That’s basically what I was thinking. Maybe something like an i3 12100 would be a good choice, but that is also almost overkill. I’m personally using an 10100f, and that’s not just fine for web browsing, but also gaming.
The PSU is also overkill I guess, but going with a quality PSU is a great idea nonetheless. But something like a 400W unit may be better suited for this built, since a PSU is going to be less efficient when it’s just getting utilized about 20%. Even 400W may be too much.
What a coincidence. Just yesterday I saw a video about how Mario Galaxy works from a technical perspective, and water was one of the topics.
As it turns out, the water effect was done by manipulating the floor texture with a noise pattern to make it squiggly, and then putting a transparent layer above. It looks pretty good and doesn’t need much processing power.
I just thought that was interesting.
