Wow @Relentless, sorry about the mishap. The Sonnet III-D has a 16x slot for full length, full width cards. No modifications. Pure plug and play

I'll be interested to hear your results @ha1o2surfer. You may experience a performance limit with Thunderbolt 1 but you never know until you try. Best of luck

Hi @sgluhov, the smaller chassis from Sonnet does have TB2, however it doesn't provide support for full-length, full-width card support. Only has 8x slots so cutting is required (read the comment Relentless just made). The PSU for the PCIe board also has less power so that may impact performance or be insufficient power altogether. There may be other limitations I've heard about with that chassis regarding it's full plug and play capabilities. My opinion is, why bother with a smaller solution when the results are questionable. Pay a little more and know it works. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks @nak1017 and @sskillz. Appreciate the comments. The display is an ultra-slim Samsung S23C570 I picked up at Costco. Really nice for what I paid.

I dont care about their case - i can use it without case easily with my own atx power brick. And the price is 400$ so i am saving 600$ Why not?

Is it the same but just smaller and cheaper?
