    BIOS questions

    Feedback on first sff build

    Hi I'm coming from an matx build. I never liked ATX towers but after using matx for a bit, I find it is still too large for my tastes. In addition, I find as I use my rig more and more I care less and less about the internal aesthetics (lighting mostly) and care more for small, portable and...

    Power Supply HDPLEX 160W DC-DC unit shutting down

    So, as said in the title (I'm running an RX 570 Pulse ITX with it, and a Dell 230W power brick), whenever I try to run Folding@Home or any benchmark, the DC-DC unit shuts down for whatever reason. Is it just Folding@Home being bad, or is it something to do with the power supply?
