I've been lookin at itx cases all freakin day looking for cases with sensical storage options. It's now bedtime and this finally popped on my feed. Oh lordie!! Here we go
Got the case last week - I really love it - great for the price and i fitted a 360mm AIO a ATX PSU and a large GPU (340mm 2,5 slots) along with some extra fans in the case - everything runs great and thermals are fine (but I am not a heavy gamer - use the system mainly for productivity)
Haha. Thank you. I am just a guy. Still slowly growing so I have no complaints. Just doing this for fun as well on the side, but I appreciate the support.
LOVE this case. I was looking for small, well built, and able to accommodate solid hardware and I wasn’t disappointed. As mentioned the front panel is nothing to be excited about, and I’d love to find some shorter cables to clean up the interior but it’s not bad as is. Maybe a great follow-up video, enhance the interior etc? All in all a solid recommendation.
@@poweredbychris With all the stuff going on with intel and the instability issues should i still be buying a i5-14600kf or will it not work? thx in advance
@@Lukastad. Can't really answer your question as I don't have any experience with 13/14th gen. If you prioritize gaming then get an And x3d chip. If you prioritize productivity/multitasking go Intel. If you end up going with Intel, make sure you update to lastest bios and use a retention bracket. Gl
i got one, and i built my first PC. its perfect but its just a hair bigger than what i expected. Other than that its perfect for my build Ryzen 7 7700 (stock cooler, 4 case fans right now, left side i keep open) asrock b650m rx7800xt EVGA 700GD (recommend a modular, extra cables just sit below and it may look unkept. to me it does and i plan on switching to one soon )
I used that same air cooler for my jonsbo z20 build! Its so damn good for the price AND it looks cool :D great build. I'm going to be doing another build with this case pretty soon.
Just picked one of these babies up with walnut wood $105 from Newegg be here few days so looking forward to building in it as I have been searching for two years for the ONE. I am going to go slow using my 7 P's= Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance. Update parts arriving today 9/4/2024 be built by weekend looken groovy.
Hot air naturally rises, so I agree this is a better fan arrangement. It'll encourage pulling the cooler air that may pool towards the bottom to flow up as well. It'd be very cool to use an IR camera to test out different fan arrangement honestly. Since going by the cpu temperature only obviously doesn't show you temperatures of other components on the board.
How about the CPU air cooler? Have the fans you installed been enough for your composition? I see that it is not too big compared to other compositions I have seen.
Thankyou for the video! I've been researching about this case for a while now, one question tho, do you think it will fit a 3 slot GPU + 120 mm fans on the bottom of the case?
@@falfarizihasan depends on the fan thickness, and the GPU slot on the mobo, not all are the same. If there is an issue you can use the side mounting bracket. GL
@@e79905 I don't think it would get that much of the GPU exhaust tbh since it's the hot air is mainly getting pushed out the back corner Maybe some but also getting some fresh intake as well
The only issue is the power supply for me mounting so the exhaust fan puts the warm air from the power supply back in the case seems like kind of counter productive to put back warm air from the power supply?
@@dkat1108 I get what your saying, but it doesn't seem to affect it all that much. I guess if your maximizing the space and using the highest end parts maybe but even still. I figure if you find an aftermarket front panel that allows airflow you could flip it so it's in taking in fresh air
I'm planning to build in this case soon using the Peerless Assassin 120 SE as the CPU cooler for the ryzen 5 7600, do you think 2 bottom and 1 side intake is good with 1 rear and 1 top exhaust. Should I go with less fans?
@@poweredbychris Thanks for replying so fast here's another quick (maybe stupid) question, as I'm new to this and don't want to make any mistakes. I'm probably buying the MSI b650m gaming plus wifi, which has 3 system fan connectors. I should buy 2 fan splitters and connect 4 of the fans to 2 connectors and the 5th one to its own connector, do you know if connecting 2 fans to one connector with a splitter will affect ANYTHING? I can't really use a fan hub in this case... Also, if my motherboard has 1x CPU fan and 1x PUMP fan listed, is it fine to connect each cpu fan to those connectors (air cooler) or with a splitter to just the CPU fan connector.
May not be enough room if you use a 3 slot card, can't confirm. This is a 2 slot card and can fit it on the fan shroud where there's enough surface area. If you did use a beefier card you could always remove the last fan and use the bracket.
is it possible to fit an ATX card ie wireless card on this type of build, i don't have a beefy graphics card so assuming my 3070 should be okay with enough rom to add it below it?
I have an Inwin A3 case but I’m struggling to fit a card over 340mm, this case will fit a GPU up to what length? The power supply I’m using right now is an EVGA G6 750 will that also work?
@@Rosaslav I haven't personally worked in any of the jonsbo cases though I do want to at some point, but it depends on what you value. There are several cases from jonsbo ranging in prices. I think at the 70 price range it's hard to argue against the A3 at 26 ish liters its likely smaller and has more configurability options
The A3 is perfect for me but if you care about an aesthetic build to show your friends, the cable management is non existent , requires planning and patience.
It’s 26L, close to the limit of itx matx around 20L. I have reviewed around 20L cases that barely fit a gpu 330mm like my 3090 ti evga and a (140mm) atx psu. But airflow suffered dramatically from my research. This is the best in between.
@@Benggerzen Yes. I would agree. Air flow is pretty good, and you can fit up to a 415mm GPU with an ATX PSU. That is reduced if also using a 360 aio. Then you would have to consider using a smaller psu
@@poweredbychrisThat is considerably smaller, while still supporting mATX and full-size GPUs. You for bigger cards you will probably benefit from SFX PSUs, plus shorter cables will make cable management easier

Dude I love your videos please make a budget build with this case plsssd
@@drehitwari7143 thank you. This is somewhat of a budget am5 build. I might try for a other budget build

How did you cable manage this? Im planning on getting it but im really unsure about the cable management

Agreed and thank you. You will not be disappointed with the A3.
ITX cases are cool, but this is so much easier to build, with more options for high ram pools and 4090/5090 GPUs.

@@avirtualworld4U you won't regret it. Such a good case

Wouldn't it better to inhale from back fan and exhale to to top fan?

@@veggie_cream1628 it's more than adequate for a 7500f
Is it recommended to keep CPU having fresh air to only run 1 exhaust on top or would 2 be better?

Why are the exhaust fans on the bottom?
@@Qwhx123a they are intake not exhaust.

@@poweredbychris thx for the reply double thumbs up

is it possible to fit an ATX card ie wireless card on this type of build, i don't have a beefy graphics card so assuming my 3070 should be okay with enough rom to add it below it?
@@TheBriti5hNoob you should be okay. Just to note it could be dependent on motherboard having GPU in first expansion slot vs down one.
The msi b550m pro vdh fits in this case?
@@sidneyd.2114 Yes. It fits micro and itx motherboards
I have an Inwin A3 case but I’m struggling to fit a card over 340mm, this case will fit a GPU up to what length? The power supply I’m using right now is an EVGA G6 750 will that also work?
@@Kenny_Edmonton max GPU length with your PSU mounted at the highest position is 415mm. That length is reduced if you use a 360 rad
Does this case support atx psu bro?
Yes, but SFX PSU is recommended
Weird that you got a thermal right cooler but not the retention plate.
@@kyosefgofa not as necessary for AMD processors vs Intel.
So you think it is significantly better than even Jonsbo mATX cases?
@@Rosaslav I haven't personally worked in any of the jonsbo cases though I do want to at some point, but it depends on what you value. There are several cases from jonsbo ranging in prices.

Yeah,shorter cables would help too
How about temperatures? I like that cooler for a 5600, I imagine it will be enough.
@@abel6575 yes it's enough for that cpu
Best case would be the jonsbo z20

too bad the case is so long
First
It's not bad but kinda a worse version of the AP201
@@Ecoxiss haven't worked in the ap201, but the a3 is 7 liters smaller which I prefer
@@poweredbychrisThat is considerably smaller, while still supporting mATX and full-size GPUs. You for bigger cards you will probably benefit from SFX PSUs, plus shorter cables will make cable management easier
Was looking at the AP201 as well. But, I like this better because of the flexibility of things like PSU placement.
