I assume you realise that you're building a PC with the same components that many other users on this forum have used?

Have you bought yourself an 80+ Titanium rated power supply?

It's OK but it's not the greenest PSU you could have bought.

My comment was tongue in cheek as there aren't any other than server grade units as far as I know.

80+ Silver is quite green so I wouldn't worry about it.

Check out his other threads

They mainly deal with a worrying firearms obsession, and a lack of grip on reality.

You'd be better of worrying about where the electricity is coming from more than a few % efficiency differences.

Thank God I dont have 1Kw psu to worry about. That is just mental. Thanks to my green kick ass system i am using super eco GPU 7850 thus only need about 550 W psu.

I am so good!

I have now officially change the name of my new pc from masterblaster888 to the Green Dragon 888. This is because Green Dragon is associated with riches and prosperity.

There's nothing even slightly 'green' about building a gaming pc! You're using pretty much the same components as most other people are using. There is nothing about your build which sets it apart as less environmentally unfriendly than anyone else's.

This is where you go wrong blue160. I have specifically chosen components that are better and greener than others builds. Even by small margin but nevertheless are so.

To name just one, I have chosen Kingston memory. I could have gone with samsung but they are ones that deal with foxcon men. Kingston on other hand has passed various ISO green credentials samsung dont even know about.

Its this little extra mile that counts. As many will surely know and recognize. God bless

Which particular ISO green credentials are you referring to?

ISO 14001 Kingston got! So they are greener than samsung and foxcon!

I see.

Samsung and Foxconn do know about it and both have it.

Samsung acquisition of ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001

Foxconn SER policy
