I need help with parts that are compatible with a Silverstone Raven RVZ03
3 days ago
I'm planning on making another PC, a more compact one for LAN parties. I already have a decent main gaming PC, I want to make a more portable one. So I've been looking around for Small Form Factor PC's, basically cases as small as consoles. So I've made a list of parts for the build that I will try to build on my own since I've always had others build my PC for me. I used PC Part Picker Website to put the parts to a list and this Is what I choose... CPU : i5-6600K CPU Cooler : I don't know what to choose but I need help to choose something that can keep my CPU cooled with OC Motherboard : ASUS Strix Z270I RAM : G.Skill Ripjaw V 16GB 2x8GB 2400 Storage : I don't know what to use but I know the case can only fit 2 2.5'' SSD/HDD's Video Card : ASUS Strix 1080ti OC 8GB ( I am not sure If It can fit Inside or not any advice ) Case : Silverstone Raven RVZ03kow PSU : I don't know how much I need or how much Is enough or what can fit
I could really use some help on what CPU Cooler I should go with, If any Corsair Liquid Cooling Is possible or not. And I need help with knowing If my 1080ti will fit or not. I need help with choosing a PSU that fits In the case and something that's not overkill or just a bit Thanks for the help, and I can't wait for responses P.S Sorry for the long Info <3 More about : parts complete build
After much more research I saw that I can fit my 1080ti And I'm going to go with the Noctua NH-L9I or Cryorig C1 CR-C1A ( Im leaning for the Cryorig but not sure If any of them fit or not ) And I saw someone use this for the PSU EVGA 600 BQ, 80Plus BRONZE 600W, but If you guys no any Corsair PSU that fit In the case please tell me because I just don't wanna go with EVGA And I saw that In the back of the case or atleast one of the sides, there Is room for two 120mm fans. My question Is would the CorsairHD120's fit, If not can you guys recommend any RGB fan that fits there And can you guys recommend me a good M.2 Drive ? Thank you :heart:

1080ti makes sense if u wanna play at 4k.
So to make things clear, what do u wanna do exacatly with your rig, overclocking, 4k?
What games do u wanna play? And the budget?.

If u wanna go on lan etc. I would build a decent itx or matx rig.

I'd go for mATX as well, there's plenty of smaller chassis around.

If you're already going nuts with a 1080 Ti and stuff, then go all the way and get an i7 at least (that extra performance will come in handy, especially on LAN with background stuff).

PSU wise i'd suggest getting something better, i.e. EVGA G2 or G3 (won't fit into your listed chassis though).

Cooler wise you could look at the Noctua L12 - rather easy to fit in smaller cubes.

Storage, 400+ GB SSD for multiple games, maybe some basic 2,5" HDD for storage? (mATX cubes often got space for 1-2 3,5" drives though - cheaper)



My 2 cents, from my last LAN build.

Edit:
the L12 would actually fit in your wanted chassis height wise, and still has enough room for a 2nd slim fan on top.

Here that's basically my rig, matx, nice small case and enough space for a gtx ti or whatever.

And case fan's, well I use the bequiet silent wings series.
But corsair or noctua will work fine too.

Alternative if u wanna go with i7 and 1080ti

*Use the ssd for os, apps and few games that benefits from the ssd.

When building SFF pc the most challening part is assembly and cables.
RVZ03 has a plenty of room to install wide range of components but it may require a little bit bigger wallet if want to do it easy way... (My case is Node202)

-Motherboard with M.2 ssd support + M.2 drive.
-Under gpu 120x120x12mm fans (Scythe Slip Stream)
-Full modular SFF psu (Corsair, Silverstone) 600W.
-ATX size psu fits also. Recommended length 140mm.
-Ryzen 7 1700 has a 65W TDP vs i5 6600K 95W.... so Ryzen !
-Noctua NH-L9I cpu cooler is good. Changing to 25mm thick Noctua PWM fan it is even better.
-AM4 cpu cooler is a different model...
-Noctua NH-L9x65 (SE-AM4) is a little bigger cooler (+optional 25mm fan)
-Zotac GTX 1080Ti MINI (...there is a new video on BitWit channel...)
-Plenty of cable ties.

Basically only compromise is to use only M.2 storage. 500GB should be enough.

RVZ03 is good "console pc" case in its class but in my opinion Thermaltake Core V1 is perhaps the best m-itx case to build. It is little bigger and cube form.

I will use Corsair's VS650 since It can fit ATX PSU's
And I will be using the ASUS ROG Z270i
And for the ram I'll be going with Gskill Ripjaw 16GB (2X8GB) 2400Mhz
And the GPU I will use my ASUS ROG 1080 OC
But I need help picking one NVME or SSD drive for OS and one 1TB for games (Both have to be 2.5'' drives)
And I need to know If I can use the Corsair HD120's or the SP120's for the 120mm extra fan spaces.
Thank you :heart: :smile:

I've done even more research I've got my Storage drives I just need to make sure If the Corsair VS650 fits In the case or not

According to silverstong for the z03
"Mini-ITX motherboard & ATX PSU compatible for wide array of building possibilities"

So It's not a possibility but It's not a %100 garanteed .-.
