This is my A4-H2O PC rebuild. I transferred the parts from my NR200P MAX PC to to the Lian Li A4H2O case. It took me awhile to actually get the case and build it even but I'm happy that I got to do so. I'm probably gonna use this PC for a bit or until I decide to upgrade to newer hardware.
Let me know what you folks think!

I like that you included a list of gear used to create your video. It would be even better if you could include a more extensive list of tools used, such as audio recording equipment, lighting equipment, and what software you use for video editing etc. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in that. Even simple things like your preferred set of screw drivers. Maybe I'm crazy but I'm interested in those kinds of details. It would also be nice to see some details on CPU and GPU thermals under load, so maybe another video dedicated to that?

yo, still using it? if this could use the T30 phanteks id be all over it. would it give a good result having the fans sucking in cool air from the outside to in, so they also then push air down as opposed to up and out (which would suck hot air up and over the radiator fins)

I am really digging this case to build on, especially the white one but a great fear also hindering me as the first SFF build. Would the temperature be better in this case compared to NZXT H510 flow?

@Jelvin 2 жыл бұрын

Although I don’t have/own the H510 Flow, it’s assumed that temps will be a bit better since it has more room for parts to breathe and more airflow since you can add more fans. IMO, In general, sffpc’s especially sandwich style cases will suffer from high temps with higher end hardware since all of the stuff are placed so compactly. If you’re looking into an SFF build that’s pretty okay with temps, I’d go for the NR200/P cases.

Nice build. Why did you choose to upgrade though? From what research I’ve done the NR200 runs a lot cooler and is cheaper. Was it mainly for looks and smaller size? I love the look but I’m worried a 3080ti + 12700 might run too hot in this.

@Jelvin 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you! Apart from the GPU, It’s not really an upgrade but a case swap :) I actually wanted the case because of the size but I do agree that in terms of thermals, the NR200P MAX gives a lot more headroom. What I have is actually just the 12600k + 3070ti. If I were to get the 12700/k and 3080 above, I would’ve needed to undervolt it in this case hence my choice of parts.

The build was gorgeous, Jelvin! I was planning on building a similar a4-h20 with the same aio choice of you. From what I have found, for phanteks glacier one, Dan the designer suggests that the tube should be routed underneath the psu rather than the route you went with(over PSU). However after watching your video I was planning to route it over too because the result is just way more clean than the recommended route. Did you discover any difficulty when installing the AIO this way?

@Jelvin Жыл бұрын

Hi Sharke! Thanks for the feedback. Really appreciate it. The reason why I routed it to the side is because I wanted to place SSD's at the bottom and experiment what I can do with the space (if there is any). That said, I'd probably route the tubes at the bottom if I'm not putting anything down there since it won't bend the tubes as much. There weren't any problems but it took some time to get the configuration right. Do check my reference in this album imgur.com/a/BevVE0E. So far, haven't found any problems after some months of use.

hey jelvin, i got a quick question. I am tranfering my drives from my current atx pc. I have 2 sata ssds, 2 nvmes, and one 3.5in hdd. My satas are 2tb each, nvmes are 500 and 1tb, and my 3.5in is 4tb. I wanna keep my 4tb, and i was wondering if there was enough clearance underneath the gpu, cause im running a rtx 2060 super. I might actually use the ssd brackets that u had reviewed in ur hacks video. But if there is enough height clearance, between the base of the case and the underside of the vertically mounted gpu, is it theoretically possible to both dual mount the ssds with the bracket, and friction hold the 3.5in? Cause i think if it is feasible, then the 3.5in can also double as a stabilizer/vertical gpu mount sag guard by adding more stability.

@Jelvin 11 ай бұрын

I don't think that the 3.5in HDD would fit unless you have a short card i.e. an ITX card. There wouldn't be any other clearance for an HDD apart from the compartment where the GPU is so I'm not sure if all of your components will fit. :( The HDD will be a bit to big for the components to friction fit at the front I believe so unless it's a smaller card, the best you can do is the have the HDD stand beside the GPU which I don't really advise.

@@Jelvin Does the aio pump cover reduce noise as well? I have the same one but the side panel won’t fit on because the tubes can’t bend all the way down with the pump cover on.

@Jelvin Жыл бұрын

I actually didn't notice any noticeable difference in noise with and without the cover. I still have mine on and I didn't mind the noise levels sitting around 2 feet away from the PC. What orientation did you place the pump block? I have mine to the left and it fit with a little bending; no problems closing the panel on my end whatsoever.

Awesome build - what are the temperatures compared to your old case?

@Jelvin Жыл бұрын

Sorry I didn't do a proper comparison since the parts are a little bit different but the temps are a bit hotter since I'm using slightly better parts .

Are those double-sided disks? People say that single-sided SSDs bend when mounted on that board because they don't have enough thickness to fill the spaces between the thermal pads

@Jelvin 8 ай бұрын

WD 500GB is single sided and 1TB black is double afaik. I never had any problems even until now.

Quick answer: CPU: 68C Ave GPU: 62C Ave I have some notes here on my other video but the setup was with the Phanteks Glacier MP240 as the radiator but T30's for the fans.

Can ANY of these cases house the New 40 series GPUs specifically the RTX 4080….?

@Jelvin Жыл бұрын

Not sure since there are no specs yet out from other manufacturers. I wouldn't even recommend putting a 40 series card in an SFF case (other than cases like in the NR200 line)

@@Jelvin i just read, Size wise they are a few mm smaller than a 3090 so any case that can fit a 3090 should work mostly for 4080 at least. Yes, i think the NR200p/Max is the best case for it.

NR200P of you want ease of assembly but A4H2O if you want a smaller case. Neither are budget builds in my opinion so I just recommend to get whatever is most accessible to you.

Unfortunately I don’t have any concrete numbers but noise levels are the same with both cases but temps on the A4H2O are hotter. Can’t do a direct comparison too since I had a 3060 Ti on my NR200P Max while I have a 3070 Ti on the H2O.
