Ended up doing the same. Found the S1 on amazon and decided to go with it while waiting to get my hands on one of these. Did you have any issues with color matching of the panels?

Interesting. I would often have issues with my GPU during gaming sessions. I would try plugging your monitor directly into you board and disconnect your GPU. See if you get any random spikes during normal tasks. Just as something to try. I would also be interested to know if the riser cable is...

Thank you for this. Very helpful!! I agree this should be stocked if not already. Curious to know if you’d be willing to add VRM specs for the boards. Definitely something I take into account.

Hey ZakKa89, Sorry to hear about everything going on with your first build. When you experience the lag spikes are you checking to see your CPU activity/temps, or just during stress testing? EDIT: tacking onto what tinyitx has stated below. Check to see what’s being potentially hit the...

Konnichiwa Aaron!! How was it building in Japan? I only ever shopped at Yodabashi or Bic Camera. Wish I got around to trying to find smaller shops.

Nice!! I ended up falling out of touch with IT work and got more into Web Development and Design. Although, it is by far the main reason why my passion for pc building is still with me. I still remember "trying" to help a neighbor out with her Windows ME PC...? It is also a handy skill when (I...

Thanks for the breakdown!! I need to look more into TaoBao it seems hehe. Was reading up on this a bit more and it's interesting as I thought Motif was the first, but it seems more people saw the J1 first. If I get one, I definitely want to watercool it hehe.

Dope!! The hadron is a nice chassis!! Love that you reused parts from old builds and got them up and running in something cool! Funny enough, after my first 970 with an ITX board, I moved up to an mATX board but never ran SLI, and thus I moved back down.

I will admit that I really disliked this case when it first launched. I ended up seeing a mod online that changed my mind completely. Manta S2 by Mp5mafia I just remember the thermals being a bit tough on the top rad of my build. Skylake was the hotness indeed hehe.

Welcome. I’m new around here as well, but definitely looking to get back into OCing.

Awesome!! Yea I’ve was shopping around for nice open air chassis and thought about going with the YuelBeast Monument Motif. I’ve seen some copies online as well. Which I also like, but I cringe with how dusty my office gets lol.

I liked my 250D. I had the biggest brother as well, the 900D. The sharp lines made it such a badass little case. The DanCase is looking tempting. Along with the FormD T1. Funny, I was also eyeing up the node 202, but that Salvo S401 is looking even more tempting.

Curious, how was the MCSE test? I was going for my first MCP back in ‘05. Glad I did, finding out that you’ve gotta renew your A+ and Net+ every 3 years made me glad to have gotten it out of the way. I ended up running Server 2003 on my shuttle for far too long lol.

Oh yea I remember the days of buying all of those extra cards. Going from a 56k card to an ethernet card when DSL came into the home. How do you like the BC1? It’s such a great design and concept to have everything in one.

Very awesome and clean setup. Also, I didn't know that it got rebranded. Remembering the days when PSU's were up top. Kinda rare to see these days.
