I would not be surprised if Nvidia made Freesync not work over USB-C on purpose. I recall them not letting Freesync work on anything for more than a decade before giving us this much. Maybe I'm just cynical and Nvidia literally can't enable Freesync-over-HDMI, but Nvidia has a long history of...

Dang, it's been a while. Hey friends! Today I took a final exam, I didn't do any preparation but I think I actually did okay on it. After that, I got lunch with some classmates, came home, lost a bunch of time to Magic Arena (War of the Spark is a pretty awesome draft environment), and did some...

You definitely can work the heatsink. If it's not got any heat pipes, there isn't all that much risk involved. The only concern I would have is: this is a "passive cooler", but it definitely looks to me like it's designed to be used in a case with air circulation. But for whatever it's worth...

I think there are a few places you can shop for custom filters, this isn't the last place I was looking at, but a quick google led me to this place. It looks like they do custom, but they might also offer a stock size that's large enough for you to cut-and-stick like you were thinking.

My biggest criticism with the design as-is, which honestly I like its simple and "no nonsense" approach, is that you probably could fit a larger motherboard in here. Maybe without tweaking the layout very much, you could do a MATX board and multiple PCI cards, like a GPU taking up a single...

PC-IT, there's also PC-NT, but that didn't have any custom 3D printing, I don't think.

It looks like the cases are probably made by the same factory! One thing I gave some thought was looking more into a custom front panel like @confusis did with one of his smaller beige units. Other advantages of a custom front panel would be guaranteeing a larger GPU could fit (if I needed) and...

Here's the best my skillset could do to mock up a SAPPHIRE NITRO+ RX Vega64 in there. I was able to find good product pictures, and it's a big card. According to the dimensions, "~310mm" (not sure if that includes the PCI bracket) would definitely be a tight fit in a "340mm" case, (assuming...

I don't want to use an Nvidia card. ;)

Hey, Today I decided to kill some time digging through cheap ITX cases and I found what could be a cool, small vessel for an ITX motherboard and GPU. The APEX MI-008! At the moment, it sells for just under $40US on Newegg, I haven't looked anywhere else. The case is cheap enough that I'm...

I am not qualified to give you a certain answer, so definitely keep looking if you want to have confidence... but my understanding is that if your board supports bifurcation it should not matter what the two devices you're using are. I don't know whether bifurcation is able to split into more...

Today, I've been taking it easy. I'm trying to figure out the next steps on a few projects. I'm back in the US, and need to get a few things in order to become a functional person again. Trying to get some relatively easy-to-move furniture. Currently situated back with my parents in...

Excellent work! You should be proud of how it all came out, I'm so tempted to do the same thing myself!

I see that cà phê Coca-Cola! Are you in Vietnam? If so, where did you get your hardware from? If not, where did you get that Coke from? The build is looking great, I really like the custom front panel!

I don't know if I'm on the train of using such a small keyboard, but the layout makes a lot of sense to me. I've been heavily considering getting a numpad/Razer Gameboard thingy for my left hand for a while now. It makes more intuitive sense to move my non-mouse hand over to a secondary board...

Hey, I don't know a lot about proper/accurate emulation, but I am under the impression that adaptive sync--Freesync/G-Sync can allow a 'modern' display to emulate very accurately, similar to what it sounds like you're doing with your CRT. If you're concerned with thin/portability and aesthetic...

Hey guys, I'm starting to get the hang of farting around in SketchUp--it's pretty quirky. I'm enjoying improving at it, though. I have a few questions. I have only been using the "Workshop" search in SketchUp to find components, it seems kind of lacking in terms of modern hardware. Am I able...

So, my understanding of this is limited and I could be wrong, but here's my understanding.* PCI-E works in groupings of lanes, x1, x2, x4, x8, and x16. (Maybe x32 and beyond is technically a thing, but it doesn't really matter here.) When a motherboard manufacturer is designing a...

This would be once I get back to the US, not sure where in the US that would be.

I'm 6'0"/~183cm, a lot of (school) buses wouldn't let me stand upright after insulating the floor and ceiling with more than ~2" of insulation on both surfaces. Or, if they would, with any sort of decorative layer (tile/paneling/etc) it would be really cramped. In transit buses, this might not...
