This is yet another more or less mobile pc type project of which there a few now. The goal is to build an easily upgradeable laptop/portable pc suitable for running a virtual machine with gpu passthrough. Total power target is around 400W. This one is more of feasibility test or tech...

Linus had a video on this a while back that exposed this to a wider audience, and it looks like the same seller now has 10th gen options so I'm curious if anyone has played with one of these yet (any generation)? Apparently they provide a modded BIOS for your specific board (if compatible) so...

I was looking into buying a NAS and was surprised how bulky they are. Then I thought about making my own, but after some reading it felt like more faff than it was worth. Then I re-purposed my old Lenovo X230 laptop as a proof of concept - worked great: 2-bay (with the right laptop) very small...

Hey so I just got an email about the new Pi-top device. It is a laptop-designed case for a raspberry pi. It has a thick, clamshell design that I think could be re-purposed into a DIY laptop, using an STX system with appropriate ventilation and mounting mods. The screen is attached via HDMI...

I have this fantasy project to be able to build my own modular laptop (cpu and gpu mainly). In a perfect world I would use desktop grade parts, but I am only one person and I don't have a lifetime to design this project, so I was attempting to look into MXM mobos / GPUs, but I can't really find...

Greetings wonderful people here on SFF, My name is Chris and I've been developing a laptop concept (admittedly slowly). The main idea is for a truly portable laptop with desktop parts, that doesn't break the bank and can be transported by plane (as carry-on luggage) just like you would a normal...
