    NCASE M1 - Poor Man's Rear CMOS Reset Button (X570-i)

    Problem I have an NCASE M1, with the ASUS STRIX X570-i. I initially bought a 3900x and recently upgraded to a 5950x as the price on Zen 3 came down. Pretty happy with the upgrade, however, I ran into the dreaded 1900 MHz FCLK black-hole which is common with the 5950x where my system won't post...

    First mod (and SFF Build) with Noctua GPU Shroud and fans

    Im new. Built many PCs before but never a SFF. Didn't see the appeal until now. I have done the big box builds with RGBs - everyone was doing it - so I wanted to. Whenever I would sit at my desk they would literally blind me and distract me from what I was doing so I had to turn them off...

    A4 build with custom layered laser-cut oak side panels

    Hello, I figured you people might be interested in my A4 build. It all started with me thinking that I wanted a taller cpu cooler than supported for my A4. I apologize for the Swedish, but the album and build log originated on sweclockers. If there is interest I could translate the album for...

    Power Supply How to mod the HDplex 160xt for a gtx 1060 3gb build?

    Thinking of a mini ITX case that doesn't have a PSU and go mini ITX with an i5 4460 and GTX 1060 3gb or possibly a Ryzen 5 1500 instead of the i5 4460 cause that is a 65 watt CPU I believe. I was planning to get the HDPlex 160xt as I heard they can be modded to output 200 watts or close. I would...

    Am I able to cut the case to fit a Scythe BS2 Rev.B - Im expecting the fan to stick out as that is 12mm thick - but the heatsink should theoretically be at the edge of the case's enclosure or probably wont close assuming its heatsink is 46mm. (stock cooler and fan - 58mm) Since im currently...

    Gigabyte GTX 970 Noctua Fan Mod

    Recently, I had a fan go bad in my GTX 970 mini. I pulled the shroud off, cut out the fan and enclosure, cleaned up the cuts (on the shroud), and mounted a 92mm (14mm) Noctua fan. It fit perfectly into the space where the previous fan sat, however, there really wasn't much to mount it to. I...
