Starcruiser

Custom-built PC (Gigabyte B360M-HD3 motherboard) | Owned from 2024

My very first custom built PC. Most of the parts I bought in one day off of eBay because I needed it for studies but some of the parts were bought earlier in 2024. Starcruiser serves as my gaming PC, my Windows test box, and as a spiritual successor to Battlestation.

The reason I picked used parts from around 2017~2018 is because that was the period when I had the most interest in commodity hardware so it's what I am most familiar with in terms of performance and what I was most comfortable buying for. At some point, I plan to upgrade the storage as the NVMe is especially tight for a dual boot system.

Starcruiser is my daily driver as of October 2024.
