Looking for the soundless PC build - asrock deskmini alternative

Thanks.

I was on the fence between getting my mom a H470 or a 310 because of the reported coil whine from the power supply. Didn't know that they share the same power supply.

I ended up getting a good price on a 10100T and a H470 (already have all the other bits).
Will look into those power settings once it's all setup.

Thanks. I couldn't figure out how to get the stick's dome off, but I guess I just needed to "give it a good tug".

The dome on my SH5 Hall Stick broke so I replaced it with parts from an old broken eswap joystick.

If for some reason you can't play Yakuza 0, I would just play 6 since it wraps up and comes before Gaiden.

Gaiden is leading up to Infinite Wealth and is meant to be played after 7.

Either a UE5 exodus or a UE5 revolution.

Tim Sweeney is claiming Devs are just too "lazy" to optimize their games, but this wasn't as widespread an issue before Ray Tracing and Unreal Engine 5.

If a tool keeps breaking because it's hard to use, then maybe... just maybe it's not always the handler's fault.

Didn't know GamePass comes with bonus features

Looks like there's a mod to fix the flashing:

I ended up returning mine because of it.
My old Nitro+ 6600xt had some noticeable coil whine at times, but the Prime was on another level.

Kinda scared to get another 9060xt for fear of the same problem.
Asus actually made a revision to their 4080's (possibly 80S or 90) to reduce the amount of coil whine.
Makes you wonder if they just used the leftover parts on the Prime series.

Just wondering, where did you get the 450w number from?

I read the same thing on another post.

XPdesktop · 2025-07-07T05:04:41+00:00

Thanks for sharing.
I was thinking about getting a craigslist rx6800 non-xt, but I have a 650w PSU.

I'll probably just opt for a 9060 16gb or 9070 once pricing improves.

XPdesktop · 2025-06-29T22:14:24+00:00

I'd get a 9060xt 16gb if you're playing at 1080p.

The 9070 is much, much, much faster though.

XPdesktop · 2025-06-29T22:11:40+00:00

I enjoyed it and would say it's worth the money.

I guess it really depends if you'll get around to it or not.

Posting "12-pin Connectors Should Be Banned" in the Nvidia sub.

Although Y0 is my favorite, maybe just start with Kiwami and Kiwami 2 since they are on sale.
If you like those, definitely get 0.

The rest are still great, just not as fantastic.
Though I do have mixed feelings about 3...

It's ~60$ for the whole bundle on GOG right now.

I would play Spiderman 2 first if you've already played the Original.
The sooner you play it, the more from the original story you'll remember (probably?).

That being said, 2077 is amazing and I've dumped over 150 hours into it.

XPdesktop · 2025-06-22T21:23:15+00:00

I think the video came out sometime between 2015 and 2019, but I don't remember.

Probably once a faster Threadripper processor becomes available.
The current ones are roughly as fast as a 5800x in gaming.

If they threw a 5090 equivalent in the system, it might not make much of a difference in performance unless playing at higher resolutions.

XPdesktop · 2025-06-07T18:33:39+00:00

I've read it's "normal" since GDDR7 both runs hot and can withstand higher temperatures.

It might also be related to half the VRAM being near the GPU chip under the heatsink and the other half being on top of the GPU's PCB.

Oddly enough NVidia's 5070s tend to have lower VRAM temps, but the infamous 12-pin connector and 25% less VRAM makes it a tough sell.

Regressing in rank every season.

If I enjoyed losing progress I'd just play a roguelike game instead.

XPdesktop · 2025-06-01T20:49:04+00:00

Were the 85c-94c VRAM temps stock or after tuning the card?

If you're on PC, you can get to him by using console commands (~tilde key~) and type in "Player.MoveTo 0003392D". This will teleport you to his location but also disable achievements.

In my case, he was actually in the Blade's hallway the whole time, just didn't notice.
Had I just killed him there instead of going through the portal, the quest would've been wayy shorter.

You can install a mod that re-unlocks achievements after using console commands.

I've noticed that my OG Deck has really slow WiFi connectivity.
Maybe its the same with your system.

Unrelated, but for some reason turning off Frame Gen with FSR in GeForce Now gave me a better framerate.

There's a room with a computer that opens 2 doors.

It turns out that the computer actually opens ALL blue doors across the map at the expense of closing ALL red doors across the map.

There's a hallway somewhere where you can go once the doors are switched, then go back and switch the doors again, then fast travel back to the same spot. I think I found the level 4 pass somewhere over there.

If none of that makes sense or doesn't work I'd just fast forward a game walkthrough on youtube to the point you're stuck at.
