    Any NYC-based SFFers out there?

    Hi all- I'm Henry, a motion/UX/UI designer and fledgling product designer from Brooklyn. Just wondering if any of you guys are in the Tri-State or the city proper. Looking to share resources (specifically looking for a reasonable water jet fabricator in the city), tips, tricks, and possibly...

    Power Supply HDPLEX 160W DC-ATX direct plug

    My order just shipped! I guess I'll see soon enough how much better this unit is. On another note however, I'm wondering if I can pull 75W off the EPS 12V rail with a 4-6 pin Mini Fit Jr adapter. I'm using this solely for my GTX 1060 6GB/Akitio Node combo. The Node requires a second 6-Pin...

    HDPLEX PSU Questions

    Okay so I got some replies from Larry @ HDPLEX. The 1060 will push the limits of the 160W DC-DC, but should be okay.

    Power Supply HDPLEX 160W DC-ATX direct plug

    I just reached out to the HDPLEX guys and they confirmed the new 160W modular DC-DC unit will be released sometime around the beginning of May and will cost just $7 more than the existing unit. I just changed my order. Also in the works is a brand new 300W (or possibly 400W) DC-DC module, but...

    Power Supply HDPLEX 160W DC-ATX direct plug

    Can you confirm or deny that it will be released around the same time as this new 300W AC-DC, and at a similar price point? I just placed an order for the 300W AC-DC and the existing 160W DC-ATX...

    HDPLEX PSU Questions

    Hi SFFers- I just purchased the HDPLEX 300W AC-DC and 160W DC-DC PSU components, but just realized I should have asked a couple of questions here before pulling the trigger. I'm really looking to use this rig the "wrong way" which is to say there is no M/B to power, and I'm using the 160W DC-DC...

    Custom 19v/12v Flex PSU for thin ITX

    @Kmpkt any movement on this? I've got a niche looking for a scratch whereby I'm trying to build a Skull Canyon NUC + GTX 1060 (connected via TB3/Akitio Node or Thunder3 PCIe) system that I'm hoping to power via one beefy external brick. I'm going to house it in a half round t-slot AIO enclosure...

    Accessory Small 4K Monitor

    It's pretty solid, actually. More akin to the "Retina" experience in Mac OS. You'll simply never see pixels, ever. Even my Skull Canyon NUC with its seemingly wimpy Iris Pro P580 integrated graphics does a decent job in older titles when scaling. I'm using DP alternate mode over the TB3/USB-C...

    Accessory Small 4K Monitor

    I did some sleuthing, and it doesn't look like it supports the AUO B173ZAN01.0. I could be wrong, but you might want to check with the seller to make sure it has a 40-pin connector...

    Accessory Small 4K Monitor

    Technically yes. I don't know too much about the eDP standard, but I assume the difference in physical connections comes down to whether or not the backlight inverter is included alongside the eDP lanes. Some of these drivers use pinned connections and some use ribbon style (I'm no electrical...

    Accessory Small 4K Monitor

    Awesome! I bought a very simple driver for my panel, with DP only. Just make sure yours has a 40-pin eDP connector and cable (it looks like it does).
