Hello!
I would like to get your thoughts on cooling needs for the following:
Dan A4-SFX4.1 case *or* (if I can take someone's spot..this would be my preferred plan..is that even a possibility?) Sentry 2.0
i9-9900 (65W tdp, non-k)
Asrock Z390 phantom ITX board
2x 16GB 3200Mhz sticks, probably G.Skill TridentZ cl 4's, ~45mm tall
Zotac rtx 2080 Super AMP (already have - it's an open, dual fan model, not a blower type)
(1) 960MB Adata M.2 ssd
(2) Samsung 500GB ssd's
Corsair SF600 platinum SFX psu
I'll also have an RME audio interface connected via USB 2, Ableton Push 2 midi controller via USB 2, and a Valve Index via USB 3
1 - do I need to undervolt?
2 - Is there an easy cooling solution for either case?
Dan a4: Noctua l9i with 10mm spacer, or Blackridge cooler (with some different fan? I was confused by the huge thread on this)
- is there any memory height consideration with the Blackridge?
3 - Is PSU overkill? I am looking for low noise
4 - do I need/would you recommend any additional case fans?
Any other suggestions? This is going on a boat where space is at a premium, and I'll probably even use remote desktop from a laptop so I don't have to bring along a monitor.. Therefore, if it is at all possible, I'd like to get a Sentry 2 case, but it seems like if you didn't get in early, it would be many months waiting.. It would be preferable to have this put together in October.
Thank you for your help!
