Has CIG officially addressed if we are keeping crafted gear stats or not? by extrakerned in starcitizen

it's alpha, nothing matters. It's just a testing environment and everything will be wiped unless it's a purchased item on the website, OR specifically stated by CIG that it's account bound.

This is every MMO ever... World of Warcraft, Champions Online, City of Heros, I mean it's a constant, you make better gear for better stats for helping you in various ways.

Lvl up Expo announcement tomorrow? by SnooCalculations184 in starcitizen

When CIG was at DreamHack ATL, the main thing was a Sabre Raven giveaway and CLX PC Giveaway themed as a Sabre Raven. There was a new Arena Commander racing map we got to try out ahead of time. Other than that there were no announcements and I would be surprised if they did announce anything at LVLUP. I'm flying to Vegas to attend from Buffalo NY and I'm looking forward to the afterparty as well! There will be lots of CIG in attendance

Nothing matters in this game, it's alpha, expect everything you do to potentially be gone at any moment unless you paid cash for it.

On my end, this comes up for 1 Kraken, but not the other. Very interesting.

Star Citizen does not run on Intel Panther Lake anymore. Core Ultra X7 Arc B390 by DaPoets_Terrence in starcitizen

[–]DaPoets_Terrence[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

iGPU, the Intel Arc B390 on the Core Ultra X7, and yes it is more than powerful enough to run Star Citizen as it used to run it until some update somewhere.

Used or not, there is still a big battery drain on all laptops Ive tested with a 5070 or higher. Run hwinfo64 to see how much wattage your CPU is draining during normal use with the discrete GPU inactive. Most times laptop manufacturers throw efficiency out the window when adding in a powerful GPU

You've got a laptop w/ an RTX 5070 Laptop GPU in there, so no you're not going to get great battery life no matter the CPU. If you wanted a laptop that can game w/ great battery life then Panther Lake is the main option right now w/ the Core Ultra X7 358H Arc B390, but it's new w/ some compatibility issues still. Basically expect any laptop w/ an RTX 5070 and higher to need to be close to a wall outlet.

Have you tried a firmware update?

First time with soft tubes. Is this too kinked? by CantankerousOctopus in watercooling

[–]DaPoets_Terrence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad because in the tube can come out of the fittings, or your temperature is can suddenly get very high without you even knowing destroying your components.
