Saga of Ryzom... free to play up to level 125 ... will take a while... the are 63 skill trees that go to 250.... been playing since 2004... tho i tend to take "lotta vacations".

I would suggest using the native client instead of Steam client as the latter has had performance issues for many

Native client is here;

http://ryzom.com/

I'm currently on one of those vacations ... contact "Azad' in game if ya need some guidance. Tell him "that guy from NY sent ya.' :0

Recommendation: thats way way overkill on the PSU ... savings by going smaller might be a discounted game or 2 on Steam

This is Guru3D's generic power supply recommendation for the series:

AMD Radeon RX 460 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 350 Watt power supply unit as minimum.

If you are going to overclock GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with some more stamina.

Yes, I know it's overkill. However, it was on sale for $50! When a $90 + $5.99 = $95.99 power supply goes on sale for $50 and free shipping, its hard to pass up. It costs around $50 for a decent 350-420 watt PSU. This is a tier 2, top shelf, EVGA B2.

Yes, I use the B2 a lot (9.0 jonnyguru rating) ... especially when it's $45 on NVIX ... now at $76, it's a lot less attractive. I'd save 420 and get the Seasonic S12 520.

Seasonic S12 $50
