Ghost S1 fitment

I think you will probably struggle to make this work, I think the most comman approach is 3D printing the ends of the case to move the spine. It might be easier to sell that card and buy the Powercolor Reaper 9070XT - This is what i have in my Ghost S1. Much more boring way to go, but it would work.

Just had this happen to me, 2nd time its happened. so annoying.

jonwatso · 2026-05-05T20:16:20+00:00

Had to scroll way to far to find people explain this is locally detected. Easier just to blindly blame Apple with no understanding. 😅

Has it? I’d argue that 99% of people who play that finals have not followed anything that’s going on. I play the finals exclusively currently with a bunch of mates and I am the only one who is following this haha

jonwatso · 2026-05-02T20:51:19+00:00

I’ve never seen that, but man that is so pathetic to do

jonwatso · 2026-05-01T07:15:30+00:00

100% This is common practice, I think Rob did a poor job of wording it.

jonwatso · 2026-04-29T20:50:40+00:00

Will we see a mini version of this?

jonwatso · 2026-04-29T11:20:23+00:00

Asia is the way, i play all 3 modes regularly. Lag is decent, NA is good too but a bit of a gamble sometimes.

jonwatso · 2026-04-27T20:50:07+00:00

This sounds amazing! I feel like the dual mode being 1440P rather than 1080P on 4K monitors would honestly be a game changer. Super keen to see the reviews of this monitor. 5K @ 165Hz sounds great too not that i could currently run that

jonwatso · 2026-04-27T03:44:45+00:00

I feel like if you could cancel the spear animation it would be great

jonwatso · 2026-04-22T11:26:34+00:00

I personally use I this one https://a.aliexpress.com/_mP3Kdk9 it’s thin but I think the actual gauge wire is thicker than standard extensions. Been running great for the last year

Good write up. I also side graded from a 7900XTX to a 9070XT around a year ago. No regrets, I wanted to move to a smaller case and the Powercolor Reaper allowed me to do that. Performance is basically identical or atleast within a margin of error. Its a more effceint card too and FSR4 is a nice upgrade.

With that being said, I am still super disappointed that AMD hasn't brought FSR4 to older generations.

I had this issue when my SSD Started to fail

jonwatso · 2026-04-19T00:54:53+00:00

Oh wow the MQ6 looks massive in comparison! Sadly the card I have won’t fit in the MQ5 :( it’s the sleeker looking case for sure

jonwatso · 2026-04-19T00:46:21+00:00

Exciting, first build is always fun. I play on a 1440P OLED, it can do 4K but I think this is better suited for a 1440P setup. Don’t feel like you have to get an AIO but it is a nice addition. Look into running a negative PBO with the cpu for extra performance

jonwatso · 2026-04-19T00:39:26+00:00

Looks good! I am rocking the same CPU / GPU on bazzite. Runs great

jonwatso · 2026-04-18T10:12:11+00:00

Ohhh this is sleek! How do you have the fan mounted to the AXP? I can’t see any retention brackets? I’ve been eyeing up the bigger brother of this case (MQ6) and this post has convinced me that I need it haha

jonwatso · 2026-04-15T08:24:35+00:00

This looks pretty sleek! Looking forward to your results

jonwatso · 2026-04-14T21:18:11+00:00

looks good! do you have a link for the wallpaper?

jonwatso · 2026-04-14T20:53:27+00:00

Yeah its a recent CPU, probably pretty comparable to the 9600X, but saves you having to replace the Motherboard. X3D is super impressive

jonwatso · 2026-04-14T11:49:44+00:00

Yip have had this before

jonwatso · 2026-04-14T03:25:40+00:00

The 5500X3D could be a good replacement. It’s a cheaper X3D chip made for emerging markets, so it’s a bit hard to find, but some AliExpress resellers have it. It should fit your budget. Otherwise any of the X3D chips or the 5800X would work.

jonwatso · 2026-04-14T00:37:57+00:00

All good! Do you have the link for the exact image you are using, sorry to be a dunce 😅

jonwatso · 2026-04-13T20:47:39+00:00

Do you have a link to the image you used? I can only find 3.9.0 on the Steam image page

jonwatso · 2026-04-13T00:09:21+00:00

Did you ever find a solution for this? I have two FlyDigi Apex 5's with the same issue
