Say hello to the newest example of silly things we want but don't need.

• Phanteks XT M3
• MSI B850MPower
• EPYC 4585PX CPU
• Lian Li GA II LITE RGB 360mm AIO
• 32GB V-Color Manta XSky 6000 CL26
• ASUS Prime RTX 5080 OC
• Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W PSU
• 2TB NVMe x3 on mobo
• 2TB NVMe x4 on Sabrent Quad 4X card
• 1TB SATA SSD and 2TB SATA SSD
• Cougar single-frame 360mm reverse-blade fan trio in case floor

I am updating the BIOS now and will reach out again to Svet about doing a BIOS mod for it.

 

 

 

Sheesh, that's a powerful micro atx build right there! What is it's final destination?

 

I was just looking at that MSI B850M Edge MB for the Jonesbo Z20 I have. It is a portable SFF but supports MATX and I was just fighting an uphill battle trying to stick to an ITX board in it. I like that it is a 2 dimmer too.

It's mine. I am going to sell the Strix build with the 4090 locally.

Couple of new additions to the roster.

 

Traded one of my 5700 XT's to a coworker for his 6500 XT. It'll act as my frame Gen mule on the TV and main gaming monitor. 

 

The second was my first real GPU. Anyone care to guess what it is?

Nice trade. I think you made out better than your coworker did.

 

First GPU? Man, that's a hard one. There have been so many over a long period of time. I'd just have to take a wild guess and say something like an 8800GT or maybe a Radeon Pro / All-in-Wonder Pro (both were AGP, before PCIe was invented). Maybe I am dating myself by guess one of those oldies. I can still remember running Voodoo and Matrox cards before NVIDIA or AMD.

Just realized you cant see the connector, its definitely PCIe 2.0 sorry about that lol

 

The 5700 XT gave him a 100% boost in performance and double the VRAM. I just needed something else that was "newer" mainly for the HDMI 2.1 connector. The card may not be able to handle 4K Frame Gen but didnt want to buy anything until I could figure out what works for me. 

Gives me something else to submit into hwbot also

 

I gave up the 3090ti for FG, installing the drivers for both vendors is such a huge headache and Microsoft likes to muddle with settings without user input. Keeping to one vendor should eliminate that hurdle but i'll know more tomorrow when the 100mm ribbon arrives

I traded one of my Gigabyte 3 fan 5700 XT's for a 3 fan Gigabyte 6500 XT. Cant recall the last time I used a GPU that only had 2 I/O ports outside of maybe laptops.
