I have not tried to game on it. I wouldn’t unless I added a discreet graphics card to pass through. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the way you think! And yeah the 128gb is running at 5200mhz. I set the XMP profile on the bios, bios shows them at that speed and unraid has been rock solid. Just upgraded to 6.12. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

CPU is definitely overkill, but I had cash to burn, and was trying to eliminate add in cards. The UHD770 in the 13900k is a beast at transcoding where necessary. All of my local streams are direct, but I play remote on some mobile devices and have several remote users who refuse to change their settings to not transcode. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I started my journey with unraid some 6 months or so ago. Mostly used pieces I had been gifted through my job. I was just getting into Plex properly, as I’d decided to rip my 1300+ Blu-ray collection to digital. Old build was a ryzen 9 5900x base, with an Nvidia M4000 card. It got the job done, but I got to a point that I was running out of space to expand. Decided to upgrade, kinda went balls to the wall, but I had money to burn and wanted to have something that would last for a while.
