I'm building this system tomorrow. I've built many systems in the past, but never mini ITX. Any tips/tricks on how this will go smoothly? Thanks. attachicon.gifCapture.PNG

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

Mini ITX means he either goes GTX 970 ITX or R9 Fury Nano

I like it. Very well balanced, but I do believe there is a mITX version of the R9-390 or 390X.

I don't see why you guys think that I'm still putting the parts together when I said i building this system tomorrow. This is my receipt... Lol

well, tips for mini ITX: get a magnetic screwdriver, you are not gonna be able to pick up those screws when you have shit in that case

Blast it. If the OP can afford a Nano, it might be worth it to him. But considering the overall budget, I would guess not.

FYI I already have the parts waiting at home...

 

It's a good build. I hope it serves you well. Are you going to do a build log?

I'm not sure yet. I really think this is a cool build though, I'm actually building for a client but we'll see. Do you think I should?

 

Is there a reason not to? It's a well configured build that all of us on the forums would like to see.

Yeah everything is compatible that I know of. Do you think the Xeon was a good choice for the processor? Take into mind that I won't be overclocking with this build.

 

Yes, definitely. It has i7 performance for the cost of an i5.
