Hello!! I just built an itx pc for my dad for general office use: Microsoft Word/Excel, internet browsing etc.

The case is inWin chopin pro and it can fit an AMD stock cooler. The only catch was that I had to remove its plastic top off to reduce its height.

I went for 5600g because the price combo CPU+MB on AMD was cheaper than Intel in my country.

    The Chopin Pro is such a great mITX case. I used one for the exact same build for my wife’s pc. It’s great for office apps and even for light gaming. It won’t win any competitions, but it runs what she plays just fine and is smaller than some textbooks I had in college

      With DDR4 3600 @C16 and modified Infinity Fabric settings, the 5600G is about on par with a GT 1050.

      It was my stop-gap gaming rig while I waited for GPU prices to come down.

    It looks exactly like mine and has almost all the same parts. I absolutely despise building in that case, but damn is it small and sexy.
