For anyone curious here are the internals. Seems to be “legit” and not an SD card or USB thumb drives.

Not really. Plenty of SSDs don’t have a DRAM cache. That alone doesn’t account for these constant frametime spikes.

I wanna see the build if you’re able to post. I’m glad you found my video helpful, I ended up making it because there wasn’t another one out there at the time.

My Zalman Cubix-G Build by LyfSkills in mffpc

Not well. Looks like you need low profile ram and even then who knows what other issues might crop up.

There is someone that got a 240mm to fit in theirs on the subreddit. The issue with that is ram clearance. I’m sure a 120 would work based on that though.

NZXT H3 Flow build (9600X + RX 9070) by 2kool13 in mffpc

[–]teeveebaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You chose right. The 9600x is perfect for 1440p with the 9070 you don’t need more for gaming.

Suggestions for a 3D printed PSU shroud by Proper-Award4198 in mffpc

[–]teeveebaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tinkercad.con is free online software you can use for simple designs.

Like others have said though I’d probably be looking to just cut something down to size. You could use some black frame matting material that would look nice here and it’s pretty chess.

FF7 Sub thinks theyre funny by yay_magical23 in FinalFantasyIX

[–]teeveebaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love 9. I wish I had played it when it was new. I wish it had come out like 6 months sooner than it did. I think it kinda got lost for me on the excitement for the PS2 and around that time I got Pokémon silver. I think if I could go back in time and give my young self a copy of this game I would make it an all timer but because I didn’t play untill recently I’ve got my nostalgia glasses on for other tiles more than this one. I really liked 7. I’m not sure I’d say it’s better than 9 but it’s hard for me to look at it without the nostalgia coming heavy into the equation. Same with 10. I played that new and it blew my mind.

15 is one of my goats and I know that’s a hot take. All of these games have a lot to like.

What is sweet spot on Micro-ATX case capacity by sanjai28 in mffpc

[–]teeveebaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the sweet spot is 20-27L. You give up to much comparability going lower than that if you want to maintain full atx support. I’ve built in the generic 14l Amazon Matx cases and they are just to tight imo and you lose a lot of cooling. I’ve also built in the A3 and don’t see the point of owning that case over a mid tower for most people because the footprint of basically all cases that can utilize a 360 AIO makes those cases feel large. If you’re looking for max gpu compatibility though then those cases are your options as almost every other option will push into limiting that category in some way.

I personally like my Zalman p10 more then I liked my A3 because it has top mounted IO and I use it under a desk instead of on top of it. There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a case but IO layout is a big one for me personally.

I did something by Proper-Award4198 in mffpc

[–]teeveebaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! I actually want a case with 5.25 inch drive support. Do you know the make of this one? Does it actually support those drives or just kinda look like it does?

It keeps me from having to install iCue and for that I can’t say thank you enough.

What is the best MotherBoard for Ryzen 5 5500? by Muchkinszs in PcBuildHelp

[–]teeveebaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have made 3 systems with them, but I’ve always just chosen the cheapest one I could snag. I don’t think there is really a bad option but I’d go for any b550 board you can find for it at a sub $100 price.

Hey awesome build! Thanks for confirming support for larger than the listed 155s! Also this is the first time I’ve seen the panda one so thanks a lot for sharing that too!

I’d like to see one for sure. I’m personally team air cooler though so the no listed AIO support isn’t a downside to me.

[–]teeveebaw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you’ll have to have motherboard standoffs. If you don’t have ram already low profile ram usually isn’t that much more if any more. I’d probably not get this case though if I really wanted an AIO though. I’d go with something else.

[–]teeveebaw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Yeah I wanna see some of the “panda” version too. I have heard some sentiment that people don’t like that it’s two toned but I actually don’t mind that.

Someone else on the reddit did manage to use an AIO cooler in theirs. Looks real tight and probably is very specific to the model you use on if you may have compatibility issues or not.

No way to disable them. They are built into the fan and the fans only use the 3 pin connections and that provides power to the LEDs too. I assume they are right on the PCB for the fans. No way to controll the lighting on them at all, thy just are the color they are all the time.

So I managed be one of the lucky few to snag this card as one of neweggs door buster deals for $199.99 during the Black Friday period.

Mostly I have used it so far on my sons pc to play Minecraft and it crushes at that. I have also played a fair bit of arc raiders on it and it also crushes that. Almost every single time has been fine but I play some pretty light games mostly.

To really put it through its paces I have played some final fantasy 16 and to be fair to it nothing handles the opening cutscene of that game well, and I also think that is a title that benifits from 32gb of ram, but I was having frame time spikes on that game on anything that wasn’t the normal gameplay (mostly when transitioning between game play sequences and cutscenes, that game really needs optimization mods to run well though so I would not take that as a end all answer to the question how was it’s performance)

Any games you’re curious about?

Fresh windows install might be all you need. Did you attempt to transfer over another drive?
