While I haven't used a new Ryzen 5000 CPU in this particular build (the Series X is, after all, based on AMD's Zen 2 CPU architecture from their Ryzen 3000 CPUs, not their newer Zen 3 architecture for their Ryzen 5000 series), the Zen 3-compatible B550 chipset gives you a lot more flexibility for future upgrades, and I also wanted a board that had built-in Wi-Fi 6 support, too, so I didn't have to run a LAN cable to it, In this respect, MSI's MPG B550I Gaming Edge Wi-Fi was a great fit. You’re right in that this stuff does seem to be something different compared to thermal paste and thermal pads, and it’s not easily available.

I've tried to match the Series X's spec as closely as possible, but even I'm willing to admit that it's far from perfect and there are plenty of substitutions I would make if I had more components to hand.

In my Xbox Series X review last week, I said Microsoft's new diddy 4K powerhouse console was probably the best and cheapest way of bringing a PC-like gaming experience into your living room as a second machine. We all love games, and in this digital age it seems like we just can't enough of downloading titles to our console. There's a neat LED light strip to indicate the battery percentage, which not only looks cool but is actually useful, too.Similarly, I probably would have chosen AMD's cheaper Radeon RX 6800 instead of the more expensive Radeon RX 6800 XT, but I don't currently have one in for testing. Thermal design is a big part of any console creation, and it's clear the Series X is built to run cool and quiet. While the Xbox Series X is certainly a lot more convenient than the full-sized tower PC plonked next to my TV, was it possible to build a similarly tiddly PC that could rival the Series X's 4K gaming chops? There are also considerably cheaper mini-ITX cases available if you wanted to try building your own tiddly Xbox rival, but as I was going for the most Series X-like design I could find, there was really only one choice: NZXT's H1.
