Wish me luck. I’m a little unsure if it’ll work well. I have an ancient GPU (Nvidia GTX 970) and hope it’ll be compatable.
Processor AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core (12 CPUs) Processor 3.20 GHz
Installed RAM 32.0 GB
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4 GB) (actually 3.5GB due to hardware defect)
BaseBoard Manufacturer ASRock
BaseBoard Product AB350 Pro4
This system is getting old; nearly a decade here. Pretty soon I have to start thinking about upgrading. At a minimum, I should try and upgrade the video card when I can.
Fuck this case is dusty as hell… I’m never building a full tower again I think. I want my next PC to fit into a Mini-ITX form factor I think.
I tried going a live boot but that wasn’t happening.
So I opened up the system to take out the windows nvme so I could install a test deployment on my spare ssd in the case.
Yeah I did mini-itx, its a pain in the ass to clean but its nice being able to pick it up easily. If you want to be able to clean it easier I think m-atx is the way to go. There are some affordable all metal cases which imo are the way to go so you dont have to buy more cases ever, coolermaster makes the best ones (nr200p gang). Never buy a glass sided one
