With ASRock's X399M Taichi motherboard ready to take Ryzen Threadripper to smaller spaces, Ryan tries to squeeze as much power as he can into an Fractal's new Micro-ATX Meshify C Mini case. Check out our latest video to see how the build came together.

Fractal Design Meshify C Mini Build

Of course, all those components in a small case leads to the challenge of making all the cables fit cleanly! So be sure to check out our cable management time lapse to see how Barry pulled it off.

Thanks to Fractal Design for providing the case, ASRock for the motherboard, Cooler Master for providing the case fans, Seasonic for providing the power supply and MNPCTech for providing the GPU support bracket used in this build.

Note: Benchmarks weren't ready in time to include here, but we'll update this post with a link to the Completed Build next week once they are done

Now all we need ASRock to release is a Mini-ITX TR4 motherboard. I know those crazy wackos can come up with such crazy proposition.

The Meshify C is not my cup of tea, but I like how the end build looked like. Stubby, inoffensive... But packs quite a punch.

Nice Build! I have a bias, since I have a very similar build with the same motherboard and case with 2 x 1070 TIs. I recently changed the AIO to the Enermax 280 cooler and had problems connecting the block to the CPU/OPT header and the radiator fans to the Main CPU fan header. The logo did not light up and I thought it was a bad pump at first, but after some experimenting, it seemed the pump was not receiving enough power. Swapping the pump to the main CPU fan header and the radiator fans to the CPU OPT header resolved my issue.

Great build. I loved the walk through. Did you only put in the M.2? No SSD's? May I ask why?
