Time to cut out the panel vents and put a light mesh in their place :)

This looks awesome! Do you have more detailed specs? In particular, what GPU are we talking about here?

Yeah I saw that, unfortunately the 8GB version is not available at all anymore. And on that note, it seems like the 5600 XT ITX has also gone EOL. I had almost placed an order on this but decided to wait until after new year, hoping the price would drop. And now it's gone :/

Ohh that's a neat idea! I think I'll stick to getting bigger drives next, though. I've also layed eyes on the Velka 3 and there's no chance I'll get more than 3 SSDs into that one.

Thanks buddy, glad to be here! Yeah man, feels like forever ago. Actually, the only non-laptop PC I have is using a second-hand 300W SFX PSU 🙈 I do still have 4 Flex PSUs in my collection, though, and seeing what is available now really gets me exited :D Ahhh stahp, we have people way more...

Damn, the new Velka 3 looks awesome! I really like the idea of spacing the panels out to get quieter operation, that is super clever. Really looking forward to the release :)

Damn that card is interesting, but it seems the returns are really diminishing over the 5600 XT compared to the price and wattage upgrade. @rfarmer, could you edit the main post to add this info? This seems crucial to potential buyers. BTW, how long did it take to arrive for those who are...

Thanks! Haha no way, that exists?! That's awesome, I'll definitely have a look at that.

Gotta love System76, their philosophy seems to be the perfect blend between Open Source enthusiasm, engineering skill and design affinity. Loved the write-up and all the little details you pointed out. This is a lovely system.

Ahh I didn't even see that one before. Would be another huge upgrade over the 5500 for 100€. Very interesting. It seems one has to set the fan curve themselves, else the card will give of a burning smell under load, see this post, but apart from that, it looks quite good and could surely live in...

That's extremely useful info, thank you so much!

Yeah that's the hobby I've replaced PC building with. I really got into synthesizers during that time, I've even started to build a modular which is a whole new rabbit hole :D Yeah, still got my title on that one 😎 I'm actually super happy about the state of FlexATX ATM, FSP has two modular...

Oh lord I just found out about this, that is so cool! It seems to not be in stock currently, has anyone bought this? They also got two modular FlexATX PSUs the FlexGuru 250W and 300W now, which is awesome! Really clever that they put the control signals on a smaller connector, that saves just...

Meh, a lot of cases don't have a power symbol on their power button anymore, looks cleaner anyway. Yeah I saw the .step, can't wait to see the changes :) I was talking about the design files, though. .steps can be a bit hard to modify IMO. What software did you use to design this, anyway...

That would be great, thank you so much!
