    Micro-ATX build

    I guess that I am having a little difficulty with the faux aluminum front. Like the idea of an aluminum case. Y do you think subpar cooling? Haven't seen any numbers published. Thanks!

    No. If oled was an option soon I would wait. But since it isn't I'm getting a 4k monitor. So I'll need the 1080ti. Trace: the cooler you recommend will not fit in the case? Edit: now thinking of just doing the NH-L12.

    Micro-ATX build

    Revised: https://pchound.com/opz0tt/ I'm thinking I'm set on something like this. It looks like my cpu cooler may be a bit tall. Any suggestions for something similar. Can I use an AIO in this case? -Mike Edit: I added an AIO. What do you think? Edit2: Hopefully I'm in the right...

    Micro-ATX build

    Looks like I'm just going to get one now as it seems 40in OLED is going to be a few years. I can go without the optical drive.

    Micro-ATX build

    Will be used for some gaming. A little solidworks. I would like 4K monitor eventually. I would like a quiet, smaller form factor computer. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/y9WRQV Any suggestions? -Mike

    Do I not want SAS with this build. I've always used SATA for my home servers so I don't know much about them. Looks like I'd be locked in to 4 drives. Also it says up to raid 5? Does that mean no support for 6 or 10? Definitely considering the i3 as well. What is the benefit of this case...

    1. Ok. So if I want to go Raid 6 would it be smart to just get 2 more drives? 2. So if I'm going with this setup what would be a good case to get. I'm thinking something inexpensive that has good cooling. I'm not worried about having more than 6 drives. 3. Backup computer. I'm thinking...

    OK... Supermicro x11SSL-CF (has SLI 3008 on board) Samsung 8gb x4 MEM-DR480L-SL01-EU21 Xeon 1230 v5 (or possibly an i3) Alternative would be Supermicro X10SL7-F with Xeon 1230 v3 Or even more inexpensive the T20 but how would I outfit this to give me the reliability I want? So what is a...

    I feel this may have gotten off track. I'm looking to build a server. Any thoughts on the above mentioned supermicro motherboard, etc. I'm thinking of 4 x 4gb WD red pro in raid 10. hardware vs software raid? Thanks! -Mike

    RIght now back up is an external drive/usb that saves all the new data for the day. I would like a better solution here too. I don't know that the SW fixes corrupted files? Thanks! -mike

    Or the supermicro x11SSL-CF with 16gb ECC ram and an i3 processor? Performance isn't a huge deal. Probably less than an gig /day. For backups it may be more important.

    New server build

    So mostly the server will be saving and distributing data. Not much processing. Right now it's just running on an old dell desktop. I'm wondering about the Dell T20. Is this a viable option and how would I outfit it? -Mike
