    Discussion Stupid Ideas time....Modifying 10+ year old netbook

    ok, this is going to come across a little stupid, but its technically a SFF pc. I have an old netbook, Lenovo S10 which i think is dead, or battery is flat. Its very slow when it works and really not very good in todays day and age. What i was wondering with all the small gear today and the...

    Discussion Advice Needed. - Ryzen 5800x, Dan A4-H20 combo

    Hi guys, I was wanting to downsize my case a few litres to a Dan Case A4-H20 from a coolermaster NR200. My cpu is a 5800x which is a hard one to tame in the 18L case and i think my current 280mm Artic Liquid Freezer 2 is not really doing the job anymore as temps have just risen 5-8 degrees under...

    Discussion HELP - Need to find out if this is a legitimate RTX 3090

    this particular one is brand new still in the wrapped box. Just dirty cheap. I was wondering if the price could be lowered a little more maybe onecould look to water cool this (albeit never done liquid cooling outside an AIO) it looks like their A5000 or A6000 workstation card after doing some...

    Discussion HELP - Need to find out if this is a legitimate RTX 3090

    Hi guys, i was looking into some RTX 3090's and this one has appeared on a local marketplace, still in the box. BUT i can only see a reference to it on Aliexpress and a tear down in mandarin (i assume) . Has anyone seen this card before, know of any driver issues, or know anything about it? My...

    Completed DeskNano x300 - a 1.2L replacement for the DeskMini a300/x300

    This is a pretty cool little project mate, how do these systems go when using them? just similar to the 5600G/5700g etc on any other SFF build?

    Discussion Are there any SFF cases around 4-7L that use a SFX PSU and dont cost a fortune?

    Thats a nice case, although is it too big for me.... but looks perfect for the old man. Locally its 230 AUD. For me a forturne would be a velka as it is 150-190USD and with the poor aussie dollar that would be the equivilent of $250-300 AUD plus shipping. I got a A07 off Aliexpress for 70 AUD...

    Discussion Are there any SFF cases around 4-7L that use a SFX PSU and dont cost a fortune?

    Are there any SFF cases around 4-7L that use a SFX PSU and dont cost a fortune? My 4L build is annoying me with the IU flex PSU, goes nuts under minimal load. So was thinking that i would consider 5-6Ls to sneak a bigger PSU in there. Plus my dad wants a new PC and thinking i could go 2 as his...

    Discussion ADVICE - Undervolting Ryzen 5600

    i would be interested to know how the eco mode goes with gaming and if there is a dip in performance. also with my NR200 case and 5800x build, i found that using the PBO curve with a neg of 20-25 and a 280mm AIO i got those temps down to 78 deg

    Discussion ADVICE - Undervolting Ryzen 5600

    I gave it a go, got interesting results using the ECo mode and come to think of it, still have the PBO neg curve switched on... With the side panel on, the CB23 score was 9720, hitting a max temp of 73degrees, where one panel off was a higher 9836 and max temp of 66*c. As a comparison the...

    Discussion ADVICE - Undervolting Ryzen 5600

    yes, i think there are a few factors contributing to my temps, the air flow in the the case seems to be poor and maybe even doing the PBO curve may be making it run hotter and then there is the issue of it being a 4L case haha. I might flick on the eco mode and see how that effects performance...
