    NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)

    Hi everyone! I have an NCASE M1 version 1 (first edition). I bought it long ago anticipating an upgrade, but it's been sitting in my apartment for over four years because it turns out the 2600K was a legendary CPU. All good things must come to an end, however, and the time has come to...

    Outputs for 4k displays

    I think I've figured question #1 out, and the answer is yes. VESA's own website has the following slides detailing the capabilities of DP1.2: www.vesa.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/DisplayPort-DevCon-Presentation-DP-1.2-Dec-2010-rev-2b.pdf Slide 11 says that 4k displays have "full support" in...

    Outputs for 4k displays

    Hi guys! I know that currently, 4k monitors consist of two panels stitched together, so to get 60Hz output, you need to use either dual-link HDMI or DP1.2 with MST. This makes scaling impossible. So what happens when native 4k displays are introduced? Specifically: 1) Does DP1.2 support...

    4k 30"+ single panel for ~$4,000?

    Is DP 1.2 even capable of handling 4k@60Hz in SST mode? If not, even if they start selling monitors that can push 4k using SST, we'll need new graphics cards with updated ports to actually use them.

    Will TSX matter in the future?

    Well, people have reported seeing problems as low as 1.3v, so it's a little worse than you're making it out to be, I think.

    Will TSX matter in the future?

    Another thing against the 4700K are problems with premature chip degradation. It seems like the chip is much more fragile than previous generations and overvolting the chip even modestly seems to cause performance losses in mere months (see this thread, for example...

    Minimum requirements to drive dual 4k displays

    Ok, well here's to hoping Maxwell gives us something with two DP1.2 ports! Thanks for the help!

    Minimum requirements to drive dual 4k displays

    Does anyone have an idea if the next generation of video cards will have HDMI 2.0 support? I imagine a single card solution (that isn't an expensive Quadro) would work if it had DP 1.2 + HDMI 2.0. Cursory googling doesn't seem to show any rumors to this effect. I don't want to spend a lot of...

    Minimum requirements to drive dual 4k displays

    If I insist on 60Hz (which I'm not sure actually makes any difference for my usage), it seems like the cheapest option of everything that has been mentioned here is really just two cards. I think getting two 7750's might be the absolute bare minimum, but I worry that only 1GB of onboard memory...

    Minimum requirements to drive dual 4k displays

    Well, I'm going to have to wait a little regardless because they're not coming out for a few months. I did not think that even basic output would require multiple cards, though!

    Minimum requirements to drive dual 4k displays

    Hey everyone! With Dell's sub-$1000 4k display coming out this spring, I've started to think about possibly buying two of them to upgrade my workstation. What kind of graphics card(s) do I need in order to drive two such displays? I emphasize that this is for my work, which consists of...

    ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU Mini

    Since the card is so short, you could probably do even better and fit an H80i mounted onto the top vent of the SG05?

    ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU Mini

    Would this fit in, say, a PC-Q03 without modding?

    I vote for having a cover for that hole.
