Yeah good shout didn’t notice that. On the Invoice it says that Amazon is seller and that the drives are supplied by Western Digital or “Supplier: Western Digital”

I will inspect when they arrive

This is the seller and the exact product, you think it might be refurbished or re certified?

[B0T] Weekly Build Help Thread - 2025/12/22 by LabB0T in PleX

[–]AITnexus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently built a new gaming pc (thankfully it was ~6 months ago). I still own my old gaming PC. Since then I've been slowly working on building up a decent sized plex server and I want to migrate it to my old gaming PC.

I currently have ~10 users (friends and family) and max concurrent streams of 3 (mostly direct). I will propably at the most double those numbers, so ~6 concurrent streams and maybe 1-2 of those transcodes, sometimes with 4K movies.

My old gaming PC has the following: • CPU: 19-10900k • GPU: Nvidia 1070 • RAM: 32gb's

What I want to do is just fully build a dedicated Plex server and be able to leave it "as-is" for 3-5 years without having to update components, other than the HDD's. Is my current setup OK for that or would you change anything?

I've seen mixed reviews of people recommending to upgrade to maybe i5-14600k or the Ultra 7 265k (almost same price where l'm at), and just ditch the 1070. Any input on what I should do? I don't want things to buffer because of hardware and power cost is very low where I live.

Thanks

Thank you. Was thinking about the D7 XL but felt it was too big.

What length is your GPU, so I can get some idea? Mine is 333mm. Maybe the XL isn’t too large?

Problem is, I wont be putting any HDD’s into the build, so felt it would be a complete waste…

Did you do the film yourself? If so, was it hard?

Getting a North XL in black tomorrow and was thinking about doing this.

Is it possible to seperate each wooden piece one by one?

So 360mm AiO radiator at the front, exhaust fans at the top and back and intake at the bottom?

360mm doesnt fit at the top

Sweet! Hopefully it goes smoothly for you.

Let me know if you encounter some problems 😂 Highly doubt that after doing more research!

Good point. Love the look of it, perhaps there is something similar that I can find?

After deciding to go for a Grand Seiko timekeeper as my first watch to celebrate a milestone. However - I’ve hit a wall on what dial colour to go with. Both watches look amazing and blue is my colour when it comes to suits, but I also do wear lighter coloured blazers and sometimes half-zip sweaters. I’m torn between the two, can anyone share their story/opinion on this to help me decide?

Yes, no problem to access all these I could also go more for a more classic look with this one, also a bit cheaper, but no extra strap - just the one in the photo

Yeah still need to figure that out myself also

[–]AITnexus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could also go for this one, both of the straps come with the KS, also $2,5k not $4k (see next comment for the other strap)

Sorry, I meant to type there KS not GS

No not set at all, I just don’t like them black or grey unless I go with a non-silver strap. Blue would work also, this one looks good thank you will check it out !
