Part 2 of this video here! th-cam.com/video/-7x1LI5kOS4/w-d-xo.html
Im just waiting for my V6 as a replacement of my Cerberus
I hope GPU manufaturers start making taller but shorter cards for SFF builds.
When are you gonna get your hands on a T1?
Comrade Supreme
The only way I can think of is submerge the whole thing in mineral oil
Can u make a video about how to swap the PSU fan of this build soon .
"This is how you attach a case to your ITX motherboard."
How about "This is when you install the PSU before you install the motherboard" Haha 😊
"I'm no cable management ninja" *has been known to completely de-pin, re-pin, sleeve, and create full custom cables for builds*
Thermodude *Because* he’s not a cable management ninja. Cable management ninjas don’t need custom cables to get a clean look.
@@Athasin shut the fuck up
you shut the fuck up
when there's a will, there's a way (for everyone)
Maybe he’s a cable management hokage
I would like to see a video where you swap the fan of the PSU to see if you can get it quieter.
@Man Dangerous? :D Danger is risk!
It needs to spin that fast to provide the needed airflow. Swapping out a more silent fan would address the issue of noise but might introduce another problem.
@@gchyll2 A high quality fan can create the same airflow with less noise tho.
@@gchyll2 That's not really necessarily true; there are countless examples of higher quality fans being able to supply MORE airflow, at LESS noise, than cheapo OEM fans.
@@gchyll2 it's a cheap industrial fan that's just there to do the job. My guess is one of Noctua's 40mm fans could do magic here and potentially even have higher airflow.
WOW! Just wow! Please make a follow up vid.
1. Swap the 40mm fan
2. Sleeve the ketchup and mustard cables
It probably just needs a low noise adapter inline for the PSU fan
@@oliverturner128 nah mostly a higher quality one. There are 40mm models from Noctua. The existing fan is really not made to be quiet.
Might still be loud with noctua... Those PSU's are typically found in rackmount server cases where low noise isn't a factor and the controller just pumps a load of power to the fan. But I think you're probably both right, low noise adapter and a better fan will be the best bet.
... And 100% sleeve the cables! 👍
@@techie2643 he could also hook the fan up to the motherboard and control it that way.
I would just use a can of black Plastidip to colour the cables and the visible part of the psu
Would you consider doing a follow-up video/tutorial on swapping the fan with the Noctua 40mm and comparing noise results?
I'm really impressed with Velkase product line. They have amazing innovative designs at affordable pricing. My next build will be in one of there chassis for sure.
Wow and the case is relatively affordable.
I might even choose it for my next build.
L A That noise though, it’s like a first gen PS4 during load, could be mistaken for an airplane.
L A
Why you need low power?
@@Athasin Can be fixed by changing the fan in the psu. Will be like 10x quiter with a noctua
I would buy it but i dont have balls to swap the fan in a psu
@@kot3405 You could probably pay a professional to do it, or buy a more expensive psu. It'll cost more but it would be quieter
Love the channel bro.. keep em coming. Would you be able to run some benchmarks ? Thermals /noise while gaming? I wonder how a 3700x or maybe a 9700f in there.
My new favorite channel. Soothing voice, super smart tips, yet easy to understand. Really nice videos, super professional. And I don’t even own a single PC!
slick and stunning video as always ! the case is to drool for
can you make a quick video with the noctua fan on that psu ??
really excited for the Velka 5 review, thanks!
Great review, hope you got a sliger sm580 to review.
What monitor is that?
Really need a follow up video on replacing the 40mm fan. I spent 2 hours trying to pry my flex psi open only to be left with a bloodied and unopened psu.
Glad to see another boutique SFF case review! I suppose the SFF community has chosen you as one of its main touchpoints to the wider world. I've seen the Velka brand around but haven't looked too closely. As my needs and tastes shift, the lengths I'm willing to go to have been changing as well. Looking forward to the next parts
Finally a case I can afford! Thank you, my man, thank you! You just earned a sub ;)
Yes! I've been really excited about this case, I've been hoping for a back-to-back sub-4L case since the Hutzy XS project was abandoned. The Velka cases are very niche, the fact OptimumTech reviewed this one only solidifies its SFF credentials further. Nowhere else can you get high quality detailed reviews of hardcore SFF enthusiast stuff like this.
only if you like hoover sound in your room
@@montazownianr1 if you're willing to fan swap it won't be so lpud
Nice to see new companies making beautiful and sensible products!
Nice to see somebody producing this, six months ago I had to design this exact case but myself just to have this small of a footprint. Any mini ITX power supply is going to be loud, noctua 40 mil fan is the only option.
Finally! I know what case I want for my SFF build! This is amazing
Looking forward to the Velka 5 review!
This case looks amazing it's everything I have been looking for! I just wish I found this case before I bought a evolv shift case, I was going to order the mesh side panels for it when they were available but I preordered this case instead and will sell the parts I don't reuse in this new case.
Lol! "There was one big problem..."
Nice video.
Please make another one swapping the power supply fan, and with custom cable sleeves.
Wow Finally someone made a small case that is not overpriced. Thank you Velka, of course when i go to look they are out of stock. Thank you for the Video Optimum Tech.
can try preorder the next wave of cases, I just managed to secure a Velka 5
@@carlzhuo24 I preordered a Velka 3, and then I got a PSU from geeekstore com shop custom-flex-atx-modular-psu, but the PSU is a 170mm long and I know i will have to cut chop rebuild on the Velk. The PSU will com with colored wires and 300mm long cables.
Great video what is the exact build? What motherboard, CPU are you using? I do like the case and want to keep it as budget as possible but will upgrade in time
Awesome to be able to pack so much power into such a small space.
You should check out the Lone Industries L5. It can only fit low profile graphics cards, however it allows for 70mm high cpu coolers and its only 4.6 liters.
oh my god, ive been waiting for a case like this forever! and its only 120? OH MY
great review,quick question isn't the HD-plex a fanless power supply which would mean zero noise output...???
Just pre ordered it in gray 😮😮 nervous but excited!
Hey optimumtech do you have a custom keyboard? Or just use off the shelf keyboards?
do more itx cases. love your itx case reviews :)
He does only itx and rarely matx lol
@@tejaspadhye i know, been a subscriber since 20k. i mean cover more itx case in market. not proporsion.
@@bpgpw gotya
Cool video. What’s the noise level like with specs like this and a case that compact?
Really liked your video!
What is the final weight of the build?
Would it be possible to fit a Hdplex 400W combo in there?
There are several options to fit both a 2070 and the Hdplex 400AC inside the Skyreach 4 mini. Zotac, Inno3D and Galax are some 2070 that fit with no real mods needed.
This case seems awesome! I might end up buying it, but could you please make a video swapping the fan first? :)
Even with the noise, this is amazing!
WHOA! this case is pretty amazing, from looks to functionality. i've been extremely happy with my metis case, but the form factor of this case is on another level.
since i already have the single fan 1070 (i used to run dual fan 470 initially in the metis), this would be an ideal case for me. turns out that overclocking isn't so important to me, so ditching the aio on my ryzen wouldn't be a problem and all i would need to get would be low powered flex psu and low profile cpu cooler.
Damn you! Now I wanna build another htpc for no reason! Great video btw ;)
Please do a follow up to this with a PSU fan swap. I would love to see how much it improves the sound levels.
Love it bro! I am going to build a similar pc
Fell in love, awesome build
Nice build. So clean... go with a custom cabling with a DC/DC psu and external brick!
Are you kidding me?!?
I just finished building my own velka 3 this day! Great to see it getting some spotlight!
how are the fan noises?
@@0AcE013 fantastic. Almost completly silent when idle. Gentle fan noise from gpu when gaming
Noctua fans on cpu,gpu and psu. 2 Velkase 80mm fans on top exhaust on absolute slowest rpm possible to help the natural convection dissipate the heat.
@@andreasksasse that's great, what are your specs if i may ask?
@@0AcE013 i have a old cpu/mobo at the moment. Will upgrade to i5 9400 or something similar in the future.
Current specs:
I5 3470
8gb ram
Gtx 1060 6gb
256 gb ssd
350w gold psu
@@andreasksasse awesome setup
do you think a simillar setup but with a ryzen5 3600 and 16 gb ram would work with the 350w psu?
i'm attempting my first build and i want to get that case but i have no clue how to work out wattage
Can you do a review on the InWin 301C?
I found it and it looks really good...
Also, I'm pretty sure it's one of the cheaper cases with a USB 3.1 GEN 2 USB C port..
I'd love to see a follow up video where you replace that 40mm power supply fan with a NF A4-x10 FLX. As well as undervolting the cpu and gpu. Interested to see how finely tuned you can get this little pc!
This is super awesome!! I was thinking to get the asrock deskmini with ryzen apu
Fun fact : "Velká" means big in feminine form in slovak and czech language
Velka means "debt" in Finnish
Avaruusrangeri well I mean that is what sff hobby gives you
Thanks for the review on quite a cool case. The S4 mini doesn't work as well in tower mode without feet.
I've ordered the Velka 3, the PSU you linked (seems to be the best 400W Flex ATX unit out there) and an NF-40x10 FLX fan for a swap-out.
I'll get a 5mm shroud 3D printed to add to the fan.
I'll be using mine for a portable workstation. Looking forward to putting it together.
Hi! Any luck with fan replacement?
@@SergeyMaslatsov I have the PSU and the Noctua fan, but haven't done any testing yet. (The rest of the system is still 6 odd weeks away).
I haven't noticed until now but your monitor looks so much better with that stand. Do you mind telling us what stand you swapped it out with?
PS: I couldn't control myself after watching your SFF videos. I ended up parting out my Fractal Design Define R6 Blackout and purchasing an ash batch 3 Ghost S1 and a silver NCase M1 V6. Waiting on the NCase tempered glass option. I'll be attempting hackintosh on the NCase.
Hmm that's odd I don't have this issue with the loud PSU and it's the same one that you have... Have you tried undervolting the gpu/cpu to reduce the PSU load ?
Now that's sff! Also, didn't Silverstone have the SF350G flex psu that supposedly quiet?
If possible in future videos maybe, please include links to every component used. Ex: motherboard, ram, cpu, ect. Would help very much. I know how to build them and most of the components, but I have a hard time understanding what cpus work with what motherboards and if the ram is compatible. Great video, and have a great day!
I like this guys channel, hes one of the few people on youtube that builds itx pc's that uses that z390 asrock board everyone else uses the asus board lol
can you do a fan swap on the psu and show the difference?
Looking forward your review the Velka 5!
Damn, nice. I have some extra hardware to build a Velka5. I am stoked.
Nice, was looking for some portable hardware. Subscribed.
I have this case in silver. I’m using the enhance 600 watt PSU and it is so much quieter than the 500 watt FSP PSU I was using. Worth a look for sure.
My biggest complaint in this case is how thin a lot of the metal is, especially the motherboard tray. I ended up covering mine in electrical tape because I was worried about it flexing and shorting the motherboard. Still, I love this tiny case and it is hard to beat for the price.
Awesome ENP-7660B
I used the 40mm Noctua fans for my 3d printer fans. They got crazy loud, so I swapped them and the Noctua ones are dead quiet. Definitely worth it!
The best channel for ITX enthusiasts!
Is that monitor the Alienware 25? I really like the alternative stand in this video what is it?
I want Velka 5 review, looks to be soo great case! Full length gpu+ enough room for NH-L9i or Cryorig C7 + sfx psu = win! You could even cramp in some RGB (C7 with RGB fan + some strips)
Hey there, great video as usual. Where did you get those supports where your mouse cable is passing through ? Greetings from France.
Search for "mouse bungee" on Amazon, there are a few options. I know some friends that just use a piece of tape or something similar to hold the cable instead though :p
mouse bungee
@@user-hj3vq2bc2g Thank you m8.
@@hxpers Thank you, found it and ordered it ^^
soooo why cant an actual case manufacturer sell these, instead of these small startups that are overpriced or sold out
Because these require a lot of trial and error as well as lots of design time, most people don't want an itx pc, so most case makers build atx cases
ITX builds are LOVE!
What about NUC 9 case with a NUC 12 motherboard,12400, and a unique 4080 covered by VEGA 3060 ti COOLER? Yes, we have made that happen. It's crazy. 4080 drops from 335 watts to 240 watts, timespy score drops from 28000 to 26400. And of course, a replacement of nuc 12 CPU fan is also important, I recommend Lenovo 360 ultra cpu turbofan.
Could you please post a link to all the parts in a list? I was thinking of making something similar and wanted easy access to parts i already knew worked
Hi, does this pc work alright as a hackingtosh? I love how compact it is. Thanks
I'd like to see a followup where you try swapping out that PSU fan!
What was your GPU wattage consumption during testing? I’m super curious about actual power draw of these 2070 mini cards.
I will definitely consider this case for my next built!! Maybe be able to stick a SATA SSD above the GPU??
I would love to see a re visit to this where he de solders all the un necessary cables
dude your mini itx pc builds are superb. I subscribe my man. 👍💯
I want a mini itx pc now😎
I built something similar years ago in a Silverstone SG05-LITE case not much bigger (10.8 liters) for just $40 (doesn't require a riser cable, and can be used on its side with some feet to allow air to the gfx card). Used a 500w 80Plus Gold Silverstone SFX-L PSU, and a it fits a full-sized gfx card - mine is actually 2.5 slot and still fits, and it's got such a beefy 2-fan cooler that the fans almost never come on and are quiet when they do. Used an AIO water loop instead of trying to fit an air cooler in and the rad just sits at the front drawn in air that help cool other components even as it dissipates the CPU heat. Single fan gfx cards are going to be noisier, as will a smaller fan on a standard CPU cooler instead of a large one on a radiator (which will also probably not need to run as fast).
I'm building something similar now, also 4l. Also swapped the little fan to noctua and it's quite as it can be :)
Is that Alienware AW2518H ? if yes where did u got those stand from?
I’ve been eyeing this case for a few weeks now. Hoping to use it for my next build. Also hoping to use the upcoming Gigabyte 2070 Super mini, though I’ll probably swap the fan with a Noctua because I’m sure it’ll be a jet engine. I’ll also swap the PSU fan probably with the Delta AFB0412HB-F00 (the Noctua 40x10mm fan has almost 1/4 the static pressure of it). I may also clip the unneeded cables and heat shrink the ends. I’ll also need to use the Enhance 600W Plat PSU because it’s one of the few with more than just an 8-pin plug for GPU power.
Mr. Optimum, What are your thoughts for this unit paired with a Ryzen option? 3600 on an ITX? See any reason it wouldn't work from your personal perspective? Thank you kindly.
How could I build this for myself? Is there a shopping list I could get please? I wouldn't mind an external battery if it keeps the noise down, please, I am really clueless.
Always wanted to k ow where you got your white glossy tabletop?
1U PSU are meant to be used mostly inside servers, this is why they are pretty noisy, but as you said if you replace the FAN with a Noctua you will be just fine.
And btw, this is one of the most impressive like/dislike ratio I've ever seen [1.1K/6 atm], congratulations, you are doing a relly good job ;)
Would the HDPlex 400w power supply fit in place of the Flex?
I love this channel, I like this guy :)
This is it.. This is what I am looking for. So minimal, so chic, so simple, so small... but perfect...!
I would like to ask if the riser needs to be the Li-Heat or you could try other riser?
6:49 I really thought it was gonna turn on
Awesome case!!! plesas if you can make the psu fan swap.
0:09 introducing iphone 11
Screaming!!!!!
wauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuw!
Apple did showed it same way in an hallway
Still love my Coolermaster Elite 130; Thermaltake Water 2.0 Pro (Push/Pull out the front) Slim Bru-Ray DVD setup.
it's so cute, I pre ordered the Velka 5 :)
What ITX motherboard do you recommend? Do you have the remaining part list ( cables, SSD, Motherboard, etc)?
Brilliant. Figure out some room for an AIO and I'm sold. :P
Can you try the MIDORI 5L Mini ITX case?
AWWW man! That power supply noise was just unfortunate! It's an otherwise fantastic build.
How does it compare with the sentry 2.0. Im still waiting for the case to arrived.
Could you show how to swap the PSU fan? I'm very intrested in that build
hey i hope u read this but i noticed the 500w plat version of this flex power supply has the fan out the back next to the plug so you dont run into the cable bunching problem
7:04 what's the monitor / refresh rate? Looks like massive input lag there...
Always love Mini ITX build
