Seems like these bots use full blown headless browser instances so that'll be where all the CPU/RAM is going, 40+ copies of Chromium furiously refreshing as fast as they can could get pretty taxing

Yeah... sounds like the kind of kid who could use a giant case to deck out for years to come. Sneaker botting is really lame though. Maybe he'll find some other interesting tech hobbies that aren't crypto or NFTs or whatever.

Are you sure that's how it works? These kinds of things are usually not a case of "more threads = better" irrespective of performance. What usually matters most is overall multithreading performance, and an ancient xeon might not end up much better than his 5800X.

I told him to ask the devs of the bots he uses since he's in their discord if older CPU archicture like a 22 core broadwell Xeon would be fine running their bots. Apparently most users there utilize AWS/Google Cloud compute to handle 100s of tasks as opposed to local hardware, but my brother doesn't want to pay for that since he's more selective over what sneaker "drops" he goes after. teagone fucked around with this message at 01:36 on Nov 20, 2022 |

So I finally upgraded from my decade-old mid-tower to a SFF Meshlicious build over the weekend, while also upgrading my trusty 2700x to a 13600KF and the latest z790 platform. Bare skeleton:  Half-way there, with a good view of the bequiet Silent Loop 2, 280mm:  Motherboard side everything installed, pre cable cleanup:  MSI 3070 Gaming X Trio also fits, just had to lower the GPU supports by one level:  And there she is closed up, next to the previous case:  Runs really well so far, the difference that new CPU makes is insane, even during normal desktop usage it's really noticable. I had to lower the pump voltage to 9V to make it really silent though, that mesh case lets a lot of noise through. Awesome build quality on that Meshlicious though, just as I had hoped.

Got my hands on a 4080. My build currently has a Ryzen 5600x, and booted up a few games and the cpu is definitely falling behind. It's pegged at 100% while the gpu barely hits 50% in Cyberpunk. Any path to upgrade my cpu on a B550 with DDR4? I currently have a Scythe Big Shruiken cooler on it, but I'm on an open air chassis (XTIA Xproto) so there's no real size constraints as far as cooling is concerned.

if your gpu is at 50% only in cyberpunk, does that mean you're at 1080p or something? consider upgrading your monitor if so. gaming at higher resolutions is a good way to make use of all that gpu horsepower.

So 7900XTs fit in smaller cases but use more power and have less performance than 4090s. Womp womp. I’m guessing worse cooking too.

Anyone know if there is a recommended fan configuration for the NR200? I’m trying to decide what and how many fans to buy and I can’t seem to decide. My current plan is 2 intake from the bottom, 1 intake from the back and 2 exhaust at the top but wanted to get some opinions.

If you are doing top exhaust with bottom intakes you don't need that fifth fan from the back. 2x 120mm will do a good job cycling all the air. I had a similar setup in a modded EVGA hadron and found the 90mm back fan to be more of a hassle with the extra wire and having to manually set rpm to be lower to maintain a reasonable noise level.

I've got the NR200P max, which is the same I think it just comes with an AIO. I didn't install any additional fans on top of the AIO and I've been totally fine - Control and Cyberpunk both have reasonable temps on my 3070.

https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/dan-c4-sfx.12329/page-123#post-271666 The Dan C4-SFX will be 14.7 liters instead of the previously planned 13.37 (  ), looking at the compatibility list of currently announced RTX 4080/4090 and RX 7900 cards this makes sense and the larger dimensions probably aren't very noticeable unless you put the smaller version right next to the large one (which you can't). E: I think 2023 is realistic, but fair: It was already supposed to be out "soon" in 2020

While the trend for GPU sizes has been going in the opposite direction for three refresh generations now, this case is even more aimed at putting the fastest hardware into an ITX box than eg. the A4 or A4-H2O. He already makes cases where you can only fit 2-slot FEs and approximately three basic AIB models per card. That's also not an exaggeration, the compatibility list for RX 7900 partner cards in the small version of the C4 lists exactly two models. For RTX 4090 partner cards it's zero. He probably wants to avoid the situation of the Dan A4 and RTX 3080 cards, where the compatibility list included FE cards and EVGA XC3 models (which they never really made/sold) and nothing else. It's not safe to bet on the slower cards ending up being significantly smaller, with the possible exception of reference models. And while FE cards might be almost sensible, their availability is limited (in quantity but especially location, they're not sold in every country) and the alternative partner cards all tend to be (way) larger. For AMD cards the problem is similar, the AMD RX 7900 cards are small (but also somewhat limited by that "tiny" cooler, and also not available everwhere and only in small numbers) while all the partner cards are gigantic. So the 4090 might be ridiculous but the case creator can't really aim for the "average" 4070 or RX 7800 cards which are not out yet, without losing yet another few months. And the lesson from the RTX 2000 and the RTX 3000/RX 6000 generations is that especially the third party vendors will often move their oversized coolers down the stack longer than they need to, in order to save on tooling cost and so they can pump another 20% power through the card for bars that are 5% longer.

The founders edition cards don't really work in sandwich design cases because the airflow can't pass through the card. Maybe there are workarounds but with my A4 it would be a no-go. I have a 3070 XC3 which just about fits.

IIRC (from reading people using the 3080 FE cards in the A4), they work fine after removing the plastic foil and using standoffs for the riser.
