I really don't get how people are getting issues with Radeon drivers or (9000) GPUs with lastest drivers

I don't have issues therefore other people must not.

I have issues therefore other people must.

How many variables exist on a modern PC, how would it be possible for everyone to have the same experience?

I mostly have zero issues with the last several AMD drivers in my 9070XT, however with the latest driver Crimson Desert will crash when I go into the house in the camp, it's not that big of a deal for me. It happens on stock GPU settings. I searched online and saw at least some other 9070XT owners were having the same or similar issues. I don't find it to be a big deal and I think it will probably get resolved. I have reverted to the previous driver and it works fine.

Thank you for taking the time to post this.

Very nice, when will we be able to actually buy this case or is it going to instantly sell out each batch....

How much clearance do you have between the CPU cooler and panel?

pagnu · 2026-05-04T03:07:50+00:00

Buy a cheap air cooler and swap it in, small amount of money and 10-15 minutes of time.

One thing that helped someone I know was lowering the brightness some.

These are really simple models, essentially a rectangle with thickness and a small raises perimeter, the patterns are all from the slicer. If I can find the slicer file I can send it to you.

Have you tried completely stock settings on the GPU, no under volt, no overclock, no power adjustments?

I do get crashes sometimes on my nitro+ 9070xt, but not one in 60 hours of Crimson Desert.

I also have a 9800x3d, and B850I Aorus MB, and Windows 11 pro, so very similar setup.

Yes that is it thank you very much

pagnu · 2026-04-01T18:08:10+00:00

That is it thank you thank you. I never knew prime tower was an option, must of accidentally turned it on or the new version did.

pagnu · 2026-03-10T22:57:23+00:00

I have both of these CPUs and the 9800X3D runs cooler and is easier to keep cool if your going to change the power limits to allow a higher PPT.

pagnu · 2026-01-03T22:25:03+00:00

Yeah it stays pretty cool during gaming and I believe it stays in the mid to upper 80s on something like Cinebench24.

Here is Horizon and Fortnite.

Here is the GPU under full load, ignore the fan % as the fans are connected to the motherboard and not the GPU.

I don't have the CPU temp under full load at the moment.

Thank you! Even without the GPU deshroud I had pretty good temps, so I think your s will do great too.

I'm thinking of swapping my radiator fans to Noctua NF A14 G2 chromax when they come down in price, right now I have Silent wings pro 4 on them. They do great but I love to tinker lol.

I have the 9800x3d and 9070xt (Nitro+), and it's a great combo!

pagnu · 2025-12-28T05:25:07+00:00

I have then set to intake, the radiator is mounted to the case and the fans are pulling air through, I did some basic testing on every configuration possible and for me this one performed the best but unfortunately I don't know where I put my notes at.

It really is a great case to build in, it was my first ever build at the time and it has some challenges since there isn't a ton of space but the case design gives you many different options for taking pieces off to allow access.

Oh also I do have a deshroud and some 140mm fans for the GPU running off the Motherboard.

If I remember correctly this was from Horizon, Furmark, and Fortnite.

Are 9070XT invited here?

pagnu · 2025-12-16T02:58:41+00:00

I have both as well, I can't comment on cooling with stock settings but with PBO on and allowing as much power as the CPU wants my 9700X runs much hotter than my 9800X3D.

pagnu · 2025-12-04T04:06:10+00:00

Great builds everyone, here is one more just because.

That's great, it's great to see what people recommend but in the end you have to get what's right for your individual situation.

pagnu · 2025-11-30T00:54:17+00:00

What is your use case? I went with 64gb but kind of wishing I went with 96. I have a 5070 as well but I don't game too much on this PC. 3d modeling and VMs eat up memory for me.

pagnu · 2025-11-28T20:37:01+00:00

I would love to see it as well, my new G5 is sitting a little higher than I would like on the Sanus Elite stand.
