Assembling a High-End ITX Gaming PC in the SG13 Case (2020)
Introduction
Here at The Tech Buyer’s Guru, it’s our goal to make building PCs easier for everyone, from first-time builders to veterans. And that means always testing new components and configurations to find the best combination to meet your needs! This is particularly important in the Small Form Factor arena, where user experience and performance come down to much more than specs alone. You can very easily put a lot of effort into a system that is most definitely less than the sum of its parts. Our aim is to show you how to build systems that are more than the sum of their parts, of course!
With that being said, we hope you enjoy our latest mini-ITX hand-on assembly guide.
