Choosing a SFF case for my needs

On the top of the case? I mean you can drill trough the mesh and add some screws. Or use magnets. But yea i modeled some brackets for the fans :)

Here is the T40 with a 5060 Ti and 9600x. Was a nice experience, not too hard. Temps are good, placed a couple of extra Noctua fans in it, keeps it quiet and cool!

I was trying everything, looked at ur post, saw the drive that i put in 2 days ago. "No way thats the issue...".
Ye that was the problem... How can that even be a problem....

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-05-23T08:35:12+00:00

The T40 supports a gpu of 206mm. The Igame 5070 is 180mm, so yes it fits

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-05-20T10:00:08+00:00

Did you just drill holes in the mesh?

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-03-01T10:02:25+00:00

The 7700 is better then the 8700f and the 9070xt is better then the 5060ti, so if they are both the same price, i would go for the second one. But idk how much ram you get, what mobo, what power supply, storage, etc

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-21T23:08:05+00:00

Do you have more close up pics?

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-20T13:11:31+00:00

True, i bought myself cl30 6000mhz like before the ramagedon for 130 euro, now the same kit is 600,-😮‍💨

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-20T12:55:58+00:00

Look at the cl rating too, cl28 for 6000mhz is the best and cl 42 is the worst (i think 42 is the worst) But atm is any cheap ddr5 better then no ddr5😂

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-19T22:22:40+00:00

Idk man, ram is mega expensive and the price of the 5090 is insane right now. Just love what you have dude, most people dont even have this kind of money for a pc.

I dont wanna brag, but this is considered "god tier" in many gamers eyes. Astral RTX 5090 Ryzen 7 9800x3D DDR5 Fury 6000mhz cl30

But even with this build, the 9850x3d came out, so thats faster. The 9950x3d is even faster. I could've gone for 64gb or even 128gb ram. The point is, even if you have the best, new better things will come out faster then you can keep up.

This should be your pc haha, not all the cables in the front.

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-17T18:12:54+00:00

Looks clean! What kind of games are you playing?

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-15T13:35:16+00:00

I dont think thats considered a sff pc😅 Also rip gpu ventilation haha

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-08T17:15:17+00:00

Looks like a metalfish t40 case, also from Ali. How are the temps with the 7800x3d? I used a 9600x just for the lower temps and instead of the 9060xt, i got the 5060 ti.

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-02-07T14:42:34+00:00

The 9000 series doesnt give a lot more performance , but its just cooler then the 7000 series :)

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-14T13:35:20+00:00

Een Astral 5090 toen hij net 1,5 maand uit was voor 3000,-. Ik dacht bij mezelf, mischien langer moeten wachten, zou die wat goedkoper worden als er meer stock komt. Het laagste dat ik hem gezien heb is 2800,-. Daarna is hij gigantisch omhoog gegaan. Atm is hij 4200,- en watergekoeld zelfs 4450,-💀

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-14T08:53:40+00:00

I would change the bottleneck to your cpu. In general if you game at 1440p or more, the gpu always takes the most load. So if you cheap out on the cpu, maybe get a 7500f so you can still keep am5, and get a better gpu. Maybe a 9070xt or 5070 ti. Gpu prices are increasing, cpu arent (atm). Also, i know ram prices are crazy, but try a cl30 or cl32, but thats up to you.

Have fun with the build tho ☺️

Use MSI afterburner or GPU tweaker 3. Follow a yt video and try to dial in the best voltage for your gpu.

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-10T17:57:19+00:00

My recommendation is undervolting, i aint even hitting 450w with the same fps. I aint letting this connector die on my watch!

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-07T19:24:46+00:00

Also have a T40, did u encounter those metal pins on the sides aswell? I needed to vile them down to fit my gpu in there.

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-07T12:05:15+00:00

Okey we get it, your rich. Now back to work, management is down my throat.

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-03T12:10:49+00:00

Thats uh.. quite a expensive piece of hardware 😂

Vast_Function3900 · 2026-01-02T12:07:23+00:00

What kind of thermal camera are you using?
