    CPU 12400 vs 12600K Power Limited to 65W - Any performance difference?

    Hey all, About to upgrade my SFF PC, and would like to keep the CPU PL'd at about 65W for thermals/acoustics. Has anybody in this space done any kind of testing to verify those two processors' (or equivalents) efficiency? If I can expect a decent performance uplift, I don't mind shelling out...

    Discussion Smallest case for Asus Noctua 3080?

    Hey all, Happy holidays to everyone! Quick question : looking for some ideas for a case for my 3080 Noctua edition. Currently in a Meshlicious but would like to go full air (currently using an AIO on the CPU). That, and frankly - I'm just not really into the looks of the Meshlicious. I've...

    Selling Sunmilo M01 15.6L Case - Sandwich (dual-rad!) AND M1-style layouts possible; Asus Z370-I

    Hello all, Selling what I thought was going to be my final case, but the allure of the really small T03 just got me back. =) (Using external radiators, that is...) With full respect to Ali of Optimum Tech, who believes the Meshlicious is the ITX case to beat in 2021, I have to respectfully...

    Motherboard Long/Short Power Package Duration on Z390I Aorus?

    Hey all, Just got a gigabyte Z390i Aorus Pro Wifi for a great price and playing around with it paired with a 9700k. My Asus B360-I has this nifty feature where I can set the long and short duration power package time limit, as well as the actual power limit for the long duration. I thought...

    Other What's on Taobao

    Man - really nice find, thanks for that! Huge fan of the combination of M1 layout and Ghost looks. And, mATX compatibility too... But what's the volume on that? Must be around 15L, at least...?

    Has anybody actually used this? I've been meaning to research this a bit more. I know that Taobao touts this service now on their web site when you visit, but I'm just not sure if it works well or what. Of course, for us plebes who don't speak Chinese, we'd constantly have to use Google...

    Selling ITX Cases : Silverstone FTZ-01, Sunmilo C01S with several aluminum side panel variations

    Hey all, First off, stamps : Selling two of my ITX cases today. First up : Silverstone FTZ-01 in silver. This is the version with the optical drive slot, therefore requires an SFX PSU. Excellent condition overall, with the slight exception that one of the (6!) screws that holds the GPU...

    Enclosure ZS-A4 V2 Owners - how the heck did you fit that chassis fan??

    Ah!! The HDD bracket on top of the fan?? Of course - so now those screws have something you screw into! Never thought of that! Makes sense now that you say it. I'll have to check it out but it makes intuitive sense. Thanks for that!!

    OK, got it - thanks. Yep, looks like same riser as the V2 (190mm).

    Thanks so much for pointing this out! Had no idea - and this is indeed very appealing. Question though : Does anybody know if this comes with a riser? I'm almost positive the one from my V2 would work, but I couldn't find any mention of this.

    Enclosure ZS-A4 V2 Owners - how the heck did you fit that chassis fan??

    I'll check it out, thanks. C01S. :). I'll post an album shortly, once I've figured out my best config. I'll also post a couple of PSA's in the meantime - like, Accelero III doesn't fit in the ZS-A4 V2, Accelero Twin Turbo doesn't fit in C01S, etc... :) Cheers!

    Enclosure ZS-A4 V2 Owners - how the heck did you fit that chassis fan??

    Oooh...is that a Deng I'm spotting in that photo...? =) Wonderful case. Yeah - I kinda thought about doing it exactly the way you described (2 screws to hold fan, 2 screws to hold bracket to case). The problem was that while the bracket was secure, the fan was only as secure as the screws...
