Hello, Im looking into building a 2024 sffpc. I was excited at first on the possabilities, but then got jaded on choosing components that would work together. Which is why Im here! hopefully I can get more enlightened on some good choices to make.
I already have an RTX4070 to put in. I really like the Asus Tuf gaming motherboards but Ive only used the ATX size one and it lasted a long time. are the smaller ones just as robust? im unsure of the new formats / sizes as well. Im looking at heavy sims using lots of GPU, CPU and RAM in combination so I guess airflow and cooling is very pertinent. should I just give up the idea of sffpc and go mid size to be safe?
CPU I would like an i9-4900 and the case, fractal design nano torrent looks interesting but then review Ive read are saying cable manegement is not so great. Im no master builder, only built a couple of PCs and 1 sffpc inside a Fractal Node 804 but that was back in 2013...
any good advice on a case thats is sff, best of class cooling / airflow and easy to build with as im not that bothered by case brand only looking to get i94900 + RTX4070 sff for SideFX houdini 3D workstation DDR5 96GB ram (2x48) and also Unreal Engine technical Artist type work on it.
