Making machine learning more accurate

“It’s a beast of a card, and looks absolutely stellar in our system. From the angled GPU block to the carbon fiber and black ventilated backplate, it certainly looks the part .”

3 MOTHERBOARD IN

Thankfully, because we’ve already pre-installed the CPU cooler and RAM, installing the motherboard into the chassis is a relatively painless procedure – just make sure you find the stand-offs, which are hidden in a little clear bag along with the case screws, tied to one of the hard drive caddies, first. Fortunately, the ROG Strix X470-F has its backplate pre-attached to the motherboard, so there’s no forgetting that.

4 SHHHH!

Next up on the list is the PSU. In this case, we’re running with a 600W Be Quiet! Pure Power 11. This new PSU from the German company is a semi-modular beauty, coming in at an impressively affordable price point. Only downside? The EPS power is a bit short, and the case isn’t that great with routing, so we’ve had to thread the power cable up and through the CPU socket cut-out. To do this, you have to remove the screws that secure the motherboard, run your cable through the cut-out, plug it in, then resecure the motherboard back down. It’s a bit tight, but will run absolutely fine.

5 SOLID-STATE SNEAKINESS

We’ve also attached our SSD to the back of the motherboard tray, with the included caddy located here. There’s only one as standard, but it’s a fairly painless experience. It may sound obvious, but make sure you use flat-ended SATA cables for your 2.5-inch devices here. Also worth pointing out is that, although you can technically fit a 2.5-inch HDD or hybrid drive, it’s not advisable, because the orientation can lead to additional stress on the drive and more overall noise, due to vibrations against the rear side panel. Instead, use the caddies located in front of the PSU, for 3.5-inch drives.

6 RADEON FOREVER

Last but not least is the centerpiece of our build: the XFX Radeon RX 590. It’s a beast of a card, and looks absolutely stellar in our system. From the angled GPU block to the carbon fiber and black ventilated backplate, it certainly looks the part, and is really clean, too. We also took the opportunity to tie the two PCIe power cables together, before cutting the loose end off; because it’s all black, it should look fairly inconspicuous, and keep everything tidy and together. The last thing to do is plug in the front I/O headers, and we’re good to go.
