    Hello everyone! I recently made a post of my SG13 build in reddit here. Hope my build log/guide could be of help to anyone looking to build in this case!

    Cooling ID-Cooling IS-47K 47mm 6-heatpipe cooler with 92x15mm fan - Black Ridge alternative?

    Did you mean this one? Seems a good alternative to the ID-Cooling ARGB fan, but I don't think it's available where I'm from, at least when I searched for it the last time. Thanks for the suggestion tho :)

    No worries, I'll wait until you're able to test it out. Thanks :D

    Cooling ID-Cooling IS-47K 47mm 6-heatpipe cooler with 92x15mm fan - Black Ridge alternative?

    Iirc, the fan in this is supposed to be ARGB, isn't it? Would you be able to take a pic of it when turned on? Kinda thinking of getting just the fans to replace my non-RGB ID-Cooling NO-12015 fan that I used on my deshrouded GPU.

    SG13 Front Mount PSU Build (Stupid pic heavy)

    Hey @Max78 ! Didn't expect to see you replying this thread after all this time. You mentioned that you've redesigned this case about 6 more times; would you be willing to share what you've done to this build? I'm interested because I've recently built in this case as well, and after tinkering...

    Power Supply SFX non-L PSU? Is Corsair ok to buy now?

    There are several options for SFX PSUs. Corsair SF series being the famous one. Other SFX PSUs worth looking at are: FSP Dagger Pro 650W 80+ Gold Lian Li PE550/750 80+ Gold Silverstone SX650-G 80+ Gold Silverstone SX700-PT 80+ Platinum (latest model)

    Power Supply Silverstone FX500 Specs Reveal

    Hopefully some makes a modular mod for it, just like the Enhance 7660B ? At the meantime, I'm going to send them an email regarding price and availability. Hopefully it won't be as expensive as the SX700-PT.

    Hey all! I don't think this has been posted, but when I was looking around Silverstone's website, I noticed that they have added their latest FX500 Flex ATX PSU page on the site. Link: https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=935&bno=24&tb=14&area=en

    GPU Does anyone know the trend of how long will the ITX versions of Nvidia GPUs will be released after the new generation is announced?

    Thanks for the reply! I didn't realize there was a similar thread posted before. Will definitely have a look at that. Hmm, yeah that's what I expected as well. Not to mention the RTX 3000 series is going to be quite expensive at launch as well. Anyway, thanks for the input! I really appreciate...

    GPU Does anyone know the trend of how long will the ITX versions of Nvidia GPUs will be released after the new generation is announced?

    Hey guys! So recently a friend of mine has been sort of inspired to build an SFF PC after seeing me and my housemate build our SFF PCs. At the moment, he's really into building in the SGPC K39 due to it's really small size. My housemate and I have made a list of build suggestions for this friend...

    Log First SFF build - What could go wrong?

    I see. Glad that your GPU issues has been ironed out. But just to add my 2 cents on the higher pricing of Nvidia GPUs; one of the main reasons for that is due to Nvidia cards being not only good for gaming, but also for machine/deep learning. My current housemate is into that stuff, but recently...

    Log First SFF build - What could go wrong?

    Hmm, probably a case of bad batches as most other users reported theirs to be fine, although those posts are from last year. But will you exchange the GPU for an Nvidia now, or wait for the 3000 series cards to come out?

    Log First SFF build - What could go wrong?

    @Scytes hmm that's odd. Sapphire's Pulse RX 5700 XT is one of the best RX 5700 XT cards out there compared to other brands in terms of gaming performance, thermal performance, as well as price. This is based on the review of Hardware Unboxed and Gamers Nexus as well. I wonder if the store you...

    Discussion Suggestions of small ITX cases that could fit the Noctua NH-L12S?

    I'm currently using the MSI RX 5700 Mech OC GPU. At first I was thinking of going with the K39 simply because of it's really small size, and the Velka 3 case is pretty much a unicorn. But then down-sizing to the K39 requires me to get a new GPU, CPU cooler, and Flex ATX PSU. This is why I...
