So guys, I did do my final build but I do have some issues and questions of "cooling" the system.

Does the cooler fit the "Motherboard"?

 

The case is now available in my country "finally"

 

Any case, suggestion are welcome!

 

- Case Mini-ITX Lian Li TU150 

- Corsair SF 600W SFX 80+ Gold

- Intel Core i5 9600K 6-Core (3.7GHz-4.6GHz)

- Be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 (Cooler)

- MSI MPG Z390I GAMING EDGE AC

- G.Skill 16GB DDR4 3600MHz CL18

- ZOTAC GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Twin Fan

- SSD Kingston A2000 1TB M.2 NVMe 2280

 

In addition, 

3x Be quiet! Shadow Wings High-Speed for bottom and front air cooling /I guess rear doesn´t matter having since the cooler is big, or does it?

 

I could choose the i7 9700K or i7 8700 but would I benefit from it much?

 

Hugs!

Yeah, you have adequate room. THe DRP4 is 162.3mm and the case has a max cpu cooler height of 165mm(170mm)

The board has a middle mounted CPU socket so you wont have any issues with the cooler blocking the pcie slot or touching the top of the case.

It doesnt hurt to have an extra exhaust fan, see if you have enough room first though, on a lot of boards in mini itx cases the drp4 will come very close to the rear panel of the case. In the example of my Rajintek metis, with the drp4 in there, there is no room for an exhaust fan between the cooler and rear panel.

So dont buy an exhaust fan just yet, see if you need it first or if one will even fit.


Passive exhaust out this case should be pretty good, but considering the intake fan configuration, theres a chance that hot air may pool at the top of the case with the cpu cooler acting as an exhaust. I heavily doubt it will affect temperatures much if at all, but if a fan gets everything in there cooler, doesnt hurt to have it.

Thanks for ur reply.

 

Good point. Ye I have 1 fan for the case that it fits but yes, in therms of cooling It doesn´t pay off going to AIO right?

 

2 intakes come from above and 1 intake from front but as u said well, the hot air tend to be in the top, sadly the case hasn´t but its a sexy new case :P 

Ur case was one of my buy "list" but they are out of stock.

 

Any suggestion besides that? I mean, what would u do with the cooling?
