Hello everyone! I stumbled upon this forum a few days ago and got really hooked into sff builds.
At the moment I am using an itx build, but it is in no way a sff volume-wise. My pc spec is as follows :
I7-7700k w/ Noctua u9s
B250i strix
16 GB DDR4 Team Elite Plus 2400Mhz
WD Green m.2 Sata ssd (front)
Intel 600p Nvme ssd (back)
MSI GTX 970 gaming 4G
Seasonic M12ii 520w
Thermaltake suppressor f1
As I have a small desk, my pc took about 1/5 of my desk space and I am really interested in downsizing my pc. I hope to replace my case with the a4-sfx or the s4mini. I'm in no rush to replace the case, but it will be nice to know which gpu to get once the next gen nvidia are released, so that I can build my pc with the case in mind.
Thermal wise, which one offers a better overall ventilation? Should I be concerned with placing an m.2 behind my motherboard?
Also does using a pcie riser introduce a significant latency? Will I be at a disadvantage when playing fast paced fps games?
Cheers
