Small Form Factor, Big Performance: Fractal Era 2 Gaming PC

[@buzzrot]

Man, that case looks beautiful, internals seem nice to build in as well

[@brianhansen6481]

I find your benchmarks a bit confusing, always a random mix of DLSS and other framegen tech. Hard to form an opinion on how this stacks up against other builds / PC's you review.

[@nimmy404]

Most of his benchmarks are like this, unfortunate because I'd love to see proper performance figures without frame gen/dlss

[@betag24cn]

this channel doesnt male reviews, this channel makes product presentations, you want a review, you must find another channel with that information

[@yoitsshiny8158]

u can watch gamer nexus for better benchmarks

[@arthurwintersight7868]

@@betag24cn - Yep. It's not "objectively how much faster is X than Y" - it's "can this run the games I play at a level that I'm happy with?" Form factor and price are much bigger considerations for his viewers, because this channel is about small mini-PCs that you can game on.

This setup looks attractive none of that super mega gamer RGB crap

Everyone should get the SAMA IM01, it supports up to 335mm GPU, MATX motherboard (best budget motherboards), and costs $55.

[@printicewhite]

I have it, and love.

[@Kevin-vh6nn]

at that price range you have to go MONTECH XR, ATX Mid-Tower PC Gaming Case supports all mobo's 3 total fans. this is currently cheaper on biggest selling site and has 2 more fans

[@budthecyborg4575]

@@Kevin-vh6nn Mid tower won't fit on my shelf. SAMA IM01 is special because it's the best budget SFF case on the market (and most likely one of the best SFF cases at any price).

[@juanrubio6132]

I appreciate your love for ITX builds it's my dream to have one. Never like those big tower PCs. Great work. Also it would be good that you put the total price to the parts list.

[@joshjjjjj25]

Are there any videos of people air cooling this case?

[@xxcrysad3000xx]

I'm gonna have to steal the metallic navy blue + woodgrain case idea but do it with an old optiplex or HP--just five or six coats of spray paint on the case and some vinyl wood panel sheets for the front, I think will look pretty sharp.

[@fatihgunce6688]

Great PC

[@heirtothethrone000]

I was looking at the LZMOD MINI A24-V6 1.0 for SFF build with the 4060 LP and this cpu.. It's like the A24-V5 except the gpu and gpu mounts in the back and it's 1.5 inches thicker but shorter in height and depth.

[@originalbadboy32]

At £200 its a little rich for my blood.

[@espanaftw]

Yeah. Really nice case but it's just to much for a case for me

[@yoitsshiny8158]

it includes a riser so thats why its 200

[@Kevin-vh6nn]

that mobo price is absolutely insane hard pass for me

[@jonzo22]

Nice build

[@stizmac88]

I am not crazy about the wood on this one. I like it on the mid tower they came out with a while back but on this one I would prefer if it was all blue. I really dig that color though.

[@salty3522]

love the Content!

[@cynicalcitizen]

Would you consider to start bench testing with cities skylines 2?

[@RexRapido]

a sapphire nitro 7900 xtx can fit in this case. perfect for steamOS + 4k tv

[@glenndeduque]

will this fit an Arctic Cooling Liquid Freezer 3 280 black, AIO LC Cooler 280mm?

[@some-replies]

Ugh thats a pretty case

[@betag24cn]

if they make a unit without the wood on top, it will sell well

[@oscarloria]

Mr Prime, can you recommend a good itx build under $800 for Black Friday? Thanks!

[@KrisRatliff75]

I would be interested in seeing this unit with a Radeon GPU running SteamOS if you'd be willing. Thank you for your channel!

[@kevinm8715]

He's got a ton of videos of different configs running SteamOS or the Linux distro equivalent. The case that you run it in won't make any difference.

[@cjs8619]

So the bottom cooler woill push air into the psu where the air is supose to exit?

[@oRicardoHetfield]

hopefully you can rotate the PSU with a SFX PSU!

[@pedrowilliams220]

Bro you need to do a review on the Yeston RTX 3050 6gb ASAP please! I think it's the best single slot SFF card right now.

[@DuberlyMazuelosBZero]

Hi, is there something similar to a TV stick but with usb-c video out?, I have a drawing display tablet, similar to a Wacom Cintiq and it can be powered with just one usb c cable, right now is plugget to my PC but I wanted to try something small and portable, do you have any recommendations? Maybe something like a powerful Android phone but without the screen

[@skatar01887]

Where's the link to the AIO & GPU? Not a fan of the price ratio for ITX systems.

[@kamm3021]

*Gpu side vent holes are very small* Without the provided case fans, the gpu will cook itself instantly

[@juliusmanalo9645]

Maybe fractal should hire you as their next lead engineer. You seem to know when cards will cook themselves.

[@kevinm8715]

It's a 4070 Super with 3 fans...it's not going to cook itself. But it is one of the issues that I have with so-called "sandwich layout" cases. You're forced to draw in from the sides to get reasonable cooling. I much prefer cases that are a little wider so that you can put GPUs in a typical "horizontal" layout. In those cases you can intake from the bottom and exhaust at the top, creating a nice chimney effect where the coolest air is sucked directly into the GPU cooler.

[@棕尾狐狸]

is that fan noise at the beginning of video?

[@Laggex_]

ETA Do you read your comments? I sometimes feel thats not the case

[@scroseph]

Can you please do a steam os build with this?

[@bustergundo516]

Nice

[@btkchaosreaperj.c7642]

Do a rog ally x with the Monsters Hunter Wilds beta

[@DaveAtlas]

Didn't Nvidia just recently open source their driver so now it can be done right on linux? I think that just happened like the other day... I could be imagining in though.

[@shadowhacker27]

6:10 how do you throw a laser granade (or whatever) killing officers and the NPCs 5 meters away just go walking and those 10 meters away don't even notice? In GTA 3, IV, and V you do anything related to violence and the whole block reacts.

[@TechVerified2K]

i have a 9700x + 4080 FE and 280mm AIO. Works and fits great!

[@albertomon]

that case remind me of the xbox 360

[@wastelander138]

200 bucks is a bit much for a mini case. I got my XL case for 20 bucks less than that.

[@MCToxication]

nice

[@printicewhite]

Living room setup please

[@genio8820]

If this is small my Goodisory A02 with RTX 4060lp is a mini PC box

[@heirtothethrone000]

I was thinking that too. Just because these cases take itx motherboards they are not small.

[@mk83_Daniel_Williams]

Nice case, but I don't care for the wood look. Reminds me of the 1970's
