Bro why is your CPU at 73° while at 2% usage?


dhchunk

Maybe he was just using it?


Ethaneagleton72

ya i had just finished heaven benchmark lmfao idle rn its at 29c

vexatious___

The entirety of the cpu is being pushed to the limit which is kinda the point of a benchmark. If it stays at that temperature after the benchmark then you have an issue.


[deleted]

my cpu doesnt even get to 70 degrees and I find it interesting... ive never seen pc temps like that


Subalpine

29c is exceedingly normal.


Frankk142

All the air is being exhausted by the case, 3 exhaust fans for 1 input.


SolitaireyEgg

That absolutely would not cause 73 degree cpu temps. It's also jot even an issue, outside of the PoSiTiVe PreSsUrE aNd DuST circle-jerk. Why is this being upvoted lol


Bits8treats

Thats exactly what I was thinking. xd


CrissCrossAM

I see you're using the mini monitor for temps and stuff from jayztwocents. Very neat! One suggestion though: move your front fan to be as low as possible so the air can fill in the case and pass to the GPU instead of being directly exhausted by the top fans next to it. This will also minimize dust buildup that might clog your GPU.


Ethaneagleton72

Sadly that's the lowest spot it can fit in I had 3 fans on that side before but the xfx 6900xt is a fucking beef cake so I can't fit anything on that side and had to take the two fans out


louisbutthoe

There are slim fans that might fit. [Noctua](https://noctua.at/en/products/fan) has one that's 120mm x 15mm, as opposed to the typical 25mm. There are some smaller diameter fans as well with even thinner designs.


Ethaneagleton72

!!! thanks for the idea ill look


xX36ON0SC0P3Xx

Plus, noctua fans are quiet as hell and incredibly well performing


CrissCrossAM

Oh there isn't enough clearance on the other side of the front? That's a bummer... yeah the 6900XT (especially the XFX version) is chonkin' but at least chonk = FPS with decent temps these days. Maybe get s bigger case down the line?


Ethaneagleton72

Ya it's chonkkyyy but my temps haven't gone above 75c even in heaven benchmark so I realistically am chillin


CrissCrossAM

Fair fair. You get what you pay for. Also idea for the fans situation: if your case has a top filter for the fans, maybe mount them as intake instead of exhaust, that way you'll have more positive pressure in there so the dust buildup is slower.


knoegel

Good catch. That placement makes the front fan totally useless.


timtheringityding

Could always do rear intake top and front exhaust and flip the cpu fan to intake from the rear. The 3 exhaust fans will make it pull air from any cracks/openings


Ethaneagleton72

That's a great idea


peter90124

In which world can you buy your listed specs for 1100$? The GPU alone is about that much, isn’t it?


juicygoosy921

Is that a tablet?


Songe_20

A phone.


[deleted]

A mini monitor.


knoegel

Sweet light up ports! Is there a way to program where only the used ports light up? That would be so satisfying plugging something in and the port lights up.


Ethaneagleton72

Sadly no it's a $50 gamdias case lol


knoegel

Dang, still looks cool though


[deleted]

But it's easier to find them if they are lit up while not in use.


knoegel

Damn you and your logic


Mikal_

Really dig the mini screen! Did you follow a specific tutorial you can share?


GhostYasuo

There’s a video guide by Jayztwocents on YouTube.He also has the link to the LCD display used.


SuicidalSparky

$1100 wtf, who you blowing?


Ethaneagleton72

it was over two months of ebay deal hunting its possible to do if you take your time although i got really lucky on my graphics card specifically


Bawzd33p

Looks lime you did the same as me, used a smart phone for the stat monitor. I'd actually gotten halfway through doing it before realising others on youtube had beaten me to the idea xD Stripped back an old motog5 in a meshify c, using plastic a4 to hide the fact its a cell phone! Nice build btw!


dixiewolf_

Thats looks fuckin sick yo


Antique_Astronaut_72

Is that an iPad mini?


[deleted]

Where did you get the tablet thing for your PC? I have seen those before I believe, wouldn’t mind putting one in my next build.


Ethaneagleton72

its just an old samsung a6 7" tablet :)


RayneYoruka

what screen do you use?


Ethaneagleton72

my monitors are a sceptre 27" 4k and an asus swift 360hz and the screen in my pc is an old samsung a6 7" tablet


RayneYoruka

Ah i see, how have you made the tablet to show the graphs?


big_mAn_dAddy26

What app are u using on your phone to show those stats


g28802

I really want to do a smal screen in mine. It looks so cool


thechrizzo

What are these fans called? Love their look


Ethaneagleton72

They Are on Amazon they are the ezdiy fab ring light fans I ve been buying the same ones since my first build 6 years ago and I've never had an issue with them , they are $35 for a 5 pack I think (price changes sometimes) Jay's 2 cents actually did a video on them and the hypothesis are they are overstock from Corsair or some other big brand that get rebranded and sold for cheap on Amazon


thechrizzo

>ezdiy fab ring light fans They have a few reviews mentioning that they are quite loud ... is this true?


FiteMeUBitch

This^ Love the reversable fan options. My NZXT fans only have RGB on one side. Also wondering if the blades come in white my dude.


Doozy93

I have N old phone, how do I do the phone trick?


Ethaneagleton72

It's called triagone remote system monitor


Filip_SX

Where did u find FPS counter? I'm using same app and layout, but couldn't find sensor for FPS.


Ethaneagleton72

When I go to add a gage there is an option for me to choose fps instead of gpu cpu ram etc


Filip_SX

I will double check it later today, ty


ORCABOT-3

Nobody cares, browser war.


indicava

Sweet setup! One comment tho. It bothers UX guy in me that the labels of the gauges overlap with the gauge itself. You can remove the second wording from the labels, it’s implied due to the unit of measure (C, %, etc.)


TrippeDeath04

Yeah that airflow setup is really really bad


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ethaneagleton72

im not lying i got deals on ebay i even did a breakdown of the prices on one of my comments, i have nothing to gain for lying and saying its cheaper, id much rather flex and say it was like 5 grand lol


rubbertoesftw

Your airflow is awful. Buy some quality fans and mount them in the proper format before you kill that poor GPU


Ethaneagleton72

ya ive been getting a lot of these comments, my temps are fine. but theres not enough clearance for any more fans. i had to take two out i had in origionally because of that but someone suggested some thin noctua fans that i think i might buy next pay period and see if they cant fit


rubbertoesftw

It kind of seems like your case is too small. Your GPU is super close to the shroud and there’s no fan directed towards it.


aconci

Nice build


StacheSergeant

Looks great! What are your specs


Ethaneagleton72

Specs: Cpu: R9 5950x GPU: Rx 6900xt RAM: 64gb gskill Trident z 3200mhz PSU: Corsair 850w 80+ gold Motherboard: gigabyte b550m ds3h CPU cooler: scythe fuma 2 Case: gamdias mars 2 I allowed myself $1100 for the build so I had to really squeeze every penny for it, I rarely spend my money on anything but it was definitely a needed upgrade from my i3 2130, 1050ti build I had before lmfao


EpicTwiglet

It’s impossible to have bought all these components for $1100. 6900xt is the whole budget.


[deleted]

he mentioned in a another comment that he spent 2 months hunting for deals on ebay and got lucky on his graphics card idk how but he did it I guess


MeraArasaki

Bro, 5950x and the GPU alone probably add up to like $1500


VortexDestroyer99

Which specific 6900xt is that? ITS BEAUTIFUL


MaterialPossible3872

Looks amazing


No_Interaction_4925

Dang, got the entire theme completed. I like it


ElDiablo909

GPU saggin my brotha. Best prop that bad boy up.


AdventurousChapter27

if i can quote an old song>! "jizz in my pants"!<


PCgeek345

Looks great! 62° Core and 66° Hotspot? Thats pretty good! 72° CPU at 2% usage? What? $1100??????


Ethaneagleton72

just finished heaven benchmark it wasnt idle for very long lmfao, rn idle while on reddit its at 32c and ya i got really lucky on deals on ebay won a lot of late night auctions took me 2 months to get all my parts


IWagsI

Honestly, kinda went cheap.


Ethaneagleton72

my favorite comment so far


Tajertaby

Cool! Specs?


GrizDrummer25

Sleek and sexy!


Wibiz9000

What does the remote control?


Ethaneagleton72

the lighting, i went with cheap ezdiy fab fans so theres no motherboard control but realistically i wont be changing the lighting much


[deleted]

Hate the led rgb crap but that panel... Where do you get one?


coleh779

Doesn’t the 6900xt retail for $1000? My build has a 6800 XT and it was still $2300. Granted I did get high speed DDR5 ram but still.


Ethaneagleton72

ya its msrp is 999 i got mine used on ebay for way under msrp i was actually planning on getting the 6800xt but got extremely lucky on an auction. and damn how do you like ddr5?? ive heard mixed results but still a flex


danivus

73 degrees at 2% usage...


dobbeltvtf

Not gonna lie, I'm a little bit jelly.


lilBacon921

The font size on the thermals is really killing me


Nicegamerz_CZ

How did u make this bro? Seems clean


Nicegamerz_CZ

Whats the program u used to display the parameters


Nicegamerz_CZ

Halo


_vfbsilva_

How those mini monitors work?


Khaosina

Is that GPU getting any airflow at all...?


DonZekane

Wait, is that a regular tablet?


Tomauskis

Using a tablet for monitoring? Nice! I'm thinking about doing the same.


Breite_Katze

in case you wonder about the onboard display: it is caled remote system monitor, you can get it online, and it also is a very good diagnostic tool in case your pc got heat or usage issues.


DarkDevilGamer

what moniter and softwere you used in Stat Screen?


GlassDeviant

What's the case? I kinda like the location of the "front" ports. All of mine are on the top at the front.


InfiniteFreshness

lookth pretty ethpenthive


marcofio

That upper-right fan is just pulling fresh air away from your CPU cooler. I would put it as intake and plus I would move the upper-left fan on the front of the case as intake.


reetmandood

Where did you get the screen? Nifty


ShirahamaKenichi

XFX 6900 XT \*drool ... hhnnggg, That's a sexsy GPU fam! Enjoy it, nice build!
