Swap the red LEDs for blue, should tie the whole room together.
The wall plate is a great idea if you don’t mind cutting holes in the wall.
Honestly, I’d grab a couple of acoustic tiles to put on either side of the TV and chuck all that shit behind them. Maybe cinch up and ziptie anything I know doesn’t need to move for a while.
The scarousal is powerful with this one.
Coincidence or did you get that email from eBay today, too?
They probably got hacked and we’ll find out about it next year.
Add a smaller boot drive to run the OS and programs from, for sure. Maybe 2 if he wants to dual boot Windows and Linux(Steam OS full release is on the horizon).
If you can snag a 5090 in 2-3 days when they release, you’ll definitely be future-proofing yourself a bit more. There’s a liquid cooled version of the 5090 by Gigabyte that’s sure to be one of the best performing aftermarket variants.
I’d also swap the motherboard with the Asrock Taichi X870E, which is the best featured X870E board IMO. I’ve also had loads of issues with Asus products. Otherwise, it looks pretty maxed out. You win all the brownie points!
I’ve had pixels since the Nexus 5 and I used to have some sort of Caseology or speck case on them, but in my opinion nothing tops the Spigen rugged armor case for pixels.
I’ve also tried Crave and Otterbox variants; but the rugged armor is my go to for a no frills, extra grippy, pretty thin case. It’s currently 15 USD if you have prime.
Schenker is German and has some ridiculously specc’d laptops. But be ready to pay through the nose.
Like, I’m talking 200Hz 16:10 4k+ screens with 5090s and up to 256 GB of RAM.
