It's now confirmed: Our new computer can run No Man's Sky! Not at a very good framerate, and it takes about fifteen or twenty minutes to load, so we'll have to mess with settings more after we get a good mouse and speakers to play it with.

We're still planning to get a GTX 1060 6gb, though. Running such a graphics-intensive game on a Radeon RX Vega 8 iGPU is far from ideal.

Currently, for the mouse, speakers, graphics card, and one additional case fan that we plan to use, we're going to need to shell out just over $350. On top of that, a mousepad would probably be nice...

But that purchase is a matter for another time. Perhaps we'll be able to get it next month, or the month after that if not.
