arekgreenman888,

The miniscule current difference between spinning a drive at 5900 and 7200 is so negligible, it's not worth worrying about.

You've probably used more energy than you might save by revisiting this thread to ask incoherent questions about insignificant power savings.
 
Good god! I just read all of this thread.

Arek is a GREEN GOD WALKING AMONG POLLUTING MORTALS!

You sir are the best thing that ever came out of a womans ....
 
:-S there was me thinking he wanted a color scheme that was green......what a waste of effort just turn off the lights and game in the dark, the fact that most IT equipment gets shipped half way round the world kind of makes it a mute point and ofc building it yourself requires additional shipping which wont help so you should really have bought a prebuilt as the shipping from OCuk to you for all the bits will account for more CO2 than anything you could hope to save from an energy efficient drive. ****ing hippies!!!
 
Buying that drive over another will make no difference to the environment and is no less green or ethical.

You are amazing, but my god do you come across as being incredibly dim.

Post will go anyway. Few extra parcels wont make a difference. My system is as I have stated before, I state again - more 'green' than others. This is due using many components from more ethical companies than others.

If you look closely you will see that I am right.

haha what a load of crap.

You keep telling yourself you are right, you may even begin to believe it.
 
The thread that won't die!!!!

Gaming pc's aren't green, especially overclocked ones. They're the SUV's of the computing world. They use rare materials dug up in some of the most hellish places in the world, the components are put together in sweat shops in the Far East where the workers recieve extremely low pay and conditions, then they are shipped half way round the world on enormously polluting cargo ships. After you've assembled the components the PC draws a large amount of power mainly generated from fossil fuels, then when you overclock it, it uses considerably more. What's more it'll be obsolete in a few years and all the parts will end up in landfill.

Your 'Green Dragon' may or may not be more green than my rig, but I am not deluding myself that building a gaming PC is an ecologically sound thing to do. I have one because I want one and can afford one and choose to accept the environmental impact.

Choosing components the way you have is like buying a Porsche Cayenne rather than a Range Rover because Porsche have a bit on their website that says how much they like trees (I don't know if they do!). If you really cared you'd have a VW Polo Bluemotion, or to extend the analogy back to computer games, an Xbox.

How can you go off roding in Polo bluemotion?

But you can put better components on range rover that will make it more 'eco' than others giving better millage and gas emissions. Also use components from makers that have better environmental policies.

This is the noble and great thing that am doing. Simply because I am so good.

Both and Xbox or PS3 would be far greener than your machine...
 
Why is this thread still alive? I just... why..? xD
I posted here aaaaaaages ago, people established that he was trolling even back then, and yet there are still new posts all the time? :p
Just spray everything bright green. Sorted.
