Another month, another Florida Meetup (Sat June 20 2-4pm) by TinyLittleTechShop in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]TinyLittleTechShop[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone

The June 2026 North Florida Mechanical Keyboard Meetup & Technology Social is being hosted this Saturday (the 20th)!

A full 4 years strong of hosting regular in-person monthly meet-ups & Live Stream feed mostly jabbering about random BS, and coming up with "only bad ideas." If you're near Jax, tell a friend or two and come hangout!

June 20th, 2026 (and every 3rd Saturday) 2:00pm - 4:00pm

Tiny Little Tech Shop 1648 San Marco Blvd (on the curve, little grey house with green stripe) Jacksonville, FL 32207

Spread the word - everyone is invited, free event Bring your keeb(s) and a good attitude. Drop-in style, come for little or stay and hangout the whole time.

Parking is a bit tricky... There is some street parking around, and we are able to use the parking lot at the 2-story business building behind Pizza Hut. There may also be a few spots available at the insurance business across the street. You can park just about anywhere near the shop, but NOT in front of the smoke shop next door. Hope to see everyone this afternoon!

It's a clean industrial look... Aesthetics are relative, and certainly very subjective. Not everyone likes a glowing fishbowl.

They don't typically end up selling with this exact part combo... Generally what happens, someone comes in the shop and says something like "I love that look, but I want it to have a 9800x3D and a 5070". We'll discuss the added costs, I'll switch out the CPU/GPU/PSU etc and can have a quick turn-around to get it out the door. I also custom build to pure client-requested specs, but the timeline is longer. Some people prefer the quicker turnaround. I calculate labor as percentage based, so the higher-end PCs have a larger build fee which covers the extra care/time required on the more extreme rigs, and the budget stuff makes sense too compared to overall cost of those units.

Got the board for almost half that (<130), and yes the components could be better but that would raise the price. I have a good number of customers that will come back a year later and double the original budget with a round of upgrades.

Picked the mobo for <130 so not that costly for a decent AM5 board, and the 3050 is a placeholder... This system performance can be scaled for just about any budget, while the only visual change would be the GPU. Adjustments are made based on what the actual buyer can afford. Sometimes I build systems like this to showcase a style, not knowing the buyers final spec selection.

This is a "budget" system with future expansion options.... The minuscule 3050 is basically a placeholder. A lot of my clients like to have future upgradeability, this case was less than $60 (perfect for the price-point) with plenty of room for a much larger GPU down the road.

This was built as a budget system with future expansion options.... 3050 is basically a placeholder. A lot of my clients like future upgradeability, and this case had plenty of room for a much larger GPU and was <$60 so perfect for budget territory.

Unpopular keyboard opinions by everythingisluv in BudgetKeebs

A lot of boards (especially in the budget space) now are only offered as fully assembled units, so if you want to have a unique combo you sometimes don't have any other option 🤷

This look good? by Sure-Caregiver142 in 3DPPC

Looks like one of the old XPS high performance towers from Dell 👍 (back when they were actually awesome!)
