Lunchbox 3.0 Gaming PC

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

It's almost like every single tech KZbinr decided to do a Mini ITX build with DeepCool parts at the exact same time.

[@inmypaants]

That’s what happens when a company sends out tons of hardware and said hardware is actually interesting. In this case the price point and functionality is interesting.

[@baconbreadwithbacon]

@@inmypaants The price is like that for now but if it gets popular, they'll up the MSRP. For example, the NR200 started at around 80 and ended up being 130 on average. This case if it becomes popular will definitely be 120. Still worth the money compared to all the greedy fucks selling itx cases for over 200.

[@FrodeBergetonNilsen]

It is like they all were shipped one for free, under NDA. Given their low costs, this is awesome marketing, for a super low costs. It goes without saying, that almost every reviewer actually made a video about this, because they all seem to like the case.

[@maximus3294]

​@@baconbreadwithbaconokay, pump the brakes. not everyone is cooler master or deepcool, who can mass-manufacture their cases and sell them that cheap and still be profitable. the niche sff market is still very much community-driven with a lot of individuals designing cases. it's not greedy to want to make a margin on something as well-engineered as the Formd T1, for example.

[@baconbreadwithbacon]

@@maximus3294 There are smaller companies in Asia that make high quality itx cases for 120. It's all greed when these supposedly low volume companies ask for 200. It's nonsense. I'm tired of people defending these companies. Many of these low volume companies use the same OEM. They're either stupid and like getting ripped off or they're greedy.

[@hitori_gurashi]

aesthetic > rgb love the minimalist vibe of this pc

[@riflesmcknight9456]

This looks fantastic. I really appreciate you adding the noise test section, as excessive pc noise drives me completely nuts. I've watched all your build videos, but this one really looks like the one I want to build.

[@tongoso]

More budget friendly and yet super sleek looking, thank you for this one, I'm shocked with those amazing temps!

[@Ludango69]

I was waiting for a build in this case! That's exactly what I planning for my build except for the GPU. Looks amazing and very portable, and that's what I looking for!! 10/10!!!

[@shooby02]

For those who don't like (like me) glass panels, there is the "Deepcool Air Panel 100" as an accessory, available in white and black of course

[@Dean.Michael.Winchester]

Got link for the product?

[@jjpark98]

THANK YOU for specifying that you can fit a 310mm GPU in this case. Seeing builds and pictures, it looked like you could but I wasn't sure. Every review video I've seen never even bothered to test if this was the case. Now I know! I have a Red Dragon 6800xt which is 310mm and I thought I coudln't fit it in that case.

[@fidenciociprian6151]

Hey, how much more clearance does it have from the front panel since I want to put a 7900 xt🎉 sapphire pulse which is 313 millimeters

[@emiel255]

In the SFF community seeing how big GPU’s have become nowadays it is one of the most important dimensions to mention in a video I think

[@danielhulan3058]

@Devyn Johnston, I really like your channel. You provide a very elegant touch to your builds. You don't rely on flashy visual and auditory effects like other channels do. You keep it simple, and your builds speak to the quality of your channel. Like I said, your builds are elegant. Keep it up!

[@jmal]

Exactly the air cooler I was thinking of when I saw the new case! Great video as usual, Devyn! As for the ATX PSU, Enermax has one called the Revolution D.F. 12. What's unique about theirs is that it's ATX-sized, but lengthwise it's shorter than an SFX-L PSU (122mm vs. 130mm). It also has braided cables and ATX 3.0/12VHPWR support. Not being able to install the front case fan aside, I think this PSU is perfect for the CH160, G200, and other such lunchbox cases.

[@The11devans]

I'm very excited about this case. Great layout, component support, cooling, and aesthetics, all for $70. And your build is a beautiful showcase of its potential.

[@nathan-qx2ep]

Nice, this case fits exactly what I was looking for: small "portable" and able to fit atx psu with smaller gpus.

[@JasonJtran]

Usually I skim build videos because my adhd but you were very concise and your shots were beautiful. Great video!

[@KurosuGon]

Try watching at 2x speed. KZbin is so boring for me at regular speed. But I binge/watch a ton at 2x speed because it’s more compelling and more info per minute that way.

[@lasolasolaso]

love ur videos! do u have any guides on building pcs for video editing, 3d work, etc?

[@DDHDTV]

The Asus Dual is great. I have the same model as a 7800XT. The Ch160 immediatly cought my attention. I'm more of a mATX kinda guy, which is like 0-drawbacks to a fullATX build, but this case is nice! Was already a big fan of the CH370, a mATX build with a white exterior and black interior. I'ts gonna be a long time until I upgrade again, but this will be considered. In the r/mffpc scene, the AP201 is extremely popular, similar to teh hype fo the o11 dynamic back then. This CH160 is essentially that, just a bit smaller again, but still fits everything. I think this is gonna be super popular

[@xxMyGodIsaDJxx]

Great capabilities, great pricing Seems like a good contender in sff world

[@daviddamasceno6063]

I really liked that case. Most small cases like that have no dust filter, which is a deal breaker for me. This one not only has a beautiful glass panel on one side, but has dust filters on the other side, plus on top and bottom. It really is one I will strongly consider if I ever end up building a small PC.

[@necotots]

I love how minimalistic the aesthetics of this build ❤

[@EksCelle]

This case looks really awesome but I wish it was available with a solid or mesh side panel rather than glass. I would definitely pick one up then.

[@changtruong7617]

perfect case. Clean simple layout.

[@constantinosschinas4503]

6:50 would an ATX Corsair RMx Shift solve the cable clearance issue? It has cables on the side, not back. I think it must fit because the case is pretty wide.

[@constantinosschinas4503]

I want this vertically mounted with top back panel access. This way, it will make more sense, space saving wise.

[@Nightbanger89]

3:32 "So, I genuinely.. kinda.. love this case" 😂

[@mxlolo]

I think the power wire looks a little weird.

[@eieaenriquez7391]

Thanks for this devyn! This video would really help with my new build

[@w4hid]

Please build a 20 liter Lunch Box pc with Jonsbo / Jonsplus Z20 case. The case looks absolutely stunning and its a matx case.

[@AndyMitchellUK26]

I would like to see this case with a mesh front panel. As it has a handle, I would be worried about the glass being broken every time I moved it (my current ITX build is portable and is moved around from time to time). Other than that, it's a solid case - especially at that price point.

[@dangerfield85]

I need to see this case with the U12A

[@JDSPonYT]

This is basically the metal version of the 3D Printed BeamCase. Cool stuff

[@theshakyproject2971]

Yay! Another lunchbox build! My favorite! :)

[@aqibjaved5203]

What intake and exhaust fan did you use? The link in the description is not working. I am building the same pc. Thanks for the nice video.

[@Bam3xOfficial]

Been waiting for your build. ❤

[@gamerdaddy2570]

i built a pc in this case with a 4080 super founders edition and ak620 digital cooler. GPU load temps 55c and cpu 65c while gaming for hours. There is no other extra fan in my case.

[@gamerdaddy2570]

that FE gpu is actually 305mm not 310mm. Thats what nvidia site says and i measured it myself.

[@agarcia8800]

That thing is huge for ITX standards when compared the ghost and formd cases

[@paw420]

now im sold, 310mm still can be fits in, thanks!

[@tikas408]

Watching this 4 months later and the case is no longer for sale. Out of stock :(((

[@wpnbuff]

God Bless

[@andrewkim1285]

I love the build. I will use it when I build mine. However, I thinks the air flow should be opposite direction. The front fan should be exhaust fan so it can also suck out hot air from the GPU. Also you will not need the near fan.

[@aqibjaved5203]

do you know which fan he used?

[@bd47]

More micro-ATX please. I really want a small form factor but want to add a 10 gigabit NIC as well.

[@UTurn539]

I really like this case specifically, and I think it'll be my next project. I'm switching from mATX to ITX bc I find mATX to still be way too large. A question I had was about the CPU cooler, I feel like the AK620 is a bit overkill there, especially bc I will only be using a 65watts CPU. What do you reckon? Would a AK500/500S or even AK400 do the job?

[@anaysurana3140]

the sff goat back with another banger build.

[@ShaunaJagan]

Devyn, do you have plans of checking the Asrock a620i? It seems to be a nice board

[@AbdhullahKadar]

sick case man, gonna build my first pc in a couple months and this case will fit like a glove for the gigabyte 4070ti

[@krazyfrog]

10:00 Not surprised by the bent AK620. My first Deepcool air cooler was also bent sideways. The quality control is abysmal.

[@BulborbStare]

Is there any good alternatives to this case that fits identical hardware? It's sold out everywhere I looked. Also, the link to the fans is broken. What types of case fans would be doable?

[@trg1408]

I think this will have to be my first build... If I don't build in the CH370. Aside from me needing something small to fit on my desk, I love the minimalism, portability and compact nature of this build. This build has everything I'm looking at aside from the CPU, thinking I'll get the Ryzen 9 7900 instead and the lack of RGB puts me just under my budget.

[@PapaSanDeco]

Great build! I’m thinking about replacing my Dan A4 with this. Only problem is it won’t be in store until december

[@CHA0SBLEEDS]

Weird nobody is showing any builds with an ATX power supply (just saying it fits) which I feel is what most people who'd be interested in buying this case would be using or they'd just another case (like the NR200P)

[@emiel255]

That’s because an ATX PSU will limit a lot of dimensions of other components (like explained with the GPU in this video) and therefore it is wise and (generally something that most SFF builders do anyway) to put in an SFX(L) PSU. Furthermore for a very long time now (since the Corsair SF750 came out) you don’t need an ATX PSU to have a lot of wattage. Corsair just came out with an SFX 1000 watt PSU and last year I believe you can even buy an SFX PSU with 1100 and 1300 watt

[@CHA0SBLEEDS]

​@@emiel255 Not the point I was making. If it supports ATX PSU's, but nobody wants to build with one in the case because, "reasons" then it only supports it on paper. That said I did find videos later that showed full ATX builds, but just as that happened I ended up getting a 3080ti which wouldn't fit in the case with an ATX PSU. I could make it fit, but this case can't be easily returned to retailers near me so I opted to just keep my case.

[@emiel255]

@ aah I see then I misunderstood sorry about that!👊🏽 and I agree with what you said it’s only a spec on paper but it’s just too limiting to other components and therefore not really worth it

[@domm3505]

Really liking this case. I'd consider swapping to this case if it had a vented or mesh side panel option. Is there an option or is it only glass?

[@krystianzelazny5069]

Cool video and all other your ITX builds. Im kind of bored of my current build o11 mini, but i want to build somethink compact, new and smaller. I have already make a shopping list. Thank you for your share

[@liamsmurthwaite9434]

should try find a way to hook a portable screen up to a small itx case to have a portable desktop to flex on gaming laptops (not very hard already tbh)

[@kensg]

As usual Devyn another great build, but I watch your videos and I want to re-build my Boxx.😆 Great job bruh💯

[@gamebroskii438]

I just built my first mini itx pc in the K38 case this is sick too.

[@fidenciociprian6151]

Hey, Devyn, I want to know if a 313 millimeter gpu like the 7900 xt sapphires pulse will since at 8:03 u said a 310 mm will fit with a few millimeters extra i just want to know if those are arounfd 3mm extra so i can fit the 7900 xt sapphire pulse 😂

[@TigonIII]

What if you used an ATX PSU with the modular cables coming out on it's side, then the cables wouldn't interfere with the GPU at the bottom.

[@dukeradwardthe5th843]

I just got rid of my DeepCool PSU that had the same squared mesh pattern, looks so siiick

[@blogJM]

Maybe it's just me but that pigtail PSU extension ruined it for me. I guess there will always be comromise but I'd rather prefer it if they place the C14 connector vertically on the bottom right side of the PCIE slots.

[@Saakshath05]

Nice build 👌 Can i know which overlay software you use for CPU, GPU temps ?

[@guysolomon7904]

Thank you for confirming the ASUS TUF fits - pretty sure they just tested it as the largest GPU to drop in and set its dimensions as the limit - but I was confused and now I know!

[@mpdx0]

Great to see a build using a different cooler than the assassin 4 lol. Hoping to see someone put a thermalright phantom spirit in it!

[@EMU1]

I would have liked to see a comparison between the G200 (Lunchbox 2.0 video). The cases are VERY similar, and I think it would be good to know what is better/worse about each option. I have the G200, which your video helped me decide to get, but there are a couple features that I like on this case so have been thinking about swapping over (less airflow restriction, option for front fan and SFX mounting, better I/O). The one thing that I really dont like on this case is the tempered glass side panel, if they had a mesh panel I would have ordered it already.

[@ChitonIV]

Asrock's A620 ITX board has two NVME slots.

[@idealwookie]

Did you do any undervolting on your cpu? Great build!

[@Jeff_Jaguar]

Man I just got an NR200 but I'm really feeling this a little more

[@hcarpe1977]

@Devyn love you channel and builds. This one in particular. The FE card you managed to squeeze in was 310mm, do you think the MSI 4080 SUPER EXPERT into this case? Specifications says its 312mm in length.

[@whatjawsh4744]

Can't find this case anywhere

[@jimiyu.]

deepcool was sanctioned by the us government, not available in the us anymore

[@Takiscertified]

Would you recommend the deepcool ak400 for this build? Personally I feel like the 620 is just to bulky as well as going for that digital style too.

[@xilllllix]

beautiful case! def going to be my next one

[@MrWalldos]

This case so big...hmm, its look like he can fit mATX motherboard too, not only mini-itx. Do you try put mATX to this big boy?

[@BoomKarthusUlt]

why did DeepCool have to get sanctioned 😭 such a nice case

[@b-bears]

nooo i cant get it, deepcool is banned :/

[@DaMarakuHD]

i wonder why not a rx 7800xt? i know nvidia rules with RT but it seems like amd scores similarly if not better at a similar or lower price then Nvidia without RT

[@liberteus]

Case looks cool, disappointed that deepcool decided against a few centimeters at the from to actually fit larger cards and or do proper cable management. Anyways. I'll keep an eye on it

[@Dinosareformen]

Hi Devyn! I want to ask you, from the videos you have, what colud be a good build for my pc? I have a case called obsidian 250D 😀

[@fleshir]

Hey, so I went with an RM750e psu. I was wondering, does a fan for thebexhaust still fit and also, what's the maximum size I can put? Thanks

[@alchemistslab7]

Digging the digital display air cooler.. This case is slowly winning me over for the next build. Hopefully Intel doesn't s*** the bed with this next gen.

[@im_a_blobfish]

do you think a 3090 fe could fit in? (313mm) possibly without front dust filter and front fans if it makes any difference at all

[@Kristof_InsertRandomText]

Would Deepcools 120mm Watercoolers work in this case I wonder? The LS320 or the LE300

[@mesut7825]

Hey. Which app do you use for in-game system monitoring? I hate to use Rivatuner becasuse it doesn't work in EA games..

[@Dr.D00p]

Are you certain the FE 4080/90 will only fit with the heatsink removed? Another video has one being fitted with the same cooler in situ

[@Thereisnogodlmaoo]

What’s the build cost

[@devyn.johnston]

$1430

[@Тополиныйпух-ъ8с]

What software do you use to display with widget performance monitor? Thank you!

[@ArdyIRL]

I feel like with some modifications it would be possible to fit an matx motherboard in there with 2 pcie slots. would need to rotate the psu 90deg, but I think that could be clutch for content creators who want to use capture cards alongside a 2 slot GPU

[@kingofeveryfries]

the CH160 is the best "budget?" mini itx case

[@hwelp]

I honestly think that the air cooler should be taking in air from the back rather than taking the hot air from the gpu.

[@User_2051]

I wanna build this exact system only different would be the motherboard maaaaybe, I hate the silver io shields. Asrock has an a620i board with a black built in io shield

[@sanzeNCSGO]

Would this be good to offload all the streaming resources on this PC and have a better gaming PC plugged into the capture card in this build I'd want to install?

[@iiTzBlizzyy]

whats that pegboard in the back?

[@Mike-pd6np]

Idk about that build quality... I've seen some other videos on the case and it's definitely cheap for a reason. that being said, it's still an amazing budget case.

[@Hootx-v6j]

Can you use a AIO with this case

[@HonestHans365]

And red flags for not buying this case e.g you got a 4080?

[@moyen3780]

Why there's no Intel ITX build?

[@sexinagymama]

Can you somehow make it vertical? SFF should be like Ncore 100 MAX as vertically using space does not really matter on a desk but if its "sideways" the length is just a few inch smaller than a normal ATX case. I wanted to buy an Ncore 100 MAX but for an 7800X3D CPU the AIO seems bad, it would be way too loud and hot also thinking of using low profile air cooler in an Ncore 100MAX and using some beefy fan at the top instead of the AIO? I am curious if that can be done and what would be the results.
