Gift of Tech: A Custom Build Over the Wheels

Working in PCB store is fun, see lots of customers, experienced their thought is quite amazing. In PCB Store, we basically offer custom and pre-built PCs. So, in the store, we witness many things related to builds. Last month, in the store, we got requested for a custom build. But here is story.

The context is the son is a typical teenager who loves bikes and wants to ride with his fellow homies. After his college graduation, the son wants a higher CC bike from his father as a gift. But the PC-enthusiastic father has a different plan in mind. Father gifts him a top-of-the-line gaming PC instead of a higher CC bike.

So, as it's a gift from a father to his son, we take time and build a PC with the high-end components from our store shelves.

Not only that, but we also published a video about this build in our PCB YouTube channel online, to appropriate this father who decided to not give the bike to this son.

Back to the build:

As their budget was slightly high, we decided to use the best and latest component from our store.

Firstly, choose AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D as a processor, as his top priority is gaming. As Ryzen 9 9950X3D is part of the Zen 5 architecture, it will give perfectly balanced output in the case of gaming and productivity. So, even in his higher study, he can do his additional research and others' work without any problems.

In the GPU section, we give them our latest and high-end GPU card from our shelf, the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5090 Platinum, the fastest gaming GPU right now. Not to say much about it in here, 'cause all know what kind of beast it is in the gaming section. But the most amazing part of this GPU card, which many reviewers skip and do not mention in their video, is their GPU Tweak 3 software. With this software, you can check the temperature of different parts of the GPU. Also, you can overclock the GPU from this software. Also can under-volt and adjust fan speed.

Now, we need a motherboard to fit all the things. As a motherboard customer, choose ROG Crosshair Hero X870. It's a good choice with Ryzen 9 9950X3D and 5090, but here is a catch. We set RAM in the A2 and B2 slots, as we have PCIe lane reductions and give half of its power to this motherboard.

Gaming Performance Test

As it's a gaming-focused build, we test with 2 games, Black Myth: Wukong and Cyberpunk 2077. We test these two games in two gaming configuration environments. In one environment, we focused on rasterisation in native resolutions. And for another test, we enable ray tracing and do a rasterisation test in the cinematic preset, which may be a little bit overclocked.

In Black Myth: Wukong, in 1440p, the card gives us a decent playable framerate, but in 4k, with ray tracing in native resolution, the framerate drops continuously; sometimes we get 30 FPS.

In Cyberpunk 2077, we get decent good framerate in both test in both resolution . In 2025, it's still difficult to use native resolution in Ray-tracing. Also, attaching two image and results of our testing

In here I just share a glimpse of our daily routine. We do lot a stuff and it just a tip of the ice-burg.
