#tiny the computer

WOOOOOAH...7m to get into Sims 3.

From Clicking on the icon to ready-to-play... SSD is the way to go...

Above picture is on Ultra-settings on an APU - no dedicated graphics card in this machine (at least not yet

I had to install Shimrod’s and Brntwaffles’ camera mods to stop overshooting my sim targets when I go to pan to get a screenshot.  The panning is buttery smooth. 

It’s hard to figure out how they were able to get 16GB DDR4 into this machine...and how to make this small package so gosh-durn powerful.  1TB SSD is allowing me to be able to access my cc quickly and CAS is no longer a royal pain-in-the-ass.

Did I mention that I love Tiny.  She’s absolutely adorably cute.  And she works efficiently.  Other than keeping my cats off Tiny...life has been a blast with this computer.

Setting up Tiny…right now. Found out VGA cable doesn’t work, found a HDMI.

…and we’re up…I have to locate my external hard drive in this room. 🥺

Update: Sims 3 is all setup… but my external HDD died. I may have to rebuild all my CC again. 😳 so there might be some delay in the stories.

Now I’m a little over 2/5ths of the way done reinstalling SWTOR.

Now.

…at least it’s getting there. Maybe it’ll be done by 6 tomorrow morning. 🤣

Meet Tiny our newest member of our digital family. And she is TINY.

She’s a Dell Optiplex 3050 i5 6500T 2.5 GHz -3.1 GHz with turboboost. So she’ll be able to play Sims 3 and SWTOR. She is a stop-gap system till I make my gaming system. But it’s impossible not to fall in love with how cutely tiny she is. It’s a desktop computer you can move easily. 🤣.

To give you an idea of just how tiny she is…. Well here’s my hand and that’s her, right under it. 🤣 Adorbs right?

Well she’s got 16 GBs of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB SSD under the hood. 😁 so for that little frame, she’s got a lot of punching power. 😁

Now, I’ll be setting her up tonight and downloading SWTOR then Sims 3. I’ll also be setting up Photoshop and Premiere Elements. Then linking up my USB external drive. Gotta pick up a powerbar tonight too.
