    Best option for a SSD ?

    Concerning the M.2 temps, I made a post recently about how I got my temps under control. Yes, you need thermal pads, but they totally work.

    Some questions for a new DAN A4-SFX build

    The Noctua L9a (with fan duct) can definitely handle the 3700x, however if you are benchmarking and gaming heavily the temps will go above 70c. I regularly hit 90c while benchmarking, but it never went above that, and never thermal throttled. The Cryorig C7Cu is probably the best you can buy...

    NVDIA GPU Compatibility List

    I can also confirm that it fits and I have not experienced any turbulence. I've only noticed what I would call normal fan noise, no vibrating or whistling. Something to note though for other people considering the MSI GTX 1660 ti Gaming X and a Dan Case A4, is that it just BARELY fits. I had to...

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    Yeah it was misaligned and I had to remove the IO shield entirely. Since this hardware is only temporary in this case It's not a big deal to me. I will be putting some better hardware with the noctua l9a-am4 in at a later date.

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    I purchased some longer screws and was able to mount the motherboard. Success! Now I need to remove some extra cables from the power supply and find a way to route the cables, but it looks like I will be able to do it. @VELKASE Michael I have an ASRock Z97E-ITX/ac

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    @VELKASE Michael Thank you for your quick reply. I haven't decided whether to return the case or not yet, I will contact you privately with a few ideas I have that may resolve the issue. Concerning clearance issues with the motherboard itself, I do not believe there will be any problems. I...

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    I received my Velka M today and was very excited to move my current hardware over to it. The case was in good shape and was well packed with no shipping damage apparent. I began to follow the instructions but encountered an issue when I went to mount the motherboard to the middle panel. I had...

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    I've changed my mind and going to go with the Velka 3 when it comes out. I'm going to try the Enhance 7660b power supply as I've read that it is very quiet. Any rough idea on it's availability date? Next few months? This year? Concerning the Velka M, is it compatible with the MSI GTX 1070 Aero...

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    Just want to say that I really like this case. I'm looking forward to your Velka 5, as I would like to keep using my SF600. Keep up the good work!

    Metallicgear neo mini build

    I've been looking at this case as well, and I really like the way it looks. The one area I'm concerned about is how good the airflow is.

    Production Sliger SM550/560/570/580 (2 and 3 slot riser layouts, with air and liquid cooling variants)

    I do like my hybrid but I also want to get as small of a case as i can get with it still being quiet. I think this one will do the trick.

    Production Sliger SM550/560/570/580 (2 and 3 slot riser layouts, with air and liquid cooling variants)

    I really REALLY like this case. Fantastic job on it, once it's available and I've swapped graphics cards (I have a hybrid now) I am buying this. I've been looking for a really small case that could handle the wider graphics cards.

    Power Supply Flex ATX PSU help!

    Sorry for the late reply, but yes I am planning on building in the 4.5L Custom Mod Flex Mini. I've been doing a lot of research on Flex ATX power supplies and came across a video (from Custom Mod funny enough) showing a mod to the FSP 500 platinum. I assume the gold will have the same fan...

    Power Supply Flex ATX PSU help!

    I am going to be doing a build over the next year or so with a flex atx power supply as well. The best one I found was this one. Notice that you can choose it at 400 or 500 watt with a Noctua fan. I'd love to use this one but sadly the custom work on it makes it too long (170mm) for the case I...
