小米fortnite_我如何仅用1,001美元（与我12岁的孩子）构建自己的Fortnite DIY游戏平台

小米fortnite

So, my 12-year old decided that she needed a more powerful computer for her favorite video game, Fortnite. And I promised her, years ago, that we’d find a time to custom-build her own computer.

因此，我12岁的她决定为自己喜欢的视频游戏Fortnite需要一台功能更强大的计算机。几年前，我向她保证，我们会花时间定制自己的计算机。

Finally, I’ve been able to make good on my word!

最后，我能够兑现我的诺言！

I wanted my daughter to lead the process end-to-end, so she was responsible for not only finding the right parts but also price-comparing them and making her ultimate “purchase list” so that we could talk through it.

我希望我的女儿从头到尾地领导该过程，因此她不仅负责寻找合适的零件，还负责对它们进行价格比较，并制定最终的“购买清单”，以便我们进行讨论。

We discussed the pros and cons of larger motherboards to allow for larger expansion opportunities and power consumption requirements for smaller (or more powerful) components, like the CPU or GPU.

我们讨论了大型主板的优缺点，以便为较小(或更强大)的组件(例如CPU或GPU)提供更大的扩展机会和功耗要求。

A little bit of math was required to ensure that we got the right PSU (Power Supply Unit) to handle her components, but it wasn’t that hard to put the master list together. What was the most fun was talking through each part and the reasons for it and why, as well as trying to maximize expected experience (such as — the end result) and the budget that I had outlined for her.

需要一点数学运算来确保我们拥有正确的PSU(电源设备)来处理她的组件，但是将主列表放在一起并不难。最有趣的是讨论每个部分及其原因，原因，并尝试最大限度地提高预期的经验(例如最终结果)和我为她概述的预算。

我们的目标和预算 (Our Goal and Budget)

What we wanted to do was build an “epic gaming rig” specifically for Fortnite that would be able to handle near-maximum graphic settings @ 60FPS for less than $1,000. We ended up spending a bit more on peripherals like a gaming mouse and keyboard as well as headset and a nice 24" widescreen monitor. But the core computer (mid-tower) we wanted to keep below $1,000 if we could.

我们要做的是为Fortnite建造一个“史诗般的游戏平台”，它能够以低于1000美元的价格在60FPS的速度下处理接近最大的图形设置。我们最终花了更多的钱在外围设备上，例如游戏鼠标和键盘，耳机和漂亮的24英寸宽屏显示器。但是，如果可能的话，我们希望将核心计算机(中塔)的价格控制在1000美元以下。

Here’s the master list of core components that we purchased…

这是我们购买的核心组件的主列表...

Most builds suggest getting a HDD, like a 1TB 7200RPM but we opted to maximize boot and load times with the SSD first. She may end up getting a more typical HDD sooner rather than later as she wants to start capturing her gameplay and even live-streaming as well.

大多数构建建议使用HDD，例如1TB 7200RPM，但我们选择首先使用SSD来最大化启动和加载时间。由于她想开始捕捉自己的游戏玩法，甚至还可以进行实时流媒体播放，因此她可能会早晚获得一个更典型的HDD。

The total cost of these 8 components ended up being $1,001!

这8个组件的总成本为$ 1,001 ！

Of course, she also needed some sweet peripherals which added to the total cost of ownership:

当然，她还需要一些不错的外围设备，这会增加总拥有成本：

Keyboard: CORSAIR Strafe Mechanical Gaming Keyboard — Red LED Backlit — USB Passthrough — Linear and Quiet — Cherry MX Red Switch

游戏椅： Homall游戏椅赛车风格的高背PU皮革办公椅电脑桌椅执行和人体工学风格的带头枕和腰部支撑的旋转椅(白色)—我们最终归还了它，因为它不适合我们当前的设置……她将不得不找出另一个座位系统。

Oh, and finally, we purchased these three important things that we would definitely need:

哦，最后，我们购买了我们绝对需要的以下三项重要内容：

Anti Static Wrist Straps — 3 Pack — Reusable Anti-Static Wrist Straps equipped with Grounding Wire and Alligator Clip — Enables you to Ground Yourself while working on Sensitive Electronics
防静电腕带 -3件装-可重复使用的防静电腕带，配有接地线和鳄鱼夹-使您能够在进行敏感电子工作时接地

You’ll obviously also need some screwdrivers and a bunch of other small-ish tools that most folks already have.

显然，您还将需要大多数人已经拥有的一些螺丝起子和一堆其他小工具。

Now, it was time to build:

现在是时候构建：

The entire process took about 6 hours, from start to finish, which surprised me. I had planned to take most (if not all) of the morning to put it together. And, there were definitely a few moments where I thought we were either missing a component or I had thought that we had possibly purchased parts that wouldn’t work together, but, the last above was perfectly configured.

从头到尾，整个过程耗时约6个小时，这让我感到惊讶。我本来打算花大部分时间(如果不是全部)将它们放在一起。而且，肯定有片刻，我以为我们要么缺少一个组件，要么以为我们可能已经购买了无法一起使用的部件，但是上面的最后一个配置完美。

And… it booted the first time!

而且...它是第一次启动！

I’m really proud of her and she’s now having the time of her life playing her favorite game at max settings @ 60FPS and I couldn’t be happier because there’s nothing like building your own computer and then using it for the things that you love!

我真的为她感到骄傲，她现在正以60FPS的最高设置玩一生最喜欢的游戏，因此我无法快乐，因为没有什么比自己构建计算机然后将其用于自己喜欢的事情了！

And yes… she learned a ton about computer hardware and software and I definitely consider this part of her hackschooling education. What a win… and seriously fun stuff.

是的……她学到了很多有关计算机硬件和软件的知识，我当然认为这是她的黑客学校教育的一部分。真是个胜利……而且真的很有趣。
