Where can I get a DE10-Nano in the UK?

Think Mouser or Digikey are your best bet. Of course if anyone knows anywhere cheaper…kuato_lives2021-10-01 16:02:11

hopefully get a chance to cnc machine my own aluminium case for it.

Just need to get the 3d model of it.

I would like to see that bud

All of the files are [here] but they're .STL's suitable for 3D printing. You might want to convert to STEP or something a bit more CNC friendly.

I have let Paul know that a few people may be in touch, he sells the full kit himself for £320 with a 3d printed case.

Missed an SD card as well, so add £15 for a 128gb, still considerably cheaper than the multisystem option.

Thanks mate

 

[kingtreelo]

Tbh I'll pay the premium just to avoid needing to do anything with Facebook!.

Most have a 59 WEEK lead time on DE10 nano…

 

[virtvic]

Beg your pardon - they have 180 in stock, that lead time was for their next order.

yeah, i think you have already mentioned you have ordered one

For anyone interested there’s now a dedicated twitter page for updates: Mister Multisystem

No announcement yet on when the second batch pre-orders open, but said there’ll be 1000 units available so think I’ll order the board with case and PSU.

Price-wise I make this (approx):

MiSTer multisystem board £170
Case £42
PSU £16
Shipping ?£10?
DE10 Nano (Digikey) £153 (actual cost for import to UK)

Total: £391

Haven’t included SD card/SCART/HDMI cable costs as I already have those but only plan on HDMI. I also think I’ll have to supply the PSU plug(!) but again I have several lying around.

Don’t quite understand the “deluxe” version pricing at £454.80 (pre-shipping), and a lot more expensive than the facebook alternative, but for aesthetics and ease of use, I prefer the multisystem. I just hope it works!

First review I could find on the Multisystem by an annoying Yank: Review

3D-printed case looks a bit naff for the price (internal surface not properly formed?!), but overall looks very nice. Only allows for one SNAC adapter so no 2-player, or did I miss something?
