Computer Collection: Phobos

About

My second self built PC, which was first assembled in December 2019. It's been upgraded since. Phobos is a bit of a power hog and costs a lot per month to run, adding as much as £12.50 onto the last monthly electricity bill as of writing. Use of Phobos has been somewhat discontinued as I test Apophis.

Trivia

Phobos is named after the moon of the same name, orbiting Mars.
Phobos can consume upwards of 150W when playing games.
When playing YouTube videos, the whole setup can consume 130W. It's scary.
