I need an ITX Board to use for test fitting things in a case I'm building.
But I don't wanna risk the real one to a drill / other tools. So, I want a dead board instead, so I don't feel bad when I inevitably break something on it.
It doesn't need anything special, I just need the motherboard...
Looking to buy an mITX board for an intel 7th gen CPU.
Reqs: At least 1 NVME Slot, and PCI-E Slot
Overclocking is unimportant, as the CPU is non-k
What'cha got sitting in a box at this point?
Well, mostly.
I haven't attached the side panels and such. Blue acrylic for those.
Case is made from 0.118" Styrene Sheet. I may put more edging around the corners. Haven't decided yet.
4x 120mm intake Arctic PWM fans
1x 120mm Exhaust PWM fan
2x 92mm Exhaust PWM fans
Front on the motherboard...

That's.... that's a really power heavy card.
So, new standard PSU for a rig with it will be 800W minimum? 1000W For a bit of headroom?

This is a really strange design. But possibly really cool?
EATX, Dual ITX, and all sorts of strange options. I'm oddly tempted....
So I'm having some issues with my front USB ports on my case. It's about 4 years old now, so that's entirely possible, given wear and tear.
I e-mailed their support asking if I can order the module from the front of the case by itself.
We trade a couple emails with information, and I get a...

Dead!
I've got a 6700k (Still stock, after BIOS flash and complete gutting/cleaning/rebuild) sitting under a Corsair H1156i 280mm Cooler.
Arctic P14 PWM fans on them. (Good SP fans)
If I stress test the CPU, I can thermal throttle it, at stock speeds. Which is obviously not what a 280mm AIO should...

So recently I scored one of these at Goodwill for 8$
So, I want to expand the base with a fresh built wood enclosure, and throw a PC into the base to run MAME.

It's a fun system to mod, and 37$ is worth it for the two controllers.

160mb/s Read, 90mb/s Write - designed for 4K Video.
Pretty damned solid price for a high-speed card.
Looking for a pair of playstation 4 controllers in good / decent shape.
Would prefer 2 at once (save on shipping) but 1 isn't a guaranteed no. Got Paypals for your Controller(s)!

Yeah, they fucked it all the hell up, but at 60% off original retail... Might be worth it.
Most mATX Cases don't seem to really be that much smaller than ATX at this point.
What're some good mATX Cases that still support a full sized GPU?
The Thermaltake Core G3 is an interesting one (Super slim, but still tall)
Any others?

Last time it was up, it got some pretty good traction from people!

Go to the other sellers page, and there's an Amazon Warehouse deal for 36 bucks.
When I search on the amazon warehouse itself, I don't see it there.

Near historical low (23.99) for the game on ITAD. With the new content coming out soon, might just be worth it.

Not a bad price at all...
Yeah, weird subject, but sometimes computers are weird.
I've noticed that my Enthoo Evolv can resonate with my voice if I speak loudly, or when I sneeze. The front panel will start vibrating audibly after speaking. It's so weird.
Anyone else seen anything like that with a case before?

That's a damned solid price for a laptop with that level of gaming ability. Only a 1080 screen, though.

Considering the saw portion of this is 99$ retail, that's a steal.
Just got a heads up from Gamestop:
XBox One S is 50$ off normal, plus you get a 50$ Gift Card. (Powerup Members Exclusive)
Seems like a damned solid sale on the console.

Did some searching on here but didn't see any available.
Looking to buy a Socket 1150 mATX Mobo for a 4770 (non k, so OC isn't a thing.)
It doesn't need to be anything fancy in terms of features, it's for an HTPC and will run a GTX 1050TI.

that looks like a pretty spanky deal.
So last year I built a new HTPC for myself, and... well... made a couple mistakes.
CPU AMD FX-8230E w 16GB RAM
Video: GTX950 2GB
So, currently it outputs 4K desktop resolution (because GTX 900's do that)
But it won't do 4K in any applications, because hard encoding.
