    SFF Case for mini-ITX GPU/MB

    Wow, this really took a life of it's own. I'm glad :) After seeing the Osmi I really do like it and think it's one of the better solutions that meets the criteria I was looking for. Since the SFF PS is 600Watt I think it's fine that it's not an ATX PS since it has plenty of power for the likes...

    To upgrade or not to upgrade?

    Time to OC each one so you can give #s (if your so inclined). Likely your market is people with a single card looking to go SLI or tri-SLI, so OC potential is a good thing to know.

    Technology Gone Wrong

    I think I've seen video of such a thing happening and ending badly. I actually almost bought a QX-1, but instead opted for the a5100, which can also connect to a smart device for control & viewing. I'm glad I went with the a5100 because it has extra capabilities that I would have missed since...

    Intel Dual-Core Waxes Intel Quad-Core (and I eat crow)

    The fact is, for those of us that live the [H] way, the motherboard was primary. Choosing the right board allowed me to start out with a Q6600, overclock it to 3.2+, then later when the price was right buy a Q9550 that I overclocked as well. This vastly extending the useful live of my PC, all...

    SFF Case for mini-ITX GPU/MB

    Thanks, those images up top show clearly what I'm looking for in a case for m-ITX.

    Sooo I guess back on track. like I said earlier, http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1826399 is probably your best bet. That said, I've changed my mind after waiting for stock of 'devil's canyon' I'm not going to go ahead with an X99 board instead and the i7-5820.

    Core i7-5960X 5930K 5820K Overclocking & Performance @ [H]

    Thanks for the review guys. After reading it and thinking about my next upgrade I'm no longer going to go with devil's canyon just because I have 16 GB of DDR3 waiting around. Instead I'm going to sell that unused memory and jump right in. Am I correct in thinking that the X99 MB (likely with...

    Q6600 vs e6750, practical power consumption difference?

    All in all, I'd say the added performance of keeping the machine doing what it does and making you happy longer will likely far outweigh the small energy difference costs in the long run. You will also likely find a slight OC will make things even better with minimal effort. Max out the RAM in...

    SFF Case for mini-ITX GPU/MB

    Well, Osmi looks like the smallest footprint. Lets hear what the approximate cost would be and see if we can get to 50. The M1 looks great as well, so if the Osmi doesn't work out for the minimalist volume that'd be another awesome way to go and I'd likely use an ATX PS with it.

    Cost is one reason I'd like to buy at Microcenter, the permanent 'sale' price on the board, cpu, and then the bundle discount make it a hell of a deal... so if the Asus Gene is available, why not!

    http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1826399 I'm also considering this board. If it's in stock when the i7-4790k comes back to Microcenter, I'll probably end up with it.

    SFF Case for mini-ITX GPU/MB

    Wow, looks like there's some good options out there, and that Osmi is very very nice. I'm just waiting for my local Microcenter to get back in stock with 'Devil's Canyon', in the mean time I need to make a choice between microATX and a miniITX build. If I did go miniITX, I'd initially be using...

    ASUS Maximus VII Gene micro-ATX Motherboard Review @ [H]

    Looking at this board for a build to use some DDR3 sitting around, and unused GTX 680 on an unused mATX Q6600 build from years ago. Noticed a typo in second sentence "The software package is an evolutionary step above the previous iteration of the software rather than an evolutionary one." I'm...

    SFF Case for mini-ITX GPU/MB

    Ok, so this case seems close to meeting what I was asking. I was borderline wondering if I should go with microATX for a while. Plan is for a GTX 970 and i7-4790k, so if there were a better cooling option while not using the 3.5" drive space it might work for me.
