I7-13700KF + Geforce RTX 3060 Benchmark: State of Decay 2 Ace1000ks1975 2024-06-23 | █▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Synopsis]In this video, i benchmark my computer using State of Decay 2. As I benchmark my computer, I am recording at 1080p 60 fps with a Elgato HD60X. The benchmark results are being displayed with Geforce Experience on the top right corner of the screen. This game is a very CPU heavy dependent game, and I had performance issues with previous computers I used, like the I5-3570K, and I7-4790K. On the I5-3570k with Geforce GTX 1070 8 GB, the FPS was so bad the game wasn't playable. On my I7-4790K with Geforce RTX 3060 12 GB, the game was playable; however when I tried to record the game play at 60 fps using the Elgato HD60X the game wasn't playable. On my I7-10700KF + Geforce RTX 3060 12 GB, it was playable and I was able to record game play without any problems. The I7-10700KF is a replacement for my I5-3570K, and this I7-13700KF is a replacement for my I7-4790K. I must have two gaming computers, one in my bedroom, and another one in my office. I had my I5-3570K for about 11 years, and I had the I7-4790K for about 10 years. These days, your CPU is very important when it comes to running intensive applications, because the number of cores does improve performance. The I7-10700KF has 8 cores and 16 cores with hyper threading, while the I7-13700KF has 16 cores and 24 cores with hyper threading. For modern games having a powerful GPU isn't enough, you must also have a very powerful CPU. On my Dell Precision T5500, I have two CPUs(Xeon X5670 3.07 GHz) processors on it. That computer can run any intensive application without any problems. This is despite it being a 15 year old computer. That computer has 12 base cores and 24 cores with hyper threading. It has two physical processors, and it uses a massive amount of energy. Never the less, it is a very power machine, I use it as a workstation, server, and even gaming at times. This computer has outperforms that machine, and it is much lighter as well. Plus, it has modern features, like USB 3.1/3.2, M.2 NVMe slots, and processor that uses much less power. Part of the benchmark including game capture, which you can see in this video. Using a DVR does use system resources, and being able to do this really tests the mettle of this computer. The CPU temps hovered around 130 °F to 140 ° F (54 ° C to 60 °C). The GPU temps stayed around 170 ° F (77 °C). ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Test System Specs]▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄♦ CPU: Intel I7-13700KF 16 Core Processor♦ GPU: MSI Geforce RTX 3060 12 GB OC♦ RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 (16 GB x 2) 6.4 GHz or 6500 MHz♦ Storage Device Used: • Fanxiang S500 Pro 1 TB M.2 NVMe SSDs ♦ M/B: Asus Prime B760-Plus ATX ♦ O.S.: Windows 11 Home▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Test Software] • State of Decay 2▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█
Antec NX410 ATX Mid Tower Case: Review and Test Ace1000ks1975 2024-06-21 | █▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Synopsis]In this video, I review and test the Antec NX410 Mid Tower ATX Case. This is a very reasonably priced ATX case, and I bought it to replace a 15 year old mid tower ATX case I used previously for this computer. I had a number of issues, like the old case not having front panel connectors for USB 3.1, and a inadequate cooling system. The old ATX case had only one front 120mm intake fan, and a 120mm exhaust fan. The GPU and CPU temps would get very high when I ran intensive 3d programs on it. The computer would crash due to too much heat generation. I had a extra mid tower ATX, so I used it to put together this computer with modern parts. I used that case to put together a AMD Regor Athlon II based computer back in late 2009. I had sold the parts in that old computer back in 2018, so it was practically an empty case with DVD-RW 5.25" drive in it. The case design for mid tower ATX cases hasn't changed much from 1998 to 2016. You had 2 to 3 5.25" bays for optical drives, 3 to 5 3.5" bays for hdds, and a 3.5" bay for a 3.5" fdd. As time went by, 3.5" fdds were no longer used, 5.25" optical drives were replaced with streaming media via the internet, and 3.5" hdds were replaced with 2.5" SSDs and M.2 NVMe SSDs. I had never used a case like this on any computer I put together, it is the first time I used a case design like that. The latest case I bought was back in 2014 which was a Corsair C70, the layout for this case was like any other ATX case. In comparison, the Antec NX410 is wider than a standard ATX case, and it taller. However, in terms of length it is shorter. I think this design in better, because it gets rid of all the unnecessary 5.25" and 3.5" bays which aren't needed anymore. As a result, you can put in much longer graphics cards. It also has a much better cooling system which less cable clutter. The fans this computer use are a newer generation of RGB fans, which allow you to daisy chain fans into a single 4 pin RGB connector; however, your motherboard must have the connectors to use it. These days, people use USB flash drives to install operating systems, so DVDs or other optical media are rarely used for that purpose. Never the less, there are DVD and Blu-ray movies, and I watch those movies on my I7-10700KF based computer or 2ndry computer. This computer will replace my old I7-4790K which I will retire in the future. This is the first computer I put together that has no mechanical hard drives, it is a modern computer with only SSDs. I am satisfied with this case, because it isn't that loud due to using 140mm fans. The bigger the diameter of the fan, the quieter it is and has more air flow. It also looks aesthetically pleasing. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Test System Specs]▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄♦ CPU: Intel I7-13700KF 16 Core Processor♦ GPU: MSI Geforce RTX 3060 12 GB OC♦ RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 (16 GB x 2) 6.5 GHz (6,500 MHz)♦ Storage: • 3 Fanxiang S500 Pro 1 TB M.2 NVMe SSDs • Fanxiang S500 Pro 512 GB M.2 NVMe SSD • Hynix 500 GB SSD sata-3♦ M/B: Asus Prime B760-Plus ATX ♦ O.S.: Windows 11 Home♦ DVR: Elgato HD60X♦ PSU: 650 Watt 80 Plus Gold♦ Cooling System: • 6 Heat Pipes ARGB CPU Air Cooler • Two 140mm intake fans • 120 mm exhaust fan▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Test Software] • War Thunder - High Settings • Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate - High Settings▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Links to Parts]♠ Antec NX410 ATX Mid-Tower Case @ Amazon Affiliate • amzn.to/4c8IN0k♠ 6 Heat Pipes ARGB CPU Air Cooler 4 Pin @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DFPw0Zp♣ TEUCER M.2 NVMe SSD Heat Sink @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dlgzkpt♣ M.2 NVMe SSD NGFF to PCIE X4 Converter Card @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DFVmma7▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█
Orange Pi 4 LTS: Android 12 + Retroarch Tutorial Part (1/2) Ace1000ks1975 2024-06-18 | █▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▀█▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Synopsis]In this video, I review the Orange Pi 4 LTS, and I turn it into a retro gaming machine using different operating systems and programs.This SBC is one generation behind the Orange Pi 5 which is the latest generation for the Orange Pi SBC line. The Orange Pi 4 LTS has the RK3399 processor which is based on the four ARM Cortex A73 cores, and two ARM Cortex A53 cores @, 1.8 GHz, while the Orange Pi 5 has the RK3588S processor. The RK3588S has eight cores four ARM Cortex A76 cores @, 2.4 GHz and four ARM Cortex A55 cores @. 1.8 GHz. The processor and GPU has less performance than a Orange Pi 5, but it is still a capable SBC using the Android O.S..This SBC costs much less than a Orange Pi 5, so I gave it a shot to turn it into a suitable retro video game console. This SBC does has a 16 GB EMMC storage with Android 8 on it. Technically, you can run Retroarch on the EMMC storage device with the OS. However, I found Android 8 to be lacking, it was buggy. This is why I choose Android 12 instead. I had tried Lakka, and it didn't work on the Orange Pi 4 LTS 3 GB model, and there weren't that many options to choose a viable operating system to turn it into a retro video game console. There were a number of problems I had to resolve, like installing a app that would help me shut down and restart the Android OS. This SBC doesn't come with a power on/off button, and you must have a way to shut it down safely, or you can corrupt the OS. I resolved the safe shutdown problem by simply downloading an app. I didn't install Google Store on this device, so I had to get the apps on Retroarch's website, and the shutdown program from the apkpure website. The Android OS has the best driver support for ARM based devices. In this video, I mainly show you my Orange Pi 4 LTS SBC, and the features for it. Then, I show you how to install a suitable operating system, and all the programs to go along to make a functional retro gaming machine. I don't do a lot of testing on this video, but I will on the following videos in the future. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Links to Software]♣ Retroarch • retroarch.com/?page=platforms♣ Android 12 OS (Get the non tablet version) & Official Tools • http://www.orangepi.org/html/hardWare/computerAndMicrocontrollers/service-and-support/Orange-pi-4-LTS.html♣ Shutdown (no Root) by Samiadom • apkpure.com/search?q=android+power+off▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄[Links to Parts]♠ Orange Pi 4 LTS Case @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DBCAXEr♠ Rubber Feet @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DEqh7h9♠ Orange Pi 4 LTS 3 GB @ Amazon Affiliate • amzn.to/3xndM9H♠ 5 V 4 A Power Adapter @ AliExpress • https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlhaaYJ♠ PNY 64GB Elite Class 10 U1 microSDXC Flash Memory Card @ Amazon Affiliate • amzn.to/3RxRJ6V♠ SmartQ C307 USB 3.0 Portable Card Reader @amazonaffiliate942@ Amazon Affiliate • amzn.to/4eutRuT♦ SanDisk 128GB Ultra USB 3.0 Flash Drive • amzn.to/3Xv0pPf▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█▄█
