If you can live with the single m.2 slot and the lack of ax-WiFi, the asrock b550-itx/ac is definitely the best price/performance board you can get.
It’ll also be reasonably future proof (in case you get a new cpu) and as you mentioned, you can replace the WiFi with an Intel 200 or 210.
I recommend using a virtual machine the next time.
You can use the free virtualbox software + a free Windows VM from developer.microsoft.com for this.
This way the software is completely sandboxed and your regular operating system/data is not at risk.
Congrats on getting the first prototype together!
I don't want to be overly critical, but I still find the use of space a little inefficient.
Have you thought about moving from equally sized GPU / CPU compartments to increasing the size of the CPU one in favour of the GPU one (more like the...
The bigger the top fan the better! :D 140mm fans seem to be easy to source and move almost twice the air volume than 120mm fans at the same speed.
That'll be an interesting thing to test as well -- I remember from tests of the HG Osmi, that fully closed side panels with just bottom-to-top...
Welcome!
Very interesting form factor for the RCC-BIG, took me a while to understand that the ports are at the bottom (was only looking at the renders at first).
I like that it shares the Xbox Series X's efficient airflow design. Have you thought about using a single very large fan at the top...
@Otamot can you provide some more info on the FSP400-50FDB, especially around the noise level and fan curve?
(any change compared to the old 400w model?)
yes, see https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/fsp-modular-flex-atx-psu-computex-2019.10924/#post-157933
I hope it's reasonably quiet -- should be a great fit for this case and a medium-spec build.
Exciting case and exciting to see progress for flex cases and PSUs.
I assume the new FSP Flexguru 300w fits as well?

Great to see progress...if only the z370 ones were available here in Europe.
The slim version is exactly what I am looking for. Any more info on availability?
