I have an MSi Trident 3 because I liked how portable it was, but ended up liking this build and managed to find most of the parts at great prices that I've now set myself on this build! The difference I've done is gone for 32GB of RAM and 1TB M.2 because I found them for only £5-10 more so felt right to do so! I low how well you went through your build too. Some can skip small details there and then, but you did great to the point of where I can use this as a guide for when I attempt mine!
@@cartierr7485 I don't see why it would? It's a squeeze, but you could install two fans at the bottom of the case just to improve airflow. I've personally gone for a 5600g because performance is extremely similar or slightlyless than what I have now and got it for really cheap. Thankfully there's been insane price drops on GPU's so I got an RTX 3070 for 300 aswell.
Love this build actually, portability is great, performance is overkill as I like, beatiful one. Already have a beast machine, but this one... won't let me go. Excellent build and video!
went all in on this build. I really like the small form factor at about the size of a gaming console. PLUS it gives you a lot of leg room in your desk setup
The cheaper motherboard + high quality PSU combo is fantastic for someone on a budget. More expensive motherboards achieve stability through power filtering and management, i.e. they have a lot of components to help deal with bad power input, and/or strange power requirements. if your CPU is running stock in a thermally constrained system, and you live in area/building with good source power, a good PSU will give you the same benefits, and it can also out-live your CPU/Mobo/RAM.
I would probably opt for the 5600 non-X to stay in budget but be able to upgrade to the 6700 non-XT as suggested in the video. Hopefully the included wraith cooler can fit in the case as well so you can save 20 more dollars to afford an upgrade to 32GB VRAM as well and for under 1k you have an excellent 1080p/1440p LAN device.
What's the 32G for? I have 16G, and I'm pretty sure I haven't ever seen it filled, and I can have 2 browsers open with a game. Same for work: 2 (3, if you consider VS code) browsers with a bunch of tabs + a docker-compose build, still no issues.
Just came across your channel - I’ve recently been deluging myself in PC build and other related content and your excellent work stands WAY above nearly everything else out there in this crowded space, including the Paul, Linus and Jay fixtures - and not to take anything away from those guys, they do great work too. I just think the way you format your content, with beautiful camera work and your super concise and informative descriptions of your builds, telling us everything we wanna know and nothing we don’t and that’s damn rare on any enthusiast subject. Very well done Devyn, please keep doing more! Liked and Subscribed, definitely a no-brainer!
I came across this case myself a while ago. It is a great sandwich case. I built the following in it: Asrock B550m-itx ac mobo Amd ryzen5 5600 cpu 2 X 8GB Klevv DDR4 3600mhz Ram Integral m3 series plus gen 4x4 m.2 nvme ssd Sapphire Nitro+ rx 6600xt GPU Thermalright axp-90-53 black cooler Bequiet series 3 sfx non modular 450w psu 1 x id cooling 12015 case fan ARGB. Shopping in new and used market did this for £590 ($675). Can game at 1440p no problem.
Dude these videos are so good im glad i found you. You ha e the asthetic of optimum tech, but i love how you explain and show every step youre following. I havent built a pc yet and this content is motivating and makes me feel confident i can do it too. Subbed!!
Excellent build; also very good video editing and breakdown of the process- subscribed! I do think it's worth noting that DLSS 3 would also work well at 1440p for single player games like Cyberpunk 2077 if the budget were closer to $1k USD, but honestly I can't complain about your choices within $900. That leaves extra room for dedicated peripherals.
I tried DLSS3 on the 4060, and it is a no go. You need 1080p resolution to have close to 60 fps, and if you don't and do 1440p, driving the car feels wobbly like driving a boat if you have 30 fps base and shooting is innacurate. Maybe it is fine for those playing consoles, but I cannot stand the latency of 30 fps. The alternative is to drop quality but in that case it isnt' useful.
Just finished a similar build weeks ago. 5600x+b550+sf600+3060ti. It is a fine itx case as its price and everything works just fine. I feel 5600x is the best CPU for this case, considering the thermals. 7000 series ryzen is still too costly and intel CPU are too hot for this.
Great build, I coppied your build (7800X3d + 4080) from a former video but swapped the mb (using a Asus X670E-I board) and also used a MSI 4080, tnx for the vid and keep up the good work 🙂
thank you for this, I'm still researching something portable. I might change a couple of things in this build but thank you so much for a reference and some good knowledge on small builds in general :)
I'm building a similar PC and something important to have in mind is chosing a under b550 chipset motherboard is going to affect the performance, if you have a pcie 4.0 GPU. before buying the mobo u can check the price difference, probably is not a lot (depending on the model) and for the performance it might worth. Btw, great video and excellent pc for the budget. :)
I have a similar pc case like this. Different brand. I really like this, it fit on my backpack. It’s very portable. But It’s a toaster oven. The holes aren’t big enough for the hot air to exhaust. I used a thumb screw. Basically, I just unscrew both side panels and it solves my problem.
I built almost the exact same build before this video showed up in my feed. I have the S300 case in black with the gigabyte A520I AC mother board. AMD Ryzen 5 4500 CPU, MSI Radeon RX 6650XT, and a Crucial 1TB NVME hard drive. I settled for a 550w power supply though. Great minds think alike! 😁
Your videos are real nice dude. Top camerawork, satisfying to watch, and you seem to review a bit of everything on the way! Helpful & informative. Keep going
I just updated an old build of mine with this case and the cooling ability is ridiculous. For the first few days I didn't have case fans and was a bit worried that I would have overheating issues but I was playing games all day. With case fans now I have zero concerns with cooling which is awesome. For anyone wondering I'm running an MSI 3080 OC 12GB with a Ryzen 1700 (Very odd pairing, I know, but I'm visiting home and just brought my 3080 with me. 1700 is a beast!)
@@JAE-yq3bz Yep, I didn't catch that the case in the video is an s300 and not 400 like what I have. Although the only difference is the height of the case. I would still be able to fit my card in the s300 i just wouldn't have space for case fans.
Man, this is a nicely done video with a nice build! 👌 I would totally build (new) on AM4. It seems, the Fans mostly get air from the outside. But I feel still a bit concerned about the "free" airflow. Kind regards, Thorsten (Germany)
The PSU you recommended was just what I was looking for! I might do an AM5 build in this and use it as a dedicated streaming/editing PC. Thanks so much!
I built many PCs in my lifetime.. have made it a mission to build the smallest one possible. One thing we all learned, things get expensive when going small. And in fact he could have gone with a smaller power supply.
Excellent pc build idea, just the thing i am looking for as i have to shift places very often, its important now that i shrink my pc to a portable size.
I like how you kept it under $1k. You are realistic and you don't seem like a show off or know it all. Very nice video, straight to the point. I don't mind seeing a youtuber on screen but it should be only for a short moment. Too many youtubers are conceded and self absorbed but not you, nice job.
I just got that case in black. I used the Asrock B550M-ITX/ac with a Ryzen 7 5700G with stock cooler, a 500gb Kingston SA2000 nvme and 64gb of corsair DDR4 Ram. The Power Supply is a Be Quiet SFX Power 3 450W. I'm still waiting for an adapter to connect the USB C to the USB 2 header on the mainboard. Not the best option but at least it will work that way. And a Intel Arc 750 is also on the way.
OMG i research the component like this and i worried about the cpu cooler will be issue, then this video show what all i need. Cpu temperature so good for mini itx build. Thank you
Honestly, as much as I love the portability of this machine, there is very little usage for it. Most PCs stay in one place and are rarely moved. I would say that it is great if you are needing to create more space on your desk.
Your videos are great. I will build this one for myself. My wife wouldn't like a over the top RGB gaming PC in our living room that costs a ton of money. So it have to look sophisticated enough and shouldn't cost a kidney. :-D
I'm building almost this exact same PC. There's room to save a bit more money here, without sacrificing performance. 1. I'm using the SF 450 instead of the SF 750 because the former is overkill. You won't even be drawing 350w with this build. 2. I'm using the wraith stealth cooler that comes with the cpu, because it's small enough to work. I used the extra money to upgrade to a 990 Pro SSD and 3600 mhz RAM instead of 3200. I'm also buying a PCIE 4.0 riser cable so I don't bottleneck my GPU.
AM4 will be around for very long time, I don't see people switching to Am5 unless we get on board Ai cores that allow fully offline AI assistants. I don't see a reason to recommend people AM5 unless they want the latest and greatest when they do a biuld.
I'm a photographer/videomaker. I wonder if this system can do 4K60p video editing. You've got a fantastic channel by the way. I'm learning a lot in here.
(EDIT: I keep getting replies to this comment so I am adding this, I built the exact same PC except for one thing, I used the XFX Speedster SWFT309 Radeon RX 6700. End EDIT) I watched the video and built this mainly after seeing that cool case. I put the RX 6700 in. That was tight but took off the side screws to get the card inside the case. And the CPU is fast like an M1 chip. Only watched the video. barely looked at a manual with such a great video as a guide. Thanks
@@anonimoelhack5330 I have the S300 case, IE same one in the video. Didnt even know there was an S400. But like I mentioned, I had to take the side screws off to open up the back side to get the card in. If not I couldn't get it in there.
@@markiie12 IS-55. Same as the video. I only changed the video car per his "only thing Id change" type recommendation. No issues with the heat. By the way anybody looking to do this as a main gaming PC, its pretty cool you can pick it up and take it to other rooms in the house or even take it on a trip in car. Its got good specs. But I mainly built it for fun.
I feel like putting in a rtx 4060 low profile and undervolting it while keeping the same clock speed in that case and undervolting the ryzen 5 5600x but keep the same boost clocks to get lower temps and capping the fps in rivia statistic tuner to get even more consistent fps while using even less power.I could get the rtx 4060 low profile to 30-70w of power with the fps cap and undervolt and the ryzen 5 5600x to 40-45w while both components wont even barely exceed 50 degrees on 100% load.
Great video I'm building this pc this week for fun, just upgraded a few things on it like the gpu and storage. It'll be great as a portable and backup for my overkill space heater of a pc that weighs like a fridge.
Hi, just wondering what RAM you use with the same cooler (ID Cooling IS-55?) Planning to use Corsair Vengenace LPX RAM, but I don't know if it's too tall for the CPU cooler or not. Thanks!
that is a tight build. AMD rocks. Gigabyte didnt stand behind their cracking Nvidia 40 series cards and with even the iPhone 15 being USB-c you should have that front port enabled. Bad MB choice.
Watch out about the 3rd generation riser cable, for newer gpu's only the 4th gen riser cables will get a post. Got this from experience with pretty close the same build.
Wow. Never thought I'd copy a build from RU-vid. I mostly play Apex Legends and i saw that things exceeding 120fps and it can travel with me. I'll buy it of you're selling. Let me know!
Estou montando meu Pc gamer exatamente com essa case, com um Rayzen 7 5700x, 32gb de memorias ram e uma RTX 4060 colorfull 8gb, acredito que vai ser uma boa máquina...🇧🇷
Bro if you havnt cheaped out on the mobo ^^ just plug in an usb-c monitor tadaaaa :) great build! Will definitely build this too in a lil bit modified version! th for your effort!
anyone with a 6600 class card if you want more frames in cyberpunk just turn ssr to high. almost no visual difference but more frames. everything else cranked.
Great build! Keep up the content, editing was clean and the camerawork is nice. You could absolutely find some mega deals used, im actively making a similar build with a 6700xt that I was able to grab for just about 300 after tax.
