Hello Overclockers!
I'm looking around at parts, fantasizing about my third build! The two computers I've built so far have been mid-tower ATX's. I saw this BEAUTIFUL case from NZXT (the Manta)

I LOVE IT! Though I have no experience with mini ITX. I figured since I only use 1 pcie slot there's really no reason for a full-sized ATX?!
I was wondering though, do you take a hit in performance with the smaller motherboards? Or is it just less slots, less fan connectors, etc?
I'm wanting to build a pc around an i7, watercooled, 16gb ram, 980ti (unless I can find a 1070), ssd... Do you think this case would work well for this build? Keeping temps in check? This will be my first water cooled system.
What ITX would you recommend?
Much luv!
