@Aux I think Oct 1st is more reasonable, gonna take some time between Ampere order starts and people actually have the cards on hand

It looks like you were right, and looking at the chaos which is the release, I dont expect its going to get better until I dont know when.
Fingers crossed for someone to get an Ampere card and to do a SFF build with it.

I see plenty of RTX 3080/3090 builds over on r/sffpc already, some even has RTX 3080 with full cover waterblock. The problem is those guys probably have no idea about our forum, let alone PPL concept & the friendly competition we have here ?

@thelaughingman too many people trying to be the next Linus or Jayz
not that I can blame them
those guys actually did a lot of content on SFF boutique cases - that's how I got into SFF actually, I watched the LTT's video on the Dan A4 v1 years ago, and got so hooked that I had to Googled up the case, found the A4 thread here and stuck with this forum ever since ?

Nice. I've been eyeing a few cases from China for myself but Ive noticed most of them list internal dimensions (3.96L is also internal). I've seen people saying the actual size for the k39 being 4.35L to 4.47L. Could you measure the actual dimension of the case?

I dont have a metric measuring tape and was going off the listed dimension, if anyone has the actual dimensions, happy to redo the scores

This is perfect motivation and lots of good ideas to push more power from the SFX-rigs.
I'm working on a new case, and just found this thread.
My goal of being able to push 165.000 points and 6500 points in this competition.
It might be a stretch, but I think it is better to aim high than too low.

I'm in the same boat, waiting on Big Navi and possible upgrade from 3900X to 5950X before joining this round ? then I can say peak-AMD achieved!
