    Accessory Portable SFF monitors?

    Hi Guys I am after some advice, I’ve reached a stage where I am likely to be in hospital a lot or bedridden and so am looking at a monitor, suitable for SFF/ITX most likely a deskmini 2400G as I have the parts sat there. So probably a 12v/12 “ portable type, resolution really 1080p I think...

    News ASRock DeskMini GTX Z390

    Well it arrived and it’s a standard H310M-STX. So the Intel Deskmini. You could tell before opening it as the box isn’t big enough given the extra space a MXM would take up. For £160 it would be a bit overpriced in the UK and of course I have a F model CPU on the way so it isn’t even as if I...

    And I cant have any AMD CPU in there, in my excitement (and really I have always tended to mild AMD fan boi) I ran away from myself. What I can have is six cores in there, six i5 cores. And if I can also have a 1060 then I can have 1080p consistently on high settings. And that for me is...

    And I cant get my head around a 1060 still goes for at least £150 used. Maybe it is some way of getting rid of old stock but then that is Nvidia old stock on a AMD platform. You hink if anything AMD would be sticking their dGPU on there not using Nvidia to do them a solid.

    Motherboard ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac ITX Motherboard for AMD AM4 CPUs

    The ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac ITX Motherboard for AMD AM4 CPUs seems to keep its price wel, even used, and I was wondering why? I would have thought the 4XXX series would have taken over since R1 will run OK on them, and indeed most R1 MB seem to not hold their price (or have been...

    If you fit an Athlon then you don’t have enough PCIe lanes so one M.2 drops to PCIe Gen3 x2 IiRC.

    Prebuilt [SFFn] ASRock's DeskMini A300 - Finally!

    Well I have this on order supposedly coming next week, for £160. Looking at the As-Rock website it has suppliers in the UK as well although I don’t see any stock, probably would have to ask to order. Mine came from On.Buy.Com who I hadn’t heard of before. If I get a 1060 with it I’ll be very...

    There was never a big problem with storage as you got 2 M.2 and 2 SATA with the AMD A300, my point is it seems to cost three times the price but I am not clear why? You are getting what looks like a larger board with an MMX capability. But then an ITX board is a larger board with PCIe...

    News ASRock DeskMini GTX Z390

    Am I right in saying that this just gives me a graphics capability, I have to find a MMX graphics card to use it, and there is some extra M.2? How much storage do I get exactly? I ask as even though it is nice it is also very expensive for what is really just a graphics card slot? I would be...

    Hobbiest 3D printing/CNC/Vinyl on a budget advice

    Well I have a vinyl plotter/cutter. I was browsing Facebook marketplace when I come across a relatively popular (being sold on eBay it must be said) version. List on eBay is around £250, the vendor wanted £200, I paid £100. They were desirous of a quick sale, based on the smell of cannabis in...

    Great price, I am going to get a 2700X I think, to upgrade from a 1600. I have a 470 MB ready MSI GAming Plus (ATX!). The 1600 will get reused in a SFF- and they retail in the UK at about the same as you are paying for the 2600 which is about £20 more expensive. I'm waiting for Black...
