Hello SFF.NETWORK! I'd like to discuss with you the concept of putting a PC based on Mini-ITX and AMD Ryzen APU [w/o dedicated graphics card] into one wodden drawer. > Drawer's inner space dimensions : (L350*W130*H170) mm There are 4 zones: 1> PSU : SFX form factor fits tightly into the...

Great stuff! This is a really neat build you've made. I find it very inspiring! Can you give some feedback how the passive cooling of the PSU does perform? Was this with the case's front panel acting as heatsink? One instant idea I had was to add the thermal pad also between the case's black...

So: I've ordered the mini-ITX board GIGABYTE B550I AORUS Pro AX to start with. Hope to talk to you guys soon in the "Builds" section!

I could imagine another use case where linear PSUs are good choice is instrumentation: interfacing analogue sensor for obtaining physical quantities. Neither use case is applicable in my case, I'll stick with conventional switching-mode options. Yes, I came across this recent NH-P1 model, and...

Nice call! That's what I was looking for. Thanks @Jace and @paulesko! It can wait, so this RYZEN 5 5600G seems to be much better deal with more cores, cache sizes, higher clock speeds at the same TDP as the RYZEN 5 3x00G # RAM I'll go for 32GB for some future headroom (VMs/containers). Yes...

The PSU NJ450-SXL by Silverstone is a great piece of electronics! For graphics, I was looking at this GeForce GT 1030 Silent Low Profile: https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1030SL-2GL#kf But why paying for another card if there are plenty of mainboards with iGPUs?

Hey people! I'm aiming for some low-power and noiseless build. It's at a concept stage still. Its two main use cases are 1) Workstation for coding running Linux build systems, and 2) Entertainment/media centre. Either a SFF case shall host the PC components, or I might integrate them into a...
