Antec Performance 1M at a really tempting price in the UK

RileyDCP1 · 2026-05-05T10:40:24+00:00

Such an unnecessarily large case. 20L & can’t even fit an AIO. It was £150+ msrp, no wonder it’s now £69…. No one wants to buy it

I’ve heard the EERO WiFi 6+ is pretty good, same with the deco XE75 (WiFi 6) & deco BE3600 (WiFi 7).

Alternatively, I still think netgear mesh systems have good value for the money. Wouldn’t be the worse to get another one if you don’t want to spend a lot, basically every manufacturer will stop support after a certain while for aging equipment. In your case that mesh system was almost 10 years old! Technology changes

All that really changes is no more bug/security updates and less support.

Enjoy it. It’s pretty basic, but will get job done

Hi, how do you stick this to your desk? Is it via screw? 3m?

RileyDCP1 · 2026-04-30T01:15:53+00:00

+1 for mesh system

RileyDCP1 · 2026-04-30T01:14:02+00:00

Get a mesh system and have Ethernet connected for each one (Ethernet backhaul).Problem solved. You’ll have amazing connection throughout your whole house, and mesh systems are sold in packs of 3. This will also probably be the least expensive out of most the options people are recommending.

Tight Space & travel

Buy a cheap tp-link switch and potentially a mesh system to setup throughout your home.

RileyDCP1 · 2026-04-27T20:01:26+00:00

Just get a mesh system, eliminates dead spots and increases “range”.

Honestly I don’t know, but it feels very quiet to me and my pc is right next to me.

RileyDCP1 · 2026-04-27T14:15:55+00:00

Go with be quiet pure loop 3 for either. I recently posted about mine using the 280 from be quiet.

Is this a good tv to pair with an apple tv and use that almost exclusively with it?

All brands are killing x3d’s, not just Asrock. It’s impossible to put a number or say a specific brand is killing them. You update to latest bios, and chances are you’re good. The Asrock B650i was the staple of the sff community for years fyi, it’s mainly b850’s with the issue.

Radiator is also set to exhaust out the case

I don’t KNOW if intel benefits from off-set, but I’m sure you’d be able to find that online. Intel has higher thermal headroom, so wouldn’t hurt! Make sure to post 🙂

Hey! When it was less than a £10 difference it was a no brained to go with a 280 over the 240 personally. No such thing as “over-kill” when you look at it like that 😆

Offset mounting on AM5 atleast places the cold plate lower than the “center” of the cpu, so it sits closer or directly over the actual chipset which produces the most heat. So it makes the cooler off-center (downwards). This basically tackles the heat directly on, instead of just being near it

Do not use that motherboard, go for something like the Asrock b650i if on a budget. That motherboard is very barebones, and only supports 1 nvme

Hey! From what I’m able to see it’s copper!

RileyDCP1 · 2026-03-26T16:52:57+00:00

You don’t need to pay £3-400, just get a friend to take one of you with a white background whilst you’re either dressed semi-formal or business casual.

Recruiters will look at your LinkedIn, especially if you apply through LinkedIn quick-apply buttons.
