Hopefully got everyone pms answered and finally got pics up. Also updated some additional parts fs.

Hey guys so sorry for lack of replies, super slammed in life ATM. I have not had a chance to hook up drives and run reports, but just to set expectations correctly the drives were all pulled out of 24/7 servers or nas arrays so the have a ton of usage and power on hours.

What about just a HDMI 2.1 slim cable then you can twist it the way you need it? Just thinking you could get a tighter radius than something like an adapter maybe?

You could load up on 20tb refurb drives from server parts for $180 each, but as above states you need to define requirements for build, like throughput or transcoding for plex maybe?

I think you are going to have a tough time to get something as small as an xbox and as powerful in the same price range.... it is effectivly an 8 core zen 2 AMD and a rx 6800 class hardware, your best bet is probably a gaming laptop or something like this...

For the ssds roughly 70tb written and 10k hrs but if you need specific info I can pm crystal disk info

They are 2.5: sata ssds

+1 for alien that scared the crap out of me as kid, but love the recess pieces GLWS

I believe they are 7200 but I will double-check

Yes indeed

I got a few listed in my fsft post https://hardforum.com/threads/fs-cpu-gpu-2230-nvme-m-2-ssds-great-for-steamdeck-hdds.2016369/ too if the above does not work out.

I would say take a look at this video by eta prime, not sure if you have the same deals up there but you can get a ton of pc power on the cheap, and just drop in a modern gpu.

I would say think of it like a dodge hellcat vs a corvette c8 you would think the 707 HP Hellcat would smoke the 485HP Corvette, but they are very close except in full stop 1/4 mile drag. I would suggest though looking for a used cheaper 5900x/5950x / 5800x3d upgrade though vs a new platform...

Yeah I have nvme and 2x 128gb sata doms ... Sent pm

It looks like the 2133 8gb ddr4 is dual rank 2rx8 from the label hope that helps.

All PMS replied and thread adjusted.

So what would you do if say have a b450 amd build.. any upside to z690 and 1270k vs an AMD 5800xt?

FYI here is a better chart comparing gpu https://www.elpamsoft.com/?p=Plex-Hardware-Transcoding.

Haha yeah join the rebellion, or you know wait 2 weeks and see the AM5 stuff or 13 series Intel stuff and see if the price to performance balance changes.

I just got a 64gb from queue, so they are starting to come out. If you snag one of the smaller ones I have a ton of 256gb 2230 ssds listed in fsft and a really easy swap if your interested.

I am pretty sure steam link caps at 1080p maybe 4k and 60fps or at least the last time i used it. Best bet to enjoy your rig on fancy display is to move it ;) Or you know build a second rig...
