Damn, I always find out about these risers when it’s too late XD hopefully the one I’ve used will suffice, but to anyone else copying the builds in this thread that riser looks like the one to pick up :thumb: Certainly! Though the solution is definitely not the most ideal one. Basically what...

UPDATE 2: The case is now sporting a much more appealing spice orange colour! The front panel and power button also got a quick coat of white to help make them look “cleaner”, definitely an improvement over the standard black cube I had. I’ve also added some rubber feet to the bottom of the case...

In regards to the internal psu I’m totally hopeless XD using a 1050ti meant I could thankfully bypass the need for it and just use the on board sata connector as mentioned, but I can see that’s not an option for you, though I can maybe offer some helpful information regarding motherboard power...

Since we’re working on such similar projects, I’d be more than happy to help in any way possible! You mentioned struggling with power delivery, what’s your current plan? Just to double check, you know that the h110s2’s Sata power connector can power the gpu? EDIT: regarding your changes to the...

Quick heads up @Ross Siggers , been doing some digging and even if you get a 4x capable riser, I believe you’ll be stuck at 2x speed. Judging by the frankly appalling assistance I got from ASUS the m.2 slot on the h110s2, which is usually 4x, shares its pcie lanes with the sata ports, meaning...

UPDATE 1 Everything works! Several hours of pure trial and error and I finally have the system fully working with the dedicated graphics card, though as a heads up to anyone else attempting this project, there’s a few points I’ve discovered that you’ll wanna take into consideration: - If you...

Thanks for the reply, it’s completely what I needed to hear. I did notice that the H110s2 has a sata power connector but was unsure at the time whether this would be enough, thank you for clearing that up :) My plan is to use a sata power splitter so that I can use one end for the GPU adapter...

Sorry I’m a bit late to the party, made an account specifically for this thread. I’m currently trying to remake your build with near enough the same specs, but I don’t completely understand how to power situation would work? You’ve mentioned using the pico itx for the riser and then a power...
