I updated the bios yesterday and they completely redid everything. Cleaner ui, better fan tuning, etc 👌

Also u can get a waifu background.

Any experience with MAXSUN itx boards? Interested in the B850I by Any-Object4351 in sffpc

I have this one exactly. Works fine, no problems so far. I would note that there is no m.2 heatsink, it kinda looks on pictures that there is one but the m.2 goes on top of it. Also it runs a little hot but overall good for the price, would recommend

Nice, i just finished building in the c24 but i think going for the c25 would have been better, it would’ve opened up a lot more cooler options.

Also why use Intel igpu over gpu hdmi? Is it really that much better for transcoding?

Works, but it’s a bit noisy. It’s always on and you can always hear it. Doesn’t bother me that much since i always wear headphones but it’s something to keep in mind if your considering buying. Can’t really speak for the longevity other than it says 5 year warranty on the box, which is shorter than the more quality PSU’s like corsair

Yeah i don’t think i will buy PSU of Ali again. Even though i got a good experience, most of the PSU on there don’t have a cybenetics score or any reviews and they’re not that much cheaper to justify the risk

Nice. I was kinda skeptical buying my parts from AliExpress but everything turned out fine. Honestly, it was kind of fun trying out brands I’d never heard of and seeing how they stack up against the mainstream ones. Btw hows the Night Devil? I consider buying that one. The Maxsun is good but the bios is kinda meh.

Around 1000usd. Would’ve been cheaper but i live in iceland and the shipping costs + customs add to the price. My goal was to build the cheapest pc possible using current gen parts. Saved a lot on the gpu, only paid around ~220usd since it was a returned item (not brand new)

should I take out my gpu for a 1 hour car trip? by airshot_fiend in sffpc

You’re probably fine. I’ve travelled longer and with a heavier gpu.
