GeekaPC 'Nano' (RTX 5080 / RX 9070 XT)

The GeekaPC Nano is a potent system based in the small form factor Lian Li A3 case. This PC is small, but wow, does it pack a punch! Equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 or AMD's RX 9070 XT, this system is built to handle gaming at 4K in the latest titles, providing excellent framerates in Esports and AAA games.

At the core of this build is none other than the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D. This is one of the fastest gaming CPUs on the market, thanks to AMD's 3D V-Cache technology. Equipped wth a 5.2GHz boost clock speed and plenty of cache, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is a powerful processor for this fantastic gaming PC build.

Keeping the Ryzen 7 9800X3D cool is the Montech HyperFlow ARGB 360. This is one of our favourite CPU coolers due to its vibrant and simplistic design, as well as its exceptional cooling capability. With three 120mm RGB fans and a powerful pump, the HyperFlow ARGB 360 is easily capable of handling the thermal output of our chosen processor.

The Lian Li A3 chassis provides a home for all of the components in our build. This is a modern, small form factor chassis that offers a stylish aesthetic front panel, alongside a highly ventilated set of metal mesh panels. Its compact nature allows you to easily hide it away, but its elegant look definitely makes it worth displaying.

For RAM, we've opted for a tried-and-true Corsair Vengeance DDR5 kit. We've opted for non-RGB lighting because of the height restrictions in the case, and also because it complements the more laid-back design of the overall build. By default, the Nano PC comes with 32GB of RAM, but this can be increased to 64GB if you're looking for a bit more oomph from this system.

Storage-wise, the Lexar NM790 makes a return. This is a highly powerful Gen4 drive reaching read speeds up to 7GB/s and write speeds over 6GB/s. It's a speedy drive and is ideal for keeping load and boot times to a minimum. The base model of this PC offers a 1TB variant of Lexar NM790, but you can upgrade to 2TB or 4TB if you need more space for all your games.

Last but not least is the power supply. The Corsair RM850e is the unit we've picked out to power this build. It's a reliable unit with a Cybenetics Gold efficiency rating and braided cables, providing a nicer look to the wiring.

*Note: The GPU model shown in the attached photos is the Gigabyte RTX 5080 WindForce SFF card. GeekaPC reserves the right to use any small form-factor model of the RTX 5080 or RX 9070 XT as selected, depending on real-time availability.
