I hope GPU prices return to sanity. I didn't buy a particular version of the 1080 Ti when it first came out waiting for the price to drop after the initial release and welp lol RIP.

KS posted:I've built my PCs forever, but the Corsair One is looking attractive. The price premium is relatively low for the i160 -- I get to $3200 for the same components in an NZXT H200 -- and the vertical form factor means I can shove it behind the monitor on my smallish desk. Evolv shift from Phanteks might be worth a look. http://www.phanteks.com/Enthoo-Evolv-Shift.html However it’s still gonna be bigger than Corsair One. I gotta admit the Corsair One has my attention too. Coredump fucked around with this message at 13:42 on Feb 16, 2019 |

1gnoirents posted:I posted this in the GPU thread and I really should have here. These are my experiences with the SG13 case. I had been using a Silverstone RVZ02B but it was getting torn up with all the wacky crap I did to it. I loved it, and still do (that style of case is extremely easy to work with), but I wanted a radiator spot without taking up too much volume. A lot of the options in this space seems oddly expensive but the SG13 came through at a price actually lower than I wanted to spend. I really like your build. I wonder how this case would handle moving the power supply to the front, letting the power supply get air from the front grill, and then using the top of the case to mount fans, radiators, etc.

Sugo 12 sleeply looks up. "is it.... my turn?" https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=540&area=en The Sugo line could use a refresh and be really awesome again. For instance if they built the SUGO 13 for a front mount sfx power supply and left the rear open for tower coolers, etc. I suppose like they have the Sugo 08 setup but shrink the size to make it SFX only. Plus the 180mm air penetrator was an awesome fan, it would be cool for them to release an AIO with a 180mm radiator and fan combo for the top of the SUGO 08.

necrobobsledder posted:I see a lot of SFF builders using blower based GPU coolers while using an AIO for the CPU. Given that GPUs are a much bigger power consumer than a CPU in a gaming machine why don't more people have hybrid coolers for their GPUs and use a fairly lower profile HSF for the CPU? I ask partly because I think almost every SFF case I've seen like the Louqe Ghost and the NCase M1 were designed where there's no space for the pipes near the GPU and it's basically impossible to buy a smaller end SFF case because of the tubes coming off the GPU. I'm mostly annoyed trying to fit all my crap into a smaller case but it seems inevitable that I'm going to be back in a larger case with sound dampening material and accepting that a HSF that weighs 1 kg is the better all-around option. I'm with you. The GPU is a much higher tdp and source of heat. If I was gonna water cool a component I would choose the gpu, get a lot more heat out of the case and put into the water loop.

If you have your main pc on you could do a steam link to stream from main pc to tv. Then you can look at intel compute sticks > intel nucs > gigabyte brix in that order for small form factor computers.

Wish there were more cases that copied the Corsair One lay out. Pretty much a vertical sandwich case with a big exhaust fan at the top to draw air thru side mounted radiators. If other manufacturers were going to copy the idea make it wide enough to put fans on the side radiators instead of relying solely on the big top fan as Corsair does.

teagone posted:I'd like to see Meshify shrunk down to around the size of an NR200. Call it the Meshify C Pico or something. Problem these case makers run into with a traditional tower layout style case is that the mitx motherboard is quite small but the video cards are quite long in comparison. Once you make the tower big enough to give the gpu enough room with cooling at the front it fucks up the proportions.

HappyCapybaraFamily posted:Answered my own question. Rem0o's Fan Control is what you want. I confirm it works with the Gigabyte B550i AORUS PRO AX. I can finally tie my case fans to GPU temperature! It also lets me drive each GPU fan independently should I so choose. To build on this some motherboards have a temperature_in header. My motherboard is an Asus x470-prime for anyone curious, yes its not itx but full size atx. I got a $10 temperature sensor cable from Amazon that I fit between my waterblock and gpu and tied a case fan header to that. Works a treat to spin up the fans on my 240mm rad that cools my gpu. The cpu stays air cooled cuz it doesn't shunt out the heat that a gpu does.

I moved my old desktop z97 system into the Sugo 14 case. I have to say I really like the case and the flexibility it gives me for how I want to cool things and where I can mount drives etc. In my old Sugo 05 I have an SSD just hanging out in the front of the case held in place by cable tension. In the 14 there's a drive mount in the case and two up front that I saw. I fit a 240mm radiator with no problem. I will say using an sfx power supply with atx bracket gave me more room for cable clutter but a full size atx power supply wouldn't have been a problem. I'm thinking of getting me a cheap ryzen 7 system to put in there depending on sales over black friday. Fits nicely if a little snuggly in my media center beneath the tv.

Been meaning to update the thread. I got a Sugo 14 and what a joy that thing has been to build in. Having the ability to take off all 4 panels has been . I originally moved my i7 z97 system into the case before that got yanked out and put into a Sugo 13 for my niece. I currently have a Ryzen 3600 b450 itx system. It fits well in my entertainment center and every time I have to work on it it’s been easy mode. I know Ali didn’t care for the case and he raised solid points but if you need something to fit in an entertainment center I feel the NR200 will be too tall and I don’t think it can be laid on its side. In this niche case I feel the Sugo was the best fit for my needs. FuzzySlippers posted:Anyone ever built a SFF all in one (monitor + SFF attached)? For a fun project I've been wanting to do kind of a home portable SFF build to use some of the extra parts I have lying around.

I know this would be incredibly easy with one of those tiny intel/nvidia all-in-one pcs slapped onto the back of a monitor but I wanna be able to use some of my desktop parts.

DrDork posted:The answer is a Chinese special--they make some weird as gently caress stuff over there, particularly for older CPUs. I'm not sure how wise a buy it is, given that each socket only has two RAM slots and they're 100% guaranteed to have cut corners everywhere they could. Especially when for only a few bucks more ($30 shipping, after all) you could get a dual-socket Supermicro that you know was designed well. You got a super micro board you would recommend in this case?

DrDork posted:If you really have a need for dual E5-26xx v2's, get the SuperMicro X9D series. Obviously you'd be buying used instead of new, but there are always great deals you can get. This X9DR3-LN4F+ for example, is $150 for a dual-socket, 24-RAM slot, 4x PCIe 3.0 x16 slot board with dual E5-2630's with heatsinks already on there. It's also obviously large (eATX, so ~13"x13"), but what can you do? Awesome, thank you. I'm already looking at cases to throw something like that in.
