Less is more? Impact is officially the nicest looking, nicest feeling, stoutest board I've ever put my hands on. And the current ROG BIOS is great too.

That case is huge!

This is a beautiful thing!

Done using the psu extender cable. I used the black one for a more cleaner look to fit the theme. My original stock sfx cable is rather frayed from me forcing its short length to the motherboard. I stuff the extra cable being the sfx psu. The stock cable is alot more flexible than the extender and in my opinion higher quality. I hope I have no problem with it... Got to test if this set up is stable or not.

I want to give you a like, but I feel deep down this strong urge that that case needs to be squeezed smaller!!!! everything is so tiny in this case... but such a big open gap at bottom... I want to see the glory of no free space mini-ITX!!! why do you torture me so?

Looks like you don't have much leg/feet space?

Why the monitor position that high? Do you stand instead of sit?

It's ok, don't need to stretch out. Could move the Sub i guess

you gave me a snack but I want a meal!!!


LinusTechTips or JayzTwocents, i forget which one did a mini-itx build, and there was not a single inch of spare room in the case... it was an awesome designed case... wish I could find that video again. that would be my dream build. lol

For what it is, nice. Personally, I need more space. That tiny desk would drive me bonkers..

Well here are my temps associated with my PC up there ^ the CPU and GPU are both near 100% so temps are pretty good. the clocks on the GPU are pretty good it seems as 1500mhz is not bad for a 980ti with mem at 7760mhz. I have included a pick of afterburner too, in case it's any use to anyone else OC'ing a 980ti. Card is using 268w

My current shit rig but it will be my spare here soon as my clan member in destiny 2 he and I were talking about PCs and I shared pictures of mine and he said I have a old alienware with a GTX 980Ti and a i7 collecting dust you can have it for free you just gotta come and get it. I plan to get it but sadly it wont be "soon" earliest is maybe this December it has windows 10 on it but I plan to wipe it regardless of whatever it had on it.

Model: HP Compaq 8200 Elite SSF PC/mini (10 year old PC)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz 4 cores 4 threads
GPU: 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 (ZOTAC International) GDDR5 with a Overclock setting done with MSI Overclocking Scanner so it is a stable OC
Ram: 16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 4 slots total @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24) It cannot use DDR4 and yes I know its very shit and slow
PSU: Stock but the High efficiency version 240 W active PFC 87%/90%/87% efficient at 20%/50%/100% load not that the High efficiency really means much
Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 1495 (SOCKET 0)
SSD: 238GB LITEON CV8-CE256-11 SATA 256GB (SATA (SSD))
External HD: 1863GB Seagate BUP Slim BK SCSI Disk Device (USB (SATA) )
OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit Build 19043.1288 Version 21H1 (My model cannot use Windows 11 nor do I want to)

I keep the top cover off just because and it helps keep my shit cool passively I do not care about the dust management either as its super easy so hardly a negative for me

I got very lucky when I got this as a prebuilt before the terrible computer inflation the total cost was $400 flat had literally NO dust build up aside from just little parts around inside the case and It got the 3rd best CPU that this model could get from the list it could use on its original release. The better versions were the Intel Core i5-2500 (3.30 GHz, 6MB cache, 4 cores) and the best one was the Intel Core i7-2600 (3.40 GHz, 8MB cache, 4 cores) the others were shit and not worth mentioning.

Aside from the SSD and the GPU it is all factory and this HP is also proprietary so I cannot "technically" upgrade the PSU from the 240W there is a way but it involves modding another PSU or some shit but then some random dude I got into a little argument with who claimed he worked and built HP computers for 15 years said I can upgrade the PSU to something higher but I still highly doubt it.

I don't think I could ever rock a case that small as I live in Arizona it would cook during the summers lol but it is very clean man

I live in Thailand.... It does cook

120+°F and the Air-conditioning goes on anyway

Glad you know my pain brother! lmao compared to the past 2 decades (I am very close to my big 3rd decade) it is FAR hotter now than back then. Sadly I do not indulge in the AC unless I am suffering and cannot deal with it anymore because the price increase is criminal come summer it is easily 3-5 times more costly. Almost all year round we keep our AC set at 79 and 75 if we feel like indulging but other than that we gotta keep it set like that as we are still pretty below middle-class even more so compared to a good 15 years ago that I can recall off of my weed potato brain lol

 

[ThaiTaffy]

I just drop the temp to 86°F when it's 120+ but luckily I forked out and got inverter systems so the price isn't so bad.

As most watercooling here is off the shelf 240 rads and nothing special I can't fit a custom loop in my case as it stands but many members on the forums here have max load temps lower than my ambient during the summer

aw man that is rough! I have a shit landlord and they are SUPER cheap it took me TWO YEARS of complaining and nagging till they replaced our broken garage then another 2 years to replace the utter GARBAGE AC unit he had on the house and the handyman ended up telling me he had fixed that thing over 15 times before we moved in and it was a second hand very old shit AC unit and finally! the handyman told us it was at the point he could no longer do ghetto repairs.

So we threaten legal action at the landlord if he did not replace the unit with a brand new unit as at that time summer was already here and I was NOT gonna sit there and cook in my house from the 80s with a damn swamp cooler in a state that is mostly desert. Took him another damn 6 weeks before the brand new unit came but it wasn't the same handyman it was entirely two new dudes I never met before and they did not really speak English well nor tried to make an effort which is not a huge issue for me I grew up around a Vietnamese/Chinese family and they were legit my second family so I gained a good skill at being able to understand even if their English is very bad. But man they were pricks and did some damage to some of my property because they didn't ask to use my water hose that was hooked up in a special specific way to constantly water this beautiful Ficus tree I bought for well over $100 USD all so they could wash this nasty black like stuff that had strong adhesive like properties to it but so is the way of life sometimes lol

I feel sorry for you guys, we don't really need A/C here even in summer, and winter is good for some monster O/C

Yeah winter is finally here in Arizona but it is still a little hot during the days but come the nights and early mornings it is already nice and super cold. LOL I can already sense the snow birds coming to Arizona again hahaha granted I was one for a few years before I become a proper local in Arizona as we moved here when I was four so Arizona basically became my "hometown"

 

[ThaiTaffy]

Where I am in Thailand only has two seasons, really hot and wet hot currently it's wet hot so I'm just using fans.

My brother in law is a HVAC engineer here and has a very nice looking copper condenser with a 18inch fan fitted in his garden, every time I walk past it ghetto mod thoughts go through my mind "what TDP could that handle I wonder"

 

[Ahhzz]

Ok, back to topic. LQ some posts to minimize the noise. thanks guys!
