I still ended up with a pretty powerful machine by going with an i3-12100 instead of an i5&amp;#x2F;i7 which uses much less power and puts out less heat. The RTX 3080 reference card was the biggest card that could fit into the case which I undervolted.&lt;p&gt;A lot of people are undervolting their RTX GPU&amp;#x27;s because for an only about a ~3% performance loss you get about 10C less temp which translates to far less fan noise. I don&amp;#x27;t know why Nvidia doesn&amp;#x27;t just have a one click button for people.&lt;p&gt;nCase unfortunately have discontinued this case based on &amp;#x27;market factors&amp;#x27; which I suspect means that they don&amp;#x27;t anticipate things to be getting smaller and cooler any time soon.</text></comment>

Even with a 235W CPU and a theoretical 600W GPU you wouldn’t actually exceed even half the capacity of a single 15A circuit in synthetic benchmarks that stress the system beyond real-world loads.</text></comment>
