Recently all sorts of things are busy. Today I finally have time to make up this article. Unlike the previous heroes of this chapter, this time I want to say that I think the ITX platform is the most worthwhile toss and the most essential part - the first statement of the chassis, the landlord It is not a party with fever performance, but a standard perfectionist appearance party. In other words, in the case of limited budget, I would rather save money from the three big parts in the chassis, cooling... But, Mighty Aunt, please tell me that such a friend must be more than me.
Formula first comes to local friend's town building
This article is not the same as the previous recommended series, will be accurate to the specific brand and model. Because this sort of thing is completely dependent on people’s preferences, some people are willing to spend one or two thousand and some are willing to spend one or two hundred and the maximum budget the landlord can afford is 600 or less. So under the premise of 600 budget, the landlord will give specific Recommended (purely everyone likes to spray)
Another point to be made is that in the eyes of the landlord, a chunky box like the Tess Bob W1 can't be considered an ITX at all! ! ! Size 242mm356mm362mm, the volume reached a staggering 31.2L
Fat and chubby...
It is not plagiarism ABEE plagiarism, the key is completely inconsistent with the landlord's aesthetic ah landlord that the width of less than 200mm, the volume below 20L is a qualified ITX chassis, in which the width of 100mm or less, the volume below 15L is Excellent ITX chassis (for size only)
The landlord has so far been a nuclear party, so not minimizing the space required for graphics cards does not meet the requirements. So, some of the old predecessors who came here to steal sight will surely know that I was talking about IN WIN Chopin. )
As for why this chassis is recommended, there are several reasons:
Small size
Chopin's size is only 84mm217mm244mm, the volume is 4.4L, a hand of a big hand can grasp the walk to want to use the living room TV to watch a movie to pick up and walk (the landlord then moved the ATX chassis upstairs are tired). If your monitor supports it, you can also hang it back.
Very small
2. No optical drive
This is why the Bach and Mozart of the same mold are not recommended (the landlord obsessive-compulsive disorder later). Although the optical drive cover on the panel does not affect the appearance, it is always uncomfortable... In addition, Chopin is a metal wire drawing panel. Two brothers forced a lot higher, but if the ultra-thin optical drive with the notebook removed can consider the same two models:
Mozart didn't know that he didn't sell for the dog, and there was a need for a deepwater treasure.
3. comes with power
The price of 499 also comes with the power of conscience, there are wood, especially for the landlord so poor people are worried about 150W is not enough, this can be assured that if not on the graphics card is properly adequate enough do not trust, then you can use entertainment master from With the power test to check Oh
Chopin comes with a 150W Bronze Flex power supply. The fly in the ointment is that the feedback noise is slightly larger and conditional. It is possible to replace the fan by itself or replace the power supply as a whole. However, it seems that the power supply's starting channel is less similar to the chassis and GAMEMAX. Ling Yue and Xiao Zhuge, but workmanship...so here's the link
At the same time if the budget is tight, and the skin is rough and not afraid of cutting the hand, you can also use Qiao Sibo V2, that is, fat point
2. Support ATX power supplySeparately supporting the ATX power supply is singled out, considering that many people will have the heirloom power supply left behind when upgrading the computer, and the ATX power supply is much cheaper than the SFX. When talking about this one, one must mention the comparison in recent years. Josper of the fire. Yu Sibo does not know when because of all aluminum side transparent elements in DIYer suddenly become a skyscraper, the price is close to the people's livelihood, many products of the Gospel of the Gospel also support ATX power supply, and the most recent one with the side is red hair purple
Size 160mm300mm345mm, volume 16.6L, graphics card length limit 270mm, modeling and color value really do not say But seemingly a bit like the problem of heat dissipation, is a well-known "cans jar" ... but daily households are not overclocking, then also okay, Yan value is justice
And if you have a longer triple-mild card and you want to go cold, this once-challenged CHH chassis will definitely meet you
Because only the official website can only be issued a plan...
Size 160mm240mm328mm, volume 12.6L, support ATX power supply, 300mm graphics card length limit, support 240 water cooling ... this NCASE M1 founder of the joint force looks infinitely beautiful, but need to be scheduled in advance with the manufacturers and slowly shipped from the island to you A friend who has patience and financial resources can try it. I gave up anyway.
To be honest, the chassis of the ATX power supply can actually be selected, but the face value is relatively low. If you want to lower the price, you can also choose Joe's V3+.
But having said that, even if the chassis can use ATX power supply, I also recommend using SFX power supply.
It was also said that the landlord is a perfect-looking party with a short-skinned chassis that can't enter the eyes, and the naturally chunky knife cards can't enter the eyes. What are the small and full-length graphics cards? Of course, for the novice, the devil does not think about what to change, although the landlord has so far been a nuclear party, but it also has an independent heart ah ... since the milk powder out of the picture quality enhancements, the nuclear display Dropped directly to 20 frames so I'm waiting for double 11, waiting for GTX 1050 (mainly because of poor)
Although the previously mentioned NCASE M1 can meet all requirements, the complicated purchase channels and expensive prices made me dauntless until one day, the landlord saw it.
This slender body, tough contours, amazing face value, is simply the perfect chassis of the landlord ah What? ! Also supports full-length graphics? ! what? ! Only more than 500? ! Deterrence, buy!
The RVZ02 chassis is a sequel to the Silver Crow Little Crow series and will be available in 15 years. Saying that this summer, there is a heavy taste drama called “Crow's Bloodâ€. I don’t know if there are any value-friends who have seen it, but have gone over the topic. Speaking of the crows series, it’s the peak of Yinxin’s patented vertical wind tunnel. A generation ago, unfortunately, it seems that it was stolen by Tess. You may think that adding a “small†character in front of a crow must have this kind of patent. 87mm370mm380mm size still want duct? This kind of thing on the air duct should not be too tangled in the ITX chassis. The high-performance and high-power consumption machines are not suitable for ITX. The level of daily household light games is basically not required for the air ducts. Rest assured
The second generation of small crows was reduced by 30% compared to the previous generation and was only 12.2L. There was also a slight change in appearance. But radish greens have their own love, anyway, the landlord likes the appearance of 2 generations. Attach a 1st generation appearance drawing for everyone to compare:
Feeling that the shape is not tough enough
The secret lies in why the small size can support full-length graphics.
Through the own adapter card, the vertical graphics card that should be perpendicular to the motherboard becomes parallel to the motherboard, and then extends the graphics card slot through the extended card that comes with it. This completes a perfect transition and uses a L-type adapter card - some of the chassis that support full-length graphics cards use a video extension cable, and graphics extension cable is like this
Can be measured, through the extension of the connection of the graphics card because of the circuit loss, will result in reduced performance Although the impact is not great, but for perfection, I can not accept it, and the crows 2 with the adapter card is almost perfect solved this problem
Do not say more about the other words of beauty, put a few beautiful plans to enjoy it yourself (the landlord cover pictures have non-HD photos)
Although the Little Crow 2 almost perfected the landlord's requirements for the ITX chassis, there were also some landlords who felt the deficiencies needed improvement.
1. In the all-aluminum chassis era, the steel plate shell is indeed a bit shabby (but you can suck network card antenna ah)
2. The plastic panel is slightly low... and the plastic side window that cuts through the plate can't stand it.
Anyway, do not play light pollution directly ignore the side-through version, but also cheaper 30 dollars
3. Optical drive panel for killing obsessive-compulsive disorder Although the optical drive position can be used to route or hard drive, the optical drive cover on the panel does
First of all, we must say that our country’s treasure island is indeed at the forefront of the world in certain industries. It is not only the motherboard royal family, but also unique in the design of the chassis.
Yinxin, Yingguang and Lianli are all from the evaluation of Baodao
In addition to the sudden emergence of Qiao Sibo in the Mainland, some veteran chassis manufacturers can not find bright spots.
There are also some brands that are widely praised by DIYers and not very well bought in China, such as ABEE.
The pirate ship 's chassis also has a lot of people like it, but the landlord feels a bit to kill Matt's breath.
5. About THIN ITX and STX Chassis and NUC
Originally, this series of topics was ITX, but before the value friend returned, he suggested that using ITX chassis is better than using NUC (I don't know if you ask yourself Baidu)
So here's a simple popular science: ITX is chosen to save space, not to bring ITX to bring your host to move between the bedroom and the living room at the most, you have to take the computer out of the door I really advise you to use a laptop or buy a Sophie Sri Lanka? Do you want to play games with your computer often? Then I advise you to go to Internet cafes
In terms of size, it is ITX> THIN ITX> STX> NUC , but there is a problem that must be noted is that, including THIN ITX and later small platforms require an external power adapter, right, is your laptop power supply a small host Plus a brick-like power adapter, almost no space-saving effect, it is not so easy to take away imagination, heat is also more catching chicken STX and NUC can not install graphics (STX simply speaking, in fact Is cutting off the graphics card slot ITX) And NUC CPU is BGA package, which is welded on the motherboard, ordinary people can not upgrade (can refer to the MAC MINI)
In summary, ITX is the best daily home platform in the mind of the landlord. If you don't feel bad about the power adapter, you can use THIN ITX to install an HTPC. This type of chassis is no longer recommended here.
6. Summary
Don't need a video card, please use welcome Chopin or Joe Sibo V2! To use the ATX power supply, please use Joe Sibo UMX1-PLUS or V3+! To use the card please use the silver crow crow 2! If you want to build a water-cooled nuclear bomb, please use NCASE M1!
The above is my ITX chassis buying experience, just for you novice DIY value friend reference. This article is purely a personal opinion. If you have any mistakes, please ask us to correct them. Our next issue: Heat dissipation and power supply (final articles) Goodbye
