I learned about one model that's really popular with small form-factor enthusiasts: The Enhance Electronics ENP-7660B, a 600 watt power supply. I also planned to add a Noctua fan to the case for stronger, quieter airflow.įor the power supply, I had to research the Flex 1U form factor, which is smaller than regular ATX and even SFX power supplies, and not commonly used in consumer tech.
Anything taller either wouldn't leave enough space for proper airflow or wouldn't fit, period.
That made one decision very easy:įor the cooler I picked Noctua's NH-L9i, because there's very little clearance between the motherboard tray and the top of the case. Someone on Reddit (opens in new tab) built a similar server to mine three years ago and documented the process of building with the NSC-810A, which gave me a good look at what would fit in the case.
