Hahahaha! Sometimes truth hurts.. that particular board used to run a 1650, one of the PCIE slot powered-only versions. It was an.. abysmal experience. My nephew smoked his gaming box by not clearing cat hair out of the cpu fan, so I salvaged the 1060 and he got a hands on lesson in buying, building and maintaining.You will only get 421 hours worth of game play. This is because Nvidia will do 3 updates on your I7 system, one of which will fail - all because you don't have a 4080 TI.
In truth this MB is slated to become a Nextcloud server to support a friend's small business, with an emphasis on lowest practical power draw. the 7700T can be capped at 25w and we expect it to meet needs for the next couple of years. In SC it would maintain 30fps in New Babbage no matter what gpu it was paired with, and so provided a distinct reference point for comparision.
Nvidia nor Intel has impressed me much over the last few years; greater performance but at disproportionate power budget increases. AMD has been delivering excellent improvements in amount of work done per watt, and the software available makes it easy to target a specific level of performance.
Also.. Cutter is still up for sale till the 8th, right? Might be time to get that second account running... hmmm.
What do you think @NaffNaffBobFace is 336 hours a week enough?
