mini mac pro-is it possible?

[avis144]

Hey all.
i saw this build here in the forum and i thought to take it and upgrade the Sh...t of it to bring it to a level that i can edit 4k with it
and still keep my mac on my desk as small as possible.

CPU: Intel Core i7 6400
MB: Asus Z170I PRO GAMING (I chose this one because I need a displayport and a m.2 slot)
CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS2X
RAM: Crucial 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO 1000-GB
CASE: Streacom F1C Evo Chassis
WiFi card: Broadcom BCM94352Z

I am still looking for a solution for GPU, thought a bout the GTX-970 outside the case.
can anyone help me out with it..
it's my third hack and this time i want a computer which would be small so i could put it on my desk.
has any one build such beast?

Use a different case if you want a discrete GPU. A slightly larger case will still take up less room than an external GPU case added to your PC case.

I use this Nvidia video card and it got displayport.

Silverstone ITX case with SFF power supply

This is probably the best smallest ITX case and its good. It got front air intake filter and 120mm water cooler will fit in there as well. It'll be tight but doable.

Thanks for the answer.
Do you think it can handle video editing in 4k well?
Many thanks

You mistakenly listed i7-6400 which should be i5-6400. It'll still work but you might want to consider getting i7-6700 or i7-6700K if you are going to do a lot of 4K editing to cut down on processing time. You'll need a watercooler for this as big heatsink will not fit in the small ITX case. I do have Silverstone ITX case with water cooler.
