My new PC
🕑 Added 2023-03-06 19:05:42 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
I have very good news! After almost 10 years, I finally got a new PC. :D
Back in October 2013 was my last build. I changed parts like my GPU and RAM and replaced some broken parts like my Motherboard and PSU during the years and always added some additional harddrives, but never changed the core system.
But it finally happened. I have waited really long for good components and loved to get these new parts:
- AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
- Noctua NH-D15 with Arctic MX-2
- GIGABYTE B550 AORUS Elite V2
- G.Skill Trident Z Neo DIMM Kit 32GB, DDR4-3600, CL14-14-14-34
- WD_BLACK SN850X 2TB
My old GPU, Soundcard, Case, PSU, SSDs and HDDs will stay in my new PC.
- AMD Radeon PowerColor RX 5700 Red Dragon
- ASUS ROG Xonar Phoebus
- Fractal Design Arc Midi R2
- Fractal Design Ion Gold 550W
- Samsung SSD 830 128GB with my old Windows 10 Install
- Crucial MX500 2TB
- Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB
- Seagate Desktop ST2000DM001 HDD 2TB
I will probably install two Arctic F12 120mm fans I have laying around from my pre-2013 PC (AMD Phenom II X4 955), to keep everything even cooler.
And I'm planning to get a new GPU this year. But for a resonable price, I have patience and don't support this current nonsense. Also a new WQHD monitor is also on my list. On my list since 2014 xD
Over the last week I installed a completly new Windows 11, got all programs running on it, and optimized my PC with overclocking and undervolting.
The MoBo got a new BIOS update, so I can use PBO and CO on my new 5800X3D.
Running at CO -30 offset. The Noctua keeps it at about 60-65°C under game load. And my RAM was overclocked to 3800 CL14. Everything stable so far.
And now to the next pleasent part. Your support guys!
Almost every new part was funded by your donations. I have saved for months/years to get enough money for this amazing Upgrade. And now it here!
I can't tell you how happy I am with my new PC. It's so fricking fast, slient, plus new space for many games and videos! I'll put it to great use and have fun with it.
Thanks again for all your amazing support over all these years, and also to the newcomers! I'm always happy to see new supporters :)

Nice thing about the AMD, you can upgrade the CPU without having to replace the motherboard. On a different note, I saw your video on Youtube re. better Graphic Mods for KSP. Very well done
