Any info, when the Densium 4 v2 will be back in stock??? There was one left to buy but when I wanted to place my order, someone was faster than me. Really unlucky with christmas being around the corner :(

Thank you so much. 🤗 The irony is, that I am so busy with job/life now, I stopped using my PC but using my laptop instead, since its my multi purpose for "one the go" device. 😟 I use my laptop for private documents and entertainment and my PC for gaming and image/video work that needs a bit...

A crazy year is going to an end and I am sorry not having continued with the final steps (wrapping the case with vinyl foil). But in the last days I finally found time to wrap and rebuild the pc of mine. I decided on a foil that fakes silver brushed aluminium. The foil piece was 153x30cm in size...

Thanks a lot 😁 Well, the opaque side panels are actually transparent. I left the plasic foil on for now 😆 Well, acrylic is never as sturdy as aluminium. The latter will at least bend before breaking. Acrylic panels are breaking right away. If I would drop the case, it would break. Of course...

Well, some thought that the 1650 was a fine update, offering +20-25% of performance increase (to the 1050Ti though) but I would have liked to see more myself too. Good 75W GPUs should be selling like hot cakes because the majority got either a budget restriction or/and a PSU restriction. I think...

I have a general question, seeing the title of that thread. May this be the end of LP GPUs, due to all that hardware shortage and those inflated prices? I mean, manufacturers are focusing on getting standard height GPUs made, probably?! Additionally, LP GPUs are a bit niche anyway. Dont get me...

Some small update. I have changed the design a bit, to allow more space between the cpu and gpu fans. The side panels were too close to the fans, so turbulances occured and therefore noice. Now the spacing is fine and the noice of the system is pretty much the same without side panels. Changed...

Not yet. I dont see a good reason actually. Creating a basic scetch is a matter of minutes. What takes quite some time is the thought process on how to design the case with your ideas and implementing it into your design. You may end up deleting most of my design choices to make room for yours...

UPDATE! I experience radom shut downs and freezes again :mad: First, I though it was the MX500 SSD thats getting too hot or the riser cable is introducing some issues. Now, I just switched out the Pico160xt for a standard ATX PSU and it seems to run smoothly again (further testing is...

Quick note: The power solution is done as well. I am using the Pico 160xt + Adaptec 192w/12v power supply only. With the aforementioned hardware, the max system power draw I saw while gaming (well rendering might push the power draw higher I gues but I don't do render stuff) was around 170w...

Success! All running fine... played some games for test and no more power reset. Even the fan of my GTX 1650s is not running and stops when I do shut down the PC. It is not drawing extra power since the system power draw in off mode is 2-3w (just like before). My soldering jobs are really not...

Now, everything is powering up normally... got CPU and GPU fans spinning normally but I do get following message on my screen: "please power down and connect the pcie power cables for this graphics card" I dont understand why this is happening. Do I have to solder the pin 5 of 6 which is...

I am in the middle of soldering. Just hoping not to wreck anything o_O Maybe tonight I have a try, if I get everything completed today. If the fan is spinning all the time, I can turn off the switch on my extension lead. I guess its learning by doing time!

I am aware of this but I asked around regarding this problem and I got the following reply "The GPU has a standby controlled from the PCIE key." So it should not matter than?!

Great, thanks. Some hope for my setup :cool:
