The non OC 6 core Intel chips are adequate for almost all gamers at 1080p with a decent GFX card.

100+ fps


On the 780ti?

You think a build like that can get 144 on fortnite with low settings?

Trying to get as cheap as possible in a mini itx for portable gaming/HTPC

I can run a round of fortnite later and let you know how it runs. I assume it'll run better than PUBG

I actually play with higher anti aliasing though since it matters more in PUBG to have the cleaner views. Sucks though bc that's one of the bigger FPS clunkers

Sometimes I turn on AA because it can be harsh looking in far distances without the smoothing.

BTW, got my Finalmouse in and bought a 60% keyboard for added area since I put my DPI on 400.

Finalmouse is amazing and is extremely light. About the same size as my g pro wireless and don't notice the paracord wire.

The keyboard is the anne pro 2 with gateron browns. I actually like the gaterons more than the cherrys.

How big is your mouse pad that you need that much space? I need a lot of space since I play on 800dpi and low sens, but my mousepad is massive

my mouse pad

That's sick. Do you think that can fit in a backpack?


I still can't decide on a mini itx or just get a 1060 laptop.

Maybe a very big one. It's a good bit bigger than an xbox one probably (don't have one to confirm though)

Lian li PC tu100b is a badass case. Here's my old portable PC. Had a 6700k, gtx 1070, 16gb ram and a 512gb m.2 SSD.

iTX is fun. Even water cooled a build inside a Fractal Node 300. Gaming laptops are mobile, iTX builds are usually just loud but fun. However, I don't game much anymore and the industry turned flat. If you travel for work, get a gaming laptop. Dell's extra series of the 7000s are great. Think I owned 3 last year, purchased around 10-12 gaming laptops and ultrabooks in 2018. I posted them here months back.

If you travel for work. Get you a gaming laptop. If you want to have fun with iTX builds. Build an iTX. But they aren't quiet, just remember.

If you just want to learn then look into SBCs. You can do multiple projects a month which are actually useful outside of gaming. You can do much more versatile projects and just learn. That is the fun part about builds and new projects.

I have things all over. Sometimes forget about them. Solar, mesh networks, trackers, motion detectors. I track the moving objects and index by color. Its weird but its projects.

Below is a simple relay hat for another alarm clock build. This one will be is a simple daylight alarm clock.

My main reason is to have a PC to take to MS when I have to go to my parents for an extended stay.

I don't travel much.
