nice low profile... I'll check if this fits in my 4U NAS.
edit: you gotta love how lazy the chinese product descriptions are. "fits most intel and amd". thanks!
wow, that's a lot of cooler for the price. @arnmetis After watching the video, how was the flushness of the pipes/ mounting face? I know you said they fixed it. Can you run a fingernail over it? Does it look like it's lapped flat? Another issue I have with heat pipes is the actual solder...
I've been a diehard Intel/Nvidia guy, but the how NV has been screwing gamers for miners has me thinking about batting for the other team. (AMD hey hey u ugly no ray tracing pig, I'm looking at u)
Got these games on steam @ launch, they're awesome!
I was disappointed that in the deluxe edition, soundtrack, this song wasn't included:
Yes! Homeworld (The Ladder)
received my HP Reverb G2 today! Beat Saber runs @ 44% res on my 1660Ti. Really needing to snag a 3080 now. Some games I can play close to 100% resolution, but there's some serious headroom with the 90hz screens.
Gigabyte burned me in the early 2000's but my current PC is pretty reliable, running: Gigayte 1660Ti OC & Gigabyte Z390 M Gaming mATX mobo
Edit: RE: CAPs
I remember pre-COV there was a worldwide capacitor shortage, we had trouble acquiring enough at work to get our boards stuffed.
Supposed to receive my firestik 4K this week! Grabbed one during this deal. Just wanted to share, if you guys aren't running Kodi on these things, try it! I pretty much just use these for Kodi to stream from my kodi server. It shreds x265 video.
Thanks, grabbed Andromeda Deluxe for $4.49
I played Titanfall 2 when it was free weekend or something, it was pretty good, it's short and sweet. Not remarkable enough for a second play through. price was right.
Code doesn't work for me. Totally would like a second 4KFire Stick.
edit: FYI the 4K stick is a great front end to a local kodi server. It mostly shreds x265 video. Most of the limitations have been on my wireless network and not the firestick.
That's a well thought out setup. Thanks for sharing all of the details. I took a hard look at purchasing a unit like yours. It just so happened that I have an HTPC available, to repurpose as a server: i7-2700k 32Gb Memory and SSD HD for the OS. So really, I'm just spending $ on a nice case, a...
Putting 6X of these into a new media server. Any suggestions on a new power supply that will work with these? thx!
Edit: I'm building a regular i7 PC, not using an off the shelf commercial nas.
HZD (Horizon Zero Dawn) was incredible. Probably best game yet on the system. I was really disappointed in Last of Us.
Currently enjoying Skyrim VFR & Doom VFR.
