    That would be my recommendation if you cant find Enthoo Pro 2, because that one would have a better airflow. But yeah, your hardware requires pretty much no upgrade, just choke more HDD and maybe an SSD to host the NAS and to setup Arc caching.

    The main thing that matters with cases here is lots of HDD mounts.
     
    I'd recommend getting several smaller drives instead of 2 large ones if your data is important to you cause that allows you to run more practical raid strategies. I mean if your running them in raid 1, imagine having to move 18TB of information to a new drive when 1 of them breaks. There is a good chance the second drive breaks during the transfer and you lose everything.

    Another thing: once you have more than 2 drives your networking will be a bottleneck. I recommend setting up 2.5Gb between you NAS and the devices you want to access it from if your going to be moving data frequently.

    if your looking for to build a nas try TrueNAS as an os (for gpu it doesn't need to be powerful at all

    Nope, AF models are Zen+.

    I would recommend going with a less expensive motherboard and upgrading to 16 gigs of Ram, the 1600x is still a very capable cpu. If it’s possible to return the mobo do it, or just get a cheaper am4 board that supports 1st gen. Don’t worry about it either, I’ve made this mistake too thinking that I could just buy any am4 board and it would support the chip without looking at the compatibility list, ended up returning the mobo for a supported one.

    Some first gen Zen+ CPUs are on the support list, but the 1600x is not.

    I don't think x570 supports ryzen 1st gen.

    Board doesn’t support 1st gen ryzen chips. I’ve made this mistake before too.

    LelouchviZero reacted to ARikozuM in How much FPS will I loose adding a second monitor?   
    No. The 2nd monitor barely takes a few Mhz to power from the GPU.
     
    It's one reason why a 730 can still power three monitors for general use.

    LelouchviZero reacted to Slick in LMG has become bias   
    I actually don't understand feedback these days.
     
    I swear people don't watch the video - Or if they do they just skip to graphs and ignore everything I say. 
     
    "But this isn't the whole story and.. AMD fans.. before you head down into the comments and start screaming at me for being KIND OF a shill at this point.. we must recognize that the 1060 is 25 to 50% more expensive than the RX480 and that's where the conversation changes.. In the dollars per frame race the RX 480 wins EVERY SINGLE TIME."
     
    Then I just talk about how both the price and performance deltas are significantly different 
     
    I didn't say the 480 was bad
     
    1) " he said the 1060 walked all over the rx 480. The highest difference was 10 frames in a dx11 game. "
     
    I did.. That's because 10FPS is "walking all over something"
     
    2) " When he went to give amd credit for something, his voice lowered a bit, and seemed hesitant. "
     
    You're hearing things you want to hear. Sure there was a tonality change, I was changing what I was talking about. Became hesitant? Come on dude.. I scripted my own video. I decided to put this in.. That's not hesitation. 
     
    3) Where's Vulkan (which is supported by Valve) or DX12, where the rx480 beats out the 1060?
     
    Vulkan came out like 2 days before the video was released. Due to editing scheduels and stuff our turn around time isn't that fast. Not only was I not even in the same country as our office when Vulkan was released but I didn't have time to completely re-do the video
     
    DX12 is a broken mess that is having support pulled from multiple games due to glitches and bugs. 
     
    I have a video that I'm working on overiewing both of these cool but not ready technologies 
     
    4)  Next up is how scarcely I see Linus criticize nVidia products anymore.  It seems strange.
     
    He doesn't review GPUs anymore.. Maybe that's it?
     
    5)  Nest up is things that I've heard about involving nVidia and reviewers. Here's what I've pieced together: If a reviewer talks bad or puts a review criticizing nVidia, they don't get samples from nVidia anymore, and are discouraged. If a person leaves a good review though for nVidia, and make competitors look worse, they get more free stuff. Seeing as if we go with the talking I've heard that is industry standard for nVidia , and that Linus still receives items from nVidia, it is possible to conclude that he is creating a form of bias content.
     
    Where's our resident conspiracy theorist? We could use him here.
     
    We have a company of 13 people and a few contractors outside of that. You think 1 free GPU is worth risking our fanbase over? That is insanity and baseless. What might make an OUNCE of sense logically is if we were getting payouts but that is ALSO not happening. We are very transparent about what we're paid for. AMD has given us a lot more money for content than Nvidia has. Simple facts.
     
    6)  I've also seen a bunch of nVidia fanboys lurk around the comments section, copy pasting stuff from a site as a reply. LTT is becoming an nVidia fanboy magnet from this. I'm pretty sure nVidia fans don't like people that talk about amd beating  nVidia in dx12 or Vulkan. This could also draw the conclusion that LTT is biased as well.
     
    So because our fans like nvidia we must like nvidia as well?
    We don't mind disagreeing with our fans. Hell Youtube seems to be thriving off of drama and controversy lately.. maybe we should do more of it.
     
    7)  My last and final piece of evidence is the channel's subscriber count. If LTT had 10k or 100k subs, nVidia wouldn't care as much about the channel. But LTT is one of the biggest channels out their, nearly at 3 million subscribers. If they criticize nVidia, nVidia would take quite the hit. In order to keep this from happening, nVidia most likely pays and gives free stuff to LTT to keep nVidia afloat.
     
    This is evidence? What? Your EVIDENCE is LITERALLY just our subscriber count? Nvidia doesn't pay us for reviews in any form.
     
    One of my more successful videos lately literally had a whole section in it where I went after them for mistreating their enthusiast audience. 
     
     
    I'm open to criticism.. Especially when it's constructive. I'd be more than happy to address legitimate claims with legitimate evidence. This is not that. People want to be mad right now, AMD and the RX480 are the current flavor of the month and with good reason.. It's a wonderful card at a VERY appealing price point.. especially for how it performs. Be happy with your new card, if you bought one - then proceed to move on. There is no conflict here, you're just creating one.
