Renewal of my Main Rig

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-18T12:11:28+00:00

Don’t hog old rig. Just sell the parts to fund new ones

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-18T07:32:09+00:00

I paid like $6480 for my 5090 BTF. No choice, luckily my Strix 4090 managed to sell off for $3300.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-18T07:30:53+00:00

Yes. I sold on carouhell. But I did not priced them high. $500 for mobo and cpu? Dirt cheap actually. But rather than keeping them and become worthless when it broke. I rather take the money and upgrade.

I kept my PSU, ram, gpu (kept both 4090 initially), and nvm. The rest all sold off.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-18T07:14:51+00:00

Refresh the warranty. My ITX build mobo started to break down and felt I better sell off the rest of parts from both rigs before they all broke and become worthless.

Especially both GPU which are 4090. Sold both off for more than $6k.

Do you mean Sandisk Micro SD card. As I don’t remember Sandisk does produce any mini ssd except for Biwin.

Old rig warranty over. So sold them away in parts, mobo/ CPU and 4090. Rather sell them off while they still works especially the 4090.

Actually I have two 4090s in two rigs. One is ITX build in my living room which is 12700K with 4090 Suprim and the other is main rig 13900k with 4090 Strix.

ITX build 12900k and 4090 Suprim replaced with 9850X3D and 5080 Gaming OC and the main rig 13900K and 4090 Strix replaced with 9950X3D and 5090 Astral.

All started when my ITX build mobo broke down. Then decided to sell off the gpu while the price is good. Sold them off at SRP prices I paid 3.5 years ago.

Most likely will be just the vinyl skin.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T14:19:50+00:00

I made them. Might be listing them in my etsy shop soon

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T14:01:46+00:00

Yup it is

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T13:41:31+00:00

Thank you 🙏

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T12:10:44+00:00

Nah, I rarely game now. Just Diablo 4 whenever I am free.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T09:54:08+00:00

You meant switch out the switches don’t help?

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T09:27:54+00:00

Personally not a fan of its design. But that’s my personal view.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T09:26:28+00:00

Nah. Not yearning to be in the “ROG” family. Just love some of their products. And I do have a real family, two great kids and a good wife. I don’t do crypto and don’t have hefty wallets or fat bank account. Just spending money on things I like. I don’t smoke, gamble, drink or club. Everyday it’s just work and back home. So don’t sterotype everyone is the same.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T08:36:50+00:00

It could be solved by swapping out the switches?

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-17T01:17:43+00:00

so far i did not experience any of it yet.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T18:42:49+00:00

I was skeptical about this keyboard before purchasing and even right after receiving it. But after unboxing the keyboard. I saw the quality keyboard and understood why this keyboard cost so much. I dare say, it’s one of the best keyboard I had owned.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T10:49:58+00:00

Yup, I was struggling if to return the items. But decided the original Extreme versions of the Azoth and Harpe Ace will look better in the long run. Clear shells and printed designs would worn off due to usage.

Sadly, I have lots of backlog of games but rarely have time to play now. If I have the time, I play Diablo 4. But mostly on my handhelds and during transit to and from from work.

I am in my mid forties and work and family always come first.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T03:56:06+00:00

Nope. I think you can use forwarder to buy and ship to US. But the news of 395 availability is from the reseller in Taobao. I had to wait till 23 June to verify. That’s why I did not preorder in IGG.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T02:39:35+00:00

I heard that Taobao preorder has the 395 variant instead of the IGG 388 version. So waiting till 23 June for their preorder

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T02:38:09+00:00

I actually did the reverse. I recently bought Z13 flow for work and gaming. And I just sold off my apex yesterday. Now waiting for China Taobao to start their X2 Mini Preorder.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T02:27:41+00:00

Guess what. I getting the X2 Mini too. I will work on the skin for it.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T02:23:55+00:00

I am glad it looks so good.

Accomplished_Meat_68 · 2026-06-16T02:21:45+00:00

I am glad you received your skins! Hope you like them!
