Very nice:) But where did you hide the 24pin?

It is baffling to me that the C4 with it's very short and limited run has almost as many pages here on the forum as the GOAT A4-SFX, which is around since 2015. I'm not really a fan of the C4, consider myself more of an A4 guy, but the people's interest for the C4 based on this forum is undeniable.

I can second that, ASRock's z790 itx board is very nice. It's not perfect as it's missing the bios flashback button (something their z690 itx board have), but if you awnt DDR5, then it's something we have to live with. But the fact that you can have two M.2 drives SIDE-BY-SIDE and in a low...

With the Asetek rad, you need the LoserCard mod that elevates the psu a bit. However, it's still very hard to accomplish cable-; and tube management without a custom shorter 24pin - yet the case will still feel stuffed. To be honest, I'm not entirely convinced if it's worth to use the Asetek aio...

More coverage - with the usual tech-youtuber ahegao-face that's somehow mandatory nowdays. Edit: thumbnail changed👍 It's showcasing the Velka 3 and it's features really nicely. While I probably wouldn't populate the rear M.2 here, this is a very powerful system with attention to proper cable...

I remember about 1.5-2 years ago I saw a reference 6750XT available at caseking. I visited the store page for a whole week every day, put it into the basket and always resisted the urge to buy it - then it became out of stock. It was so beautiful, a black card with some white touches and looked...

After an initial hiccup, I managed to actually succeed with my watercooling project in the Dan A4-SFX - it was not a full loop, just a custom-made aio and also noctuarize my 2060. That was back in 2020 and it was when I actually felt like I reached my end game state. However, I started to miss...

How about keeping the Panorama 2 and simply switching to a noctua fan instead?

Apparently, this is the daily driver from the ExplainingComputers youtube channel studio tour video for reaching 1M subscribers. Sad that we're not able to peak inside. The guy is an absolute legend btw. Everything is coherent and authentic from the dude himself, his voice, the pauses he has at...

If I'm honest, your current build is pretty much that already. Of course some games are not as nicely optimized, but in Cyberpunk, GoW (whatever most people play nowdays) you can have 60fps with the settings MAXED (but without RT) and 12GB VRAM sounds lovely. A 4070 Super could easily grant you...

I think with cases this big should be made more sturdier with solid metal panels and reinforced structure. I know this is somehow got sold as the new craze but cheap, wobbly mesh panels (especially at this size) and ...FABRIC(!) definitely has no place here. Imagine this housing a heavy triple...

For me, the handle is not very appealing as I would never transport a case that way instead of just picking it up single handedly or putting it in a snug camera bag if it's an actual haul between one place to another. And even the feet seems a bit unstable compared to those you could buy...

The L5 to me looks aesthetically the most pleasing case of all time. As for a 5L riserless case that is made to accomodate a low profile dual slot gpu and two 80mm case fans, I would suggest the A24-v5.

If it has to be battery powered, I would look for components with the smallest consumption. This would probably lead me to the 12-13400T - which is a 35w version of this cpu with -200Mhz. Then with a heavy heart, grab an ASRock A380 Low Profile (45w) instead of the 4060 (115w). It has a little...

Actually, I should've just linked that instead in the first place. Less cookies to accept, but the whole official page is just a giant jpeg that loads super slow for some reason:)
