1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,720
what's interesting about today's build is not just that it's among the fastest

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:10,639
that money can buy or that it's all AMD

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:14,000
CPU and GPU but also that it manages to

4
00:00:10,639 --> 00:00:17,279
use among the largest CPU coolers on the

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,400
market a full-sized atx motherboard and

6
00:00:17,279 --> 00:00:21,439
yet the whole case the whole packaging for

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,400
the case is only this big

8
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:32,559
meet the lien lee 011 dynamic mini the tiny

9
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:34,000
case that can fit almost anything inside

10
00:00:32,559 --> 00:00:38,239
it and this video is brought to you by ting

11
00:00:36,239 --> 00:00:41,760

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,760
the video or by checking out the link below

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:00,559
given then that the main focus of this build is in fact the case i'm just going

15
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:03,440
to go ahead and clear all this other stuff off the table

16
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,799
we've got an installation guide you might actually want to check out their

17
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:16,320
video installation guide as well because it can be a little bit tricky a whack

18
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:20,799
ton of brackets we've got one for extending the motherboard tray spacing

19
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:24,840
out the back panel pump mount or something more brackets

20
00:01:23,119 --> 00:01:29,200
that wasn't enough brackets already screws cable ties and all of

21
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:33,280
that good stuff as we'd expect from liam lee the case is made predominantly out

22
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,960
of aluminium so you can see got my little

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:42,400
magnet here doesn't stick and it being 2020 it uses tempered glass panels in

24
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,759
both the front and side of course that

25
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:48,320
doesn't mean that they've skimped on airflow was built in collaboration with

26
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,280
renowned overclocker der bauer and leanly advertises

27
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:56,079
adequate airflow and i tend to believe them

28
00:01:53,439 --> 00:02:00,399
they've got fan mounts over here they've got the ability to mount fans in the top

29
00:01:58,079 --> 00:02:04,960
in the bottom you can basically fill this thing with fans and or radiators

30
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:08,959
depending on how much other hardware you want to stuff inside it the biggest

31
00:02:07,119 --> 00:02:13,680
reconfigurable portion of the case and this is really innovative is the back

32
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:17,520
panel so you can see out of the box it's designed to take a full sized atx

33
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:22,400
motherboard that is freaking cool given the size of

34
00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:27,200
it i mean this the whole case is barely as tall as an atx motherboard but

35
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:30,239
of course that's going to come with some compromises if you do that you're not

36
00:02:28,959 --> 00:02:34,080
going to be able to easily fit a radiator in the top for example so if

37
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,920
you don't like that option you want to go up let's say m80x you can go ahead

38
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:43,920
pop these out pop a spacer in here move the whole thing down and now you've got

39
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:48,319
a ton of clearance at the top for going water cooling so cool look at that we've

40
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:52,160
got these ferrous metal strips on either side of these perforations that allows

41
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:55,280
you to mount a magnetic fan filter or if you really wanted to an RGB strip we

42
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:58,640
won't be using it but despite its diminutive size the case does allow

43
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:03,440
three and a half inch hard drives to be installed and what's more

44
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:06,800
they're actually accessible via this cover at the back this is one

45
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:10,319
of the really nice things about these cube style cases is once you get all the

46
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:16,000
panels off of them holy smokes do you ever have a ton of

47
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:20,480
room to work ah

48
00:03:18,879 --> 00:03:25,120
oh that's what happens you got a big nose it could get a little whacked there

49
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:29,280
when you drop some this is a motherboard tray expansion it's configured by

50
00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:32,959
default for a mini itx motherboard with the assumption that you're gonna fill it

51
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:38,239
with hardline water cooling hardware or something along those lines but we are

52
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:40,319
going for as many expansion slots as we

53
00:03:38,239 --> 00:03:44,959
can one of the nice things is that lee and lee considered not just the radiator

54
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,720
element of water cooling but also where to mount the pump and they included a

55
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:52,319
modular pump bracket a plus good job guys

56
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,519
now before we start installing the rest of the components i want to talk about

57
00:03:53,840 --> 00:04:00,640
the last thing that allows this case to be so compact without compromising

58
00:03:58,239 --> 00:04:07,920
expansion and that's the fact that it takes an sfxl power supply i

59
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,640
am a big fan of these power supplies

60
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:16,079
they are just as small in the x and y dimension as an sfx power supply but

61
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:20,959
they're slightly deeper which allows them to take a 120 millimeter fan now

62
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:24,320
it's still a slim 120 millimeter fan meaning it's not as quiet as a thicker

63
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,400
one because it just can't generate enough static pressure unless it spins

64
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:34,880
faster but it is a great compromise between sfx and atx and you

65
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:40,400
can get them in like crazy configurations now look at this this is

66
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:43,680
an 800 watt fully modular power supply

67
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:45,520
that's this skinny so that

68
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:50,240
is what keeps the thickness of the case down slash allows it to have nice tall

69
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,639
graphics cards like you could probably put an rtx 3090 in this thing

70
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,880
if you could find one enough case talk let's move on to the

71
00:04:56,639 --> 00:05:02,720
meat and potatoes you don't have to spend a ton of money to get a fully

72
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:06,960
featured x570 board that's going to allow you to get the most out of your

73
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:13,919
ryzen 5000 CPU this one here has four memory slots decent vrm for overclocking

74
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:16,479
usb 3.1 front panel support it's got two

75
00:05:13,919 --> 00:05:22,320
m.2 slots that both run at pci express gen 4 speeds and it even has support for

76
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:27,960
NVIDIA sli and crossfire for our CPU we've gone with the sensible but still

77
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:33,360
very high-end ryzen 9 5900x this is the only one in our entire

78
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:37,680
office so as soon as i'm done with this build i will be promptly taking it back

79
00:05:35,919 --> 00:05:42,320
apart and giving it back to Anthony so that he can use it on his GPU test bench

80
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:52,160
for RAM we've gone full bore this is 64 gigs of g skill trident z neo 3600

81
00:05:49,039 --> 00:05:53,440
megahertz cl 16 so that's about as high

82
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:58,960
as you're going to go before you start getting into pretty darn pricey dram

83
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:03,600
now as for whether you want to go four sticks or two sticks

84
00:06:01,919 --> 00:06:07,039
if you're going for absolute maximum speeds yeah

85
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:10,560
two sticks is what you want but this is more of a like

86
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:13,759
kitted out machine so we're going for capacity

87
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:18,840
now we can take care of m.2 storage of course we've gone with the ever fancy

88
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:24,080
rocket NVMe 4.0 this is a two terabyte model from

89
00:06:21,759 --> 00:06:26,960
sabrin's and it comes with a gigantic heatsink

90
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:31,199
the assembly process for this guy is pretty straightforward you just peel the

91
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:34,880
thermal tape at the bottom put this puppy right here this is if you

92
00:06:33,039 --> 00:06:38,319
have a double-sided drive like the one that we have so that is there's uh flash

93
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:43,759
chips on the other side got to keep those not cool but cool enough then

94
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:49,600
there's already a pre-applied thermal pad on the bottom of the heatsink

95
00:06:45,919 --> 00:06:51,919
so we just take that plonk it on top

96
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:55,759
then we pop the m.2 into the slot and

97
00:06:53,919 --> 00:07:00,000
it's a little tricky with that heat pipe in the way i installed it backwards

98
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,759
oh man see there's three heat pipes on this side

99
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:08,319
and two on this side so it's easier to screw it in now because i don't feel

100
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:11,840
like putting an os on the you know drive we're using for the build

101
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,880
i'm just going to chuck my test bench drive down here

102
00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:23,919
you never saw anything uh

103
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:27,599
it's gen 3 oh no boo hiss

104
00:07:23,919 --> 00:07:27,599
time to put a heat sink on this puppy

105
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:35,680
now you're probably thinking gee Linus an nhd15 chromax black

106
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:39,680
really in that compact case

107
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:45,440
and i would reply yes weren't you paying attention before

108
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:49,360
here's a really important tech tip if you have a heat sink that doesn't use

109
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:53,280
the original mounting bracket please please keep it safe you'll need

110
00:07:51,599 --> 00:07:57,199
it if you ever are made your motherboard or if you change out your cooler to one

111
00:07:55,039 --> 00:08:01,919
that does use it so we're only using the back plate which means i'm going to put

112
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,919
the rest of this into the box

113
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,879
hi oh that is some good cat but butthole b-roll there he's

114
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:13,919
happy that you're upset i put too much on i'm only installing one of the fans

115
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:15,680
here that is purely for looks no other

116
00:08:13,919 --> 00:08:20,000
reason you can also save a buck and get the s version of this heatsink that only

117
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:23,680
comes with the one fan now we just gotta plug in the fan

118
00:08:22,319 --> 00:08:28,479
now it's time for the moment of truth where we make sure that all this stuff

119
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:32,719
actually fits the standoffs for the motherboard expansion piece are

120
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:38,880
pre-installed so you don't even have to deal with that that is sweet

121
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:43,760
not bad at all okay while my intention was to use 120 millimeter fans the ones

122
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:48,320
Jake sent me appear to be the ones that were on the roof of the old office as

123
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:53,440
part of whole room water cooling so they're absolutely filthy

124
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:58,480
i guess we're going with 140 mils so we can fit two of them as intakes

125
00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:02,959
over here those will also dryer over the power supply and the hard drives and

126
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,920
then two of them and i guess i'll go intakes for those as well down here on

127
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:10,160
the bottom we do have two more mounts at the top

128
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:15,040
and these feet are super clever they've got another slot on them over here for

129
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:16,959
the fan filter to slide in i love it

130
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:21,519
oops there's definitely a little bit of trickiness getting at the cable

131
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:23,360
management at the back until

132
00:09:21,519 --> 00:09:28,320
hopefully this is it anyway we removed this two and a half inch

133
00:09:25,839 --> 00:09:31,920
drive mount there we go

134
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:37,279
it seems like the 24 pin on this silverstone power supply has a second

135
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:41,120
four pin coming off of it that looks to be like uh for the

136
00:09:39,839 --> 00:09:46,080
secondary CPU power connector

137
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:50,480
i guess i'll just try it um there's a separate eight pin that's gonna provide

138
00:09:47,839 --> 00:09:53,839
most of the power for the CPU anyway so i'm not worried that it's gonna break

139
00:09:51,839 --> 00:10:00,560
anything mostly it's just a really weird thing to do why

140
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,560
break the standard in that manner

141
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:09,120
okay this is where the build gets

142
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:14,399
disorganized i can't have the fan cables up here kind of bent a certain way and

143
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,600
get a 140 ml fan in here but we did get

144
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:21,519
it in now finally after much waiting and cable management

145
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:26,880
it's time for the graphics card we've gone with a 6800 xt kind of the second

146
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:31,680
down from the top of the line to match our CPU making this not a bang for the

147
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:36,240
buck machine by any stretch of the imagination but

148
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:40,560
an extreme performance machine without spending

149
00:10:37,519 --> 00:10:42,480
way too much for only a small additional

150
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:47,120
performance gain this is actually my first hands-on with

151
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:51,040
an asrock graphics card they became an AMD board partner i want to say a couple

152
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:57,760
of years ago my goodness this thing is an absolute

153
00:10:54,480 --> 00:11:01,519
monster isn't it HDMI 2.1 dual display

154
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:04,000
ports usb type c three cooling fans if

155
00:11:01,519 --> 00:11:09,760
it was me i might have just put a bigger cooling fan in the middle

156
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:12,560
rather than this kind of decorative

157
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:15,920
fascia piece here but it's not up to me and look at that they've actually got a

158
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,040
built-in switch so you can turn the leds on and off naturally we'll be leaving

159
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:23,519
the leds on because we want the full performance of this card and everyone

160
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:26,880
knows you need RGB for that pci express

161
00:11:23,519 --> 00:11:28,399
gen 4 here we go ladies and gentlemen

162
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:32,079
like they're not short enough for it to be tidy to plug them straight into the

163
00:11:30,079 --> 00:11:37,839
same card and they're not long enough to get them out of the way i'm not

164
00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:39,920
impressed with these cables we done

165
00:11:37,839 --> 00:11:45,360
i wasn't kidding when i said that back plate's not as strong as a

166
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,360
one-piece one

167
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:52,240
there we go you can peel off the plastic too if you'd like

168
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:57,920
that's the best part ow working on the setup here naturally

169
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:03,360
got my lttstore.com northern lights mousepad all right i'm finally in game

170
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:08,480
the system's not loud and all that time spent fan tuning cost me was

171
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:11,839
missing marquez's birthday didn't even send a tweet and now he's probably

172
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:18,320
sleeping it also cost me a lot of time you can see it is dark outside so

173
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:22,560
happy birthday marquez and i'm sorry my children for not spending any time with

174
00:12:20,079 --> 00:12:31,040
but hey the good news is i'm playing do maternal at 4k ultra details at 170 to

175
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:32,480
200 FPS on all AMD all right i want to

176
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,920
see what kind of temps we get and then we can call it here i'm just going to

177
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:40,000
beat all these baddies and leave this running in this room so that it'll heat

178
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:43,440
up or not heat up see how it goes

179
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:48,160
i'm back this has been running for a couple of hours now so let's go ahead

180
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:53,120
and tap out seriously hardware info wasn't running this whole time oh for

181
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,399
crying out loud 67 max

182
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:59,120
dang huh oh hot spot temperature 85 max oh

183
00:12:57,519 --> 00:13:03,040
that's right that's an AMD feature that allows them to take the temperature of

184
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:09,760
exactly the hottest point of the die and use that to throttle their turboing

185
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:12,480
behavior our GPU clock uh

186
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:16,240
minimum just shy of 2.1 gigahertz dang

187
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:20,639
as for the CPU we maxed out at 82.6 degrees and that's with the fan speeds

188
00:13:18,079 --> 00:13:25,680
locked so not allowing them to ramp up for maximum cooling all in all not a bad

189
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,880
little machine given how small it is and the fact that we stuck with air cooling

190
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:33,680
i'd be interested to see what we could do with this thing with a water loop now

191
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:36,880
the power supply doesn't ramp up too bad while it's

192
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:41,040
going ham freaking love it

193
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:46,959
