How many watt is your PSU. The noctua is the best silent solution already.

The only solution is to get a higher watt with higher 80 efficiency so it runs on lower loads and thus staying cool.
Not sure about the metalfish, but i had the delta 500w 80 gold 1u and it is quieter than my GTX1070 mini in both load and idle.

Looks like it doesnt even have a normal 80plus effeciency. Guess you're putting in some load with your setup that's why it runs a little hot.
Well.. the loud fan is quite expected on a flex setup. That's why i changed to a slighly bigger case that supports SFX

Hnghhhhh guys. It looks like it will be coming out soon, potential RTX3090 ITX rig

the NR200P should be able to find, but according to sources, October will have a restock.

Personally, i feel that it's rather flimsy especially where most taobao ITX case offerings comes in thick aluminum sheets instead of thin steel sheets like this NR200. I didnt own one tho... just had a look at a display. The finish is just like any CM cases.

Yeah it is a very versatile case if you gonna leave it on the table. Should fir your expectations well. Im also tempted to get one but i also need my pc to be portable.

The reason why most ITX case comes with thick solid aluminum construction because for the purpose of it being portable. Most people build tiny ITX like Dan A4, Ghost S1 etc because they want to carry it around.. like me .

there is no 3080 that can fit in the ghost S1 except for the founders edition.. even the slimmest evga RTX3080 XC3 will be blocked by a notch on the ghost S1's panel.

And since the founders is a blow through design, the ghost S1's sandwich layout will choke the 2nd fan and you're giving the card a death sentence.



Im personally using the sans warhead. It's a small factory so expect the build quality to be utter crap and most of the screw holes doesnt fit properly... and a very flimsy mobo mount which i epoxy glued brass pieces to enforce the rigidity. All things aside, i'd say this is the hands down the most optimized layout for super small ITX cases.

there are 2 versions the 2 slot version will fit the evga 3080 XC3 no problem...if you use the 3slot version, the ventus 3X and palit 3080 game pro should fit. but because of the low cpu fan clearance with the 3slot model, you will be limited to using the NL9 which is not sufficient for anything higher than a ryzen 3600 unless you can find a way to force fit in a 120mm AIO. (where the tubing will be in the way of the gpu)

Also do note that at the moment there is no safe SFX PSU to run the 3080...Corsair's SF750 will be running close to 80% load so It's not recommended. Im waiting for the coolermaster 850w gold SFX to launch and see the reviews before deciding on the upgrade.


my plan was to get the asus tuf where i will saw off the tuf logo notch and shove the pcie power pin directly into the gpu without the connector housing to solve the clearance issue. Will definitely post pictures of it, meanwhile this is how it looks like currently

the greatwall 850 is a scam.. it’s just a rebranded SF750 with cheaper components.

The cooler master was recalled because the fan curve was too loud and too aggressive users complaining.
But when it comes to stress test, it seems to be able to handle 1kw spikes. Should be good if youre not really concerned with noise.

I will be the guinea pig as ive ordered the CM 850sfx gold. Since it comes with 10 years warranty i think should be a good product since they’re confident untill give 10 years warranty. Altho i dont really know how to benchmark a psu lol. as long as it doesnt crash then it’s good to me.

My humble sugggestion if you dont want much headaches: NR200... it’s only very very slightly bigger than the Ncase.
For me, i just enjoy the challenge of making a powderful PC that fits in a bagpack so im going ahead haha

it’s ironed out already with the new driver, sadly at the cost of 5-7% fps loss.
Yeah NR200 and that Ncase is kinda at a limbo.. it’s not big but not small either.

The evga is 2.2slots and because of the side panel sliding mount of the ghost clones, it will be in the way. So only a perfectly 2 slot founders can fit.

besides the thermal on the XC3 is pretty bad. Id recommend just getting a case that supports a 3 slot card. most 3070 AIB will be re-using the coolers for the 3080s and 3090... untill the market saturated and they start releasing budget (reference design) variants.

underwhelming with an AIO and bad gpu thermals. avoid this case.

NR200 is the current champion for mainstream SFF case... but if you're feeling adventurous, there's plenty of taobao options or the more boutique ones that will cost a kidney.

not sure if buy from the official site, but taobao has them and that should be about 10 days to reach through taobao.

This was quite some time ago.. Having an ITX makes 14 days hotel quarantine much more bearable

seems like a really nice case.. but not cheap.

If you dont mind the ugly red fans, can consider the thermalright axp90 copper. it's better than the blackridge.

Another round of quarantine. Cukur sff rig that can fit in a bagpack.

Totally depends on your budget. At nr200 price, your choice is severly limited with maybe tecwares and up to meshlicious which is slightly under 500.

Majority of itx cases are priced at RM600+ Even taobao ones. Unless you get literally tin kosong but those will not support 3slot GPU.
