Tech Show - Assembling the Ryzen 9 5950X RTX-3080 Game Development System
Copyright ©2021 Demenzun Media. All rights reserved.
I purchased a new Ryzen 9 5950X plus NVidia RTX-3080 computer system for video game development.
This video covers a quick stop-motion animation of the computer system assembly.
I swapped out the initial Noctua NH-U9S cooler for the Noctua NH-D15 to get an additional 10C of cooling.
The Noctua NH-U9S cooler was getting temperatures in the 80C+ range at 100% CPU usage.
I swapped out the NZXT H440 Quiet Case for the Lian Li LANCOOL II Mesh RGB to get better airflow.
The NZXT H440 simply has too restricted airflow for a high performance computer such as this.
I was also originally going to put the Samsung 970 EVO 2500MB/s in as the Windows OS drive.
But the 980 PRO supports PCIe 4.0 speeds up to 7000MB/s so I purchased one of those for the main drive.
This system initially had thermal issues as discussed on many AMD forum threads.
The fix was a simple change to the BIOS Precision Boost Overdrive setting for Thermal Throttle set to Manual 80C.
For video game development this computer is simply incredible.
Unreal Engine 4 works virtually instant for any functionality and lighting builds are rapid.
I also added a 7-inch mini HDMI Monitor for a NZXT CAM software display to monitor the CPU and GPU.
The complete system parts list:
- AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core 32-Thread processor
- Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black dual-tower cooler
- ASUS ROG X570 Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi motherboard
- 128GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 memory
- ASUS TUF Gaming OC 10GB RTX-3080 video
- Cooler Master V850 Gold V2 850 Watt psu
- Samsung 980 PRO 1TB NVMe 7000MB/s (Windows)
- Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe 2500MB/s (Temp)
- Crucial MX500 2TB SATA SSD 500MB/s (Data)
- WD Green 2TB hard drive (Data Backup)
- WB Blue 1TB hard drive (OS Clone)
- Ducky ONE 2 White LED mechanical keyboard
- Microsoft IntelliMouse Classic
- Microsoft XBox Controller
- Dell S3220DGF 32-inch Curved 2560x1440 165Hz monitor
- Mackie CR4 Reference Monitor speakers
- Windows 10 Professional x64
