    Stalled [New Video Assembly] Densium 4 & 4+ - Tiny cases with real hardwood frontpanel!

    Great to see a case with proper hdplex gan support. The upcoming APU version looks almost perfect. Would love to see a more portable version with just GaN and LP cooler support down the line, like the plus version but minus... Also had a question, what's the weight of these cases? Couldn't find...

    Power Supply HDPLEX 250W GaN Passive AIO

    Oh, shame, never seen a skyreach in stock or at a reasonable price. Good to see GaN becoming a thing though. Hope to see a fanless flex option soon

    Power Supply HDPLEX 250W GaN Passive AIO

    Can this be used in cases made for flex psus? I don't see anything about an adapter. If not, what are some of the smallest, actually available cases it's compatible with?

    Concept 3.69L Smol X1 Mini. Smallest case in the world to house a Flex ATX PSU and175mm dual slot GPU. Everything's internal, no external powerbrick.

    Looks slick but PSU and cables blocking most of the exhaust is a little concerning, so would love to see some temps when possible. Also curious if there's fan turbulance with something like L9a. Will keep an eye on this.

    Power Supply Enhance ENP-7660B Noctua V Stock Fan

    Is it possible to do a noise test at various loads? I saw a youtuber try the stock 600w version and it was a lot louder than expected. Timestamped link: I don't know why he tried putting an i9 in a Velka 3 but he did show it only draws 95w in Cinebench. The card is a 200w 3060.

    Concept Purely Integrated Graphics Case

    Every time I try going this route the internal PSU options are always sold out, overpriced, or too loud. Would definitely be interested in picking one up if that problem can be solved.

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    Really liking the new look for the Velka 3 and concerning switching to it, but wondering why the PSU was moved to the top. Seems like it would block natural airflow. Are there any CPU temperature benchmarks? Running 3700x with NH-L9 but anything will do. Also curious about a back mounted NVME...

    What are the odds of a 2.2 slot EVGA card fitting? Would it cause fan turbulence? 3060 Ti FTW3: https://images.evga.com/products/gallery/png/08G-P5-3667-KR_XL_4.png

    The updated design looks more utilitarian than sleek to me, in which case I'd prefer some tiny washers/extensions for the prongs on the stock panels. Hopefully much cheaper and easier to ship too

    Spacer looks like a great compromise for situations where a card doesn't even have a 2 slot version, which is sadly becoming a thing

    DAN A4-SFX v4.1

    For any V4+ owners whose motherboard doesn't have a USB C header, here's a cleaner and cheaper solution than the one linked on the official site: Can confirm it fits and works just fine on Gigabyte Aorus Pro WiFi.

    DAN A4-SFX v4.1

    I use 3700X with L9a in a hot environment and idle temps are 50C, gaming/load rarely exceeds 60C but I have turbo disabled. If it's enabled you'll go over 80C. The difference is 400MHz which I don't think is worth the extra wear or noise. If you use a fan duct it might be better but I've yet to...

    Been using this case for around 8 months now and wanted to share some thoughts on what works or doesn't.

    Some temps for the 3700X (boost disabled) with L9a, extra exhaust fan and cardboard shroud: Idle/light work: 40~45C Gaming: 50~55C Prime95: 60C (80C+ with boost enabled) Running it with boost enabled can cause extreme temp jumps during light workloads, which I didn't like. With the gimped...

    Custom fan duct... cardboard and electrical tape. Not much time for testing yet. Later I'd like to try the following and see if there's any difference. For stock 3700X: - L9a only - L9a + A9x14 (exhaust) - L9a + ghetto duct + A9x14 (exhaust) - L9a + ghetto duct + A9x14 (exhaust) [case upside down]
