Would get a better Idea if you filmed at more of a distance. Regardless,… nice (y)

People don’t naturally look that close when looking at a case.

The room was dark. The case is black. There was nothing to see.

I meant the UV would look better from a distance. I also noticed that the camera made adjustments to the UV lighting, that’s all. I like UV. I was just wondering how it would look from further away 🙏

I still got a 2950x with my x399 platform.
Considering draining last drop of my x399 and install a 2990xw CPU.
I use this PC for content creation, wanted to use more Corona Render for my workflow.
But heck, those AMD 9900x 16 core processors make better score than 2990xw (Coronabenchmark 16 million rays/sec VS 11 million). AMD has gonne a long way perfecting their CPUs.
But dammit, building another PC with DDR5 RAM (128 Gb) + new mobo... gonna be an expensive one...

I still have an X399 with a first-gen TR 1900X CPU somewhere.
It might still work, who knows

Well, upgraded from 1950x to 2950x to have a smoother upgrade to Windows 11, besides being snappier with some 3D applications.
But 1st and 2nd gen TRs are def taking a beat from Amd 5 CPUs gen.
For sake of extending this platform's life... I might grab a second hand 500 USD 2990wx on Ebay.
