[Amiga Forever]

[StrongARM]

It is faaaast and runs cool, therefore I bought it. ;-)

 

[Amiga Forever]

Good for you I have installed 2TB Hard drive for my games because the game files size is bigger like Mortal Kombat 11 - 115GB installed !!!

 

[StrongARM]

HDD, really? Not maybe an M.2 SSM?

 

[Amiga Forever]

I mean SSD Hard drive.....sorry!

 

[StrongARM]

From crucial or is that the RAM showing?

 

[Amiga Forever]

[Amiga Forever]

350w psu is a little madness.

 

[Amiga Forever]

5600G run great and I could have Extension GPU to it but then i would have increase the power watts thought!

 

[StrongARM]

Jup. What options do you have in the BIOS regarding the GPU?

 

[Amiga Forever]

this is it

 

[StrongARM]

Do you also have these options in your BIOS/UEFI? My mobo is the Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac.

And because of the slightly weak PSU I have chosen not to go the X300 route.

https://www.asrock.com/nettop/AMD/DeskMeet X300 Series/index.asp is probably then the better option.

Do you also have these options in your BIOS/UEFI? Yes but I dont want messing about BIOS because I did made bugged my old computer up called UDOO Bolt over CMOS Stuffs and someone told me that I can Reset it to get back to normal (working computer).

thanks for links as DeskMeet X300 seem interesting one where china been selling Minisforum NUCX i7 64GB RAM (yes I know it does come with mobile GPU) with RTX 3070 that blow rest mini pc out of water in cheap price!

I see no problem with that. I always try to optimize the BIOS/UEFI and with a AMD 5xxxG APU/CPU you should take the chance and give the APU more (V)RAM.
If anything goes wrong, you can chose another (pre)setting from the BIOS or in worst case reset the CMOS on the board by connecting two pins.

With the price of this nucx i7 you could already invest in the better ruling performance device: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel...review-with-Intel-Core-i9-12900.612229.0.html

So, how went thing in case of "mini pc" ??

 

[Amiga Forever]

Welll at the moment, I bought Single Fan 1070 GTX to put into MSI Trident 3 and bought Adapter 8 pins and 330 watts PSU.

I hoping it is work and double the frame rate over 1050ti

I will be waiting for the post and let see how goes

DeskMeet X300 ? not bought that due things I have done above

 

[StrongARM]

Just fair. Still have my A5 sized mini pc with i-whatever and an 1070ti built in here for gambling up to UHD......

A couple of pictures of my old mini pc, the Asus ROG G20. If I remmeber correctly, the max gpu supported was a 1080 founders edition, mainly due to psu restrictions and bottlenecks. I no longer have this, but it was nice at the time.
