Gosh that's so cool. I built a few PCs back around 2009 or so with passive GPUs

oldie but I never posted it, maybe the size helps with some more modern cards too. NCASE M1 v1 modified with v6 panels and front I/O (USB-C). ASUS TUF 3070ti GPU. Had to make a cut in the sheet metal to fit. https://photos.app.******/ChhxgK6S5bSvwb9f7

That 750w unit is BEAST

It just sticks out the back of the Pure-X!

What's new? I guess you have some plugin units besides the PicoPSU 160xt and there are the couple new Meanwell AC/DC units, but that's it?

New Meanwell 4x2 and 5x3 PSUs! Now up to 300w in the 4x2 form factor and 600w in the 5x3 form factor! https://www.meanwell.com/newsInfo.aspx?c=1&i=1286 And https://www.meanwell.com/newsInfo.aspx?c=1&i=1303 Hat tip to @kubinek17 for using one in his build, hadnt heard of them before:

Wow! Also that LOF PSU is neat, they have a 750w unit that fits in the 3"x5" (127 x 76 x 43 mm) footprint. Smaller than a FlexATX PSU.

Thanks, been wondering about the radio silence. Ended up stuffing a Hdplex 250w into the Pure X I've got, but would have loved one of those One2 200w units otherwise

Good to hear from you, hope your well. Very satisficed V1 user here from the original Hardforum batch all these years later. Recently updated to the newer front panel with USB-C and the side panel with better ventilation.

Does the V1 top with ODD fit? If so I've got one in silver id send you for cost of shipping

Upgrading the GPU is the low hanging fruit here. I upgraded from a Vega64 to a RTX 3070ti and it was huge.

Is there a way to buy this not on Taobao? Nice to see a case in this form factor.

To followup on my saga of blanking screen a replacement 4060LP didn't fix it either. Doing a search on my 4k TV I learned there is a problem with a 48gbps HDMI 2.1 connection. I used CRU to reduce the bandwidth to 40gbps and all the flickering/blanking stopped! From what I can tell 40gbps is...

Yeah I even just reduced power with msi afterburner and it's still happening.

Direct to TV. Both cables are "48gps 8k HDMI 2.1" from different brands so they should be able to do 4k/120hz no problem. Previous GPU using same cable didn't have any issues (though it was HDMI 2.0, 1440p/120hz) Reducing resolution or refresh rate does NOT eliminate dropouts.
