Ender 5 Pro with a few upgrades. 3DTouch sensor was the first upgrade I bought. Currently running a Hero Me Gen 7 toolhead with dual 5015 blower fans and a 4020 hotend cooling fan that I'm running at a lower voltage to reduce noise. Got an Orbiter 2.0 extruder mounted in direct drive which I love, great little extruder. V6 Clone All-Metal Hotend with a standard 0.4mm nozzle for now, but looking to get a CHT soon. I also recently got a spring steel textured PEI build plate, massive improvement over the stock floppy surface, I should have upgraded sooner. In my quest for less noisy printing, I've replaced the PSU and mainboard fans with two 120mm PC fans, works great so far.
The motion system is really the bottleneck now, it seems the limit is around 150mm/s with 1250mm/s^2 acceleration which is lower than Ender 5 Pro's I've seen on the internet, any higher than that and I get layer shifts. I'm looking to do the ZeroG Mercury conversion in the future.
