So I'm looking to build a very small machine for school. Does anyone have any advice when it comes to cooling? Ideally my compy would be very small <4.0L

The best advice I could give is to know your use cases, your comfort with tuning the hardware of the machine in the BIOS and operating system for a balance of performance and thermal load, and what you could compromise on if anything. Barring a budget, every build starts with those questions.
