    Never seen before! World smallest ITX case with full size GPU 4.7L, ready to break record!

    Confused why we're stuck on full-length GPUs. The mini versions seem to work pretty well, and would reduce volume quite a bit. I'm also in favor of internal PSUs rather than a brick, but agree having it on any side besides the back (or bottom I suppose, with a hole for the cord) would be odd.

    Hades Canyon NUC - Kaby Lake with Vega GPU

    I bought my Skull Canyon w/ 6770hq for ~$550, and it was bundled with a 256gb m.2 and 8gb stick. I just added another matching 8gb stick for $40, so was built all-in for <$600. These will be considerably more expensive, but hopefully some deals will pop up again to make it more reasonable. I...

    Hades Canyon NUC - Kaby Lake with Vega GPU

    I'm pretty excited about this though. Yes, price-wise we can build something much more capable for less, but not in this form factor (7L vs 1.2L). Looking forward to having one of the 100w skus in the bedroom.

    Project Orthrus - Smallest SLI mATX case (V2)

    Looks amazing---but I expect will be expensive all-in once it goes into production. Really awesome job designing it.

    CCD MI-6: Performance in a 6.7L MIcrotower

    Latest design looks great! I agree with everything Boil said about black hardware, black sunken screws on the sides, and black USB ports. Also dislike the shiny front panel from earlier picks (reminds me of old refrigerators), something with a fine, matte texture (or brushed) would be cool...

    Kaby Lake 7700K vs Sandy Bridge 2600K IPC Review @ [H]

    Thanks Kyle for doing this, and Nimisys for generously providing the sandy bridge hardware. Much appreciated guys. The results do make me sad though. I know you guys all know this already, but the desktop enthusiast market is quite small (and shrinking). The CPU demands for the vast...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    This case looks awesome, especially in white! What a beautiful and streamlined design, inside and out! I've subscribed to emails. My one and only design suggestion on the white case is that the black power button looks (in my own opinion) a bit out of place on the clean white chassis. Looks...

    EA Store - Buy 2 Digital Games and get 40% off of order in addition to 30%* coupon

    I was thinking Dragon Age: Origins + LOTR: Rise of the Witch King (never got around to getting it) for $25 total. Not bad. How much of a pain is EA's digital download service? Is it not worth it? Do i have to install crappy software to make this work?

    Steam weekend deal: Mass Effect $9.99

    Best. Game. Ever. If you have not played Mass Effect, this is your chance. Easily my favorite game of all time. Simply brilliant. Too bad I paid ~$50 for mine when it was released :(

    37" westinghouse or 42" phillips

    I have the common 37" 1080P Westinghouse (link) and couldn't be happier. I've used both VGA (my old PC) and DVI (new pc) and PC looks perfect over both of those. Gaming is excellent and I never notice any ghosting or lag. As a TV it's good (but not great), though I'm overall very happy with...

    $1500 case build, advice/suggestions needed

    I just build a rig for ~$1500 a few weeks ago (in my sig). I'm extremely happy with it. I put a lot of time researching, so feel free to use it as a guide. As for RAM, I'd go with the G.skill 2x2gb kit (probably the DDR2-1000, but all are great). I got Corsair dominator but the G.skill give...

    Newegg Rebate Questions. Help?

    Actually, I think I got them all through newegg's rebate center...they don't make it so easy to find, but I figured it out. My apologies for the unnecessary thread.

    Newegg Rebate Questions. Help?

    I ordered some the parts for the build in my sig on Monday (six days ago). However, I didn't print out the rebates at the time of order. I went to go print them out and send them in today, and realized that several are no longer listed on the site because they have been replaced by newer dated...

    CPU/GPU Bottleneck?

    From what I understand, any quad over 3.0Ghz will not bottleneck your GPU. At such a high resolution, only your GPU can really be the bottleneck, even though it's super powerful.

    New Build, Audio problems, Please help!

    Great...if I decide I need the ports, I'll pull the trigger on one of those for $30 shipped....but I can't see doing it right now. Thanks a bunch for posting that pfunkman.
