Console sized 8-Core Gaming BEAST | RTX 3080 Mini-ITX Gaming PC Build

[@SlotHits777]

for a build like that, make sure you get the biggest storage drive you plan to use long term, bc it’ll be a pain later to upgrade with that build.

[@ThaVillaMan]

Agreed. That’s why I went with 2TB

[@chai-and-tea]

Sliger cases are examples of phenomenal craftsmanship. Expensive, but great.

[@Safetytrousers]

If you have challenged cooling like this the thing to do is use PBO and set a temperature limit of your choosing for it in the BIOS. You can't set a temp limit for a manual overlock. And set a lower than stock voltage for it (under 1.3v).

[@ThaVillaMan]

Undervolting worked, so I don’t think I need to set a temperature ceiling. I’m ok with the temps as they are. Thanks for the tip

[@Dantestoussaint]

Very nice rig man! I'm running a 5800x with a 360 AIO and it still gets pretty warm under full load. They're super hot little beasts! Any reason why the 5600x wouldn't be a better option in this build? About to build in the Velka 7 and thinking the 5600x will be a better bet with that cooling set up.

[@mohamedahmed1023]

Damn that's an impressive build. Didn't know you were a PC building enthusiast as well. You know your stuff. There's something fun about the balancing act between thermals, noise, and performance one needs to manage when building in an sff enclosure.

[@SabeTheApple]

Is the fan on the heat sink the right way? Shouldn't you be blowing heat away from the cpu and towards the fins and out the case?

[@NOSfusion]

If you added a backplate to the motherboard / cooler you can shave off a few more degrees. You can snag one for like $9

[@shbdh1]

[@fredrichardson9761]

I've been looking at this case and I was wondering if it could handle a high end graphics card - well you answered that! Great video, really well explained and very easy to follow and the rig is awesome! Maybe you can answer a question - what do you think about traveling with a rig like this? That is actually my use case - I'd like to put the whole thing in a backpack. Would it need a hard case?

[@valentineli305]

At 08:48 you said you reverted PCIE 4.0 to 3.0 in BIOS for both GPU and SSD to make riser work. But at 10:23 the read speed of your M.2 SSD is close to 5gb/s, clearly a PCIE Gen 4 speed. How is it possible?

[@karthikvenketaraman181]

I'm pretty sure he was wrong about the nvme ssd running at 3.0 speeds. Why would the GPU riser cable affect the nvme drive?

[@betfoyet]

I made a Build on a Sliger case I used a ASRock x570 itx/tb3 Ryzen 9 3900XT EVGA 3080 And noctua fans... Among other parts It's always a flex between friends when it smokes the competition with a reduced size

[@ThaVillaMan]

Very nice 💪🏾

[@elyad67]

Nice one bro, did a similar mini itx build but with a 3070Ti no regrets!!

[@BraveGuardian]

2:10 installed fan on wrong side, not to mentioned 2 other fans were also installed for exhaust.

[@ThaVillaMan]

Actually it’s been found by many people using this cooler that intake config results in better cooling. I have one side of the case doing intake (CPU & GPU fans), while the 2 fans on the other side does exhaust, since getting rid of hot air is very important

[@BraveGuardian]

@@ThaVillaMan I wouldn't say that you can't put your cooler for sucking hot heat sink air to the board but 2 of the other fans is for exhaust making no air to go inside the case to cool components how's that good?

[@sph3reofpain]

I'm glad you finally flexed that PC of yours. That's all I use. Its the only platform capable of taking full advantage of a lot of the cutting edge 4k and 8k televisions out there and even breathing new life into old 1080p ones as well.

[@chai-and-tea]

Not to mention since the PC platform is more of an open marketplace, games are significantly cheaper than their console counterparts, particularly if you wait for a sale that seems to happen every other month.

[@tazmania2984]

I recently upgraded to a 5900x / 3080ti playing on a 1440p 144hz monitor. Should I upgrade to 1440p 240hz or maybe 4k 144hz monitor when it becomes available? I've had to under lock the GPU so I don't see a bottleneck.

[@robertfrayer6711]

Wonder if I could fit an AIO in it. Some games on steam like POE and FF7 remake makes a cpu get hot as heck.

[@ThaVillaMan]

Don’t see that being feasible unless there’s no GPU in there

[@04dram04]

I wonder is there is a way to imporve the cooling more. I saa a little more wiggle room in that case

[@thatsalrightwithmeman7867]

The only thing that would worry me is the temps

[@jbol2454]

[@24yrukdesigner]

How do u open these cases lol ???

[@OneroomBeatz]

Since the price inflations with the graphic cards, I think you're better off getting a high end laptop. I still have my RTX 2070 laptop from 2020 and does what it needs to. I connect it more to a tv or as a desktop.

[@MarvelousMorrion]

That build is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@plextime590]

Used this same case with a 10-400 cpu and evga sc2 1080ti. Loved the compact size, but was much hotter in this little case. Also had to tape in my 4tb 2.5 drive since there are no mounts for 2.5 or 3.5 drives. Looking at a SV540 w/ 5600x and water cooling next to have a small form factor, but better cooling and more room for 2.5 drives. Maybe do a build for me with APU and 240 liquid cooler once the APU's get a little better.

[@face7772]

Those are not low profile MEMs, LPX are regular size DDR4. Low profile DDR4 are about half the height.

[@teamofone1219]

Never put a pc this small in a confined space though for temps reasons.

[@simonsol5084]

would a small graphics card aero 3060 and a liquid cooling in the same chamber be good choice for temps?

[@pavelgorlachuk1460]

Simon, the liquid cooling is not a magical thing, it just allows you to use a bigger radiator for heat dissipation. Then you want to compare this Alpenfohn 120mm vs the liquid cooling solution. Presumably this will be a 120mm rad, almost of the same size as the aircooler, so the difference is marginal. Small benefit: downdraft cooler also slightly cools the VRM heatsinks.

[@stormAster720]

What do you think about throwing some liquid metal on both the cpu and gpu? I can't 100% remember how many degrees c you would drop though.

Don't do it, it will get hardly any improvement over a good paste, and it will stain your IHS to buggery. You will never get it totally clean.

[@pavelgorlachuk1460]

Hey ThaVillaman, just wonder why do you think you need 750W PSU. 322+118=440W, so even 600W will be enough. Also, not sure your slim Noctua case fans contribute much in this config - can you compare the temps with gpu fan speed fixed (with and without those case fans)? Overall great build, big fan of those SFF cases. Cheers.

[@denishachan3941]

Psu is most efficient at half load, So technically he should have used 440 x 2 = 880 w psu, But upto 65-70% load things are fine as long as it's good psu.

[@anthonysimpson9201]

Does the 3080 support or is able to passthrough Dolby Vision, HDR10+, Atmos, DTS and all the other home theater features you'd typically get with the consoles? Keep the content coming

[@reviewforthetube6485]

Hey villaman I heard you got the Sony a90j? I wanted to let you know before you do any comparisons as I know you do it mostly on KZbin. just wanted to let you know the a90j will not change to wide color space in KZbin automatically. you have to force it to bt2020 Vincent from HDTV test covered this. Usually auto will do it by itself when you have colorspace set to auto but not on the a90j with the KZbin app. just want you to know so you don't do the comparison and go wait the a90j color isn't as saturated when in fact it is. Its just auto doesn't work with the KZbin in hdr on the a90j. You have to physically change it to bt2020. I wanted to let you know that in advance. To many people on KZbin don't know this and aren't realizing it. Just like abt comparison,I they didn't switch it on the Sony and it makes people see false information in comparisons. Lg and Samsung and eveb past Sony tvs when in auto they go to wide color so just want to let you kneo for your comparisons to make sure it's in wide which is bt2020 on the Sony. Vincent had to do it also and he says it is correct when turning it on with hdr content on KZbin.

[@ThaVillaMan]

Hey! Thanks for the tip. I did get the A90J and I’m curious about the bug. I usually use a Panasonic UB820 Blu ray player’s built KZbin app so both TVs have the same input, but I’ll do some digging to see how it would affect me. Thanks for the heads up!

[@reviewforthetube6485]

@@ThaVillaMan yeah it may not do it with the Blu ray it seems to be only the internal app so you should be good. Just in case switch from auto to bt 2020 while running content see if you see a difference if you don't then all good. Sony will def refine the KZbin app and update it sometime I know that for sure. I just want the comspridons to be fair to many people don't know how to work the tv correctly and don't realize to check if anything is off. But man oh man its an absolutely stunning tv the detail the sharpness and the color are all on pint and the small highlights are so nice. Gives such a 3 dimensional effect. The shadow detail is insane also.

[@reviewforthetube6485]

@@ThaVillaMan I think what I love about Sony is just how you can get any picture you want. Super accurate or super colorful. Black adjust can give a ton of extra depth and then live color can add more saturation it's just it can do anything. Also what differs in color between lg and Sony is that Sony has so much detail within the color. It's jdut something special to watch never been this impressed by an oled with thus much dynamic range. I literally ahd my c1 for 2 weeks and had to return it for the a90j after I found out just how good it was from John and the guys that have been around for a long time. When Vincent and John and others told me it's the best image/processing they have seen out of all the years they have done this. I knew I had to get it lol.

[@kientrung.nguyen]

I think you set the CPU fan pulling hot air instead of pushing air through radiator. That's very weird setup

[@TheJamesCraft]

This CPU cooler come preassembled like that but it does run better if you flip the fan to draw colder air.

I personally think the Fractal Design Node 202 is a much better looking case but other than that, this is pretty awesome 💪🏾

[@ionamygdalon2263]

It is important that we compare apples with apples. Let me explain. The PS5 and the Xbox Series X cost about $500 Moreover they have a RDNA2 GPU And an AMD Zen 2 CPU Thus we would have to make a PC build of a 6700 XT 3600 We would then need to compare both FPS and Image Quality. FPS alone is not a measure of how powerful a gaming PC or a console is. Try playing Cyberpunk on PC at 4K with all settings turned as Low as possible. I think that for the money you pay, a console is a good value for money. On the other hand, if you belong to the 0.01% of the entire human population and were NOT negatively affected by the COVID Pandemic and can spend the amount of 5 consoles or more... In that case PC gaming is for you.

[@ThaVillaMan]

I can’t say I’m the typical gamer plus my KZbin channel is a business with some tax benefits 🤷🏾‍♂️ That said, console gaming has always been more economical. My aim won’t this build wasn’t bang for the bug it was just all bang
