Thank you for all the answers. I found a good deal on the elusive b760 deskmini and happen to still have my 12400T around. I decided to get this build going and now I have a tiny APU build which I use during weekdays when I only sit down for light gaming and webbrowsing before work. I like the...

I have so questions that might seem lame. There were some builds that featured a gpu connected with the Deskmini's motherboard via the backside M.2. Can that mobo really work like that? And most importantly how do you power this setup? The Deskmini comes with a 120w outer brick which is just...

I had an Gigabyte ITX 2060 Mini for about 5 years now. I can wholehartedly recommend it - it didn't let me down once. However out of the box, it had the issue of the fan turning off and on every 10 second as it balanced on the passive-mode thermail limit, but that got solved immediately with MSI...

Releasing these slim fans with the 3-way splitters together do suggest noctua's intention to have people mod their 4060 LP's for sure. As for the 80mm versions - many other manufacturers did it already, so no way noctua can't if they wanted.

I might switch the riser to 4.0 in the future - can someone tell me the proper length I need to go for here dpeending on the angles of the ports? Would highly appreciate any input:)

Cannot quit the Velka 3. Gaming in 4L is easier than ever with such nice ITX gpu options out there. My faithful noctuarized 2060 is getting some well deserved rest for now in it's box - I don't have the heart to part with it.

Awesome. At least here, it's what you see is what you get. Anyway, I'm still using my pcie 3.0 riser that came with the case - love that it's sleeved, high quality and it was perfect for my 2060. I wonder though, should I get a 4.0 here? Would that result in meaningful gains with this little card?

I did not know that it results in that. Seeing the other models, they have all their "teeth". Should I modify the BIOS settings accordingly? I vaguely remember that the pcie settings feature an 8x8 or x16 option. Is that something I should do here?

I got something interesting today. It's the Lenovo 4060 ITX. This is part of some Lenovo OEM's mostly released in China, but they seem to found their way to Europe. Someone bought one and since they intended to use it as an office pc without the need of graphical power outside of what's...

A new acc is not necessarily a reason for suspicion, but no photo of the products is a thing to be concerned about. (yet I would love to have a Lone L5)

Thanks. Didn't know these have an M.2 slot in the back as well. To be honest, there's a 4060 from Manli, that's little less than 150mm in length, so it can fit behind these small mobos with ease and could make something like a Velka 2. It would leave more space for the psu.

UNDERRAIL. It is insane just how much better his is compared to Fallout (even the isometric ones). The world itself, it's locations, the lore, the writing in this game is amazing. Also the gameplay mechanics are really well thought out and executed. The trap and stealth system is some of the...

I have a question - maybe it was explained and I just blinded it, but how do you connect that riser to the x600 mobo?

It's not good for these gpu's, due to them pushing their hot air down and being blocked by the already heated psu. Fine for blower cards though. The A24-v5 is still better due to having ventilation on both sides where the gpu exhales it's air.

Being a workstation card and with 16GB, it can't be 200$. But damn, this thing is very alluring. 50w TDP. Imagine having this card with a 12400T and your total system ticks around 100w having all that performance. I'm very interested in temps though as if it's too high with also heavy noise...
