What is The Elyrian PC Assitance Program?

We are a group of PC enthusiasts and volunteers who all share a passion not only for Chronicles of Elyria but also PC hardware. This group is intended to give fellow Elyrians insight on what kind of desktop system would be needed, to run and play Chronicles of Elyria at the settings that they desire as well as more knowledge on UE4. We will have a trustworthy group of PC enthusiasts consult with you on system requirements for the settings you desire, as well as a list of PC parts that fit under your budget whether it be an entirely new system or a few new parts. (In addition, a PC building walkthrough if needed)

Furthermore, this is not us telling people that they need to buy these things right now, rather it is us telling them either how much they should save around to achieve the performance they desire in Chronicles of Elyria. And if they are seeking to buy a system at this given moment and not in the future, we will provide them with a list of PC parts that has been looked at by multiple people to ensure they are getting the most performance to the dollar for their budget. However if a someone wants to wait later say near the release of CoE to buy the parts, then we will provide them with an updated list during that time if they specify it in their application.

What Can You Do?

First and most important join our discord! That is the best place to start for those who are wishing to help out whether it be you know a lot about PC hardware, are inclined to help the community or are seeking PC consultation our discord is the best place to start. Second, go to either the consultation or enthusiast and helper application text channels and read about how to apply. From there you will be directed on how to fill out an application and the process of selection. Third, hang out in one of our chat rooms, we will have people there to answer the questions you have or to just have a nice discussion. Remeber the best thing you can do is to save, even if you don't know how much you will need just put down a part of your paycheck every month, in the end, it will add up.

Why You Should Invest in a Custom Built Desktop PC

Upgradable: When a laptop starts to slow down, your only option is to buy a whole new one. Depending on what you need a computer for, a new laptop could cost thousands of dollars. That's because you have to buy every single part of the laptop brand new — the processor, motherboard, RAM, hard drive, and everything else. With a desktop and a little bit of information, you can easily replace aging parts without breaking the bank.

More Performance Per Dollar: Gaming laptops are great, but some of them can hardly be considered "portable," as they can get insanely heavy and large. More important, laptop parts don't quite compare to full-size desktop parts in terms of performance. A lot of YouTubers and articles have been made showing that by building a desktop PC yourself instead of buying one pre-built, you get the same performance for almost half the price

Satisfaction and Ease of Mind: By building a desktop PC yourself you not only gain that satisfaction of completing something you probably have not done before. By building it yourself you also know everything that went into it and you do not have to worry about manufacturers doing something to your desktop PC that could hinder performance.

Disclaimer

The information we give you on the amount of FPS you will get at different settings at different resolutions is NOT 100% accurate as no one owns a finished copy of Chronicles of Elyria and therefore we do not have access to direct benchmark tests. However, we get our data from Ark Survival Evolved benchmarks since that is the game that the SBS themselves have compared CoE to in terms of performance and PC requirements, as well as Unreal Engine 4 benchmarks since that is the CoE game engine.
