Question on Small form factor PCs....

[Watashi]

Although I do not plan on building a small form factor PC for some time, I was curious about motherboards, and their overclocking potentials for smaller form factors. I know that with more premium boards, you get better overclocking because the hardware on the main board is better. To my understanding the ability of these boards to overclock better is small, but measurable. As someone that likes to overclock my chips, I'm just curious where the small form factor market is in reference to high-end main boards. Also, if I did a small form factor build, I would be running a custom loop, so temperature shouldn't be a concern for the chip.

This little piece of crap get to 5.2GHz.

Edit: Details would help, right? 8700k (de-lid) Z370-I

Yep. I built it for portable VR. Not like for a backpack, but for bringing with me to others houses and parties and whatnot.

No, it's the SF600. It's an SFX.

Thanks! It's the NCASE M1. All the details are in the build log here. Don't want to hijack @Doomerson's thread.
