Hi @Slayer88 I could make you the 8-pin PCI-e cables if you want. Like @rsaeon, I'm not a fan of sleeved cables, but I have some grey sleeving left over and I'd be happy to use it. The Techflex sleeving I have isn't purpose built for sleeving PC wires, so the weave isn't as tight. See pictures...

Hey all, I have quite a few spare SATA power connectors (and various paraphernalia) left over and was wondering if any of you would be interested in custom (SFF) length cables like so: I could also do PCI-e, EPS, molex, and possibly 24-pin cables too. I don't have much of the grey...

See below. I got a large (too large, actually) box off Amazon. I separated the display and stand (fairly obvious) and padded the display with a significant thickness of bubble wrap. I created a base layer of crumpled newspaper on top of which I kept the display. Used a thermocol box and more...

If I may ask, did you import the T30s, or were you able to find them domestically?

Exactly. The board I mentioned was a nightmare when it was released. Multiple gremlins, definitely not a finished product. These were mostly resolved through BIOS updates and by locking the PCIe slot to gen 3.0 speeds (the board was re-released as the Ultra Lite). The board is now functional...

Order it via AMZ? You pay for the mobo and USD 90ish for the shipping and import fees. 18-19k is not a bad deal given there are still Z490i and B550i mobos being sold for as much.

For people looking for an upgrade to Intel Alder/Raptor Lake in a Mini-ITX case, this mobo may be something you'd be interested in. There are compromises to be had in the design/layout department + the PCIe x16 slot is locked to gen 3.0 speeds, but you do get a capable Z690i board (albeit only...

Awesome! The cable sleeving is a nice touch.

Made an impulsive purchase and got the Crosshair VIII Impact. Should've stuck with the B550i/X570i Strix because all sandwich style cases are out the window.

25k, if you go the 'budget' route. The latest and greatest cost an arm and a leg. + availability is as bad as the prices are. I'd also drop the idea of using the glass panel with these components (you probably can't if you side mount the radiator anyway). If you're handy with a drill, you could...

This entire thread is a riveting read. Has to be the most ambitious SFF-project ever attempted. Highly recommended.

It includes a flex ATX bracket and a mounting plate. Also, any case (Dan A4, S4M etc.) that natively supports the HDPlex 400 DC-ATX, will also support the GaN unit. For all other cases, you'll need to get handy with a drill.

Plan changed, looks like. They're all being shipped from China now it seems. Also, it would be very inefficient to pay for shipping from China-US, and then onward to the customer's location (given they offer free worldwide shipping on these units).

I pre-ordered my unit. Shipping has always been from China where they are manufactured. I've been in touch with Larry throughout.

They ship with FedEx from China. Transit time is about 2-3 weeks. As for D&T, I paid none because I consigned the shipment to my father's business which has export credit. There may be more to it than this, but I paid nada.

Something special came in after a long wait.. This is rev. 1 of the GaN unit which is unfortunately not compatible with Gigabyte motherboards 'because of a digital power feature which causes conflicts'. It works perfectly with all other motherboards. Rev. 2 units are now being shipped out...

If you're looking to power a 3070/3070Ti, you do not need to upgrade.

Staking my claim on the mobo if you're willing to separate.
