Does anyone know if the cooler would fit inside of this case or if there are any other compatibility issues? Thank you

Why are you putting a 9900k and Vega64 in to an ITX build? What is the system for?

You'd be better off with a better SSD, one that has DRAM cache. The Samsung 860 evo comes in M.2 form factor. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/G9rmP6/samsung-860-evo-250gb-m2-2280-solid-state-drive-mz-n6e250bw

It's for light gaming as well as playing emulators. Overkill yes, Do I need this? no. I just want it.

 

Edit: I will be traveling between the UK, Sweden and Japan now for 3 years so an ITX or a laptop would be pretty good so that's my reasoning but I don't wanna spend 4k on a gaming laptop.

Depending on how 'light' the gaming is, you could probably drop the GTX 1060 and Ryzen 2600 and go with a Ryzen 2200G instead and run integrated graphics for under $700.

 

What you have is just a waste. Do you already own the i9 9900k? It's out of stock at most stores at the moment, so it doesn't have a price on PCPP listed currently so it's not included in the total cost of the system in the PCPP build. It costs about $580 though, so your system build you have linked would end up around $1900 once the price of the i9 9900k is included.

Terrible build, 3/10 for poor part balance, bottle necks and OP where OP parts are not needed.

 

First set out what you will use something for, game types, resolution wanted, FPS wanted etc.

 

Then work out a budget, pick the parts you need most for your requirements first then fill in the gaps to meet your budget. If you go over then work out of that’s acceptable or not. If not trim extras first, then not essential part specs reduced then finally required parts.

 

My requirements were a 144Hz 1080p ITX build. I have a i5 8600 as I play 2-3 CPU heavy games and paired it with an RX580 as freesync monitors are cheaper.

 

I would say I am a pretty casual gamer and I think my PC is a bit OP for my needs but it is what it is and it all came in on budget. I rescued some parts from an old PC like SSDs and fans.

Targeted fps: 400, CSGO is a cpu game

Targeted fps on final fantasy 15: 100+

Emulator: 8k 60+ fps

 

I also own a 32 inch freesync monitor.

I intend to upgrade the GPU in the future and when I have settled down I am planning to upgrade to a 4k+ monitor. i9 9900k are available everywhere in Sweden so getting one of those wouldn't be hard. My original budget for this pc was $3000 so money is no issue.

you don't need 400fps for CS:GO or 8k for emulation when your monitor cannot display either of them.

If you want to make a really overkill gaming PC, don't do ITX.

More fps = Less input lag and yes, after a certain amount of fps it will be the mouse that will be bottleneck.

 

I have preordered an 8k TV which will be played on.

[AvogadrosDog]

ITX for such a hot CPU like an i9-9900k is just generally not recommended. You don't have enough "breathing" room plus the i9-9900k is massive overkill for what you're trying to achieve. Under your scenario, with a budget that big, I would just build a mid tower PC and then just transport to wherever I want (UK and Sweden isn't far whilst if you were doing trans-Atlantic flights then I would reconsider) but it's still overkill if you're okay with it. A Ryzen 2600 is a lot more geared towards what you want and is great value for money - you can spend more of your budget optimising the build with 16GB 3200MHz RAM and a GTX1080 or something.

 

[Amazonsucks]

SSD isnt good, only 16GB RAM, no UPS on a $3000 budget...

[brob]

I doubt an H80i v2 will fit in the case. The radiator with fans is 99 mm thick. The case outside width is 105 mm. Besides, where would the unit go. Not above the motherboard and certainly not in the gpu area.

 

The gpu is 2.5 slots wide. I suspect a very tight fit.

 

It really is not realistic to expect the eight core i9-9900K could be adequately cooled in such a small case. One might be able to achieve the goal using a custom cooling loop that reduced the gpu to a single slot width. Although I am dubious.

 

Consider using an i7-8700 on an H370 motherboard instead.

Scroll down a little for my updated list.

 

Also, $3000 in Sweden is like $1800 in USA due to our massive taxes. What I mean is that everything is so much more expensive.

I was thinking on the top if it fits or whever. I just need it to be in there.

Of course not. It will be on the inside.

[brob]

The radiator dimensions do not permit mounting horizontally. So again, where in the case do you plan to mount it?
