History[edit]

Won in a sweepstakes in 2018, Bistromath replaced Oz's previous system Degraaf, and was the first of his non-laptop computers that he did not personally build. Components of the system, including the power supply, were used in the construction of Heart of Gold.

Mainboard NZXT N7 Z370
CPU Intel i7-8700K 4.7GHz 6c/12t
GPU NVIDIA Titan Xp
RAM 32GB DDR 3200

Later, Bistromath was refit and recommissioned as part of the Auxiliary Fleet, and refit with multiple new platforms until arriving at its current, standardized AMD configuration.
