slick looking case! for me, the real trick with the cables is getting PSU's with sleeved cables. they're so much more flexible. to eat up cable length I create "S" shapes so that I can take as much or as little cable as needed while trying to reach pins and ports. with the AIO tubes, I usually twist the radiator (or pump) so that when installed, the tubes make a sort of cork screw shape, this allows the tubes to coil as you button everything up. it also forces the tubes one direction or another depending on your configuration, helpful for keeping tubes from pushing and putting too much pressure on the RAM sticks. ...and that concludes Jared's tech tips, goodnight everyone! lol

Thank you for this build log video :) Some hints: - You can remove the bottom plate for much easier cable rounting on SFX-L - Route the 24pin over the bottom - Better use a AIO where the tubes comes out of the side not the top - Route the AIO tubes visualized in the manual
@@NoGoodNoob No, that's the waterblock that came with the EK-Quantum Power Kit, an all AMD watercooling thing they sent to reviewers last year (and you can buy for 900 USD!).

I know this is a long shot but I’ve got the same mb. I can’t build anymore until I remove the 2 brackets for the cooler however one of the screws is completely stuck. Using the right tool the other 3 came off no problem however the last screw will not budge. Any tips?
I always recommend tuning your GPU and CPU voltages/clock speed. I have a mild OC on my 3090FE with a decent undervolt, and I have a -30 offset on my Ryzen 9 5900x which results in a sustained higher clockspeed, though this isn't OC'd. Doing SFF is always a bit more of a challenge, but it's well worth it if you like having desk space.
Any guide to undervolt Ampere? I am interested to push higher clocks with lower voltage. I am watercooling a 3090 STRIX OC with EKWB's Quantum Vector blocks, also the active backplate version. Temps are insanely low, but I want to push more performance cause it runs into the 480W power wall.
PCIE 3.0 riser cable can be switched later for PCIE 4.0 version ? It is just difference in cables, case dimensions are the same for both X3 and X4 version ?
Glad to see you can kind of YOLO it while building in this case. Which means with some research and some custom cables you can make a pretty clean rig.
Thank you buddy, love your content and wanted to support the channel. Just picked up an Ensemble M desk mat. You helped me build my computer back in 2018. Keep going strong!
Doesn't that Fractal AIO have standard fittings? I suppose you could have changed the hoses out to something more manageable, but I suppose that also introduces other issues. Nice little build still!
Well maybe at some point we could see an MATX with all the power delivery onboard as that would remove the power-supply size from the equation as their would be one Or at the very least onboard 12v to everything else with a gumbrick 12v only PSU
on the matter of psu, I have a 3950x, and am getting the same card you used in this system. I have a RM750x (2018) Corsair. Should I get a 850w, or a 1000w?
I'm pushing a full loop with dual 240mm rads in an ncase M1. Someone mentioned component selection, that's Key to a clean, well fit SFF where there can be MM of clearance between equipment. Planning and research in advance is also important.
@Bitwit there is a hard setting on the Celicus coolers if you accidentally turned the cap on the pump, you switched it to quiet mode, which even with my brothers 2700x allows temps to get up to 75C
Dude...I reminded to the beginning of this video about 4 times trying to hear the component specs! Only to find that you sprinkled it through out the build 😌
SFF and "painful assembly process" goes hand in hand. After I put together my last rig in a FormDT1, I've decided that there is such a thing as "too small" and my next rig is probably gonna be in a NR200 or a Meshlicious case instead.
SFF doesn't have to be painful to build in, as long as you've got the right bits. I've got a Meshlicious (with 280mm EK AIO, 5800X, RTX 3070, SF750) and it was a very easy build process, far easier than this new Dan Case especially. For its size I think the Meshlicious is incredibly easy to build in, and still probably the easiest in the SFF class. I did employ the popular standoff mod (much like what Bitwit did in this vid, I used 2 x 20mm brass standoffs to raise the PCIE riser bracket for clearance for all my cabling through the middle of the case) which greatly improved my cable mgmt and getting a super clean end result. Highly recommended!
Feels like they are moving closer to a slightly smaller NR200. I'm glad that I waited as I have a 3900x and wanted to go AIR in the NR200P, but may go with this instead as I have the same AIO already in an H200 case.
4:08 I disagree, it is much bigger. If it's just going to be sitting on your desk, then the difference is not significant. But if you're going to be carrying it places (which the original A4-SFX was designed for), then it will make a big difference. You can't fit this new case in a backpack easily, it's much bulkier. The steel makes it heavier too. At this new size, there are better options imo. The NCase M1 being one, I'm glad I got mine before it got discontinued.
Both my Formd T1 and my Ncase M1 fit into around the same backpacks, and it's due to the length more than anything. The difference between the original dan case and the c4 lengthwise is only 1mm. OG dan case is 326 and the h20 is 327. The Ncase is actually larger than the h20. Ncase is 338mm x 160.6mm x 255.5mm 12,7 L and the H20 is 244 x 140 x 326mm, 11,1L.
Both cases are very efficient in what they can fit. Some people like the term performance/litre as a metric. And both cases would be pretty high up there.
He took an Nvidia sponsor probably, hence why competitors Such as Radeon weren’t mentioned and in this case blurred as part of an agreement for the sponsor. Only RTX products are shown too… seems fishy to me.
@@Jraz1011 Nope that is wrong, because the card shown in the video is the special waterblock that was sendt to content creators, but only the standard air cooler would show up as sawstikas while spinning at a certain refresh rate.
I’m not sure either, maybe Nvidia sponsored the video in some way, hence the lack of mention for AMD or Radeon through the video. I could be wrong though.
Either because Nvidia sponsored the video, or the GPU is the new 6950XT and Kyle got a sample early? Probably not though. Something’s up for damn sure.
With modular power supplies, for ITX builds I normally connect the cable first then plug it into the PSU after managing the cable… but that might just be me.
To be fair, a better-planned component selection would have made this a super clean build.

I mean you can still use a newer gpu with a gen 3 riser cable, you just need to set the pci port to gen 3 in the bios.
With modular power supplies, for ITX builds I normally connect the cable first then plug it into the PSU after managing the cable… but that might just be me.
Once you lay the PSU, there is no space for you to maneuver to access the connectors, even less so if the power cables are thick.
I do the same thing. It's easier to plug all the power cables into the motherboards before attaching it to the psu.
why was the radeon logo on the GPU blurred?
Nvidia sponsored him, thats why.
I think the price sounds a lot better. You can get an NR200p for $100-$120 so I see the cost difference for this as paying for it to be smaller.
What's with the blurring of the EK water block?
It’s because it says Radeon, the video is likely Nvidia sponsored, which explains the completely lack of Radeon or AMD throughout.
