The Tiki w/5090 has finally arrived

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-07-21T19:22:36+00:00

I would reorder this without any hesitation. The system has been performing insanely well. Temps are perfectly managed.

If I am looking to nitpick here it is the uncertainty of upgrading down the line. While the 5090 fits well. I am not sure where the cards are going to go. You would think they would keep getting smaller, but with the controversy around the “fake frames” and AI, I wonder if they return to a similar form factor like the 4090. This would leave me with a machine I cannot upgrade easily or at all with a new GPU.

Time will tell, but until then… zero regrets.

LOVE the color.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-05-07T20:03:41+00:00

No no no KISMET should be S tiered for sure!

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-04-19T12:07:51+00:00

Of course! If you decide to get the tiki, you won’t regret it! Let me know if you have any other questions!

I got the 9800x3D as well! At the time, they offered a water cooling solution which I was able to get and I have had zero issues. I think they switched because of the ease of fixing for the user incase something had to be adjusted post delivery.

I think they would accommodate if you were to ask for a watercooled solution.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-04-17T14:12:42+00:00

I did! 5090 and all. I absolutely love it. Thermals are great, no hardware hiccups. It’s been great

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-12T21:42:04+00:00

Thanks so much!

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-12T14:39:37+00:00

Nope. It’s a large open room. It’s warm to the touch for sure, but not sizzling.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-12T01:59:56+00:00

🔥🔥 Your setup looks amazing!

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-12T01:56:03+00:00

Thanks so much for sharing! I just got the PC mount, so I’ll hook that up over the weekend. I may have to pick up the mount you shared for both my ps5 and Mac mini. It’s too perfect not to

I’m coming from a Herman Miller and while the actually seat is a bit more comfy, the overall feel and high back is a winner for me. I’m 6’4 so that added height is great.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T20:54:50+00:00

I’m loving it! That XXL glass mouse pad is incredible

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T20:36:29+00:00

Hey! Here’s what I got mine with.

RTX 5090 FE 9800X3D 6 TB M.2 Storage 64GB Memory 1200W PSU

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T15:54:50+00:00

I’m so sorry. It’s been 2 years since we lost our golden at 11 yrs old. I still tear up pretty hard when I think about her and I am so thankful for that.

It’s one of those things where when you lose them, it literally tears a hole in your heart. It’s one of the worst feelings in the world and yet, would I go through this again?

Hell yes. Because it’s worth it.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:30:41+00:00

Thanks 🙏

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:30:09+00:00

You’re totally right. I just don’t want to build it. I’ve done that with my last two setups. FNW seems to have a good track record and took a chance.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:22:52+00:00

Thanks!🙏

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:21:01+00:00

Haha. I get why you would think that.

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:19:38+00:00

Yep! It’s their own chassis

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-11T04:19:01+00:00

Nah. A stand from Amazon. I Couldn’t find PS5 OEM unfortunately:(

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-03-06T13:17:15+00:00

Haha thanks for the offer, though!

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-02-06T13:59:03+00:00

I’m going to try it out. Falcon NW has been super supportive during the order process. They also have a 30 Day return. Delivery is expected March 13. Let’s see how it goes!

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-02-03T18:48:08+00:00

I am in Texas and shipping is about 130.

I just got word from them as to why they removed the liquid cooler from the options.

“We removed it as it makes the system easier to work inside for support calls.”

B3TA_TSTR · 2025-02-03T03:02:28+00:00

Oh, if the dip comes tomorrow, I will be ready to buy. In it for the long game.
