For context, this is my first PC build EVER. Not just my first SFF. I’m kind of stuck right now on which to get. The T1 seems to be objectively better designed, but it also seems to be much more for the tinker/SFF enthusiast. Building seems a lot more difficult, plus the warranty doesn’t seem to be nearly as good as what I could get on the Terra.

I really don’t want to mess up parts, or the case, or anything really. The Terra seems super easy to build in, and is much nicer looking imo. I could snag a nice 4 year warranty, and just have it sit there for a while.

Anyone who was or is in a similar situation as me have advice? It’d be very appreciated.

    If you’re getting hardware that’s going to run hot. It’s going to run hotter in both these cases. But the T1 has more options for cooling.

    You’re kind of limited in the Terra, so no exhaust fans without mods and smaller cpu heatsinks.

      I decided to get the R200 then upgrade to the T1 later. It just seemed better, I just fear that it won’t be big enough for the future gen GPUs.
