I'm getting a new PC for productivity tasks and general home use (maybe some occasional gaming...). I've analyzed a few options, but finally went for a Mini ITX system in Node 304 - something I've dreamed about ever since I've read a review of this case (sadly, not on TPU ).

Most of you may not know Fractal Design, but the company has been making a splash with their unique enclosures for a competitive price. The company also sells power supplies, case fans, and a few accessories.

May I use nonECC memory for Supermicro X11SCL-iF + i3-9100F? I've heard that it's possible to use nonECC memory with i3, and it's impossible with Xeon, is it true? I just don't want to spend more money on memory than CPU+Motherboard cost.

The same rules apply if you take out two of the drive cages to squeeze in a 310mm graphics card. To get anywhere near a tidy build in the Node 304 a modular PSU is a must.And remember that if you buy a >800W PSU, chances are it's expensive, so it's well sorted out and with a high quality fan (AX1200 is a good example). I've taken over the thread to turn it from a new case thread to an actual owners club. I am open to suggestions, so please let me know if you have any comments or any thing else to add. But quality of PSUs under 500W varies a lot more, because manufacturers have to keep the price down.
