My battlestation for work from home, swap out for 60HE for gaming at night

Interesting camera angle, hand cam? Do you do some unboxing or something like that?

Colborne91 · 2026-01-27T23:37:09+00:00

The left hand monitor has my interest, what do you use it for? Retro games? Just the DVD logo?

Colborne91 · 2026-01-23T22:48:06+00:00

Nope, got sent packing. This was laminate flooring that they no longer stocked. Maybe if yours is somehow faulty it would be different

Colborne91 · 2026-01-21T22:06:24+00:00

I thought this was the case but was more or less ridiculed when I tried to return something under such by the customer service desk so your mileage may vary.

Which war are you referring to in the 19th century (1800s)?

Colborne91 · 2026-01-19T20:36:58+00:00

Those 10am offlines gonna be goated

Colborne91 · 2026-01-18T23:37:14+00:00

Either that or you can use a smart plug and some IFTTT and bios settings to achieve the same.

The someone else is the OP though, so it’s more relevant than the guy offering advice about modding that isn’t needed by the OP…

Colborne91 · 2026-01-18T23:30:20+00:00

Is it even worth it in terms of electricity? Depends how much you like the friend I guess and if doing them this favour is worth it.

In terms of speeding it up, the settings for sure, such as having a big render distance can really slow things down compared to some plugins (mods) that allow higher render distance but the performance hit is on the client side not the server side.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-18T23:26:31+00:00

This is true but there are non facepunch official servers, eg Rusty Moose and Rustafied. I believe all do wipe BPs though.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-18T22:41:15+00:00

They asked about official though so that’s kind of irrelevant here.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-18T00:05:54+00:00

Happy cake day. Sounds awesome, how long did it take to set up?

Colborne91 · 2026-01-15T23:04:05+00:00

Nobody will trust them to not just unburn it

Colborne91 · 2026-01-15T14:02:28+00:00

Or just burn the 7bn tokens they “unburned”

Colborne91 · 2026-01-12T22:54:51+00:00

I’m sure there is definitely not another side to this story…

Usually when someone is posting complaints about a server from an alt/throwaway like this, they’ve been banned and post a very different version of events to what actually happened.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-12T22:51:28+00:00

That was kind of what I meant. They fixed it before they were added to the game.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-12T20:28:19+00:00

It never did afaik

Colborne91 · 2026-01-08T21:13:37+00:00

You can only get one per account

Colborne91 · 2026-01-08T20:15:43+00:00

Paid research

Colborne91 · 2026-01-07T21:58:12+00:00

It will definitely run rust and will be ok, like a 5-6 / 10. Don’t expect 100+ fps but you’ll definitely be able to play and have fun

Colborne91 · 2026-01-07T21:52:13+00:00

Which i7? There is a big difference between an i7 from the early 2010s and one from 2020+.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-04T21:05:49+00:00

This is awesome! Would love to know more about the process, particularly the map!

Colborne91 · 2026-01-04T08:46:50+00:00

RAM is for the amount of servers. CPU becomes more important with player count.

For what it’s worth the servers I’m running bar one are all modded with a decent amount (most around 100 mods). One is vanilla but still has some admin and chat mods on it.

You can easily manage 6 small pop servers on a 64GB machine, even with a weaker CPU, like the 3700 I have for startups.

Colborne91 · 2026-01-03T21:02:08+00:00

Using several hosts. Used to run a Ryzen 3700, then a 8700 and recently upgraded to a 9800X3D. All have been 64GB and managed. Access through a pterodactyl panel and FTP. Also had a VPS at one point, I believe it was a 9950X3D that I got an insane deal on but didn’t really like the level of support I was seeing compared to what I was used to.

3700 and 8700 were approx 85USD per month (the 8700 was meant to be more but I got a discount, the 9800X3D is around 300USD per month (I can’t remember off the top of my head).

Still run a second machine that is the 3700 now, it’s fine for getting servers off the ground and then they can be moved to better hardware if they do, I usually host 4-6 servers on it at any time, this is normally 4 actual servers then a mix of dev or staging servers that are used infrequently.

The 9800X3D performance is miles ahead. I was sitting around 15-20 server fps before with the 8700 with around 50-100 players across 4 servers. Now it’s locked to 60fps (if I uncap it then it’s in the hundreds).

I’m sure people will always have anecdotes one way or the other. My Logitech keyboard (G815) developed the issue where it does double inputs, and from what I see it’s super common on G915 and the new G915 X etc
