I finally finished my TV build: I added an RTX 2080 to a MINISFORUM AI X1-255 over OCuLink. I expected it to perform much worse on just 4 PCIe lanes, but it’s doing surprisingly well. I’d say the setup is ready for couch gaming now.
The only downside: the GPU fans spin at 100% when the PC is turned off.
Now I have a beefy 8 core CPU, 64 gigs of ram, 16 of which are allocated to iGPU, and an 8gb gaming card with 20gb of shared memory in one package. Blessed to have gotten most of the hardware before prices spiked.
