I am currently planning a gaming mITX build and this is my first mITX.

Since I am a newbie on mITX I thought I could ask here and hopefully get some advice or guidance on how to make it work.


I am planning on building in a Fractal design Core 500 and the GPU will be a Zotac 1080 ti mini. Other than that it will be minimal with components for best airflow.


Setup so far:

Monitor: Asus PG278QR

Case: Fractal Design Core 500

GPU: Zotac 1080 ti mini

PSU: Corsair SF600 / Fractal Design Integra M 650W (?)

Memory: 2x 8gb 3000/3200 (?)

MB: ?

CPU: i7 8700

CPU cooler: ? (Cryorig c7?)

HDD: 1x 500gb SSD/m.2 (?)

Cooling: ?

?

?


What I am worried about or wonder, is how it will hold with airflow/cooling? Hard to find information about the 1080 ti mini and itx builds.

Will it be enough as it is, or do I need to mount more fans because of the GPU is not a blower, or even use some hybrid cooler for CPU?


Edit: I have no need to OC the system why I took the 8700 and not K which I read gets hotter. But obviously not against, if it wouldn't be a problem with the cooling.


Hopefully someone has some idea or advice of what would be needed to make it work.


Thanks in advance!
