A perfect repurpose build walkthrough. No Streamer bloat to lengthen the time. You make me feel like doing the same thing with the old parts that I have from my old system that's still sitting in a box right now.
I know there were a lot of people in the same boat as you and ended up with a pre-built in order to get a 30 series GPU and this is a great way to re-use a majority of the parts.
Good idea for a video: downsizing with almost no new components. It's an intermediate step for people that are curious about small form factor (SFF) computers.
This is how I caught the SFF bug. Picked up a Cerberus X to move my ATX rig down to 20ish liters and just had to by an SFX PSU. This was years ago and there are other and less expensive options available today as shown here. Good stuff!
Later in the video, I briefly discuss the thermal and noise differences. However, since I don't expect people to copy this build's specs exactly, but rather to downsize from a larger ATX case with the components they already have, these details will vary. Nonetheless, I cover them briefly to give an idea of what to expect in terms of slightly increased thermals and noise levels.
Hey man, as a SFFPC enthusiast myself I just wanted to say that you've done an excellent job here. I just so happened to stumble across this video and the production quality, thoroughness and delivery were all super impressive. Keep up the great work!
@@InstantNameOfficial I think they mean it's gatekeepy in that using a *five* letter acronym where a word like "mini-PCs" or "Small PCs" could suffice creates unnecessary esotericism that can be interpreted as gate keeping. I don't know if I entirely agree in this case, but I get where he's coming from. It's certainly the case in video-games where people will create acronyms, portmanteus or abbreviations (things used to shorten dialogue) that are longer then the things they are standing in for, negating it's entire purpose and thus existing purely as a gatekeeping device.
this is a great video and something that Im definetly going to do.. and something I wish that the the NZXT Sff tower could do.. maybe with the V3 because the nxzt is bigger to my knowkledge... but if you really want to get into SFFP... optiumum tech is the King... hes production value.. the way he gets non conforming parts to fit.. or finds extremely creative ways to fit watter cooling into sub 10 L casses with 3090s and 4090s.. everything he does is fun to watch.. he even builds his own 3d printed parts to test thermals on certain cases..
I love it, as someone who went from building mid-atx builds to sff, the whole attraction to SFF was the lack of un-used space. This is exactly where my thought process was, a case that is litterally the bare bones chassis and covers to fit all the components in.
On another note: There is a lot of mods and guides available for the Meshi, which also apply to most of the Meshroom S, too, including the standoff mod (either MB or GPU), that allows for better cable management.
For anyone buying this case in the future, make sure you have a riser cable that has a 180 degree reversible connector for BOTH ends. Wish I knew that previously and it was kind of an annoyance, but it’s wtvr. Hope this helps to anyone building in the future.
In terms of "not being able to use PCIe slots": Have you tried using another riser cable? There are REALLY small ones. I bought one for my SAMA IM01 vertical mod, because the GPU was kinda blocking the lower PCIe 1x slot, rerouted the card to the lowest slot and that fixed the issue. OC, in the Meshi, you might have to become a bit creative, but if I can relocate my SFX-L PSU to the back and just use an SFX GPU, while managing to not break my fingers, you should be able to reposition a small WiFi card to a better place, too :)
I did this same thing with my kids old gigantic pc. Had to buy a sff power supply as well, but found out his 3060 ti will fit at the top horizontal location using a long pcie riser with one mm to spare. makes plugging in the display port plugs much easier.
Your videos are top of the line. I'm watching them like a hawk because I'm looking to replace my Corsair 540 builld (Nvidia 980ti, Intel 4790k). I definitely need to downsize it. Your last video on the 2000 D case with the 4080 looks like a great option. I also keep seeing stories where 4090 cards are melting. And it's really great that you do noise tests. Very few youtubers do this, and my 540 build makes a noticeable hum even at idle. I have a fanless mini pc that is nowhere near as powerful (Mele Quieter 2), but the silence is golden.
Check out optimum tech.. he is like the Godfather of SFF pcs.. he tes thermals.. sounds.. compatibility.. and he usually builds one in a new case every couple weeks for his channel.. sometimes he makes his own parts.. its just wild the video production he produces.. the 1 of a kind SFF s cases.. he teaches you that you can run a 4090 and a 13900ks in a ten litter case with a corsair min itx power supply.. this video is awesome and geared towards people who want to go smaller without the cost of doing so... Optimum tech shows you the absolute best you can do in the smallest form factor possible.I believe he is even asked to help SSF pc brands as a consultant
@@beefwantko7269 I've been watching Optimum Tech for a couple of years now. It's from his content that I found Devyn's videos because I was looking for SFF builds.
The meshlicious is definitely built better than the meshroom. Though, If I had an MATX board I would have gotten the meshroom too. The panels are a bit thicker and don't bend that easily on the meshlicious. I'm happy I got one before they ran out.
thank you for making a video thats straight to the point and in detail. hate it when people drag a video that can be a 5 mins to 30 mins and just talk nonsense. this is a great video
What a great idea, never seen a build like this in this case, I agree definitely using an itx motherboard, would love to see more temps and benchmarks in gaming!
This is phenomenal I have been watching a bunch of what you put out since I want to move into a small form factor for my "upgrade build' but this video is exactly what I need! I have the same mobo and AIO which is the main reason I didn't want to move cases and have to rebuy more parts!
it's cool case but base on this build that AIO tube routing not the best since over time the liquid inside will evaperate and with less liquid inside chance of bubble will increase and if the tubing is routed up top then the bubble will happen where the tubes are going to be at.
Meshroom S is my favorite case. I just finished building mine with a custom watercooling loop 5800X3D and RTX 3080 founders edition along with and EK pump res combo and a 280mm radiator. It still amazes me all the options and stuff you can fit in this case! 😁
This is something I’ve been thinking about as I use my PC in the living room as well and couch game with controller. Currently have my an O11D Evo rig with a ton of stuff in it, so a lot will be compromised for downsizing. Thanks for sharing!
that's really impressive managing to reduce the overall footprint without compromising too much. A few degrees and some fan noise never really bothered me. I'm really considering something like this for the future! Nice work!
I think it looks very nice. Good job. As much as I like a smaller case I like having room to work around in so I guess I'll just be sticking with my mATX cases. But I think yours looks terrific.
SSUPD knocked it out of the park with all three of their cases. I've never used a case easier to build in than my Meshlicious, even with top-end components.
welcome to the ITX squad! Ive been using an Ncase M1 and Dan Case S4 for years and take them to all kinds of LAN events, gaming with friends, and take it more places than my laptop most of the time! I love having mITX over my old full sized towers.
Would a pc in this case fit in something like a backpack? I don’t know if it’s a bad idea or not, but I want to make my pc more portable, because I learned the hard way that building a full size pc when you go between two houses a lot isn’t the best idea
This was the perfect video honestly, I've been wanting to do the same for about a year, great stuff man, its the first time I've seen an actual downsizing and not a "buy ITX"
In the same boat re old rig with 3080 and wanting to downsize the case... But man that looks intimidating for a newbie builder like me. 11 months after your video, are there any other cases this would work in that might be a little more forgiving? Maybe the Lian Li A3?
This is quite opposite to empty cube "ITX" cases that sometimes bigger than mATX ones. When building fron scratch, for ultimate desk space, NZXT H1 v2 is still better, but may not fit beefier cards.
Good idea, although I'm a little bit concerned about thermals and how all the devices are generating so much heat and are so close together... I don't think 2/3 degrees is accurate... but it also depends on what you're doing with the system... Thanks for sharing!
Nice case but no access to GPU video ports is a deal breaker. I am looking for smth to up-size from Dan A4-SFX because I want to use Vive Wireless adapter. I could plug it in one of the M.2 slots through a riser cable, but there's nowhere to put it... doesn't look like this case can be a solution
For the Wi-Fi, it's actually a m.2 form factor card on a pcie adapter with antennas. Just install in the extra m.2 slot on the MB with an external antenna. All good.
My friend wants to downsize his PC with an ATX motherboard, case, and PSU, and a 3-fan Radeon RX 5700 XT. I was looking into cheap ITX cases and motherboards that also support ATX PSUs, however, using this case and keeping the motherboard with an SFX PSU would also be an option. Although, this case alone is $150, and SFX PSUs pretty much start around $150, so it would be $300 for the upgrade which is $100 over his budget. Are there any cheaper ITX cases that also support ATX motherboards?
SF750 for a RTX 3080 and 10850K is extremely ill-advised. That power supply will guaranteed explode because SFF power supplies are just not robust enough to handle the 3080's transient loads, just hope it doesn't take any other components with it. I'm speaking from experience, you need to overspec the power supply to at last 1000W.
I dont get the point of a case that can fit an ATX motherboard by blocking the bottom slots. Sure ITX costs more, but this case also costs double a good ATX case cost, so what's point of the extra money? Save a few bucks on MATX motherboard while still spending ITX tax on case, PSU and AIO cooler?
Would I have better luck in the case with a Micro ATX board and a much smaller GPU (RX 7800 XT reference card)? I'm thinking of moving my build into a smaller case
With your AIO hoses at the top of the radiator are you having issues with noise or temperatures yet? That configuration is about the worst you can have for a radiator. Just curious how that is holding up.
I was at Costco yesterday looking at the Cyberpower prebuilts and the base model was this gigantic case that was just empty and I thought about how much more reasonable it would be to put it in a smaller case, but I noticed it had an ATX motherboard. It just seemed like such a waste.
ive got an h510 elite i upgraded to from my h510, cool looking case but i built it before i matured and started liking more minimal builds, love challenging pc builds! hopefully this will be a good option for me, thanks for the great vid bro!
For a case that is $150 the panels should not be cheap enough to bend. And before everyone hates on me I know mini towers are expensive but it doesn’t make sense if they use cheaper materials and worse construction. It costs them very little to install structural bars. They will probably eventually sell a v3 at $200 just for those bars. Also good video I’m looking for a case to downsize an old system too as a server and this other than the panels checks the boxes.
Hi! Thats awesome build! I am planning to make something like this and already got my meshroom s v2. I have question: you saying that it would be much cleaner if you put rizer UNDER the motherboard. So what stopped you?
Hey Devyn, I like the build and want to do this myself! I have a question though; what length is the Riser cable you used? Because I will also be building in it with an ATX mobo and am afraid my current riser (280mm) is not going to be long enough.
I wonder, did you flip the fans of the radiator? From Push to Pull? Because if you don't, that might explain the slightly higher temps, since you are trying to pull warm air through a 2-3mm gap behind the CPU socket and not pulling it from outside the case through the radiator.
I’m literally in this same boat myself, wanting to downsize to save some desk space, I have a Montech case that’s almost identical to the 4000D in terms of size. I’m running a more “entry level” setup with a 12600K & a 3060.
I really want a vertical tower case. But I have 4 display out (1 dp, 3 hdmi) that I need connected. That is a serious issue for a vertical tower build.
Hey Devyn. I don't know if you will see this but, I have a question. Can you use this on its side? Kind of like a Formd T1? Or is there a case that would allow ATX motherboard support while being in the sideways orientation? Thanks. Great vid btw.
SSD is a major heat distributor, just as much as gpu on avg 43-47 Celsius if you run gpu on auto settings. i knew that got pretty warm but not in the 40s and above
I want to do this to my prebuilt pc, but I don't know if I need new parts so it will fit into the case you used. I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
I just built my own case from scratch. Its much smaller but the way its laid out i have much better air flow. My cpu temps have dropped 5°c with the exact same fans, board and everything.
Ive got an absolute huge corsair case, the one that has an extra compartment just to ignore cable management, i rebuilt my partners pc into a smaller case and now my feed is filled with SFF builds and im kind of getting the itch
Interesting case and truly tempting to try, but usability/spatial efficiency seem dubious unless need to resettle an (m)ATX mobo indeed - exactly as in the pretty particular instance you are sharing!
A perfect repurpose build walkthrough. No Streamer bloat to lengthen the time. You make me feel like doing the same thing with the old parts that I have from my old system that's still sitting in a box right now.

Without temperature tests this video is crap.

That is absolutely brilliant. Super well designed case, and the parts you had in the prebuilt transitioned perfectly.

I want to do this to my prebuilt pc, but I don't know if I need new parts so it will fit into the case you used. I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
hello friend. how long is the pcie4 riser cable that you have shown on this video to install your graphics card behind the case. thanks
I wish there were more options like this one, in Europe I can barely find any seller and it is too expensive, and I can't find the V2 version...
great video. started pc journey with a prebuilt and now looking to downsize while trying to maximize component reuse. Thanks!!
Did the riser cable come with the case? I know there's a shorter one for itx boards. But I can't find much info on the longer riser cable you're using
added to my watch later for when i move back to DC, my pc is HUGE , thanks for the info!
Glad, I am not the only one with this issue... Cool video!
Did you end up switching out the riser cable? Which one did you choose if you did?
I just built my own case from scratch. Its much smaller but the way its laid out i have much better air flow.
My cpu temps have dropped 5°c with the exact same fans, board and everything.
Ive got an absolute huge corsair case, the one that has an extra compartment just to ignore cable management, i rebuilt my partners pc into a smaller case and now my feed is filled with SFF builds and im kind of getting the itch
this case is exactly what i was looking for a few months ago but had no luck so ended up modding a g3 case to fit my needs
Interesting case and truly tempting to try, but usability/spatial efficiency seem dubious unless need to resettle an (m)ATX mobo indeed - exactly as in the pretty particular instance you are sharing!
nice one but im personally a high airflow atx case kind of guy. SFF cases are so pretty to look at though.
This case seems great as someone who wants to upgrade to the new platforms but the itx motherboards are too overpriced.
Been loving your content man, keep it up!
Do you have an open M.2 slot on your mobo? Cuz the WiFi card could get put in there if you needed it.
Awesome stuff, man. Wish I saw this video before I built in my H1!
I don't see how a normal power supply won't fit. Nothing is on the mobo that would interfere unless you want of your express lanes
Bent paneks is crazy, but the case lost me at replacing the riser cable
very nice, but what are your GPU temps sitting at?
