Full rebuild / downsizing plan
Posted by Moist_Librarian3282@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 11 comments
Hey guys, I want some feedback on a full rebuild / downsizing plan.
Right now I’m running a Lian Li O11D EVO RGB with 140mm Lian Li Infinity fans + 420mm AIO.
The build looks great, but I’ve been getting a bit annoyed with the case lately. It’s very big and heavy, and I’m also running into clearance issues with the 140mm fans. On top of that, I can’t properly close the top of the case because of the 420mm AIO.
Because of that, I’m planning to downsize to the Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini V2 and basically rebuild the system with a new fan setup.
Nothing is going to waste though, I’ll be reusing the current parts for a cousin’s build that I’ll be putting together for him.
parts list
* CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D (transferring)
* Motherboard: B850 AORUS Elite (transferring)
* RAM: 32GB Patriot Viper Venom (transferring)
* SSD: Samsung 990 Pro 2TB (transferring)
* GPU: RX 9070 XT Gigabyte Gaming (new)
* Case: Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini V2 (new)
* PSU: Seasonic Focus GX 850W ATX 3.1 (new)
* AIO: Jungle Leopard Pro Flow 360 (new)
* Fans: Jonsbo ZA (new)
If anyone has experience with this case:
Any airflow tips or things I should watch out for?
Best way to route and control Jonsbo ZA fans + RGB (hub vs motherboard)?

So does anyone have any ideas on the parts? Anything I should possibly change

I think Lian Li Edge is slightly better PSU, especially for a dual chamber case like that.
According to SPL tier list, seasonic kinda rushed the Seasonic Focus GX 850W ATX 3.1. - I'm not saying it's bad, I just think there are slightly better ones out there.

How much does the edge cost? The seasonic costs 90 bucks and I’m trying to get cables that are easy to route compared to my old NZXT PSU. Are the edge ones good?

Yea, I just checked all the PSUs for you in Sweden.
If you are going for a Black build - Corsair RMx 850W, is just slightly better A+ PSU, vs A-.
If White build your Seasonic Focus is the best, (because you guys don't sell a lot of models - like the Edge etc)
But anyways, it barely makes a difference.

I checked and it costs about 400kr more though, do you find that justifiable.

Yea airflow tips
What is the purpose of your PC? You can possible upgrade to 5080
Moist_Librarian3282@reddit (OP)
I don’t see a point in the 5080 it performes within 15% of the 9070xt and in my country it’s more than double the price.

Fair enough
for just gaming 100% - go AMD best value,
if you do productivity like video editing / encoding, rendering, or need Ray Tracing / DLSS. I would probably go nvidia.
