    DAN C4-SFX & C4-MATX

    Are we now 9 years in on the C4 SFX? I haven't looked for the original thread, but think it started in 2017... I think grandchildren may arrive sooner than the V 2.0. Please don't read this as criticism of Dan, it's a bit of gentle humour. I appreciate we are living in a complex and fast moving...

    Hi Phil from Australia here.

    Those sound like great design elements, finding the best way to keep Flex PSUs cooler and quiet. Overtek here in the UK has worked hard to source and supply decent and quiet Flex units, I will be shopping for one at some point soon for my NFC Systems build

    Hi Phil from Australia here.

    Only sad as I'm a Pommie Imgur reject.../winging They sound good; all USFF 5L, and under. How are you finding the Silverstone FX600 noise wise? I have an aversion to 'jet engine' 40mm fans in Flex PSUs which I haven't investigated further after early bad experiences with unpleasant noise profiles

    Cooling GPU Heatsink Transplants?

    I have just picked up a 3 fan Gigabyte RTX 3060Ti Gaming OC Pro, and noticed that the PCB is 90mm or so shorter than the heatsink and triple fan array. Are there any sub 200mm 2 slot heatsink/coolers that can be easily installed on this GPU? I know that there have been a few people picking...

    Log NFC 4TF Experimental Buuild

    I have watched from the sidelines for about 3 years how has Josh has created and has developed the 4TF case design. Talking to a friend with a 3D printer the other week, he said he had considered it but hadn't justified a test print of the frame, so would be happy to print one out to see how it...

    I miss my mSTX setup, I'm sorry I can't see the build images as they're not available to me in the UK. I guess they're on Imgur, who closed off UK access rather than comply with our online safety requirements... I'll look out for a tiny Fujitsu over here as they have always done some unusual...

    SFF.Network More Power for Less Money: Build Your Own Steam Machine

    My first ITX board was a Core 2 Duo MoDT board, then a Zotac 775 board that died, followed by an H81N that was great as it had an mSATA slot and was there for the longest time, until Win 11 meant an 8th get setup was needed. Ironically the Ivy Bridge and Haswell setups (esp i5 and up), were...
