Small, Subtle and Stylish (Parvum Mini ITX build)

fireisdangerous · 8 Dec 2014 at 21:10

I needed a case that would fit stylistically with my recently renovated victorian terraced home and one that the Mrs wouldn't mind the look of! A tough mix of crieria you say. Well step forward the Parvum Guys. I have been emailing them for over a year about there mini itx case they have been developing and I finally found a reason to make the purchase. I love the simple but classy design of the case and I think it looks great in my living room.

Spec:

Case: Parvum Mini ITX case matte white
PSU: Silverstone SFX modular 450w
MOBO: Msi Gaming ITX
CPU: 4790k cooled with a H75 (have OC'd to 4.4ghz but leaving at stock ATM)
GPU: EVGA 780ti Superclocked edition
SSD: Kingston 256gb White edition

Here are some pics

Gpu looks a bit wonky but this is because i haven't got round to making it straight yet

Very nice, gave me some ideas for a HTPC

very nice mate, but I think you've got one of your fans the wrong way round, as at the minute both of them are trying to pull air into the radiator, so are acting against each other...

Good spot with the fans i will swap them over tonight !

I got it direct from parvum but they said overclockers should have them in stock before xmas.

This is a very nice and very neat build.

Very nice, and I like how much ventilation they've built into the case. Do you plan to add any dust filters, especially to the top grille?

This looks great! love those tiny cases.

i love my amd pc but I wish they did a mitx or matx board so I could take advantage of these awesome cases

fireisdangerous · 16 Dec 2014 at 17:29

Ventilation is very very good but all the system noise comes out the top vent so im looking into trying to dampnen the noise without impacting cooling. May add some sound proofing foam inside the case and some mesh over the gpu and some ruber case feet and see if that makes a difference.

this is awesome. in my top 10 builds I've seen. Just for the cleanesss and simplicity. Can we get a pic of all the mess around the back? (PSU, cables etc)
