Lian-Li A4-H2O Black SPCC/Aluminum Mini-ITX Computer Case, PCI4.0 Riser Card Cable Included - A4-H2O X4 BLACK

Product Information

However, given you do profesional work, performance in those applications should be your first priority over upgrades down the line. That comes back to the 240mm CLC, it really opens up options for the CPU and creates a pressure system within the case that sucks out lingering hot air. We’ll continue to iterate on our process, but we need to test a good cross-section of cases to establish future test parameters and conditions. It is short, but provides all the important points (illustrated) you need to get an overview of the build process. There’s not a lot of freedom or choice in how the system is built, but that’s not what this case is here to do.

The other is being adjacent to the boutique side of the market, where enthusiasts are willing to pay. This chassis is decidedly for users who will be installing a dedicated video card (rare bird themselves, these days). The chassis can accommodate an SFX power supply as standard, alternatively the bracket can be removed to mount an SFX-L power supply. With just 11L capacity, this PC case has an incredibly small footprint but an intelligent design, maximising hardware capacity.

Besides the idle temp of the 7700 is a bit high, but I think it suits my needs really well and i don't plan to change it for a long while. With no case-mounted LEDs to indicate power-on status or hard drive activity, hooking up the chassis' cables to your motherboard once the board is mounted inside isn't very involved. The GPU fan speed is chosen by the nominal speed of the fan under the standard VBIOS temperature targets, while the CLC fan speed is chosen based on noise targets. New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . The default setup is actually the worst on the chart, but the 53-degree-over-ambient load average is still completely fine -- we’re in the 70s when ambient is added in.

Also managed to get the cord out from the fans right for the pin header, didn't even need the extension cables. We ended up needing to squish down on the tubes with the side panel to make it close, but we don’t think it’s to a problematic degree. To do this, the bracket under the cover plate can be removed to facilitate the installation of the radiator. Lian Li designs most of its own cases, but this particular effort is based upon the A4-SFX design by DAN Cases, a boutique maker of small PC cases out of Germany.Additionally, improving the design of the previous A4-SFX, this model can accommodate a 240 AiO with the radiator in a dedicated chamber. Only on the motherboard I used, I had to mount the bracket that goes on the back of the board rotated because there was a capacitor in the way. I can wait if it means the NR200P is the better option, though I admit, having a 4090 FE and 7800x3D laying around for several months would be torture while I fantasize about how much I can do with them.

These panels are held in place by pins, but are also bent around the back and further secured by thumb screws, which means you won't have to deal with tiny recessed screws that wear out over time.

A GPU with a vapor chamber is already in effectively its worst orientation when it's installed in a standard ATX case horizontally, because it’s fighting gravity at that point. Thanks to the sophisticated design of the interior, the hardware capacity has been increased compared to the previous DAN Cases A4-SFX. My current plan is to bring over a 4090 FE, a 7800x3D, and an ITX motherboard (still debating on which one, since they all seem to have their quirks), and RAM/storage to Japan, then finish building there in a NR200P Max, which would give me the benefit of not having to worry about bringing an AIO water cooler through TSA/airports.As this would be my first SFF build, I'd like to ask for some advice/feedback on what people recommend more. It also has some impressive GPU thermals for the size due to clever airflow management, but there are drawbacks, including the cable management. This design has roots that go way back, and Lian Li has brought it forward over the years, so this is going to be an important one for us to keep developing our test methodology. Its also worth noting, Intel 13th gen CPUs are on their 700 series motherboards, which will not have an upgrade path. At the very top is a large and rather prominent plaque to let you know that both Lian Li and DAN are the brains behind the chassis.

For more information or detail (temperatures, benchmarks, noise) I suggest my blog post ( Air cooled Lian Li DAN Cases A4-H2O Build - hrdwreblog) or Video. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. There are other tweaks versus the H2O’s precursor, but most of the focus is on the liquid cooling, given the name.

All that said, the A4-H2O supports SFX-L models, with the obvious reduction of cable management space below the PSU. If you're looking for a compact and sleek small form factor case that can house well-cooled gaming hardware, then it's worth taking a look at the LIAN LI DAN Cases A4-H2O. The expanded room doesn’t stop there, either, as the A4-H2O supports a CPU liquid cooling system, whereas the original DAN A4-SFX was designed for use with a low-profile fan-cooled heatsink.
