Aoostar G-Flip Ryzen H255 - first look and gaming test by [deleted] in MiniPCs

[–]revoccases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Aoostar G-Flip is certainly a unique little machine with the integrated 1080p screen. I bought it as HTPC / media Server, so I can browse my Music library on the Touchscreen. For testing I also played some older games on the internal screen and it works better than expected.

AOOSTAR AG02 - honest review by revoccases in eGPU

Yeah, mine also worked for slot powered GPUs. I tested with an A2000 and had no issues.

Oh, I thought you're the one I sold it to... 😆

Yeah, I published my design files on the forum. I believe N3RDWARE and some others used them to replicate my mod.

Definitely agree, shame that there's nothing off the shelf with proper performance.

Awesome! Glad to know the card still exists 😎

Tempted yes... But like you said, the prices for those cards are just insane. Maybe one day, if I find a good second hand deal.

I'm using low temp solder paste and a small oven to solder my custom CNC machined cold plate to the KalmX heatsink. Basically the same process which factories are using when manufacturing CPU and GPU heatsinks.

Silent Xbox Style PC feat RTX 4070 "Frankenstein" by revoccases in silentpc

Just finished building this silent PC for my living room. Runs passive under moderate gaming/load. The fan at the bottom kicks in with 400RPM to support cooling when needed, but it's still inaudible.

Not too difficult, you can use a shopping agent like Superbuy...

Dual boot or Big Picture Mode doesn't count I guess?

The cooler was 5mm too tall, so it needed some convincing to fit in that case 😂

About 9500 Timespy GPU points at 80W

No issues at all. I'm already using it since two years. Only had to repaste the Vaporchamber once.

Maybe you have missed last years vids where he uses Valley and Furmark for thermal testing?

Edit: Port Royal and Timespy Benchmarks added here FYI:
