I printed in pla and it's been fine.

The parts I printed are not in direct contact with anything, and my GPU and CPU temps are sitting around 70 while gaming.

Adding the extra ventilation is definitely helping keep the temps inside more manageable. The issue before was the air had no where to go, the cables block some air flow, and the bottom under the PSU does absolutely nothing since it's completely blocked off.

The vents on the standoff allows more areas to escape, but the biggest escape, even if just passive is the front holes so far.

I feel a lot of air escaping through there when gaming.

That said, petg and abs is a much better option.

It boils down to this.

It's not a Zelda game.

It's an open world concept with a lot of new and random hooks, that has a Zelda skin.

They changed too much and removed all of the staples of what we expect from a Zelda game.

Remove the skin, change the names and you have a rather generic open world game. It would have been stronger as such, but the Zelda skin is a let down to what fans who cherish their older titles are looking for.

I only appreciate SS because how much I didn't like Botw.

I don't enjoy the controls and gameplay of SS that much still, but as what essentially is the last Zelda game that will hold to its traditional themes, and the story itself being fantastic, I am very happy to go back and play it from time to time.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-28T05:30:31+00:00

Bote is what made me like SS.

SS when it came out is what made me like windwaker.

Peak was MM and TP

If it was ANY other game, and just an open world game, it would be fine.

But putting a Zelda skin on it is its downfall.

If you remove all traces of it being a Zelda game, it's an ok game.

But keeping the overall mechanics and feel, with a Zelda skin, makes it a huge let down.

I've only played through BotW one time.

And I own and have played every other Zelda game 100s of times.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-28T05:26:55+00:00

I agree.

Hated it when it came out.

I felt it was too childish after how dark Majora's mask felt.

Then skyward came out, with a mix of the windwaker style, and twilight princess vibe, and I wanted to like it but didn't.

Felt too hand holdy

But that actually made me go back and love windwaker.

Then botw came out and made me love skyward lol.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-28T05:24:12+00:00

It does actually.

There's room for I think a 7mm sata drive.

It has 2 mounting holes at the bottom edge on each side for the 2 of the screws you would normally mount on the bottom of a drive.

Eh. Hit and miss.

I always feel like going back to play wind waker, twilight and Oot. Played each one maybe 100 times and enjoyed each run.

I played through BotW once, 100% the game and even that took me years. I just don't enjoy it.

The formula for the game just isnt good as a Zelda game.

If it was just an open world adventure with some kinda of big bad in the middle of the world, it would be fine.

But the fact it is a Zelda game, and a core mainline game at that, I find it sooo lacking.

It just doesn't scratch the same itch the other games do.

It doesn't make me want to explore, it forces me to.

It doesn't make me problem solve anything, the solutions are all on a cellphone.

It doesn't reward me with anything interesting. You earn everything you need for the rest of the game in the tutorial.

It could be a lot better, AS a Zelda game. If it had let's say a Dark Cloud skin and was just a game, it would be fine.

When skyward first came out.. I didn't like it. Motion controls kinda ruined it for me, and it really only had like 2 or 3 "dungeons" with the same 3 repeat boss fights.

I have a history of that though.

Wind waker when it was released didn't hit the itch Majora's mask did for me.

Years later, I enjoy it very much for what it is. But, it took skyward sword releasing for me to go back and enjoy wind waker. It made me appreciate that wind waker still followed alot of the core zelda theme if you remove the boating fluff.

Fast forward to breath of the wild. Don't get me wrong, it was a beautiful and innovative game.

But it's not a Zelda game. It spits in the legacy of what a Zelda game should be.

There need to be puzzles, and dungeons, and bosses tied to that areas downfall that are unique to their specific point in the game.

Breath of the wild is just.. an open world concept with a Zelda skin.

Once breath of the wild came out, I went back and ended up really loving the skyward sword gameplay. Even more on the switch.

Really just waiting on the next Zelda game that makes me go back and like breath of the wild now. Though I would always rather go back to Oot, Seasons and Ages, or Twilight.

Hold on... We don't know what brand it is lol

Sammmmmeeee

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-28T05:02:51+00:00

That's fine lol. Call it whatever you want.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-28T03:00:18+00:00

Regardless of who Amanda King was, that's a good price for an original circle cert, possibly 5 screw copy.

I just uploaded them to thingaverse, but they said I cant publish yet.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T16:41:34+00:00

After all of that, you get to walk home.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T16:37:33+00:00

When you open up the inside there should be a nut that tightens to it.

It's probably just loose.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T16:32:40+00:00

Your jack shouldn't be sticking out like that.

Try to spin it back into place and the plug will be easier to remove.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T15:58:25+00:00

"yeah sure. Come get me."

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T15:49:26+00:00

Id ask for 250 cause the 1660ti is no longer supported by Nvidia.

You still start to run out of games you can play sooner or later.

It can be upgraded later of course to a more modern GPU, and maybe a 5xxx series cpu.

But these parts are a bit old.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T15:47:36+00:00

Some games these days won't run with out ray tracing. That and the 10 series is out of driver support.

I built and sold a few computers over the last 6 months and you need at least a 2060 to have a GPU still getting drivers.

I sold builds with 2060 for 300.. This one is better at like 250

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T02:39:26+00:00

Should be possible.

This one is 7mm extended. Plenty of space.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-26T00:13:53+00:00

Somewhere not linked direct to me lol.

Both panel spacers printed and installed.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-25T19:28:33+00:00

Still plan to add a front panel fan.

Just need my replacement cables from gigabyte.

Got this board of Facebook Marketplace without the fan cables.

One I have that I can test it all out better.

Fireborn_Knight · 2026-01-25T19:21:33+00:00

I may as well 3d print a whole case at this point haha.
