Of course, after discounting the voracious power-hungry Kari Lake Velociraptor

posting in from the future-- i rebuilt mine with the i9 25000ATG with 1200XTX and i had to upgrade to the minimum 5,000W PSU. But this beast can manage the entire house climate control, solar and wind power systems, as well as run the spare M1A5 drone tank (excess supply on discount due to the Ukraine-Poland-Russian-China war). Only problem is the cyclic radiation from the nuke blooms, but at least my quad monitor setup (couldn't afford the standard 2.5m x 2.5m resolution) is enough for me to spot incoming KS33s and update sightings to the ABM network.
