So I hope all you guys are having a nice day! :)

 

I have already built a PC but that was months ago, so I want to build a Mini ITX PC.

I already selected all Parts, but I don't know if all the LED's and fans will fit and connect.

Here are the Parts;

 

Case:

Corsair Carbide Air 240 (Cube, Schwarz)

GPU:

ASUS GTX-660 Ti DirectCU II 2GB GDDR5, PCI-E x16 3.0 (2.05GB)

CPU:

Intel Core i5 6500 (LGA 1151, 3.20GHz)

RAM:

Corsair Vengeance LPX (2x, 4GB, DDR4-3200, DIMM 288)

PSU:

Corsair RM Series RM550 (550W)

LEDs:

2X PHOBYA LED-Flexlight HighDensity (Red, 36, 300mm)

Fans:

Corsair AF120 Quiet Edition, Rote LED, 2 Pack (120mm)

Mainboard: 

MSI Z170I GAMING PRO AC (LGA 1151, Intel Z170, Mini ITX)

CPU Cooler:

Raijintek Triton 240mm

So, my Question is if I can actually build this RIG. My main problem is, I don't know if I have enough fan ports and where do I plug in the LEDs? (7 Fans or 5 Fans, 2 300mm LEDs) I know how to build the RIG itself but I have no clue where to plug in all those fans and LEDs.

 

I apologize for my bad English, I'm from Switzerland. :)

 

Greetings - Luca Miani

Plug fans into motherboard or if case comes with fan hib. Also why a 660Ti? Assuming you already own it correct? Also use PcPartPicker.com as it usually,is,pretty good if something is not compatble.

The 660 Ti just looks dumb next to the skylake CPU.

Probably just go get a R9 390.

I don't think you have any issues with the fans, but if you ever need more fans than the motherboard can hit on, then a pwm hub??<--Correct this for me if i am wrong.

Yes, I already own one. So I thought about just using it for this build, I mean I will safe some money and its still upgradeable. And it's just a LAN PC, I won't work with it.

Then it will do, but prepare to upgrade it in about 1-2 years.

Alright makes sense. Can always add like a 380 or 390 later dowm the road. Also as stated, put this in pcpartpicker.com
