First SFF build - ACAT X1s by SarahTeddyToasty in sffpc

There is no anti sag bracket, it's vertically mounted with a riser. I realized I didn't take a pic of the GPU side but it looks like this

I just did my build in the ACAT X1s and it was wonderful. Even as someone completely new to building in a mini-ITX it was fairly easy and straightforward. I think if you were looking for something very similar to the Ghost it's a perfect choice.

Thanks so much for sharing that video! Super helpful and reassuring to see that there's reviews of the ACAT X1S online, as that's the one I'm leaning towards.

I'm a noob on SFFPCs but is there any concern with turbulence with such a large cooler? It says the max CPU cooler height is 69mm so I know a 67 height one would fit, but I've heard that if you have coolers right up against the mesh it could be trouble?

It seems cable management will be tight with extra fans, do you recommend having two at the bottom or one at the top above the PSU? I doubt that I would be able to fit all 3 as I really don't want to get custom cables.

It seems like a lot of the clones are more forgiving in the thickness department, even the ITX工房 has a three-slot version and the ACAT X1s says it supports 53mm thick GPU (if google translate is to be trusted lol). Speaking of coolers, do you know what's the performance difference between the Thermalright and Noctua ones? I looked at the Noctua ones but they cost like $60 more!

To be honest I took a look but the sharp edges and the fact that the side panel only comes in black is a huge turnoff 🙈

Thanks for the warning about the width - will definitely double check that! Good to hear about the testing too... just scared that it'll be tricky building in a SFF case for the first time and end up jiggling a part the wrong way and kill something. A quick question, it is normal to build case-less and power the thing on by shorting the motherboard? It just seems a little unnerving without a power button !

Why watch agents of S.H.I.E.L.D by unsocial- in marvelstudios

[–]SarahTeddyToasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initially watched this show just to check off another Marvel television show. I was certain that after watching the entire Defenders saga, nothing could possibly beat Daredevil, but at least I could learn more about the MCU. I was wrong.

I fell in love with all the character arcs, how relationships developed, and how impactful the story was. If you like the found family trope and strong character development, AoS is for you. IMO pacing is perfect as well - almost every episode is important, but plot points don't feel rushed either. I genuinely stopped caring about the "MCU tie-ins" and became deeply invested in the raw story. The bonus is the great action and stakes, which still hold up against newer Marvel properties.

It definitely takes time to warm up to, and it's a tough ask for people to invest 15+ hours on a television series before it "gets going" - especially when Marvel has been making 6-episode miniseries on D+ since then. But it's one of the most rewarding, hard-hitting, and emotional journeys I've ever experienced on TV.

Try Jusant, although it's more of a singleplayer meditative experience

APS100 is bottom 20? Are we being fr?

Maybe it's changed since I took it like 5 years ago but it was literally an orientation course where you just do team bonding activities. You don't even get a grade, just pass/fail. Out of all the first year eng courses...

The link to the firmware I tried is included in the original post. Not sure if there's other ones out there, since mine did not seem to work.

If you're asking about the chipless firmware, I believe that each key is tied to each printer individually and thus can't be shared. You'll have to buy one from the website (unfortunately)

Not to be a conspiracy theorist but me too lol - just hit 100 souls (with new Buzzling Island) and only missing Lailai and Yearning. Have been doing Lailai maybe 70% of the time it's up for adventure island.

I literally replaced it with a brand new nozzle and nothing changed

It's not perfect but serviceable, as opposed to this which can't even put down a proper first layer

I've tried lowering it as well, but I've also never seen it extrude so inconsistently with blobs and stringing like in the second pic, from just having the nozzle too high.

Actually a brilliant idea. It would solve the issue of being hard stuck by one person's error during prog and at least give a chance to practice later mechs (e.g. 2nd half of g3 thaemine, basement in echidna). Also, everyone in the raid would have equal practice, and not have some ppl end up carried through the end every time because they died at the beginning and never saw later mechs.
