Your PC ATM

[GamerGuy]

With the recent purchase of an Omnidesk 2020 Pro, I was able to reorganize the mess of cables that would hang at the back. My old dinky desk was a cause of much consternation when it came to space and cable management (see pic below)

With the new desk, the cable management kit came free with the purchase of the desk, I now have a much tidier setup, dunno how I'd lived with that terrible cable mess for so long...

Your motherboard bios is pretty old. I'd update it as it's never a bad thing to do with AM4 platform. https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-C...ing/TUF-GAMING-X570-PLUS-WI-FI/HelpDesk_BIOS/

The latest non-beta from ASRock for the B550 PG Velocita, is 2.10, from what looks like August, 2021. So albeit the user has Asus, it's not far behind.

Isn’t that how it goes? Your baby gets replaced with a newer model, and then gets neglected

Went for RGB

Left ram stick shows CPU temp by changing colour, right one shows GPU temps.

My meme build since October... I still haven't gotten around to tweaking the mems

 

[oxrufiioxo]

Went from 6 QL/ 1 LL/ 3 ML to 7 T30/ 3 ML as expected I only dropped 2-3c avg over a 2 hour stress test which is basically margin of error when enforcing a max rpm of 1250 so at least with how I use them it makes little difference the real benefit of them for me is going from 14 cables to 3.

These fans having 3 modes is really nifty 1000/2000/3000 depending on how someone plans on using them up to about 1500 they make less noise than my gpu and are definitely quieter than my ML/QL at the same rpms why pushing more air. Overall very impressed.


Don't feel bad for my 6 QL they will be going into an RGB focused build I will be doing before the end of summer. They just spent most their time off with my current main build because they reflect off my Oled

New


Old although a ton of shit has changed since this photo but its the only one I have with a clear shot of the OG fans

She sure is purty!

I have been using that Open RGB program, I like it because it is very light weight.. no pun intended

I had to power down the system and unplug the 24 pin and give it a rotation before plugging it back in. I was getting unstable voltage leading to crashes.. she’s nice and tight again, can’t really oc the GPU though and daily it.. ahh well. Other than that she is good

have straightened the cable management and changed the colors a bit. i like my little pc cave

Is there really some specific reason that you have to post a GIF with every post you make @plastiscɧ ?

i like these gifs very much. and it is something individual to speak with images. i find it has something "unique" to express oneself. for me
it's practically a parallel statement, like emojies in whatsapp for example. you can emphasize or clarify things that are normally only possible in spoken dialog.

I've been wondering that..

Yeah, but with every comment you make? I mean, it's not a big deal, but it seems like a time consuming thing...

most of the time it is written a bit more than just a monosyllabic comment.
and no it's not time consuming at all; basically you only have to enter a single keyword (usually on topic or the last one written) - or do you think i scroll through 100 images every time until i find one i like?
i am over 40 years old but i really want to do something useful with my remaining time, be sure of that.

I am a big fan of this.

Nope its just a cablemod vertical bracket

 

[de.das.dude]

Nope its just a cablemod vertical bracket

ah, my case has a inbuilt vertical slot, but i am afraid it will choke the gpu fans haha.

This is my testing system. It's currently home to my old GPU, and I just put my old PSU in it.

For a case with zero options for cable management, I'd say I did alright. It's still a mess, but I don't know how much better you'd be able to do without custom cables.

This system has an LG WH14NS40 for ripping Blu-rays and PS3 games, and another DVD drive with modded firmware to read Xbox 360 discs.

The boot drive is a 240GB Kingston UV400 and the data drive is a 2TB Seagate Barracuda.

Well it was time for me to actually get on and swap out a few bits and pieces for my main rig... After receiving my card from my best mate in the US about 6 weeks ago, enough was enough, time to swap, so here we went a few days ago

Before -



After




I do really like the first pic, it was put together in more of a way for ease of swapping things around rather than looking like a showroom piece and I'm not a fan of hard tubing personally, so I just went with it Finally got the GPU installed correctly and its running very well. The motherboard and CPU where switched out, before was a 3950X + Hero 8 board, now I have a 5950X and Hero 8 WiFi board.. Didn't need the WiFi as such (networked house - best move I ever did!!) and yeah, the rest is history Temps and such are seeming to be very decent as well, so win win I think!!

Happy chappy!!
