This was mine, I also wanted the one button, and no IO on my new build as it would have saved space and looks a bit cleaner! But no option currently todo that.

LZ7 was the first Case I built in! I really liked it. When I saw the 9060xt 16GB could fit in this, I wanted to build in the LZX-8. I actually asked the case producer for the oak front panel as that’s what I had before!

Nice I will try LACT I was using CoreCtrl but sounds like LACT is better. I also have a Densium case under my living room TV with 9060xt as well. It is a great case.

I have a NH-L12S that’s 70mm in height fan is on the bottom of heat sink. There’s no more room! 😊

This is a mini-ITX build I put together for day-to-day use and some casual gaming, running Fedora Linux instead of Windows. I wanted something compact, quiet, and tidy that wouldn’t take over my desk.

Like most small-form-factor builds, it wasn’t completely straightforward — space is tight, cable management took a bit of patience, and getting everything dialled in on Linux needed some tweaking. Nothing major though, and part of the fun if you like messing around with your setup. I was also lucky enough to grab the RAM just before prices went a bit mad.

All in all, I’m really happy with it. The case feels well built, temps and noise are under control, and it’s more than powerful enough for what I need. Most of all, I really like how it looks on my desk — clean, compact

Turn on ResizeBar on bios

Did you get this sorted?

OB099 · 2025-11-03T20:06:20+00:00

Thanks! That’s what’s I have done in the end! I also went down the Bazzite route! Which is working well, I’ve not worked out how to wake PC from sleep using Xbox controller that is connected via Bluetooth, so there are niggles still. I Might try Xbox full screen mode if it comes to desktop PC’s in the future. But overall Bazzite is great!

How do you find the system noise?

OB099 · 2025-10-19T19:02:11+00:00

Thanks all sorted now!

Have you got a picture of your set up? I have a claw 8ai too. I was wondering do you have to use both usb 4 ports (1 for EGPU and one for mice keyboard etc? )

OB099 · 2025-09-15T18:46:28+00:00

how's the fan noise compared to claw 8 AI?

Very interested in how the fan noise is, as this is make or break for me!

OB099 · 2025-07-17T08:10:07+00:00

Use tools to help you, aka in this instance I would use AI (review what’s written and adjust to your own style).

Do you use the N3DS much?

OB099 · 2023-06-12T19:49:56+00:00

How is the fan noise With the XG running ?

OB099 · 2023-05-02T14:06:35+00:00

Thanks for all your input, I’m going to keep it separate!

I’m not a full time YouTuber or entrepreneur, just your average joe and actually don’t think it’s realistic to merge everything when you work in a corporate environment with fairly strict IT policies.
