    Power Supply What Makes Corsair SFX Better Than the Rest?

    Corsair SF series seems to be the most recommended SFX PSUs in the community. What makes them better over other brands? Especially over the EVGA GM series? Is it because they been around longer? I personally have the SF600 Plat and no complaints so far. I'm looking into getting a EVGA SFX...

    AMD CPU Temp Help

    Please help me understand the differences, temperature wise, between 2600/2600X/2700X/3600. I'm especially interested to know the temps difference between the 2600/3600 vs 2700X. Is there a chart somewhere? I'm aware that the 2600/3600 have the lowest TDP at 65W, then 2600X at 95W and 2700X at...

    Prebuilt [SFFn] ASRock's DeskMini A300 - Finally!

    I'm getting my parts together for the A300 build. I noticed a good number of people are using the Sabrent NVMe, is there any particular reason for that specific model? Will the WD Black SN750 or Samsung 970 EVO Plus work with this build and which one would be better? Is a NVMe with a heatsink...

    Solved Noctua NH-C14 vs Noctua U9S vs be quiet Dark Rock TF

    I'm in the same boat as you. I got the ASRock Z390 and I'm looking for the optimal CPU air cooling solution for the NCase. If you find someone with a C14 and by some small chance they have a 2nd one please let me know.

    First Ever Build and It's a SFF PC.

    Are there any downsides to a mini card? I can still return mine and get a regular sized one. Now I'm trying to decide between the NCASE M1 and the DAN A4 case. I'm leaning towards the NCASE M1. Is everyone happy with their M1's, any buyers remorse? From what I read so far an M1 build is easier...

    First Ever Build and It's a SFF PC.

    I'll take all the cents I can get. I'm new to PC building so everything helps at this point :) In Canada the EVGA is the most expensive option at the moment. It's $200 vs $120 for ASRock or $180 for the ASUS. I purchased the ASRock earlier today as the sale was ending but since it seems to be...

    First Ever Build and It's a SFF PC.

    Is this the mobo you are referring to? Can I ask what makes it better? What makes the EVGA PSU better then the Corsair one? Is it quieter?
