Would be really cool to see a really maxed out mITX build with perhaps dual watercooled GPU, but in a really tiny enclosure. Think something like this.

I actually use RDP for the most part on that system.
 
"files" are basically torrents.
 
Cool thanks for the respose. I'm really not into the mood to have an adventure with that server, since people use the plex service alot, so I think I will just stick with w10 for now. It has served me well the last years, so why mess up the formula.

FreeNAS is primarily a File Server but it does have a Plex plug-in. The OS uses a WebUI for management so all you'll have if you plug in a monitor is a CLI Terminal.
 
You can remote into FreeNAS by either the WebUI (locally) or by SSH/SFTP (locally or remotely) and it supports networking file share protocols for both Windows (SMB), Linux (NFS), and MacOS (AFP).
 
I don't think you'll be running any torrent service off it unless you know how to set it up via CLI. FreeNAS has what it calls Jails for that type of use case. It also supports Docker and VM's using Bhyve so you could run an instance of Windows in a VM (though in my experience Bhyve isn't a great hypervisor).
 
For data integrity I would trust ZFS (what FreeNAS uses) over NTFS.
 
Ease of setup is subjective. The latest version of FreeNAS as a very updated WebUI but I haven't played with it yet. The older WebUI although very functional and organized is still a hurdle to understand and learn because of all the little features that are built-in.

There is (last I checked, because I installed it quite a while ago) a Transmission plugin for FreeNAS, but it's pretty bare-bones.
 
You could upgrade to a Pro license and use RDP (which is essentially seamless being a Microsoft protocol).
 
Like, via a browser? That's probably the one thing you can't do (easily) with FreeNAS. I have a Win10 VM on my FreeNAS server for such circumstances, but I don't use it often.
 
I don't think you have much to gain from FreeNAS, but if you up for the adventure, there's a lot of information about it.
 

yes you can. I do this

An Accelero IV would perform similarly and be easier to install. https://www.reddit.com/r/sffpc/comments/5zqhlo/gtx_1080ti_w_accelero_xtreme_iii_oc_in_ncase/
 
 

Why isn't this listed on youtube? @LinusTech

What about fan speeds and clocks? Just because the temps arent the same, dosent mean that there werent any differences.
 
This video proved nothing. Hopefully GN will do a proper video on it.
 
Also, 6:14 video with only 4:26 worth of actual content? Thats pretty bad

If you are going for silence, i would advise against the vardars. The ball bearings are terribly loud, and when you run them slow, you can hear it pretty clearly. And with the IPPC's they also have a annoying "ticking" from the motor because of the extra poles (compared to regular NF series.) I asked noctua about this directly, and it's not a fault. They are ment for industry applications, and therefore the silence is taking a backseat compared to performance.
 
I would strongly recommend the NF A14 (if you don't mind the colors), the Fractal Venturi HP140 or Be Quiet silent wings 3, but I would personally recommend the venturi.

Hooraay... Wrong information and flawed testing method ftw...
 
I mean come on man, did really nobody at one point took a step back and just looked at more than just temps?
We all know damn well nvidia boost 3.0 whatever thingy will just cause the card to go whatever temp it want and it will adjust fan speed and core speeds to keep it there...

yeah, just ordered 5 and they got shipped today. 
 
Geez what a nerd I am.

Super old post, but just talked with Be Quiet! And they are now scheduled for a q2 release.

Fratal Design's Venturi fans are pretty good while not being overly expensive for the most part.

I didn't really realize people complaining until now, but let me say that I got kinda pissed off with the 'Does Water Cooling your PC Also Cool Down Your Room? ' video, because it's so unnecessary. It's just the most basic physics that makes it completely impossible to cool down a room without removing the heat from that room. And you don't have to be an engineer or scientist to know that.
 
The other workshop are great and really helpful, just not this one.

Have you checked to make sure the card is fully seated? My 970 had an issue with flexing and pulled itself out of the slot over time. It would report random pcie speeds from x8 2.0 to x16 1.1 constantly til I figured out the issue.

Not sure why you need push/pull?

I was loving it until you used flex tubing =(
