    For those wanting to protect he pc - use black chicken wire? :) Form in into the right shape and use black Isolation tape to fix it to the case - should be almost invisible

    Just an idea - that wouldnt Impact airflow in a measurable way (Amateur opinion)

    Yeah, I read that dust covers will be available as option later/after the campaign, that should keep all happy :D

    Just a question out of curiosity, what makes you go for fanless?

    For me, it was because of its novelty. :geek:

    Well, it's very zen like and I love that. I hate moving parts. And nothing should fight with the music I have in the background.

    Any opinions on Intel's upcoming Optane memory? Looks promising.

    Does it make sense to use Intel Optane 32GB module with SSD like Samsung 850 Evo?

    My reason for getting the Nsg S0 is the novelty as well. I'd like to see myself as a nerd and sorry: having a case like that is just a must have for me :)

    I was looking at the Motherboards again - b350 vs x370 - and I really dont see much difference between the two except for the sli part - usb-c and all that other stuff is on most b350 boards as well. chipsets differ some, but as far as i could find out not to the Point where it should make a difference for someone like me that is not going to do crazy overclocks. My main reason for now to consider x370 is the visuals - and the cooling of the mb i'm hoping those designs will provide - they just look so much better. I love the taichi - but I Kind of refuse to pay extra for wifi that I dont Need. also, i dont Need 12 usb ports o0 Actually, I dont Need anything those x370 offer me in plus of a b350.. its really just the Looks :D but do i want to pay a 100 bucks just for Looks?

    atm i'm in love with the AX370-Gaming-K7 from Gigabyte.. :)


    I don't know about you, but MSI's X370 XPower Gaming Titanium have my wallet hostage. I don't need anything of the X370, but those aesthetics.

    The Titanium was my favorite for a looong time and still is, for me, hands down, the best looking mb out there atm. But since I'm gonna have a black PC, I decided to go with my 2nd favorite - and that is the gigabyte ax370 gaming k7 - I think the brushed black should blend in nicely with the case. I ordered it yesterday because it was at a nice price (100 more than a decent ab350 board, but still 100 less than the titanium) - delivery time atm is given as 1 month

    Haha! I'm planning on a white on black setup! Wanted an all white rig, but that seems out of the window. That did set me thinking! Wonder if Calyos would be open to suggestions of an all white enclosure.

    Does anyone know if Calyos is consulting someone on building a good case? I mean even with case makes such as Fractal Design, Corsair etc etc, there are always caveats. I understand they are fighting function with cost there, but we are getting a premium case now. I do hope they are consulting reviewers on getting the features right. Are there any reviews out there of how building in the NSG S0 would be like?

    I think it would be really easy to make an all white case: just buy white sticker-sheets? (maybe make sure they are heat resistant?). dont know the name in english - maybe something like this?

    Amazon.de

    Calyos is working with a french modding group afaik - but I dont think there is any prototypes in testing as of this moment (could be wrong though)

    I'm so excited for tomorrow! Ryzen 5 revealed. I'm leaning towards the Ryzen 7 1700 atm - temperatures without OC are just amazingly low :)

    edit april 11th 2017

    after checking a few reviews: ryzen 5 1600x is a very good processor - but I feel that I can get more out of the ryzen 7 1700 - especially regarding the heat - it runs VERY cool when not overclocked (3ghz) and aparently some people get 3.7ghz out of it without upping the voltage and thus no difference in temperatures - so thats the way to go for me in the NSG-S0 . My build is almost planned out now - only waiting for the Vega 10 now :)

    I was wondering. Does anyone have an idea what would be an effective way to mount the Nsg on a wall?
