Next upgrade is waiting dutifully in its box - and thus, a bit of a turn into a different direction, ie. now this is going to be more than just a music / multimedia server + surf station: An Asus Phoenix RTX 3050. The M2000M in my P50 recently started to drop nearly 1000 frames during my last...

Yes! Was already wondering why nobody mentioned it yet. Its the one I've been pondering to get (in black). 😍 Originally planned to go for AMD, because the Linux support is much better, but on the other hand, all the effort involved to get it to behave ... ugh. 😅 😱 cu, w0lf.

Update on temps (now pimped with side intake): Idle - 29 C Full Load - 62 C Thats 7 C less than my original main system (which is mentioned in parts above) :) cu, w0lf.

On further research, the original plan with putting the GPU on the mainboard side, might actually be doable. But for a full custom loop only. The advantage: go for a 280 mm radiator, a 200 x 200, or maybe even 2x 240 mm side-by-sides :) GPU is either going to be an RTX 3080 (Ti) or RX 7900 XT...

If you dont care that its not strictly ITX, you may get lucky with the ASUS Prime AP101 (also see thread here on the forum) :) cu, w0lf.

Notice: The two sets of identical fan .. brackets? is, that if you did things right, you can immediatedly switch bottom and top, if you want to do "the flip" (of the i/o, which works identical to the NR200). Also, the new second case arrived. Just took out the SFX PSU cage, and am in the...

Already arrived at Geizhals: https://geizhals.de/?cat=ramddr3&xf=1454_49152%7E15903_DDR5

Toot over at my mastodon account with 4 selected images, adding 3 more fans: https://kosmos.social/@ginsterbusch/109950556673036327 Probably gonna turn it into a thread and drop a few more pictures, too.

Re: Pictures of build - Just dropped a few photos of my build onto my masto account. There may be some more toots in the next few days, too: https://kosmos.social/@ginsterbusch/109950556673036327 I'm building a NAS / music server / surf station, with a mATX board. Thus, mostly slim 120 mm fans...

And fast forward another week: Been building the NAS / media server last weekend. System is up and running (quick test with MX Linux Live usb drive), temps look good, and now I'm in the process of ordering a few more parts, including lots of slim fans, because the regular Kaze Flex RGB are a...

Note: FSP also has a version of this, with the advantage of having the solid steel plate front replaced with a mesh panel, buts its gone from geizhals for now: FSP CST350 Plus cu, w0lf.

Building my Server / NAS / sleep music sound system rn .. doing shots every odd minute, there is gonna be plenty. cu, w0lf.

Don't know if this was mentioned yet: L91 did a review on this PSU on his YT channel, which also compares it with the SF750, and shows that the 850R is much quieter even under higher load: ‎Corsair SF750 Dethroned? SilverStone Extreme 850R SFX Review cu, w0lf.

L91 did a review on his YT channel: cu, w0lf.

Then maybe replace the heat sink with something like the be quiet! MC1 Pro. Less bending, still good cooling :) cu, w0lf.
