New Custom Rig Recommendations

ok ah.. it cools down, but personally. I did 1 time ITX build and I totally regret and dislike it. it's too weak for me as a system. interms or price over functions and features, also cooling.

TBH, i totally agree with you. it is really PITA to build and with all ITX tax, I personally think it is not worth it. if you want to go small, those mini pc speciality eg minisforum, mac mini, etc is much better choice.

And for my case, My Mini ITX Deep Cool CH170 digital looks almost the same size as my MATX Jonsbo Z20 Case.
Of course my CH170 is able to host a long 304mm RTX 5070ti while my Jonsbo Z20 has 231mm RTX 5070. but i do have abit of buyer's remorse building mini ITX setup

I don't mind being small but can't have the features or functions I needed and have to do lots of compromises.. use till like this, might as well just use a Mac Mini suak.
