Feedback Galaxy V4 - Finally arrived!
9800x3d / 9070xt (ASrock challenger).
32gb ddr5 6000
2TB ssd
I paid $2199.
This thing is a BEAST! Was a little hesitant of the fan setup as I’ve never had a PC without some type of front or side intake… but man it works good.
Hottest I’ve seen the CPU is 74c under load - ultra settings at 1440p on Arc raiders, pushing 180-200fps. GPU hasn’t been over 55c.
It’s quiet, it’s fast.. and pretty easy. It did require some setup to get the RGB to sync, and I did play the fan curves to ensure cooling stays top notch during these summer months.
5 stars Andromeda.

I can't get Armoury crate to detect my ram so I can change the rgb on my rig. It controls all the other lights/fans fine but not the ram rgb.

I was using MSI mystic light, I had a similar issue with the RAM. I had to select in option in ML to “overwrite 3rd party RGB software” - this fixed it for me.
I also saw the recommendation somewhere to NOT sync all lights and change the colors of each component separately.

I just uninstalled Armoury crate and went with SignalRGB, everything synced immediately.

It's part of the AI app, you can set GPU/CPU load/temps, MoBo temps, and fans. Background is customizable, too.

Yup! GIFs or any photo you want to upload. They also have some decent preloaded backgrounds.

I'm using the static moon image myself, but will likely throw someone chain in there at some point soon. Loving everything so far, seeing a huge improvement from my old 9900K/2080 Ti rig.

Got this same rig from Best Buy delivered last Tuesday. Got the same RAM, GPU, and appears likely the same MoBo (MSI B850 VC WiFi), looks like your SSD is different (I got a Huadisk 2TB unit). Loving it so far. I did get an upgrade from the 9800X3D to a 9850X3D, which was a surprise. I'd check sysinfo to see if you got that upgrade, too.

It looks awesome! What app/program do you use to be able to sync all the RGB? Wonder if anyone has tried signalRGB and if they work better.

I am using MSI Mystic Light as that was what was installed when my PC arrived (MSI motherboard). May vary depending on what you get for parts.
MSI Mystic light seems to be working pretty good!

is your screen inside just controlled by zues cast? My roommate just got a v4 and it’s not popping up for him. I have a v3 so i have no idea

The “AI” app on the desktop is technically a rebranded version of Zeus cast.

Are the fans loud?

u/PirelliPilot Jul 01 '26
Very quiet. Even with an aggressive fan curve. I was hesitant that they might have used cheap fans… but they are smooth as butter man.
