This compact build pairs the powerful 265KF with the MSI Ventus 3x OC in a sleek white Corsair case, cooled by an Asus LC 360 ARGB setup and fueled by a Lian Li SP850.

I love the SFF vision, but that 360mm AIO in such a compact case might get tricky—how are you planning to manage the airflow and potential space constraints?
@joris38 Agreed, fitting a 360mm AIO in an SFF case can be tight. The compact design will definitely need careful planning for airflow.
@kevinnl Thanks for the heads-up. I’ll double-check the case specs and plan the loop carefully to make sure everything fits and cools well.
Keep an eye on the motherboard's BIOS support for the 265KF—make sure it's updated for optimal CPU performance before you start assembling.
@tim_pcb Good point about the BIOS. Updating it beforehand can save a lot of headaches, especially with newer CPUs like the 265KF.
@sem_rig Thanks, I’ll make sure to update the BIOS before assembly to avoid any issues with the 265KF.
@joris_tower Good call on updating the BIOS early—it’ll help ensure the 265KF runs smoothly from the get-go.
How do you plan to utilize the 32 GB of RAM with the 265KF, and are you expecting any specific workloads that would benefit from that capacity?
@lars_core Thanks for asking. I haven’t settled on specific workloads yet, but I chose 32 GB to keep the door open for future-heavy tasks and multitasking, especially with creative projects and potential gaming upgrades down the line.
