Hi I'm Tristan, and I love computer gaming, hardware and software. I am a software developer 'by trade', but I am now a content creator. My aim is for Tech Overwrite to become the central source for all things related to PC gaming, hardware & software.
Mistakes Were Made: My New Homelab NAS Plan
Last year I made a series of videos called the 'Media Content Workflow Series' where I upgraded the way that I approach video editing - and storing all my video files. I achieved this by building an NVMe Homelab NAS with a 10Gb networking switch, so that I could do really quick video editing over the network.
However I recently decided to go a different route with things, as I discuss in this video.

RTX 5080 'Real World' Tests: AM4/DDR4 (5900X) & AM5/DDR5 (7600)
Просмотров 39916 часов назад
I recently had my NVIDIA RTX 5080 Founder's Edition delivered, and I wanted to see how my two computers compared in gaming to the big tech reviewer's - who all use AM5/DDR5 based systems with the fastest gaming CPU (the 9800x3d). Can my 12-core AM4 system (Ryzen 5900X) and 6-core AM5 system (Ryzen 7600) deliver decent gaming results at 4K? And do I get similar gaming performance with AM4/DDR4 t...
Culling RAM Until Gaming Is Impossible
Просмотров 202День назад
Many people post screenshots of recent AAA games using up 10-20GB of RAM, before proudly saying that PC gamers need 64 GB of RAM for future proofing reasons. Is that really accurate though? Well... no, it's not. Because that's not how RAM (memory) works. An operating system - and its applications like games and Chrome - will reserve as much RAM as it reasonably can. So Hogwarts Legacy might use...
Wait, 16GB VRAM Isn't Enough Now? Which RTX 50 GPU To Buy?
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.14 дней назад
This quick video explores my thoughts about the upcoming RTX 5090, RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 Ti - and especially those final two cards, because they 'only' have 16 GB of VRAM. While that IS quite a lot, and it's more than my current GPU has (I use the RX 6700XT which comes with 12GB of VRAM), I have been worried to see that the 16GB 4080 Super can't play the latest games at 4K. For example, the 408...
The Only Fans PC Build: 36 Fans, 0 Case
Просмотров 40014 дней назад
So... I had the 'amazing' idea of turning my second PC (a Homelab NAS with a Ryzen 7600 CPU) into a gaming PC, and for some reason I decided to build a case... out of case fans. I've actually had this idea for a while, but when I saw Corsair ML120 fans available for just £2.50 each in the recent sales, I bought a box load of fans (literally) and got to working making a PC build out of 36 case f...
Can Your PSU Cope With NVIDIA's RTX 50 Series?
Просмотров 21 тыс.21 день назад
Phew, so NVIDIA launched the new RTX 50 series of graphics cards at CES 2050 - including the RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti and the RTX 5070. The other GPUs in the series (like the RTX 5060 and maybe RTX 5060 Ti) will come later on in the year. However these cards have a higher power requirements - with the RTX 5090 having a TDP of 575w, much higher than the 450w of the RTX 4090. So can you PS...
USB NVMe Gaming: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
Просмотров 296Месяц назад
If you move between PCs a lot, or if your main PC has run out of disk space, you might be tempted to buy a USB M.2 NVMe drive and install all your games on there. But is storing all your games on an NVMe enclosure a genius plan - or a foolish one? So in this video I test out NVMe enclosure gaming in a range of games: Rocket League, Battlefield 2042, Guardians of the Galaxy, Metro Exodus, Sniper...
Dust-Proofing My Computers... Kind Of
Просмотров 335Месяц назад
After spotting quite a lot of dust inside my newly built Homelab NAS, I decided to overanalyze the situation a LOT - and then go out and buy a bunch of dust filters. So in this video I show off how I "dust proofed" my two computers (my workstation PC and my Homelab NAS). I also give some tips and tricks along the way because dust filters are NOT some magic solution that will prevent any PC clea...

If you don't have enough storage space in your PC but you want to rely on super fast NVMe storage (for gaming or content creation), what should you do? Surely if your motherboard has two NVMe slots (for example) and you have maxed both out, you are out of options - right? Well thankfully not: there are actually seven different ways of getting more NVMe space available to your computer, as I dis...

The Only FPS Counters I Need (Goodbye, MSI Afterburner!)
Просмотров 2,8 тыс.2 месяца назад
There are LOTS of FPS trackers out there, but many people seem to go straight to MSI Afterburner. Which I kind of get because it IS a powerful FPS counter (& it also displays a bunch of other useful stats) - but I'm just not a massive fan of Afterburner, to be honest. As a result, I have tested out loads of different FPS counters - and I think that I have finally found my two favorite ones, whi...
Storing Games On A NAS: Genius Or Foolish?
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.2 месяца назад
After running out of disk space on my PC a bunch of times, I decided to try storing games on my NAS instead. Well, I actually have two NASes: a Synology NAS with mechanical hard drives, and a Homelab NAS with NVMe drives (and 10Gb networking). So I decided to install six games on each of them, and see how they performed. Would Cyberpunk 2077, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Metro Exodus, Rock...
I Destroyed 7 Hard Drives (For Science!)
Просмотров 4502 месяца назад
Over the years I have collected a BUNCH of different storage drives that I no longer need/use: seven hard drives and one SSD. People always say that mechanical hard drives are fragile, but I've always kinda been curious about just HOW fragile they are. Does that make me a bad person? Who knows. What I DO know is that in this video, I perform a range of super scientific tests to see exactly how ...
