This is my 2nd build this year. Meant to be for my hotel when I travel to Taiwan for work, this build was supposed to be in a Velkase Velka 3. I ordered it in October, but it won't ship til December... So I got antsy and built in the In-Win Chopin as an intermediate step... This also gives me some time to shop around for an ITX sized GPU in the next few weeks (Black Friday/Cyber Monday). Still debating if I need to upgrade my CPU when going to the Velka 3 (was originally planning to go with a R5 3600), but this little build definitely works for now.
Parts:
The parts were somewhat recycled from my Dan A4 since I went to upgrade the cooler to an Asetek 645LT which meant I needed to jettison the RGB ram and L9i (obviously). But now that I think of it, I'll likely have to get another pair of low profile ram when I transplant into the Velka 3 (maybe upgrade the Dan A4 with 32 GB?!?).
Adding in some broken down pictures of the setup:
