sorted byNo. You need a MATX case, the cheap MATX case in the same style is a SG13, but I would advise against that case as its lacking in airflow. Good silverstone MATX case to get is the PS15, thats a Tiny (25L) tower case that can be had for under £50, well that of the Fara H1M which is a bigger case, but still very small (30L). Either of those should fit a 1660, even the triple fan versions.
As for power supply any good ATX power supply would work, as almost all MATX cases use them. Ideally get a gold rated ~500W ATX from Seasonic or Corsair both at gold level and above produce nothing but good/great PSU's and only cost a bit more than rubbish ones.
ITX boards are a dead end now unless you are building a £1000+ machine as any worth buying start close to £200. Honestly return the case, the MATX version of the SG13 is the SG11, I made a typo earlier, but as said don't buy the SG11 its an old case not suited to modern massive heat hardware.
well, you can have even more fun by first disassembling it ^ ^
Guess it's worth asking what your experience was with them? Personally had no issues myself, and that was buying bundles off their ebay account which seems an even riskier endevour...
Seems like cpu is already installed into socket
"Assembled and tested by our technical team, the CPU, motherboard and memory are assembled with BIOS settings configured ready to be installed into a case."
Putting it together is half the fun
what kind of power supply would i need for this with an SSD and a
gtx 1660 super (210 from CEX)
I want to play half life alyx in VR on my oculus quest 2
Thanks, I’ve ordered the sg13 case, I like it cause it’s small.
Looks like I need a mini itx motherboard that will take a Ryzen 3600, but the m itx boards are very rare and expensive
Thinking of gigabyte a520I ac, and a 5600g cpu
