$2000 Mini PC (4080 Super) 

You’re a superb communicator. Using your videos, I was able to successfully build a high performance gaming PC 1st try…as a 62-year-old geezer!

It's wild that half the budget of a $2000 build is the GPU nowadays

The production value on these videos is just insane.

Finally give this man the million subs. With the quality he always delivers while remaining true to the Mini ITX narrative - would be absolutely deserved!

I see Optimum upload I click, it’s that simple

Most underrated PC channel, the effort put into the editing down to the actual video topic is top tier. 2nd from LTT for me, 3rd Nexus for sure. Awesome seeing a fellow Aussie make it on RU-vid ❤️🇦🇺

I love how Opti will add a little fan spin in basically every build vid, its like a cool little easter egg/his signature

That's a beautiful and fast system anyone would love on their desk. Job well done!

I bought the case and new components... you did this to me optimum!!! Thank you for the video. I'll be using it as a reference in 20 or so days, much love!

Superb quality as usual, and get that 1 mil sub mark that you deserve a lot more than some other "bigger" channels.

personally one of the best tech and gaming youtubers, amazing video and sound quality man great job

On youtube, there are numerous ppl doing the same thing, but this man here, has been single handedly in charge of small factor pc building on youtube, for years.

Optimum drops a vid and as always a smart and tasteful build appears on screen. Damn that case is another thing of beauty. I'm looking at my MasterCooler NR1 and getting envy.

Love The Build Keep Up The Good Work

I would not be into ITX builds without your channel. Completed my first (and current) in the Meshilcious. Couldn't be happier with the outcome coming form ATX. Now I'm back for inspiration on the next build!

I love your work and you discover new things so amazingly

the main reason i like this channel isnt the great production quality or the content, but the fact that these videos arent drawn out past 10 minutes just to get double the ad revenue. which is pretty rare to see. mad respect for that.

Thank you for the first section overview of case assembly! I have a Formd T1 inbound now (through their recent change in ordering), and will be transitioning a 12400 / Gigabyte Z690I from a case disappointment (Mjolnir) hopefully fairly soon.

I just love your videos!!! Thank you for your work 😊

There's a uniqueness about these ITX builds that i love. Really has a charm to it.

Great idea to click the mouse as a sound reference while recording the fan sound - it's hard on videos to get a feel for how loud fans are. Great frame of reference, brilliant

I see Optimum upload, I click, I learn, I enjoy. perfect tech channel, been watching since 90K

Lovely build that. That case looks so damn satisfyingly to piece together! Out of my price range for just a case, but I can't hate on it, it's lovely.

Miss your mini itx videos and builds, we need more!

Next, I think lots of us, want a budget build, small like this and the other ones you make. BTW great content, i love it!

optimum it would be so cool if you were to include some b-roll of airflow visualization through the case with fog generators or smoke! just an idea :)

a beast ITX build from Optimum felt long overdue. LETS GOOO

another amazing high quality video, super informative and clear 🔥🔥

Great vid as always man!!

it's a good day when optimum uploads

love seeing some SFF PC videos. My dream case is still the Velkase Velka 3. one day

I'm trying to make the transition from a big case like Lian Li O11 to something like this one presented in your video. Optimizing space is a priority as I get older so thank you for this video. It will surely be an inspiration for my next small case build.

I feel like every video from this dude is a 10/10

I like the way the white RGB ram shines through. Very cool and subtle.

Just watched your Mute Episode 3 from 5 years ago. 717 likes. You've come a long way. Congrats! Also, you're not super pale anymore.

I like the rewind editing stiile at the beginning.Neat.

From NCASE: "Based on recent customers' feedback, the Gigabyte B760I and B650I may not operate in PCIe 4.0 mode when paired with our PCIe 4.0 Riser or other available PCIe 4.0 Risers." Any other MB recs?

Thx as always 4 the build vid Ali... 👍😎

Crazy build looks absoulutely clean

wake up, optimum posted another itx build!

I upgraded from a 12400f to a 13600k. Playing "competitive" games on 1440p made that well worth it. I personally feel that a 14400 and a 4080 Super are not a good match. Additionally, I think I'd rather be GPU bottlenecked than CPU bottlenecked.

I will probably never be able to build such setup but I love watching these videos, probably because of the production quality. There's something special about these clean looking compact build. And I love the 4080, 3080 more than the the other models, has nice ring to it. Will try to build this type of system 6yrs down the line, If the personal economy favors the purchase.

Wow what an amazing build! You're videos are always amazing what you fit into a tiny space! I've done 2 builds over the past 5 years using youre ideas that always work very well!

With each and every video, you raise the bar across the entire industry of content creators. Keep it up and let nobody hold you back, mate. It's absolutely brilliant. You're my all-time favourite channel!

All these years later and the FormD T1 is still king. Try as they might, big companies like Fractal try to copy and fall flat on their face.

Amazing video as always! Much love from the UK

Good job optimum and straight to the point. No making tea or coffee bullshit

I've built a pc with the T1 before and had awful temperatures, ended up going back to my old mid tower makes me wonder what I've done wrong.. I had less powerful components than this build..

This would be $1500 if GPUs had reasonable pricing

Id love to see one of these with no trade offs. Just the best PC you could build in the ITX case

If its Optimum, you know the vid is gonna be clean. Although would like to see an ATX build in the future❤

Why do you like small things ?

There's no Tracer in this video :(

This channel has grown so much. Gratz

This case is amazing. I have it with your build using the RTX 4080 founders edition. I love how you show the build step by step.

1 view in 12s. Bro fell off 😔

Incredibly condensed build. I love it!

The FormdT1 has truly allowed some amazing builds, ranging from absolute budget to absolute balls to the wall. Great video 👌

i love flatpack cases, they're my new favourite thing icl

Yooo new optimum video. Not as often as I’d like but I’m always here for them

It's crazy how good itx cases have gotten. I didnt want to do too much work on my build plus I wanted my 4090 to have some extra air to breathe so I followed your nr200p max build from a while back. But now we have even smaller cases like this or the terra which are even smaller and still cool the highest end components.

I had a plan to replicate your previous one (with 3D printed component), but this one is really tempting

Almost the exact build I've been planning!

I use a gaming laptop, and I've thought of going back to building PCs again. I liked my gaming laptop because it was a space saver, and now that I see that a mini gaming PC is viable, I'll definitely shoot for a build like this! I always loved that with a PC, you could always upgrade parts easily, not so much with a laptop

note: there was a drama between 2 creators of the t1 and one of them collab'ed with ncase to create the v2.5 and apparently its slighty worse than the v2.1 (OG) that is still being sold by the other guy right now

Watching this on my T1 V1.1 here. First ITX build and so happy with it

Top notch vid, ive literally been looking for a clean all black minimal gaming pc , i really want to get a pc this year , thiiis case is runner up

Going to build something similar to this, ty for the inspo 🥰😘

Wow, That case is absolutely beautiful.

Pretty much my dream pc 🤤 I think I’ll build one like this once I have enough money, thanks for the idea:)

Dude, this thing looks like my UPS for MY PC, sick build

Form is a very interesting build. Working on my third version now.

the amount to value you can get with these parts for $2000 is amazing the total for me was oney $1815 thx for the build!

dude watching your video is so relaxing

The builds are insane. I love watching all these different builds you do.

Beautiful. Even taking out the 4080 with a cheaper GPU its a super compact build. Love it ❤

I just love your content. ive been watching for a while and want to do the same stuff as you but dont have the budget.

Love the varied content, but man I really miss itx videos like this.

Dang, this is my dream PC. It's taking me forever to save up though! optimum is defo the best tech channel in Australia! I remember when APC did loads of build guides. I still pick 'em up from time to time, but the magazine became more generic after a while, and lost it's focus on PC build "Masterclasses". (my favourite bit) Similar to when Motor closed down and merged with Wheels... Still a great magazine all the same! AE is a great editor. I feel like this channel is the replacement to the old APC for me. AND it's in Australia, AND the video quality is always top-notch. I do photography and videography, and appreciate all of the work you put into these. The reason I need a new computer is actually because my potato level Surface Pro 8 (8GB RAM 11th Gen i5), simply cannot handle much more than 8 photos in Lightroom ... forget video-editing/Blender/CAD, all of which happen to be things I like to use! Storage is also an issue, lol.

Such a clean build, wish I could buy it off you!

I still have the last similar build you did and still amazing

the only youtuber i have post notifications on for ❤

This is the perfect PC build. Very nice !

This is just what I was looking for. Time to build a pc!

ok you convinced me afte watching a bunch of builds I think this is going to be my blueprint

That's a really nice build & video, I would like to suggest if you could do gaming headset reviews as I trust your reviews very much, would appreciate that

I got the MicroStrike PC on MicroPowerPC and I absolutely love it. Incredible build quality, and super powerful. Probably the best PC I've ever had.

That case is a strong contender for my next build

I realy love your Videos. They are never disappointing

nice! my last build was inspired by your NCase M1 build... this will be my next.

This video is great! I would love to build a mini pc like this one one day.

Depending on what GPUs and CPUs look like at the end of summer this year, this is pretty much exactly what I want my next build to be.

_Fan Control_ is the mutt's nuts, an absolute God-send, I've given M. Mercier $40 (running it on two machines) and I encourage others to pay what they can afford.

After watching your videos for a while now, I finally joined the SFF cult and ordered a FormD T1. I have to say I love it and don't think I will ever go back. I transferred my existing Strix 3080 and 12700k. The strix has such little clearance haha, I think it's 319mm or something like that.

Great video i like this case . It has only 2 exhaust fans which at first i thought is bad but then i realized that it means potentially less noise and all input air will be sucked in by negative pressure through that mesh anyway and you get smaller case once again ! Cool

i just love the T1. Amazing case.

every time i watch your videos it makes wanna build an itx as well

This video so clean I want to go from an NR200 to a T1 now.

The editing in these videos is next level

i love this compact build
