That front panel looks incredible, I had never heard of Jake before but now that I've had a peek at the website I'm getting some ideas for my build.

could you share some information about installation and setup of that 5.5inch display?

[@Glerox]

I bought the screen on Amazon, you can find it on the video description. It fits perfectly in the pre-built hole in this case, no modification needed! It connects via included USB-A and HDMI cables on the back of the motherboard. It basically works as a second screen in Windows. The software I used to make the custom layout is AIDA64.

[@humain_humain1465]

[@bosco008]

Wait wait wait. I'm new to PC building, but are you telling me that tiny little slab of plastic that looks like a naked motherboard was the GPU, and the rest of the material you removed was just for cooling??!?! If that's correct, my mind is officially blown.

Yes in fact the GPU is even smaller. It's the small chip that you see me put thermal compound on it!

[@AnalystAndy]

You spend almost one year. Jup. This is realistic. And a great effort. I was playing around for a couple of weeks with my own custom water cooling. It was a pain in the ass. And costly. And also not entirely quiet. the radiator also has fans. Bigger and slower fans than your typical CPU cooler, but still ;-) I will gladly stick with air cooling.

[@Glerox]

Yeah good idea haha. Watercooling is often not worth it unless you're having fun with troubleshooting lol or if you want the absolute best perfomance.

It turned out to be a beautiful PC, but the processor temperature confuses me... At 30% load the processor temperature is 70-85 degrees, which is very high

[@codeblue6925]

While that is higher than expected its not problematically high, most cpus and gpus these days can go to close to 95 without any real issue

Yeah Zen 4 cpus are programmed to run the fastest they can before reaching 95c and then throttle down... you'll see most zen 4 builds run at that temperature

Could you share your AIDA64 sensor panel? Just ordered the display and contacted Jake for the front panel. Also ordered a usb 2.0 to HDMI to put inside the case instead of plugging it in the rear of the 4090. My 4090 is just air cooled for the maintenance simplicity, NZXT Kraken z53 AIO on the 5950x dated CPU.

[@str8chillaxin]

Nice job. Although I am curious why you chose the 7700X as opposed to the 7800X3D. The power draw is pretty close but gaming performance is much better at very little extra cost

[@wolfbrother9025]

Some ppl just don't want to deal with even the few extra degrees and that's ok

[@Glerox]

I would have chosen the 7800X3D but when I started the build a year ago it was not available!

[@str8chillaxin]

@@Glerox thx for clarifying that makes sense

[@Skratch63]

Id love to see the process of getting the custom screen done on your case. I had a bout of thermal issues with my gpu a while ago and it has made me crazy anal about monitoring temps in every way possible. Any videos or literature on how y oh achieved this?

[@medowucha]

Also, on another topic - the title: Yes, SFF PC building can be very, VERY painful. Eg. just making the mistake of using an SFX-L PSU instead of a "regular" SFX one can have a huge impact on how much your fingers gonna hurt. And yeah, you dont want to repeat that hurt, so you rather by the more expensive SFX than the SFX-L option. Worse, you actually upgrade to a much more expensive SFX one, because you need the extra 3 cm of space .. Yeah, SFF PC builders oughta be masochists xD (talking from experience: Had to replace the PSU in my S300 liquid cooling mod build because the SFX-L would block most of the space; it worked very well inside the S400, but in the S300? nope. THAT HURT AF.)

Congratulations on your impressive build. May I ask how much it cost you? I am curious to know why you chose not to bend the tubing.

[@Glerox]

Hey thanks! It was around 5K CAD at the time of building. I did not need to bend the tubing because I found a way to put it in straight lines. Also, a bend takes a lot of space and would not fit easily in that case. The 90 degrees fittings take way less space.

[@Glerox]

No, once I replaced the O-ring correctly, it was working fine. It's not a good quality part since it's made by a random chinese company, but I haven't find a better quality option. Also make sure to have a reservoir cylinder to fill it because there is no reservoir in it.

[@BANIAAAAK]

Looks awesome dude. but you could still buy a high end GPU for Small form Factor

[@Glerox]

Have you found an RTX 4090 that would fit in this case?

[@abyx5108]

Great build! I have a similar combo with a 7700 with a rx 7900xtx i have noticed that the cpu tends to heat up on games like cyberpunk (77 -84 C) Do you think its an expected temp for this CPU or would it be because of the small case of your pc? Cheers.

[@Glerox]

Ryzen 7000 processors are built to get to maximum performance until it reaches 90C and then stay there. So your temps are perfectly normal. With a bigger cooler it will stay as hot but offer better performance (marginally).

[@wackid2370]

Experts recommend lower temps for longet product lifespan

[@Guoenyi]

Not great but ok. Glerox used small CPU cooler because of the small case. 7000 series ryzen will boost as high as possible for the workload until thermal limit (other limits too but thermal will be hit first usually). You can get better temp with more capable cooler while doing the same work and it is generally recommended for longgevity of your system because hot components will "burn" nearby parts too.

They weren't available when I started this build last year. The 7800x3D would be a good fit for the small cooler because it has a low power consumption.

[@sephirotic87]

Cool build, but assuming from the GPU temperatures, I'm guessing your coolant temperature is dangerously high for your pump life, even mediocre blocks like bykski's have a DELTA to coolant not higher than 15c. At 70c, this mean your coolant is. probably in the mid to high 50's. A 240mm is not really adequate for a 400w load alone.

[@Glerox]

Yup I 100% agree lol. I was disappointed by the cooling performance of this loop. I will know for the future. An mATX size would have been better than a microATX build for the 4090.

[@armandobarbozaojeda6006]

What do you mean it is not working well at 70c? Then pump will be destroyed by the temps?

[@fuzzwho20]

A bit dramatic getting the stock graphics card in. Would have fit if you take the front plate off or cut a slit to let it protrude.
