The Smallest Ryzen 9700X SFF Mini ITX Gaming PC You Can Build Right Now!

Just curious. You mention about the wattage being lower than expected. Were you able to increase the wattage on the board and did you see an appreciable improvement in performance?

please stop using frame gen to make your videos look better, its so inaccurate

I wanna do a build like this but with a 4090.

For some reason I just don’t trust the mounting solution for the PSU in this style of case. It isn’t held in by screws, just plastic tabs held under tension.

How about the noise level from the 1U power supply and the AXP120-X67 cooler when the system is full loaded?

The goat

Someone on reddit mentioned this exact PSU blew his PC in the summer time when his room got really hot. Sweet build, I love the size of Flex/HDPlex power units but PSU is just more reliable.

The 4060 is an awful GPU, but it's legit awesome for this case.

I really wish they could make a 4070S variant in this size, even at reduced power usage.

As always a great liitle build!

I hope to see this review done again once the new AGESA Patch A comes out that bumps the TDP from 65w to 105w. To see how much the performance changed.

running 9700x with 7600mt/s memory :D:D:D

psu not available in the uk...

Linux vs Windows 11 on this machine, please.

Good build but realistically few people are gonna use a system this small for any serious productivity given how limited the storage options and cooling capacity are. For gaming with a 4060, the 9700X is no faster than a $130 Ryzen 7500F so that's what I would go for to save $230.

If you actually want to use it for productivity, a 16-core would completely overwhelm the cooler unless power limited to 100W at which point it'd only be slightly faster than a 12-core with the same power limit. So the absolute highest that makes sense with one of these would be a power-limited 7900(X) given it's much faster than the 9700X at the same price.

Also, could you please stop testing with Ultra settings and Frame Gen on as your default? Ultra settings are mostly a waste of time, especially on midrange hardware, as the difference in visual fidelity vs High is barely noticeable while the performance hit is usually pretty substantial. Frame Gen should only be used if you have a high enough native framerate that helps mitigate the input lag penalty vs real frames, so the absolute lowest native framerate it should be used for is 60 FPS and not 40-45 FPS.

This would be perfectly with ChimeraOS on a living room, we're closer each day of self build modular gaming consoles.

Running the RAM at 7200 MT/s. Lol! That's slower than 6000.

price? because none of your links seems to ever work

1440p on 4060 😶

👍

The A07 Mini ITX case is much smaller than 4.3 liters, with a standard dual GPU slot and the same 1U PSU slot, but it requires a riser, which this one has free PCIe 3.0.

I dont get it, I have 7500f and the same cooler, the temps even with the lid off are around 80 in cyberpunk. Here in tests you have 66…

Wonder how this compares to the Ryzen 4070

I order a Mini ITX board at amazon, new. I got a used one with no I/O plate. No antena no nonthing. I send it back to amazon. got a refund. Amazon sold it as new. when it was used. and maybe bad.

But I still want to make a small PC like this one day.

How is the noise?

I want to see a comolete build video of this pc so that i can see in "ikea style" how to build it and wich cable goes where. Also, can it run bazzite?

O M G it there just downloading it Build your own Steam Machine !!!

Thanks for the useless benchmarks using frame gen so we don’t know what performance the system actually gets 💯

I dispise LGA... AMD needs to go back to PGA socket.

can 7800x3d and 7900 gre will fit to this case?

thats so cool im calling first dibs on this haha thats such a amazing little pc i want to make one! im just wondering but how much does this build cost $ start to finish?

This is a bad case...so many better alternatives that a cheaper.

How much does it cost?

Bro, you lost some weight? Those hands look a little smaller

What was the over all cost

Would fit way better in the fractal ridge case. Can have a real gpu and look much nicer.

When will there be a low profile 4070 or other comparable amd card

These are the mini pc's i love to see!

this is one great recommendation of power mini PC build. im writing down the part/component list.

Isn't 500W grossly unnecessary? I don't think this whole system used over 300W at any point?

This case with a minisforum BD790i build and a different GPU, anything better? 4060Ti? But less than $ 500?

9700X? No.

Would this be overkill for a Bazzite build? Or would you all recommend sticking to Windows 11?

what's the keyboard you use in your thumbnail?

Awesome video can you do a wukong video once it comes out on 4090 and on your steam deck?

This is not cheap haha.

it can run 7600mhz xmp rams well, impressive

xmp is basically ram one click oc, its being oc'd by the manufacturer so you just need to enable in bios

Please review the Ncase M2, getting lot of hype nowadays as it is very flexible.

Set Curve Optimiser to -20 all core, PBO power to Motherboard and set max thermal to 75C and you will have nice boost in performance with this CPU and it wont go over 75C, pretty much the same for the 7600X/7700X/9600X as well.

That RAM seems to be wasted on AM5 builds. You shouldn't be running anything higher than 6400mts, otherwise wont be able to set the RAM at a 1:1 ratio.
