No real purpose to this person thread other than to share my PC rethinking. There are are few of us on here that enjoy PC's so hopefully the read is enjoyable to some.
So having spent the last few years running an ATX case with RGB overload, I have decided to downsize and lose some of the lary colours with my PC.
It's only when you fully downsize that you really start to o appreciate the differences between ATX and ITX.
So my Phanteks eclipse P400s with Gigabyte Z170x gaming 7 motherboard is now a Fractal design core 500 with Asus B150i
All other major components have remained the same.
The only other change I have made is to go from water cooling back to air.
As for the Fractal case, the size is so small yet it still accommodates a full size PSU, upto 280mm radiator and 170mm tall air cooler.
It is a truly remarkable case for space.
As I continue to build the PC back up I will share my progress and as this is a photography forum here's a few images to get going with.
