Where are the Players ... ? Building the Machine !

Post#1 by iVAN » 06 Dec 2016, 13:56

As you mention perhaps before I have it off with Porteus for playing "Video-Games" ..
I am not the man to withheld ... :twisted:
In this month I started to build me up a -Steam Machine- / Compact Gaming PC...
..so have a look at my result:

The Specifications could be:
############
## The Big One ##
############
Case: Cooltek CoolCube (50€)
Mainboard: ITX AMD Mainboard Standard Brand (70€)
CPU & FAN: AMD Athlon FM2 X4 880 Boxed (90€)
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1050 TI 4GB Short Version Standard Brand (160€)
RAM: 16 GB DDR3 1600-2133 MHZ Standard Brand (95€)
Power Supply: Good PSU min 300W ATX Standard Brand (40€)
HDDs: 128GB SSD & 2TB Hybrid SSHD or HDD Standard Brand (45€) & (110€)
STEAM Stickers: 5€
CPU & FAN 130W (+-10%) + GFX 80W (+-10%) + MAINBOARD & HDDs ~50W = ~260W
That would be about 650€ if you like to buy only new parts...

This is a possible AMD Solution in the ITX Formfactor, you could also try to get Radeon Dual Graphics running with the AMD A Processor family ... You see this is not the most inexpensive Solution, but the competition must go on...! Cause this must be the fun ... !

Have and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year once already....

certainly yours..
