Thank you. No complaints about them from me. I'm no audiophile but I'd say they're pretty well-balanced, so bassheads probably won't like them but they work great for me. I've also had the Logitech G560 and the Bose Companion 2. The Edifiers sound more rich than the Logitech and cleaner than the Bose.


migrated to a fractal define 7 compact
was easy to build in, i know some reviews claim the opposite but i had no issues despite a fat 24 pin power cable, 7 fans including one in the floor and 2 pwm hubs behind the motherboard tray
the only other thing that is new is the fractal celsius s36 water cooler

Solarmass Technically it's alright, it is about the laptop setup....I just couldn't find interesting to make a photo of my desk. And its CHAOS. πŸ˜†

      another year another build. hugely successful this time
      fractal torrent compact + 5600X + Noctua NH-U12A chromax.black = maxing at 55C both during gaming and stress tests, it stays insanely cool even with the huuge front fans only running at 400 rpm, whisper quiet even under full load. 6800XT maxes out at around 60C
      i was reluctant to put the 5900X in this as i wasnt sure how well the air cooler would work (been using liquid cooling for years, forgotten what to expect from air coolers) but im pretty sure this smallish noctua beast could keep it under 70C

      the air flow in this thing is insane. im thinking i should remove the rear exhaust fan as it feels like a hindrance, i can easily feel with my hands that theres more air coming out of the back of the case in the places where theres no fan
      chipset and nvme temps also down approx 10C compared to previous build
      cable management a pain in the rear though, very little space behind the motherboard tray

      Your workspace looks very attractive. Your desk is quite roomy as you were able to arrange your laptop and monitor. I especially like that there is a special place for cups. I drink a lot of tea when I work, so a place for cups would be helpful. I recently bought a new desk for work, eurekaergonomic.com it is a very comfortable desk with unique features. What makes me happy is that the desk has wireless charging built into it, so I can charge my phone just by putting it on the desk.

      finally, mini itx, what i always wanted
      7800X3D, 6800XT
      ssupd meshroom s (case), tiny thing, crowded, not the easiest build. would recommend doing a 'dummy' build first to learn the best way of doing things
      slim fan in the roof

      I went with a laptop for gaming because, you know, life's all about flexibility. I love that I can dive into my favorite games wherever the day takes me, no need for a fixed gaming spot. These laptops nowadays pack serious power, so I don't have to worry about lag or missing out on the latest releases. Plus, it's just super handy to have one device that can handle both work and play without any fuss. It's like my gaming sidekick, always ready for action wherever I am. Also I found this blog about how you can build a laptop gaming setup which can match desktop level performance. Found it super helpful, hope it's useful here.
