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

    Anyone in the Dec 12th shipping batch get their tracking # yet? I didn't get a confirmation email or a tracking #. Getting nervous, was hoping to have something to do over the holidays.

    Great review! Thanks

    LanBox (sub 4 liter GTX 970 with internal PSU)

    props to you - love the dedication and tenacity to get this done with the tools you have. I'd be scared to see what you'd be capable of with more robust tooling/resources. Any reason you didn't go with aluminum sheeting? Much easier to cut than steel.

    Bluetooth + USB Mechanical Keyboard?

    Filco Majestouch Convertible 2 is exactly what you're looking for. Exact same form factor as their legendary Majestouch line, but comes with ability to connect to 3 different bluetooth devices, as well as connect directly via USB. Uses normal batteries though, so don't look forward to charging...

    Help me choose a mechanical keyboard?

    If typing accuracy is important, then I'd really recommend the brown or blue over the reds. The reds are a bit too soft and I saw my typing accuracy go down. As far as a board recommendation, I'm assuming you want a numpad since you're using it for work. In my experience, Filcos have...

    Who's still running i5-2500K?

    I got 3 running in various systems at speeds between 4.1 and 4.4. Lovely chips. Also gotta give a shout out to the Asus P67 Pro boards that they're running on. After the SATA controller RMA, they've been flawless for years.

    Looking for earphone with mic I can use on computer & phone

    If use on the go is important, I'd suggest some earbuds with an inline mic. Phones support 4 pole connectors, which allow for stereo output, and 1 input. Computers usually support 3 pole connectors, which only allow for stereo output. Microphone input is usually done through another jack. A...

    mATX case that will hold a full size video card?

    Corsair Air 240 is also great if you're not looking to run a ton of 3.5" storage and looking to really maximize cooling capability. Done a ton of builds in the N200. Great case for the price. Only complaints is a lack of space behind the mobo tray for hiding wires (but what can you expect for...

    Phanteks Customer Service

    Looks great - I got my Evolv coming tomorrow. Looking forward to the legendary build quality that everyone keeps raving about. Just wish they had solid panels.

    6900k - sensible thermal limits (so I can minimise noise safely)

    Keep an eye on the mobo/VRM temps as well if you're going to be applying continuous load - I know they're rated for very high temps, but I've had more mobos fail than CPUs, so I run a separate fan to cool the mobo when I use an AIO. A Zalman fan bracket and a very slow fan is pretty useful for...

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

    While we're dreaming - I hate the full size 24pin atx power connector. Takes up a ton of room and has a lot of redundant/legacy cabling.

    ASUS PG279Q 144hz 1440P IPS G-Sync

    Nope, it's like the backlight is entirely off. The monitor keeps the setting of 100 strobe length when i check the menu, but when i exit the menu, it goes black again until a on/off reset. Oh well, if no one else is seeing this, i guess its bad hardware and i'll RMA.
