Angmar Da'Kirith	Posted - 2007.08.28 13:29:00 - [1] Hi! In your opinion, when Capacitor Control Circuits rig is better than a Semiconductor Memory Cell? For example, in EFT with a classic raven setup the SMC seems better than CCC and CCC are used and suggested by lots of players.

For example, in EFT with a classic raven setup the SMC seems better than CCC and CCC are used and suggested by lots of players. CCC is better when you want more cap/s. CCC lowers recharge time by 15% where SMC raises max cap by 15%. Recharge rate is propotional to max cap/recharge rate which means that CCC gives 1/0.85 more cap which is roughly 17,6% more cap per sec. -Hobblah

Zaerlorth Maelkor	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:13:00 - [4] CCC rigs get slightly more cap/second, which will benefit you in missions/ratting, but for pvp the extra start cap is a much better benefit than the marginal regen difference. As a battle needs to be about 10 minutes long in order for the CCC rig to generate more cap than the extra start cap you got from the SMC rig,

Nocturnal Avenger The Ankou The Reckoning.	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:24:00 - [6] Assumptions: 100 cap, and recharge time of 10 seconds. CCC 100/8,5 = 11,76 cap/s SMC 115/10 = 11,5 cap/s Thus - the CCC gives you about 2,2% better recharge, but as others have said, you might want to look at those 15% extra cap (in pvp). - Carebear Pirate -
River Myst The Littlest Hobos Betrayal Under Mayhem	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:28:00 - [7] SMCs are very useful if you suspect that you are going to get NOS'ed to death: the extra capacitor will take them longer to chew through while you are fighting.
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:35:00 - [8] CCCs only give you a slightly better cap recharge rate as SMCs but no extra reserves (three of them means +62.83% cap recharge rate, no change in maxcap) SMCs give you a higher maxcap, therefore indirectly also a better cap recharge (+52.08% maxcap and implicitly cap recharge too, less as the +62.83% of 3xCCC but still good). For PvE, where you want the highest possible "sustainable" cap recharge, CCCs are paramount. On the other hand, SMCs rule as the better PvP choice (if you can afford them). Last but not least, CCCs are cheaper as SMCs (same salvage material types, just less of them needed to manufacture), so it's easier/faster/cheaper to get them instead of SMCs. _ Complaint vs whine \| Char creation guide \| Stacknerfs explained
Miss KillSome Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:42:00 - [9] SMC is better now coz u have larger cap, meaning when u get nossed, u have more cap under that % from your opponent. for example: 5000cap on a ship translates into 5750 with this rig. So, if u dont have rig, when u are at 50% of your cap, u have 2500 cap left and if opponent is on his 50% too, that means u have 2500cap for yourself, coz he wont nos u anymore. but if u have rig on it, u have 2875 cap left at 50%, thats 375 more then before..

OneSock Silentia Mortalis	Posted - 2007.08.28 14:49:00 - [11] I'd go SMC every time, but the cost is too high. They need to be a similar price to the CCC, just maybe a bit more.

NOS NERF is today. Having more cap than someone is now a liability. The classic Raven setup is classic because it works. The triple CCC rigging means you get that cap back up there after a boost ASAP (especially coupled with a Heavy Cap Booster). The math is here on the thread, and it stands to show that the recharge rate is increased. Here's my big point - there's only so much shield to recharge, having a buttload extra cap left over after a full shield boost doesn't help, but getting your cap back to max after a full shield boost is clutch.

Angmar Da'Kirith	Posted - 2007.08.28 15:32:00 - [13] Well I asked becouse in EFT a raven with 6xsiege,1 pith-x large booster,1x caldari navy booster ampl, 1x pwanage tp, 1x invul2, 2x rat hardner2, 3x bcu2, 2x pdu2 3xCCC lasts 4m 13s 3xSMC lasts 5m 58s it seems so much to me even in PVE environment (the one for my raven configuration) and justify the costs (I build the rigs by myself :P ), is EFT correct afterall?

EFT may indeed be correct, but the whole point I'm trying to make is that in practical application, you don't need the booster to last 6 minutes. You only need it to last about 1-2 minutes while your shields boost back up (unless you're running a perma-boost setup with a high quality large booster). EFT doesn't take into account the fact that you don't need to keep the booster running past 90% shields or even 100% if you feel like it (I say that because past 90% you get almost no help from your own recharge rate, and it's a big burn on the capacitor) Theoritcal capacitor is different than practical capacitor.

Hrm..you may indeed be right on that one. I'd like to see how it works in PvP, but that makes some sense. I was thinking along different lines - like he'd be able to chew on you longer at the start and that would be worse than having him chew quickly and slightly more often. At any rate, I believe we're talking about a PvE scenario for CCC vs SMC, yes? "Vae victus" ~ Julius Caesar "Woe to the Vanquished"
Rafein	Posted - 2007.08.28 16:26:00 - [17] though really, if your looking at fitting only cap rigs, a combo typically would be your best bet. I would think 1 CCC rig and 2 SMC rigs would probably give you the best results, but SMC's take 2x the materials.
