I'm sorry haha. I'm more of mechanical type of guy. I basically had to ask the guys here on what components to get when I was building the PC. Me and electricity/electronics don't get along. What brand and model would you recommend?

I'm actually pretty excited about this game! Me and a friend have been playing the Blitzkrieg mod for COH so now we are both pretty pumped.

It appears Ryzen 9 5900x are now becoming readily available. And while my Ryzen 5 5600x is perfectly fine for gaming (since I do that 95% of the time), I still have the desire to return back to an R9 just for bragging rights of having a potent SFF build.

Speaking of SFFPC, I just built my R7 3800X RTX 2080S tower into an NR200 with the ATX PSU I had. It’s so small now and somehow quieter and my temps are the same!

If you sell you 5600x would love to snag it for a good deal

I got you fam. I'll probably take the plunge at the end of the month when I get paid again. Send me a Pm when you get a chance.

I'm trying to maximize my H1. It's awesome having a small PC that's powerful.

H1 was my second choice but I didn’t want to jump to watercooling. Instead I shoehorned my Noctua NHU12A in the NR200. The fit is very borderline.

sffpc? had to look that one up... small form factor pc? been there, done that!

i've had more processing power in my car than most had at home. had to be no taller than 1.5" so the seat could clear, but was a complete system with a dc-dc psu. was pretty cutting edge for 2009...

I've seen a lot of people do that lol. I've joined the Jay Two cents liquid cooling cult

Aww yeaaaaa! I was driving around with a headless laptop shoved under the backseat! And me and my friend hacked apart and crammed an entire Dell Tower in the first aid compartment of his trunk! Carputers were the shit back then!

i cut my teeth on mp3car. the community there was awesome in so many ways with people pushing the absolute boundaries of everything. very few forums had or still have such a diverse group of members. now, i think mo-co-so is the only company left, and mostly because they shifted to industrial pc applications before everyone else started falling apart.

Yeah I used to troll MP3Car and even met up with a guy from there that would make adapters for the HD Radios so you could control them from the front ends. Good times. We made such complicated setups that a few years later are replaced by all but a phone.
