It's a mITX cube case, so it's not exactly competitive with the DAN case and some of the other tiny ITX cases that have come out lately. In general I think cube cases tend to look smaller on the internet than they are in reality.

If you want a portable ITX case and you're OK with the cube form factor they're not terrible, apart from a very unfortunate choice to go with a giant LED swastika fan on the front. They are discontinued and go for a premium on eBay though, and from what I hear they are kind of dust magnets.

The first run of DANs could be ordered with handles, I don't know too many others besides that.

Fuck the DH
I mean the big LED fans of not that long ago do that, though. Mine isn't definitively swastika-like, but it's an old 200MM fan with LED's placed around instead of the big light tube ring I see on YouTube videos.

If they added some sweet stereo speakers (Sony XB30/40) that would be an awesome boom box PC build.

No, no more loving derivatives. We need to be done with GCN derivatives, and onto "the thing that replaces GCN".

Unfortunately, anything red that symbolizes rebirth is going to have unfortunate fire themes, which will lead to a new generation of "lol Atmosphere's Muggy Devices" jokes or some other three-word jokes or some other initialism that matches AMD.

Weren't Jaguar chips only available commercially less than a year before the PS4 and Bone came out? I understand they weren't powerful, but they were the newest SoC solution at the time.

Led lights in fans have been like that since what, 2011?

Nobody's caught that until now?

Back on GPU hardware, ASUS finally after about a month apparently is replacing my Strix 980ti with what appears to be the same card in throwing distance of the same serial number.
It's interesting they actually have cards available for replacement (The RMA page said the parts were unavailable and on order so I guess they may have had to search their stock or something.)

So no free upgrade/sidegrade but as long as this card doesn't do the squares of death again, I hope it holds out until whenever the next gen is available. Going off the Pascale launch and the miner craze still going on, I don't see that happening for at least a year unless they allow a way to pre-order directly from Nvidia or one of the partners.

And he says it's going to be a gaming architecture. Looks like ComputerBase was talking out their rear end after all (they are the source of the "Turing is a cryptomining uarch" rumor, and they said that purely based on the name).

The hell is it? I've seen similar where the os detects them as they say they are what the seller says they are. I assume they're just software adjusted 730s or something, maybe 560s. No idea. Feel like ebay should have weeded this crap out.

It's some lower end usually old card flashed with a bios that says it's a higher end newer card but the specs don't match. It's a really common scam and I'm guessing ebay can't keep up. The specs mean it's probably a GTX 550 Ti or something:
