Well, you see, I don't live in a tiny box so my computer using a little more space for superior performance, thermals and serviceability is a good trade off.

>>106864035
I have a space that's about the size of an ATX case, and nothing else to put in that spot. So I see no reason to fuck around trying to tetris parts together into something more compact with less airflow.

>the amount of skillet seethe at superior ITX chads

>>106864035
Why would I spend more money and more time for less performance and more noise? I have the space for a nice sexy mid tower so I might as well use it.
>>106864296
For the amount of time and money you spend building an ITX PC (and seething about it on 4chan) you could find a wife who you don't have to hide your computer from

>>106864035
ITX is retarded, the formd t1 is shit, I'll never forgive reddit consoomers for baiting me into this bullshit

>>106864035
ITX really is just a bunch of shit in a little box isnt it

sour grapes for anyone too retarded to put together a lego set

itx in this gpu economy? every recent gpu sucks down like 300-500w.

Problem with itx is gpu are so big. Had this in a 9L console style case but moved it to an nr200. None of the 5090 fits except for the founders edition.

I have picrel, jonsbo tk-0. great case but there are so few GPUs that will fit in it.

>>106864035
doesn't take much to make a drooling idiot laugh, eh? good for you.

Mine is mounted so I don't really need a small case. Might get an matx case for better compatibility.

Mine is and I hate it. Don't even know why I built it like that.
I'm going back the ATX because of more m.2 storage

>>106864035
no point

I've been an ITX fag for over a decade but I'm starting to think if you really want something that small and/or portable just get a laptop and hook it up to your monitor.

>>106864950
How much storage do you need? Mine has 2 4tb m2 and 1 4tb SSD and I think it's too much. I have a server for movies and stuff so I don't fill up the m2s at all.

>>106864980
I'd like to use m.2 storage more because they are cheaper than SATA SSDs. The ones that count at least.

Damn so these things actually suck? Was just looking into it even though I had decided on getting a 5070ti laptop and just picked one out but then I read people say these things were better but I also don't know.

>>106864035
Op here, just wanted to add that I'm trans and I got the case from my wife's bull as a gift

Begone with your bloated monstrosity.

I used to do the SFF thing. Ncase, then a Cerberus X. Finally got sick of crushing my hands and fiddling with things and got a full mid-tower, and it is just so much easier to work with I'm never going back.

>>106864035
My only ITX pc is an n100 dvr

>>106864843
My sentry2 can hold a 300mm gpu at 7L, my issue was the low profile cpu cooler.

>>106864950
You can't get the same performance for a laptop though
And manufacturers are somehow allowed to pretend that hardware with the same name in desktops and laptops have the same specs

>>106866357
Unironically why are zoomers so into sff? I want one to replace a laptop and I travel constantly but everywhere you look online people just want smol
Makes no sense given the premium on parts, SFX power is basically double price for the same psu

not a zoomer but originally both a tangible need for portability as well as autism, now just autism. my ideal world is like a perfectly filled tetris grid. unfortunately this extends to my spending habits, where $0 is to me the perfect account balance.

That's cool. This one can fit 304. Bet they make the cases specifically for the founders edition cards.

Imagine being a fanlet. Women need at least 200mm (~7.9 inches) to be satisfied.

>>106864035
I need expansion slots for my wifi card and another for my pcie capture card, unfortunately I won't be able to join the cool club

My FX-9590 uses 220W. How is this donkey dick going to fit inside your cuckbox?

>>106867020
But you spend more on sff shit

>>106864950
Same, fucking mad that I can't fit an extra 3.5 drive in mine.

>>106864594
>implying I didn't finish the build
I did tho, with a custom loop and everything. Then after a year realized I wanted the expansion possibilities of a proper workstation as my interests shifted away from gayming to AI and networking.
