My light Internet era articles: beautiful and practical both - acrylic mute thin-ITX desktop office

Hello everyone, After a semester of server noise baptism, I realized that this game is an airport apart from playing virtualization and video...and the mess is really not suitable for me. Then I moved the server across the table...there was a glass block that was much quieter. It is a small platform that is designed to create a job that is truly comfortable and efficient. This article is about the process of building an HTPC office machine on the table.

The requirements of my playing machine are: low cost, low, low! Forced high, high, high! It is also good to be comfortable watching! Aunt Zhang Xiaobian compelled me to use a cat shop dog house more than I like a certain treasure, then I put the model and the cat and dog home link thrown out, everyone has love to search well ~ some rare benefits I also Will paste a treasure home.

First, finalize the platform: 1155 stitches (no money at the time)

On the motherboard, I chose Gigabyte H77TN, back panel 4 USB3.0 ports, Gigabit LAN, Thin ITX board type.

CPU, I choose I3-3220. As a desk office, it does not require graphics and high performance. Mute + low temperature is the king.

Memory, DDR3L 1600 4G can, of course, 8G is also good, but the recent memory is not expensive?

Team Low Voltage DDR3 1600 4G Notebook Memory 189 yuan from Taiwan's memory brand Shiyan Technology, in 14 years to maintain their global top ten market share, but still shrinking compared to 13 years. This DDR3 1600MHz 4G notebook memory is the basis of Shiyan notebook memory, voltage 1.35V, lifetime warranty, CL = 11 is the most basic product for 1600MHz, but for ordinary users is also enough.

For power supply, I choose 12V external power supply. I bought a 19V 4.74A. 90W pull one machine easily.

This board is based on HP's standard, the interface is a round mouth with a needle, diameter 7.4mm, diameter 5.0mm, remember to remember!

This kind of machine power consumption is very low, the power is not afraid of frying ~ this is the cheapest ~

Then the chassis, I chose an acrylic chassis, fashion beautiful and compact ~ ~ disadvantage is only two 2.5-bit ...

Assembly is simple, but radiators are limited. Intel original radiator can not use I did not try, in short is to buy a super-thin ultra-cheap heat. To be honest, this machine can only press a heat sink, but unfortunately there is no way to detect the fan.

There is a thin piece of wood! The sense of mini is good

There is a full-height msata2 (3Gbps) interface and a half-height miniipcie interface on this motherboard. I think that msata2 is sufficient for office machines. After all, it is only a 4K upgrade, so I bought an Intel 525 120G msata disk. The SF2281 master is not known for its performance, just with this half-speed interface, haha. The reason why you do not choose the 2.5-inch solid state is that it is not easy to understand, and what acrylics pursue is beautiful.

Now that the solid state is really expensive... or MLC+SF has good mastery, it's a lifetime...

Wireless network card, dual-band 300M like. Don't forget to go with an IPX to SMA cable, and leave an SMA antenna hole on the chassis (which is the kind of antenna for the router). The switch cable is about 3 blocks, and the antenna has everything from five hairs to four to five pieces. The general sellers of switch cables have antennas to sell. Some stores sell all three together and save a shipping fee. It is OK to buy a piece of NIC casually. Of course, if you think it's ugly to stick out an antenna, it's not impossible to buy a patch antenna, but the signal is worse. And where is the acrylic box attached? (squint)

Slight installation steps, no technical content. Only attention should be paid to the issue of line management. As a phototaxis creature, I added a red LED light bar to the top...purely personal preference. To achieve this, simply stick a light bar on the backplane, and then use the motherboard's own SATA power supply to switch to a large 4D port. The cable will be placed on the 2.5 hard disk drive under the motherboard. Basically, this is the effect, it is really no good condition to take pictures.

A USB HUB is connected to the back panel, a small speaker is connected, and two 3.0 ports are left. Others are stuffed under the table.

Look through the chassis inside the parts ~

Only the chassis switch, a small part of the SATA power supply cable and a CPU cooling fan wire are on the front, and they are all hidden.

Above is the 525 solid state, the following is Broadcom dual-frequency 300M network card.

It's quite a place to sit on the table!

The heat dissipation is just right. It is maintained at about 35 degrees for one afternoon, and it is 42 degrees-45 degrees for one day and one night.

A small partner will ask you, this 120G pure solid fast is fast, how to do not save enough files?

You look at the small box on the left hand side of the picture, and there are things on the monitor. Then move on to the following series of articles to see how I can create a light office environment with a super geek range.
