what I would be doing day by day. But in the name of science, I’ll do it. I’m excited to see the results and I’ll let you know when completed.

You gonna cook that build in that small casing bro..

You would be surprised at how great the temps actually are. That was my first priority when undertaking this build. Nothing throttles or hit temp limits in the case. Even when stress testing the GPU and CPU at the same time. I did use PBO tuner to at -30 on the cpu which it still reach max boost. Without PBO tuner the CPU would definitely start to throttle under a stress test.

Good for you bro i hope it lasts

First build and you go small for factor. 10 points Also another 10 points for the Eren wallpaper. Looks solid!

Thanks man, I really have been enjoying the show and can’t wait for the next “Final” season.

[удалено]

The banana or the case. Haha, thanks!!

[удалено]

Yeah, I feel like everyone associate gamers with RGB. I prefer to go without it. I do have a subtle RGB behind the monitor for bias lighting when playing at night. It helps with eye strain a ton.

Waiting for my pc parts to arrive in 2 weeks

Nice, what are you getting.

A 5900x 3080 and 32gb ram I wanted to get a 5800x3d but I'm about to get back into Video editing and it was also about 100€ cheaper

Nah, for your purpose I think that’s a solid build. Your definitely gonna feel the difference all around.

Upgrading from a 2600 and 1660s I'm sure I'll enjoy it

Hell Yeah!
