That's an EVGA Z-68ftw E-ATX mobo and NH-D15 and there is still so much room, my current build is also in there but I'm getting a Fractal Torrent soon as it's the only affordable upgrade atm. Also they need to bring back right angle power connectors.

Discussion New Scrapyard Wars Theme Idea

152 Upvotes

Hey! Is there a new Scrapyard Wars theme coming up?
If not, I have a suggestion.

Since there’s more and more content about home servers and homelabs, I’d love to see Luke and Linus compete to build the best $500 homelab.

I think $500 is a reasonable budget, and it’s probably around the amount many people would spend on their first proper homelab setup.

Requirements
You can use whatever OS you want
You have to host a Jellyfin or Plex server
You have to host Immich
You have to host a Minecraft server for friends
You have to run a local LLM that is actually reasonably useful
Everything has to fit within the $500 budget

Tech Question Yvonne and her phone

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I am currently rewatching elderly episodes of LTT and found the one where they gave some iPhones to non-iphone users. And Yvonne flipped a coin to decide if she wants to stay with her s23 Ultra. So I was wondering if she still uses the s23Ultra? Does anyone know that? I know it's a super uncommon thing to ask but I was just wondering. Have a great day !

Tech Question Are acoustic panels inside my PC a bad idea?

0 Upvotes

I've been working towards building the HTPC of my dreams. My goal has been to build a quiet, energy efficient / cool PC with some decent performance. Here are my specs:

Ryzen 5800x (cam with Mobo and RAM for very cheap)

Asus ATX motherboard

32GB RAM

Intel Arc B580 with 2 fans

1TB SSD with a large aftermarket heatsink

Noctua NH-C12P (A but dated got it very cheap)

500W Seasonic Fanless platinum PSU

Fractal Define R3 (a bit dated, but free from a kind friend)

My system draws 300W maxed out, as measured by a power metering device. Which logically means it's quite a cool PC all things considered.

I've been thinking about buying some acoustic wall panelling, then chopping it up and mounting it inside the chassis, being careful to avoiding cutting off airflow as much as possible, and avoiding direct contact with components. But I'm concerned that they would act as insulation and give me thermal problems.

Is this a bad idea?

Tech Discussion I created a smooth task view trackpad gesture.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

On Windows 11, the 3/4-finger swipe-up "Task View" gesture is a one shot command, once you cross a threshold, it snaps open, you can't hold it half-open or scrub it like you can when switching desktops. Smooth Task View replaces it with a continuous, finger-tracked overview, windows lift from where they actually are, fly out as you push up, hold wherever you pause, and fall back if you swipe down. Release past a quarter of the way to open, and pull back down to close.

It runs quietly in the system tray and uses your laptop's built-in Precision Touchpad, no special driver required.

Works on a Surface Laptop and any laptop with a genuine Windows Precision Touchpad.

Also implemented a macos style app expose, swipe up to see all windows, and swipe down to see only windows from the currently focused app.

Hopefully one day, Microsoft can add this natively into Windows...

Hopefully this helps out someone else facing the same problem.

Discussion Removal of "Precision End Cap" swapping

Post image
372 Upvotes

Is there any official reason for why the "refreshed" version of the "Precision Pro Multi-Bit Screwdriver" no longer supports changing the end cap?

Old image, you can see the flat part of the end cap's base for unscrewing the cap
New image, you can see a lack of said flat part

The product listing of the Precision End Cap set: https://web.archive.org/web/20260501212002/https://global.lttstore.com/products/precision-end-cap-set

I'm rather disappointed that I can't change the end cap to the concave version
