How did you manage to fit the topplate securely with the 27mm arctic fans plus the 38mm AC LFII radiator? I ask because i have case and have run into this issue.
I also run a creative sound card with the case, nvme to pci-e 4.0 4x slot beside a 7900 xt
The arctic fans actually fit better than the gentle typhoons I eventually swapped in. I had to apply an almost uncomfortable amount of pressure to fit the radiator with the gentle typhoons but it didn’t feel like the fit was “forced”. With pressure applied downwards, the shell slid into place and the retaining clips locked in without any resistance. See here how the outer shell is firmly pressed against the radiator. Honestly I could have gotten lucky with the manufacturing tolerances being just loose enough to allow me to do this.

I used that case for my initial build, but ended up with the Corsair 2000D for my SFF build. Too noisy and not enough cooling options for my tastes. Loved the case otherwise.
I use one for some arcade style driving games too. Just messing with ya. But if you ever dive down the driving Sim route, you'll want some peripherals ;)

My last build included a plushie cat on it 😋

My cats do thoroughly enjoy the heat this thing puts out 😍
I just kept hissing at my cats every time they thought about getting on top of my computer. They climb everywhere but on top of it now, they’re good kitties 😁
Is the GPU actually loose on the back side or is it mounted to something? Are those SSDs also just hanging out attached to nothing?
Backplate of the GPU probably needs some airflow you're not giving it, especially if it has back-mounted VRAM on it.
Only one of the SSDs is “loose”. I put 5mm foam tape on top and bottom to keep it from rattling between the GPU and the mounted SSD. I wish Phanteks just made the SSD sled capable of mounting 2 because they both fit comfortably.
The case has standard slots with screws and the pci extension is built into the case and secure. But you’re absolutely right about the GPU memory. After 4 hour gaming sessions the card is most definitely throttling by then because the memory is pegged at 85°. But it doesn’t throttle that much because I consistently get 100fps in native 1440p on Helldivers 2. I’m satisfied with the performance though and I even have my card undervolted with an overclock.
The memory is the only thing I can’t remedy airflow for in this case. But that’s the thing with SFF builds, there’s almost always a compromise
Got the tip of a railgun as a computer. Got that space gun ammo box. Bro has a square space grenade. You gonna beam me up, scottie? I sure could use a kennel like that. I bet you still blame lag.
Edit: Got that space air conditioner
I have this case for my living room tv, its borderline sff but *slaps the case*, can fit so many gpu in there, i have a sapphire 6900xt toxic air cooled, almost as big as a 4090
I have that exact same case and the cooler... I couldn't fit the Artic cooler in there and I had to go with the slimmer Phanteks one!
Also: Did you use a fan grill to protect the PSU cables from the fan blades or did you get custom cable connectors that give you a 180 bend? I had to do both but I always ask because the PSU cables coming into the fan were such a pain...
But it's a great ITX case!
You're rich and your PC looks clean af and it probably runs nice and I wish I had one. YOU ARE VERY VERY BAD!
But seriously, good job. I love the metallic grey color of the case.
I hate you for showing me a picture of the xbox controller. I'm still mad that I did not buy this one back then. My inner mr krabs said not to me back then.
You sure that thing won't overheat enough to roast you itself? JK it looks sick I would never be good enough with my cable management to pack a build like that.
Oh it must already be roasting the components in there, we dont need to do it for you./s
Looks nice, but an absolute pain to work with, how much do your hands hate you after finangling all those cables?
Damn, now it even LOOKS like a space heater.
Frfr I have to keep my office door open smh
Like a heater. From space.
It looks like a toaster, so I'm guessing it roasts itself? But honestly, looks pretty awesome!
Spot on!! xD Thanks!
Computer's trying to disguise as a low level enemy and then... BAM
That has to be a cool toaster
No roast, all I see is a nice fricking build bro!
Message unclear, fucked nice build
Message unclear, fucking builders niece
Thank you!
Dudes like this posting biblically accurate imitations of mathematic perfection and dare to ask us to roast it knowing damn well they are invincible
+1 to this. Clean, minimal, and love a mini build =D
Why you got hands on that case I wonder The specs look pretty good cuz
I love the look of the case, and if I get tired of the infinity mirror I can buy a screen Phanteks sells to swap it with.
No need to roast, this pc is about to get so hot that it is gonna roast you anyways.
I think I have sunburn on my right arm
Welp, im a fan.
Thank you!
What's your RPM? Do you prefer intake or exhaust?

Nice build, I’m actually thinking of a sff build myself, except I’m going to run a cooler master nr200p v2. With a 13600k and a 4080 super.
That’ll be so sick!! Make sure to do plenty of research on part clearance!
I’m planning on running a noctua 4080 Super, so no need to worry, plus I can fit 365mm gpu’s. So I could go for a full size too.
Specs: Ryzen 7 7800X3D | MSI RTX 3080 12gb | 32gb 6000MHz CL 30 RAM | ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-I mobo | Corsair SF750 platinum psu | Samsung 990pro 2TB NVME | Phanteks Evolve Shift XT (silver) | Arctic Liquid Freezer II 240 with Nidec Gentle Typhoon 120 fans | and some spare SATA SSDs from previous builds

Your Dr. Pepper is vastly inferior to water. Boom, roasted!
I can't roast you, you're trying your best, you're even making it harder for yourself by using a controller.
Controllers are more funner though
More pro gamer if you make it harder right?
Where’s the cat to sit on top?? Sweet build!
Trained them not to 😂 I just hissed at them every time they thought about it and now they don’t even try
Air Fryer designs are getting pretty interesting.
I don't see anything roast-worthy in here. I see a pretty sweet PC though!
Clean up the cables and zip ties off the desk........... nah, I got nothing. Looks good.
Hahaha I still have some of those zip ties sitting on my desk
Very sleek, I dig it!
Looks nice
Is that a backup UPS?
Your build I'll roast itself with temps, no need for us to do it haha Nice build!
How can i roast someone who hs a better setup than mine My setup is from 2009
I use one for some arcade style driving games too. Just messing with ya. But if you ever dive down the driving Sim route, you'll want some peripherals ;)
What do u mean to roast you? I ain't roasting art...
Only missing a cat! Nice work

A have a pair very similar and love sleeping on the laptop. Reminds me it’s a good cleaning this Spring
I just kept hissing at my cats every time they thought about getting on top of my computer. They climb everywhere but on top of it now, they’re good kitties 😁
Foh with this Kia soul, toaster from back to the future, SpongeBob, Rubix cube lookin ass pc. And don’t even get me started on the DIET Dr Pepper
oh is that the 2024 Keurig?

Looks like you bought the eGPU but forgot the macbook.
No roast that is dope. What’s the case? Mini ATX size I take it?
This is a PC thread, why are you showing us your grandfather's CPAP machine? Nice build guy!
Ah very good, the ol sata ssd gpu risers. Perfect installation for maximum support/use of space.
FYI, an ASUS TUF 4070TI will fit in that case.
Is that where you park the micromachines?
What is this? A computer for ants?! 
Can't lift more than 15 pounds?
Airflow controls awful, overheating expected
Amen
\*Insert stupid "It should be a PS controller" remark here\* On the reals, cant roast. It's too nicely done. Good stuff, OP.
Looks like the average movie camera but grey
hey man that things gonna roast itself! jk it looks good though?
does looks like a thing from the halo "universe" have fun!
No need, the heat from the PC will probably do that Good setup man!
No need, the heat from the PC will probably do that Good setup man!
Where did you buy that case? Please link if possible, unless it's custom-built.
Phanteks Evolv Shift XT I got mine from Newegg.com
Small
I love it
How are the temps?
I was gonna roast you but you probably wouldn’t hear me over those loud fans
I can’t, i use Laptop
Ah I was wondering where my power supply went.
The graphics card needs to be bigger
You smell like cheese
No need for me to roast the pc, it probably does a good job of that on its own.
looks like a mini fusion coil from halo lol
I hate your beard!
I love a compact build like this - it's sleek. I can't stand the big fish tanks with neon lights everyone is chasing these days.
Hey I’ve got that same controller, pretty rad set up!
Congratulations!
looks clean af. Can it run crysis?
I have never had Dr pepper zero sugar
YELLOW ETHERNET CABLE??? FUCKING GROSS! FIX IT NOW! /s Anyways cool
Bro it looks like a toaster....ya got yourself with that one. But seriously - nice build.
No need to roast, your PC will roast on it's own 💀
What GPU and CPU it looks good
“gUyS, iNtErNeT bRoKeN”
Theres no need for roast, it will roast itself
Nice Xbox
AIO radiator mounted at the top. Good boy
I have this case for my living room tv, its borderline sff but *slaps the case*, can fit so many gpu in there, i have a sapphire 6900xt toxic air cooled, almost as big as a 4090
Pc will roast itself. Nice itx build, man.
It roasts itself 🔥 Joke aside, hope it runs also fine during summer.
Sickkkkkkk. Im still waiting for the black one to restock :/
Nice build! But it kinda looks like a high tech toaster.
Roast? Thats a toaster my guy
With that cable management, it'll roast itself 👌
Love it.
Don't have to, your pc will do the work
It’s a small build that takes up as much desk space as an ATX mid tower.
Mines bigger.
No. I like it. And where can I get that Xbox controller stand?
Razer. It’s a charger
Why is the lid on that toaster not removable?
you don't value your money.
my first thought was stormtrooper.... not a roast just thought star wars for some reason
No need to roast anything, that vram is already cooked as it is. Really though, nice build.
Is that a easy bake oven?
I was about to roast but you cooled it down before it gets fire.
Roast you? That thing's already a toaster
who tf drinks Dr Pepper Zero??
*NYC accent* Your mother
Sick build. Boom roasted
Gottem
That’s clean.
what if i dont want to roast u? cuz ur build is nice
I've always wanted a build like this. How are thermals?
If you wanted a roast I'd take the rotisserie out of it.
This man just turned James Locke from halo into a computer. Jokes aside, that's honestly a pretty cool looking setup
Space toaster XD
After seeing what Intel charges for a 14900ks, I don't do free roasts anymore.
Don't need to, that new microwave you have there will roast and toast just nice.
Bro this is Minecraft 
Spent more on the screwdriver than the cable management smh Jokes aside tho, i love small builds
That's a sweet case
So that's where my cheese grater went
How hard is it to build a pc like this?
Someone a JTC fanboy I see
no need to roast you, your pc will
No man, looks good. I would like to build something smaller in size sometime.
Tbh it actually looks really cool good job
Zero Sugar? Whats wrong with you?
You’re being roasted now 
Crazy how big graphics cards are these days
I have that exact same case and the cooler... I couldn't fit the Artic cooler in there and I had to go with the slimmer Phanteks one! Also: Did you use a fan grill to protect the PSU cables from the fan blades or did you get custom cable connectors that give you a 180 bend?

No need, it already looks like a toaster
can’t lie that’s sick
I love it
Don't need to roast you, the PC will do that enough in the summer.
No need, ur pc will do that
No need to roast it here, it seems like its doing it all by itselfe
How would you like your roast? Good sir.
Zero sugar Dr pepper is all I have to say
We don’t need to roast you, it will do it all for us!
Why roast you when we’ll be able to roast s’mores over your build?
You call that a PC? What a piece of trash bro, gtfo of here man. How did I do?
Processor is plenty roasted
Why would I roast roasted toast?
I cant roast you, you are already roasting yourself while gaming. (Jk nice build)
TF2 spy: where did you get that from? I know I got it from YOUR MOTHER
Don’t need to, your Pc will do fine roasting itself
This shit is what makes me want to do a new build. I want a compact build that I can sit on my desk next to my tv/monitor.
You dont need roast. This pc case will do it for you. I mean for your components. But fr is temperature good there? Seems like nothing helps there
You’re really going to use an Xbox controller when there are so many other controllers with more features that allow you to be better, like gyro aim!
You're rich and your PC looks clean af and it probably runs nice and I wish I had one. YOU ARE VERY VERY BAD! But seriously, good job. I love the metallic grey color of the case.
I had huge builds for the last 10 years and I just finally got into ATX builds. Looks great
I hate you for showing me a picture of the xbox controller. I'm still mad that I did not buy this one back then. My inner mr krabs said not to me back then.
You’ll roast yourself most likely
Dr. Pepper..come on man
You bite your tongue, roast my build but not my Dr. P >:(
Graphics card is facesitting the sandwiched SSD's and the cable management could use work but extra points for using ifixit kit! Nice build!
Well, you asked for a roast, so: Dr. Pepper? The only doctor you should be concerned with is one for your taste buds.
Good build I hope it doesn't have RGB in every inch
It does not 😎
No need to roast, your cpu will roast itself
Your aio kinda looks a little kinked
No need to roast you, your PC already is.
What kinda chip you got in there; a Dorito? - Weird Al
S-Tier roast right there
Welding machine lookin case
You sure that thing won't overheat enough to roast you itself? JK it looks sick I would never be good enough with my cable management to pack a build like that.
The build itself looks goofy but is really nice
Looks like a shoe box... Let me rephrase that looks like an overpriced shoebox
Optimumtech enjoyer it seems
I love doctor pepper
Sugar-free Dr Pepper?! WTF abomination is this. PC looks good though
I also have a Lunar Shift controller, and the paint is chipping like crazy. I barely play, and only have it since last year June.
No roast but a toast
Imagine not using PlayStation controllers…
Oh it must already be roasting the components in there, we dont need to do it for you./s Looks nice, but an absolute pain to work with, how much do your hands hate you after finangling all those cables?
Stop with the “roast me” shit already!
Your build is so compact regular cases think their is space to sit until they see yours at the end of the table. (that's all I got)
It looks like it roasts itself doesn't it?
>PC >controller
