Grab yourself a Pint Glass at https://craftcomputing.store Follow me on Bluesky @CraftComputing.bsky.social The Nvidia RTX 4000 ADA SFF is one of my favorite GPUs on the market. Small, incredibly powerful, and with a little modification, the perfect compliment for the Minisforum MS-01. Back in December, I got hold of a custom 1-slot heatsink from https://www.n3rdware.com, and put together the Mini PC of my dreams. There was just one problem though... Inside the MS-01, the RTX 4000 ADA didn't have enough airflow, and would thermal throttle in as little as 8 minutes under full load. Today, I'm throwing every trick in the book at the 4000 ADA SFF to see if I can finally bring this 70W beast of a card under control. *Links to items below may be affiliate links for which I may be compensated* Check out N3rdware's full lineup of SFF Coolers and Cases at https://n3rdware.com Check out the Minisforum MS-01 with Intel Core i9-13900H on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3ODhm4E Or on their website: https://s.minisforum.com/3QlQHKw Mushkin Redline 96GB SoDIMM DDR5-5200 Kit: https://amzn.to/3ZmiMoU Corsair MP600 Pro 8TB Gen4x4 NVMe: https://amzn.to/3ZzGiQy WD SN640 7.68TB u.2 NVMe: https://amzn.to/41cGZkf PNY Nvidia RTX 4000 ADA SFF 20GB GDDR6 GPU: https://amzn.to/3ZCIjeM Support me on Patreon and get access to my exclusive Discord server.
