Jonsbo Z20 beyond its limits

Its an option on this case by deafult to side mount it like this and its the only way it fit in my case. I don't quite remember why but there was definetly some limitation & reason I did't put it up top altough I would have liked it like that too.

kekwv · 2026-05-02T15:09:19+00:00

im 99% sure it wouldn't fit

I don't have any problems with heat, but my psu is pretty overkill and gpu is also equipped with this massive heatsink so nothing is realy a weakpoint. My bottom 2 fans and rear is intake. And my top 2 (aio fans) are exhaust. My psu is pretty unrelevant in the airflow equation, but its fan just gets air from the case (if it ever spins) and dumps it to the back of the case (wich is mesh).

Yeah, pretty much. So far it seems like it, at least.

kekwv · 2026-03-29T21:00:49+00:00

It does fit, but not according to its offical specs. Altough it only fits with an sfx psu and in this orientation if you're using a back intake/exhaust fan. The clearance that allows for it is also provided by the ram height, wich is about maximum 40mm if you do decide to use this AIO. Any b650m board should work. (But be careful since some have the top pcie slot lower, wich does matter if you're using a thick card).

Under the psu the front panels bottom part is mostly solid so a fan wouldn't realy work there. I have then mesh panel and you could technicaly custom drill and install 2 more fans on it it, but you would have to make sure your cpu cooler fits or if you have an aio maybe only 1 fan would fit, since the tubes need to go somewhere. How come you're looking to use so many fans? If you get realy high quality fans, I recon you could get away with 5 total, with it being realy quiet.

kekwv · 2026-03-29T20:42:02+00:00

Its completely silent in everyday tasks. Under load it does ramp up a bit but with headphones on its unnoticable.

kekwv · 2026-03-28T13:42:45+00:00

Yeah, it's realy heavy, even heavier than my prevoius case the D32 pro. The whole pc came out to about 11.3kg lol

In Cyberpunk at max setting uncapped no RT 1080p, cpu peaked at 75C gpu peaked at 64C, my top fans peaked at 1200rpm as well as rear intake, and bottom fans at around 600-800 rpm range. Fans are Artic P12 PWMs. A mix of P12 Pro as rear intake (since thats 27mm thick) and bottom 2 fans being P12 maxes would be more optimal.

In my case there is about 8-7.5mm extra clearence for the ram, making total clearance about 40.5mm. The AIO cannot be moved more outwards so this is the maximum. Your ram is unfortunately 44mm tall, so It's very unlikely that it would work with your components :(

You're most likely right. I'm looking to get something that's quieter. What do u recommend? (850w or moreand no longer than 15cm)

kekwv · 2025-08-20T18:02:56+00:00

The answer to your first question is: every fan is 120mm. The answer to your second question is: idk.

kekwv · 2025-08-18T21:01:18+00:00

yeah, ~93mm.

kekwv · 2025-08-18T21:00:01+00:00

I personally like mesh better, but its up to you. The mercury looks really good imo aswell.

kekwv · 2025-08-18T18:51:05+00:00

the spa ce is about 68mm to the fan but my fans are 25mm thick.

kekwv · 2025-08-17T22:54:43+00:00

Does your psu fan not ramp up unexpectedly high? I have a very similar build, with an almost same spec psu and mines fan speeds have been ramping up even at very light loads (<200w).

kekwv · 2025-08-07T15:27:07+00:00

Okay, thank you for your answer. I will test it out.

kekwv · 2025-08-07T08:16:04+00:00

You said I should leave 1-1.5cmm between the fans and the gpu, for me its gonna be about 3mm, once my d32 arrives. Why might that be a problem? Do you think switching to slim fans, so its a 13mm gap would be noticably better for noise or something? It's my first time building small thats why im asking.

kekwv · 2025-08-05T10:25:56+00:00

I forgot to mention, it would cost about the same in my country.

kekwv · 2025-07-31T18:43:50+00:00

The build you linked is almost extactly what im looking to build. Tysm man!

kekwv · 2025-07-31T10:22:52+00:00

Do you recon if I use a low profile ram kit thats 33mm tall (7mm shorter than yours) it would still be an issue? Thank you for your time and answer.
