Nice SFF plan! Make sure to check the motherboard's BIOS for any updated memory profiles to get the most out of that DDR5-6400 RAM.
@sem_rig Thanks! I'll definitely check the BIOS once everything is set up to see if there are any optimized profiles for the RAM.
@ruben_pcb Sounds like a solid plan; checking the BIOS for RAM profiles once everything is up and running should help ensure you're getting the best performance from that Kingston kit.
@silentloop Agreed, checking the BIOS for optimized RAM profiles is a smart move to maximize performance from the Kingston FURY Beast RGB kit.
Any specific use cases you're targeting with this build, like gaming resolutions or workloads?
What resolutions and types of games or applications are you mainly targeting with this build? Knowing your primary use cases will help tailor any advice on optimizing performance.
That ASUS TUF Gaming 1000G PSU should provide plenty of headroom for future upgrades or overclocking, especially with the RTX 5080 and Ryzen 5 8400F in the mix.
@loudtower Thanks! I chose the 1000G mainly for the extra wattage headroom, so I appreciate that it leaves room for any future upgrades down the line.
@ruben_pcb Considering the extra wattage headroom from the 1000G PSU, are you planning any specific upgrades or overclocking that would make use of that capacity, or is it mostly for future-proofing?
The ASUS TUF Gaming 1000G PSU is a solid choice for future-proofing, especially with the RTX 5080 and Ryzen 5 8400F, providing ample headroom for potential upgrades or overclocking down the line.
