Built a new gaming PC this weekend! My first upgrade since 2015 RTX 4070 Super + 14900K! My previous rig had a GTX 970 and an i5-4690K, so this is a MASSIVE upgrade 😅 - ThreadSky

Massive is an understatement there lol

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

HAH definitely 🤣 I couldn't even play Satisfactory without crashes. Now I'm rocking 150 FPS at max settings 😎👍

doberdog.bsky.social•107 days ago

Satisfactory sucks so much of my free time.

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

LOL same here ... 400 hours logged since 1.0 released 🤣

kinter.deer.place•107 days ago

ooo pretty

drewbycorgi.bsky.social•107 days ago

Oooooh you went with that pretty ass case 🫦 I wish they made a micro ITX version!

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

I freaking love it! The wood is sooooo slick.

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

Nice setup btw!

soka.bsky.social•107 days ago

Talk nerdy to me, Handlebars 😻😻

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

I've got a 4TB NVMe SSD + 2x 16GB DDR5, on a MSI PRO Z790-A MAX MB, and an Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360mm AIO cooler for the CPU :3

Now where's that locker room at, jock >.>

soka.bsky.social•107 days ago

What are you using for a monitor to take advantage of that additional frame rate? When I rebuild I'm probably going to consolidate my storage because right now I have three different nvmes lol.

You sure earned your time with the jock cat. Commere n play ;)

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

Just a 144 Hz, 1080p LG monitor for now. Thinking of upgrading to a 1440p monitor in the near future 👀

soka.bsky.social•107 days ago

With that hardware I recommend a 1440p OLED. They're often like 240hz or higher! Perfect for your setup.

They're coming down in price a ton and are simply incredible. It's my next pickup I think.

doberdog.bsky.social•107 days ago

Similar config to mine. I think I have the same MB and 2x16GB DDR5. 4070 Ti Super since it has 16GB GDDR RAM.

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

Nice! Yea the 12GB on the 4070 Super was a sliiiight drawback, but it's enough for the typical games I play.

doberdog.bsky.social•107 days ago

And Satisfactory runs so smooooth.

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

Oh my gosh yes!! I'm getting consistent 120 fps even in my densest factories!!

My last PC barely broke 40 with the lowest possible settings. And textures took foooorever to load because of my HDD... 🤣

dracky.bsky.social•107 days ago

Ay I have the same case!! :D Grats on your upgrade, wow!

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

Thank you! I absolutely LOVE the wood front on this case, looks so slick!

lanead.bsky.social•103 days ago

How are you liking the North XL so far? I've loved the look of this case since it came out

nunavuttuktu.bsky.social•62 days ago

You know those games are only for kids older than 13 😏

ricochetcurl.bsky.social•107 days ago

Oh HELL YEAH! Sick upgrade friend!! Always feels sooo good when doing all at once upgrades!

onishift.bsky.social•107 days ago

Oh dang I was looking at that exact case. Let me know how it went.

buckley.deer.place•107 days ago

It went great! Very roomy case, I had no issues fitting my 360mm AIO cooler in there. Airflow seems good based on my first day of use. Cable management was easy too.
