Very interesting! and a very clean modification. The A2000 is definitely pushing it, the single slot T1000 50W isn't actually that slow and pretty comparable to a GTX1650 laptop GPU, weirdly it also comes in 8GB model. I have seen some single slot modifications of the A2000 that apparently work quite well, with a shunt mod you could permanently lower the wattage to 50W as well but of course modifying an A2000 is probably not something many want to do :)

nice men, Brasil aqui

I think it would be better to use a single slot rx 6400 but its still looks so cool

my god I love this series

I love it i love it i love it

Try A310 Or RX6400 And Msi Rtx3050 LP 6gb

Wow!

Very cool indeed! My use case would be an OPNsense router/firewall by adding in a 4 port 2.5 Gbe NIC.

Hi, first of all great video! I also decided to upgrade this pc's fans, but now unfortunately every time I start the pc, the shown fan-error appears during a supportassist self scan dueing the bood. Where you able to disable this annoing self test? BR

cool! I like to have one!!!

Give me sir 😂😂😂

nice build but get a not t series cpu and a bigger power supply

I think this boi needs an intake fan. But where to place it?

Nice video, my friend. I saw your video this day. You can try a400 or a1000 or simply use a gtx 1650 or intel arc 380. I guess they only use 75 watt with a decent gaming experience.

A very pleasant video to watch! Really nice to see you try out different things with day to day hardware.

Seriously impressive TBH, I've been skeptical of these SFF Thinkstations but these tweaks together create a seriously capable machine for its size. Nice job! I want to make a few of these things

I actually have almost exactly the same build. I've got an old Optiplex 7010 SFF and an RTX A2000. Since the A2000 is a low profile card, it fits just perfectly, yet it also packs some power. It's my daily PC and I love it!

bro u insane , i bought an new Dell Precision Tower 5820 with i9 10920x 128ram and RTX a2000 12gb for 400$ , and deside to do some mini itx setup with a2000 + to upgrade cooling system cause 10920x is overhitting and saw u videos about it , fanatstic thank you !

bro just did the ultimate diy steam machine

sweet project!

Funny how the KZfaq algorithm works. I am currently watching this video on one of these machines that I managed to get from work for free! Mine has a i9-10908XE, 64 gb of ram and, a Radeon Pro W5700. Love this computer to death!

Can't you use a "Riser Cable" instead of a "Riser Board" to keep the board and maybe a separate power supply external to the case? Should give you more room to cool everything off and maybe keep your SSD enclosure inside.

nice job but my secondery pc hp g800 mini pc im play low setting gta v nomaly good proform also use g800 server haha its good and thank you

really good mini pc

NO NO NO NOT THE SATA POWER sata power can easily burn your motherboard or psu toasty bros fried a pc with one of these sata connectors don't use them

btw i have the 9th gen i5 for a dell mini bios oveclock can be 3.70 also maybe upgrade cpu

I've always appreciated the white look of Japanese audio gear. This would pair nicely with my Roland.😊

your system is begging for more watts man, the problem with mini pc or laptop are there's no way to increase them. whether you change the power brick from 65w to 300w, the system will still cap the power draw from the wall to it's original spec. I think your system will run better if the gpu draw power separately from the motherboard, those i7 definitely can running at 4.5+ ghz all core with no problem if it doesn't being considerate with his power-hungry neighbour haha.

01MN631 or 01MN632 Heatsinks are copper and have VRM cooling provisions you can search Tiny5 65w heatsink. If you start from scratch simply get a 65w processor with 3ghz or so non turbo clocks and turn off the turbo in BIOS. The media playback and Zoom computer I set up for the hall has an 8700 with turbo turned off to help with temps. It also has the copper heatsink with thermal pads for the VRM.

What about emulators? I would love to see how they perform as well.

hdd? inly i5? Boring. You should put there ssd at least 500gb and at least i7. You done nothing good for this pc. Stock crap, not worth watching.

Boring music.

Useful video, however it would be much more helpful if you canned the background music when demonstrating the volume of the fans!

Could have added the ssd back on the cpu cooler with the new space it had in the new case

when i saw the 8pin connected to sata was like D: noooooooooo

I love my sff acer predator G1 710 so far the best cpu . Been rocking it for a decade this 1080ti & i7 7700 tandem just don’t give up on me. I want a home lab server/ nas to use for productivity and was loving the micro/mini/tiny ff’s. Looking to see what other are trying and you gave me ideas. I am non tech person but loves having the nicest french kiss techs out there

The power supply limits you from utilizing each full CPU and GPU performance. I would aquire a 180W Lenovo one and you will see no issues and don‘t need adjustments.

🇷🇺😙

You could have gone for a low profile gpu

Use the copper heatsink, or at a minimum add some cooling to VRM with thermal pads or a fan. Also 8700 is better than 9700 due to hyperthreading. If chasing performance make sure you are using Dual Rank memory (if it is 16GB make sure it has 16 chips per memory stick. Or it says "2Rx8". Or "Ranks: Dual" in CPUz. I have better CPUz score with dual rank 2400 than single rank 2666. (Rank does not mean channel. Run dual rank and dual channel.). Also run GhostSpectre to turn off what meltdown/spectre mitigations you may have. And possibly use older BIOS without microcode updates.

Other option: Clevo P750 or P770, Dsanke BIOS and QTJ1 CPU. RTX3080 MXM. 30x series heatsink from TaoBao. Cost: 8700k 32GB Clevo P750TM1 $270. MXM 3080 16GB MXM $315. Heatsink $91 + shipping ~$40. QTJ1 CPU (optional) $70. Speed? Very quick. Currently waiting for the heatsink*, but even at 80w TDP (down from 165w) it is faster than old 1070. The 1070 MXM is actually faster than the desktop 1070!?!? But the MXM 3080 is more alike Desktop 3070. * I was able to cut 3 corners off the original 10x GPU heatsink and drill new holes to mount it. But it is not ideal. New heatsink has water+air cooling option for $20 more, but I did not order that option.

Lol, maybe room for GaN PSU inside on top of CPU side? Put AC power jack on back? Or DC DC supply? Possible option stack MosFETs in PCIe power circuit and shunt mod?

Lenovo M920x and P330 models would possibly come with dual NVMe slots and Quadro GPUs. Also you can have 65w processors if you get the copper heatsink that also has VRM thermal pads. I would highly recommend the 90w power supply. Or with GPU the 135w, 170w or 230w (Legion laptops or P series workstations came with these)

Content creation during international trips. Now he can fly without having to use a constantly thermal throttling laptop.

4 port networking card, its the perfect Router

i would have just used a low profile rtx 3060

drill holes in side panel, 3d print a duct to the PSU. Give it very easy and special airflow.

Undervolting might eke out a bit more performance on this cpu, since at a lower voltage it can run a higher frequency at the same wattage, in theory. I've heard of such things. Assuming the BIOS supports that, of course. Also wondering if the better CPU supports a better ram speed.

Nice job, really clean.

An 8-core 16-thread Xeon E-2278GEL would keep the 35w TDP for more stable power delivery and thermals.
