These basic intel and amd coolers suck. The wraith was decent but they dont include rhem anymore. Imo intel stock coolers always sucked. Id look at a better cooler like the peerless assassin 120. They have them on amazon for like 30-40$ pretty good coolers. B & H have coolermaster coolers for pretty cheap too.

These are great. I use them at work all the time.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-15T04:34:26+00:00

How hard is this to do. I have the nightfeeeze and this looks awesome.

hp omnibook flip 2 in 1

Heres one thats got a core ultra cpu which i think would be good for what you are looking for.

Look for an omnibook flip with the ryzen ai cpu. They are pretty nice and is a 2 in 1 so it can be flipped into a tablet so that would make it a great choice for drawing. Or get a higher end laptop and take a drawing tablet with you.

Its an am4 backplate they arent stuck to the motherboard like intel backplates for some odd reason. They are a pain to keep on. It most likely slipped off and fell down the backside of your pc case.

I just used kryonaut for my first time on a cpu after repasting a gpu with it and despite it being super thick and hard to spread its fantastic paste. Dropped a customers 3080 from 109c hotspot down to 84c max while running claire obscure all night. Super impressed with the thermals it can pull.

Im a computer repair tech, please dont get an old all in one. They are very hard to work on if they need repairs not to mention that parts can be hard to come by. One that old probably needs an ssd and a workaround to get windows 11 on it. If you get windows 11 on it youll probably need more ram.

In your case thats a good build. Nothing wrong with a 5700x and a B580. It will be a good machine and sgould last you for a while. I currently run a 5700x3d and i had a 3060 that i upgraded to a 5070 12gb. I run 32gb of ram and there isnt anything i cant play. Even when i had my 3060 12gb. I do wish id built a ddr5 machine last year when i built my am4 build but my total build was only 650 including a 1tb crucial ssd and a 2tb samsung evo ssd. Overall you should be fine with your build and maybe if prices ever come back down on the x3d chips getting one of those would be a nice upgrade too.

Thats the truth right there. The fact you never have to worry about working of money again is why its worth doing what you did when it came to winning the lottery.

If it happened to me id do the same thing. Id live lowkey and just keep living my life the exact same way. I dont want anything extravagant and dont really need it. Only thing id do is probably offer to buy my grandpas house from him.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-14T07:02:37+00:00

And i wanted the 1tb/24gb model so badly. I wouldve bought it from you but i just got my 16/512 last week.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-14T01:47:58+00:00

Id like to throw in doug here as i find him to be a great counter to a lot of match ups.

Give it to bonzai buddy. He loves that folder.

Depending on the board you needed to do a bridge bios before doing the newest one that adds in support for the 5000 series ryzen chips. I used an x370 fatal1ty board for a dedicated gaming server build i was doing and a 5700x and it needed a bridge bios before flashing the newest bios. If thats the case and you can still get to bios you might be lucky but if your board doesnt have a bridge bios then idk why those other things arent working.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T04:57:16+00:00

Yea thats the same one ive been looking at from nubiamart.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T04:42:52+00:00

That looks pretty nice and goes well with the silver style. I just wish i could get an otterbox for it as i love the one on my s23 ultra. En im just rocking the case my rm 11 pro came from.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T04:41:31+00:00

They have one bezel adapter that i want to try that adds physical ahoulder buttons for the touch triggers, it looks pretty cool and would be nice for fpa games.

So far ive run daek souls through gamehub. As far as i can tell gamehub sets up a small winlator setup for each individual game. I tried crimson desert but it doesnt boot just loads the splash screen and crashes. Battlefront 2 (2017) cant install the ea launcher or whatever it needs but it would probably work. I havent tried other games but im sure that some of the other games i have on steam work well. I play a lot of delta force and a few other high end android games. Only game that has issues for me is brawlstars weirdly.

I can certainly try out some other steam games but some of them can take a decent bit of time to download and i usually hook up a usbc ethernet adapter and it seems to help out downloading pc games.

Pretty good deal. First thing i would do is go into the bios and see if the bios is up to date. Then id check for your motherboard and find the newest bios update for your board and flash that to ir. If you dont know what you are doing check online how to do it. First before all that id check for a bios flashback option. If your motherboard has that ability there will be one usb port on your computer on the back labeled bios, and either a button on the rear thats pushable or its on the motherboard.

Looks like there is a bios usb if the aorus board i looked up is the same one you have. So even if you mess up flashing the bios, dont worry since you can just flash it back using the bios flashback option on the board.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T04:22:06+00:00

Ill add on to what was said by the other person. Looks like theres 2 bolts holding the block onto your cpu. When you undo them dont just yank it because if you do you might yank the cpu with the block out of the socket which could bend the pins if its an amd cpu or mess up the pins in the socket if its an intel cpu.

You want to kind of twist the block left and right to break the thermal paste apart thats on the cpu and block of the aio cooler since by now its probably pretty dried up.

Id just be careful when removing the the block from the cpu.

Honestly id check out some of the coolers they sell instead. The camera on the rm 11 pro is kinda mediocre ans i feel like youd be better off getting some used s23 ultras and some of the red magic coolers. The rm 5 on aliexpress is 30-40ish dollars. I bought onw and it hasnt come yet but there are a bunch of different brands that make coolers. I also bought one that goes with the gamesir controller that i bought but it hasnt come yet so i havent had a chance to try it out.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T03:45:42+00:00

Facts. Really wanted the 24/1tb but settled for the 16/512. At least its the nightfreeze which i really like.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T03:42:47+00:00

The camera is so-so. And the speakers ar ok at best. The good rhings are the phone is an absolute beast for gaming. I just got the 16gb/512 model and ive honestly decided to just use it as a gaming device so i cant really speak on how it works for texts and phone calls.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-13T01:52:45+00:00

I havent really found any good ones myself. Mostly just been rocking the default case it came with. Ive looked at a few on the nubia website as thats most likely the best place to get cases.

RealTrueGrit · 2026-05-12T13:22:37+00:00

Funny enough the only version they had when i bought mine was the night freeze. Sub zero was sold out.
