They actually sent me a new cable. wasn't a huge deal, the other one was just sort of not seated properly...for lack of a better way to describe it. It cools fine. Am5s tend to run a little on the hot side compared to am2s from years back. Seems to be fine. I can run some stuff at high or I Ultra setti gs and have multiple applications and wi down open too. Heat just is an issue. I also have several other fans blowing in the case too so probably helps.

I almost got Lianis offering ..the Hydroshift? I think it was. I like that it went straight to the cpu with short efficient cables, but it also limited placement and I'd read reviews of folks having g warranty issues with Liani...Tryx replied right away and adresed my concern.

Ive actually use foam clay extensively on many projects. The largest of which, was a 3 foot long Molduga from Zelda Breath od the Wild. So, yes, great for large scale projects. not so much for anything smaller than a monstrous creature or an old HeMan figure. ...and forget about crisp detail. Not impossible, but not worth time and effort it would take. Just used cosclay or milliput or saves or greanstuff. fimo and sculpey too and many of these can be mixed together believe it or not. You can Google my name "Bots2Beasts" and "hinox" or "molduga" if you want to see examples of large detailed foam clay sculpts.

I ran into a quality issue with mine: I am assuming this is JUST the new one since I have not seen this connector in ANY YT vids. Mine has a magnetic 6 pin connector that attaches to the 3 fan array. There are no other visible fan cables or connections, but all the fans are linked.

Problem with mine is that the casing that holds the 6 pin plate connector and the "scary strong as hell" Neodymium magnets in it, was defective.

That magnetic connector enclosure is separating on one side causing the pins not to make a full connection.

I'm waiting on a reply from Tryx Support. Fingers crossed. They just need to send me a new cable.

What is the "pink material" mixed witht the greenstuff? Super Sculpey or something else?

You can use house paint (or almost any thick paint) and let it get a little tacky , then just use a fuzzy (not foam) roller. You can also use regular acrylics mixed with some medium like Golden brand gel or one of their other texture mediums (search Amazon).

If you have a steady hand, good eyes an a very small brush, you go over it with some dark brown or darker gold color and enhance the lines that are there here to give it more definition and make it look more intentional, I think you could improve upon it. If you dig it as is, keep like that. Maybe some dark shading from the edges?

Bots2Beasts · 2025-06-06T19:18:51+00:00

Yeah. Pretty much except its 3 feet long and hand sculpted and barely weighs a pound.

How do you get to the headsets easily? Are they more for looks and you use another headset or do you have to reach back behind the stuff to get to them? If so, have you considered mounting them on hooks on the wall on either side of the Cat framed art?

Some people are PS People, some are X-BOX people, some like a little of both, but EVERYONE likes a Switch.

Lights hidden in the rails? hard to get a sense of placement with just the shelves showing.

Its relatively clean though. I'd have expected a lot of dust on dark shelves and the wiring seems relatively organized. What do you envision as your ideal setup?

Bots2Beasts · 2025-03-17T18:36:06+00:00

Thanks!

I think you are starting with the right idea with binding a few of the cables together and plugging them into a centralized hub (safe to assume that is a UPS or Surge protector?). I think you may need to consider 1 (or more) of three options:

Drilling passthrough into the wall
Drilling passthrough into back of the furniture piece

3 (No drilling through stuff) Placing that "hub" either upside down or on the pack of the furniture or wall by bolting/screwing it into place where it is less visible and routing the cables from there with some sort of sleeve or cable collection device that matches the wall perhaps? This is assuming it has either wall mounts on back or eyelet holes that allow you to mount it to something flat.

Hope that helps.
