YouTube video by Iceberg Tech The Original* Cyberpunk 2077 PC in 2025

I rebuilt the original recommended spec PC for ray traced Cyberpunk 2077, in time for the game's fifth anniversary.

Can't believe you're still focusing on stuff that happened way back in 2025. Get with the times, Mia.

Reminds me of Tucker Carlson being impressed by a Russian supermarket.

Ryzen 9000 was boring - can we fix that?

I've had an interest in photography all my life, and was into 3D rendering in my teens. I always thought I had a grasp on lighting, but the thing that really clicked for me was the one time I was sitting behind a bald man on a bus, watching the world reflected on his head.
People are reflective.

Has the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT survived the recent brutal attacks from *checks notes* AMD?

Can you use a NAS as a Steam game drive? Yes and no…

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech What’s with all the mini PCs? (and 74 other questions answered)

YouTuber 101: Never make videos outside your niche, never make videos complaining about life as a YouTuber, and never - NEVER - do a Q&A.

It's using about half that in games (70-120W), but Ryzens use ~50-65w in the same situations, so it's still hard to justify.

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech My new favourite? | Beelink GTi 15 Ultra

My favourite mini PC has received a 2025 update. Is this year’s version just as good?

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech Have we overlooked the Intel Ultra 9 285K?

Intel’s 285K has flown under the radar for almost a year. Has 2025 been kind to Arrow Lake, or were the naysayers right about it all along?

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech I bought a second hand i9-13900K.

Buying second hand CPUs is always a risk. Buying second hand i9-13900Ks is even more so.

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech Gaming PC vs. Mini PC

Oh, so you think you can build a better value desktop PC than a mini PC, do you? Well, good for you! You probably should!

Sorry, that started out more confrontational than I intended.

I’ve never directly compared Oculink to Thunderbolt 4, until now.
Needless to say, TB4 v2 can’t come soon enough!

Man meets his childhood crush 10 years later; is the magic still there?

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech Cheap 16GB vs. Expensive 8GB Graphics Card

You shouldn't spend £300 on an 8GB graphics card in 2025. Should you spend the same amount on a "weaker" 16GB one?

Uh oh, that means they'll be looking to patent the concept of a "pop-up store". Anyone looking to start their own had better watch out for a cease and desist from Nintendo's lawyers.

At long last, my August review of the Ryzen 7 7700

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech I still hate the RX 6500 XT

I do not forgive AMD for the RX 6500 XT, nor do I forget.

So far this week:
Plan A: started working on a video about budget frame gen, decided the idea needed more work than I had time for, shelved it.
Plan B: Forgot GCN2 cards only output 4K at 30Hz over HDMI. Idea scrapped.
Plan C: None of my 8GB DDR3 sticks work. Postponed.
Fortunately, I have a plan D!

Too late Ken, your brother Kev already broke the news 😊

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech The last RX 580 review ever.

I’m fed up of the RX 580, you’re fed up of the RX 580, let’s do this one last time and then never speak of it again…

YouTube video by Iceberg Tech From decade-old workstation to CONSOLE KILLER

YouTuber rule no. 1: if it can take a graphics card, it must take a graphics card.

The only part that stands out is the storage, it's a bit on the slow & small side and I could see it potentially being full of old proxies and stuff. Look into a decent sized NVME SSD, and a fresh Windows installation. You can always put it into a new PC later if needed.

What temerity you have, thinking you can stand among such towering intellects as Jake Paul! What gall!

One of my favourite places to visit! The rendering distance from the Jungfraujoch was amazing
