    I have to thank you for this video and your channel. I pretty much copied the build you have here and am super satisfied with it. It's my first PC build ever after having bought various laptops and mini pc's to game on. But none of those actually matched the performance I wanted out of a gaming machine, so I decided to go all in. I feel great about the build because I more than likely won't have to worry about upgrades for a good while. I was thinking of switching CPU platforms to an AMD 7800X3D if I can find a buyer for the CPU/Mobo Combo. But if not, I still have a killer rig and it was a great experience following the video while building.

    You are one of the few PC builders who actually install high tier fans (though anything similar or better than the Arctic P12/P14 is already good for this case) to address the Q300L's 'hotbox' issue. Most reviews for the Q300L rely on the pathetic single stock fan that came with the case, with shockingly predictable results.

Also have two 120mm on the cpu cooler. And finally, crammed in a 6950xt as well as an HDD in that side panel with the cables. Cool case, I have it laying flat on its side on my desk.

    I would encourage folks to just swing for 2TB+ if they can afford it (or save up if at all possible). Especially in a micro-atx build where getting to components can be a bit of a pain and "add-ins" are quite difficult if not impossible.. Games these days are 100GB+, so you will be able to fill a 1TB drive super quick.

    Companies need to bring back Micro ATX. As far as I can remember, a lot of motherboards that came in prebuilts and what not are Micro ATX motherboards incased in either mATX cases or Mid Tower cases. With todays tech and everything being smaller (besides ITX) mATX should replace ATX just because it would save them some cost and fit all the bells and wistles appropiately.

    I tried DDR4 and 5 with the 13600kf, most games you won't notice the difference, one game saw DDR5 get a clear win and a handful of games favoured DDR4. DDR4 has lower latency than DDR5 although it does perform better with some computing tasks such as 7zip. Should be using a replacement CPU mounting solution, especially in such a small case, it will lower CPU temps by 10+°C. No point buying a "k" if you don't overclock it, most 13600k's will do 5.5GHz with lowered voltage and massive temperature drops, it's crazy not to, again especially in a small case. Love that little case, and it's basically a solid build, looks good, solid performance, solid video.

I see ddr4 3600cl16-18-4000cl16-18(OC) demolishing ddr5 under 6200cl32 but as soon as ddr5 passes that in speeds is when it finally starts winning or being even, next gen should bring out higher 1:1 ddr5 speeds and we will finally see it surpassing ddr4 in performance on average and overall!

    Есть такой корпус первой интерпретации, первое что я бы сделал сменил боковую панель на перфорированную, подумал как поставить водяное охлаждение 120 хотя бы на две секции, сузил пространство где hdd стоит тем самым сделал бы больше пространства в корпусе. Как корпус для Matx он мне больше всех нравится ничего лишнего просто ящик с перфорацией. Я больше предпочитаю теперь sff корпуса.

    Why do you chose CPU that can be overclock but not for the motherboard? Is there any reason for that?
