True that. And with one thing you are right: the Miyoo Mini Plus is absolutely awesome for what it is designed for!

That’s not really an adequate recommendation imo. The Miyoo Mini Plus has subpar battery runtime due to it’s size limitations and it’s LCD screen, compared to actual eInk devices. The screen size and ratio is also not suitable for effective reading, even though it is possible to read eBooks with it.

Finalise my physical network to have at least one available port in every essential room & build a new home server/NAS.
You reminded me of the fact that I already undervolted my GPU so it’s probably a good call to nudge the PSU up a little… 750W it is.
I probably don’t specifically need a 12 core CPU but comparing the prices of the 7900 non-X, 7900X, 7800X3D and the 7950X3D in Germany and considering the fact that for me gaming vs productive work balances at ~10% to 90% it really makes not much sense to consider anything but the 7900 non-X I think. The 7800X3D is well above 500€ again unfortunately and the 7950X3D even above 600…
Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated!
Sure! I use mostly the terminal, my choice being kitty but aside from that rather small workload I do audio editing from time to time, have a browser with a rather large amount of tabs running all the time as well as the usual pile of electron based apps with differing amounts of actual load. If I do play games it’s titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, U-Boat, Euro Truck Simulator 2, Elite Dangerous or smaller/older titles in terms of graphical load. My goal is stable 60fps in WQHD and beyond. I’m not thriving for 144 or even 180fps but don’t mind more than 60 if possible. WQHD is what my two displays provide me right now, in the near future I plan to switch to an ultrawide screen but have not yet decided on the resolution.
Mostly the 4770K CPU that is still doing its job but that shows its age by now. Browsing the modern web™ got quiet annoying, waiting for tabs with js heavy sites to load. Beyond that it’s stuff like the case fans having run down bearings, the case having a rather limited IO shield missing USB 3 ports and the limited amount of “only” 16GB RAM. Sure, I could upgrade these without building a new computer all along but why bother when the CPU is the main issue?
I’d like to keep the budget below or at 1,5k€ max. I mostly struggled with the mainboard as the available AMD chipsets really don’t make much sense imo. I would have settled with X670E as well but the remaining available MBs with that chipset at least in Germany are on the decline apparently? I planned to use the be quiet! Silent Base 802 as my new case but it is too big to justify honestly. The North seems to be not the best in terms of noise isolation but looks nice and provides good air flow according to Gamers Nexus.
Well, turns out that when you host a private service that allows others to share files, they might share files that they are not allowed to share. But in return your door gets kicked in in the morning and suddenly no one wants to take credit for the actual upload anymore.
Didn’t want to spoil the fun 👀

KDE Kast does sync with it as far as I remember. Not the best in terms of UX though.
