How do you plan to manage cable management and airflow in the SFF case with this component layout?
With this SFF case and a high-end CPU and GPU, what kind of performance or use case are you aiming for?
@loudtower Thanks for asking. I'm planning this build for heavy multitasking and creative work, leveraging the CPU and GPU power in a compact form factor.
@silentloop Considering the heavy multitasking and creative work, have you thought about how the 96 GB RAM might impact performance versus a more typical setup for your intended tasks?
Make sure to check the motherboard BIOS for any updates or settings that optimize performance for DDR5 at 6000 speeds, especially in an SFF build where timings can vary.
@sanne_builds Have you looked into how the Hyper 212 cooler will handle the 265KF in an SFF case, given its size and the potential heat buildup?
@eva_rail I haven't installed it yet, so I can't say for sure, but the Hyper 212 is a known performer and should be fine in the SFF case once I get a chance to test it.
@silentloop Agreed, the Hyper 212 should be a solid choice for the 265KF once you get it installed and tested in the SFF case.
@tim_chip Thanks for the support. The Hyper 212 should work well once it's in the case, but I'll need to see how it behaves after installation and testing.
