    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    You couldn't get video with any operating system? You probably needed to turn CSM on with stock VBIOS -- and Windows will not boot with CSM set to something different than it was when it was installed. I went back in the thread, and that's my best guess, anyway... 8 days of daily use in, and...

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    This looks like it is working. I'm ecstatic. I've re-installed Windows with CSM off and have better sensor (temperature, power, etc) support outside of AMD's drivers now. The fan curve is better because it's actually made for this size card. Settings I save like AMD tuning persists reboots. And...

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    Just checking in to see if anyone ever heard back from Powercolor on this one regarding an updated VBIOS? Kind of a disappointment, will probably have to sell the card if they can't fix GOP issue.

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    Since flashing the VBIOS, I have to completely shut off GPU acceleration in Google Chrome (or Chrome-based browsers) or it opens to a black screen. I've also tweaked the fan curve to have it run a bit cooler as I noticed it at pretty high temperatures at what should've been relatively close to...

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    Got it and installed; very happy with it with the exception that I'm noticing weird system lock ups when coming back from sleep (consistently) and when viewing GPU accelerated video (has happened twice now); no issues in gaming. Not sure if this is some other configuration issue (doubtful as it...

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    I'm very software-technical (programmer for a living) but not familiar with BIOS flashing; does the fact that, for example, the Sapphire Pulse has 2 power connectors versus 1 in the PowerColor ITX not influence the VBIOS you're flashing? Assuming you don't face any issues in the meantime, and...

    News PowerColor RX 5700 ITX

    I've received the card, but I won't be home to give it a whirl until Friday night... the suspense is killing me. Not excited to see what that means for the dual-boot hackintosh I planned to put this in; hopefully it's okay. I've been having trouble finding anything about this attached to...

    Well that's concerning... hopefully I have better luck, I'll keep you posted!

    Any luck? I just ordered one to the USA, should be here in a week and am curious.

    Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

    I had an issue with the panels not sitting flush due to the layout of the case. You can remove & reattach portions of the frame to get the case to be more square, after that my panels are now flush and I can only imagine this is the same issue. Something that worked for me was reinstalling...

    Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

    Got mine today, can't wait to put it to together. Was able to unpackage and review the materials. Without actual assembly, my impression of the build quality exceeded my expectations. However the white unit I received had minor dust/dirt in a couple of spots on the side panels and front panel...

    Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

    Is there a greater risk associated with ordering the Ghost S1 cables for the Steck if just for PCIE, CPU and 24 pin, i.e. if the cables don't fit, will replacement still be available? I would understand if that's not the case considering it is jumping the gun quite a bit but am curious if I can...

    Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

    I would like to know as well. Unless they are, it seems to me like orders to US are delayed ~1 week (arrive in LA by end of April instead of 3rd week), which I was able to find on their Twitter. Not bad considering they said shipments would at best be arriving this week. But I could be...

    Production Nouvolo Steck - SFF 8.7-11.2L ITX PC Case, supports liquid cooling

    I have just checked my order status and there are no updates from my Mar 26 pre-order other than it is confirmed (same as in March). When can an update be expected? Is this normal for US shipments?
