    Odd PSU Question - Seeking Recommendation

    It's not - it's an MSI Nightblade MI2 bare bones kit. The included PSU is a customized 350 watt FSP 1u design, but I'm not super comfortable feeding my i7 6700 and a 1080 with just 350 watts. I know it can be done, but it's gotta be right up against what the PSU can safely output.

    Odd PSU Question - Seeking Recommendation

    Alright, to get down to it - I'm recovering from a very nasty breakup (where I lost everything but the kids) and I'm finally getting my stuff back together. I have a Barebones system that stayed with me, that I've intended to turn into my workhorse, but I need PSU recommendations. It has to be...

    Any 1u PSUs suitable for a 1080ti and i7 6700?

    Yep! Unfortunately the case is limited to 1u only. I haven't gotten the nerve up to start cutting it yet. Thank you so much for the information, BTW. It's certainly more than I started with.

    Any suitable 1u PSUs for a 1080ti and i7 6700?

    Pretty straight forward. I need a quality 1u PSU capable of feeding an i7 6700 and a 1080ti. Noise isn't a concern. I know EVGA used to sell a customized FSP model with the Hadron cases (and separately), but I can't find those or anything similar in stock anywhere and google is coming up...

    Any 1u PSUs suitable for a 1080ti and i7 6700?

    It's pretty straight forward really. I'm in need of a good quality 1u PSU to feed an i7 6700 and a 1080ti (I don't mind the noise.) I know EVGA used to sell a customized FSP model when the Hadron Air was a thing, but I'm unable to find it or anything like it in stock at this time. Any help would...

    Zotac EN1070 - Now Out on Newegg

    Tech report has a review up for the 1070 model of this unit now. To summarize, it's powerful, quiet and well built, but the mobile 1070 rarely hits the specified base clock or beyond (it's close). It may be a little thermally limited, but it appears its greatest limiter is the 180 watt power...

    New Zotac Polaris Box

    I believe they do. In theory that's all you need to know, but in practice it can be a bit more complicated. The i5, 4c/4t won't be drawing those 45 watts all the time, neither will the i7 with 4c/8t, but it may be drawing closer to 45 watts more consistently than its 4c/4t cousin at the same...

    Zotac EN10 Series Mini PCs Announced

    The areas that I can imagine a faster processor being advantageous would be (on the gaming side of things) emulators, though for the most part even old dual cores at modest clocks do well and RTS games - the huge number of units can drag things to a crawl. Beyond games, image and video editing...

    Zotac EN10 Series Mini PCs Announced

    For the majority of gaming cases, I can't imagine the 6400t would be a problem.

    Gaming SFF machine from NUC?

    The new Skull Canyon NUC boards could be incredible for this specific usage case - I could possibly see a board, a PSU and full size GPU all mounted in the frame of one of the smaller external GPU cages quite comfortably.

    Zotac EN10 Series Mini PCs Announced

    That's specifically why I dodged the EN in favor of the SN model, too. If you ever have the chance to try upgrading the GPU, let me know. I'd be curious to see how it works out.

    Zotac EN10 Series Mini PCs Announced

    I just hope they don't stick the EN10 series with soldered-on dual cores like they did the EN970. The SN970 dodged that bullet at the expense of one of the HDD mounts, but that's a reasonable sacrifice if you ask me.

    Zotac EN10 Series Mini PCs Announced

    The title says it all - Zotac has announced their EN10 series mini-PCs. Details are sparse, but mobile Pascal is confirmed (I believe), with at least two models planned (one with a 1060 part, another with a 1070.) Source: Zotac Magnus EN10 brings Pascal to Zbox mini-PCs

    We need a completely new open form factor (Actually, just a small change)

    Now that's interesting! Edit: Upon further investigation, they're (Gigabyte) still listing it as a desktop GTX 950 with the added caveat that it is downclocked to remain within their definition of reasonable thermals. They reference complaints made about previous generation Brix and Brix Gaming...

    We need a completely new open form factor (Actually, just a small change)

    It's running a gtx950, if I remember correctly. That shouldn't be all that hard to cool, all things considered.
