    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    I can't see it. Says the channel doesn't exist or I don't have access?! Good. I'd rather wait and have a flawless unit than hurry and get it all scratched up. Besides, I'm waithing for zen5 (ryzen 9000) and blackwell (nvidia 5000) anyways. It's not like a pc builder can't assemble a case, so...

    Power Supply New Corsair platinum sfx psu sneak peaked

    Thanks for the link. Very interesting and it confirms that all the cables will be sleeved out the box. Also very interesting that the PSU uses molex micro fit connectors on the psu itself. I would love for ITX motherboards to have that as standard too (less wasted space). However, these PSU's...

    Power Supply New Corsair platinum sfx psu sneak peaked

    Hey everyone. If, like me, you are looking for a proper sfx (non L) psu that is efficient (platinum) and comes with the 6x2 GPU connector, Corsair might have something interesting on the way: https://x.com/CORSAIR/status/1798746843095925084 Hopefully this PSU will have the same sleeved...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    I love windows (temp glass) to my hardware, but with how hot gpu's are today, I think it was finally time to move on. I got the Moonstone S with handles and RGB for a little spice I have a black alu case now, and it just always looks dusty. The blue grey is very beautiful, but doesn't go with...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    Yeah, I don't want to hijack this thread, although potential builds are somewhat relevant. This particular board is a little different, afaik. One of the promontory chips are not used in extension, but rather for its signal booster. That would be the daughter board chipset that only connects to...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    Reason is that that board has 2x full speed USB4 connectors as well, so it's full on IO. This will help with thunderbolt kvm/dock making working with work laptop easier for future use. That being said, I am tempted to wait for zen5 and the ITX boards to follow with x690/x770 or whatever they...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    What a shame. 2 extra screw holes in the metal bars would make it possible for more flexibility. I'm specifically thinking about the ASUS ROG STRIX X670E-I which has a vertical daughter board with sata connectors sticking out to the side, right into the PSU:

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    I'm trying to figure out how to do a build before I buy the case. I think it was a horrible choice to put the fan/AIO radiator at the bottom of the case: It intakes air instead of exhausting heat. Pumps on AIO's will fill with air, resulting in noise and decreased lifespan. As far as I can...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    Very nerdy question for a potential mini mod. When installing the rubber feet, they stick out on the inside of the case with a sort of lip. I can see the front has a very tiny cutout for these lips to pass under when sliding out the shell. I wonder what is the clearance here? 1mm, 2mm?

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    Damn that blue grey looks so good. Idk. what to choose anymore. I'm still leaning towards moonstone, because it fits the black front better. I think you already said you would add more sCrews?

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    His problem is that he never reads the manuals or reviewers guides, so he always does the dumbest things as a result. I still watch his stuff, but a lot of these youtubers are surprisingly incompetent. At least Alex is competent enough to focus on the constructive criticism and turn a blind eye...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    I wonder how much the PCIe 4.0 risers costs in comparison to the new 5.0: https://linkup.one/pcie-5.0-riser-cable-Sept2023 (Of course I cannot guarantee they live up to the claim) Adt link has a semi gen 5 cable, but it's just on the edge, and given the issue with mjolnir, I don't see Alex...

    Completed MJOLNIR: The minimalistic – but not boring – 9.7L Case

    That's one tight fit. I do wonder if it would be possible to fit a full size fan with radiator under the GPU, if it used a 90 degree riser cable instead: (I know that one is too short, but in principle)

    It looks really nice! And I love the 2 sizes, so you can fit proper high end cards and watercooling in them. I really like the front too. I would have loved temp window panels though. Gotta show off that sweet hardware ;)
