Great PSU for Cheap!

hec HP585DB 585 W ATX12V Power Supply - No Power Cord
hec HP585DB 585 W ATX12V Power Supply - No Power Cord

Pros: Dual Rails, 585 watts, reliable

Cons: Cabling isn't that great, but for the price who cares!

Overall Review: I have used at least 30 of these for building mid range to higher end gaming computers, NEVER had 1 fail! Awesome PSU for an excellent price.

Most Critical Review

Not Orange like the title says, a pain to work on

CyberPowerPC SYBER C Case Orange Mini-ITX SYBER C Mini-ITX Gaming Chassis w/7 Color RGB LED, USB 3.0 Support SFX PSU Power Supply Black

Pros: Nice compact design that is very sturdy

Cons: Whoever designed the inside of this thing didn't do much testing on the final product. The power cable extension that runs from the back to the PSU is flipped the wrong way, forcing you to bend the wire very hard. Another issue is that no matter how you put in the power supply it wont fit right. I have an sfx psu and it doesn't fit right and I can only fit 2 screws into it. Luckily the top holds it in place.

Overall Review: I really want to like this case, but it's a nightmare to work on, and I have done nothing but built mini itx PCs for myself since around 2013. Also case is NOT orange as the title says, it's black.

Newegg lies! No usb 4!

Pros: Good board for the price, supports all the features you would expect for a 50 series.

Cons: no usb 4 older wifi 6e

Overall Review: I had an asrock b650e board, I upgraded to this one because newegg says it supports 40gbps usb 4, yea, that was a lie, best this board supports is usb USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C. It's still a good board, but if you need usb 4 buy something else.

Unable to update bios

Pros: Booted right up, recognized my 7950x haven't had proper time to fully test it yet, but appears to be running fine.

Cons: chipset fan is LOUD! cannot update bios, I have tried 3 different bios's from the site, every time it pops up the progress bar then the computer clicks off then back on to a black screen and will just sit there until you restart the pc.

Overall Review: Hope this is just a bug and something that can be addressed with another bios update because I really don't want to tear this all down after all the cable management I had to do.

Nearly perfect itx case

SSUPD Meshlicious Mini-ITX Small Form Factor (SFF) Case - One Tempered Glass Side Panel & One Mesh Side Panel with PCIe 3.0 Riser Cable - Black Color, Tool-Free and Easy Accessibility
SSUPD Meshlicious Mini-ITX Small Form Factor (SFF) Case - One Tempered Glass Side Panel & One Mesh Side Panel with PCIe 3.0 Riser Cable - Black Color, Tool-Free and Easy Accessibility

Pros: -Great airflow (fits a 280mm radiator) -lots of room for high end parts -looks great and is tiny

Cons: Only major problem is trying to plug in video cables. They include a 3 foot angled cable, but the problem is it's an hdmi cable and the angled cable covers 2 of your display ports, so if you have more than 2 monitors you are gonna run into problems. This seems like a major oversight. I solved his by raising up the gpu bracket as high as possible and using 4 x 20 ounce black bottlecaps and used them as feet. They are unoticable and lift it up just enough where you can plug in normal cables.

Overall Review: Absolutely great case, I have been trying to find the perfect itx case for years and could never find it till now. Despite the 1 flaw I am completely happy with this case. Be careful when you build in this though. -Make sure you mount your 2.5 drive and plug in cables to it before you install anything else. -get a sfx PSU. Yes atx can work but it is VERY tight and hard to get to work if you use a AIO. -Make sure you adjust your gpu bracket height before mounting the board or psu. -280mm rad does work, but you need to mount the tubes coming out from the bottom (correct way anyway) due to the holes not lining up correctly if you try the other way. 1-18-22 *UPDATE* I have now had 2 riser cables go bad, if you have to lower your video card it bends the riser cable and it will eventually go bad.

RAIJINTEK OPHION EVO WHITE, a SFF case (Mini-ITX), is designed to fulfill a smallest case built with max. possibility high-end, gaming and standard components.

Pros: Well designed case

Cons: Case looks used, scratches in paint, one of the thumbscrews looks like it was melted (its plastic) and the front panel connector cable is damaged.

Overall Review: I would love this case if it didn't look used, I'm half tempted to return it, but with the current pandemic who knows when I would get a replacement.
