  1. I just built a $900 gaming PC which was a huge improvement over my 6 year old Gateway PC. Among other things, I installed the operating system and few games on a solid state drive. I have to say, load times have been reduced DRASTICALLY. From loading modded KSP (B9, KW, Ferram) in 5 minutes on the old system, I managed to get the game up and running in less than a minute! Also, for the first time, I could max out the settings of a game and still have it run smoothly.

    Moral of the story: SSD's have really fast read/write times

  2. Hi everyone. I am planning on building a computer soon but I have no experience. I request help on planning a good build.

    My probable budget will be around $800 but I could go over by just a bit.

    I already have the peripherals needed.

    I don't have a copy of windows but I am planning on running windows 7.

    Games I hope the computer would be capable of handling: DayZ, KSP, League of Legends, Minecraft

    I don't really care about size or the noise it creates as long as it is reasonable. However, I would like a graphics card that is capable of running a multiple monitor setup.

    Thanks in advance :)

  3. Hi guys! If you aren't aware, the first week of AP testing has just been completed. I myself have taken two tests so far with one left to go.

    Who else has taken/is taking an AP test? How were your tests?

  4. Note: I have nothing against KJR. It just causes problems in this update.

    If anybody has Kerbal Joint Reinforcement Installed from before the update, you will need to uninstall it. The reason is that it interferes with the overhauled joints in the update. I learned this the hard way because when I launched my rocket, every single joint disconnected and the rocket fell apart. The problems went away once I uninstalled the mod.

  5. -Manufacturer: Gateway

    -CPU: AMD Phenom 8450 triple core processor @ 2.1Ghz

    -GPU: ATI Radeon HD 3200, 2 Gb

    -Hard Drive: 1 Mechanical hard drive with 500 Gb

    -RAM: Two sticks totaling 4 Gb

    -Cooling: Stock fans

    -Peripherals: Anker high precision gaming mouse- I got it for christmas Nothing special about any of the other peripherals

    This computer is ~6 years old. While it still works fine, it's just doesn't run system intensive games very well (Including KSP!)

    I hope to build my first computer over the summer.
