$1500 MAX Performance Micro Gaming PC (Step-by-Step) 

There’s a half inch gap between the front panel and the PSU fan, which is giving it enough air in this orientation. However, it would be optimal to flip the PSU. My mistake there. First time building in this case and had it in my head that the front was ventilated for some reason.

This is the best size case , been waiting for this for a year..thanks for the video

260$ for A-series motherboard is WILD

Cool, this case with an air cooler. Thank you. Most videos I've seen use liquid coolers.

I am appreciate the new step by step videos. Keep them going!

I still don't understand why people don't use ITX and Micro ATX cases, pure gold.

The case looks very nice and is quite a nice addition to the mAtx lineup of cases. I'm still holding out to upgrade from my nr200p.

That CPU cooler looks stunning 😍 wow, the entire build is beautiful but I'd say a 7700/x would've been a better fit for that gpu.

What software you use for displaying fps counter?

As a couple of folks inquired, I as well would like to know what software overlay is being used to monitor system stats. It looks much nicer than MSI Afterburner with Riva

This looks so great and clean, What did you use to measure the temps on screen? it looks way different than MSI afterburner with the rounded corners?

so beautiful. i would love to see an aircooled 4080 super 7800x3d build in this. i'm actually considering "using" this build but with a 7800x3d and the zotac trinity 4080 super (which is of 306mm length i suppose it would fit), Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 Evo CPU Cooler and the GIGABYTE B650M AORUS Elite AX (Rev. 1.0) mobo, Corsair RM850e 850W PSU. PCpartpicker says s'all good but as i have to get the parts of 5 different vendors, im still hesitant wondering if there would be no issues with the fit

Nice build video. I was hoping you would also show how easy it is to turn on EXPO in the bios. Otherwise they aren't getting the benefit of that fast ram kit.

8:11 Well all the lian li case come with it like that.

Whats that fps display, its super clean.

7:50 hope Lian Li fix that issue, back fan case was important

New to your channel. Glad that there is more like Optimum tech with good videos on SFF and ITX builds. Just to ask also, what application is that widget that has you temperature and fps? thank you!

I really like this build, it's something I would consider for myself. But I'm skeptical of the upgradability of that A620 motherboard given it's designed for 65W CPUs and has no PCI Express 5.0 lanes.

I plan on downsizing my current atx build into this case, with water-cooling and everything, because i also need to fit 2 additional pcie cards - anything more than 2 slot GPUs ain't gonna fit. Let's see how it works out 😈

one thing to note about the motherboard, a good vrm with good cooling is also something to look out for on a motherboard, especially if u want to put in a powerful cpu in the future

So, i'm planing a new build and considering this case since its clean and allow alot of options. However i want to aircool this project, and really want to fit a BeQuiet Dark Rock 5 PRO. The limit for aircoolers in this case supposedly is 165mm in height above motherboard. The Dark Rock 5 PRO is 168mm in height. The cooler you installed is about 159mm in height. Sometimes there is some wiggle room in these measurements event tho the spec says 165mm, sometimes 167-168mm etc will still work. (TIGHT) but managable. After watching your video i want to believe there is like 9mm to go when checking your Freezer 36, what say you?

in my country this only gpu cost will be above 1600 plus

What about using the 7600X?

suggestion, can you do a build using the a3 with cpu aio on top and gpu aio on the side?

Great video. Question, Do you think the Tuf 4090 would fit in this case?

Hi Devin, i just wanted to say that youve done way less editing on this video as compared to the older ones. There's almost no background music or any b roll or a roll shots that ive noticed(i might be wrong), if you like to make videos like this, go for it. I like it too. But im really concerned what most people would think about this new style and format of the videos.

I noticed you didn't install any other fans?? And still got good temps?

I still don't understand why almost all new micro cases now comes with completely closed side (glass) and front panel.... seems like lack of ventilation is a new feature....

Nice build I would not by Asus motherboard. Had issues in the past with warranty.

What case is this? The Amazon link you placed in the video description leads to a page with several cases, and none of them seem to be the ones in the video.

Question, why didn't you placed your PSU beside your mobo so it can get cooler air?

Wouldn't you want to use the 7500F, if you are going for raw performance and less features?

You could of added a fan for better temps.

Really loving the build, for my own personal build im looking for a case that almost has the vertical equal to the dan A3's HORIZONTAL length, and width equal to the VERTICAL height of the dan A3 in the video so it would be like the dan A3 sitting upright on its front if you know any cases like these, let me know. I would really appreciate it

where can i get the glass side panel?

does it have room for an extra 3.5 inch hard drive

wish you could build this with a 7900 xtx nitro+ if its possible :D

Finally new video 😁😁😋😋

Nice Video, i would Like if there was a cheap lga 1700 itx Mainboard

Are you using a custom length cable?

whats your monitoring software??

Hey man, thanks for this awesome guide! I just wanted to ask, how did you create your FPS overlay counter? It looks amazing.

Wouldnt an AMD card make more sense? Like a 7900GRE

Whats the monitor used on this video

build a pc from a Jonsbo z20 black case

why i cant find this case in amazon what so special about this this is silly

Whats the monitor in the vid, looks clean.

nice!

no 280 aio up top support = fail

Is this considered SFF PC? Seems larger than expected, curious.

Wow no extra fans whatsoever

In my opinion the case is way too big

Please start benchmarking cs2 and valorant. All these other benchmarks are meaningless to someone like me :(

This or the ap201?

So a £1500 build with no fans …. Surely you would want 6 fans in this build ?

imagine saying 16gig is not enough for multi tasking,

No fans???

no case fans?

So, I think you made a mistake with the part choice. As you demonstrated gaming performance, the 4070ti super was held back by 7600 in all scenarios. You can't use ray tracing with 7600. It's too hard on the CPU as much as the GPU. A 4070 super with 7800x3d and a decent motherboard would have been a better option.

No case fans?

I checked out the price of that keyboard.. nope!

sry but u cant say that 'u better do AM5 build for the upgradability,' and then putting this shitty mobo that will block u any upgrade for a top-mid range tier CPU. this mobo have shitty VRMs! hell, if u get even 7600x u cannot fully utilize that on that mobo!

My 4090 did cost more. :/

7500F better

No, shipping damage is not a widespread issue.

What's the stats overlay at 11:20?

which app do you use for fps monitoring?

I’d include at least an exhaust fan tbh, would help the cpu temps a lot.

What software do you use for in game monitoring?

the front panel is solid, how can the psu intake air when you installed them like that?

I would recommend not doing the 4070 ti super and dropping it to a 4070 super and upgrade cpu to 7800x3d

What app are you using for the cpu and GPU info?

Want 4k $1500 pc? Too bad if you said “no” B650 msi mag mobo $139.99, r5 7600x $197.80, asrock rx 7900xt $689,.99, 32gb ram $107.99/$97.99, teamgroup 1tb superb nvme $61.99, thermalright aqua elite v3 $53.90, any 750w 80+ gold power supply $79.99, and antec c5 case. Now your beautiful 4k beast is made Edit: price for all is around $1,475 Edit 2: it also has amazing aesthetics with the everywhere

Absolutely fantastic build!

$1500 budget with a 4070ti super???????

would you get better performance with a 4080?

Why are you running an ASUS with all of the issues and scams they have pulled?

Do riser cable build prevent all GPU sag?

Was lamborghini x LianLi his first collab or am I tripping?

I gotta say, you've been a bit more loose compared to your other videos. Not to say that your past videos were not as good but this video in particular makes me think that you got more confident, which I 100% like. Looking forward to your future builds!

Why don't you need any intake or exhaust fans?

That solid front pannel is a deal breaker. I will wait for ver 2 when they fix it.

Incredible build.. Clean, spacious and silent. All the need served.

hope we see more case options at 26L or less that has support for a 165mm air cooler, full size atx psu and micro atx mobo. And more importantly MESH MESH MESH MESH for airflow

With the GPU pulling in ambient air from the bottom and no dedicated exhaust fans, meaning no fans mounted to the case itself, that would make this a positive pressure build, yes? And does it even matter with a build as open and uncluttered, as well as with so much porosity in (most) of the case panels?

1500 in the us but 1700 in the uk bc fuck us i guess, i wish my first pc would be a matx but theres no case like that under £100 that i can find

Why would you put the intake of PSU facing the top panel with little to no ventilation? :/

Would be nice to see a comparison in size with the meshroom d or the Corsair 200

Which FPS counter do you guys use? Looks good

WTF where are the fans?

The undivided box of bagged screws is a Lian Li thing. I took the time to sort the screws before building my O11d Mini and it was worth it- they include a lot of extras and so that box has stuck around and seen a fair bit of use since too.

Why don't I see many reviews of the Jonsbo/Jonpro Z20? I'm looking to build my first PC and want a small budget case that can handle a RX 6800 (340mm) Is there something wrong with it?

Without a single case fan, this build is just waiting to overheat. I just built with this case and you can put two or three fans in the top, two fans in the bottom, two or three fans on the left side, and a 120 exhaust fan in the back.

I do glad to here from all the sources that Corsair is reliable brand. Hopefully we can see some mini ATX from Corsair in nearest time.

Here is a question? Why buy a motherboard with 4 RAM slots when you only intend to use 2?

Damn want such build! Your channel is the besttttt

Stop using ASUS

Nice build, like the IO on the case, glad Dancase finally understood that using a 2 port header and only giving us 1 port just sucks. It's a dumb trend. I do worry about temps, I think this case would be pretty hot. Why not front intake? It's molded plastic, just mold some holes. It's not even a machining issue! Aside from that, the part I'd personally change is to go with an ASROCK Steel Series motherboard. A bit higher spec, could even get a B series with OC options for the same price. ASUS has shafted me recently on 2 motherboards and a PSU, so I avoid them like the plague now. Got my uncle on a laptop. Warranty only covers the computer. Not the display... It's a LAPTOP. the display is part of the computer! Looks really clean though, and I get thinking the front is vented. Those vertical lines are like the molded on exhaust ports on some of those "gaming laptops" at WalMart!
