I love how you still explain how to insert parts just in case someone wants to use this build as their first pc and you still make it interesting with great camerawork and dialogue for people who already know what’s up
@@suluxan3121 Yeah probably not unfortunately. I have a 3080 FE in mine right now, and I know the 4090 FE fits just fine too, but some of those 3rd party cards are chunky bois.
My friend, your videos are very good, educational and enjoyable, you are loved. My dream is to set up an itx system, but due to economic difficulties in my country, I could not collect it at all, but after watching your videos, I feel like I have collected it. Thank you, respect, love.
Nice detailed video. One remark though - if the pump is on CPU it should never be the highest point therefore radiator needs to be on top - you need to flip the case.
@@jeremy9505 bubbles, air bubbles if pump is at the highest level bubbles can damage it in worst case in best you will have worse performance. In my case with Atmos 240 AIO it was 5C worse when radiator was at the bottom.
@@KeepUrClothesOn hence i wrote if it’s in CPU. If in radiator then it’s bit more flexible but you still need to be careful for the pump alone not to be the highest point.
Literally yesterday built a 7800X3D and a Powercolor 6800XT, I whole hardedly agree a tray to separate the screws would have been a godsend. Took me 4 hours to build. The darn thing would post, so I disassembled everything down to the cpu, reassembled everything and come to find out my DP cable wasn’t plugged into my monitor. But it was soo fulfilling coming from a Lian Li Evo to see everything crammed in this case so smoothly. Custom cables are a must. I ordered mine from pslate customs.
Watching your builds is a pleasure, practically all the time the case is perfectly aligned in the scene both vertically and horizontally, so I get an idea of all the dedication you invest in each video. It's amazing!
Got my T1 V2 on the first batch. Current build is a 5800x3d, and a 3080 FE, but I will be building in this case for as long as I possibly can. Favorite case I've ever owned easily.
Why are you installing the radiator at the bottom of the case? That's a great way to prematurely kill the pump because the pump shouldn't be above the rad. The FormD T1 allows that configuration from the top. I really don't get that build decision.
The T1 V2 is by far my favorite case. Sadly my itx motherboard died so I am not using it currently but I am planning on rebuilding in it this holiday season.
I built almost exactly this build except I flipped the case so the radiator is on top. I also mounted the radiator to the bracket instead of the fans. This way I was able to mount 2 sllm fans exhausting on top of the radiator as well as a full size fan below the radiator just above the psu. Also use some of the remaining standoffs with the psu to give my FE gpu some breathing room
@@Yomet-nj1cf Yea same here, but i'm trying to scroll through comments to see any answers about the power supply custom cables and none of them have custom cable specs listed. Honestly going to do more research before buying.
Another excellent video. One of your best builds in my opinion. I love this case. It's similar to the Fractal Terra, but more flexible. I have the reference version of the T1, and I've been using it for the past year. The reference version is a very good solution for air cooling, as it has a lot more space for the CPU cooler. I prefer air cooling, but that's just me. The worst thing about this case I have experienced is the feet. I often move my PC from room to room, since it's so small. In so doing, and I am not heavy handed, two of the rubber feet have worn through to the metal underneath. So, if you slide it around too much like you do at 10:40 in the video, the feet will wear out. I just ordered some new feet from Ali Express lol.
Happy to see the 240 Atmos fits in position 3. I got a 4070 super but want to upgrade to the 5080 (whenever it comes out) and happy to see I won't need a new air cooler or AIO when that times come.
Great video! Why did you opt to put the radiator at the bottom? I know that's how the designer intended for the case to be oriented, but the majority of users just flip the case to prevent air getting stuck in the pump block, should be as simple as putting the panel with feet on the "top & flipping it over.
I now rarely see people putting their radiators at the bottom nowadays in their videos ever since that Gamers Nexus video hahah. He has definitely made an impact
Yeah, this comment should be higher up. There are some videos from older visions of the T1 sandwich that show both with air cooling and aio's, having the top fans as exhaust is slightly better for thermals. That's why I am running in my T1 v1.1 rn.
Wow great video, you knocked the build instructions out of the park! We're definitely going to be using the video as a reference for new users in the Discord. You covered a lot of small details that are easy to get caught on for this case. Great job!
Hey Devyn, absolutely love your videos, so clear and well roduced :) Btw wondering if you could do a size comparison some day since you have so many ITX builds, I find that its hard to find side by side images for cases these days
Yea, I like that idea. Was thinking about doing a vid on my favorite ITX cases this year. I'll have to make sure there are some good side by sides in it!
@@devyn.johnstonyes bro please compare all your itx builds so that we can get the idea of size and please compare it to a bagpack so that if anyone want to travel with them they can get the idea bro. Keep doing the best work .👍👍👌👌🤩🤗
I wish they could make one side power button, and the other an USB-C. Then give you the choice of which side to mount which. That'll give us at least one front IO USB
What lengths did you get for the custom cables? Was it just the gpu cables or also the motherboard? Your build inspired me to try to build my first pc.
Can you please tell me the details for the custom cables you used? Im not sure which to order. Im using a 4090 Cable Style: Cable Length: PSU Model: Comb Color:
Definitely the case I will be using for my desktop build. I don't know which color to go with though. There are so many variation of non-black colors and I would like to know how different those non-black colors are for this case. I kind of want something like Macbook Space Grey ish color possibly.
Is 47db good? It would be really helpful if you let the viewer, hear the sound by using a mic so we know how deep or high pitched the pc is. Otherwise great video❤ and I am planing on building my first pc in this case because my desk can’t quite fit a normal sized case without needing to hook it up to the bottom.
HI there, Love the build! currently using this as my reference for my T1 build. Can you please help me on the custom cables needed for a 4090 FE build with intel 14th gen? Where to buy and what length specs do i need for the cables :)
Check out the subreddit for FormD. There's a FAQ with some recommended cable lengths. Cablemod & ModDIY are popular choices. I bought a pre-made pack from ModDIY where they came up with shorter cables lengths. They're unsleeves so they're very flexible.
Hey Devyn! I am planning on pretty much copy pasting this build for myself (with the exception of some fan preferences) and I was wondering how the cooling/run temps have been since you built this? Will I have to worry about overheating months down the line? Awesome video and keep up the great work!
The temps have actually improved by a few degrees since shooting the video. I flipped the case by swapping the bottom panel and top panel, so now the radiator is on top. I would definitely recommend doing that, as it will increase the lifespan of the AIO. Thanks!
@DevynJohnston. Holy cow I just built in this case and thank you very much for your tutorial!!! It helped immensely, I got the V2.5 but it still helped me so much! Your 15 minute video took me 4 hours to build because I wanted to make sure it was right and I definitely did not want to do it again! Hahahaha Anywho, the only part I wish I would have done better was there is a whole in the GPU slot at the back of the case. I put it at the 3 slot GPU and I only have a 2 slot, in my head I figured what could go wrong, well let me tell you! I have a 1 slot whole on the back now hahahaha Anyway! I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart because if it wasn’t for this video I would have been screwed as the visualization instructions are a little hard to read. You’re the best! 🎉 Also I highly recommend this case! It’s an absolute beauty!!
Great video and build. But good luck with the AIO pump in 3-5 months going bad. The air is going to be trapped at the highest point in the loop with the radiator at the bottom, and the air is going to rise to the pump. So the pump is going on air eventually. Steve from Gamers Nexus did a great video on that. Other than that a great video again. Keep up the good work.
Yea, I mistakenly overlooked the idea of flipping the case and putting the feet on the "top". An easy fix and would be the ideal orientation for the AIO. I have the correction in my pinned comment and vid description.
Fantastic video, really. Just found your channel; Excellent. Looking to build my very first pc. How do I get this case? This case or Dan C4-SFX, but I can't find any, I'm in Canada
Sorry to ask you about this on this video, but I have some questions about your XProto-L build : - What cable extensions did you use ? I'm not sure I found the right ones on the Xtia website, I'm afraid of ordering the wrong ones. - Does the case allow the installation of a 2.5 SSD ? Thanks in advance for your answer :)
ive been looking at itx cases for almost 10 years now... one day 5 years ago i decided to get me a skyreach mini... i still use it today.. its basically is perfect , BUT its toooo loud when gaming.. im also not a fan of watercooling (mainentence) thats why i think the next case i will build diy with makerbeam to fit the fans i want... i want a "cube" with 200mm fans on four sides.....
I really liked the video, especially since I am trying to deciding on a case. Unfortunatly the FormD T1 and the Dan C4-SFX are sold out for quite some time. I also like the Lian Li A4-H2O. In another video I have seen that there might be an issue with heat management when using components that are too demanding. I'd get components like an RX 7800 XT with a Ryzen 5 7500F and plan to build it in an A4-H2O using an AIO. Do you think this will work fine, also considering later upgrade options?
7:50 the stock SF750 cables are more than good enough in the FormD T1 - I'm running an air cooled build in triple slot mode and with some cable ties they are easily managed. If you think the SF750 cables are bad the ones from the EVGA GM line are FAR worse - horrendous cables.
Wow. What CPU, cooler and GPU are in that build? Not much room for cooling left and that with a 3 slot GPU. I'm guessing you have a pair of T30s on top, sucking at maximum capacity to keep that setup from throttling. I'm curious, so please share. I just finished my T1 build today, using an Atmos 240, and cabling was quite a challenge with stock Corsair cables. It turned out quite nice, but it took me many, many hours to get it right. I had to mount the PSU in alternative / 90 degree mode, to prevent the cables from clogging up the airflow of the T30 on the radiator. AIO tubes are very cramped in that setup, but it works, just barely.
good video btw, you got the tiny step more understandable for first-buyer of this case as me. But you talk too much about the component used in this case, that must takes half the duration of the video that i dont want to hear and just skip those part. Hope you can cut them short in the next videos.
Hi Devyan, good to watch your videos. I like how you build pc using components,they look amazing. I am new to pc and I have never build my own and I wonder, will I be able to figure out how to connect all parts 🙃 .
For multitasking MS Office, PDFs, browser tabs, and statistical packages (e.g. Stata, SPSS, Python) and then in free time some gaming which CPU from the ones mentioned will be better to have a snappy experience.
Beware with the Arctic P12 slim fan *without* any kind of washers/rubber buffers between the fan and the motherboard! I did pretty much the exact same setup here, and after a week or so of use the P12 slim destroyed itself by coming in contact with my motherboard! Luckily my motherboard is still fine but now I have to get a brand new fan. Please avoid this if building this yourself.
Great call out. I am using Arctic P12 so I will keep an eye out. I got fan covers for both of them so I think it'll be ok but Will still keep an eye out
@@devyn.johnston you can also try to use an air cooler for the CPU, the biggest you can put in with 5-6 pipes and put to two fans at the top to pull the hot air out. This will drastically decrease the GPU temps and might raise abite the CPU temps. The radiator is trapping all the hot air that the GPU creates. You can try this and see how the temps improve for you. Might even be an idea for an update video
@@notaaronc4539 to my knowledge there's no standard you get to decide how you want to do it, buy the sandwich (upside down) layout performs better thermally thus allowing the GPU to get slightly higher boost clocks as compared to the reference (right side up) layout
You dont understand how bad I want a mini itx pc. Like i seen Optimum's setup with this case and Im going to heavily inspire my desk setup after his, because it so clean and sleek, ugh IDK.
Won't the pump pull air bubbles being at the highest point in the loop. Leading to early pump death. I went with the Dan a4 h20. 7800x3d + 4090 fe. 240 kraken aio. System has good thermals. And pump is lower then radiator.
Generally I prefer Mini itx tower case, but this one really impressive me, I just love this case, unfortunatelly, all perfect cases like this, doesnt sell in brazil.
Loved the vid, but the build seems so intricate it completely throws me off from wanting to attempt it lol. Ordering custom cables? Replacing the fans on the AIO unit? Having to use custom screws and add a fan grill? No thanks.
Hey Devyn, do you have any recommendations for using an air cooler on your CPU rather than AIO in this case? Do you see any drawbacks to using an air cooler? Would it yield better or worse cooling performance than an AIO?
I have an AMD 5600g going into this case. Lower TDP CPU's like mine doesn't need a watercooler to run well. If you have a big ass GPU, you'll be limited on height for your CPU cooler. I have a 2-slot thick GPU so I'm going with as big an air cooler as I can, which is the Noctua L12S.
How did you get the Noctua fan to fit with the grille? Using the same cooler, fan and mobo combo, but the clearance is so low the fan grill gets pushed into the fan by the motherboard while the case is closed.

I just finished my T1 build today, using an Atmos 240, and cabling was quite a challenge with stock Corsair cables. It turned out quite nice, but it took me many, many hours to get it right. I had to mount the PSU in alternative / 90 degree mode, to prevent the cables from clogging up the airflow of the T30 on the radiator. AIO tubes are very cramped in that setup, but it works, just barely.
good video btw, you got the tiny step more understandable for first-buyer of this case as me. But you talk too much about the component used in this case, that must takes half the duration of the video that i dont want to hear and just skip those part. Hope you can cut them short in the next videos.
I'd rather flip the case so that the aio is on top so that it gets more airflow
That's the way to go.
Hi Devyan, good to watch your videos. I like how you build pc using components,they look amazing. I am new to pc and I have never build my own and I wonder, will I be able to figure out how to connect all parts 🙃 .
Another epic build, another epic video, thanks!
As Always a Pleasure watching your videos.
For multitasking MS Office, PDFs, browser tabs, and statistical packages (e.g. Stata, SPSS, Python) and then in free time some gaming which CPU from the ones mentioned will be better to have a snappy experience.
loved the build sans the 7800xt gigabyte OC
Beware with the Arctic P12 slim fan *without* any kind of washers/rubber buffers between the fan and the motherboard! I did pretty much the exact same setup here, and after a week or so of use the P12 slim destroyed itself by coming in contact with my motherboard! Luckily my motherboard is still fine but now I have to get a brand new fan. Please avoid this if building this yourself.
Great call out. I am using Arctic P12 so I will keep an eye out. I got fan covers for both of them so I think it'll be ok but Will still keep an eye out
So easy to follow thank you!
If you flip the case around bottom to top the temps will be better
yea you're 100% correct. I overlooked the idea of flipping the case
@@devyn.johnston you can also try to use an air cooler for the CPU, the biggest you can put in with 5-6 pipes and put to two fans at the top to pull the hot air out.
This will drastically decrease the GPU temps and might raise abite the CPU temps.
The radiator is trapping all the hot air that the GPU creates.
You can try this and see how the temps improve for you.
Might even be an idea for an update video
Wow you can build your own console this way, with way better performance and put it in a living room setup.
If you could ever actually buy this case, that would be pretty cool.
Got a link for those shorter rad screws?
Why not use an SFX-L PSU? If I look at 10:07, it looks like it would fit well.
So that logic u could use any 240mm rad with slim fans? Just flip the case over?
I think it’s upside down
Is it intentional? Or any modding require?
It's designed that way
@@fishhh009no modding is required, everything should work out the box
@@NaitikMaini so for like a standard build would that be upside down or right way up because I have mine flip over
@@notaaronc4539 to my knowledge there's no standard you get to decide how you want to do it, buy the sandwich (upside down) layout performs better thermally thus allowing the GPU to get slightly higher boost clocks as compared to the reference (right side up) layout
You dont understand how bad I want a mini itx pc. Like i seen Optimum's setup with this case and Im going to heavily inspire my desk setup after his, because it so clean and sleek, ugh IDK.
Can you flip the orientation on this case? I do not like the pump being on top of the radiator.
Yup. Just flip it.
Won't the pump pull air bubbles being at the highest point in the loop. Leading to early pump death. I went with the Dan a4 h20. 7800x3d + 4090 fe. 240 kraken aio. System has good thermals. And pump is lower then radiator.
yea I didn't flip the case in the video. I have the correction in the pinned comment and description.
LOVE YOUR CONTENT OF TECH AND PRESENTATION!! AWESOME!!! ^_^!!
Hey devy, does the case come with the support for the 240mm radiator and fan or do I have to buy the essential pack with it?
Is the breakout box (9:47) included somewhere, or do you have to buy it separately? Where can I get this breakout box?
Generally I prefer Mini itx tower case, but this one really impressive me, I just love this case, unfortunatelly, all perfect cases like this, doesnt sell in brazil.
Import
I'm thinking of ACTUALLY building this! If I put a 4080/4090 in it, can I be getting overheat issues?
I'm a pc noob here. 😅
Are SF750s still in production? They seem very hard to get.
Watching this on my t1 rig
Loved the vid, but the build seems so intricate it completely throws me off from wanting to attempt it lol. Ordering custom cables? Replacing the fans on the AIO unit? Having to use custom screws and add a fan grill? No thanks.
Will we ever see motherboards with usbC only io? UsbA should be obsolete by now
Im planning to build a productivity pc for work with a 13700k and 4060. Which one would have better thermals? Formd T1 or Lian li A4 H20?
Corsair just needs to work out miniITX chase😊
Hey Devyn, do you have any recommendations for using an air cooler on your CPU rather than AIO in this case? Do you see any drawbacks to using an air cooler? Would it yield better or worse cooling performance than an AIO?
I have an AMD 5600g going into this case. Lower TDP CPU's like mine doesn't need a watercooler to run well. If you have a big ass GPU, you'll be limited on height for your CPU cooler. I have a 2-slot thick GPU so I'm going with as big an air cooler as I can, which is the Noctua L12S.
Very clean, but ASUS mb on AM5 is risky 💀
How did you get the Noctua fan to fit with the grille? Using the same cooler, fan and mobo combo, but the clearance is so low the fan grill gets pushed into the fan by the motherboard while the case is closed.
What are the custom cable lengths you used?
