Description
Fun build for the family living room PC. All around gaming, streaming, and media storage computer.
It does everything well at max resolution on a 65" big screen. I was limited to a case that would fit inside my TV stand.
The main issue I had was the HEAT! This little case is beautiful. The heat was extremely difficult to get under control though. I didn't overclock the CPU because it would have been even more difficult and not necessary. The GPU has a slight OC. Not enough to push the temps. I made some modifications to the case to let in some cool air in on the side panel. Extra fan placement was necessary as well. I was running around 50- 55c idle before the modifications. Now it idles around 42-50c during a light load. The NoiseBlocker fans really helped with good airflow and very low noise. Really happy with the keyboard and mouse selection. The range is excellent with zero lag. I might add a slimline blue ray when I am able. I just couldn't get the parts necessary in Indonesia. Also, I may expand to another SSD as needed for storage.
The system has been up and running for over a month now and I couldn't be much happier. Overall a quiet computer with black/red theme (led) for the HTPC. It's not distracting or noisy and does everything well.
