    PCIE Bifurcation

    Do you have any pointers for where to begin? Purely out of curiosity about how it all works, at this point.

    PCIE Bifurcation

    Oh wow, this is amazing! I don't have any use case personally for any of your current adapters, but I am absolutely fascinated by your work. Just out of curiosity, I've made a few basic PCBs myself for hobby projects, at the level of Arduino shields with I2C, SPI, and similar stuff. How much...

    DAN A4-SFX: The smallest gaming case in the world

    Has anyone here mounted their A4-SFX behind a VESA-mounted TV or monitor? If so, how? I've found a number of VESA mount brackets for game consoles, Apple TVs and similar equipment, including some "universal" ones, but nothing that would fit something as "big" as the A4 or similar sized cases...

    PCIE Bifurcation

    Either could work. I think two M.2 slots stacked vertically could work for some front M.2 slots in combination with a small enough CPU cooler. E.g. on my Gigabyte Z370N and Noctua L9i, the space directly above the front M.2 is empty. Two or four M.2 slots horizontally *might* work for some...

    PCIE Bifurcation

    How difficult would it be to make something like this but in M.2 format (x4 -> x4x4 or x4->x4x4x4x4 for instance)?

    PCIE Bifurcation

    Ah, that's a bit bulky for a small form factor. :/ I was hoping for something like an M.2-size card with two riser cables. Interesting to know that an switched solution exists for full-size PCIe though - perhaps as M.2 becomes more widespread, something will be released for that form factor too...

    PCIE Bifurcation

    Does anyone here know of any options for attaching two or more M.2 PCIe SSDs to a single M.2 slot? Could be either through bifurcation (if any motherboards support M.2 bifurcation), or even better would be using a PCIe switch.

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    Dynatron T318 with a Noctua A9x14 ziptied to it is the standard option for X99 in the Dan A4. I still have a T318 lying around that I don't need anymore, in case you can't find it easily available. edit: Oh, didn't see that there was another page and you already figured it out. Still, offer...

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    Oh, I was just thinking that 4x16G SO-DIMMS plus a new board might still be cheaper than 2x32GB DIMMS. ;)

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    Another alternative would be to go with the EPC612D4I board, which has 4 SODIMM slots. That would give you even more capacity, and quad channel. Should work with non-Xeon CPUs, I think. Or go for X299.

    X99 on mITX: ASRock X99E-itx/ac

    Most 32GB+ moduels are RDIMM or LRDIMM, which won't work with non-Xeon CPUs. There isn't any 32GB UDIMMS on the market as far as I know. Samsung recently released some 32GB SO-DIMM modules. IF they released a 32GB UDIMM, then in theory it might work. Or you could try with a SO-DIMM to DIMM adapter.

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    Did you ask DPD to send it to the parcel shop? I thought I would get mine delivered home today, but just saw in the tracking that it's at a parcel shop too. Not happy about that...

    DAN HSLP-48: A powerful sub 50mm heatsink

    I imagine they might be able to repair and resell them. If it's just the soldering it might be as simple as reflowing them again. On a vaguely related noted, I've been hunting down some VLP RAM over the last few weeks and have ended up with an extra Crucial/Micron 2400MHz 16GB module...

    GHOST S1 - When both size & performance matters

    As far as I understand it, they had all of their European orders shipped from Taiwan to EU together, and will be dividing them into individual customer shipments here. So I assume customs and VAT will be taken care of by them. But I could be wrong.

    HP EliteDesk 800 G2 Mini PC

    I wouldn't be sure it's a software issue; if you didn't change anything software-wise I'd consider hardware errors too. Running memtest86 might be worth running for instance to rule out a problem with RAM. Hard drive IO errors can on occasion cause a system to freeze too, though I haven't had it...
