PPL - Performance Per Liter, do you SFF?

Just came across this and quickly benchmarked my current build - as-is right now, with no optimisation or overclocking whatsoever (running rock stable), incl overhead for remote access as running headless...

Nice score. I have been waiting for someone with a Skyreach to post their scores, figured it would do really well. Especially with a brickless build.
What power supplies are you running? I see the HDPlex 160, but that wouldn't do for the 1080 too?
I haven't read the thread, but I imagine the highest possible PPL would either be the new Deskmini without support for 2.5" drives with an 8700K and a 1080, a CustomMod Mini with a 7980XE and a 1080, or an S4M with a 7980XE and a 1080 Ti. Probably the CustomMod, if you can get one of the 3.2L versions that fits a 1080.
I use a MeanWell 200/12V for the 1080 (the long silver thing below the main board), and the HDPLEX 160 to power board and cpu - with a load switch between them. For details see my build log here
I was assuming that with a thinner case, it would also be wider. I.e. two cases with the same volume, one is almost a cube, the other a long thin rectangle.
Regardless, your point about surface area of the heatsink being tied more closely to the volume than the external surface area of the bounding box is a good one. Reasonably straightforward once you consider the density of the cooling fins.
Yeah, I had a feeling that score was a way too high, but I didn't have a point of reference to work with. I'll see if I can get a bootcamp instance rocking and try it again the right way.
@Duality92 LMK if I missed anything, I'm tired as hell right now so something may have slipped by me

Nice job on the 3 million. You are right that 7980xe is brutal, made the score on my 8700k look mighty small.
It really is amazing, and the 11L case was just big enough to cool it while still giving a s.all enough volume to be competitive.Nice job on the 3 million. You are right that 7980xe is brutal, made the score on my 8700k look mighty small.
I'm percolating an idea right now, an s4m with my cpu + gtx 1180 mini, with one internal hdplex 400w and a second sitting outside, of maybe I can use an additional, smaller brick internally for the cpu. I can re-use my cooler and the GPU score would be higher but the volume would be way smaller, to the point where I think a 6 million point score is feasible
Really good actually, the dynatron T318 with that a12x15 runs around 80c on aida 64 with stock speeds
- Picture of actual PC
My Battlestation - Volume calculated with exterior dimensions of case WITH power brick(s)
Volume of NUC is 5.5 * 8.5 * 1.5 Cubic Inches = 1.14 Liters
Volume of Power Brick is 3.8125 * 7.75 * 1 Cubic Inches = 0.48 Liters - CPU-Z / GPU-Z screenshots obligatory, see post #6
CPU-Z / GPU-Z - CPU-Z must be run on "Benchmark" and validation link saved with your username
2852 Multi-thread performance - GPU-Z must be on the first tab when doing screenshot with a dedicated GPU
CPU-Z / GPU-Z - Heaven Benchmark on "Extreme" preset
1426 Heaven Benchmark on Extreme Preset - PPL is calculated by (CPU-Z Multi Thread score * Heaven Benchmark score)/Build Volume rounded to nearest thousand.
(2852 * 1426) / (1.14 + 0.48) = 2510464 Performance Per Liter Score

Nice one @n4ru, amazing what you can do when you have a 1 1/2 liter case.
If I grab a GTX 1080 ITX and a meanwell power supply, I can score ~4.1m (after accounting for an extra 1.09 liters in volume and a 3200 GTX 1080 score after overclocking and docking some for running it via M.2) which would be an easy first place. Though at this point, I think a smaller NUC + an eGPU with a brick would score even higher.

From short time 1st to 5th
But congrats to all new entries and scores! No way I could beat that ^^

I was 1st for a minute, now I will be 7th. Excuse me while I go cry in the corner.
