To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hey everyone,
I justed wanted to post my super sleek, power-efficient, high end, cheap gaming rig:
Specs:
AMD A10 6800K
16GB RAM from Kingston (clock and CAs are lousy, gonna replace that next month with some proper RAM memory).
WD 1TB SATA600 7200RPM
ASRock FM2A85X-ITX
PSU Bequiet 300W (overkill, but its there in case I had a dedicated GFX card).
Properly runs:
- EVE Online 4 clients at the same time.
- Distant Worlds Shadows with max size universe.
- Planetary Annihilation Alpha.
- Supreme commander forged alliance (even 12 player multi matches on FA forever).
- C&C Zero Hour
- Shores of hazeron.
- SotS II
Total purchase price (incl. eco friendly case):
- €350,-
Any comments?
Nice case. :biggrin:
(incl. eco friendly case):
Are you sure that snazzy case is recycled cardboard?
It is at least bio degradable, compared to the normal stuff only degradable by oxidization or C4.
Any comments?
This isn't the first time I have seen interesting uses for cardboard. :girlcrazy:
Didn't know they made 300W PSU any more, I thought the PC building world needed on average a 450 with todays gfx cards sucking up most of it. Hoping to build a PC for Xmas for myself, we'll see Dad seems to always come last at that time of the year.
A 120W picoPSU can power this thing easily if you use a SSD with it. If I would run my PC 10/7/365, my electricity bill would end up at 78€. If I'd do it 24/7/365 it'd end up at €188. My previous desktop consumed €393 on the electricity bill at 10/7/365. This means that effectively by saving this much on my electricity bill, I can buy every year a new one. And it's performance is better than my old i5 desktop 🙂
