  your system is begging for more watts man, the problem with mini pc or laptop are there's no way to increase them. whether you change the power brick from 65w to 300w, the system will still cap the power draw from the wall to it's original spec. I think your system will run better if the gpu draw power separately from the motherboard, those i7 definitely can running at 4.5+ ghz all core with no problem if it doesn't being considerate with his power-hungry neighbour haha.

  01MN631 or 01MN632 Heatsinks are copper and have VRM cooling provisions you can search Tiny5 65w heatsink. If you start from scratch simply get a 65w processor with 3ghz or so non turbo clocks and turn off the turbo in BIOS. The media playback and Zoom computer I set up for the hall has an 8700 with turbo turned off to help with temps. It also has the copper heatsink with thermal pads for the VRM.

  The power supply limits you from utilizing each full CPU and GPU performance. I would aquire a 180W Lenovo one and you will see no issues and don‘t need adjustments.

  Use the copper heatsink, or at a minimum add some cooling to VRM with thermal pads or a fan. Also 8700 is better than 9700 due to hyperthreading. If chasing performance make sure you are using Dual Rank memory (if it is 16GB make sure it has 16 chips per memory stick. Or it says "2Rx8". Or "Ranks: Dual" in CPUz. I have better CPUz score with dual rank 2400 than single rank 2666. (Rank does not mean channel. Run dual rank and dual channel.). Also run GhostSpectre to turn off what meltdown/spectre mitigations you may have. And possibly use older BIOS without microcode updates.

  Other option: Clevo P750 or P770, Dsanke BIOS and QTJ1 CPU. RTX3080 MXM. 30x series heatsink from TaoBao. Cost: 8700k 32GB Clevo P750TM1 $270. MXM 3080 16GB MXM $315. Heatsink $91 + shipping ~$40. QTJ1 CPU (optional) $70. Speed? Very quick. Currently waiting for the heatsink*, but even at 80w TDP (down from 165w) it is faster than old 1070. The 1070 MXM is actually faster than the desktop 1070!?!? But the MXM 3080 is more alike Desktop 3070. * I was able to cut 3 corners off the original 10x GPU heatsink and drill new holes to mount it. But it is not ideal. New heatsink has water+air cooling option for $20 more, but I did not order that option.

  Lenovo M920x and P330 models would possibly come with dual NVMe slots and Quadro GPUs. Also you can have 65w processors if you get the copper heatsink that also has VRM thermal pads. I would highly recommend the 90w power supply. Or with GPU the 135w, 170w or 230w (Legion laptops or P series workstations came with these)

  Undervolting might eke out a bit more performance on this cpu, since at a lower voltage it can run a higher frequency at the same wattage, in theory. I've heard of such things. Assuming the BIOS supports that, of course. Also wondering if the better CPU supports a better ram speed.

Since the proportions after the extension is not too far off, the cream/beige color of the NEC is pretty close too. Thanks for the video

  Undervolt the gpu. With UV drop 8c my RTX A2000 with no performance changes. With 1200mhz core clock core + UV temps goes lower 15c Blower cards Work better in that cases. Three fans push hot air to the sides that case dont let out hot air to the sides and the temps raises quickly

  @vladimirotes54709 күн бұрын

  Good project, i follow it from the beginning with unconcealed interest. Couple of thougts: Afaik there are hardware locked 35w cpu power-limit in ur motherboard (m920q), and in m920x cpu tdp is bumped up to 65w. My suggestion is to replace mobo and cpu cooler from 920q to 920x model. CPU TDP will rise to 65w *BUT* motherboard's VRM would not be able to supply both 65w cpu and 75w gpu at once. So furtherly u would need either dedicated second PSU for gpu *OR* splitting power from ur current psu to 2 lines. Seems like its possible in this way: lenovo's standard PSU's voltage is 20v and gpu needs 12v. U can solder 2 wires L/N directly to mobo's square yellow lenovo mobo power connector, then reduce it from 20v to 12v with DC-DC module and then solder 2 wires L/N from this module to GPU 90degree expansion card 12v pins underneath of PCI-E slot according to pinout scheme. In this case u would get 2 independent power lines for cpu and gpu from one PSU without current strict limits. It sounds pretty tough to be honest but achievable in theory.

  @Mlarsen198510 күн бұрын

  would love for it to have another hole on top from where the cpu cooler can draw air in like the gpu does. and a solid front instead. maybe the option to use the round hole of the original powerbutton :) other that that, it is amazing work. the changes would make it a good option for a NAS

  Great video, enjoyed watching it. Recently I came across an idea somewhere that SATA power supply is not suitable for video cards, it is not designed for these currents. The person wrote that his video card died this way. I would not change anything from the plant, because it is thought out for its tasks and purposes. And when the task is different from what the manufacturer intended, it turns out to be a mess. Greetings from Ukraine, Odessa!

  @thinhdora10 күн бұрын

  I'm really glad you enjoyed and appreciate your opinion. About the death of GPUs, as I know, it's usually because of the voltage (overvolting), not current (directly). Poor voltage filtering from PSU could be a reason. The current could cause the issue indirectly, by melting the insulation and shorting the circuit. About the SATA power, I can't deny if we use the SATA connectors with different purposes other than designed purposes, there would be risks. What I did to reduce the risks is to use two SATA connectors to 8-pin for reducing the current. The RTX 4060 takes up to 110W(~9A@12V). A single SATA rail can withstand 50W(~4A@12V). The PCIe x16 also provides up to 75W(~6A@12V). So, in total, we have 3 rails for 9A, then I guess/hope a single SATA will take charge for ~3A. But, of couse, it's still theory. There're many other hidden risks I can't cover (like low quality adapter's connectors, high resistance wires, power delivery hierarchy of specific GPU models ...) which might affect the SATAs current. I need to do more measurement to ensure that. Thank you for raising awareness!

  If opening the case can fix the PSU thermal problem, I would just leave the case open. If it is dusty, I would just use a fan blower to blow out the dust while holding all the computer fans. I just think that SATA to 8-pin is not a good long-term option if you are a heavy gamer. It should be fine for casual gamers.

  I've seen people using multiple of those connectors for mining, and they say that the probability of fire increases dramatically if the power requirement is over 53W.

• 
  @thinhdora10 күн бұрын

  Yes, a single SATA are designed to support 50W at 12V (around 4A). So I tried using dual-SATA to 8-pin, to reduce current stress on a single SATA. My concern is that the SATA routed via the motherboard, not directly from PSU as consumer PSU. So the board might get current stress.

• 
  @Chris-fg4dx10 күн бұрын

  I see. If it can withstand the stress from mining, it is probably good. Yea, it may stress the motherboard a little bit. Replacing an OEM motherboard is not too expensive by the time it breaks.
