recommend smallest itx build please

[hysteriakx]

hi all, i need help in building the smallest itx pc that can house an gtx970

cpu i5,
mobo (hopefully with wireless ac, if the price is cheaper than getting an wireless ac usb adapter)
PSU
Case
16gb ram (open lots of tab + multitasking)
windows os

no need ssd/monitor.

thanks in advance all

from tradepac pricelist, Asus has the cheapest itx mobo without wifi. throw in usb $30-40 will still be cheaper than those with wifi.

small in terms of volume? anyway, gtx970 seems to be less than 300mm. cm130, corsair 250d are some models u can look at.

Get Gigabyte H97N WiFi if you budget allows. Don't forget your miTX doesn't have expansion slot for internal network cards. USB is not really a better choice.

Raspberry pi 2 consider smallest...but don fit most of ur requirements.

y not? usb does not take up expansion slots, in the end, still get to save some money. i tried usb and pci wifi. not much difference in performance. unless one really needs tat extra port.

wjhere to buy in sg?

This particular case has to be purchased directly from the case maker themselves(not available in SG)

And it is not exactly cheap either, be forewarned.

All in plus shipping to SG USD$210, but the finish and design is in an entire league of its own, even surpassing most of Lian Li's own designs even though they produced it for Ncase.

should be settling on thermaltake core v1. can it fit most gtx970? and which power supply should i get? around 500 to 550watts should be enough right?

The V1 has a gpu clearance of 255mm if you intend on using the included 200mm front fan, or 285mm without. So keep this in mind when choosing your preferred GTX 970.

A reliable 500W with an 80plus rating PSU is sufficient.
