Tiny PC that should be named Boo

Meganter

Hello everyone !

 

So today a colleague brought me some PC parts that I previously selected with the help of some people ( @Herman Mcpootis @TofuHaroto and @BillNyeThecommieSpy) for her son.

 

So here is the build :

 

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX mATX
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 
Storage: Western Digital Blue 500 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive  
Storage: Seagate Barracuda Compute 4 TB 3.5" 5400RPM (an old drive that I wasn't using anymore)
Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB OC 
Case: Fractal Design Focus G Mini MicroATX   
Power Supply: Cooler Master MWE Bronze V2 550 W 80+ Bronze

Building it was straightforward, it took me about 1h to assemble, 30 minutes to install everything and 30 more minutes to shove it in the case :P. Then I booted it to see if everything was working properly, installed more drivers and did some benchmarks. Do note that it took me about 7 minutes (and I was taking my time) to install the CPU cooler, someone that should not be named (@TofuHaroto  ) took like 2h to do it ? :D 

 

The rams are working at XMP and the CPU is boosting properly to 4.2GHz. I didn't overclocked anything as I'm a big noob and don't really know how to properly overclocked an AMD CPU. It's for a 14 years old kid so the difference will be minimum to him.

 

Here are some pictures of the build in progress :

Cute little motherboard.

Testing if everything works properly before installing it in the case :

Quite the anarchy there

And the completed build :

The cable management was really not fun to do and not very good to be honest.

 

And finally some benchmarks :

For comparison, https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/amd-ryzen-5-3600-review,10.html so I think it did pretty well here ! Average temp was 60°C during it with a peak at 90°C.

For reference https://benchmark.unigine.com/leaderboards/superposition/1.x/1080p-medium/single-gpu/page-1 not great not terrible.

Hey guys I wanted to ask if the Ryzen 3100 is a graphics card? If it is, which way does it go when I install it?

The pics of the mobo are very nicely done.

 

I have an off-topic question for you about Cinebench

What does it stress, only the CPU? The reason I ask is my system, in every way shape and size, is older and inferior to yours, yet I get better Cinebench scores (4002) so I was curious what was happening.

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Yes, it's a cpu stress test, r20 is AVX and r15 does not have AVX iirc.

Ok. I run dual Xeons, but older E5-2643 v2 ones so more cores and threads, but not as new or as fast

Thanks :)

 

And for the other part Haro answered already, I suppose that 1 Xeon would be half of that which make sense still!

That's quite an unusual keyboard. How do you type on it? ;)

Fairly easy m8, quite disgraceful as to how you don't know how to do it 😛

It is but human, to err, to buy a PSU, akin to dirt,

but fret not, young Padawan, for we will tell you, 

what will become, of that, which you have earned
