    [SOLVED] Need a system recommendation! Laptop or Mini ITX for my particular needs?

    Awesome, I appreciate the follow up. It's unlikely I'll be running anything in 4k anytime soon, but I like having that base covered for when the day comes! Good info, there! I think I'm gonna end up going with one of the Beelink GTRs. It'd be fun to build a mini-ITX, SFF rig for this, but the...

    Understood. I doubt I'll ever run anything 4k, but still nice to have that base covered. For what I'm doing, it sounds perfect. I appreciate the recommendation!

    [SOLVED] Need a system recommendation! Laptop or Mini ITX for my particular needs?

    Hey, it's true! It'd be nice, but I'll be waiting a while. I wouldn't be streaming anything wild. Watching live sports just in my browser and the occasional twitch stream. But I guess at this point, it's just get whatever GPU you can find! Thanks, again! Awesome, thanks! Hot damn, that...

    [SOLVED] Need a system recommendation! Laptop or Mini ITX for my particular needs?

    Asked a few other places and the consistent seems to be an "actual" PC. I'm glad I checked. The size and ease of a laptop was appealing, but I definitely want the best tool for the job. I was thinking I'd be able to disable or bypass the laptop having to be open/screen being on. But it certainly...

    [SOLVED] Need a system recommendation! Laptop or Mini ITX for my particular needs?

    Hey guys, Was in the process of brainstorming my next build. I had assumed I would be best off by building another PC to cater to my needs, but now I'm not so sure that that's the best call if a decent, pre-built laptop could cover all the bases. Here the deets from the sticky post...

    [SOLVED] SATA powered hub amp limit?

    Hey there, Bit of a noob question, but hoping you guys can help me out. Looking at my MoBos Fan and ARGB headers and learning about amp limits. I'll be well within the limits using simple splitters on my CPU/CHA fan headers. But I was curious about using a SATA powered hub. Something like...

    [SOLVED] Help me build my first PC! A killer gaming ITX.

    Actually got recommended the Lian Li case earlier, after looking into, looks like it wouldn't be able to support a 240 Radiator. Which seems like the minimum for this build. I love the aesthetics, though! Regarding the drives, just did it to save some cash. Probably not the best set up...

    [SOLVED] Help me build my first PC! A killer gaming ITX.

    Thanks for such a detailed reply! I'll definitely be sure to utilize a quality monitor for it. Still going over some research between 144 vs 240. Seems like there's not much difference, but people said that about 60hz, too.... Interesting you mentioned the NZXT airflow. That was not something...

    Go big or go home, right? What do you think I could scale back on?
