Hakua is a system I built from a Basic Talos™ II Bundle (Dual CPU) plus components sourced at local retailers, as detailed below.
Component | Brand | Model | Cost |
---|---|---|---|
Case | BitFenix | Aurora | $135.75 |
550W PSU | Corsair | TX550M 80+ GOLD | $104.87 |
PSU extra EPS cable | Corsair | CP-8920115 | $12.02 |
64GB RAM | Kingston | KTH-PL424/16G x4 | $1243.63 |
512GB NVMe storage | WD | WDS512G1X0C | $245.81 |
PCIe to M.2 adapter | DeLOCK | 89370 | $30.63 |
Graphics card | MSI | Radeon R5 230 1GB | $61.51 |
Sound card | Creative | Sound Blaster SB1570 | $43.11 |
Internal USB2 cable | Akasa | EXUSBIE-40 | $9.14 |
Total | $1886.47 |
The BitFenix case works reasonably well, although the mounting stud compatibility leaves something to be desired.
The following mismatches between front panel and motherboard capabilities exist:
- There are no NIC link or Fan fail LEDs on the front panel (not a big issue)
- There are no Identify or NMI buttons on the front panel (again, no biggie)
- The front panel has two USB3 and two USB2 connectors, but the MB only provides two USB3 and one USB2 connection internally, so one USB2 connector remains unconnected
