Bump. Added a handheld that I currently don't use anymore.

This right here. That drive is getting all the excess heat from the CPU right above it. It will be running over 60c at all times even with a heatsink. It needs moved to a cooler location.

Happy with mine. Gave me a 20fps boost in Sons of the forest.

ROG Ally Z1 Extreme - Bought this open box in December at Best Buy. Unit is in mint condition. I replaced the Micron 512gb drive with a 1TB Drive due to the 512gb having SMART issues shortly after purchase. I no longer have the original drive. This comes with the clear case grip, Original box...

Get some PTM7950 and the problem will be solved forever. Don't bother with pastes, they all have the same outcome on these GPUs.

Ryzen 9 7900 12 Core CPU - 65w TDP Version - $250 shipped Comes with Wraith Prism and full retail packaging will provide receipt. Great CPU and only minimally different than the 7900x but way cooler than the X version. If you enable PBO and power limits it will act like a 7900x. SOLD...

I bit on this and dumping my current CPU. The odd thing on this transaction is that it did not charge me sales tax.

GRE is $550 and put a 200mhz OC on the RAM and it's a monster that rubs elbows with the 7900XT. It's not a bad buy.

What will be interesting is AMD and ASrocks relationship going forward. The main partner for Intel will likely be ASrock going forward.

Long time in the making. Hence why the overpriced gaming X trio classic was a dud. Nobody wanted it unless it was given away. AMD is putting more emphasis on their premier partners such as Asrock, Powercolor, XFX and Sapphire. Gigabyte and Asus will follow the same path as MSI. Notice no strix...

Put a memory OC on that GRE to 2500mhz. Watch that thing become a raster monster. So far on two games I have saw a 20fps increase - RDR2 and Alan Wake 2 at 4k.

Good unit as well!

850w power supplies can be found for under $100. I would not use a 550w. 750w would work just fine as well. I would go with more than you need just in case you would like to upgrade your CPU in the future. The cost from a 650w to an 850w is pretty small...

I have the Thermalright Frozen Magic 360mm and I can honestly say its one of the quietest AIOs I have ever used. Keeps my 7800X3D in check and I was able to dial the pump down 1000rpm to make it completely silent. For $48.00, the price/performance is off the charts. I did not use the...

Like new, no noticeable coil whine, runs great, Mint condition and comes with Microcenter receipt. Need to pay taxes and have to cough up 2500 and don't feel like dipping in my savings. Complete with box, adapter and GPU support. Nice smaller 4080 super with reasonable temps too! $920 shipped...
