    Production SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case

    Can’t make out the measurements on those photos but would the 92mm Asetek AIO fit if a 120mm is too large without making modifications?

    Closed S4 Mini Classic + HDPlex 400W DC + Dell 330W

    Would you ship to Australia? Obviously for additional cost

    Completed S401: Salvo Studios <8L mITX Steel Unibody Chassis w/ GPU & CPU fans in same direction

    Oh man that's a shame, I was looking at eventually downsizing my SO's RGB build into my S401 and upgrading his GPU to an EVGA 2080 which will probably have the same bump. It's surprisingly hard to find nice looking cards that fit within the 2 slot restriction. Guess I'll either have to convince...

    Production Velka series cases for ultra compact and portable desktops

    Loving the new renders of the Velka 3, hoping international shipping won't be too high. The flexibility of the case is pretty cool. Would it be hard to add an option of having 2.5" drive brackets in the single slot GPU bay? So you could have say 4x 2.5" drives with an APU build. Not sure if I'd...

    AMD or Intel for ITX

    I’m an AMD CPU fanboy but I regret going AMD for my SFF build for 2 reasons: Intel sockets are fairly standard so it’s much easier to find CPU coolers for them. Sure you can go for the L9i/a or Cryorig C7 for AM4 but there are a lot of options you miss out on. Apparently even the black ridge...

    GPU Gigabyte RTX 2060 Mini ITX review

    Actually afterburner wouldn’t let me adjust the fan profile at all for this card. In order to test 100% load I had to download EVGA’s Precision tool instead. Maybe try that and see if it helps? I’d be super interested to see how your card/build performs too! I haven’t used the card for anything...

    GPU Gigabyte RTX 2060 Mini ITX review

    Alright, I checked the idle CPU temp when I got home again and it tends to idle around 37C, which seems a lot more reasonable. I've also updated the post above with some more photos of the underside of the PCB and some of the results from a Time Spy benchmark, at stock and after OCing.

    GPU Gigabyte RTX 2060 Mini ITX review

    It was definitely idling at 55C - remember my room temperature is around 30C with minimal circulation. Although I forgot to check the idle temps before benchmarking, 55C and 43C are what they appeared to stabilise as afterwards. I’m fairly certain that the CPU temp doesn’t go much higher under...

    GPU Gigabyte RTX 2060 Mini ITX review

    I couldn't find much information about this card when I was looking into ordering it, figured I'd try to spread the word a bit in case other people are looking at ITX sized RTX cards. First up, I haven't written a review of this kind before, and I definitely don't have all the fancy tools that...

    Closed [AU] Trading i7-8700T + $$ for 8700k/9700k

    In case anyone’s interested in doing a low power build - I have one available. Photos coming soon. This will be in use until trade happens, not urgently looking to upgrade. My 8700T + $250/300 AUD for an 8700k/9700k respectively. Would also consider offers for 8700. Each pay their own shipping...

    Selling Misc old ITX bits [AU]

    Also have some ITX parts from an old build. Had everything for a complete PC but the motherboard died so I've been selling everything off. Below are what is available, prices in AUD and excluding shipping. I don't mind shipping internationally for the smaller items but expect shipping to cost...

    Closed NFC S4M-C (AU)

    Skyreach S4 mini or the classic with the wrap around bezel? I’m only interested in classic at this stage.

    Completed S401: Salvo Studios <8L mITX Steel Unibody Chassis w/ GPU & CPU fans in same direction

    Even if there is a slight issue with the case, which I don’t believe there is, I wouldn’t accept your offer. I bought this during your Christmas sale and I know you’ve already lost money on it without also shipping another chassis to Australia. Also you included an extra 60mm fan in my order...

    Completed S401: Salvo Studios <8L mITX Steel Unibody Chassis w/ GPU & CPU fans in same direction

    I tried loosening the bracket on the GPU and the riser and I couldn't get it to fit unless I removed the screws from the riser completely, so I've done that for in the meantime. It's solid enough for now, have everything inside and using it to write this post. Loving the size :) The power...

    Completed S401: Salvo Studios <8L mITX Steel Unibody Chassis w/ GPU & CPU fans in same direction

    I’ll try those suggestions, thanks. The GPU is an OEM GTX 1060 3GB which came from a HP Omen Accelerator eGPU so it’s kind of a special case, my main concern is that I won’t be able to install a triple fan Gigabyte RTX which I’m going to upgrade to when I have the funds for the full black...
