ARM-powered mini-ITX motherboard




"A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the ROCK 5 ITX coming soon and since then, samples of the Rockchip RK3588-based Radxa ROCK 5 ITX have been landing on doorsteps (or service points, screw you, UPS) of a lucky group of people and somehow I was one of those, so here’s a first look at Radxa’s latest Single Board Computer in a Mini ITX form-factor!

Over on the rear we have our DC 12V barrel jack input for power, USB-C, HDMI in, 2×2.5GbE (with PoE available), 2x USB-A 2.0, 4x USB-A 3.0, 2 HDMI outputs, 3.5mm microphone and headphone connections, and an SPDIF audio connection."

Fanless MSI Cubi listed




The passively-cooled version of the N100-powered MSI Cubi is now listed for $229. The fanless NUC supports up to three 4K displays and is sold as a barebone (bring your own RAM, storage, and OS). Unfortunately, the cooling solution looks very average, and by average we mean bad. The N100 is Intel's most surprising CPU in years but can run quite hot and a flimsy aluminum sheet doesn't look reassuring (get the MINIX Z100 for impeccable thermals).

My first fanless home server



"This is my first home server for me. I run proxmox on it to virtualize my windows 11 and some linux VMs and dockers for learning purposes. I just like the idea of total silent system, no fan, less noise and less dusk built up over the time. Components: HDplex H3 v3 case, HDplex GAN PSU 250W, Intel Core i5 14500, 64GB RAM, 2x 1 TB Samsung 990 Pro. CPU temp when I run Windows 11 VM with one Ubuntu Server VM is from 45-60 °C"

Desalvo Raspberry Pi 5 case review




"The Galactic case for Raspberry Pi 5 from Desalvo Systems is nothing short of amazing. It’s fully CNC machined from 6061-T651 aerospace aluminum and includes all Stainless Steel hardware. The Galactic case was simple to assemble with the Pi 5 inside and came with everything I needed. It’s machined superbly and fits better than most hands in most gloves. I love this thing."

MSI SPATIUM M570 PRO review




"In terms of performance, the MSI Spatium M580 Frozr led in all benchmarks in our tests. The upgraded NAND Flash running at 2400 MT/s, a large 8 GB LPDDR4 cache, and proper cooling drive some insane sequential reads and writes speeds out of the box. Furthermore, the heatsink ensures temperatures of around 50-52C while power peaked out at 9.9W and averaged around 5.5W during our testing. The 14.1 GB/s Read and 12.7 GB/s Write speeds are awesome, ensuring users that they are future-proof with a solid and fast storage solution."
