We measure system drain at the socket via a calibrated meter – the monitor is not included in the final result. We measure results while gaming in Crysis Warhead and the synthetic stress test Furmark and record both results.

When idle, the system consumes around 60 watts of power. When the 4770k is loaded, this rises to 145 watts. When the final ‘combined' test in 3DMark 11 is triggered, this rises to around 270 watts.

Crimson Desert climbs up to ‘very positive’ score on Steam across over 100k reviews
Crimson Desert was a hotly-anticipated brand new IP prior to its official launch earlier this month, with the ambitious open-world title garnering a ton of attention thanks to its pretty visuals, freeform gameplay and player agency. Upon its launch however, the game suffered from a number of issues, including rather awkward controls. Fortunately, the team at Pearl Abyss have been quick to respond to criticisms – with Crimson Desert having now climbed its way to a ‘Very Positive’ score on Steam.

I think its quite attractive, although the handle at the front puts the whole shape out of sync or something.
They are taking quite a stance with the high end stuff inside, surprised it didnt just turn off under load 🙂
Yeah I love that, but I would want something a little more cost effective as a build, must be about £2k of hardware there in that. If the barebones is around £300, I would say £1k would get a great system. Something like a GTX770 and a 4670 would work for me.
