I installed a local Jellyfin server pointed to my media, and just connect to 127.0.0.1:8096 in the browser or app. Jellyfin is a crazy good media player.

Know how to piss off a conservative neighbour? Tell them you're renovating your bathroom and making it gender neutral. Wait for their reaction.

Honestly, wait until this rampocalypse ends. This is my last system for some time, because the memory alone was more than the cost of any other part.

It's what I had on hand at the time.

Oh, wait... 3060 died, how? Sometimes it's fixable if you have a flow station.

It was $540. But admittedly, the ram came before the AI apocalypse. So it's probably closer to $700 now. All off ebay, except the case & PSU.

Missed you comment on the performance difference to the steambox. It's bad. The 4650G isn't great. Played deep rock galactic at maybe 45 FPS.

I haven't done benchmarks, but it's about the speed of a GTX 1650, but being AMD it works much better on Bazzite (Linux)

I have about 10 nvme drives of varying sizes from before. The 1TB drive cost me $70 (about $78 after tax) before the shitstorm.

Hey I got a huge system too. Gotta run my Jellyfin off some kind of "server"

Case: Raven RVZ02, CPU Ryzen 7800X3D, GPU RTX 3080

This was about 4 years ago. This is the system I sharpened my teeth on. Had to modify the 3080 to fit with a fan mod.

I build mini PC's for fun. This is my main rig

Nice! How'd you cram your hardware in there? I had so much trouble.

Yeah man, had to cut out about 10x20mm of steel to fit the AIO tank. A minor modification. Good news: You only have to remove the PSU to upgrade NVME, CPU & Memory. I suspect when this AI bubble pops, i'll drop 64GB @4000Mhz, and a Ryzen 5600G in it. wishful thinking...

I discovered Lemmy last week. Lurked for a while, then finally created an account. The experience is much better than Reddit so I say good riddance.
