Are the heatsink mounts not grounded?

Not small enough ;)

It only took a few days to adjust to the new layout and I much prefer it to my old 108 key now. I have the crkbd and the lady is so much more ergonomic. I actually just bought a kit to build another one with low profile switches for travel.

So I realized that waaay back when this thread was shiny and new I voted %60 as the smallest I would go... then a year later I went and built my first board: a %40 ;D So I've updated my vote!

This is probably an insane idea... but would it be possible to solder an extension or a pcie slot (bearing in mind that the wires would be reversed) to the back of a motherboard to make back to back gpu layout cleaner?

I bring my crkbd (40% split) to work all the time, no one else will touch it ;)

Unless it's a DX12 game that the developers included multi gpu support for (which is basically no games) you need sli to use two cards. However A) SLI is basically dead, not many games support it anymore and some games that don't support it will actually run worse. B) The 2060 does not support...

I wouldn't say that means all cables are out, my wife had to force pcie 2 with the shift's cable to get her pc to boot. I think it's just a poor quality cable. I tried using it with my mb and gpu and it booted but at pcie 3 x8, I had to go to pcie 2 to get all 16 lanes to work.

Probably better to ask in the discord, more likely to get a response. My guess would be that there technically are caps on the 12v rail, but they're there to support the buck converters. So technically it probably has filtering, just not sure how much.

Any pictures?

Dang, 4x4x4x4x is crazy. Now I want to see 4 way crossfire on itx ;D pcie gen4 means it probably wouldn't even bottleneck .

I ~really~ wanted to get a shapeoko or mpcnc, but I live in an apartment and would be worried about dust for my wife's sake and noise complaints. I'm hopeful I'll get a place where I can have a powered outdoor shed soon.

My wife's pc is in a phantek evolv shift which uses a pcie extension cable. for the past few months she's been having some issues, particularly during games or watching videos. 1) Her sound will randomly stop working (using audio over dvi to monitor) and will stay broken till a restart or...
