Second Home PC

[Mondas42]

My daughter is going to university to study VFX in September and taking her main rig with her (intel i9 9900k, and a RTX 2070j. When she comes home for holidays and the odd weekend she expressed a need for a PC at home as she didn’t want to bring her main rig back and forth. With this I mind I have just built a second Home PC for her and my wife to use. Didn’t want to spend a lot so it’s a relatively modest build.

 

Specs

 

Processor - AMD Ryzen 3 3100

Motherboard - ASUS B450 PrimeM-A 

GPU - ASUS RX 570 Expedition OC 4Gb - see note

16Gb DDR4 3000Mhz

Silicon Power M.2 Nvme 500Gb 

CoolerMaster Master-liquid ML240L v2 AIO

Kolink Void RGB midi tower case

Kolink Modular 500W Gold plus psu

 

The graphics card was a steal, it was second hand on eBay as faulty. The seller was saying it was showing error 43 in the driver section. I knew this prob meant it had been used for mining so took a chance, got it for £27. Re-flashed the BIOS and all was well and fully functional.

 

All in all a nice little PC. 3D Mark for FireStrike is 11,200 so not too shabby.
