[@DengueBurger]

There is the NR200/p, but I much prefer the square look of this + the handle versus the more rounded look of the NR200.

[@Adrienne_Quelle]

Seeing my actual build's performance pieces (12600k, 3070) in an ITX build makes me definitely wanna keep them around once I upgrade down the line, for a "spare parts build" like this as you called it, and get them in a smaller case. Definitely keeping the GPU no matter what, it's an EVGA from their last series of GPUs. o7

[@shawner7340]

oh man, really want to build in this now. May need to update my htpc in this

[@Jwalker76]

About time some company made an affordable itx case. I mean this will sell well with little competition. My advice is to check out how much space you have with your CPU cooler before buying a GPU so you don't get burnt. Every time I see a streamer build a itx build they have to swap parts because something doesn't fit.

[@mr.a9394]

You're great zach

[@Guy_that_exists]

the sama im01 is a really good case if you don't want to pay extra for any components, it can fit a matx motherboard and an atx psu at the same time, the size is in between itx and matx

[@Ja_nhe]

These videos are an endless loop

[@user-om7te3gl7h]

Hello Zach, would you please make a video about what to do after you build a pc, and how to benchmark and test hardwares like ram and cpu, thank you big fan love your videos.

[@vladimirbondzic5850]

Oh, Zach this is like a holiday for me

[@Rullino32]

You can try using a blower card since they work well in ITX builds, IDK if it'll perform better or worse, but hopefully this comment could be helpful, you could also try undervolting it for better temperatures, that's up to you on whether it's worth it or not.

[@narutoandhinata130]

talking about gpu airflow, you can try to mount the 12v pwm blower type fan to suck the cold air from bottom case and then blow the gpu card directly to the rear side.

Zach, A big fan of your and will be forever. Please make a 500$ Performance over aesthetics it should be the best budget king that even Spudd Gaming and Elijah Labs can’t beat. Wish you all the best for this!😊

[@randomtrainboy]

Note: Use the Darkrock PX4 for cooling. It is much smaller and cheaper than the assassin. Also get the 12600kf to get a little more performance and it lowers the budget a lil.

[@ribeirinhu]

with the fans that way, it will enter from the front and get sucked in immediately from the top, i think the best is cpu cooler rear intake, top and front exaust

[@filipbjornerback1568]

Okay so i built a pc back in 2023 with the following specs: 32gb 3600mhz ram ddr4 Ryzen 7 5800x Rx 6800 850w psu B550M motherboard for Smart Access Memory And my friend liked this pc and decided to buy the similar specs. So he got the same specs and that pc performs so much worse than mine, all his parts were brand new, everything works fine, tried benchmark programs he got better score than me but when it comes to gaming his pc just doesnt perform, we tried games like Rainbow six siege, Call of duty and Counterstrike, with all low settings and stretched 4:3 1440x1080 he got just over 200 fps, which is criminally bad. I play 1440p and get over 300 so its a huge difference. I tried to fix his pc by getting the newest BIOS, troubleshooted RAM, Newest chipsets for the parts, fresh windows, Optimized windows (powerplans, reduced amount af backgrounda apps) Didnt mention it but XMP is also enabled for both of us. I've tried all the things i am capable of that is why i am reaching out to the community for help. I tried taking out his gpu and placed it in my pc to see how it performs in 1440p and it performs well so the GPU is maybe out of the equation? What i am suspecting is maybe a poor CPU? Just because of the fact that the pc performed better in 1440p than 1080p. And from what i know 1440p puts less stress on cpu and more on the gpu. So please help me with this problem, what could it be? Faulty psu? Bad motherboard? What to do? What to replace?

Hey zach, when upgrading your cpu in terms of price to performance, is it better to upgrade the generation or the cores. e.g. i5 12 gen to i5 13 gen, or i5 12 gen to i7 12 gen. love the content btw

[@Adam-hd6ye]

Love ur vids I'm learning a lot from them! I have a question for you is it safe to put Lian Li Strimer Plus V2 12VHPWR 3x 8 PIN for ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 im still slightly confused about cables but my understanding is that lian gives 450w and recommended for gpu is quad pin which would make it 600w
