    Best type of case for airflow?

    I see, I got the 8700 delidded because of the build its in now. So that should be cool in the new and bigger case. Guess I'll just have to see about that gfx mini I bought while gaming. Then take action after! Thanks for the build tip!! Also about that fan filter. Will toss it out asap :) I...

    Best type of case for airflow?

    THANK you for the pics, looks great! I don't know about the temps in bigger cases, I just tasted the heat in my micro build. Guess I'm better of with a tower cooler in the new case. But I would like to try the big heatsink without a fan when my hardware arrives. My first plan was to have a...

    Best type of case for airflow?

    Nice to have a good idea of what it actually can handle! That's the case I'm hottest for. Do you think my cpu can stay in good temps without the fan from a big tower cooler aslo - 8700 runs hot!? Havent heard about psu staying passive before, but one of the reasons why I'm looking for atx...

    ITX build for music

    I produce music and I have almost identical hardware in my setup. I used streacom f1c, look at my profile to see my build post. I had to mod the top for the heat to get out, but it turned out perfect ??

    Motherboard Asus z370 strix-I m.2 question?

    I'm in a very small case, a mod of streacom f1c evo. So I really have no space for a drive. That's why it has to be m.2 ☺ But maybe it could be a good idea to buy a cheaper m.2 drive from another brand to get more gigabytes?! It is only storage...

    Motherboard Asus z370 strix-I m.2 question?

    Thank you! So if I buy one like this, it would be fine? https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/ssd-970-evo-nvme-m-2-1tb-mz-v7e1t0bw/ And what about power ? Do these use alot? Note that the second is only for storage.

    Motherboard Asus z370 strix-I m.2 question?

    Hey guys , as the title says. I have this motherboard, and I already have a Samsung 960 installed. There is one more m.2 slot on the bottom of the motherboard, where I'm thinking of putting an extra hdd. Can I just buy the 970 evo and put that in there, or Is there anything I need to be aware of?

    This was new to me :) - Do you or anyone know the difference from BGA to normal? I know my "ish" is not the same as their case. Sizes are pretty close tho, so any cooling solutions is very limited. And thats why i ask in the first place - I would love some new options to test with my mini case.

    Other Apple Announces Mac Mini Refresh

    Love the design and the idea, but this can't cool the i5 and the i7 cpu enough. At least I don't believe it! I have the i7 8700 cpu in my streacom (Mac mini ish design) case. I have not been apple to find a solution to keep a lit on the case without alot of holes. I even delid and made a little...
