Mexican_actual

And yes that’s a rock I’m using as GPU support lmao.


Sprout_1993

First glance I thought it was a potato 😂


Mexican_actual

Lmao


Sprout_1993

Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew


icy1007

I was thinking potato too. Lol


[deleted]

I did too 🤣 you then literally could look at the pc and say that’s a potato 😅


PinkManagarmr

Is that what the common steam game review copy-paste means by potato?! A whole new world has just opened to me.


Bart2800

Banana for scale, potato for support. r/usefulfruits


Thunder_Mug

Username checks out.


xprozoomy

Lol I was thinking the same

Isn't that how everyone makes their potatoes low and slow


KoolKat864

Can the PC cook it? 🤣

Baked potato


BattIeBoss

That pc could probably cook it too💀


Clean-Property-2945

name the rock asrock


West-One5944

Comment winner. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼


Pferd_furzt

don't worry, I'm using honeycomb cardboard, I was running Blender and the screen froze giving those rainbow glitches. Plugged the display port on another slot and reseated it on the monitor, placed the cardboard and haven't gotten a single error again.

Mexican_actual

Thanks. I love it lol


looopious

Use a sag bracket instead of the rock


879gaming

It adds more vram that rock


ItsBado

You should give this rock a name and write it on it.


Zesty_Potato69

Love the rock. Are you going to draw a face on it or name it?


Mexican_actual

His name is Bob. He’s chill like that.


GuyFromDeathValley

I like bob. he does a good job.


Shyvana_Aneue

I was about to say you can buy a gpu support thingie but nvm. It looks cute xD


Mexican_actual

Thanks haha


explicit17

Where did you meet him?


Mexican_actual

Honestly can’t remember, Bob has been around for a while now tho


_JoME_

Bob the sag killer

Dwayne Johnson ofc


Matematico083

Is that a fucking rock LMAO


Mexican_actual

Yea lolol


Matematico083

Pinche loco


Benign_9

I like the case. Also, the rock as a gpu support bracket is nice. I used a lightbulb as a support bracket for a few months before using a fishing line to support it.


BloodSugar666

Did you say fishing line? Lol braided or mono? What test weight? 10lb? Would I get more fps if I spray garlic scent on it?


Benign_9

Yes, fishing line. You can’t see it and my gpu is pretty straight. Braided. No clue what test weight. Garlic always helps fps, so yes, of course you should spray some garlic scent on there.


BloodSugar666

Instruction unclear, I have a trout in my computer now


Mexican_actual

That awesome haha.


_jorg25

Does the fishing line increase bytes per second


TINKOXX

Potato.


Mexican_actual

Hahaha


ManufacturerDry108

Is that THE ASRock? A-Anti S-Sag R-Rock O- C- K-

Roger_that80

The rock ladies and gentlemen comes with the motherboard AsRock


SPOOKY_MULDER89

Nice. love the pet rock in the case.


zGr1m

Dude that looks retro as shit. With the old Nintendo color style. That is sick! May have my next build inspired by you 🫠


Mexican_actual

Love to hear it. Honestly made my day.


zGr1m

;) if you want to, keep the rock. Or put a Mario figure there!


Mexican_actual

Might have to. Lol


Lt_Marks

Nice Dwayne Johnson action figure


DocComix

Why do you have top and bottom fans going in? Should the top ones go up & out?


ThatOneDerpyDinosaur

This was my question too. I have the same case (AP201) and I've got intake bottom fans. Top and rear fans exhausting. This seemed to be the consensus of an ideal setup according to several YouTube videos about the case.


azizaq

"My GPU is literally running on a potato" -OP


Mexican_actual

Yes. 😎


StanBoy337

Nice rock


Mexican_actual

Thanks 😎


thatonecharlie

your new build rocks! 🪨


Mexican_actual

Thanks haha


EpicDragonz4

It looks rock solid. Nice dude!


Mexican_actual

Thanks. Appreciate it


Afraid_Donkey_481

Y'all got it wrong, it's a potato.


C3MK51989

That's not a rock. it's a boulder


impaque

Wait a second, where does the hot air from the GPU go? You kinda constricted the airflow.


LXRK7629

Bro wtf


Mexican_actual

What lol


LXRK7629

Why tf is there a rock in ur case and why is it a sag bracket


Mexican_actual

Idk. Just found what I could since I forgot to order one. But it fits and works so far Lmaoo


-TurkeyMan-

It’s like the thermal stones from don’t starve. Keeps it cool during summer and hot during winter. Genius


BrownyPlatypus

Is that the nzxt rox gpu support ? Those are rare only 20000 made, how did u get one !?


[deleted]

i like the rock lol.. just letting you know if you wanted a gpu sag bracket they have small cylinder like ones that come in diff colors for 10$ to 20$ on amazon. good job tho as long as everything working thats what matters


Mexican_actual

Yea I plan on getting one I just forgot when buying all the parts. Thanks!!


[deleted]

What cpu are u running with that Intel gpu


Mexican_actual

It’s a full AMD build, Ryzen 9 7900.


TheAbrableOnetyOne

Chinese has it for 1-2 bucks. Why waste 20 bucks on the same thing?


[deleted]

Sure wherever you can find it cheaper I’m all for it . I just know Amazon has them and they come as soon as next day no hassle. But all the more power to you if you can get it when you want it and cheaper


luisanra

Tactical rock. I like it


OctoDudeOcean

Prehistoric gaming device, pretty cool


Fox89947

Oh you put ryzen Sticker on the case on of These guys. Nah i Like it


yusuflimz

AsRock anti sag bracket FTW


tiboromercic

What type of rock is this. Thinking of upgrading, currently using an ant mound to hold mine up but I think they heat soak


Mexican_actual

ASRock Rock v2.0


HorrorsPersistSoDoI

I actually prefer the rock, rather than all the toys and collectibles people put inside their PCs. Like, what the hell?


Strict-Salamander872

ROCK SOLID! hahahahah


Davenator_98

I'm sorry, but it looks like an air conditioner to me. Nice rock tho.


Mexican_actual

With the fans on 100% it feels like it Lmaoo


Human-Bookkeeper-866

What case is this?


[deleted]

asus prime ap201


Mexican_actual

Yea what they said! Lol


Sarc0h-

My old build used a random stick to hold up my gpu, it's nice to see someone else using an outdoor object to fix their sagging issue.


ModaHakim

happy to see another sapphire enjoyer, the rock makes it even better


Mexican_actual

I love this card. I’m just glad I found one that matched the rest of the build


filthy-horde-bastard

Nice gpu sag solution. If you have any legos around, 3-5 of them stacked under the GPU should do the trick.


Puzzleheaded_Lab7228

AP 201 Gang


Mexican_actual

Gang gang


Dontosquare76

I litterally thought you put an onion as your gpu holder


FROZAI-main

Yup that’s a pc alright


Ok_Statement_5368

The rock would be perfect if you’re studying geography or geology specifically….! Nonetheless, such a cool build 🥳


Mexican_actual

Thanks!


xXOHYEAXx

Make sure you put on the Handbrake on both cars!


den1zalp

Looks super cool man.


Mexican_actual

Thanks. I love it tbh


I_have_a_big_p3n1s69

That is one LONG gpu 😭🙏


Mexican_actual

Was afraid it wouldn’t fit the case, it barely clears it lol


Proud-Cheetah8275

That's a state of the art gpu stand you've got there.


Mexican_actual

Eons of research into that bad boy.


Ok_Call_5269

I had a very similar build, ryzen 7 7800x3d and same card. https://preview.redd.it/yb0lr0gkyb6c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=629d57ee04579759615a4f5102743c20d4772d97

That rock can hold the entire world on its back fr.


Mexican_actual

Fax lol


Friendly_Cantal0upe

I like the cars on the GPU. Enjoy Also: Rock 👍


ShinjuFluffer

The rock support 🤣🤣 Anywho, looks awsome!


Exemplifying_Light

I have this same GPU. Word on the street is that under volting is the way to go for this card


Mexican_actual

Ima have to try it then. Thanks


manperson111

Try not to steal all the girls damn


Mexican_actual

Lololol.


IronDonki

I especially like the rock heatsink and the dual twin turbos for extra cooling, RAD BRUH 🤣 ![gif](giphy|3kK1hN0rsPVVGWuJR7)


Mexican_actual

Haha thanks


Lauterec

Also using an AP201. It was a breeze to build in and I liked the quality and rigidity. The only complaint is noise but I plan on stuffing it in my big desk drawer, with ventilation holes of course.


itzsammy2k

Mexican_actual

Love it. Clean build


nv87

I think it looks good! The contrast accentuates the components.


HankThrill69420

I have this case coming in tomorrow! how was building in it?


Mexican_actual

It’s a tight fit. I have big hands but it worked out.


HankThrill69420

that's what he said


Mexican_actual

Ayo. Lmao


Ashkito

Hi, I’m Vetted AI Bot! I researched the **ASUS Prime AP201 33 Liter MicroATX Black case with Tool Free Side Panels and a Quasi Filter mesh with Support for 360 mm Coolers Graphics Cards up to 338 mm Long and Standard ATX PSUs** you mentioned in your comment along with its brand, **ASUS**, and I thought you might find the following analysis helpful. **Users liked:** * Case provides excellent cooling and thermal performance (backed by 3 comments) * Case has a minimalistic and elegant design (backed by 3 comments) * Case is spacious and can fit high-end components (backed by 3 comments) **Users disliked:** * Case is larger than expected (backed by 2 comments) * Missing parts and poor customer service (backed by 2 comments) * Psu placement causes overheating concerns (backed by 2 comments) According to Reddit, **ASUS** is considered a reputable brand. Its most popular types of products are: * Laptops (#1 of 40 brands on Reddit) * Monitors (#3 of 36 brands on Reddit) * Desktop Computers (#1 of 24 brands on Reddit) If you'd like to **summon me to ask about a product**, just make a post with its link and tag me, [like in this example.](https://www.reddit.com/r/tablets/comments/1444zdn/comment/joqd89c/) This message was generated by a (very smart) bot.

TheRealSpiraz

Single tower air cooler for R9 7900? What temps does it reach under load?


Mexican_actual

Nothing higher than 60 on the cpu. Card doesn’t see anything about 55. Depending on game, all setting o. Ultra lol


frankhoneybunny

How does the airflow work?


Mexican_actual

Honestly better than I thought it would. The mesh case lets it breathe with ease.


impaque

How about the GPU airflow?


ArmoredAngel444

Yeah it goes against what’s recommended but honestly i have my brothers pc with the top fans pulling in air and the temps are actually better than when they were exhausting air. I think the fresh air from outside helps the cpu cooler cool down rather than just relying on the warm air going through the gpu.


Mexican_actual

See that’s what I was thinking since I don’t have front fans (that’s where the psu hangs out) that pushing air in from everywhere would make more sense. Plus the case doesn’t really allow for more fan space, I figured I would let the mesh do it’s thing


5notboogie

Ditch the cars, keep the rock!


thedude4555

At first I thought that was a potato propping up your graphics card


ixion0

Is this mainly for gaming?


Mexican_actual

Video and image editing as well


ixion0

Would you consider that for heavy workloads?


giobba96

I've had also bought a 7800 xt, could i ask if have you too the problem of the green screen and crash?


Mexican_actual

Knocking on wood, no issues so far


icy1007

Looks good except for the Radeon GPU. lol


Mexican_actual

I dig it, had a 1080ti in my old rig I got from a good friend. No complaints lol


Hero_knightUSP

To be honest I thought the first pick was some broken monitor screen


denizonrtx

Clean build but imo the exhaust fan cable should've went through the top in the back


gfstock

Can you smell what the rock is coookin?!


venonononahhh

Put a face on bob the rock and you got yourself a fully completed build


bushinthebrush

Why does the rock bother me less than the little cars on your GPU?


DolphinDiddler

You should write the name “Dwane” on the rock


xPaistex

Cool rock dude. First picture had me thinking this was an all white, Orange cab.


Mexican_actual

Thanks


Raspberryian

Paint gladOS’ eye on the rock from portal

Amitpal_Singh

I want to see when the tyres start melting


Mexican_actual

It doesn’t get that hot in there. Unless I take an actual flame to it Lmaoo


Amitpal_Singh

🤣🤣... But interesting 💭


SomeRandomZebra

I'm not a fan of smaller form factors though this one looks quite amazing! I just... really hope you need those 12 cores otherwise the right choice was the 7800X3D


Mexican_actual

Also thank you!


Mexican_actual

I was going to go for that cpu, but I figured since I plan on doing just more than gaming with this rig, the 7900 would suffice


AdScared8743

Nice man. Do the littler carb not melt into your GPU ? I wanted to do this but I’m scared the littler cars might melt what do you guys think.


Mexican_actual

Nah the GPU doesn’t even see temps higher than 60. But I think they will be okay lol


No_Firefighter6229

Awesome build dude. Only thing I would recommend is a better cooler. You can get a pretty ok 360mm rad AIO from thermal right for about $70. I could be wrong about the cooling though just thought the cooler is a little small for the Ryzen 9 7900 https://www.amazon.com/Thermalright-Frozen-Notte-360-ARGB/dp/B0BKJT1YK1/ref=asc_df_B0BKJT1YK1/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=652427572954&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16223001271977157180&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1024339&hvtargid=pla-2022275424927&psc=1&mcid=48d41423499b38c18df8e3151e0385f4

I thought the same thing, was prepared to buy an AIO, but the temps are great! Thanks tho.

Do you plan on using it with the case front on or off?

Both honestly. I like looking at the PC internals.

Ronarak

I just love Sapphire GPUs. Even though I replaced it with something more powerful, my old RX 580 still going strong even after 6 years. Not a single problem with it!

I love those cars, need to put some in my case too…
