Little Red AMD Under the Hood

[LukeD]

2017 has been an absolutely crazy year for me personally. One escape I have and enjoy is being creative, both technically and artistically, so what better way to do that than build a PC while I wait for the next Project Orthrus prototype to drop

So here is a little ITX build, and the only thing left is to mod the outer case to include clear windows instead of the normal air vents:



Specs:
AMD Ryzen 1700X
AMD Vega RX 56
TeamGroup DarkPro 16GB RAM running at 3200 MHz
ASrock X370 ITX/ac mainboard
Silverstone SG13 White case
Silverstone ATX -> SFX adapter
Silverstone 600W SFX fully modular PSU
Phanteks fully sleeved cables cut to length
Samsung 950 Pro 256GB M.2
SanDisk Ultra 2 1TB 2,5" SSD
EK CoolStream XE 120 radiator
EK Full Cover Water Block Radeon Vega Nickel
EK 3mm LED RED
5 x EK 90 degree fitting
6 x EK 10/13mm compression fittings
2 x EK 2x45 degree rotatable fitting
EK DuraClear 10/13mm tubing
BeQuiet Coolstream 240 (taken apart and only the CPU block/pump combo was used)
Corsair ML 120 Pro RED LED fan (with black caps)
Koolance QDC (quick disconnect coupling)
Phanteks 5050 12v LED strip (cut to length and resoldered plug to suit Asrock motherboard)

Temps:
Ambient: 23.5 c
Idle CPU: 28.5 c
Idle GPU: 27.0 c

Fan curve:
Single Corsair ML 120 Pro (2400 rpm / 75 cfm / 4.2 mmH20 @ 100%)
50 c / 70%
60 c / 80%
70 c / 90%
80 c / 100%

Benchmarks:
Valley Extreme HD Score: 3028 (fps avg: 72.4 / min: 27.1 / max: 139.3)
Valley Extreme HD CPU temp: 58 c (peak)
Valley Extreme HD GPU temp: 58 c (peak)

3DMark:

FireStrike CPU peak temp: 52 c
FireStrike GPU peak temp: 44 c

FireStrike Extreme Score: 8862
FireStrike Extreme CPU peak temp: 55 c
FireStrike Extreme GPU peak temp: 46 c

FireStrike Ultra Score: 4799
FireStrike Ultra CPU peak temp: 57 c
FireStrike Ultra GPU peak temp: 47 c

TimeSpy Score: 6492

Interesting build , can't wait to see the temps and performance !

That's a great build, with some fine kit shoehorned in there.
I moved my i5 1670K kit into an SG13 recently, and have enjoyed it being a bit small in transit. I'll have to post a pic of my unique carrying harness for taking it to LAN nights.
Keep up the good work with Orthrus, it's an amazing project

Sorry for this harsh year.
Your creation is beautiful...i like your be quiet customized...i guess you spent quite a long time to bleed system...

In terms of thermal, be careful of fluid temperature for your pump lifespan.

What fan did you use in front? I guess somekind of gentle typhoon 2150rpm...it would be my personal choice.. or you used some spare bequiet 120 mm from your aio...

Updated the post now performance aint too bad

..i guess you spent quite a long time to bleed system...

Actually I used an external EK pump ... hence the koolance quick disconnects only took an hour or so to bleed.

What fan did you use in front?

I used the Corsair ML 120 Pro RED LED fan which is 2400 rpm / 75 cfm / 4.2 mmH20

Fan curve is set to:
50 c / 70%
60 c / 80%
70 c / 90%
80 c / 100%

Thanks for feedback...bleeding is still a pain tho, but you have an unique build!

You forgot temps for furmark..

Temperature are ok for components, but as expected, be careful of liquid temperature..

Still doing the 14 core fur mark run. 8 core run has been done
Reason i don't do 16 core fur mark because i find you need at least 2 cores to have the gpu running at 100% load.
And yeah, will keep an eye on those water temps

Sure...after furmark is not gaming... with amd gpu, you can easily monitor power use with msi afterburner..
Any recent game in 1440p vsync off should push power to its top..
Did you extend power limit by 50%..

Ps : i saw your benchmark updates..pretty good temperatures globally..

Very impressive build
