Those fans actually dropped the temperature a bit, even in a traditional case. They are noctua’s thin fans.

I don’t have this 3080 any longer, went to a 9070XT.

Oh, wait… 3060 died, how? Sometimes it’s fixable if you have a flow station.

It was $540. But admittedly, the ram came before the AI apocalypse. So it’s probably closer to $700 now. All off ebay, except the case & PSU.

Missed you comment on the performance difference to the steambox. It’s bad. The 4650G isn’t great. Played deep rock galactic at maybe 45 FPS.

I haven’t done benchmarks, but it’s about the speed of a GTX 1650, but being AMD it works much better on Bazzite (Linux)

Hey I got a huge system too. Gotta run my Jellyfin off some kind of “server”

Case: Raven RVZ02, CPU Ryzen 7800X3D, GPU RTX 3080

Edit

This was about 4 years ago. This is the system I sharpened my teeth on. Had to modify the 3080 to fit with a fan mod.

2060 6GB? Hey it’ll play most things. I have an RX580 kickin around here, and another SG-13 case. I might do another one if I can find an ITX board which takes ddr4 sodimm memory. It’s the only memory I have left from an dead laptop.

I build mini PC’s for fun. This is my main rig

Nice! How’d you cram your hardware in there? I had so much trouble.

Yeah man, had to cut out about 10x20mm of steel to fit the AIO tank. A minor modification. Good news: You only have to remove the PSU to upgrade NVME, CPU & Memory. I suspect when this AI bubble pops, i’ll drop 64GB @4000Mhz, and a Ryzen 5600G in it. wishful thinking…

I criticized ICE, and about 12 hours later I was met with a “Blocked by network security” page. The only option was to appeal to support, who wanted an explanation. I could still access my user settings so I went straight to the account deletion option.

I discovered Lemmy last week. Lurked for a while, then finally created an account. The experience is much better than Reddit so I say good riddance.
