I would agree. I hated doing the Auto X events. But then it was awesome to take the car to the Dyno and then test it. About to dust off the PS2.

So I was advised to buy an UPS for my computer. But I have no idea where to start.

Here is my set up.
Mobo: ASUS B550-F

Storage: ADATA XPG PRO 1TB
RAM: Corsair LPX3600 (32GB)
CPU: Ryzen 5600X
Cooling: Corsair H60 AIO Pump
GPU: PNY Single Fan 1660 Super
PSU: Corsair 750W


According to PC Part Picker my estimated wattage is 294W.

Make sure you get a pure sine wave output UPS, not a cheap stepped sine wave one. Your power supply won’t like the stepped input. I had a stepped one first and as soon as you switched to the battery power my PSU started buzzing loudly.

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?

Here’s a good explanation:

Here’s what I would get:

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'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...
