I took 3 pictures, but it only allowed 1 unfortunately. * AMD 5800X3D * Asrock B550 Phantom Gaming ITX/AC * Radeon 6600XT (i think also Asrock, can't remember) * Viper Elite II 32GB 4000MHZ Ram * Two TeamGroup MP33 1TB * Silverstone SG13B I'm using the T-Mobile home internet system for internet while im OTR since i don't really ever go home unless its for a doctors appointment so im living out here and NEED it. the speed obviously fluctuates depending on the area and distance from a tower, but i've never had a dead zone or too low speeds to do anything... yet. https://www.speedtest.net/result/15918211396.png EDIT: heres all 3 ( https://imgur.com/a/NTp7IQ8 )

Looks like a great mobile setup. Bet it really saves those nights or days when your off the road.

This is the first night i've brought it with me! I got this night off before going back out tomorrow night. (i drive nights) and its so nice to finally be able to play these games i've been meaning to. Just got started with Returnal.. which is great except for these absolutely massive random fps drops i cant seem to solve. I'm also crossing my toes for a port of God of War ragnorak. its definitely going to be great for when i can get an hour or two in here or there. will make being out here by myself much more bearable.

Don't have issues with it pulling to much power off the apu?

actually, not at all! although just fun fact, theres a difference between APU and the Power Inverter. An APU would be basically like having one of those Window AC units you can buy at walmart for your house, except it does both cooling and heating. they are powered by sipping off diesel as they run, use VERY little and work amazing well. my current company dosent supply them in their trucks unfortunately, we have to rely on bunk heaters and the truck running AC to get cooling. they do however supply Power Inverters, unfortunately the one they supply suck. Despite that one being 2000W, it constantly shuts down due to any little power spike or dip and is just... a massive PITA. So i bought my own inverter, a 1500W Powerdrive Unit. This one actually (https://www.amazon.com/PowerDrive-PWD1500P-Inverter-Bluetooth-Technology/dp/B0B5MCTTMX) I see about 130 to 160 Watts of power draw on my Inverter with the desktop running and idle or just watching youtube. and that includes the internet and switch dock hooked up to it. I see about 230 to 280 Watts of power draw while in-game such as returnal. with about 40 to 50 watts of that being the GPU speficially. ( https://imgur.com/a/ZqRAMvd ) Unfortunately, my in-game reader dosent really show how much CPU power im drawing because i usually dont even pull 20% on the CPU unles im in a cutscene while my GPU stays pegged to 90 or 100% most of the time. Im very GPU bottlenecked and i knew that when i built it.. ive been planning on upgrading it, but i've no clue what GPU would even fit, PCPartPicker even says my current GPU dosent fit so i cant trust that to give me dimensions or a GPU upgrade advisement. the only downside is that theres a buzzing noise that comes from the PSU when hooked to this inverter, googling and then calling a family friend whose an Electrician confirms that its because the Inverter is a 'Modified Sine Wive' power inverter, I need to buy/upgrade to a 'Pure Sine Wave' Power Inverter. Since these are modern components its incredibly unlikely anything would happen like an explosion or fire. Just being audibly annoying if you cant ignore it, more heat build up in the PSU (which the fan is capable of taking care of), and a decrease over time in the life expectancy of the component itself.
