It's a computer haha. I tried to keep it minimal.

Specs in profile. Haven't really changed the stock fans of the H510, but I've heard it's not really worth it, and temps are alright (CPU load 67C~ using 125W, GPU ~57C edge, ~78C hotspot)

I'm surprised he's still rolling on 16gb of ram.

I ditched Zen 1 instead of upgrading it because it was hard for me to find compatible ram kits, 16 gb just doesn't cut personally these days.

I usually use more than 16GB, but funnily enough not much more than 16GB. I hover around 16~18GB of RAM usage with normal usage + gaming, but I also have a bad habit of not closing stuff. Most I've seen is 21GB when I was playing Borderlands 3 *and* had an Android Emulator running.

I imagine 16GB is quite enough if you don't leave everything open, except for professional stuff.

Obviously working is different. Sometimes having IntelliJ open and a bunch of other stuff and a debug session will push me above 24GB.

The GPU, CPU cooler, PSU and the VRM coolers suck the air from the side. "Dividing" the air currents at 2 points: 1. between the cpu cooler and the psu; 2. between the gpu and cpu cooler - causes turbulence enhancing the amount of air pulled in. The point is having all the main heating bodies separated from the influence of each other. The turbulence is the similar effect like the swirl flaps induce in the inlet manifold of the combustion engines.

I went back to my 5900X for a bit. I was able to squeeze TL-D14X into the exhaust.. I had to really put the squeeze on as it is a bit stiffer than TY-143. A 120mm fan in the exhaust just does not look right for this case. 1mm.. that’s all they needed to make it work with a 140 lol.. maybe 2mm :shadedshu:

Motherboard upgrade and case transfer done, I mean it only took me 7 hours...

I actually wonder how long on average does one build a pc?

As for the under the table photo, I forgot to take photos during the build; surprisingly exhausting.

A rebuild also fixed a problem of mine for sometime: my Deepccol Assassin 3 has a hard time cooling an 10900F running at 200w at 90c and under with two fans. Turns out I was being way too lenient with the thermal paste. Adding more (I couldn't even be fucked to clean off the previous application) fixed the issue. The cooler now performs along the same lines as I've seen in reviews.

Also MSI's Mystic Light can only control the gpu (I mean it has to given I'm using an MSI card) and the ram, but not the mobo or fans oddly; man rgb software really sucks ass.

And the case fans are running at max since pwm control isn't available if you run it through Fractal's fan hub; I did plug fan beside a pump header, which was right beside the cpu fan header, so 100% speed was probably permanent. Software control from Windows seems impossible; I hope bios will yield better luck.

Lastly I expected gpu temps under full load, all 400w of it, to increase since it loses the vertical air flow of the O11 Air Mini. Surprisingly it ran a few degrees cooler, probably just slightly lower ambient.

(And yes I will give the case a clean wipe sometime this week, dusty as hell this one)

The following day, this past Sunday, I upgraded my sister's rig from my ancient and piss slow X370, R5 1600, 2400 Mhz 16gb.

She wanted a ram upgrade, I ditched Zen 1 since finding QVL ram was difficult and Zen 1 was notoriously picky with memory.

My Asrock X370 Killer SLI mobo was shit too, mediocre build quality and only supported only up Ryzen 3000; I doubt it'd support a Ryzen 9 OCd though.

Since Canada Computers was running a bundle for a Z590 Asus Tuf and an 11600k for $330 Cad it was quite a nice deal; that particular Z590 board was kinda ass though, only 6 usb ports at the back and no Wifi. Build quality was really good, but not Strix good obviously, so it was substantially better than the X370 board it replaced.

Bought 3600 Mhz 16x2 ram kit too, but it went into my rebuild and gave my 3200 Mhz 8x4 ram to this build.

I didn't oc this build, just tweaked the settings so that MCE won't overwhelm this cooler; R23 score was 10000-ish multicore.

The O11 Air Mini was quite frustrating to work in for one simple reason: the expansion slots.

Getting access to the screws was impossible; a ratchet or some 90 Degree screwdriver was needed if you wanted to drive in screws with the screwdriver properly seated in. Since I didn't have a ratchet and wasn't about to go our and buy once since it -20c last weekend I just made do.

Given my experience with these two builds, I'm pretty burnt out from tweaking pcs for near future.

Possible plans for the near future:

- Finally get a 4tb M.2 Drive (the XPG SX8100 4TB PCIe 3 is currently sitting at $300 Cad; god knows about drive reliability on this one though or get Crucial P3 4TB PCIe 3 for like $340 Cad, at least this one I can trust.)

- A 4090; preferably either a Suprim, Tuf, or Founders. More so on the Founders because it's unique, then Tuf because 600w limit, then Suprim.

- Or a new case, one that's a massive downsize while retaining ATX compatibility; short list includes Cerberus X, Jonsbo D41 Mesh, Sliger Trego (though this once still seems like a concept).

- Turn that old X370 platform into an htpc, I have another 1080 Ti; just need a new ssd and a psu.

Motherboard upgrade and case transfer done, I mean it only took me 7 hours...

I actually wonder how long on average does one build a pc?

So many variables. A generic one maybe 15 minutes. But a fully customized one with a lot of cable management could take hours. Mine took around 4 hours and I had to custom fit the water cooler because the damn build has the slot for it to be installed, BUT NO VENTILATION for the radiator 0_0. Took my time doing all as well (enjoying it).

I was able to squeeze TL-D14X into the exhaust.. I had to really put the squeeze on as it is a bit stiffer than TY-143. A 120mm fan in the exhaust just does not look right for this case.

That's an FD Torrent, yeah? Pretty sure those are designed for no rear fan, relying on the fronts to create an inverse wind tunnel effect.

That works when the front fans are at max. There is a mount for a 120 but it looks funny :)

Edit:

Torrent Compact..
