Update #4 [03/18/2021] Retroactive Build Process Part 1 (RGB-ing the Noctuas) The AWOL-ness is strong in this build log lol. BUT here we go. I started toying with the idea of having RGB fans when I realized there isn't a lot of space for LED strips on the build. I wanted some sort of subtle glow/breathing effect whenever I felt like it. After settling with Noctua I had to figure out how to LED-ify them. The solution? Phantek's Halo Lux: This shot was taken after modifying the thickness of the Halo Luxes to fit the case. The bottom fan slots of the SM580 only has space (thickness-wise) for a standard 140mm or 120mm fan and maybe 2.5mm of breathing room. See below: This was an issue as the Halo Lux was about 3mm thick so the combined array of RGB add-on and fan would not fit. Solution? I sanded the heck out of the Halos: Which made them thin enough to fit under the small fan slots. This solves the compromise of using Noctua fans but wanting some LED RGB lighting to accent the innards of my build! For the next update, we'll finally start showing how we put this baby together. Took a lot of patience as this was my first sandwich style ITX build. See you all on the next update!

I've finally gotten around putting up pics of the final product--but due to my busy sched I decided to upload it on instagram first: https://www.instagram.com/p/CL8YHaVH-TP/ I'll upload in-progress pics and completed pics on here at some point--albeit retroactively.

Update: Thanks for the help folks! The "We'll get you some adapters instead" speech worked lol. Case closed hahah

Ah! That's fascinating. Basically bridging the signals from on layout to another.

*My mind rn*: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN! No seriously, thanks! I'll use this in my speech check/argument. lol

Only one I found is this 1650: But the 1650's 33% slower than the current 1060 6GB card we're trying to match. Yeah personally am a proponent of DP for my personal stuff. Was just looking to see if there are any solutions right off the bat. I guess we're going with adapters! Wish me luck convincing the client

I guess so. Client says they don't trust HDMI - DP converters--those shouldn't have any loss in quality right?

Hello! As the title says, I need a GPU that has at least 3 HDMI Outputs. Caveat is that it needs to be equal or better than a GTX 1060 6GB. Any help would be appreciated!

Hahahah No no, I did trade over running on 2 hours of sleep daily for 3 weeks hunting for that thing. Finally got it via BestBuy last October

Mine was pretty surreal--everything felt smoother. Switched to a 144Hz monitor two months ago (Overclocked it to 160Hz recently though). Decided to play Valorant with NVIDIA Reflex and GSync on. First time I won a Deathmatch in the year that I've played. I noticed that I'm reacting to peeps popping out faster? Might be placebo but who knows. My eyes see it

I agree that it's thermal throttling, but it's a laptop? If you're able to feel the air come out then the fans able to breathe hmm. Thermal paste issue? Not that experienced with laptops.

Hmm, well KVMs that I've used only switch multiple USB/Display inputs into certain outputs. You might need a thunderbolt 3 dock/switch or something similar for this need--I just personally have not encountered such a device in my line of work yet.

So if I'm getting this right, you want to switch all your peripherals and displays to either the laptop or the NUC/"ServerPC" at will without moving/plugging cables around? Why not look into triple-monitor KVM switches? I personally have only used dual monitor switches but for the same purpose for my professional work. Thing about them is that they're a little finicky at times. https://www.amazon.com/CKL-Switch-Triple-Monitor-DisplayPort/dp/B089NNJ6DP Thoughts?

Aaaahhh it's MONDAY?! Yeah something about today made me think it's Saturday lol. But I guess it's just some bored DDoS cannon user. Hope it resolves soon though.

Not just you, getting the same thing here.
