Do you have a name or link of this PSU? I have the HDPlex 250w, but if there's something smaller I'd be interested. Thanks!

Hi Everyone, I run my Velka 3 with the motherboard side panel off (picture here). On my current setup, that side of the computer isn't visible. I'm running a 5600X3D and a Noctua L9a...which does ok job, but I limit the power to cut down on fan noise most of the time. Can anyone recommend a...

No case fans, I'm honestly not even sure where I'd fit them. The turbulence of the Noctua l9a against the case panel did bother me, so I just run without that side attached, and have magnetic mesh that I take off when needed. Looks fairly good, like it's supposed to be there in the first place...

The 4060 is great. Maxes out around 72°c when gaming, and around 110w, sometimes a bit lower depending on game. Fan isn't bad at all, but I do use afterburner to set idle fan at 30%, which it's only audible if your ear is close by. The card isn't super powerful, but at 110w I'm extremely impressed.

Sure, here's one. On the top right of the PSU I have one screw and bolt holding it in place. I have the sides covered with magnetic mesh (that's why there are magnets) normally. Would like an adapter plate for an HDPLEX on the Velka 3, but since I can't see the back on my setup it doesn't bother...

Yes, good advice. I happen to have a 5600X3D, but I limit it to around 80w and my 4060 solo only hit 110w at max. PSU gets hot to the touch, but that's expected, and heat is dissipated through the chassis or a fan (if you've got one moving air across it somehow).

I ended up going with the HDPLEX GaN in the Velka 3. It's not a perfect fit but it's great not having any PSU fan noise.

I'd think on plan 1 the 5500 would be perfectly adequate for the 6400, and probably a better option than getting a 5700G. Depending on your budget, that'd be a capable system for the price since you can reuse some of your parts.

Oh, wow. I've wondered if that was a legit site or not.

Haha. Are you in the U.S.? I was trying to look for a 4060ti Single fan but couldn't find one.

Is that a DC metro SmartTrip card? lol

Hi Everyone, just posting some pictures of my new build. It's been quite a while since I've built a PC, and the Velka 3 taught me just how unforgiving building in a SFF is. I have a 5600X3D and Zotac 4060 solo in here. Temperatures seem to be hovering around 47 degrees at idle with the Noctua...

Thanks for the help. The riser included with the case was a gen 4, and I had to really be careful when installing to not break any of the connections. I didn't have a single mm to spare at the end 😃

Hi Everyone, I'll expose my total ineptitude in figuring this one out. I can't figure out an orientation of the PCI riser cable in the Velka 3 that doesn't cover the CPU fan. What am I doing wrong? Pictures here Edit: If I go underneath I'd need to bend and probably break the riser. Edit 2: I...

With the newest revision of the Velka 3, does anyone know if the 250w HDPLEX fits? Considering that now that it's back in stock in the US.
