New ITX equipment
-
Hello everyone, now that Christmas is approaching I am going to build a desktop. It's not something that has to be followed to the letter but I wanted to build a team to play the latest games comfortably in the smallest space possible, since I would like the tower to be easy to move and transport.
I fell in love with this case: Bitfenix Prodigy
and this is the configuration I had in mind:Custom budget. PcComponentes.com
For graphics, for the moment I will keep using the 5850 that I have and later on I will look for a mid-range one.
And so, I look forward to your corrections and opinions, and to see what we can come up with together. Regards and thanks in advance.

Hello,
With the 5850 I'm not sure if you'll be able to play the latest games "comfortably", since you're going to build a cool team you could invest in it
The box is nice, although they have shamelessly copied the design of the mac pro XD. If you like more sober designs there are some Lian Li that are also cool (look at the photo)
You will have to make sure that the GPU, which will be the largest component of your system, fits without problems and you don't have ventilation problems or a lot of cable mess in such a small space...
I see the rest of the components fine, there will always be someone around here who prefers one power supply over another or another motherboard :ugly: see what the forum members advise you

Thanks for the reply Kalevala, the 5850 would be the compromise solution until I buy another graphics card, since it's the one I've been playing with so far and for now it's holding up.
I really like that Lian-Li, but I've been recommended to switch to an ATX with a mid-tower, and after consulting with my pillow, I think I would change the motherboard to an Asrock Extreme 4 and the power supply to a Corsair but 650W.
If you like the changes and you see the other components as good, I just need to find the smallest case where I can fit all that jajaja!
Regards.

at the time there was a lian-li of the type that kalevala has put but a little bigger for atx plates, take a look at the website
-
I've been looking at the Lian-Li cases and they do have some pretty cool ones but the prices are a bit out of what I wanted to spend on a case.
What do you think of this Corsair? Corsair 200R Compact
-
Have you looked at xtremmedia? I've been looking around for cases lately and there's more variety and better prices than pcc.On the other hand, I avoid the asrock brand, they have improved, but the vrms they use are of worse quality than the rest from what I have read, not to mention some other minor issues. Is there any Gigabyte/MSI/Asus that convinces you?
For cases, look at the Cooler Master SIlencio 550, sober design and very quiet...
-
Well I didn't know this page to be honest, they do have quite a variety.
Well to be honest I haven't heard anything but good things about Asrock lately and about the Extreme even more, that's why I opted for it.
As for the silence, it's very good, I like the sober lines, it's a bit taller than the Corsair but it's not bad at all.
Thanks for your comment Darikson.

No problem, I've been looking for a long time because I want my next tower to be completely to my liking, and I think we have similar tastes in terms of sobriety...
-
I think that around here we are all pretty fans of Asrock. A few months ago I bought that same Xtreme4 and I couldn't be happier with it and with the equipment I assembled in general. In the end they are all more or less the same and only the motherboard will let you down if you have bad luck.
Both the Corsair and the Cooler Master that you recommend seem like good cases, get the one you like the most and go play
Greetings!

Well, thank you very much for your responses and guidance, in the end I will probably choose the Corsair case, when I have it assembled I will tell you how everything goes and I will upload some pictures.
Best regards.
