The fan on this board can be switched off entirely in BIOS. You won't need it for normal use, but you may want it for a pcie 4 m.2 ssd.

The only difference for connectivity between gigabyte b550 itx and x570 itx is the 2nd m.2 slot is gen 3. So if you've got 2 gen 4 drives,…

this is an SFX power supply.

If you want to build ITX in this price range, look into the Cooler Master NR200. Better compatibility for GPUs than the H210, has had…

That fan is able to disabled in bios. You might want it to be on if your m.2 drive runs hot, otherwise you can just keep it off.

I'm unsure if you are insinuating that the b550 itx boards split lanes. In case if you are... they don't split lanes with the GPU even if…

On paper, this is the best ITX sized AM4 motherboard around. If you get one without any issues, it's pretty awesome. BUT this model has had…

Not sure were you got that idea from. There's literally only 1 other AM4 ITX motherboard that has more USB ports than this one - ASUS x570…

There is a bit of a premium due to the niche form factor - the Small Form Factor community often jokes about the need to pay a "SFF Tax" on…

I figured it out too late, oh well. Downvote limit reached for the day.

If you want a laptop with the best available mobile processor (4900h) and 32gb of ram, you have to get one of these gaming laptops…

I take it you haven't played a pc game in a long time. On a traditional keyboard, there aren't any keys anywhere close to the arrow keys,…

"but check your own location on the site."

Those are the WASD keys. Commonly used for gaming. There are numerous "gaming" keyboards/laptops that have done this sort of thing. It is…

In his testing you can see that the VRM runs ~25 degrees warmer on the b450. That's quite a margin! That should still be within spec for…

copy/pasted from my response to another poster: front panel type c header 2nd m.2 slot 2.5gb ethernet better wifi/bluetooth I'd hesitate to…

front panel type c header 2nd m.2 slot 2.5gb ethernet better wifi/bluetooth I'd hesitate to put a 16 core on the b450i. It might be…

Userbenchmark is a terrible source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaWZKPUidUY&list=PLXS_RT-XQ2LeW7GumA2hHISoUKgPV81Wt&index=51&t=0s

On Ryzen, the speed of your memory also affects the speed of your CPUs infinity fabric. You'd really like to have the 3600cl18 over the…

I got mine for $537. Extremely pleased! Sorry for your loss :(

nope, the waterblocks are actually made for the reference design's pcb

You absolutely can! Some extra value in the card if you do. Won't be quite a true XT (somewhat lower FPS) but the difference is pretty…

That was an insane deal. I also seriously doubt we'll see another deal on that level for a 5700 at least until the next gen shows up.…

Excellent price for a vanilla 5700 - think I've only seen slightly better than this on eBay Plus. Reference blower cooler is on the louder…

I believe this is the cheapest it's ever been? Best I can recall is $531. I have to assume this will not come bundled with any games, so…

Both models are near the top of the charts. The ADATA tends to do slightly better in consumer workloads and the Silicon Power tends to do…

That is a heck of a deal on the 2tb model! The 1tb is a good price, but I'd recommend the Silicon Power 1tb NVMe for $177 + free shipping…

This is maybe slightly better for normal consumers, but to be honest, both are extremely good.

This model is a known good overclocker. The Patriot model is not.
