The AIO and PSU included in the H1 has custom fitted tube and cable lengths. I doubt off the shelf 120/140mm AIO will fit due to the tubes, which would be a headache to most builders new to SFF. As for the PSU, it saves you the cost of getting 3rd party cables (which I agree is optional, but does make things more convenient for many users).It's limiting for a few, but it is very convenient for the mainstream market in general. As for the rest of us who like to tinker and may have PC parts lying around, NZXT already said they will consider a standalone H1 option if there is enough demand. I guess that is the point. They probably have done their market research and made the H1 bundle for the larger, mainstream market. Look at how they are marketing this case: popular youtubers, game streamers. No marketing in SFF forum.

Yeah. The whole bundle isn't cheap but it isn't terribly overpriced. I was expecting it to be more expensive, given the state of the SFF market and it's also NZXT's first entry to proper SFF. Not the case for me, I prefer more versatile cases like Ncase M1 and Sidearm T1. But I'd recommend it to friends who want to start building smaller PCs. Availability will be it's main advantage, on top of looks, collective warranty and not needing to worry too much about clearances and cable length.

Modular >600W Gold SFX for $80W? That must be a good deal. The one in the H1 is the Seasonic SGX650 which sells for $125-130. Corsair SF600 Gold was usually around that price too. For the AIO, the cheapest 120mm on PCPartpicker is $55. $75 estimate for 140mm is still very reasonable imo.

Lets assume $125 for the PSU (it's the SGX650), $75 for AIO (price for M22, the one in the H1 should be more expensive) and $30 for the PCIe riser. That leaves $120 for the case. It's reasonable considering the competition. It's in the ballpark of upper-midrange tower cases and way below boutique SFF cases like the A4, M1 and Ghost S1. As for standalone, NZXT said they might make one if there is enough demand.

Hmm, I wonder why the Palit GameRock is D tier. TPU noise/temps measurement for the Gamerock 2080 Super is comparable to Gaming X Trio/FTW3, better than AMP Extreme. The 2070 Super is also competitive with Strix/Gaming X Trio/FTW3. Is it purely down to PCB in that case? @LukeSavenije

According to this, it does have an AMOLED panel. Not sure why news sites are reporting differently. Seems to have a headphone jack in the video.

At the moment some E12 and SM2262 NVMes are plain better value for money. The EX920 and Sabrent Rocket are within $5 (for 1TB) of the MX500 while being much faster drives. They even dip below $100 sometimes.

Even now with the big camera module being attention grabbing piece of the design, it's sad to see Oneplus still settled for middling camera performance. As for the shape of the module itself, I'm indifferent. The rest of the phone seems pretty good, and OxygenOS continues to be my favourite Android interface.

Car manufacturers do limited run one-off concepts all the time, which are sold for seemingly absurd prices to those who can afford it. Why is it any different for phone manufacturers? It's more of a tech/art showpiece anyway.

MSI also had a 13inch ultrabook with a 1050. That SKU seems to have limited availability though, and no notable reviews whatsoever. No clue how that performs thermally.

But what about my SFF PC with the 3900X and Noctua L9? ?

I am genuinely curious, did AMD mention this anywhere in their packaging, its contents, or anywhere in their Ryzen product page? If there isn't any, they are just setting themselves up for a lawsuit. This isn't about the complexities and factors of achieving boost clocks, which I am pretty sure der8auer is quite knowledgeable in. This is more about the potentially misleading marketing of the 'boost clock' aspect of the CPU, which depending on the answer to my initial question, could have legal weight. Yes the performance difference is minuscule and won't affect your day to day usage of the PC. Der8auer said that himself and he still recommends the 3600/3900X over the competition. Again, the potential issue is pure marketing. People will find every bit of opening to sue. Not saying AMD is like evil or something if they did not elaborate on how the boost clocks can be achieved, but they can do better in terms of consumer orientation especially when it comes to the average consumer. And also protecting themselves from potential lawsuits. On another note, I was reading a local forum and saw some people trying to sell their Ryzen 3xxx because of this news and said they should have stuck with Intel. Pretty sure some are just trolling but I think some also aren't. LOL

I don't have any HDD, only an M.2 SSD. The sound definitely comes from the PSU. Also the sound is only present when the PC is off, so the other components should not be running and making noise at that point. The noise is gone once the PC is switched on.

Hi guys, I got this modded 1U PSU (Delta DPS-500AB Platinum) which makes a weird noise when it's plugged in but PC is off. When the PC is turned on the noise is gone. Video link: https://photos.app.goo.gl/m8CahnDNsWV1C1xX8The modder insists that it is normal. To quote (translated from Chinese): "It is the working sound of the switching transformer. This is the case for all 500W models".I have never heard this kind of noise from the previous PSUs I owned. I am hoping some of you guys who are knowledgeable/experienced with PSU's can chime in. I wonder if this is really normal or is it actually a faulty PSU. And of course, whether is it safe to use.

Well there is no denying that it is fast, but seems like Intel have messed up the thermal setup of this gen (see der8auer's video). I'm really curious to what Intel's reasoning is behind the increased die thickness.
