Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

I will write a comment for everyone who wants to buy this miracle! First of all, you will have to change the processor cooling, in the drain it roars terribly, here (the AXP90-X36 will help without losing the warranty) it will become much quieter, but there is one small detail . In order not to fly off the guarantee, the cooling will have to be put without removing the mother on the default backplate , that's just the holes in the backplate are screw . You'll almost have to drive it into the motherboard, a wonderful lesson)) Then the stock (upper turntables) will start to piss you off, buying a 92 thin turntable will not be enough, you also need (PWM fan adapters for VGA Cooler) which the hell can you find + you will have to tweak the holes of the turntables a bit with a drill (there is a video on Youtube) Further, the PC will become relatively quiet and an annoying squeak will start to bother you (which has not been heard before) - this says hello to the ferrite filter on the wires of the power supply, it is easily eliminated, but you will have to almost completely disassemble the PC. If all this is done, you can get a relatively quiet, super-compact 8L PC with good performance and a quality case. If you decide to disassemble this "device", consider the bolts that are used in Zotac - they are made of plasticine and are licked once or twice. What happened to me. I had to drill one and replace it with a similar one that I found at home. Here are the results of the stress test (with the new CPU cooldown + shamanism with turntables (Thermalright TL-9015) in bios (1100 permanently) after 25 minutes, percent + vidyuha at the same time: 10400: 70s 3060: 70s These temperatures can still be lowered (by 2-4s) if you saw off the internal nets near the body. We continue: Since I didn’t want to cut metal at home with a grinder in a NEW PC, and I don’t have a grinder either. I had to undervolt 3060 to 975 mV - this will give -4s for video and -1s for percent in a stress test. Phew . - now this is about what I wanted to get out of the box. Bottom line: I wanted SFF without unnecessary troubles - but I got a pain in my chest and a bunch of new skills (actually 4 stars only for this). I will assemble the PC trace myself, thanks to Zotac!

Pros
  • - Compact - Cute - well assembled - Good price for a turnkey solution (actually not, see comment) - Pumping skill (see comment)
Cons
  • - CPU cooling - Noise - No support for 11 generation processors
