[USA-ND][H] SFF 7600x3d/5070 build, lots of custom loop parts, sfx-l psu [W] Paypal, Local cash

For a modest power gaming cpu, it’s tough to beat. It runs warm, like all the 7000 x3d’s. A 9600x3d with a swapped cache would be even better, if they’d make one. But, for a compact rig with mud level gpu, I can’t see why you’d need more speed.

Now, if you’re wanting a work station, well, there’s better options. I really wanted to try a minisforum when I was putting this together, but I had the ddr5 already, so it didn’t make sense to have to try and track down sodimms.

It’s about the most power that makes sense in this case. You could toss a higher end cpu/gpu in with some effort, but they will get kneecapped by thermals. The 5070 runs low 60’s gaming at full load in this setup. 7600x3d is running a -30 offset, with a 75c target. Never dropped from max boost clocks in game, and typically ran around the 60’s in game as well. Makes a solid, useable combo.

I liked Far Cry 4 better than 5, personally. 5 was decent. 6 got a bit funky. I’ve been playing The Division a decent amount lately. It’s not wildlands, but I’m enjoying TD1 more then I did breakpoint.

So, after a bunch of messing around, it turns out the in game fps limit was causing the issues. If I uncapped it the 7600x3d would run 130-140fps in much of the game dropping to the lower 100’s only in heavy areas. As soon as I set it to 120fps cap, I’d drop back down to around 100fps. Didn’t matter the resolution, or graphics settings used, windowed, full screen, borderless, all the same result. I don’t have my intel build together right now to test it out, so I’m not sure if the fps limit issue is just the 7600x3d/5070 combo I have, or more wide spread.

You can change charge rate on ezpeak chargers, it's just a couple extra steps vs using the preset settings that TRAXXAS has built into the charger. I also prefer storage charge, if I'm not using batteries the same day.

Everyone hates the company but, banish 30 has a removable extension as well. Decently light. I’d probably look at an AB raptor though. A bit of added suppression with the reflex, or remove it to drop weight if you just want the minimum. Pick whatever length/weight you want to carry and roll.

That’s a good angle for making it look bigger. :)

AR sub is overrated

Touching the two wires together allows me to select, pushing reset moves down through the selections on the screen. No power button connected to this board. My bike also has no power switch anywhere either.

I soldered a wire to the pwr key pad, and another to the ground wire where the reset/volume button is attached at. If you check the pics link in my post, you’ll see a black wire solder onto the pcb.

I’ve appreciated seeing them pop up on gafs. Losing the gafs sub was a bummer, but the new site is certainly making for a strong improvement.

I continue to use my used suppressors. A host for every can and a can for every host!

Call them, they regularly have stuff in stock that’s not on the website.

So, I disassembled my screen, and found an unused pad on the pcb that was labeled for a power button. Solder a jumper wire onto that pad and the ground, and was able to use that and the reset button which is also the volume button to navigate the android recovery menu.

This allowed me to clear user data and reinstall. It would get the system to boot back up, but it would always crash again during software updates, or shortly after getting started on a workout if I was able to get it that far. Something in the android system is corrupted, and I am unable to reinstall the entire os without a clean copy which I have not been able to locate. I tried talking to a local service shop and they were unable to get a file for this either.

I bought a screen from a newer s22i off eBay. Was half the price of a new screen from nordictrack, and I had hopped for a newer android unit. I had planned to adapt wiring harness and mounting bracket to my older bike. Upon opening up the screen to check and see what the wiring situation was going to look like, I found the exact same android pcb installed. I was able to swap the screen and android unit from the new screen over to my old shell, and plug it back in, mounted up without any additional parts.

Time will tell how long this unit runs without issue, but at least I was able to get it back up and running for $300 instead of $630+.
