Thanks for the info! Any idea if an DC-DC convertor like the picoPSU XT-160 will amplify the ripple further? I’m assuming the 12V will not be greatly affected, but not sure how the ICs on the picoPSU will crosstalk back with the MW. Currently have an -96mV undervolt on an RX5700 with SGX-450 and...

Wow, totally forgot about output stability, thanks! According to the datasheet: RPS-500-12 = 200mV (peak to peak) RPS-400-12 = 120mV (peak to peak) RPS-200-12 = 100mV (peak to peak) Meanwhile, something like the SilverStone Nightjar NJ450-SXL gets 26mV ripple at 12V 90% load and 45°C ambient...

Yes, custom case, not 100% decided on the layout, but a custom PSU will be necessary. Vertical builds like the H1 have become popular lately, but I have already did a 280CLC 12L tower and other vertical builds. With a custom PSU like this I have the option between a 10L H1 layout or a 6L A4...

Yeah, there are many options like the Nightjar SFX-L from SilverStone, but it will take too much space and it will be wasted since this is not truly a fanless build. An RPS-500 + PicoPSU solution will take less space and I will not have to deal with all the cables. I prefer soldering a few wires...

Thanks for the sanity check! Upon further research I found the RPS-500-12-C which costs less than 2xRPS-200 and does not take twice the volume, even shorter than an FlexATX PSU. Rated at 320W with convection cooling it should have no issues with a 140mm fan spinning at 500RPM blowing air over it.

I'm using an undervolted 5700 (non XT) for the GPU, R5 3600 for CPU, no overclock and nothing high power, last time I checked the whole system was drawing 260W under stress test. Thinking of not using a riser and going with the M1 layout style with some modifications and main reason for going...

Planning on using two MW RPS-200-12-C for a water cooling build, not the most compact at about 9~10L with 280 radiator support. The power supplies will sit under the radiator fans and be cooled that way. Layout: 1x RPS-200 +12V -> picoPSU -> board + CPU 2x ground -12V -> picoPSU + GPU 1x...

Because the rails are meant to be modular and be moved alongside the extrusions like on the Streacom DA2, If I shaved the extrusion then the rails will have a fixed position and prevent me from upgrading the chassis in the future. Also, the extrusions are more expensive than the rail and if I...

This is the bracket used to hold the GPU and legs/handles makerbeam.com Only used 5x L shaped brackets and 2x 90 degree ones holding the IEC power inlet, the rest are corner cubes holding the extrusions in place.

Made a build guide for this case.

Power button is at the base of the PCI-E bracket, just a small black PTM button.

Hi, made another case using makerbeam extrusions, this time I enclosed everything in mesh panels and used slotted mini DIN rail to attach the components. Mesh panel and DIN rail is gripped inside the extrusion grooves and tightened by the corner cubes. Extrusions are standard length and tapped...

Yeah, this is not for the faint of heart.? I did not have any issues with wires since I tie them together at the back with a velcro strap, but there are other concerns like children or pets getting curious.

Thanks, I have uploaded a screenshot of the cart contents with pricing.

Hi everyone, I've been in the shadow on the forum for a long time and this is my first thread here. Just want to share my design with all of you. This frame is made using 10mm MakerBeam extrusion profiles, the profiles are of fixed length and tapped at both ends. The assembly process is easy...
